"You don't have it, but other tribes have it. We are willing to take in the Han people in distress for a long time..."

The words of the dragon leader made Commander Wu's eyes light up.

The Manniu tribe can grow into a large tribe of ten thousand riders, and the military commander's ability is quite good. Others have not figured it out, but he has already seen the mystery.

The Dragon Territory needs people, and the officials are hinting to them that they can recruit Han people from other tribes!

As for how to make money, whether it is friendly trade or robbery, it has nothing to do with the Dragon Territory. What the Dragon Territory wants is people, Han people to be precise. There are many player territories in the Hetao, which have existed since the beginning of the game. The territories have been upgraded and developed.

Grassland tribes know that they need population support. No matter how powerful the Dragon Territory is, it still needs to follow the rules if it wants to develop, that is, sufficient population.

Recalling the various situations in which the Dragon Leader's cavalry attacked and plundered many times, escorted the population of small tribes back to their strongholds several times, and escorted villagers from outside, it was obvious that the development of the Dragon Leader was hampered by the population. The military commander felt a little emotional about his future.

Afterwards, I realized that the rumor among many tribes that "the dragon leader deliberately humiliated the Qiang and Hu tribes" was not the case at all. It was clearly because the territory was desolate and it was a last resort!

It is such a ridiculous judgment to think that Longling intends to use the power of villages and towns to fight against the Hetao Qiang and Hu.

The battle with the Zhehan Tribe and the coalition forces of the four tribes was enough to remind the Dragon Leader that the development of a single stronghold in Hetao should be more low-key. Although the Dragon Leader won several wars and gained the power to continue development,

If something went wrong in the process and the Dragon Leader was defeated, it was likely to be wiped out directly. Now the Dragon Leader has taken the initiative to "take in the Han people in distress for a long time". It seems that it has realized that the benefits of sending cavalry to rob are not small, but the risk is not small, and plans to use

Relatively gentle way to gain population.

The population is obtained through trading, do you want the Manniu Department to accept it?

catch!

Four Han slaves were exchanged for one Qianghu warrior. Objectively speaking, the value of Han slaves was still overestimated. Even if they were exchanged from other tribes, such a transaction was profitable and should not be missed. Wu Shuai estimated that the dragon leader should

I started to try, but the allied forces of the four tribes failed to attack and were made dumplings. It was difficult to deal with the captives, so they improvised and came up with a way to redeem people. As expected, other tribes have not received the news. The Manniu tribe

If you can seize this opportunity, you are likely to make a lot of money from it.

With the reputation of the Dragon Territory, not many tribes are willing to deal with it. This is the opportunity for the Barbarian Bull Tribe.

The Manniu Division had just collapsed in the Dragon Territory and suffered heavy losses, which had no impact on the military commander at all.

In the chaotic river, we see a lot of fighting and killing between tribes. When you win, you drink and eat meat, and when you lose, you swallow your anger. Those who should be soft should be soft, and those who should be allies should form alliances. When you are stronger, you can take revenge. You can earn back everything. You have fought against each other.

It is immature and not a good thing for the tribe to just stay away from each other until death. Wu Shuai can bring the Barbarian tribe to its current scale. Naturally, he knows how to survive on the grassland. After being beaten up, he will be more considerate.

Opinions such as kneeling down and licking him have no effect on him at all. The military commander's way of survival is very simple: do what is good for the tribe, even if it requires cooperation with the enemy, it is not a problem for him.

The military commander, who was disguised as an ordinary Qiang Hu, no longer bothered with the disguise and walked straight to the dragon leader officials.

"Your ministry is willing to take in Han Chinese for a long time?"

"That's right."

"You need a collaborator. There are many places you can't go to. I can help collect Han people," Commander Wu said in a deep voice, "But I want to know, after we redeem the people, what are you willing to give in exchange for the Han people?"

The transferred official looked at Wu Shuai in surprise. Seeing that the Qiang and Hu next to him did not say a word, and had no special expression for Wu Shuai's words, he guessed that the other person's identity might be unusual. The transferred official had no intention of spying on the other person's true identity.

