Chapter 346: Zhang Cambodia's Persuasion to Give Up Yaozhou (1)
"Zhang Aiqing, you came to see me today, is there anything wrong?"
Li Jing looked at Zhang Cambodia in front of him and asked.
"Sage, the minister heard that Kunmi is attached, and you have given them generous treatment, and you even plan to send people over to help them reclaim the tuntian!"
Zhang Cambodia didn't go around in circles with Li Jing, and directly chatted with him about the benefits that Kunmi attached to Li Jing gave.
"That's right! From now on, Kunmi is the territory of my Datang, and the leader of Kunmi is the history of my Datang Thorn, give them some preferential treatment, this is not a normal thing! ”
Li Jing plans to send troops to garrison this time, and by the way, he will reclaim tuntian there, and in addition to planting rice, he can grow soybeans, corn and other crops.
In order to increase the grain production in Queensland, the grain production in Queensland will increase, and the grain obtained by the imperial court will also increase, and the people will be rich, and the Tang Dynasty will be rich and strong!
Of course,Sinicization is also indispensable,Li Jing will increase the intensity of sinicization。
"The minister has a saying, I don't know whether to say it or not?"
Zhang Khan asked.
He is against it, giving too many benefits to foreigners, just as the so-called non-own race, their hearts will be different!
You give them so much benefit now, and when you fatten them up in the future, they will be even more powerful, and they will definitely be treacherous!
In turn, harm gives them benefits and supports them to develop and grow.
At the beginning, Emperor Taizong was also regarded as his own compatriots, but once Emperor Taizong went to the palace to escape the summer, and was almost killed by the barbarians in Chang'an.
Since then, Emperor Taizong has changed the situation before Han Di does not distinguish between the two and beware of the barbarians!
With such a bloody lesson, why did the sage not take it as a warning, but instead imitate the mistake of Emperor Taizong at the beginning.
When Li Jing heard it, he knew that it was definitely not a good thing, and he didn't want to hear it at all.
Li Jing smiled: "Then don't say it!"
Zhang Cambodia was stunned for a moment, he never thought that Li Jing would answer like this.
This made him unbearable on his face, and he couldn't get off the stage a little!
If you don't say it, you won't be able to eat well and sleep well if you hold it in your heart!
"This matter is about the future of Datang! I have to say!"
Zhang Cambodia still decided to offend Long Yan and had to say it.
Hehe!
Li Jing sneered in his heart when he heard this.
Since you have to say it, then you just say it, and you don't know whether to say it or not?
Isn't that redundant?
"What does Aiqing want to say? It's better to think about it and talk about it, so as not to get confused and not express the meaning clearly!"
Li Jing motioned for him to think clearly before speaking, don't wait for the words to be said after they are spoken, it will be bad if the words do not reach the meaning!
"Sage, may I ask if you will send 500 troops to garrison Yaozhou according to the old practice?"
Zhang Cambodia didn't answer directly, but asked.
"This is natural, Yaozhou is the territory of my Datang, and it is not normal to send troops to garrison it."
Li Jing didn't think there was anything wrong with this, since it was the territory of the Tang Dynasty, it was normal to send troops to garrison it!
Is it necessary to ask?
"Sage, the minister opposes sending troops to garrison Yaozhou, and the minister hopes that the saint can withdraw the dispatch of troops to garrison Yaozhou."
Zhang Cambodia said.
"Why is Aiqing opposing troops stationed, once a foreign invasion, how can Yaozhou resist?"
Li Jing asked.
"The terrain of Yaozhou is dangerous, and there is a miasma, anyone who arrives in Yaozhou will die, and the ministers oppose sending troops to garrison Yaozhou."
"According to the research of the minister, Yaozhou is an ancient country of mourning, located outside the Eight Wilderness Domain, with dangerous mountains and rivers."
"Before Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, there was no contact with our country, and later, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty sent Tang Meng to open up the road to Yelang, Yunnan, and Zhen, but he did not belong to the prison."
