Chapter 509: Return to the native land and return to the royal family

Daqian has a complete set of "convincing people with reason" template, which is used to educate all kinds of barbarians who are disobedient to discipline. The great strength of the army and armor made the barbarians fearful.

Even if the location is remote, the mountains are steep, and the roads are difficult to navigate, there are still elite soldiers who can climb over the mountains and ridges, enough to wipe out a tribe or cave village and intimidate others.

Because there are many hills and trees in the south, there are many poisonous insects and miasma. During the founding of the Daqian Kingdom, there were people from Baiyue living there. Many of them were disobedient to the king, and the imperial court often conquered them.

Later, many Shanyue tribes either surrendered or were under the jurisdiction of various states and counties. In fact, until now, although the area of ​​the southern states and counties in Daqian is far larger than that of the north, their population is not as large as that of the northern states.

The imperial court has been promoting the integration of barbarians from four directions, including Dongyi, Nanman, Beidi, and Xirong, into Zhuxia and become part of Zhuxia.

After more than a hundred years of development in the Qian Dynasty, many areas in the south are no longer barbaric lands. Taking advantage of the severe drought in Hebei and Guanzhong, the imperial court moved the victims to the south and began to expand the population of the Qian people.

Only if the number of Gan people is large enough can Baiyue integrate into Zhuxia, instead of Zhuxia into Baiyue.

When the time was right, the imperial court began to make demands to the leaders of the Baiyue Mountain Village. They began to obtain land and population from these people by general compulsion and half redemption.

Those who are willing to accept will move their families to Luoyang or other five capitals, enjoy the prosperity and culture of Zhuxia, and become honorary Ganren. After a few generations, they will be no different from Ganren. If they are unwilling to accept it, the court will 'convince them with reason'.

These cave owners, village owners, and leaders were unwilling to give up their rights and forced the people to become slaves under them, while they continued to dominate. But in front of the imperial court, these people's behavior is tantamount to mantis trying to control the chariot.

For example, will the people of these tribes and villages suddenly feel that they are living a hard life and want to live a better life, so they pick up some worn-out swords and armors from the mountains and forests, and then rush into the village at night and destroy the village? The leader and the leader were hacked to death with random swords.

Another example is that some tribal leaders refused to meet with court officials because of illness, and repeatedly reneged on what they had agreed to do. Finally, the imperial court learned that he was seriously ill, and sent people to the village to force him to Luoyang. His Majesty the Emperor even ordered the imperial doctor to go to see him and make sure he was cured.

Unfortunately, the tribal leader's condition was too serious. Although the royal doctors tried their best to treat him, they still could not save his life. In the end, he died at home because of excessive worry.

Then the tribe had no leader and its son was too young and had insufficient prestige to govern the tribe. Finally, the tribe was taken over by the court, and then the tribe was organized into households and the people were reorganized. It only took a month for most of the population to be moved to Elsewhere, it became a village under the rule of the imperial court.

At the same time, immigrants from other places came to live here, and the imperial court began to organize manpower to build roads, and the place was successfully ruled by Daqian.

Similar situations have happened several times. Several tribal leaders, cave masters, were sent by imperial doctors to treat them due to diarrhea, sprains, headaches and other conditions. Unfortunately, they all died of illness in the end. It has to be said that the level of medical care in this era is insufficient. A small diarrhea or sprain can kill someone.

Seeing that the leaders and chiefs died of various illnesses, some tribal leaders were worried that they would also die from the illness, so they took the initiative to live in Luoyang, enjoy the best city, cultural influence and medical services, and give their children to Luoyang. He was sent to the academy to receive education, worked hard to Chineseize, changed his name to Chinese, and strived to be the first to become an honorary Han. Of course, the imperial court did not always use this method of death from illness to expand the glory of Zhuxia. As trade prospered and Zhuxia became stronger, the barbarians in the past also absorbed a large amount of Zhuxia's culture. There were more than a dozen cave masters and tribal leaders. They all took the initiative to accept Daqian's invitation.

He is willing to give up the actual leadership and military power of his tribe and go to Luoyang to live a more comfortable life. Many Shanyue tribes in Changsha County, Kuaiji County, Danyang County, Yuzhang County and other places also agreed.

It seems that he has seen the power of Daqian and the sharpness of his weapons, and his own tribe is like an ant in front of him, or he was frightened by the operation of killing chickens to scare monkeys, and he was afraid. The censor was willing to accept Daqian's kindness and took the With the benefits given by the court, I lived a comfortable life.

To be honest, if you are a village owner in these hills, mountains, rivers and woods, your daily life is far inferior to that of the Central Plains, let alone Luoyang.

Although it seems that you have a lot of power here, and you have the power of life and death in a tribe, but what is the use? Living with mosquitoes and wild beasts day by day, I couldn't wear silks and satins, couldn't eat delicacies from mountains and seas, and even had a shortage of salt. As long as they really go to Luoyang to live a good life for a few days, basically no one wants to come here.

What's more, if you are not careful, you will have to be taught how to behave by Daqian Tianbing. Why bother? Why bother?

Wang Che was very happy because of the active surrender of these people, so he specially ordered these tribal leaders to go to Luoyang to meet these people in person and promised to give them preferential treatment. The children of these families can study in Luoyang Academy and join the army for training.

Moreover, Wang Che personally gave these families the surname Gan, and then changed their names to Gan, wore Gan clothes, spoke Gan language, and promoted Gan customs. At the same time, these families will be rewarded with a manor in Luoyang or other five capital areas.

Because these Lords of Shanyue took the initiative to join in and fully surrendered to him, Wang Che also set them up as models and promoted them vigorously.

Of course, even so, there are still some die-hards who are unwilling to accept Da Gan's kindness and join Zhu Xia's family. After all, the taste of power is so wonderful that it is difficult for those who have enjoyed it to quit.

They enjoy having supreme rights over their own territory, taking life and death at their disposal. The imperial court treated these people differently. Those whose areas were maturely developed, close to each other, had good roads, and were no longer wild lands were treated like chickens in the "killing chickens to scare monkeys" approach.

The distance is far, the regional development is still very primitive, the roads are rugged, and there are even no roads. The mountain tribes will still be dealt with according to the original treatment, but the court will also make deals with them, allowing them to move from being rough and drinking blood to civilization, and then assimilate them when the time is right. .

The imperial court does not have the ability to control these people now, but as long as this subtle influence continues for decades or hundreds of years, these barbarians who were originally rough and uncivilized will become barbarians. By this time, the conditions have matured, and it is logical to assimilate them into Zhu Xia's big family.

Through this transformation to the king, the imperial court successfully integrated a large number of familiar barbarians into Daqian. It also moved refugees from Guanzhong, Hebei Province here, which not only solved the refugee problem, created a stable place, but also naturalized the barbarians.