Relevant information needs to be told to these Qiang and Hu step by step. The requirements of the territory should not be too urgent. Commander Wu took the initiative to ask questions, which just allowed him to save the link of asking questions.

"War horses, cattle, sheep, grain, utensils, and armor can all be exchanged."

"Are you willing to exchange food for soldiers and armor?" Commander Wu became excited.

The nomadic people live in pursuit of water and grass, and their production is very unstable. If there is a disaster on the grassland, some people will go hungry. To be honest, the fights between tribes are mostly for food. The fight for pasture is to make the livestock grow better, and the robbery of the Han people is also

In order to make a living, everyone knows that people will die in a war, and it is easy to make enemies, but if more people die, there will be less talk, and the chance of others surviving will be greater.

Tribes with sufficient food can easily expand and grow, and can even annex other tribes without using force. As for armor, nomads are not good at smelting, and this land is too dangerous. High-quality armor can help them survive better.

"Yes." The transferred official gave him an affirmative reply, "If we have your clansmen on hand, we can also exchange them. In this way, the size of your department can grow faster."

Commander Wu burst into tears.

He found that he had underestimated Dragon Territory's expansion ambitions.

"If we have your tribe in our hands" means that the Dragon Leader will still be able to use troops in the future. Qianghu is a collective name for multiple races. If the Dragon Leader attacks other Qianghu tribes and there are Huns among the prisoners, they can follow

Manniu's transactions not only obtain corresponding benefits, but also indirectly help partners grow.

Really smart.

Done!

"We have our first collaborator." Zhai Jiu said with a smile.

Xu Shu nodded: "If there is the first, there will be the second and the third. Some time ago, we were regarded as public enemies of the Qiang and Hu. This is not a good thing. Using trade to gradually change the image in the minds of the Qiang and Hu people, in the long run

It is necessary to see. We have the ability to do business with the Qiang and Hu in the Hetao, especially grain, and through trade, we can slowly reduce the hostility of the Qiang and Hu towards us."

During these days of staying in Longling, Xu Shu completely understood that food was a strategic material in Hetao.

Food is the most important thing for the people, but the food supply system in Hetao has serious flaws.

According to the classification of ethnic groups and belongings, there are three main groups in Hetao.

The first is the tribes of the Qiang and Hu. The Qiang and Hu are unable to grow food, and their income as nomads is very unstable.

The second is the NPC Han stronghold. With the withdrawal of the imperial power from the Hetao, the security of the NPC Han strongholds at the village and town level is not guaranteed, and they are tormented by Qiang and Hu at various times. The production of Han NPCs who are good at farming is greatly affected. They have little problem in feeding themselves, but selling food to outsiders is not.

There is no way to do it.

The last group is player territory.

Although player territories can produce food, city-level territories are dragged down by population and require more and more subsidiary territories to produce food to meet the needs of the main city. In addition, the development of territories requires a large amount of funds, and lords need to constantly balance economic industry and

Grain production ratio, usually there will not be much surplus of grain.

Territories that have paid protection fees are slightly more stable. Territories that refuse to pay protection fees will never be peaceful. The Qiang and Hu cannot attack the main city protected by stone walls, but they can cause harm to the affiliated territories. It is not enough to grab something from time to time. The Qiang

Hu are accustomed to robbing people and setting fires, so food production is destroyed, causing some territories to face food crises. The Qiang and Hu often blow in the autumn wind, and the subordinate territories are like lambs waiting to be slaughtered, and the territories lack the desire to expand food production.

The importance of food can be seen by Zhulu Ling, and other players can also see it.

There are also player territories that plan to vigorously produce food and trade with the Qiang and Hu to obtain returns, but no one has succeeded. The Qiang and Hu tribes believe in the law of the jungle. Why should they trade things that can be taken by force? Those who produce food are all subsidiary territories, and subsidiary territories

It's usually easy to grab. As for whether doing this is killing the goose that lays the egg, who cares? So the lords quickly gave up on this idea.

The three major groups are not stable, and it is difficult to fundamentally solve the food problem in the Hetao.

