In March of the fifth year of Jianxing, Shi Fengyong, the governor of Yue, decided to inspect the three counties of Qiongdu, Suqi and Taideng.

When Zhang Wei, the commander of Qiongdu County, heard that Feng Yong not only had to inspect farming, but also inspect the conscripts of each county, he advised, "Now is the time when the wheat is about to ripen, and if too many conscripts are transferred, I am afraid that it will affect farming." ”

Feng Yong explained, "Now Qiongdu has a population of nearly 60,000 and 3,000 conscripts. ”

"Besides, earlier, the imperial court transferred half of the soldiers from Yueshan, and now it's time to make up for the shortfall."

In the Han military system, the central guard is the strongest combat force of the Han Dynasty.

Zhuge Old Demon gave Feng Yong the right to recruit troops in the three counties, and at the same time withdrew half of the 3,000 troops in his hand, and the half left for him was still for the sake of the seriousness of the Yueshan rebellion.

Otherwise, according to the usual practice, the local military strength is generally conscripted by the county.

Of the remaining 1,500 people, 500 were sent to the grassroots level by Feng Yong.

Now he has only about 1,000 people in his hands, which can barely maintain local law and order.

But the Northern Expedition is imminent, and Feng Yong naturally has to prepare early.

Zhang Wei heard that Feng Yong did not plan to recruit conscripts on a large scale, so he was relieved, and then went down to arrange various matters.

Many of the fields that opened last summer were filled with water and raised for a season, which not only used the fish to nibble on weeds, but also used fish manure to fertilize the fields.

Because of the pasture, a lot of fertilizer can be piled up at the beginning of spring this year, and I chased fertilizer into the field again.

So although it was a newly opened field, the wheat was not too bad, and the grouting ears had begun to bend down, and the breeze blew, setting off waves of green.

Standing on the ground and looking into the distance, the large wheat fields are like a green carpet, which makes people have the urge to roll.

The smell of crops and earth unique to the fields is very satisfying.

"How much grain can be harvested from such a piece of land?"

Feng Yong bent down, stretched out his hand to count the grains of wheat, and asked.

If it was rice, he might be able to estimate it in his heart, but as for wheat, he only knew that wheat could grind flour.

Guan Suoju and Zhang Wei followed behind, and standing next to Feng Yong was the lieutenant chief of District B13, with narrow sleeves and tight clothes, and a pair of leather boots on his legs, which looked neat and refreshing.

"Hui Langjun, with such an acre, it's good to be able to harvest two stones."

Those who can call Lang Jun are basically the first old people to follow Feng Yong, and it seems that this lieutenant is quite old.

"Although this land used to grow grain, but now it is reclaimed after all, and it is good to get two stones, don't be satisfied. In other words, if you can recover the grain in the first year, it is good land. ”

Feng Yong listened and smiled.

When the chief heard this, he was a little embarrassed, "In the past few years, I have followed Lang Jun, and I am used to seeing three or four stones per acre, and I don't look at this kind of harvest." ”

Although the lieutenant chief's words sounded a bit bragging, Feng Yong listened to it, his heart was still comfortable, and he pointed to the lieutenant chief, "What year are you from?" ”

"Hui Langjun, it's the second year of Jianxing."

The captain's face was slightly red, and he subconsciously straightened his chest and abdomen, and stood up straight.

"Oh, that's the first batch."

Feng Yong nodded with satisfaction, "It's not in the barracks, so you don't need to be like this." ”

"Yes!"

From the very beginning, Nanxiang was deliberately disrupted by Feng Yong to distinguish between Han and Hu, only emphasizing whether there was a household registration or not.

Now in the group that follows Feng Yong, there is no distinction between Hu and Han, and it is becoming popular to talk about seniority.

The oldest qualifications are none other than the group of people who followed Feng Yong when he went to Nanxiang in the second and third years of Jianxing, and many of them were even prisoners of war who were registered as prisoners of war.

The most representative is Duanmu Zhe, who changed his Han surname, and is now a well-known dog steward in Nanxiang.

The dog farm under his hand not only delivered good dogs to the ranch workshop and mine, but even sent a batch of military dogs to Zhao Guang in Fu County a few days ago.

These dogs, when on guard at night, are much easier to use than people, and they have good tracking capabilities.

Feng Yong continued to take the lead and walked forward, past the fields, towards the residential area, "How many Yi and Han are in this district?" ”

"Hui Langjun, there are four hundred and twenty-one Yi people, and there are one hundred and ninety-eight Han people, a total of six hundred and nineteen people, and most of the Yi people here belong to the same tribe called the Boshi tribe."

The lieutenant knows his jurisdiction well.

"The leader of the tribe, what is his attitude towards the transfer of conscripts?"

The ultimate goal of trying to move the Yi people from the mountains and forests to the flat land was to educate them and turn them into cultivators.

Only in this way can they be considered to be included in the administration of the government, and become real registered Dingkou, who can collect taxes and levy forced labor.

