Chapter 874 Want to sell some food

  The Xianbei people were able to defeat the Han army when they unified the grasslands.

  But since the split for decades, not only has the combat effectiveness declined, but even many inheritances have been broken.

  For example, in the era of Tanshihuai, Xianbei not only had a unified command, but also had a certain source of iron weapons.

  After the races are scattered, except for the big tribes led by people like Ke Bineng, the small tribes can only degenerate to making arrows out of bones again.

  No matter which dynasty or generation, division will inevitably lead to degeneration. This is an iron law.

  Because the original division of labor and cooperation system was destroyed, it would not be overnight to re-establish a new system.

  If there are insufficient manpower, even under the pressure of survival, even the bottom order will have to be overthrown and restarted.

  The Xianbei people at this time are in this situation.

  Although there are a large number of them, at most they wear tattered leather armor, and most of them don't even have leather armor.

  The arrow feathers in the quiver are basically bone arrows.

   In front of the Han army with superior equipment, there is no way to fight back.

   "Rush over and crush them!"

  The Xianbei people could only grit their teeth, desperately whipped the horse with the whip, leaned over and charged forward!

  In their cognition, as long as they can cross this distance, it is the world of cavalry.

  It's just this time, they thought too much.

  The elite cavalry led by the bald head Tianli are far more ferocious than them.

   is also far more elite than them.

  After all, these Xianbei people are just temporary formations of various tribes of different sizes.

  In addition to being able to charge head-on, the most is to add the flanking tactics commonly used by the cavalry.

   But their flanks touched the bald part that had been prepared for a long time, and that was the situation of flash crash.

  Although there are not many horses equipped with iron horseshoes on the bald part, even cavalry with only stirrups and saddles is enough to form a crushing advantage against Xianbei cavalry with only a pair of saddles.

  Riding and shooting, dashing, strangling...

   It was done in one go, extremely smooth.

  In contrast to the Xianbei people, even if it is a close-range fight, as long as the horse is a little faster, they must devote part of their attention to sit still at any time.

   The bald-haired cavalry who completely liberated their hands can even face two Western Xianbei, or even three.

  So, although there are more people in Xianbei in the west than in the bald department.

  But after the battle, the flaws of the temporary alliance formed by the various tribes of Xianbei in the west were quickly revealed.

  For the bald hair department, they are a bunch of mobs without any organization at all.

   It is no problem for this kind of mob to fight against the wind, or to bully the weak by relying on their numbers.

  But as long as they suffer setbacks, the attack is unfavorable, and the loss is slightly large, it is easy for them to flee separately.

  Once caught in a headwind, they have no resilience at all and can run faster than anyone else.

   Straight ahead, the arrow rain formed by the Han army's crossbow array cannot be broken through by a wave of charges.

  On the two wings, they fought hand-to-hand with the bald-haired elite cavalry at close range, and they were killed even more scattered.

   When the first wave charged down, the Xianbei people in the west found nothing but hundreds of human and horse corpses.

   "The thief is back!"

  In the camp of the Han army, some people cheered like this.

   "There's nothing to be happy about, but they're just some worthless thieves."

  A student said in an old-fashioned way.

   Those who can serve as grassroots officials in the new camp, at least those who have personally experienced several wars, are qualified to say this.

  Compared with Wei thieves, these barbarians in front of them are nothing more than thieves at best.

   These words were heard by Zhang Yuan, and he gave a rare smile:

   "For the first time in battle, everyone is already very good. The elite soldiers led by the head of the mountain in the past also recruited some thieves for training at the beginning."

   "Only by training your courage will you have elite soldiers for the battle of Longyou. So, everyone must pay more attention to training soldiers in the future."

  When Shan Chang first started, he was also training in Nanxiang.

   Later, he practiced with the barbarians from Yuejuan, and finally participated in the battle of Longyou. Only then did he achieve a record that everyone admired.

  Zhang Yuan was still in the mood to teach recruits there, quite a bit like a political educator in the military of later generations.

   After the first failure, the Xianbei people had already started to quarrel.

   "The opposite is not an ordinary tribe..."

   "Should have known it a long time ago, didn't they say they were Han Chinese sergeants?"

   "It's really possible that it was sent by Feng Langjun..."

  Well, this one is rather naive, and at this time, they are still calling "Feng Langjun" one after another.

   "Why is he doing this to us?"

   "Yes, we are going to join him!"

   "The key is what should we do now?"

   "Do you want to send someone over to talk to them?"

