All the major aristocratic families feel that as long as I keep a steady attitude, I will be able to hold on. Although the bandits are quite strong, my fortress is no joke. Don't panic, just hold on steady.
So while the major families were carefully observing, the bandits in Anxi quickly started to move. Among these bandits, except for a very few big bosses, they barely had the ability to be partially self-sufficient. Most of the bandits mainly focused on
By plundering.
However, the place of Parthia has reached its current level, and ordinary plundering is no longer powerful. Now, if you want to rob food, you mainly rely on plundering the Parthian people who have organized and restored production under the major aristocratic families.
By the way, this is also one of the important reasons why Chang'an has not taken the initiative to exterminate the Anxi bandits. Compared with these bandits who started in the grass, most of the Han family know how to build, even the very poor ones.
The family, after all, knows how to resume production.
After all, it is impossible for the Han Dynasty's population to flow out in the millions, and it is impossible to provide endless blood supply to the major families. For Chen Xi, the Central Asian family plus the Yuan family, Cao family, and Sun family, the number is between 8 million and 1,000.
The support from the local population of 10,000 is stretched to its limit, and even one more person will not be enough.
Under these prerequisites, aristocratic families cannot even gather enough people to build a country. Large aristocratic families can only drag out a population of two to three million. It is very difficult to establish a country with this population. Therefore, the native population of Anxi is very important.
These aristocratic families are very important.
However, how to naturalize these populations and become the population they need depends on the ability of each family. In theory, this is actually a very difficult matter, so Li You suggested dividing the Anxi population into groups.
Bandits, ordinary Parthian people, and Parthian people who are willing to plan.
Chen Xi didn't think too deeply at first, but later Chen Xi actually understood it, but in the end he didn't say anything and just carried it out.
After all, the Han family is a foreign population. No matter how nice you say it, it can't change this identity. So how to integrate into it requires skills.
The existence of thieves is the greatest skill. Most of the thieves in this world who were born in the rough can only destroy, but not produce. This reality continued in the Central Plains from BC to the 20th century.
Early days.
The way of survival of thieves is to plunder, and they themselves do not have the ability to produce.
No matter how bad the Han family is, they can still engage in production, and most of the feudal families are more motivated to engage in production when they have fiefdoms than state officials, because state officials serve the country, and this group of feudal princes have fiefdoms.
, striving for development is to do things for yourself.
People who work for themselves are always the most active and enterprising.
Under such circumstances, even if the enclosure of land by major aristocratic families would cause natural rejection of the local people in Anxi, compared to the local bandits who robbed their rations and made it impossible for them to survive, there would be a few capable people.
The far-sighted "people" care that land that is not theirs is being taken away.
The greatest harm in this world is contrast. In this situation of obvious contrast, the Han family's error tolerance can rise to an incredible level.
To put it too much, as long as the Han family does not seek death, the people of Anxi will gradually recognize the identity and status of the Han family as social production resumes. This process is a process of gathering people's hearts and establishing legitimacy.
To be honest, in the process of resuming production, last year they were so anxious that they directly used knives and guns to force the Parthian people in their own fiefdom to work and implemented military control. When the Parthian people were slightly unrest, the Han family who carried out the eleventh killing really did it.
Is it good?
In fact, it is really not very good, but no matter how brutal the order is, the Han family is still carrying out ruthless production restoration and social system restoration.
Relying on the rationing system instituted by Liu Ba, under a situation of high pressure but maintaining the most basic fairness, the Central Asian families, including the Yin family and the Guo family, which had already rushed to the street, have all completed basic production recovery and production.
The lowest social system operates.
During this period, many Kushan people died, but when the summer grain harvest came and the major families indifferently took away the rents they had set, leaving enough food and grass for the Parthian people, the social environment became extremely tense under the previous high pressure.
, suddenly relaxed.
Afterwards, the people of Parthia recognized a lot of the local aristocratic families that managed their own homes, and began to recognize each other as the local government. After the major aristocratic families gathered their grain and began to suppress the thieves who robbed their food, orthodoxy was quickly established.
Especially after the food that my family had worked so hard for half a year failed to eat and was robbed by bandits. The family that controlled the local area took the initiative to defeat the bandits and began to distribute food for disaster relief. The concept of orthodoxy and officialdom was quickly established.
stand up.
This is also an important reason why the Han family was able to quickly gain a foothold. Without the group of thieves as negative teaching materials for them, they are probably still in a stalemate with the local people, which may free up their hands for military training and confrontation.
