The elite did not migrate south

Chapter 778: Fatal Disbanding Master
Before Cao Mao could wait for these desperate soldiers, he waited for Yang Hu's memorial.

Yang Hu put forward a series of opinions on the incident of Japanese pirates.

Cao Mao hardly went out these days, and mostly stayed in the mansion to read Yang Hu's memorial.

The more Cao Mao looked at it, the more surprised he was. This guy really had something.

Yang Hu's memorial almost resolved many of Cao Mao's concerns about the Wa Islands.

Yang Hu believed that a multi-level governance approach should be adopted for the Wa Islands.

Yang Hu's multi-level governance approach immediately relieved Cao Mao's confusion and made the situation clear.

This method is very simple to explain, that is, multiple systems in parallel.

Yang Hu believed that the Japanese islands could not be viewed as a whole, as there was a sea between them and they had not had much communication before.

From today's perspective, the Japanese island countries are still different from the Xianbei and Goguryeo.

This difference refers to the exchanges between the two sides. Take the Goguryeo people for example. They had a long record of submission and tribute to the Central Plains. They had frequent exchanges with each other, and the nobles had to learn the culture of the Central Plains and draw on the policies of the Central Plains.

As for the Xianbei, the degree of sinicization of the Xianbei nobles was even higher. For example, there was almost no difference between the two sides, such as the Duan family.

The Tuoba tribe had relatively few exchanges with the Central Plains, but this did not prevent the two sides from having trade exchanges for many years, and they knew each other well. As for the Wa Islands, even their king needed an interpreter to communicate.

The lower classes knew nothing about the Great Wei, and had no idea who this person was or where he came from.

The same is true for the lower classes of the Wei Dynasty. Many places may not have even heard of them, but if you say that they have never heard of the Xianbei and Goguryeo, that is unlikely.

The biggest problem is that the two sides are separated by the sea.

Cao Wei had no way to manage them directly. It was wishful thinking to carry out immigration activities under the current situation, let alone educate them.

It's not easy for them to migrate.
Various conditions are not ripe.

In the current situation, the only solution Yang Hu could think of was hierarchical governance.

After receiving the local report from Wen Yang, Yang Hu came up with a plan. He believed that counties should be established in Yizhiguo, Tsushimaguo, Weiluguo, Nuguo, and the northern part of Yamatai, which were rich in resources, had flat terrain, and were suitable for farming.

These countries were divided into counties, officials were sent there, and people were constantly relocated to disrupt their deployment.

However, the feudal system was implemented in the southern part of Yamatai, the Kingdom of Gou Nu, the Kingdom of Touma and other places.

The Gou Nu Kingdom can continue to retain its king, change the name of the Touma Kingdom, appoint a member of the royal family to serve as a vassal king, and appoint a prime minister to govern the local area. The level of care does not need to be as meticulous as that of the counties directly under its jurisdiction.

As for the barbarian areas in the east, we can set up a Chief Secretary's Office and send a general to lead the many barbarians in the east, just like we did with the countries in the Western Regions.

The people in the counties and prefectures became the people of the Great Wei, and the Dog Slave State and the Imperial Clan State coexisted, followed by the barbarian groups in the east.

So it is divided into four parts.
After reading Yang Hu's memorial, Cao Mao thought it was very exquisite!

This is to create four forces on the island. Even if there is a problem in the Central Plains in the future, they will not be able to unite again. It will directly become a melee among the four forces, and the most fertile areas will still be directly managed.

Cao Mao thought this was feasible.

When enfeoffing a royal family member in Japan, one must pay close attention to the selection of the right person.

The main reason is that this place is too remote and too backward. This doesn't feel like a reward, it feels like exile.

It seems that we have to find those royal family members who are not qualified to inherit the throne, or even whose lives are not very satisfactory. These people are probably willing to go to the local area.

Cao Mao felt that the handling of the Wa Island could be handed over to Yang Hu.

Historically, after Zhong Hui's death, three people inherited his career: Yang Hu, Du Yu, and Pei Xiu.

Now that Zhong Hui is still alive, he suppresses these three people. Although they are not younger than Zhong Hui, Zhong Hui debuted too early.

We also need to give them more opportunities to hone their talents.

Among them, Du Yu actually grew the fastest. Apart from anything else, the fact that he was able to complete the work-for-relief program alone was already terrifying enough.

If he continues to grow like this, Zhong Hui will have competitors in the future.

The growth trajectory of Du Yu and others is normal, but Zhong Hui is an exception.

Cao Mao immediately wrote back to Yang Hu, entrusting him with the important task. Of course, Cao Mao still had to think about the affairs of the princes himself.

During this period of time, Cao Mao was waiting for those scattered soldiers to come to Luoyang.

He himself had a lot of fun playing with his two sons.

Cao Wen lived up to his name.

The older you get, the gentler your personality becomes.

He is a relatively introverted boy and doesn't yell like other boys. He likes to sit quietly next to his parents and play with his toys by himself.

