Chapter 38 Heavy Snow

After the four people sat down, Tian Yu carefully asked about the situation on the grassland of Kirby Neng, and Kirby Neng took the opportunity to express his bitterness.

It turns out that since Zhang Chun and Qiu Liju returned to the grassland, they lost a lot of troops and livestock, so they tried their best to squeeze other tribes with the idea of ​​​​repairing the losses outside the wall. Although they could not defeat the Han army, they could not defeat the Han army on the grassland.

Those small tribes have no problem at all.

Zhang Chun was better off. He just wanted to grab some cattle and sheep for the winter. Qiu Liju wanted everything, including people, tents, and even cooking pots. They robbed everything, leaving only the old and the weak in the cold wind.

Shivering in the middle.

Kirby said angrily: "They took everything away, and then they let the remaining people die!"

When he spoke Chinese, he stuttered a bit and was confused, so except for short sentences, he always spoke in Xianbei dialect, and Yan Rou paraphrased them.

Tian Yu showed no sign of feeling the same. He said calmly: "So that's it. Then Chief Kirby will stay across the river first, and I will report it to the court."

Kirby said: "I wonder if your Excellency can set aside a piece of pasture for my people to graze?"

Tian Yu thought for a while, then looked at Chen Cheng and asked, "What do Wen Zheng think?"

Chen Cheng smiled and said, "The county magistrate can make the decision."

Tian Yu then said: "The open space across the river will be temporarily assigned to your tribe, and the rest will be discussed after the court's decision."

Kirby was able to move to the side, knelt down, put his forehead on the ground, and said, "Thank you, sir."

Tian Yu ignored him and smiled and said to Yan Ju: "I am going to write a letter to Ambassador Liu. Are you willing to send it to me?"

Yan Rou is naturally willing, and he is not stupid. Guanzicheng lacks women and craftsmen, but has many things, but will it lack a messenger? It is clear that Tian Yu wants to promote him.

Kirby was even more depressed. He also admired Yan Rou very much, so he entrusted all the affairs of the group to him. Even the county magistrate who came to meet the Han people was brought with him, but the talent was there

There are hot goods everywhere, and looking at this attitude, I'm afraid that people will look down on my small tribe in the future.

After being depressed for a while, Kebi Neng suddenly thought that he was pretty good to Yan Rou. If he could get an official position in the imperial court, it would be good for himself and the Xianbei people. So

When I think about it, I feel a lot less depressed.

During the whole conversation, Chen Cheng could just stay silent and just be a handsome man. Because he had already agreed with Tian Yu that he would return to the Central Plains after spring, so there was no need to judge him now.

. But although he just wants to be a quiet and beautiful man, things sometimes come to him.

After the matter was finished, Kirby was able to relax and said: "Sir, I heard from the Wuhuan people who returned to the grassland that there was a mighty general in the Han army who was nine feet tall and had a waist circumference of nine feet. He was invulnerable.

, is infinitely powerful and is the most powerful warrior in the world. Can you let me see him if he is not Tao?"

Tian Yu laughed, but Chen Cheng was a little depressed. He is nine feet tall and has a waist circumference of nine feet. Isn't that a square shape?

"The person you are talking about is this one!" Tian Yu laughed for a while, pointed at Chen Cheng and said, "But I'm afraid his waist is not nine feet tall."

"Huh?" Kirby's eyes widened, he looked Chen Cheng up and down, then shook his head and said, "Sir, you are joking. I heard that General Shenwei is invulnerable and powerful. This..."

Although he didn't say it explicitly, his meaning was very clear. Yes, although Chen Cheng has grown a little taller and has officially reached the threshold of the eight-foot warrior, his limbs are not too strong.

It is a little taller and looks a little slender.

This kind of body shape is very common among the children of aristocratic families and powerful families. For example, a villager who is preparing to farm in Nanyang is eight feet tall, isn't he?

Tian Yu smiled and said to Yan Ju: "Don't you think he is not like the mighty general?"

Yan Rou replied cautiously: "I have never seen General Shenwei Tian, ​​so I can't tell the difference."

Kirby Neng said a few words quickly, and Yan Rou listened and said: "Kirby Neng, please tell me if you can give us a demonstration..."

Tian Yu burst out laughing, turned to Chen Cheng and said, "Wen Zheng, this Xianbei man wants you to perform for him."

Chen Cheng smiled and did not answer.

Tian Yu turned his head, and the smile on his face disappeared immediately. He said coldly: "What kind of identity can Kirby have to dare to make such a request?"

Yan Rou was shocked when she saw Tian Yu's frosty face, but she forced herself to calm down and said: "That's not what Chief Kirby Neng meant..."

"What do you mean if you don't mean this?" Tian Yu interrupted him and said: "Rong, Di, jackals and wolves are something you can't hate; people in the Xia Dynasty are so close that you can't abandon them. You tell him that he will live across the river for a long time. If he meets

If they encounter difficulties and bullying, I will only make the decision for them. But if the files commit crimes, I will never be lenient!"

Yan Rou hesitated for a moment and relayed it to Kebi Neng in Xianbei dialect. Kebi Neng could actually understand Chinese, but he was not good at speaking it. His face had changed color just now. At this time, his fingers trembled slightly and he bowed respectfully.

