This is simply a temptation they can't refuse, it's a temptation they can't refuse no matter what.

Whether it is Li Erbixia or those officials who oppose or those who do not oppose but do not approve, this is like Qin Shi Huang building the Great Wall back then, the world believes that this is one of the reasons for the early demise of Great Qin due to excessive consumption of people's power, but how could a man as eloquent and strategic as Qin Shi Huang spend such a huge amount of people's power to do something that he thought was useless?

In fact, before the construction of the Great Wall, the Qin court held a discussion meeting on the methods and strategies to deal with the Xiongnu, convened a large number of relevant personnel and experts to participate in the discussion, and calculated an economic account, Zuihou's conclusion is that relying on the Great Wall to defend against the attack of the Xiongnu and other ethnic minorities is more than simply fighting and then mobilizing a large army to the north to resist the enemy, to save a lot of money and food, which made Qin Shi Huang order the construction of the Great Wall.

The reason why Great Qin perished was that it was an excessive use of people's power and inhumaneness, and the people could not survive, so it was revealed, if it is said that the strategy of Great Qin against the Xiongnu is not wrong, the mistake is to govern the country with Legalist thought, Legalist thought can strengthen the country in a short time, but it cannot govern the country for a long time, because a country cannot maintain a wartime state forever.

Now Suning also calculated an economic account in the Tang Dynasty, and the results of this bill show that the food of 150,000 people is much more than what is paid, and then, Suning elaborated on the negative impact of the Tang Dynasty's labor for the Turkic captives, that is, the resentment of the Turkic captives against the Tang Dynasty, which is not important. Hate is hate, Datang is not afraid of your hate, as long as you can control it, hate is not a problem, but if a bad one makes them break free from the supervision of the army, and then gather together to rebel, it will be a big deal.

The Spartacus Uprising of the Tang Dynasty...... No...... Rebel!

Therefore, Suning made a series of regulations on the management and work of the Turkic captives, such as working hours of no more than nine hours, so that they should be given more than six hours to sleep, otherwise they would not be able to raise their energy at all. Sooner or later, you will die of exhaustion or rebel. We must adhere to the strategy of sustainable development, squeeze their labor force for a long time, and not let them die and flee for no reason before they are completely drained.

There is also the issue of food. Three meals a day should not be missing. As for the quantity, it is worth living. You won't starve to death, but you don't have the extra strength to resist, which requires a good mastery. At least let them live a little longer, the longer they live, the more benefits the people of Datang will get.

The rest is the reward and punishment mechanism, which is very important, which is conducive to completely disintegrating their cohesion from the inside, so that they do not believe in themselves, and they have no way to unite against Datang, but will rely on Datang and trust Datang! When he said this, Tang Jian finally reacted and questioned: "How can this be done?" Datang drives them to work without rest, it is impossible for them not to resent Datang in their hearts, where can they trust Datang and rely on Datang? ”

Suning smiled and said: "It's easy, it's not difficult, this requires punishment and reward mechanisms, the so-called one by one, perseverance, everything must have a degree, before we overused the labor of the Turkic captives, so it caused the death of 14,000 captives in just one year, which is not good for Datang, although I am also very unhappy to give them the food of the people of Datang, but if you want the horse to run fast, you must let the horse eat well, so that the horse will run willingly, And does not have a bad feeling towards the owner.

Of course, giving them better food will not improve some things, at that time, you need some other means, such as rewards and punishments, that is, work hard, do things with quality and quantity, more than most captives are more haode captives, you can get rewards, for example, a day off, you can take a bath, sleep for a day and a night, and you can eat and drink as much as you like on this day, of course, what they eat and drink is what they originally had, which means that the better they do, the more delicious they are. And if you don't do it, you can't eat, or even eat a little bit, so that you can motivate the captives to work hard and give them hope.

There is also a haode, which lasts for many days and can get a special reward, that is, as the leader of a small team, about ten to twenty people, to lead him, he can instruct the team to complete their own labor, and also transfer the labor of the team leader to this team, that is to say, the team leader not only eats and drinks well, but also does not have to work!

Of course, the squad leader is the limit, and they can't be given the opportunity to lead more people, and these squad leaders are also people who have worked hard for a long time, what will they do when they get the living conditions of haode all of a sudden? This is the saying that the villain has the ambition, no matter how powerful the warrior is in the Tang Dynasty for a long time, he will lose his ambition and just want to live a comfortable life, and we gave them this opportunity, these squad leaders will definitely be powerful, enslave their teams to do things for him, and if he doesn't do anything, he can enjoy the amount of food for twenty people.

Over time, the Turks in the squad will not put their anger on Datang, but will transfer their anger to these captains who also belong to the Turks, when the time comes, they will be the substitutes for Datang, these Turkic captives will only hate these squad leaders, but not Datang, and Datang can also appear as a presiding officer at this time, catch one or two, pay attention, not more, at most one or two typical, not only can highlight Datang's prestige and fairness, Let these Turks feel the fairness and beauty of the Tang Dynasty and the brutality and inhumanity of these squad leaders, and the comparison between the two can be reflected who is better and who is worse.

At this time, these Turkic captives will have a sense of trust and even gratitude to Datang, as for the squad leader, we must always exist, we can kill one or two every once in a while to maintain the image of Datang, as long as these captives are managed in the periphery, they can't let them escape or something, and give them hope, give them hope to be the squad leader, although those ordinary captives will hate the squad leader. But they will want to be the team leader, they will also want to be powerful, and we give them this opportunity!

