Liu Jian's words can be said to have touched Zhang Liao's nerves and made him grateful.

He really didn't understand that he was not familiar with Liu Jian before, why did Liu Jian use him so much? He went to such great lengths for him!

Of course, if Zhang Liao is also a time-traveling person, if he knows what he has done in history and his achievements after middle age, then it is estimated that he will be able to understand why Liu Jian attaches so much importance to himself.

"Cheng is so kind to Liao, Zhang Liao has nothing to repay, this time he will go to Bingzhou, he will definitely do everything assigned by the prime minister, and live up to the expectations of the prime minister."

Liu Jian nodded with satisfaction and said: "Wenyuan, I am waiting for you to make achievements in Bingzhou, and then I will call you back to Chang'an, what do you need to go to Bingzhou this time, just tell Guo Fengxiao, I will send someone to greet him in advance." ”

Zhang Liao immediately thanked him and got up to say goodbye.

However, before leaving, Zhang Liao took a look at the tea leaves and tea sets on Liu Jian's table, and said, "Can the prime minister's tea be given to the last general?" ”

"Of course you can, but don't you like it?"

Zhang Liao replied: "The prime minister said, tea is more mellow than wine, more evocative, so I want to give it a try, quit drinking tea in the future, and every time I can see the tea given by the prime minister, Liao can also remember the prime minister's teachings to Liao today." ”

"Wen Yuan is really a person who values love and righteousness, okay, then I'll give you more of this tea."

"Looking back, if you don't have enough to drink in Bingzhou, just ask Guo Fengxiao directly, he drinks too much of this thing now...... And they are all high-quality goods from the Hebei Commerce and Trade Association, and he also pays ...... credit"

"What do you think this is like what a thorn should do?"

Zhang Liao couldn't help but be happy when he heard what Liu Jian said.

At this moment, his heart was full of ambition and pride, and he wanted to go to Bingzhou to build a strong Bingzhou army for Liu Jian.

A woman is a person who pleases herself, and a person who is a confidant dies.

Now Zhang Liao's heart is full of this feeling.

……

After Lu Bu and others surrendered to Liu Jian, Liu Jian began to prepare these surrendered troops of the Xiliang Army in the next step.

It is impossible for Liu Jian to leave all of these troops and generals to fill the army, there are too many troops, and the country's financial burden is too heavy.

After a careful count, the troops brought by Lu Bu, Zhang Liao, Zhang Ji, Dong Min, and Dong Huang brought ...... Together with the Xiliang soldiers who surrendered during the battle with Hu Zhen, the total number reached 60,000.

The remaining tens of thousands of Western Liang soldiers are currently scattered in Yongzhou, and some are fleeing in the direction of Liangzhou.

Those Western Liang soldiers who fled in the direction of Liangzhou, Liu Jian didn't care.

With Xu Huang guarding Chencang, most of them couldn't escape back, so they could only be stranded in Guanzhong.

However, the Xiliang army scattered in Yongzhou is likely to become a destabilizing factor in public order in the Guanzhong region and a scourge to persecute ordinary people...... Or become a bandit and a grass bandit, think about it carefully, these people are very harmful to the people.

In order to reduce the instability in the territory, Liu Jian immediately ordered that notices be posted in all counties and counties in Guanzhong, allowing these Western Liang soldiers to surrender.

As long as they are willing to surrender, all the blame can be acquitted, and they can be reassigned to the army and distributed food.

Of course, there is a time limit for this matter, and those who do not return after the time limit will be classified as traitors, and they will be sent to the army to eliminate them in the future, and they will be killed.

As soon as this move came out, it really made many Xiliang soldiers scattered in the pass come to Shun in the starry night.

And these ordinary Xiliang Army, Liu Jian selected the elite among them to form a new Xiliang Army, and scattered them in the battalions under his command.

The sergeants of the Xiliang Army are different from ordinary Hebei sergeants, although they are brave and warlike, their temperament is too wild.

The Liangzhou sergeants, like the generals of Xiliang, were unruly and arrogant.

Moreover, the people on the border of Liangzhou are very different from those of the Central Plains in terms of perseverance.

If they are allowed to gather in groups, they may cause some kind of chaos in the future.

For those generals in Xiliang, although Liu Jian saved their lives and was willing to appoint them, Liu Jian was not at ease about these people, because the Liangzhou people were relatively weak in their sense of righteousness.

In case they were in a bad mood one day and suddenly gathered together to rebel, Liu Jian had to spend a lot of effort to clean them up, so he scattered them in various camps and could not communicate with each other, so as to minimize the frequency of their troubles and play a stabilizing role.

I have to say that Liu Jian has good intentions.

