Chapter 0882 Another way of immigration real border
In Liangzhou in March of the 10th year of Jianxing, the snow had basically melted, and the impact of last year's white disaster had almost been eliminated.
The most important work of the year, preparations for spring plowing are in full swing.
In addition to spring plowing, Liangzhou has another important job than Shu, which is animal husbandry.
Liangzhou’s animal husbandry is the best in the world, and Liangzhou’s horses are even more popular in the world.
At that time, Emperor Xiaowu ordered Li Guangli to conquer Dawan and seize the bloody horse.
Most of the BMWs obtained were raised in Liangzhou, which greatly improved the horse breeds in Liangzhou.
It can be said that the quality of war horses produced in Liangzhou is indeed higher than that of war horses produced in Bingzhou and Youzhou.
At this time, the environment in Liangzhou was infinitely better than in later generations.
The mountains stretching on both sides of the Hexi Corridor provide snow water to the plains under the mountains every year.
Moreover, all four counties have a river with a large enough flow, which provides sufficient irrigation water for farming.
"This is probably the legendary fertile land given by God, right?"
Feng Yong looked at the rough map and said with some emotion.
I have only been in Liangzhou for a few months, and I have been busy all the time, so the maps I have on hand are all those found in the former governor's mansion.
The drawing is very rough, it is a topographic map.
The Han Dynasty has long been able to draw different maps according to different needs.
For example, topographic maps focus on drawing mountains, rivers, roads, residential areas, etc.
There are also garrison maps, which, as the name suggests, are maps of garrison garrisons in various places. This top-secret map is even painted.
However, the garrison map of Liangzhou is not of great value to Feng Yong.
There is another important map called the city map.
The city walls, gates and forts, pavilions on the city walls, city streets, palace buildings and other details of the city are plotted above.
The city map is also a top secret map.
But to Governor Feng, the city map was worth less than the garrison map.
At least the Liangzhou garrison map can provide a rough idea of the local fortifications and passes, but the Liangzhou city map does not even have this value.
Because you are already in the city, what better way to observe on the ground than to look at a map?
In the future, the maps of Liangzhou's major cities will definitely need to be redrawn. These city maps are, at most, a rough reference.
On the contrary, the topographic map, which is not as top-secret as the two, is of most use to Feng Yong now.
"A land of plenty indeed."
General Guan can't go to the army in person now, so he can only enjoy the map, "So where does Alang plan to place the Bald Department?"
As she said that, she nodded at Duyezawa, the northernmost part of Wuwei County, "How about here?"
Letting the barbarians act as watchdogs has been a policy of the Han Dynasty for hundreds of years.
Even Cao Cao couldn't escape this inherent thinking. No wonder Guan Ji had such thoughts.
Feng Yong shook his head and refused, "Definitely not."
In the past, the Han Dynasty asked the Huns to guard the frontiers, but it was impossible to do anything because the productivity could not be achieved.
Even in recent years, the Hu people have continued to move inward, which is a manifestation of the continuous shrinking of the Han family's power.
It's different now.
A powerful man with enough power to expand can drive aristocratic families, powerful people, and emerging capital to absorb those frontier lands.
The barbarians in the frontier have a better way out. They can speed up the pace of integrating into the Han Dynasty and work together to revitalize the Han Dynasty, right?
What's more, Du Yeze in the north of Wuwei is the smaller Ju Yanze.
The valley water flowing through Guzang almost runs through the entire Wuwei County and finally flows into Duyeze.
To the north of Duyezawa, there is also the Great Wall built by the Han Dynasty. Outside the Great Wall is the desert.
"Whether it's Juyanze or Duyeze, there's no way I'm going to allow barbarian tribes like the Tufabu to go there to herd animals."
It's okay to move various small tribes there and work as weavers and handymen on the pasture.
But tribes like the Bald Tribe will never allow this.
Both Juyanze and Duyeze are considered frontier places, and they are closely connected to the desert to the north.
