"It's early! That's all about the older generation, and the villain hasn't seen it before. When the villain was a child, he heard Ah Pi say that he was a craftsman who was sent by the Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty to mine copper, and the villain's Chinese dialect was passed down from Ah Pi at that time. I remember when I was a child, there were still many old people in the village who spoke Chinese. ”

"The Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty sent someone to mine copper?"

When Feng Yong heard this, he almost blurted out that it was impossible.

This time, he came out to find a copper mine, so he had already made preparations, and judging from the official archives that could be found, there was no official record in this regard.

Where there is a dumb spring, there will definitely be a Tong mine, so he must take someone to the dumb spring to have a look.

Copper is in short supply in China.

Scarce for thousands of years.

Even in his later life, other countries used brass to make bullet casings, but China was stainless steel, which was caused by the extreme lack of brass.

I didn't expect to hear that someone had mined copper ore here.

"Then why didn't you mine it later?"

Feng Yong asked.

Nagu shook his head, thought for a moment, and then said, "I heard Appi mention it, saying that it was messy outside, and the people above only told them to wait here. I didn't expect to wait for decades, but I didn't wait for anyone again. ”

Hearing this, Feng Yong groaned for a moment.

A few decades ago, the person in charge of Yizhou was either Liu Yan or his predecessor Xu Jian.

He was greedy by nature and gathered in Yizhou.

Liu Yan entered Yizhou in order to divide one side.

In addition, at that time, the Shuzhong clan privately occupied the mountains, and the wind was extremely strong.

Whoever mined copper in private was possible, so naturally it would not be recorded in the archives of the government - but it was certainly not sent by the Emperor of the Han Dynasty.

"Do you know where the copper ore was mined back then?"

"I've heard Api say it, but Xiao Lao hasn't seen it with his own eyes, it's in the mountains over there."

Nagu pointed to the southeast.

"Good. I want to go there tomorrow, and I ask the elders to show me the way. ”

"Your Excellency has an order, how dare you disobey?"

Naigu glanced at Ah Mei who was standing beside Feng Yong again, and his expression was about to speak.

After Feng Yong got the news, he was in a good mood, and when he saw the old man's appearance, he asked with a smile, "Does the old man have any questions?" ”

"My lord, how many things do you want to collect this time?"

The old man hesitated for a moment, and finally took the initiative to ask.

Feng Yong was stunned, "What does the old man mean by this?" ”

"My lord, in the past few years, King Yongda has sent people over every year to collect a lot of things, everyone's life is really not good, can you ...... this time Can you keep a little more rations? ”

Nagu said in a slurding voice.

"Yonghong?"

As soon as Feng Yong heard this, his face sank, "Didn't anyone inform the old man that this place has returned to the management of the Great Han?" ”

The old man saw that Feng Yong's face was wrong, and he panicked.

"My lord, someone came over a few months ago to talk about this, let us continue to pay taxes to the emperor of the Han Dynasty."

"I didn't know that I didn't wait long, but I waited for other people and horses, saying that we were asking us to hand over grain and horses to King Meng, and we also took a lot of women from the village captive."

Looking at the old man's cowering appearance, thinking of the comings and goings of the rebels and officers and soldiers in the past few months, Feng Yong sighed in his heart and said, "Don't worry, old man, I will not accept anything this time." ”

"Don't take anything?"

Nagu asked, his eyes widening in disbelief.

Feng Yong nodded, "Don't accept anything." ”

got Feng Yong's affirmative answer, but Naigu couldn't believe it, only to see him laugh and say, "Master Wang is here, how dare you not eat?" ”

Looking at the humble smile on the face of the old man in front of him, Feng Yong only felt a little blocked in his heart.

Grudgingly, "The old man doesn't have to be like this. I already said when I first came, I was ordered by the prime minister of the Han Dynasty to come to comfort the people, if I received something, wouldn't it become a disturbance to the people? The prime minister won't let me go then, so you just have to rest assured. ”

As he spoke, he looked at the flat ground below and took a deep breath, "I came this time, not only not to collect things, but also to teach you how to collect more food." ”

Hearing this, Nagu's body began to tremble, and he knelt down, crying, "How dare you bother Lord Lao to worry about these farmlands? The adults just sit down, and the farming work of this aunt will be handed over to the villain. ”

"The villain will urge them to work hard."

Feng Yong sighed again and helped Naigu up, "Old man, you don't understand my method of collecting more grain, it's not the same as the previous farming. ”

"Yes, yes, yes. Whatever the adults say, that's what it is. ”

Naigu wiped the corners of his eyes, "The adult is really benevolent, and the prime minister of the Han Dynasty is really our great ah!" ”

Feng Yong: ......

The main credit is mine, it's me!

In the tent of the Southern Expeditionary Army, Naigu's Ah Da Zhuge Liang was standing in front of the sand table and contemplating, and there was a drawing of cloth silk on the table next to the sand table, which was the "Plain Barbarian Palm Map" presented by Lu Kai.

From time to time, he picked up the "Plain Barbarian Finger Map" and looked at it for a while, checking the terrain against the sand table.

"Prime Minister, the messenger who went to Juti has returned."

At this moment, I saw Yang Yi walk in with a letter and report it.

"Juti? The boy's letter? ”

Zhuge Liang was stunned for a moment, although he wrote to ask Feng Yong's opinion, but what he really meant was that the assessment was more than asking.

