Chapter 432 Yanmen Treaty

Chapter 432 Yanmen Treaty
The treaty reached between Qin Yi and the Southern Xiongnu is divided into eight items:

First, the two sides ceased fighting, and the Southern Huns were still vassals of the Han Dynasty, and the imperial court named Qubei the Southern Huns Shanyu.

Second, the imperial court was responsible for setting up the Royal Court of the Southern Huns in Taiyuan County, and retained a 500-member royal court guard in the lower part of the country.

Third, the Southern Huns moved 8 tribes to Bingzhou, where they were resettled by the Bingzhou government and guaranteed the source of livelihood for these 15 people in the future.Among the relocated people, no less than 35% of them are aged between [-] and [-], and this should be achieved within three years.The tribesmen of the Southern Huns who moved inward were jointly managed by Bingzhou and the official Southern Xiongnu Royal Court.If the tribes who moved inward live in hardship in the future, the imperial court should allow them to return to the outside of the pass according to their wishes.

Fourth, 15 Han people moved out of Bingzhou, and no less than 35% of them were aged between [-] and [-].The imperial court set up the Governor's Office of the Southern Huns outside the customs to manage the tribesmen of the Southern Xiongnu outside the customs and the Han people who moved out.The officials of the Dudu Mansion are divided into half by Huns and half by Han.The Han people who migrated abroad should teach the farming skills of the southern Huns.This was accomplished within two years.

Fifth, the imperial court treated Han Chinese and Huns equally.Whether it is the people of the Southern Huns outside the customs or those who migrated inward, they should bear taxes, military service, and labor like the Han people; if the Huns outside the customs encounter production disasters, the imperial court should provide relief.The people of the southern Xiongnu had the right to study in the pass, and they could become officials.The imperial court protected the people of the Southern Huns from other forces.

Sixth, open the border market, except for prohibited items, other materials are freely traded.The imperial court set up the Shi Yi Division in the border market, responsible for the management of the border market, maintaining law and order, and collecting taxes.The officials of Shiyi Division are divided into half by Huns and half by Han.However, the head of the Shiyi Division was held by a Han Chinese.The imperial court should not close the border market hastily without legitimate reasons.

Seventh, in addition to retaining self-defense forces, the Southern Xiongnu tribes are not allowed to expand their armies without the permission of the court.The self-defense forces of various ministries should be brought under the unified management of the Bingzhou government and its officials stationed outside the customs.In the event of war, the governor of Bingzhou had the right to command the southern Huns.

Eighth, Dahan Bingzhou Governor's Office has the final right to interpret this treaty.

This agreement was an unequal treaty for the Southern Huns.The local emphasis on inequality is reflected in Articles [-] and [-].Setting the Southern Huns royal court in Taiyuan County is actually putting Qubei under house arrest.And the governor's office of Bingzhou has the command power over the people of the Southern Huns, which is tantamount to depriving the Southern Huns of their military power.

However, the Southern Huns had long been attached to the imperial court. From a legal point of view, these two clauses are not excessive at all.

Apart from these two terms, the rest of the terms are fair.Of course, this is just the opinion of most people in this era.They don't have Qin Yi's long-term vision, so they can't see the power of this treaty in the future.

Qin Yi believes that as long as this treaty is implemented, after decades, the Southern Huns will exist in name only, and the people of the Southern Huns will also be assimilated into Han people.

In addition, the terms of the treaty are very broad, and there is a lot of room for maneuvering.Especially the last one, Bingzhou Governor's Office has the final right to interpret this treaty. This one seems useless, but in fact, only Qin Yi knows that this one is the most powerful one.

To put it bluntly, Qin Yi just bullied the Huns who did not understand the "Contract Law", and used some broad terms that seemed to be beneficial to the Huns to force the Huns to submit.

However, it is not entirely true that Qin Yi completely exploited the Huns.In fact, if the Huns did not go back on their word and followed Qin Yi's ideas in the future, their lives would surely be improved to a higher level.At least, it can also reach the living standard of the Han people.Of course, by then, the Southern Huns will only have one code name left.

The reason why this agreement can be reached is more because of the disagreement between the various ministries of the Southern Huns.The treaties in the terms that are unfavorable to the Southern Huns are mainly aimed at the two tribes of Qubei and Yuvro.Most of the tribesmen who moved inward also came from these two tribes.

