At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty

There are also those who do not obey, but the end is miserable. Guo Peng will never be tolerant to those who do not obey him.

If you can't deal with you for a while, don't even try to escape, someone from Guo will slow down and deal with you severely.

Seeing the tragic end of those people who were either ransacked or beheaded, many local tyrants certainly would not want to follow in their footsteps.

Man Chong followed suit, and immediately charged them without saying a word.

For example, when the Wei army quelled the foreign rebellion, they colluded with the foreigners and passed military news to the foreigners, so that the Wei army suffered losses.

Then he joined forces with the army and Yizhou Facao, dispatched the army and law enforcement teams, confiscated three local powerful families, and confiscated a large amount of gold, silver and grain from their homes.

Not only that, but also directly included more than [-] hidden households they owned that were not included in government statistics into government household registration, which suddenly increased the population of Yizhou by more than [-].

Together, these three families hid more than 1 people, and more than [-] households. It can be seen that the Haoqiang Manor swallowed and concealed the population seriously.

Man Chong did not intervene in this matter for the time being, but only questioned their family members, and even submitted a petition to Guo Peng to request that their patriarchs be beheaded on charges of disobedience.

Seeing that Man Chong had the attitude of the local officials of the Western Han Dynasty to deal with the tyrants of the Western Han Dynasty, the gentry and powerful families in central Shu were very annoyed, and immediately mobilized their political forces to try to make troubles in the court.

They are not without political power. In order to rule Yizhou, Guo Peng also gave some Yizhou people part of the central power.

But obviously, they didn't succeed, and they couldn't succeed.

After all, Yizhou was the last state to be "conquered", even if it had central power, it would not be very powerful, and Man Chong represented Guo Peng himself and the most powerful political group in the Wei Empire.

People from Yizhou went to the central government to make trouble, which is quite funny like "who under the hall sues this official".

Of course Guo is on Man Chong's side.

None of the officials in the central government who really hold the real power will help these Yizhou people to come forward.

Therefore, Guo Peng not only verbally helped, but also ordered Lejin to mobilize the army to assist Manchong in completing the implementation of the official salt and iron camp, and to deter the natives of Yizhou who refused to implement this policy.

If there is any objection, the family will be confiscated directly, the whole family will be deposed as common people, and they will move to Liangzhou to farm.

And I can't go back to my ancestral home forever, so I settled down there.

Mr. Guo is very comfortable doing this kind of thing now, and his ruling foundation and prestige are far stronger than Liu Xiu's, so he won't dare to do it because of the troubles caused by the strong and powerful people in the middle of Sichuan.

More importantly, the situation is different.

Yizhou is already the last state to implement the official operation of salt and iron, and the general trend has come.

Even the powerful families in Nanjun and Nanyang counties were forced to hand over all their iron-smelting equipment and blacksmith households to cooperate with the government's promotion of official salt and iron operations. Do you still want to do something special in Yizhou?

Don't talk about that, those who have already been victimized reacted more violently than someone from Guo when they heard that the Yizhou people resisted.

They sprayed blood on the Yizhou officials who tried to excuse some people in the court, and one by one they went to the table to impeach these Yizhou officials who were dishonest.

After the removal of the three bureaucrats in central Shu, the situation became clear.

Officials from Yizhou no longer have the guts to fight for it in the central government.

No help could be found from inside or outside. The Yizhou gentry and tyrants died down, and they had no courage.

What can they do in the face of naked power and oppression?

So they collectively handed over the blacksmith households and iron-smelting equipment, recognized the Yantie official camp, and transferred this part of the benefits to the Wei Empire.

Spend money to buy peace!

They shed blood and tears and spent money to buy Ping An.

But it was not enough. They were also forced to apportion a lot of tax tasks by Man Chong, and they were asked to bear part of the military expenditure to help the army pacify the four Nanzhong counties in the south of Yizhou.

Man Chong is a typical pushover, but he has the confidence and confidence, and some people just don't have the confidence.

So the local forces in Yizhou still admit it.

But Man Chong still didn't stop there, he had the last one left in his three axe.

In order to further divide their power and disrupt their connection with each other, Man Chong also re-divided the distribution of counties and counties in Yizhou on a large scale to attack these local snakes.

Man Chong submitted to Guo Peng, and submitted his researched suggestions to Guo Peng for review.

This suggestion was supported by Guo Peng, who was sent to Shangshutai by Guo Peng, and Shangshutai assisted Man Chong in handling this matter.