In the initial period when we dealt with one or two squad leaders, these people would definitely lead the team honestly, but once our supervisors left, the management army of Datang would not participate in their internal contradictions, let them fight in the nest, let them distrust each other, they hated each other, and the more chaotic they were. The more you can't trust each other. We can get the most haode state, the so-called snipe and clam compete, fishermen profit, we Datang. Just be the fisherman! So. Divide them into squads. The appointment of the natural squad leader is slow, and it is necessary to let them know that they can only take on the position of squad leader if they do as much as possible, then for their own sake. They will spare no effort to do things for Datang!

Give them food, give them drink, give them rest, do these three points, that's enough, the rest, let them be suspicious and hate each other internally, they will never be able to gather together to fight against the Tang Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty will not worry about these Turks uniting to resist the Tang Dynasty, thus causing another war, two-pronged, from the outside to benevolence, from the inside to disintegrate them, this period is the best time to start, we pressed them very badly before, and at this time suddenly relaxed, their accumulated anger will be released, They won't want to rebel!

This is just like the original Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, Su Qin and Zhang Yi's combination of vertical and horizontal strategies, Zhang Yi dealt with the six states of Shandong led by Su Qin, that is, with the strategy of distant friendship and close attack, the internal contradictions between the six countries that are not harmonious are singled out, supplemented by the strong strength of Qin, with the strategy of distant friendship and close attack to disintegrate the alliance of the six countries of Shandong, after Su Qin's death, the alliance of the six countries of Shandong completely collapsed, thinking that Su Qin was a person with the seal of the six countries is so shocking and crying ghosts and gods, there is only one person in China since the ages, Only he had the means to unite the six countries against the Qin State, and the national strength of the Qin State at that time was no longer something that a single country could confront it.

Su Qin wanted to save the Six Kingdoms against the Qin State, but the late Master Zun once told me that a strong city is often broken from the inside, no matter how strong its appearance is, there will be traces of the inside, how majestic the alliance of the Six Kingdoms is, but unfortunately the internal contradictions of the Six Kingdoms are also full of contradictions, and before the Qin State was defeated, he began to think about how to carve up the Qin State, which gave the Qin State a chance to breathe, disintegrate the Six Nations Alliance, divide and break it, Su Qin's hard work came to naught, and Zhang Yi won the victory, That's how I came up with this strategy. ”

Suning spoke a long story for a few quarters of an hour, and then all the thoughts were said, but almost the entire hall did not come back to their senses, they were all savoring Suning's strategy, and after a while, someone gradually came back to their senses, and cast a look of extreme appreciation or extreme jealousy on Suning, Li Erbixia looked at Suning eagerly, and then cast his fierce gaze to a corner of the hall, and secretly made up his mind.

Tang Jian also quickly came back to his senses, and then stroked his palms and sighed: "Such a strategy, no matter where it is placed, has the value of use, as long as you change some methods, Zhang Yizhi's so-called strategy of long-distance and close attack can be used so far, Su Hou, Ling Shizun is not the heir of the pre-Qin Zongheng family?" Learned the art of vertical and horizontal? ”

Suning shook his head: "Since Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty deposed the Hundred Schools, the Hundred Schools of Thought have gradually declined, and almost all of them have disappeared into history, what can be passed on?" It is not clear whether the family teacher is a family heirloom, but everyone can understand these truths, but there are many scruples in using them, and there are many unscrupulous means, and the family teacher has warned more than once that it should not be used indiscriminately, otherwise it will hurt the heavens and the peace. ”

Tang Jian nodded: "There is a lot of research on the art of vertical and horizontal, and its most significant feature is to achieve the goal by unscrupulous means, but in the troubled times, it can be imagined that it is now a great unification, and my Tang Dynasty also has external enemies, there are a lot of them, which is similar to what Su Hou said, there is no shortage of jackals, tigers and leopards, and the external strategy of the Tang Dynasty should also rely on all the places that rely on the vertical and horizontal arts, after all, if it is not my race, its heart will be different, and we are dealing with foreign races, not our own race."

Bixia, the minister thinks that the words of the Marquis of Sanyuan are great and good, and they should be used, when they can make the greatest use of Turkic prisoners of war to work for the Tang Dynasty, and even go to Zuihou to abolish the conscription of the people of the Tang Dynasty, then my Datang will be a merit for all generations, and the people of the world will be grateful to the Tang Dynasty and will not rebel! ”

As soon as Tang Jian's words fell, Li Jing got up and seconded the proposal: "Bixia, the minister seconded the proposal!" ”

The Ministry of Works' Shangshu Wushi Tong also said: "Bixia, the minister seconded the proposal!" ”

Hou Junji, the secretary of the military department, said: "Bixia! The minister seconded the proposal! ”

Then a group of military bigwigs and people with real power among civilian officials also seconded the proposal, and even many military generals such as Wei Chigong and other fierce generals immediately proposed to lead the army north to capture the prisoner, arrest him 500,000 and come back, immediately promote labor reform throughout the country, and then exempt from forced labor, so that everyone can create a country without forced labor and enjoy this supreme merit together.

It's not that they don't have heads, it's really something that all the people praise, in this era, a person can get it once in a lifetime, and it's already a green smoke on the grave of the ancestors. (To be continued......)
