"At the beginning, the imperial court also appointed the great chief of the barbarians, but the barbarians are still difficult to tame and often harass the border, so this method treats the symptoms but not the root cause."
Chen Ziang shook his head and rejected the suggestion of the canonization proposed by the chief of the Ministry of War Li Qiye.
Because this method does not incorporate the barbarian region into the territory of the empire, but turns it into a vassal region of the empire.
In fact, the empire has no actual rule over the barbarian areas. Once the empire weakens, they may break away at any time and pose a threat to the empire.
Chen Ziang's meaning is very simple, that is, he hopes to solve the problem of the western border once and for all.
"Looking back, you discuss a charter, select sites to build several big cities in the barbarian area, send troops to garrison, and send officials to govern and educate."
"For the nobles of the barbarians, the headmen and others all migrated to the vicinity of the imperial capital, and a place was allocated for them to live in, and they were not allowed to return to the barbarian area for life."
"For those ordinary people who are barbarians who are willing to obey the rule of the empire, register them, and let them farm or graze according to the policy of the empire. The empire will give preferential treatment. Those who are unwilling to submit to the rule of the empire will be expelled and those who resist will be killed!"
Chen Ziang's meaning is very simple, that is to completely incorporate the barbarian areas into the territory of the empire, instead of simply turning them into vassal areas of the empire, but to actually rule them.
"Your Majesty, the barbarian area is barren and barren, the climate is harsh, and the roads are far away. I am worried that no one is willing to take a post there."
Seeing that Chen Ziang was going to build a city in the barbarian area and bring it into the territory of the empire, Qin An, the Chief of Staff, also expressed his concern.
He knew that once the empire wanted to bring the barbarian region into its territory, many people in the local barbarian tribe would disagree.
For quite a long period of time, the empire will need to send a large number of troops to guard the barbarian areas to divert the energy and money of the empire.
At the same time, it can be said that it is a barren land, even if it is built a city and sent to manage it, no one is willing to go there.
"This is very simple, there must be a brave man under a heavy reward."
"Anyone who is willing to serve in the barbarian region will have a salary twice that of the other provinces, for a period of three years, and priority will be given to promotion. The same applies to the troops stationed there, and the salary will be twice that of the provinces in the interior"
After hearing what Chen Ziang said, Qin An, the head of the Ministry of Officials, couldn't say anything, because Chen Ziang's will to include him in the territory was very firm.
"For specific details, your ministries will hold a joint meeting to finalize specific implementation measures." Chen Ziang ordered.
"The minister waits to obey."
Qin An, Li Qiye and others also looked at each other and agreed.
Barbarian areas have never been valued by anyone in the past dynasties, so the court is not willing to waste money and food to conquer.
But now Chen Ziang is going against the norm. Although they don't understand that they want to bring the barbarian area into the empire's territory, they can only carry it out.
"Your Majesty, the triumphant team has arrived."
When Chen Ziang was talking with the ministers about bringing the barbarian area into the empire's territory, a large group of people appeared on the horizon in the distance.
This group of people was Gu Xingteng, head of the Seventh Banner of Public Security, and others who rushed back to the imperial capital from the western provinces all night long.
In addition to Gu Xingteng, the head of the Security Banner, he also came back with veterans belonging to various banner regiments of the Security Corps.
This batch of veterans returned to the imperial capital with escorts. After completing this last mission, they will take off their military uniforms and become ordinary people again.
After all, they have been fighting in the army for many years. According to the withdrawal mechanism of the Far East Empire, they can finally go home, marry wives and have children, and live a stable life.
More than 6,000 soldiers marched along the main road to the imperial capital, and the barbarian chief and others were detained in the prison car.
When Gu Xingteng and the others captured the barbarian chief Tatar, they saw that the other party was willing to surrender, so they gave them generous treatment, only surveillance, and no custody.
But later, because they trusted the barbarian chieftain Tatar too much, he secretly sent someone to summon the barbarian tribe for rescue, which almost wiped out Gu Xingteng and his army.
After that incident, the treatment of the barbarian chief and others also plummeted, and now they are directly locked in the prison car.
"Heading, everyone cheer up! March forward in four columns!"
From a distance, you can see the hero of the imperial capital.Gu Xingteng, the head of the Seventh Banner of Public Security riding on a horse, also knew that Chen Ziang would greet him in person a few days ago.
In order not to compromise the military prestige of their security forces, he also ordered again to get everyone to cheer up.
Following Gu Xingteng's order, the more than 6,000 soldiers of the Security Corps who returned with them also held their heads high and marched toward the imperial capital with sonorous and forceful steps.
More than 6,000 soldiers detained the barbarian chief and others, slowly approaching the area, and soon greeted the welcoming crowd.
The barbarian chief also claimed to have seen the world, but when he saw the people in the imperial capital, he also showed fear.
"The Qinghe army is victorious!"
"The Qinghe army is victorious!"
Seeing Gu Xingteng and the others approaching slowly, the people on both sides of the road also became excited, raising their arms and shouting.
After all, seeing that their empire's army won the battle and captured those disheveled barbarians alive, they also felt unprecedented pride and pride.
"Long live the empire!"
"Long live Your Majesty!"
In response to the cheers of the people, more than 6,000 soldiers of the Qinghe Army also made uniform voices.
In the cheers of each other, the team walked slowly. The further they went, the more people cheered on both sides of the road.
Seeing the barbarian Great Chief Tatar and others in the prison car, the common people pointed and pointed, which made the Great Chief and others feel panic and apprehension, and they were no longer calm as before.
Soon, Gu Xingteng and the others arrived at the west gate. The team stopped, and Gu Xingteng got off his horse. After saluting outside the west gate, he began to present prisoners to Chen Ziang.
"Gu Xingteng, the head of the Seventh Banner of Public Security, was ordered to detain the prisoners of war, and the barbarian chief Tatar and others dedicated them to His Majesty!"
After Gu Xingteng's words fell, cheers erupted all around, and all the people were boiling.
It is of great significance to know that it is of great significance to dedicate the barbarian chief Tatar as a captive to the emperor.
Seeing the barbarian prisoners of war pulled to the front by the prison cart with disheveled hair, Chen Ziang felt that they were not much different from the Far Easterners except that they were darker and tougher.
"The barbarians invaded our borders, slaughtered our people, and disturbed our western borders. It is really a blessing for the empire to have our brave and skilled imperial soldiers defending our home and country, and to capture the barbarian chief and others alive"
Chen Ziang, the emperor of the empire, also delivered a speech eloquently on the West Tower, which won thunderous applause.
"Although the great barbarian chief's crimes are unforgivable, the empire is benevolent and unwilling to cause more killings. I decided to send him to the outskirts of the imperial capital to build roads to atone for his crimes!"
Now that Chen Ziang is the emperor of the empire, if he wants to kill the barbarian chief, it is just a matter of one sentence.
However, in order to avoid killing the great chief to provoke a wider range of retaliation and resistance in the barbarian area, he decided to temporarily keep the barbarian chief and punish him with hard labor.
In this way, he not only won the title of a benevolent and wise king, but also made the barbarians feel grateful to him. After all, he did not kill their chief, paving the way for the subsequent occupation and rule of the barbarian area. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