Whoever can provide a stable supply of food can prosper in the Hetao.

Zhululing has the ability to import grain to the Hetao because it has the backing of the ant caravan. The caravan has entered the Hetao, and grain is one of the three main commodities of the ant caravan. With the grain, it opens the Hetao market and launches soldiers, armor and daily necessities.

, in the future, if you have sufficient funds, you can also try to purchase Qiang and Hu goods, transport them back to the mainland for profit, and strive to make Longling the Hetao trade center!

Longling is trying to transform.

The deterrent power of the Dragon Territory has spread throughout the Hetao, and it is about to enter the urban stage. There is no problem of weak defense of the affiliated territories. Even if someone covets the wealth of the Dragon Territory, they can only look at the city and sigh. In addition, the food is transported by caravans, and Zhu Jun is watching.

Well, I believe there are not many people who dare to take ideas from the Dragon Leader.

"That's fine. Trading for people is much gentler than sending cavalry out to rob. When we did the task of [Recovering Shangjun], the dragon leader was not so easy to be taken advantage of. Since we entered the Hetao, the investment in the Hetao territory has been

Increase, let alone other things, too many troops are consumed here, Zhulu Leader and Feiyu Leader have insufficient troops, and it is not a good thing to be like this for a long time." Yu Buzhi also said.

He had always thought that the Loop was a trap, but now he finally saw a glimmer of hope for escape.

The Dragon Leader's side came to an end for the time being, and Yu Buzhi and Xu Shu quickly returned to the Zhulu Leader.

Preparations for the Battle of Famous City are coming to an end.

The elite level of the troops recruited some time ago has reached [ordinary level]. The new recruits have never been on the battlefield and are obviously feeling a little nervous. They can be used as a starting point, which will also provide a big boost to the legion's skills.

The Bailian soldiers and the Wudang flying army are also ready for the war. These two ace troops have been battle-hardened for a long time and have made countless military exploits for the territory in previous battles. They are the most reliable elite troops in the Zhulu army. There was one time

After experiencing a bloody battle on the battlefield, Bai Zhen and Fei Jun seemed very relaxed, but in fact the two special units were loose on the outside and tight on the inside. The opponents in the famous city battle were very powerful, and they could not quit in the middle. Either win or die, Chen Dao and Wang Ping knew it very well.

Bearing their own responsibilities, Bai Ge and Fei Jun must stand up and help the territory win the famous city battle. The murderous aura condensed by the two special units becomes more and more solid.

An army arrived outside Zhulu City.

"My troops have arrived, Brother Zhi." Zifeng said in the wartime chat room.

"Okay." Yu Buzhi responded quickly, and then began to criticize the Tianxia Legion, "Where are the scum of the Tianxia Legion? The Zifeng family's troops have come over, and none of your five territories have arrived. If you want to save the appearance fee,

Well, I don’t have money now, and even if I have money, I can’t indulge in scum.”

How could everyone in the world tolerate Yu's unwise provocation and spoke out one after another.

"What are you talking about? Who is the scum!"

"The appointed time hasn't come yet, why are you panicking!"

"You are so stubborn when asking for help. I finally saw it today."

"Report to the head of the regiment, Bi Fang is leading the troops to apply for return, please give me your approval!" Bi Zhi expressed his dissatisfaction.

"I agree. It's up to you whether the other four families want to come." Roaring Halo decisively added insult to injury.

"Hahaha! Our soldier brother is back too!" Jelly Pudding gloated.

The worst is the financial officer of the world.

"Who said there was no money just now?" Xueyin said leisurely: "I remember, it's time for Zhulu Ling to pay back the money."

Before the battle between the four tribes, he was worried that too many Qianghu would attack the Dragon Territory. Yu Buzhi borrowed money to prepare for emergencies. However, it was not used and he did not return it immediately. The Mingcheng War was about to start. In case the territory had any

What's going on, maybe we have to mobilize troops remotely. Xueyin knew that Yu Buzhi was poor now, so he deliberately collected debts to make someone stop being arrogant.
