Quickly defeat the refugees in Jingxian County, giving a great shock to the surrounding forces.
The people who were still sneaking around outside Sishui Castle before were now gone.
Wei Shan led the Guduo soldiers and donkey and mule cavalry to appear outside the county. Although there were only more than a thousand people, they frightened the whole city into imposing a martial law.
After knowing the purpose of their visit, Jingxian County obediently sent more than 20 pigs and more than a dozen mules to reward the "rebels".
Wei Shan also didn't mind the lack of things. While sending people back, he also "visited" surrounding counties with arms.
The harvest is quite abundant, no matter how much the big or small counties give, otherwise the mature crops in the fields will suffer.
Donkeys, mules, pigs, rags and rags, Wei Shan didn't pick anything, he wanted everything, and brought them all back to Black Cloud Mountain.
And Heiyun Mountain didn't take it for nothing. It sent troops to help them wipe out the bandits and water bandits around them, solving their worries.
There is a harmonious scene in Xingyang.
Discipline in Heiyun Mountain is quite strict. Li Yue strictly ordered not to trample crops or harm the people. Anyone who disobeys the order will be punished by military law.
No one dares to step beyond the thunder pool.
The soldiers concentrated on suppressing the bandits and achieved remarkable results.
And the people in Xingyang territory praised him.
The only disharmony is that Mi County and Shang Shang in the south don't give much face.
He actually ignored Wei Shan.
Gao Gao is the county where Xuanyuan Mountain is located.
With a larger population and stronger strength, a thousand men and horses cannot threaten them.
Mi County is located in the shallow hilly area of western Henan. It is surrounded by mountains on the south, north and west, with crisscrossing hills and valleys. There are more than 800 large and small peaks and hills. It is the gateway from northwest Huaixi to the Central Plains, and its geographical environment is even worse than that of Baiyun Mountain. generous.
There are many mountains, there are many unruly people, and the people are also quite tough.
Wei Shan's thousand "step cavalry" were turned away and returned without success.
In the past fifteen days, more than 400 livestock were "rewarded" from various counties and Wubao, mostly donkeys and mules. However, compared with the things seized from bandits and water bandits, they seemed extremely stingy.
A total of more than 550 donkeys and mules, 57 horses, more than 3,000 stones of grain, and more than 4,000 people were obtained.
This expanded the "cavalry" in Heiyun Mountain to 600 cavalry.
There were also more than a thousand broken knives, rusty spears and armor. Li Yue asked the blacksmith to recast them all into bones and maces.
The population of the mountain swelled to more than 17,000 people.
And most of them are young and strong, the old and the weak are eliminated in the harsh living environment.
"The newcomers must not all be the general's subjects, otherwise the old people in Black Cloud Mountain will be dissatisfied and their hearts will be scattered." Xin Can took the initiative to suggest.
The older a person gets, the more he understands human nature, and the more bad water there is in his stomach.
"Does Mr. Xin have a good plan?" Li Yue suspected that the refugees in Jing County attacked him, probably because of his instigation.
"We can set up a three-class civil system and try our best to observe their hearts and minds. The first class is the people, the second class is the common people, and the third class is the children." Xin Can shook his head, with a thin figure and gray hair. , too much like a dog-headed strategist.
"What's the difference?"
"Subjects are the direct lineage and headquarters of the general. They can serve in the army and politics, study and practice martial arts, and receive 70% of the land tax. Common people are people who actively serve the general. They can join the army and fight, but cannot be general officers. They receive 70% of the land tax. Eighty percent of the children are captives, bandits, water thieves, and wandering thieves. These people are a mixture of dragons and snakes. If they are absorbed rashly, there may be disaster." Xin Can is old, but he is articulate.
These words indeed reveal the current shortcomings of Heiyun Mountain.
Just like Zhao Guang back then, he had absorbed so many people, but how many people actually obeyed his orders?
And this hierarchical system was not his first.
As early as the Shile period, there was a "national people" system. The Qiang, Di, Xiongnu, Xianbei, Wuhuan and "six barbarians" who moved inland were the minions. However, the Han people were under the "national people" and "six barbarians" and became the objects of oppression and plunder...
