The next day, Tuoba Yujun held a great court meeting, and was "forced to the palace" by a group of ministers led by Tuoba Gu, a lord in the north.

And Tuoba Yujun had already prepared, last night he had received a secret report, and after discussing with Liu Wuhuan and others, he decided to strike first, and arranged three hundred sword and axe men near the council hall to kill all the ministers who opposed him.

Looking at Tuoba Gu, who had been pressed to the ground and was struggling, Tuoba Yujun took the ring-headed iron knife handed over by his subordinates, and said with a cruel smile: "Tuoba Gu, the widow didn't want to kill you. Why don't you know how to lift up like this! Conspiracy to usurp the throne and launch a coup d'état, you are a rebellious minister and thief, you are really innocent! ”

"Humph! Tuoba Kuojun, the soldier can be killed but not humiliated! If you kill me, see how you will face the ancestors and your ancestors under Jiuquan in the future! "Tuoba is willing to die rather than give in.

But Tuoba Yujun was even more ruthless, cutting off Tuoba Gu's ear with a knife, licking the blood on the blade, and saying: "Win the king and defeat the king." Tuoba Gu, the widow believes that if the person who fails today is me, the end will definitely not be much better than yours! Come on, drag Tuoba Gu down and cook it! ”

Tuoba Gu began to curse loudly and unkindly Tuoba Kujun, but no matter how he struggled and cursed, he was finally put into a frying pot and cooked alive.

What Tuoba Kuojun did was truly outrageous.

And with the death of Tuoba Lone, after the ministers in the court of Daiguo who dared to admonish were all executed in one go, Daiguo became a mess.

Tuoba Gu's subordinates rebelled, and many tribes in the Mobei grassland raised troops under the banner of avenging Tuoba Gu. However, some Hu people began to move south to contact the Wei state, hoping that the Wei state would accept their submission.

Su Lin, who was guarding the annexation of the state, didn't know how to deal with it for a while, so he had to temporarily place the Hu people outside the city, and at the same time sent a letter to the imperial court.

Girder, Fengtian Temple.

Ran Min shook the piece in his hand and said, "Zhuqing, you all have to discuss it." Tuoba Yujun executed a number of civil and military tribes including Tuoba Gu, Xianbei Helai Ministry, Bexian Yu Ministry, Helan Ministry, Pu Buru Bu and other large and small tribes have rebelled, and the rest of the Hu people of all ethnic groups have also responded, chaotic, and now the Mobei grassland has been in chaos. ”

"Now many Hu tribes have gone south and asked to belong to our Wei State. There are more than 30 tribes of the Hu people who want to be annexed, with a population of more than 250,000, so in your opinion, do I want to accept the Hu people's subordination? ”

Hearing that there was a civil strife in Daiguo, Wenchen was very worried, because after more than a year of recuperation, the development of Wei had just been brought back on track, and it was not easy to fill the hole in the national debt owed by the previous years of war.

Mobei is different from the previous Guanzhong, the previous Xiliang and Qiuchi countries.

The land in the north of the desert is almost all grasslands, deserts and lakes, the land is vast and sparsely populated, almost all of them are barren land, and there is no rice millet growing in that kind of land. This is still secondary, the key is to spend huge manpower, material and financial resources, and to accept such a place, I am afraid that the gains outweigh the losses.

Not to mention anything else, Mobei is full of Hu people, the north is vast, these Hu people are unruly, even if they set up county management in the local area, I am afraid that they will rebel from time to time, and when the time comes, I am afraid that the entire Great Wei will be dragged down.

Also, there is the issue of money and food.

Spring ploughing has just ended, but that doesn't mean that the farmers are idle and have nothing to do.

Fighting a big war requires a lot of money and food, especially the big war of the expedition to Mobei.

Think about Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, in order to fight a life-and-death battle with the Xiongnu, the two generations of his grandfather and father, and the national strength accumulated by Wenjingzhizhi for decades were all consumed.

You must know that war has never been a simple military competition, Xiao He is heavier than Han Xin in Liu Bang's heart, and Li Shanchang is heavier than Xu Da in Zhu Yuanzhang's heart. If Han Xin and Xu Da are fists, then Xiao He and Li Shanchang are the hearts that supply blood, and their ability to make money and things is the fundamental determining factor.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks he can accept the subordination of the Hu tribe in the north!" Li Nong was the first to stand up and said: "At present, the generation is in turmoil, and Tuoba Yujun is squeezing out the foreign Hu people, this is a good time for us to destroy the dynasty." And as long as these Hu people take the lead and act as guides, our Wei army will drive Mobei, and the resistance of plowing and sweeping the cave will be greatly reduced! ”

Ran Min bowed slightly, but was noncommittal.

At this time, Shang Shu ordered Cui Hao to object again: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that Da Sima's words are inappropriate. We don't know what the situation is in the country at the moment, just relying on the intelligence of the secret guards and hearsay, in my opinion, it can't be done. ”

"Master Cui, are you doubting the intelligence ability of the secret guard?" Ran Min frowned.