"In the last years of Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty, it asked to be accepted as a vassal state, and Yongchang County was set up to govern it, and its salt, cloth, felt carpets, and woolen fabrics were expropriated to benefit Middle-earth."
"It is adjacent to Daqin in the west and Jiaozhi in the south, and there are plenty of rare tributes."
"Liu Bei occupied Shu and was short of armaments, Zhuge Liang crossed Lushui in May, expropriated its property to replenish armaments, and sent Zhang Boqi to select strong soldiers to strengthen his troops."
Therefore, "Shu Zhi" said that after Zhuge Liang's southern expedition, Shu was rich. The previous dynasty set up a county here because it was advantageous. ”
"At present, its salt, cloth and other taxes are not provided, rare tributes are not entered into the court, weapons such as halberds do not enrich the army of our dynasty, and local assets are not dedicated to the great powers of the Celestial Empire."
"But the court exhausted the official property, drove and led the people to be subjected to barbarian servitude, so that they lost their lives tragically, and the ministers felt sorry for Your Majesty."
Zhang Cambodia explained to Li Jing that he had researched the situation in Yaozhou, and explained to Li Jing that Yaozhou was just hanging under the name of the Tang Dynasty, and the people were still self-contained.
Not only could the imperial court not profit from it, but on the contrary, it had to give preferential treatment to those barbarians every year, spending a lot of financial, material, and human resources.
The Yaozhou barbarians are naturally very happy, but for the subjects of the Tang Dynasty, they are indeed burdened and painful, why should the barbarians enjoy the benefits of the Tang Dynasty, but they do not have any return to the Tang Dynasty.
What's the use of coming to such a place? Why give preferential treatment to barbarians?
Li Jing was stunned after hearing this, why didn't anyone mention this matter to him?
Yaozhou is under the jurisdiction of the governor of Shuzhou, why didn't the governor of Shuzhou report this matter.
"You mean that Yaozhou has never paid tribute to the Tang Dynasty, let alone paid taxes, but the Tang Dynasty still has to give them money and send people to enslave them?"
"Are you sure it's true? Why haven't I received any reports about this? ”
Li Jing frowned slightly, in the realm of the Tang Dynasty, such a thing happened, and no one stood up to speak up for those enslaved people.
How cold-blooded is this magistrate to disregard the life and death of his own compatriots, but also to curry favor with a group of barbarians, and let the people not be enslaved.
How could Li Jing tolerate such a dark thing that appeared during his reign!
"What the minister said, every sentence is true, this is the information verified by the minister!"
Zhang Cambodia took out the fold that had been prepared a long time ago from his sleeve and handed it to Li Jing for a look.
After Li Jing saw it, he was immediately furious, and the governor of Shuzhou ignored this matter, and let Yaozhou be arrogant.
"I never thought that such a thing would happen in my Datang, if it wasn't for Aiqing's timely reminder, I wouldn't know the suffering of the people of Shuzhou."
Li Jing gritted his teeth and decided to punish the governor of Shuzhou and rescue the suffering people of Shuzhou.
"Sage, this matter cannot be completely blamed on the governor of Shuzhou, since the beginning of the Wude period, it is like this, and it is natural to get used to it after a long time!"
In that year, the Han Dynasty gained a lot, crossed the Bonan Mountain, crossed the Lancang River, and changed the two counties of Bonan and Ailao. The people of Shu are sad about this.
"The walker sang: 'Yue Bonan, cross Lanjin, cross Lancang, for others.'" It is a matter of irony for the sake of greedy for the benefit of rare goods, and being enslaved by barbarians. ”
"The Han Dynasty got its benefits, and the people still sang grievances. Now it is a depletion of national reserves, and expenditures and household taxes are shrinking day by day. ”
"Let His Majesty's people fatten the weeds with their bodies, and their bones cannot return, so that their old mothers and young sons can only wail and sacrifice thousands of miles away. The court has no interest, but the people have to suffer for life, and the ministers are selfish and sad for the country. ”
Zhang Cambodia said again that the result is a problem left over from history, not a single governor can influence it, and the direction of the imperial court will not change.
Some people died, but not completely......
