Almost the main force of the grass barbarians, while fighting with the Zhou army outside Ganmen Pass, He Ai took thousands of cavalry, lightly loaded into battle, and ran long distances to attack various tribes in the grasslands.

"General, why don't we cut the grass and root, these steppe barbarians are unbearable and cruel!"

While resting, hearing the lieutenant's doubts, He Ai stood up and pointed to the endless grassland, "How is this land?"

"Although it's good here, it's only suitable for horses and sheep. We Central Plains people are not good at this. The area here is so large that it's useless to come!"

He Ai smiled and said, "That's why I kept these people, and let them help us raise horses and sheep in the future, and raise more cows to drink milk and meat, and strengthen our Central Plains Isn't the human body very good?"

He Ai has built special cattle farms in Yungui and Sichuan, which are dedicated to cultivating dairy and beef cattle, and are not subject to the ban on cattle slaughter.

I feel it.

Hearing He Ai's words, the general's eyes lit up and he immediately shouted loudly.

"Brothers, listen, the general said, when we lay down this grassland, we will let the grassland barbarians who were captured by us raise horses and cattle for us here, for our good horses Wagyu, everyone cheer me up, use our strongest skills, and knock down all the grasslands as soon as possible!"

"The general is mighty!"

Listening to the emotional scenes, He Ai showed a gratified smile. On this endless grassland, she would never give up, and incorporate them into the territory of the Zhou Dynasty as soon as possible, so that they will become China The national territory is very necessary.

thing.

It was captured by the Zhou Dynasty. I heard that the Zhou Dynasty still had an elite cavalry still in the depths of the grassland. Some people wanted to fight the Zhou Dynasty to the end, but more grassland warriors were affected by this and their morale was low.

The great khan, who was so talented, did not expect that they would be much more difficult to deal with these Zhou Dynasty soldiers than they had expected before, and the other party even had elite troops already. deep into their rear.

Although the main force has been taken away, there are many warriors and strong men left by each tribe, some even as many as tens of thousands. Women, children and property of the tribe are spared.

"We, General He, said, we will not negotiate, we will only accept surrender. If we surrender, we are one family. Your wives and children, including these animals, will be returned to you!"

"Our Great Zhou Dynasty is a country composed of many ethnic groups. We love peace. Let you self-govern, after all, we Zhou people are not used to life on the grasslands."

"We can trade with each other. You are responsible for providing us with meat and fur, and we provide you with materials such as salt and tea. If you have money, you can make money together!"

"Our General He also said that he doesn't like war very much, and he doesn't like killing people, that's why he keeps so many prisoners, but if you just want to continue provocation, we will also Don't be afraid, because we don't have much else in the Zhou Dynasty, just a lot of people!"

"Oh, you may not know about General He, have you seen this flag? It's this He, we are under General He, and he himself is bringing his troops to the Take over your old nest, the longer you hesitate, the greater the loss to your rear, what to do, or make a decision as soon as possible!"

The enemy camp, whose hearts are floating, heard these words, especially the 'autonomy' that made them very excited, and many different voices immediately came out.

No matter how much the main war forces clamor to fight, they think that as long as they win the Zhou Dynasty's territory, they will have everything, but there are not many who agree, knowing that the morale has been greatly affected Under these circumstances, even if he went out to fight, he was only delivering food to the opponent, and the big sweat, who sighed that he had made some mistakes in this trip, was not allowed to fight.

The unfamiliar army with the Hezifan flag fluttering not only has a large number of cavalry, but even the infantry is very heroic and good at fighting, and cooperates with the cavalry seamlessly. can always inflict great casualties on them at a very small cost.

From these opponents, you can see the strength of the main force led by General He.

Within two days, as two more groups of prisoners were sent back, Han Xun again brought out the translator and shouted.

"Listen, our general He Da sent instructions from the rear front again. He said that the world is so big, we Zhou Chao came to love peace, and we didn't like war, and we didn't even want this grassland. Of course, I don’t want to go to war far away.”

