Back then, in order to be able to rest assured in the Northern Expedition, Zhuge Liang personally led a large army to fight against the rebellion of the Southern Barbarian Meng, and captured seven verticals, just to convince them. In later generations, Chairman Chiang also famously said: If you go outside, you must first settle inside. I have to admit that domestic abuse brought his policy to an abrupt halt, so much so that he later retreated to Taiwan. The hero is really the same as what he saw, facing the fierce rival Shi Le, before the decisive battle on the battlefield, Liu Yao still needs to do too much behind-the-scenes work. It's just that, later, he didn't do it well.

At that time, Liu Yao's former Zhao was facing a very unoptimistic domestic situation, Guanzhong, Longyou and other ethnic minorities such as Di and Qiang were not naturalized, and they belonged to the kind of work that whoever gave more money, and what loyalty, filial piety, and righteousness were all nonsense! The Western Jin Dynasty forces in the Chang'an area have not been completely wiped out, in order to fight against Liu Yao, they often unite with those ethnic minorities to attack Liu Yao, and Liu Yao has a headache!

A stable rear has become Liu Yao's most urgent need.

It's a pity that things always backfire, and things that make Liu Yao even more headaches come one after another.

In 320, Liu Yao's subordinate Yin Che, the captain of Changshui, connected with the Ba Yi chieftain Xu Kupeng.

It is said that for such a thing, the general treatment measure is that "only the first evil is the first, and the rest are released" is enough, but Liu Yao is Liu Yao, he first killed Yin Che, and later killed Xu Kupeng and all the 5,000 subordinates who were captured.

Yin Che is a small footman, and he is his own person, an anti-minister, and if he kills, he will be killed. But Xu Kupeng is different, Chief Bayi! The death of him and his 5,000 subordinates completely ignited the strong national hatred of the Ba and Di people against Liu Yao. Tuiba and Di Guishan Wang Juqu knew that they were the leaders and held an uprising. All of a sudden, more than 30,000 people from Qiang, Di, Ba, and Qian all responded, and Guanzhong was in chaos, and the situation was very tense.

The rebellion arose as a result of the counterinsurgency, and the already unstable Guanlong area became even more chaotic.

Later, Liu Yao took Youziyuan as the general of the chariot and cavalry, and the governor Yongqin conquered the military, and finally basically quelled the rebellion, and more than 200,000 people such as Xiba and Di were in Chang'an. Then Liu Yao personally conquered Ba and Di Yang, moved Yang Tao and other more than 10,000 households to Chang'an, and then quelled the rebellion of Chen An in Fengzhou.

What does a spate of rebellions and counter-insurgency mean? Labor and money, loss of money, and death. A lot of people are worked, a lot of money is injured, and a lot of people die! Liu Yao's military success could not hide his political defeat.

It seems that Liu Yao is a person who doesn't like to read, otherwise, he will definitely think of Zhuge Liang's strategy to quell the rebellion of Meng Huo, which is the real great wisdom. As Xunzi said: Mergers are easy but hard to condense. Liu Yao conquered the land by force, but he did not conquer the hearts of the people in the land.

Liu Yao, who was carrying a great victory, immediately went to attack the former Liang Zhang regime. We will talk about this Zhang regime in detail in the following chapters, and we can introduce it here slightly.

Qianliang, the founder was Zhang Rail, who served as the Assassin of Liangzhou and the captain of Huqiang during the Yongning period of the Western Jin Dynasty, and Beigong Chun, who rescued Luoyang several times, was Zhang Rail's subordinate. After Luoyang was conquered, Emperor Jin Chu made Zhang Liang the pastor of Liangzhou in Chang'an, and he has always been a magistrate of the Jin Dynasty. Later, the Jin Dynasty moved south and no longer bordered Liangzhou, so Liangzhou became a de facto country of its own. By the time Liu Yao attacked Liangzhou on a large scale, the Liangzhou Mu had already passed to Zhang Liang's grandson Zhang Mao.

Liu Yao's army drove straight in, 25,000 soldiers, near the river to the camp, more than 100 miles, the sound of bells and drums, the boiling river moved! The people of the time sighed: "Since ancient times, the military has not been prosperous. Liangzhou was shocked. Zhang Mao contributed to Liu Yao with cattle and sheep, gold and silver, female prostitutes, treasures, pearls and jade, and Liangzhou specialties, and called him a vassal. Liu Yao then appointed Zhang Mao as the protector of the Western Regions and the king of Liang, and immediately became a teacher.