Manchong intends to divide the northern part of the original Shu County, and set up Wenshan County separately. The core area of ​​the original Shu County, the Chengdu Plain, is still Shu County.

The barbarians of the original Shu County had been conquered, the leaders were killed, and the leadership was destroyed collectively, leaving only a loose bottom, which was easy to rule, so Man Chong changed the Shu County's subordinate country to Hanjia County.

The original Guanghan County was divided into two, with Zitong County as the center in the north and Guanghan County as the center in the south.

The barbarians of the Guanghan vassal state were also wiped out. This was what Gao Lan did before, and Man Chong went to the table to change the Guanghan vassal state to Yinping County and set up a county for management.

The huge Berkshire in the Eastern Han Dynasty was divided into three parts under the rule of Liu Zhang, namely Badong County, Brazil County and Berkshire.

After Guo Peng conquered Yizhou, he placed part of Badong County under the management of Jingzhou Nanjun. Later, Guo Peng felt that Nanjun was too large, so he divided the original part of Nanjun and this part of Badong County and merged it into Yong'an County. Still under the jurisdiction of Jingzhou.

Of course, the prefect of Yong'an is one of his own.

Now the land of Samba is still there, it is still Patong County, Brazil County and Berkshire.

However, Man Chong believed that such a division model was not scientific enough, so he made the above table, advocating that the Dangqu River should be used as the boundary, that the west should belong to Brazil County, and the east should belong to Badong County, expanding Badong County and shrinking Brazil County.

Then there is Berkshire in the south. Manchong divided Berkshire into two, with Fuling County in the east and the original Berkshire in the west.

That's not counting, there are Qianwei County and Qianwei's vassal state, and they are full of favors, and Qianwei County is also divided into two.

Taking the passing Yangtze River as the dividing line, Jiangyang County was set up in the north of the Yangtze River, and Qianwei County was still in the south of the Yangtze River.

However, Qianwei's vassal state was proposed separately and changed to Zhuti County.

In this way, the counties and counties of Yizhou currently under the control of the Wei Empire were completely changed by Manchu.

The expansion from six counties to thirteen counties completely disrupted the original geographical and political structure of central Shu, and some of the original political ties and nepotism were also completely disrupted.

It means that it took Man Chong a little time to come up with a brand new Yizhou. The relatives in the original counties were divided into different counties, and their connections were forcibly severed, so that they could no longer communicate with each other. .

Politically at least, the connection has become awkward.

It's not even a county anymore, so what else can we do?

And the prefixes of some families must also be changed.

This is also a rather bad change for some families.

So rulers are always happy to change the names of local counties or change the division of regions, severing their geopolitical ties.

This is something that local tyrants do not want to see.

However, in the face of such a situation, they have no power to fight back. They can only watch Man Chong change Yizhou beyond recognition.

After Yizhou was changed beyond recognition, all the relocated counties were managed by Shangdongzhou people, which forcibly weakened the political power of Yizhou natives.

They thought that Guo moved away all the original Dongzhou people in order to give Yizhou people a Yizhou of Yizhou people, but they never thought that Guo moved away Dongzhou people just to arrange a group of people who listened to him more. People from Dongzhou come here.

To Yizhou locals, it doesn't make any difference to change your left hand to your right hand.

And now this method is used to dilute the political power that originally belonged to Yizhou natives by nearly half, greatly weakening the political power of Yizhou natives.

chapter 1031 one thousand and 41 Yong Kai's arrogance is not for nothing

For Yizhou people, after Man Chong's big move, only the four counties of Nanzhong remained intact.

But the four counties of Nanzhong are tantamount to tasteless to them.

In the four counties of Nanzhong, it is true that only local tyrants, southern barbarians and Han people live together.

There are only local tyrants, and there are no reliable gentry. Their status has always been awkward, and they have never been seen by the Han elite living in the Chengdu Plain.

Therefore, the status of the four Nanzhong counties in Yizhou is not as good as air.

That's literally less than air.

Because of the presence of miasma.

The traffic is bad, the development is seriously underdeveloped, and there are a lot of virgin forests and miasma. For northerners, it is very dangerous.

When General Fubo Ma Yuan fought in Nanzhong, he died of this terrible miasma.

But in fact, miasma is not poisonous gas, nor is it like the ancients said that there is a problem with the air in the south. The actual disease-causing miasma is mostly caused by mosquitoes flying.

A large number of mosquitoes with Plasmodium falciparum gather and fly together. Because of their small size and large number, they look like a cloud of black gas from a distance.

