Chapter 639: Brotherhood.
“That’s a good suggestion.”
Ye Kun nodded and said with a smile: "It doesn't cost much to set up a mathematics school and a physics school, so we can do it right away. In addition, notify universities in Chengdu, Chang'an, Jinling, Xiangyang and other places to transfer all the top people to Zhuo County for the highest level and the highest level of research!"
Ye Kun has always advocated the refinement and high precision of disciplines.
But there were not many talents in the past and the opportunities were not mature.
Now that we have so many talented people, it’s time to set up a School of Mathematics and a School of Physics.
There already were mathematics and physics departments in the university, but with the establishment of specialized colleges, the importance attached to them will be different, and everyone will be more motivated!
Old He's eyes lit up and he smiled, "I am willing to sacrifice my broken body to accomplish this for the Emperor."
Ye Kun nodded and asked Eunuch Huang to send a telegram to mobilize the mathematics and physics experts from universities across the country to come to Zhuo County.
The limit for universities in all regions is 100 people.
In the direction of the Yinshan camp, Guan Yong brought Tianxian Chanyu's entire family to Zhuo County to pay a visit to Ye Kun.
Ye Kun put on the dragon robe, summoned all civil and military officials, and met with Tianxian Chanyu in the Golden Palace.
Tianxian Chanyu bowed down to His Majesty and kowtowed, saying: "We are a barbarian and have offended the majesty of Your Majesty for many years. We deserve to be put to death."
Ye Kun looked at Tianxian Chanyu, who was just an ordinary old man, and said with a smile: "We have been fighting for twenty years, but this is the first time I see you."
"I am a sinner who does not know the majesty of heaven. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."
"Since you have surrendered, I will naturally forgive you. I will not pursue the past. Stand up and speak."
Ye Kun nodded and asked, "You come to surrender to me, do you have any request?"
Tianxian Chanyu stood up, clasped his fists and said, "If Your Majesty can return me a piece of grassland and pasture so that my people can reproduce and thrive, I will be grateful. I am willing to follow the example of the Western Xiongnu Little King, be a vassal for generations, and never dare to have any other thoughts again."
"This is impossible."
Ye Kun flatly refused and said with a smile: "For hundreds of years, you Xiongnu people have always been thinking about our Central Plains. From time to time, you go south to thresh the grass, and even want to completely occupy the Central Plains. Now, as you wish, I will let your people live in the Central Plains.
From now on, you won’t have to herd horses and sheep everywhere, nor will you have to suffer from hunger and cold. I will send people to teach you how to farm the land, so that you can have food and drink, and you won’t have to worry about floods and droughts. ”
Tianxian Chanyu cried, "But our hometown is on the prairie, and the bones of our ancestors are also buried on the prairie... Our gods live in the sky over the prairie."
Ye Kun smiled and said, "So where were your ancestors two thousand years ago?"
Tianxian Chanyu was stunned: "I don't know."
"Then I'll tell you."
Ye Kun said seriously: "You are the descendants of Emperor Yan and Emperor Huang, just like us. Dayu controlled the floods, and then the Xia Dynasty was established. But when Shang Tang conquered Xia, some of the people of Xia fled to the prairie and became the ancestors of the Xiongnu.
Now that you have returned, you are returning to the hometown of your ancestors, not abandoning your hometown."
Ye Kun wasn't talking nonsense.
Scientists of later generations used genetic analysis to find that the northern nomadic peoples and the Chinese people were one family thousands of years ago.
Tianxian Chanyu smiled bitterly: "I have also heard what the emperor said, but who can verify something that happened thousands of years ago?"
"I can prove it." Ye Kun stepped down from the throne, came to a Roman official, took off his hat, and said with a smile:
"You see, Westerners have white skin and white hair, which is obviously different from our yellow skin and black hair. And you Xiongnu, like us Chinese, have black hair and yellow skin, and your facial features are exactly the same. So, we are one family."
All the civil and military officials in the court laughed together.
Tianxian Chanyu knew that it was useless to say anything, so he smiled bitterly and said, "May I ask your Majesty, where are you going to send my people to farm? Do we have to pay taxes?"
"Send them to the Jianghuai and Qilu areas. No taxes will be paid in the first three years. After three years, when you have learned farming and the production is stable, you can start paying taxes. Housing will be allocated to you, and you don't need to pay a penny. The initial food will also be given to you, and we guarantee that no one will starve to death."
Ye Kun is very generous.
After all, there were only 20,000 to 30,000 Huns left, and it was easy to resettle them.
Tianxian Chanyu thanked him and asked, "Your Majesty, I beg you to put all my people in one place and not let us be scattered."
"I can't do that. I don't have a suitable place."
Ye Kun shrugged and said with a smile: "Ten households form a group, and each group will be arranged in one place."
If tens of thousands of Huns were put together, they would still cause trouble, and it would not be conducive to assimilation.
They were resettled in scattered areas, surrounded by Han people, and were asked to behave themselves.
After ten or eight years, they were completely assimilated.
Tianxian Chanyu sighed and asked again, "Your Majesty, how do you plan to accommodate me?"
Ye Kun smiled and said, "I have already built a Shanyu Mansion for you in the outer city. I will confer upon you the title of 'Gui Ming Hou', a first-rank official title, and a salary of 2,000 shi. In addition, I will send you ten followers and ten palace maids to take care of your family's daily life.
There are also a hundred guards to protect your safety."
The guards and followers were all responsible for monitoring Tianxian Chanyu.
You can't refuse it.
Tianxian Chanyu smiled bitterly, clasped his fists and accepted the order: "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Ye Kun nodded and instructed Tan Bamao to be responsible for the resettlement of Tianxian Chanyu's entire family, and instructed the Ministry of Households to make arrangements for Tianxian Chanyu's other family members and the remnants of the Xiongnu who would arrive later.
There were more than 20,000 Huns behind, waiting for spring to come and bring them back in batches.
After the court was dismissed, Ye Kun met Guan Yong alone and talked about their brotherhood.
Guan Yong said, "Your Majesty, now that the world is at peace, I am old, and I want to retire and travel around, and visit my brothers Jiang Laowu, Qin Erwu, Zhao Biao, etc."
"Qin Erwu, I've sent an order to call him back. He will probably be in Zhuo County soon. We can meet there."
Ye Kun nodded and said with a smile: "Jiang Laowu is still in charge of the Yangtze River Navy and the water transport work in Jiangnan. He is also stationed in the Jingxiang area. It is not difficult to meet him.
It’s Zhao Biao…”
Guan Yong frowned slightly: "What happened to Zhao Biao?"
"Zhao Biao's four sons have grown up and have the intention to rebel. At least, they want to establish their own territory in the Western Regions." Ye Kun sighed, "We were brothers and swore to live and die together. I never expected the changes today."
"What, Zhao Biao wants to rebel?" Guan Yong was shocked.
"Yes, I have received accurate secret reports from many parties. Zhao Biao has a son who built the Cheshi city, which is as solid as a rock."
The Cheshi Kingdom is the Urumqi of later generations.
It is nourished by snow from the sky, has a population of tens of thousands, and has pastures and farmland. It is considered to have the best environment and location among the Thirty-Six Kingdoms in the Western Regions.
Zhao Biao's four sons vigorously built Cheshi City in order to make it their base camp.
Guan Yong was trembling all over and asked in a low voice, "Your Majesty, how do you plan to deal with Zhao Biao and his four sons?"
Ye Kun asked Guan Yong in return: "Brother, what do you say?"
