Royal Road

Hearing this, Zhu Fada was taken aback. A group of other Huns still use the envoy to greet them in person? However, after thinking about it, he understood what the other party meant. For these tribes who fled and defected, the most important thing is to sincerely submit. If these people are half-hearted, it would be a curse to be around. On the one hand, coming out in person can show importance, on the other hand, it is not a shock. This is precisely to use the identity of "Buddha" to the extreme.

After understanding the seriousness of the matter, Zhu Fada stopped talking, and obediently followed Liang Feng out of the city.

Sitting in the simple camp, the patriarch of the Bailu tribe was quite unsure. Before the Jin army attacked Lishi, their tribe was also forced to recruit soldiers, and more than 200 people were lost. This is equivalent to a quarter of the number of soldiers in the tribe, but the king's account is still not satisfied. After a few days, I am afraid that he will be enlisted again.

How many times can a small tribe survive? In addition to providing soldiers, but also to pay horses, cattle and sheep for the needs of the army. In previous years, it was not unbearable, but this year, Lishi Dahuang, there is no harvest, and even the pasture has been gnawed seven or eight. From the elderly to the children in the clan, all hungry faces are yellow and thin. How to prepare for next year's munitions?

Therefore, when the monk appeared in front of him and brought the news of Bingzhou's surrender, Patriarch Bailu was really moved. The patriarch of the Oxhorn tribe, who happened to be not far from his tribe, believed deeply in Buddhism, so he encouraged the Oxhorn tribe to come together to cast the ambassador to Liang. The name of the Lord's Buddha is well known in Lishi. Patriarch Niu Jiao agreed without saying a word, and together with his wife Hulin Clan, San Bu embarked on the road to escape.

But when he finally reached the foot of Jinyang City, Patriarch Bailu became scared again. He is not like the messy people in the horns, as long as there is Buddha's care, he is satisfied. What if Liang Shijun, like the Dongying father who was in charge of the merged state back then, would only enslave them, and even arrest the tribesmen and sell them as slaves? Moreover, the taxation of the Jin country is also very high, and his tribe has reached the point of exhaustion, how can it cope with the excessive collection of officials?

I don't know when that monk can bring back the news. What if Liang Shijun is unwilling to accept them? Or like when the old ambassador Liang was in Bingzhou, he captured the noble chiefs into the city and killed them, and then enlisted other tribesmen into the army...

Patriarch Bailu shuddered. He is not young, and he still heard from his ancestors about Liang Xi's methods in Bingzhou. Although my own tribe may not be seen by others, it is still impossible to get rid of fear and awe.

While thinking wildly, there was a sudden clamor and the sound of horseshoes outside the camp.

He stood up awkwardly, Patriarch Bailu picked up the curtain and walked out of the camp. When he saw the foreground, the cold sweat on his back immediately rolled off. That was the soldiers who came out of Jinyang City, with more than 500 riders, and they all wore armors! Such a cavalry, an elite that can only be supported by the king's account in the Xiongnu, how did they suddenly come to their camp? Could it be that Liang Shijun repented and wanted to wipe them out?

Before the Bailu Patriarch could react, the cavalry team had already stretched out like waves, and a black steed stood in the center like stars holding the moon. Immediately, sat a handsome man who could not be described in words. Under the scorching sunlight, it is almost like a white jade carving, which can give birth to a faint brilliance. When that person appeared, the entire camp was silent for a moment. The next moment, the patriarch of the horns pushed aside the crowd and fell to the ground with a grunt.

"Buddha! The villain sees the Buddha!"

Patriarch Bailu was full of spirits. Yes, this is the legendary Liang Shijun! Only Liang Shijun can have such a guard, such an appearance! Why did he come out of the camp himself?

However, countless thoughts couldn't resist the enthusiasm in his eyes. Patriarch Bailu staggered a few steps and knelt down beside the patriarch Niuhorn: "Mengthu worships the envoy!"

The two patriarchs both bowed respectfully, and other talents gradually reacted and knelt down. This is a huge camp where thousands of people are stationed. When everyone kneels down like a docile lamb, it naturally produces a shocking power.

Liang Feng narrowed his eyes slightly and raised his voice: "You were originally citizens of the Jin country, born in Bingzhou and growing up in Guan, but you were trapped by the Huns and the pseudo-Han. Now you are willing to return to the country and come under your own authority. ?"

The patriarch of Niujiao, who understands Chinese, immediately choked up and said: "If the Buddha is willing to take in the villain, the villain should contribute!"

Other people also responded one after another. There was also a glimmer of hope in the head of the White Deer. The envoy did not dislike their Hu people's blood, but bluntly said that he, who grew up in Bingzhou, was also a citizen of the Jin country. Yes, even the Huns were originally Jin citizens, why are they not? !

Seeing the louder and louder calls below, Liang Feng nodded: "Since you are ruling the people, you should be bound by me. Ninety miles from Jinyang, close to Wuxiang, there is a valley with lush aquatic plants, plus nearby barren fields. Can feed thousands of people. I can give you this valley, and when the famine is over in the next spring, I will pay taxes according to the people of Jinyang. But in exchange, you must set aside half of the fighters for me. ."

Patriarch Bailu hurriedly raised his head: "Zhijun Mingjian, my ministry is already small, if we separate out so many soldiers, I'm afraid it will be powerless to defend against the enemy..."

Liang Feng waved his hand gently: "The valley is surrounded by counties under my jurisdiction. There is no worry about banditry. You can live in peace. As for the soldiers, as long as you give enough, you will be exempt from half of your taxes."

