Chapter 340: The so-called autonomy
The results of the battle of Luo were soon spread to the Daxingtai Mansion and the Wangfu of Xiangyang, and the report of Xie Yuxin arrived in Xiangyang almost at the same time, and the situation reported on both sides said that the most critical thing was that the king of Lhasa, the king of Ali, the king of Yaze and the king of Yalong Juea who ruled Tubo were all killed, and their families also suffered a devastating blow, except for the old people and children, the rest were almost all killed, it can be said that the nobles of Tubo suffered an extinction blow, and the army of Tubo no longer existed.
These two reports indicate that the iron-blooded army's war to conquer Tibet and recover Longyou Road has achieved a decisive victory, indicating that Tubo will return to the rule of the Tang Dynasty.
Cui Anqian, Zheng Congyan and others, still couldn't suppress their joy, and hurried to the palace, although Li Rupei's words not long ago were a great wake-up call for them, making them calm and calm, but in the face of a decisive victory, they were still difficult to suppress.
Entering the wing room of the palace, the two unexpectedly found that Li Rupei's expression was a little serious.
It is said that Li Rupei has already seen the battle report, he should be happy, why does he have such an expression.
Li Rupei looked at Cui Anqian and Zheng Congyan, and slowly spoke.
"Father-in-law and Zheng Ge are always happy for the victory of Tubo and Longyou Dao, after half a year of conquest, it is not easy for the soldiers of the Iron Blood Army to achieve victory in such a short period of time, it is indeed a thing worth rejoicing, but have you found some problems from it, and how to govern Tubo and Longyou Dao next, it is also the most important problem faced by the Southern Dao Daxingtai Government, if you are not careful, there may be riots in Tubo and Longyou Dao."
Cui Anqian and Zheng Congyan looked at each other, and they didn't find any problems.
"The Han people who were plundered to Tibet suffered too much, their wives were separated, their families were ruined, and they had to adapt to the harsh climate and environment of Tibet. Many Han people died in Tibet because it was difficult to adapt to the environment, not to mention them, even the well-prepared soldiers of the Iron and Blood Army, and nearly 1,000 people died because they did not adapt to the climate and environment. It will be difficult to resolve for a while, and if they are allowed to vent their hatred, I am afraid it will cause an uproar in Tibet. ”
Li Rupei raised the letter in his hand.
"In the battle of Luo, the Han soldiers who fought back killed nearly 20,000 Tubo soldiers, and when the soldiers of the Iron and Blood Army had stopped, they were still unwilling to put down their weapons and attack the Tubo soldiers who had lost their ability to resist, and the battle of Luozhi ended. In the process of encircling and suppressing the Tibetan nobles, these Han soldiers were even more vicious, and the Tibetan nobles were almost completely killed, and some nobles' homes were empty. Although Gao Chibang, Xie Yuxin, Zhu Wen and Qin Erhei did not specifically mention who did it in the letter, it can be imagined that it must have been the Han people who were looted to Tibet. ”
"The Tibetan nobles had a lot of slaves, but the number of commoners was not much. Slaves do not have the slightest personal freedom, and Gao Chibang said in the previous letter that it is good for slaves to be whipped to death. It is a very common thing to be skinned and cramped, and the Tibetan nobles even showed human skins to slaves, so as to deter slaves, this cruel means, how can the Han people who were abducted to Tibet bear it, even if they were the rebels at the beginning, I am afraid that they have never heard of such cruel things. ”
"Maybe I saw these things with my own eyes, Gao Chibang and others did not clearly stop the killing of the Tibetan nobles, which is understandable in the process of conquest, but after the end of the conquest, if such things continue to happen, it is a little too much to say, the looted Han people, the hatred can not be resolved, it will be a huge hidden danger, the Tubo people will not rebel in the future, and the Han people will be killed."
"This situation must be stopped, it must not spread, and the Tibetan people must be reassured and calmed down."
"The situation in Longyou Road is slightly better, after all, this is the territory of the Tang Dynasty, and there are still a lot of Han people, but those Han people who were plundered by Tubo and Turkic are in the same miserable situation, and they must also be prevented from blinding their eyes with hatred."
When Li Rupei said this, Cui Anqian and Gao Chibang both nodded, in fact, Li Rupei also suffered such a thing, all the family members were killed by Tian Lingzi and others, but when Tian Lingzi, Ma Tengyun and Liu Jurong and others were escorted to Xiangyang, Li Rupei did not insult them, and escorted them to the tomb of King Wei in Huolong Village to kill them, which was considered to give them a good time, and Li Rupei was not widely implicated, and even Liu Jurong's family was not implicated, so that they could continue to live a peaceful life.
Therefore, when Li Rupei said such words, Cui Anqian and Zheng Congyan could understand it.
