Chapter 928 Opportunity

  Below Xiaoguan in Anding County, there is a river originating from Longshan Mountain, flowing from south to north, and finally pouring into the big river coming from Yuyin County.

  It is the largest tributary of the Dahe in the Longyou area.

  Because it is opposite to Luoshui, which flows into Weishui from north to south, and the two are similar to parallel, it is called Xiluoshui.

  When the Han Dynasty was strong, the scope of Anding County included the entire Xiluoshui, went directly to the edge of the big river, and even built a fortress on the edge of the big river.

  It is just because of the same situation as Beidi County, the Hu people continue to move south, coupled with the war in the Central Plains, and political corruption and other reasons.

  Cao Wei finally abandoned the area outside Xiaoguan.

  At the end of March and the beginning of April in the twelfth year of Jianxing, on the edge of the big river in the north of Xiaoguan, at a glance, there is an invisible green carpet.

   When I got closer, I found that there are thousands of flowers of various kinds dotted on it.

  Light cyan, blue, lavender, yellow, white...

  The herds of cattle, horses and sheep that have recovered from the winter are grazing greedily with their heads down.

   Occasionally, one or two sheep left the flock, and soon a shepherd dog rushed out to drive the sheep back.

   Then the shepherd laughed:

   "What a smart dog!"

   "I heard that this is an adult who specially used cattle and horses in exchange for Feng Langjun's dog farm. It is the best dog to use."

   "Feng Langjun..."

   There seemed to be some unclear meaning in the tone, but it finally turned into a sigh.

   There was another dog barking in the distance. The shepherd looked up and saw a group of people and horses appearing in the south.

   Coming from the south, they are not driving sheep, but mostly Han caravans.

   It's just that the caravan appeared at this time, which always feels a little strange.

  Because in another month, the clan will send people to Xiaoguan to exchange wool and Han people for food, wool and other things.

  The caravan is here at this time, what can it do?

  Shi Bao rode on the horse, pulling the rein from time to time to make the horse trot at a steady pace.

  Behind him were the guards sent by Liangzhou Governor's Mansion.

  Everyone wears armor, bows and knives.

  Where the horse team passed, birds hiding in the grass were startled from time to time.

  The larger ones fly with flapping wings, even several feet in size.

   It is estimated that after being frightened, the big bird was very upset, hovering over the horse team and singing endlessly.

  Shi Bao looked up and muttered:

   "The sound of this bird is very unpleasant."

  The head of the guard looked up and said:

   "If the general doesn't like it, I'm willing to shoot it down."

  Shi Bao held his whip and pointed at the barbarians coming out ahead, and said with a smile:

   "If you can hit it, you will have good things if you hit the tent tonight."

  The guard leader smiled knowingly:

   "The general is here for the first time, and a certain person is still on duty tonight. This good thing may not be his turn."

  He turned his head and said to the other guards around him, "I don't need to be on duty tonight, but I can give it a try."

   "Come here!"

  Someone jumped out at the moment.

  Touch the crossbow with your feet, aim with the upper arrow, and hold your breath for a moment.

   "Boom!"

  The noisy birds stopped abruptly, and then fell down from the sky.

   "Colorful!"

   Everyone shouted loudly.

  The bird shooter puts away the crossbow, twitches the horse's buttocks, and the horse screams, then gallops towards the place where the bird fell.

  Then both sides watched the bird before it landed. The knight was already like an ape, and without slowing down his horse, he turned sideways and picked up the big bird.

  The healthy horse turned the corner at the same time, and galloped back.

   Archery is good, riding is also good.

  In the eyes of the barbarian on the other side, the best eagle archer in the clan is probably nothing more than that.

   "Can the hawk shoot down?"

  Shi Bao was delighted to see Lie Xin, and pointed to a eagle in the sky far away and asked.

   "General, the Hu people have come to welcome us." The head of the guard reminded in a low voice, "Would it be rude?"

   "Don't worry, I'm familiar with this tribe." Shi Bao said indifferently, "Besides, the Hu people are afraid of power and not virtuous."

   "If you can show your hand in front of them, they will only be in awe, and will not feel rude."

  Condor Archer is the most prestigious title on the grassland.

