"My general is willing to redeem one person with one thousand dan. The total is 10,000 dan. The extra thousand dan is my general's special thanks to Governor Yang..." The envoy came to the Western Capital for the fourth time.

Xidu is not too far from Guzang, nor is it too close, so we have to hurry up and take about two days.

"How much?" Yang Zheng suspected that he heard wrongly.

Although you can bargain, the difference between ten thousand stone and one million stone is too big, right?

This is treating yourself like a beggar.

I felt a little embarrassed at first.

"President Hu has been collecting grains sent from Chang'an these days. It's more than 700,000 dan. Why should we give some to Xiping?" Yang Zheng pointed out directly.

Besides, even if Hu Fen is short of food, will Deng Ai be short of food?

After many years of farming, everyone near and far knows that Nan'an is rich and prosperous.

Hu Fen and Wei Guan knew everything about what happened in Xiping, but Yang Zheng couldn't hide what happened in Yongliang.

The messenger's eyes looked a little strange.

"Go back and tell Governor Hu that there are indeed difficulties in Xiping. Ten thousand dan is not enough to fill the gap between the teeth. Let's do this. The fixed price is 30,000 dan per person. It is a fair price. The families of these generals can come up with it no matter what." Yang

Zhengdu helped them think about it.

Thirty-nine and twenty-seven, two hundred and seventy thousand shi of grain...

The price gap between the two parties was too big, and Yang Zheng refused to let go, so the envoy could only leave in disgrace.

As soon as September passes in Xiping, the weather turns cooler.

But the busy work in various places continues, opening fields, leveling land, building roads, and building canals.

Probably Hu Fen was a little annoyed by Yang Zheng's lion mouth.

Several Hu tribesmen went south to plunder, and encountered Jiang Fanye's Qiang soldiers, and returned with a heavy defeat.

Appropriate enemy attacks also made the people share the same hatred with the Xiping military government.

Some tribes in the deep mountains and old forests in the north were not very popular before, but now they are all obedient.

The private camp commanders and commanders who were sent there were also treated with courtesy.

Good news spreads frequently from the south.

After the implementation of the twelve-turn military merit system, the combat effectiveness of the government soldiers exploded, which was equivalent to fighting for themselves, and everyone worked hard without caring about their own lives.

However, the Qiang people are still in a slave society and their soldiers are not fully prepared for war.

More than a hundred years ago, when dealing with the Han army, they rushed forward with a hoe and a sharpened stick and howled.

When they discovered that the enemies carrying ring-headed knives, holding spears, and wearing leather and iron armor were also Qiang people, how great was the psychological impact on them?

The four-pronged soldiers marched straight in and were often able to defeat several times the number of enemies.

Yang Zheng was quite pleased to see the good news.

A system that can last for four to five hundred years in the vast history naturally has its own uniqueness.

And Yang Zheng can clearly feel that since the enactment of a series of measures such as dividing land and reducing taxes, and the military system, Xiping has also entered a period of rapid development.

Every autumn, barbarians from the Western Regions head south to the Xihai Grassland.

This year, the West Sea was calm and calm, but some Xiaohu tribes requested to be included and were placed near Longqi.

Shao Tong's strategy of sinicization is the most radical. With a knife, life or death is up to you.

"Five thousand dan per person, no more." The envoy from Guzang returned for the fifth time.

Yang Zheng was almost certain that the person he was bargaining with was not Hu Fen. Hu Fen had a forthright temperament and would not be so arrogant about spending money, so it must be Wei Guan.

"Twenty thousand dan per person, no less." Naturally, Yang Zheng would not agree to the price of 5,000 dan.

But this time the envoy came well prepared and seemed to know Yang Zheng's psychological value.

I come here three times a day, every penny is polished, every penny is worth it.

Yang Zheng was so annoyed that he finally agreed on ten thousand dan per person. With nine people, Hu Qi asked for 20,000 dan, making a total of 100,000 dan.

Hu Fen offered 30,000 yuan, and Deng Ai offered 70,000 yuan...

It can be considered a small fortune.

Several of the generals were overjoyed.

These days, those who can become generals in the Wei army rarely come from the bottom.

Most of them have some background and family background.

They had always been pampered, but in Xiping they worked like ordinary soldiers, had the same diet and rest, which was a double torture to them both mentally and physically.

