Chapter 631 The Four Famous Phases of the Qin State (4000 words)(1/2)

"The matter of pacifying the Di tribe is handed over to the Xiaxia. Although the Xiaxia is not talented, it has prestige among the Di tribe. As for the Qiang tribe, it needs to be given both kindness and power. It should be given first to appease and exhort their land rent and taxes, and if they do not obey the order, then they will attack them."

Fu Jian was summoned by Zhang Hua. As the leader of the Di tribe, Fu Jian, like Emperor Xiaowen of the Northern Wei Dynasty, advocated the Han Confucian culture and answered the questions in a smooth manner.

With Fu Jian taking action, it was easy to recruit Di tribes.

Fu Jian was also actively transforming the Di tribe into the Chinese tribe and expressed his support for Zhang Hua's idea.

"This is the household registration, terrain, laws and other books of the Qin State. However, due to the war and the people fled, the household registration files may no longer be applicable."

Shang Yang presented various information from Qin and reorganized Qin.

"Send officials to recall the fugitives, pardon their crimes of escape, and exempt them from taxes in the southern Liang area for three years."

Zhang Hua oralized the government orders, Shang Yang, Fan Sui, and Li Si need to be patiently recorded.

Zhang Hua gave preferential treatment to the people in the southern Liang land. Such efforts were enough to attract the fugitive people to return to the land.

In ancient times, people were content with their hometowns and would not leave their hometowns unless they had to be absolutely necessary.

"As for the Qiang and Di tribes, they forcibly implemented the county system and changed the land and returned to the current, so that the tribes' people would farm on the spot and were not allowed to migrate, and they were treated the same as those of Liangzhou. Three years later, the land and rent taxes were collected. The tribes that made contributions during the Jieting War were exempted from their taxes for five years as promised."

"Liangzhou is exhausted, and the next year, some of the population in Guanzhong migrated to the Qiang tribes and the Di tribes to live in the territory and reclaim wasteland. More preferential treatment will be given to those who reclaim the wasteland."

"In addition, the chiefs of each tribe must send their eldest son to Chang'an City to learn the culture of Han Confucianism. Only after the chief dies can he return to the tribe."

"Any tribe that disobeys, kills the rebels and the tribe's people, and all serves as hard labor."

Zhang Hua recognized Fu Jian's views and used both kindness and power, and at the same time moved some of the population of Guanzhong to enter Nanliang, accelerating the process of Chineseization of various tribes and reducing the proportion of the population of Qiang and Di.

Nanliang was the bridgehead to capture Bashu in the future. From here, you can smuggle Yinping and directly seize Bashu.

Zhang Hua issued government orders one by one, and Shang Yang, Fan Sui, and Li Si were all famous officials, trying to implement these government orders.

While catching lice, Wang Meng watched Shang Yang, Fan Sui, Li Si and other Qin ministers record the oral government orders Zhang Hua said, and was content.

"You guys go ahead for the time being, Jingluo, you can stay alone."

After Zhang Hua issued a series of decrees, he saw Wang Meng looking leisurely, so he left Wang Meng alone.

Wang Meng is not an ordinary person, but a talented person, who is not inferior to the four famous prime ministers of Qin.

Not only that, Wang Meng, like Zhuge Liang, liked to lead troops to fight and assist Fu Jian in unifying the north.

"Jingluo, why don't you say a word?"

Zhang Hua knew that Wang Meng was a talented person, and his relationship with Fu Jian was like Zhuge Liang to Liu Bei.

"There are already many civil officials who share the worries of the king. Every matter is very small, everyone will deal with it. Why do you need me to do this too much?"

“…”

Zhang Hua admitted that what Wang Meng said made sense. When the four major names of Qin were the same, Wang Meng did not need to intervene, and even had too many people.

The number of names and ministers in Qin State is really scary.

"Jing Lue thinks, if we want to unify the world, what should we do next?"

