sweeping the world

Chapter 595 It's an honor to be the king's pioneer

Zhuoxian County in Youzhou is now entering the season of melting ice and snow. A large amount of melting ice and snow will inevitably turn into water. In an instant, there will be gurgling water everywhere, and the ground will be soaked wet and soft by the melting ice and snow.

Such a season is not suitable for large-scale warfare, otherwise a large number of people trample on the ground, which will cause the land to become muddy.And stepping on it will easily become muddy, which is very distressing for the marching of troops and the transportation of supplies.

Liu Yan himself is in Zhuo County.He had just come back from Xiang Kingdom half a month ago, and he wanted to personally preside over the next campaign against Murong Yan Kingdom. He planned to destroy Murong Yan Kingdom in one fell swoop, and he might also take advantage of the situation to clean up the increasingly restless Goguryeo.

"Gao Zhao is very obedient to the big man on the surface, but secretly he keeps moving." Ji Chang said with no expression on his face: "The frequent attacks on the soldiers of the big man in Goguryeo can be used as a reason for the big man to punish his dissidents."

"The big man has been sending women from Goguryeo, and the folks will inevitably boil with criticism." Lu Yi is smirking: "So far, the number of women belonging to Han nationality has exceeded [-]. If this continues, Goguryeo will soon have no suitable age to give birth to the next generation. woman."

The gap between men and women in Han has always been very large. There are only one woman for three men, which means that there will be two men who will find it difficult to find a wife. woman.

A large gap in the ratio of men to women in a country will lead to many problems. Not only will various sex-related cases occur frequently, but it will also cause great resentment in the society. If there are too many single people, the society will inevitably lose its development momentum. .After all, as a man, he needs a family to settle down, and he has to work to support his family, even if he doesn't want to, he has to endure it. With a wife and children, the impulsiveness will inevitably disappear.If you have no hope of getting a wife, you may give up on yourself. Under the premise that one person is full and the whole family is not hungry, there is no chance of being aggressive.

If you want to change the gender structure of a country, the best way is to introduce women from outside. To put it bluntly, it is to use various methods to attract women from other countries to marry men from your own country.

With the country's small size, poor economy, poor public security, and many other disadvantages, it will be extremely difficult to attract women from other countries.A huge gap between men and women will inevitably plunge the country into turmoil, riots and even civil wars should occur frequently, and then a large number of people will die under a large number of conflicts.There may be strong figures to end the turmoil. At that time, a large number of men will die in the turmoil, the ratio of men to women will return to balance, and the country will enter a period of construction. This is also a natural self-recovery.

In many countries with a relatively large gap between men and women, violence cannot be used to introduce women in the general environment. They will repeatedly promote the quality of life in their own country, and then select some outstanding men to set up role models and increase the charm of men in their own countries to attract women from other countries. favor.After some successful image projects, they will encourage their men to travel abroad in order to pair up in encounter after encounter.Or to attract people from other countries to travel in this country, focusing on attracting women, or for matching.

Now is not an era of peace in the general environment, and the country of Han does not look weak. It should be said that its military strength is still extremely strong.As long as the ruling class is shameless and wants to improve the domestic gender gap, it is not difficult to plunder women abroad.

Liu Yan is not a person who cares about face, it is only under his hint that Ji Chang made his move. The target of attack is the surrounding countries. Of course, some enemy countries directly use military means, while some vassal countries use coercion and lure.

Goguryeo was a victim of the large gap between men and women in the Han Dynasty, and they themselves lost a large number of men in several wars in previous years.

Goguryeo's population is about one million, and it suffered several major defeats at the hands of Murong Xianbei. The most serious one was killing and capturing more than [-] young adults by Murong Xianbei.For a country with a population of only a million or so, losing [-] young people is not far from the country's destruction. I don't know how Goguryeo survived?Probably it can only be explained by the fact that Murong Xianbei did not have the desire to destroy Goguryeo. (This is a historical fact)
A large number of young and strong people in the country were killed and captured. Because of the tense situation, the country will inevitably recruit enough young and strong men to join the army. A large number of young and strong men will disappear from the people. There will definitely be more women than men in the countryside.

From the third year of Yuanshuo, Goguryeo became a vassal state of the Han state. It was not until the fourth year of Yuanshuo that Han troops entered the territory of Goguryeo. It was not for any stability maintenance, but simply because the military deliberately gave the soldiers holidays and encouraged them. Go to Goguryeo to hook up with women.

