Chapter 268 Assimilation Conscription

Recruiting Yi soldiers in the Great Changhe Country is the idea that Lu Yuan came up with after experiencing several brutal camp battles in these days.

Speaking of which, this is the same old routine.

Previously, when he was just starting out, when he put down the rebellion of the Seven Star Gate, he had driven those traitors to surrender troops to attack the city.

At that time, it saved him a lot of troop losses, and at the same time, by consuming these troops, it also solved a great local security hazard.

So later, when pacifying the Miao people, Lu Yuan also made persistent efforts to carry forward this strategy.

According to incomplete statistics, during the pacification of the Miao people, a total of more than 40,000 Miao people surrendered their troops, and with their lives, they made great contributions to quelling the rebellion of the Five Poisons Sect.

Later, during the Northern Expedition, the same thing happened again in Xichuan County.

Tens of thousands of Xiangyong rebels in Xichuan County made a vital contribution to Lu Yuan's surprise attack and defeat the Zhou and Qiang coalition forces from the rear.

All of the above, through the methods of pulling servant troops, vassal armies, and surrendering troops, helped Lu Yuan save an unknown amount of losses and brought a lot of gains.

"Since those Yi people are different from me, with different bloodlines, different cultures, different beliefs, and different customs, it is impossible to assimilate them, or even to stabilize them in a preliminary manner, in a dozen or decades.

You can't solve the problem, but you can solve the person who caused the problem.

Just like he did with the Miao people in Dongting County before, first gather all these Yi men and force them to fight to the death with their own people on the frontline battlefield.

Use a brutal war to consume these men.

When all these adult men are dead, the rest are the old and weak, women and children.

At the right time, it is time to lay down these territories and establish a county, and 30,000 county soldiers will be needed to maintain stability.

At that time, they will all be packed up and distributed to these local troops, and one person and one household will be able to absorb 30,000 households and more than 100,000 people.

At that time, we will recruit some homeless, unemployed, and undeceived bachelors in China, and tempt them with the conditions of dividing their fields and families, women, and children when they come to the southwest region, which should also solve the problem of tens of thousands of households.

All of this adds up, and there is no big problem in digesting three or four hundred thousand Yi people.

And with the current patriarchal social system, after one or two generations, these three or four hundred thousand Yi people, as well as their descendants, will become Chu people.

Coupled with the more than 200,000 people collected from the Soviet Union, there are almost 500,000 or 600,000 people, and the territory of the newly opened county can basically be stabilized.

As for the remaining Yi people, there are only two or three hundred thousand people left at most, and under this general trend, they can't turn the storm at all.

Directly arrange for local soldiers to clean up and suppress the population, and then redistribute it to immigrants, and after twenty or thirty years, this side will be stable. ”

Killing his father and brother, taking his wife and daughter, and occupying his land, the above three points are the assimilation strategy set by Lu Yuan against the southwest Yi.

Although it looks cruel, it is actually even more cruel.

But race wars, civilizational wars, are so bloody and cruel.

Racial integration is essentially killing other people's husbands and fathers, and then snatching other people's wives and daughters, giving birth to a new generation for themselves, and merging into the same race.

From ancient times to the present day, it is nothing more than that.

But it has to be said that this method is extremely effective.

For specific examples, just look at the Miao people in Dongting County.

At the beginning, after pacifying the Southern Three Prefectures and Wuling Mansions, Lu Yuan successively allocated almost 100,000 Miao wives and daughters to his meritorious soldiers and wifeless households, so that they could take these Miao people to settle down in the local area and organize the households.

As these 100,000 families gave birth to newborns, they multiplied and grew locally, and accepted the cultural system belonging to the Dongyang people.

Now less than ten years have passed, and most of the traces of the original Miao people have been washed away.

Even with the birth of their own children, those women and children who were originally exposed to the culture and customs of the Miao people slowly began to change, trying to accept or take the initiative to transform themselves into Chu people, that is, Dongyang people.

Predictable.

When these newborns grow up, and further reproduce, and have more communication with the outside world, then the shadows and traces of their original Miao bloodline will also disappear completely under continuous hybridization and transformation, and become the purest Chu people.

