Chapter 966: The Wine Under the Yin Mountain
Even if it cannot be said that geographical location is everything, geographical location is extremely important for a person, a people, and a country.
The Yinshan Mountain Range, which stands in the north of the Hetao, stretches from east to west, is shaped like a barrier, which is not only an important natural geographical dividing line, a natural dividing line in the economic form of agriculture and animal husbandry, but also a manifestation of the strength of the Xiongnu in history.
Under the Yin Mountain, outside the big tent of Furo.
Yu Furo looked at the jar of wine on the whole baggage cart in front of the big tent, and showed an inexplicable smile.
People can't be idle, as soon as they are idle, they will ponder, and if they ponder, something will often come out, so throughout the ages, all those in power, basically an important indicator is the unemployment rate......
Those who work hard and are constantly busy in warm clothes for three full meals a day, who are only paid for their work to support the needs of the family, and who do not work for a day without food have always been the favorite of all the ruling class. It is natural for people like this to be cared for and taken care of again and again to ensure that such people can continue to be stable for a long time, so as to maintain the stability and healthy development of the whole society.
It's a pity that there are a handful of people who like to find something to do if they have nothing to do......
"Hahaha, I'm so excited today!" Zhang Ji laughed as he reached a hundred steps away, flew off his horse, and then beckoned Yu Fuluo's guards to step forward, "I heard that Shan Yu has good wine here, it's a coincidence!" I just hunted a deer, and I just used it for wine! ”
Yu Fuluo also laughed, greeted Zhang Ji, and said, "Not bad, not bad!" Come! Please! ”
Yu Fuluo's operation to collect the remaining Xianbei in the entire Yinshan area was basically over, except for some Xianbei people who fled from the foot of the mountain west of Yinshan Mountain to the Western Regions, most of the remaining Yinshan Xianbei were basically wiped out.
Basically, according to the previous agreement with Fei Qian, some of the livestock and population were sent to Pingyang, and some were left behind as trophies for Yufro. Therefore, at this time period, both Yu Fu Luo and Yu Fu Luo's people are in a very good mood.
With more cattle and sheep, and plundering Xianbei women, by the beginning of this winter and next year, a large number of Xiongnu cubs will be born, which means that the number of clansmen will increase steadily......
It's just that compared with the growth rate of the Han people in the area of Yinshan in the north, the little growth of the Yufuluo people is not enough.
During this period of time, here in Yinshan, in addition to some management craftsmen and ordinary farmers who originally migrated from Pingyang, there were also a large number of displaced people from Guanzhong, and even some people who came from Montenegro through Luliang Mountain.
The Yinshan area is large enough, and it happens to be the corner area of the big river, the water flow is gentle, the land is fertile, these original farmers, as long as they are willing to exert their efforts, basically do not need to deliberately choose, most of the area is changed into fertile land suitable for farming.
Of course, even such a population influx was still not enough to fill the entire Yinshan area, so basically, Yu Fuluo and other Hu people grazed cattle on the west side of Yinshan Mountain, while the Han people led by Xu Huang, Ma Yan, and Zhang Ji cultivated around the Manyi Valley.
Because the land is quite sufficient, there is no direct conflict of interest between them, and there is even a little complementarity and cooperation at some times, so at this stage, the relationship between the Southern Xiongnu and the Han people under the command of Yu Fu Luo in this part of Yinshan is not bad.
Zhang Ji and Ma Yue took turns to take the soldiers to the grassland to train the soldiers, do you want to train the cavalry, one is to train the soldiers, the other is also to train the horses, even if the horse in the stable can run, no matter how strong it is, it may not be able to become a good war horse.
During this time, it was Zhang Ji's turn.
Yu Fuluo stretched out his hands to welcome Zhang Ji, and when Zhang Ji arrived close, when the two of them put their arms and prepared to enter the big tent together, Yu Fuluo said casually: "Aha, Captain Zhang, by the way, someone gave me some good wine two days ago, saying that it was made from mountain springs and several kinds of chestnut wheat...... This king also doesn't understand, but I think it's amazing, and I heard that Zhang Xiaowei also understands wine, so I also help this king invite to taste and ......"
Yu Fuluo seemed to be talking casually, Zhang Ji didn't care at first, and after opening his mouth to answer casually, he realized something, and turned his head to look carefully at the baggage truck parked on the side of the big tent.
