Chapter 1351 The Palace

(There are eight consecutive updates today, please vote for monthly votes to support it!)

Even a Shanyi dared to climb onto his head and stool and urinate. After he finished stool, he had to borrow paper from him.

Even my uncle can tolerate it, but my aunt can’t.

Li Shimin claimed to be a great emperor who had surpassed Qin Emperor and Han Wu, but today he suffered great humiliation.

Zhang Chao looked at the emperor's gloomy face, and saw that his hands were clenched into fists, and there was a possibility of going wild at any time.

He stood up and scolded him.

"The Shanyi, who violated the majesty of Emperor Taishang of the Tang Dynasty, was pushed out and killed."

"Abide by the order!"

Several knights stood up, one by one, and directly carried the eagle out like a chicken.

The Shanyi people were scared to pee.

We are here to ask for surrender, but why do we have to kill people?

Struggle, beg for mercy.

Li Shimin, who was originally furious, suddenly felt bored.

He is a dignified emperor, how can he expose himself to a few mountain barbarians?

So what if you kill them, can you change the fact that he has lost power?

The Shanyi only knew the Zhang family on the Ba Shang, Zhang Chao, but not the Emperor Li Shimin.

He waved his hand tastelessly.

"Forget it, why bother with a few Shanyi?"

Zhang Chao borrowed the donkey from the Po, "You will thank the Emperor for not killing you."

Several Shanyi quickly knelt down and thanked him. He walked away from the gate of hell. He became much more honest and did not dare to whisper casually when he knelt there.

"Wenyuan, you should deal with the mountain Yi here and the mountain Yi on the mountain. I am a little tired, so I will go and rest first."

Li Shimin stood up and left with his head held high.

The posture was well maintained, but the heart was very bitter.

The emperor left, and Shanyi's right to deal with him was also in Zhang Chao.

Things got a turn and returned to the same place.

Zhang Chao also realized that it was indeed a good thing that Shanyi was willing to surrender. Although they did not surrender, they were just practicing for Liu Qiu's troops, and they would not cause any harm to the Zhang family army.

But if the Shanyi people suffer many casualties, the losses will be great.

"Father, if we accept the surrender, we will not be able to demote them all to slaves."

Zhang Jing whispered on the side. There are at least 100,000 tribal warriors on this mountain, not to mention the hidden mountain barbarians and women in the mountains. This is a population of hundreds of thousands.

Just like what the Supreme Emperor said, if you go back to your own house, the loss will be huge.

"It is impossible to let go directly, but it is not possible to kill, and it is not suitable to be demoted to slaves." Zhang Chao pondered. He believed that after this battle, the Shanyi people basically had no fighting spirit.

But you have to be careful not to remember to eat or beat them.

"First of all, they have to come down and surrender unconditionally."

"Secondly, the court gave these Shanyi Datang Liuqiu's priesthood citizenship."

Zhang Jing objected, "Is it too cheap for them?"

"You'll finish listening to me."

Zhang Chao's solution was that these mountain beasts could no longer return to their original villages, nor could they live their original hunting life.

They were citizens in the future, and the Zhang family moved them to the flat land at the foot of the mountain, but they would not give them the fields directly. They became tenants of the Zhang family farm, rented the Zhang family's fields, paid the fields rent to the Zhang family. They lived in the village outside the Tunbao village of the Zhang family farm, and were managed.

These people will be more scattered and placed in the Tun Village of Zhangjia.

Some people will be recruited as soldiers, while others will be placed in workshops and mines.

No one will become slaves, they will have jobs and salaries.

Their children, who are three years old, must enter schools in towns in Liuqiu to receive Chinese education from an early age. They can go home for a period of time during the winter and summer vacations every year, until they complete six years of primary school education. After the primary school, the Zhang family will arrange for them. They have good talent and go to technical schools. If they have poor conditions, they will go directly to the boat to become trainee sailors and go to the workshop to be apprentices.

In short, the next generation of Shanyi people must be fully sinicized, and even separate them from their parents, families, tribes, and traditions.

Only such a mountain barbarian can a good mountain barbarian be.

Of course, Zhang Chao also needs a lot of people to explore Luzon, Boni and other places soon.

If there were uncooperative stubborn people in these surrendered Shanyi, or the prestigious chiefs and leaders, Zhang Chao would send them to Luzon, Boni and other places to explore and reclaim them.

The last Shanyi who ended up with hundreds of thousands of people can almost be settled.

Although it may lose tens of millions compared to selling them directly as slaves, if they can be resettled, they can also be converted into Liuqiu's population, and it will be the same for the growth of the Zhang family.

"These mountain beasts are afraid they are hard to manage."

"It is difficult to manage, but you have to manage it. Simple and crude means are not possible. Now it is becoming increasingly difficult to immigrate to the Central Plains, and there are still people who can move out in large quantities. We must absorb the native barbarians from the conquered lands, so that we can continue to strengthen our fiefdom."

"Remember to promote Mandarin to these Shanyi and let them learn Chinese. We must also implement the Baojia system. Each Shanyi resettlement site will be placed together, and dozens of households will be enough in each place. Don't place too many, and we must ensure that we Han people account for the majority."

