This is the current Liangzhou administrative seat.
In the first year after taking office, Jia Xu did not rush to develop Liangzhou. He first started to deal with the Qiang issues in Wudu County, Longxi County and Jincheng County of Liangzhou. In these areas, there were many Qiang tribes, including Shaodang,
Shao He, Dang Jian and other parts.
The problem of mixed Qiang people has been a major problem in Liangzhou for hundreds of years.
The Liangzhou area has been Sinicized for hundreds of years, and powerful clans have formed in many places, but the Qiang people still have many tribes.
However, the Qiang people in Liangzhou are different from the Xianbei and Wuhuan people in Youzhou.
Most of the Xianbei, Wuhuan and Xiongnu were nomadic, hunting everywhere and living in pursuit of water and grass. However, a large part of the Qiang people in Liangzhou began to live together with the Han people and lived a slash-and-burn agricultural and pastoral life.
The people in these places have a better foundation to be close to the people of the Central Plains than the Xiongnu and Wuhuan.
By the middle of the Eastern Han Dynasty, local officials did not regard the Qiang people as human beings, and allowed the Qiang people to cultivate the worst land. The Qiang people were the ones doing the corvee work, and the Qiang people were the ones doing the war. In the end, the Qiang people could not return any benefits, and all the benefits were lost.
Officials got it.
As a result, the Qiang people in Liangzhou could no longer survive and gathered together to cause chaos.
Amid the chaos that lasted the first half of the year, Liangzhou also experienced a brief period of stability, namely Liangzhou Sanming.
The first clarification is Huangfu's regulations.
Huangfu Gui, whose courtesy name was Weiming, was from a wealthy family in Anding County.
The Qiang people in Liangzhou rebelled and swept through Weiwu County, Anding County and other places, forcing the administrative offices of Liangzhou to move to the Sanfu area.
Huangfu Gui had an ordinary status at that time. As a meritorious officer of Anding County, he defeated a small group of Qiang people and quickly stabilized part of the situation in Liangzhou.
Huangfu Gui won the victory and hoped that Liangzhou would be stable.
Therefore, Huangfu Gui wrote to the court, expounding the pros and cons of Liangzhou, saying that the chaos in Liangzhou was caused by the money and soldiers' salaries used by the court to quell the chaos were embezzled by the local army, and the frontline soldiers were unable to fight. On the other hand, the local officials did not know how to govern, and instead harassed the Qiang everywhere.
people, causing the Qiang people to cause chaos.
Unfortunately, the memorial was rejected.
Huangfu's regulations were also left hanging.
The turmoil in Liangzhou continued again. In 155 AD, the Southern Huns rebelled, and the Qiang people in Liangzhou responded, causing further turmoil in Liangzhou.
Since then, Liangzhou Erming appeared.
The second Ming Dynasty was Zhang Huan, whose name was Ran Ming. He was from Dunhuang County and was also from a wealthy family in Liangzhou. After he arrived in Liangzhou, he personally went to the Qiang tribe to recruit them, showed his sincerity to the Qiang people, stabilized the place, and no longer treated them harshly.
Qiang people.
Zhang Huan is from Liangzhou and is well aware of the pain and helplessness of the Qiang people, so after he prescribed the right medicine, the unrest in Liangzhou was brought under control. Unfortunately, the good times did not last long. Zhang Huan was transferred away after three years because of his outstanding political achievements. The following year, Liangzhou was in chaos again.
Got up.
Finally, Liangzhou No. 3 Ming Duan Ying appeared.
Duan Ying, whose courtesy name is Ji Ming, was born in Gu Zang, Weiwu County, and was one of the Ming Dynasties with the strongest combat effectiveness.
In his early years, Duan Ying served as the captain of the vassal state of Liaodong. When Xianbei attacked, Duan Ying faked an imperial edict to surrender. When Xianbei was deceived, he directly defeated Xianbei. Later, bandits in Qingzhou rebelled, and Duan Ying went to suppress the bandits.
Duan Ying is a man who can fight!
Duan Ying went to Liangzhou and served as a captain to protect the Qiang, and quickly solved the Liangzhou rebellion.
