The young herder jumped off his horse and rushed to the Liao general, with anger erupting in his eyes.

He didn't have any weapon in his hand, so he simply pulled off the iron helmet from the Liao general's head, raised it high, and smacked it hard on his face!

With a bang, blood splattered everywhere. The young herder who had lost his father seemed to go crazy. He held the iron helmet of the Liao general and slammed his head and face desperately. The bang sounded muffled and echoed continuously on the grassland.

After a commotion, an angry roar broke out among the herdsmen. Many strong herdsmen jumped on their horses and ran wildly to the Liao soldiers, then jumped off their horses, snatched their steel knives, and slashed them hard, and their movements were extremely fierce. Until the blood of the big bunch was sprayed on their faces, the herdsmen still slashed hard, venting the long-standing anger in their hearts.

Luo Dacheng stood on the grassland and silently watched the bloody and tragic scene.

The herdsmen on the grassland are so violent, or called bloody. Such qualities are exactly what they need, warriors who resist the tyranny of the Khitans!

The horse galloped, bringing the sound of horse hooves, and it rang behind him.

Meng Yilan, wearing the costume of a silencer, rode his horse into the grassland, raised his head high, and shouted loudly in a crisp voice: "The herdsmen on the grassland, I am Meng Yilan from the Trey tribe! These brutal Khitans bullied you, snatched your horses and sheep, and even wanted to sell you into slaves. Don't you want to resist?"

The herdsmen who were struggling to kill the Liao soldiers stopped and looked at the girl on the horse's back. Someone asked loudly: "We don't have weapons, how can we resist? Moreover, our number is too small. The original tribe was defeated by the Khitans, the chief was killed, and everyone was broken up. We fled here from afar, but in the end we could not escape the palm of the Khitans! They are too powerful, we can't beat them!"

Luo Dacheng frowned slightly and shouted loudly: "What are the powerful Khitans? I have killed the Khitans and can form several thousand cavalry teams! If there are no weapons, I can give you weapons, it depends on whether you are willing to resist!"

The herders were in agitation. Looking at him in awe, one of the herders asked loudly: "Do you want us to join the Trek?"

On the horse's back, the girl Zubu, full of wild beauty, shook her head vigorously in the wind and said loudly: "No! The Trey tribe is far away, and our soldiers can't catch up for a while; you should have a new tribe leader, this great hero from afar!"

Her hand swept across the grassland and pointed firmly at the tall and strong man standing high above the grassland!

...

The herders on the grassland need the protection of powerful forces, otherwise, the bandits will easily attack them, steal their horses and sheep, and kill their relatives; the attacks of the Liao soldiers also posed great danger to them.

Generally speaking, herders will rely on a tribe. The tribes are big and small, and the tribe leaders have their own armed forces to protect the safety of the herders. If he does not have the ability to protect the herders, the herders will leave him and seek a stronger tribe.

Fights occur between tribes to compete for property, horses and sheep, or herdsmen under their jurisdiction. Strong tribes annex weak tribes, and such things often happen on the grasslands.

The various nomadic tribes on the grassland are actually in the stage of division. They survive in the form of tribes and are called the Shubu people or the Tatars by the Khitans. They cannot be integrated into a whole and are more likely to be defeated by the Khitans one by one, controlling the entire grassland in the hands of the Khitans and becoming vassals of the Khitans.

However, the cruel exploitation of the Khitans made it unbearable for the herdsmen on the grassland.

For the people who stopped the Bubu, the Liao emperor asked for a quota of 1,400 horses, 440 camels, 10,000 minks, and 2,500 green rats. The officials of the Khitan often increased the number of tributes at will, forcing the chiefs of major tribes to present the tributes they requested to fill their personal pockets. If they did not follow, they would blame and insult them, and threaten them for sending troops to conquer them, and even kill the chiefs of various tribes at will, which often caused the resistance of the people who stopped the Bububu.

The last time when the Ganzhou Uighurs was conquered, it was because the Liao general ordered the killing of a chief of Bu Bu, which caused anger and rebellion among all tribes. After many hard battles with the Liao Kingdom, many tribes were dispersed and the chiefs were killed, just like Meng Yilan's father, Changlebihu, the famous hero on the grassland ended up like this.

These hundreds of herders were part of other defeated tribes. Fearing the pursuit of the Liao soldiers, these hundreds of herders had to escape from the original tribes and look for pastures with abundant water and grass to herd sheep and raise horses.

