Chapter 1841 The wolf and the white deer, the ancestors of the huge empire
In addition to Ma Kuo, there were also Xiao Jiasui, Yan Qing, Hua Rong, Hu Yanqing and others gathered in the festival hall. The red-haired and yellow-bearded, skinny and rough-looking leader sitting at the end of the table was shocked at first glance. It was Duan Jing who was looking around with his head open. Not only did he seem a little restrained, but his eyes also showed a little doubt from time to time.
Because Duan Jingzhu was puzzled when he thought about it. He had a specialization in the art, and he was just a leader who transferred the war cavalry of the armies and purchased the war horses. He usually took care of his own responsibilities. Naturally, there was no need to teach him this during military discussions. The golden retrievers who were fighting in the battle came to participate. However, when discussing the important matters of the march today, brother Xiao Tang asked him to come and discuss it in detail. Duan Jingzhu was astonished and had no idea that he could send troops in such an occasion. For what purpose?
Zhimo is also because birds of a feather flock together. Apart from Duan Jingzhu's red hair and yellow beard, which may appear at first glance, if his appearance and temperament are similar to those of Wu Song, Yan Qing, Xiao Jiasui, Hua Rong, etc., he may be a majestic and masculine man, or he may be suave and heroic. , compared with the talented and romantic heroes, one can judge at a glance. After all, he is a horse thief, and Duan Jingzhu can't help but reveal some wretched habits in his movements, so he has always been in tune with the times. Brothers such as Sheng, Zhang Ren, and Li Yi were relatively close to each other. However, Duan Jingzhu did not have the skills to fly over eaves and walk over walls and sneak into the enemy's city without anyone noticing. Bai Sheng, Zhang Ren, and Li Yi He no longer had to do the old business of stealing wine shops and stealing money. Now he was just helping out when counting and transporting military supplies. However, Duan Jingzhu was not sure why he was brought out alone to attend this military meeting. Feeling uncomfortable, I couldn't help but become more reserved.
However, when Ma Kuangyan mentioned the title Mengwu Shiwei, Duan Jingzhu's originally full of panic expression suddenly brightened up, and he probably already knew the reason why brother Xiao Tang called him by name.
Xiao Tang knew that Duan Jingzhu was not only a smart man but also a clever person. In the past, he was engaged in horse stealing business in the northern border area. Being able to recognize good horses was only one of his specialties. In fact, Duan Jingzhu also had a very high talent for language. This skill was taught by Duan Jingzhu, who had been hunting in the north for a long time. He was not only proficient in Khitan, Jurchen, Dangxiang... but also the water and grass habitats in Mobei. Nowadays, it is customary to refer to it as The language spoken by the tribes of the Mongol and Wei tribes.
Based on this, it won't be long before Duan Jingzhu will be able to work with Ma Kuo and Hu Yanqing, who are proficient in various languages. However, before, after all, they had limited contact with various tribes and tribes in Mobei. time to show his ability.
After hearing Ma Zangfan's summary of the situation of various tribes and tribes in the Mingbei area that were nominally under the rule of the Jin Kingdom, Xiao Tang thought for a moment, and then said in a long voice: "If you want to aggressively expand the border to Mobei, the first military strategy is still to capture the Liao Dynasty." At the beginning of the dynasty, the capital was located in Linhuang Mansion (later the southern suburb of Lindong Town, Balinzuo Banner, Chifeng City, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region). Although the city of Linhuang Mansion was divided into Han and Imperial cities, and built two to three feet high walls, Guolou, and oars, it was also made of Jin people. It controls the key location of the northern boundary. However, now that the Jin Kingdom is frightened, they must gather the remaining troops and horses to try to protect Shangjing, Tokyo Road, where the Jurchen tribes made their fortune. Except for Linhuang Mansion, the northern area of the Jin Kingdom is vast and sparsely populated, not to mention the sparse cities. Fighting and fighting have intensified the change in the people's mentality. However, if the northern capital of the Jin people can be captured in one fell swoop, the rest of the people must have dispersed and fled. As for what Brother Ma Kuo said about the Jin people, All the tribes and tribes under the control of Jisu's policy depend on livestock herding for their livelihood, and they move to and from water and grass without a fixed place. Except for the Zahu tribe who surrendered to the Jin army and became other troops, of course they must be killed when they encounter them. , don’t show any mercy. If you encounter other dispersed and displaced ethnic groups, avoid any disputes or conflicts with them in the first place.
