Chapter 87: The Eve (5)
When Ninishi and Ashina Du Ni Nei heard the news, they were overjoyed, and the two of them immediately set off, but Ni Nishi did another thing, and sent people to infiltrate the territory of Khorasan and Sestan, threatening that the Tang Dynasty would soon help us restore the Persian state.
When he had finished giving the command, he fell down to the southwest and wept bitterly.
The restoration of the country was hopeful, and Persia was southwest of Tocharo, so this act was made. But Ninishi didn't expect this behavior, which doomed his fate.
Li Wei was very disgusted when he heard it, it was our Tang Dynasty who sent troops to help you restore the country, and your Lao Tzu died in Chang'an, our Tang Dynasty, if you want to cry, you also have to cry to the East. Li Wei has not found a good solution to the nomadic people, so he can only use some local methods, and when he is strong, he will cut and dismember, and then immigrate to fill the congestion. The Persians had a well-developed agricultural system, and even if there were nomads, they were semi-nomadic, semi-sedentary. But Li Wei thought in his heart that they were all a group of wolves that could not be fed.
As a result, some revisions were made to the originally formulated policies.
After receiving the two of them, they were happy and angry, and after the cold noise, they said: "Once upon a time there was a powerful country, and the old king died, and the ministers were ready to support a prince in the country to ascend the throne. At this time, there was a prince in a foreign country, who heard the news of his father's death from illness, and brought many troops from foreigners as the capital for the king. The vizier was pressured to accede to his request, but made a condition that the crown be placed between the two lions, so that the prince had to retrieve the crown from among the lions. But the prince did it bravely. ”
Nirvana was weeping silently again.
Persia has been established for a long time, and the first dynasty was the Meni-Empire, which was established for more than 100 years and allowed Alexander to perish. After Alexander's death, the Macedonian Empire was quickly divided among the various countries, and Alexander's general Seleuci created a Persian dynasty centered on Syria. In just over a hundred years, the rest and Great Xia** were invaded by the Kushan Empire in the east, and the expansion of the Roman Empire was faced in the west, and was finally divided between the Roman Empire and the Rest Empire. The Sabbath Empire and the Roman Empire were bounded by the Euphrates River, with the capital of Ctesiphon, and at its peak encompassed all of Iran and the surrounding areas. However, due to the invasion of the Kushan Empire, the national strength declined, and the warlords in various places divided it. More than 300 years later, Ardashir, the son of the local governor, was overthrown, and this was the Sassanid Empire.
The prince Li Wei is talking about refers to Bahram I, the *** monarch of the Sassanid Dynasty, who actually did nothing in history and did not reign for a long time. However, in the Persian literary chronicles of kings, he is made the tenth king, and the deeds of Shapur II, the ninth king of the Sassanid Empire, are added to him.
But the Chronicles of Kings has a great influence among the Persians, just like the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, when Cao Cao is mentioned, he is a white-faced traitor, and when he mentions Zhang Fei, a reckless man who kills pigs and sells dogs, the historical truth is degraded, Li Wei understands some of the situation in Persia, and he can't figure out the truth or falsehood, and he also takes the Chronicles of Kings as an important reference.
It doesn't matter if it's true or not, but Persia used to run rampant in all directions, and when it was his turn, he was like a dog, running from east to west, and the Nirvana was crying miserably.
When his crying was a little quieter, Li Wei said again: "You have been in my court for a long time, and you have read many books, you should know that these two people, one is Wang Zhenxi, the grandson of Wang Meng, and the other is Chen Qingzhi. Chen Qingzhi is still a cripple, and he can't help but be weak. But when facing dozens of times the enemy several times, he is never afraid. You are the future of Persia, and show your courage to your people, so that your people may have the confidence to fight for you. ”
Others are not qualified to say this, but Li Wei has the authority to say this. I am the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, and I am personally on the front line, you are just a fart Persian prince, why are you greedy for life and afraid of death hiding in Tocharo, and you don't even dare to show your face?
