When Pan Geng moved to Yin, I initiated Jian Shang

Axle frowned upon hearing this: "They are not of my race. This group of people are not the ones who fled north during the transition from Xia to Shang."

After all, Chezhu's surname is Si, which comes from the Xia Dynasty people who fled to the north from the Central Plains. Xinqu's surname originated from multi-ethnic marriages, including Si, Ji, Jiang, etc.

A considerable number of the grassland nomads that were taken down this time were forces from the prairie and the Western Regions.

In other words, they are not from the Central Plains at all, and staying here will cause trouble.

"Don't worry, the butcher is ready. None of those nobles, small leaders, and wizards can escape." Dai Bingjia looked down and shook his head slightly, saying, "There are some bad things that Bei Bo can't do. Over the years, that guy has made his reputation stinky in order to help the Xin family rise.

Even though it seems that I can suppress the west now, in fact, the west still relies on the strong support of the Yi clan and the Hijikata lineage.

The only thing I can use is force.

But now, with the northern nomads moving south from time to time, I think it won’t be long before these small tribes who are still afraid of us will choose to submit to us.

Because they refused to submit to me, they were either turned into eunuchs by me or robbed by nomadic tribes.

This time, out of the six thousand nomads, only more than four thousand were captured.

Another group escaped, and they will come back sooner or later.

After all, we are too rich here.

Therefore, it is enough to scare them, there is no need to kill them all, just let someone divide the women up.

Also, you have decided the outcome of the war this time. I will submit a petition and you should be transferred to Peking. When you get there, don’t lose your temper. Qu Ke has a lot of bad intentions. If he wants to punish someone, no one can escape.”

Hearing this, Axle put down his weapon and finally sighed: "I don't know whether it is good or bad to leave these people behind."

"Don't worry, these people will never be able to turn over in this life." Dai Bingjia said disapprovingly, "There are too many naturalized people in the country and too few slaves. In the next period of time, the number of slaves must be increased so that the naturalized people have people to bully.

Otherwise, if the naturalized people continue to be bullied, they will probably become restless.

Moreover, the school is going to implement it.

In addition to military merit advancement, naturalized people will have new opportunities to improve their citizenship.”

Hearing this, Axle frowned: "But if we do this, will it be..."

“Don’t worry, it’s not that easy for a naturalized school to get you promoted.

They need to receive education from a young age before they can be promoted to commoners. Although it is called promotion, it is not very useful. It is nothing more than advancing one or two generations and abandoning naturalized people to become commoners.

Moreover, the annual tuition fee will be a huge expense.

It is enough to cut away the wealth accumulated by naturalized people bit by bit.

As long as they have lost their wealth, naturalized people will have to accept the imperial court's conscription if they want to go to the battlefield in the future.

In other words, the future military resources for the imperial court's conquests will gradually be drawn from the various generals' offices. After all, the generals' offices only have so many staff, and even if the resources are divided, they are not enough, especially the land."

Bingjia sighed and said, "The General's Mansion has begun to be weakened by Xinqu. To be honest, I am no different from those army leaders who are fighting all over the world. The only difference is that Xinqu is both using us and guarding against us."

"Then don't you feel uncomfortable?" Axle was puzzled. He always felt something was very strange.

Obviously, many of Yan State’s policies were counterintuitive, but why could the Yan State nobles accept them?

"So what if you feel uncomfortable? Rebellion? When the military merit system was first established, it was to prevent us. Besides, even if you rebel, so what? No one below can do what Xin Qu did and improve the overall strength of the country." Dai Bingjia spread his hands and said helplessly: "The governance framework of the entire Yan State was set by Xin Qu.

In his words, he sets the rules of the game. He is also the referee. As long as he doesn't do anything stupid, we, the hegemons, will never be able to beat him.

Moreover, he has discovered that the various general offices under our jurisdiction have the risk of semi-autonomy and splitting the State of Yan.

Isn't this just starting to patch us in advance?
Do you think it's a school problem? But the school is not only for naturalized people, but also for children of ordinary people in Yan State.

Previously, Xin Qu gradually lowered the amount of millet and wheat that could be used to advance to a higher rank. After the school was established, he changed it to allow those who had passed the academic qualification process to be promoted to a higher rank in advance.

Once there is no war in the area, will completing a degree become the only path?"

"But is it really possible that there will be no war in the local area?"

"Of course not." Bing Jia shook his head, "I'm just giving you an analogy. Military merit is still the best way, but not everyone is suitable for this path.

Moreover, the weapons, armor, etc. that you use today are all made of steel.

What is steel?
Xin Qu said that steel is the strength of a country. If steel can be smelted well and quickly and used widely, then even if the country's governance system collapses severely, it will still be able to maintain its dominance over the rest of the country.

