Chapter 139 138. Facing the Enemy
"Hey, I said you are not honest. You have agreed to have a bucket of food for one and a half dollars. What I give you is new food. What do you mean by giving some old and weak people?!"
grassland.
After a month or two, the famine on the grassland was alleviated, but there was still not enough food.
It was also two months ago that more than a dozen merchants who exchanged grain for people appeared in half of the desert.
At the beginning, the grassland people who lack food were still malicious, but as the malicious people slowly died, the rest were all good.
A place in front of a tribe.
The spy merchant who weaved the net scolded the heads of this tribe without any shame. The 200 tiger-bearing eagle strikes mixed guards were eyeing each other, making the entire tribe silent.
The head man licked his face: "The nobles are good at doing things. There are too few warriors in our tribe. They can't bring back many Han people in one robbery. They are all taken back by picking others."
"Get out, a certain family doesn't open a good house. If it weren't for the few mining people, would I be so rare that I came to this broken place?!
Just you old and weak, what's the use of me taking it back? Take it away with your hands and be careless again. Be careful that I snatch the people from your tribe and take it back for the service!"
"Negotiable, noble, please be kind and take these old and weak. Our tribe can't hold on anymore. If you don't help, everyone in our tribe will starve to death. Otherwise, you can see this, half a fight
What do you think of food alone?"
Amid the pleading of the head man, the spy merchant pretended to hesitate to look at the dozens of thin Han people, most of whom were young children and elderly people.
After dealing with the grassland people for a month or two, the spy merchant felt that he could still suppress him, so he hesitated and shook his head: "The same thing, it's useless to take these people back. I won't accept them, so I'll say goodbye!"
As he said that, he shouted: "Get out and go to the next tribe!"
The Hu Ben Eagle Strike Army retreated neatly. The tribe leader was about to cry. He gritted his teeth and grabbed the spy businessman again: "Negotiable, one bucket of grain is exchanged for three!"
The spy merchant looked at him and frowned. Seeing that the spy was like this, the leader had already knelt down and kowtowed: "Negotiable, you should be kind to the extent that our tribe has contributed 200 young and strong to you."
"Oh, you old guy, forget it, there will be no such good thing next time.
Give food!”
The spy businessman shouted, and more than a dozen people ran out of the guards, and the price of three people was exchanged for dozens of old and weak people.
Such scenes are staged everywhere in the grassland.
However, in some places, people still need force cooperation, and the grassland people are not that honest, especially the large tribes.
Fortunately, the Tiger Ben Eagle Strike Army each had one to do ten, and with excellent equipment, they could deal with it even if the number was not overwhelming.
These spies and merchants have been out for almost two months, and have also sent back a group of Han people during this period. More than a dozen caravans have brought back tens of thousands of Han people.
This is the second round. As long as Kou Bian on the grassland does not stop, the business of substitution can continue.
There is no need to worry that the population of border counties is insufficient. The grasslands here will be plundered, and the courts will move people to the border. The Han Dynasty has been consuming the population in this way for 70 years.
Western Liaoning.
Five hundred You Yijun entered Liaoxi County through the gap in the Great Wall.
They dress like most grassland people and plunder things like most grasslands.
However, their direction was approaching Liaodong County little by little, and some grassland people who had seen the powerful strength of You Yijun also followed suit and wanted to get a bargain.
——
Liaodong.
Prefect's Mansion.
Zhang Qi and Zhang Yi exchanged greetings for a while and then went straight to the topic.
"Qi Ke has the confidence to guard the gateway of western Liaoning for me?"
"This is natural. Since I dare to come, it means I have a clear understanding."
Zhang Qi looked indifferent. Judging from his performance, Zhang Yi believed it six points.
"But you only brought five hundred people, this."
Zhang Yi was not full of words, but everyone present understood the meaning.
"There are not many soldiers, and only the grassland bandits can exceed tens of thousands of people!"
"Hmph, arrogant!"
As soon as Zhang Qi finished speaking, Zhang Yi had not answered yet, but the young general behind him couldn't help but speak.
Zhang Qining looked at the man and felt cold all over.
In the outside world and the inner world, Zhang Qi has killed countless people. After he has been in the position for a long time, he has developed a terrifying aura. This aura cannot be afforded by this defender general who only stays in the city to defend.
"Boer--" Zhang Yi spoke out loud, he communicated with Zhang Qi, and it was a rude thing to speak out without his approval.
Zhang Qi waved his hand, then continued to look at the young general who was called Boer, and asked, "Now the young general is credible."
The young general nodded with anger on his face, but the glance just now scared him.
"Hahaha, I can use my skills to scare me, this incompetent child at a glance."
Zhang Yi was trying to smooth things over, and Zhang Qi smiled: "The prefect doesn't have to worry too much. I succeed, it is useful to the prefect. If I fail, the prefect will not be whispered. After all, this is true in the five counties, who can blame the prefect.
Woolen cloth."
"It's extreme, it's the ultimate. Qi's words are reasonable. It's my daughter who has acted. Since Qi helps me, Liaodong is stable!"
"Report————"
Just when Zhang Yi wanted to say something to Zhang Qi, a quick message came from outside the door.
"Urgent military information, more than 10,000 bandits in Liaoxi County gathered, and they have passed Wuwu County!"
"What!"
Zhang Yi stood up in shock. The gateway to western Liaoning was Wuwu County, who was still talking about, but he didn't expect that tens of thousands of grassland bandits gathered at this moment.
They were on guarding the city and fighting in the field, and they could only be discouraged.
Everyone couldn't help but look at Zhang Qi, and Zhang Qi smiled.
"Haha, I'll earn military merits for the prefect!"
After saying that, he got up and left.
The street in front of the prefect's mansion.
Zhang Qi yelled: "A enemy comes, get on the horse and crush them!"
"Roar--!"
The neat and powerful steps made the tiles on both sides of the street tremble, and Zhang Yi and others followed him with intuition and courage.
Zhang Qi turned around and bowed: "Please also ask the prefect to order!"
Zhang Yi hesitated slightly, but soon he waved, and a token representing his identity was handed over to Zhang Qi.
After obtaining this land and the pass equivalent to the five counties, Zhang Qi smiled slightly, turned over and took the horse and took the people away.
One day later.
The villages and countryside outside Wuwu County are shrill.
Women are raped and men are attacked.
Tens of thousands of grassland people flocked into this land, and they vented with a grim smile.
They snatched all the property, population, food, livestock, and what they could rob, but the countryside in a county could not satisfy their appetite, and everyone looked at the grassland forces that had the greatest harvest.
Seventy percent of the property in a county fell into their hands, and they also recognized it.
Hu Shui laughed with a ferocious face: "What are you waiting for? Follow me in the next county!"
"roar--"