"Let the Shanyi supervise each other. If anyone dares to resist secretly or even do illegal things, he must report it. Otherwise, if one family commits a crime, the people who are protecting each other will be punished and deducted money. At the worst, we will be punished and deducted money from those disobedient Shanyi, and at the worst, labor reform or even demoted to slaves and sold."

These policies are relatively strict, but there are many mountain barbarians on the island, including those who surrendered in the past and those who were conquered later. In addition, these are the number of them this time.

If the control is not done well, the consequences will be very serious.

After all, they must have resentment to drive them out of their original hometown.

At this time, you have to rely on management, and if you want to manage well, it is inevitable that you will be strict.

"Of course, you can't just be strict. Those who are more obedient and harmonious must also be rewarded appropriately. You can even choose some Shanyi who are not in the Shanyi and have not even a good reputation, but are willing to be loyal to us, and let them help supervise and manage those Shanyi."

His son is still young, and Zhang Chao is willing to spend time and energy to teach him more. But his son has grown up and he has fewer and fewer opportunities to be around him in the future. He has to sit alone in Liuqiu and manage the ban of hundreds of miles.

"Remember one thing: people's hearts and benevolence and righteousness. Our Zhang family has Liu Qiu, which is driven by our swords and guns, but we cannot control the area by swords, guns and whips."

"Liuqiu can set up several counties. Select suitable candidates, appoint county magistrates, and other principalities and counties, and establish parliaments."

Penghu County, Liuqiu County, Keelung County, Liunan, Liudong, Yilan, and Liuqiu Duchy of China were divided into six counties.

Establish a county government office, appoint a county magistrate, and establish a parliament.

At this stage, the parliament is not a democracy. It is a unity and win over all classes to consolidate the Zhang family's rule over Liuqiu.

There will be knights in the parliament, landlords, merchants, scholars and other classes. It is a place for negotiation, which can coordinate conflicts and is also a place for all classes to serve the Zhang family.

It is also necessary to appropriately give up some power and let those influential people share it. Common politics is a compromise, and it is not advisable to just take over the power.

The Zhang family also had many knights in Liuqiu, and they were enfeoffed more than 800. These people were the foundation of the Zhang family’s Liuqiu. They were not only officers of the army, but also important officials of the small court of the Zhang family’s Duchy of China.

The fiefs granted to the knights are equivalent to the merit fields rewarded in the past. The knights fully enjoy the right to have fiefs, and even enjoy one-third of the tax revenue of fiefs. This is similar to the territorial power of the imperial court to divide the nobles in the past.

Zhang Chao didn't mind enfeoffing more knights, as these knights were just landlords. Although there were too many landlords, they would occupy more land, but the knights and landlords who enfeoffed would naturally be more loyal to the Zhang family.

After the officials and troops of the court withdrew from the fiefs of the princes, the princes took over the civil affairs, judicial taxes and military aspects of the fiefs.

A simple governor's yamen is definitely not enough.

Liuqiu is an 800-mile island, and now it is divided into six counties, so it is not easy to manage, especially administration, justice and military affairs.

According to the imperial system, all the officials who have been enfeoffed have a set of states.

For example, in the Duke's Mansion, there is a national order, one large farmer, two wei, eight wei, and the Changshi, etc., there is a set of official systems, which have been held since the Han and Wei dynasties. Although there are some changes in each dynasty, they are almost the same.

However, Zhang Chao was not very satisfied with the original establishment of these national officials.

He intends to change the principality institutions so that government orders can be smoother and powers and responsibilities will be clearer.

Under the Duke's Mansion, there are three major yamen: administration, military affairs and judicial affairs, and there is also a parliament.

As Duke Liu Qiu, Zhang Jing was naturally the person who held the highest power in the entire principality. The three major yamen below each had ministers, and the administrative management was in charge of civil affairs, which was equivalent to the cabinet of the court, with various departments of personnel, taxation, industry and commerce, agriculture, and education. The Ministry of Justice included courts, supervisory offices, police departments, etc., which was equivalent to the imperial censorate, Dali Temple, and Ministry of Justice in the past.

As for the Ministry of Military Affairs, it is naturally the one who manages the troops. It is divided into the Army Office and the Navy Office. It is commanded by the Guard of Liuqiu and also governs militias, etc.

As for the parliament, this is only a united front organization for political discussion and supervision.

The organizational structure of the Duke's Mansion is generally equivalent to that of the imperial court.

In addition, Zhang Chao also arranged an internal affairs system for his son, including two teachers, friends, and two literary people.

In addition, there are the Chief Secretary, Sima, Consultant, Chief Secretary, Recording, etc. This is equivalent to the Hanlin Academy of the imperial court, Zhang Jing's assistant, assisting him in handling affairs.

There is inside and outside, and there is clear responsibilities.

Although my son is young, he has so many people to assist and organize, and the entire Liuqiu can operate effectively.

To put it bluntly, if you meet an incompetent descendant in the future, you will actually work the same way if you don’t mess around and interfere.

"The imperial examinations were given for the imperial examinations in the imperial court, so we had to hold schools and cultivate talents through the school. Of course, it was necessary to dig talents from the mainland of the Central Plains. In short, everything my father could do for you has done for you, and the rest was up to you."
