Today's fifth watch

Kicked Yu Wenshu to Yunnan and threw Yu Wenhua to Dunhuang to be a pawn, Luo Cheng finally felt a little more comfortable.

Although he failed to kill the Yuwen family, the emperor protected it wholeheartedly, and it was good to have this result.

However, Luo Cheng hoped that Yuwenshu could gain a foothold in Yunnan, or even stabilize there. After all, this place in Yunnan, since ancient times, has been too far away from the political, cultural and economic center of the Central Plains, coupled with the complexity of the geographical terrain, so it has always been on the edge of the Central Plains Dynasty.

The locals are self-sufficient, men farming and women weaving, although they are backward, but they are also at ease.

In addition, they have not produced any decent characters all along, and most of them have established a looser kind of dependent vassal relationship for the Central Plains Dynasty, so they are also at ease.

Until the time of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, at that time, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty had always wanted to open a passage to the Western Regions, and after being blocked in Hexi, he wanted to make a passage to the south, go through Tianzhu to contact the Yueshi Kingdom, and then kill the Huns together.

In order to realize this strategic plan, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty began to send people deep into Yunnan, and set up four counties of Yeyu, Yunnan, Evil Dragon, and Bisu in the Dali area of Yunnan, which were under the jurisdiction of Yizhou County.

From the Western Han Dynasty to the Eastern Han Dynasty, basically the Central Plains were like this, although Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty's plan to finally go south to India failed, but the Central Plains Dynasty has since entered the Yunnan region.

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the control of Yunnan declined even more, and some Yishuai began to develop in Yunnan, and some Han people with powerful surnames also slowly rose.

Therefore, by the time of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, although Yunnan had always been on the territory of the dynasty at that time, it was actually just a declaration of sovereignty on the map.

By the time of the Sui Dynasty, a relatively powerful family appeared in Yunnan, the cuàn clan, located in Nanning.

This clan, in fact, is also from the Han nationality, which is considered to be the development of Han officials in the local area, and after hundreds of years, it has slowly become southwestern, and has become a local tycoon, but it is called Nanban.

This situation is actually very common, especially in the south, whether it is in the Lingnan region, or in the Vietnamese region, or in Yunnan or even in western Sichuan, there are too many.

In the past, the Han family was strong, relying on the background of the Central Plains Dynasty, relying on relatively advanced technology, and then being good at trading with the Central Plains, so it slowly became stronger. Coupled with intermarriage with local local chiefs, he slowly integrated into it, and even became a leader in the end.

For example, at this time, the Feng Ang family in Lingnan, the Feng family was originally the Northern Yan royal family, and later the Northern Wei Dynasty destroyed Yan, and the Northern Yan royal family fled to the Southern Song Dynasty, and the Song Dynasty placed them in Lingnan and awarded them the history of assassination. When the Feng family was in the north, it was already considered to have intermarried with the Han Dynasty, and after arriving in Lingnan, they actively intermarried with the local slang Xian family, and after several generations of intermarriage, the Feng family became the first powerful in the eastern part of Lingnan.

Feng An, the contemporary head of the Feng family, also went to the east with Yang Guang to conquer Goguryeo, and achieved the position of general of Zuo Wuwei.

In addition, the other two major families in Lingnan, the Ning family and the Chen family, were also Han heroes who went south in the early years.

Yunnan's Fu clan is actually the same as Lingnan's Feng Ning Chen Sanqiang, they all came here in this way, but Yunnan is more partial.

At the beginning of the Sui Dynasty,

The leader of the Queensland tribe accepted the appeasement and was awarded the title of Assassin of Queensland, but it didn't take long for him to rebel.

The reason for the rebellion is that the Central Plains is beyond the reach of Yunnan at all, and there is no control ability, but he always has to point fingers, and even ask for a lot, so the Fu clan naturally rebelled again, and he is the boss of the country, so why bother to be your younger brother.

Later, Emperor Wen sent the general Shi Wansui to quell the chaos, broke more than 30 divisions of the Fu clan, and captured more than 20,000 people, so Zhu Fu was afraid.

