After nearly a year of understanding, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty have already been impressed by Li Yang. As long as what he said is not too absurd, even if it sounds a little outrageous at first, everyone does not dare to despise it casually.

Now, he has come up with a strategy for exterminating the Huns, which is even more admirable.

You must know that no one has ever thought of a good strategy to exterminate the Huns, and now the strategy of national integration that Li Yang said seems to have made a big difference.

Perhaps, this can really solve the Xiongnu in the north like solving the Nanyi in the south.

It's just that it is not easy to completely integrate the Xiongnu into the Chinese nation.

As the emperor feared, even if they were temporarily obedient because they had lost the foundation of their existence, there was no guarantee that they would not attack again.

Thinking of this, everyone looked like they were listening, waiting for Li Yang's talk.

Referring to the Xiongnu's fusion plan, Li Yang did not speak immediately, but pondered.

He remembered that the Qing Dynasty in history, the reason why the nomads were able to integrate, the Jurchens themselves were nomads was only one of the factors, in fact, the Jurchens were just one of the many nomads, and the nomads were originally wars between them, so the Qing Dynasty was able to integrate the nomads, and more importantly, because of a series of policies they implemented.

One was the policy of Huairou, in which the Manchus chose to co-opt the nomads, giving them practical benefits.

The second is blood fusion, and the implementation of Manchu and Mongolian intermarriage.

The third is the establishment of a flag system, which is also the most important, to divide the nomadic tribes into blocks, and not to allow them to cross the border, so that the tribes become loose and difficult to gather strength.

The fourth is to use religion to promote Lamaism in the steppe, encourage belief in Mongolian Lamaism, and drastically reduce the number of people.

Roughly through the above four strategies, the nomads for thousands of years have been completely solved.

For Li Yang, his ability is, to put it bluntly, historical experience.

Therefore, thinking about how the Qing Dynasty solved the nomads, he said: "Your Majesty, if the Xiongnu are willing to submit to the Great Qin, they can completely integrate them into the Chinese nation with only five strategies. ”

"Oh? Speak quickly! Ying Zheng couldn't wait a little and urged.

Li Yang nodded: "First, set up counties and counties in the grassland, build cities, dismantle all the small tribes of the Xiongnu, and the leaders of the small tribes will seal the county order." ”

"What? Let the Huns manage the steppe themselves? ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone immediately showed a surprised expression.

Ying Zheng was puzzled: "Wouldn't letting them manage the grassland by themselves be equivalent to still being outside the rule of my Great Qin?" ”

"Definitely! Your Majesty, please listen to your minister's explanation. ”

Li Yang shook his head, and then said: "The purpose of setting up counties is to divide the grassland into blocks, so that the leaders of various small tribes can serve as county commanders and take charge of one place, so that the Huns can check and balance each other. Your Majesty, you think, isn't the reason why the Xiongnu will become powerful is because their small grassland tribes are under the orders of Mao Dun Shan Yu? And once a county is established, all small tribes are given county orders, and they will have the identity and status of an equal seat from then on, and no one will listen to anyone in the future. In the meantime, the entire grassland is scattered with sand, and I, Daqin, will never have to worry about the future. ”

When everyone heard this, they were stunned.

Because the method Li Yang said, after his detailed explanation, is indeed extremely exquisite, making people feel empowered and suddenly opened.

"Wonderful! Great! That's a great idea! ”

After Ying Zheng listened, he also praised loudly with joy.

Li Yang smiled: "Your Majesty, when the time comes, I can be appointed by the officials of Great Qin as the county guard, leading these large and small tribes, and mediating the contradictions between the various tribes in the middle, I will definitely let these large and small tribes, only my Great Qin Horse take the lead." At the same time, it was strictly ordered that grazing in the counties was not allowed to cross the border, so that they became even more loose and difficult to gather strength. Moreover, we can give them the fertile pastures in the Hetao area, so that the pastures of various departments are poor and fertile, and their hearts are even more uneven. Even if the tribes close to the bitter cold north want to rebel, the tribes that have obtained fertile pastures will not follow, after all, they are living in abundance. ”

"Good, good! Hahaha! ”

Ying Zheng laughed, his eyes lit up, the checks and balances that Li Yang said were indeed very good at completely disintegrating the Xiongnu forces.

And the ministers of civil and military affairs were also shocked by Li Yang's skill of checks and balances.

They didn't expect that Li Yang would be so insidious and cunning.

At this time, they realized that Li Yang was able to defeat Zhao Gao, it was really not luck. At present, the checks and balances he talked about are enough to show this person's scheming and scheming, which is really worse than some scheming old ministers.

At this moment, everyone couldn't help but be a little frightened.

This guy is really not simple!

Of course, Feng Quji also frowned slightly, and glanced at Li Yang deeply.

Li Yang continued: "And the establishment of the city, it is even more useful, the reason why the nomads are difficult to exterminate, is because they have no fixed place to live, come and go flexibly, and set up a county, they have a fixed area, plus the construction of the city, they have a place to live, men can go out in the prescribed grassland nomadism, but their wives and children will stay in the city, so that they have sustenance, and it is no longer possible to say that they will leave." ”

Everyone nodded, and Meng Tian praised loudly: "Prime Minister Zhong is really a good plan!" ”

Li Yang smiled.

"You just said that there are five strategies, this is one of them, but what about the other?" Ying Zheng's interest was high, and he immediately asked.

Li Yang said: "This second is trade. In the end, in order for them to be content with the rule of Great Qin, they must also be able to survive, so trade is indispensable. We can exchange food and necessities, and even some luxury goods such as wine, for their livestock production, so that not only will they not be forced to invade the Central Plains again in order to survive, but the entire grassland will become the pasture of our Great Qin, and we can continuously send war horses, furs, cattle and mutton to the Central Plains, which is a win-win situation. ”

Ying Zheng nodded very approvingly again.

"The third is the assimilation of culture. Nomads don't have much of their own culture, so Chinese culture can easily replace their own. Therefore, the third strategy is to put compulsory education in the grassland in an all-round way, so as to use culture to assimilate and transform their thinking and unify their consciousness, so that the next generation will no longer have to worry. ”

Everyone cheered!

"And what about the fourth?" Meng Tian asked.

"Fourth, it is blood fusion!"

Li Yang smiled: "Encourage the Chinese people to intermarry with the nomads, encourage the exchanges between the two races, as long as the blood is fused, they will really be inseparable from each other and become one." ”

Everyone nodded, this one is indeed very important.

At this time, without waiting for others to ask, Li Yang continued: "Fifth, it is to give them the opportunity to be promoted. Don't they advocate force, don't they ride ** Zhan? Then conscript troops in the grasslands, let all the young and strong men enlist in the army, give them a platform to make contributions, and at the same time consume their young and strong and reduce their population. Of course, those tribal leaders can also give them promotions, let them come to the Central Plains to serve as officials, and even those who have the ability can enter the power center of Xianyang. In this way, even for the sake of their own glory and wealth, they will let their tribe behave properly. ”

Speaking of this, Li Yang smiled: "With such five strategies, the minister thinks that the trouble in the north may be eliminated forever!" ”