Letting the barbarian tribes go will cultivate the Qiang-Hu rebellion in the future.
With the financial resources of a hugely profitable industry, and at the same time, there is no need to worry about food problems, who is crazy enough to cultivate the barbarian tribe like this?
But such an important and rich strategic place cannot be left empty, otherwise more and more barbarians from the desert will flow in.
So let the aristocratic families take the resources they have accumulated for more than a hundred years, or even hundreds of years, to develop there.
It became Feng Yong's choice.
Only in this way can it be possible to leave indelible Han culture there and turn them into real Han lands.
In order to achieve this goal, it is worthwhile to give up some benefits to Hao You.
"If possible, the most important thing I would do is let the Xinghan Association bring enough manpower to open up pastures and reclaim wasteland."
Having said this, Feng Yong shook his head, "Unfortunately, Xinghanhui currently does not have this strength."
"Now that Ju Yanze has been given to the aristocratic family, this Du Ye Ze will be left to the Xinghan Hui."
The Battle of Longyou, the arrangements for the Longyou Qiang and Barbarians, the reconstruction of Feng Yong's camps after the Battle of Xiaoguan, and the rescue of the White Disaster in Liangzhou, etc.
Xinghanhui has had too much blood drawn.
If Yuexun County were not extremely prosperous now, it would be able to provide a large amount of food, silk and horses every year.
If Nanzhong had not developed well, it would have delivered huge profits every year.
If my brother hadn't become a big man now, everyone would see a bright future.
It remains to be seen whether the Xinghan Association can remain united despite excessive allocation of resources.
In fact, Xinghanhui now has no energy left to eat the fat piece of Tonozawa.
In order to compensate them, Governor Feng had no choice but to use his authority to get this benefit for them first, and then digest it later.
Is there anyone in the court who can be an official?
But whether the aristocratic family develops Juyanze or the Xinghan Society develops Noze, they are actually immigrating to Shibian in disguise.
This has been China's national policy since ancient times.
In the pre-Qin period, the Chu State moved its nobles to the border to open up wasteland, develop the border economy, and strengthen national defense.
The First Emperor once "sent out the people who wanted to marry the dead and have their sons-in-law, and the Jia people took over the land of Luliang and made it Guilin, Xiangjun, and Nanhai, so that they could be dispatched to the garrison."
In the Han Dynasty, Emperor Xiaowu immigrated more than 700,000 people at once to strengthen the northern border defense and enrich the northern counties.
Even later generations, no matter what dynasty or generation, have different methods of solid edges.
Exiling prison officials is also a kind of crime.
It is precisely thanks to this national policy that has lasted for thousands of years that even if the power of the Han family temporarily declines in these places, the centripetal force of Han culture can still leave ideas for future generations.
If future generations can live up to their expectations, they can say "since ancient times" with dignity.
Now Governor Feng is just picking on people's wits. The difference is that he has changed the method and used inducement rather than force.
Moreover, the methods adopted by the Shijia and Xinghan Associations will be more violent and more efficient.
Today's big men can't wait that long, they just need this kind of violence and this kind of efficiency.
"So I want the Baldness Department to move here."
Feng Yong pointed at the area between Guzang County and Manyin County, "Before coming to Liangzhou, we had already decided that this is a pasture, and we can allocate part of it to the Tufa Department."
When Feng Yong was serving as the Colonel Protecting Qiang, he started from Pingxiang and vigorously expanded to the north.
Zuli to the north of Pingxiang and Manyin to the northwest of Zuli are both under the jurisdiction of Wuwei County.
In other words, in the past few years, at least half of the area operated by the Qiang Protector's Office belonged to Liangzhou.
When the Manyin County on the bank of the river was planned, hundreds of thousands of acres of land on the east side of the river were cultivated, most of which were planted with beans as food for livestock.
The hundreds of miles of wilderness to the west of the river, all the way to Guzang County, have been planned as pastures.