"Great kindness!" Li Yue thought about it briefly and knew the benefits.
Things that are too easy to get will not be cherished.
As for the newly recruited refugees, bandits, etc., there are many who harbor evil intentions. If they are absorbed without discernment, they will definitely become disasters in the future.
When Xin Can saw that Li Yue was so obedient to good deeds, he knew everything and said, "Children will be common people for ten years, and common people will be common people for ten years. Among them, those who are outstanding and meritorious can be promoted to common people in advance."
Without hierarchy, there is no cohesion and no sense of superiority. Why should these enemies be treated the same as the old members of Black Cloud Mountain after they are defeated?
This approach is not only suitable for now, but also for the future.
The Xiongnu, Qiang Di, Xianbei, etc. in the north can directly become children in the future.
Children are actually slaves.
Li Yue immediately discussed the details with Xin Can. Xin Can had more things in his stomach than Zhou Qian.
Zhou Qian's strength lies in hard work, while Director Xin Can's strength lies in planning, especially management. He has many good ideas. Li Yue benefited a lot from their conversation.
Every era has its own rules and order, and things from later generations may not adapt to this era.
And Xin Can understands the rules of this era. Although he is not a king's assistant at the level of Xun Yu and Zhuge Wuhou, he is still a qualified assistant talent.
It's a pity that I'm a little older.
But being older also has the advantage of being older and having more experience.
In official matters, Li Yue had no airs and listened carefully to Xin Can's opinions. The two parties had a pleasant conversation.
"Shi Hu and his son are cruel and unkind, and their country will not last long. Within ten years, disaster will occur. Within Xiaoqiang, Xingyang is located at the strategic point of east, west, north and south. It is a place where force can be used. The general is very powerful and has great potential. One day he will be able to control the territory south of the river. If the emperor wants to welcome the Jin Dynasty, the general will leave his name in Qing history!" Xin Can shook his head and said.
However, Li Yue felt uncomfortable hearing these words.
Can the Sima family still support them?
With the lessons of Zu Ti and Su Jun, Li Yue did not dare to defect to the Eastern Jin Dynasty. Even if he did, others might not think highly of him...
Of course, Xin Can was from a veteran noble family, so it was understandable that at his age, he had been a member of the Jin Dynasty for most of his life, so his ideas had already been finalized.
After all, the Eastern Jin Dynasty held orthodoxy and righteousness. Murong Huang was proclaimed King of Yan and repeatedly requested Jiangdong's canonization.
It was not until Shi Hu was defeated that the kings and ministers of Jiangdong took a high look at them and realized their value. They were conferred the title of King of Yan, envoys Chijie, general, commander of the military affairs of Hebei, Youzhou Mu, and Da Chanyu.
"What Mr. Xin said is true. One day we will drive out the Jie slaves and restore the country!" Li Yue didn't want to argue with him.
How much strength and ambition you have.
Let’s talk about the future in the future.
Who can tell clearly where Black Cloud Mountain will go?
Li Yue breathed a sigh of relief as Xin Can shared the civil affairs on the mountain.
As if to repay his kindness, Xin Can worked extremely hard, and he handled all the affairs on the mountain in an orderly manner. In addition to Yue Ji and other five girls, Xin Can regarded the other seven teenagers as his disciples and taught them through words and deeds.
The third-class democracy was quickly implemented.
The old tribe of Heiyun Mountain and a few people from Jijiabao were considered as subjects, most of the people from Jijiabao were common people, and the captured refugees and bandits were children.
After implementation, the cohesion has increased significantly.
First of all, the people from Heiyun Mountain and Jijiabao were united. As for the refugees and bandits who had just arrived, they naturally did not dare to have any objections.
Li Yue made an investigation and found that what most people care about is not hierarchy, but a stable order.
The world has been in chaos for so many years, and they long for a peaceful life, whether it is under the rule of Jie Zhao, Murong Xianbei, or Li Yue.
This is China's great fortune and China's misfortune...
