Chapter 255 Policies Towards Ethnic Minorities

Tian Feng said, immediately many people stood up to agree with Tian Feng's statement, Lin Sen knew that Tian Feng was upright and stubborn, if Lin Sen didn't convince him thoroughly, he would definitely lose his temper, so he asked with a smile: "Mr. Yuan Hao, in the four hundred years of the Han Dynasty, the Xiongnu, Wuhuan, and Xianbei ethnic groups have repeatedly violated the border, why do you think this is?" ”

Tian Feng snorted coldly and said: "What else can it be, because these barbarian thieves are insatiable, greedy for the happy life of our Han Dynasty, and intend to occupy our Han Dynasty, make our Han people become their slaves, and create wealth for them." ”

"Hmm." Lin Sen nodded and said, "You're right, but you forgot the most important point." ”

"Please also make it clear to the lord."

"War always kills people, but why are they not afraid of war and are very willing to invade our Han Dynasty? The reason is actually very simple, they are just because they are poor and unable to survive, they will repeatedly commit border violations, the northern grasslands, but as long as a strong wind or snowstorm, millions of cattle, sheep and livestock will die, they will cut off their livelihoods, what if they don't come to grab food, do they want to starve to death? ”

Seeing Tian Feng and the others thinking, Lin Sen continued: "Zilong, do you think you can compare yourself to Emperor Xiaowu's champion Hou Huo and the general Wei Qing?" ”

Zhao Yun shook his head very humbly, he didn't even dare to shout, Lin Sen said: "This official is consciously inferior to one ten-thousandth of Emperor Xiaowu, even the Emperor Xiaowu with great talent has not completely exterminated the Xiongnu, why are you so ashamed?" ”

Lin Sen deliberately raised the tone, and the last sentence was almost shouted, and then he said calmly: "If we send a large army to go to the conquest." It may be a temporary victory, but in this way, it will cost the people and money. Have you ever thought about the soldiers dying on the battlefield? And so what, victorious. The climate and environment of the northern grasslands are very harsh, should we occupy the grasslands and develop the grasslands? ”

Tian Feng also knew that this was something that could not be done, if he really wanted to develop the grassland, he couldn't do it with all the money and grain of the Han Dynasty, so he immediately shook his head heavily, and Lin Sen continued: "Therefore, I think of a way, we can exchange food and money for peace, don't they have no food to eat." We gave it to him, and then opened trade and trade with these peoples, so that we could buy a lot of materials from them, such as furs, livestock, etc., and we could sell them cloth, handicrafts, books and classics of the Han Dynasty, and they would not be restless when they had money and food, killing two birds with one stone. ”

Tian Feng and the others who originally disagreed were completely moved by Lin Sen's words and immediately knelt down. Lian shouted: "The lord is wise, his subordinates are confused, and please punish the lord." ”

"Arise, what is the guilt? You are also thinking about the Han Dynasty, but you must keep in mind that the problems that can be solved with money and food are not problems. ”

I have to say that there are still some advantages as a modern person. At least we can know the reasons for the rise and fall of dynasties. After Guo Jia and others heard this, they also shouted wisely.

sent Li Li in Zhizhong, don't drive Min Chun as an envoy. Taking advantage of this time, Lin Sen also wanted to marry Zhao Yun and Chen. This is the most festive thing in Jizhou Mansion in recent years, and the two generals under Lin Sen's account got married at the same time, which set off a climax in Jizhou, of course, this is only among the people of the system.

Lin Sen also intends to do a big job, the details do not need to be said, in addition to the generals guarding the border, the civil and military officials of the three states all came to congratulate, Qingquan City was dressed up like the New Year, everywhere was decorated with lights, the banquet was held for three days, and it was also a flowing water banquet, whether it was the gentry or the people, they could participate in the wedding banquet, it was to this atmosphere.

Lin Sen also gave Zhao Yun and Chen Zhi a month's vacation each, the newlywed Yan'er, the talented and beautiful, the two couples should be intimate and intimate.