In the fourth year of Yuanshuo period, it was considered a bit of face for Han to obtain female resources from Goguryeo. Only soldiers with a thick skin and their own means could get a daughter-in-law.However, five years after Yuanshuo, the center of the Han Dynasty completely turned down its face, and the military began to act unscrupulously after receiving the hint. Regardless of whether it was hidden lures or direct tough measures, it can only be said that the results have been remarkable.

[-] women of the right age are actually very few for Han, but if all of them are the daughters-in-law of military soldiers, it will appear to be very many.

"Preferential treatment of soldiers is a must." Liu Yan said as a matter of course: "Soldiers who shed their blood for the great man should have a descendant to pass on the incense."

There is another important place, those soldiers who got married, they will be arranged in some relatively special areas after retiring, such as the local resettlement after Murong Xianbei was wiped out.

Placing retired soldiers in unstable areas is improving the local population structure. The background of the retired army will also make them subconsciously monitor and maintain the stability of the place, which can effectively enhance the local social order and deter those who have evil intentions. .

"So, not only Goguryeo, but also Baekje, Silla, and the islands of Japan are all countries where we obtain female resources." Lu Yi didn't feel that there was anything to be ashamed of: "They can change to Chinese, It must be a great honor and joy.”

Whether those women who have become the daughters-in-law of the Han family feel honored is temporarily unclear, but happiness is inevitable.Liu Yan has always favored the military, generously rewarding land and wealth, and the social status of the military is not low, so the living standards of the family members are not much worse.The soldiers have land and wealth, and the more sensible people will properly support the daughter-in-law's natal family, and in the end they are drawn into a group again.

For the country, no action is small, and a small matter will inevitably affect all aspects. Simply trying to improve the gender gap in the country has a lot of effects.

"These small countries in the east are just one of them." Xu Zhengyou smirked sympathetically: "Qiang, Di, and Xianbei of the yellow race, except for those Capricorn women who look like monsters, any woman of other races Is it possible to become the daughter-in-law of a Han Dynasty?"

The Capricorn woman Xu Zheng mentioned is just a general term, referring to those white-skinned, yellow-haired, green-eyed Caucasians.

Since ancient times, the Central Plains Dynasty has not regarded people with different appearances as human beings.From an aesthetic point of view, the Central Plains people really think that Caucasians are similar to monsters, and only those with the same skin color, hair color, and eyes are considered human beings.According to some people, the stage when the Jie people ruled the Central Plains was the period when they were ruled by beasts. Not only were they the beasts in appearance, but the cruelty of the Jie people was worse than that of wild beasts.

Xianbei is divided into yellow race and white race. The appearance of the yellow race in Xianbei is actually different from that of people in the traditional Chinese region, the most obvious being the nose.

Those areas near the North Pole are cold areas. People who live and reproduce there for a long time will have relatively taller noses and elongated nostrils. This is an evolution of human beings to adapt to nature.For example, the rest of Nordic Roba and Europa have white skin, but there are also very obvious features on the nose.

The Caucasians of Xianbei did not come from the Western Regions.According to the lineage, those white people are actually the ancestors of the Cossacks. They originally belonged to a branch of the Huns. After the decline of the Huns, they were annexed by Xianbei and became white Xianbei people.

Xianbei's expansion process took hundreds of years. It was originally part of Donghu. The first annexed object was Karasuma, who also came from Donghu. Later, it annexed many Tungus people near Changbai Mountain.No matter who they are, the skin and hair color may be the same, but each area will have its own facial features.Therefore, Xianbei is a tribe with quite a lot of races, but after the founding of the country, it was dominated by the Murong clan.

Liu Yan is eager to increase the population, especially as the restoration of most of the old land of the Han family is approaching. What he desires in his heart is to increase the population under his rule, otherwise the pace of expansion will stagnate due to insufficient population.

At this time, Sang Yu hurriedly stepped over the threshold and walked in. As soon as he entered, he went to Liu Yan, who was in the main seat, and handed him an iron box with feathers pinned on it.

The military's good news will have feathers on the beeswax, which will make people know it is a good news by looking at the appearance.

There is another person behind Sang Yu, who looks like a school lieutenant.He sneaked a few glances into the room, and found that the big men couldn't help but breathe a little more heavily, and they heard the call when they were still thinking about it.

