Liu Jin barely opened his eyes, and the bright light of the lamp immediately pierced into his eyes, making him a little dazed. .

"Your Highness is awake..." Zhang Zizhong's voice came from his ears.

Liu Jin got up, but saw his minister standing in front of a huge geek and looking at it.

Many sheets were cut into pieces of white paper and stuck on the geography, densely packed.

When Liu Jin approached, he found that it was the geostationary quarry in the Hehuang area.

On those small pieces of paper, there is a certain department and the number of towns.

Obviously, Zhang Yue is studying the power of Hehuang.

Liu Jin was not surprised. When he was in Xinfeng, no matter what he did, the Shizhong official would collect data first.

Moreover, as it turns out, his approach is very clever.

You can often analyze the problem through data and then introduce solutions to the problem.

only……

This battle can also be won by data analysis?

This is something that Liu Jin has never heard of.

After rubbing the aching temple, Liu Jin asked, "Are you sure you can pacify Hehuang in one fell swoop?"

"Of course there are..." Zhang Yue looked at the map in front of him and the data on it and said to Liu Jin: "The Western Qiang tribes are just a mob. The three thousand armored cavalry and the righteous congregation of Huangzhong can severely punish those people, so that they will not dare to look eastward in Hexi for ten years!"

Today, the Qiang tribes were swept away by General Li Xi more than 20 years ago, driving them westward from the warm, comfortable and fertile Hexi Corridor, directly passing through the Huangshui River and into the Qinghai territory of later generations.

Qinghai was a famous tourist destination in later generations, with beautiful mountains and rivers, blue sky and white clouds, and beautiful and spectacular scenery.

In other words, it is actually a major tourist province.

Agriculture and industry are underdeveloped.

In BC...

It can only be described as barren land.

On this primitive frozen soil, the Qiang people had nothing to do and could only rely on sheep to survive.

These tribes lack nothing and nothing!

Most of them even remained in the Stone Age!

For the Han army, it is very easy to defeat them.

There is no need to mobilize elite Han army. As in the past, the leaders of the Huangzhong Yishu led the captain of the Qiang, and they could teach them a lesson at once and cut back many heads.

Last year, didn’t Fan Mingyou behead three thousand?

but……

What's the use?

The Han army could win the Western Qiang tribes scattered on the Gobi frozen soil of the vast plateau, living in the Yellow River, and the source of the Yangtze River. However, the Han army could not conquer, and could not make them surrender and obey.

It is a difficult thing to make the Qiang people bow their heads and obey!

The Yuezhi people did not do it, nor did the Huns.

Even the Han Empire was at its peak, relying on Huo Qubing's personal charm, it intimidated three larger Qiang tribes, allowing them to settle in the four counties of Hexi to guard the passes for the Han Dynasty.

This is what is called Heqiang, Guqiang and Quqiang.

However, the Qiang people's big heads were said to have the blood of the unburned Qiang, and the Qiang sister Qiang and Xianling Qiang were rebellious and refused to obey.

In the end, he even colluded with the Huns, almost destroying the four counties of Hexi in the Han family.

Now, although it has been driven to the barren plateau west of the Huangshui River.

But in the future, they broke through the barriers set up by the Han Dynasty for them, broke into Hexi, and caused a disaster that lasted for the Han Dynasty.

Facing such a group that cannot be defeated, has a tenacious will and is tenacious.

Zhang Yue knew that a military solution was just a bad idea.

Political and cultural solutions are the best strategy.

War is more than killing.

As a time traveler, Zhang Yue knew that the way of using troops could reach the extreme, and that flying flowers and picking leaves could kill people!

This is also proved by the development of later generations.

Using missiles is just a last resort, and it is a last resort.

Economy, culture, trade and raw materials, tourism...

There is nothing that cannot be used to conquer and destroy the enemy.

And, the effect is very good!

Of course, those are the means of later generations, and when used now, they are imitating each other, which makes people laugh.

It can only be used as reference and analysis.

Take the appropriate part and refer to its ideas and methods.

However, Liu Jin looked at the numbers marked on the dense paper sheets in front of him, and felt frightened.

Just the tribes marked on it are hundreds of thousands of people.

As for the customs of barbarians, a family of Han people is a family in a country.

At least several mouthfuls, at most dozens of mouthfuls.

These are millions of people who are going to face war.

Although Liu Jin had already realized that he was the eldest grandson of the Xia Dynasty and had long given up his unrealistic kindness towards the barbarians in his heart.

But he is a gentleman after all.

I can't bear to see my death when I see my life.

Listening to the murderous aura in Zhang Yue's words, Liu Jin couldn't help but persuade: "You are here, please be kind and don't commit murder in vain..."

Zhang Yue heard this, laughed and said, "Don't worry, Your Highness, I am not going to kill, but to transform the king, and to educate the people!"

"I am not going to bring killing and destruction to the Western Qiang, but to bring them the grace of the emperor and the poetry, books, rituals and music of China!"

The tone was set at the beginning!

Killing cannot solve the problem.

The way to solve the problem is to set the stage for military affairs, culture plays, and economic leads the way.

As a former civil servant, Zhang Yue is very familiar with this.

Liu Jin listened, but he didn't believe it.

Zhang Yue looked at it and smiled and said, "Please wait and see!"

"Before I leave, I will ask Your Majesty to ask me to 'cultivate virtue' in the Huangshui River for three months..."

Liu Jin listened, he could naturally get Zhang Yue's joke.

When Shun was at that time, Miao was not convinced, and Yu was about to attack him. Shun said: No, the virtues of the emperor are not strong and the martial arts are not Tao! He then cultivated virtue for three years and held the Gan Qiwu, and Miao was convinced.

This story was recorded in the Legal masterpiece "Han Feizi", and then the Confucianism wiped the dust and used it for yourself.

However, Liu Jin now knows that this story has not only a follow-up, but also a prequel.

In Han Feizi, it was used as an argument that "if things are different, they will be prepared for changes. In ancient times, they competed for morality, in the Middle Ages, and in today's competition for strength."

As a proof that "removing the benevolence of King Yan, resting the wisdom of Zigong, following the power of Xu and Lu, and making the enemy ten thousand chariots, then Qi and Jing will not be able to travel to the two countries."

After reading this article, Liu Jin did not close his eyes for three days and three nights. As soon as he got on the bed, Han Feizi's words lingered in his eyes.

It made him toss and turn, and it was difficult for him to fall asleep.

so……

He looked at Zhang Yue, took a deep breath, and asked, "You believe that you can still rely on cultivating virtue and make people from afar surrender?"

This is the argument of Gu Liang and some ancient literary schools, thinking that morality is better than everything.

As long as kings and ministers cultivate virtue together, whether it is the Huns or barbarians, they will kneel down obediently and rush to surrender to the court.

Zhang Yue listened, nodded, and said extremely seriously: "Your Highness, of course I believe it!"

"Benevolence, loyalty, filial piety, wisdom and courage, trustworthiness, these eight virtues have infinite power and infinite power..."