It is the great success of this policy that has made it possible for less than 100,000 pure Miao people to remain in the entire Dongting territory.

Even these 100,000 people, with the great changes in the outside world, continue to intermarry with the Chu people, change their culture and traces step by step, and begin to transform towards the Chu people.

That's it, you can't say anything yet?

Didn't you see that the supreme faith leader of the Miao people, the holy daughters of the Five Poisons Sect, all intermarried with the King of Chu, and even gave birth to two children?

The top levels are like this, and the bottom levels naturally follow suit, and they are competing to follow suit.

For this scene, many conservatives within the Miao people are anxious.

But every time they found Lan Zhaoyun and wanted this sect leader to respond and contain, the other party chose to remain silent and did not give any instructions or responses.

At such a time, in this situation, no response equals the greatest support.

Blue Sect Master, is he acquiescing to this change in the clan?

All right.

In fact, with Lan Cai'er giving birth to two sons one after another, especially in recent days, it has been reported back that her eldest son Lu He will receive congenital cultivation and is expected to break through the innate news before the age of twenty.

Lan Zhaoyun knew that his original plan had basically succeeded.

The Miao clan, the Five Poisons Sect, or the Lan clan, after having the grandson of this future successor of the Chu State, will definitely occupy an unshakable and firm position in the Chu State.

After Lu Yuan's death, when Lu He ascends the throne, then these maternal forces, such as today's general Zhou Qing, as well as Cui and Sun Erxiang, will become the top gatekeepers who control and formulate the future direction of the Chu State, and it is just around the corner.

At that time, the Lan clan and the Five Poisons Sect will be like the Linhai family, and they will rest with the Chu State from generation to generation, enjoying the glory and wealth together.

Even if they have the opportunity, it is not impossible for them to follow the recommendation system of the Linhai family and become the king of the Chu country.

This vast future is in front of us, with a predictable future, Lan Zhaoyun will give up the benefits that he will get when he is stupid, and run to fight against the real ruler of the Chu State now, the terrifying Shenwu King who makes people unable to think about fighting.

Not to mention.

With the population of less than 100,000 Miao people now, in the face of the millions of Chu people, under this general trend, under the continuous suppression, they want to resist this continuous assimilation, can they really do it?

Even if Lu Yuan dies now, let Lu He come to power, in the face of this general situation, Lan Zhaoyun is very skeptical, can this situation be reversed?

It's probably impossible.

So finally.

Since you can't resist, then you should accept it.

If you can't resist assimilation, you can't resist it.

Anyway, as long as his Lan clan is still there, and the core few Miao clans are still there, even if there are only a few hundred or thousands of people left, with them, the Miao clan will not die.

As for those people at the bottom, they are ignorant and low-blooded, so if they don't have it, they will be gone.

The will of the Miao people will be inherited by these noble bloodlines.

One day, the descendants of the ancestors will become the rulers of this Chu country and become the king of Chu country.

At that time, it will be the time for the Miao people to regain this world.

Well, the above is basically the idea of comforting Lan Zhaoyun and the others in their hearts after lying down.

How so?

The idea is good, it's satisfying, it's imaginative.

As for whether it can be realized in the future?

Lu Yuan felt that it was better to wait for them to survive themselves.

If you can't die, then honestly take your own fantasies and bury them in the mound with the corpse and become a part of the dust in the world.

But all in all, no matter Lan Zhaoyun, no matter the Five Poison Sect, no matter what the high-level clans of the Miao people think?

But now the Miao people in the entire Dongting area, under the influence of Lu Yuan's three strategies, are rapidly being assimilated and absorbed, which is a fact that cannot be ignored.

The Miao people, who originally numbered a million people, were assimilated by wars one after another, and now there are less than 100,000 people left in the Chu period.

The scale has been reduced by nine-tenths, which shows the efficiency and power of these three strategies.

It's not just the Hmong.

Even in Xichuan County, the 60,000 or 70,000 Qiang people left behind by Li Xiong have disappeared without a trace under the assimilation of the past few years, and have basically completely disappeared from the stage of history.

From now on, the word Qiang will probably only be mentioned when Li Xiong and others are mentioned.

It is true that specific races are simply not possible to appear at all.

