1.44 Descending the Diqiang

There are five barbarians in the Han Dynasty.

The Five Barbarians: Xiongnu, Xianbei, Jie, Di, and Qiang.

After a century of Qiang Rebellion, the empire became increasingly declining, and eventually led to collapse. The subsequent Five Barbarians invaded China, and the poison became even stronger. It was a tragic situation.

As mentioned earlier, integration and unification are the general trend. However, it is particularly important for whoever leads and follows others. You must not put the cart before the horse. Under normal circumstances, it should be dominated by higher civilizations and powerful parties. However, looking at the five thousand years, due to internal and external troubles, natural disasters and man-made disasters, you will often give up the dominance and give up the lower civilizations.

How to judge the advantages and disadvantages of civilization depends on one's opinion, but there is always a consensus.

Overall: the wilderness era of eating raw meat and drinking blood must be lower than the slave era. The slave era must be lower than the feudal era. The feudal era must be lower than the industrial era. The industrial era must be lower than the technological era. And so on.

Having said that, the feudal dynasty was repeatedly destroyed by slave tribes. Liu Bei did not want to investigate the reasons for each of them.

However, in the present when the Five Barbarians and Four Barbarians were all proud of the sinicization. How could Liu Bei not take advantage of the situation and integrate into my glorious heavenly Han?

In terms of inclusiveness, I am the only one who is strong in the Chinese.

In the Xiliang area, there were only one thousand Qiang areas, and there were no less than one million. What's more, there were also the Western Qiang species, as well as the Di races. The Wudu area was guarding the throat. The Di people were entrenched and ruled their own affairs. The Di people were all owned by the Di chief and were not used by the empire. Therefore, only by making a lot of money to build a good Qiang canal and the Di chief could be at peace.

In this way, both raising tigers and causing trouble, and also allowing Qiangqu, Di chiefs and rats to watch on both sides, the court was weak, so they would resist. The court was strong and they would surrender. Both surrender and rebellion were all due to benefits. How could King Ji be tolerated by such a fence?

The two planners were planning to sail along the river. They wanted to use the management to identify the floods and eliminate the Qiang and Di future troubles.

Like the Qiang people who had moved three hundred miles away, they only needed to be hired as workers. Whether they were managing water or digging mountains, they could be used for me. They just had to leave the old village where the patriarchal law was strict, eat and live with the Han people, and pay equal work. Within a few years, they were "entitled" and returned to the administration of officials.

Seeing that Liu Bei cherishes the people like this, Cao Cao once asked questions. Liu Bei replied that the people of the Han Dynasty were all civilized. Just as the Chinese in later generations looked up to foreigners, they heard that they were foreigners, no matter what their background, ability, expertise, or hidden diseases, would attract countless crazy bees, waves, butterflies and flock to them. The reason was the power of civilization.

In a nutshell, people go to high places, and water flows to low places.

Put your heart in mind. Nowadays, even an ordinary Han citizen is a "civilized person" who needs to be looked up to in the eyes of Qianghu, or deep in his heart.

If you can take advantage of the situation and move subtly, guide and guide with kindness and power, you will be both kind and powerful. Why worry about the barbarians not returning to the king's transformation?

When Dayu controlled the flood, it was not blocking. When King Ji ruled the country, it was not killing indiscriminately.

He received an oral order from the general of the Han Dynasty, the King of Ji, Liu Bei. Yang Pu and Yang Teng did not dare to neglect them, so he lightly entered the city and worshipped him in front of the hall.

Liu Bei asked how many young and strong laborers were in the village.

Yang Pu and Yang Teng answered truthfully. Each was more than ten thousand young and strong.

Liu Bei asked again, how much labor can the Di chief in the county raise?

The two said that there was about 100,000.

Liu Bei nodded happily, very good.

Then he asked, "Her labor force of 100,000 yuan, a daily wage of 200 yuan. Are you willing to go out of the village, dig up mountains and open the road, and plough the fields?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the hall was shocked.

The two were overjoyed: "But they were like the thirty-six Qiang people!" A million Qiang people, who were carrying their families and migrated to various places, earning 200 "big money" a day. How can they not make people jealous? Ji State has coins and four out of money. Because they have enough money to weigh five zhu and another Dui Wu, they are called "big money" by people at that time.

Liu Bei shook his head and said, "Thirty-six tribes were forced to rebel, and 'moved for 300 miles, Wancheng Dan Chong' was a prison sentence. You and others were not at fault, so how could they get the punishment? There is no need to deduct sentencing, 200 coins a day."