"I don't dare. But Your Majesty, even if the information is true, Tuoba Yujun executed Tuoba Gu, brutalized Zhongliang, and forced many Hu tribes to rebel, but just by virtue of this, he accepted the Hu people's subordination, and the minister thought it was still very inappropriate! Hu people are rebellious, they were forced to join my Great Wei in a desperate situation, if one day, my Great Wei is poor, who knows if there will be a recurrence of the Yongjia chaos? ”

The ministers have admonished.

"yes. Your Majesty, you must be cautious about the attachment of the Hu people. These hundreds of thousands of Hu people must not be accepted lightly. In the past, the counties in the northwest were all Rongju, with more than one million mouths in Guanzhong, and half of Rongdi lived, which finally led to the later Wuhu Chaohua. Please think twice, Your Majesty, and don't repeat the mistakes of the previous dynasty! ”

Ran Min pondered for a moment, and then said, "All of you should have heard of the "Theory of Migration", right? ”

Cui Hao lowered his hand and said: "Back to Your Majesty, the minister has read "The Theory of Migration". This is the work of Jiang Tong, a native of Chen Liuyu. After the incident of Qi Wannian, Jiang Tong, who was the crown prince washing horses, is famous in the world for the above table "Treatise on Migration"! The article mentions that 'there are more than 8 million mouths in Guanzhong, the rate is much less, and Rong Di is half', saying that Rong Di is a human-faced beast, and it is recommended to get rid of the Hu people. ”

Ministers who have read history books know about this.

In view of the fact that a large number of nomads moved inward and lived together at that time, and that the Later Qi Wannian and other people were in turmoil at the border passes, Jiang Tong put forward the proposition that "all of them can be sent to the country, return to their native areas, comfort the thoughts of the homeland, and relieve the worries of our Chinese fibers".

"The Theory of Migration" was naturally unacceptable when the Western Jin Dynasty was ruled by Jia Nanfeng at that time, and the Wuhu Rebellion occurred in less than ten years.

"Cui Lingjun, do you also advocate like this?"

"Yes." Cui Hao said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, the minister's proposition is this, a small number of Hu people, we can accept, for example, the Hu people in Hexi and Liangzhou, most of these Hu people living in the northwest are native-born Hu people, and they can accept the edict of the imperial court and are willing to accept the advanced culture of our China." Great Wei can accept them, but it must not accept Rong Di in the north! ”

"I think there is a good sentence in "On Migration". The husband is a state, and the trouble is not poverty but inequality, and the worry is not widowhood but anxiety. With the breadth of the four seas and the wealth of the scholars, how can they be captured, and then take enough! All of these can be sent out, return to their native territory, comfort the thoughts of the land, and relieve my worries about Huaxia Fiber. Benefiting this China, to Sui Quartet, virtue and eternity, in the calculation of the long. ”

"The current population of my Great Wei is not too much, and even the Han is less than the early Jin Dynasty, after the troubled times, the etiquette collapsed, and the population withered, how can I accept so many Hu people?"

Hearing this, Ran Min was silent.

At this moment, Cheng Wei came out in the imperial history and said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that what Lord Lingjun said is extremely true. There are pros and cons to the internal relocation of the Hu people, but now it seems that the disadvantages outweigh the advantages! At that time, there was always a debate on how to deal with the Hu people who moved inward, in the Western Jin Dynasty at that time! ”

"Jiang Tong, Fu Xian and others' "Treatise on Migration", that is, to move the Hu people back to the grassland, prohibiting nomads and farming people from living together, but the minister thought that this was unrealistic for the situation at that time."

"First, the cost of relocating the Hu people was too great, and it was a decision that outweighed the cost. Second, at that time, there were many Hu slaves in the family, and it was not in the interests of the family to migrate the Hu people

。 Third, if the migration Rongdi is not handled well, it may also cause fire and cause greater turmoil. ”

"Now more and more Hu people are moving inward and want to belong to the Great Wei. But how does His Majesty intend to place them? Will it be settled in the frontier, and in the areas of Bingzhou, Youzhou, and Heshuo, or will it be moved to the interior? Your Majesty, with all due respect, this is a dilemma. ”

"If the Hu people are placed in the frontier, after a long time, there will be a rebellion, Your Majesty wants to assimilate these Hu people, let them accept the advanced culture of my Han family, learn Han etiquette, learn Chinese language, and speak Chinese, but I don't know that if the border is dominated by Hu people, I don't know if it is our Han people or Hu people who will be assimilated at that time. And what about once migrating to the Central Plains? The people of the Central Plains still hate the Hu people, if Your Majesty does this, I am afraid that it will cause dissatisfaction among the people of the Central Plains, and the Hu people are rebellious, most of them are human-faced and beast-minded, I am afraid that it will cause a lot of unnecessary trouble. ”

That's what Ran Min is worried about!
