Shouzhou is located on the south bank of the Huai River, at the southern foot of Bagong Mountain, looking at Fengyang in the east, neighboring Huoqiu County across the Weishui River in the west, adjoining Feixi and Lu'an County in the south, bordering Yingshang County in the north, and flowing from Luzhou in the north, flowing into the Huai River around Shouzhou.

Here is the traffic point of the south and the north, the famous battle of the water in the Eastern Jin Dynasty took place here, because of this war produced the familiar nouns such as "throwing the whip and breaking the stream", "the wind is roaring", "the grass and trees are soldiers", "the resurgence of the East Mountain".

At this moment, to Ilgen Jueluo in Shouzhou City. Ah Shan, why not the rumors, the grass and trees are soldiers.

That damn Guerga. Ao Bai was called the first warrior of Manchuria in vain, and he didn't let go of a fart, so he escaped across the Huai River and fled to Yingshang in a smoke.

Is this what a first warrior should do? This is clearly an escape warrior.

In fact, Ah Shan was somewhat wronged, and the Chebai retreated to Ying, which was by no means as simple as greed for life and fear of death, which was caused by the intensification of internal divisions in the Manchu Qing Dynasty.

Since going south, the hard work and tiring Duoduo have been let Chebai to do it, and when the main force withdrew, the thousands of men and horses left for Chebai were all crooked melons and inferior dates.

Chebai believed that Duoduo clearly wanted to use the hands of the Qin army to destroy him, the main cadre of the Haoge faction.

Otherwise, if Duoduo really wanted him to stay in Fengyang, he should leave some elite soldiers, and only when he couldn't drag it out could he break through.

Since Duoduo is unkind, it is no wonder that he is unjust.

Ah Shan, who was actually a victim of factional struggle within the Manchu Qing Dynasty, made a thunderous blow and ascended to the Tongshu Gate in the south, but saw that the Qin army outside the city was camped for several miles, and the banners were long, and they were rolling with the west wind.

Outside the city, dozens of Qin troops rushed on prancing horses, galloping along the outer side of the moat, and constantly firing arrows at the head of the city. The arrow was strapped with a note of paper.

Ah Shan asked him to pick up an arrow, opened the note on it, and saw that the note read: Those who take the initiative to lay down their arms and surrender will be given preferential treatment. Those who resist will be killed!

Ah Shan was furious again when he saw it, and asked people to collect all the persuasion letters that the Qin army shot at the head of the city, but this would not have any effect, and many soldiers in the city had read the letter of persuasion.

Qin Jun's letter of persuasion was so concise that it was like the most unquestionable ultimatum, and the tone was unquestionable. Either you surrender or you die.

Furious, Ah Shan immediately ordered 2,000 men and horses, personally went out of the city to fight with the Qin army for a while, but did not get any bargain, the two armies each suffered dozens of casualties, Ah Shan saw that the morale of the Qin army was like a rainbow, and his men and horses could not rush against Meng Ke's infantry array, so he had to hurriedly collect his troops and return to the city.

Meng Ke sent troops to dig trenches outside both the north gate and the east gate to block the way out of the Qing army. Then he concentrated his forces at the south gate and the west gate, began to storm the city, and sent people to dig tunnels outside the west gate, preparing to blow up the city wall.

Meanwhile. Li Jiu's thousands of cavalry also arrived in Shouzhou, making the Qin army even more powerful.

The Qing troops in the city all knew that they had fallen to death, and it was impossible for the slow army to cross the Huai south to support them, and their morale was extremely low. But Ah Shan was unwilling to be restrained, and under his strict orders, the Qing army was still fighting. It's just how long they can hold on.

Qin Mu in Chuzhou City was very confident in the war in Shouzhou. Although, because of Meng Ke's relationship with Huo Sheng, Cui Feng and others, he has been faintly pressing Meng Ke, but Qin Mu is absolutely confident in his military talent.

With Meng Ke here, there is no need for him to spend his energy on the war in Shouzhou.

At this time, the good news of Guizhou finally came back, and Qin Mu's energy was temporarily diverted to the southwest.

Sima Kai obviously made a lot of effort in advance in terms of southwest affairs, and only listened to him talk eloquently: "In the southwest region, all ethnic groups live together, it is difficult to govern, since the Qin and Han dynasties, it has been difficult to really effectively rule, but from the Han and Tang dynasties to the Tusi system adopted in the Yuan and Ming dynasties, there has been a lot of progress in strengthening the governance of the southwest;

After the founding of the Ming Dynasty, in addition to the three military attache positions inherent in the Yuan Dynasty, there were three kinds of military attaché positions. Three civil official positions were added: Tuzhifu, Tuzhizhou, and Tuzhixian.