The baggage cart is old, the wood is covered with traces left by the wind and rain, so that the original color is not clear, there are one or two places where the iron nails are loose or broken, resulting in the planks are a little crooked, no matter how you look at it, it is an extremely ordinary and old baggage car, if it is not specifically mentioned by Yu Fuluo, no matter who will not take a special look.
The baggage cart was full of wine jars, not to mention more than ten or twenty jars, and there were circles of hemp rope wrapped around the outside of the wine jars, and there were some hay or something between them, but there were no marks written on the wine jars......
Before Zhang Ji could take a closer look, Yu Fuluo had already asked the guards to open the curtain of the big tent, and said with a smile: "Captain Zhang...... Captain Zhang, please! ”
"Oh...... Oh, good, good ......" Zhang Ji came back to his senses, looked at Yu Fuluo, whose smile did not change, and was slightly stunned for a moment before he reacted, nodded and entered the big tent with Yu Fuluo......
******************
“…… That's about the way it is......"
Zhang Ji was suspicious, so he didn't drink much wine on Yu Fuluo's side, so he rushed back to Manyi Valley with his subordinates, saw Xu Huang, and told him about it.
Xu Huang is now mainly responsible for the foot soldiers of Yinshan Mountain, as well as the construction of the permanent fortress in Manyi Valley. Compared with Ma Yue and Zhang Ji, who served as peripheral guards and trained cavalry, Xu Huang's work was more tedious and meticulous, and it was not simple.
A permanent fortress requires a variety of materials, just wood has large and small square wood, columns, pointed wood, boards, wedges, rafters and so on, plus other materials, as well as the inventory and in-transit of these materials, the speed of use, etc., has become Xu Huang's daily measurement and statistical data.
Although the craftsmen who are specifically responsible for the affairs do not need Xu Huang's guidance and arrangement in operation, Xu Huang also needs to send people to conduct inspections and spot checks, and pay attention to each link, and must ensure that they can operate smoothly at all times, so that there will be no people waiting for materials, or materials and other people.
In the current Han Dynasty, there is no such thing as a project schedule, and there is no interrelated table on the computer to assist in statistics, all the big and small things are just recorded on the wooden slip or bamboo slip like a running account, and Xu Huang, as the commander, must build the entire operation mode in his heart, and form a complete set of implementation plans. Only then can there be a smooth arrangement of craftsmen and slaves to do a good job of construction.
Therefore, Xu Huang has lost a lot of weight these days.
"......" Xu Huang frowned, and a thin Sichuan character formed between his eyebrows.
Xu Huang doesn't think that Yu Fuluo is a person who has nothing to do, nor is he a guy who has no purpose, so the main meaning of deliberately asking Zhang Ji to drink wine must not be simply to drink two bowls of wine......
After pondering for a while, Xu Huang said, "I don't know Captain Zhang, didn't you drink the wine again?" ”
Zhang Jiba smashed it, rolled his eyes upward, recalled for a moment, and then said with some hesitation: "Drink is drunk, but ...... As for the ...... there, This one...... I can't say ......."
Xu Huang nodded and said, "Then it shouldn't be Guanzhong or Kansai's wine...... The good wine of these two places, Captain Zhang should have drunk both, right? ”
Zhang Ji nodded, shook his head again, and said: "I have drunk a lot, but if you want to say that you have drunk all of them, you don't dare to pack a ticket......
"Old baggage trucks...... Mountain spring, several kinds of chestnut wheat ......" Xu Huang touched his little beard and said in a deep voice, "Yu Fuluo's behavior is to tell us that someone has gone to look for him, as for who and what things, Yu Fuluo doesn't want to say, or thinks it's not easy to say...... Who will send it? What do you want to do when you give wine to Yufro? ”
The material convoys to and from Pingyang, or Yong'an, and even Xihe and other places, there will be every three or five times, and there will be one more or one less of these convoys, or where to turn around on the way or something, for the current era without surveillance equipment, it is impossible to trace and check......
Zhang Ji scratched his scalp and was speechless.
At this moment, Ma Yue came in from outside, and before anyone arrived, he smiled and said loudly: "Haha...... The prince beheaded the Guo thief in Chiyang, and later conquered Chang'an, and had to be crowned the general of the west! ”
Xu Huang and Zhang Ji in the hall stood up almost at the same time as a breath, and greeted them, only to see Ma Yue holding a newly arrived newspaper in his hand, striding towards him.