In addition to the elite soldiers of the Xiliang Army who were collected in the battalions, and the remaining Xiliang soldiers, Liu Jian asked them to re-farm and farm, and registered them in the register, wanting to place them in Guanzhong or the Sanhe area.

In fact, it is really a bit troublesome to let the Xiliang Army farm in the fields, these veteran ruffians are the main ones who kill people and cause trouble on the battlefield all year round......

Now, you let them farm collectively?

Whether they are willing to do it or not is one thing, and whether they can do it or not is one thing.

Regarding Liu Jian's proposal to let the Xiliang army work in the farmland, many people expressed their worries.

But Liu Jian said that he has thought about this matter carefully, so please don't worry too much.

The Xiliang Army is all from the border counties, but in Hebei's Bingzhou and Youzhou, why are the people there not from the border counties?

Moreover, now many tribes of Xianbei, Wuhuan, and Xiongnu have been conquered by Hebei and classified into the Han nation, these people are not even Han people, are they more difficult to manage than the Xiliang army?

At least the Xiliang soldiers still belong to the people of the Han Dynasty!

After many tribes such as the Xiongnu, Xianbei, and Wuhuan belonged to the Han Dynasty, the Hebei Government Office had registered them and included them in the people's commune system.

supervise them by the collective management methods of the people's communes, teach them to farm, cultivate their sense of collective pride, and at the same time manage their lives and monitor their behavior and educate them in the manner of commune supervision...... Although there were occasional rebellions of the alien race during this period, there were no major incidents.

Therefore, Liu Jian felt that it was the right time to apply this system to the Xiliang Army, one had experience to follow, and the other system was feasible.

In this way, the rebellion of the Xiliang Army can be limited to the greatest extent.

When everyone heard this, they all said that it made sense.

However, Xun Yu said a difference between the Xiliang Army and the alien race.

"Prime Minister! The last official thought that although the Xiliang army was similar to Xianbei, Wuhuan and other ethnic groups in many places, they had another difference, that is, the Xiliang soldiers who were now wanted to be returned to the imperial court and let them work as farmers were all brave soldiers who fought on the battlefield all year round. ”

"And most of the aliens we surrendered are ordinary people, of course, the aliens are all immediate people, and ordinary people can also fight, but compared to the Xiliang sergeants, they are still a little behind."

"After all, the living combat power of Xianbei, Wuhuan and the Xiongnu has almost been wiped out by the prime minister in several major wars that year."

"The remaining men today are too far from back then, although they also have combat power, they are no longer afraid."

"Therefore, in terms of restraint, although there is no difference between the two sides, once the crowd is gathered to rebel, the Liangzhou army still has an advantage compared with ordinary aliens, and its combat effectiveness is not bad!"

Xun Yu's words made Liu Jian suddenly realize.

He gently tapped the table with his hand and said, "Wen Ruo's words, it is really old and serious. ”

"Yes, it is indeed impossible for the Xiliang Army to be comparable to ordinary sergeants."

Xun Yu said: "The commune can indeed form an effective management of the Xiliang soldiers, but the restless hearts of these Xiliang soldiers still need to be appeased, at least to let them have a sense of belonging to the Han Dynasty and agricultural life." ”

"The last official thinks that the people's commune can give these Xiliang soldiers enough protection in terms of food and clothing, but if you want these old soldiers to fully integrate into the people's commune system and concentrate on farming, you still need to give them some fierce medicine."

"Oh, what does Wen Ruo think?" Liu Jian seemed to be interested in Xun Yu's remarks.

After all, after all these years of cooperation with Liu Jian, Xun Yu's ability has become stronger and stronger, and his horizons have become more and more broad.

Sometimes his insight is really not lost to Liu Jian, who is a traverser.

Xun Yu said: "Encourage intermarriage! Let these Xiliang soldiers have wives and children, as long as they have women and children, they can slowly wear down the hearts of these soldiers. ”

"Even if it can't make them completely settle down, at least it makes them have a concern in their hearts, and it also makes them have a scruple in their hearts."

When Liu Jian heard this, he roughly understood.

"Wen Ruo means that he wants to give the People's Commune the position of matching single men with women?"

Xun Yu nodded and said: "If there are constant disputes and wars today, for most ordinary Li Shu, marrying a wife and having children has become a luxury, and a man without a wife and children as a fetter is like a wild horse that has escaped from the leash, which is not easy to control, only by governing people with a small family, so that they have a bond, can they serve the great country wholeheartedly!" ”

Xun Yu's words are very pertinent, not to mention the troubled times, even in the peaceful and prosperous times, it is also a luxury for the people at the bottom to marry wives and have children.

After all, in this world, the higher the level of people, the more they can monopolize most of the resources, and in this era, women are also a resource.

