Hengdao Sixteen Kingdoms

Chapter 708 Unchanged

In the past few years, all the energy has been focused on the outside. In addition, Wang Meng has been quite effective in governing Guanzhong, so he has not paid much attention to You and Yi Di, and has not sent capable people to govern it. In the end, it still became a hidden danger.

"Your Majesty, do you want to treat the symptoms or the root cause?" Wang Meng asked.

“What is treating the symptoms and what is treating the root cause?”

"To treat the symptoms, quell the chaos when it arises. If there are thieves, punish them. Kill one to serve as a warning to a hundred, which will have a temporary effect. To treat the root cause, we should modify the policy of the four people, the sons, the common people, the children, and the slaves." Wang Meng cupped his hands and said.

"Dunhuang White Horse Alliance. I killed the white horse and swore an alliance. It doesn't seem to solve the problem?"

Li Yue had already shouted the slogan that all ethnic groups belong to China. The situation in the west had stopped, but not in the north.

"There is water and soil on one side, and the situation on the other. The situations of Yongliang and Youbian are different and cannot be generalized. The tribes of Youbian have been mixed together for more than two hundred years, and it is difficult to distinguish between Xia and barbarians. I suggest that the slave registration be cancelled, and the children be converted into common people in twenty years. After twenty years of common people, they will be transformed into subjects, so that the upper and lower parts can be smoothed. In another twenty years, the tribes will have passed through the second generation, and the distinction between sons, commoners, and children can be eliminated, and all tribes will become Chinese."

Wang Meng is now in charge of various tribes in Guanzhong and has rich experience.

The establishment of four classes of people inherently creates barriers. After all, no one wants to be the oppressed group of people.

Li Yue took a few steps, weighing the pros and cons. Shi Hu adopted the strategy of using Hu to control Xia, and the rise of the Hu people was unstoppable. Even if Ran Min issued an order to kill the Hu, it could not be changed.

This trend spread from the Sixteen Kingdoms to the Sui Dynasty before it finally settled.

"More than 10,000 people in Zhai Bin dared to rebel. If this trend is not curbed, how can the world be peaceful? The strategy of Jinglue is indeed exquisite, but it is not appropriate for the time. My generation should establish it with authority and weaken the ambitions of Hu. Then we can implement it. By grace!”

Li Yue rejected Wang Meng's suggestion.

Each generation has its own mission.

In this era, ethnic hatred is the mainstream, and there is no need to cater to the barbarians in exchange for temporary peace.

It should be the Hu people who surrendered to Daliang and the emperor Li Yue.

Unless their arrogance is eradicated, Yi Di will always remain unruly.

Whoever has the knife in his hand has the right to explain. This is not a superstition of force, but the use of force as a means.

When Shi Hu was in power, didn't he also kill the Chinese people and make the Yi people what they are today?

Why are the tribes in the west so well-behaved?

It must not have been discovered by conscience, but Wang Meng massacred one wave first, Murong Chui massacred another, and Li Yue led the army again.

"Your Majesty..." Wang Meng smiled bitterly.

"Is it possible that Jing Lue is still afraid of these infamy? From now on, the Xia Yi people from the three states will be moved to Huainan and Jingxiang in batches. Anyone who refuses to follow will be killed!" Li Yue looked grim.

Wang Meng was ruthless at the local level, but now that he has entered the Chancery, he is a little timid.

Of course, his strategy is not wrong, but the butt determines the head. Different positions will change your views and ideas.

Don’t these people like to fight and kill? Li Yue brought them to the front line to consume the Jin people and consume them.

This is what Cao Wei did, and the Northern Wei in history also did this. They strengthened the weak branches and used various methods to consume other ethnic groups and strengthen their own ethnic groups.

Integration has never been a harmonious process, but full of suffering and bloodshed. How many Chinese people were enslaved and died in the Sixteen Kingdoms, Southern and Northern Dynasties?

The population of Yi and Di is about the same as that of China. Why should others integrate with you?

Either the Chinese people bleed and shed tears, or the heads of these barbarians are rolling.

