Chapter 308: Don't Talk, Shut Up
At this moment, Lu Jia is incarnated as a propaganda ambassador, and in order to achieve the best effect, he even does not hesitate to use his real experience to explain the law.
Of course, Lu Jia will never admit that there is still his existence by the side of the arrested king.
Now Lu Jia's identity is a Han envoy, and he naturally represents the Han Kingdom.
How can an emissary of a powerful empire be caught?
It can't be, it doesn't exist, don't talk nonsense......
"Ah???h Achar was completely confused.
Out of his confusion, he seemed to have no other choice.
"Even the mighty Qin State was defeated at the hands of the Han State? Wouldn't the Han Kingdom be even stronger? Achar said subconsciously.
The Qin State swept Liuhe, unified the country, and made the grassland people dare not easily attack at the border of the Great Wall.
The grassland people have suffered from the Qin army, and in the consciousness of the grassland people, only the strong will win.
So, the Xiongnu defeated so many small tribes, so they annexed them.
Then the Huns are strong.
The Xiongnu defeated their Yueshi, although the Yueshi people were not convinced, and they were not seriously injured, but they still could not hide the fact that the Huns were strong.
Then, this principle is also valid in the Central Plains Dynasty.
Therefore, after listening to Lu Jia's story, Achar directly thought that the Han State was much stronger than the Qin State.
Otherwise, how could there be a crushing situation in the battle situation?
"Of course it's the most powerful Han country, do you need to think about this?" Lu Jia laughed, looked at Achar and continued: "I'll tell you about it......"
As soon as Lu Jia spoke, he was embarrassed again, and thought for a while with a tangled face.
Looking at the expectant expression on Achar's face, he continued: "The Han Kingdom has invented a tactic and a new weapon, these two new things have a miraculous effect against the cavalry, as long as the cavalry dares to come, no matter how many men and horses he has, he has to stay more than ninety percent if he dies, but this kind of thing also has disadvantages, if the cavalry goes crazy and wants to escape, it will be difficult to catch ......up with the two legs of the infantry."
"Lu Envoy ......" Sui He's face changed suddenly, and he hurriedly spoke to dissuade him.
Is there such a new thing in the Han Kingdom?
Why don't I know?
Even if there is, it can't be said so easily.
If the nomads find out, will this battle not be fought in the future?
I used to think that Lu Jia was quite reliable, but why did he start talking nonsense after coming to Hanguo, and there was no way to talk about it?
"Don't talk!" Lu Jia's sharp eyes glared at Sui He.
"As a deputy envoy, I have the right to report to the king on your words and deeds on this journey!" Sui He was slightly angry, obviously angered by Lu Jia's attitude.
"If you love to report, go and report, that's your business, now I'm talking here, you just listen honestly, dare to intervene indiscriminately, be careful to punish your crimes." Lu Jia continued to say in a stern tone.
"You ......" is also the Lord who can speak well.
But now that he is under the fence, who made Lu Jia his boss.
I can't say it, I am a positive envoy, I am a deputy envoy, with a sub-word on my body, and I don't speak with hardness.
"Humph......"
Sui He snorted coldly, and then turned his head to the side.
Seeing that Sui He was angry and didn't interject, Lu Jia finally breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, turned to a smiling face, and continued to look at Achar.
"Come, let's continue, I see that you have a lot of horses, cattle and sheep in your family!"
"No, we don't have much in our family, most of them are tribal, and we're just in charge of grazing." Achar hurriedly denied it.
Lu Jia nodded, and continued, "Is your clan very big?" I don't see many people in your family, and you are given so many horses, cattle and sheep, what if you get lost? ”
"Our tribe is not large, only four or five thousand people, and more than three thousand of them are capable of fighting on horseback. As for the cattle, sheep and horses, when they were grazing, they belonged to the tribe, and when they were fighting, they were military rations, and if they lost them, they would be hungry, and if they didn't have horses, they would have to figure out their own way. Speaking of his clan, Achar's face finally showed a hint of pride.
Although they lost the battle, they can now only live in the Hetao area, which originally belonged to the Qin Dynasty.
But this still does not hinder the sense of pride and belonging in their hearts.
"How is it possible that there are more than 3,000 soldiers who can go on horses and fight?" Achar said it easily, but Lu Jia was the listener's intention.
This is simply impossible, and the King of Han is a monarch who pays more attention to the people.
But even so, during the battle to destroy Qin and Chu, it was only ordered that all localities should recruit troops according to the total number of local populations, and one out of ten would be taken.
Only this proportion of soldiers will not affect too much farming.
If you take two out of ten, the effect of the impact will be more obvious.
Just look at the state of Chu, more than half of this year's farming has basically been abandoned.
Before Lu Jia's envoy, the king of Han was already preparing to transfer grain and grass to Chudi and the people.
In the face of Lu Jia's questioning, Achar scratched his head a little embarrassedly, obviously realizing that he had blown his cowhide a little too much and was seen by others.
