885 Guo's policy focus has always been on the countryside
After advancing into the Korean Peninsula, the Wei army under Tai Shici divided into two routes and swept the land of Sanhan.
Between the ten months and months, everywhere he went, no one could stop the Wei army's advance.
Each settlement will crush the resistance of the locals, kill the leaders of the locals, destroy their original organization, and then occupy the area.
At the same time, a large number of Wei officials also set out from the port of Qingzhou and arrived in large numbers by ship under the organization of Qingzhou Thorn Shi Mizhu.
Along with them was a professional construction team and some necessary supplies.
This is also the planning strategy set by Guo Peng in advance.
Considering that it was easy to destroy the original social organization in the land of Samhan, it was necessary to use the grassroots officials of the Wei State to manage the reconstruction.
Not only to manage, but also to teach these aborigines of Samhan to learn Chinese and literacy, and then to establish villages, start tuntian, build roads, establish basic order, and start to rule.
If you can't fight it down, you won't be able to govern, you won't be able to make profits, and you won't be able to collect taxes.
Since it has been defeated, it is necessary to possess, to rule, and to get everything, this is Guo someone's style of doing things all along.
It was easy to deal with the people of Samhan, and it was also quite easy to destroy their original social organization and some local nobles and the like.
It's good to kill them all in one go, leaving behind those ordinary aborigines who can't read a single word, and it's easy to rule.
Therefore, before Tai Shici and others set off, after the imperial court decree was issued, the grassroots officials in Qingzhou, Yanzhou and Xuzhou began a new round of screening.
Some grassroots officials at the level of township and village chiefs with good organizational skills were selected and went to the Korean Peninsula to start work with their own experience in administering local areas.
The finances of Qingzhou, Xuzhou, and Yanzhou should also allocate a part of the finances to the Korean Peninsula to provide funds for the future development of the Korean Peninsula.
On the whole, the crusade against the Korean Peninsula is the easiest battle in this battle, because they have no mature state organization at all, and they are still in a state of semi-slave society, and the level of civilization is not a level at all.
It is easy to destroy some of their original civilizations, and it is also easy to transplant the Han civilization as a whole.
Was colonization, especially colonization, or even assimilation, of areas that did not have a strong and mature native civilization such a pleasant thing to do?
Guo's ambition swelled violently.
Tai Shici's march was very smooth, and the main army on Yu Ban's side also landed smoothly in Pingguo County on the Liaodong Peninsula.
The ten-day sea voyage has made seasick people have had enough, and they have vomited enough, and they can adapt to the wind and waves at sea.
Finally, when the day of the landing came, they landed smoothly, reorganized their army, set up camp, and celebrated that they had finally landed, and they were very glad for this.
After resting for the night, Yu Ban reorganized the army, and then sent the vanguard general Xia Zhao to lead an army of 3,000 people to Pingguo County.
Pingguo County is the second most important town in eastern Liaodong, with a large population and a large city, but it is naturally not at the same level as the important town in the Central Plains, and even in the eyes of the Wei army, it is simply a representative of low and dilapidated.
Therefore, it is impossible for such a Pingguo county town to withstand the sudden attack of the three thousand Wei troops.
This city was occupied by the Wei army in just a stick of incense, a small number of Liaodong officials in the city were all killed, and more than 200 Liaodong soldiers who resisted were all killed, and the Wei army officially occupied Pingguo County.
Subsequently, Yu Ban led the entire army into Pingguo County, and built the initial operational command center with Pingguo County as the center, and discussed the next marching battle plan.
The current battle plan is, of course, to go north to Wenxian County, then break through Anshi County, then attack Xinchang County, and then reach Xiangping County.
As the last Han Chinese to divide the warlord power, destroying this warlord force is the core task of this operation, after destroying the Liaodong Gongsun regime, and then carry out the strategic plan to destroy Goguryeo and Buyeo, destroy these two relatively mature national organizations, and remove the alien threat in the northeast.
Establish a stable, peaceful, and prosperous Pingzhou.
If you say development, you will develop, and if you say construction, you will build, and Guo someone will not play with you.
Yu Ban has been a general under Guo for so long, so he naturally understands Guo someone's style of doing things.