Not to mention the Yue Wang clan, it is equivalent to a part of the small peasant landlords who can monopolize most of the women's resources.

There are more than three or five women in their family.

Although the Han Dynasty strictly enforced the system of wives and concubines, for those with money and resources, these were not a thing.

Even if people don't give a name, they can still include any woman in the house.

In this way, there is a shortage of unequal distribution of women's resources in society.

And from whose mouth did these scarce resources come from? Naturally, it's the men at the bottom

Now the world has become a troubled era, marrying a wife and having children has become a luxury for the lowest men.

Such social development is not conducive to the stability of people's livelihood, but also to the population structure of the Han Dynasty.

It is extremely detrimental to the development of the country as a whole.

"It seems that the matter of marrying the people at the bottom is indeed a top priority, Wen Ruo means that he wants to take this opportunity to marry the soldiers of the Xiliang Army and let them have children, so that they can wear off their wildness, let them be content with farming, and will not wantonly cause rebellion, right?"

Xun Yu said: "Now Wuhuan Xianbei and many tribes of the Xiongnu have also become the children of my Han, they began to receive Sinicization education, learn the knowledge of my Han, after one or two generations, they will be completely integrated into my Han nation, including Xun has been in charge of Youzhou for many years, and found that there are some barriers between the Han people and these foreign races. ”

"First of all, the people of the Han nationality are reluctant to intermarry with people of different races, because they have some discrimination against these people in their hearts, and people of different races are not willing to intermarry with the Han people, so it will delay the process of integration between some Han people and them."

"The Xiliang people have lived in the border for a long time, and their behavior is not as restrained as the Han people in the Central Plains, and the meaning of the last official is that they might as well be divided into several tuns, arranged to go to the border counties of Bingzhou and Youzhou, and let them be in the local tuntian, and then the commune will collectively assign them with foreign women to marry and have children, so as to strengthen the speed of integration between us and the foreign people in the north, and completely integrate the foreign races into the population structure of the Han Dynasty."

Liu Jian nodded, and said: "It's really a golden word, for the marriage of the low-level Li Shu, the imperial court can't ignore it in the future, you have to come up with a charter, including rewarding young people for early marriage, birth tax exemption, birth subsidies, and you must find a way to deconstruct marriage, and try to control women to be accepted away by the wealthy family!" It is necessary to come up with a copy that can be realistically implemented! ”

"No!"

Everyone admired Liu Jian's method of governance.

This Prime Minister Liu Cheng is really different from ordinary people, it can be said that everything is very small.

Even the marriage of ordinary people, he has to think about them.

What else in the world is there that Prime Minister Liu can't worry about?

It's not that Liu Jian wants to worry about it, it's just that there are some seemingly ordinary things that actually affect the future of a country or a nation.

The population structure must not be neglected, and we must encourage preferential marriage and childbearing, and more marriages and more children.

Only when the basic number of people is raised can the country be strong.

As long as there was a sufficient population, the Han Dynasty would have enough spare strength to continue to expand and conquer outwards and continuously export its culture overseas.

The matter of the Xiliang soldiers, Liu Jian handed it over to Xun Yu to do.

Subsequently, Liu Jian found Dong Min and Dong Huang in front of him.

For these two people, Liu Jian has decided to reuse.

Dong Zhuo, as a Taifu, will not care about anything in the future.

The future of the Dong family falls on these two people.

Liu Jian's reuse of them is also to give Dong Zhuo an explanation, so that Dong Zhuo can live in Chang'an City with peace of mind.

And with the help of two people from the Dong family, it will also be of great help to him to recover Xiliang in the future.

Through conversations with the two people, Liu Jian found that Dong Min was also not young, he didn't want to continue fighting in the army, and he also wanted to stay in Chang'an for a few days to spend a few days.

So Liu Jianyi named Dong Min as General Zhaowen, the Marquis of Guannei, and was not responsible for any specific affairs, but just took the money to enjoy and live a stable and peaceful life in Chang'an.

As for Dong Huang, he is still very young and energetic, and he will not retire so early.

So Liu Jian asked him to follow him and continue to fight in the world.

Dong Huang is a young man, compared to Dong Zhuo, who is already old and weak, his enterprising spirit is still very large, he took the initiative to ask Liu Jian for help, and wanted to patrol the land of Guanzhong to gather those defeated soldiers who have not yet come to surrender.

Hearing that Dong Huang took the initiative to ask for help, Liu Jian immediately said that he would let him lead the 3,000 men and horses of his headquarters to inspect all parts of Guanzhong, and if he saw the Xiliang army that had formed a thief in the place, he would gather them all, and if the other party did not surrender, he would be responsible for exterminating them on the spot.