Even the scholar Qiu Jing couldn't help but make a comment: "In this way, it will cost 600 million yuan per month."

"That's right." Li Ru replied with a smile: "It's all taken from the full term of the treasure treasury, and the old man is not deceived."

"We Di people can also open an account in the treasure house?" The happiness came too suddenly, and Yang Pu couldn't believe it. Nowadays, having a family and personal account is almost a symbol of identity. Even in Longyou, the "account book" is equivalent to "account book".

Liu Bei intended to increase the credit and reputation of the loan library as much as possible.

"What's wrong?" King Ji smiled warmly, like a spring breeze.

"I will go back to the village and contact my companions." The so-called "people die for money, birds die for food." The huge wealth is infused, and the two of them are not willing to delay for a moment.

"Go quickly and return quickly." Liu Bei then let the two of them leave.

The officials in the hall were all worried.

Everyone in the world says that Ji King is unparalleled in the world. Now you can see the whole leopard. Billions of money are worth billions of dollars in a flash. The face is not red, the breath is not breathing. The wind is light and the clouds are light. It is indeed extraordinary.

Just imagine, the world is bustling for profit, and the world is bustling for profit. As the saying goes, cutting off people's wealth is like killing parents.

All parties compete with each other, and do not hesitate to fight each other, fighting for a "little profit" that will live to the death. In front of King Ji, it is so small that it is not worth mentioning!

600 million in a month, 72 billion in a year, and 72 billion in ten years.

Why do the Di people need to rebel?

In this world, if you don’t return to King Ji, where can you go?

Thinking of this, everyone sighed. Then they calmed down again and heard King Ji ask the scholar Qiu Jing about digging a mountain and opening the road.

Qiu Jing replied, "Mr. Li traveled all over the world and disappeared. However, he had followed him to dig a mountain and open a road, but I have heard of it a little. Gongcao Li Hao, the subordinates Qiu Shen, and Li Jin were all in the county."

Liu Bei was overjoyed: "Come and meet quickly."

"Here!"

Soon, the former master Cao Li Hao, the subordinates Qiu Shen and Li Jin all rushed to the capital.

When they heard that Liu Bei was going to dig a mountain and open the road and open the water and pier. The three of them were overjoyed. So Chen Liangce came to Chen Liangce, and Liu Bei couldn't stop nodding.

The mountains and rivers in the county are all in the hearts of three people. They are indeed good officials.

I heard from the three of them that the flood in Wudu was caused by the major earthquake in the former Han Dynasty.

At the beginning of the second year of the Luhou of the Han Dynasty (186 BC), the Wudu earthquake was severely quake. The mountains collapsed and the ground was broken, and the eyes were devastated. The earthquake was intermittent from the beginning of the year, and it shook for eight months. The earthquake struck Wudu beyond recognition and even shook the ancient Han River into two waterways, the Western Han River (Jialing Water) and the New Han River.

At the intersection of Qin and Han dynasties, the water traffic that was connected to the entire line of "building a plank road openly and spreading a secretly to Chencang" was cut off in half. The Han River, which had lost the Western Han River, had shortened the river channel and reduced the water volume, and the boat was not as convenient as before. Because of this, when Prime Minister Zhuge made a northern expedition, not only the Han River and Jialing Waterway were unavailable. Moreover, the ancient large lake "Tianchi Daze" in Hanzhong also disappeared. The mountain was blocked and the river channel was blocked, and the Han army could only use wooden ox to flow horses to walk hard among the rugged mountain roads and transport food and fodder. The Prime Minister retreated several times due to insufficient food and grass.

Previously, Liu Bei didn't know why the Prime Minister was so persistent and went out to Qishan six times.

When I arrived in Wudu in person, I realized that the Han River was completely unrecognizable and could not help shipping. How difficult is the transportation of food and grass?

Liu Bei prepared for the future, digging mountains and clearing the roads, and dredging the rivers, and returning the benefits of the canal transportation. I hope that Prime Minister Zhuge no longer needs to use it.

There are talents, money and labor. Liu Bei also ordered people to send enough equipment and tools, which can be said to be ready.

It is not advisable to delay. Yan Zhong, the governor of Liangzhou, appointed Li Hao as the new prefect of Wudu, Qiu Shen as the chief, and Li Jin as the chief. He was fully responsible for building roads and rivers. He first built a county in Wudu. Then he hired north and south, traveled east and west, and connected the counties.

As for Tongqu pier, the shogunate western officials were responsible for it. There was no need for three people to intervene.

He also appointed Yang Pu and Yang Teng as the commander commander, responsible for managing the Di people in various departments.
