Chapter 634. Xianbei, past tense!
This night, it was like a farce!
Half of Guihua City was destroyed in the riots, almost all the shops were looted and destroyed, and more than 4,000 Xianbei people, Han Chinese, and Western Regions people were killed and wounded in the conflict, including more than 1,700 Xianbei thugs who were killed in the battle of the villa area.
However, the chaotic Xianbei riot came to an abrupt end with the roar of Wang's crossbow, and in an instant, the old Xianbei ruling pattern also collapsed!
Nearly 30,000 people from the other Xianbei Tuoba tribe and the three related Xianbei tribes fled from the camp and fled to the Mobei grassland, but none of the remaining forty-four Xianbei tribes left, even if they were the tribes that participated in the rebellion.
There is a famous stalk on the Internet in later generations, my lord, times have changed!
Today's Xianbei is responding to this stalk, even if Kebi can set off a rebellion last night, he is doomed to failure! From simple to luxurious, from luxury to simple difficult! Even if Wang Hou did not have Wang's crossbow, Wang Hou was beaten out of the city in embarrassment and withdrew to Liaodong, but the trade between the Xianbei people and the Han was also cut off.
Even if he controls the milk powder farm and the woolen field, with Xianbei's only two or three hundred thousand people and a thin grassland economy, how much profit can be generated from trade with the Western Regions?
In particular, the Western Regions is not a grain export place, and most of the grain and wine in Guihua City come from Liaodong, even if they make money, the Xianbei people cannot be converted into daily necessities.
Without coal to keep warm, no food to feed the stomach, no wine to warm up and paralyze the nerves, how long can the Xianbei people who have eaten the subsistence allowance for two years last in the white disaster? Civil wars, fighting for their only rations, bloodshed, fighting, slaughter, death in patches, then replaced by the rise of another, more savage steppe tribe.
It's not alarmist, it's just right at hand.
This is also the reason why the forty-four Xianbei clans did not dare to leave the Naturalization City even if they participated in the rebellion of Kebineng, it was approaching winter soon, and leaving the winter land without preparing the winter materials was tantamount to suicide!
In an extraordinarily tense atmosphere, Guihua City was under the control of the Liaodong Army, and it was closed for two days.
The place where this meeting was held was a circular Shan Yu Gong Temple, or as always, the whole sheep was roasted on the three fires in the middle, and fine wine was also placed, but this time, no matter how greedy the Xianbei people who ate good wine, they were probably in no mood, and each of them carefully looked at the top of the hall.
General Wang's face is not so pleasant! God knows if he will immediately turn over the old accounts and take a large number of people out and cut off their heads.
And the guests present today are also quite heavyweight, Murong Chui, the new patriarch of the Eastern Xianbei Murong Clan, the Southern Xianbei Leader who was beaten out, the younger brother of the former Xianbei Leader Tan Shikui, and Fu Luohan, who also belongs to the Southern Xianbei, but is a part of his own, and also has the blood of the Tan Shikui family.
The hall was silent as if it was dead, only the crackling sound of the fire roasting, which whetted people's appetites in the dreary, until the whole sheep was roasted and gave off a slight smell of paste, and his face was gloomy, Wang Hou suddenly stood up, but this first sound was a roar of rage like Zeus on Mount Olympus.
"Isn't the Han Empire good enough for Xianbei?"
After some questioning, just when many Xianbei chiefs were sweating in their heads, Wang Hou was even more angry, but the words with deviated meanings roared out.
"The imperial court has just spent a lot of money to hold a grand event of Tarakum for you and other Xianbei! even named him Kebi Neng Xianbei Shan Yu, but in a blink of an eye, he topped, there was no way to be true, and he did it, and the four departments of Zhenglou openly rebelled! Attacking Guihua City at night, burning and looting shops, so that the Xianbei merchants and Han merchants in the city suffered heavy casualties, it was simply madness, and everyone was angry! Sins are not forgiven! ”
These words were murderous, but they all relieved the chiefs of the Xianbei tribe who were present, and then, with a warm tone, they also stood up one after another, and then roared with righteous indignation.