So he changed his words: "In fact, there are only more than 1,000 people who fought the war, and the remaining more than 2,000 people are their auxiliaries......
"Auxiliaries?" Lu Jia was stunned, his feelings were heavy soldiers.
If that's the case, the 3,000 soldiers are normal.
Before the Han Kingdom, the total number of people in the battle was counted, and the soldiers and logistics were counted.
But when it came to the Han Kingdom, only the real main forces were calculated.
The reason for this is that they did not recruit conscripts at all, and the only logistics baggage team they had was also a serious army, the kind with combat capability.
"Yes, my eldest brother is a soldier, when the war is in front, my father and I take horses and sheep to graze in the back, the Huns used to be like this, but now their life is better, after winning the battle, many small tribes have become their slaves, as long as the man is an adult, he will be given a few slaves and women, when the man goes to the front to fight, the slave will follow with cattle and sheep, and the other old men and women will follow behind......" Achar said with some envy on his face.
The days of the Huns are the days of people.
Who doesn't want to go into battle with a man on the prairie?
Who wouldn't want to plunder, to sleep with someone else's woman?
In the past, I always heard that the woman of the Qin State was called a water spirit, her skin was delicate and elastic, and her complexion was also very attractive, unlike the women on the grassland, who were exposed to the wind and sun, and her complexion was dark, not to mention, she still looked old.
They have few people here, so they have to do some work.
Therefore, when his eldest brother dies in battle, it will be his turn.
When he goes up, then he will be the head of the family.
That's right, whoever fights listens to whom, it doesn't matter if you are a father or a mother, your father is not dead, your mother is still a mother, and if your father is dead, your mother is not a mother.
The father and wife succeed, and the brother dies and the brother marries, which is the main theme here.
What morally immoral does not exist!
If it weren't for that, the nomads would have ceased to exist a long time ago.
This was done in order to increase the population, thus compensating for a series of factors such as the nomadic wandering, the low chance of intermarriage with the outside of the tribes, the low age of natural death per capita due to the poor living environment, and the sharp decline in the population caused by the war.
In the grassland, population is strength, cattle, sheep, war horses and everything are floating clouds, and if you don't have it, you can go to other tribes to grab it.
Won the club tender model, and lost to the **......
Achar secretly thought, when will I be able to live that kind of life, I also want to marry a Central Plains woman, I ......
Of course, Lu Jia saw the envy and unwillingness in Achar's tone.
I also learned a lot of useful information through Achar's words.
As for whether the scouts of the Han Kingdom had already known about this information, it didn't matter.
He only does what he should do, and what he can do, whether it is useful or not, he will consider it later.
It's not easy to go out, so naturally you can't go straight.
I chatted with Achar for a while, and it was all light-hearted and pleasant topics.
For example, what time to eat, what time to sleep, what season to go where to graze, what to do if you get lost on the grassland, how to set up camps, how to ensure that horses, cattle and sheep do not run around, and so on.
Sui He, who was still negative, felt that something was wrong the more he listened.
Calm down and carefully reflect on what Lu Jia said and did before.
How do you think it's a cliché?
The Achar family had fifty or sixty horses, cattle and sheep, but the men, women, and children combined were only six or seven people.
And Achar said that there were four or five thousand people in their tribe, and a large part of their family was the cattle, sheep and horses of the tribe.
Because his family is a small herding expert, the number of cattle and sheep he receives is higher.
Then, excluding the tribal leader and the soldiers around him, for the time being, he is counted as 4,000 people, which means that there are at least six or seven hundred households in their tribe like the Achar family.
If you calculate again, their tribe alone has more than 30,000 horses, and when converted, each person has seven horses, and the number of cattle and sheep is even higher, I am afraid that it will be millions.
But the consumption is also quite large, and Achar said that their family can eat a sheep for two days, and half of it goes into his eldest brother's belly.
That is to say, a family of five or six people consumes more than 100 or nearly 200 sheep a year.
Then their tribe will have to consume more than one million sheep a year, and this is still non-wartime, and the consumption will be even greater in wartime.
And with these data, as long as you pay a little attention, you can deduce the number of war horses, cattle and sheep in the entire Yueshi, and through these daily consumption, you can deduce some situations during the war of the Huns.
Although it may seem insignificant, when it comes to the battlefield, these are important reference factors that can make the decision of the commander.
Thinking of this, Sui He suddenly felt a little remorseful, and secretly scolded himself for being so blind?
almost ruined Lu Jia's big event, although I don't know what the result is, but if this information can be brought back, this is the capital of their meritorious service.
"Lu Envoy, I ......"
Looking at Sui He's expression, Lu Jia's heart couldn't help but tighten, and he hurriedly glanced at him, and continued to say in a stern tone: "Don't talk, shut up, before returning to Luoyang, the envoy didn't want to deal with you, and he didn't have a look at ...... at all."
