The last three kingdoms

Chapter 280
In fact, long before Zhuge Liang's southern expedition, there were many Han people living in Nanzhong area. Yong Kai, Zhu Bao, and Gao Ding who participated in the rebellion were the powerful surnames in Nanzhong, and Lu Kai, the hero who defended Yongchang to the death, was also a local gentry.After Zhuge Liang pacified Nanzhong, he also made a big effort to use the local surnames to maintain the order of Nanzhong. Later, the Shuhan court added three counties: Xinggu, Yunnan, and Zhuti, and changed Yizhou County to Jianning County, which was governed by the capital. .

Although it is said that after Zhuge Liang pacified Nanzhong, he set a policy of not stationing troops and not transporting food, but it was just an appeasement policy to appease the Yi people in Nanzhong. To suppress the rebellion, if the Shu Han court did not garrison troops in Nanzhong, how could a polished commander of the subdued governor put out the rebellion of the Yi people in Nanzhong.

Therefore, the Shu Han court has never neglected its rule over Nanzhong. In addition to sending troops to suppress individual Yi tribes who resisted repeatedly, the large-scale relocation of the population of Shuzhong is also a policy requirement. In the past 40 years, more than [-] Han people have immigrated to Nanzhong. , the main settlement is in Jianning County. The Han people who migrated to the south brought advanced farming technology, which promoted the development of Jianning County. Among the seven counties in Nanzhong, Jianning County has a very high degree of development.

This time, 60 million people from central Sichuan moved southward, and the resettlement site was chosen in Jianning County.Originally, Jianning County had a population of 11, and the ratio of Yi to Han was seven to three. However, with the migration of Han people from central Shu to the south, many Yi people left their settlements and moved to other places, and the population of Jianning County increased to 20. However, the ratio of Yi to Han has become three to seven. Up to now, the Han people accounted for the vast majority.Among the seven counties in Nanzhong, Jianning County is also the only county with an upside-down population of Han and Yi.

Therefore, the move of the capital to Jianning was also carefully considered. At least the Han people in Jianning are the majority, and Liu Chan can feel at ease staying here. If he is really thrown into the wolf den of the barbarians, he will really have trouble sleeping and eating. .

Although 60 million refugees flooded into Jianning, for the sparsely populated Jianning County, it didn't seem too crowded. Jianning has a lot of plains and dams, and the reclaimed land is all fertile land, let alone It is no problem to feed tens of thousands of people, even if it is to feed millions of people.

The only problem is Rubao going through the difficult period of land reclamation. Although the climate in Nanzhong is warm, there is no need to produce only one season of grain a year like the north, planting in spring and harvesting in autumn, but even double-crop rice still needs time to grow. , not to mention the tool seeds used for reclamation, these refugees are also extremely scarce.Obviously, the family-by-household smallholder economy is no longer suitable for Nanzhong's production.

Liu Yin took the lead in proposing the plan of farming.The method of farming was not Liu Yin's first creation. As early as the early years of the Three Kingdoms, Cao Cao had large-scale farms in Yuzhou and Huainan. There were both military and civilian villages. manage.Cao Cao's garrison policy fundamentally reversed the food shortage situation in the Central Plains where the bones were eaten by savages, and made great contributions to the rise of Cao Wei's power.

The Shu Han is obviously not as good as Cao Wei in terms of farming. Except for some small-scale farming in Hanzhong and Tazhong, there are basically no large-scale farming, and these farming are basically military settlements, not civilian settlements. .The garrison of Hanzhong and Tazhong was also to raise food and grass for the front line of the Northern Expedition, and it had not yet risen to the level of using garrison to enhance national strength.

The army of the Shu Kingdom has been fighting outside all year round, mainly fighting. Naturally, these "little things" like farming are not on their minds, but now it seems that the Kingdom of Shu must learn from Cao Wei.

In the plan proposed by Liu Yin, the military and civilian villages should be developed simultaneously without any involvement with each other. The civilian villages should be composed of five households as a team, ten households as a group, a hundred households as a village, and a thousand households as a department. Each department should have a village officer in charge. , seeds, farm tools, cattle, etc. are provided by the government, and the grain produced will be divided between the government and the people [-]-[-].

The biggest advantage of the Tuntian plan is that the imperial court centralizes the management of refugees and allocates all manpower and material resources reasonably to improve production efficiency.The business model of one farmer and one household is too weak for a barren South Central land. Only by integrating all the forces to reclaim the land can it produce benefits.

Otherwise, it is unknown how many people will be displaced and starve to death in the mountains.

Liu Yin's plan was supported by Zhang Shao and Huo Yi, and was quickly implemented. After all, tens of 10 people are hundreds of thousands of mouths, and the daily consumption is extremely astonishing. The wasteland should be reclaimed and crops planted as soon as possible. , to solve the fundamental problem.Otherwise, the Shu Han Dynasty would have been destroyed by itself before Wei and Wu's troops attacked.

The relocation of the capital to Nanzhong brought a lot of conflicts in all aspects, the most prominent being the relationship with the barbarian tribes in Nanzhong.This large-scale southward migration will inevitably create a more tense atmosphere for the tense leaders of the Yi tribes. The emperor of the Shu Han moved to Nanzhong, and the shock on the land of Nanzhong is naturally no less than a seven-level war. earthquake.

The chiefs of the Yi tribe are most worried that the emperor of Han will embezzle their land and rob them of their slaves. They can't help but feel panicked. Some tribes are even sharpening their swords. Huo Yi was cleaned up, but you must know that there are still 300 to 300 million barbarians in Nanzhong, which is more than the population of Shu Han in its heyday.The two 300 million barbarians are likely to be the [-] million thugs. If one is not careful, there will be endless troubles.

Liu Chan adopted Zhang Shao's suggestion, but the barbarians in Nanzhong mainly focused on appeasement, and never used weapons rashly.

Therefore, Liu Chan sent envoys to the major tribes in Nanzhong to confer titles on the leaders of the major tribes, and all of them were appointed high-ranking officials.For example, Meng Qiu, the son of Meng Huo, inherited the position of his father, Yushi Zhongcheng, and became the highest official in Nanzhong this time. The other major leaders were either named generals or captains. There are ministers.

The high-ranking officials conferred are true, but the high salaries are not necessarily so. Now the official officials of the Shu Han court can only get [-] to [-]% of their salaries. The plan for the money.

But these leaders don't care, they rule a place, they are very rich, and they don't care about the little salary given by the court, this shining title is what they are after.Having a title is tantamount to submitting to the emperor, so these leaders came to Weicheng to pay tribute to the emperor in an endless stream.

A lot of gold, silver, jewelry, food and property were exchanged for a lot of false jobs. Liu Chan only thought that the deal was quite worthwhile.