"Hurry! Hurry! Ma Yue smiled, obviously proud of Fei Qian's achievements in this trip, "The Xiliang thief will die soon...... Uh, Captain Zhang...... A certain ......"
Ma Yueguang was happy, and only reacted after he finished speaking, Zhang Ji is also from Xiliang.
Zhang Ji smiled bitterly, waved his hand and said, "Captain Ma doesn't need to be like this, alas...... Li Guo and others, a certain is also deeply ashamed and ......"
Seeing this, Xu Huang said: "Captain Zhang is now the guard of Yinshan, and he is credited to the community, and he is not careful...... The prince has to conquer the west, this is the grace of the Son of Heaven, and we are fortunate to do it! ”
General Zhengxi, the famous general of Zheng'er Bajing, ranks below the three dukes, is almost the same level as Jiuqing, and opens his own government, and his subordinate government belongs to Changshi and Sima, two people are engaged in Zhonglang, 29 people are Peng, and 31 people are under the imperial history, and they can directly lead the army with this number, and they can also appoint their own subordinates, school captains, etc.
In this way, people like Xu Huang and others can basically be promoted to a level, from the so-called local county captain, to a real lieutenant in the army, which means that they can not only have more command rights, but more importantly, they can expand the number of their direct personal guard troops......
The captain under a well-known general is more bullish than the average miscellaneous general, which is derived from this. Therefore, although Xu Huang and others may not have any intention of taking power, they can make their own power stronger, who doesn't like it?
Ma Yue laughed, indescribably happy. In fact, Ma Yue not only won the title of General of Zhengxi because of Fei Qian, but more importantly, this time Fei Qian's southern expedition to the pass, his father Ma Yan followed him, so since Fei Qian won the reward, then his father Ma Yan will naturally make some credit, so that there will be no embarrassing situation where his current rank is slightly higher than that of his father Ma Yan......
"Such a happy event, it should be a big deal!" Ma Yue suggested.
Xu Huang nodded, and then ordered the guards on the side to bring the wine, and the three of them each poured a bowl, and then raised it high, and after wishing Fei Qian, they drank it all.
Putting down the wine bowl, Xu Huang remembered what Zhang Ji said about the wine on Yu Fuluo's side, so he told Ma Yue again.
After hearing this, Ma Yue also felt a little headache, and said, "This guy doesn't say anything directly...... Why don't you send someone to ask, who sent it? ”
Xu Huang shook his head and said slowly: "Yu Fuluo is not a subordinate of the upper and lower levels, this matter is ...... Most of it is for the sake of the prince's face, so I will be informed, and as for the other ......"
Xu Huang did not say it completely, in fact, this time it can also be seen as Yu Fuluo's temptation, not a temptation of Fei Qian, but a temptation of the ability of Xu Huang and the other three, after all, there are Han and Hu people on this side of Yinshan, although they get along quite well now, but after all, there should be a high and low, or that side is dominant.
Of course, Fei Qian is here, naturally everything is fine, but the problem is that Fei Qian can't always be here, so he needs to show a little ability, otherwise he will be defeated by Fu Luo, and when there is really something, he will be more passive......
Xu Huang said this, and Ma Yue did not refute it.
During this period of time, Ma Yue and Zhang Ji both saw Xu Huang's dedication and efforts, and also understood why Fei Qian handed over this Yinshan base camp to Xu Huang to lead, because there are some things that Ma Yue and Zhang Ji really can't do......
"The two leaders are on guard outside, but what do you find anything unusual?" Xu Huang asked.
Xu Huang was mostly stationed near the camp to deal with affairs, so the patrols outside were generally Ma Yan and Zhang Ji.
Ma Yue shook his head from side to side and said, "Abnormal? Well...... Something suddenly remembered...... Some time ago, there were many fights in the camp outside the village, and they were all whipped on the spot...... For the rest, it doesn't seem like a big deal......"
"This ...... Does a fight count? Zhang Ji looked at Ma Yue and then at Xu Huang.
In Zhang Ji's concept, arguing with each other and fighting is simply not a thing at all, on Xiliang's side, ordinary people talk to each other and pull their necks, as for fighting, they are all men, they don't see the right eyes, they can't say one place, so they divide their fists into big and small, isn't this very normal, so Zhang Ji has never talked about this kind of thing.
Hearing Zhang Ji's words, Xu Huang couldn't help frowning again, and a haze suddenly flashed in his heart......
