Chapter 1423: First in the Western Regions
According to the degree of difficulty, the state and county system should be carried out near Chang'an first, and there is no need to force it in the Western Regions, but because of the relationship between the Arab Empire, Li Xiang decided to skip other regions first and take the lead in implementing the state and county system in the Western Regions.
When this news spread in the Western Regions, many people immediately expressed dissatisfaction, especially the people in power in the Western Regions, the power in their hands was not small, if the Tang Dynasty adopted such a policy, then they should not think about taking care of more things.
Don't look at the hands that are not bad now, if the Tang Dynasty really takes over, they will be slowly marginalized here, the first generation may still have some rights, and the second generation is an ordinary person when he is in the sky, if the third generation does not have any enterprising spirit, he may starve.
For these questions raised by the countries of the Western Regions, Admiral Tiance did not deny it, the ugly daughter-in-law always wants to see her in-laws, if she hides it at this time, she doesn't know when she will be able to say this in the future, and when she says this, it will have to be when our military strength is the strongest.
Now that the countries of the Western Regions have gone through this war, coupled with the Huo Huo of the Arab Empire, they no longer have any ability to resist the Tang Celestial Empire, even if some people are not satisfied, but they don't dare to say this, there is still a smell of blood spreading throughout the Western Regions, if you say this, I'm afraid the Tang army will have to uproot your tribe first.
They also heard about the situation around Samarkand, originally thought that the people of the Arab Empire had taken away all the good things, and the Tang Dynasty was likely to fight a loss-making war, on the surface they were victorious, but in fact there was no spoils of war in the Western Regions to carry out such a war, that would be laughed at.
But unexpectedly, the people of the Tang Dynasty did not swallow this bitter fruit themselves, but instead transferred all this to the major tribes around Samarman City, and now it has spread to the entire Andong Governor's Mansion in the Arab Empire.
But all the small organized tribes, they were all given "care" by the Tang army..."
In the final analysis, it is one thing, either you put together all the things on the list according to the requirements put forward by the Tang Army, or you wait for us to come and collect it ourselves, if we come to collect it ourselves, then I am afraid it will not be these things on the list, and you may not be able to afford it at that time.
More than a dozen tribes have been sacked one after another, and the remaining tribes have also understood the determination of the Tang army, and their general has already told them, if you can't do this, then wait for our fathers and villagers to be treated like this.
The Tang Dynasty is still strong, but if there is a war without any returns, then such a war will continue in the future, and we have made such a start, that is, the gravedigger of the entire Tang Dynasty.
As long as the soldiers understand this truth, then there is no need to worry about the rest of the things, these people also know how to do this, so there are more and more things transported back from the Western Regions, as for how those people in the original Andong Mansion lived, it has nothing to do with us.
The city of Samarkand
"I originally thought that the implementation of the state and county system would start in the countries of the Western Regions, but I didn't expect it to start in our place..."
Cheng Chuliang looked at his eldest brother with some incredulity, Cheng Chumo rushed over from the Western Regions, they thought it would be carried out in the countries of the Western Regions, but an order from the imperial court was to be carried out in the Andong Governor's Mansion of the original Arab Empire.
"This is the wisdom of His Royal Highness Taisun, we have already cleaned up the entire jurisdiction of the Governor's Mansion of Anton, all the people dare not do anything to us now, and they don't have much armed force anymore, the young and middle-aged people have lost all their strength on the battlefield, what we have to do now is to take good care of them and divide this place into a large number of state capitals."
Cheng Chumo came here with officials from the central government and all kinds of documents, and now these people are already waiting outside, and they have no idea about being an official in Central Asia, they thought that they had jumped out through the selection of the imperial court, but they didn't expect to come to this place.
"Although that's the case, if you look at the three sentences of those nomads outside, it is possible to use knives with you before they do, including those teenage children, they are not the common people of our Han people, even if they are the magistrates you arranged for them, then you have to find a way to ensure the safety of these people, otherwise, I estimate that those literati are not enough to kill."
Cheng Chuliang stood on tiptoe and looked at the place in the distance, the officials are all thin and tender, not to mention that they are here to manage the Western Regions, even if they live here, it is probably an extremely difficult problem, you must know that the natural environment here is very poor, and they have been adapting to it for a long time after they came, and some people can die if they are not accustomed to the water and soil.
"Of course, we need to equip them with enough guards, but the main thing is that it is always difficult to move some people from the interior at the beginning, but after a while, there will be ethnic integration, and the other areas we occupy are not the same. Is this what it looks like? What's more, the people in power everywhere have to give them an official. ”
Hearing Cheng Chumo say this, these people present nodded their heads, if all the local nobles were to be served in one pot, it would be impossible to carry out it here, and after our magistrate went down, it was very likely that he would be retaliated against by the surrounding nomads.
"How's the problem with the station?"
Cheng Chumo suddenly remembered another thing, the eyes of the civil and military forces of the Chao Dynasty were attracted by the Indochina Peninsula, but they couldn't be idle here, the area of the Western Regions was too vast, so if you want to rule this area well, you must set up military stations in some major places, and then let our people be permanently stationed here, so that they can be controlled, otherwise these lands will be occupied in vain.
"A total of 179 large and small military stations have been set up in various places, and more than 200 are currently under construction, all of which are located on major transportation routes, and if local magistrates call for help, they can guarantee that they will arrive within half a day."
The establishment of these military stations was one of the reasons why Li Xiang was preparing to implement the state government in this area...