Cao Mao was not worried about the prince's situation. It was not a big problem to be gentler and more tolerant.

I will not leave what I should do to the prince. My series of policies are all drastic measures. If the heir continues to be so tough, it will be easy for something to go wrong. It won't hurt to be gentle.

As for the second son Liang, although he was still in swaddling clothes, he was extremely noisy.

The crying was very loud.

Everyone commented that he would have a bright future, and since he had a loud cry, he would definitely not be too bad.

Cao Mao couldn't say which son he liked more. He liked both of them. Although the eldest son looked more like himself and the second son looked more like his mother, Cao Mao was not partial to them.

The Queen had repeatedly urged Cao Mao to be stricter with the Crown Prince. After all, he was the heir, and he should not be spoiled too much, but should be treated with dignity.

But Cao Mao disagreed. Could a qualified successor be trained just by intimidation and severity?

If the current teaching method is effective, the theory of family evolution would not be so obvious!

Just look at the heirs of those great families; this is the best proof.

Cao Mao waited for a while, and finally, these scattered soldiers successfully arrived in Luoyang.

Cao Mao first decided to meet with the King of Dongping.

Prince Cao Xi of Dongping sat in the carriage, looking at the situation around him, marveling at it.

He hasn't been to Luoyang for a long time.

This time, the experience was extraordinary.

Da Wei is really different from the State of Wei.

The road along this route is exceptionally flat. The previously abandoned and overgrown land has been transformed into endless farmland, stretching as far as the eye can see. Merchants' caravans can be seen everywhere, and the tall city walls in the distance appear as shadows in the sunlight.

The biggest difference comes not from the farmland and buildings, but from the people you see along the way.

The people who used to be dressed in rags, begging on the road with empty eyes and numb faces, now looked a little different.

Their clothes were still not much better, their stomachs were sunken, and there was not much flesh on their cheeks. However, compared to their lifeless appearance in the past, they were now willing to speak and laugh, and some would even do business with the soldiers in charge of escorting them, selling them some fruits and vegetables grown by themselves.

Cao Xi couldn't help but sigh, he is indeed worthy of being our Holy King.

As an eyewitness to the Cao Pi era, Cao Xi was very grateful to Cao Mao.

His uncle was really harsh towards his fellow tribesmen.

Cao Xi's father was not a good person at first. When he was the King of Shouzhang, he led his troops to beat up local officials.

Relying on his status, he completely ignored local officials.

Then he was fucked.

From then on, his father was very honest and remained honest until his death.

After inheriting the position, Cao Xi's life was not very good either.

Anyone can control him, and no one treats him well. He lives in fear all day long, is subject to various supervisions, and suffers all kinds of humiliation. The clan system makes their life worse than death.

It was not until the Sima family came to power that things targeting them finally became less frequent.

It was because of the benevolent policies of the previous few people that Cao Mao enjoyed an extremely high status in the eyes of the royal family.

Just like this time's title reform, the royal family was the first to jump out in support, for no other reason than to do it for the saint!

Cao Xi didn't know why the emperor suddenly summoned him. He had no contact with Cao Mao. They had only exchanged greetings through letters, and they had no personal relationship.

However, Cao Mao had also summoned other princes before, and every prince who came would receive some rewards.

Therefore, Cao Xi was quite looking forward to this meeting.

When he arrived in Luoyang, Guo Ping came to greet him.

Cao Xi certainly knew that this was the emperor's adopted son. Even though he was the other party's elder, he was not too arrogant. He returned the greeting very kindly and then went to the West Hall with him.

Of course, when meeting members of the royal family, one must meet them in the West Hall.

"Hahaha, it's the adults in the family who are here."

Cao Mao stood up with a smile.

Cao Xi, however, paid him a respectful visit.

"Your Majesty, I, the Prince of Dongping, Cao Xi, pay my respects to you!!!"

Cao Mao helped him up and said with a smile, "Why are you so polite, sir? There are no outsiders here, we are all family members."

Cao Xi just smiled. No matter how kind Cao Mao's attitude was, they would never dare to take advantage of him.

This is the achievement of Cao Pi.

From this perspective, this much-criticized emperor actually made a lot of contributions.

Look how obedient the royal family members are now.

Cao Mao cordially pulled the elder to sit next to him, and then asked about his family situation. As they talked, Cao Xi was finally no longer as restrained and uneasy as before.

The two chatted happily. Cao Xi talked about his family situation with a smile. When Cao Mao led the topic to hobbies, Cao Xi finally talked about alchemy.

Cao Xi was a medical scientist.

He had great attainments in medicine. People in the past often looked down on knowledge other than classics, but today's celebrities do not discriminate against them.

"Cao's Moxibustion Classic" and "Cao's Twelve Meridians Mingtang Yance Figure" are the achievements of Cao Xi.

Cao Xi himself was also a famous medical expert in history, and he and Huangfu Mi were good partners.

Refining pills was his favorite thing to do, including various types of Five Stone Powders.

However, to be fair, the main purpose of his refining these powders was to heal.