Tusi undertook a certain amount of service to the imperial court and provided troops in accordance with the imperial court's requisition orders; Internally, he maintains his right to rule as a clan chief. In the Ming Dynasty, the contribution of the Tusi army to the imperial court was indispensable, the most typical is the stone pillar Tusi, Qin Liangyu fought for the Ming Dynasty for a lifetime, and made a pardon for the war exploits, which is a model for the Tusi of the Ming Dynasty. ”

Qin Mu asked calmly: "Then according to your meaning, should my dynasty still use the Tusi system to appease the southwestern tribes?" ”

"Back to the King of Qin, yes, Weichen thought that the Tusi system was really full of drawbacks, and the Tusi in various places enjoyed various privileges, owned armies, set up private prisons, fought and killed each other, and seriously hindered the centralization of power. In order to control the southwest in the early Ming Dynasty, the Guizhou political envoy alone needed nearly 200,000 Chen soldiers, which cost countless people.

On the other hand, once the control of the Central Plains Dynasty weakened, it often rebelled endlessly, and the rebellion of Lu'an during the Apocalypse lasted for 17 years, affecting the four provinces of Sichuan, Guizhou, Yunnan and Guizhou, with more than one million casualties. Now there are Anrupan, Sha Dingzhou, and others who are trying to establish themselves as kings.

This time, the general of the expedition to the south of the Shuixi clan toast ploughed the holes, naturally it was the best policy to take the opportunity to change the land and return to the stream, but Weichen thought that it would be better to delay the change of the Tusi in Shuixi, and if the soil was changed and returned to the stream immediately, it was very likely that all the Tusi in the southwest would be hostile to our Great Qin. ”

Qin Mu continued to ask noncommittally: "The time can be discussed, but sooner or later the land will have to be changed and returned, the problem now is that the two or three hundred thousand Yi people are scattered in the area of the water and the west of the barbarian miasma, and the poor mountains and ravines are difficult to govern, even if they send flow officials, how can this problem be solved?" ”

Sima Kai replied confidently: "Weichen thinks that if you want to succeed in changing the land and returning to the stream, you need to start from two aspects, one is to use Sinicization to destroy the country, and the other is to use the raze to control the land. ”

"Tell me about it."

"Yes, King Qin." Sima Kai hugged the circle for a moment, and then said: "The so-called Sinicization is to move these tribes living in the poor mountains and ravines out, or to choose a site to build a city in some relatively flat locations, and at the same time move in to the Han people, to educate them, or directly disperse and move them into the Han people-dominated areas, so that they are gradually sinicized.

As for the razing of raze, it is to be treated separately, the Yi has the distinction of ripe and raw, easy to restrict and difficult to restrict, the imperial court should win over the familiar and raw and strong, and pull those living areas are relatively flat to attack those deep mountains and old forests;

For example, this time, the transportation in the living area of the Song clan in Shuidong is relatively convenient, and the Shuixi clan is in the middle of the lofty mountains, so it is necessary to pull the cage water east to make water west, and the water west is solved, and it will not be difficult to restrict the water east in the future.

Now the world is in turmoil, the various toasts are also ready to move, compete for territory, the contradiction intensifies, it is a good time for my Daqin to pull one to fight one, each to break through, so the court may use troops in the southwest for a longer time, and the cost is larger, but Weichen thinks that the court is not a pity for this tip, when the plan is once and for all, it must not be done.

In addition, it is divided from within the various Tusi, among the various Tusi in the southwest, many of them still practice slavery, and the Tusi exploits and poisons the people under their jurisdiction, does evil, is brutal and wanton, and does everything wantonly, and the people have no place to redress their grievances and have nowhere to say their suffering. In fact, there are many contradictions within it. The imperial court could take advantage of the contradictions between the Tusi and the Tu people to divide them and disintegrate them from within. ”

Sima Kai's strategy of changing the land and returning to the stream, Qin Mu nodded frequently after listening to it, and I have to say that Sima Kai's views are still unique, and Qin Mu even suspects that he has his father's guidance.

Subsequently, Qin Mu asked Gu Junen and others for advice, Gu Junen said: "The minister also agrees with the vigorous use of suppression, and it is not possible to engage in it, Ming Taizu continued to use the Yuan system to set up the Tusi, and its disadvantages have been clear at a glance;

At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, Guizhou garrisoned more than 100,000 troops, and it cost countless generations to come, and Zhuyi was still in rebellion.

Now it mainly depends on Yunnan, the rebellion of Shadingzhou affected the whole of Yunnan, the Ming army in Yunnan has long collapsed, this chaos is actually a battle between Tusi; As Lord Sima said, the battle between the Tusi in Yunnan intensified the contradictions between them, and it was the time for our Great Qin to divide and attack;

In the late Ming Dynasty 20 years, in the original chaos, and Yunnan has been relatively stable, in order to smoothly change the land and return to the stream, once and for all, the minister thought that he might as well let Yunnan chaos for a long time;

Since ancient times, people's hearts have only been settled after a long time of chaos, and furthermore, the longer the chaos continues, the weaker the toasts will become in the battle."
