Chapter 862: Follow the Trend

The Qin family has been studying Sinology for a long time, and as far as the Tusi clan is concerned, their knowledge and vision are actually no different from those of the Han people. He devised this plan with great care, like cooking porridge over a low fire, and the porridge is about to boil, and people still don't know it.

After the construction of Lianzhou City, many Tusi, Tu, sailors, Fujian merchants, Cantonese merchants, and Nanyang maritime merchants flocked to Zhu Su's words. There are many people, so there are many disputes in this city. It is not uncommon for the Turks to have conflicts with sailors today, and the merchants and toasts to quarrel with them tomorrow. If it weren't for this, Wang Dabin, the governor of Lianzhou, would not have asked Zhu Su and Li Wenzhong to request the transfer of troops to temporarily serve as government officials and maintain order.

Therefore, when most of the chaos in Lianzhou City turned from a quarrel to a street riot, Wang Dabin and Xie Jin did not react much. There are many fish and dragons in the city, and some chaos is expected by Xie Jin. In his mind, as long as he is good at pressing and surviving this painful period, everything in the city will naturally get better and better. But when the street riots escalated again and turned into murder and anger, all the chaos that had been suppressed by the bullet before was like a grenade that suddenly erupted, and Xie Jin and Wang Dabin were caught off guard.

When Han businessmen came to purchase Nanzhu, it was naturally impossible for them to come empty-handed. They also set up a number of stalls and shops selling sundries in the market. With this lively field in the left, the ordinary people of the various Tu tribes in Lianzhou naturally flocked to all kinds of exquisite Han goods in the field, and many people were attracted by the goods and went to the city to buy them. How long do these Tu people live in the mountains, they are not deeply involved in the world, and they are often deceived and slaughtered by Han merchants.

The people of the Qin clan saw this opportunity. They pretended to be passers-by and mercenaries, and with their efforts, friction between foreign Han merchants and Tu people from various tribes in the city increased greatly.

As a result, the constant friction caused an increasingly tense atmosphere, and finally one day, under the intentional stimulation of pretending to be Han merchant workers, a group of Turkish customers were enraged and insulted the Han merchants. Han Shang originally felt superior to others, how could he endure it, and immediately ridiculed each other, and the quarrel quickly turned into a brawl.

The Qin clan people fanned the flames and added fuel to the fire, the Han traders and the Tu customers who were holding together were hot-headed, and the grudges broke out, and the brawl escalated again, turning into a smashing and looting of the Han merchants, and when the blood and wealth swayed people's eyes, the riot was uncontrollable......

When Zhu Su received the letter, the riot had already stopped. The capital city of Lianzhou was originally the territory of Han merchants, and the number of people who shopped in the Tu tribe was small, and they were quickly repelled by the Han merchants who hated the same enemy. This is the largest riot since the completion of Lianzhou Rongchang, in this battle, the Tu people and Han merchants were killed and wounded, Xie Jin did not dare to slack off, so he hurriedly repaired the book to report to Li Wenzhong and Zhu Su who were outside the city.

"Little Wu, I'm just afraid that things are not good." Li Wenzhong took the letter from Zhu Su's hand, and frowned deeply after reading it. "I have been here for some time as a brother, and I know the temperament of these Tu people."

"They live in the tribe, they have not heard of the king for a long time, and if they encounter injustice, they often do not take a serious shot. and rejoicing in the company of friends, flocking to and flocking. ”

"This time they have suffered a loss, and they may not be able to swallow this evil breath in their hearts, they must be calling for the clansmen to find this field."

"Why don't you and I hurry back to the division and deter the city...... Otherwise, I'm afraid that the city will be out of control. ”

What Li Wenzhong is worried about is the possibility of a large-scale armed fight in Lianzhou City. When it comes to group fighting, it is not only these Tu Tusi, but also the fine traditions of various parts of China for thousands of years. As big as because of acres of land and water sources, or as small as the villagers being bullied by neighboring villages and scolding their own villages, it may cause large-scale fights between the two villages.

This kind of armed fighting, difficult to eliminate, and often extremely tragic, there are two villages in Hunan, dispatched 5,000 people to fight, the two sides fought for two days and one night, guns and ammunition were fired together, and even heavy weapons such as artillery were used.

This is true even in a region like Hunan that has been king-made for a long time, let alone Lianzhou in this era. The Tu tribes in Lianzhou have always been lawless, and the emperor is far away, and he only knows his own toast, but he doesn't know what the emperor is. Now that he has suffered a loss and lost face, it is really normal to go back and call on the clansmen to come back and find the field.

In fact, their lawlessness can also be seen from this letter: although the reasons for the quarrel are on both sides, it is clearly stated in the letter that it was the Tu people who took the lead in smashing and even killing the Han merchant who had a dispute with him. The letter sent to Zhu Su Xie Jin categorically did not dare to add fuel and vinegar, and the rule of law in Lianzhou was not prosperous, and it was not impossible to kill people blatantly.

Xie Jin sent this letter, thinking that he also begged him and Li Wenzhong to return to the division quickly, deter the Tusi of all ethnic groups with the overwhelming power of the army, and stabilize Lianzhou.

Zhu Su touched his chin, thinking about the pros and cons of this matter. In fact, when he first heard about this, his first reaction was to return to the division quickly to stabilize the place.

However, after calming down, he suddenly felt that this matter did not seem to be a bad thing. After thinking deeply for a while, he opened his mouth and said to Li Wenzhong: "Brother Bao'er, my Ming Imperial Court garrison is here for the future expedition to Annam, not to stabilize a single Lianzhou. ”

"If Lianzhou needs to be deterred by a large army at this time, it will be safe. After that day, I will wait for Annan, what will happen to Lianzhou? ”

Li Wenzhong was stunned for a moment, and said suspiciously: "Little Wu, what do you mean by this?" ”

"The rebellion in Lianzhou was all due to the lack of prestige of the government, and the Turks went their own way. The root of the curse has already been buried, and even if I wait to return to the teacher, it will only be to cover it with another layer of soil and bury it again in the ground. ”

"In that case, wouldn't it be better to follow the trend and let the root of this scourge be exposed in broad daylight, and we should cut it off? What we want is the long-term peace and stability of Lianzhou, so why not regret the chaos at this time? ”

"Do you want to ...... Let the Lianzhou government solve this matter on its own? Li Wenzhong was surprised.

"In Lianzhou Mansion, those head-catching officials, as well as the soldiers we left in the city, are actually enough to pacify one or two chaotic people." Zhu Su said with a smile. "The reason why they are panicked is just because they are concerned about the contradiction between the Tu people and the Han family, and they are reluctant to take action, for fear that the contradiction will intensify and ruin our plan to appease the Tusi of Lianzhou and master Lianzhou."

"However, in my opinion, a strong and prestigious government is the foundation of Lianzhou's stability...... Leave this matter to Xie Jin, as soon as he calms down, he will understand our thoughts. Zhu Su said firmly.
