Chastity Layman

Qin Lang is an ordinary person, he didn't think about being named as a prime minister to leave his name in history, even if he has been prime minister twice, he is still greedy for money and lustful.

But this did not prevent him from coming out to help when he saw the Tang monarchs and ministers taking a detour.

Li Shimin was a little naive, thinking that if someone called him Tian Khan, he would really become his subject, but he didn't or was unwilling to think about it at a deeper level.

Whether it is Yu Sheshe or Qin Guozhong, as long as he still has 100,000 people in his hands, as long as he still has his own territory, then no matter whether he stays in Chang'an or not, these people are actually under his command, even after a few days. In ancient times, even if these people moved from Fengzhou to Shuofang, this would not change a bit.

They always have the ability to reverse.

And what the imperial court has to do is not to give him this ability, so that they can't do it if they want to, instead of giving them the ability but never rebelling.

This is like some stupid wives deliberately testing their husbands, deliberately creating opportunities for their husbands to cheat, but in fact, how many men can really stand the test.

Human nature cannot stand the test, after all, there are only a few saints throughout the ages.

The best way is not to give them this opportunity, not to give them this ability.

No matter whether the Yushe tribe stays in Fengzhou or moves to Shuofang, as long as their tribal troops are not split up and their autonomy is not taken away, there will be no change, and hidden dangers will always exist.

"Your Majesty, I'm not dissatisfied with the King of Huaihua County, let alone the Yushe Department. On the contrary, I actually like the King of Huaihua County. He is generous and generous, and he has a heart for the Tang Dynasty. The herdsmen of the Yushe Department are also friendly and enthusiastic." , However, as a minister of His Majesty, as a minister of the Great Tang Dynasty, you must plan for the future generations of the Great Tang Dynasty, and you must plan for your descendants."

"The Hu people's internal policy is not wrong in the present, but in the future!"

A mistake in the future made Li Shimin completely vigilant.

You must know that the most important thing to be an emperor is to guard against powerful ministers, traitors, this and that, and all precautions are actually based on one point, the crime will be in the future.

A person, a country, or a policy not only depends on whether it is good at the moment, but also whether there are hidden dangers in the future.

As the so-called sin is in the future, it means that there is no problem now, but there may be problems in the future.

Employing people is like this, and governing the country is like this.

"What suggestion do you have? It can't hurt the hearts of the internally attached Hu people, but also can prevent the future?" At this time, Li Shimin still cares more about the premise that the internally attached Hu people cannot be destroyed.

"Your Majesty, first of all, there is a red line, that is, no barbarian can cross the Great Wall!"

Li Shimin nodded, indicating that this is acceptable.

"Secondly, the six prefectures set up in the Anbei Metropolitan Protectorate are Zhengzhou. Within the Zhengzhou of the Tang Dynasty, there should be no longer a prefecture, no country within a country, and no more places for the Hu people to self-govern."

Qin Lang suggested that for a large tribe with a population of tens of thousands such as the Yushe tribe, it is necessary to adopt a combination of strategies to resettle them.

It is only one of the ways to recruit young and strong people to go south to Lingnan. This is the strategy of recruiting young people.

The Yushe Department has tens of thousands of tents, so the imperial court can draw one dick from each tent and transfer six thousand to Lingnan, on the grounds of quelling the barbaric chaos. The units are scattered in the states and military mansions.

The other 4,000 people can follow this example and be sent to central Guizhou, Yunnan, and western Sichuan in the southwest, and these people can be responsible for raising army horses or being responsible for logistics and transportation.

Then again, one ding per account will be drawn, and this time 10,000 ding will be drawn, and a brigade of 100 people or a team of 50 people will be arranged to go to the shepherds in Longyou Heshuo and other places in the Tang Dynasty to raise horses and cattle.

In this way, 20,000 young adults will be taken away.

Although a tribe of ten thousand accounts is strong, it can only have a maximum of about 100,000 people, including the old, weak, women, children, and slaves. This time, 20,000 young and strong will be removed. In fact, the young and strong of the Yushe tribe will be removed. Nearly half, they have also been cut off by half of their combat effectiveness.

For the rest of the Yushe Department, you can extend the entitlement.

"The king of Huaihua County is unwilling to leave in Chang'an, so the court can take advantage of the situation to entrust his sons. The ten sons of the county king can all be named marquises, let them each have a thousand tents, and divide them into tribes, cattle and horses. The most important division Pastures, set boundaries."

"The Ten Marquises do not command each other, do not interfere with each other, and are forbidden to cross the border. However, if there are disputes in litigation, the Duhufu can hold regular alliances during the Spring and Autumn Period."

Qin Lang proposed that the ten thousand accounts of the Yu She Department should be split into ten.

It is best to keep these ten parts separate and not get together.

What Qin Lang meant was to move the Yushe tribe from Hetao to nomadic pastures outside the Langshan Pass, and re-divide their pastures. Each tribe can be compiled into a banner, and several banners can be compiled into a league.

This is similar to how the Manchus later reorganized the Mongols' rule and strengthened management, and the effect was good.

For those Zahu in Monan, even those in the Great Wall, we will further manage them, let them naturalize directly, and turn some Zahu tribes into imperial pastures.

"The ten thousand tents of the Yushe tribe are divided into ten divisions, each with a banner, and then separated from other Turkic and Tiele tribes to draw boundaries, and then divided into several alliances. The banner is selected and appointed by the imperial court from among the nobles in the banner, and serves as the governor."

Li Shimin heard something.

"Your Majesty, the imperial court must be able to actually command these internally attached Hu people, and cannot allow them to govern themselves. It is meaningless to simply restrain them. It is necessary to establish social order, administrative divisions, and administrative organizations at all levels."

