"Ah, what the teacher said is true, then what about the other two diseases?" Yu Gong nodded in agreement.
"Second, Changyang is short of food, resulting in many refugees, which can easily lead to disasters!"
"Ah, this matter has bothered me for a long time, but I have no choice but to say that Changyang is a vast land with few people. What a pity!"
"Great Chief, the tribal population migrating from various places now is the perfect opportunity to solve this problem. This can allow these newly relocated tribes to significantly increase food production, increase the strength of our tribe, and avoid large-scale refugees due to food shortages. **As long as most of the local nobles are settled and planted on the ground, the disaster of swords and weapons will not cause trouble in all affairs. The chief should take this matter as a priority."
Yu Gong said with a troubled expression: "What the teacher said is true. It's just a matter of granting a fief. According to the ancestral teachings, it must be a person who has made military exploits or has contributed to the development of the tribe... This matter cannot be solved in two or three days. of"
Julong seemed to have already anticipated Yugong's concerns and said with a smile: "Yes, and this is related to our third hidden danger - Shanzhu."
"In the Jinling Mountains to the north of the city, there are countless ferocious Shanrong tribes hiding. They often go down the mountain to plunder, which makes our Changyang people miserable and poses a huge threat to the safety of our Yandi tribe. Emperor Yan ordered the chief to come here to manage it. Changyang is to resist the invasion of these Shanrong. Therefore, we can organize the warriors of these newly moved tribes to enter the mountains to exterminate the Shanrong and the fiefdom. In fact, the same thing can be done well. The three disasters can be done at the same time. If we don't manage to disappear invisible, all three disasters will happen at the same time. Let alone our Changyang tribe, even the entire Yandi tribe may be in danger of being flooded!"
Yu Zeng fell into deep thought and kept thinking about Julong's insights. Julong's insights are simple and easy to understand. The problem is how to execute and issue tasks and how to enable the newly relocated tribesmen, large and small, to quickly perform meritorious services and obtain fiefdoms.
Suddenly, a guard hurried in: "Report, the chief of the Chinese tribe Hua Xi has an audience."
At this moment, Yu Zeng was worried. He waved his hand impatiently and shouted: "Didn't I tell you that if you want to receive the fief mission, just go directly to the officials outside. I don't have time to receive them now. Everyone comes to me. I still have When will government affairs be handled?”
The guard was stunned for a while, then whispered: "Great Chief, that clan chief has taken a Shanrong prisoner into custody..."
Yugong and Julong were stunned at the same time, and they looked at each other for a moment.
"Oh, someone actually captured the mountain garrison alive?" Julong said slightly surprised.
"In that case, let him come in!" A trace of excitement flashed in Yugong's eyes.
After the guards retreated, Julong straightened his back and said in a long voice: "Great Chief, the mountain garrison is harming one side, and it will become a serious problem over time. It has been a long time since the warriors who went into the mountain to wipe out the mountain garrison have appeared! This time, this Chinese tribe is actually We even captured one alive, which is quite unexpected!"
"What the teacher said is true!" Yu Zeng couldn't hide his inner excitement, and his tone obviously changed slightly.
"Hua Xi has met the chief!" Not long after, Hua Xi and Bai Zhan escorted the mountain garrison leader into the yard and shouted in unison
"So it's you? Hua Xi! Good! Good! Good -"
At this moment, Yugong realized that it was the stranger who had visited him that day. By the way, he also presented a piece of rare and exquisite "pottery" to him. Now he saw that he unexpectedly captured the mountain garrison leader alive, and he was very surprised.
"Are you Hua Xi?" The old man Julong stood up and walked up to Hua Xi with his hands behind his back.
"Yes!" Hua Xi was neither humble nor arrogant. She raised her chest and raised her head to meet Julong's gaze and said with a smile.
"Well, not bad! You have a lot of talents! I heard from the chief that you are the first person from a foreign land to claim a fief in the past few years?"
"The chief is in love! This junior is just doing his duty!"
"Okay! You did a great job. Let me tell you how you captured this mountain garrison alive?" Julong saw many minor injuries on Hua Xi and Bai Zhan (actually they were accidentally injured when the tribesmen in the city smashed things against the mountain garrison).
people), was very moved, and could not help but have a strong curiosity about Hua Xi’s process of capturing Shan Gong alive.
So, Hua Xi roughly told the story of how he captured the famous mountain garrison alive, and there was inevitably a bit of exaggeration in it. However, in the eyes of the experienced Julong and the majestic Yugong, Hua Xi's words were natural and melody.
There is no falsehood, it is a completely true report.
However, upon hearing what they heard later, both Julong and Yugong were more interested in the mountain garrison tribes and some of the terrain that Hua Xi had detected.
Yugong was surprised and said: "You actually went into the depths of Jinling to conduct reconnaissance? Were you not discovered by the mountain garrison?"
Listening to the tone, Julong seemed a little doubtful. Hua Xi explained calmly: "The innermost place I entered was not the depths of Jinling. After several days of exploration, there are not many paths into Jinling. As far as I know,
There are only two of them, and they are inconvenient to walk. In addition, there are an astonishing number of mountain guards living around. If I guessed correctly, we are only active in the outer area of Jinling. I am afraid that the number of mountain guards harbored in Jinling is not the current number.