The others followed without looking back. Only Huangfu Kai bowed to Yang Zheng and handed over his hand.

Yang Zheng also returned the favor.

The Anding Huangfu family can be regarded as the generals since the Han and Wei dynasties. Huangfu Gui, one of the Three Ming Dynasties in Liangzhou, and Huangfu Song, one of the three generals in the late Han Dynasty, were all descended from the Anding Huangfu family.

If Mr. Anding Hu hadn't hugged Sima Yi's thigh, he wouldn't have been qualified to carry Mr. Huangfu's shoes.

In the rapids of troubled times, the scholar family is also ups and downs.

In the past few days, Jiuyeying had been observing secretly, and Yang Zheng roughly knew what Huangfu Kai was thinking.

After staying in Xiping for more than half a year, I saw and felt it.

The general will also choose sides.

It's just that Yang Zheng's power is now limited to the Xiping corner of Jincheng, while the Huangfu family is in peace, and it is impossible to risk the annihilation of the family and defect to him.

Deng Ai learned a lot from his mistakes. This guy is now extremely cunning. He only stares at Yang Zheng with his red eyes. He cooperates with Wei Guan in Liangzhou and severely tortures everyone who comes in and out of Jincheng from east to west.

Several soldiers from the Nine Camps were captured by him.

As a result, there is less and less news from the east.

It was temporarily difficult to break through in the east, so Yang Zheng focused his energy on the north.

Wei Guan is determined to rectify and refine it, but the area currently controlled by Hu Fen is only Wuwei.

There is air leakage everywhere in Zhangye, Jiuquan, and Dunhuang.

Without Deng Ai's control over the place, it would be impossible to completely block it.

"Wuwei has also implemented the government army system recently!" Meng Guan brought back a piece of news that surprised Yang Zheng.

"Where did he get the land?" Yang Zheng asked curiously.

I feel like I've been plagiarized...

There is an inexplicable anger and an inexplicable expectation.

If Hu Fenwei plagiarizes himself, doesn’t that mean he is identifying with himself?

But the implementation of the military system is not that simple.

There are many Qiang and Hus in the northwest but few Han. The first step is to complete the Sinicization. However, Wuwei is the Xiongnu and Xianbei and has its own royal lineage. Sinicization is very difficult, unlike the Qiang people in Xiping who are scattered.

Secondly, the Qianghu in Wuwei are mostly nomadic tribes and cannot farm...

The reason why Yang Zheng implemented the government army system was that he had to make a lot of preliminary preparations.

Farming system, slaves, waiting to be returned, one-stop management of the people.

Designed a relatively perfect system of integration and ascent...

Moreover, there are few people in Xipingtian.

Wuwei also has fields, but most of them are for powerful people, and most of them are grasslands...

"Hu Fen took over some official villages, and redeemed some middle and lower-level fields from the powerful, and distributed them to the Han army under his command..." Meng Guan himself felt a little funny.

It is indeed a beggar’s version of the government army system.

Yang Zheng is also a little funny,

This kind of courage to try to change is still worthy of praise.

In agricultural civilization, land is actually fighting power.

"How is Peng Hu doing recently?" Yang Zheng was quite concerned about his nominal father-in-law.

"Hu Fen took a fancy to him and kept him with him. He mobilized 1,700 cavalrymen from Peng's tribe. However, many of them have their thoughts on our side, and Jiuye Camp secretly has contact with them."

Marrying Peng Qingchan is equivalent to marrying a part of Peng's heart.

While Peng Hu was under house arrest in Xiping, many people in Peng's department secretly turned to Yang Zheng.

The battle against the Qiang strengthened their confidence.

Yang Zheng praised: "You did a good job. Hu Fen brought him with him not only because he liked him, but also for precaution."

"Wei Guan is a very shrewd person. Many of our people in Wuwei have been arrested," Meng Guan said in surprise.

"Let everyone lurk and cancel the reporting system every seven days. If there is no major news, there is no need to show up." Between Xiping and Wuwei, it is almost a clear sign.

In addition to detailed work, business trips can also bring back a lot of news.

No need to take any more risks.

As for the government military system, slaves waiting to be returned, and the twelve-turn military merit system, Yang Zheng didn't care. These things were all based on land and Sima and his son had no use for them.
