When the Yanbian mobilization order was issued by the Han Dynasty, the Qingqiang and Faqiang in the Qinghai-Tibet region were already at war with the Zhangshung Dynasty.
More importantly, Qingqiang and Faqiang were very adamant and did not send any news to the Han Dynasty. After Lin Dai ran back, he discussed it with the leader of Qingqiang. The two sides gathered 7,000 infantrymen, changed their weapons and then
Kill them and start a fight with the Shang Shung Dynasty.
Logically speaking, this seems to be a very unreasonable situation. In fact, how should I put it? Faqiang and Qingqiang's positioning of themselves and Chen Xi's positioning of Faqiang and Qingqiang are two different things.
Chen Xi positioned the Faqiang and Qingqiang as his own brothers, young and old, in border and poor areas who needed help. Arranging their lives and letting them live there was success.
However, Qingqiang and Faqiang were positioned as Yanbian guards who received supplies from the Han Dynasty. Originally, the Qiang people did not have such energy to engage in such things, but they could not resist Chen Xi's large supply.
So Qingqiang and Faqiang didn't want to lose their jobs at all. After all, when there was a heavy snowfall in the past, there was no food, and so many people in the tribe had to die. Now they are going to war with someone who doesn't know what they are, and they will die if they survive.
Hundreds or thousands of people, this is not a problem at all for the Qiang people who are used to natural elimination.
What's more, no matter whether you win or lose, you will get a pension, you will get a reward if you win, and you can also plunder the opponent, which is an absolute profit. Even if you lose, you can protect your capital without losing money with the Han Dynasty behind you.
When the leaders of Qingqiang and Faqiang are combined, what else is there to say? Just fuck him! The Han Dynasty asked us to go to Qinghai and Tibet, and gave us so many weapons and equipment, so many supplies, just to let us defend the Han Dynasty.
On the border of the Han Dynasty, they are fighting for the Han Dynasty, and Sima Lang is a rebel!
If Chen Xi knew the slogans of Qing Qiang and Fa Qiang when they went out to war, there is a high probability that they would not know what to say. I never asked you to guard the borders of the Han Dynasty. I just sent you some supplies and told you to stay where you are and don't move.
Don't make trouble for me!
Needless to say later, Qingqiang and Faqiang are really better equipped than Xiangxiong, and they are tougher than Xiangxiong. Their inheritance is relatively complete. More importantly, these two things are very shady, especially before Lin Dai.
Pretending to save face, he turned around and left, which made the Shangshung Dynasty a little careless. In the end, he turned around and led the people together, and directly captured the tribe.
"That's it?" Yang Pu laughed at the tribal warrior who scolded him before.
"A group of mostly bronze guys are looking for death by fighting us in full body armor." Lin Dai counted the harvest and was in a very good mood. What is the Yanbian Guard Corps? Let's see if what we did is very good, and then he patted it.
I am very satisfied with my own chain armor, "How could I wear this kind of armor before? Let's go, keep killing. Who dares to stop the Xiangxiong Dynasty from our heavenly soldiers of the Han Dynasty!"
Because there were so many chain armors made, they were all dismantled and used as horse armor. Chen Xi has even semi-relaxed the regulations on the use of chain armor. When Qingqiang and Faqiang came up, Chen Xi also approved it.
A lot of equipment, chain armor is one of them.
The Qiang people's morale increased sharply. When they fought against the Han Dynasty, they had never encountered this kind of situation where they were fighting against novices. The equipment on both sides was also rubbish. There was no chance that the other side would shoot them up, and they could only be knocked to the ground.
The situation is like getting up with bruises and continuing to fight.
This kind of crushing equipment made the Qiang leader so happy, so he divided 200 people and escorted more than 3,000 prisoners of Xiangxiong tribe to the rear. The plundered materials were also sent back together, and then he continued with the main force.
Go deep into the Qinghai-Tibet region.
Although there is no map or guide, the Qiang people have lived in the Qinghai-Tibet area for many years and can generally find water sources. In addition, the leader, Lin Dai, is quite cautious, so there is no problem with this way of marching and hunting.
.
"It's a bit of a loss." About half a month later, Lindai and his men found a new tribe. After easily defeating them, Lindai discovered a problem. It would be a loss for them to capture these people.
, they are not management masters like the old Yuan family, and they do not have Chen Xi's means to organize these serfs for production.
The outrageous territory of the Qinghai-Tibet region made Lindai lead an armed parade of 7,000 people. After the pursuit distance exceeded a certain level, the property plundered was not much more than what they consumed during the hunting process, plus counting
There seems to be some loss in escorting the captives back.
"How about that." A small-headed man gestured with a chopping motion. They don't have a complete concept of good and evil. Since they can't take advantage, they just click away. Anyway, their mission is very clear, to protect the Qinghai-Tibet-Yanbian region for the country.
, the enemy is gone, doesn’t that solve the problem?
"It would be a loss if we kill him." Lin Dai was a little depressed. This situation was the most embarrassing. His enthusiasm for serving the country at the beginning had cooled down a lot under the influence of reality. Lin Dai found that it seemed that it was not worth cleaning up Shang Hung.
ah.