He didn't expect that eighteen-year-old boy to be able to say anything, but if he was guided to think more about national affairs, it would be considered to have achieved his goal.

"Exactly."

"Show me it."

Zhuge Liang stretched out his hand to take it, and found that it was sealed with fire paint, and couldn't help laughing, "It's quite like it." Those who don't know think it's a secret matter. ”

Yang Yi's eyes flashed, and he also smiled, "Then Feng Mingwen is young, and now that he is inquired by Prime Minister, his behavior is a little unprepared, of course." ”

When Zhuge Liang heard this, he glanced at Yang Yi intentionally or unintentionally, and he didn't speak, but just took out the letter paper and looked at it.

He thought there was some long story in this, but what he didn't expect was that he was a little surprised.

I saw that only two lines of words were written on the letterhead: Wuwang Mengjinhui princes, Huan Gong Zhongyuan Kuang Tianxia.

Zhuge Liang frowned, thought for a while, then smiled and said, "Wonderful!" ”

Then he laughed again, "Okay! ”

The abnormal behavior of the prime minister of the Han Dynasty made Yang Yi confused.

Zhuge Liang put away the letter, walked back and forth a few times with his hands behind his back, his face was happy, and he said again and again, "This son is really unexpected every time, okay!" ”

Finally, he looked at Yang Yi, as if he had thought of something, showed a thoughtful gaze, and asked, "Wei Gong, you said that after we pacified Nanzhong this time, how should we govern Nanzhong?" ”

When Yang Yi heard this, she suddenly perked up, and she understood a little in her heart, it seems that Feng Mingwen's letter may also have something to do with it?

Yi thought that the prime minister had pacified Nanzhong this time, and those Yi Wangbarians were already frightened, and this was the best time to govern Nanzhong. When he is bold and does not dare to rebel again, he can put soldiers and keep officials. ”

"In just ten years, Nanzhong will become the official state and county of the Han Dynasty, rather than the current place of bondage."

The so-called "restraint" means that on the one hand, it is necessary to "bond" and use military means and political pressure to control it; On the other hand, the "縻" is used to give comfort to economic and material benefits.

However, this is to control Nanzhong by controlling the local Yiwang Barbarian, and naturally there is no direct governance by the imperial court.

When the imperial court is in strong control, it is good to say that as long as you don't take care of it a little, the land of bondage will definitely rebel.

And the place of restraint is also a test of the balance ability of the imperial court, a little careless, by the family domination, that is, to raise a white-eyed wolf.

Zhuge Liang listened to Yang Yi's words, nodded, and glanced at him again, but he didn't speak.

At the same time, I thought in my heart, if it was in the peaceful period of the world, this statement would naturally be reasonable, but unfortunately, now it is a troubled time, and the Han thieves will not be destroyed, where will the time and money come from to govern Nanzhong?

Yang Wei is wise, but his temperament is too narrow, but his vision is not as good as that Feng Mingwen, it's a pity!

After thinking about this, Zhuge Liang spoke, "Duke Wei, loosen the ties of Meng Shu and his sect, place them in the tent, and then let people send some food over." ”

Yang Yi waited for a long time, but she didn't hear Zhuge Liang's praise, and she didn't even comment, so she couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

Hearing this, he couldn't help but speak again, "Prime Minister, now in the two counties of Yongchang in Yizhou, the king of Yi has surrendered, but only that Meng Shu is really a shameless person, so why should he be so lenient to him?" ”

Zhuge Liang shook his head and said with a smile, "Meng Shu is the head of the barbarians in Yizhou County, if he is killed directly, it will inevitably make the handsome people of the newly suited Yiwang barbarians fluctuate." ”

"Now he is already a man who cries to the corner, if you don't kill him, it will be more uncomfortable than killing him, you just do what I say."

Yang Yi had no choice but to come out and do what Zhuge Liang ordered.

Meng Shu and the sect party ate some food in the other tent, only to see Yang Yi walk into the tent.

When Meng Shu saw Yang Yi, he consciously stood up and prepared to follow him to see Zhuge Liang.

Unexpectedly, Yang Yi glanced up and down at Meng Shu, with a sneer in her eyes.

Meng Huo's face suddenly swelled purple.

He originally thought that after seeing Zhuge Liang this time, he decided to surrender with his clan, but he didn't think that before he saw the prime minister of the Han Dynasty, he was ridiculed by the person in front of him.

At the moment, I gritted my teeth with hatred and gurgled with shame.

But Yang Yi just looked at him like this and didn't speak.

"Hmph, you Han official, if you have something to say, you can kill if you want to, why do you need to humiliate people like this?"

Meng Shu didn't have the face to speak, but Mrs. Zhu Rong, who was captured together, couldn't help but shoot the case and shouted loudly.

She has her own clan, the clan respects women, and her status is not lower than Meng Huo on weekdays, but now when she sees Yang Yi like this, how can she bear it?

"The prime minister was ashamed and didn't want to see the public. I was specially ordered to let my husband go back, and then recruit people to decide the winner. You can go as soon as possible. ”

Yang Yi turned to look at Mrs. Zhurong at this time, pursed her lips secretly, and said with disdain in her heart, a barbarian girl is a barbarian girl, and this kind of behavior is simply extremely immoral.

Meng Huo was already extremely ashamed, and when he heard this at this time, where would he still have the face to stay here? I saw him squeeze out a word from between his teeth: "Good! ”

As he spoke, he took the lead out of the tent.
