Lingling and Shi'an counties are self-sufficient, so they ignored Lantian's propaganda. Wei Huan came here secretly. For such thoughtful officials, Lantian felt that they could still be saved.
Unexpectedly, he would encounter such a difficult problem when he first came to Lingling. Lantian asked people to arrange Wei Huan to rest in the post house, and then summoned Gao Shun and Gan Ning to discuss countermeasures.
It is said that this kind of ethnic conflict is mainly caused by interests, and to a large extent it is also caused by misunderstandings and poor communication. However, Liu Du's solution is to blindly tolerate it. Although it is a temporary solution in the short term, it will continue like this in the long run.
It is tantamount to raising bandits to cause trouble.
If equal pay is equal for equal work and communication is smooth, there will be no big contradiction at all. At this time, the productivity of the Han people is advanced, and the productivity of the Yue people in slash-and-burn farming may be lagging behind, which can easily lead to a sour grapes mentality.
Coupled with the language barrier that ignites the fuse, local small wars are unavoidable, and in the end it is the honest people who suffer.
In this case, the only option other than escaping is to lie down. The vitality of an area will be lost very quickly. If you want to solve the trouble once and for all, you have to use both kindness and force. At least at this stage, the deterrence of force is indispensable.
The Yue people were divided into tribes and groups, either one, two hundred, or thirty or fifty warriors, who went down the mountain in groups and entrenched themselves in the remote mountains and wilderness of Lingling and Shi'an counties. They were the same as the clan thieves in Jingzhou in the past, but on a smaller scale.
a lot of.
Lantian didn't want Lingling to develop like Jiangdong, where he would be constantly at odds with the Shanyue people throughout his life.
Gan Ning had experience in governing the Yue people, but Lingling's naval force was still being formed, and it would take a longer time for the warships to be formed. Naturally, Gao Shun's camp would be better by land.
"The Yue people in Lingling and Shi'an counties are arrogant and domineering. The main reason is Liu Du's indulgence. Since we are here, we must suppress this unhealthy trend." Lan Tian said sonorously.
"Sir, let me go." Gan Ning asked.
"The situation is urgent. Boping goes to Lingling and Xingba goes to Shi'an." Lantian said thoughtfully.
"Wei." Gao Shun (Gan Ning) said in unison.
Before the two left, Lan Tian said again: "Bo Ping will go to the post house to pick up Wei County Prime Minister and go ahead. Xing Ba, please wait two days before leaving."
"It's not an emergency, why..." Gan Ning asked puzzledly.
Lan Tian: "As the saying goes, haste makes waste. If you want to do your job well, you must first sharpen your tools. The road to Shi'an is long and difficult, so it is faster to take the waterway. But there are not enough warships in Lingling, so we can only wait."
"Building a ship will take a long time, sir. Doesn't he have some other clever ideas?"
"I have already taken a boat to Dongting to see General Guan and asked him to borrow dozens of warships for his use. I estimate that I will be back in two or three days. You should prepare the food, grass and baggage first."
Gan Ning's eyes lit up, and he thought that Mr. Ma's plan was not limited to Lingling. It would be much faster to travel by water.
Two days later, thirty warships arrived at Quanling. Not many of Liu Bei's men could make Guan Yu look good, but Lan Tian was one of the few people he admired, so he sent his eldest son Guan Ping to help him fight.
Gan Ning went south along the river to find peace, and agreed to rush back to Quanling before the year.
While the two were going south to put down the rebellion, Lan Tian was already arranging the next steps. He wrote to Zhuge Liang and borrowed Nanping County Lieutenant Gaoyuan and Guiyang County Prime Minister Zhang Chang, so that he could use some familiar people to carry out his work.
In October of the 11th year of Jian'an, general Tai Shici died of illness in Jianchang. Sun Quan sent Cheng Pu to take over his post. Liu Pan took advantage of the situation and entered Ai County and other places to raid. Although there were many small victories, due to insufficient troops, he plundered some money and grain and returned to You.
county.
Liu Pan saw that there was an opportunity to take advantage of, so he wrote to Liu Biao asking for more troops.
