In these registered households, there were forty thousand households with two hundred thousand people, who were immigrants from Yulin County. There were eleven thousand households with fifty-five thousand people, who were immigrants just moved from Xichuan Country.

There were thirty one thousand three hundred households with one hundred and fifty-three thousand people, who were criminals exiled within the country, and their registered households after they married local Yi women and children.

There were seven thousand households with thirty-five thousand people, who were county soldiers recruited from within the country, and their registered households after they married local Yi women and children.

Finally, there were three thousand households with fifteen thousand people, who were landless people called upon from within the country, and their registered households after they married local Yi women and children.

All of these people were civilized people under the king’s rule.

Other than these, with the help of the forbidden army sent by the Great King, the Yi people in the local prefectures and counties were also counted and registered.

Now, the registered households of Yi people have reached more than a hundred and thirty-five thousand households, with more than four hundred and seventy-three thousand people.

Among these people, there are many elderly and young people, with only three or four people in each household, or even two or three, and very few men with manly strength.

Moreover, most of them resent the Great Chu, and if it weren’t for the criminals helping with assimilation, it would eventually become a hidden danger in the local area.”

The county magistrate of Qianzhong County, Gu Weijun, holding a thick register of household records, came to the palace to report to Lu Yuan.

Taking the register, Lu Yuan listened to the report while looking through the register, and couldn’t help but ask, “So according to this, there are now 227,300 households and 9,300,000 people in the Chu and Yi households in Qianzhong County?”

Gu Weijun respectfully replied, “Yes, Your Majesty, that’s correct.”

Upon hearing this, Lu Yuan couldn’t help but nod in satisfaction.

In this campaign to conquer Da Changhe Country, they had opened up a new territory of Qianzhong County, which was roughly half the size of Great Chu’s previous territory.

In terms of population, although the growth was not substantial, with only an increase of about 630,000 people. Among them, the number allocated to the criminals who were being assimilated was only about 150,000.

Even so, the 630,000 people were almost equal to one-tenth of the total population of Great Chu.

If we add the immigrants from Yulin County and Xichuan Country on both sides, it would easily exceed one-tenth of the total population.

The increase in territory and population undoubtedly raised the national strength of Great Chu to a higher level.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

Taking into account the previous accumulation, Chu State now boasts four counties and twenty-five prefectures, with a population of over seven million, making it a quasi-great power.

In terms of overall strength, it is already equivalent to half of Ning Country, and a step closer to the goal of seizing the Master of Yangzhou.

How can Lu Yuan not rejoice in such a harvest?

Therefore, after confirming, he said to Gu Weijun, “You don’t need to worry about the remaining 135,000 Yi households. By next year, the Punishment Department should exile another 20,000 criminals here. The Military Department and the Household Department also guarantee to recruit 5,000 county soldiers and immigrants.

With these 25,000 people, it’s enough to digest a large number of immigrants.

Furthermore, I’ve ordered Xichuan County to recruit immigrants, who will continue to migrate here to enrich the population of Qianzhong County.

In addition, there are 250,000 immigrants from Yulin County and Xichuan Country who were previously relocated.

Among so many people, there should be more than 10,000 eligible unmarried men.

The local government can also work on this and allocate some Yi women and children to these people, thus assimilating the local Yi population.

In this way, at least 20,000 Yi households can be absorbed in terms of immigration.

Adding all these up, next year, 45,000 Yi households can be settled.

Some more can be resolved the year after, and then some more…

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

In three or four years, there won’t be too many Yi people left in the local area.

In the end, even if there are tens or hundreds of thousands of Yi people left, they will not be able to make waves against this overwhelming trend.”

As for how to assimilate the local Yi women and children all over the place, Lu Yuan had been thinking hard about it in these days. Not only did he think about it himself, but he also gathered some of his close ministers to think about it together.

Eventually, they concluded the above two approaches.

One was to rely on exiled criminals and recruited immigrants from within the country.