What I saw”
"Ah!" Julong and Yugong couldn't help but sucked in a breath of cold air at the same time, and their vigilance against Shanzhu increased to another level.
Fortunately, both Julong and Yugong knew that the mountain garrison in the Jinling area did not control each other, and attacks on each other often occurred. Although there were many people, they only fought in a den when nothing happened, and hugged together when something happened.
It will still be the same after the danger is over
"I haven't had any information about these Shanrong tribes for a long time. Come here, please bring me a map. Please tell me their specific strength and location."
"Yes!" Hua Xi replied loudly without hesitation. If there was a slight delay at this time, it was impossible to tell what the two people would think of him.
During half a cup of tea, two servants took out a map sewn with animal skins and spread it on the desks of the Yugeng people. It was a simple map of rivers, mountains, plains.
Hua Xi took a closer look and immediately pointed to a few places and said: "This, this, and here are three mountain garrison tribes with 2,000 to 5,000 people respectively. The other flat areas where people can live together are scattered everywhere.
The mountain garrison is filled with large and small tribes. Almost everyone has a hunting bow and a spear, and their fighting ability is quite good. I believe the chief knows this better than me. These two places should be the trails leading to the depths of Jinling.
But I don’t dare to step forward, so I’m not sure——”
Under Hua Xi's identification, an official quickly marked the animal skin map with a piece of charcoal.
"Very good! You investigated very carefully, plus these 8 mountain garrison heads and a mountain garrison leader prisoner, your merits are enough to get you a fiefdom." It can be seen that Yu Gong inquired about Hua Xi
I was very satisfied with the situation when I arrived, and there was a long-lost joy on my face.
"Teacher, in your opinion, this fiefdom should..." Yugong kicked the ball to Julong and asked
Julong thought for a while and said solemnly: "This time, the Huaxi clan leader is the first foreigner to migrate here in recent years and has accomplished such a remarkable feat. The fiefdom can be appropriately increased on the basis of the original reward.
Show the great chief’s grace and power!”
Yugong nodded in agreement, pondered for a moment, and then said: "In that case, I will give you Jiuling, ten miles north of the city, with a total of 200 acres of land. What do you think?"
Jiuling, Hua Xi didn't know anything about this place at all, but when he heard that there were two hundred acres of land, he had a slightly strange feeling in his heart: Although this mission was dangerous, it also informed some important military information about the outskirts of Jinling.
Two hundred acres is indeed more in line with this price, but Yu Zeng's character is not that of such a generous person. Could it be...
Hua Xi did not hesitate, and immediately responded with great joy and satisfaction: "Thanks to the great chief for your grace, the common people will definitely..."
Julong brushed his beard and said with a smile: "Chief Hua Xi, as long as you make more military exploits in the future, your fiefdom can continue to expand."
Hua Xi bowed and said it was the end. After Hua Xi and Baizhan said goodbye to Yugeng and Julong, they planned to go around the market to see the current market conditions.
After Hua Xi and Bai Hou left his sight, Yu Gong immediately turned his head and said to Julong: "Teacher, it seems that the fighting power of these newly moved tribes is not bad now. You see, a small group of dozens of slaves is just a small group."
The tribe can kill a 9-man mountain garrison team in one day. Come to think of it, this disaster on the side of the bed will soon be removed and a large number of fiefs can be granted. I, Changyang's food..."
Julong shook his head: "Don't kill a few mountain garrison carelessly and attack a mountain garrison tribe. Those are completely different things. What's more, this person named Hua Xi only managed to defeat a small team with an ambush attack. Just like a mountain garrison, these
If the newly relocated tribes had not stopped them, they would not have been able to defeat those fierce mountain garrison armies."
"Ah, what can I do?"
"The chief does not need to worry. We only need to organize these newly relocated tribes and draw tribesmen from them to form an army. Then we can enter the mountains and wipe out the mountain garrison. In addition, a new announcement must be issued to remove some loyal and capable nobles from the chief.
Promoted to a low-level military attache, this is right..."
Yu Gong nodded repeatedly and said with great excitement: "This plan is feasible! Come here, issue my order... Within three days, anyone who kills more than a hundred mountain soldiers can be given the title of a low-level general and form an army to destroy the mountain."
Rong tribe"
After Hua Xi took a few steps, he could vaguely hear the conversation coming from the courtyard, and wondered in his heart: Who is that old man? The chief seemed to be very respectful to him. Could it be Yan Emperor Jiang Ke?
After Hua Xi left the palace, he left 9 hunting bows, 9 spears, a few stone arrows, and war horses to Bai Zhan to take care of here, while he set off to the market to check out the market.
It is already evening, but the city is full of ethnic peoples who are crowded one after another. Many local residents are not angry about the current situation of being unable to sleep at night, but are excited because the large number of people allows ordinary ethnic people to
Starting a small business in front of each other's homes, let alone those big merchants and consortiums, is simply a joy to laugh from ear to ear.
