I became the son of Renzong

Chapter 155 Killing is not the only way
In the year of Qingli, Fan Zhongyan proposed to build military equipment, which was to restore the recruitment system, aiming at reducing the expenditure on supplies.

In the same way, the income of generals of all levels and categories, large and small, has been reduced...there is no basis for exploitation.

Don't talk about civil and military disputes, no one can stand alone in the court, with hard feet and deep military background, no one has a few close people from the family of civil servants.

Therefore, Xiuwubei of the Qingli New Deal was abolished just like that.

Give up and get, get and give up, the order is very important.Just like now, after Zhao Xi divided the cake, it was self-evident what he would say and do next, and what kind of support he would get.

At this time, Zhao Xifang laid out the documents that he got from going deep into the enemy's rear this time without any risk...

"Annan covets the land of Guangnan in the kingdom, Jiuyi..."

"In the seventh year of Dazhong Xiangfu, the Annan navy invaded Ruhongzhai River Estuary. In December of the same year, they invaded Ruhongzhai again, looting people and animals."

"In the sixth year of Tiansheng, in the name of visiting relatives, members of the Li clan entered the province to plunder people and livestock. After negotiating with the transfer office, they refused to release the people..."

Yu Jing did some work on these old things when he took office as Guangnan pacifier.He also pondered the reasons for the Nong Bandit Rebellion, including the reasons why the cities in Guangnan were successively captured this year.

This time, the bottom line is that it will never be a simple rebellion by bandits. Without Annan's backing, without Annan's military support, the Nong people would never be so brave and good at fighting.

This was the first time Zhao Xi had heard of this.

He wondered, since Annan had been relentless and harassed him for so many years, what did the imperial guards on Guangnan West Road do?What did the officials of Guangnan West Road do?
It can actually make people go down to Kyushu!

If I knew this earlier, would I still need to go to Guangyuan Prefecture to make a fuss?

According to the information Zhao Xi got from Zhao Zhan, he is ready to greet Annan.The reason for running thousands of miles is to have a plausible excuse, to give the court and these civil servants an excuse.

It turns out that there have always been excuses!It's just that nobody mentioned it!

Zhao Xi wanted to get angry very much, and then looked at everyone present...all quite angry.Well, Zhao Xi could only think that these people were irritated by the stories Yu Jing told, rather than worrying about the income from the manganese mine.

If they want a piece of the pie in the future, and want to get some income from the cornucopia of manganese mines, the stability of Guangnan West Road has become a top priority.

Soon, a unified opinion was reached in the Yamen of the appeasement envoys in the entire Guangnan... The soldiers sent out to Guangyuan, and the sword pointed at Annan!

In other words, when working in Guangnan, there is a big difference between Guangnan West Road and Guangnan East Road.

The development of the shipping industry has made the entire Guangnan East Road prosperous. From Mingzhou, Quanzhou, Hangzhou, to the commercial city of Guangzhou, the entire Guangnan East Road is thriving everywhere.

And Guangnan West Road... except for the miasma, it is barbarians.This time, with this manganese mine... So, the whole appeasement made the yamen move, even more energetic than the decisive battle at Guirenpu.

This time, there is no need to stay at night and day, and just set off in such a mighty way, and tell Nong Zhigao very clearly... Don't think that it's just a matter of staying in the old nest!
With [-] Western troops and [-] new recruits, together with all kinds of hard-working civilians, it is directly called a [-] army.

Zhao Xi was a little uncomfortable with this kind of title, thinking about how powerful it really is, so he didn't worry about it.At the beginning, Nong Zhigao was also known as an army of one hundred thousand...

Zhao Xi and the others had once explored the camp, which was almost equivalent to doing a route reconnaissance. On the return trip, they searched everywhere for careful raids. They were familiar with the route from Mingying Prefecture to Guangyuan.

The Baishili road should have been smooth, but the whole march was in constant state.

First, there were soldiers who suffered from vomiting and diarrhea due to drinking unboiled water, but they did not attract attention.

There are health regulations for the army, and Zhao Xi supplemented them before arriving in Guangnan.No one really cares about the disease caused by the living habits of individual people.

When all kinds of accidents appeared next, Zhao Xi was alerted.

During the march of the entire army, the guard battalion did not assume the task of guarding the entire team, they were only responsible for His Royal Highness.

Even Zhao Xi rarely came to the camp. He gave Di Qing absolute autonomy, and he ran around a lot, worrying that Di Qing was too busy.

However, every day Di Qing would send an explanation of the situation, including Yu Jing's appeasement envoy, who would also give Zhao Xi some information.

Being trapped in a pit, bitten by a poisonous snake, bitten by a mosquito, and even entangled to death by trees and vines...

Zhao Xi felt more and more that something was wrong.

It's not that there are no mosquitoes in Guangnan in winter, nor is it that mothballs can eliminate all mosquito bites, but the number of people who die every day increases as they get closer to Guangyuan.

What's more, the bamboo knot nailed to death by the bamboo knot in the trap is actually still a new stubble.

"How much damage?"

"The first three days were not many, but in the past two days there have been more than [-] people, all because of an accident at night. Di Shuai also has suspicions..."

Hearing what Cao Lin said, Zhao Xi paused.

"The guard battalion is pretending to be on alert tonight!"

I don't know what benefits this Nong Zhigao brought to their tribe, let alone how Yongzhou oppressed these barbarians.

As a result of the vigilance at night, one by one Nong people were brought back.

It's okay to play some shady tricks, but if you are really discovered, just the shuttle mark and leather armor are really not the opponents of the formed army.

In one night, five or 60 people were picked up.

"It was not dispatched by Guangyuan Prefecture, but by the surrounding mountain people spontaneously..."

In the commander's tent, the civil and military gathered again, which is rare in the march.The meaning is obvious, it is to negotiate a constitution for these mountain people.

"Kill the past!"

Don't think that literati are only sages and kings, and they also have cruel times.

Before the military commander could say anything, the civil servant shouted and killed him.

"Manganese mines require labor..."

Where there is oppression, there is resistance.Zhao Xi understands this, maybe he doesn't realize it now.However, once the manganese ore is mined, it does require labor.

Zhao Xi was right.

"Bachelor, Jimi Prefecture is also a citizen of the country. I have lived in the mountains for a long time, have not been educated, and have been deceived by the bandits. I can forgive this improper behavior."

"I hereby implore the bachelors and all of you, even if you work in the manganese mine, don't bully them too much. For the long-term plan, apply the kingly way, and it will be beneficial to Guangnan's long-term stability."

Don't talk about national unity, just talk about interests.Miners are not destined to be a good livelihood, and it is definitely better to enslave the Nong people than to enslave their compatriots.

Similarly, if you want to be enslaved for a long time, you must make these people willing to a certain extent. To put it bluntly, you must make them feel that mining for the country is better than living in the mountains.

If the treatment of the miners is followed by Zhao Xi, I am afraid that it is possible for them to kill the Nong people instead.

Zhao Xi was worried that Guangnan officials would be overwhelmed by hatred and oppress them without restraint...

The so-called barbarians entering China are called Huaxia. Zhao Xi hopes that the Nong people, as well as the mountain people in the entire mountain, will have a sense of belonging to the country.That way, it is even more effective than ten southern expeditions.