"General Xia, you lead the troops as the vanguard and march to Wenxian County, and I will lead the army behind, follow you all the way forward, and march directly to Xiangping County, there is no problem, right?"
Yu Ban pointed to the map and asked Xia Zhao.
"Yes."
Xia Zhaoling gave the order.
In fact, the marching plan is so simple, boring, and boring.
Because there are no people on the land of Liaodong in the vast and sparsely populated land, and like the south of the Yangtze River, many places are uninhabited areas, with dense primeval jungles, which are a paradise for wild animals, and human footprints are very rare.
Even if there is, it is the local aborigines, and they are barbaric.
Around Pingguo County, the second most important town in eastern Liaodong, there was a series of farms, a series of cultivated land, and Yu Ban sent people to scatter out, demanding the occupation of these farms, the elimination of the rebels, and the peasants of these farms to be loyal to the Wei regime and pay taxes.
In this place of Liaodong, destroy the original local social organization, and kill the powerful landlords under the rule of the Gongsun clan, you can directly control the land and population here.
And following Yu Ban's back, Jizhou Thorn Shi Han Hao and Youzhou Thorn Shi Xian Yufu will also mobilize some local grassroots officials and cadres to follow the pace of the Wei army's march along the sea route, consolidate and rule the land that the Wei army has defeated, swallow it into its stomach, and slowly digest it.
In the rural areas in particular, it is necessary to send grassroots village chiefs and township chiefs to the countryside to build up the rural areas and build up the grassroots organizations.
Guo made it very clear that the focus of the Wei Empire's policy was always on the countryside, targeting the countryside, not those large-scale historical cities.
The Wei Empire was unsurprisingly an out-and-out agrarian state.
Although it had a developed handicraft industry, a developed business, and a strong military, it was still an agrarian country, an agrarian country that valued agriculture and suppressed commerce, and emphasized the economy of small farmers.
The Chinese Empire was an agrarian nation from the beginning to the end.
Unlike modern industrial countries, the essence of national strength is scattered, not unified, and the small-scale peasant economy is indeed weak and backward, but it has one advantage, that is, there is no key point to grasp.
Unlike modern industrial countries, a few large cities provide large GDP figures, and if a large city is destroyed or a state of emergency is introduced, it will have a huge impact on the functioning of the country.
This is not the case in agrarian countries.
Occupying a few large cities or transportation hubs, or even all the large cities, and controlling the surrounding transportation arteries, is meaningless for this agricultural country and does not destroy it.
Because the vast majority of its means of production are scattered in the countryside, not in the big cities, the largest propertied class is the landlords, not the capitalists.
The big cities are supported by the various products provided by the rural areas, and the development of small-scale commerce centered on the big cities is actually based on the vast and scattered rural areas.
This is also the reason for the weakening of the imperial power in ancient times and the reason for the fall of the state.
The government organization basically stopped at the county, believing that as long as it occupied the county seat, it was considered to rule the entire county, and in fact, the county seat not only could not rule the county, but was also subject to the county's domination.
If we want to develop an agricultural country, mobilize an agricultural country, and govern an agricultural country well, we must penetrate the tentacles of political power deep into the grassroots level, and it is meaningless to simply occupy a county town.
And in the war of conquest, all the opponents Guo encountered were like this.
Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, Lu Bu, Li Dao, Guo Yan, Liu Biao, Liu Zhang, and Sun Ce.
Their government is often only in the county seat, and below the county seat is the powerful autonomy of the clans, and Guo only needs to take the county seat to destroy the other party's government organization, end the other party's rule over the region, and establish his own rule instead.
But is this the real occupation?
No, the key point of the country is not in the county seat, but in the countryside around the county seat.
Therefore, in addition to occupying the county seat, Guo Peng would often ask the Wei army to go deep into the countryside, find an excuse to kill the local tyrant clan marshal, disintegrate the original local social organization, and then replace it with the rural system of the Wei State and control the countryside.
As long as the countryside is in hand and the means of production are in hand, those big cities where elites and heroes live together will not be able to turn the sky upside down, and Guo Peng will have the hole card to change the world.
He constantly used war and the army to win more means of production for himself, to win over more rural areas, to use his power and prestige to seize the localities, and to use the countryside under his control to surround the estates of the powerful and the metropolises of the scholars.
This is the essence of changing the world in an agricultural country.
