Chapter 240: Textual Advice

Fang Wenwen stroked his beard and said with a smile: "The most convenient way is to get an order from the Son of Heaven to move some people from the densely populated provinces here, just like last year. The general's holy family is long, and a concert enters Chang'an, and there are tens of thousands of Han people here within a year. ”

"If you don't want to reproduce the tragic scene of last year, you just need to prohibit the old and weak from immigrating to the river, Chang'an already knows the tragic situation of the old and weak immigrants in the river, Your Majesty is the king of the Holy Ming, and he will definitely take care of the people, and will not forcibly drive the old and weak across the green mountain."

Ma Lan smiled, shook his head and said, "It's hard to say." The heart of heaven is unpredictable, if Your Majesty dies again like last year, and tens of thousands of old and weak people die on the road, the name of a certain family will be completely confirmed. This method is absolutely impossible, and a certain family does not dare to take risks. ”

Fang Wenwen's eyes flashed, and he smiled: "Since the general cares about the people and refuses to take the risk of playing the Son of Heaven, then he naturally has to find another way." One of them is Xuntian, a veteran soldier of the border army in the world, who is still only allowed to come to the river to apply, which was promised by His Majesty, but now it is just an old thing to revisit. If these people can come to the river to guard the town, it will be a great help to the stability of the land in the river. ”

Ma Lan nodded, waiting for Fang Wenwen to continue.

"If this matter had been carried out last year, it would have been extremely convenient, but last year's matter involving the immigration of hundreds of thousands of people from the Eighth Army in the river was delayed. Today, although it is a rehash, the situation is very different. ”

Fang Wenwen looked at Ma Lan and said with a smile: "General, you are the envoy of the Five Towns Jiedu, and Li Jing, the deputy envoy of the Pinglu Jiedu, is your subordinate. The Son of Heaven has been gracious, and is ready to follow the example of immigrating to Hezhong, and immigrate the people of Guanzhong to Liaodong and Liaoxi on a large scale, but it has not been implemented for the time being due to Zhang Xun's obstruction. ”

"General! Li Jing showed his strength in the Northeast, opening up a situation that had been stalemate for many years, and for those veterans of the border army who had meritorious service, there was one more place to apply for Xuntian. Compared with the river, which is blocked by roads thousands of miles away, I am afraid that the northeast is more attractive to the old soldiers. That's why I said that this year is different from last year, and that if you want these veterans of a hundred battles to immigrate to the river, the general must also send a letter to Chang'an, asking the Son of Heaven to forbid the veterans to go to the northeast to apply for Xuntian, and they can only come to the river to apply for Xuntian. General Jane is in the emperor's heart, and a letter can solve this trouble, it depends on whether the general is willing or not. ”

Ma Ling twitched the corners of his mouth and smiled bitterly. Isn't that for him to be the wicked!

Since the Son of Heaven began to recruit soldiers, the Anxi veterans are all Long March athletes, and after retiring, they have settled in the four towns, they are only separated from the river by a green mountain, and they will not go to the northeast to apply for Xuntian; However, the veterans of the border army in Shuofang, Longyou, Hedong, Fanyang, and Pinglu let them choose the two places in the northeast and Hezhong to apply for Xuntian, and it is conceivable what choices they will make.

Li Jing fought against the Khitans and Xi people in eastern and western Liaoning, and won successive victories, which was a good thing for the Tang Dynasty after all, but Li Jing's victory became a real obstacle to his plan to let the Han family erlang permanently occupy the river.

Without Li Jing's victory in the northeast, the old soldiers had no choice but to come to Hezhong to claim Xuntian. Now Li Jing provides them with one more choice, the black soil in the northeast is not necessarily as fertile as the land on the oasis, and the distance from the countryside is tighter, which is obviously more attractive.

Permanently occupying the land in the river, Ma Ling is thinking about the future of the Han nation, in fact, in terms of the current era, there are still many places that can be developed within the territory of the Tang Dynasty. Jiannan Province, Shannan Province, Jiangnan Province, and Lingnan Province are all vast and sparsely populated, and the more than 50 million Dingkou in Datang is far from filling these lands within the territory. Although the problem of land annexation is serious, as long as these areas are fully developed, it will not be a problem at all to resettle the people of Gyeonggi Province in Kannai.

The purpose of the migration to Hezhong was not to solve the problem of land annexation in Guanzhong, but to stop the expansion of Islamic civilization into the traditional sphere of influence of the Tang Dynasty.

In the final analysis, this is the selfishness of him, a person from later generations, and for the people in the territory of the Tang Dynasty in this era, the gains and losses of the land in the river are not so important at all.

It is unreasonable to blame Li Jing, after all, he is also on the battlefield with a knife and a gun, opening up land for the Han people behind him. The land of the northeast will eventually be incorporated into the territory of the Han family, but it will not be automatically obtained.

However, Li Jing's victory on the Northeast Front objectively prevented the possibility of the veterans of the border army moving to the river.

As for asking the Son of Heaven to order that only the old soldiers should be allowed to apply for Xuntian in the river, Li Longji of the Tang Dynasty would definitely be able to do this kind of thing, but he Ma Lan would not be able to perform such a concert.

The veterans fought for the country, and they didn't owe him the slightest bit of Ma Lu, and their military exploits were earned by hanging their heads on their belts, and Xuntian was the reward they deserved. In this matter, it is difficult for these Han family sons and daughters who have survived a hundred battles, and he Ma Lan can't do this kind of thing.

Therefore, the matter of veterans from all over the country immigrating to the river is naturally an empty word, just talk, and there is no possibility at all.

