Chapter 45: My Lord, My Country

This time, Yang Li did not accompany the soldiers to be happy, because the Hewan tribe snowballed through war, the new ruling class joined in, the new exploiting class was enslaved, and the people's livelihood, rewards, division of labor, etc., all needed to be arranged as soon as possible.

If Yang Li was drunk for three days and three nights, it would be over, and when he woke up, he would probably have been beaten to the ground.

Comrade Xiao Zhang was hit by an axe in his head, and he had already lost his breath, and his uncle Bai Er was killed on the spot in the assault of the bronze swordsmen led by Yang Jiao.

The Ash Wood tribe unanimously decided to join the river bay, Yang Li said Since you are so polite, then I really can't be modest, the two families are one family, let's not say that the ash wood tribe will be covered by me in the future, because this land is not far from the river bay, and the roads between the two places have been built, it is extremely convenient to travel back and forth, and after the expansion of the city, it is nothing more than two districts of the same city.

The river bend is a grain production area and a manufacturing center, and the ash wood settlement is a commercial center, so it is possible to build a building between the two settlements as an administrative center in the future, because once the population is in the thousands, one or several people to manage the city will inevitably be inefficient.

At this time, it is necessary to form an administrative team, and this kind of team members is probably the meaning of later officials.

In this way, wouldn't it be closer to the political structure of the county system?

Not exactly, because after the merger of the two places, Yang Li's direct territory was formed, which could naturally be managed by administrative officials, and the region was farther away, and the passivity and conservatism of the county system were not what Yang Li wanted.

What happened next bears witness to this.

Lieshan Qi was also injured, he shouted that the Lieshan Settlement, let's not rule, the brain is not good, and it is too tiring to manage, or it is better to change someone.

Then he looked at Mao Mei, hoping that the deputy leader could help him say a few words.

Because he mentioned it to Yang Li several times before, saying that he wanted to give way, he just wanted to mine well, but Yang Li was stunned and disagreed.

Yulia said, "I'll go to the Lieshan clan to be the minister." ”

"Not really." Yang Jiao glared at her and bluffed her back, what kind of heart this girl has, Yang is very clear. Usually noisy and shouting, saying that the number of guards is too small, and the bronze weapons are not enough equipment, so I try to get more of them. But can Yang Jiao promise her about this, if she doesn't go to the house for three days, the little girl can't get used to it.

Next, Yang Li's decision surprised everyone-

Out of the more than 1,100 captives, one hundred and fifty men were sent to the mountain settlements as prisoners of hard labor.

At the same time, he relieved Hayabusa of his military authority and management authority in the Riverbend, and took his assistants and descendants to the mountain settlement to implement slavery management.

To put it simply, after swallowing the Greywood Tribe, Yang Li finally revealed his evil intentions and brought the Lieshan tribe under the rule of the Riverlands.

But this time, it was not a simple appointment of officials, but the separation of Hayabusa and his people.

In other words, the patriarch of the Lieshan tribe became Hayabusa, and he owned the land north of the Luohe River.

He can recruit troops on his own, and at the same time can build and expand at will, he is the local lord, and his superior, only Yang Li, if he reclaims new land, it is his land, if his army conquers other tribes, that tribe becomes his population and subordinates.

The first semi-feudal princes on the land of the Central Plains were officially born.

Falcon Yi listened for a long time before he understood what Yang Li meant, probably that in addition to gathering his troops during a large-scale battle and obeying the call, he was the emperor of the soil at other times, and no one could control him.

But Falcon Wing is strange, so dignified, why did Leader Yang give me this position.

Yang Li said that although the black-blood tribe was killed by us, Jiang Wansui ran away, and the elite of his lineage also broke through a lot, and over time, he may be able to recover.

This period of time must be very long, and he will definitely not be able to get up in less than a year, but once he does, then you have to exert your strength, because the enemy army coming from the north must hit you first.

Falcon Wing finally understood, and put his fief in the mountain settlement, in fact, there is some meaning of border defense tuntian, guarding the country on behalf of the central power. But compared to the Tuntian soldiers, his degree of freedom is much higher.

"I will teach you how to build a wooden fort, in the future battle, if you can fight it, you can fight, it doesn't matter if you can't fight, burn a fire and put a signal, you can see it on the south bank, and then you will shrink in the castle and wait for my support, of course, this is the worst plan." Yang Li had already divided the slaves who went to the Lishan tribe, and at the same time prepared rich materials for them, plus the craftsmen who had participated in the construction of Luohe Castle, and immigrated together to build the princes of Lishan.

Falcon Wing was very excited, he was still thinking that his exploits in this battle could be divided into more than ten hard servants, he was very happy, but the leader gave him more, the original population of the Lieshan tribe, plus the newly enslaved group, has exceeded two hundred and seventy people, approaching the three hundred mark.

In ancient times, a settlement of nearly 300 people could be considered a medium-sized tribe.

