In the General's Mansion, Xu Ping listened quietly to Zhong Shiheng's discussion on the situation where various ethnic groups came to visit the Proton these days, occasionally.

After Zhong Shiheng finished speaking, Xu Ping asked: "This is also the first time in Qinzhou. Is there anything special?"

Zhong Shiheng hesitated for a moment before saying, "I heard from someone from Fanluo who is subordinate to the court that the court rewards the protons in Qinzhou City are too much, which makes many clan accounts feel uneasy. These protons were given names, read and read, and learned the etiquette of the Han family. Once the court lets them back into the clan, the clan leader will not care about them. Jieshuai, forgive the officials for taking the liberty. In my opinion, Jieshuai is afraid that he will really have the intention to put them back to fight for power. This will indeed be beneficial to the court, but it is more likely to cause uneasiness to Fanluo, which belongs to Qinzhou, so as not to cause trouble. Now Dangxiang has rebelled and has shaken Fanluo's morale again."

Xu Ping looked at Zhong Shiheng and suddenly smiled: "How do you know that I want these protons to go back and fight for power?"

"If this is not the case, why should I put so much thought on them? The Fan Qiang has their own customs, so they can do it."

Xu Ping shook his head: "Prime Minister, it's wrong for you to think like this. If we are my country and my people, we will do our part in the court, so we should educate the people under our rule and guide people to be kind. Even if it is a foreign country, the people under the court should not be transformed. Let them follow the habits of their own clans and govern affairs, but they are just a stopgap solution. As long as it is possible, they should educate and change customs. I don't have that power, and do things that are good, but I won't do anything that is not good. These protons, now let them read, read, train and train discipline, and change their customs, just let them be truly the people under the court. Unless the Qian Qiang tribe is asked to pay attention to the account, the general's mansion will not let them return to the clan, so let them be a good citizen in Qinzhou."

Zhong Shiheng couldn't help but be stunned. After a while, he said: "If Jieshuai thinks like this, why should he put in such a hard time? Let these protons stay in the quarantine as before, except for spending some money and food, save much trouble!"

Xu Ping said seriously: "Don't be afraid of trouble as an official. Just think about relaxation. It's better to go home and be a wealthy man! We are the chief minister of Qin. The court has given people advice in the ministry. How can we not do it? Qinzhou has many foreign countries and people are unstable. We can't temporarily take them into territories and turn them into Xia, but these protons can do it. Looking at the big things, starting in small things, and judging them. This matter has nothing to do with the transformation of Qinzhou into Xia, which is just a proton. Mencius said that those who only heard that Xia transformed into Xia have never heard of those who changed into Xia. The lands in the west of Hehuang and He has been Han for thousands of years, and Xia has changed into the barbarians for more than a hundred years, and it has never been heard of. We should change into Xia, because the virtues of the customs of Xia, the virtues of the barbarians, the virtues of the barbarians, the virtues of the barbarians, the virtues of the villains, the virtues of the villains, the virtues of the villains, the grass of the villains, the grass of the villains, can we set an example first? "

Zhong Shiheng didn't know whether what Xu Ping said was true or false, and he didn't know what to say for a moment. In his impression, Xu Ping was not a corrupt scholar who only reads sages. The principles in the books were useful if they were useful, and if they were useless, they pretended that they had never seen them. Why did he really use Confucian principles to govern the place this time?

But I didn't know that Xu Ping wanted to turn razed into Xia in the west of Hehuang and Hehuang, but he really wanted to do this. For the court, it was only a temporary measure. Otherwise, the land that had been opened to the outside world in the early Tang Dynasty was not counted, but also a large number of Han lands in the original frontier since ancient times were role models. Hehuang in the northwest, Hexi, Youyan in the northeast, Liaozhou, Yingzhou, and even the northern part of Hedong were Han lands since the Qin and Han Dynasties, and it had been completely Hu's place by the end of the Tang Dynasty. The Qin State made its fortune hundreds of miles southwest, but at this time it was already the hinterland of the Fan Qiang.

The policy of the surrounding barbarians in the early Song Dynasty was to "put it outside the limit and keep it without any discussion". The land of the transformation was not under the rule of the emperor, and the Qiang was not the people of the emperor, so it was enough to maintain a nominal orthodoxy. Dangxiang's rebellion showed the danger of this policy. Once conditions permit, these land of the transformation became a major concern of the court. In the past, the war between Zhao Jiqian, Zhao Deming and the Song Dynasty was just a frontier conflict. They did not directly rebel and proclaim themselves emperors like Yuan Hao, which was fundamentally different from this time.

Zhong Shiheng was a good frontier general, but he did not realize that the current war was different from the past. After decades of rest and recuperation in the early Song Dynasty, the Song Dynasty slowed down from the wars of the Five Dynasties, and the surrounding barbarian regimes also slowed down. They were about to begin a new round of biting the Central Plains. Without a political solution to the Qiang Dangxiang of the Northwest, defeating Yuan Hao alone could not completely solve the problem. A madman would appear decades later.

Xu Ping certainly had the idea of ​​using the protons in Qinzhou to influence the surrounding Fanluo, but it was by no means letting the protons return to his tribe to seize power. What Xu Ping wanted to completely abolish the tribe system, how could he do this in one go?

As long as the tribal system is still there, theoretically, there is a possibility that an outstanding leader will be quickly integrated. Its rise is also booming, and its demise is suddenly a special feature of the tribal system. After a long period of stability and good external conditions, a leader will be quickly decided to expand externally. Dangxiang started from Zhao Jiqian and had decades of internal integration. Although he fought several battles with Song, it did not hurt his bones. When Yuanhao accumulated strength. After releasing the decades of power accumulated by Dangxiang, they will naturally be honest, but they will continue to cause trouble in the future.

If you want long-term stability, changing Xia through the barbarians is a path that you have to take. Temporary compromise can only bring temporary peace, and the accumulated contradictions will one day break out more violently.

Seeing that Zhong Shiheng was a little confused, Xu Ping said to him: "Prime Minister, this time the emperor asked me to go to Qinzhou, respect it to a high position and give it to great power. It is not to let me temporarily appease the Qiang people and seek a temporary calmness. Instead, the county and county, including the land, so that this area will be placed under the rule of the court from then on. To do this, we can only walk on the great road, and those little tricks should be temporarily put away, not that they cannot be used, but that they should try not to use it. The proton studied in the work camp and waited for a year and a half, and the people who had achieved success in real learning would be able to use it as much as possible. They either went to various affairs or went to the army. From then on, they would have nothing to do with their tribe. Of course, their family members were still family members, but they were no longer the people of the foreign land."

Zhong Shiheng always believed that Xu Ping wanted to coach the protons. When the time was right, he returned to his tribe to seize power and helped the court control the surrounding foreign lands. Unexpectedly, Xu Ping did not plan so. He still didn't understand what the use of doing this. He spent so much energy on these protons just for the mouths of one or two thousand people? Although Qinzhou is remote in the northwest, the number of households under his rule is tens of thousands, so why not one or two thousand people?

Xu Ping's face calmed down and said to Zhong Shiheng: "Prime Minister, you can't just stare at the one or two thousand protons, but think more about the camp where they are in charge. In order to train these protons, let them read and read, and learn Chinese customs, we arranged nearly a thousand people in the camp, including officials, generals and soldiers. In the process of training these protons, these people also summarized the rules and learned experience, and then they would be familiar with this kind of thing in the future, and it would be much easier."
