Chapter 369: Zhang Gets Advice

In addition to Yang Hao's Qi State being an ally, he himself is also Ren Yu's brother-in-law, Ren Yu died, no matter what the reason, he had to personally organize the funeral.

Ren Yu's body was not in a hurry to be buried, Yang Hao transferred a large amount of money from the household department, and chose a place with good feng shui in the city to build a mausoleum for Ren Yu.

Although it is a thick burial, it is much worse than those emperors in later generations.

However, Ren Yu is a hero of this era, and Yang Hao doesn't want such a person to die in obscurity.

In the funeral goods, Yang Hao personally wrote an epitaph for him, praised Ren Yu's exploits, and posthumously named him still the king, with Yang Hao's beautification of it, maybe the descendants of later generations will also regard it as a great figure.

When someone dies, someone is born.

The spring of Qi in the twelfth year of Hongwu was a year of population explosion.

Countless newborns were born in this spring, and at this time of the transition between spring and summer, the Qi court's tolerance for the southern Miao people had reached its limit.

In March of the twelfth year of Hongwu, within a month's time, there were as many as a dozen official documents sent from Chang'an City to the south.

Qi severely reprimanded the Miao people who did not keep their promises, and demanded that they compensate Daqi for the unpleasant events that occurred last year.

In the face of a huge amount of compensation, how can the Miao people take it out.

Miao is about to be aggressive with the Qi people, and the high-level people of the big clan among the Miao people all understand that the Qi people are going to tear their faces.

Knowing that war was inevitable, the idealists who still had a glimmer of illusion about the country finally gave up on the unrealistic idea.

The Miao people categorically rejected the unreasonable demands of the Qi people, and the Miao tribes in the southern land played the slogan of restoring the glory of Jiuli, and the tribes of all sizes reorganized themselves to war, ready to fight to the death with the Qi people.

Yang Hao was not surprised by the reaction of the Miao people, 5,000 pigs and sheep, 3,000 cattle, and nearly 50,000 pieces of various furs, which was simply a lion's mouth.

Such a large amount, even if the Qi State has been developing for more than ten years, it will not be able to come up with it in a short period of time, let alone those primitive tribes who are still in the era of tribal alliances.

All he wants is an excuse, after all, the invasion is not very good, Yang Hao still attaches great importance to the evaluation of future generations, and he occupies the moral high ground, this is a competition provoked by the Miao people, and he is just doing this to get justice for the soldiers who died in Daqi.

The naked hegemonism was whitewashed by him, and it seemed that he was going to fight a war of self-defense and counterattack.

Only the high-level officials of the Qi State knew what Yang Hao's purpose was in doing this.

The real reason for seeking justice for the dead soldiers is that Yang Hao has taken a fancy to the fertile land and warm climate in the south.

War was inevitable, and on April 10, shortly after the Qingming Festival of Qi, a great court meeting was held in Chang'an City.

All officials in Beijing with five grades or above participated.

"Seven days ago, according to a report from the front, the Miao Man Bucks Department and the Red Mountain Department colluded together, and there should be a plan to attack our country."

Yang Hao said in a deep voice.

"Great King, the Miao people do not accept the king, and I, Daqi, should issue a document denouncing his crimes and declaring war on him."

Liyang said in a deep voice.

"Fighting must be fought, what I want is a quick victory, the longer the war drags on, the heavier the burden on the court will be, the strength of the Miao people is not weak, this king hopes that you and others will not have a heart of contempt."

After Yang Hao finished speaking, Yin said in a deep voice: "Now that there are more than 60,000 troops stationed in the south, the Miao people have been encircled, and it is only a matter of time before the Miao people are taken.

The southern wilderness is full of mountains and rivers, and even if it can defeat the main face, those Miao people hidden in the mountains and forests will pose a threat to the future occupation.

"Is the right minister too worried, a group of savages who are still bare-assed, as long as they defeat those big clans, they dare to turn the sky upside down."

Qu Leng snorted.

Yin's face turned pale and said: "Qudu Governor has forgotten the disaster that he grabbed after the destruction of Xia?" The southern mountains are dangerous, I dare to ask the governor of Qudu, if the Miao people hide in the mountains, how many people does the governor plan to send to conquer.

The money of the imperial court is not blown by the wind.

Qu was stunned, wanted to refute but couldn't find a word, his face was flushed, and he glared at Yin fiercely.

Yin turned a blind eye to this, and after finishing speaking, he looked at his nose and nose and his heart, and the appearance of the old god was there.

Yang Hao raised his head and asked the two to put down their quarrel.

"What the left minister said is also what this king is worried about, you have a good plan."

The ministers discussed in a whisper, but after more than ten minutes, no one came up with any good solution.

And at this moment, a young man suddenly said: "Back to the king, Weichen has a plan." ”

As soon as these words came out, this young man suddenly became the focus of the court.

Yang Hao looked at the young man who was only about twenty years old, and felt a little familiar, so he asked, "What is Aiqing's official position?" ”

"Back to the king, Weichen's name is Zhang Shu, and he is currently edited by the Hanlin Academy."

Yang Hao suddenly said, no wonder he looked at this guy a little familiar, after this person was introduced, he recalled that this guy was the student who had a good relationship with Ren Kang.

He was also the top student in the first imperial examination of Qi State.

A year ago, he approved the recommendation of the Ministry of Officials, and transferred him from a small county town in Jingzhou to the capital to become a five-grade official in this Xiuxia history and ancient history books.

"Zhang Aiqing has a good plan to teach this king."

Yang Hao smiled.

Zhang Shu was a little nervous and said: "Back to the king, the minister thinks that if you want to control the Miao barbarians who do not obey the king's law, the current form of immigration in my Daqi will not work, and the imperial court will not have the experience to protect ordinary people."

The only way for my Daqi ivory to gain a foothold after the war was to allow the people who went to the south to have weapons and occupy them in the form of village fortresses, so that the people who had undergone simple training should be able to resist the raids of the scattered Hmong.

If the king is worried, the people will be disadvantageous to the court if they have weapons, there is no need to worry about this, among the immigrants to the south, there must be family members to stay in Daqi proper, and the tax exemption policy for a certain period of time will be implemented for the people who go to the south, as long as no one has hysteria, no one will risk losing their heads to rebel.

As long as we build the road to the south, the problem of bandits will be solved.

After saying his thoughts in one breath, Zhang Xu's forehead was already covered with sweat, and he could even hear his own heartbeat.

The ministers all talked about this, talking about the feasibility of Zhang Shu's idea.

Yang Hao thought differently to Zhang Shu, he could get along in such a short time and in such a perfect way, this is simply a rare talent.

In other words, no matter whether Zhang Huo's plan can be passed or not, he is already in the heart of the emperor.