However, soon after Duan Ying resigned, Liangzhou was in chaos again. Later, Dong Zhuo fought with many warlords in Xiliang, and slowly unified Xiliang. Dong Zhuo entered Luoyang and became a hero for a while.
After Dong Zhuo died, Li Jue, Guo Si and others attacked each other. Liangzhou's power gradually withered and Liangzhou became even more chaotic.
Under such a premise, Jia Xu came to the chaotic Liangzhou.
He was born in Liangzhou and knew the problems in Liangzhou. Because of this, he could prescribe the right medicine.
Under the premise of Liangzhou's overall submission, although the Qiang and other miscellaneous Hus were waiting and watching, Jia Xu personally went to Wudu County, Jincheng County and Longxi County, the three areas with the largest number of Qiang tribes.
Jia Xu took Guan Yu to personally meet with the chiefs of the large tribes in each place.
On the one hand, Jia Xu and the Qiang people agreed that the government would change its past style, stop bullying the people, and strictly investigate corrupt officials. Anyone who has a grievance can go to Guzang County to file a complaint, and Jia Xu will deal with it personally.
On the other hand, Jia Xu promised that the Qiang people and the Han people would be treated equally and would be allocated the same land without any harsh treatment. The benefits and benefits enjoyed by the Han people would also be shared by the Qiang people.
In addition, Guan Yu led a large army to intimidate the Qiang people.
Jia Xu used many methods. On the basis of combining kindness and power, he also established an official school in Weiwu County in the name of the governor of Liangzhou, recruited people from the Qiang tribe, and recruited children of powerful families to study.
Once you complete your studies, you can arrange to work locally.
This is Jia Xu's trump card, with the help of a little benefit, everyone can support him.
Regardless of the size of the benefits and how they are distributed, at least Jia Xu's arrangement gave everyone hope, so a large number of Qiang tribe chiefs and local powerful people in Liangzhou supported Jia Xu.
In addition, Liang Governor Shi Zhongyao had contacts with Liangzhou, and through a series of measures, Liangzhou stabilized.
After Liangzhou was stabilized, Jia Xu began to govern the place.
In Jia Xu's governance, he first selected a group of Qiang tribes who were close to him and distributed sweet potatoes, potatoes and corn for planting. When the distribution was first carried out, many Qiang people in Liangzhou found it strange, and even more disdainful.
When potatoes, corn and sweet potatoes were harvested that year, especially sweet potatoes, the yield shocked everyone.
The Qiang people were all excited.
The Qiang people have already mixed with the Han people and formed a settled tribe, so they understand the value of sweet potatoes, corn and potatoes. Since then, countless people have favored Jia Xu and completely obeyed Jia Xu's arrangements.
Jia Xu used food to win over people's hearts. While governing the local area, he further punished corrupt officials, punished local bullies, suppressed rogues who bullied the people, and dealt with a large number of powerful families who exploited the people.
Through anti-corruption and dealing with corrupt officials, Liangzhou officials have achieved clean governance and the people have returned to their hearts.
In a short period of time, Liangzhou has shown stable development.
There were also people in Liangzhou who were dissatisfied with Jia Xu, and some local powerful people united with the Qiang people to resist. However, Guan Yu personally led his troops to guard Liangzhou. In front of Guan Yu, Liangzhou's power was completely useless and was directly wiped out.
With the steady development of Liangzhou, Jia Xu's control over various places was further strengthened. He selected knowledgeable and capable people to serve as local governors, and gradually brought order to the chaos, making the counties of Liangzhou develop more rapidly.
The trend of military doing business emerged across the country and was involved in more or less various places. After discussions with Zhong Yao and Guan Yu, Jia Xu denied the idea of military doing business and prohibited the military from doing business.
The local government adopted some of the large markets originally established by Lu Xuan in Yangzhou.
Food, salt, and oil lamps, which are related to people's livelihood, are also managed by the government, mainly to stabilize prices. In addition, Liangzhou has built large-scale granaries. Taking advantage of the local stability of Liangzhou and successive bumper harvests, large-scale grain storage has ensured Liangzhou's food stability.
