Chapter 600: Turning a Dog into a Human
Standing on top of the court, Xia Hongsheng couldn't remember how long it had been since he had been to the court too early.
The courtiers were arguing about what to do with the Turkic captives, tens of thousands were not a small number, and what to do with them was a big deal.
"Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that the Son of Heaven is to all things, and the heavens and the earth are covered, and those who belong to me will be raised. Now that the Turks are broken and the remnants are attached, if Your Majesty does not have mercy and abandons it, it is not the way of heaven and earth, and it is not the intention of blocking the four empires. It is impossible to be foolish, and it is appropriate to deal with Henan. The so-called death and life, death and survival, with my kindness, there will be no rebellion in the end. Wen Yanbo walked out and bowed to Li Shimin.
After listening to Wen Yanbo's words, Xia Hongsheng pursed his lips, and this time he heard it again, and asked Li Shimin to settle those Turkic prisoners of war as if they were ordinary people.
"Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that Beidi has been a plague for China since ancient times, and now it is fortunate to break it, and it is advisable to know that between Yan and Henan in Henan, divide its species, scatter in the prefectures and counties, and teach the cultivation and weaving, which can turn Hulu into a farmer and empty the land of the north forever." Someone else also stood up and said. Xia Hongsheng still pouted after hearing this, isn't this still of no benefit to Datang at all? And to those Turks who scattered all over the place to be peasants, taught them to cultivate and weave? The Turks are a group of white-eyed wolves, just by teaching them to cultivate and weave, can they not have two hearts? Joke.
"Your Majesty!" At this time, another person stood up: "Minister Li Baiyao Qi: Although the Turks are one country, they are different in type, and each has its own chieftain. Now it is advisable to be discrete because of its dispersion, and each is deployed as the ruler and not as a subordinate,...... The national division is weak and easy to control, and the powerful enemy is difficult to swallow each other, and each of them will not be able to resist China. Please still set up the capital in Dingxiang, for its moderation, this long-term strategy of the border. ”
Fart, just give up! What Li Baiyao means is that although the Turks are a country, there are many tribes in it, and each tribe has its own commander. You can put all those tribes back and let them go their own way and not submit to each other, so that the Turks will become many small countries, each fighting for its own protection, and it will no longer be able to unite against the Tang Dynasty. I still want to create a Warring States era in the desert!
If this method had been done before the destruction of the Turks, it would have been a good one. But now that the Turks have been wiped out, put the captured people back and let them make a Warring States era, won't this battle be fought in vain? When the time comes, they will naturally unite again!
"Ridiculous!" A shout suddenly appeared in the court, Xia Hongsheng's eyes lit up, and there was finally someone who could understand! When he raised his eyes, he saw Wei Zheng hurrying out of the ranks, bowed and saluted, and said: "Since ancient times, the Xiongnu have not been as dilapidated as Si, this is the heavens to exterminate it, and the temple is a martial artist." And its Shikou China, ten thousand surnames are wronged, His Majesty takes it as a surrender, and cannot be destroyed, that is, it is advisable to send Hebei to live in its old land. The Huns have a beast's heart, not my race, the strong will be robbers, and the weak will be humble, regardless of kindness and righteousness, and their nature is also. If the Qin and Han Dynasty are afflicted, they will be attacked at the time and take Henan as a county. Your Majesty lives in the interior, and now there are several to 100,000 people, a few years later, the nourishment is too doubled, living in my elbows and armpits, Fu Wangji, the disease of the henchmen, will be a trouble, especially not punished in Henan! ”
You can say that again! Xia Hongsheng wanted to give Wei Zheng a thumbs up. Yes, although the disposal methods of the previous people are different, they are all gentle strategies, and after all, they are all tiger breeding. It's like injuring a tiger, and then Huairou treats its injuries, thinking that this tiger will be able to surrender to him in peace. But I didn't know that when the tiger was healed, it was going to bite back.
