Farmer of Shu Han

Chapter 525: an allusion

  Chapter 525 An allusion

  Feng Yong didn't come forward in person about Langli bringing the tribe to join him as promised, and still handed over full authority to Zhang Ni.

   Moreover, Lang Li's face was not so great that the dignified ghost king would come forward in person.

  If you want the ghost king to come forward in person, unless you can reach the level of Meng Huo's response to everyone.

  In today's Nanzhong, it is impossible for such characters to appear again.

  Ghost King's true face, naturally, the more mysterious the better.

  The barbarians in Qiongdu are in awe of the ghost king, while the Han people in Qiongdu are convinced by Feng Langjun.

  Except for a few people, no one knows that the Han official who wears a straw hat every day, wanders around, and coaxes children with meatloaf to help them catch fish is not only the king of ghosts, but also Feng Langjun.

  The reason why he knew that he was a high official was because even in the vicinity of Qiongdu City, there were always guards following him to protect him.

  In Qiongdu, the early rice of this season cannot be planted, and the newly opened fields that are ready to be planted with rice in the next season have all opened canals to divert water, filling the fields with water.

  At the same time, Feng Yong also specially sent people to the Sunshui River, caught fish fry, and threw them into the paddy field. It seemed that he planned to use the paddy field to raise fish for the previous season.

However, when Feng Yong heard from Zhang Ni that Langli had taken refuge in him, part of the reason was that the Yanniu tribe would freeze to death and starve to death every year, so that the number of people in the tribe had not increased for many years. As soon as he moved, he remembered an allusion.

   This allusion is called "Jiading".

  Thinking of this allusion, Feng Guiwang's mind was like a flood that broke a **** and was out of control.

   "This Langli, does he want to farm, or continue to herd horses and sheep?"

  Feng Yong stood on the ridge of the field, staring blankly at the paddy fields reflecting the sun, his gaze was sometimes deep and sometimes exquisite, and he asked in a distant voice.

   "Although he said he was letting Chang Shi arrange it, according to General Mo, according to his mind, it would be best if he could continue grazing."

   Zhang Yi stood behind Feng Yong, couldn't see Feng Yong's expression that changed from sunny to cloudy, so he just answered truthfully.

  Now Qiongdu is on the east, west, and north sides, and all the Yi tribes who refuse to accept the Han have been wiped out, and all of them have been brought into the actual control of the Han.

  Only in the south, Jufu is still leading people to explore the terrain.

   But still the same sentence, the more barbarians there are, the fewer Han people.

  Based on the current situation of the Han Dynasty, as long as the Sunshui River Valley Plain can be completely controlled, it will be a blessing.

  So Feng Yong's plan is to try his best to develop the Sunshui River Valley Plain, and then use the advantages of the Sunshui River Valley Plain to radiate the whole of Vietnam.

  As for other places in Yuejuan, the only way to support the pro-Han Yi tribe is to provide sufficient deterrent force.

  The Sunshui River Valley runs from north to south. Although some places are very narrow, it is very long and has a large total area. At least for the current population of Dahan on the official account, it will not be a problem to toss for decades.

  So Feng Yong plans to use half of this plain to grow grass and half to grow grain.

  If it was changed to a later generation, such a simple and rude plan, such a waste of land resources, would deserve to be beaten to death.

  But such a simple and crude plan is a very grand vision for people today.

  According to Feng Yong's plan, the Yi tribes who are willing to farm can get the land according to their heads.

  As for the tribes who are accustomed to herding horses and sheep, they can graze in other places in spring, summer and autumn. In winter, they can rush back to Sunshui River Valley and use the green material stored here to feed cattle, sheep and horses for the winter.

  In this case, needless to say, the barbarians who cultivated will soon become the directly-administered subjects of the Han Dynasty.

  The grazing tribes will gradually become semi-settled in the Sunshui River Valley Plain, and they are used to relying on the supply of green fodder in the Sunshui River Valley in winter.

  For these two kinds of barbarians, the former can hand in grain as tax, while the latter can hand in cattle, sheep, horses, wool, fur, etc. as tax.

   It's just that after hearing Langli talk about the situation of the Yanniu Department, Feng Guiwang found that this plan seems to be modified for the better?

   "General Zhang, do you know how many Dingkou Yuexuan used to have?"

  Feng Yong was silent for a long time, and suddenly asked an inexplicable question.

"Before I came to Yuejuan, the officials checked, but I could only find out that there were 61,208 households in Yuejuan County in the second year of the first Han Dynasty, with a total of 48,400 households. Zero five."

  Although Zhang Ni didn't know why Feng Yong suddenly asked this question, he thought for a while and answered immediately.

   It can be seen that Zhang Ni took a lot of effort to understand Yuejuan County.

   "Yes, more than 200 years ago, it was found that there were more than 400,000 people in Yuejuan. Could it be that we still can't find out how many people there are in Yuejuan after more than 200 years?"

   "Changshi wants to investigate Yueluan Dingkou?"

   "Exactly."

