Chapter 784: Manipur

After Wang Ju left, Zhang Qi pacified Tengchong Mansion, but this pacification only refers to the east of the Kaijiang River, that is, the Enmei Kaijiang River, and only the lower part of Gaoligong Mountain, the west of Gaoligong Mountain, also because of factors such as terrain and environment, there are no soldiers, and Buxiandian (north side of Ruili) to the south also does not use troops.

It is not a small area, the sea is a little high, but it is not terrible high, there are many rivers, green mountains and clear waters, the local farmland is not developed, but the animal husbandry is very developed, so the war horses produced since ancient times are quite famous.

In fact, this area of control also exceeded the border of the Celestial Empire in later generations, but Wang Ju couldn't remember it clearly, even if he remembered, it didn't matter.

Zhang Ji's thoughts are similar to Wang Ju's, except for the battle of sniping Bagan's northward expansion, the rest can only be controlled by using troops, and if they can't be controlled, then appeased and restrained.

However, at that time, Zhang Ji received a huge amount of funding from Wang Ju, and Wang Ju solved most of the big troubles, and even many areas were changed to the stream, laying a good foundation for Zhang Ji.

Therefore, Zhang Qi invested some energy in this area, encouraged the people to raise all kinds of horses, and migrated some people to graze, and at the same time invited some merchants to give them some preferential policies, so that they could sell horses and other livestock here, or animal husbandry products, such as fur and tendons. At the same time, some roads were built to make it easier for people to travel between them.

In this way, the lives of the people in this area immediately improved.

But the situation is similar to that in Pu'an, or even worse, because there are naked people on the other side of the river, and the people are wearing only leaves or animal skin skirts, and the weather is hot. That's really not wearing any clothes.

In other words, it is similar to a primitive society.

But it can't be regarded as a primitive society. After all, Dali is compared to Zhuge Liang's seven captures of Meng Shu. Civilization is more developed.

Under the radiation of Dali's civilization, some of the leaders of these tribes began to civilize, and they also had a little contact with the people on this side of the river, including trading, all in the form of barter.

After Zhang Qi defeated the Bagan people, he successively reduced some troops, in fact, since Wang Ju took Dali, they have been reduced one after another. Dali was taken, it is impossible for the south to continue to raise so many native soldiers, the finance will be unbearable, and in order to conquer these two roads, many soldiers have also been sacrificed, and the west road of Guangnan has reached the time of rest and recuperation.

Therefore, under the successive reductions, there are only more than 40,000 native soldiers on Guangnan West Road, and there are 20,000 native soldiers, Yu Dali and Jiaozhi are in rotation, and Jiaozhi and Dali have also begun to recruit and train their own native soldiers. At the same time, Zhang Ji trained 5,000 cavalry here on the terrain of Tengchong Mansion. Half-herding and half-soldier.

Miao Lu used troops to attack the southwest, so he borrowed the 5,000 cavalry from the planter.

These 5,000 cavalry played an important role in this battle, but at the same time, the Tengchong Mansion was empty, and the fatal thing was that Wang Zhang and the others changed their land and returned to the stream, which made some barbarian chieftains dissatisfied. Don't ask the barbarian chieftains, with the terrain here, how to achieve complete land change? In fact, more than half of the area is still in bondage.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, these barbarian chieftains colluded with dozens of large tribes of the naked tribe to invade Tengchong Mansion. Although Yao Xiong and his soldiers arrived, many horses, livestock and civilians were looted.

However, at this time, the weather was getting hotter, and it was not suitable to use troops in the hot south, so the two of them endured it.

Then the two of them discussed a plan together, deliberately threatening that there would be chaos on the Southwest Yi side and transfer these thousands of cavalry. Not only the cavalry was transferred, but even some of the surrounding native infantry were also transferred.

These barbarian chiefs have some developed news channels, so here they are again.

As a result, seven or eight thousand warriors of the naked tribe fell into an ambush circle together, and they were either killed or captured.

Not only did these warriors of the naked clan, but also these barbarian chiefs also sent their warriors to secretly participate, just right, to be raped together.

It's not a huge battle, but it lasted a bit long, and the battle wasn't over until Tane Shixiong's recital was sent to the capital. At least these barbarian chieftains have openly betrayed and have to sweep them one by one, although they are not as powerful as the beggar brothers, and they do not have the appeal of the beggar brothers, but the terrain is too complicated, and it is impossible to end them in a short time.

But here comes a new problem.

That's what to do with these prisoners of war?

The farmer didn't dare to learn from Wang Ju and sell them into mining slaves together.

As for killing, they dare not kill, and if they are released, it will become a scourge again, so after everyone has discussed, let them build the road.

Suddenly, at this time, a local staff officer said, it is better to build a road to the Slav country, and the planter asked where the Slav country was, and the staff officer pointed to the place west of Mount Naga on the map.

