Jiang Wan frowned and sighed silently, feeling helpless... All he could do was to wink Lai and tell him not to act rashly. Walking into the Xiangguan gate, from the expressions of those barbarian generals, Jiang Wan
I knew that this meal was not very delicious tonight, but he didn't expect the conflict to be so fast and so intense.
He has been very cautious.
The plan he proposed now is Zhuge Liang's plan to govern Nanzhong. It can be said that it took care of the interests of all parties, especially leaving a very generous piece for Wei Ba himself, and also taking care of the interests of the Lingling families. He thought that
Wei Ba would be very happy to accept this condition, but the result was much beyond his estimate.
So far, whether it is Cao Wei, Sun Wu, or even Shu Han, the methods of governing the barbarians are similar. Either they are restrained or autonomous by the barbarians. The leaders of the tribe only submit in name, and then give some symbolic surnames.
Just taxes are fine, and other affairs are governed by the leaders of the tribe. When the conditions are ripe, officials will be sent to govern, turning barbarians into households and all the people will be managed, and taxes and corvee will be collected according to the regulations.
.If you can take this step, it will be a leap. Once you decide to do this, you must be well prepared. Otherwise, once these people flee, the local local commander will be responsible and the empire will also
Those who suffer considerable reputational losses will be criticized by public opinion and may even be removed from office.
So usually, from the central government to the local government, I am not enthusiastic about the great cause of turning razor into summer. That is to say, there are not many people who are really willing to spend their energy on it, because the benefits are too small and the risks are too small.
big.
Since the Jian'an period, the world has been in chaos and the population has been greatly lost. Conquering barbarians, Qiang and Hu has become a supplementary method for all countries. Cao Wei wanted to conquer Wuhuan, Xianbei people were cavalry, Sun Wu wanted to conquer Shanyue as soldiers, and the main conqueror of Shu Han was
After Zhuge Liang conquered the Southern Central Army, he recruited strong people into soldiers, such as the five Qing Qiang tribes and Wudang Flying Army. The thin people were distributed to various tribes in exchange for their support.
Sun Wu did the same, but the amplitude was even larger. Now about half of the Wu army are Shanyue.
The strong serve as soldiers, and the weak serve as the people. This is the measure taken by the Central Plains dynasty to make up for population losses. As a loyal executor of Zhuge Liang's policy, Jiang Wan's actions are beyond reproach, and there are rules to follow, and they also take care of the interests of all parties.
Even those weak people who were assigned to various tribes to work as tribes, Yuzi lived better than in the mountains. Although they had some complaints, they would not resist unless they encountered such a person with no surname, exploited too much.
Only when they are cruel will they rise up and then escape into the mountains.
Unfortunately, Jiang Wan didn't know enough about the situation in front of her. If it weren't for Wei Ba, the god general, to support the barbarians, the barbarians might have reluctantly accepted his plan, and maybe they would have to thank him, just as the people of Southern China were grateful to Zhuge Liang.
The same. But now Wei Ba is in charge of Jingzhou, and the conditions he promised are better than the plans he proposes now. How could the barbarians be willing to accept his plan?
His plan cannot be said to be bad, it can only be said to be bad enough.
Faced with fierce opposition from the barbarians, although Jiang Wan was not confused, she did not have a better response. He turned his attention to Wei Ba: "What do you think of this plan?"
Wei Ba stood up and pressed his hand down. The barbarian generals who were about to be killed just now became honest and looked at Wei Ba respectfully. Wei Ba said with some displeasure: "Jiang joins the army's plan."
You can discuss whether it is good or bad, you can make suggestions, and what if you draw your sword at all? If it spreads, wouldn’t it make people laugh at me for being a tough military management? It seems that you will be sent to the school to learn some rules after the New Year
That's fine. Don't sit down for me!"
"Hey." All the generals responded and took their seats back.
Wei Ba turned to Jiang Wan and said apologetically: "Mr. Gong Yan, these are all rough people, don't bother with them."
Jiang Wan smiled unchangedly: "Do you have any opinions on this plan?"
Wei Ba pondered without saying a word, Liao Li stood up and smiled and said, "General, let me say a few words first."
Wei Ba nodded and took his seat again. He knew that he had a good intention, but it was far from theoretically. Jiang Wan came prepared. If he had some sages as a theoretical background, he would definitely
If you can catch blindly, it is better to let Liao Li come to deal with him.
"Gong Yan, following the old rules of Prime Minister, there was no problem at all. However, it is probably not appropriate to copy the Nanzhong treatment method in Jingzhou. After all, Jingzhou is not Nanzhong, don't you think it is?"
Jiang Wan said lightly: "Gongyuan has outstanding political achievements in Jiaozhou. I am about to ask Gongyuan for advice. Today I will take this opportunity to listen to Gao Ming."
"It's not a good idea to be smart, but it's just changing because of the times." Liao Li calmly accepted Jiang Wan's compliment, pointing to the barbarian generals who had already taken the seat but still had fierce eyes and said, "The Prime Minister governed Nanzhong because of Nan.
The prime minister sent troops to quell the rebellion. Those who serve the soldiers and the people are all prisoners, and it is not an exaggeration to deal with them. However, the more than 40,000 people under the general's command were not prisoners. They came and gathered in our great man.
