Imperial Power Of Han Dynasty

Chapter 671

Huiji County, in the mountains.

Kuaiji County is the area of ​​Zhejiang, Jiangsu, and Shanghai today. Today, Shanghai is known as the Pearl of the Orient and its economy is very developed. However, during the Three Kingdoms period when the south was not developed, the territory of Kuaiji County was vast and the territory was mostly barren land, but in the mountains and jungles , The Shanyue people live.

The Shanyue tribe is the remnant of Baiyue. After Qin Shihuang succeeded in reunifying the six countries, he sent Zhao Tuo to lead 500,000 soldiers and civilians to conquer Baiyue south and expand its territory. The Shanyue tribe is the descendant of Baiyue.

The Shanyue people mainly rely on agriculture and grow grains. There are copper and iron in the mountains, which are cast as soldiers. Because of the dangerous environment, he is naturally brave, fierce and good at fighting. The leader is called handsome, divided into handsome, big handsome and zongshuai. The Shanyue people are not only the local aborigines, but also some Han people who evade taxes. These Han people brought advanced farming and iron smelting technology, which made the Shanyue people gradually grow.

In the open area between the big mountains, a few bamboo huts have risen from the ground.

Hundreds of young and sturdy mountain athletes guarded the side of the bamboo house. One of them raised his head and glanced at the bamboo house with envy.

"Don't think about it, that's where Zong Shuai and others live, do you still want to live in?"

A companion next to him laughed at him.

"Humph." He snorted, and suddenly said, "A few Han people came here a few days ago. Zong Shuai and others were very considerate to entertain them. The clothes on their bodies are really beautiful."

He looked to the north and wandered around and said, "I don't know what the place of the Han people is like. I really want to see the place of the Han people."

"Hey, listen to those Han people." The companion whispered: "The cities of the Han people are big. Those county and state cities are two or three feet high, and they are all built with stones."

"So tall?"

"There's more." The companion continued to show off: "I heard that the capital of the Han people is called Luoyang. The city is a full five feet high. There are a total of twelve gates around it, and a maximum of three to four hundred thousand people can live in it."

"Three to four hundred thousand people?" The youth of Shanyue exclaimed, "Then we still need to live in thatched huts? Everyone can live in the city."

The companion sneered and said, "Your kid wants to be beautiful, so take care of it."

And in the bamboo building, on a large wolfskin chair, a mighty figure, messy hair and beard, and half of his shoulders were exposed, sitting on it with a big horse and a golden sword, laughing.

He smiled and said, "Wang is engaged, you Han people are very smart, and Shanyue has always admired it."

"Peng Zongshuai, Shanyue people are not bad, the armor is sharp, but if it can be crafted, the armor produced by Shanyue will be even sharper."

The person who replied with a smile, tied his hair right, with a slightly arrogant smile on his face.

This rough-and-tough Shanyue Han was the commander of a tribe in Shanyue, named Peng Hu, with tens of thousands of people under his command, over ten thousand young and strong, powerful, vaguely the leader of the tribes of Shanyue, and extremely powerful in discourse.

The scribe was Wang Kai in Xuzhou Prefecture and came to the Shanyue clan on the order of Cao Cao to instigate Shanyue to rebel in the rear and intimidate the Jiangdong Sun clan.

"Oh?"

Hearing what Wang Kai said, Peng Hu immediately became interested and said: "So, Prime Minister Cao is willing to give us a group of craftsmen?"

In order to avoid heavy taxes, many Han people in the south hid in the Shanyue people and brought new iron smelting technology to Shanyue. It is now in troubled times. Craftsmen play a great role. All princes are trying to collect craftsmen and build Soldier armor.

If you can get a group of craftsmen provided by Cao Cao, Shanyue's iron smelting technology will definitely be able to go to the next level. Will it be even more powerful then?

A pair of small eyes of Peng Hu revealed the meaning of greed, and Wang Kai had a full view.