   This remark immediately angered someone: "The corpses of the warriors in the clan before the battle are not cold yet! Are you trying to give in to the opponent?"

   Changed Liangzhou Qianghu, knowing that the opponent was the Han army that he could not afford to offend, so he either ran away far away, or simply switched camps directly.

  But these Xianbei people, who just came from the northern desert, still have a certain sense of superiority. How could they accept this change of status all of a sudden?

  So doubt is inevitable.

   Then get angry.

   "They came prepared, we were just careless, let's do it again!"

  A consensus was quickly reached, and the Xianbei people quickly organized a second charge again.

   But what they didn't know was that the new battalion of the Han army had greatly enhanced their confidence after their first confrontation.

  Compared with the first time, this time the arrows of the Han army are more violent and dense.

  Because the emotions of the new recruits have begun to stabilize.

  So the adults of the Xianbei saw that the warriors in front were defeated faster.

   This so-called "prepared" charge completely defeated the confidence of the Xianbei people.

   They began to turn from anger to panic.

   Seeing that the bald army has tentatively expanded to both sides, at the same time the Han army's infantry began to adjust their formation, as if to outflank them in turn.

   Layers of oppression are like dark clouds that are too thick to be seen, pressing on the head of Western Xianbei.

   Someone couldn't help it anymore:

   "What should we do? How about we withdraw?"

   "Anyway, enough has been robbed, and Ju Yanze's place is enough for us to live a stable life."

  Even if some people are not reconciled, but looking at the camp of the Han army on the opposite side, they retreated twice quickly, making people unable to break through the confidence of the opposite side.

   Before the unified discussion had reached a result, some people had already quietly taken their own tribe members away.

   This is what the mob is most afraid of. Once some people start to retreat, the rest of them will not want to be the last ones, and they will start to disperse.

   Bald-haired Tianli was still thinking about how to defeat the opponent with as few casualties as possible, but he didn't expect the enemy himself to suddenly become agitated.

  He also said that the opponent was going to start a third charge, and hurriedly prepared to take back the deployed Jingqi.

  If the two wings of the bow and crossbow array of the Han army lost their own guards, something would happen. Who knows what the governor's office would think?

   Unexpectedly, there was a commotion on the opposite side for a while, and many people began to flee to the back.

   This time he was stunned!

   Not to mention him, even Liu Hun didn't expect the other party to run so simply.

   "General Liu, this was my mistake. I shouldn't have taken back the two wings. Now I immediately send the whole army to chase after it."

  The bald-haired Tianli felt a little regretful, and he immediately pleaded guilty to Liu Hun, the nominal commander.

  At this time, as a Xianbei, his status is not only a little awkward, but also a little sensitive.

   Now, he suddenly remembered inexplicably what Liu Hun had said to him before going to war, "There are only big Han soldiers in the Governor's Mansion, no tribes".

  As the subordinate governor of the governor's mansion, bald Tianli can also be regarded as a soldier in the governor's mansion.

  So he knew that not all soldiers in Xinying were Han Chinese.

   On the contrary, there are at least 30 to 40 percent Hu people.

   But there is no difference between them and Han soldiers.

  Training together, eating together, being punished together, going into battle together, shouting "The big man wins" together...

  Compared with his current mood, he felt a little envious of his baldness.

  Liu Hun naturally didn't know how the bald haired Tianli felt at this moment, but even if he knew, he didn't care.

   Anyway, it wasn't him who was embarrassed.

  Looking at the bald-haired Tianli, Liu Hun nodded: "I didn't expect Xianbeihu's move. The bald-haired patriarch doesn't have to take the blame like this."

   It doesn’t really matter whether he’s guilty or not, the important thing is that I’m afraid of what Feng Junhou thinks…

   Bald, Tianli felt a little bitter in his heart.

   But it is obviously not the time to think about these things.

   "The bald-haired patriarch doesn't need to chase too deep, just drive these Xianbeihu into the quicksand."

  Liu Hunhe sneered, "Let them rest a little longer, the big man will march into Xihai County sooner or later, where will they go?"

   "If you don't obey the orders of the big man, go back to the desert to live and see if you have any luck to survive the white disaster in the desert."

  The desert is no different from Liangzhou. There are white disasters in Liangzhou, but they are not common. The desert occurs almost every year.

   Otherwise, why did everyone want to go south all these years?

  Thinking of this, Liu Hun smiled strangely:

   "Besides, the governor's mansion doesn't have that much food to feed labor."