"Lord Wei's words are wrong!" Wen Yanbo listened to Wei Zheng's words, shook his head again and again, and retorted: "When you hear the way of a sage, you know everything. The remnants of the Turkic souls, with their lives returned to me, took in the interior, taught etiquette, elected their chiefs, sent the guards, feared the prestige and Huaide, what is the trouble? And Guangwu lived in Henan Shan Yu Nei County, thinking that Han Fanhan, the last generation, did not rebel. He also said: "Emperor Wen of Sui worked soldiers and horses, spent warehouses, set up a khan, ordered the restoration of his country, and then lost his trust and besieged Emperor Yang in Yanmen." Now His Majesty is benevolent, from what he wants, Henan, Hebei, live at will, each has a chieftain, not subordinate to each other, the force is scattered, and the security can be harmful? ”
Xia Hongsheng frowned, it seems that in history, Li Lao Er adopted Wen Yanbo's method, did not discriminate against those who returned, preserved his tribe, obeyed his customs, and taught him rituals. What happened later? Didn't something happen again when Gaozong was in trouble?
Sure enough, I saw Li Shimin think for a while, nodded and said: "Wen Qing's words are not unreasonable, I have an army of 100,000 to conquer the Turks, and the power of heaven has been applied. ”
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty, please think again! Wei Zheng heard Li Shimin say this, and hurriedly shouted: "When there was Wei in the Jin Dynasty, the Hu tribe lived in the near county, and Jiang Tong persuaded him to expel him. The previous generation overturned the car, and Yin Jian was not far away. Your Majesty will use Yan Boyan to send to Henan, the so-called beast raising is self-inflicted, Your Majesty! ”
"Then what did Wei Qing say to deal with?" Li Shimin asked rhetorically.
"Send all the remnants of the Turks out of Hebei, and don't let them stay in the interior." Wei Zheng replied.
"If you send out Hebei, can you prevent it from reuniting its tribes and suffering again?" Li Shimin asked rhetorically.
The courtiers all saw at this time that Li Shimin was biased towards Wen Yanbo's gentle methods.
So at that moment, several people came out to agree with Wen Yanbo and a few people's gentle approach. There is only one person who agrees with Wei Zheng's point of view. Xia Hongsheng, who was watching, shook his head and sighed.
Li Shimin raised his hand, signaled the people who were arguing to be quiet, and then said, "Xia Qing, I see that you shake your head and sigh, but do you have other opinions?" ”
Xia Hongsheng didn't expect that he was hiding behind the pillar and was also seen by Li Laoer, and the eyes of the people in the court immediately looked over, Xia Hongsheng raised his head and met Wei Zheng's eyes, and saw Wei Zheng looking at him with a bright look in his eyes, he must have thought that Xia Hongsheng thought the same as him. And the emperor's trust in Xia Hongsheng and the adoption of his suggestions are obvious to the entire court.
So everyone stared at Xia Hongsheng, wanting to hear what Xia Hongsheng would say.
Xia Hongsheng thought about it, organized the language in his heart, bowed and saluted, and said, "Your Majesty, Weichen wants to ask a question first." In the past few days, a mad dog has come out of nowhere outside Weichen's house, and it has bitten several people in Weichen's house. I would like to ask you, what should I do? ”
Before Xia Hongsheng's words fell, he heard a silent Cheng Yanjin suddenly laugh a few times, and shouted: "Wowhaha, the little poster is the little offspring, what's so difficult, when I retreat from the court, I will go to kill it with a stick with my own hands!" ”
"Uncle Cheng, good way." Xia Hongsheng said with a smile.
Li Shimin's face sank: "Xia Qing means that I can't kill all those Turkic captives?" ”
Immediately, Xia Hongsheng was immediately attacked by the courtiers.
"Rest your anger, rest your anger!" Xia Hongsheng waved his hand: "Although the dog bites, it is so good to kill, and it is pitiful." Hehe, Weichen has some small means, which can not only kill the dog, but also make the dog honest from now on, not only no longer biting, but guarding the door for Weichen. ”
"Oh?" Li Shimin's eyes squinted: "Speak quickly!" ”
"Just cast a spell and teach the dog to become a human." Xia Hongsheng stroked his palms and smiled: "Dogs have become humans, so naturally they won't bite anymore." (To be continued.) )
