Chapter 1304: Chain Strategy (Additional update for Zhuge’s banishment to the star)
"How should we deal with the aftermath of this matter?"
Two thousand fine cavalry were lost, which was indeed a big defeat. [.\nCOM Situ’s updated chapters are the most complete and comprehensive, and error-free content is repaired in the most timely manner. Due to caching reasons, browser access is recommended.\nCOM official website]
If he had been a big man before he got Liangzhou, he would have been injured.
If it were a big man who had not yet taken Longyou, it would be impossible to say that the cavalry would be wiped out.
Now, it is enough to make Feng Da Sima feel heartbroken several times.
Dahan now has the bonus of animal husbandry and breeding technology. Liangzhou alone can produce more than 20,000 qualified war horses in a year - excluding the bulk goods sold to Wu.
Two thousand war horses is almost one-tenth of Liangzhou's annual war horse output.
If we include the large-scale cargo used to recharge the Wu Kingdom, as well as the military horses used for logistics transportation, daily training and other purposes, the price will not be 200,000.
Note that this is only the number of military horses in Liangzhou, not the civilian population.
Livestock breeding in Bingzhou is about to pick up.
In two years' time, Dahan's annual production of qualified war horses is estimated to be no less than 50,000 to 60,000.
The number of military horses directly controlled by the government alone will not be less than 300,000.
If we stockpile for another three to five years, as long as the grain production can keep up, we can easily pull out 500,000 horses, which will frighten the two countries Wei and Wu to death.
However, horses can be bred to produce offspring at will.
Elite cavalry, which can be grown up through many battles, cannot be cultivated casually.
In particular, the cavalry that can be sent to the grasslands, regardless of whether they are Han or Hu, are elite soldiers with political qualifications and excellent military skills.
Do you think Feng Da Sima can't help but feel distressed?
Faced with General Guan's question, Fengda Sima asked instead:
"What do you think, Mr. Xi?"
"I think there are two solutions."
"Tell me."
"First, the country has its own laws, and it's enough to let the officials follow the laws and regulations."
With that said, General Guan looked at Feng Da Sima and said pointedly:
"Lest anyone say that Alang broke the rules set by the Prime Minister."
Although both Liu Hun and Bald Khotan were born as barbarians.
But everyone knows that they are all close confidants of Feng Da Sima's old department.
Moreover, one came out of Nanxiang with someone Feng, and the other came out of Liangzhou with someone Feng.
It also bears an extremely distinct brand of the Feng family.
I'm afraid there will be many interested people watching how to deal with Liu Hun and others.
"What about the second one?"
General Guan replied:
"The second option is to sacrifice merit for crime. Isn't it because Alang sent Tufa Tianli to Youzhou to use his identity to deal with Xianbei in the east?"
"As for Liu Hun, he is the little prince of the Xiongnu in Bingzhou. Now his reputation is not low among the Xiongnu tribe."
"The two of them have fought for the Han Dynasty for many years. If they are allowed to exchange their merits for their crimes, it will not only make them more loyal, but it may also make the people of the tribe more loyal."
A general of the Hu people, he led his people to fight for the Han Dynasty for many years and achieved many military exploits.
what does that mean?
It means that people's hearts turn towards the Han people, which is a great success of the Han people in educating the barbarians.
Moreover, when Bingzhou was recovered, the Xiongnu in Bingzhou took the initiative to rebel and return to the Han Dynasty. They admired the Han people and were as hungry as thirsty.
It's hard to say that in the future, Bald Khotan could be used to educate Xianbei, just like the Xiongnu in Bingzhou.
In this way, wouldn't it be great to be able to achieve the martial arts of Emperor Xiaowu without wasting money and people?
"No need." Feng Dasima shook his head, "It's not necessary, just let Yousi handle it according to the law."
"The reason why the barbarians returned to the Han Dynasty was to join the rule of the Han Dynasty, not to be treated differently."
"Treating them differently will make them grateful for a while, but in the long run, it will only make them think that the big man does not regard them as one of his own."
"The unity of Han and barbarians not only includes rewards, but also punishments. Leniency for guilty cases will sooner or later make them arrogant, which will harm them."
General Guan seemed to have anticipated Feng Da Sima's choice, and was not surprised by what he said.
I saw her nodding and saying: "Okay, I understand."
"As for Pingcheng, you draw up an official document and ask the Hu Xianbei School Captain's Mansion to select 2,000 people from Hu Qiyi to fill the gap."
"In the absence of Hu Qiyi, Liu Hun was asked to find a way to recruit another thousand people from the Huns in Bingzhou, and the remaining one thousand people were asked to be recruited from the Xianbei people by Tufa Tianli."
After the reorganization of the Han army, in view of Hu Qiyi's outstanding performance in the Battle of Guanzhong, this military system with reserve characteristics was retained.
Most of the Hu people who followed Hu Qiyi were herdsmen on pastures or pastures, and some were even Hu nobles.
In frontier fortresses or places where Hu people gather, every autumn, the generals or military commanders of Hu Qi Yi Cong will organize an autumn hunt.