Wang Kai smiled and said: "Haha, let alone craftsmen, Prime Minister Cao has something to say first, as long as Peng Zongshuai is willing to take the lead in contacting the leaders and the generals, the prime minister will naturally not hesitate to reward him. There are some gold and silver artifacts, and it will not be difficult for Peng Shuai to be named in the future."

"Prime Minister Cao is willing to canonize us?"

Hearing this, Peng Hu was overjoyed, and all the barbarians all admired the Han Dynasty. It would be a great honor if he could get the canonization of the Han Dynasty.

"It's so good, it's so good!" Peng Hu laughed, but after stopping his smile, he smiled suddenly: "I heard that you Han merchants do large-scale transactions, and you have to pay a deposit first. I don't know if Prime Minister Cao has life. Is Wang engaged in bringing some deposits here?"

Damn Shanyue people, no rabbits or eagles.

Wang Kai cursed secretly in his heart, but his face was still like spring breeze: "This is natural."

Pop!

He clapped his hands and said loudly: "Bring up the gift you brought to Peng Zongshuai."

The attendants behind Wang Kai brought a wooden plate covered with red silk cloth. Not only Peng Hu, but also his younger brother Peng Qi, as well as the generals, Xiaoshuai and others under his command, their eyes gathered on the red silk. Above the cloth.

Wang Kai couldn't help showing a hint of self-confidence, and as the attendants uncovered the red silk cloth, a burst of bright light immediately shone in the small room, causing Peng Hu and other handsome men and women to exclaim and admire.

"These... are all given to us by Prime Minister Cao?" Peng Qi, the younger brother of Peng Hu, trembled.

Wang Kai smiled and nodded. The wooden pallet was full of gold, silver and jade, and it was made extremely delicately, without any rough color. At first glance, he knew it was a good color polished by a skilled craftsman.

"These are just appetizers, as long as Peng Zongshuai is willing to agree, there will be heavy thanks in the future." Wang Kai deliberately added an accent to the word "heavy thanks", and all the leaders of Shanyue and all sizes swallowed.

"Big brother." Peng Qi left his seat, walked to Peng Hu, and said in a low voice: "Why don't you agree, anyway, the Jiangdong Sun Clan has always levied on us, adding taxes and corvee. It would be advantageous to overthrow the Jiangdong Sun Clan. Harmful."

Sun Ce was strong and brave, so he defeated Xu Gong Wanglang and unified Kuaiji County, and ordered the Shanyue people in Kuaiji County to be punishable. On the one hand, the Shanyue people are required to hand in grain and grass, and at the same time, the Shanyue people are required to be soldiers.

Zhu Zhi, Tai Shici, and others were all ordered to town Shanyue in the east of Fujiang, so the Shanyue people were quite dissatisfied with the Jiangdong Sun family.

"Brother." Seeing Peng Hu seemingly unmoved, Peng Qi persuaded: "Now that Sun Lang is dead, Jiangdong is the opportunity for turmoil. If there is no army now, when will we wait?"

"Yeah..." Peng Hu nodded, his gaze shot at Wang Kai.

Peng Hu stood up, his tall body was very oppressive, he said to Wang Kai sternly: "Wang is engaged, Prime Minister Cao's request can be agreed, but Prime Minister Cao has to canonize me on behalf of the court, and he has to send two hundred craftsmen of various colors. How about a hundred blacksmiths among them?"

Wang Kai frowned: "Peng Zongshuai, you are the lion's big mouth. It doesn't work, one hundred craftsmen, fifty blacksmiths, how about?"

"A word is settled!"

Peng Hu agreed and smiled.

"Well, if that's the case, if someone is inconvenient to stay longer, I have to go back and report to Prime Minister Cao as soon as possible." Wang Kai stood up and said goodbye to Peng Hu.

"Peng Zongshuai doesn't need to send him off, waiting for good news from Zongshuai."
