Chapter 45
: Reforming the land and governing people by class [Please collect and read]
"Wonderful! Wonderful! Hahaha——!"
Ying Zheng slapped the table and laughed excitedly.
Wei Liao looked at Zhao Hao with a complicated expression, and was extremely shocked.
Such an outrageous conspiracy came from a boy who was only twelve years old.
Simply unbelievable.
You must know that this order of grace is not only applicable to the Yue tribe, but also to the feudal princes.
That is to say.
If the First Emperor planned to stabilize and divide the world, when the time was right, he could issue an order to dismantle the princes in various places and reunite the world.
By that time, the system of prefectures and counties had matured, and Da Qin had enough talents to govern the world.
Thinking of this, the way Wei Liao looked at Zhao Hao changed a little.
I really don’t know what’s in this kid’s head?
How could you come up with such a vicious plan?
I'm afraid even Gan Luo, who became prime minister at the age of twelve, would be ashamed of himself.
Shaking his head secretly in his heart, Wei Liao glanced at the excited Ying Zheng, frowned and asked: "Then what does it mean to change one's native land and return to one's hometown?"
"Um?"
When Ying Zheng heard Wei Liao's voice, he immediately stopped laughing and turned his gaze to Zhao Hao.
He is now becoming more and more interested in Zhao Hao's strategy.
However, Zhao Hao touched his nose unnaturally and replied with a sneer: "The so-called reform of the land and return to local rule means abolishing the original autonomy of tribal leaders and replacing it with the appointment of officials by the imperial court for unified governance and the implementation of the current system of Da Qin.
Administrative system.”
"What does this mean?"
Ying Zheng was a little puzzled: "Didn't we have the previous two plans? Why bother with this?"
“It’s not superfluous.”
Zhao Hao shook his head and said: "The first two strategies were just for stability. If we, the Qin Dynasty, want to completely pacify the south, we must plan for long-term peace and stability. After the first two strategies are fully implemented, there will be no obstacles to our control of the south."
"but."
As he spoke, he changed the topic and continued: "Those who are not from my race must have different minds. Any strategy has its limitations."
"The purpose of reforming the land and returning it to the local people is to promote the integration of the Yue people and the Qin people, to make the Central Plains culture penetrate into all Baiyue tribes, to reduce the factors of rebellion, and to strengthen the imperial court's rule over Baiyue!"
"In this case, it is a long-term strategy!"
Wei Liao muttered to himself while stroking his beard.
"hehe."
Zhao Hao smiled and said: "Why can't the naturalized Chu State govern the Baiyue tribes? It's because they regard the tribal leaders and their tribesmen as a whole!"
"Oh? Is there such a thing?"
Ying Zheng's eyes lit up and he looked at Zhao Hao in surprise.
Zhao Hao cupped his hands and said: "Back to my father, I have said before that the culture of the Yue people is very different from our culture in the Central Plains. The king and the people of our Central Plains have always been regarded as a whole;
Therefore, wars to destroy a country usually focus on destroying the king of a country."
"When the king dies, the country naturally dies as well."
"But the Yue tribe is different. The people of their tribe have no interest in our Daqin. The tribal leaders and their tribesmen must not be regarded as a whole."
"According to past experience."
Ying Zheng pondered and said: "Whether it is the Chu State or our Qin State, the naturalization and governance of the Yue people are mainly based on the tribal leaders. Most of the time, the rewards are also the tribal leaders."
"Yes, this is the crux of the problem!"
Zhao Hao nodded and said: "If the leader of the Yue tribe surrenders to our Great Qin, our Great Qin will definitely reward him with money and food, and my Great Qin's original intention is to use this money and food to appease the people of his tribe and make them grateful;
But in fact, the money and food did not fall into the hands of the tribesmen, but belonged to the tribal leaders, so naturally they will not be grateful to me, Da Qin."
"In this way, the tribal leaders will distribute the reward money and food to the tribesmen, and the tribesmen will only be grateful to them. Therefore, our rewards are actually used by them to win people's hearts."
