Datang: Li Shimin begged me to rebel

Datang Southern Border, Yunnan Prefecture.

Not long after the establishment of the prefecture here, the entire Dali area and Kunming area have completely become the main gathering points here in Yunnan prefecture, because these two places have a large number of plains that can be farmed and a large number of people can live.

Many Shanyue people who originally lived in the mountains also migrated from the mountains to farm here.

In fact, the living environment of the Shanyue people here was very wild. Many tribal villages are like tribes in primitive society, and some villages in the deep mountains have some very bloody primitive ways of life.

The influence of the Tang Dynasty on this place has always been very weak, or the influence of all dynasties on this place has been very weak.

The land of Guangdong and Guangxi on the east side of Yunnan Prefecture is better, after all, it is close to the sea, and then in the Han Dynasty, Spring and Autumn Period and Warring States Period, after Guangzhou Port gradually began to prosper, people gradually began to infiltrate here.

However, the mountainous areas in these places in Yunnan have always retained their original features. Even these places once belonged to the Han Dynasty and other Central Plains dynasties, but in fact the deep mountains are completely another world.

Different from later generations, in this era, a large number of virgin forests still cover the large tracts of land here, just like Li Ke wanted to build Qinwangzhuang next to Cangshan Mountain and Erhai Lake. The dense virgin forest stretches down from Cangshan Mountain and directly extends to the Next to the Erhai Lake.

If it hadn’t been for the fact that Tang Dynasty gradually began to immigrate to this place after taking control of it, cutting down forests for building houses, burning charcoal, and then exploring minerals on the surrounding mountains for building iron mines, etc., the forests here would not be There are too many changes.

There is still a big gap between this era and later generations.

But in a short period of time, the power of nature cannot keep up with the destruction of manpower, even in ancient times.

And as a large number of Shanyue people migrated down from the mountain forest, large gathering points here are constantly forming.Similarly, Datang's departments at all levels naturally began to build up continuously.

Many officials in these places are officials dispatched from Guangdong and Guangxi, and these officials are also the first batch of people who have undergone Li Ke's reform. These local officials are very clear about what His Royal Highness King Qin wants. have already had experience.

What's more, if they want to win more ports and cities like Lizhi Port, they must follow His Highness's footsteps steadily, and they must not make trouble for His Highness.

Families like Feng An responded immediately.

In addition to the officials in charge of the main management, most of the members of the security forces here were also transferred from Guangdong and Guangxi, and a considerable part of them were trained and trained by the people of Shanyue over there.

They have the idea of ​​following Li Ke, and they also have the ability to be familiar with the customs and habits of the local mountain people and understand their living customs.

Therefore, these local managements are rapidly and steadily developing in a state of rapid development.

In fact, Li Ke overestimated the difficulty here, and the consciousness he accepted in his mind was more of the impression of how difficult and tricky these ethnic minorities were in later generations from the late Qing Dynasty to the early founding of the People's Republic of China.

After coming to Datang, he didn't know the local people at all, so he strengthened his strength in all aspects to deal with the affairs of these local mountain people.

But Li Ke forgot one most fundamental thing. In the Tang Dynasty, most of the mountain people in the mountains and forests were struggling for food and clothing. The lives of many tribes were in an extremely primitive state. greatest pursuit.

In addition, some messy beliefs and traditions have not formed here at all, only some primitive worship and the like. The ethnic issue is far less difficult to deal with than later generations, or whether there is a nation is a problem.

Under such circumstances, when Li Ke's thoughts entered here, it can be said that they were the first group to invade the most simple thoughts of the mountain people who had just come out of their original state.

I'm afraid Li Ke can't even imagine that in this mountainous land, all the sayings and rules passed by Li Ke have the greatest influence here!

In other words, Li Ke has instead become the biggest belief here!

This led to the deepening of Datang's dominance over the local area at a terrifying speed. This is why Datang completely eliminated the influence of the local Six Zhaozhao in just a few years, and the original Nanzhao quickly became A state and county in Datang.

And here, in response to the conscription policy of the Tang Dynasty, there are also the most mountain soldiers who become conscripts!

Because no one has ever completely solved the problem of food and clothing for these people, and no one has ever completely solved the problem of their local people's illness and treatment, never.

But Li Ke did it.

Through the reverse transportation of the Lancang River, a large amount of food, salt, and various cheap cloths are transported to Yunnan and Guizhou every year regardless of cost, making Li Ke's influence here reach an unprecedented height.

I am afraid that only Qinghai can compare with this place.

It's just that Li Ke himself doesn't know it yet.Nanman, the most difficult to solve in the past dynasties, is now the most loyal follower of King Qin of the Tang Dynasty, even the entire Jiannan Road, because these places are also dominated by mountain people.

Yunnan Prefecture, Pu'er County, Xinbu.

It has been more than a year since the Xinbu belonged to Datang. They also migrated down from the mountains and lived in the southernmost part of Pu'er County. There are several independent large tribes on the south side, but there is no attachment to Datang for the time being.

Xinbu is a township according to the division above in the Tang Dynasty, but the population is actually not large, because the subsequent gradual migration of other tribes is considered here, so it is planned as a township.

But in fact, there are less than 500 people living in the whole Xinbu, but because it is planned as a township, the governor of Yunnan Prefecture in the Tang Dynasty is also responsible for the food problem here, encouraging local caravans to transport food here, and then recycle the new The medicinal materials collected by the department will be transported back to the vicinity of Kunming for processing.

Not only food, but also some cloth and salt have to be delivered to them. These caravans will have a monthly subsidy from the Tang court.

The caravan in Ningshan is such a caravan. Their caravan is mainly composed of pack horses from Yunnan and two elephants. Yes, there are elephants in their caravan!

These two elephants were also given to them by the local mountain tribe. It is not easy to domesticate elephants. Not to mention that these two adult elephants have consigned a lot of supplies for them. The most important thing is that these two elephants are their caravan The force of force can deter all kinds of large wild animals in the surrounding primitive jungle.