"Yes," Nirvana replied honestly.
I don't know if I can really touch him and start talking about his plans.
After discussing for most of the day, the Tang Dynasty army made another move. Qi Ming, Xi Feng Lei, Tuoba Po, and Yeci Mingchuan led 5,000 Tang Dynasty troops into Tochar. It was still mainly based on the reorganization and training of the army, and the Tocharian countries and the Turks transferred 50,000 troops for training. More troops could have been transferred, but the Tocharian countries were mountainous and lacked food and grass, which limited the number of troops that could be accommodated.
This movement is a bit loud.
Salem was quick to get the news.
But then Li Wei did another thing to confuse him.
It was not an easy task for so many people to migrate to the Shiba River, and it was so far away. Qin arrived in Qinghai in 185 days, that is, he ran out on horseback, more than 6,000 miles of land, for the people, how far away?
Liu Bei fled from Xinye, taking hundreds of people with him, and he could only walk ten miles a day. Special circumstances can't be counted, there are many people, and there is no organization, the more chaotic it is, the more chaotic it is, and the result is a turtle run. This time it was arranged calmly, and this situation will not occur. And the details have also been taken into account, such as baggage, most of the people are poor, but a few people have brought a lot of belongings, so they forcibly threw away these belongings in Qinghai and compensated you all to Broken Leaf City. In addition, there are daily necessities, such as clothes, clothes to bring with you, as well as tents and daily necessities, quilts, which are placed on the cart, pulled by a special person, and distributed to the people when the night comes, and then folded again in the morning, and then put them in the car. Then the elderly and children, except for the baby to be taken care of by the mother, all brought to the car, first to the Broken Leaf City, specially numbered, one household No. 1, how many Jiazi, how many numbers of Yichou, divided into sixty groups, otherwise there are too many people, there are many names and repeated, it is not easy to manage. To lead the people, the same number to arrange the place. A group of 100.
Kept moving lightly. But the weather is not optimistic, no matter how you go, you have to go through the cold winter on the road.
On average, it is good to be able to maintain a journey of fifty or sixty miles a day, which means that it may take four months to complete this long journey.
So several things became the key to health, food, cotton clothes and quilts, charcoal, and medicinal herbs.
Guanzhong is not counting on this year, fortunately, the Hexi Corridor and the Western Regions are now planting a large amount of cotton, and the imperial court can fund it. But it is still not enough, at most it can maintain the use of the displaced people. There are many people who are reluctant to leave, can they really let them freeze to death in Qinghai? It is also necessary to transfer a large number of cotton clothes and quilts from Hedong and other places in Henan.
Besides, the trouble is food.
It is half full, and a person who comes up in ten days will also consume one bucket of grain, and four months is twelve buckets. What about hundreds of thousands, twenty thousands, and tens of thousands?
Li Wei thought of another way, torch relay! There are many post stations on the avenue, such as from Yumen to Shazhou, Yuguan 65 miles to Changle County, Changle County has two north and south roads to Shazhou, the north road from Changle Station 30 miles to Jieting Station, 25 miles to Licorice Station, 25 miles to Changting Station, 40 miles to Baiting Station, 20 miles to Hengjian Station, 20 miles to Shenquan Station, 40 miles to Shazhou City Station. The same is true for South Province. The same is true of several important arterial roads in the entire Western Regions, which are sixty or seventy miles long and twenty miles short, and there is a post station.
The relay begins.
The first step is to transport grain from the Hezhong area, which is also not easy, and the number of grain transported is huge, possibly reaching more than 500,000 stones, and one truck of five stones, it will take 100,000 trips. The countries apportioned, the number can barely be scraped, and it can be transported back to Broken Leaf City. It was divided into several steps, the first step was to mobilize the food for the winter and the food on the road, send some soldiers, and then support some manpower, one place by one relay. For example, after sending people from A to transfer grain to B, they will quickly return, and B will transfer grain to C. Consumption is saved, and even people are close to each other, and they can return home for the night at night. The pressure was not heavy at the beginning, but the pressure was very heavy later, but when it approached Broken Leaf City, Tang Bing responded and shared the pressure.