Qin Lang no longer set up a prefecture for these attached Hu people according to the tradition, just to distinguish the past management methods.

Mengheqi is not just a name change, but a brand new management system.

It is no longer the Hu people's self-government system of the past, but a new system in which the imperial court deeply participates in management.

Take the Yushe tribe as an example, they used to be an entire tribe with one leader, but now Qin Lang wants to split them into ten banners, which belong to three or five alliances with other tribe banners. The alliance will be held by officials sent by the imperial court, and the banner owner will also be conferred by the imperial court.

The most important thing is that in this way, one of the Yushe tribes will become ten, and they will not belong to each other, which will naturally lessen the threat to the imperial court.

The population of each banner must be naturalized and must pay taxes.

All will be placed under the unified management of Datang.

"A little too aggressive."

After listening to Li Shimin, he finally gave a comment. This can only be said to be a beautiful ideal, but it is not easy to implement now.

What Qin Lang sees are the Hu people who are attached to them now, but Li Shimin's eyes are looking at the Jieli, Tuli, and Tiele tribes that have not yet joined, and even the barbarian Hu tribes such as Western Turks, Tuyuhun, Goguryeo, etc. , if the policy introduced now is too radical, then other Hu people may not be willing to join in the future.

However, he also admitted that what Qin Lang said was also reasonable.

So he pondered again and again.

Li Shimin decided to slightly revise Qin Lang's proposal.

From Yusheshe and other internal affiliated departments, first one account will be drawn and one person will be transferred to Lingnan, Southwest and other places to flat barbarians and towns, but the court admits that the three-year period will expire. After the three-year period expires, these people can go home and another batch Hu people come over.

These three years are equivalent to serving in the Tang Dynasty military service. For meritorious service, he will be awarded an official, and there will be compensation for casualties.

Then one person will be taken from each account of the various ministries, and they will build pastures in various places or send them to various pastures to graze for the court and the royal family. This is also a three-year period.

Qin Lang proposed to place all the Hu people attached to Yinshan to the north of Yinshan Mountain, but Li Shimin felt that this was not realistic.

Now that the population of the Tang Dynasty is small, even if it is really possible to resettle these barbarians and move north, Fengsheng, Hue, Yunshuo and other places, including Yanyin and other states, are also empty and cannot be barren.

Therefore, Li Shimin believes that there should be a compromise.

For these internally attached Hu people, they can be subdivided and divided, but it does not need to be as complicated as setting up the alliance flag. It is better to directly set these divided tribes as Jijizhou and counties. For example, part of Yu She enshrined ten sons as marquises, and divided ten divisions, each division was compiled into a county, and five or six counties attached to the Hu people were compiled into a prefecture.

These prefectures and counties are Jimi prefectures and counties, which belong to Zhengzhou under the Anbei Metropolitan Protectorate.

The governors and county magistrates of Jimi were appointed by the imperial court to serve as the chiefs of the Hu people attached to them, while the chief officials, Sima, and military officers were appointed by the imperial court.

On the other hand, it is also necessary to naturalize the population, grant pastures, delineate boundaries, and prohibit crossing the boundaries.

If there are any disputes, etc., it will be heard by Jimi Prefecture first, and then reported to the Zhengzhou Yamen for review...

Anbei Dadufu has six Zhengzhous, each state has four Jimizhous, and each Jimizhou has six Jimi counties under its jurisdiction. These Jimizhou counties are clearly demarcated, so that Han and Hu live in a mixed manner.

The emperor has the emperor's consideration.

However, Qin Lang was still somewhat dissatisfied with this result.

Doing so would still give them too much power.

"Your Majesty, the governor and county magistrate must be selected by the imperial court from among the ministries..."

Twenty-four Jimi prefectures and one hundred and forty-four Jimi counties are too many, but if it is really possible to completely implement the enfeoffment of Tween, then a larger number will also help weaken the strength of the tribe.

It's just that there are still many troubles.

But Li Shimin already felt that this was not bad, otherwise, the attached Hu people would probably be dissatisfied and want to betray, so how can he recruit Dongxi Turks, Tie Le, Tuyuhun and other Hus in the future?

The governor of Jimi Prefecture was granted the title of Marquis, and the magistrate of Jimi County was granted the title of Bo.

The imperial court does not give additional food towns, but formulates taxes for these prefectures and counties, stipulating that the income tax in the counties will be divided into three parts, one part will go to the county feudal uncle, one part will go to the prefecture feudal lord, and one part will go to the national treasury.

"Do you think Qin Guozhong would be willing to accept it?" the emperor asked.

Qin Lang knew Qin Guozhong quite well, "Your Majesty favored the distribution of feudal titles. Wouldn't he be unwilling to confer titles on his ten sons as marquises and each of them the post of governor? Even his grandchildren and nephews can be granted titles Bo Ren County Magistrate, there are sixty earls and county magistrates!"

When Qin Guozhong first joined the imperial court, he probably never thought that Datang could control Hetao so quickly, and even made Jieli kneel down, so he might have hugged Datang's thick legs and continued to control Fengzhou, challenge Jieli, live his happy life, but now the situation is changing so fast that Yu Sheshe has no chance to react at all. Now he has no other choice but to accept Datang's arrangement Walk.

Although Datang's arrangement was not as good as he had planned, it was still acceptable, so he couldn't resist, so he could only accept it.

"Okay, it's up to you to explain this matter to Qin Guozhong, and ask him to call his brothers, descendants, etc. into Beijing to be enshrined!" Li Shimin also directly handed over this task to Qin Lang.

Qin Lang agreed.

Although the current results are not satisfactory, they are still better than those proposed by Chaozhong Wen Yanbo and others to relocate Neifu Hu people within the Great Wall, or even to Guanzhong, Henan, and Hebei.