The above two successful examples show that Lu Yuan's strategy is easy to use, and it is a solution that has been proven to be extremely feasible and successful.

So at this time, in the face of the Yiren who are similar to Qiang and Miao, they can naturally be directly applied and applied with slight changes.

"So this first step, minus the male, is up to you."

Lu Yuan's eyes were deep, looking at the direction where Li Xiong left, where there was no other party's figure.

It is not so simple and easy to get the territory of half a county or even a county from his hands.

If you don't make enough contributions and reflect enough value, how can you match this thousands of miles of territory.

Helping himself to recruit soldiers is Li Xiong's task to reflect his own value.

Relying on Lu Yuan himself, he can't recruit those Yi people, and the other party will not obey the order of a foreigner and run to fight with his fellow people of the same faith.

At the moment, only Li Xiong can help him do this well.

After all, the other party has almost controlled the court of the Barbarian Country, and has infiltrated the Langdong Kingdom, and has made a lot of achievements.

With the names of these two countries, the relationship and connections between these two countries, and the systems of these two countries, we can continuously gather enough soldiers and horses from those local Yi tribes.

Then send it to the front line to shine for the Chu State and contribute his own strength.

Lu Yuan believed that the other party would not let him down.

……

After Li Xiong left, under the temptation of the big cake, he quickly obeyed the order. The 15,000 soldiers under his control were deployed outside the city to accept Lu Yuan's command.

And Lu Yuan didn't bother to care about this, and the Yi soldiers, who were destined to be used as consumables, didn't change their establishment much, so he directly asked Li Xiong to appoint those who were originally generals to lead people, and directly attacked the Dachang and military camps in the south of the city.

He only sent 10,000 forbidden troops to serve as a team of overseers, responsible for monitoring and assessing the rebellion of those Yiren.

In this regard, many people in the forbidden army said that they are old.

At the beginning, they were like this, pressing those traitors, Miao people, surrendered soldiers, and village warriors in the locality, and rushed to kill them in front.

Come again at this time, familiar with the road.

So under the oppression of the 10,000 forbidden army, under the threat of the lives of his wife and children in the city, and driven by his superiors, these 15,000 Yi people had to harden their heads and set foot on the cruel flesh mill with red eyes, and joined the attack and defense of the camp.

Because they are all razor, Lu Yuan's side will certainly not be reluctant to let the forbidden army attack vigorously to minimize casualties as before.

For him, who was already thinking of consuming these Yiren men, he had the opportunity at this time, and he naturally consumed it vigorously.

Batch after batch of Yiren soldiers were sent to the battlefield in this way, and then they were quickly crippled and consumed, and some of the escapees were also executed as deserters by those fierce warlords.

Under this cruel consumption, in just half a month, there were only more than 3,000 of the 15,000 Yi people left.

However, Lu Yuan didn't care about this.

Because there was already news from Li Xiong's side, with the various conscription teams sent out to the countryside, the small countries and tribes under the rule of the Barbarian State soon regained a batch of new manpower.

There are about 10,000 soldiers, and they will be sent in about ten days.

However, after this toss, many tribes and even the people of small countries chose to flee to the mountains and forests in order to avoid military service, away from this terrible war.

In response to this, Li Xiong's side also set up several cleaning teams, led by local traitors, and the masters he gathered were responsible for going to the mountains to clean up and scrape those fugitives.

According to Li Xiong's words, he was very confident that even if these fugitives fled to the mountains, he could teach them and send them back to the battlefield.

In another month, when the fugitives are cleared out, and those tribes and small countries are squeezed again, a new batch of 10,000 soldiers will continue to be sent.

However, after these two blood draws, the Yi people in the old land of the Barbarian Country should not be able to squeeze out troops.

According to Li Xiong's plan, after completing these two conscriptions, he planned to send a working group to the side of Nong Dongguo and continue from here.

The original ally of this barbarian country, after his own defeat, quickly turned to the Great Changhe country, and his vitality was relatively sufficient.

If you squeeze hard, you should be able to recruit 30,000 soldiers.

In this way, the two countries of Wuman and Langdong combined, just completed Lu Yuan's small goal of recruiting 50,000 soldiers.

