Chapter 206: The tribe becomes a village
Chapter 206: The tribe becomes a village
In the past, Xidu rushed to teach the barbarian tribe the cultivation technique, but now people are kneeling and begging, and the contrast is so great that people are shocked and secretly refreshed at the same time.
Whether it was Wu Tong or Yao Yun, or Cang Man who was standing quietly on the side, his face was full of smiles.
Yao Yun waved his hand and signaled everyone to be quiet.
"If you want to learn the art of farming, Lone Nature will support you, rest assured, Lone will send experienced old farmers to teach you. ”
"Thank you, King!" The leaders of the tribes were relieved when they heard that King Xi had promised to come down, and the big stones hanging in their hearts fell to the ground.
"Great King, your secret recipe for producing three stones per mu," the leader of the Snake King asked cautiously.
This is the most concerned issue of the tribal leaders, and the reason why they put their posture so low is that they are tempted by the "yield of three stones per mu".
When Wu Tong heard this, his white eyebrows raised, and a warm smile bloomed on his old face, before he was still wondering why the barbarians suddenly changed their sex, and they actually knelt down in a low voice and begged Xidu to teach them the art of farming, so it was.
couldn't help but turn his gaze to Yao Yun, this is all the king's layout, the original measures didn't seem to be anything at first glance, but after thinking about it carefully, all this won't be in the king's calculations, right?
Yao Yun didn't think as much as Wu Tong, he was not surprised by the barbarians' reaction, in this era of material scarcity, it was a big deal to solve the problem of food and clothing, as long as it could make life better, the barbarians would naturally flock to it.
"The secret recipe will be taught to you, but if you reclaim the wasteland in the first year, I'm afraid the harvest in the first year will not be too good, and this mu yield of three stones may not be there!"
Yao Yun thought about it and replied, he naturally wouldn't cherish himself, if he treated the barbarians in the mountains differently from the beginning, then it would be difficult to win their hearts and minds.
"Thank you King, the King is so good to us, we will obey the King's orders in the future!" The leaders of the major tribes looked at each of them and found that everyone's eyes were beaming with joy.
The natives in the mountains were happy, and Yao Yun was also greatly relieved, once the natives in the mountains accepted the way of life of farming and hunting, had a stable residence and had a close connection with Xi, then Yao Yun was initially in control of them.
Thinking of this, Yao Yun thought of something, so he said:
"All the leaders have the intention of cultivating the wasteland, so it is bound to be all over the fields in the future, and the crops need to be taken care of from time to time, and the activities are frequent, which will inevitably cause the wild things in the mountains to peep, the fierce beasts in the mountains are like clouds, and there are many fierce beasts, monsters and ghosts, and the big tribes can still protect themselves and stabilize the situation, but many small tribes may be difficult to deal with."
Yao Yun's words are reasonable and thought-provoking to think about the problem from the standpoint of the barbarian tribe.
Especially when the leaders of the small and medium-sized tribes heard Yao Yun's words, they were shocked into a cold sweat one by one, they were happy before, and they only thought of the beautiful scene of "three stones per mu" in the future, but they ignored the thrill in it.
The mountains are full of dangers, and if you are not careful, it will be a disaster, and in the past, small tribes used to live in hiding.
Acting in the wilderness in the open and unscrupulous is a luxury for most of the people of the small tribe.
A few years ago, the barbarians did not pay attention to learning to farm, and after sowing seeds, they did not care about the fields, so they naturally did not need to consider the safety of this aspect, but now they are sincerely learning the art of farming, so the situation is different.
If you want to have a bumper harvest of "three stones per mu", then you must take good care of the fields, and taking care of the fields requires a lot of labor to go out to work, which is almost a disaster for small tribes.
How many ferocious beasts and demons will covet it!
For a while, the smiles of the small tribal leaders froze, full of loss, and those powerful tribal leaders could still maintain their composure, but their faces sank, and they lost their previous ecstasy.
Haoshan was the most knowledgeable of the tribal leaders, and he knew that since the king had spoken out about this difficulty, the king must have a clever plan to solve it.
"Please show us a clear way!
When the tribal leaders heard Haoshan's words, they suddenly woke up like a dream, and they fell to the ground one after another: "Ask the king to save us!"
Seeing that the leaders of the various departments respectfully and humbly asked for advice, Yao Yun sighed in his heart that he didn't look away at the beginning, Haoshan was indeed a talent, and he was very eye-catching.
"Well, I've thought about it, but I only need to do two things. ”
"What two points, king?"
"The first is the tribal settlement, the formation of a small township, a large yi, several tribes choose a good place, move to live together, huddle for warmth, watch and help each other, people are afraid of wild beasts, but once there are many people gathered, wild beasts are also afraid of people, so that safety can be guaranteed, farming and hunting two flowers. ”
When the small tribes heard this, they frowned, a little hesitant and a little moved in their hearts.
Immediately afterwards, Yao Yun said: "Second, form an army. It is not enough to keep warm in a group, whether it is a large tribe or a village settlement, it is always very passive to the invasion of wild things in the mountains, which has a bad impact on our farming activities, so we need a strong army to maintain peace in the mountains. ”
"Your Majesty, will you send the Xidu army?"
When everyone heard this, they were quite moved, but they were also a little worried, on the one hand, they hoped that King Xi would send an army to protect them, but they were also afraid that King Xi would have a plan.
After all, the army is a weapon of murder, which can kill the enemy as well as hurt oneself.
Yao Yun immediately shook his head, what are you kidding, you haven't started to pay taxes to Lone, and Lone will send an army to protect you, it's really a sweet dream!
"Lone is not going to send a large army, or Lone will only send a part of the people, this army is to protect all the departments in the mountains, it is related to the people of the entire Xi country, you are all part of it, so this army is led by Lone, and the tribes send warriors to form a joint formation, I don't know what you think?"
As soon as the tribes heard this, the doubts in their hearts immediately disappeared without a trace, and if the men and horses of the army were composed of people from the tribes of the mountains, then there would be no problem.
"The king is wise!"
All of a sudden, the hall was bustling with discussion, with discussions on everything from tribal settlements in the countryside to the formation of an army.
This discussion lasted for a whole day, and the tribes came in anticipation and returned in high spirits.
At sunset, Yao Yun and Wu Tong stood on the wall of Xidu and watched the tribal leaders return home.
Wu Tong's mind was still wandering around the events of the day.
I have to say that the king's proposal to form a new army is the best choice, which can not only reduce their defensive psychology, but also expand the king's influence, and in the future, we can also collect taxes in the name of training the army to achieve the goal of completely ruling them.
Killing three birds with one stone, it's really wonderful.
Thinking of this, Wu Tong was a little curious, how did the king think of this, so he asked.
"Your Majesty, why don't you send out an army of Qiong and form a new army instead?"
"They haven't paid taxes to Gu yet, so why should Gu send an army to protect them!"
Wu Tong was stunned for a moment, it made sense, and the old man was speechless.
He originally thought that the king had a perfect plan, starting from this new army to gradually expand its influence and achieve the goal of completely dominating all the tribes in the mountains, but looking at the king's stingy appearance, it seems.
Perhaps this is the gap between imagination and reality.
The king is still small, still small.
Umtong said he was hurt.
At this moment, Yao Yun spoke again: "Second Elder, in the future, the tribes and towns of the whole country, Gu will be able to truly control this country." ”
Wu Tong was stunned for a moment, he could hear a lot of deep meaning in the king's words, and he also understood that the king was thinking far-reaching, and for a while, he found that he couldn't understand his little king.
