Sweep the World

When Lian Chengbo found something wrong, he thought it must be the hidden troops of the Han Dynasty. He didn't believe that the Han army would leave.

It had been tossing like that until the early morning of the third day, when Liu Yan led the army back, Lian Chengbo proudly told his nephew.

"See, we are more patient than them." Lian Chengbo didn't know he had been fooled: "they ambushed for two days and lost patience. They came out. If we really thought they weren't there and went to attack the camp, we would be besieged."

Liu Yan's army is really "taking" Jijin city. All the Hu people there can run have run away. They were occupied by the Han Dynasty without any resistance at all.

After the city was occupied, the local Hu people expressed obedience. This time, Ji Chang did not suggest that all the Hu people in the city should be killed as if they were not the city. Instead, he suggested that Liu Yan express an attitude of letting bygones be bygones to the greatest extent.

The Han Dynasty is still weak and cannot be too exclusive of the Hu people. Being too exclusive of the Hu people will make them cut themselves off from the world. The Hu people in Jijin city should be treated like cabinet county, support a family, destroy the original largest family in Jijin City, and rule the Hu people with the hands of the Hu people.

The Hu people will support the Jin people to suppress the Jin people. Why can't the Han ministry support the Hu people to suppress the Hu people? Find out which is the largest family in Jijin city. Liu Yan quickly chose a Hu family in the middle reaches, destroyed the original largest family in Jijin City, ran things well in one day, left the necessary Guard troops and took the troops home.

In fact, Liu Yan had some expectations for the occupation of Jijin city. Unfortunately, he didn't wait for any "reward" until the occupation. It was just that the occupation of the county in his mind changed from 124 to 224, and then there was no more fart.

Back to the camp, the troops drove in to do the necessary rest. Liu Yan asked Li Kuang and learned that the Hu horse team outside had been tossing vigorously in three days, but there was no real-time exploratory attack.

"Good plan, sir!" When Liu Yan should be praised, he was never stingy: "so, next, do as planned?"

Ji Chang is very happy that his judgment is correct. He made a suggestion to Liu Yan that the Hu horse team should not follow like an asshole, which would cause great inconvenience to their next series of actions. His suggestion was to send scouts to find the location of the tribe of the Hu horse team and try to contact the Hu horse team. It's certainly good to settle it peacefully. If not, start with the tribe of the horse team.

In this way, lianchengbo welcomed a group of people from the Han Dynasty to invite dialogue.

The one who went out to talk was Li Kuang, who asked for his life. He didn't bring many people, just a dozen people who rode well.

Lian Chengbo had long doubted his judgment, but he couldn't show it. In the face of a dozen riders from the Han Dynasty who showed a negotiating attitude, he threatened them very deliberately. When he saw that they didn't seem to scare the group of Han people, he would be accused of leaving the horse if he wanted to surround them. After tossing for most of the day, he chose to ride with twenty riders.

"Trade or war?" There was no surprise on Lian Chengbo's face. Instead, he took it for granted and asked, "if you trade, what do you trade?"

Li Kuang looked at the more five meters away, at some cunning Hu leaders, and shouted, "the Han Dynasty produces weapons and salt. You can exchange slaves, cattle, sheep, or things we think useful."

"Weapons and salt!" Lian Chengbo was surprised at last, but he was not surprised that the Han ministry was willing to trade these two kinds. It was the Han ministry that could make weapons and produce salt. His eyes wandered: "the deal is OK, but you have to compensate us for 100 weapons first!"

"My family knew you would say so." Li Kuangshi showed disdain and shouted: "my family doesn't care. You've been magnanimous, so don't mention the compensation. If you trade, twelve cows, a sword, or a knife, or 35 sheep, trade one with three war horses. Salt... Slaves..." shouted a large string of data and calmed down to look at Liancheng Bo.

About the compensation, Lian Chengbo said casually, but he didn't intend to finish it. He threatened: "you deal with us, but you're afraid of us, if..."

"Well, just keep fighting. We don't need grazing. We can find where your tribe is anytime, anywhere and all the time. After that, you don't want to herd safely!" Li Kuang looked disdainful and arrogant. He pulled the reins and drank to his companions: "negotiation failed, go!"

"Wait!" Lian Chengbo's attitude was more correct: "how do I know you're not going to cheat us?"

"Believe it or not, it's up to you. Love or not, it's up to you." Without stopping to leave, Li Kuang turned his head and said, "we are willing to wait for you for three days. We want to trade and bring the goods according to the number just now. If we don't want to trade, you and I will continue to fight."

Lian Chengbo looked at the ten horses galloping away and fell into meditation.

Weapons and salt! The importance of weapons in troubled times does not need too much words. Even the regular army of the imperial court does not have weapons for everyone. As for salt? Now there are not many people selling salt at all. Most people use other salty things instead.

"Uncle?" Liancheng Boda licked his lips: "this is a rare opportunity."

If it's not rare, will Lian Chengbo hesitate? He was really worried that it was just a trap set by the Han ministry. All transactions were fake, just to set up a game to kill them. But that's weapons and salt! No matter how much money you have, it's not something you can buy!

"Immediately send someone to ask the families in cabinet county to see if the Han Dynasty really produces a lot of weapons and salt!" Lian Chengbo chose a more secure method: "if it's true..., it must be a transaction!"

It's a little far away from cabinet county, but you can go back and forth in a morning. Lian Chengbo soon knew the answer. More than one family in cabinet county was trading weapons and salt bars with the Han Dynasty. The number of weapons was limited, but the number of salt bars was not limited.

On the other hand, Ji Chang is communicating with Liu Yan. He is not relaxed about looking for lianchengbo tribe. He is also planning to destroy lianchengbo tribe. It depends on whether lianchengbo is really so cautious.

"It doesn't matter. If you can't destroy it, you'll really trade." Of course, Liu Yan would control the number of weapons, but he would liberalize the supply of salt: "we need a large number of people. If we can't destroy this tribe, let them tell more tribes that we can exchange slaves for weapons or salt here. Even if it's not all people, horses, cattle and sheep, we need them very much."

Ji Chang immediately looked excited: "you are wise!", He saluted and then said, "in this way, the benefits of not destroying the zahu tribe outweigh the disadvantages. We should not take the initiative to fight again, but we can use them to transport the population. Population, sir! With the population, we will continue to grow, and then..."

"Capture the whole peninsula first!" Liu Yan looked excited, but his heart was extremely tangled. He won Jijin city without reward for building another urban center, and the upper limit of the system population did not increase. He said very firmly: "it is impossible to capture the whole Qingzhou in a short time, then build a stable rear!"
