Before Wang Fu returned to Yangzhou, the little fat man immediately held a court meeting, hoping to get a decision on how to deal with the Xiongnu tribe through him. After all, if he relied on his political ability, Wang Fu could be regarded as the number one in the court. A famous minister, his strategies for governing the country are far superior to those of others. How to rest, Wen Rensui, Yuan Feng, Qiao Xuan and other ministers cannot compare with him.
The little fat man knew this in his heart.
As for Xun You, Tian Feng, Xing Ziang and others, they are still young and cannot reach Wang Fu's level.
When the court meeting was held, Dong Zhuo, who had just arrived in Beijing, was also called in. He had just returned from the border fortress, so he naturally had his own opinions and views on the Huns. The little fat man sat on the upper seat, looked at Dong Zhuo with a smile, and said : "Dong Jun has done a great job. He has lived up to my high expectations. I am very happy!" Dong Zhuo stood up and hurriedly bowed: "I just abide by my duty and don't dare to ask for credit. Your Majesty loves me so much!"
The little fat man praised him a few more times before getting to the point.
"Your Majesty!" Yes, it was Yuan Ping. He came out unswervingly and said: "Many counties and counties in Youzhou are suffering from severe drought, and the farmland has been harvested. I hope that the national treasury can fund these areas and send disaster relief ministers to deal with it. Related matters!”
The little fat man took this matter very seriously, nodded and said: "I will appoint you as the Minister of Disaster Relief in Youzhou to handle related affairs. You must not let any of my people starve to death! How much money is needed, just ask Wen Renjun, If there is not enough food, you can borrow it from Qingzhou, Jizhou and other places!"
Yuan Ping accepted the order and said: "There is a drought in Youzhou, but it is caused by the drought demon. The drought demon in the court is the old thief Wang Fu. This thief will not die, and the disaster will never end. I hope your majesty can comply with the people's sentiments and cook the king's letter in return." The country is at peace!"
"How outrageous! Your Majesty is an important minister in the court and a high-ranking official in the border areas. How dare you, a small official with thousands of stones, dare to slander an important minister and alienate the king and his ministers??!"
Everyone was stunned, because it was Wen Renxi who spoke. After hearing Yuan Ping's words, Wang Fu didn't show any surprise. Instead, Wen Renxi jumped out and cursed. Among the ministers, except Wang Fu, everyone else He was extremely shocked. Even Yuan Ping was so surprised that he forgot to refute. Wang Fu felt a little complicated. This was the first time someone in the court defended him like this.
He looked at Wen Renxi and smiled. The officials looked at the two people suspiciously, what's going on? There's adultery!
The little fat man was also a little surprised. It seemed that these two guys had the same affinity and became close friends. However, these two guys were not welcomed by the officials in the court. The little fat man was not afraid of their alliance. Their alliance , he would only suffer a more fierce attack from the ministers. The little fat man suppressed Yuan Ping and said: "These matters will not be mentioned in the future. The Xiongnu Chanyu Yufuluo is already in Luoyang..."
"You still have to come up with a way for me on how to deal with the Huns."
Hearing the emperor's inquiry, He Xiu, Yuan Feng, Wen Renxi and other ministers were silent. They also put forward their opinions many times. When the emperor wanted to ask at this moment, he naturally did not want to know their thoughts. They slowly looked at Looking at Wang Fu, he had been in Yangzhou for a long time and had not heard about these things. He frowned and thought about it. He stood up and said, "Mr. Dong returned from Youzhou for the first time. I wonder what the situation of the Xiongnu is now?"
Dong Zhuo also thought for a moment and then said: "They settled in Bingzhou, grazing and domesticating livestock, but the heavy snows in successive years have caused them to suffer great losses. Now, they can only trade with the people of Jizhou and Youzhou. In exchange for the needed food and baggage, I heard from them that for some reason, there has been a severe cold in the north in recent years, and numerous livestock have been frozen to death and frostbitten, making it difficult to survive by grazing."
Wang Fu nodded and asked: "What is their attitude towards big men?"
"From the Chanyu to the people, they have special respect for Your Majesty, because Your Majesty once said during hunting that all those who enter the Han Dynasty are my subjects, and there is no distinction between high and low. This makes the people in the frontier fortress regard Your Majesty as a god, many of them
The area worshiped the statue of the Emperor, and Yufuluo and I defeated Xianbei. I wanted to use the territory and livestock to boost the morale of the army, but he didn't take any money. He just wanted to enter Luoyang and pay homage to His Majesty."