"How many days did it take to get from Xiliang to Zhuo County?" Liu Yan was still removing the beeswax from the iron box, scraping it with a dagger, but he didn't stop talking: "Has Xie An crossed the river?"

After Zhou Qian came in, he knelt down on one knee, did not dare to raise his head when he heard the question, and replied respectfully: "Go back to my king, General Zhonglang hasn't crossed the river yet."

Youzhou is still preparing for the battle due to the season, but Xiliang has been fighting for a month or two. Counting the time, the fleet should be in place. Once the fleet arrives, it should be as reported by Xie An Start crossing the river and enter the stage of fierce battle with the main force of Zhang's Liang army.

The movements of Liu Yan's hands paused for a moment, he looked up at Zhou Qian, and then opened the iron box again, took out a roll of white silk inside, looked at the corners of his mouth twitching a few times, and handed the white silk To Xu Zheng.

"Zhang Chong took the initiative to go out of the city to fight, and after losing the enemy, he led his army to surrender..." Xu Zheng just read some words briefly, and got Liu Yan's consent to pass on the victory news.The expression on his face was joyful, but more of an inexplicable sarcasm: "Zhang Zuo sent people to contact Zhengxi Zhonglang General, and he wanted to be the king's minion and conquer the Western Regions for the king?"

Xie An's troops far away in Xiliang did not start crossing the river yet, and on the third day after they captured Jincheng, the reinforcements recruited from behind arrived.

Before Xie An sent someone to report to the center, the fleet he was ordered to go to was still on its way.On the one hand, he was dealing with Jincheng's surrender, and on the other hand, he had to maintain stability. At the same time, he was also collecting materials for building bridges, trying to turn Jincheng into a bridgehead for the Han army to continue westward.

Zhang Zuo, who had no firm will to resist, immediately sent Chief Zhao after Jincheng changed hands. Chief Zhao asked to see Xie An on behalf of Zhang Zuo and conducted a very subtle test.Xie Anke was not qualified enough to take such a big idea, so he naturally reported it to the central committee immediately.

After some passing, those who should be qualified to watch have already finished watching. Except for Xu Zheng's sarcasm, the rest of the people are in deep thought, and no one speaks easily to express their opinions.

Before Zhou Qian came all the way to deliver the official document, he went out under Xun Xian's signal. Someone would take him to wash and have a meal, and he would also arrange a residence, waiting for the center to make a decision before being summoned.

"Since the rise of the Zhang clan, they know that their power has not expanded to the east, and they have been trying their best to expand to the west." When Ji Chang spoke, he was actually laughing, making everyone who saw it look sideways.He said with a smile: "Zhang Jun severely injured Shanshan, and his soldiers approached Cheshi and Kucha, forcing all countries in the Western Regions to unite to resist. Waiting for Zhang Chonghua to come to power, Xiliang will change its strategic direction."

Then again, when Zhang Jun was in power in Xiliang, there was Shijie Zhao Guo in the east who looked extremely powerful. At that time, Shijie Zhao Guo didn’t go to conquer Xiliang. Zhao Guo.

As far as Xiliang is concerned, Shijie Zhao Guo cannot be easily provoked. Xiliang is a bitter and cold land under the rule of Xiliang, and it will not be able to increase its strength if it does not seek outside to expand its strength.As early as Zhang Shi's period, Xiliang had already begun to turn its attention to the west, and it was not until Zhang Mao was in power that it began to march to the west, but Zhang Mao died soon, and it was not until Zhang Jun took office that it really started to move.

Why did Zhang Chonghua change the ruling strategy of previous generations?That is the rise of the Han Dynasty under Liu Yan's rule was too rapid. If it was just a simple Han Dynasty, it would be the same, but Liu Yan also shouted to restore the old land of the Han family in an all-round way. Far away, none of the Xiongnu tribes in Heshuo dared to block the front. Zhang Chonghua was so stupid that he would not change the national strategy.

Liu Yan suddenly asked a question that seemed to have nothing to do with Xiliang: "Have you found no trace of Fu Hong yet?"

Sang Yu's reaction was very quick, and he knew the elegance of the sound, and said: "Fu Hong went far to the northwest, and he must have gone to Xigaoche. The Qiang and Di people in the basin will harass the Longxi boundary from time to time."

The Han Kingdom would definitely continue to expand westward. Liu Yan wondered who needed to plow all the way first, but the Fu clan didn't seem to understand the meaning, so Liu Yan should find another pioneer.