This involves the question of how to strengthen management without causing a backlash from the clan leaders.

The social forms of the Yi people are different, and some tribal villages are similar to those of the Han people, similar to clans living together, and the leader is equivalent to the head of a clan.

This kind of basic acquaintance, just like Amei's village, is the easiest to manage, as long as they are given land, then they can be allowed to serve as servants.

Some are still in a semi-slave form, and the leaders have absolute control over the lower Yiren.

Even if the land is divided according to the head, the field is still counted in the name of the chief, except that the leader organizes his own people to cultivate it, similar to the collective farming in the slave era.

This kind of tribe, if you want to recruit conscripts, you need to communicate with the leader in advance and let the leader give a certain number, which is more of a test for the chiefs who are delegated to the grassroots level.

However, because there is a famous ghost king pressing on his head, and as long as he does not draw people too much, it will affect the boss to collect food from the ground, and the boss is generally more interested.

Seeing that the Northern Expedition was imminent, Feng Yong took the opportunity to inspect the three counties, so he naturally had to have a good understanding of this sensitive issue.

"The villain consulted with the leader, and he agreed to draw thirty strong men."

"Thirty? So generous? ”

Feng Yong was stunned, this was not a small number for a tribe with only about 400 people, and it was still a strong man.

The lieutenant smiled and said quickly, "That guy is fine, after all, the ghost king ......"

Speaking of this, he glanced at Feng Yong and saw that Feng Yong didn't mind, so he scratched his head and continued, "Who dares not to obey the Ghost King's orders?" ”

"And most of the Yi people used to plow the land by hand, and the harvest was poor. Like now, the government rents out oxen and eight-oxen ploughs, and the land turned over in one day can cover the work of their tribe in the previous ten days, not to mention that the harvest in the field is much better than before. ”

"So now there is no need for so many people, he naturally does not want to raise idlers for nothing, I heard that he is still ready to save some money and food, ready to buy a pair of eight-ox ploughs and a few cows."

After listening to the lieutenant chief's explanation, Feng Yong nodded, "This leader seems to be a visionary. ”

Sure enough, the development of productive forces is fundamental!

If this clan leader can always be so knowledgeable, then he will have the opportunity to accumulate a lot of wealth, and then think of changing his identity, and his next generation will basically be regarded as a local wealthy family.

If the descendants are promising, can have a background, and have political capital, then they can change their skins and claim to be Han Chinese.

Thinking of this, Feng Yong smiled strangely: although he couldn't see it for a short time, it was obvious that this kind of half-slave tribe might be quickly disintegrated by the shock in the future.

After all, as long as they enter the military group of Nanxiang, Han Hu will be forcibly kneaded together, plus the food and clothing are much better than before, and whether those slaves who have been transferred to serve are willing to return to the old days is almost conjecture.

At that time, whether the government will come forward and directly buy personal freedom depends on how big the appetite of the tribal leader is.

"Lang Jun, please look, there is the leader in front."

The lieutenant suddenly pointed to the front.

I saw a group of people standing in front of me, and at the front was a small black man wearing a brocade robe, looking a little nervous, holding a silverware in his hand, looking like a container, I don't know what it contained.

Before he could get closer, he hurried over.

Feng Yong gestured slightly to the trilogy, and the leader ran smoothly in front of Feng Yong, and then suddenly knelt down, holding the container with both hands, and stammered something.

Feng Yong could only understand "My Excellency...... Send ......" words.

The lieutenant explained in a low voice, "Apo's Chinese language is not good. He was saying to welcome Feng ...... Big...... My lord. ”

The meaning of "adult" in Chinese is very different from that of "adult" in Yi dialect, and when translated here, the chief also became stammering.

"I also brought good things to Lang Jun, and this pot contains the good wine that their tribe found from the trees in the mountains."

Feng Yong nodded, reached out to take the wine jug, helped him up again, nodded and smiled.

Ah Po looked at the Han officials in front of him, all of them were gorgeously dressed and exquisite, he couldn't help but feel a little inferior, and subconsciously pulled the clothes on his body.

Feng Yong handed the flask to the subordinates beside him, and asked Ah Po to follow him with a smile.

When I passed by the crowd that came to greet me, I realized that it was all women.

"This tribe, isn't it true that women are also respected?"

Feng Yong asked a little strangely.

The lieutenant chief had a smile on his face that all men understood, "Hui Langjun, this is carefully selected by Apo, the best-looking woman in the Boshi clan, if Langjun has an eye-catching ...... Ouch! ”

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly flew out, lying on the ground and gnawing on a mouthful of mud.

Feng Yong coughed, "Why are you walking so carelessly, don't you hurry up." ”

As he spoke, he walked directly past the group of women without squinting, and muttered at the same time, "It's dark and small, ugly and dead, how can there be anything to see?" ”

After speaking, he glanced at Guan Suo beside him, and Guan Suo was expressionless.