For Li Yue, the choice was not difficult.

Under the butcher's knife, they will naturally merge obediently!

"Your Majesty's words are serious. How can I be afraid of a little infamy? It's just that Hebei has been peaceful for a few years. It's hard-won..."

"You are throwing a trap. How can everything go smoothly in the world? If you don't destroy it, you won't establish it. If you destroy it, you will establish it. My generation only needs to establish power and suppress it, while showing kindness is the matter of the next generation." Li Yue turned his eyes to Li Jian, who was listening silently. .

"I understand." Wang Meng nodded.

"I also understand that I am willing to go to pacify Hebei this time." Li Jian cupped his hands and said. "Don't go into this muddy water. Daliang needs a prince with a reputation for kindness." Li Yue said with a smile.

"Father..." Li Jian's eyes were filled with emotion.

Li Yue waved his hand, "But kindness also needs to be divided between people and time. You must not be burdened by the word kindness."

"My son, I know."

"I ordered Zhang Hao to lead 10,000 infantry and cavalry to defeat Zhai Bin within a month, and all those who participated in the rebellion were to be killed. The migration to Hebei is in charge of Jing Luo. The prince is stationed in Luoyang. I will lead the troops north to meet with Tuoba Shi. Wing Jian.”

"Take your orders." The two of them held their hands.

Ten thousand cavalry could defeat a mob of more than ten thousand, with the help of the local army, so Zhang Hao could pack up and return to his hometown to retire.

Zhai Bin's rebellion was a backlash against the Yi Di people who had suppressed them for many years.

If it cannot be pacified quickly, it will inspire others to follow suit. Hebei will then fall into chaos, and Heiyun soldiers will be even more exhausted.

However, Li Yue also made two preparations, and Wang Meng led 20,000 soldiers into Xiangguo to prepare for the next great migration.

These days, nothing can be accomplished without a knife.

The army gathered, and Zhang Hao's 10,000 troops went first, "Hahaha, don't worry, Your Majesty, if you can't kill all those thieves, I will chop off my own head!"

"With your words, I feel relieved." Li Yue liked his butcher character. Others would be tired, but he was always in high spirits.

It is as if all the desire for women has been transferred to killing.

Zhang Hao has also become Daliang's sharpest knife.

After sending Zhang Hao away, Li Yue himself led his troops northward.

Zhai Bin raised his troops, and Tuoba Shi Yijian also became active. The 70,000-strong army left Tanhan Mountain and arrived in Yunzhong, quite intent on watching the provocation in the Central Plains.

However, upon seeing Li Yue heading north in great fanfare, he retreated a hundred miles overnight.

Li Yue suddenly felt dumbfounded. Tuoba Shi Yijian's temperament, which was cowardly, useless and eager to have sex, was too much like a certain kind of dog from later generations.

But precisely because of this kind of temperament, it is easy to defeat him, but it is not so easy to completely eliminate him.

After more than ten days of rapid march, 20,000 horsemen rushed to Yunzhong Shengle City.

News also came from the east.

Zhang Hao is worthy of being the number one butcher in Daliang. After riding 10,000 troops to Zhongshan, he cut through the mess with a sharp knife. In five large and small battles, the blood of the rebels flowed into rivers. They died under his butcher knife one after another. Thirteen thousand were reported to the police. More than a thousand people...

Zhai Bin also set up ambushes and tried all kinds of tricks, but in the face of absolute strength, these were all struggles before death.

In less than half a month, the heads of Zhai Bin's entire clan were on their way to Yunzhong.

After Zhang Hao's sword was struck, Hebei immediately became peaceful. Wang Meng's army left the country of Xiang and patrolled all parts of Youzhou from west to east. The tribes were more respectful than ever before, crying and shouting in response to the imperial court's relocation policy.

Not only did these Yi and Di become obedient, but all the powerful men in Youzhou were also extremely obedient, killing cattle and sheep to reward the Liang army officers and soldiers.

Of course, there are also those who do not cooperate, adding a touch of blood to the land of Youzhou.
