Daqin Fusu: It is difficult to start the battle

Chapter 57
Fusu ticked off after the clan and the army.

Staring at the word courtier, he began to think.

It is not difficult to convince others with virtue, but how to ensure that they do not distort their own New Deal.

For example, if they were asked to collect a bundle of firewood, they pointed to the beams of the people's houses and said that this was the firewood that the imperial court wanted to collect!
Fusu has seen many things about carrying the red flag against the red flag.

After a moment of silence, Fusu wrote two lines of small characters next to the word courtier.

Yushi, cruel officials.

Fusu wrote a question mark after the cruel official, because most of the famous cruel officials came after the Han Dynasty, such as Zhidu and Zhang Tang.

The only one living in this era, Hou Feng, does not know which corner he is farming in...

Fusu went through the list of talents in various counties, but he couldn't find the name waiting for the title.

After he sighed slightly, he drew a circle on the word "kuli" with a charcoal pencil.

I have no choice but to train myself... Fortunately, the Great Qin, which ruled the country with the laws of the Shang Dynasty, did not lack legal officials who were familiar with the laws.

Fusu recalled the evaluation of cruel officials in later generations: strict law enforcement, stern and selfless, and loyalty to the monarch.

As the saying goes, stuff a radish in your mouth with one hand and whip your ass with an iron whip.

Use official positions as bait to appease those who are ambitious but not very ambitious; as for those who are stubborn and determined to oppose Qin, these cruel officials need to take action!

Fusu shook his head, criticizing the First Emperor in his heart, if he didn't kill Han Fei, why should he worry about the law official?

From among the students of this legalist tycoon, just pick a few at random.

If it is not used by me, it will be killed by me... and then it will be too late to regret!
Not cheap!

Fusu put aside the cruel officials for now, and turned to look at the word Yushi.

The censor was also a part-time historian in the earliest days, but the current censor is the same as the later generations, wearing a Xièzhì (xiè zhì) crown on his head and picking up lawlessness.

With the support of Fusu, the new censor Zhongcheng Zhang Cang is steadily cleaning up the dissidents in the censors. As for the censors who have been sent to other counties, they will have to wait until December [-]st.

This is because of the practice of Qin State, from the first day of December to March, it is the time for the evaluation of officials in various places.

Fusu drew a horizontal line under the word courtier, which means that these people are available, but they cannot be trusted.

As for the words scholar and noble, he circled them with charcoal.

Although there were no imperial examinations in the Qin Dynasty, there were many ways to become an official. In addition to military merits, there were also "renzi" and "selection".

But the former is the way of the second generation of officials such as Meng Ying and Li Cheng, while the latter is equivalent to the "ju Xiaolian" in the Han Dynasty. You need to have a family background, fame, and wealth in the local area before you can be elected by the villagers.

For example, Han Xin said, "Beginning as a commoner, he was poor and had no business, so he had no choice but to be an official." '

Although Fusu's recruiting order is a meritocracy, he believes that there must be a lot of powerful children mixed in it.

That's exactly what he'd like to see.

After all, everything he did was to try his best to delay or eliminate the uprising that would sweep the world in July next year.

Then, Fusu shifted his gaze to the word Chinese.

These two words seem to be an understatement, but in Fusu's heart, they are as heavy as a thousand catties.

Water can carry a boat or capsize it.

Whoever stands behind this force is the final winner.

It is actually simple to win their support, the labor is light and the tax is light, and the tiller has the land.

For other feudal monarchs, easier said than done.

But for Fusu, it was the best solution.

The financial gap caused by the former can be supplemented by the opening of the Silk Road and trade with the surrounding barbarians.

As for the latter.

Since ancient times, the Chinese have been the most industrious and capable nation, none of them.

They regard the land as a treasure, and when they see the vacant wasteland, they only have one thought in their mind: what a wonderful land, it would be a pity not to plant rice/wheat/vegetables!
Therefore, whether it is the oasis in the northwest, the paddy fields in the south of the Yangtze River or the black soil in Liaodong, each place can support tens of millions of agricultural population.

It's just that for the development of the above locations, what is needed is a strong government.

After all, immigrants who rely solely on personal or clan strength cannot deal with the harsh natural environment and the elusive barbarians.

Fusu put the straw paper back into the box, and began to miss Meng Tian, ​​and worried whether the Huns would rush south before the heavy snow closed the mountains.

……

At the foot of the Yin Mountain, the general walks in the gate.

Meng Tian's eyes were bloodshot, he hadn't closed his eyes for two days and two nights.

It's not because they are worried that the Huns will invade the border.

Because as long as his flag is planted on the top of the city, the Huns will flee hundreds of miles away at least, and send envoys to send cattle and sheep as condolences.

Meng Tian is mainly busy recruiting the Huns and Lou Fanren who took the initiative to join him.

In just ten days, he had recruited more than 9000 barbarians, and there were more than 5000 warriors on horseback, among whom there were about 3000 Huns, and there were even dozens of well-known eagle shooters!
Without him, Fusu's offer is too tempting.

Shiwu nationality, granting land.

Among them, the former is the most attractive to Hu people.

After all, in the eyes of the barbarians, the household registration of Qin people is much more fragrant than the green card of later generations!
However, in Fusu's memorial to Du Zhe, the censor of Jiuyuan County, about the dangers of the Hu people, he only wrote four words plagiarized from Han Xin, the more the better!

The grassland is barren and the population that can support it is limited.

For every extra barbarian recruited on my side, there will be one less person who controls strings under the tents of the Great Chanyu and the Great Khan in the north.

Before there was any concept of nationality and country, Hu people were always mothers if they had milk, and whoever gave the most money would hang out with whoever.

Even under the sitting method, the barbarian will behave like a little lamb...

In Fusu's view, when the time is right, these Huns will be the human GPS for the Qin army to sweep across the grasslands.

The important reason why Huo Qubing swept across Hexi like a wild card was that there were many Xiongnu surrendered troops as guides in the army.

According to the Mongolian son who has been feeding in the dormitory for four years in later generations, in the nomadic age, the winter camp of the herdsmen is fixed.

Most of them are simple cities, concentrated at the confluence of mountains, grasslands, rivers and forests.

In Fusu's view, this is the weakness of the Huns!
Jingqi rushed forward, raided and dispersed the Huns gathered in the winter camp, and then burned their camp with fire, and returned with captives, cattle and sheep.

Let the cruel natural environment bury the fish that slipped through the net.

Just like the later generations of Li Jing who destroyed the Turks, he completed his work in one battle and kept the border peaceful for ten years.

As for ten years later...

As a traveler, there are many ways to make the Huns sing and dance well.

So, with Fusu's explicit support, Meng Tian was immediately busy.

The herdsmen who came to work were registered and compiled, and after the Great Wall was repaired, the Qianshou who were willing to stay in the fields were mixed, and then in batches, the captains of the fields took them to Shangjun, Beidi County and other places.