There is only one Aikawa country left, and this is a surprise beyond the excess.

Before the last trace of Yiren's blood is drained, for his throne and for his own half-county territory, Li Xiong will not stop his steps.

With such an efficient conscription manager, Lu Yuan naturally has no scruples about the consumption of soldiers on the front line.

The remaining 3,000 men were driven back to the battlefield without resting for two days.

Before the last Yiren blood is shed, Lu Yuan will not stop this war either.

"Despicable!"

Da Chang and the military camp, Li Chuan looked into the distance, another round of attacks on his side, his hand slapped the wall next to him, and the force of anger made the hard wood shatter, splash debris, and fly around.

But Li Chuan didn't realize these Li Chuan, but still gritted his teeth with red eyes and said: "Those Chu people, they are afraid of death, but they drive our people to attack the city and let us kill each other, it's really despicable!" ”

The suppressed anger in his heart couldn't be contained, so that this great general of the Great Chang and the country couldn't wait to rush out immediately, find the Chu people to fight, and have a dignified decisive battle.

But he didn't dare.

In the past few days of fighting, the Chu people's successive victories, and the continuous defeat and retreat of their own side have all proved the terrible and powerful strength of the other side.

After several years of war and the consumption of a large number of elite soldiers, the side of the Great Chang and the country has really been greatly injured and has fallen into extreme weakness.

Not only is the quality of the soldiers extremely poor, but even all kinds of ordnance and equipment are far inferior to the armor and strength of the Chu people.

On the frontal battlefield, with the same number, or even two or three times the number, the Dachang and the army could not defeat the Chu army.

Could it be that he relied on the camp that had been urgently reinforced in the past few days, relying on desperate defense, even if there were only 50,000 or 60,000 people in the Chu State opposite, Li Chuan didn't have much confidence in his heart to defeat the other party.

And this series of defeats and defeats also made the general clear in his heart that the current Great Changhe State is no longer the opponent of the rising Chu State in the east.

Although it has been a thousand years since the establishment of the country on his side, in the face of the Chu State, which has only been born for a few years, the two are no longer countries of the same level.

'Damn, is this the strength of the Dongyang people?

Even if it has just experienced war, even if it is just a new country, as long as it integrates internally and launches aggression externally, it is so powerful and terrifying.

Were the Yue, Miao, Qiang, and Barbarian tribes who were wiped out such a terrible enemy in the face?

In the face of this kind of enemy, can my Chili really resist? ’

Li Chuan had these pessimistic thoughts in his heart, but he couldn't show them on his face.

He is the commander of the great army, and the only hope for the country today.

If he loses all his faith, the people below will feel even more hopeless.

And in this state, if you go to meet the enemy again, there is really no hope for Dachanghe and the country.

Holding this will, Li Chuan forcibly suppressed the fear and pessimism in his heart, suppressed the anger in front of him, and turned around and asked, "How is the situation in Langdong and Huichuan now?" ”

The Chu army in front of him is not the only soldier and horse on the other side.

In addition to Shicheng, the Chu people also sent 20,000 soldiers and horses to attack in Huichuan and Nongdong.

So after getting the news, Li Chuan knew that the situation was not good, and immediately dispatched troops and horses, and each took out 30,000 soldiers and horses from the Shicheng camp and sent the two countries to rescue.

And after these 60,000 people were sent out, there were only 120,000 people left on the battalion's side.

But these 120,000 people, after experiencing these days of brutal attack and defense, have lost more than 10,000 people.

What made Li Chuan even more angry was that the warriors who died these days were caused by his own clan. There are only two Chu people who have really been killed.

It was supposed to be a war between the Chili and the Chu people, but in the end it returned to the original of this war, the bloody civil war within the Chili people.

And what made him even more frightened was that as this war continued, there were only more than 100,000 people left in the entire battalion.

I think that when the soldiers besieged Shicheng, there were more than 200,000 soldiers on my side, how high-spirited they were.

But in just two months, the original 200,000 soldiers and horses were suddenly reduced by more than half, and only 100,000 troops remained.

In this case, he naturally wanted to be anxious to know the situation on the other two fronts.

Over there, it shouldn't be as difficult as here, right?

Li Chuan's heart was cold.