Zhang Wei lowered his head, as if he hadn't seen anything, hadn't heard anything, and followed closely.

Since Feng Yong's wedding, both of them have spent a lot of time in Fengzhuang, and they have seen what Guan Ji looks like.

Marching from Jincheng to Yueshan, although Guan Suo did not indicate his identity, Zhang Wei and Jufu could also guess a few points.

The prestige of the tiger girl, that is not blown out, it is to come out.

Even characters like Erlangjun of the Zhao family can only avoid the princess and the marquis, and the two of them dare not say anything.

After Feng Yong inspected Qiongdu, he selected 1,000 elite soldiers, combined with 500 soldiers from Yueshan, and marched towards Suqi County and Taideng County.

By the time he finished inspecting Taideng County, Feng Yong had gathered 2,500 people, and the army continued to march towards the upper reaches of the Sunshui River Valley.

Wolf Li rode a horse, personally opened the way in front, and sent someone to deliver a letter to the Niu Ministry.

When the wolf road of the Niu Department heard that Feng Langjun led the army to inspect the Sunshui River Valley, he hurriedly led all his brothers and wives to the source of the Sunshui River Valley, and built a high platform, hung the oxtail high, and at the same time lit a bonfire to wait for Feng Langjun's arrival.

In April of the fifth year of Jianxing, the long history of Yue and the king of the Niu Department of the wolf road alliance in the Sunshui River Valley.

Wolf Road expressed its willingness to help Dahan open the avenue and let Qiongdu and Jincheng reconnect the road.

Feng Yong then went to the court and asked for a reward for Wolf Road.

When the emperor of the Han Dynasty heard this, he sealed the wolf road as the king of the ox and the marquis of Yi, and allocated a batch of woolen cloth from the treasury for reward.

At this point, all the Yueshan County was finally peaceful, and Feng Yong transferred a civil engineering team from Nanxiang to begin to repair the road between Qiongdu and Jincheng.

The fifth year of the establishment of the Han Dynasty is the year of Cao Wei's Taihe.

In the first month of Taihe, the wealthy Lu Ying of Xiping County, Liangzhou, heard that Emperor Wei was newly established, and took the opportunity to rebel and kill the county magistrate of Linqiang County and the county magistrate of Xidu County.

Hao Zhao, who suppressed the rebellion of Xiping County seven years ago, led his troops to Xiping County again after hearing the news.

Lu Ying was defeated, fled west with his cronies, entered the land of Xiqiang, and was stopped by the bald Xianbei tribe who moved west to the land of Xiqiang two years ago.

Hao Zhao won the head of Lu Ying, which was spread in the border areas, which greatly deterred the foreign Hu people.

The bald Xianbei's performance was appreciated by Hao Zhao.

Hao Zhao saw that Xiping County often rebelled, and saw that the bald Xianbei was brave and good at fighting, so he had the heart to drive his subordinates to help, so he allowed the bald Xianbei to enter Xiping County to trade.

In this way, the Great Wei is in the east, the bald Xianbei is in the west, and under the attack from both sides, Xiping County will no longer have the worry of rebellion.

At this point, the bald Xianbei, who had been looking for pasture for many years, was finally able to settle down.

When the news of Xiping County reached Luoyang, it was already April of the first year of Taihe, and Emperor Cao Rui of Wei first rewarded Hao Zhao, and then there was a rebellion in the land of Liangzhou, so he summoned his ministers to discuss countermeasures.

It's just that Liangzhou has been in chaos since more than 100 years ago, how can it be easily governed?

What's more, most of the ministers here are from Kanto families, and they are indifferent to the distant Liangzhou at all, so who will really think of a way?

Shi Henan Yin and Guannei Hou Sima Zhi couldn't see the perfunctory appearance of the ministers, and finally couldn't help but stand up at the moment, and said loudly, "Your Majesty, the reason why Liangzhou often rebels is because the local clans oppress the Qianghu and the people in the border areas too much. ”

"The people of Liangzhou Qianghu and the border areas were not only bought and sold by the wealthy families at will, but also as slaves and maids, and most of the grain cultivated was also taken away."

"They work hard, all year round, but they don't have enough food and clothing, and they are even starved to death and frozen to death, so they feel resentful."

"But those big clans, for their own personal gain, pushed the fault on the government, and even led the Qianghu and the people who did not know the truth to attack the government. The reason for this situation is that the local wealthy families are big. ”

"The minister thinks that as long as the local wealthy families are restricted, and the Qianghu and the people are treated kindly, the rebellion will naturally decrease."

As soon as this remark came out, everyone was shocked.

Everyone looked at this guy who was known for his uprightness.

There are even many people who have an eerie meaning in their eyes.

Cao Rui sat on it, listened to it for a long time, and didn't hear a useful suggestion, and was irritable in his heart, when someone suddenly came out, and his words were like thunder.

At the moment, he hurriedly fixed his eyes and couldn't help but shout, "It turns out that even the Queen Mother can't break her ambition!" ”