"Tubo has been wiped out, continue to use the original name, obviously inappropriate, a certain idea, change Tubo to Tibet, the external name is Tibet Dao, the same set up the degree of the Yamen, at the same time still the relationship between the region and the number of population, the establishment of Fuzhou County, of course, Tibet and the interior must be different, Gao Chibang and others also said in detail in the letter."
"As for the Tibetan government officials, some people think that the Han people are the main ones and the Tibetan people are supplemented, and the Han people cannot completely rule Tibet, and they must absorb local civilians and even some nobles who are willing to cooperate, and at the same time, Tibet will completely abolish slaves, and the first duty of the government is to count the population and make a roster."
"The 10,000 officers and soldiers of the iron-blooded army led by Qin Erhei stayed in Tibet for three years, in view of the situation in Tibet, the special envoy for these three years, the jurisdiction of Tibet was dominated by the iron-blooded army, and the government assisted them.
"Qin Erhei's next responsibilities are mainly in three aspects, one is to quickly follow the division of the region, the establishment of the Jiedu Envoy Yamen, Qin Erhei concurrently serves as the Tibetan Jiedu Envoy, and at the same time set up the corresponding prefectures and counties, from the iron-blooded army soldiers to draw candidates, the formation of government at all levels, the second is to clear the remnants of the resistance in Tibet, and at the same time to abolish the slavery system in Tibet, let the slaves have the identity of civilians, divide the few lands, so that Tibet can stabilize in the shortest possible time, and the third is to clarify the borders, Send Predator soldiers to build castles on the border and patrol the border at all times. ”
"In order to accomplish these tasks, Qin Erhei must closely rely on the Han people who are willing to stay in Tibet, and at the same time unite the Tibetan civilians as widely as possible and get their support, so that Qin Erhei can gain a foothold in the shortest possible time, and even firmly control the situation in Tibet."
"You all know the poverty of Tibet, which requires the financial and material support of the Daxing Taiwan government, do not regard this support as a burden, this must be done, of course, the Han and Tibetan people who are willing to migrate to the interior can come and go freely, the government will not interfere, the fewer people who can stay in Tibet, the better, the fewer the more convenient it is to govern."
"The governance of Longyou Dao is handled in accordance with the previous practice, the restored Anxi Protectorate and the four towns of Anxi, do not play the role of the government, and the Jiedu makes the Yamen and Fuzhou County Officials focus on local affairs, with Xie Yuxin concurrently serving as the envoy of Longyou Jiedu, and comprehensively supervises many matters in Longyou, and the key location of the iron-blooded army is the four towns of Anxi, which is the same as the situation in Tibet, Xie Yuxin also needs to send sergeants to constantly patrol the border, and at the same time build a castle to guard the border."
"Xie Yuxin's 20,000 troops are all stationed in Longyou Dao, the situation in Longyou Dao and Tibet is different, the place is very large, and there are also Turkic and northern feudal towns in the east, and there are many problems, some of which must be solved after the Tang Dynasty has completely stabilized and prospered."
"Specific governance measures, a certain has been drawn up, you take a serious look, modify the inappropriate places, and quickly send them to the four towns of Luo and Anxi, and send them to Qin Erhei and Xie Yuxin, and at the same time you can draft the documents, let Gao Chibang and Zhu Wen lead the soldiers of the Iron Army, they are in Luo, I am afraid that they are impatient to wait, and they look forward to coming back as soon as possible."
"The Daxingtai government quickly drafted a memorabilia, reported many things to the emperor, and at the same time asked the imperial court to confirm the candidates for the envoy of the Tibetan Jiedu and the envoy of the Longyou Jiedu, and these things should not be delayed, the sooner the better."
On the one hand, Cui Anqian and Zheng Congyan felt surprised, they didn't expect that Li Rupei had already made a comprehensive arrangement, and he also personally drew up a Chen, and put forward specific requirements for the governance of Tubo and Longyoudao, on the other hand, it was also the aspect they didn't understand the most, why did Tubo change its name to Tibet, and what does this Tibet mean.
Maybe Li Rupei also thought of this and spoke again.
"By the way, I just said that Tubo will be renamed Tibet, which actually means that Tubo is the treasure of the west of the Tang Dynasty, and now the treasure of this piece is owned by the Tang Dynasty, and the others are not interesting."
Li Rupei finally finished speaking, and Cui Anqian followed closely to speak.
"The things arranged by the prince, Daxing Taifu can do it in the shortest possible time, at the end of the month is Enke, the iron-blooded army exterminated Tubo and recovered Longyou Dao, which can be described as a double happiness, there are two things to remind the prince, one is the marriage in early October, Daxing Taifu is also making corresponding preparations, and the second is the influence of the prince in the Tang Dynasty, which is already impossible to stop and contain, and I think that the prince should consider the future."
After Cui Anqian finished speaking, Zheng Congyan nodded and did not speak, it seems that these opinions are the result of discussion between the two.
Li Rupei nodded, he knew what Cui Anqian meant, maybe at this time, he really needed to think about how to carry out the next stage of action. (To be continued......)