The content is mainly about horseback shooting, horseback fighting, and horseback sprinting. There are also martial arts and skill items such as Jiaodong (wrestling, wrestling and jumping), Shoubo (boxing skills), and Cuju (ancient football sport).
On the surface it is said to be hunting, but in fact it is a military exercise plus a military assessment.
Participants include not only Hu Qiyi Cong, but also Hu people outside Yicong, and even Han people who are interested can participate.
Those who fail to pass Hu Qiyi will be eliminated from the Yi Congjun, and another person with excellent skills from the tribe will be selected to fill in.
Once selected as a Hu Qi Yi Cong, half of the family's taxes can be exempted, and at the same time, a son or daughter can be sent to the school for free.
Those who have passed the qualifications for three consecutive years and are not eliminated will be qualified to be selected into the Han army. Any vacancies will be filled.
If you enter the Han army, you will officially enjoy the same treatment as the Han soldiers.
As a soldier, you eat food and receive rewards for your meritorious service.
For the lower class people of the Han Dynasty and their descendants, there are two main ways to cross classes:
Either join the army and risk your life to provide a future for your parents and wife.
Either study, go to school, advance to a college, pass the exam, and successfully land.
The former requires luck, while the latter requires talent and luck.
The Han people are like this, let alone the Hu people?
Moreover, for the Hu people, it was far easier to ride horses, shoot arrows, and charge into battle than to compete with the Han people in school.
Therefore, the selection of Hu Qiyi has always been very fierce.
It was precisely because of Hu Qiyi's selection system that Feng Da Sima could quickly make up for the lack of troops in Bingzhou.
The only thing to worry about is when the replacement Hu Qi will be able to get used to it.
As for combat effectiveness, it is certain that it will drop a bit.
This is also something that can't be helped.
"For the students who went to the martial arts hall this year, let's send more students to Pingcheng."
Feng Da Sima ordered again.
"good."
After dealing with this matter, Feng Da Sima felt a little thirsty and was about to reach for the tea cup when he suddenly saw someone taking the initiative to fill it for him.
When I looked up, it turned out to be Hua Xiaowu.
"Huh? You didn't leave? Are you still here?"
When Hua Xiaowu heard this, his face was filled with resentment:
"Have you not finished giving instructions regarding Jiaozhou?"
"Oh!" Feng Dasima slapped his forehead, "I almost forgot about this serious matter."
As he spoke, he stood up:
"Just wait, I'll go to the secretary's room first."
General Guan originally wanted to leave, but when he heard "Secretary's Room", he immediately didn't want to leave.
The so-called secretary's room refers to the secretary's study room, not the secretary's room.
It is a small house specially built with cement.
The main purpose is to prevent water leakage.
There is nothing else inside, just bookshelves made of cement, filled with books and manuscripts.
These books and manuscripts were written down by Feng Da Sima to prevent him from forgetting his past life, regardless of whether they were useful or not.
Originally it was just one big box, but over time, one big box turned into two big boxes, and then into many boxes.
Finally, I felt that the box was inconvenient, so I turned it into a bookshelf.
In the eyes of General Guan, these books and manuscripts are all the unparalleled knowledge and top-secret knowledge of the Alang sect.
Originally, apart from A Lang, she was the only one who had the key, but unfortunately later there was another person named Zhang - what a pity, what a pity.
At this time, when he heard that Alang wanted to go to the secretary's room and glanced at Hua Xiaowu again, General Guan asked:
"What are you doing in the secretary's room?"
"Get a book."
This makes it even more important to ask clearly!
"What book does A Lang want to get?" General Guan had already stood up, "I'll go help A Lang get it."
Feng Da Sima stood up, paused, and then said:
"Then Lao Xijun, please help me take out the book with a wordless cover from the top row of bookshelf three."
"Okay, Alang, wait a moment."
After General Guan left, Feng Da Sima ordered Hua Xiaowu, who had a strange look on his face:
"What do you look like? Go and put the pen and ink on it."
After a while, General Guan came back with a book and the same strange look on his face.
Pass the book to Feng Dashima:
"Alang, do you want this book?"
"Exactly."
General Guan looked at Feng Da Sima seriously, then at Hua Xiaowu, who looked innocent, and couldn't help but ask:
"Alang wants this book, this is..."
Feng Dasima chuckled:
"Revise it and send it to Jiuzhen Rinan."
General Guan suddenly understood:
"Alang is trying to deceive Sun Quan again?"
"Serial plan, I gave you a copy of "Insect Valley of Dian Kingdom" last time, and I will give you another one this time..."
Emperor Sun, come on!
One day, you will find the immortal.
Even if you can't find it, these books I gave you will surely be enough to strengthen your belief in cultivating immortality.
There is no point in living for too long. It is better to cultivate more and meet the gods as soon as possible.
Feng Da Sima turned to look at Hua Xiaowu and asked:
"Is there any small country over there where a queen is in charge? Or was there a queen in charge?"