It is also a labor-intensive matter, but in the case of the Tang Dynasty taking the lead in the river for them, the people have no complaints.
The second step is for the victims to arrive next year, and the victims themselves will bear the responsibility for the transportation of food, which is about their own belly, and the victims will also be motivated.
The second is the main road from broken leaves to Qinghai.
One east and one west relay, scattering grain in more than 200 post stations along the way, this is more difficult. If 100,000 people come, they need more than 100,000 stone of grain, 200,000 people need to consume more than 200,000 stone of grain on the road, and 300,000 people need to consume 400,000 stone of grain. Add to that the grain and grass of the servants and livestock, and add more than one-third of the loss.
The difficult part is the beginning, how many are transported on the road of the first post station, and in the end, it is not difficult, only a few thousand stones, and it can be transported to each post station on the spot. But there is an advantage, there are large armies at both ends, which can be used to temporarily serve as soldiers, and reduce the burden on various places.
There is also charcoal, which does not need to be transported from both sides, and where there are trees temporarily, it is cut down and baked into charcoal. Otherwise, the cold winter comes, the people walk, the body is warm, as long as the weak old people and children are picked up, there will be no big accidents, the worry is to sleep at night, the body blood flow is slow, a day into the deep winter, there may be more than ten degrees below zero, more than 20 degrees, there is not enough charcoal for heating, the night has to do something.
In order to alleviate the occurrence of baggage and accidents, even a group of families will be broken up, men sleep together, women sleep together, although there are many people will be crowded, but they can also warm each other, and save quilts.
Therefore, all this must be completed at the end of October, otherwise in the winter months, the roads will be frozen, which will increase the difficulty and cost of transportation.
But it won't be so smooth along the way, and even Li Wei thought of a way to set up an idol.
Find a few people with good conscience and good moral character from the disaster victims, and spread their deeds. It is the inspiration from later generations, the spirit of Lei Feng. I remember someone questioning, Comrade Lei Feng's donation of material and food stamps in a year is more than the income of one class, what is going on?
More seriously, what the society needs is not Lei Feng, but the spirit of Lei Feng, whether it is Zhang Feng or Li Feng, or whether there is such a thing, is it really important? And this spirit is the real value. Just like Ali, Islam praised him as a saint, and how many pitiful deaths he had, but his wife was innocently killed, so can he endure it without revenge? Another example is Jesus, crucified, you preach that the cult doesn't kill whoever you kill, and then Central Europe did much more than the Roman governor of the southern province of Israel, why didn't you say it?
Later, people became smarter, and the truth was turned out from the dust of history, and no one mentioned it anymore, and people's mental outlook became very good, really good, so good that no one dared to help the old man when he fell on the road.
Li Wei came out again, selected these people, selected some of their deeds and myths, and then compiled them into pamphlets, and sent people to publicize them all the way, learning from Wang Moumou, learning from Zhang Moumou, and learning from Li Moumou. Let the deeds of these people become a kind of example, even faith, to educate the people to love the country, help the old and the young, care for others, love each other, help each other, unite and humble, and even sacrifice oneself for others. This is used to reduce the contradictions of the people in the process of migration.
After reading the letter, Hei Tooth Changzhi first cried and laughed, and then shouted loudly: "Wonderful, wonderful." ”
Talking about Confucius, but the common people are as knowledgeable as him, but now it has become something that ordinary people can do, which can not only play a role in migration, but can even be promoted to the whole country. Start scheduling now.
The Great Migration began.
It's huge.