Jizhou ushered in a short period of peace, there was no rebellion inside, no intrusion outside, the soldiers can also take a holiday with peace of mind, rest for a period of time, Jizhou Mansion can also rest and recuperate, and wait and see the current situation in the world.

After half a year of hard work and some bargaining, Min Chun and Li Li brought back the final result, which required to give Wuhuan 3,000 stone of grain and 10,000 yuan every year; The Xianbei and Xiongnu sides need to give 5,000 stone of grain and 50,000 yuan each. And Lin Sen doesn't care about this money and grain at all, the land of Sanzhou, there are countless fertile fields, it is a completely trivial matter, once the two places open up for trade, these money will soon be earned, and even rich and surplus, and can be exchanged for peace, what a good thing.

Qingzhou's titular thorn history Tian Kai has died on the Yellow River, the name of Qingzhou thorn history temporarily fell on Wang Qiang's head, such a high position makes him feel useful, a state thorn history, regardless of actual strength, in name and benchmark Lin Sen is also on par.

Lin Sen always pays attention to Qingzhou affairs, Wang Qiang's power is weak, but he occupies a large area of land, Yuan Shao's power is strong, but he only occupies two counties, with Yuan Shao's character, sooner or later there will be a big battle with Wang Qiang, Lin Sen has an agreement with the Wang family, he can't take the initiative to attack Qingzhou, he must wait until Wang Qiang takes the initiative to attack him, or Wang Qiang is destroyed, he can plot Qingzhou.

"We got Youzhou and Erzhou in one fell swoop this time, and our strength has increased greatly, and the Xiongnu and Xianbei have also reached an agreement with us that they will not violate the border, but this is only on paper for the time being, and the people's land wants to be converted into soldiers, horses, money and food, which can be done for a while, so what I have to do now is to recuperate, accumulate soldiers and horses, and wait for the situation in Qingzhou to change, and then try to develop."

This is Lin Sen's decision made after the return of Min Chun and Li Li, after consulting with Guo Jia, Fu Zhu and other civil officials, as long as he can govern the land of Sanzhou and listen carefully to the suggestions, he will be invincible, and now the actual time has only passed for more than two years, and there is still time to play the game slowly, the road to hegemony is far away, and you can't be in a hurry.

On the other hand, Wang Qiang and Yuan Shao of Qingzhou have been fighting hard, preparing for the upcoming war, Cao Cao of Yanzhou has not stopped the pace of his expansion, the last crusade against Xuzhou failed because of the internal rebellion before the army was hurriedly withdrawn to quell the rebellion, the rebellion was pacified, the internal tends to be stable, and there are Xun Yu, Cheng Yu, Xun Yu such good strategies to assist, Cao Ren, Xu Huang and other good generals led the troops to fight, and he began to think about Xuzhou again.

Xuzhou, one of the thirteen states of the Han Dynasty, has a flat terrain. Over the years, with the benefit of fish and salt, it has always been extremely rich. The princes of all walks of life are salivating for Xuzhou, but they do not take it. is afraid of public anger, but Xuzhou Mu Taoqian made a big mistake, his generals actually killed Cao Cao's father, so that Cao Cao seized the opportunity, and had a reason to send troops, in two years, he crusaded Xuzhou three times without results.

The first expedition to Tao Qian, Tao Qian desperately resisted, and Cao Cao was newly promoted to Yanzhou. There was a shortage of grain and grass, just when his grain and grass were about to run out, Liu Bei led troops to support Tao Qian, and Cao Cao had no choice but to withdraw his troops and stop the war.

The second time, in the autumn of the second year, after the grain was harvested, he immediately sent troops to Xuzhou, Tao Qian made Liu Bei a general, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei as the vanguard. sent troops to meet Cao Cao, but I don't know if it was because Tao made the king's life good, or Cao Cao's character was too poor, and Cao Cao had just set out for a long time. There was an internal rebellion, and in desperation, he could only return to the army to quell the rebellion. Again to no avail.