Hua Xiaowu nodded:
"Yes, Funan is. Funan was formerly ruled by a queen. I heard that it was not until more than a hundred years ago, and some say it was more than two hundred years ago, that a queen named Liu Ye married a man named Chun.
Let a man rule."
Feng Dashima originally asked casually, but he didn't expect that he could actually get the answer he wanted most.
Hua Xiaowu's words immediately surprised and delighted him, and he slapped his thigh:
"Really? That's great. Now we don't even have to edit it! Let's call this book "Queen of Funan"!"
When General Guan next to him heard this, the corners of his phoenix eyes, which were almost identical to his daughter's, immediately raised slightly.
Of course she knew that this book named "Queen of Funan" was another fantasy novel written by A Lang after "Insect Valley of Dian Kingdom".
It's the same series as "Insect Valley of Dian Kingdom".
If Alang hadn't vowed to beg for mercy on the bed, the things mentioned in these books would really be false.
She was almost certain that Alang's sect was really connected to a certain fairyland called "The Land of Nothingness".
Feng Da Sima sat down, picked up his pen, dipped it in ink, and prepared to write on the cover of the book. Then he drew a horizontal line, then raised his head and looked at General Guan.
General Guan shook his head:
"I still have to go to the front to handle things."
As he said that, he raised the military report in his hand, then turned around and left.
She really isn't free.
Moreover, this book was one of the books in the secretary's room that she could understand, and she had memorized almost all the contents in the book.
Naturally there is no need to stay any longer at this time.
Feng Dasima handed the pen to Hua Xiaowu: "Here you go."
Although Hua Xiaowu is a barbarian girl, as the daughter of Meng Huo and the patriarch of the Zhurong tribe, she must be familiar with Han culture.
Not only is he literate, but he is also good at handwriting...at least now he is better than Feng Da Sima.
"What?"
Hua Xiaowu took the pen in a daze.
"Sit down, I'll read, and you write. Here, write Queen Funan."
"what's next?"
"Open it and let me see where it needs to be modified first."
The sound of turning books was heard.
…
"Turn over! Here...turn over again, and here..."
"Turn over, why don't you turn over, turn over quickly..."
"Oh, wait a minute."
"Turn it over again...why don't you turn it over?"
"I haven't finished reading it yet. I'll look at it later."
"Hurry up!"
"No hurries?"
Hua Xiaowu's voice also became a little anxious, "I haven't finished reading yet!"
Feng was so angry that he cursed: "Cao!"
After a while, Hua Xiaowu's voice was heard again:
"Alang, did you write this?"
"No, it was written by your husband-in-law."
If my handwriting is so good, why should I use your ghostwriting?
"Is the above thing true?"
"Fake."
"I don't believe it! It must be true. You changed it now just to deceive the world and don't want the world to know the truth, right?"
"no."
"I don't believe it! If it's fake, why did Mrs. Zuo hide it in the secretary's room?"
"There's so much nonsense, please write it quickly! I'm telling you, if this thing is done, I might be able to give our son a thousand households, maybe even three thousand."
"Really?"
Hua Xiaowu suddenly raised his head and looked at Feng Da Sima brightly.
Feng Da Sima chuckled: "Do you want the Marquis of Funan?"
"want!"
Hua Xiaowu was so excited that his body began to tremble:
"What should I do?"
"Don't just go there and make money by defrauding other people. Instead, train more of your own people. Remember, they are your own people. After all, you have thirty years, which is enough for you to have grandchildren."
Feng Da Sima pointed out, "In the future, the Han will destroy the Wu Kingdom. Jiuzhen and Rinan are so far away. It will be a waste of money and food to send a large army there."
"If that time comes, your people, whether in your name or in the name of our son, will lead the local people to respond to the three-pronged Han Dynasty, drive away the Wu people, and make Jiuzhen Rinan and even Jiaozhi return to the Han Dynasty.
"
"If we invite a group of chiefs from small countries to come to Chang'an to pay tribute, Your Majesty will not be able to justify not rewarding them."
What is enlightenment?
This is called enlightenment!
What does it mean to yearn for the Han Dynasty and feel hungry and thirsty?
This is!
"Besides, the sky is high over there and the Emperor is far away, so we definitely need to send a trustworthy person to guard it. It is best to have someone who is familiar with the situation there to help."
"At that time, anyone who is not a fool will think of you, the daughter of the Meng family, the patriarch of the Zhurong clan, the flower lady, and the wife of General Guan."
Feng Da Sima cupped his hands and said with a smile:
"It doesn't matter if it's not convenient for Lady Hua to come forward in person. Doesn't she have a son? For her son, she will definitely not stand idly by, right?"
Hua Xiaowu's eyes were filled with stars. She was so excited that she threw away her pen, hugged Feng Da Sima's waist, rubbed her little face against it, her breath was hot, and she whispered:
"Alang, you are so kind!"
Hua Xiaowu was really moved by Ah Lang's plan for her.
"Hmm..."
"Hiss!" Feng Dasima suddenly raised his head, gritted his teeth and stared, took a breath of cold air, and then let out a long sigh:
