Three Kingdoms: Ancestors of the Han Dynasty

Chapter 73
Yang Hong couldn't figure out what Zhuge Liang meant, so he cupped his hands and asked, "I don't know what the prime minister means?"

After Zhuge Liang pondered for a while, he tapped on the table and said: "I want to set up a weir officer in Du'an County and move more than a thousand soldier households to this county. The soldier households who live in this county will serve as weir officials for generations. I don't know what Ji Xiu wants?"

Yang Hong thought about Zhuge Liang's move to set up Du'an County near Dujiangyan before, and understood that Zhuge Liang had already made this arrangement.

But Yang Hong was a little hesitant about the thousands of military households and replied: "Prime Minister, are there too many thousand military households, and it may not be easy to move more than a thousand military households at one time."

Zhuge Liang shook his head and said slowly: "Ji Xiu only knows one thing, but not the other; if he only wants to maintain Dujiangyan, why is it so troublesome, does Ji Xiu know about the recent struggle for river water by the powerful in Western Shu?"

Yang Hong nodded silently.The tyrants of Western Shu are close to the Qiang barbarians in the west. Over the years, they have developed the habit of fighting fiercely. Coupled with the long-term struggle for water, the people of Western Shu have resentment against each other.During Liu Zhang's reign, the officials were mediocre and ignored them. Now, if they are not punished with strict laws, there is no way to correct the atmosphere.

Zhuge Liang sneered and said, "The thousand or more military households are here to deter the tyrants in Western Shu. After that, water must be used in accordance with the laws of the country. Anyone who competes for water will be punished."

"The Prime Minister is wise. I don't know who will be in charge of the thousands of military households." Yang Hong clasped his hands and replied.

"I don't know what the country's opinion is?" Zhuge Liang asked deliberately, seeing that Liu Chan was not expressing his opinion.

"The county magistrate can be in charge. I wonder what Xiangfu thinks?" Liu Chan replied directly without refusing.

"Ji Xiu can sign and issue the official document." Zhuge Liang lightly shook his feather fan and said lightly.

Hearing the order, Yang Hong saw that Liu Chan and Zhuge Liang had an important discussion, so he saluted and prepared to withdraw.

"Wait a minute, Jixiu, you and the others drafted a creed for protecting the weir and gave it to me. The annual dredging time, content, and excavation depth must be recorded in detail. After I sign it, it will be issued in Du'an County. " Zhuge Liang stopped Yang Hong and ordered.

"No." Yang Hong was ordered to retreat.

After finishing his business, Zhuge Liang bowed his hands to Liu Chan and said, "I'm afraid the country is not here just for farming, is it?"

Liu Chan put down the teacup in his hand and said with a smile: "The one who knows me is also Xiangfu! Xiangfu may as well guess, why did I find Xiangfu?"

"I'm afraid I can't figure out the heart of the country, so please show me your Majesty." After thinking for a while, Zhuge Liang pretended not to know.

"I think about the matter in Nanzhong. There are many Qiang people in the west of the Han Dynasty, and the cóng people in the east occupy the land of Sanba in the east. I just don't know how to manage it?" Liu Chan said to Zhuge Liang seriously.

Zhuge Liang stopped his feather fan, frowned and thought about Liu Chan's words. Since the Han Dynasty came to power, he had followed the policy of "harmonizing the Rong in the west and pacifying the barbarians in the south". Could it be that his policy of governing the barbarians made His Majesty dissatisfied.

Zhuge Liang raised his head and cupped his hands and said in a deep voice: "In the country, during the time of Emperor Huanling of the Later Han Dynasty, the government and the people regarded the barbarians as people who were alienated, and used methods such as "punishing the world with power" and "killing the leftovers to eliminate future troubles" against the barbarians. Barbarians from all directions are rebelling."

"The battle between the Later Han and the Qiang people lasted for hundreds of years in Liangzhou and Longyou."

"During the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the people of Qu County responded to the Yellow Turban Rebellion and killed officials, and the later Han court suppressed it several times to no avail."