"Shameless!"
Wei Liaokou angrily shouted.
Ying Zheng glanced at him, his expression a little ugly.
The leaders of these barbarian tribes are simply unreasonable and should really be killed.
Seeing Ying Zheng's killing intent, Zhao Hao said again: "In addition to the various reasons I mentioned before, the most important thing is to divide and govern the various ethnic groups in Baiyue!"
“Divided governance?”
Ying Zheng and Wei Liao were stunned at the same time.
Zhao Hao continued: "The so-called divided governance means that while the imperial court actively weakens them, it treats the Yue people and their leaders differently. If the leaders of the Yue people rebel against the Qin, they will be killed without mercy, but their rewards can be distributed to their own tribesmen."
“In addition, during the period of reform and return, the imperial court provided opportunities for the Yue people to reform, such as letting them open up wasteland, selecting some smart Yue people, teaching them Central Plains culture, and even letting them take exams and become officials in the court;
Then even if the interests of the tribal leaders are harmed and they want to resist our Great Qin, no one will obey them."
Speaking of this, Zhao Hao looked at Ying Zheng with a smile: "Father, do you feel like you have seen each other before?"
"Um?"
Ying Zheng was stunned for a moment, then reacted and said, "Isn't this the way to deal with the remnants of the Six Kingdoms?"
"Haha! Not bad!"
Zhao Hao raised his head and smiled: "Anyone can divide and govern as long as they clearly distinguish classes!"
"There are smart people and stupid people among the remaining people in the Six Kingdoms. The same is true for all the tribes in Baiyue. What we need to do is to distinguish the smart people from the stupid people, and use a method for the smart people and a strategy for the stupid people;
Who should be killed and who should be won over? The arrangements are clearly made for him, and he won't be able to cause much trouble!"
"this"
Ying Zheng initially had some doubts about Zhao Hao's discussion, but now that he heard Baiyue's governance methods, the more he thought about it, the more wonderful he felt.
Why can those remnants of the Six Kingdoms hijack the people to cause chaos?
Isn't it because the Qin court blamed the crimes committed by the remnants of the Six Kingdoms on the people of the Six Kingdoms?
The more the Qin court hated the remnants of the Six Kingdoms, the more harshly it governed the people of the Six Kingdoms.
In this way, the people of the Six Nations and the remnants of the Six Nations have come closer.
In the same way, if a Yue tribe leader rebels against the Qin Dynasty, the Qin army will regard his tribe as a rebel and annihilate them all.
The final result is that the tribesmen and tribe leaders who have benefited have the same hatred.
Once the tribal leaders rebel against Qin, they will live and die with the tribal leaders.
“Divided governance.”
The more Ying Zheng thought about it, the more interesting it became. Although he was also good at divided governance, such as using Zhao officials to manage Qi's counties, such as dealing with the Huns and Da Yueshi people, he would often provoke internal struggles among them, allowing Da Qin to reap the benefits.
But the differentiated governance mentioned by Zhao Hao is to divide people into classes and formulate different methods according to different groups.
Thinking of this, Ying Zheng couldn't help but laugh loudly: "Hahaha, what my son said makes sense!"
It's strange to say that this kid obviously has no knowledge and skills, how can he govern the country and bring peace to the people so well? Where did he learn it from?
If Zhao Hao could hear Ying Zheng's thoughts, he would definitely smile and say that the experience gained bit by bit by your ancestors will naturally be used on you!
I don't know how to govern the country and bring peace to the people, I'm just a porter of experience.
"Even if we use the prince's strategy to deal with the various tribes of Baiyue, how can we solve the problem of military merit?"
Just when Ying Zheng was confused and Zhao Hao was satisfied, Wei Liao said coldly: "Your Majesty can wait for one or two years without conquering Baiyue. Can they wait?"
Please collect it, please read it, please vote for me, and please vote for recommendation.
In addition, thank you to Gu Houyuan for the 100 reward.