The third cover was not much different from the first, and Liu Bei led the army to meet Cao Cao. But this time, Xuzhou celebrities, Chen Deng, Chen Yuanlong, the captain of the Diannong School, are not Cao Cao's people. As a person who was respected by Chen Shou, the author of the Three Kingdoms, he still had a strategy, and he came up with a plan for Liu Bei, who was in the history of Yuzhou's assassination, that is, to delay, to guard the passes, to hold the dangerous places, to delay time, and delay until Cao Cao ran out of food.

The result was really useful, and in the end it really forced Cao Cao to retreat from the army. Yanzhou is narrow and narrow, in terms of food supply and Xuzhou, which is rich and wealthy, it is still far away, and there is no harvest in three expeditions, and a lot of food and salary are in vain, so Cao Cao knows that now is not the best time to collect Xuzhou, limited by food and salary, he can not use troops in Xuzhou on a large scale, and understands the stakes, Cao Cao is the same as Lin Sen, concentrating on the development of internal affairs, raising the people, accumulating money and food for soldiers and horses, training troops and preparing for war, and waiting for changes in the situation.

Yangzhou has no owner, the titular Yangzhou Mu Yuan Shu is also blindly pursuing pleasure, living a luxurious life, dozens of wives and concubines in the house, each wearing gold and silver, corrupt, for the Pingding Prefecture of the powerful and powerful do not pay much attention, blindly exploit the people, and the people complain, but Yuan Shu does not care at all, and still has the emperor's dream.

However, at this time, Yuan Shu also ushered in a super general, Sun Ce, known as the little overlord of Jiangdong, Sun Jian died in battle, Sun Jian's old department was annexed by Yuan Shu, Sun Ce was young, and there was a funeral, he needed to keep filial piety for three years, and he couldn't make any changes, and now three years have passed, he came to Yuan Shu to ask Sun Jian's old department, and he also temporarily devoted himself to serving under Yuan Shu's account, but unfortunately the good general did not meet the master.

The news about the battle situation in Qingzhou, one after another was sent to Lin Sen's case, Lin Sen kind of likes this feeling of sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight, Wang Qiang and Yuan Shao have been tense for the past year, and there is the possibility of war at any time, and now it is really time to see the poor dagger, according to intelligence estimates, the two sides will fight a decisive battle after the autumn harvest at the latest, this may be a big war, decide the ownership of Qingzhou, no one will retreat, and retreat means their own demise.

Lin Sen also heard that Yuan Shao had recruited Wang Qiang, which was no different from history, Yuan Shao wanted to take the entire territory of Qingzhou without blood, and sent people to appease Wang Qiang several times, hoping that Wang Qiang could be cast under his account, but Wang Qiang was not stupid, there is only fighting in the country, how can there be a reason for Zen concession, and who doesn't know the fate of Han Fu in history, he doesn't want to fall into such a result, money, their family has invested so much money in the game, and they have just seen some results, do you just give up?

It's really a difficult thing to choose, Lin Sen is also calmly analyzing, there are Yanzhou Cao Cao who can be their foreign aid around Qingzhou, he must support Yuan Shao, and Xuzhou Tao Qian is also interested in Yuan Shao, but he has a grudge with Cao Cao and will definitely not send troops.

In the end, it is Jizhou's own, thinking that Yuan Shao is likely to contact himself, form an alliance, and jointly attack Wang Qiang, so that he will save a lot of unnecessary trouble, but Wang Qiang, who is currently weak, may also give up his face to contact himself, if there is no foreign aid, Wang Qiang is likely to not be able to fight Yuan Shao, Lin Sen will simply wait quietly to see who finds him first.

Sure enough, a month before the autumn harvest, Yuan Shao's envoy came to Jizhou to meet Lin Sen, and wanted to form an alliance with Lin Sen to jointly crusade against Wang Qiang, and the envoy also revealed that Yanzhou Cao Cao had promised to send troops, and was willing to cede Pingyuan County to Lin Sen afterwards.

At present, Qingzhou has two counties and four countries, and the piece of land that Lin Sen wants to get the most is Pingyuan County, which is the gateway for Lin Sen to go out of Qingzhou, which is of great significance for his future plan for Qingzhou......
