Zhuge Liang After conquering Nanzhong , he used the local ethnic minority troops to establish the Shu Han brigade - Wudang Feijun . This unit is divided into three groups, including the traditional ace army of Liu Bei, and the Western Liang Ma family army, and the fortunately lit up. This army is distinctive, and from the perspective of the nature of the army, it gives an inappropriate metaphor. It is similar to the French foreign legion, and it is a professional mercenary .
Shu Han regime used Wuling Man (moved south from Henan, not the same system as Southwest Yi ) to hire mercenaries to show their skills in the war against Wu, and even the powerful general Ganning died at the hands of these barbarians . In the war of capturing Meng Huo , of course, it was just a symbol, Zhuge Liang fully realized the bravery and good fighting of the ethnic minorities in the South Central China. This is not surprising. In history, farming nations generally lack the spirit of perseverance, while nomadic and fishing and hunting nations are often brave and fierce.
As the war in South China ended and peace was restored, these fierce soldiers fell into unemployment. Leaving such power in the south is undoubtedly a huge social instability factor. Looking at the February 28th Incident that occurred in Taiwan after the War of Resistance Against Japan, the members of the Taiwanese Gaosau troops who were demobilized from the former Japanese army. To this end, Zhuge Liang implemented a favorable policy of killing two birds with one stone, which was to recruit ethnic minority soldiers to join the Shu government army, and the funding problem was solved by local local tyrants. " Huayang Guozhi " records that Liang was a man of the barbarians and was not a powerful man in the family, so he ordered gold and silk to be hired to be a member of the family, and the more he had Luan's hereditary official.
So the barbarians were greedy for goods and obeyed the Han Dynasty and formed the Yi Han tribe, thus establishing a local army with the nature of using the barbarians to control the barbarians in the local area. The local tyrants gained social status, so they were content with the rule of Shu Han, and sent out Jin and mid-distance troops, which benefited ethnic minorities and eased ethnic conflicts. At the same time, these local unemployed soldiers have become government troops, just as if they have obtained shares in enterprises and become the core of centripetal force among ethnic minorities. The army it composed was familiar with folk customs and less provoked problems. Later, Zhang Yi , Ma Zhong and others suppressed the rebellion, and the Yi Han tribes were all the main forces.
is so beneficial, so naturally it cannot be enjoyed exclusively in the place. At the same time, in order to completely avoid the resurgence of the separatist forces in the south, under the leadership of Zhuge Liang, Shu Kingdom spared no effort to move the powerful soldiers in the south. More than 10,000 Qing Qiang families were in Shu, and they were five tribes. They were called Feijun. This is the origin of Wudang Feijun. After the members of this army arrived at Shu County , they became the military household of Shu Kingdom, and worked as soldiers for Shu Kingdom for generations and became professional soldiers.
At that time, the prosperity of Chengdu and Nanzhong is incomparable. Nanzhong Yi tribe is a warrior, so whenever there is a vacancy, the southerners will run around and tell, and they are pride in this. It reminds people of the scene where British troops recruited mercenaries in Nepal. Of course, the southern population was not large at that time, with 20,000 households in Yangke County, 20,000 households in Jianning County, 8,000 households in Zhuti County, and 40,000 households in Xinggu County, 10,000 households in a row, and 10,000 households who can seize wars, can be regarded as a way to remove the local separatist forces.