At this time, Liu Biao was also in a state of distress. The last time Huang Zu sent Deng Long to attack Chaisang, he was captured alive by Zhou Yu instead. Now, although Liu Pan had a small victory, his troops were not as good as Zhou Yu's.
After Zhou Yu pacified Ma and secured Ertun, he replenished a considerable number of troops. If he continued to attack Jiangxia on a large scale, Huang Zu would be under greater pressure.
The military power in Xiangyang was in the hands of Cai Mao. The last time he asked him to give 10,000 yuan to Liu Qi, he had given Liu Biao enough face. He refused to pay out any money on the pretext of Xiangyang's defense needs.
Liu Biao had no choice but to write a reply to Liu Pan, asking him to go to Liu Qi if he was short of troops, and the 10,000 navy troops would go to support him.
Liu Pan didn't like the ten thousand old, weak, sick and disabled, so he could only watch the fighter planes pass by. He knew that after Cheng Pu completely took over Jianchang, he would have no chance.
In mid-December, the troops of Ganning and Gao Shun who put down the rebellion will return to Quanling by water. Lingling and Shi'an counties have been pacified.
In accordance with Lantian's strategy of cutting through the mess with a sharp sword, they held referendums on the leaders of the rebel Yue people. Gan Ning in particular wiped out nearly a hundred tribes, and the leaders of these tribes were taken to the front of the mountain stronghold and beheaded.
The bullied Han people in the two counties were finally proud, while the rebellious Yue tribes fell into panic.
Lantian then adjusted the officials of the two counties and appointed Wei Huan as the magistrate of Lingling County, Zhang Chang as the magistrate of Shi'an County, and Gao Yuan as the magistrate of Shi'an County.
In handling the relationship between Han and Vietnam, he used both kindness and power, giving out candy to anyone who was hit with a stick. Lantian canceled the taxes of the two counties for one year, and asked Li Yang to send people to guide production.
With this thunderous method, the Yue people in the two counties will not dare to make mistakes in the short term. Once new technologies and new farm tools are widely used, I believe they will soon restore calm like other counties, and even learn their shame and develop faster.
.
Previously, it took Liu Biao several years to quell the rebellion in the three counties of Jingnan until Zhang Xian's death. Lingling and Shi'an counties were pacified within a few months, which surprised Liu Qi.
"I heard that the Yue people in Lingling and Shi'an were suffering from a stubborn disease. Liu Du was unable to deal with it when he was in office. Mr. Ziyu actually managed to pacify it in a few months. Your sharp sword is so sharp." Liu Qi complimented.
Lan Tian said modestly: "All of these are high, thanks to the contributions of the two generals, I actually didn't do anything..."
Liu Qi pointed at him and said with a smile: "Everyone in the world knows that Ziyu is humble. Qi finally saw it today. If my husband hadn't come to help me, how could I have such a stable life..."
"We have different fates. It would be great if the eldest son could control the overall situation. Wouldn't it be exhausting if we had to do everything ourselves?" Lan Tian replied.
Liu Qi deeply agreed, "If I am afraid of being scolded again in Xiangyang, it is better for someone as talented as Ziyu to be considerate."
"Is the young master still getting used to being in Quanling?" Lan Tian saw that his spirit was listless, and he estimated that his physical condition was very worrying.
"Very good, very good. I just feel a little weak. I will go to Chen County in a few days and ask Mr. Zhongjing to prescribe a few doses of medicine." Liu Qi said with a smile.
When Liu Qi was in Xiangyang, he indulged in sexual activities, and his body had been hollowed out long ago. After arriving in Quanling, he was even more unsupervised. He indulged in drinking, singing and dancing every day, and he was afraid that he would die early like in history.
Lan Tian didn't give much advice, after all, life and death mattered.
"The new year is approaching, will you not be celebrating the New Year in Quanling?" Lan Tian asked curiously.
"Sir, he has been busy with Lingling and Shi'an these days. Doesn't he know that uncle is so happy with Lin'er?" Liu Qi said with a smile.