The seed master asked again, isn't that Tianzhu?

The staff officer also said that Tianzhu is also divided into many countries.

In this way, Tane Shixiong can understand.

And it doesn't seem to be too far, starting from Tengchong Fufu City, it's only about a thousand miles away. If this trade route is opened up, so that Dali and Tianzhu can come and go, not to mention commerce, all aspects will have a positive impact, including religion and culture, etc., maybe it will be famous in the annals of history.

Not only that, but Zhang Kai also placed many mutual markets in Dali, such as Jiuzhi City, Sanzhi City, and Hetou City in the northwest, which were mainly traded with Tubo, Atou City and Manbu City in the northwest were mainly traded with Southwest Yi, and Moxie City, Mengxiang City, and Mengling City in the south were mainly traded with Jingyunman and Bagan people.

In fact, it belongs to the fetters of Dali, and it has to go south, and the three mutual markets in the south are only on both sides of the border of the later Celestial Empire, but further south, it is impossible to manage, and the terrain is more complicated! And it was here that the control of the Song Dynasty gradually began to decline, and eighty percent of it was a confined area. As for the city, it cannot be called a city, but a simple city wall was built to garrison troops or to protect the security of the city.

However, the role of these eight mutual markets is not trivial, not only can bring a large amount of taxes to the two roads of Yunnan every year, but also prosper the surrounding economy, expanding the influence and radiation of the Song Dynasty.

Therefore, in this environment, the proposal of the staff officer surnamed Ding made the planter quite ambitious, so he wrote a note. One is to ask the imperial court for money. This battle will not only make Tengchong Mansion more stable in the future. Even because most of the naked warriors in the west of the Kaijiang River were wiped out, the imperial court could open up to the west of the Kaijiang River, but in this way, it was impossible to pay for it only by relying on the finances of the West Yunnan Road, so it was necessary to ask for money......

In addition, it is whether this huge road construction plan can be carried out, and Tane Shixiong also drew a schematic map of the future road.

Actually. This Slav state is the Slav dynasty in the history of Tianzhu, but it is not an independent dynasty, and it is sincerely subordinate to the more powerful Portic dynasty.

When the Baltic Dynasty was at its strongest, it once included the entire north-central part of India, as well as Bangladesh and Pakistan, but when the Green Religion came, the Buddhist countries could not do anything with the Green Christians, and the Rashita people in the south began to become stronger, so the three parties launched a three-country melee in Qunucheng in the late Tang Dynasty. The Polo dynasty began to decline, although at the end of the Tang Dynasty. There was a slight revival of the center, but this trend of revival was soon interrupted by the Chola dynasty in the south.

The fleet on the other side. They also have trade contacts with this Chola Dynasty, and have a strong navy, and use this navy to constantly spread their sphere of influence to the entire southern and eastern coastlines of India, but how they expand has nothing to do with the other side, we are here to do business, not to grab territory with you.

Because they controlled the coastline, neither the people on the ships had heard of the Polo or Slavic dynasties.

Now the Buddhist state of the Bala Empire has only a little bit of its scope left, and has retreated inland, while its control over the Slavs has become weak. It may be a few decades later, and it will be completely wiped out by the green, leading to the complete decline of Buddhism in India and its replacement by Brahmanism and greenism.

These insiders don't know at all.

But even if he knew, he would not go to revitalize the Buddhist country.

However, he looked at the road diagram and was a little dazed, where did this lead? It seems to be the East China Manipur, which is known as India. He still remembers that in his previous life, this area seemed to be mostly yellow people, not dark brown people, so they mostly spoke the Sino-Tibetan language and maintained various traditional Chinese customs. This shows that there are many descendants of Chinese in that area. Could it be that someone has migrated there from now on?

Zhao Ji was quite moved.

Buddhism was about to fall at the end of Tianzhu, but it was the first religion in the Song Dynasty.

Therefore, everyone has a curious attitude towards Tianzhu, not only Zhao Xuan, but also Han Jin.

Wang Ju looked at their expressions and said, "Your Majesty, first of all, you have to issue an edict to let the Seed Master Dao stop any thoughts about the west of the Kaijiang River. ”

"Why?"

"Where is more backward and barbaric than the Southwest Yi, if it is restrained as before, it does not matter, but the management of semi-restraint (refers to the imperial court appointing officials, soldiers and errands to govern, but can not have real command rights over the villages, and the command power is still in the hands of the barbarian chiefs), has little effect, but the court will spend a lot of extra money every year. Only if the land is changed and returned to the stream, once the land is changed and returned to the stream, they have to use troops all the time, not to mention the cost of using soldiers, only the areas themselves, they are extremely backward and isolated, and if they want to govern, they must be developed, including building roads and water conservancy, building schools, distributing agricultural tools, and teaching them advanced planting methods. Therefore, Miao Shizhong and Miao Lu opened up the southwest Yi, and the minister allocated 5 million guan to be reserved for the people's livelihood in these areas. Zhang Zhifu operated Yunnan Road after the minister, and most of the Jingyunman areas west of the Kaijiang River were not operated. The terrain is too complicated, the people are too backward, and it is extremely expensive to want to operate. ”

Therefore, Wang Ju took an extremely cruel approach to Jiaozhi.