But the herdsmen without military protection are like a piece of delicious fat meat, which can be swallowed up by thieves and Liao soldiers at any time.

After Meng Yilan proposed this idea, the herdsmen who saw Luo Dacheng's divine power eagerly begged Luo Dacheng to stay, protect them, and become their leaders. They were willing to treat him respectfully with the manners of treating the leader, and to offer him a horse and a delicious lamb, and to dedicate their property to him, just like the chiefs of the past.

As the daughter of the tribe leader, Meng Yilan is not unfamiliar with all kinds of trivial matters of establishing a new tribe. At her request, Luo Dacheng handed over all the affairs of the new tribes to her, and she helped herself establish a small tribe according to the customs of the tribes on the grassland. Although she was wondering why she no longer rushed back to the Telie tribe, he did not ask her--or because she didn't want to hear an answer to this question.

However, Luo Dacheng, who has thousands of years of historical knowledge, could not be satisfied with being the leader of a primitive tribe. On the system proposed by Meng Yilan, he added his own ideas, intending to build this small tribe into a sample of his future larger tribe.

All male herders, as long as they are of the right age, will become his soldiers and conduct military training under his guidance.

Of course, at most, they should let them go back to herd sheep and herd horses to ensure adequate food.

Luo Dacheng did not want to set the tax they collected very high, but only set the tax according to the general circumstances on the grassland. At the same time, partial exemption can be made to the homes of soldiers who joined the army to make them live a more relaxed life.

In fact, Luo Dacheng didn't take the taxes from these few hundred herders seriously. However, he had to focus on the future. If he could have a large tribe in the future, the savings he brought alone would not be enough. The tribe must have its own fiscal revenue.

The warriors' armor and weapons were all ready-made. Shen Wubao left all the spoils that Luo Dacheng got on the road, and left many thank-you gifts. He thanked him and went deep into the grassland to find buyers so that he could sell his expensive goods.

Before this, Luo Dacheng bought all the weapons he brought, except for what his subordinates wanted to use, and bought all the rest. He also bought some other goods needed and stored them.

Luo Dacheng is not short of money now, but he needs goods from the Han area very much, and more so, weapons and armor to equip his subordinates. As for the value of these goods, he only paid some gems, which surprised Shen Wubao and said that these were enough.

Shen Wubao is not unfaithful businessman, but when facing Luo Dacheng, he always thinks of the consequences of the black-faced Liao general, and he feels like he is brave and soul-breaking. Therefore, if he wants to cheat Luo Dacheng of money, he would rather go back and secretly cut himself than do this dangerous thing that may be lifeless.

Some of his subordinates were willing to stay and help Luo Dacheng manage this small tribe. Because Luo Dacheng gave a very high reward, so high that they could not help but be moved--they were originally outlaws and would do the beheading business in order to make money. Luo Dacheng promised to be responsible for their safety, and they would rather believe this surprisingly powerful man.

When Shen Wubao left with the caravan, Luo Dacheng sent them outside his control area, bid farewell to each other, and agreed that if there is a chance in the future, he would definitely cooperate more.

Next, Luo Dacheng had to face his tribe and work hard to manage this small tribe.

The name of his tribe was chosen by him personally, and it was named:

Hua Lie!

...

Luo Dacheng rode a horse and wandered around the grassland. Looking at the wild horses and lambs, the breeze hit, carrying the fragrance of grass, which made him feel leisurely and happy.

A large part of these horses and lambs in front of him are his personal property, but they are war horses he snatched from the Khitan to grazing here, without having to worry about taking care of them. Just let them find the lush aquatic plants on the grassland to eat.

There are also some that were tributed to him by the herdsmen. Luo Dacheng's four-legged property was stocked on the grassland, and the herdsmen were taken care of and carefully cared for him, so they did not dare to make any mistakes.

Now all the affairs of this small tribe are gradually getting on the right track. Most of the affairs at the beginning are managed by Meng Yilan, and Di Liniang is also helping her, working hard to learn the knowledge of managing the tribe so that she can share her worries.

The few Han people who stayed also became Luo Dacheng's helpers, and the finances were managed by a Han tent clerk who knew the words. Luo Dacheng also selected smart and capable subordinates from the herdsmen to help him manage this small tribe.

Regarding Meng Yilan's opinion, he revised his tribal system and defined his military household system as a military household system that integrates military and civilians. Currently, there are only three hundred households, managed by three powerful herders who swore allegiance to him. They usually carry out grazing activities. If there is a battle, they must be organized at any time to face any possible enemy.
