Chapter 286: Eldest Sun Wuji's Clever Strategy

、、、、、、、、、、

"Haha! I knew that Lord Yu would be my friend! Yu Ming also showed a knowing smile. In fact, the relationship between him and Yu Shiji is not very good, and Yu Shiji framed him when Yushu was alive before. But now in the DPRK, the Yu family has been basically excluded from the power system, and the Pei family has become a dominant family, as the representative of the Jiangnan Shi clan, Yu Shiji, naturally has a lot of contradictions with the Pei family, and urgently needs to find allies.

Of course, Yu Ming's words that touched Yu Shiji the most were to warn him not to hang on the tree of the Sui Dynasty after leaving a note for himself.

Yu Shiji was born in Nanchen, there were several big families in the Southern Dynasty, and these family brothers were more important to their families than the country, and for the Sui Dynasty that destroyed Nanchen, he was just an official who adapted to the situation, and he didn't have any feelings at all. Now that he heard Yu Ming say this, he also felt that he should think more about it, and not offend everyone.

After Yu Shiji returned to the Eastern Capital, taking advantage of Yang Guang's eagerness to go north to attack the Turks, Xiao took advantage of the interests and finally persuaded Yang Guang to move all the families of the Liaodong Army to Liaodong, so that Yuming and all the Liaodong Army were relieved and could develop with peace of mind. Of course, that's all for later.

……

After Yu Shiji left again, Yuming received a recital from Wei Zheng, saying that because he was not worried about the eldest grandson Wuji, he went to Jihe Silla to check the situation in the two places, and now he has some feelings about the governance plan of the eldest grandson Wuji, so he wants to communicate with himself.

When Yu Ming saw this recital, he also thought in his heart, secretly wondering if the eldest grandson Wuji had no experience in internal affairs, so what was wrong with Jihe Silla? He didn't dare to be careless, so he hurriedly summoned Wei Zheng and interrogated him in detail about his journey to Jihe Silla.

"Marshal, the seat of the county seat of Silla and Je counties is quite stable, but the conflicts in the cities in other parts of the two counties are intensifying, and there are protests and armed fights in various places." Wei Zheng said with a smile.

"What? How did this happen? Didn't the eldest grandson Wuji formulate a response to this situation? When Yu Ming heard this, he almost squirted out the tea in his mouth. He never expected such a serious situation.

At this time, Wei Zheng clasped his hands into fists and said: "Marshal, this situation is caused by the policy formulated by Lord Changsun, and he deliberately did it, saying that only in this way can we quickly win over the hearts of the people of Jihe and Silla without losing a lot of troops and financial resources, and make their hearts turn to Liaodong." Although it seems to be a little tense in the early stage, the situation in the two counties can be quickly calmed down in the later stage, and it can become a stable territory like the four counties of Liaodong! ”

"Oh? There is such a thing! Then you come quickly, what is the purpose of the eldest grandson Wuji doing this? Yu Ming must have been interested.

Wei Zhengfang said eloquently: "Actually, the policy of Lord Changsun, in his words, is still eight words - 'Conquer the raze with raze, and then collect his heart!'" ’……”

Then, he told Yuming in detail about the plan of the eldest grandson Wuji, and when discussing in the county town of Silla, the plan proposed by the eldest grandson Wuji also caused a lot of controversy, and it was the eldest grandson Wuji who raised his identity as Yuming's uncle and got the full authorization of the marshal, so he carried it out despite public opinion.

The core idea of Changsun Wuji's plan is to divide the two counties of Ji and Silla into two regions, one is the area directly administered by the camp in Liaodong, and implements a military management policy similar to that of the four counties in Liaodong at the beginning. The local officials were mainly Han Chinese and natives who married into Han Chinese. The garrison was dominated by the Liaodong Army.

The other area was entrusted to the former indigenous officials of Silla and Jes. All the officers and soldiers were former Silla and Ji officials and soldiers. Of course, nominally delegated governance, these officials and garrison generals were actually selected by the county guards. Specifically, it was selected by the eldest grandson Wuji based on the information collected from previous officials of the two countries.

However, the indigenous officials and soldiers selected by the eldest grandson Wuji this time were very strange, and none of the local officials who performed well and were honest and honest were selected, and all these officials with strong ability were sent to serve in the areas directly managed by the Liaodong Xingying. He chose bureaucrats who had a bad reputation in the local area, and were suspected of corrupt and tyrannical expropriation. The soldiers selected are also some ruffians, and they often have a record of fighting and causing trouble in violation of discipline.

Think about it, how can these officials and soldiers, governing one side, do a good job? Originally, the Liaodong camp asked for a tax of one penny, but they immediately added it to two pennies, and the other penny was naturally to fill their pockets. Moreover, the local villagers robbed the women of the people, and did all kinds of evil, so that the local surnames complained and were dissatisfied.

