"Your Majesty, I didn't beg you. Today..." tuobaxiu was helpless and firm. He kept kneeling and said, "please let go of my people."
Today, it has been a month since Tuoba shiyijian fled again. It is hard to tell what the situation is in the depths of the grassland. Tuoba Shijun, the southern supervisor of Tuoba Dai state, brought a large number of people close to the Han controlled area four days ago.
The tribe brought by Tuoba Shijun should be 70000 people. They stopped dozens of miles away from the Han Army controlled area and sent someone to contact the Han Army border general. It was said that those tribes were the dowry of the German imperial concubine of the Han state.
The royal families on the grassland usually choose some tribes as dowry, coupled with a certain number of horses, cattle and sheep. The more powerful the royal family is, the more generous the dowry will be when marrying a woman. They will even marry elite armed men to increase their voice in their husband's family.
There are also corresponding customs in the Central Plains. For example, great nobles and aristocratic families marry legitimate women. Some families who make friends will marry Teng concubines. It is common to marry servants, maidens and warriors. They will also prepare enough gold, silver, jewelry and silk.
When Tuoba Xiu got married, he brought some of his followers. Tuoba Shi Yijian and Tuoba Gu also sent some dowries. However, at that time, there was a state of Shijie Zhao between the two sides. Those dowries actually stopped in the grassland and didn't go south.
Murong Yan attacked Tuoba Dai again in 344 ad. after Tuoba Shi Yijian discussed with Liu Yan and Tuoba Xiu, the dowry was taken back by Tuoba royal family and never returned.
Tuobaxiu looked up at Liu Yan slightly and asked, "can they... Work in the Han territory instead of going to the battlefield of Liangguo or the battlefield of Yan?"
In fact, Liu Yan and Tuoba Xiu knew the news in different order. It was Liu Yan who received the report from the front line first. After two days, Tuoba Xiu learned the news from some noble women's relatives.
For the grassland victory, the Taiwei office must inform the whole country to boost morale, that is, tuobaxiu is in the deep palace.
There have long been discussions about what to do with the prisoners of war. Some suggestions are like killing all the people in the pit. Some say they are to be used as cannon fodder, and some are sent back to China for labor. Among them, the sound of being used as cannon fodder is relatively loud.
It is controversial whether the people brought by Tuoba Shijun are considered prisoners of war. The Central Plains has been ruled by the Hu nationality for decades. Not only the Han culture has affected the Hu nationality, but also some Hu cultures have affected the people in the Central Plains, not to mention the custom that the husband's family should not interfere with his wife's dowry in Chinese culture.
The husband's is the husband's, the wife's is the wife's, and the public is the public. In fact, it was very clear before the Southern Song Dynasty perished. During the two Song Dynasties, when Zhu Cheng's Neo Confucianism rose, many things against customs occurred.
For example, a sister-in-law took out her dowry to support her brother-in-law in the imperial examination. Her brother-in-law failed in the examination many times, and her sister-in-law's savings were spent. Her sister-in-law no longer supported her brother-in-law, and it became an original sin to be abused by a group of scholars.
In another example, a woman married someone with a huge dowry. Someone idled away on weekdays, did not do business, and only spent his wife's property. The latter wife couldn't stand divorce. According to the law of the Song Dynasty, it should be a peaceful divorce of property division. The government did judge it that way, but scholars began to scold and ignore his husband's idleness, Only scold the woman who can't stand her husband's virtue.
What's more absurd is that a woman also married with a huge dowry, and then she was poisoned by her mother-in-law and brother-in-law. The woman's family sued the government. The government found out that she was poisoned, but could not find the murderer. The woman's family was angry and helpless and wanted to get the dowry back, but the family, including the husband, was fooling around. The husband also mobilized his classmates to control public opinion. Although the government finally decided to return the dowry, it had an extremely bad impact on the society.
In other words, scholars often manipulate 1 control 1 society 1 society 1 society 1 public opinion 1 theory, which starts after the prevalence of Zhu Cheng's Neo Confucianism, regardless of what the facts are, the public opinion 1 theory manipulated and controlled by 1 must not be regarded as facts.