As soon as the words were spoken, they immediately caused a commotion. This is much more generous than imagined! Patriarch Bailu trembled with excitement as he looked at the figure riding on the horse. Under the rule of the Xiongnu, they also had to send troops to fight, but they could only pick up the leftovers and pay a lot of food, grass, horses and sheep. The young and strong in the clan are pitiful, and the pressure of farming and animal husbandry is piled on the old and weak, women and children, and dozens of people will die in a single winter.

Now that there is land for grazing and farming, and homes that can be stable and worry-free, even the tribesmen can get exemption from participating in war. Are there better conditions than this? !

He hadn't spoken yet, but the patriarch of Bullhorn had already shouted: "Buddha is compassionate, give us a peaceful place! The villain is willing to do the same for Buddha!"

He shouted out everyone's heart. Patriarch Bailu also lowered his head and bowed to the man who was sitting immediately. He didn't regard his other minions as inferior servants, but treated them as equals as he treated the people. Escape from Lishi is really the most correct choice!

Looking at the newly attached people who bowed their heads to court, Zhu Fada could not help but sigh softly. This Liang Shijun actually doesn't really need himself, as long as he is given such preferential treatment, maybe after a year or a half, the rest of Lishi will all run away. This is a reassurance for those nonsense, and is it not a wake-up call for yourself?

After setting up everything, Liang Feng turned his head and said to Zhu Fa: "The Master has worked hard along the way. Now that the Huai'en Temple has been repaired, you can invite the Master to come to Jinyang."

Zhu Fada heard the meaning of Liang Feng's words, this was to let them live with the monks of Huai'en Temple, and did not plan to divide the temple. However, seeing today’s scene, think again about Liang Feng’s newly-acquired captaincy official position. Zhu Fada put his hands together and chanted the Buddha's name: “Thank you for taking in. The little monk will spread the Dharma for the emperor and stabilize the people’s mind.”

Do you understand your position? Liang Feng smiled slightly: "There is Master Lao."

"The treasury must be counted as soon as possible, and the new grain team must set off tomorrow. There is still fodder and sufficient forage."

These days, Duan Qin has never slept much. The war in Xinxing County reignited, and as a rear, it was necessary to prepare enough food. This is an unexpected battle, and the food needed is not a small amount. Thanks to Zhang Bin's extraordinary ability, the 6,000 reinforcements of the Tuoba Department were all self-provided food, which saved a large amount of consumption for the treasury. However, the pasture still needs to be sufficient. The main force in this battle is the cavalry, and maintaining horsepower is also the top priority, and it is still not an easy job.

After Pei Dun's death, the governor's mansion naturally returned to the governor's mansion. The original Liu Changshi and Zhang Sima were also removed, and the affairs of the governor's house suddenly became busy. However, Duan Qin did not show any fatigue, as if some kind of power surged in his body, he had endless energy!

After dealing with the treasury matters, he called the Shuzuo again and said: “The Huns who are resettled in Wuxiang must report their household registration population as soon as possible so that they can settle down. And there will be Xintun. In the future, the refugees from Wuxiang will also You can consider living nearby. Water conservancy facilities should also be prepared as soon as possible. There will be less rain this autumn, so beware of the spring drought next year."

Xinxing County is about to be calmed down, and Xihe Country has unexpectedly turned for the better. Hu Sengzhu Fada really played a lot of use. Those other Huns who were slaves had turned away from the pseudo-Han and began to migrate towards Jinyang. If more tribes can be excavated and Lishi can become an empty city, the Xiongnu can be allowed to evacuate Bingzhou without even sending troops. In this way, the entire territory of the state will return to the master's hands.

How long is this? A piece of scorched earth is about to come back to life. And this is just the beginning.

When Zhang Bin came to vote that day, Duan Qin was also sitting in the room, listening to him to finish everything. At that moment, he almost forgot his identity as the mastermind. Yes, step by step, he has walked out from Xiaoxiaogao. He has followed the lord to Lucheng and then from Shangdang to Jinyang. Every step is extremely difficult. However, he never thought that the lord could take the Sima family instead!

Why can't it? Sima took away Cao Wei Zhengshuo, and it has only been a mere fifty years. It was only eighty years ago that Emperor Wei Wen sought to seize the Han family and dominate the Northland.

Is the world really set? Actually not. On the contrary, because the two dynasties successively conspired to usurp the throne, it caused endless disputes and rebellious officials. Even if the emperor is changed in Luoyang City, what will happen?

Sima is not worthy of the world! And looking at Liu Yuan, Sima Ying, and even Wang Jun who dominated Youzhou, and Wang Mi who rebelled in the army, all these people who are powerful and powerful, can one compare to his Patriarch?

Only the lord can truly determine this river and mountain! And he couldn't see through this point, so he needed someone to wear it!

At that moment, Duan Qin understood that his talent was far inferior to Zhang Bin. But this recognition never made him lose, but instead made him full of fighting spirit. Among the top three in the early Han Dynasty, Xiao He is also far inferior to Zhang Liang and Han Xin? However, without Xiao He, there would be no inexhaustible food and grass, and there would be no back for the prosperity of the country and the people. He is no talent, but it is not impossible to be a steward who can stabilize the rear.

When he wanted to understand this, Duan Qin felt that the world had changed. Besides, besides the affairs at hand, he also has another task, which is to help the lord distinguish his subordinates. Who can work together for a great cause, and who will fall to the Sima clan. He will also distinguish one by one for the lord, to ensure that the people's heart is going.

With such a goal, what is the trivial matter in front of you?

After carefully giving instructions, Duan Qin opened the case again, and began to review it.
