Han Shizu

Chapter 1240 Ludoxun Zhi Hexi
"That is Qilian Mountain!" Emperor Liu raised his hand and pointed to the mountains in the northwest direction, and asked Lu Duoxun.

In fact, his question was a little redundant. How the Hexi Corridor was formed was because the desert was in the north and the mountains were in the south. From the moment he entered Liangzhou, the long peaks and mountains next to the corridor were always in front of him.

The cold wind was blowing, and the dark clouds were overwhelming the city, making the whole world seem endlessly dark.Although it is not very clear to see, the mountains in the distance are high and low, undulating and stretching, which still gives people a majestic and heavy feeling. The snow peak reflects some dark light, which adds a touch of brilliance.

"Your Majesty, this is the snow mountain at the southern foot of the mountain, connected to the main vein, and the main peak of Qilian is still in Gansu in the northwest!" Lu Duoxun introduced.

"Where is Rouge Mountain?" Emperor Liu asked again.

Lu Duosun stretched out his hand to signal: "From the official road to the northwest, about 150 miles away is Yanzhi Mountain, which is also the place where the king's division defeated the Uighurs!"

"The mountains and rivers of the Han Dynasty have infinite scenery!" Looking at the vast snow-capped mountains that towered at the end of his sight, Emperor Liu looked very excited, and said leisurely: "This mountain has accumulated too much history, and it has witnessed the eternal history of China. The achievements of the monument are also brilliant, and it also engraves the pioneering and enterprising spirit of my son-in-law of Huaxia.”

Lu Duoxun is a person who is good at flattering. At this time, seeing Emperor Liu express his feelings, he immediately followed his words: "Emperor Wu opened the border, and the champion defeated the prisoner. Both are worthy of being sung and praised forever by future generations. Hexi will always be for me. Soil, since then!"

"Losing my Qilian Mountains will make my animals invincible; losing my Yanzhi Mountains will make my married woman colorless." Emperor Liu said with one hand hanging in the air, "This is the lament of the Huns, and it is also the song of the Chinese people." Anthem of praise! The martyrs and role models are ahead, and now it is our turn!"

"Your majesty is so talented and proud, I can't help but feel emotional when I hear about it!" Lu Duoxun said immediately: "It's a great fortune to meet a holy king. I can only do my best to follow your majesty!"

Regarding this, Emperor Liu just smiled, neither hitting nor encouraging, making it unpredictable.

"Let's talk about the situation in Hexi!" Emperor Liu and Lu Duoxun returned to the Guanlou. , I think it’s good, and I want to hear your thoughts again!”

"Yes!" Luderson replied politely, and then spoke calmly without thinking.As for matters within his duties, Ludoxon highlights his ability.

"Your Majesty, it took only six or seven years for the self-guided rebels to return, Gansu to recover, and the Han to Dinghexi to completely control the corridor. It can be said that in the previous four or five years, the main tasks of the Hexi government and garrison They were all focused on suppressing thieves, calming chaos, and customizing law and order. Until the past two years, the thieves and captives surrendered, the hearts of the people were peaceful, and the law was first implemented.

The minister thought that when Hexi was truly moving toward stability and prosperity, it would be the official start of the seven-year treasure opening!This is also the goal that I set up with all the officials and staff after taking office."

Lu Duoxun's words can be called publicity, and he was only promoted this year.To translate it, Hexi was not stable and prosperous in the past, and the redevelopment and rise of Hexi began with Ludoxun.

To him, Emperor Liu only raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and his attention seemed to be focused on the rising flames in the stove.Seeing this, Lu Duosun continued: "Your Majesty, the great Han's current rule of Hexi is weak in two points. One is that the terrain is too narrow and long, and the transmission of official documents and the promulgation of regulations are not smooth enough. They want to be as strong as the Central Plains. Strong control can only rely on sufficient military power to control and deter;

The second is that the population is limited, there are many ethnic groups, Hu and Han are mixed, and the number of Han people is still rare.Although the roads to Guanlong and the Central Plains have been smoothed over these years and attracted many people, it is not enough.Therefore, the minister should still adopt an open policy and continue to attract people.

And what I think is most worthy of concern is that the hearts of the people have not yet been completely subdued. Including the Hexi survivors, they surrendered because they were intimidated by the great national power and military power of the great man, and they did not have much sense of belonging to the great man.