But now, despite everyone's opposition, where to get so many indigenous people, to clean this area.

Moreover, these areas are very isolated, even if they are cleansed, and there are no people who want to migrate.

"If after the destruction of the Western Xia, the imperial court is financially well-off, it can still be moderately operated, in fact, it is like that, it is better to run the southwest Yi country of China, anyway, it will use a lot of money to pile up."

The old country China was solved by Zhang Dan, and now a new country China has been created, and it is bigger, so this country China has made everyone more or less uncomfortable.

However, there is a sentence that Wang Ju did not say, that is, with a lot of money, at most this place can protect itself in the future, and I don't want to expect this area to create much wealth for the imperial court. Maybe a lot of money has been piled up, and the roads in various regions have been barely opened, there are some water conservancy, and there are also some schools, and the state still needs to take out money and silk to subsidize it every year.

Therefore, I have to admit Zhao Kuangyin's words, he used a jade axe to row on the Dadu River, and I don't want to go west, because I don't want to use the wealth of the Chinese people to subsidize these barbarians!

But if it really develops to that point, at least the people in this area have really benefited.

Don't say that the state comes to enslave, this is the same as the original Meishanman and later North Korea, the more closed and backward, the more difficult the people are.

"The country has great benefits, just like the two roads of Dali and Yunnan, after several years of governance, our dynasty will inevitably benefit. When Danchen first pioneered, he also took a fancy to their foundation. Then to the Western Xia, even if the imperial court got the Western Xia, it could not directly benefit, on the contrary, in the previous years, it also had to come up with a lot of money to govern and make the people stable. However, without the threat of Western Xia, our dynasty would not be attacked on both sides in the north, so there is a correct reason to run Western Xia. However, you can't open the edge in a vague way, in that case, you will make the mistake of Emperor Tang Ming. ”

Han Jin said: "What Zi'an said is extremely true. ”

"And what about this path?" Zhao asked.

"The local staff officer said that it is only a thousand miles away, and it seems that it is not far from Jingzhao Mansion to the capital, but in fact it cannot be only a thousand miles, of course, it will not be further than Jingzhao Mansion to the capital, mainly where there are many mountainous areas, there are many steep rivers and high mountains, and the trees are lush, Your Majesty can hardly imagine, because there are not so dense forests in the north at all. Tall trees, medium shrubs, dwarf grass thorns, and many areas have real miasma. ”

"A real miasma?"

"There are a lot of corruption in some areas, coupled with terrain and other factors, resulting in poisonous gases in the air, and there are many poisonous insects and giant mosquitoes, so the cost of building this road is unimaginable. Of course, if it can be repaired, it will also have many benefits, not to mention anything else, just talk about the Ancient Tea Horse Road, which is also rugged and difficult, with high mountains and snowfields, and many uninhabited areas, but it is precisely because of this ancient road that many people have been fed. Moreover, it can go straight to Tianzhu. ”

Saying this, Zhao Ji was a little dizzy.

"Your Majesty, you can issue an edict that the imperial court will allocate 10,000 stone gunpowder, as well as 1 million horses of silk, as well as 500,000 copper coins and 1 million pieces of silk, and give the road to the cultivation of the scriptures, and build it with these money, but you must not embezzle the taxes of Yunnan Road, otherwise the road will be repaired, and there will be a big riot on Yunnan Road. If it is insufficient, then reduce the amount of work and reduce the width of the road surface. ”

Just get through, don't take it seriously, build a luxurious avenue out.

This is also a more sensible approach.

Zhao Ji was also approved.

Wang Ju walked back to the Chinese book, but sighed a little.

It seems that the soldiers in the south have indeed been beaten, and they are used.

Except for the effective suppression of some rebellions, it is impossible for the imperial court to continue to use troops on a large scale in the south.

However, these soldiers cannot be transferred to the north, and even if they are transferred to the north, most of them will stop cooking.

And after such a toss by Yao and Yao, it has been nearly 10 million years old.

Not only these expenses, Yao Lin went to Hedong as the chief of soldiers and horses in Taiyuan Prefecture, but not in Taiyuan, but in charge of the training and reclamation of new recruits in Lanzhou and Shizhou.

Therefore, this 10 million yuan expenditure came out, which made Wang Juju hurt.

Back home, Wang Ju called Han Yun: "You go to Shaanxi to find out the current output of Helan stone." ”

It's not easy for this family to be angry, and you have to be angry, so you will use the Tangut people to be angry. (To be continued.)