You must know that before Yang Jiao's arrival, Hewandi was just a small settlement with a total of more than 100 people and about 30 soldiers.

Hayabusa had been to the mountains before, and by this time he had already begun to wander the world, planning in his mind which land would be used for farming, which land would be used for building kilns and pottery, and where would be used for warrior training...... As for the cliff with a unique location, he can use the city construction technology given by the great leader to create a fortress whose protection ability does not belong to Luohe Castle.

He and his wives will be stationed in the fortress to patrol the fortress, and he will also have his own elite warriors.

After wiping Halazi, Falcon Wing asked again: "Big Chief, do you still want the azurite mine?" ”

"Well, I was about to say this, the mine does not belong to you, and until new deposits are discovered, similar important resources belong to the state."

"What is a country?" Hayabusa asked.

Yang Li suddenly found that this is a very difficult concept to explain, China has been up and down for 5,000 years, most of the period is a certain dynasty, and then there is a country name, once the son of heaven is a family, even if it is a great unification, there is no concept of a country, but the concept of the dynasty. But where in the world now, at most there is an open civilization Sumerian in the valley of the two rivers, and the other tribes are all as hairy and blood-drinking as the previous river bays.

So Yang Li flickered and said: "Although I am in the river bay and you are in the mountains, but what about it, we are all people in the river bay, and we have not seen the big river in front of us." ”

"See." Hayabusa said.

"It's called the Luo River, it's part of the Yellow River system, and on both sides of the Yellow River, it's our Chinese tribes, which didn't have this name before, but now, I'll tell you......

"I defeated Jiang Banzai, but I won't wipe him out, because because of the regional relationship, we are originally a blood-related race, this was the case before, and it will be even more so in the future, so as long as there is the heart of the river bay land in their hearts, then they are the people of my river bay land, and no matter where they rule in the future, where is the land of China.

"Therefore, the territory built by such a group of people and such a land is called a country by me, a country by me, and a kingdom by each of you, and it is precisely because this country was built by each of us that it is ......."

Hayabusa nodded, "So each of us should do our best to protect her." ”

"That's it."

Hayabusa crossed the river with his men, and the half-slave, half-feudal system began to operate.

Yang Jiao liberated the earliest batch of slaves according to his promise before the war, arranged land for them, distributed slaves, and then let them build houses on their respective lands and reclaim them, and at the same time told them that there would be military training on the flat land near Luohe Castle in normal times, and whether you came or not was your own business.

So this group also became armed aristocrats.

In view of the small scale of the rule, with more than 800 slaves, and only three or four per household, it was more appropriate to call them yeoman farmers living farmers than nobles.

Yang Li did not set up the so-called national name, he didn't want things to change from generation to generation, and he didn't want to establish a dynasty in the world, so Dafang called the name of the country China, which is a regional concept, in case the current system is replaced by other regimes in the future, the new regime will not be boring enough to change a regional name.

Only a nation with fragile self-esteem would forcibly change the name of its capital, denying the countless traces that other civilizations have left on themselves.

As soon as there are many slave owners, the original flat management model is no longer applicable, and it is impossible for Yang Li to manage two hundred slave owners at the same time, so he will not do anything for a day, just listen to the reports of the slave owners.

The boss of the neighborhood committee has the right to review and make suggestions on the population of about 10 households under his rule, but has no direct management power.

Such a person was appointed by Yang Li as the aunt of the neighborhood committee.

As for whether it is an aunt or not, it naturally doesn't matter too much.

There will be enthusiastic people, there will be square dancers, in short, everything needs time to witness.

After Hayabusa left, the leader of the reconnaissance and hunting team in the Riverbend was changed, this man was named Zhang Dabu, a good archer in the original Greywood Clan, who usually patrolled along the river, and when he encountered wild beasts, he organized a manpower attack.

After arranging the founding of the country, the partition, the economy and politics and other affairs, Yang Li felt that he had never been so tired in his life, he looked at Yulia at the gate of the wooden castle with envy, the girl was grabbing the piece of skin on the back of the little tiger's neck, imitating the action of the tigress carrying the cubs, and carrying it around.

Zhen Mi was on the side to rescue the driver, but the effect was not good.

"Yulia, where did you lock up that fat man from before?" Yang Li put down the pen in his hand and asked loudly.

"Cowshed!" Yulia threw down the little tiger and watched it run away without a trace, "Why do you think about that fat man?" He whined all day and all night, saying that it only took one knife to cut him, but what cousin was a heavenly fairy who came down to earth, and she must be released...... It's a pity that he can't protect himself, and he dares to make such a request, it must be a brain watt. ”

This fat man...... He wants to divert water to irrigate the city, his brain is clear, Yang Jiao is not interested in Nalaoshizi's cousin, but he attaches great importance to talents with the ability to build territory, and waved his hand at the moment: "Let's go, let's go to the cowshed." ”