Although the Central Plains in 347 AD had been ruled by the Hu people for decades, some etiquette, customs and social rules had not been destroyed. If it was recognized that the people brought by Tuoba Shijun were Tuoba Xiu's dowry, whether it was Chinese customs or grassland customs, those people could not be regarded as prisoners of war. According to the customs, Tuoba Xiu decided what to do.
Liu Yan has too many things to deal with. For the time being, he hasn't included the matter of Tuoba Shijun. He doesn't know what news Tuoba Xiu heard. Facing such a scene suddenly, he is both stunned and helpless.
"Show..." Liu Yan thought about the wording, helped Tuoba show up and said, "the event is not conclusive."
More than 80000 people, including Tuoba Shijun, have been disarmed and have been monitored into Daijun. For the time being, they are under custody in batches, but they are really not sure what will be done.
"King..." Tuo baxiu insisted, "please look at the love I've been serving carefully. Promise me?"
Many things will certainly change in the freshmen of the Han Dynasty, especially some special events can not be done in full accordance with the previous etiquette and customs.
Tuoba Shijun brought more than 80000 Tuoba Xianbei people. Although there are a large number of old and weak women and children, there are probably more than 10000 people who can fight with weapons. In order to remove the alien threat in the Han Dynasty, there can be no individual case. It should be treated equally if there is a threat.
"My concubine doesn't interfere with the king's use of troops, and the killing on the battlefield will never interfere, but they... They have..." tuobaxiu said and knelt down again, but he was held by Liu Yan's powerful arm. Her eyes were full of tears: "brother, those people have been completely frightened and will not pose a threat to the big man."
Liu Yan's lips moved, but he didn't make a sound after all.
The state of Han had a clear grasp of Tuoba shiyijian's whereabouts. Tuoba shiyijian's group fled to the east from the northern border of southern desert. It was obvious that they wanted to go to Murong Yan state.
In addition to Tuoba shiyijian's taking people to Murong Yan state, a considerable number of tribes of Tuoba generation state go to Xianbei grassland. Except for the group brought by Tuoba Shijun, which is not easy to define, there are still scattered tribes who take the initiative to surrender to the Han state.
Judging from the overall situation, most of the southern territory of Tuoba Dai country is in the hands of the Han Army, the grassland in the west is almost emptied, and the central part is repeatedly attacked by Xie AI's army. Only the East and northeast can live in peace.
The territory of the Tuoba Kingdom has changed greatly, and the population has decreased rapidly. In almost two months of military action, the Han Army has probably wiped out more than 100 tribes, and there are no fewer Tuoba Xianbei people who died in the migration to avoid the invasion of the Han army. Guess the reduction of the Tuoba Kingdom, it is close to 200000 or 300000?
Most of a country's territory fell, and almost half of its population was lost in a very short time. More than half of a life was lost. It is no exaggeration to say that unless there is a huge strategic mistake on the side of the Han country, it is inevitable for the Tuoba generation country to become Tuoba Xianbei again. The military action of Han did not stop. Finally, whether Tuoba Xianbei could exist as a nation is a big problem.
"Tuoba Shijun's handling... I'm not easy to interfere. It's just to keep his life for your sake." Liu Yan can say false words to comfort him, but he chose to tell the truth: "those members of the Ministry will be your dowry, but they will not live together. They will move to the inland confluence for resettlement. The resettlement site will be used as your manor. Men and women of school age need to perform corvee and military service according to the laws of the Han Dynasty..."
The news Tuoba got before the show must be very bad, so that Liu Yan's promise was a look of gratitude. He kept saying, "I understand, what I know... There will be no Tuoba Tiefu department in the future, only big men and people."
Tiefu tribe is not only a tribe that marries Hu women, but also a tribe that the grassland royal family marries. It is also a special tribe that maintains independence.
The fief is different from the fief. The fief is a subsidiary fief of the title. The fief has nothing to do with the title, but only with the favor of the king. At the same time, some related taxes and other things between the two are also different.
When Liu Yan heard that sentence "only big men and people" was extremely satisfied, he still felt unable to laugh or cry.
The state of Han has always been doing things about national integration. It does not resist integrating Hu people other than Jie people into the big family of Han people, but it should take its own initiative to integrate, not Hu people as the active party. However, it is not easy for the Hu people to integrate into the Han people. Being able to speak fluent Chinese, wearing Han clothes, acting and thinking in line with Han customs are only the premise. The most important thing is to obtain the enemy's head on the battlefield.
