The time has soon entered August, and the autumn harvest has begun in various places in Dashan.
While the Jin Dynasty was immersed in joy, the Huns army outside the pass had begun to march westward, and they had received orders from Shan Yu.
The impact of the food supply cutoff was undoubtedly the greatest on the ministries on the southern front, so their actions were very slow.
After the King of Beihai advanced his army for more than a hundred miles to the west, he ordered Yu Lixi, the returning King of Ding Ling, to return to Tianyu Pass with his envoy.
"Brother, this time you go to Tianyuguan, you must use your brain more to let Nanchao continue to send food!"
Hearing this, Yu Rich felt that he had a heavy responsibility, so he nodded his head very solemnly.
When he was in the Western Regions, King Ding Ling fought with the Western Barbarians. The more he learned about the Western Barbarians, the clearer he became that the Xiongnu were no match for the Western Barbarians.
Originally, he thought that the Xiongnu would also be destroyed by the Western Barbarians and become slaves of one of the powerful tribes, and that the tribesmen would die on some unknown charge.
So in recent years, Jürich has been pessimistic and desperate.
But after two months of traveling within the Pass, when he saw the vast mountains and rivers of the Southern Dynasties, saw the fortified cities one after another, and the boundless wheat fields... Yu Lixi saw hope again.
The hope of resisting the Western Barbarians!
Therefore, Yu Richi was more concerned than anyone else about making peace with the Jin court.
After listening to Beihai King's last instructions, Yu Lixi left with the team.
In his line of work, he left with the expectations of his tribe, so Yurich felt particularly heavy.
It can be said that now in the entire grassland, everyone, men, women, old and young, is very sad, and only those in the grassland are happy.

Next to the wheat field, Laurent was harvesting wheat in the field with a sickle and a group of governor-general officials.
After Zhao Yanxun came to power, because the emperor liked to go to the fields, and also liked to take officials to the fields, this caused a trend inside and outside the court.
As the saying goes, in order to express their loyalty to the emperor and show their emphasis on farming, many local officials went to work in the fields.
But Luo Lun is different from these people. With Zhao Yanxun's trust in him, he doesn't need to put on a show.
Now he is taking officials from the Governor's Office to the fields. He just wants to set an example and show that he attaches great importance to farming itself.
However, Luo Lun is also an old man, so after working for two and a half hours, his old waist couldn't stand it anymore.
Sitting on the edge of the ground with several elderly officials, Laurent took a sip of water and felt refreshed.
“This year’s harvest will be great, the clothes of the country will be great!”
Several officials around him nodded one after another, and then started the flattering mode.
The first one to praise is naturally the emperor who is far away in the capital, followed by Luo Lun for his good governance.
At this time, Luo Lun would not disturb the scenery, so he listened quietly.
After about a few minutes, an official came over and reported that the person he was looking for had arrived.
So Luo Lun stood up, dressed like an old farmer, and walked towards the direction where the official came from.
In the open space not far away, hundreds of people had gathered at this moment, and all of them were dressed in colorful clothes.
The northwest is poor, and after encountering the zombie chaos, the conditions in this place are even worse. It is really rare to see so many "noble people" in the fields.
On the contrary, Luo Lun, an old farmer, seemed out of place here.
"The Governor has arrived, and you are still not polite?" the official leading the way shouted loudly.
After hearing this, everyone really confirmed that the person in front of them was Emperor Huigu, Luo Lun, the governor of the two northwest counties.
"Meet Mr. Luo!"
All the people, old and young, in fine clothes, all bowed to an old farmer.
Luo Lun smiled slightly, signaled everyone to excuse themselves, and then asked: "You guys have come all the way, how are you used to living in the northwest now?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone felt uncomfortable because they were originally powerful people, but now they were exiled to the northwest.
Although their fields, houses, food and property were confiscated, their clothes were not confiscated by the government.
Gu Wei
When the governor summoned them, they naturally paid special attention to it, so they all dressed up to attend, which led to the reverse scene before them.
When asked by Luo Lun, no one at the scene answered, mainly because they were not in the mood to answer.
To say that you are living a good life is to deceive yourself and others, and it feels aggrieved to say it.
To say that I was not doing well would be asking for trouble, so I just stopped talking.
Luo Lun suppressed his smile and said in a calm tone: "As long as you come, let's settle down. You are all smart people, so I don't need to explain these principles!"
"Although you have sinned, you will atone for your sins by coming to the northwest!"
"You need to calm down as soon as possible and adapt to life here as soon as possible. You are all smart. It is not too difficult to lead the clan to rebuild a new family business!
Over the past year or so, nearly 100,000 people have been exiled to the northwest.
These people are knowledgeable and capable, and it will undoubtedly be of great benefit to appease them to integrate into the Northwest as soon as possible.
So during the autumn harvest, when the last batch of exiles from the south arrived, Laurent summoned these people.
"Within three years, if a family pays more taxes to the government, I will report to the emperor to grant them amnesty and allow them to return to their hometown!"
“Return the fields, houses, land and houses!”
If his previous words gave hope to everyone present, then his words just now ignited their fighting spirit.
Returning to their hometown and regaining everything is something they never dare to dream of.
If others said these words, they would definitely sneer at it, but after all, it was Luo Lun who said it, so it is really possible for it to come true.
Seeing everyone's mentality change, Luo Lun smiled. This was the result he wanted.
Next, he tried hard with these people and told them that as long as they kept their feet on the ground, the land and food would not let them down.
Half an hour later, these people left with hope. It was foreseeable that the 100,000 people behind them would work hard in the next few years.
"My lord, do you really want to report to the emperor and grant amnesty to those among them? Will the emperor agree?"
"What's wrong?" Lauren said with a smile.
How could the emperor disagree with such a cost-effective deal? After all, it is okay to cooperate with the Huns for profit.
Just when I thought of the Huns, I saw a flying horse galloping in the distance, and finally stopped not far from Luolun.
"Sir, there is an urgent military situation at Tianyu Pass!"
Taking the letter from the courier, Lauren took a quick look and a smile appeared on his face.
The Xiongnu peace envoys came again, and they were ordered by the new Shanyu to show their sincerity and marched the army westward.
"Sir, it seems that the reconciliation between the two countries should be put on the agenda!" the official on the side said extremely cautiously.
"Getting back together? There's no rush now!"
"Even if the Xiongnu army marches westward, it still hasn't blocked Tianshan County. What benefit will it bring to our country?"
"What's more, what he said about heading west is true? How can we trust the cunning barbarians!"
The officials present nodded. They had no way to intervene in this matter, and it was solely up to Luo Lun to make the decision.
After putting away the letter and walking around twice, Luo Lun said to the messenger: "Go and tell the Huns to send their troops to Tianshan County first and then come to talk to us!"
"yes!"
If this requirement cannot be met, then there is no need to negotiate. Anyway, Luo Lun is not too panicked. After all, the imperial army has entered Tianshan County.
At this point, Luo Lun and Zhao Yanxun were not on the same page.
One person only needs to take care of the two northwest counties, while the other person has to consider all directions in Jiuzhou.
After the messenger left, Laurent led the officials back to the fields. At this moment, he still had a question in his mind.
Is Yushan Chanyu secure in his position? Can he represent the Huns?