Zhang Hua knew that Wang Meng was not just a minister of the interior, but also a counselor and commander. Fu Jian was able to unify the north. Basically, Wang Meng led Deng Qiang, Zhang Hao and other military generals to conquer the city and territories.

Wang Meng became the prime minister of the Former Qin Dynasty, governed the military affairs of China and abroad, and held military power, which was quite prominent.

If Wang Meng is not dead, Xie Xuan may not be able to win the battle of Feishui.

Wang Meng replied: "The king now lives in Guanzhong, Liangzhou, Heluo, and Central Plains. The territory is even better than Cao Cao before Guandu. I am afraid that all the princes in the world will be frightened when they hear this news. Soon, the land in Guandong will form a coalition force to attack the king."

Zhang Hua fell silent and said, "I would like to give you some advice."

Wang Meng general killed a lice and said without any rush: "The king was polite to the people of Liangzhou and did not use troops to Bashu within a few years. At this time, he should take advantage of the fact that the princes of Guandong have not yet formed an alliance and seize Qi territory, Huainan and Huainan, and then cross the Yellow River to the north and unify the north. As long as he occupied the north and drank the Yangtze River, it would be easy to turn his back."

"What Jing Lue thinks is exactly what I am worried about. In the future, Jing Lue will give advice and help me unify the world."

When Zhang Hua heard Wang Meng’s analysis, he was indeed what Zhang Hua was worried about recently.

Defeating the powerful Qin, occupying Liangzhou, and building six new legions is a very critical step.

But the problem follows.

Zhang Hua's territory is already quite vast, with the number of troops exceeding one million. Now he has annexed Liangzhou, with a larger population and has obtained a large number of horse-producing lands.

When King Zheng of Qin was captured, most of the other princes would empathize with him and guard against Zhang Hua.

Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu had previously been evenly matched with Zhang Hua, so he formed an alliance with Zhang Hua and married his sister Princess Ningping Liu Boji to Zhang Hua.

Now Liu Xiu has not taken over the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, and Zhang Hua has taken over Liangzhou in advance and sent troops to attack Qilu. His power exceeds Liu Xiu, so Liu Xiu will inevitably have other ideas.

Wang Meng's proposal was to occupy Qi territory, Huainan and Huainan as soon as possible, divide the princes north of the Yellow River and south of the Yangtze River, so as to prevent the princes from forming alliances between the north and the south, and reappearing the situation of the eighteen princes attacking Dong Zhuo, or the Kanto countries forming a coalition army.

Zhang Hua left Wang Meng behind and invited Wang Shouren to discuss and plan the world.

Wang Shouren has a high opinion of Wang Meng, and the two of them appreciate each other.

The next day, Zhang Hua checked the panel of the civil officials of the four prime ministers of Qin.

【Hero】: Shang Yang

【Level】: 50

[Commander]: 70 [Military power]: 57 [Intellect]: 90 [Politics]: 105

[First talent]: Rule of law (internal affairs talent, power to which Shang Yang belongs, the influence of the Legalists has expanded, officials and civilians have strengthened their awareness of the rule of law, recognized legal provisions, attached importance to private property, and the influence of powerful families has decreased, but it is easy to cause dissatisfaction among the aristocratic families)

[Second Talent]: Focus on agriculture (internal affairs talent, stimulate agricultural production, improve grain output through focusing on agriculture, reclaiming wasteland, suppressing merchants, etc., to stimulate agricultural production, increase grain output, gain support from farmers, improve farmers' hearts and increase satisfaction, but it is easy to cause dissatisfaction among merchants)

[Third Talent]: Martial Arts (internal talent, through heavy fighting, military merits and other means, it is easier to recruit soldiers, military generals in the territory, soldiers are more warlike, morale is not easy to decline, and high-quality soldiers are more likely to be born in the territory)

[Special Army]: Qin Ruishi (Seventh-level Army)

[Article]: A representative figure of the Legalists of the Warring States Period advocated that if a sage can strengthen the country, he would not obey the reason; if he can benefit the people, he would not follow the etiquette.