The underlings fought for the Han Dynasty and drove away the people of Wu. They were not only not prisoners, but also meritorious officials. If they were treated in the Nanzhong method, it would be too harsh."
Jiang Wan remained silent. Liao Li's words expressed his position. Obviously, he wanted to speak from the standpoint of the barbarian general, and invisibly he had completely overturned his plan. According to Liao Li's statement,
The barbarians who made contributions were these. They rescued the Lingling clans who were originally ruled by the Wu people. If they were assigned to the clans as troops, they would undoubtedly put the cart before the horse.
"They were originally free and came out to help out, and were summoned by the righteousness, but everyone had to dress and eat. When this country was in trouble, if the soldiers on the front line could not fight with peace of mind, how could they expect the Northern Expedition to the Central Plains and revival?
Han Dynasty? Therefore, treating soldiers well and stabilizing the morale of the army is the most important matter. The plans you set should also give priority to them, not those families."
"Liao Jun's words are reasonable." Zhu Wu slapped his desk and shouted loudly: "If our family cannot live and work in peace, how can we fight with peace of mind on the front line? People's hearts are full of flesh, and we must evaluate our conscience when doing things.
Well."
"Yes, Mr. Liao is right."
There was a lot of echoing.
Jiang Wan was silent for a moment and bowed: "What should the families of each county do according to Gong Yuan? You must know that they are now supporting the battlefield in Guanzhong."
"They support the battlefield in Guanzhong, and their merits are reputable, and of course they cannot be treated unfairly. What I said is just a sequence. I have said that for the sake of politics and the people, we should make up for the shortcomings. In comparison, we moved out of the mountains.
Mountain people need more land, and when allocating land, they should also be more biased towards them." Liao Li smiled, walked to the family representatives with a somewhat ugly face, bowed, looked around for a while, and smiled, "Don't you, either
Worry, I said just now that you have supported the battlefield in Guanzhong and your merits are obvious to all. Whether it is the court or the general, you will not treat you badly. Now Jingzhou is vast and sparsely populated, and there is enough land to divide it, and it will never be harmed.
To your interests.”
The big tribes looked at each other, breathing a sigh of relief, but they were a little unwilling to accept it. According to Liao Li, wouldn’t they not be able to get the benefits?
Liao Li took the plan from Jiang Wan, glanced briefly, and shook the paper rustling: "The general and I have already discussed it. At present, we can take out 70% of the free land, and we can satisfy it.
The basic requirements of mountain people. The remaining 30% will be distributed to all meritorious people. Of course, since the land is allocated, we must pay the due taxes. This is treated equally by mountain people and you. I think
You won't have different opinions, do you?"
The representatives of the great clan looked at each other. Although they were a little reluctant, they couldn't say anything. Could anyone say in front of so many people that I just want benefits and don't want to fulfill my responsibilities? Everyone wants this kind of thing,
But no one has the nerve to say it.
Jiang Wan frowned even more. In his original plan, 60% of the land without a master were given to each major family, 20% were left to Wei Ba himself, and the remaining two were given to those generals who made contributions. The land of each major family was increased
Afterwards, the part that was insufficient was supplemented by the assigned division. In this way, everyone was happy. But now Liao Li gave the seven parts to the mountain people, and the wishes of the soldiers who followed Wei Ba to fight were fulfilled, although the major families
He did not meet the expected hope, but he also made some achievements. Only Wei Ba himself did not get any land. Would Wei Ba be willing?
What did Wei Ba want to do? If he did this to win the hearts of the people, then his work would be too big.
"Gong Yuan, your plan is good, but what does the general's family members rely on to live?"
"I'll answer this point myself." Wei Ba took over the conversation and said with a smile: "Although I'm not talented, I have made a contribution to size. I think Your Majesty will not give me any rewards. So far, I'm not going to give me any rewards.
Until, my home is still in Chengdu, so there is no need to build another manor with reading skills. If Your Majesty grants me a title, I think there is a fief that I can use. As for the division, I don’t have many divisions now, only a few hundred people.
, I think of a way, but I can still afford it. If I am so poor that I have no food to eat, I will go to your house to have a free meal."
Zhu Wu and others laughed: "General, welcome is here."
"General, as long as the general is willing to give him a favor, I will definitely bring out the best to entertain the general."
Everyone laughed in a ball.
Wei Ba spread his hand and said with a smile: "Look, I have a good reputation and I have a place to eat. Of course, if Mr. Gong Yan feels pity for me, please give me a few good words in front of the Prime Minister, and please give me more.
How about sealing hundreds of households in me?"
Jiang Wan was so amused and crying. He suddenly understood what Wei Ba meant. Wei Ba took retreat as an advance and gained fame. Of course, the Prime Minister could not treat him badly, and he would definitely give preferential treatment to the title. But Wei Ba gave these benefits he deserved.
Barbarians, these barbarians are not grateful to him? Wei Ba has not many troops, but these tens of thousands of barbarian soldiers are also his troops. Who else can command them besides him?
Wei Ba was very thoughtful when he was to give up his small things and seek fame.
Just as Jiang Wan was considering whether to accept Wei Ba's plan, a martial soldier suddenly rushed in outside. He quickly walked to Wei Ba and said loudly: "General, Your Majesty's envoy is here."