Jia Xu sorted out Liangzhou, and the last person to promote Liangzhou was Lu Xuan, saying that everything in Liangzhou was arranged by Lu Xuan, the Shenwu Emperor of the Ming Dynasty. It was Lu Xuan who cared about the people of Liangzhou and sent the first batch of sacred food and seeds.
It was Emperor Shenwu who thought about the poor people in Liangzhou and arranged for Jia Xu to serve as the governor of Liangzhou.
Strengthening Lu Xuan weakened Jia Xu's role.
Jia Xu arranged it, and Zhong Yao assisted the entire city.
Jia Xu's methods are very powerful. Although Zhong Yao is only a few years younger than Jia Xu, Zhong Yao respects Jia Xu extremely.
Zhong Yao's governance ability is not bad, and he is also good at literature, calligraphy, etc. However, in terms of popular speculation, Jia Xu is stronger. Jia Xu is also stronger in governance skills.
Guzang County, inside the city.
In the governor's mansion.
Jia Xu and Zhong Yao are playing chess.
The relationship between the two is very good. Jia Xu is low-key and looks like a good guy. Anyway, if you don't mess with me, you won't target others. Zhong Yao is approachable and can get along with everyone, which is also admirable.
When Jia Xu was playing chess, he dropped a chess piece and said with a smile: "Yuan Chang, do you know what your Majesty is doing to Xuzhou?"
"heard!"
Zhong Yao smiled, looked at the chessboard for a long time, dropped a black stone, and said: "Your Majesty dealt with Cao Bao and others, and even Lu Dai was demoted. This time, Xuzhou is undergoing a major change of blood, and Lu Dai is too young."
Jia Xu said: "You are indeed young."
Zhong Yao said with emotion: "At the beginning, we in Liangzhou also discussed the military business, and I support it. Only the envoy made the decision to prohibit the army from doing business, but arranged for the government to be responsible for the management of grain, salt and other aspects to ensure that
The place is stable.”
Jia Xu smiled and said: "This is not a new thing, it is a method used by His Majesty. In the past two years, Liangzhou's fruits, such as grapes and courgettes, have gradually formed a scale, and have established contact with merchants from the Central Plains. Liangzhou has
As the industry develops, Liangzhou will get better and better in the future. Yuan Chang, this requires your strong assistance."
Zhong Yao said solemnly: "This is my duty."
After a pause, he changed the topic and said: "However, in the past two years, there has been news from the Western Regions that there is a fight in the Western Regions, and it seems that a powerful country from the west is coming to kill. In this regard, General Guan will arrange sentinels to further inquire about the news."
Jia Xu nodded and said: "I have informed General Yunchang about the situation in the Western Regions and he will pay attention to it."
"Report!"
An attendant hurriedly entered.
The attendant looked eager and reported: "To inform the governor, the magistrate of Guzang County has sent news that His Majesty's whereabouts have been discovered at the border of Guzang County. Your Majesty has come to the county seat with his people."
Jia Xu's brows rose, a little surprised.
Immediately, Jia Xu laughed again and said: "Your Majesty has come to Liangzhou, which is a good thing. I will report your Majesty's news at any time."
"Here!"
The attendant turned and retreated.
Zhong Yao cheered up and said: "Your Majesty, your Majesty has come to Liangzhou. Do you want to inform the chiefs of the Qiang tribes from all over Liangzhou to come and see your Majesty?"
After thinking about it, Jia Xu shook his head and said, "Don't worry, just wait a moment. We don't know your Majesty's intentions for the time being, so let's observe it first."
Zhong Yao stood up and said, "Everyone listens to you."
Jia Xu nodded and said: "Go and make arrangements to welcome His Majesty. When Your Majesty comes, you will come with me to welcome His Majesty."
"Here!"
Zhong Yao got up and left.
Jia Xu stroked his gray beard under his chin, a thoughtful look appeared in his deep eyes. The emperor's visit to Liangzhou this time probably not only wanted to take a look, but might have something to do with him.