This is easily regarded as poisonous [miasma] by the ancients who did not understand the principle.

If you are exposed to this kind of miasma, you will definitely suffer from serious diseases due to mosquito bites. Therefore, the ancients thought that the southern forests were full of poisonous gas, and they were afraid of it and dared not approach it.

However, Wei Jun's southward movement used a method that could solve this problem.

In the process of attacking Shanyue with fierce fire oil tanks, Wei Jun realized the method of using fire to destroy forests and open up wasteland. It can not only kill the Shanyue bandits who are good at hiding themselves, but also open the way.

So Wei Jun went all the way south, using this way of opening up wasteland all the way.

Burning all the way, from the coast of the Yangtze River to the northern part of Lingnan, and burning all the way.

First burn, then fight.

The fierce flame happens to be the greatest enemy of this [miasma], and the subsequent immigration development is even more natural enemy of miasma.

Agricultural production requires drainage and land plowing, which directly destroys the environment in which those mosquitoes live.

Without the terrible mosquitoes and poisonous and harmful plants, there will naturally be no miasma.

Therefore, the Wei army in Jingzhou and Yangzhou was not greatly threatened by [Miasma] during the process of going south.

This policy was also used by Zhang He and Huang Zhong on the battlefield to consolidate the victories of Yuexi and Cangjun counties.

The two used the tactics of arson and burning to deforestation and land reclamation on a large scale, which not only deterred the eager Nanzhong barbarians, but also burned a lot of living space.

Despite this, most of the four counties in Nanzhong are still not under the control of Wei Jun.

Yuexi County and Cangzhou County, as well as Yongchang County and Yizhou County further south.

Yuexi County and Cangyang County are being intimidated by Zhang Yun and Huang Zhong's garrison respectively. This is also the little remaining achievement of Liu Zhang being forced to develop southward, and Wei Jun has taken over all of them.

In this way, the results of the battle in the north of Yizhou were successfully consolidated by the Wei army, and the Wei army sharpened their swords and moved southward.

At this point, the various forces in Nanzhong also smelled something strange, and began to become very nervous and a little at a loss.

They sent people to the north to inquire about news, but they couldn't get any news except the news of Wei Jun's rectification.

The four counties of Nanzhong are remote and have never been valued by the people in the north, but it doesn't matter, this does not prevent them from becoming a small circle and small society, and the enclosure is self-sustaining.

Haoqiang is a special product of the Western Han Dynasty and the Eastern Han Dynasty. It is available in the north and naturally in the south. It will not be absent because of its remote location.

If it was located in a remote place, there would be none, and Mr. Guo would not be troubled by the large number of powerful families in Youzhou, and would even use the hands of the Gongsun family to eradicate some of the powerful families in Youzhou.

It can only be said that there are few or no gentry in remote places.

There is a lot of room for politics, but not much room for economics. However, it is obviously easier to deal with the powerful, as long as they are killed, unlike the gentry, who have to worry about public opinion.

The most famous powerful family in the four counties of Nanzhong was named Yong.

The history of this family is very long, and the source can be traced back to the early Western Han Dynasty, Yongchi, a fellow villager of Liu Bang, Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty.

The Yong family in Yizhou County is the descendant of Yong Chi.

In a sense, Yongchi was also Liu Bang's hero in establishing the Han Dynasty, but he once betrayed Liu Bang, and Liu Bang hated him very much.

It's just that this person is really lucky.

Liu Bang once made his subordinates panic because he did not reward the heroes in time, and some people even conspired to rebel again. Liu Bang was very panicked and asked Zhang Liang for advice.

Zhang Liang suggested to Liu Bang, he said to award a person you dislike very much first, so that when others see that you can even reward someone you hate so much, they will definitely get rewards, so that group of people will not worry. .

Liu Bang thought, yes, this is the truth.

Then he sealed the very annoying Yong Chi who had betrayed him.

In this way, Yongchi became a lucky potted plant, and won the wonderful treatment of avoiding death-he himself is the gold medal for avoiding death awarded to everyone by Liu Bang.

Of course, the one who deserved to die was still going to die, but Yong Chi, who was supposed to die, got a good death.

In fact, someone Guo still suspects that this is a group talk.

Later, although the Yong family lost their title, the family passed it on, shrunk to the border of the empire, and the big bosses in the central government were out of sight and out of mind, so they survived.

For the Yong family, this might be a good thing.

How many political families that were once all-powerful have been wiped out within hundreds of years, with no children and grandchildren, but the Yong family has been able to preserve itself and has continued to this day.