The next thing I have to do is to clean up people's hearts, and when people's hearts are settled, Hexi will naturally be stable."

"People's hearts are in the belly!" Hearing this, Emperor Liu pointed to his belly and asked Lu Duoxun, "It's not so easy to deal with people's hearts!"

Lu Duosun nodded and said: "I understand! In this matter, I still plan to start from the fundamentals of culture. Under the situation that the Han system is initially implemented throughout the territory, we will carry out unified promotion and rectification of language, name, dress, customs and other matters. I have been in Hexi for many years, and I have seen many Han people, who are still dressed in native clothes."

"To change customs, we should proceed slowly, and we should not act too hastily!" Emperor Liu nodded, approving his starting point, but he couldn't help but remind him.

"Yes! I think that with the foundation of the past few years, it can already be promoted! Moreover, I don't just push it blindly. It should be combined with the local customs and customs of Hexi!" Lu Duoxun explained: "I want to promote it, it is a unified policy of the imperial court. Idea, integrate it into the flesh and blood of Hexi officials and people!"

"Prefect measures! Very good!" Emperor Liu said: "For the sake of the political people, we should avoid ignoring the reality, not combining the facts, and forcing a one-size-fits-all approach! I have inspected many places, and there are many places that faithfully implement the imperial court's policies and adhere to the laws of the Han Dynasty. There are many officials, but there are still too few people who can handle things flexibly under the national policies and guidelines!"

Facing the implicit praise in the emperor's words, the corners of Lu Duoxun's mouth slightly curled up, showing a little complacency.

"I remember, you mentioned the conflict between the Han people and the Hu people!" Emperor Liu pointed out another point.

Lu Duosun explained: "Conflicts and conflicts between Han and Hu were more frequent in the past few years, which is due to historical reasons. In the past, under the background of the complete fall of Hexi, the entire Helong survivors were ruled by the Hulu.

The situation here in Liangzhou is quite good. In the original Wen Mo regime, there were Han people.The more serious one is Gansu. Under the rule of the Uyghurs, the Han people were almost slaves and were often exploited and oppressed.

Today, the Han Dynasty returned to Hexi, eliminated the Uighur regime in Ganzhou, and restored it to the Han Dynasty.The local Han survivors turned their backs and made decisions, and inevitably wished to go back to the suffering they had suffered in the past.

Furthermore, the Uighurs harbored latent resentment towards the great Han. When the yellow bandits invaded and the horse bandits ran rampant, the restless Uighurs were even more subject to military and political surveillance and control.In order to maintain the stability of Hexi and quickly bring it under the rule of the Han Dynasty, the support of the Han survivors is also needed.

All kinds of reasons intensified the contradictions between Han and Hu, the conflicts continued, and even bloodshed occurred.In the past, it was the Uighurs who oppressed the Han people, and now it is the Han people who oppress the Uighurs. "

Hearing this, Emperor Liu frowned very tightly, thought for a while, and asked: "If you don't control it, it will lead to disaster in the long run, so you have to be careful. How did the government mediate and solve it?"

Lu Duosun said: "The current temporary method is to divide the Hu and Han people, each living in its own place, the Han farming its land, and the Hu herding its sheep, so as to reduce conflicts. However, in the process of dividing the rule before, the Han people allocated a large number of This is one of the main reasons for Hu people’s dissatisfaction.”

"In this way, I'm afraid it's only treating the symptoms but not the root cause!" Emperor Liu sighed.

Lu Duosun said: "This is also a matter of helplessness. Although the Hu and Han in Hexi have been continuously merging in the past 200 years, their fundamental boundaries still exist. The imperial court must make a choice, and it is impossible to cover everything.

After partition, in the past two years, conflicts have indeed decreased a lot.Since taking office, the minister has also issued new orders to local governments, requiring states, counties and towns to strictly implement public security requirements and strictly prevent and control fighting.

Moreover, it is necessary to strictly follow the law and regulations to reduce partiality, especially for those Han people who deliberately target troubles, they should also be strictly restrained and not let them go.

On this premise, if we promote the integration of customs, I expect that with the passage of time, this problem will eventually be resolved after the formation of habits in Hexi."