Tuobaxiu directly jumped his people over so many stages and became Han people. After that, he looked at Liu Yan with praying eyes.
"This..." Liu Yan is not a ruthless person who is hard-hearted to his women, but he is not a person who unconditionally agrees. He said, "I can only delay for one year at most. If they don't take the initiative to sinicize, I can't delay any more."
Some things can use the word dragging formula, but there is no place without rules. The reason why a special case is a special case is that the number of times is very small. Once it is more, it will no longer be a special case. It is to break the rules. The ruler should maintain and stick to the established rules, not to break it.
"Then... Can the king transfer people?" Tuobaxiu didn't want to push too far. He added, "or let my concubine pay for it?"
"If you have less money, you can take it from me." Liu Yan should still be reserved. The fewer things he can do personally, the better. More is not to show authority. On the contrary, the king with insufficient authority will do everything himself: "I have to do it. You clean up your makeup and go to the queen."
Tuobaxiu retreated with a deep salute and turned around at the door. She has been very happy to achieve such results, not only because she found that Liu Yan's love for herself has not decreased, but also because she can protect some people.
The strength and strength of the Han nation are indisputable. Catching the Jie people all the time is endless killing. It can be imagined that it will be sooner or later for the Jie people in the radiation area of the Han nation to be killed. There are people of the Jie nationality as the best example. No one is afraid that they will become the target that must be eliminated by the Han state.
The reason why the Jie people want to be exterminated is that what makes the Han people hate so much is not the key. The key is that a nation really wants to die, which makes the countries and nations around the Han country not only panic, but tremble with fear.
"Really wronged my sister." Cui Wan is embroidering. The clothes in her hand are for the newborn baby. With a sincere smile on her face, she said, "normally, my sister's dowry should be decided by herself, but the timing of their arrival was too subtle, and the king had to do that."
"To make Jiang say, the military has too much control." Xie Daokai was half lying eating melon seeds and adjusting his posture to make himself more comfortable before he continued: "the king should not be so used to the military, especially the Hussars general ran min."
Xie Daoyi will shoot at ran min, who is south of the Yangtze River. Few people have a good impression of Ran min. what is more relevant is that ran Min has bullied Xie an recently.
The Han Army's military operations in the depths of the grassland continued, and the invasion of Zhang's Liangguo also entered the final stage of preparation. It would invade on a large scale only waiting for the ice and snow to melt.
Xie an rushed back to Guanzhong after reporting his work. The operation of invading Zhang Liangguo has begun. Apart from the preparation of military materials, it is to sow discord within Zhang Liangguo.
There is no shortage of preparations to invade a country. The military supplies required must be calculated in large quantities. The military equipment Xie an requested from the center was delayed in the theater in the charge of Ran min, and even some corvees that should be reported were temporarily transferred by the shogunate of the Hussars general.
"The Hussars general is not the one we and other women can arrange." Cui Wan looked at Xie Daoyi very seriously and warned: "it's already her mother's business. Don't chew your tongue until you have to take care of it."
Xie Daoyi immediately showed an aggrieved expression and severely ate melon seeds.
Are there any melon seeds in 347? The ancients mostly ate melon seeds, which may have existed in prehistory. The unearthed objects can be seen in the tombs of the spring and Autumn period and the Warring States period.
"Come on, my sister has eaten too much melon seeds. You should drink more water." Sang Miao came over with a bad smile and said teasingly, "was he scolded by the king?"
"He really scolded me..." the grievances on Xie Daokai's face came and went quickly, and changed into a laughing expression: "but he didn't pat people's ass as before.", I mean, I'm not treated like a child at all.
Zhang Lan immediately covered her mouth and smiled. What she didn't notice was that the needle in her hand accidentally stabbed her lips. Immediately from laughter to pain. Of course, her wheezing pain immediately attracted everyone's attention. The female officials and maids waiting next to her were very nervous to approach the examination. They found that they only stabbed the bleeding beads, and soon the blood stopped.
"If you're pregnant, how can you spank? If you spank after giving birth, you'd better continue to spank." Tuo baxiu joked: "but the king likes your poems very much. Maybe when you want to be spanked, the king won't spank."
There was a burst of laughter in the room immediately