"What General Zhenbei said is yes! These four are simply white-eyed wolves that can't be raised! ”
"Everybody gets it!"
That night, more than 50,000 Xianbei thugs poured into the city! In addition to the twelve surnames who made a fortune in the city, and then get rid of the eastern Xianbei and the southern Xianbei, almost all the remaining tribes have a share! However, Wang Hou did not have the strength to slaughter most of the Xianbei, if he chose to go to war, even if he defeated these Xianbei tribes, let them flee to the depths of the grassland, and then freeze to death and starve to death, the rest would have to become a big problem for his trade route.
Therefore, setting the enemy's target on the four tribes that ran away and turning a blind eye to the accomplices of this riot has become Wang Hou's last resort, which is called political compromise.
Of course, if you don't pursue it now, if it's not true, you won't be held accountable, and whoever is not honest in the future can still turn over old accounts!
Moreover, the Tuoba Department was listed as a strategic goal, which caused these chiefs with a belly of flowers to follow the frenzy, and Wang Hou took the opportunity to take advantage of the topic to play, taking advantage of the extraordinarily happy of these people shouting to show their loyalty, he shouted again with high-spirited words.
"Excellent! Since you are so jealous and hateful, in response to the rebellion of several departments, this seat has decided to transfer 6,000 strong men from all departments of Naturalization City to form the Xianbei Brigade, which specializes in suppressing the rebellion, so as to beware of the comeback of Kebineng! In addition, in order to sympathize with the ministries, Ben decided to establish a new business group and continue to move forward to the Western Regions, and all the ministries can participate! ”
"In addition, it is imperative to build a railway from Naturalized City to Liaodong, funded by the Han Imperial Court, and all departments are out of Ding, and all those who participate in the construction are rewarded with grain and wine!"
"Another point, in order to exclude the spies of the thieves, the population of each department will be registered in the household registration from now on! Make no mistake! ”
Several orders, each of which shouted bitterly in the mouths of these Xianbei chiefs, don't look at Kebineng also requisitioning troops to fight, but Kebineng's requisition and Wang Hou's requisition are not the same thing, the former is still based on the tribe, and the military power is still in the hands of the tribal chief, Wang Hou is to draw out all the troops that can be beaten, and the command is all in his own hands, which is to draw the blood of each department
The establishment of a new business group can be regarded as a benefit, after all, the first twelve departments made a fortune because of this, but Wang Hou's trick is also an old wild boar Pinurhachi.
You must know that before Nurhachi unified the Jurchen tribes, these Jurchens actually went their own way, fighting each other all the year round, and the hatred between them even exceeded the hatred of the Ming people, but Nurhachi established the Eight Banners system, and the conquered Jurchens were first pinched together according to the old tribes, and then led them to rob the Han people, and the rich booty obtained gradually bridged the blood feud between the previous tribes, and gradually built the Jurchen Eight Banners into an indestructible bandit military group, and finally swept East Asia.
Wang Hou is almost the same, take your big guys out to do business and make a fortune, the more you earn, the more these Xianbei tribes will be inseparable from Liaodong, so one or two generations, sooner or later, they will be like the Xianbei people in the Sui and Tang dynasties, all of them will be absorbed into the stomach.
In particular, if there is any hard stubble in the middle of the road that obstructs the trade route, three or four hundred thousand Xianbei people will become excellent thugs.
But in this way, just like what Yehe, Ula, and Haixi Jurchen, the power of the Xianbei tribes of the original tribal system will be more concentrated in the hands of Wang Hou, the general.
Then there is the construction of railways and the entry of household registration, each of which is a means for Wang Hou to strengthen his control over Xianbei.
And more importantly, there was a lot of anger, but Wang Hou didn't say a word about the new and humble thing, if he concealed the reason for Kebineng's death.
Now, Kebi Neng is still alive, but he is still rebelling in the name of Xianbei Shan Yu, which is equivalent to nominally completely cutting off the existing Xianbei tribe and the old Xianbei ruling layer, and near Guihua City, they are all Xianbei under the command of the Han Empire, and all those who call Shan Yu are rebellious!
From now on, Xianbei will also become a thing of the past on Wang Hou's strategic map!
