The Invincible Sixth Prince
Chapter 1487 Planning for the West Canal
Soon, Yun Zheng saw Yu Shizhong who came hurriedly.
"I have met His Highness!"
Yu Shizhong saluted.
All in all, Yun Zheng and Yu Shizhong haven't seen each other for more than a year.
Yu Shizhong couldn't help feeling excited when they met again this time.
"No gift."
Yun Zheng raised his hand and smiled, then pointed at Qin Pu beside him, "This is the Great Theory King who you had a confrontation with."
Chimpu?
Yu Shizhong was slightly surprised, and immediately bowed to Qinpu: "Greetings, Your Majesty!"
Although he and Chinpu had fought on the battlefield, they had never met face to face.
Unexpectedly, I met this person as soon as I arrived in Gongpot.
"General Yu, we finally meet."
Qinpu looked Yu Shizhong up and down. "Last year's battle in Sakya City left a deep impression on me!"
"I was also impressed!" Yu Shizhong laughed, "To be honest with you, Your Majesty, this was the first time I lost a battle against you in the past few years."
"General Yu is joking."
Qin Pu shook his head and said, "General Yu did not lose, we lost."
Yu Shizhong shook his head and smiled, "Your Majesty, what you said really makes me ashamed..."
The two men spoke politely, and Chinpu couldn't help but secretly approve.
This person has a calm mind and well-behaved manners, and has the demeanor of a great general.
"Okay, both of you stop being polite."
Yun Zheng interrupted them with a smile and asked Yu Shizhong, "How did you get here so quickly?"
"Your Highness, is this fast?"
Yu Shizhong smiled and said, "Originally, we should have arrived two days ago, but because a group of elite troops from Xiqu demolished an important bridge when they were gathering on their way to Gongbu, we were forced to take a detour, which delayed us a bit..."
bypass?
Qinpu was slightly surprised.
He knew exactly the movements of Yu Shizhong and his army.
If we take a detour, it would probably be more than five or six hundred miles longer.
They got around here so quickly?
"You guys are going around it a little too fast!"
Qin Pu looked at Yu Shizhong meaningfully.
Yu Shizhong smiled and said, "Wherever we went through this time, it did cause some trouble to the people of Xiqu. But don't worry, Your Majesty. We only obtained supplies from the people of Xiqu and did not massacre them..."
Some trouble?
Although Yu Shizhong said it lightly, Qinpu knew in his heart that these so-called troubles must be the blood and tears of the people of Xiqu.
But now he has already surrendered and doesn't want to delve into it any further.
Since they want to occupy Xiqu, let Yu Shizhong and his men clean up the mess they created themselves!
Yun Zheng also roughly guessed something, but did not blame Yu Shizhong.
Anyway, he wanted to keep Yu Shizhong in Xiqu to maintain the stability of Xiqu, and let him clean up the mess later!
Whatever he needs, just provide him with it.
With this in mind, Yun Zheng said to Yu Shizhong: "I intend to keep you to lead your troops to guard the Western Regions, and to set up a production and construction corps in the Western Regions..."
"Western Region?"
Yu Shizhong was surprised.
"Yes, from now on, this place will be called the Western Region."
Yun Zheng nodded gently, "You take a rest first. We will call a few more people to discuss later and see how to demarcate the various areas in the Western Region. There are also some follow-up matters that need to be planned..."
Now that Xiqu has been taken down, this place naturally cannot be called Xiqu anymore.
National integration will certainly erase the original national imprints of the people in these places.
"The general understands!"
Yu Shizhong nodded heavily.
……
In the next two days, Yun Zheng gathered dozens of people to discuss the governance plan for the Western Region.
Among them were people from Daqian and people from Xiqu.
First of all, slavery must be completely abolished. The nobles in the Western Regions could only keep a small portion of the land originally held by them. The rest had to be re-counted and redistributed, and some of the privileges held by the nobles were taken back.
Second, divide the Western Regions into four states and one part.
The four prefectures are Qiangzhou, Pingzhou, Shengzhou and Ningzhou.
The original Sakya and Sippa sects were merged and still called Sakya.
This was something Yun Zheng had promised King Sakya a long time ago, and he certainly couldn't just go back on his word.
Third, the Western Region Production and Construction Corps was established, with Yu Shizhong as the temporary leader, He Dan, Xiao Dingwu and Qu Zhi as deputies, and Zhao Ji and Dan Qu temporarily serving as the left and right inspectors of the Western Regions, responsible for supervising various departments.
The entire corps has a standing strength of 100,000 troops and 500,000 auxiliary troops.
However, the primary task of both regular troops and various auxiliary troops is to open up land and build, and the first thing to ensure is self-sufficiency and not asking for help from the court.
At this stage, the generals who remain in Xiqu must be mainly capable of fighting. Once the situation becomes further stable, officials who are good at governance will be sent to take over some positions.
Fourth, the former Xiqu women were encouraged to intermarry with Daqian soldiers. Any Xiqu woman who married a Daqian soldier would receive rewards including food, land, and property.
Similarly, women from Daqian who marry men from Xiqu can also receive corresponding rewards.
But there are not many Daqian women here at the moment, so we can only wait until the subsequent population migration.
Fifth, accelerate the integration of various tribes in the Western Regions and ensure that the war in the Western Regions is completely quelled as soon as possible.
Basically, these are the five points.
Of course, these are just some general directions, and there are still many details that need to be further improved.
Everything including laws, writing, weights and measures must be unified.
Yun Zheng will definitely discuss this with Emperor Wen and court officials later, and any better plans will be conveyed to us as quickly as possible.
Everything they did was to stabilize the land of the Western Region and accelerate ethnic integration.
After deciding on the general direction, Yun Zheng called Yu Shizhong and Zhao Ji to his room separately.
"Now that the war is basically over, we need to adopt some conciliatory strategies. However, you must grasp the balance and use both kindness and severity..."
Yun Zheng explained to the two of them patiently, and they listened attentively.
After Yun Zheng finished speaking, Yu Shizhong asked tentatively: "Your Highness, regarding the Xiuluo side, do you want to…"
"Don't think about targeting Xi Luo for now."
Yun Zheng raised his hand to stop Yu Shizhong. “Digest the territory you have taken first. Don’t bite off more than you can chew. In the end, you will end up with fires everywhere! However, you can strengthen trade and exchanges with Xiuluo. In addition, you can also buy a large number of young women from Xiuluo…”
Sooner or later, they will definitely eat the meat of Xiuluo.
but not now!
The situation in the Western Regions was extremely complicated, more complicated than any other place they had conquered.
Just to stabilize the Western Regions requires a lot of energy, manpower and financial resources.
"The general understands!"
Yu Shizhong nodded heavily.
After talking to Yu Shizhong, Yun Zheng solemnly told Zhao Ji: "General Zhao, you must be a good censor. I can't say that you must be absolutely fair, but at least you can't let the people of Xiqu think that we only favor our own people and don't treat them as our own people at all..."
"I understand!"
Zhao Ji said solemnly: "I will definitely live up to the trust of Your Highness and the court!"
"With your words, I feel relieved!"
Yun Zheng smiled with satisfaction and pondered secretly in his heart.
Zhao Ji's title should be restored, and Yu Shizhong should at least be granted a title of nobility.
If we really count based on his merits, Yu Shizhong deserves the title of Duke!
But Yu Shizhong is still so young. If he is conferred the title of Duke of Chengguo now, he will probably be conferred the title of King if he makes more achievements in the future.
And people like Qu Zhi should also be granted titles.
I will mention these later.
Let the officials in the court discuss it and decide it as soon as possible!
