"The old man thought that there would be a bitter battle this time, but he didn't expect the army in Shu to be so ......" Looking at those high-ranking princes and high-ranking officials who surrendered, Xu Guang couldn't help but shake his head, he originally planned to wait for this battle and no longer go out, but stayed in the capital to help Li You guard the gate, and by the way, he taught those students in martial arts, but there was not much room for him to play along the way, and he was inevitably a little unwilling in his heart, maybe he would start this plan after pacifying Hedong Dao?

"Now that the King of Shu and Su Zican have surrendered, it is not easy to completely pacify Shuzhong. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info" Jiang Suiyun said, now Xu Guang's task can be said to have been completed, but his task has just begun, he has to work with other officials sent by the imperial court to take over the power of the states and counties of Jiannan Province, Qianzhong Province and Shannan West Province, follow the example of other provinces in Jiazhou to carry out reforms, clean up acres of fields, build new schools, etc., these will inevitably cause the old forces to counterattack, these are things that require a lot of time and energy to solve, but it is much more difficult than Zhou Bofu and Xu Guang's tasks.

"Since Lord Jiang can manage a barbaric place like Lingnan Dao in an orderly manner, it should be easy to solve the problems in Shuzhong." Xu Guang stroked his long beard and said, but this matter has little to do with him, and he will lead the army back to the capital soon after, and Zhou Bofu will stay here to help Jiang Suiyun complete this work.

"Those gentry are easier to handle, but the difficulty is how to deal with those natives." Speaking of this, Jiang Suiyun couldn't help but think of a story from the previous dynasty, it is said that in the previous dynasty, the natives on the mountains of a certain county in Shuzhong were extremely fierce, and the local county officials in order to avoid getting into trouble, so once there was a conflict between the local people and the mountain people, he would often make judgments that favored the mountain people, so as to maintain local stability; One day later, a monkey was stealing in the county seat, and was taken down by the official on the spot and tied to the hall of the county commander, and the county order immediately made a judgment according to the law of the Great Wei, to hit the monkey's board, but the monkey had no fear, saying that it also lived in the mountains, and it was a mountain people, why did he dare to beat him? The county magistrate was speechless when he heard this, so he had to let him go.

Although this incident is slightly exaggerated, it also illustrates the situation in some places in Shuzhong, where the power of the government is weak and cannot effectively manage those natives, so they have to compromise to keep their official positions.

"Since Your Majesty has left General Zhou here, in order to deter these people, General Zhou has not had enough fun along the way, if these people dare to anger Lord Jiang, General Zhou will never spare them." Speaking of which, Xu Guang also has a deeper understanding of Li You's arrangement, firstly, he is old, secondly, he has read too many books, and his temperament is also a little biased towards literati, and his murderous nature is not as strong as Zhou Bofu, and to solve these problems, it is not possible to be soft-hearted, which is suitable for Zhou Bofu, the most murderous general in the Jiazhou army, to complete this task.

And the fact is just as Xu Guang expected, at the beginning, those local leaders thought that this Jia Dynasty was no different from the previous Great Wei and other dynasties, as long as they showed their means a little, the court would feel that the gains outweighed the losses and gave up the plan to bring their land under direct management, and still let them serve as Tusi, they only need to nominally submit to the court and send some local products, they can get rich rewards and canonization of the court, They can still let their family continue to rule the land.

But what they didn't expect was that the new general Zhou Bofu was very different, once that tribe dared to kill the merchants and travelers as before, and violated the laws of the imperial court, he would immediately lead a large army to the door to kill the people, completely wipe out the tribe, drive them from the mountains to live under the mountains, give up the previous way of life, and follow the example of those people in the Central Plains to cultivate the land; Because the leaders of these tribes are often all killed by Zhou Bofu, without the leader, these natives have also become a plate of scattered sand, unable to confront the local government, and the life under the mountain is indeed much more comfortable than the life on the mountain, these people are still gradually adapting to this new way of life, and decades later, when the new generation born under the mountain grows up, these original natives have become similar to the Central Plains.

Zhou Bofu used force to destroy all enemies who dared to resist, and Jiang Sui Yun Zeyong subtly taught these people to adapt to the new life, and he sent people to guide these natives who migrated to the mountains to build houses, reclaim wasteland for farming, and let them abandon the life of slash-and-burn cultivation and drinking blood.

At the same time, Jiang Suiyun also rewarded the local leaders who chose to submit to the court, not only writing to the imperial court to promote their official positions, but also selecting young and intelligent people from their clansmen to enter the Xinjian school to study, which also made many wavering local leaders see another way out.

Those capable officials selected by Li You from all over the country have also implemented Jiang Suiyun's policies very well, and have made great achievements in these remote prefectures and counties, and this experience has also accumulated valuable experience for them, allowing them to grow rapidly and laying a good foundation for their future careers.

Twenty years later, among the six departments of the imperial court, half of the Shangshu and Shilang had served in Shuzhong, which also made many young officials no longer afraid of the sinister nature of these remote prefectures and counties, and devoted themselves to it, hoping to occupy an important position in the court like these people, which promoted the development of these prefectures and counties to a certain extent.

It took Jiang Suiyun and Zhou Bofu more than two years to completely pacify the rebel forces in Shuzhong, and batches of imperial court officials also replaced the Tusi officials who succeeded the father and son to govern these prefectures and counties, which surprised the old people in Shuzhong, and had to sigh that the new dynasty was really far better than the previous dynasty.

Now that the three provinces of Shuzhong have been completely incorporated into the rule of the Jia Dynasty, and the northern captives have long been unable to pose a threat to the Central Plains, then the next thing to be completely solved is the tribes of Hedong Province, Luo Shiji, who has been guarding in Hedong Province for many years, accepted the edict of the imperial court and hurried to the capital, ready to discuss with Li You and others how to completely solve the problems of the Hedong Province.