   There are rumors among the barbarians in Liangzhou that there are countless eagle archers under Feng Langjun's command, and any cavalry soldier in the army is comparable to the eagle archers on the grassland, and he is the most powerful adult in all ages.

   This time, the leader of the guards did not let anyone in the team take action.

  Because he knew that, except for himself, who was born in the Dark Night Battalion and specialized in bows and crossbows, the rest of the team might not be sure to meet General Shi's requirements.

  He looked up at the hawk in the sky, and suddenly smiled and said:

   "When Guo Jing of the former Qin Dynasty served Qin, he killed two birds with one stone and intimidated Hu Yi. Although he is not talented, he is not as good as Guo Jing, but he is willing to show the heroism of the Han family in front of Hu Yi!"

  After speaking, he clamped his horse's belly and galloped out of the team, holding a longbow in his hand, nodding his arrows to bluff, and galloped towards the eagle.

  An Ding Hu Er knew that the cavalry of the Han family could control the horse without using both hands. At this time, he saw a man on the horse's back holding a bow with both hands, ready to shoot the eagle. He was shocked and horrified at the moment.

  So everyone's eyes fell on this person.

  But seeing that the head of the guard had arrived at his destination, he circled around a few more times.

  The eagles and vultures in the air seemed to have sensed something was wrong, so they wanted to fly high and stay away from danger.

   At this moment, there was only a shrill blare, and the eagle, which was about to fly high into the sky, paused, and then fell powerlessly to the ground.

   "The Condor Shooter!"

   "Hero!"

  …

   Hu people exclaimed everywhere.

  Emperor Xiaowu of the former Han Dynasty conquered the Xiongnu for more than 20 years. Hu Er heard that those who were not afraid of Han soldiers were called Hanzi, and people were also called heroes.

   Exclaiming "hero", at this time, is the greatest respect for Han men.

  Shi Bao laughed, and then rode his horse towards the barbarian team.

  The leader of the Hu people is unexpectedly a woman who still has charm.

   She combed the hairstyle of the daughter of the Han family, wore narrow-sleeved trousers popular among migrant workers in Dahan, and a coat and petticoat. She personally led the horse for Shi Bao, and her eyes fluttered:

   "Alang, are you here?"

  Shi Bao got off the horse and seemed to be leading the horse, but actually touched the woman's hand indiscriminately, and his voice became a little low and magnetic:

   "Yeah, here we come!"

  The woman licked her lips, and her eyes fell on the line behind Shi Bao.

  The silent but extremely oppressive Han army team made her shrink slightly.

  But when she saw the big bird and the big eagle on the horse again, she couldn't help swallowing again.

   "Ah Lang's visit this time seems to be different from usual?"

  The woman turned her eyes back to Shi Bao and asked.

   "Yes, this time Junhou specially sent me here. Besides you, I have to go to other places on the grassland, so I brought some people."

  The woman's eyes lit up: "Ah Lang, could it be Feng Langjun..."

   "This is not the place to talk, let's talk in the tent."

   "Alright, this way, Ah Lang."

  With the woman taking the lead, the other Hu people avoided to both sides and welcomed this small Han army into the clan.

   This Hu tribe is the Huns, and it is the tribe of the Yan clan of Hu Boju, the former Anding Baosai Huns master.

  Actually, this Anding Baosai Xiongnu Lord was granted by Wei Guofeng.

   It's just that Feng Langjun's reputation among the Hu people is too strong, and at that time, Feng Langjun led the army out of Xiaoguan and swept Anding County with a force of destruction.

  Hu Boju's status and position naturally followed suit.

   Later, Feng Langjun wanted to infiltrate Jiuyuan's hometown through Hu Boju's position, and prepare for the future Guanzhong battle.

   It's just that the opponent Sima Yi is not a vegetarian, so he took the first step to consolidate Beidi County, so as to prevent the recurrence of the old battle of Longyou.

  Hu Bo's position became the chicken that Sima Yi used to teach monkeys.

  Hu Boju’s clan was wiped out, except for a few dozens who escaped, none of the remaining clan members survived.