Therefore, the future civil and military achievements will not be as simple as you think.

He is empowering the State of Yan to transform.

We went from being a semi-agricultural and semi-pastoral society, back to a state, and now to a kingdom. The next step is to prepare to move into a dynasty.

The foundation of a dynasty is never just about military force, but also about economy, culture and politics.

Don't think he is suppressing us. In fact, we are expanding too fast, and the internal situation is not stable. He can only focus on the next ten years. If you really want to maintain the family heritage, then send a few more female slaves back, give them good reproduction, and give them enough education regardless of whether they are legitimate or illegitimate children, and then start planning the subsequent garrison policy.

The garrison and fiefdom system has already begun, and the illegitimate children in the north and south need to be relocated to their fiefdoms.

The more descendants you have, the more your family lineage will be passed down, so that all your eggs will not be put in one basket.

In just a few generations, the family would spread all over the world. Even if one branch was demoted and sent to a remote area because of its sins, it might still meet family members who could help it.

Only by supporting each other can we have a better future.”

"..."

Axle listened to the man wearing ice armor in silence. For the first time, he felt that he, as a general, actually had such a wise side.

Dai Bingjia looked at him and knew what he was thinking. He patted his shoulder and said, "When you reach a certain point, as long as you can survive the struggle, you will understand that your previous ideas are not applicable to the current ecological environment.

The problem that Xin Qu could understand was also realized by many nobles in Yan State who were able to govern a place.

However, few people will directly raise the issue of interfering with the interests of the people at the grassroots level.

Because he is the only one in the country who can do this. After all, he is the founding emperor, and with just one word from him, he can pull us out of our current position.

As our subordinates, once you lose us as your leaders, you will become hostile to each other due to lack of prestige, and then there will be internal strife.

If things get chaotic, they will easily fall apart.

After today's battle, believe it or not, it won't be long before you are transferred to the Imperial Guards, and I and several other generals will begin to switch defense zones."

Axle was still confused and a little at a loss, Bingjia explained: "Since the situation of the Southern Shang Clan began to change last year, Xinqu needed someone who could break the impasse in the South.

My brother-in-law is from the Su family, and the Su family has begun to expand around Jizhou.

I would definitely try to contact someone from the Su family.

So, he will use a bunch of high-sounding reasons to move me away. Once I leave, it will be difficult for you to make trouble. If the trouble gets out of hand, the new guy will be able to remove you from your official positions.

Remember, official positions in the General's Mansion are never issued by the imperial court, but come from the generals.

You are just soldiers of the palace, and you are supposed to go back to farm normally. The new general only needs to say one word and you will go back to the village and farm well.

At that time, he will select a new group of young men to form and train them. When he is familiar with these young men, he will recruit you to serve as officers.

Then those young men serve as your deputies, and you are sidelined.

This is another line of defense under the General’s Office governance framework.

You see, from the beginning when the General's Mansion was established, Xin Qu left a back door. And every general cannot refuse.

Because he was afraid that the generals would rebel, aren't we afraid that the naturalized people recruited from below would rebel?

Therefore, we will not refuse, nor will we choose to stay here for a long time, because the imperial court is very powerful, we have not developed enough locally, and we do not have enough population or food. Once the imperial court cuts off the supply of materials, we will immediately become weak and then be divided up by the four sides.

Therefore, in his framework, everyone is a nail that he can pull out and use at any time.

This is why, in the beginning, many tribesmen disliked him. Being governed by him was hard and tiring, and everyone found it troublesome.

But his plan is so useful. If we do things step by step, we will definitely survive and the future will be bright.

This is why he had to be chosen as the patriarch.

Although it is a bit tiring, what about the future? No one wants to live in uncertainty, and everyone wants to develop better. The Shang clan is not even necessarily richer than us now, which is enough to show that he is very successful.

so……"

"General, there is a letter from the rear, saying it is a handwritten letter from Bei Bo."

"Okay! Let's go!" Dai Bingjia patted the axle again, "Okay, after saying so much, if you want to avenge your Lanti tribe, when you serve as an official in the capital, tell us as much information as possible. Xinqu is worried about the number of slaves recently. If we can't move to the south for the time being, then we can move to the west.

The Bin clan and the Qiang people were all good sources of slaves.

You know the mountains and rivers over there much better than I do."

After saying that, he turned around and left wearing the ice armor.

Watching him disappear, Chezhu remained silent, and finally sighed: "The Beibo I have never met is so powerful! It seems that the possibility of my revenge may really fall on the State of Yan.

But, can Beibo support me?

Judging from the current situation, Bei Bo is a very opinionated man. Can he really lend me these cavalrymen?

Forget it, I'd better read more and learn more, and wait for the sequel." (End of this chapter)
