"At the beginning, the scale of the country was ambitious, with civilian officials governing it, military officers suppressing it, supporting the officials and army with the financial resources of Zhudong, and driving by the people's preparations. Although the chief of the cave is known as the state and county, he wears more soapy cloth robes, and he is the head of the household. The order is popular, and the guarantee is hidden. ”

This is an excerpt from the manuscript of Fan Xuan's "Book of the Southern Barbarians" about the governance of the Turkish barbarian officials in the past dynasties, which makes people seem to be quite reasonable; It is also the structure and model that Zhou Huai'an wants to continue to maintain in the land of Annan.

By intimidating and sucking the blood of the barbarians by force, they maintained the power to suppress them, and then in this cycle of reciprocity, until they were gradually weakened and civilized, and finally had to accept the subtle reality and become a natural part of the land of the Han land.

Speaking of which, Zhou Huai'an is actually very envious of the kind of social mobilization ability and organizational efficiency that can erupt from the grassroots level with relatively backward productive forces and social development levels since the Qin and Han dynasties.

It is precisely because of this classical militarist regime that under the framework of the classical militarist regime, the organization and mobilization ability of the whole country as a whole can be used for several generations to sweep through the United States Liuhe, and it is almost invincible in all directions. Although this system is not adjusted and transformed in the peaceful era, it is easy to become the soil for cultivating Chen Sheng and Wu Guang and others under high pressure; However, in the turbulent period of the decline of the dynasty, it was extremely competitive and advantageous.

It was only after the Eastern Han Dynasty that with the rise of the family gate lords, the control of the political power at the grassroots level of the people experienced a great retreat and a compromise with local forces; Although the successive dynasties have gone back and forth several times, from clan lords to scholars, various classes have changed one after another; The continuous progress of the productive forces and the evolution of the superstructure are becoming more and more sophisticated; However, in the end, it has never been able to return to the original level.

It was not until after the founding of the People's Republic of China that the tentacles and executive power of the political power were re-penetrated into the rural peasants, who accounted for the majority of the country's population, through the land reform task force, the movement of public ownership of the means of production, and the system of grassroots party organizations.

And Zhou Huai'an himself, although constrained by the historical limitations of the productive forces and social environment of this era, also lacked the corresponding transportation and communication conditions to realize the terrible execution of the party organization at the grassroots level in later generations; However, in the name of "copying the ancients", it is not too difficult to reproduce some elements of classical militarism in the Qin and Han dynasties, and then stuff in some lessons and personal private goods that I have gained in later generations.

At most, during this period, he was complained and criticized by scholars as: "Legalists, teachers are tyrannical and unsympathetic"; However, if this "people" is not the landlords and gentry who have the right to speak in society, but the majority of the poor people who are precarious and desperate, then it doesn't matter what "sympathy or not" is.

Under strict control, they can live hard and tenaciously by relying on their own labor, or like the modern Indian peasants, if they have a slight famine, they can only choose to starve to death, hang themselves or cannibalize at home. I believe that except for those Western white leftists who have been brainwashed into idiots by the spirit of anarcho-liberalism, and domestic public Vs, no one will have difficulty in choosing.

After the initial decision of Jiaozhou, the righteous army did not remain idle, but by the way, they swept away the barbarian settlements in the mountains and wilderness around the Red River Plain; Among them, the rebels get their wealth, goods, property and population, and the local wealthy local soldiers and regimental training who are attached to the war will share their real estate such as fields and houses according to the degree of contribution and contribution, which can be regarded as a kind of mutual win-win and mutual benefit.

Of course, in addition to military conquest, there are also operational and infiltration methods in the economic lifeline.

Compared with the coastal trade activities of Annam, which have been quite developed and mature since South Vietnam, the economic structure of the inland states of Annam is much more homogeneous, mainly based on the export of rice, mulberry and hemp, timber and ore; Then mixed with some cattle and beasts; In addition, the gold, miscellaneous incense, cinnabar and other things produced by the transfer of the barbarian Zhuyi.

Bulk materials such as salt and iron, which are related to people's livelihood, as well as daily necessities such as silk, brocade, Luo, paper, pen, porcelain, pottery, and even copper coins and utensils; It all depends on foreign imports from Guangfu and Huzhou. Therefore, as a means of subsequent operation and maintenance, the development of diversified handicraft and river trade activities is the long-term plan for the rebels to continue to digest this series of results.

For example, after the initial decision of Jiaozhou, during the period of sweeping the place with troops, the rebel army managed (occupied) the borderless land caused by the coastal war, or took over the reverse property of the thieves; Replace and redeem with those small and medium-sized wealthy families whose real estate is fragmented.