Unlike the Longxi area, where the Qiang people compete with each other, as long as they are strong, they will basically not suffer. However, the output of agriculture and animal husbandry in the Qinghai-Tibet area is very low, and they have to travel too far to rob each other, especially people like neighboring countries.
In such a large-scale dispatch, the loot may not be as much as it is consumed.
After all, the entire Qinghai-Tibet area is two million square kilometers. The Shangshung Dynasty plus some small states and some unknown small tribes can support only 600,000 people.
Among them, the population of the Shangshung Dynasty is 400,000. Except for a few small cities, the rest are scattered throughout Qinghai-Tibet. In this case, as long as the neighbors can be found, it is definitely not a problem to defeat them one by one, but the problem is
, how to find it on such a vast territory.
I ate 21,000 geese in one month, and my neighbor's heart was bleeding. This is a big goose that can continuously lay eggs and reproduce. In the past, I always picked the old ones and those who couldn't lay eggs well. But as soon as I went to war,
My mentality is shattered. Why are these people so poor?
"Well, boss, how about I go down and look for any traffickers?" Yang Pu thought for a while and said, he had a small circle in Liangzhou and had some connections.
"Okay, let them pay the official money. With the official money, we can buy some sheep and geese from the Hanzhong official." Lin Dai thought for a while, this is also an idea. As for the Han Dynasty prohibiting the sale of human beings,
Can you speak Chinese? No, it’s not just a re-education introduction fee. Do you have a household registration? No? If not, then it’s not human trafficking.
Chen Xi has no way to stop this kind of behavior. He can only learn from Rome in this aspect. People with Han household registration, no matter where they are derogated as slaves, as long as they set foot on the territory of the Han Dynasty, his slave status
will be eliminated.
This is the case for Roman citizens. As long as they are not deprived of their citizenship, Rome has an obligation to save its own citizens. Of course, this is really just an obligation.
Because there were not many times when Rome was really strong enough to ask for its own citizens from other countries. Other times, it was more of these citizens who escaped. As long as they escaped and returned to Rome, they would be successful.
As for other countries being caught by the Han Dynasty to replenish their populations, Chen Xi could only look at it. After all, no matter how much love you have, there is no way to benefit everyone. The world has never been changed by the so-called love and courage.
, so let’s keep working hard.
"Why don't we just exchange them for sheep and geese, but instead exchange them for money, and then go to Hanzhong County to buy sheep and geese?" Yang servant asked strangely.
"Because we directly exchange for sheep and geese, those merchants give less." Lin Dai said quietly, "They will make money from both sides, but we use official money to exchange for sheep and geese, and when the time comes, we will wear sheepskins.
, which means that if we guard the border here, it will be much cheaper for the authorities."
In fact, it's not that the official government is cheap, but because Chen Xi is helping the poor. Chen Xi has nailed down the daily necessities across the country, and the prices of other supplies in various places only fluctuate within a certain range, and when it comes to old, young, border and poor areas, okay,
I made a poverty alleviation list and provided quantitative poverty alleviation.
The reason why it is quantitative poverty alleviation is actually to avoid the impact of low-priced materials on the market by reselling low-priced materials in poverty alleviation places. After all, these things are the prices within Chen Xi's industry, which completely flattens the costs and only calculates labor and factory depreciation.
Super low price.
So much so that when people in the Qinghai-Tibet area buy seedlings, they are so cheap that the local people think the officials are crazy. Goose seedlings cost two cents each. This is why Qingqiang and Faqiang raise more than 900,000 geese. They raise more than 900,000 geese every year.
They all rush to buy up the goose seedlings.
It's a pity that Qingqiang and Faqiang are basically poor people. They are reluctant to sell the geese and sheep they have raised. They can't buy the official seedlings every year, so they always think that the official prices are super low, and they have never considered that the official prices are really low.
Targeted poverty alleviation.
"Is that so? Speaking of the Wu family's business in the Western Regions, how much do goose seedlings cost?" Yang servant asked curiously. The Wu family is considered a fairly fair businessman in the Western Regions.
"If the scale is big enough, it will cost five cents." Lindai said casually.
"Where is the official side of Hanzhong?" Yang Pu has not been involved in logistics. This is a matter that the clan leaders are responsible for. He is just a reserve leader. He has never understood it before.
"Even if you buy each one, it will cost you two cents. If you buy more, you will get some as a gift. I suggest you find that lame man at that time. The lame man is not good at math and will make mistakes when counting. Dozens. It is normal to have one or two more.
, the others fought to death and gave some goose seedlings as gifts in the end." Lindai said casually, what is experience, this is experience.
In fact, the lame man has no problem with counting. The lame man is a veteran who has been resettled after being discharged from the army. He knows the clear regulations. Although this thing is never posted or told to others, if you buy a hundred, you will get three or four as a gift. If you buy a thousand,
Get fifty or sixty for free, buy ten thousand, get one or two for ten, you just have to make sure of it.
When Lindai goes shopping, he usually brings 100,000 yuan, which can buy about 56,700 seedlings, so every time he goes to Lindai, he will bring a jar of highland barley wine, a dried goose, etc.