"Previously, the officials sent to Nanzhong unscrupulously searched for local wealth. At that time, the court said that the officials in Nanzhong could be rich for many generations, and some officials were even rich for ten generations. The scholars and barbarians in Nanzhong can not rebel, and the ministers have a peace of mind. , can help Nanyi."

"The country must not repeat the same mistakes. When the ancestors founded the country, they relied on the Qiang and Jian people to fight against Xiang Yu; therefore, the former Han prospered, and the later Han declined. I hope the country will think twice!" More" policy, quickly dissuaded.

Seeing that Zhuge Liang misunderstood the meaning, Liu Chan signaled him to stand up. Liu Chan and Zhuge Liang walked to a map of Yizhou hanging in the center of the meeting hall.

Liu Chan surrounded the four counties of Badi on the map of Yizhou with his hands, including Fuling County, Brazil County, and Badong County, and smiled at Zhuge Liang: "I don't agree with Qing's opinion. Xiangfu lures people to join the army for profit, so Very good!"

"But what I'm thinking about is that there are so many barbarians here, it's a pity that they can't be used by big men!" Liu Chan said with emotion.

"The country has a plan to accept the barbarian people!" Zhuge Liang asked, clasping his hands.

Liu Chan was not in a hurry to announce the policy, but told about the situation of the local barbarians.

"The area from Dangqu in Brazil County to Langzhong in Ba County is occupied by scorpion people, also known as 'Banxi Man'."

"In Fuling County and its surrounding areas, there are Ju people entrenched, also known as 'Lǐn Junman'. There is a feud between the Banman and the Junman, and they have been attacked for hundreds of years, and the Junman retreated to Fuling County."

"From Qianwei County to Yanjiang (a tributary of the Wujiang River) in Fuling County, there are people living in the scorpions and scorpions. They have no rulers, and they live in caves."

Zhuge Liang nodded slowly, this was a situation he was familiar with, even he knew that there was a feud between Banchuman and Linjunman.

"The Banchuman is also known as 'Baihu Fuyi' because of hunting the white tiger; the Lin Junman, when beating drums to sacrifice, worships the white tiger and thinks he is the successor of the white tiger. This is the interesting point of the two mankind."

"However, the hostility between the two tribes was not simply a matter of the white tiger. It was the result of Qin's efforts to govern the remnant people of the Ba Kingdom after the Qin Dynasty destroyed Ba and Shu. In ancient times, the country of Qin was named the Marquis of the country of Ba."

"After the destruction of the Ba Kingdom, the remnants of the Ba Kingdom endangered the land of Shu and killed more than a thousand people. They were defeated by the Jin people. Later, the lords and barbarians rebelled from time to time, and they were all put down by the Jin people. Then Qin and the Jin people carved stones as an alliance. 'When Qin invades barbarians, you lose a pair of yellow dragons; when barbarians invade Qin, you lose a cup of sake.'”

"In the state of Qin, where the laws are so strict, even if a concubine kills a Qin person, he may not be sentenced to death. The concubine is also different from the Qin. The people were the forwards, and after the war, the Banchu Man was exempted from taxes."

"When Gaozu conquered the world, he was assisted by the Jin people. The people who were 60 to 1 years old fought with swords on the battlefield. Later Hanzhong suffered a great famine, and a large number of hungry people went to Badi and Shu where the Jin people lived. Gaozu said The emperor issued an edict to exempt the rent and tax of the seven surnames 'E, Luo, Pu, Zan, Du, Xi, and Gong' who have made great contributions, and the rest of the people are only taxed by Han people by 3/[-]."

"Xian Ren has kindness to me, how can I forget it now!" Liu Chan waved his sleeves and said to the map.

Of course, Liu Chan selectively forgot about the fact that the seven surnames of the Yi people, Yi Wang Puhu, and Du Yi (huò), the Marquis of Yi, led the people and Bayi to attach themselves to Cao Cao during the Hanzhong War.

"I don't know how the country is going to treat the poor people?" Zhuge Liang heard what Liu Chan meant, and asked with his hands clasped.