   Fortunately, the Yan clan was not there at that time, but brought his own people to farm beside the big river outside Xiaoguan.

  Although the Hu people mostly eat meat and drink milk, they also eat food if they have the conditions on weekdays.

   Otherwise, the stomach will be uncomfortable.

  So they will all find some places where they can farm and sprinkle millet and so on.

  In the past, when the Huns and Xianbei were strong, there would be special servant tribes who would grow food for them in specific places.

  But now the Hu people have another choice, and that is tea.

  Like Yan Shi, she personally cooked a pot of milk tea and served it to Shi Bao in a bowl:

   "Ah Lang, please drink tea to warm up your body."

  Shi Bao took it and took a sip. It was salty and sweet with a milky aroma, and the taste of tea could still be smelled in the mouth. It tasted very good.

  He drank it in one gulp, handed the bowl to Yanshi, "Have another bowl."

   This kind of milk tea is not available in the Central Plains.

  Only in Longyou, Liangzhou.

   And only rich people can afford it.

  Because tea leaves, brown sugar, goat milk, etc. are not things that ordinary people can get.

  But if you want to say that this milk tea tastes the best, it is naturally the Governor of Liangzhou.

   The milk alone has no fishy smell, which is enough to beat other people's milk tea.

   Not to mention the variety of tastes.

  But Shi Bao doesn't mind the smell of milk, so he thinks that the milk tea made by Yan's is also delicious.

  Yanshi obediently brought another bowl over, watched Shi Bao drink it, and then asked:

   "A Lang came this time, but brought good news?"

   "That's good news!"

  Shi Bao nodded and patted his stomach. He ate a bit too much at the banquet just now, and he drank two bowls of milk tea, and his stomach was already full.

  He lay down happily, under the blanket covered with fine wool, he let out a breath of comfort:

   "Your Majesty has agreed to Ke Bineng's request..."

   There is no way not to be happy.

  Shi Bao felt that the Hu tribe on the grassland was his happy paradise.

  Don't be greedy for money deliberately, you will get wool on your hands.

  Relying on the name of a prince, Hu'er will never answer him, his power can be described as majestic.

   Not to mention which bearded girl you fall in love with, you don’t even need to ask yourself, someone will help you with a look...

  This is real life!

   What kind of life did you live in the past?

  Shi Bao was sighing with emotion, but Yan Shi had already leaned beside him, heard his words, and asked happily: "Really?"

  Her husband was killed by a Wei thief. If it was changed before, she might as well pretend that she never had such a husband.

   But not now.

   Now that Han people are backing her, she naturally wants to take revenge.

   "Don't worry, the big man will send troops to Guanzhong sooner or later."

  Shi Bao put his arms around her, "If you do well this time, it might be a good opportunity."

  Yanshi lay down in Shi Bao's arms, and said faintly:

   "Now my tribe, apart from relying on Xiaoguan's army, dare not even cross the big river. It is lucky to survive. What other good chances are there?"

   "Stupid!" Shi Bao burped, and smacked a certain place, feeling rich, "Revenge must be avenged."

   "As long as you do what I say, your tribe may grow stronger again, and even become the trusted tribe of the prince."

   "Really!?"

   When Yanshi heard this, he suddenly stood up and looked at Shi Bao in disbelief.

  Although everyone knows that following Feng Langjun can lead to good food and sweet drinks, there are also thresholds for taking refuge in Feng Langjun.

   Otherwise, look at the Western Xianbei who entered Juyanze?

  The best one is of course Hu Yi who followed Feng Langjun to Nanxiang from the beginning.

  Ten years have passed, not only have they become naturalized, but even their children have become Han Chinese.

   Duanmuzhe, Liu Hun and others are the goals of everyone's struggle.

  The one who is a marquis is a marquis, and the one who is an official is an official.

  Don’t take the dog officer seriously, how many tribes Qu Shuai want to have a good relationship with the dog officer, so that they can buy a good dog!

  The second one is the Hu people in Longyou.

  They are the second batch of defectors, and at the same time helped Feng Langjun defeat the Wei thief.

   So they either lived off the pastures, or divided the fields.

   There are some tribal leaders, and now they are even outsourcers of Dongfeng Express. This is a way that makes many people jealous.