Didn't fight.

What was the process of cooling before the attack? Basically, it can be expressed as follows:

Liu Yao took a lot of people to fight Zhang Mao, 25,000. At the time, people called it: since ancient times, the prosperity of the military, there has been no Sibi. Before the fight started, Zhang Mao was frightened, immediately bowed his head and gave Liu Yao a big gift, Liu Yao was very happy after getting the gift, and gave Zhang Mao a bunch of officials, and then went home.

Nothing is wrong, right? The soldiers who surrender without a fight, and the good ones are also good. This one used to be said in the art of war, no problem!

Is it really okay?

In World War II, a Japanese general named Yamamoto Isoroku once commented on Nagumo Nakaichi who took it when he saw it in the Pearl Harbor incident: Nagumo-kun was a thief who went to a jewelry store to steal one or two treasures and ran away.

Liu Yao's actions are just such a thief.

The army of 25,000 people was definitely overwhelming in that era, enough to shake the heavens and the earth. People eat horses and chew horses, and the daily cost is ten thousand. I just took two pieces of candy from someone else and went home. Ridiculous, you say? There is no war, and the officers and men of the three armies do not make an inch, which breaks the dream of many people who count on this campaign to be promoted to become rich, and the soldiers will be resentful. A few gifts, not worth one-tenth of the loss of military spending, where to make up for the emptied treasury?

As the top leader, Liu Yao must consider these issues. However, Liu Yao only went home happily after receiving Zhang Mao's promise of surrender. It's strange, doesn't he know that the promise in the context of that situation is not as real as the toilet paper.

It's a pity that the fat to the mouth flies! Liu Yao, who could have eaten white and chubby, maintained his figure perfectly. Oh no, the physical outdoors has made him even thinner than before.

You must know that Han Xin resolutely launched an attack when Qi had already promised to surrender. There is no other meaning, if you don't fight, what will you do to make meritorious deeds, and what will you reward the three armies?

Zhang Mao only surrendered and did not surrender.

In order to consolidate his rule, Liu Yao still implemented a series of effective measures, and during his reign, although he implemented the policy of partition between Hu and Han, he also actively adopted the policy of ethnic integration and cultural assimilation. He proclaimed himself emperor, indicating that he was the orthodox ruler of the Han and Hu tribes in the north, and let his son Liu Yin be the big single to rule the Hu people. In this way, the ethnic conflict between Hu and Han was effectively alleviated and eased.

In addition, a system of rents was established and feudalism was practiced. This is to learn from the Central Plains Dynasty in terms of political and economic system, and it is of quite positive significance to the backward Hu regime.

Former Zhao actively promoted Confucianism, set up Taixue and primary schools in Chang'an, hired famous scholars to teach Confucian culture, and there were more than 1,500 students at that time, and employed some learned Han people as officials.

Liu Yao's Zhao State showed a greater tendency to Sinicize than the Xiongnu Han State. Therefore, scholars believe that the Zhao regime before the establishment of the Xiongnu Liu clan should be one of the Chinese feudal regimes combining Han and Hu, and should not be despised with the prejudice of Han nationalism.

However, he has never had a complete set of political measures to govern the country and secure the people. This laid the groundwork for the later defeat of the duel with Shiler.

When Liu Yao first entered the customs, he could still listen to the rules of his subordinates, such as when he wanted to build a mausoleum when he built his own mausoleum, Qiao Yu and Bao Shang dissuaded him, Liu Yao listened to the great joy and said: "The two servants are sincere and have the style of the ancients, and they can be described as the ministers of the society." The project was abandoned. However, not long after quelling the rebellion of Ba and Di, the proud and complacent Liu Yao began to listen to the advice of the ministers. Before Chen An's rebellion was settled, Liu Yao built a mausoleum for his parents, with a cost of 100 million, and Da Situ Youzi Yuanjin stopped building, but he did not listen, filial piety is filial piety, but the money spent for the dead is to be pulled out of the mouth of the living, I don't know if Liu Yao knows.

In ancient times, the construction of mausoleums was a major event, and successive kings began to build their own tombs as soon as they ascended the throne, believing that this matter was related to their own happiness in the underworld, and at the same time affected whether future generations would be blessed and prosperous.

Liu Yao spent his limited people's and financial resources on the construction of the mausoleum. As a result, the people are weakened and the treasury is empty, how can such a country be solid?
