In Zhennan Fort, Zhao Hao was stunned again.

He really didn't expect that the famous Taihua tribe and the houses where the clansmen lived would be so bad.

What is this?

The whole Zhennanbao is like a slum, there are stone houses, tree houses, and thatched houses, and most of them are extremely irregular, and it is difficult to find even a square one.

Of course, the houses here are much stronger than the tribes in the wild jungle, and maybe, the houses of the Xue Manbu are not so "good".

Primitive tribes, it is good to know that building houses with stone and earth.

Zhao Hao sighed for a while, in front, the home of General Li, the guard general of Zhennan Fort, had arrived.

This house looks okay, at least, the stone used to build the wall is obviously repaired, and the overall feeling is not the feeling of piling up the rocks, and there are neat wooden blocks around the house, which alone adds a lot of points.

At this time, the group was left with General Li, Ji Rushuang and a few guards leading the horses, and the others were either camped outside the city or went back to their respective homes, and the gifts should not be abrupt.

Therefore, as soon as he walked into the courtyard, Zhao Hao smiled and arched his hand: "This time I led my men through Guibao, there are many disturbances, and it is not a respect, and I hope General Li will not dislike it." ”

After speaking, he waved his hand directly and ordered his guards to present the "thin gift".

As for what Bo Li is, it is actually just a thousand catties of beef and mutton, ten sheepskins and a few cans of mare's milk wine.

This thing is indeed nothing in Zhao Hao's opinion, but it should be a relatively good gift for people in the Taihua Department.

Because he had already asked Ji Rushuang before he came, in Taihuabu, meat, leather goods and wine are relatively precious, and ordinary people can't afford to consume them.

Sure enough, when General Li saw the big basket put up by the guards, he was immediately excited.

He rubbed his hands vigorously to hide his excitement, and then pretended to be polite and said, "Oh, such a generous gift, how embarrassed am I to accept it!" ”

Of course, this is just a superficial article, in fact, his eyeballs have already penetrated into those baskets and cannot get out.

Seeing this, Zhao Hao couldn't help but smile slightly: "These are all produced by our Haotian Department, it's nothing, it's good that General Li doesn't dislike it." ”

It's actually not interesting to push around, General Li is a straightforward person, and after being polite, he stopped pretending.

He arched his hand excitedly, thanked him, and then opened his voice and shouted into the room: "Dead mother, little cubs, hurry up, come out and move things in." ”

With a "bang", four people, large and small, immediately ran out of the house.

A middle-aged woman should be General Li's woman, and the three teenage boys and girls should be General Li's children.

This guy can really give birth!

General Li didn't care about his women and children working there, so he directly raised his hand and said politely: "Miss, the big leader of Haotian, please inside, please inside." ” :（/

Seeing this, Zhao Hao waved his hand slightly, motioned for a few guards to go back first, and then followed General Li and Ji Rushuang into the house with great interest.

This General Li's home is even better than he imagined, at least not the whole family is in one room, eating, drinking and Lazar are all in one place.

Inside, it is still separated by a stone wall, and although there is no door in the doorway, it looks much stronger than the houses in the wild tribe.

Moreover, as soon as I entered the room, there was a square wooden table and a few small benches in the middle of the lobby.

Yes, really good.

Zhao Hao looked at it for a moment, and then couldn't help but nod slightly.

After General Li politely beckoned them to sit down, he said a little impatiently: "Miss, the great leader of Haotian, it's almost night, you must be hungry after a day's journey, please wait a while, I'll go and ask my mother-in-law to cook." ”

Dine?

When Ji Rushuang heard this, she couldn't help but look at Zhao Hao with embarrassment.

The food in Taihua is far worse than that of Haotianbu, can Zhao Hao eat it?

Unexpectedly, Zhao Hao sat there with great interest, and he didn't mean to get up at all.

This cooking is definitely not something that can be done all at once, and then, it seems that you can only wait while chatting.

Originally, Zhao Hao thought that tea would be served, but unfortunately, it seems that he has not found such a thing as tea in these years, and he has no habit of drinking tea, and he does not even have the habit of serving boiled water.

However, it doesn't matter, the reason why Zhao Hao is willing to sit down and wait is not to drink tea.

He was much more interested in the defense of this town Nanpu than tea, after all, he was preparing to join the Taihua Department this time, and naturally he didn't want the Nanban tribes to easily attack the hinterland of Nanhua.

Why is the defense of Zhennan Fort so stretched?

In other words, why does Nanhua Elite look so messy?

Zhao Hao knocked on the side and tried for a while, and finally understood. m

It turned out that the Nanban tribes basically did not have the habit of attacking the Taihua Division, after all, the population of the Taihua Department was so large that it was terrifying, and the masters of the Taihua Department were even more terrifying.

And there are not many benefits that can make people desperate in these years, and what can make a tribe desperate is roughly food.

In the vast territory of the Southern Barbarians, food is not very scarce, and the small tribes in the wild jungle may not be able to eat enough because of their strength, and they may starve to death, but such a situation basically does not exist for a large tribe like Xue Manbu.

Of course, it is not excluded that a tribe is strong enough to want to dominate the world, but no tribe in Nanban is strong enough to have the confidence to overthrow the Taihua Division, so it is difficult to fight this battle.

General Li has been stationed here for many years, and he has never fought at all, and after a long time, he has also been a little slack.

Moreover, the Nanhua elders generally only provide food, and there is no food, so in order to improve their lives, everyone either grows vegetables or hunts, and only about 200 people are usually left in Zhennanbao to take turns to garrison.

This is the reason why General Li was slow to react and did not organize people to go to the river for half a day.

Also, Zhao Hao is also very interested in General Li's surname, the surname Ji of the Taihua Department was given by the gods, how did this surname Li come about?

The reason is actually very simple, it is precisely because the leadership of the Taihua Department has the surname Ji that the entire Taihua Department has gradually had the custom of naming according to the surname, and this surname Li is said to have originated in a place densely covered with plum forests.

They chatted for a long time, and the meal was finally served.

A border general like General Li is naturally not as generous as a big tribal leader like Zhao Hao, and the dishes served are even much worse than what Zhao Hao usually eats.

If Zhao Hao couldn't eat a bite, it would be embarrassing.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Hao was holding a bowl, constantly eating, constantly picking vegetables, eating with relish, and full of praise!

I don't know how long I haven't eaten the fragrant rice.

When he came to Taihuabu this time, what he wanted to eat most was rice.

There are also green vegetables, I don't know how many years I haven't eaten them, and Haotianbu doesn't have the habit of growing green vegetables.

This meal, Zhao Hao ate it deliciously, if he didn't take care of face, he really wanted to gobble it up and sweep it away!
