The Xiongnu were scattered by Xianbei, some fled north, some went west, and some went south.

Today's Xianbei is almost following the old path of the Huns, and fled in three ways. Of course, if you count the Xianbei people who are still working in the Han land and accepting transformation, it can be regarded as four roads.

Maybe in a few years, there will be a Xianbei clan in Huaxia, which may be the final way out for Xianbei in this world.

"Tens of thousands of captives, is there any mistake......" The household department has begun to enter the busiest period again, and the working environment, which had become a little more comfortable because of the better finances, has temporarily become busy again.

Tens of thousands of captives, eating and drinking every day is a big problem, especially tens of thousands of horses, cattle and sheep.

It just so happens that Dahan is now going to build everywhere, especially Baiyun City, which also needs to continue to build, and there are not enough manpower. The captive cattle, sheep and horses are another big income. The officials of the household department can now be said to be busy with pain and happiness.

Meng Xin, who only entered the household department last year, originally felt that the work was not very busy when he first came in. I wonder why those acquaintances who have already entered the work of the six departments will say that the household department is the busiest, and the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Rites are even busier.

Now I understand that it's not that I'm not busy, but it's not time to be busy......

According to Xun Yu, even if there is a delay of even one minute, a large amount of food will be consumed by these captives, and they must be placed as soon as possible, and at the same time, they must be arranged to work, so as to avoid wasting too much food.

This kind of boss who is as calculating as a housekeeper is hard to think about coming from the Yingchuan Xun family. Look at Xun Yue, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, that kind of elegant temperament, it's decent!

"Over there, don't be idle!" was muttering, and was shouted by his boss? "It's not just a question of these tens of thousands of captives? The change of states to provinces is also about to begin! ”

It's not just a matter of changing a state into a province or a county into a government. According to Liu Tao's meaning? Ready for this year? Starting next year, two or three counties under the jurisdiction of one prefecture? Up to four. According to this ratio, the administrative scope of each province will be redivided.

Meantime? A town under the county? It's about five miles or so of a town, and if the number of people is not enough, a township will be set up. In the township, villages should be set up according to the actual situation, and official positions such as the chief of the pavilion and the head of the township should be abolished? Change to village head? Township and town mayors.

Unlike counties, villages and towns do not have walls. In fact, if it weren't for habit, and the era of cold weapons would last for two or three hundred years, Liu Tao would still think about simply demolishing all the city walls.

Black powder will definitely be made in thirty years at most, but the original black powder? Even if you measure up, you have to blast open the city wall built of Sanhe soil? It's not as good as a heavy catapult.

Only granular gunpowder, and even more advanced yellow gunpowder came out? The walls will be phased out. Maybe it won't be completely eliminated, such as keeping a small section of the tower? It's used as a historical site or something.

What does Liu Tao think? What is the current level of chemistry in Huaxia? To reach the level of usability, there is no two or three hundred years that cannot be done. After all, it is not only the problem of gunpowder, but also the casting and other supporting technologies must be improved.

For example, the iron fan made a cannon, which was blown by the author in later generations, and the quality of the cast cannon is not as good as the clay fan, a bit fast, after all, the production of the clay fan is very time-consuming, and it is easy to appear defective clay fan.

It's just a question, who is better than a thousand arquebuses and a Makqin? Therefore, it is useless to pay too much attention to quantity, the production of gunpowder and shells cannot keep up, and a thousand guns are not a good thing.

Liu Tao is not in a hurry, after the unification of the Han Dynasty, the remaining enemies are the corners of each side. I didn't clean it up before, because it was beaten down, and this place was not suitable for life.

Why Jiaozhou can live, that is Zhao Tuo with hundreds of thousands of soldiers of the southern expedition, the establishment of the Nanyue country there, after almost three generations of reproduction and development, this began to gradually become an environment suitable for people to live.

In other words, to transform a place, it will take hundreds of thousands of people, and this is only the beginning. It was also necessary to overcome various difficulties, and after more than 60 years, it was possible to settle in this place for the first time.

The third generation who was born and raised in the local area can really see this place as their hometown and then build it.

Ha, maybe the first generation was forced to migrate here, and they would curse the government in their hearts, and even greet Liu Tao's family.

If you change to other dynasties, it will almost certainly be like this, just like Zhu Yuanzhang migrated a large number of rich people to his hometown, wanting to say that his hometown is prosperous. It's just that you let a successful businessman, monetize everything, and then go to a new environment and make a comeback...... Not every businessman, his name is Shen Wansan.

If we want to move others, we must do a good job of migration, prepare sufficient materials, and do a good job in all kinds of prevention work.

It is also necessary to allow them to gradually adapt to the environment of the migration site within three years, and let them acquire the skills or conditions to survive there. Only then will they gradually settle down.

After nearly 1,000 years of development, the Central Plains has reached the limit of land distribution, both in terms of power and power. Hebei and Guanzhong are similar, only about the outside, northwest, southeast and southwest, there are still undeveloped paradises.

Since the beginning of laying down the grassland, Liu Tao began to consider the idea of immigrating to Shibian. If the huge grassland is not occupied or built, it will soon be occupied by new Hu people, such as Wuhuan, or possibly Wusun.

The names of the two ethnic minorities are similar, but one is in the area of Youbeiping and the other is in the Western Regions.

"Your Majesty, Cao Cao, a high-ranking official in Gansu, asks to see you." was writing a plan, and Qian Fu came to please.

"Is it really okay for him to leave Gansu?" Liu Tao muttered, "Let him in!" ”

The Western Regions are also using troops this year, and the logistics need the support of Gansu Province to a large extent. At this time, Cao Cao came here, Liu Tao was a little worried, what if there was a problem with this supply? When Cao Cao came to visit, he asked the question.

"The minister has already made arrangements, and besides, it has now reached the rest period, and it is impossible to continue to use troops before the autumn." Cao Cao hurriedly replied. Now that they have entered April and May, the weather is getting hotter and hotter, especially in the ghost places of the Western Regions, where the sun is simply dead.

Anyway, at this stage, it will definitely not be able to fight, and you can only wait until the autumn weather is cooler before you can use troops for a month. After a month, you have to come back quickly, otherwise the weather will be as uncomfortable as the winter.

"That's ......" Liu Tao nodded, and it was impossible for Cao Cao not to know the priorities, "So, what is it that can make you put down your work and come to me?" ”

"Your Majesty said at the beginning that if the world is unified, then you will appoint a minister as the general of the expedition to the west......" Cao Cao hesitated a little, and finally plucked up his courage and said. Because this was his dream when he was young, and the most important thing is that it has the possibility of coming true.

"Haha, you're in your forties this year, and you're still planning to go to the Western Regions? As you can see, there is not much water in the yellow sand over there, and it continues to the west, a long distance, and it is almost like this. Liu Tao reminded.

"This is the minister's long-cherished wish, and I ask Your Majesty for permission!" Cao Cao replied very firmly.