Add to that the rescued population and livestock, and the large number of captured barbarians who drive and enslave them; It is easy to build a large area of new reclamation and settlements with Jiaozhou Dagang and Haimen Town as the radiation center.

Then, after gaining a firm foothold in turn, we will further tap the potential of local special cash crop planting and local product production and processing. In this way, the coastal areas of Annam will no longer rely solely on the prosperity and prosperity caused by various entrepot trades, but have long-term stable industries and beneficiary groups with entry and exit; This is tantamount to creating a large number of potentially vested interests in the coastal areas of Annam, which are different from the inland and naturally inclined to the rebels.

As the saying goes, there are no eternal friends, no eternal enemies, only eternal interests; Whether it is the fear of cruelty and terror, or the grace of gratitude or praise; After the initial continuity, it will eventually dissipate and be forgotten in people's hearts over time. Only when it is supplemented by vital interests is the existence that is most likely to be maintained and maintained.

In the long run, as long as these soldiers and civilians within the influence of the rebel army can be hungry and even profitable; As time goes by, when they get used to it, they will spontaneously reject and eliminate those factors and noises that are obviously unfavorable to the rebels.

For Zhou Huai'an, the biggest intangible gain still comes from his own army construction and three-view forging.

If the Fury Wind Battalion, which still bears the imprint and residual influence of the traditional rebel army, has now developed a sense of honor, achievement, and conquest under the identity of the family and the country and the clan through a series of battles in distant and foreign places, and has basically transformed into a new-style army that is initially supported and maintained by its own barely self-consistent theoretical system, beliefs and goals.

Therefore, in the concise principles and slogans that were read and implemented in the morning and evening, the routine content of "protecting Li Shu and not being a prisoner" was also added in due course.

Among them, there is also a relatively large harvest, that is, there are two or three thousand military households and soldiers from Tuntian who have been collected locally and scattered throughout Annam. Although there are generally some people who are older and have no shortage of family drags, the experience and skills of veterans of a hundred battles are not much worse.

In fact, these Long March athletes from the north, the soldiers in the south of the town, as long as they can listen to the initial adaptation period, can be said to be the existence of explosive combat power in the local area, and they can often beat the local barbarian forces several times their own with fewer blows; And in the surrounding areas there is a wide range of deterrence.

Just like the 6,000 soldiers stationed in Linxiyuan at the beginning, they could easily suppress several powerful tribes, including Qiyuandong (near Liangshan in Vietnam), so that they did not dare to disagree and act for generations.

In addition, they actually have no clear affiliation and structure, and their respective backgrounds and backgrounds are relatively messy, making it difficult to form a township party that can be grouped; It is very suitable as a local garrison force after the expansion of the army, or as the backbone and backbone of the reserve system.

Therefore, many of them were willing to abandon those military villages and fortifications that were no longer of much value, and move with their families to the coastal areas of Annan under the control of the rebels, or even farther to Lingdong, so as to obtain the resettlement homestead in the corresponding grange. Of course, we must not relax our follow-up education and transformation and indoctrination.

Naturally, in this process, it is not without twists and turns and repeated things; In other words, after gradually moving away from the news and changes in Jiaozhou, there are always forces that do not believe in evil and use their arms as a car, and want to take the opportunity to weigh the weight of the rebels to achieve their own ambitions and desires.

For example, in Huanzhou in the south, it encountered more resolute resistance from local forces. With the combined efforts of dozens of large gentry who had occupied the city of Huanzhou and felt good about themselves, the local local regiments and village soldiers who had been incited even cut off the head of a small powerful and patriarch sent as a messenger and threw it into the city.

Then there was nothing to say, directly under the cover of the platoon and the salvo of crossbows, and the stone cone ramming hammer of the car blasted open the city gate. The subordinate soldiers and horses who hated the same enemy were the first to enter the city, and a purge and purge were launched;

In the end, except for the majority of the poor households who were deliberately spared and the civilians who failed to participate in the defense of the city, all kinds of severed heads were piled up outside the city gates for a while. In addition, more than 2,000 Ding Zhuang were taken away and sent to serve in the army, at least 10 to 20 years as a ransom.

Then, it was as if he had suddenly broken through some kind of tipping point in the human heart; Or it makes people realize that in addition to the strict discipline and goodwill of the rebels in their daily orders, there is also another side of cruelty to the enemy and eradication of the roots;

As a result, some of the local self-reliance tendencies and stubborn refusal to defend due to the war also disappeared for a while, leaving a harmonious scene of all kinds of pots and pulp eating to welcome the righteous teacher.