It was slightly better than Li Wei expected. First, Li Wei has prestige among the people, which makes many ordinary people believe in it. Second, pyramid schemes have also played a role. The third is that the black tooth Changzhi cooperates well, and endures until September passes, there is no movement, many people see that the weather is getting colder and colder day by day, what to do if they don't go, do they really want to freeze to death in Qinghai. It's close to September and a half, that is, Hei Tooth Changzhi gave the deadline, and if it's late, it's really cold, and it's not easy to arrange. As we approached the middle of September, more people finally agreed to move to Broken Leaves, seeing no hope.
There were more than 257,000 people.
There are still many people who have returned to Guanzhong, and Qinghai still has some people who do not give up. Seeing that the victims had left, they could no longer let the 20 or so people left behind freeze to death, so they made up a group to accommodate more than 60,000 people, and gave them fields and houses to live in. The others, after some consultation, gave some supplies for the winter and told them to return next spring.
The pressure was very great, and countless manpower and livestock were mobilized, not only two, but also almost all the large animals and vehicles in the vicinity along the way. The amount of money spent on this migration has reached an outrageous amount.
But it doesn't end there.
In addition to the 10,000 troops transferred to Tocharian and the Hezhong area, more than 10,000 soldiers were also sent to escort the grain at both ends, and at the same time, the 10,000 troops left behind began to cultivate the fields, and in winter, they could freeze insects and some wild grasses, and the soil could also freeze crispy.
Then build houses, a group of 100 households, and build a village. It's too much, and you can't go more than a dozen miles to grow wheat. Too little is not self-protecting. So they were divided into groups of 100 households, and the outside was built with a wall two zhang high, and the inside was a cross street. After all, there are nomads all around, and when they encounter a big cold, the livestock freeze to death, and there is nothing, but the Han people are mainly farming, but they have food to tide over the crisis. With high walls to protect themselves, seeing that it is difficult to attack, can reduce their greed.
But it is divided into two parts. Starting from Atami, it goes all the way to Shattered Leaf Castle and extends to a hundred miles west of Shattered Leaf Castle. Further west is the hometown of the ten surnamed Khans, there are many disputes, and the broken leaf water reaches the middle reach, the water potential becomes smaller, and it takes the initiative to give up. However, on both sides of the lower reaches of the Broken Leaf River are tall mountain ranges. On both sides of the river are cultivated land, and on both sides, you can only half-plow and half-graze.
So he used the qanats to draw out the groundwater for irrigation, leaving a large open area on the periphery, and came to break the leaves, and Li Wei thought of immigration. I don't know the scale, but I have done some preparations. For example, a lot of alfalfa and rye seeds were brought and planted artificially. It is not planted randomly, but divided into areas, each area is divided into two, and each part is cut into two, one is grazing, and the other is reserved for green fodder. The other half is set aside for the coming year, taking turns to recuperate. The people didn't need to be nomadic to raise some livestock.
This is not the first time this policy has been used, and it has been promoted among party members in Jishishan.
Of course, it is also hoped that the Turks will learn. It's a bit harder, and there's no need to run around. But after settling down, the imperial court can be effectively managed.
In order to gain time, almost all the soldiers gave up their training, transported food supplies, built houses on cultivated land, and even hired the surrounding Turks to help.
This movement was much greater than the movement of training troops for Tocharian and the Transoxiana region.
When Salem heard this, he relaxed again.
Train the army, this is the Tang Dynasty and Da Shi to fight for territory, Hezhong and Tocharian are the sphere of influence of the Tang Dynasty. The big food is expanding, and if the Tang Dynasty doesn't ask at all, wouldn't it be strange. This is exactly the case in history, seeing that he attacked Tocharian and Hezhong, the Tang Dynasty did not move at all, and the general Qu Dibo arrogantly shouted and hit China. Fortunately, he is very clever, and if he really crossed the Green Ridge, he would not know how to die.
But just in case, he reported the matter to Damascus and asked for reinforcements for a group of troops to be stationed in Khorasan. But in addition to this movement, both sides of the Wuhu River were quiet in this winter, and both sides were busy with their own affairs, Salem continued to exterminate the people who rebelled, and Li Wei continued to arrange immigration, and there was no sign that the war was coming.