I intend to entrust the two brothers Ma Kuo and Hu Yanqing with the important task of negotiating with those tribes one after another with your ability to negotiate with those tribes. However, I also know that this will not be accomplished overnight. According to what I have seen and heard in Mobei before.
, among the tribes of Wei in the Mengwu clan, there are also tribes such as Qiyan, Zadalan, Taichiwu, Hongjila, Wulianghe, Tataer, Mierqi, Weyila... etc., each with its own head.
The leaders of the tribes and peoples are scattered and scattered, and they are not subordinate to each other. They are either enemies or friends of each other, forming a scattered and antagonistic situation. The two of you must first find out which groups are powerful among those tribes.
What kind of thoughts do you have about the Kingdom of Jin? So which tribes must be wined over with gentleness, and which tribes must be suppressed and frightened? Only then can we prescribe the right medicine..."
Ma Kuo and Hu Yanqing immediately nodded and said yes. As Xiao Tang said, his eyes quickly fell on Duan Jingzhu, who was sitting at the end of the table, and then said: "Brother Duan Jingzhu, I want to teach you something."
You also follow the army north to the desert outside the Great Wall. Not only do you have to start from Ma Kuan, but the two brothers Hu Yanqing will assist you with interpretation. It is bitterly cold outside the Great Wall, and the nomadic people migrate thousands of miles every year to compete for a piece of rich grassland.
The tribes still have to fight to the death, but when there are black and white disasters, livelihood is even more difficult. You can also buy horses in the name of each other, contact the tribes you met first, and barter with them for food, cloth, and utensils...
....When the tribes outside the Great Wall were in short supply of goods and spread the news, they said that the Jin people were unjust and unruly, and that the destruction of the country was a foregone conclusion sooner or later. I would replace the Jin people with the country, and planned to open an official exchange market in the northern part of the Great Wall.
, exchange things that each other needs.
As for the income, there is no need to compare it with baht. As long as anyone is willing to come to negotiate and negotiate with the tribe, if there is a bad year and disaster, I may not be able to lend a helping hand to help other tribes and people... until the Mongols outside the Great Wall
The tribes of Shiwei informed each other about their migrations. Once they heard the news, most of them would come to check out what was going on. This would also teach them to predict my thoughts and save them from having to search for the homeless people from place to place in the vast territory outside the Great Wall.
The traces of the tribes in the settlement are in vain, and they may not be able to see much results. When the tribes can communicate with each other, how to negotiate with the tribal leaders, that is, it is necessary to expand the horse, Huyanqing Duojia
It’s a lot of work and effort.”
After Duan Jingzhu heard this, he stood up immediately, patted his chest and said, "So that's how it is. Back then, my younger brother stole horses while wandering around in the northern border... Ahem, when he was wandering around, he also fought with several tribes in Wei Zhong, the Mengwu clan.
They have interacted with each other, and at least they have learned that nonsense. Although they have not used words before, they are a bit unfamiliar, but they should be able to communicate with them and teach them to understand their brother's thoughts. Zhemo went to Mobei outside the Great Wall to do some business, and picked up Wei Tong from the Mengwu room.
He can also speak proficiently, and in doing this interpreting work, he will definitely live up to my brother’s trust!"
Mengwu Shiwei... is actually just a very general name for the season...
When Xiao Tang spoke to encourage Duan Jingzhu, he couldn't help but secretly say it in his heart, and a solemn look appeared on his brows.
Of course, there were some things that Xiao Tang couldn't express clearly to the brothers in front of him who didn't know a hundred years of history behind him. How could they know that no matter how powerful the Jin Kingdom was, according to the official history, it could only annex half of the Song Dynasty and spread all over the grasslands and deserts.
The various tribes that are now scattered and divided and seem to be unviable will eventually be unified. Not only did they completely destroy the Song Dynasty by going south, but the Jin, Xia, Xiliao... and other empires were also swallowed up and destroyed by it, and even the iron hoof swept across and ravaged Europe.
Asia continent, and established the most extensive empire in world history?
At first, because of the multiplication of descendants and the expenses of the clan, the people who lived in impermanent places were collectively called Da Ta, Da Ta, Ta Tan... and many other titles. In the Tang Dynasty, they were called Mengwu Shiwei. However,
As the times progress, when another hero will eventually conquer and unify the various tribes, the various tribes of the Mongol, Wu, and Wei tribes will be completely integrated and united into one nation. According to the original trajectory, it will be like the Jin people who destroyed the Liao Dynasty.
, established a powerful empire that conquered countless ethnic groups and destroyed many countries according to its original trajectory...
Of course, Xiao Tang was also very aware of that nation, which was later called Mongolia.