Now it's finally time to really make a difference.
The Bald Ministry was placed here, and the east and west sides were cultivated by the Han family.
A few years later, if the Bald Tribe can still maintain the appearance of the current tribe, King Feng Gui will stand on his head and have diarrhea on the spot to eat and drink!
Anyway, King Feng Gui did not believe how long the barbarians, who had not even developed their own writing, could sustain themselves under his sugar-coated bullets.
Relatively speaking, other Qianghu in Liangzhou are relatively scattered.
The premise is that the large-scale influx of Hexi Xianbei into Liangzhou must be prevented in a short period of time.
Therefore, the governance of Juyanze and Duyezawa is particularly important.
Only by filling up these two gaps for the Hu people to move south into Liangzhou can Liangzhou take the initiative and selectively integrate on the Han-Hu issue.
"In the future, the Han and Hu people in Liangzhou, regardless of whether they are living, farming or raising animals, must follow the principle of 'living in large groups and living in small groups'. Hu people from a single tribe must not be allowed to stick together."
Governor Feng set the tone for the resettlement of the Qiang and Hu tribes in Liangzhou.
Zhang Xingyi's eyes lit up slightly: "If there are conflicting tribes, they can be placed adjacent to each other..."
Governor Feng glanced at this woman who was full of calculations, "tsk" and said dissatisfiedly:
"We are governing Liangzhou now. The stability of Liangzhou is our goal. Why are you instigating a vendetta if nothing happens?"
Zhang Xingyi suddenly said "Oh" and glanced at Feng Jishi strangely:
"I also said that you want to be like Nanzhong...well, hehe..."
Guan Ji hit Zhang Xingyi on the head reproachfully:
"Don't talk nonsense, Alang has a good reputation in Liangzhou!"
Zhang Xingyi did not dare to resist, so he could only cover his head, but still said with all his heart:
"Since the barbarians are arranged like this, what should we do with the aristocratic families in Xihai County? We must make some arrangements for them, right?"
"Otherwise, if they really take root there and control part of the grassland in Liangzhou, I'm afraid some things will be difficult to deal with."
After hearing this, Guan Ji glanced at Feng Yong.
When the Liangzhou family came to buy land, Governor Feng came to tell her the good news. The two had already discussed this issue.
"What are you afraid of?" Governor Feng said confidently, "Who said we should let them have trouble in Xihai County? What we are selling is pasture, not cultivated land."
"Besides, haven't the arrangements for the students I brought here not been made yet? Let them go to Xihai County when the time comes."
In the land of Mu Yizhou, there was suddenly a shortage of reserve grassroots cadres on hand.
At this time, the army is being reorganized, and there is also a shortage of veterans in the army. Who is willing to let them withdraw from the army unless it is absolutely necessary?
Therefore, it is impossible to control Liangzhou from top to bottom like Yuexun.
In the past two or three years, it has been an unexpected surprise to have been able to pick out some useful talents during the exam.
The aristocratic families in other counties are deeply rooted in the local area. If they send a few students there, they will be eaten by others. It is better to concentrate them in one county.
After regaining Xihai County, the governor's office has the final say on how to plan the grassroots level?
Just like Nanxiang Yuexun Pingxiang, white paper is the best for painting.
Knowing that Governor Feng had already made arrangements, Mrs. Zhang couldn't help but sneer secretly.
She didn't dare to provoke the Feng family's wife, but she gave Governor Feng a look of disdain behind her back: Where is the good reputation that she promised?
Governor Feng expressed that he had received it, and then continued to say slowly:
"Last year, both Han and Hu suffered from the White Disaster, so I decided to move some of the people who could not afford to live to settle in Xihai County."
"At that time, the government will lend them cattle, farm tools, and grain seeds, exempt them from corvee labor, provide them with winter and summer clothing, food, etc., and then collect taxes as usual when they can be self-sufficient."