"A civil servant with a political value of 105...!!!"

This is the first time Zhang Hua saw Shang Yang's amazing attributes that he saw such a high single attribute!

The political value of 105 means that handling various internal affairs is basically at the point of being able to do it casually!

Shang Yang was appointed as a minister, even if he didn't want to be rich and strong in the country.

With its population less than Zhang Hua, Qin once put huge pressure on Zhang Hua. It can be seen that Shang Yang's improvement on Qin turned Qin into a war machine.

But Shang Yang and Wu Qi were like those who reformed and strengthened their power, and they would threaten the interests of the nobles. As long as the king who trusted them died, the noble group would liquidate them.

Shang Yang and Wu Qi both ended up miserably.

Zhang Hua can understand why Li Si agreed with Zhao Gao and changed Hu Hai to Qin II.

The confidant of Prince Fusu's trust was Meng Tian. When Qin Shihuang died, Li Si's status was lost. He served as prime ministers of Qin, Shang Yang, Zhang Yi, and Lu Buwei, who were all purged or expelled after the new king ascended the throne.

As the saying goes, one emperor and another minister.

It is not unreasonable that Li Si was worried that Young Master Fusu would be cleansed if he was promoted.

Shang Yang's talent involves the rule of law, emphasis on agriculture, and martial arts, which can be the most suitable internal affairs talent for troubled times.

【Hero】: Li Si

【Level】: 30

[Commander]: 22 [Military power]: 36 [Intellect]: 87 [Politics]: 97

[First Talent]: Rule of Law (Internal Affairs Talent)

[Second Talent]: County system (internal talent, strongly advocate the county system, oppose the feudal system, and believes that the feudal system is the root of troubled times, enhancing the cohesion of the empire and the authority of the emperor)

[Third Talent]: Unification (internal talent, striving to unify the text, currency, weights and measures in the territory, so that the people in the territory can invisibly form cultural identity)

【Special Army】: None

[Article]: Prime Minister of the Qin Dynasty, a disciple of Confucian Xunzi, but practices the Legalist ideas.

Among the many ministers of Qin, Li Si's political value was second only to Shang Yang. Li Si had an extremely advanced political vision. Whether it was unified in weights and measures or the implementation of the county system, it was extremely correct under the conditions at that time. Even Liu Bang's Han Dynasty inherited many systems of the Qin Dynasty.

It’s not that there is any problem with the Qin system, but that Qin Shihuang did not completely solve the remaining aristocrats of the six countries and the large-scale construction, and the Chen Sheng and Wu Guang uprising broke out, and the descendants of the six countries responded...

Zhang Hua did not doubt Li Si's ability, and the political value of 97 can be said to be first-class among the civil officials of all dynasties.

Of course, many of Li Si's system were inherited from Shang Yang. For example, the predecessor of the county system was the county system implemented by Shang Yang in Qin. Li Si promoted it to the whole world and tried his best to maintain the county system.

The unified thinking between Li Si and Qin Wang Zheng is the greatest property left to the descendants of China.

Shang Yang and Li Si are more like the Minister of the Interior, while Zhang Yi and Fan Sui are more like the straitor.

【Hero】: Zhang Yi

【Level】: 55

[Commander]: 83 [Military power]: 70 [Intellect]: 97 [Politics]: 85

[First Talent]: Speech (spiritual talent, Zhang Yi's words will inadvertently affect the person who is talking, causing them to be affected unconsciously; the larger the intellectual gap between the two sides, the more likely they are to be affected by Zhang Yi's words)

[Second Talent]: Mind reading skills (spiritual talent, there is a chance to read the other party’s mind. The larger the intelligence difference between the two parties, the easier it is to succeed, and it can prevent others from reading the mind)

【Special Army】: None

[Article]: Prime Minister of Qin, disciple of Guigu, and a leader of the Warring States Period.