  Feng Yong nodded, "The big man is now investigating Ding Tianmu, but it is only limited to Hanzhong in Shuzhong. Nanzhong is unable to start because of the complicated situation."

   "So I thought, take advantage of this opportunity to check the Dingkou of the various tribes in Yueyi, so that they can be divided into places conveniently, so as to avoid disputes when crossing the border in the future."

   Zhang Yi heard this, and was a little puzzled, "Didn't Chang Shi already plan to divide the cultivated land for them? How could he cross the border?"

  “It’s not those barbarians who farm, but those barbarians who still want to nomad and hunt.”

  Feng Yong looked far away, and said slowly, "My plan is, whether it's hunting or nomadic, divide the land for those barbarians who don't farm, so that they can't cross the border at will."

  "If there are people who cross the border, we will assist the tribe that has crossed the border and impose heavy penalties on those who cross the border. It's just that the tribes are big and small, so if we want to divide them fairly, we must know the number of people in each tribe."

   This sounds normal, but Zhang Ni is not an ordinary person who can leave a name in later generations. After thinking about it, he thought of the inappropriateness of this.

   "Chang Shi, in this way, although the various tribes can settle down temporarily, as time goes by, the population of the tribes will surely increase. If the areas allocated to them do not produce enough output, I am afraid that there will be more disputes among the various tribes."

  Feng Yong listened, and smiled lightly, "If there are too many people, you can move out, and you don't have to stick to that piece of land. At that time, if any tribe has too many people and insufficient rations, you can ask us."

   "This horse farm, workshop, Dongfeng Express, and the sugarcane manor in the south, where do we not need people? We can help them arrange it. Even go to the sand field to get a job. If you are lucky, maybe you can seal your wife's shade?"

   "Look at General Wang, didn't he come out with General Dangkou, and now at least he has a background!"

   General Wang mentioned by Feng Yong is Wang Ping's clansman, Wang Han.

  As soon as Zhang Yi heard it, he immediately understood. Isn't this just strictly restricting the Yi tribe in Yueyi?

  Recalling the plight of the Yanniu tribe mentioned just now, Zhang Ni suddenly realized that Feng Langjun wanted to make all the Yi tribes in Yueyi fall into a predicament similar to that of the Yanniu tribe!

  Will the Yi people agree to Feng Langjun's request?

   Definitely will.

  Because on the surface, it really couldn't be more fair.

  Divide the scope of hunting and grazing according to the size of the tribe.

   In this way, the interests of the large tribes are guaranteed, because the bigger the tribe, the bigger the place it gets.

   And because the tribes are not allowed to cross the border at will, at the same time, the survival of the small tribes is guaranteed.

  As long as each tribe does not violate the rules of the ghost king, they will have their own backing from the ghost king, and they will not be afraid of others coming to conquer them. This ensures that the big man can easily stand in a detached position and control the overall situation.

   Fair and reasonable.

  But the deep meaning hidden behind this fairness and reasonableness, not to mention the barbarians, even Zhang Yi himself, if Feng Yong had not personally acknowledged it, he would not have been able to guess it.

   I'm afraid that after many years, the Yi people in Yueyi may not be able to understand that they were doomed from the very beginning.

  Furthermore, according to the rules set by Feng Langjun, the Yuejuan people may not even appear in the tribes that threaten the Yuejuan government.

   This is really plotting against others and making others be grateful. If this can really happen, then the ghost king's reputation in Yuexuan will be like the sky.

Looking at the man in front of him who was wearing a straw hat and standing barefoot on the edge of the field, Zhang Ni was standing under the sun, and felt a little chill on his back: This Southern Zhongyi man said it well. It really deserves its name.

Thinking of all the rumors about this lord before, Zhang Ni couldn't help but take a deep breath: "Feng Langjun, ruthless and ruthless, Xiao Wenhe" is really well-deserved, and now there is a need to add "foresight and foresight" Ghost King" is right.

  At this time, I saw two eleven or twelve-year-old Yiren children coming over with a big wooden bucket, put it down from a distance, and gestured to this side, "Fish, fish..."

   Without the permission of the guards, they could not pass. The Yiren children knew this, and stood outside the guards' cordon very obediently.

  Feng Yong nodded to the guards, who checked them calmly before letting them go.

   "How many fish?"

  Feng Yong stretched his head and looked at the wooden barrel in front of him.

   "Two hundred!"

   With a proud expression on his face, the barbarian child stretched out **** and answered in substandard Chinese.

   Sure enough, daily interaction is the way to quickly learn a foreign language well.

   "Okay, don't count, just pour it into that field."

  Feng Yong touched the head of the barbarian child and said appreciatively, "You have caught the most in these two days, and I will give you an extra meatloaf later."

  As soon as the two children heard this, they immediately lifted the bucket to the side of the paddy field designated by Feng Yong with great joy, and poured the fry into it carefully, as if they were afraid of hurting the fry.

  Then happily ran to the guard, stretched out three fingers, "Three!"

   Taking the meatloaf, he ran back and bowed to Feng Yong, "Thank you, sir."

   "Wash your hands before eating, you know?"