The body said: "I will obey your orders!"

Tian Yu said: "If it's okay, just step back first."

After Kirby Neng and Yan Rou left, Chen Cheng smiled and said, "Guo Rang is so majestic!"

Tian Yu said: "Hu people are afraid of power and have no morals, so we should be tougher on them."

After finishing speaking, he unfolded a scroll of bamboo slips, picked up the writing brush, and wrote a memorial. After writing, he handed it to Chen Cheng and said, "Wen Zheng, help me take a look. Is there anything that needs to be revised?"

Chen Cheng smiled and said: "It's not like you don't know that I'm not good at words. How can I tell what I am saying?"

Although he said this, he still took the memorial, read it, and said: "Although the words are not very gorgeous, the meaning is this, just send it directly to the state pastor."

When Gongsun Zan was trapped in Guanzicheng, Youzhou was shocked three times a day, so the imperial court sent Liu Yu, who was very prestigious in the north, as the shepherd of Youzhou. He was Gongsun Zan's immediate boss.

Tian Yu pretended to be angry: "You said my literary talent is not good, why don't you write one?"

Chen Cheng laughed and said, "I can only write in white, but I don't want to do it anymore."

The so-called white characters are the simplified Chinese characters used by Chen Cheng. They have many fewer strokes than the small seal script, so they are also jokingly called white characters.

Having said this, Chen Cheng added: "I have left all the rules, regulations and household registration documents in the recording office. Guorang remembers to check them."

Tian Yu asked with a smile: "Are they all written in white?"

"Not all," Chen Cheng said seriously: "Not the first two volumes!"

Tian Yu laughed, and Chen Cheng also laughed.

A few days later, the weather suddenly turned cold. The north wind was howling, and the heavy snow finally fell. In just one night, the earth completely changed. Everything was covered in white, and as far as the eye could see, everything was covered in white.

The world of ice and snow. The three tigers saw fluffy snowflakes for the first time. They ran around on the snow very excitedly, leaving a series of paw prints.

Because the weather suddenly turned cold, many livestock froze to death, and some elderly people died. The Han people living in the city were better off, with thick walls to block the wind, and fire pits for warmth.

Very few. Dozens or hundreds of people from the Jin Sanhuan tribe and the Kirby Neng tribe who live outside the city froze to death overnight. For a tribe with only one or two thousand people, it can be regarded as a serious injury.

.

On the grassland, when it snows heavily in winter, it is a terrifying white disaster that everyone hears. But if there is less snow in winter, it will form a black disaster. No matter which kind it is, it is a terrible disaster for human beings.

Very unfriendly. In short, the grassland is such a fucked up place.

For the Xianbei people, it was even worse. Because they escaped from the Wuhuan people's sphere of influence, in addition to the number of horses, the number of cattle and sheep was very small. The animals that froze to death were eaten.

After that, they quickly ran out of food. They had no choice but to brave the heavy snow and go into the mountains to hunt, and suffered many casualties.

After freezing to death and injuring many people, Kebi Neng rushed to the city despite the heavy snow and begged Tian Yuneng to allow them to move to the city and allocate some food to their tribe.

Kebi Neng knelt on the cold ground and begged earnestly: "There are two thousand people in the tribe, whether they live or die, it's just a matter of your thoughts."

Tian Yu pondered for a long time and finally said: "This matter is of great importance, and there is not much food in the city. I want to discuss it with others. You get up first."

He said to Kebineng: "You can send the children, women and old people to the city first, and I will arrange a place for them to stay. Well, the number should not exceed three hundred people."

Ke Bi Neng was overjoyed and walked forward on his knees, saying, "Thank you so much, sir. The Immortal Heaven will definitely bless you!"

Tian Yu laughed dumbly and said: "I don't need the blessing of immortality."

He said to the audience: "Ask the county captain to vacate twenty houses near the school grounds."

After a while, the county lieutenant hurried over. He stamped his feet in the hall, shook his body, and wiped off the snowflakes on his feet. Then he came up to the hall and said: "County County Magistrate Tian, ​​this matter is absolutely impossible."

It’s absolutely impossible!”

Tian Yu said kindly: "Why not?"

The county captain complained bitterly: "There are only so many houses with fire pits in the city. If they are given to the Xianbei people, what will happen to our people? Also, if the houses are given to the Xianbei people, should we give them to the Wuhuan people?"

He gave Ke Bineng a sharp look at the side, stretched out his hand, and said: "I don't know how many times my hands have blistered because of road construction and coal digging! That's okay, just for road construction,

A dozen of us died!"

At the end, he said confidently: "We have worked hard to farm the food, and we have worked hard to dig out the coal. Why should we give it to others?"

Ke Bineng was extremely embarrassed, because he felt that what the county captain said was very reasonable, and he seemed unable to refute it. But when it came to the survival of the tribe, he could only bite the bullet and said: "God has the virtue of good life...

..."

After living near Guanzi City, his Chinese improved greatly.

The county captain ignored him and shouted to Tian Yu: "If you give me an order, then I have no choice but to accept it. But we don't accept giving things to barbarians!"

Tian Yu straightened his face, snorted, and said, "If you're not convinced, just hold it in and free up the house first!"

The official level suppressed people to death, and the county captain had no choice but to leave in anger.