In addition, it was in the vicinity of the Wushi Ridge (Jiaonuo Pass) near the Xia (Xiao) Prefecture (west of present-day Vinh City, Vietnam) that passed through the Prison Clan, because of the perennial rain and fog that did not disperse, it was ambushed and frequently attacked by the local barbarians, Nuotouman, and suffered a lot of losses; The new subordinate army, which spontaneously served as a precursor, was almost completely wiped out on the mountain road; The rebels attacked several times in this formation due to the difficult terrain, but they were all beaten back and lost hundreds of people.

Finally, by listening to the experience of local hunters, a large amount of charcoal and straw bales were collected, piled on carts and thrown all the way and burned all the way; This broke the other party's means of concealment and hiding. Expose the mountain barbarians like secret rats to the crowds in broad daylight, and then defeat and annihilate them in front of the arrays that advance like walls; Even a few dangerous stockades hidden in the mountains were not spared, and they were all broken by the rebels, and then killed and plundered by the Tutuan soldiers and then burned down.

Later, even when he went south to the territory of Luo Fu (Xiao) Prefecture (now Hai Wan City, Vietnam), he defeated a Champa army that had invaded and plundered from the territory of Linyi; Nearly 10,000 were killed before and after, and tens of thousands of native soldiers were gathered to break through more than a dozen walled cities in Linyi Kingdom, and they were killed and plundered until they reached the city of Youluo, the birthplace of the surname Wang;

Finally, the current Cham king, who had usurped the throne from the nobles of the previous dynasty, was shocked and feared by Indravarman II, and sent a number of gold, silver, bronze, rice, and other products and slaves as a price to clear up the misunderstanding and stop the war.

And this Cham dynasty is also an outlier, the country implements a four-class caste system from Nantianzhu, but it is believed in Mahayana Buddhism, and the patron saint of the royal family is the Nanhai Guanyin Bodhisattva.

Although in the end, the rebel army did not occupy an inch of Linyi on the surface, but left the walled city to the local local soldiers, and supported a separatist force claiming to be the descendant of the former king of Huan on the captured land as a buffer between the borders.

By the way, the kingdom of Luchenla (from present-day Laos to Cambodia), which was adjacent to Linyi and Annam, was also under the reign of the Khmer (Khmer) Dynasty, and the construction of the Great Angkor Thom (Angkor King City) began with the strength of the country, which was the original origin of the famous Angkor Wat ruins in later generations;

Then, under the good situation of "internal and external salty clothes and fame" for a while, Zhou Huai'an was left to continue the armed parade (declaration and deterrence) of Yanbian at the southern end of Annan, and at the same time re-excavate and repair the ancient bronze pillars of Zhennan erected by Ma Fubo and other ancient relics, and set up a monument for the identity of future generations as a note.

As the saying goes, if you want to die in your clan, you will die in history; What's more, there will not even be a shadow of the later secession regime; Therefore, Zhou Huai'an can commemorate and pay tribute to the origin of the ancestors, and arrange manpower to collect and reconstruct the local history in the local area;

Then, the historical records such as "the rebellion of the Zheng sisters in the Eastern Han Dynasty", "the rebellion of Zhao Fei in the Three Kingdoms period", "the rebellion of Li Ben in the Northern and Southern Dynasties", "the Li Fozi uprising in the Sui Dynasty", etc., were re-deleted and diluted to dissolve the attributes of resistance to oppression and ethnic positions; It highlights the destruction and pain caused by thieves and savages who are brutal and murderous to civilization;

Then appropriately stuff in some exaggerated lower three sections that are popular with the public and have the paradoxes of normal people, as well as some anti-human stories that hunt for strange and heavy mouths, as a way to add color to the content of private goods and irrigation.

Of course, there are a lot of black histories that can be exploited by these legends themselves. For example, there is a clear record in ancient history books: Zhao Yu was born as a female thief, although she was unmarried, dozens of young men had sex with her and served on her side; And the Zheng sisters from the Tu tribe are the ones who robbed their criminal husbands and gathered people to rebel, and they are strange breeds whose breasts are so long that they can be thrown over their shoulders。。。。。

In this way, as long as future generations are a little more competitive, perhaps there will be no more strange things like the Monkey Country, which has been completely split from Chinese civilization and still relied on far-fetched Chinese history in textbooks, to make up many anti-China dramas to YY's so-called national pride.
