The First Military Division of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 533
"Prime Minister, the Di clan wants to move inland and serve the emperor."

Being happy, Agui hurriedly asked Chen Ziming to move inland. The land in the Central Plains is fertile, the climate is suitable, and it is inside the Han Dynasty. As the Di people, of course they want to move inland like the Qiang people.

"It's not urgent."

Chen Ziming frowned, this is not easy to agree to them, the Di people are different from the Qiang people, the Qiang people live in the north, and the environment is much more difficult than the Di people, the most important thing is that the location of the Qiang people blocks the development of the Han Dynasty to the north, and is threatened by the northern grassland herdsmen .

Moreover, the Qiang people are good at fighting. In order to digest the strength of the Qiang people as soon as possible and completely eliminate the threat of the Qiang people, Chen Ziming had to move the Qiang people inward.

But the Di people are different. The Di people live in the west of the Han Dynasty, which is a vast world. It is impossible for the Han people to let such a large piece of land be uninhabited.

If the Di people move inland, then the current Di people's territory will be uninhabited. This is something Chen Ziming absolutely does not want to see, and the Di people are too scattered, and it will take a lot of money to gather the whole Di people.

As for the inward migration, the Dahan can still take in the more than 100 million Di people, but the problem is that moving the Di people inward is far more costly than the Qiang people who moved inward. What the Dahan needs now is stability and development, but unlimited consumption.

In fact, the most frustrating thing for Chen Ziming is that the population of the big Han is too small, so small that there is not too much population to move out. Now that the Qiang people have vacated the territory, there are not many Han people who have emigrated. of the Di family.

Chen Ziming's favorite method for the foreigners around the big man was sinicization. As long as they surrendered to the big man, they would be completely sinicized without leaving any future troubles.

The best method of Sinicization is to move the Han people inward and out, and the basis of this method is the Han people, but now the population of the Han people is insufficient, and they cannot digest the vast territory of the Di people. Chen Ziming is the most troublesome.

"Prime Minister..."

After hearing Chen Ziming's answer, Wan Qian, A Gui and the other leaders became anxious.

"Leaders, rest assured." Chen Ziming hurriedly reassured everyone, and assured the crowd: "Since the Di tribe surrendered to the Han, the emperor will not fail the Di tribe. .”

"And if the Di tribe joins the Han, the land of the Di tribe is the land of the Han. There should be loyal and brave people guarding it. If you move inward, who will guard the land of the Han?"

Seeing that the five leaders were still unwilling, Chen Ziming immediately said: "Don't worry, the emperor will treat you equally and give you and other Han people the same body as the Han people, and will send capable people to the land of the Di tribe to govern On the one hand, to improve the lives of the Di people."

"Give food and money to the people of the Di people, build roads, open up Sinology, and send a big Han tiger to guard the frontier to keep the people of the Di people safe."

Chen Ziming's words calmed down the five leaders. If it was true what Chen Ziming said, then the Di people would be treated well, especially the status of the Han people bestowed by the emperor of the Han Dynasty, which is what they value most.

"Thank you, Prime Minister!"

Under Chen Ziming's appeasement, Wan Qian and the others accepted Chen Ziming's arrangement temporarily. The Di people would not move inland, but they had to be granted the status of Han people.

As long as the big man does what Chen Ziming just promised, the five chiefs of the Di clan promise to obey the big man's command and serve the big man's emperor before leaving with peace of mind.

This matter has been preliminarily resolved. It is impossible for the Di people to move inland. At least the big Han does not have this ability now, but it is true to send troops to completely occupy, send officials to accept local government affairs, start school management, and build roads.

And it must be fully implemented. Only in this way can the Di people be fully integrated into the land of the Han Dynasty.

"The population is too small..."

Chen Ziming was also very helpless, the Han expanded too fast, the population could not keep up, the Qiang still had a large area of ​​land that no one occupied, and now the Di, which had a larger territory than the Qiang, made Chen Ziming powerless.

Even Qinghai and Gansu in later generations are rare large provinces, with a truly vast land and few people, not to mention the current Di tribe, which is uninhabited for hundreds of miles. I am afraid that this is the situation of the Di tribe now.

After Chen Ziming finished dealing with the matter of the Di tribe, Guan Yu, who had been silent on the side, said: "Ziming, I have a little understanding of the affairs of the Di tribe. This is a barren land. Rare, since he is willing to serve the great man, I have no objection to his joining the great man, but there is no need to send soldiers and horses to guard."

Regarding foreign policy, as a general and Liu Bei's second younger brother, Guan Yu knows a lot about it. For a big family like the Di clan, the qualifications collected by the dark guards hardly keep any secrets from Guan Yu.Moreover, Liu Bei and Chen Ziming wanted to subdue the Di clan, and Guan Yu also knew it.

But Guan Yu didn't understand why the Di tribe was occupied in such a sparsely populated and barren land, and according to Chen Ziming's intention, the big man had to invest countless money in the Di tribe. Big burden.

"Hehe." Chen Ziming said with a smile: "Third brother doesn't know something. Although the Di people are foreign, their ancestors are from Huaxia. The Di people and the Qiang people actually migrated away during the Zhou Dynasty. They have the same origin as me. , and now returning to the big man is justified."

Then Chen Ziming took a deep breath and said, "And if your Majesty wants to rule the world, he will definitely go out with all his strength to fight Cao Cao and Sun Quan to the death. At that time, I don't know how many casualties the big man will have. Suppression, once the power of the big man weakens, the surrounding alien races will swarm in like hungry wolves, if so, the big man will be in danger."

In history, the famous Five Husbands and China almost destroyed the Han people. In such a dark age, Chen Ziming is absolutely not allowed to appear. This is why Chen Ziming would rather give up the rule of the big Han for the time being, but also the reason for attacking the surrounding alien races first.

"They dare!" Guan Yu's face was full of murderous intent when he heard this.

"Why don't you dare?" Chen Ziming said with a serious face: "Don't underestimate the foreign races around the big man. If the big man is strong, they will worship one after another and be willing to be courtiers. If the big man is weak, he will ignore the power of heaven, treat the people of the big man like livestock, and treat the big man The land is the granary, and the soldiers plunder it, and the people are devastated."

Chen Ziming's words silenced everyone. Is the danger of alien races really so great?But no one objected. Since Chen Ziming started his career with Liu Bei, Chen Ziming's decision has not been missed.

"In this case, we should destroy it." Guan Yu narrowed his eyes, wanting to get rid of the hidden danger.

Chen Ziming glanced at Guan Yu speechlessly and said, "Once the Di tribe is gone, there will be no external troubles within a hundred years of the Han Dynasty."