  When the bald-haired Tianli heard the last sentence, a chill rushed from his tailbone straight to his forehead!

  The hand that had been holding down the scabbard on his waist suddenly had blue veins.

   This is simply a subconscious action.

  In this case, if it were someone in the Governor’s Mansion, not to mention Feng Junhou, General Guan, or Secretary Zhang, it would be a matter of course for him to be bald.

   But a Hun, dare to say that about the Xianbei people?

   I don’t know that the Xianbei people have the final say in Damo now?

   How dare a Hun who has been a dog for more than a hundred years say that about the owner of the desert?

   There is also a chain of contempt among Hu people.

  If it wasn’t for this Xiongnu being the Marquis of Guiyi of the Han family, if it wasn’t for his current status, if it was in the past, he could just pull out the knife and chop the humanoid animal in front of him to death!

  Of course, if you want to kill this Hun, you want to kill this Hun, but it is not your own people who are regarded as laborers, so you can only think about it when you are bald.

   He gritted his teeth and cupped his fists, then turned and left in a hurry, preparing to gather his clansmen to lead people to pursue him.

  Although Liu Hun ordered not to kill too hard, the bald-haired Tianli still chased those chaotic Western Xianbei all the way into the quicksand, and then retreated again.

  In Liangzhou in March, the snow melted and the earth rejuvenated.

  Many official documents that could not be delivered normally due to road closures due to heavy snow last year have also begun to be sent to the governor's mansion continuously.

  Among them, what aroused Governor Feng's interest the most was that Sun Shiwan was once again blocked in front of Hefei.

   "It was agreed to attack Hefei every year, and it was blocked every year. Besides false surrender, can there be something new?"

   Governor Feng couldn't help complaining.

  Since Sun Quan proclaimed himself emperor and Soochow and the Great Han agreed to divide the world equally, they have been talking about attacking Hefei every year.

  Every year, it’s a small fight. Send some troops to cross the border to march and it’s over. Or it’s a false surrender, as much as you can...

   Even Governor Feng, who is an ally, couldn't help complaining, let alone Wei thief.

  I’m afraid that this Soochow is really like the mosquitoes buzzing in your ears when you turn off the lights and sleep at night.

   Hit and can't hit, annoying and annoying to death, if you don't pay attention, it will quietly lie on your body to **** blood.

  "Sun Quan, who has the name of an emperor, has no emperor's heart, let alone an emperor's heart, and his vision is really nothing more than a prince."

  Guan Ji just came back from walking outside and was lying on the couch to rest. Hearing this, a smile appeared on her face:

   "What A Lang said is true."

  Although she has never brought up the matter of Jingzhou in these years, it does not mean that she is so broad-minded that she has forgotten the enmity between her father and brother.

   Hearing his own Alang's evaluation of Sun Quan, General Guan expressed his pleasure.

   "But..." Zhang Xiaosi answered next to him, "Sun Quan's heir, Sun Deng, has a good reputation, and he is also very scheming."

   As she spoke, she glanced at Governor Feng.

   Back then, Sun Deng and Tiger Girl had a story to tell...

   Governor Feng just pretended not to understand the meaning, and even nodded, agreeing with Zhang Xiaosi's appearance:

   "That's right, Sun Quan has a good son. I thought that father and son would live in two places, and they would be able to make a fuss."

   "I didn't expect that Sun Deng could use the death of his brother to persuade Sun Quan to let him stay in Jianye. It is really not easy."

  In the first month of this year, Sun Quan's second grandson died of illness.

  Sun Deng heard that Sun Quan was overly sad, so he rushed to Jianye overnight to persuade Sun Quan to take care of his health.

   After a while, Sun Quan wanted to drive Sun Deng back to Wuchang.

  Sun Deng took Sun Li's early death as an example, and on the grounds that he was unable to serve his parents, he also urged Chen Luxun to be loyal and diligent, Wuchang had nothing to worry about, so he asked himself to stay in Jianye.

   I have to say that Sun Deng chose a good time, and Sun Quan actually agreed.

   "So it's Lu Xun who is in charge of Wuchang now?" Feng Inspector pondered for a moment, then touched his chin again, "Over the past few years, Soochow has tried to attack Hefei several times."

   "If Lu Xun is in charge of Wuchang, it can just cooperate with Sun Quan's attack on Hefei from Jianye..."

  The Dabie Mountains in the north of Wuchang are a natural barrier to prevent the Wei army from going directly south.