As a result, the people of Jihe Silla, who were originally dissatisfied with the Liaodong Army. When they fled to the areas governed by the indigenous officials of their own people, they found that their situation was much worse than that of the areas directly administered by the camp in Liaodong.

Although the armor protection system established by the Liaodong Xingying restricted the freedom of life, at least there was no need for food and clothing. As a result, many people fled back.

And the people, who were forced to stand it by the local officials and soldiers, were divided into two factions.

One faction was more moderate, petitioning the county guards and local officials to demand that the camp should also be directly managed.

The other faction simply rose up, rebelled against ****, and launched an uprising, which gave local officials a headache.

Therefore, now there is a very strange scene in the six counties of Liaodong. To the north of the Datong River, the four counties that have been implementing the armor protection system for two years are a scene of singing and dancing, and the people can live and work in peace and contentment.

On the other hand, the area of Jihe Silla, which was directly governed by indigenous officials, was rife with banditry, uprisings and rebellions, displacement of the people, and resentment against the officials of the tribe.

"This doesn't get out of hand, right?" Hearing that the situation on the Korean Peninsula had become like this, Yu Ming still asked with some unease.

"Marshal, please rest assured, now the people of Ji and Silla have asked us to implement direct management in the Liaodong camp, and many people have even directly asked for the appointment of Han people to be the parents and officials, and their popular attachment is even greater than that of Goryeo and Khitan, which we thought were well sinicized. Lord Changsun intends to officially announce that the entire territory of Jihe Silla will be under the direct management of Liaodong Xingying after next month. The indigenous officials of the former two countries will only be responsible for rituals and ceremonies, and will no longer be involved in governing the local government. Wei Zheng said hurriedly.

After hearing this, Yu Ming nodded slightly and said, "Then how long do you estimate it will take to completely settle down and fully integrate Jihe Silla into our Central Plains territory?" ”

Wei Zheng replied: "According to the meaning of the eldest grandson, this has to be done step by step. The first step is to implement the same laws, currency, official language, and education system as our Central Plains in Jeho Silla, which will be implemented after the first month of next year. It is estimated that there will not be much resistance, and it is already the support of the people! ”

"The second step is to completely change the language, demographics, and customs of these two counties to make them consistent with the rest of the country. This requires encouraging the local population to learn Chinese, which will make a chapter in the recruitment of soldiers and workers, and the selection of officials, stipulating that only those who can speak Chinese will be recruited, and encouraging them to learn on their own; In addition, it is necessary to make it mandatory for all local children to be included in schools to learn Chinese......"

"The first step is to migrate to the local area, and the climate of Jihe Silla is humid and hot, the land is fertile, and the resources are abundant. Our Central Plains is now rampant with banditry, the people are struggling to make a living, and there are many displaced people, so it is just the right time to recruit domestic peasants to emigrate to Jihe Silla......"

Wei Zheng's mouth was also a little dry at this time, and after he took a sip of tea, he continued: "Lord Changsun predicts that if everything goes well, in five years, Jihe Silla will be firmly integrated into the territory of Liaodong Xingying, and it will also be a rich territory that continuously generates taxes, soldiers, and food!" ”

After hearing this, Yu Ming was also a little surging and excited. If China had incorporated the Korean Peninsula into its territory during the Sui and Tang dynasties, where would there still be the territorial disputes in Changbai Mountain, and where would there still be the detention of Chinese fishermen by the Han police?

World history is actually a history of conquest of the jungle, and Western countries are the brightest countries in the world in modern history. But will they teach righteousness and morality to the Indians and the natives of Asia, Africa and Latin America?

The United States is the most democratic country in modern times, right? But they will not be benevolent to Yugoslavia, Afghanistan, or Iraq, because these countries threaten their interests.

When China was strong in history, it did not eliminate the enemies that threatened its national interests, or potential enemies, but instead rested on its laurels and talked about benevolence, righteousness and morality to weak countries. After all, no country can guarantee that it will always be strong.

Like Japan, it has been submissive to China for thousands of years, but when it becomes stronger, it will still raise its butcher's knife against China and launch the First Sino-Japanese War and the War of Aggression against China, which will bring great disasters to China. Japan is only a small country of 170,000 square kilometers. Tianzhu, Dashi, and Turkic are all larger in size and population than Japan, and who can guarantee that in the long course of history that has changed, they will not miraculously rise up and pose a major threat to China? The pace of external expansion cannot be stopped, and when a nation loses the spirit of external expansion and enterprising, it can only be gradually conquered by other nations and countries.

Thinking of this, Yu Ming also smiled slightly: "I am completely in favor of this, although it will take time for all this to be fully implemented, and the future conquests of Turkic, Tubo, Nanzhao and other countries cannot even be completed by our generation, and it must be left to the next generation to complete." However, we have to set an ambitious goal: to destroy all potential enemies and create a better living space for future generations! ”

After Wei Zheng heard this, he was also a little excited, and hurriedly clasped his hands into fists and said: "My subordinates must do their best to serve the marshal to the death!" ”
