Chapter 483 Divide and Conquer
Liu Yi pointed to a small village in front of him near the mountains and rivers, and said to An Xuan beside him: "General, there is a resettlement point ahead."
"Okay, Go and have a look!" An Xuan rode forward with great interest.
The newly built village is all made up of adobe houses covered with golden thatch, with livestock sheds on one side and two sides on the other side. A wall made of rammed earth surrounds a huge open space and is flattened. .
There is no furniture in the house, but the most basic functions are available, such as stoves and fire pits.
Smelling the still fresh earthy smell, An Xuan nodded with satisfaction.
"Not bad, but the place is a little smaller. This village can only accommodate a hundred households at most, right?"
"It is a little small, but according to your plan, General The requirement is to have basic grazing conditions and a foundation for farming. There are really not many places that can meet these two requirements at the same time." Liu Yi said with a smile, "And the Protectorate said we can defeat it this time. Beiyuan, General, you are the chief contributor, so we must try our best to meet your requirements. No, three months ago, we began to look for such a place. More than a hundred families can already be accommodated here. It’s the pinnacle. No matter how much it is, everyone’s life will be miserable. I’m afraid they’ll just take it for a small profit, and that won’t be good.” Thank you very much!" An Xuan saluted Liu Yi with his fists raised.
"General, you're welcome! This is my duty!" Liu Yi returned the greeting with a smile: "Your tribe will settle a total of more than 3,000 people in my jurisdiction. I promise the general, It must be a place like this with fertile water and grass, good for grazing and farming, and I have also arranged for experienced agricultural officers to guide your people on how to farm after they move in. Of course, General, I will. You will also ask those of your tribe who are good at breeding to teach others how to breed animals, and ask the general to tell them not to hide their secrets!”
An Xuan laughed: "Of course, we are all a family from now on, and we should help each other!"
Liu Yi nodded repeatedly: "General, let's go to the next resettlement site?"< br>
"No, I can rest assured that Governor Liu is doing something. Next, I am going to go to Xuanwu County to have a look!" An Xuandao said: "I always feel that that boy Cai Ming is not as kind as Governor Liu. None of my people have ever seen the world. , but don’t be deceived by him!”
“That’s right, that’s right, our place is mainly about farming and herding, but Cai Qi’s place pays more attention to business” Liu Yi said with a smile: “Businessmen value profit over separation. , each of them is a guy with a delicate heart and a dry towel, so the general needs to sound the alarm to prevent him from violating the rules!"
"That's the truth! "An Xuandao.
Qiyue Island, Wangyue Hall.
There were not many people in the room. Mao Daxian pointed at a map on the wall and said with a smile: "Guardian, An Xuan's barbarian tribe has a total of more than 50,000 people, among whom there are still eight who are strong and good at fighting. According to Li Duhu's previous arrangements, we scattered them in eight counties and twelve counties. Each county has about 4,000 people. Compared with the original population of these counties, they can only be regarded as a small number. . And they are very far apart."
Mao Daxian traced his finger from the eastern end to the western end and said: "The distance is thousands of miles away!" Luo Hua on the side said in surprise: " Didn't An Xuan discover such an obvious strategy of divide and rule and didn't object to it?"
Mao Daxian smiled and said: "The Protector, all the places given to them are really good places. ! Li Duhu said that you should never treat those who have made great achievements, and they should be rewarded with great rewards. We have gone through a lot of effort to find these good places! Of course, An Xuan also understands that if he wants to own his family, The tribesmen were placed together, and I also pointed out a few places to him, but those places are in remote areas, and life will be difficult.”
"An Xuan is a smart man!" Xiao Changche nodded and said: "After annexing the Yuan Kingdom, our population in Beiting has increased to more than five million. If we count those who are scattered outside and have not borrowed, there are still six million. Yes, they are an absolute minority with more than 50,000 people. Moreover, their reputation outside the customs is not good. Back then, they often infiltrated to destroy and rob, and the old people of Beiyuan did not like them. Many Beiyuan people were generals. A large part of the reason for the failure is on their heads, so An Xuan knows that he must rely closely on us to let his people live a better life. Breaking it into pieces and accelerating integration is the best. Way!"
Mao Daxian smiled and said: "Maybe in a few decades, we will have to find someone to record and compile the language, history and customs of Anxuan and his tribe. In other words, these things will be wealth after decades or hundreds of years!"
"He always thinks about it!" Xiao Changche doesn't quite understand Li Dachui's ideas. Fusion and digestion are the way to go! established strategy, wouldn’t it be better if these things that represented their original history died out? Why stay?
"An Xuan is a master at the ninth level of Xuanyuan. He is also a rare master in our Beiting. And unlike people like Quanxin and Zhang Quanyi, he has no ties with Guan Nei, so he continues Come down, I am going to let him march into the pass as the commander of the army, alongside Gu Xiaoman!" Xiao Changzhai.
“The barbarians are quite powerful in combat!” Mao Daxian said: “They are natural candidates for heavy cavalry and heavy infantry. Once inside the pass, in the Central Plains, cavalry is very popular, but as you go south, infantry becomes more important. Their nature will be more prominent, equip them with barbarian soldiers, and use them as the main force to attack the enemy! An Xuanjing is good at long-distance blitzes with cavalry, and it can be said that he can better utilize his expertise in the Central Plains, but the further south, Zhang Quanyi and brand new will be more important.”
"It turns out that the combat effectiveness of the Yuan army is actually quite good, but one general is incompetent and the three armies are exhausted!" Xiao Changcai said: "But within two to three years, we still have to be very cautious about the use of the surrendered Yuan army. By the way, Ren Duobao How can we live in harmony with Xifeng Kedai?”
“Rendobao chose to live in Aquarius City, while Xifeng Kedai chose Tai’an City. Compared with Renduobao, Xifeng Kedai. Be more active. Now this guy has a lot of money, buys shares everywhere, and is very interested in doing business!" Mao Daxian smiled and said: "This is another smart man, at least smarter than Ren Duobao. Ren Duobao is not willing. Spread the wealth."
"I heard from Luo Hua that hundreds of places have been reserved for Yuan people and barbarians in the university hall today?"
"Yes. Said: "This is also one of the multi-pronged methods of digestion and fusion!"
Xiao Changche rubbed his temples: "There are too many things, and I have a headache just thinking about it!"
"The Protector can take care of the baby with peace of mind, don't think too much, just leave these matters to us!"
Xiao Changche rolled his eyes: "I really don't know much about civil affairs matters, and I don't want to care about them. , but can I ignore the military affairs? "
Mao Daxian smiled and said: "I have asked Qian Jia to send a message to the Protector, and asked the Protector to come back as soon as possible. It will take up to a month. This letter will be in the hands of the governor."
Xiao Changche remained silent, turning his head to look at the turbulent Qingshui River outside the window, stroking his abdomen subconsciously.
