It is said that learning from the barbarians and gaining skills to control the barbarians, Yuan Shu's current idea is to use the grassland people to fight the grassland people. In the end, the only person who will benefit from their internal friction is himself, the third party.
"My lord is indeed a genius. I think you are doing this not only to reduce our own losses, but you must have follow-up plans."
Tian Feng looked at Yuan Shu with a strange light in his eyes.
"Have you seen through all this? Tell me."
Hearing Tian Feng's words, Yuan Shu couldn't help but be stunned. What else did he mean?
"Lord, I have to say that your plan is very cruel. If this recruitment is successful, the Wuhuan and Xianbei people who were hired will definitely not be passive in their work and will fight bravely to get the promised rewards.
, this is one of them,
Secondly, the longer the war goes on, the greater the mutual casualties will be, and the strength of the various ethnic groups in the grassland will be unknowingly consumed.
The third is the most obscure and deadly. Casualties will breed huge hatred, so that the targets of the grassland ethnic groups will not only focus on us Han people, but also on other ethnic groups that have brought them sorrow and pain.
Once the hatred is sown, as long as we provide a little guidance, such as exchanging the heads of foreign warriors for corresponding grain and grass, under the dual stimulation of hatred and interests, a war will definitely begin between them.
The casualties will become even greater during the war. In such a vicious cycle, I don’t know how the strength of the prairie people will be depleted. But what I know is that in the end, if we send out troops again, we will definitely be able to wipe out all the prairie people."
Tian Feng became more and more excited as he talked, and the light in his eyes became brighter and brighter. He could even see the Han flag flying across the entire grassland in the near future.
"Cough cough cough."
He just thought of learning from the foreigners and gaining skills to defeat the foreigners. He really didn't expect that Tian Feng would come up with so many things in his mind.
"Gongda, do you have anything else to add?"
Now that everything has been said, Yuan Shu wants to see how many more fantastic ideas his advisers can use.
"My lord, if it is true as Yuan Hao said, I do have something to add that may be needed for your arrangement in Fuping."
Xun You looked at Yuan Shu, and a different light appeared on his face.
"how to say?"
Hearing Xun You mention Fuping, whom he had arranged a long time ago, Yuan Shu guessed that this guy might have some big plans.
"My lord, if you want to truly occupy the grassland, it is not enough to drive out and eliminate the grassland people.
Even if the Qiang and Hu people leave, and the Huns leave, there will still be other grassland people popping up, like weeds that will never dry up, and the only way to solve this problem is migration.
Only by migrating enough Han people to the grasslands, assimilating them, turning their pastures into our pastures and cultivating the fields, can we fundamentally solve them."
Xun You's opinion is a supplement to Tian Feng's words. Only by turning the grassland into a place full of Han people can the problem of regulating the alien races on the grassland be fundamentally solved.
"Well, what Gongda said is true."
Tian Feng nodded, agreeing very much with Xun You's opinion.
"Yes, yes, these are all follow-up. The most important thing for us now is to open this end."
Yuan Shu was really pleased to hear the brainstorming of the two great masters. If he could really follow what they said, conquering the grassland might not be a dream anymore.
"promise."
"promise."
The two looked at each other, smiled, and then clasped their fists toward Yuan Shu together.
"Well, take a look at the four over there."
The plans for the next few decades have been discussed here, but over there Zhao Yun and the four are still tinkering with the stirrups.
"My lord, what is the output of this stirrup?"
Zhao Yun really couldn't put it down for this stirrup. He couldn't imagine how much power his elite men could unleash with this thing.
"For the production volume, you have to ask Mr. Wen."
Zheng Hun is young and promising, with superb skills. He has been appointed by Master Zhou as the master craftsman of the craftsmanship camp, and he seems to have the tendency to become the leader of the craftsmanship camp.
"General Zilong, how many pairs do you want?"
Zheng Hun looked at the four generals Zhao Yun and couldn't help but smile.
"How much do you need? My lord will expand the cavalry to 50,000 people. Plus the direct cavalry of each army, we will need at least 70,000 stirrups."
Zhao Yun thought for a moment and gave his answer.
"Seventy thousand pairs? One month is enough."
Zheng Hun made an estimate and then gave the answer that Zhao Yun wanted to know.
"Okay, Mr. Wen, then I'll leave everything to you. By the way, Zilong, you may not know that our craftsmanship camp has even more powerful things."
Yuan Shu's words made everyone's eyes gleam. They had already seen repeating crossbows, stirrups and horseshoes. They really didn't know what else could make Yuan Shu say something more powerful.
"Lord, please stop showing off. What else is there? What else is there?"
Zhao Yun now seems like a curious baby, he has understood the lord's magic.
"Mr. Wen, bring that up."
Looking at everyone's appearance, Yuan Shu couldn't help but feel very helpful and nodded directly to Zheng Hun.
"promise."
After a while, Zheng Hun once again carried a wooden tray, covered with a layer of red cloth.
Yuan Shu looked at everyone's expectant eyes and couldn't help but grin.
"The Hun Jade Sword makes a shining appearance."
Without any hesitation, Yuan Shu directly opened the red cloth, and a steel knife folded and shone in the sun.
"Lord, isn't this just an ordinary steel knife?"
Not to mention the four generals Zhao Yun, Xun You and Tian Feng also had contact with each other from time to time when it came to swords. When they saw the Hun Yu Dao, they couldn't help but have a hint of disappointment in their eyes. Only Dian Wei smiled and remained silent.
"Haha, don't underestimate it, Zilong is here to get your knife."
Hearing Zhao Yun's words, Yuan Shu couldn't help but smile. Since you look down on it, let practice prove its value.
Zhao Yun very obediently handed the steel knife to Yuan Shu.
"rub."
Yuan Shu directly pulled out the steel sword in Zhao Yun's hand, and a cold light burst out instantly. This alone proved that Zhao Yun's sword was not as simple as an ordinary steel sword.
"What a great sword. This must be the Hundred Refined Sword."
Looking at the cloud patterns on Zhao Yun's sword, Yuan Shu also nodded.
"Yes, this is the Hundred Steel Knife."
Zhao Yun nodded. As the name suggests, the Bailian Steel Sword is a good sword that needs to be forged a hundred times before it can be formed. Although it is not as good as Yitian and Qinghong Swords, it is not as good as the Seven-Star Sword used by Ji Dong, but it can still be considered a comparison among the Three Kingdoms.
A good knife.
"Well, let's give it a try, Dian Wei."
Yuan Shu threw Zhao Yun's Hundred Refined Sword to Dian Wei, and then picked up the Hunyu Sword himself.
"promise."
Dian Wei looked at Zhao Yun's Hundred Refined Sword, a terrifying smile appeared on his lips, and then he held the sword in both hands in preparation.
"cut."
"cut."
Yuan Shu and Dian Wei shouted loudly at the same time, and then slashed at each other with their swords.