  The last one is the barbarians in Liangzhou.

  Because there are too many Hu people in Liangzhou, only those who have made contributions to the great Han will be regarded as trusted tribes by Feng Langjun, and they can be allocated to pastures and cultivated land conditionally.

  In addition, there are problems left over from the history of the oppression of the right and the right in the past, as well as natural disasters and other reasons.

  Many barbarians starved to death as beggars, and they only survived by taking part in the rebellion.

  Now, it is natural to follow the government to open up wasteland and cultivate land, borrow seeds to grow farm tools, and then slowly return them later.

  If Hu Bo survived in his position, the Yan clan would not be able to gain fame and become Feng Langjun's trusted tribe.

  As for now, relying on the previous credits, no one outside the pass dares to bully the Yan family's own tribe.

   But a weak tribe is the original sin.

  Yan family didn't know when his own tribe would disappear quietly like those small tribes on the grassland.

  The most, the most, he took his son to seek refuge with Feng Langjun, Feng Langjun would look at Hu Boju's face, and let himself and his son have no worries about food and clothing.

  But my own people...

  Maybe they will be scattered, like those miscellaneous beards in Liangzhou who don’t even have a sheep, either go to work as handymen in workshops and pastures, or follow the government to open up wasteland and farm land, right?

   Anyway, it will definitely not be as free as it is now, and at the same time be taken care of by the Han army.

  Thinking of this, Yan's heart became hotter and hotter, and his eyes were full of water when he looked at Shi Bao.

   "Alang..."

  Yanshi held Shi Bao's hand, his voice was almost able to squeeze out water, "As soon as you came here, I specially washed my body with soap three times. Smell it, does it smell good?"

  She leaned close to Shi Bao's ear and said softly, "At the banquet just now, the woman you saw a few times, I have already sent people to send the soap..."

  Shi Daolui swallowed with a "gudong" and felt his hand was tightly held by Yanshi, unable to move.

   This made him smile knowingly, this girl doesn't see the rabbit and doesn't tell the eagle!

   "Ke Bineng is connecting with the big man through you this time, this is your way!"

   "It's not just Ke Bineng, Junhou wants to strengthen the connection with Jiuyuan's hometown. Who is most familiar with that area?"

  Yan's complexion changed: "Did Ah Lang let me go?"

  My real Alang just died over there!

   "I'm not asking you to go, I'm asking you to be a middleman, whether it's a tribe that hates the Wei people, or a tribe that wants to do business with the big man."

   "You can get involved. After you have a wide network, you can get some raw materials, tea, brown sugar and spirits from the big man, and sell them to them."

   It's not that Shi Bao has never been to Jiuyuan's old place, so he knows the price of wool and the like there.

   To put it bluntly, as long as you can get the supply of goods at normal prices from Dahan, and there is a stable source of customers on the grassland.

   Backhanded seventy-eighty-ninety times sold, it is not a big problem at all, it is still the kind of price but no market.

   "But how can I get those things? I want them myself!"

   "That's why I asked you to take care of the current matter. As long as Ke Bineng's affairs can satisfy the king, I will naturally have a reason to let you get the goods."

   "And it's an internal price," Shi Bao emphasized, "The key depends on whether you have the ability."

  The extermination of Hu Boju's position has greatly deterred the Hu people in Beidi County and Jiuyuan's hometown.

  It is not so easy to exert influence over there again after changing someone else.

  But Junhou is different, Junhou has a lot of money!

  For those things, the aristocratic family is going to be out of their minds, and even the in-laws are turning against each other.

  He doesn't believe it anymore, will Hu people not be tempted?

  Taking the opportunity of Ke Bineng, it is unlikely that the monarch will be able to reorganize the situation in Jiuyuan's hometown and Beidi County.

  Yanshi didn't know whether others were tempted or not, but she was tempted anyway, and her body began to tremble.

   Is there really going to be a day when you are a farting sheep? Also plant a fart!

  My old lady lies down and drinks brown sugar milk tea every day, the kind that drinks bowl after bowl!

   "Don't worry, Ah Lang, I know what to do..."

  Yan Shi said while softly in his lover's arms.