……

Fang Wenwen was still smiling, obviously not finished speaking. Scholars are not good at this, and Fang Wenwen is not exempt from vulgarity, if there is anything to say, it is good to finish it directly, but he has to hide it like this.

"Such a difficult thing for the old man, a certain family can't do it. Is there any other way, sir? Ma Lu looked at Fang Wenwen with a sincere look of asking for advice.

Fang Wenwen smiled and nodded: "Yes!" ”

"Sir, please."

Fang Wenwen said with a smile: "The eight armies in the river are eight fierce tigers, the general only wants to put them in cages, but they are not allowed to roar the mountains and forests, what is the reason?" ”

Ma Ling frowned and said, "Sir, please make it clear." ”

To be honest, he was indeed a little confused at this time, and he didn't know what kind of medicine this guy was selling in his gourd.

Fang Wenwen said with a smile: "Hundreds of thousands of people in the Eighth Army in the river, the general only thinks about letting them plow the fields and build houses, plant mulberry hemp, and live and work in peace and contentment, he really underestimates these Guanzhong children." Judging from the text, these hundreds of thousands of Han people are enough to command millions of alien races! ”

Ma Luan's expression moved slightly, and he listened quietly.

Fang Wenwen laughed, "There are many examples of a smaller group ruling a larger group. Let's just say that Turkic, the blue Turkic nobleman Ashina clan was originally in the west of Jinshan, and then annexed Ding Ling, destroyed Rouran, unified the southern and northern parts of the desert, and there was a Turkic khanate. Ashina's high nose and blue eyes are only one of the dozens of tribes in the south and north of the desert, and they are alien in the south and north of the desert, but they can command dozens of times the tribe of their own for hundreds of years! Nowadays, the languages and customs of the Turkic tribes with different surnames are all mixed with the Ashina clan, except for the black hair and black pupils, the customs are no different from the Ashina clan. ”

"This is close, if you say far, you can say Zhaowu nine surnames. The surname of Zhaowu Jiu was originally a branch of the Yue family, and it was later broken by the Xiongnu, and he moved to the river, and then became the lord of the river. The indigenous people under the jurisdiction of the nine surnames are dozens or hundreds of times more than the royal family, and they are still subject to the nine surnames of Zhaowu until today. ”

"To rule over a foreign race, at the beginning it is controlled by force, and in time it can be done with the same track and the same text. What the Ashina clan and the Zhaowu nine surnames can do, doesn't the general think that the people of the Tang Dynasty can't do it? ”

Ma Luan's eyes shone slightly, nodded and said, "Sir, let's be more detailed." Take this fire search place as an example, how to let the people of Guanzhong rule this place? ”

Fang Wenwen said with a smile: "This is simple, it is nothing more than the wisdom of the various departments of the grassland, it only depends on whether the general can look down on Huayi's distinction." ”

"Now the men who are looking for people have been almost killed by the Turkic soldiers, and women and children are everywhere. The general could divide a part of the Anhua army and disperse it to various parts of Huoxun, following the methods of the Turks, and turning these women and children into slaves. ”

"In this way, these women and children will not starve to death, and I will have tens of thousands of more people in Datang. In the opinion of the text, three or two thousand people are enough, and it will not affect the foundation of the Anhua army. And the Anhua army is all poor households, and there are many unmarried men, and with these fire search women, it is also a big trouble. ”

Ma Ling thought for a moment and said softly: "If all the unmarried men are married to Huoxun women, what about the women of the Han family in the Anhua Army?" ”

Fang Wenwen smiled and said: "General, the Eighth Army has come far to the river, the road is far away and the future is uncertain, and those who can marry have already been married before the government counts the population, where are there still many young Han women!" The ones brought over were all yellow-haired girls who were reluctant to give them away, and there may not be one of the ten young women who didn't leave the cabinet. ”

When Ma Lan heard this, he couldn't help but smile bitterly. So there is such a thing! It seems that it is inevitable that the son of the Han family will marry a Sogdian woman, otherwise it will cause great trouble.

"Women and children need to rely on men, and these people give the Han people slavery, which can be regarded as giving them a way to live. These people can also farm and weave, and it is not useless in Datang, but the children born in the future are mongrets. However, from the point of view of the text, I hope that all those on the right are Hanmin, those who can speak Chinese are Hanmin, and those who practice etiquette are Hanmin, and it is not necessarily necessary to have more pure blood. ”

Ma Lan nodded, he agreed with Fang Wenwen on this point.

The Han nation was originally gradually expanded in the process of annexing the surrounding ethnic groups, and the Dongyi, Xirong, Nanban, and Beidi, these barbarians in the earliest period, did not all become part of the Han nation. The Han nationality is not so much a category of blood as a category of culture.

He himself had a beautiful and lovely half-race son, and he naturally did not think that the mixed blood of the Han-Mins and Sogdians was a mongrel.

"General, the eight armies in the river are all children of Guanzhong, and now this kind of resettlement is just an expedient measure, since they are military members, how can they just plough the fields and build houses, and it is their responsibility to expand."

"In the future, every piece of land occupied by the army, a part of the women and children can be left, and then the Han people of the Eighth Army will disperse and rule."

"School, imperial examinations, etiquette, these are carried out slowly step by step, even if the people no longer move from the east of the Green Mountain, the Eighth Army in the river can rule millions of alien races, a hundred and ten years have passed, the bloodline is fused, there are no alien races, only the children of the Han family."

"And if the general is like this in the river, the Han people east of the Green Mountain may not be reluctant to move here, after all, the Han people have come here to come to the uncle." (To be continued.) )