"So, he decided to talk to you about cooperation, as long as you are willing to leave farther, leave this grassland to the tribes who are reluctant to leave their hometown, we can also put back your wives and children, Escort and support you to go further afield, as long as you stop trying to provoke, we Dazhou will serve as your eternal backing!"

"Look, this is the world map prepared by our generals for you. As long as you dare to imagine, there is a huge territory waiting for you to conquer!"

In the Zhou Dynasty, not only the maritime industry was quite developed, but also the foreign trade developed through the Silk Road was very prosperous, and the people of Zhou traveled to many places.

He Ai also asked the He family to buy ships and form a fleet to go out to sea. The products produced in the workshops of the He family and the academy were not only supplied to land traders, but also to those who Fleet out to sea.

Good cooperative relationship, let He Ai entrust those caravans at a high price to help find some special products such as grains from outside the territory, and ask them to help collect or draw charts and maps wherever they go , of course not rejected.

In the past ten years, there have been countless maps collected. He Ai took the opportunity to draw the world map in his mind. Even if it is not detailed, it is an extremely precious strategy in this era. resource.

He Ai asked these prairie barbarians to surrender before releasing their people and property, which made many tribes excited, but most of them were unwilling even if they were moved, and some ambitious belligerents The tribe was so excited that they wanted to fight to the end with the Zhou Dynasty.

Although it is good, it is not only difficult to deal with, just as the people in the Central Plains are not used to living in the grasslands, they are also not suitable for living in the Central Plains for a long time.

"Our Khan said that since we want to talk about cooperation, let your General He come to talk to our Khan in person!"

"General He said, as long as you agree, he will wait for you at this place at the end of the grassland!"

Taking over the map handed over by He Ai, Khan said in Dazhou Mandarin with an accent.

"Can I trust you"

He Ai laughed loudly and answered with great certainty.

"Of course, since we signed this border peace treaty, we have been friends. For friends, we Chinese people have always been very sincere!"

"My friend, you have to believe, we hope you can live and work successfully in the distance more than anyone else, please remember that we all have yellow skin, black eyes and hair, which means Since we are the same kind of people, we should cooperate with each other and have a close relationship. Fighting and killing and so on, it is too emotional!"

Not long ago, the two armies were still engaged in a life-and-death battle. After only a month or two, the two sides were able to sit down and negotiate peace agreements with peace of mind. It's really changing.

"General, did they really just leave?"

Until the opponents have left the camp, Zhang Wuquan, who is only responsible for making soy sauce, looks at the opponent's mighty back, and feels like he is in a dream, completely unbelievable.

Fang was beaten up, but they didn’t have the chance to leave if they wanted to. That big sweat is not only ambitious, but also shrewd and resolute, and of course he knows what better choice to make!”

It only took less than half a year to successfully complete this reinforcement task, He Ai spent more than half a year, ordering the rectification of the border garrison, at the same time arranging the remaining grassland ministries, strictly ordering them Slavery was abolished, the grassland was divided into several areas, and the tax system was established, and they were responsible for raising horses, cattle, and sheep in their respective grasslands.

At the same time, we also set up schools in various tribes to teach them the Chinese characters and history, as well as the Mandarin of the Zhou Dynasty, so that children of various tribes in the grasslands must remember from childhood that they are Chinese Part of the nation is the people of the Zhou Dynasty, and they want to be patriotic.

The garrison at the border will not be reduced, so that while maintaining daily training, they will also take turns to patrol the grasslands in batches.

After all, even if these tribes still have a certain number of self-defense forces, after being divided and ruled in this way, they have no ability to formally fight against the Zhou army. He Ai hopes to make these brave and good prairie people become Gentle, but don't want to be forced to turn back after successfully getting them to surrender.

After arranging the incident here, He Ai did not rush to bring the troops back, but applied to Emperor Ming Jing, intending to go to meet other neighbors who seem to be responsible at present , it is best to send away those who can be sent away, and those who are reluctant to leave will be subdued.