But I have to say that the person who implemented this plan really has a black heart.
Also because of the help of Li You and Liu Ba, major aristocratic families even completed the integration of local forces before Aldashir. This made the mentality a little too inflated, because it was too smooth, although there were a few unlucky children.
, but most are making steady progress.
Think about it, it took Ardashir so long to barely stabilize its rule until now. This group of aristocratic families basically completed the restoration of social order before September last year, although a large part of it lies in
Ardashir wanted to save more people, but in the end he was dragged down to this by the people's shortsightedness, but he had to admit that these people were indeed very capable.
So far, major aristocratic families have even begun to build administrative levels, trying to imitate the merging of villages and villages carried out by Chen Xi and others.
Although all the major aristocratic families were beaten by Chen Xi during the process of merging villages into villages and were not very satisfied with the behavior of merging villages into villages in the Central Plains, when they reached the conceptual level of the country, they all
I agree with Chen Xi's philosophy that a management system that can penetrate into the grassroots level of society is very necessary, and a strong and powerful central government is very necessary.
Therefore, any aristocratic family with a little foresight would choose to become the person they scolded back then...
For these guys, even a few curse words won't hurt them, the benefits are enough.
As a result, the social organizational power of Ardashir has obviously begun to widen the gap with the aristocratic families of the Han Dynasty. However, if you think about it carefully, this is normal. China has always been particular about the need for a strong government, and even directly responds to the government's requirements.
It is metaphysical omnipotence.
To put it simply, not only basic things such as food and clothing, but also all the things I think I need, the government must take care of it. It is best to take care of me from the time I am born to the time I am buried, so that I can take care of everything.
Don't worry, just follow the steps.
What’s even more frightening is that in the Central Plains, not only do people think this way, but the government itself is also developing in this direction. I just want to develop in an all-powerful direction. There is no problem that the central government cannot solve. If there is, it must be development.
There is a problem and it needs to be stronger and more powerful.
The same is true for the major aristocratic families. Although they thought it was bad to do so when they were not in power, after they came to power, they naturally agreed with this concept. They must be omnipotent, and if they cannot do anything,
There must be a problem.
Therefore, after the people of Anxi successfully resumed production and restored order, they were immediately shrouded in a social order that was far stronger than before, and they had no time to think about anything else.
This is also an important reason why most of the aristocratic families can fight against the local thieves and bandits of Parthia. At present, except for the word "local", everything else among the local thieves is not even as popular as the Han family, and the word "local" is gradually declining.
It has become a remnant of history, a trace of the Parthian era, rather than a trace of the new era.
It is precisely because of this change that the Anxi bandits who cannot produce and can only destroy, after their hearts gradually fade away, the lack of food even makes the lower class bandits begin to actively plan for the Han family. In this world, no one can defeat the thieves except
Weapons, and famine.
Just like the development of the Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou, these Parthian people who joined the bandits because of the famine could also desert the Parthian bandits because of the famine.
Therefore, after the Kushan envoys used Ardashir as an intermediary and informed the major bandits that as long as they went south to the Persian Gulf and established themselves there, Kushan was willing to provide them with food and grass support, many of them were about to be forced to disperse by food and grass.
The bandits decisively headed south.
Even Nihavin, one of the few bandits who knew how to resume production in the wilderness, chose to go south after receiving the news. After all, just relying on farming on his own and learning the methods of the Han Dynasty will sooner or later be overrun by the Han.
The room was wiped out.
The Yang family of Hongnong had sent people to persuade Nihaven again and again, and was even willing to give him autonomy. However, after thinking about it again and again, Nihaven finally gave up. For some reason, he always felt that he should not live like this.
, I should live like a general, conquering Persia.
Nihavin, who was trapped in a corner, knew very well that no matter how hard he fought, if the Yang family continued to develop, his subordinates would collapse sooner or later. If he turned to the Yang family now, he could still get quite good benefits, but if he waited
If he is defeated, I'm afraid there will be nothing in exchange for it.
But Nihavin just couldn't accept it. He always felt that his future should not be to work as a dog for a family that appeared from nowhere and was said to be a noble family of the Han Dynasty.
I should be regarded as a general, a general who controls the five million square kilometers of Persia's homeland. I shouldn't be like this. With this idea in mind, Nihavin finally chose to go south.
He wanted to give it a try and rely on the support of Kushan to show his true strength. He had no chance before, but the appearance of the Kushan envoy gave him an opportunity to prove himself.