The Fu family had to surrender again, this guy was also smart, and directly bribed Shi Wansui with a large amount of gold and silver treasures, and then Shi Wansui let the tiger return to the mountain, so he rebelled again the next year.

Later, the imperial court sent Yang Wutong to lead troops to quell the rebellion, and once again captured Fu Xi and his son Fu Hongda, and escorted them to Chang'an.

After these two rebellions and the pacification, the leader of the Fu clan was destroyed, and the Fu clan suffered a fatal blow and its power was reduced.

But within a few years, Emperor Wen died of illness and Yang Guang succeeded to the throne, but Yang Guang, who had just succeeded to the throne, was busy with the rebellion of his brother Yang Liang, and later was busy dealing with Tuyuhun and others.

However, this Yunnan was neglected, and the governor's office was simply removed in the third year of the Great Cause, and then the land of Yunnan was abandoned.

Further south in Yunnan, there is the Pubu, also known as the Burmese State, which is a branch of the Ailao tribe, who also went out from Yunnan and lived in the Lancang and Nu River valleys at this time.

In fact, as early as the Wei and Jin dynasties, the local Han people formed a strong surname, and the local people Yishuai fought fiercely and merged with each other, but later, there was only one family name group left.

They were entrenched in Nanning, but they were only formally loyal to the Central Plains Dynasty, but in fact they were closing themselves in seclusion and consolidating their power in the local area.

Later, the Fu clan was also divided into two barbarians, divided into East and West.

The Fu clan stole one side, and the imperial court granted them the position of assassin Shi Taishou, which was passed down from generation to generation, extending for two thousand miles.

At present, Yunnan, which was called the southern and central region by the Sui Dynasty, is more chaotic than before, and there is no one of the Fu clans, and now the tribes are fragmented and the leaders are broken.

The western barbarians in eastern Yunnan and the eastern barbarians did not belong to each other, and fought against each other, and the internal fighting was non-stop.

On the shore of Erhai Lake, the Liuzhao tribe also began to rise one after another.

In the Nanzhong region, the tradition for thousands of years is that the various ministries often engage in predatory wars against each other, and they have been fighting back and forth like this for many years, making it difficult to develop at all, and all of them are lost in internal strife.

Luo Cheng's proposal to transfer Yuwenshu to Nanzhong was also in line with the emperor's thoughts.

After the five years of the Great Cause to eliminate Tuyuhun, and the ninth year of the Great Cause, the two major threats of Goguryeo, the east and the west, the emperor is now worried that he has no opponent.

I was forced to abandon the Nanzhong region back then, and now it's time to take it back.

Taking advantage of the current chaos in the various departments of Nanzhong, it is time to make a move, and never let them fight another boss to dominate one side.

Luo Cheng's proposal was actually from Luo Yi who had already known some of the emperor's recent investigations and deliberations, so he took the opportunity to put it forward.

He even proposed it to the emperor.

"To control Nanzhong, then the key is to have a communication artery, which is the way to advance and the lifeblood to maintain the rule."

"Do you have a suitable route to refer to?" The emperor asked.

"Your Majesty, if you follow the traditional method of building a road from Huchuan in Shuzhong to Nanzhong, not only is the road to be crossed too far, but also the mountain road is difficult to travel, especially the road from the Central Plains to Shuzhong is already far away and difficult, this road is too far and difficult to travel, and it is not suitable."

"The minister thinks that it is better to build a road from Jiaozhi County in Lingnan to the Nanzhong region, from Jiaozhi to Queensland via Butou, and then build a road to Rongzhou in the south of central Shu in the north, and build a road to Binhua in Bahan County in the northeast of Queensland."

"In the future, we can also build the road west from Queensland to Yunnan County on the shore of Erhai Lake."

Luo Cheng's route is actually an adjustment of the order, traditionally considering entering Yunnan from Sichuan or Guizhou, but Luo Cheng proposed to enter Yunnan from Vietnam.