Wang Fu asked again: "I wonder how powerful the Huns are? Are they still good at fighting?"
"There are tens of thousands of people who can ride a horse and shoot a bow. They are very skilled with bows and horses, but they are not as good as those of Xianbei, and they are even worse than our Northern Army."
Wang Fu then spoke: "Nowadays, the people's settlements are booming, but Youzhou and Bingzhou lack manpower, so the cultivated fields are mostly deserted. I suggest that the Huns be given land and teach them the methods of farming.
, let them move to areas suitable for farming and with fertile land. In addition, if there are those who do not want to settle down and farm, they can join the command of Colonel Wu Huan and follow them in battle."
"I think Mr. Dong is worthy of this position because of his meritorious service. In this way, if the old Huns work in the fields and the strong ones join the army, then the land of the Han Dynasty will be safe. In addition, let the children of the Huns enter the official school and learn the six chapters of He Gong.
Learn the culture of our Han Dynasty, bathe in the literary style, open another subject in Taixue, recruit scholars and talents from the Xiongnu, Qiang and other surrenders, and appoint them as officials."
"As for the Xiongnu tribesmen who farm, they are under the jurisdiction of local officials in various places, and Xiongnu captains are no longer appointed!"
He Xiu frowned and asked: "How can the Huns be officials of the Han Dynasty? Are you not deceiving me that there is no one in the Central Plains?" Wang Fu smiled coldly and said: "Does Mr. He know Jin Jinghou?"
He Xiu was immediately speechless. This Jin Jinghou was none other than Jin Rixi from the Huns. He was also a great Confucian and a famous minister of the Han Dynasty. With him as a precedent, He Xiu could say more. Hearing the attack, he stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty
, I want to build a canal from Gaotang to Yishui. Its benefits will cover seven counties in the three weeks of Jiyouqing and benefit millions of people. I don’t know if I might send the Huns as laborers to build the canal..."
"No!" The little fat man was very determined, and he said: "I can't bear to bully the meritorious officials." Hearing the attack, he shook his head helplessly, and Wang Fu suddenly said: "North of Youzhou, there is Goguryeo, and many other places.
The indigenous barbarians are a small country in Goguryeo, but they often invade the border areas of Youzhou. The indigenous barbarians are their accomplices. Mr. Dong, after you take office as the Wuhuan Colonel, you can lead the Huns and Wuhuan people to the north of Youzhou...
.”
"Capture some native barbarians and return. I heard that these natives do not distinguish between father and son, and mother and son live together. I, the Han Dynasty, are a country of etiquette and have the mission of civilizing the world. Therefore, I captured these natives, taught them etiquette, and let them build canals and learn architecture.
This technique can also reflect my strong character, Mr. Dong, can you understand?"
Dong Zhuo was dumbfounded. He understood, but he just wanted me to capture some natives as laborers. A great scholar is indeed a great scholar. This is all said so openly. However, it seems that I have not been canonized by your majesty, and I am not a protector of the Wuhuan School.
Lieutenant, is it really appropriate for you to give me such an order directly? He raised his head and looked at the emperor, who was not angry.
It can be said that Liu Hong is completely used to Wang Fu's out-of-bounds and rude behavior.
Just arrest them if you want. I, a big man, can teach the natives to be civilized, which can be regarded as fulfilling my obligation.
Regarding Wang Fu's words, none of the ministers in the court had any objections. Instead, they nodded as a matter of course. The great Han scholar-bureaucrats of this era all have a sense of mission for the times. They feel that they are the core of the world, and there is something unique about them.
His sense of mission, for example, is to educate the world and expand civilization. This is the same as that of a certain country thousands of years later.
They also believe that they are the core of civilization and carry out their civilizing mission everywhere. The looting and massacre in the process is not important to them. What is important is that they feel that they have completed their mission and made the world civilized.
In terms of this sense of mission unique to nobles and scholar-bureaucrats, the Han Empire was quite similar to the later Empire on which the Sun Never Sets.
Use the most advanced weapons and the most advanced civilization of this era to continuously expand civilization, and take the expansion and enlightenment of this civilization as your innate mission and belief.
