Tan Zhi nodded: "I understand, brother Daogui, as the governor of Jingzhou and the general of the expedition to the west, you are actually willing to come to this market in person to meet these Dongman warriors. It is really a blessing that they have cultivated for several lifetimes.
However, I must handle your security and protection duties well. I will return to the camp immediately and send all the Chinese military guards to the scene to maintain order."
Liu Daogui smiled slightly: "No, it's really not necessary. This is just for the soldiers to go shopping. Don't put so much pressure on me. I can just go and take a look. Our purpose is still to fight. Don't sacrifice the good for the weak."
Tan Daoji said seriously: "Brother Daogui, after all, you are the governor and the commander of the entire Jingzhou. Not to mention your noble status, if there is any accident, it will shake the overall situation. Of course, brothers are all good, and I
Human, but if there are spies sent by some demon thieves who take the opportunity to assassinate, it will be an irreparable loss, so we must be cautious."
Liu Daogui pondered for a moment and said: "What Daoji said makes sense. Let's do this, Ah Ji, you send out your Chinese army guards, and I will send another eighty white tassel guards here. Lin Zihao has brought most of the guards there now."
After arriving at Wulindu, I don’t have many guards around here, only about a hundred. I will go first with eighty people to maintain order and provide security. As for you, only about a hundred people will be here. Don’t let the Dongman soldiers go either.
And the vendors in the market felt too stressed.”
Tan Daoji laughed: "A guard of about two hundred people should be enough. Brother Daogui, I can handle this matter in the military mansion on your behalf. You don't have to worry."
Liu Daogui nodded: "You will handle the matters within Jiangling City. I will also ask Zhenzhi and the others to take care of the defense outside the city, including the handover between Ma Tou Camp and Wulindu. The guards can go there first.
I'll be there shortly, Aji, you can go back to the army now."
Tan Zhi turned around and left, his voice carried in the wind: "We'll see you at the market later."
When Tan Zhi's figure disappeared outside the gate of the mansion, Tan Daoji shook his head gently: "Brother Daogui, I held back just now, although you love soldiers like sons and are famous for being close to them.
, but for this mere thousand Dongman sergeants, to mobilize so many troops, to open a market, and to visit the scene in person, is the standard too high? What will our Han soldiers think when they see it? "
Liu Daogui sighed softly: "Daoji, what do you think caused the Wuhu Rebellion, and how did it continue to this day?"
Tan Daoji raised his lips disapprovingly: "That's because starting from Cao Cao and then Emperor Wu of the Western Jin Dynasty, for the sake of reputation or because of their fighting ability, they recruited these barbarians from various places and gave them land.
They are divided into five tribes: Xiongnu, and Guanzhong is divided into half Han and Qiang. So when I heard just now that you want these Dong barbarians to come out of the mountains, allocate land to them, and live in villages, my heart sank. My third brother is because
As the internal history of Wuling, this kind of appeasement of barbarians is his political achievement and is good for him. But as the governor of Jingzhou, you have to be careful. The barbarians are not my kind. They may cause rebellion if there is a chance. You must investigate and you must
Defend."
Liu Daogui frowned slightly: "So, you still have to guard against these Dongmans as enemies, and even after defeating Lu Xun, do you have to go into the mountains to clear them out?"
Tan Daoji gritted his teeth: "I don't care about things in Wuling, but in our land of Jingzhou, there are a large number of these barbarians in the mountains. Isn't the purpose of our current garrison in various places to guard against them? These
During the Three Kingdoms period, the people were Shanyue, and now they are Banzhen barbarians. From time to time they go out to the mountains to raid and plunder Han villages. The Huan family has not dealt with them in Jingzhou for more than sixty years. I have spent a lot of effort in cleaning them up in Jingzhou these years.
"
Liu Daogui said calmly: "So, you have been fighting here for three years to clear up the rebellion, and how many more years are you going to fight in the future? Of the battles you have cleared up, how many of them were caused by the banzhen barbarians themselves, and how many of them were caused by others?
You instigated it, don’t you know it yourself?”
Tan Daoji frowned slightly: "Is there any difference? Isn't it just the remnants of Huan Chu who came to these mountains and incited these barbarians to cause rebellion, from not paying taxes to going out to attack Han villages? Isn't it all like this? I follow your instructions.
, I only punished the chief culprits and spared the subordinates, but they often rebelled again soon. I have attacked some mountain strongholds three times. If it were not for the monsters and thieves, I would have killed all the barbarians in the mountains.
Caught him out."
Liu Daogui sighed softly: "I haven't talked to you about this matter on weekdays. I only asked you to lead troops to suppress the rebellion, but now, I have to talk to you about this matter."
At this point, he shouted loudly to the door of the mansion: "Here comes someone."
Several military officials ran in at small steps, saluted Liu Daogui and said, "What are your orders for the expedition to the west?"
Liu Daogui handed the note he had just written quickly to the leading scribe and said: "Submit this official document to Wang Zhenzhi quickly and ask him to handle it according to what is written on it. Also, let Zhang Weien, the deputy captain of the guard, choose
Eighty guards, wearing white tassels, are on duty at Jiangling Market. I will be there in an hour. Before I arrive, let them obey General Tan Zhi's command."
The military officials took the note and bowed before retreating. Soon, the entire governor's hall returned to a state where only two people were facing each other.
Liu Daogui looked at Tan Daoji and said calmly: "There is still some time. I need to talk to you about the governance of Jingzhou and how to deal with the various Dong and Banzhen barbarians in the mountains. Our Jingzhou has been the land of Chu since ancient times, and various tribes
There are many, many of them are the Sanmiao clan who lived here even further back. By the time of the Three Kingdoms, many Han people fled into the mountains to avoid wars, lived together with the barbarians, and merged with them. We call them Shanyue. These people were
Living in the mountains and relying on the mountains is completely different from the Han people who make a living by farming in the plains. The reason why the Yi and Han are antagonizing is, to put it bluntly, a difference in production and lifestyle, not that these people are aliens, so if
They are like wild beasts, they are natural enemies of us."
Tan Daoji said disapprovingly: "Brother Daogui, what you said is all great truth, but great truth cannot solve these contradictions. They are completely different from us Han people. They also live in tribes. In their view, we foreigners
The Han people occupied their homes and drove them into the mountains to live a hard life, so it is natural to retaliate against us. It is just because our Jin army is strong and stationed here that they dare not cause rebellion.
Even if Lu Xun and the others are causing rebellion this time, these people are ready to make a move. More than half of our troops that could have fought directly with Lu Xun now have to be stationed in various places to guard against these barbarians. It is such a pity."
