Tan Shihuai's face flashed with a look of conviction: "Yes, on this point, I really convinced you, my lord, if you hadn't rejected everyone's opinions at that time, especially those who did not adopt the opinions of those nobles and civil servants.
Suggestions, or even threats to join you, now Hu Canjun and the others have nothing to say, they can only say that you are too wise."
Tan Zhi sighed: "These sons of the gentry are usually unwilling to serve as officials in the states and counties and endure hardships. They know nothing about these basic people's sentiments. They just regard these foreigners as foreigners based on the narrow and simple distinction between Yi and Xia.
Wild beasts, even the sworn enemies of the barbarians in the north. For them, they can even get various political achievements by clearing and slaughtering the barbarians in this way. Therefore, when the monsters and thieves joined forces, the civil servants said that they should prevent the cave barbarians.
If the barbarians are causing trouble, why not send out troops to exterminate them first? Is this what people say? I'm being polite if I don't punish them."
Tan Shihuai laughed: "If it were me, although I wouldn't kill them, I wouldn't treat them as one of our own. To be honest, more than 3,000 Dong barbarians suddenly came outside the city that day. We really still
We were very nervous, thinking that they were going to attack the city with troops, so when you rode out of the city to form an alliance with them, we were really nervous."
Tan Zhi said calmly: "This is normal, nothing to make a fuss about, because these Dong barbarians did not suddenly come out during the war. In the past few years under my rule, they have been willing to pay taxes and serve in peacetime. There are also two to three hundred of their tribesmen in the city.
During those two years when I was serving in the army, I visited many of their villages. If they wanted to take advantage of the situation, there would be no news at all. The tribes would have to communicate with each other, discuss matters, and involve the entire Wuling area.
All the tribes rebelled together, and I have my spies, so I am very sure that they are not here to attack the city."
Tan Shihuai said convincingly: "My lord, you are very popular in peacetime, and everyone is willing to serve you during the war. However, we know these things, but the people of Jiangling do not know, and they are just like the nobles in their hearts.
Think of these cave barbarians as enemies."
Tan Zhi said sternly: "Actually, before I came to Wuling, my thoughts were similar to theirs. I felt that those who were not from my race would have different thoughts. However, Brother Jinu and Fat Changshi talked to me a lot. Our Dajin itself is a natural product.
, the population is not as good as that of the north. If we continue to have various conflicts and internal strife, such as the Jingyang dispute, or regard these alien races in the mountains as enemies, then all our energy and resources will only be spent on these internecine fights. When can we
What about concentrating China’s strength on the Northern Expedition?”
"Just like Zhuge Liang, the Prime Minister of the Shu Han Dynasty, he captured Meng Huo seven times and completely captured the hearts of the barbarians in Nanzhong. During the Northern Expedition, not only will the Nanzhong region no longer become a source of major turmoil and require large armies to conquer, but in turn it can
Providing troops, food, grass, and ordnance for the Northern Expedition allowed Zhuge Liang to leave Qishan six times and almost revive the Han Dynasty."
"Predecessors have had such successful examples, and we should learn from these experiences. We should not regard the Dongman aliens as enemies, but find ways to become people like us Han people, and teach them to farm and weave.
Let them come out of the mountains, marry and live together with us, and finally become common people of the Jin Dynasty like us. This will be the paradise of kings and kings with no thieves in the mountains and no thieves in the world."
Tan Zhi said that he was very satisfied. He kept stroking his beard and felt quite proud amidst the admiration of the guards around him.
Tan Shihuai smiled and pointed to the stalls in front. At this time, many Dongman soldiers had already walked to various stalls, especially those selling pastries, snacks, and fried skewers. They had already lined up again.
Local delicacies such as deep-fried dried fish and pot cakes have become the favorites of these barbarians. Some people even ran away as fast as possible while biting the skewers in their mouths.
At the end of the line, we queued up again.
Tan Shihuai smiled and said: "Lord, look, these Dongman brothers have never eaten such delicious food, and they are all queuing back and forth to get more. Hey, there are still people going to the rouge gouache stall to buy things for women.
Ah, what's going on?"
Tan Zhi smiled and said: "This is probably bought for the women in their family. These women in the mountains rarely have access to these. Many of them just pick flowers and plants as ornaments in the mountains, as well as those beautiful cloths, so
They say big cities are good, big markets are good, they can allow them to come into contact with and possess good things that they could not come across before, so that they will cherish their current life and fight tooth and nail to defend such a home."
Tan Shihuai nodded and was about to speak when a rough voice came from the side: "General Tan, Zhang Huai'en, deputy captain of General Zhengxi's guard, is here to report."
Tan Zhi looked at the source of the sound, and saw dozens of soldiers with bright armor and white tassel helmets coming in formation. The leader was about thirty years old, more than eight feet in length, with a dark face and big eyes.
, mustache, strong back and waist, he looks like a good man, isn't he none other than Liu Daogui's deputy guard captain Zhang Huaien.
Tan Zhi stood up with a smile and said to Zhang Huaien: "Huaien, why are you here? Brother Dao Gui can't live without you. When will he arrive?"
Zhang Huaien smiled slightly: "The Lord is processing some official documents and will be here soon. He asked me to come here to maintain order and I will be here soon."
Having said this, he looked at the Dongman soldiers who were queuing up to buy goods and eat, and frowned slightly: "Are these the Dongman brothers who came to the market? They look no different from the local Bancheng barbarians in Jingzhou.
Well. General Tan, you have trained these people really well, they will all line up."
Tan Zhi's face changed slightly, his smile disappeared, and he said coldly: "Huaien, these Dongman soldiers are all soldiers of our Wuling army, and they are also sergeants of the Jin Dynasty. Just like you and me, according to the army of the Jin Dynasty,
The regulations and training are what they are today. This is no different from our Beifu brothers. As for coming to the market, not disturbing the people, not taking the people's property, not bullying others, and beheading those who disobey orders, this is what Dao Guan brother
Is it any wonder that my subordinates abide by the disciplines set by me personally?"
Zhang Huaien quickly waved his hand and said: "General Tan, I have no intention of being humble because of my position. I just saw that these barbarians can also abide by disciplines like this, and I felt emotional for a moment. That's why..."
Tan Zhi's face still didn't look good: "My subordinates will naturally abide by discipline. Since Vice Captain Zhang is here to maintain order, please go to your post now and perform your duties. My subordinates here,
If there is any violation of military regulations and disciplines, I will personally hand it over to you and bring it to Brother Daogui for disposal." ()
Tan Shihuai's face flashed with a look of conviction: "Yes, on this point, I really convinced you, my lord, if you hadn't rejected everyone's opinions at that time, especially those who did not adopt the opinions of those nobles and civil servants.