  Feng Yong warned, looking like a kind elder, "Otherwise you will get sick if you eat dirty things. If you don't listen to me, you will not want your fish in the future."

"Know."

  Although the child could not speak much Chinese, he could understand it. He nodded immediately, and then ran away with a bucket and a shoulder pole.

   Very ordinary interaction, but also very warm and happy.

  But the more happy the two parties were, the more Zhang Ni felt the gloomy surroundings of Feng Yong, and he even seemed to see Feng Langjun's cold and evil heart of stone under Feng Langjun's gentle and amiable surface.

   "General Zhang, since I arrived in Yuexi, I found that you are not only a leader in marching and fighting, but also a good means of governing the country. I will leave this matter to you, how about it?"

   "Feng Changshi has an order, how dare the last general not obey? It's just what about the barbarians in the south of Yueyuan?"

   "It's okay, let's divide the northern part of Qiongdu first, and the southern part. Let's wait for General Ju to come back."

  The two were talking, and saw two more people walking towards this side.

   Zhang Yi took a look, and quickly said, "Chang Shi, then the general will resign first."

   "Well, let's go."

   Zhang Yi greeted the two people who came over, said hello, and then left.

   "Brother!"

  The people who came over were Huang Chong and Wang Xun who had just returned to Qiongdu.

  Langli brought the head of the Dongqu Qu to vote, and the remnants of the Dongqu tribe had been cleaned up, so there was no need for Huang Chong and Wang Xun to stay in Suqi.

   Not only that, even Meng Yan in the north, because of the Yanniu tribe's initiative to seek peace and return to Hanjia County, has led his army back to Qiongdu.

  Feng Yong nodded his head and asked, "How about the casualties of Nanxiang soldiers this time when we went to Suqi?"

  Nanxiang soldiers are Feng Yong's most trusted soldiers. At the same time, Feng Yong plans to regard them as the grass-roots officers of the Vietnam Garrison in the future.

   "The Nanxiang soldiers who went to Suqi here totaled 500 people, 206 were injured, and 169 died."

   The two of them didn't expect Feng Yongyi to ask this question when they met, and their face became a little ugly, and their voice became low.

  Feng Yong's heart twitched, his chest hurt a little, one hundred and sixty-nine people, the backbone of the future grassroots, just gone!

   "Does every battle come first?"

"yes."

   "Anyone hold back?"

   "Yes, two people were beheaded before the battle."

  Feng Yong nodded, "Show me the list of those who died in battle and those who fled, and inform Nanxiang that all the family members of the two who fled will be demoted to slave labor."

  This is expected.

  Even in later generations, there are people who refuse to perform military service every year.

   Not to mention fighting desperately on the battlefield?

   But this is a troubled time. The big Han is now implementing a conscription system. If it is really his turn, no one can escape——Nanxiang raises soldiers thickly in order to do its best to reduce the occurrence of desertion.

  Five hundred people only got away with two people, which was beyond Feng Yong's expectation. It seems that the system of consecutive sittings is still very deterrent.

   "The home of a fallen soldier, the captain of the brigade he belongs to, must personally come to comfort the family members, send pensions, and give the brand of Glory Home. If any captain offers a slight discount, he will be dismissed directly."

"If the children of the fallen soldiers are under the age of fifteen, let them go to the school to study. If they are over the age of fifteen, see where there are vacancies in the minerals of the workshop and ranch, and fill them up first. If they can't be filled, report to me. Ask them if they would like to go to Yuejuan."

  There will be many vacancies in the future, and there will be a huge gap in the grassroots backbone management and other personnel of the racecourse, and I am afraid that no one will be competent.

   "Also, the population of Nanxiang is increasing day by day, let Xinhou train another batch of soldiers."

   Speaking of this, Feng Yong pondered for a while.

"I heard that the eldest son of Jiang Canjun's family also went to Nanxiang. This person is considered talented, plus that Huo Yi, when the time comes, show them the full version of "Military Exercise Code" and let them read it." The two of you should help, otherwise Xinhou might not be able to do it alone."

   "At that time, I will write to the prime minister, suggesting that they both serve as the county captain of Nanxiang County, which is justified."

  Jiang Bin defended Hancheng when Zhong Hui's army entered Hanzhong anyway, so he should be talented in military affairs.

  Not to mention Huo Yi, the person who can be appointed as the governor in the end is even worse.

  Nanxiang has developed to this day, which has aroused the jealousy of many people. It is beneficial and harmless to mix sand in the palace and the prime minister's mansion in a timely manner.

   It’s not a matter of being ugly or not. Nanxiang was built by his brothers, and no matter how much he eats alone, he’s not afraid of what others say.

  The key is that Nanxiang's status in Dahan has become more and more important. In addition, the Dahan Reserve Bureau established in Nanxiang and the notes issued by the Dahan Reserve Bureau have the ability to cause huge fluctuations in the Dahan economy.

  If you continue to protect and prevent the court from reaching in, you will be too ignorant of good and bad.

   Of these two people, one was sent by Adou in the palace, and the other was from the prime minister's mansion, so it was just right.