The main passage is on the Jiaozhi side, so that you can not only take the route of Jiaozhi, Yulin and Guilin by land, and directly connect to the Xiangjiang River in Hunan, but also go east to Nanhai County through Jiaozhi and Yulin, that is, Guangzhou in later generations, and enter Ganzhou in Jiangxi to the north, and then go to the Central Plains through the Ganjiang River.

Alternatively, reach Cochin directly from the sea.

In this way, the distance from Cochin to Queensland will be greatly shortened, although the road is still thousands of miles away, but compared with Chengdu to Queensland, or from Chongqing to Queensland, not only greatly shortened the distance, especially the road is easier to repair.

Of course, if this road is built with Cochin as a starting point, it also has an important role, that is, it can greatly enhance the imperial court's control over Cochin, the southern territory of South Vietnam.

"From Jiaozhi to Nanzhong, on the road of thousands of miles, a city can be built every 100 miles, and a county can be built, and a big city can be built every 2 or 300 miles, which can be used as a military town garrison. Twenty miles to build a fort, both for the post station and for the military station, so the Belt and Road, can ensure that the imperial court's control over the southern and central regions continues to increase. When the castle of this thousand-mile road is truly stable, then the entire Nanzhong region will also be stable. ”

Opening a road from Jiaozhi to Nanzhong, this is really something Yang Guang didn't expect, before he thought about going from Bajun (Chongqing) to Luchuan (Luzhou) and then entering Nanzhong, and then from Xiezhou and Gongzhou in the north to Nanning and then to Queensland and then west to Yunnan.

It's a traditional way into South Central, but it's harder.

"Your Majesty, I suggest that you return to Nanzhong this time, and you can also bring your son Hongda, the son of Fu Hongda, and the imperial court can appoint him as the county guard, and use the influence of the Fu clan in Nanzhong to lure the tribes to annex."

The more Yang Guang listened, the more excited he felt.

At the beginning, he abolished the state and changed it to a county, and even several states in the southern and central regions did not change the name of the county, because he had actually abandoned this area.

"Yes, continue to stay in Beijing and send his son Hongda back to Nanzhong." Yang Guang also said, "Dong'an, Nanning, Kunming, and Yunnan counties can be set up in Nanzhong, with Yuwenshu as the Nanning Taishou and Hongda as the Kunming Taishou." ”

Of course, the monarchs and ministers all know in their hearts that the Taishou of the Fu Hongda is just a puppet of the Sui Army, and it is not really for him to be the Taishou, and the actual county affairs will still be in charge of the county Cheng, but they can use the huge influence of the Fu clan in Nanzhong to annex the various departments.

When the time comes, it will be played while pulling, and it will be stable while repairing the road.

It is reported that the three largest clan leaders in Nanzhong are Queensland's Fu Rijin, Nanning's Fu Gui Wang, and Yunnan's Fu Chongdao.

"You can return to Wang Andong Taishou according to the plan, and the planing Chongdao Yunnan Taishou."

Nanzhong is now the leader of the three clans, but only two of them are appointed as Taishou, and let Hongda go back to be the Taishou of Kunming, but he does not let the strongest local Fu Rijin in Kunming become the Taishou, which is to win over the weak two first, and suppress the strongest one.

Each break.

"I can't imagine that Shicheng, although you are in Liaodong, you also have such a clever plan for Nanzhong, okay." At the end, the emperor looked at Luo Yi, "Before Aiqing said that he wanted to resign from the prime minister, I refused to keep you again and again, so I appointed you as the Taishou of Jiaozhi, and the ambassador of Lingnan comfort, responsible for building roads in Jiaozhi to the border of Kunming." ”

"I know that you and Yuwen Shu are not on good terms, but this time I hope that the two of you can work together to stabilize Nanzhong."

Luo Yi was stunned, Luo Cheng was also stunned, he originally planned to let Luo Yi go to Qinghai, why did he go around and around now, but he went around Luo Yi to Jiaozhi.

That's not right.

But the emperor was on the rise at this time, and he was thinking about how to conquer the Nanzhong Zhujiao, and he didn't notice the helplessness on the faces of Luo Cheng's uncle and nephew.