The other was to obtain eligible men from among the immigrants.

Both approaches could help Qianzhong County to continuously assimilate the local Yi people in the long run.

Besides these two approaches, there was actually a third one, which was to transform some soldiers from the forbidden army to serve as county soldiers in Qianzhong County.

Despite the military reform in Great Chu Country, the salaries and benefits for local county soldiers had become much worse compared to those of the forbidden army.

However, not all local armies are like this.

For example, county soldiers in the Great Chu Country are part of the sequence of combat soldiers.

That is to say, the salary and treatment of county soldiers are not worse than that of the forbidden army. Both of them belong to combat soldiers, except that one is a local army and the other is a central army, which are just different.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

Therefore, it is not difficult to transform the forbidden army into county soldiers, and there will not be much resistance.

However, the conditions in Qianzhong County are still as described before.

Local rebellions of the Yi People, proximity to the war zone, and so on, are not mentioned.

After all, the forbidden army was originally fighting everywhere, and now it is not fighting against Da Changhe Country in Qianzhong County?

It is normal to eat this meal, and a little danger is not worth mentioning. No one will fear it.

However, the environment here is really bad and is the poorest and most remote place.

The most intuitive point.

Now the total population of the eight prefectures in the county is less than one million, which shows how poor it is.

The forbidden army is not afraid of fighting, not afraid of danger, but they are afraid of poverty, aren’t they?

Even if the salary is the same, the experience of living in a colorful world and in the countryside is different.

Just the difference in the environment actually makes quite a gap.

Therefore, it is not easy to transform the forbidden army under his command into Qianzhong county soldiers.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

However, Lu Yuan has also made some compensation for this. If the forbidden army is willing to transform into county soldiers, the court can give each transformed county soldier a compensation of 100 acres of land.

Anyway, Qianzhong County has a large and sparsely populated area. After the war, there are large areas of good farmland deserted and unclaimed.

Now it is time to collect and use it as welfare treatment, distributed to county soldiers willing to settle down here.

With this condition, many people can still be attracted.

After all, one hundred acres of land is equivalent to a small landlord.

As everyone knows.

The life of a landlord is definitely much higher than that of ordinary people, and even some wealthy classes among commoners.

Among these wealthy strata, there are naturally those forbidden soldiers.

Settling down here and transforming into county soldiers with similar salary and treatment can make some people give up the colorful world and come here to earn this family business.

In particular, there are many soldiers of Lu Yuan’s forbidden army who are reorganized from Zhou People in the north. These people were captured to the south and can no longer return to their homes in Zhou Country, which is almost equivalent to being single.

So now there are many bachelors in the forbidden army.

For those who are homeless and unaccountable, it will be enough for their families to continue without worries if they can earn a family business here in Qianzhong County.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

Well, considering the special situation of Qianzhong County now, after settling down, a wife and several children will be assigned immediately. Even with the conditions of county soldiers, one or two more wives and children can be assigned to satisfy the desire for three wives and four concubines, which is not impossible.

Thinking about it, it’s even more attractive.

So after this generous treatment was spread among the soldiers, many soldiers in the forbidden army have already moved and started applying to transform into county soldiers.

Now Lu Yuan has specially arranged for someone to be responsible for this matter in the forbidden army and do ideological work for these single Iranians.

At present, the progress is quite smooth, and about 3,000 forbidden soldiers have submitted their applications.

It’s just that it takes some time to make adjustments to their defense zones, organizational structure, and some mobilization and replenishment of the original troops.

However, with the efficiency of Lu Yuan’s subordinates, these things are expected to be completed by March of next year.

By then, the number of forbidden soldiers transformed may reach 5,000, or even 7,000 to 8,000, and even filling in the establishment of 10,000 county soldiers at one time is not impossible.

Once these county soldiers settle down, a large number of local Yi people can be digested.

By then, the control of Qianzhong County will become more and more stable.

In order to manage Qianzhong County, Lu Yuan has racked his brains.