Qu Bei has become a prisoner, if he doesn't want to be beheaded by Qin Yi, he can only hold his nose and admit it.The leaders of other tribes are all short-sighted people. Their thinking is very simple. Anyway, it is the tribes of Qubei and Yufulo who will suffer. At worst, I will live my life in the future.The rest of the terms of the treaty are in our favor, and I'll sign it.

This treaty was named "Yanmen Treaty" by Qin Yi.After the signing of the treaty, Qin Yi held a banquet to celebrate.

The leaders of the various ministries of the Southern Xiongnu stayed in Yanmenguan for another three days, and had detailed discussions with Qin Yi and other Han officials on opening the border market in the future and setting up the Southern Xiongnu Governor's Mansion.Then, they each went home.

During these days of negotiating with the Southern Huns, Qin Yi successively received letters from Qingjie sent by people from various counties in Bingzhou.The prefects of Dingxiang County and Yunzhong County, which are close to Yanmen County, also came to Yanmen Pass in person to congratulate Qin Yi, and brought some wine and meat to comfort the soldiers of Yanmen Pass.

Qin Yi was very pleased about this.This battle made him famous, and the prefects of all counties in Bingzhou sent people to celebrate the victory. In fact, they recognized Qin Yi, the new governor of Bingzhou, in a disguised form. This was a good start for Qin Yi.

After sending away the leaders of the Southern Huns, Qin Yi started preparing to lead his army back to Taiyuan.

Before leaving, he convened another important meeting. After discussing with everyone, Qin Yi decided to play Zhang Yang as the governor of the Southern Huns, Li Zhen as the chief historian, and Mu Shun as the chief secretary; Yanmenguan Shiyi Division is in charge, and is fully responsible for the establishment of the Shiyi Division.

Zhang Yang and Mu Shun had lived in the Southern Huns for more than a year, and they were quite familiar with the customs and customs of the Southern Huns. Let Zhang Yang be in charge of the Southern Huns' governor's office, which is considered as the best use of people.Li Zhen has been guarding Yanmen Pass for many years. He is intelligent, capable in writing and military, and is loyal to the great man. Qin Yi is also very relieved that he will be the chief historian and also lead the military power of the Southern Huns.

Yan Rou has been traveling outside and inside the customs. He is an old businessman, and he is the most suitable candidate for Shi Yi Si Zheng.In addition, although Yan Rou took the initiative to submit to Qin Yi, Qin Yi was very worried about this person. This person had no principles in his actions, and it was difficult for Qin Yi to fully trust him.

Qin Yi didn't want to bring Yan Rou back to Taiyuan to serve.Coincidentally, when he wanted to open the border market with the Huns, he suddenly thought of letting Yan Rou be in charge of the management of the border market.The border market is located just outside the Yanmen Pass, even if Yan Rou has a different heart, there will be no trouble.

Besides, Qin Yi's subordinates also lack business talents, and Yan Rou is the best business person in office, and she is still a business talent who understands foreign trade and economics very well.It can be said that the position of Shi Yi Si Zheng was born for Yan Rou.

Zhang Yang, Mu Shun, and Yan Rou all attended the meeting, and they had no objection to Qin Yi's arrangement.On the contrary, they thought it was Qin Yi's trust and respect for them.After all, as soon as the treaty was established, Qin Yi asked them to be responsible for fulfilling the specific matters in the treaty. This is indeed a great trust in them.

After the meeting, Qin Yi asked Guo Jia to draft a memorial to the imperial court of Yecheng about the history of the Battle of Yanmen Pass and the content of the "Yanmen Treaty" he signed with the Southern Huns.Naturally, the official positions of Zhang Yang, Li Zhen, Mu Shun, and Yan Rou are also indispensable.

Qin Yi not only sent a memorial to the Yecheng court, he also sent a document to the Chang'an court in the form of a notification.

The reason why he also sent documents to the Chang'an court was firstly to let the whole world know what a great event Qin Yi had accomplished; secondly, to let the Chang'an court reposition the Southern Huns; thirdly, he was right Wang Yun has an explanation.