  The Wu State gathered troops here, and they could support Ruxuwu to the east and Jingzhou to the west. It is an important military town connecting Jiangdong and Jingzhou.

   It is not an exaggeration to call it Wu Guo's heart and lungs.

   "Even when Sun Deng stayed in Wuchang as the prince, Lu Xun was actually the person who supervised military affairs and state affairs. Why didn't Lu Xun send troops when Sun Quan wanted to go to Hefei?"

  General Guan dismissed Zhang Xiaosi's little thoughtfulness, and the name Sun Deng meant nothing to her.

  My mother’s children have all started to practice martial arts, and there is still one in the stomach, maybe there are two, you tell me this?

is that useful?

   "It's not the same." Feng Yong shook his head, "Sima Yi was in Jingzhou before, but now that Sima Yi is in Guanzhong, the guards of Jingzhou in Wei State may not be able to threaten Lu Xun."

   "Furthermore, Zhuge Jin can be regarded as a good talent. He can't deal with Sima Yi, but Jingzhou should be fine when facing other people in Wei State."

   Sima Yi was in Jingzhou, so Lu Xun could only stare at Jingzhou.

  But the big man is playing too well in the west now, and it has begun to affect the strategic balance between Wei and Wu in the east.

  If it wasn't for Sun Shiwan to hold him back...

   "Then Alang thinks, can Sun Quan conquer Hefei?"

  Guan Ji asked with concern.

  Feng Inspector laughed loudly: "Only relying on Sun Shiwan? Xijun, it is better to think about when the big man will take down Guanzhong."

   "What Sun Shiwan? If someone spreads the word, they will say that you have no virtue in your mouth."

  Guan Ji said amusedly and angrily, "It's all right to scold General Zhang for climbing the mountain and Sima for crossing the water to the Wei thief. Wu Guo is now an ally of the big man."

  Feng Yong curled his lips, "Even if he is not an ally, can the country of Wu still go against the river?"

  Lu Kang couldn’t even defeat Luo Xian’s garrison of the remnant soldiers, and it was Yong’an where the plague was prevalent in the city. Why can the Wu Kingdom now defeat Yong’an, which has the support of the whole Sichuan?

  Now Dahan is sitting on the land of two states and Longyou, and the development of Nanzhong University has continued to develop the economy.

  Even if Wu Guo backed away from the alliance, at most it would only delay the Han Dynasty from competing with Wei Guo for Guanzhong for a few years.

   There is also Jingnan, which is now the source of raw material for Dahan brown sugar. It is also the source of brown sugar quotas for many aristocratic families and even military generals in the state of Wu.

  Wu Guo wants to betray the alliance, Sun Quan must first solve the problem of whether he can finish the sugar cane in Jingnan, and then pull out the brown sugar.

  Thinking of this, Guiwang Feng suddenly smiled: "It's good for Lu Xun to be distracted by the things in the east. We can try to sell grain to Jingzhou then."

   "Are you crazy?"

  Guan Ji asked in surprise.

   "Liangzhou is a fertile land. As long as these two years pass, let alone self-sufficiency, it will be fine to feed livestock."

   With advanced farming methods, coupled with the heaven-sent treasure land of Liangzhou, if it really wants to develop, what can happen to the food?

   I saw Governor Feng said grandly, "What will we do with so much food in Shu? It can't hurt farmers with cheap grain, right?"

   It is impossible for cheap grain to hurt farmers.

   Impossible for at least five years.

   Unless the big man is also in his hands.

  In this case, the big man will have two kingdoms of abundance, plus a heaven-sent treasure land, so that there will be a surplus of food.

  But Governor Feng is just looking for an excuse now.

   "A few years ago in Jingzhou, didn't there be a shortage of food and insufficient food in the army, so Lu Xun suggested letting the lieutenant soldiers open up wasteland and cultivate fields in Jingzhou?"

  Lu Xun is the initiator who presides over the reclamation in Jingzhou. If he still focuses on the affairs of Jingzhou, some small actions are really difficult to do.

   "In order to restore the overall situation of the big man, why not sell food to allies at a low price?"

   Inspector Feng slapped his thigh, "That's it! Secretary Zhang, help me write a letter to the prime minister."

  As soon as Zhang Xiaosi heard this, he immediately responded happily: "My brother-in-law thinks long-term!"

  General Guan immediately became unhappy, and pushed Governor Feng: "Speak clearly! Concubine, don't be a fool!"
