Liu Song Hanque

Chapter 440 Great Fusion

As the core city of the Yinshan defense line, Yunzhong also decided to set up a ranch here and set up a defense line to prevent the invasion of scattered small tribes in the north and the Northern Wei Dynasty.

As for the guard in the cloud...

After careful consideration, Liu Yizhen chose Xiao Chengzhi.

The reason why Xiao Chengzhi was transferred from Shu before was because his prestige in Shu was too high, not because of his lack of ability.

But Xiao Chengzhi is still a foreign relative after all, and his qualifications are enough, so he can use it easily, and he doesn't have his foundation in Yunzhong, so it is most suitable to put him in Yunzhong.

Besides Xiao Chengzhi, Liu Yizhen also left Zhu Xiuzhi in Yunzhong.

Famous generals also need experience, and it's not a problem to stay by your side all the time.

Moreover, what made Zhu Xiuzhi famous in history was his loyalty to the emperor and his patriotism. Having him infect Xiao Chengzhi and the future Emperor Gao of the Southern Qi Dynasty on Liu Yizhen's behalf could solve a potential danger.

Military defense is actually very easy. After all, Yunzhong has its own natural defense system in the Yinshan Mountains. What is difficult is the management of people's livelihood in Yunzhong and even the entire Hetao.

Hetao has been in the hands of foreigners for more than [-] years. The Han people have almost disappeared in this land developed by their ancestors. They are all ruled by Huns and Xianbei. It is not easy to govern them.

"The people's livelihood in Hetao is dying, and only the people who move to Guanzhong, Hedong and even Hebei can enrich the prefectures and counties, so that the safety of Guanzhong can be completely protected."

Xie Hui's method is simple, crude and effective, that is, a large number of Han people moved to the inland area to farm in the Hetao. With the fertility of the Hetao, it is not a problem to feed 10,000+ households under intensive cultivation.

"This is a good policy!"

Xiao Chengzhi, who has experience in governing the people in Shu, also stood up to express his approval.

He didn't say anything before because he didn't know Liu Yizhen's attitude towards him privately mobilizing the Shu army. Now that Liu Yizhen intends to appoint him as the defender of the cloud, he also knows that Liu Yizhen has no intention of estrangement from him for the time being, so he is actively offering advice.

"If tens of thousands of households are moved to recuperate in Hetao, the northern border will be peaceful in a few years."

Why are you fighting bitterly?Isn't it just to give your people more living space?
The remoteness of Hetao is a bit remote, and there is also the danger of facing the enemy directly, but the land is at least considered fertile.And the fertile land can basically overcome all negative buffs.

When Xiao Chengzhi was in Shu, he also went to Ningzhou in the south. Thanks to the unremitting efforts of the Han people, the salt ponds, copper mines, and rice fields there were well developed, and they were not at all like the "barren state" of Zhuge Liang's southern expedition during the Three Kingdoms period. place" look.

As long as the Han people are given a piece of land that can grow food, the Han people will be able to live strong on this land. This kind of tenacious style makes Xiao Chengzhi not worry about the future development of Hetao at all.

But Liu Yizhen fell into deep thought.

After a long time.

Only then did he ask his own question: "What about the Xiongnu and Xianbei living in Hetao?"

The crowd was speechless for a while.

That is basically consumed as consumables, anyway, Hu Xia did the same to the Han people.

Liu Yizhen shook his head slightly.

It's not that he suddenly had a heart attack, and wanted to confess those Huns and Xianbei, and use "love and justice" to influence them.

But Liu Song is about to usher in a great unification that has not been seen in a century, and some things have to be faced sooner or later.

From ancient times to the present, the first unified dynasty that ended the troubled times did not end well.

It is true that there is a problem with the ruling class, but we cannot blame Hu Hai, Zhao Gao, and Yang Guang entirely.

When Qin Shihuang unified the six countries, although the implementation of "cars on the same track, books on the same text", the hundreds of years of grievances and cultures since the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods are not so easy to dissipate. The Kanto countries still call themselves "Zhaoren", "Wei people", "Chu people" and so on.

Later, there were more internal problems in the Sui Dynasty. First of all, the Northern Zhou Dynasty, the predecessor of the Sui Dynasty, was a Xianbei Sinicized regime at all, and there were too many internal contradictions.What's more, the Southern Chen Dynasty was destroyed, and the arrogant and lustful people in the south who claimed to be "Chinese orthodox" joined the empire, which directly caused the Sui Dynasty, which was in great prosperity for a while, to become a bomb of internal and external troubles.

Later, the reason why Liu Bang and Li Yuan were able to sit firmly in the world after another great turmoil was entirely because of the disintegration of these conflicting races under the division of the war. "Han people" and "Tang people", the people's hearts should be tidied first, so that the team can become easy to lead.

Back to Liu Song.

Leaving aside the issues of aristocratic families and poor families, central and local issues, a single ethnic or even regional issue is enough for this new empire to drink a pot.

Did the Han people who followed Liu Yizhen move the capital to Guanzhong really have the same heart as the Guanzhong Han people?

The north and the south have been separated for a hundred years, and the two sides can still maintain the same views on some things?
Not to mention that there are Han people, Huns, and Xianbei people...

Not to mention the Huns, but Tuoba Tao still has 200 million Xianbei people in his hands.

Could it be that Liu Yizhen wanted to kill all these 200 million people after defeating the Northern Wei Dynasty?
Even if Liu Yizhen felt that his family had become cold-blooded enough to be the Queen of God, this terrifying number still made his heart tremble.

Therefore, unification is actually not the current top priority.

What Liu Yizhen really wants to do is a great integration.

Be it the Xiongnu or the Xianbei, they have all been deeply influenced by the Han civilization and are natural targets for wooing.

They are not Anglo-Saxons or black uncles who are very different from the Han civilization. The Han people are not hostile to them, but potential allies.

If possible, Liu Yi really wants these tribes and ethnic groups in the north to no longer call himself "Han people" or "Southern people", but let them call out "We are all Song people".

This stuff is hard.

But not without a solution.

Later generations of Li and Tang Dynasty gave a good template——

First use violence to kill you, and then use culture to make you call daddy.

Compared with this simple but durable method, the expansion methods of John Bull and Eagle Sauce in later generations are so low-level that it is outrageous...

If it weren't for the collapse of the Fubing system, this dynasty, which was born with fusion attributes, might have created a unique myth in human history.

Now, Liu Yizhen just wants to use this method to take up this burden, to test how far he can go, and at the same time, to solve the predicament in front of him.

"To deal with this matter, we should take a long-term plan."

Liu Yizhen decided to postpone this matter. After all, he couldn't complete this matter by himself, and he had to rely on many forces in the northern part of the Liu Song Empire.

The entire Hetao is still under military control for the time being, and this place will become a testing ground for Liu Yizhen's ambitions.

Just when Liu Yizhen was thinking about how to take this road, a piece of news from Hebei made his heart sink.

"Your Majesty, General Zhao Lunzhi... died of illness during the march!"