"When there is surplus grain, the government will purchase it at a price that is 30% higher than the current year's grain price for five consecutive years."
Most of the Qiang and Hu people in Liangzhou are part-farmers and part-grazers. When there is no way to survive, giving them a place to live and let them cultivate is the greatest kindness.
I am a good person!
Governor Feng thought to himself.
"How much food will this cost..."
Mrs. Zhang, the chief housekeeper of the Governor's Mansion, subconsciously felt distressed.
"You can come back after a thousand pieces of gold have been dispersed! What are you afraid of? Not to mention that the Wei thieves in Guanzhong don't dare to act rashly now. Even if they have the strength to spare, there is Longyou blocking them in the east."
"Coupled with the help of the Dunhuang Zhang family, caravans traveling to the Western Regions will soon be normalized. Are you worried about running out of money and food?"
The Silk Road is the golden road.
What's more, Xinghanhui still has so many resources.
We have already raised most of the money and food from selling the land, and with the materials that will be supported by the Xinghan Association later, we don't have to worry too much this year.
As for next year, with the Silk Road, are you still worried about running out of money?
"Will you come back after all your money has been spent?"
Not to mention General Guan, even Secretary Zhang no longer cared about money and food. They both repeated in unison, "Good sentence!"
"Alang hasn't written an article for a long time..."
Guan Ji stroked her belly and said, "I heard that if your children listen to some good literature early, they will be smarter in the future!"
"We are discussing national affairs. Where can we think of anything to write about at this meeting?" Governor Feng flatly refused, "Let's talk about it later."
"Isn't that all finished? Is there anything else?"
Zhang Xingyi said dissatisfiedly, and at the same time flipped through the folder on his hand, indicating that the meeting topic had come to an end and that we could talk about the article.
"Someone, call Liu Liang over."
Feng Yong was too lazy to pay attention to her, turned around angrily, and shouted to the door.
Pregnant women have the privilege to come up with whatever they want.
You're not pregnant, so why are you just joining in the fun if you don't do anything serious?
Liu Liang came in quickly: "I've met my brother, sister-in-law, and Secretary Zhang."
Feng Yong nodded slightly:
"Honglang, there are two things you need to do now."
"Brother, please give me your instructions."
"Aren't you married to that Bald-faced Khotan? Now go to Jiuquan and tell Bald-Fated Khotan that I am going to set aside a pasture here for the Bald-haired tribe to settle down."
Feng Yong said while pointing out on the map.
"At that time, the government will send people to help them build green storage towers so that their people will not be cold in the winter and protected from the sun in the summer. The wool and other products produced will be purchased by the government in exchange for food."
"Of course, if their tribe wants to learn farming, I can allocate more land for them."
Want to farm? Juyanze and Tonozawa are the right places to go.
"It's much more comfortable than over there in the cold and cold West Sea. It can be regarded as a reward for them fighting for the Han Dynasty in the past few years."
Liu Liang quickly agreed.
"The second thing is, don't you have a good relationship with the tribes in Liangzhou? After finishing the matter in Jiuquan, I will trouble you to find those Qiang Hu who have farming habits."
"Just tell me that the government is planning to cultivate land in Juyanze and Duyeze. You can see which tribe is willing to farm there. You can take note of it."
Liu Liang spent a year in Liangzhou, and he learned all about the details of many tribes.
Coupled with Liu's aura as a big man, Qiang and Hu people naturally have some trust in him.
He explained the government’s preferential policies and then emphasized:
"Remember, just go to the small tribes. The more the merrier, don't go to the big tribes."
When Liu Liang heard this, he looked at Feng Yong with some surprise, then bowed his head deeply and said, "I understand."
Prepare for spring plowing, arrange the resettlement place for the Hu people in Liangzhou, and formulate policy policies for the next few years...
When the governor's office was very busy, the first group of barbarians who set off from Juyanze and headed south against the weak river finally appeared in the distance.
