Chapter 108: Don't Go, Mess With Me (Part I)
Upon learning of Liu Ji's arrival, Da Tai Jihu and Ba Ri went out of the city ten miles to greet each other, showing great enthusiasm.
After some polite greetings, Hohe Ba Ri respectfully invited Liu Wei to sit in the limousine with him and entered Molin City.
It is impossible for thousands of people and horses to enter Molin City, Li Xun wanted to see the scenery in the city, so he asked Mao Anfu to lead people to garrison outside the city, and he led a hundred relatives to enter Molin City with Liu Wei.
Jiang Daxiong looked around: "Boss, it's very lively here!" ”
Li Xun nodded, his eyes scanned the surroundings, the streets were wide, neat and flat, the storefronts were numerous, the crowd was surging, and the merchants were endless, I didn't expect that the grassland thousands of miles away from the Great Jin Dynasty could have such a lively scene, and there was no difference between those cities in the Central Plains, if it weren't for the fact that the people around him were dressed differently from the Han people in the Central Plains, Li Xun would probably have the illusion that he was not in the grassland thousands of miles away, but still in the Central Plains Han land.
The resources of the grassland are very scarce, over the years, although it is quite harmonious with the Great Jin, there are few wars, but the two sides still have irreconcilable contradictions, they are guarding each other, the grain and iron of the Great Jin do not enter the Hu people, and the high-quality war horses of the Hu people do not enter the Central Plains, because both sides understand that the peace is only temporary, the Great Jin and the Mo Meng Hu people will eventually have a war, if the Mo Meng wins, invade the Central Plains, wealth and slaves are free to take away, if defeated, then continue to return to the grassland, lick the blood and cultivate, waiting for the next rise, over and over again, for more than a thousand years, It has always been the case, the Momeng grassland is too vast, legend has it, through the end of the grassland, is a more vast land, where there is a powerful empire that is not far behind the Great Jin, so if the Momeng Hu people have the intention to avoid war, the Central Plains Dynasty has no way but to defeat again and again, but can not be completely wiped out.
Li Xun woke up from his contemplation and walked through the lively commercial street, and the surroundings suddenly fell silent, and tents appeared all around, like houses.
Li Xun was quite surprised and novel.
Li Xun and the others were arranged to stay, they had to rest here at least for one night, when to leave for Erke City, there was a notice from Liu Ji, and Liu Ji was welcomed into the Dataiji Mansion by Huhe Ba Ri, and personally set up a banquet to entertain him, Dajin and the Hu people have a good relationship now, and Liu Ji's safety is no problem, so he did not let Li Xun follow him.
Li Xun also has Hu officials to entertain here, I have to say that most of the Hu people, the personality is quite bold and broad, very hospitable, everyone drank wine, ate meat, Li Xun to a Hu official named Ahman next to him, asked some ordinary things about the Hu people.
Ahman smiled and nodded.
With the Momeng Hu tribe split into two, several times by the Jin Dynasty defeated, Tianxiong Khan Arislan knew that although the Jin Dynasty had declined, but still not his own can be bullied at will, unless the Momeng Hu tribe is unified again, with its full strength, or there is a possibility of destroying the Jin Dynasty, otherwise a single Mobei Hu tribe, weak strength, challenging the Jin Dynasty, will only be self-deception and humiliation, so Tianxiong Khan Arislan retreated, and the Jin Dynasty reconciled, peace of mind to develop themselves.
Although Momeng has a poor living environment and lack of resources, it also has good things, leather and war horses, which cannot be sold to the countries of the Western Regions and even the Dashi Empire, but the road is far away and very troublesome, but with the intensification of the domestic war situation in the Dashi Empire, in recent years, the merchants of the Dashi Empire and the Western Regions have begun to come to Momeng thousands of miles away, buying a large number of war horses and leather armor for the needs of the war, so in recent years, although the Jin Dynasty has completely blocked the trade between the Hu people and the interior of the Central Plains, But from other places, the Momenghu tribe can still exchange war horse leather armor for the materials they need, and they are also comfortable and comfortable.
These are ordinary things, and Ahman has nothing to hide, so he told Li Xun in detail.
Li Xun nodded, had some understanding, toasted Ahman with a glass of wine, and asked with a smile: "Brother Ahman, I saw many tents in the city, what are they for??" ”
Li Xun's personality is quite rough and unrestrained, and there are some similarities with the deserted men, Ahman has a good impression of him, and replied with a smile: "Da Tai Ji over the years, modeled on the Central Plains Han land, built a city to live, in order to gather people's strength, liberate Han slaves, and promote people of insight as officials, this Molin City lives more than 100,000 people, of which half of the Han people are Mongolian and half of them, and the Han people like to build houses to live, and our Hu and Mongolian people can't change their traditional habits for a while, and still live in tents, those tents you see in the city, In fact, it is the residence of the Mongolian people in Molin City, and it is a reason to build a house with the Han people. ”
I see, Li Xun smiled and nodded, it didn't look like anything, but his heart was very shocked, for thousands of years, the Momenghu and the Central Plains Dynasty have always been accompanied by compromise and war, if the Central Plains Dynasty is prosperous, the Momenghu people dare not make any moves, once they enter the decline, they will go south in a big way, invade, in the long river of history, the Momenghu people have invaded the Central Plains several times, looted and slaughtered, and briefly occupied a dominant position, these several successful invasions, have a very similar commonality, After all, the Han people know the minds of the Han people, and they also know very well about the interior of the Central Plains, with their help, the Momenghu people are no longer simple, their brains are no longer straight, but there are turns, wisdom, and strong combat power, I have to say that the Momenghu people will be an extremely frightening existence, but also the fierce rival and nightmare of the Central Plains Dynasty.
Li Xun asked: "It is said that Tianxiong Khan divided the entire Mobei into six regions and handed them over to his six sons to manage. ”
Ahaman raised his head slightly, and said arrogantly: "My lord Datai Jihu and Ba Ri are the eagles of my desert grassland, with infinite wisdom, the smallest territory, the least population, but the strongest strength, in the entire Mobei, except for Tianxiong Khan, no one can compare with him." ”
Li Xun smiled, perfunctorily praised a few words of Huhe Bari, and then picked up the cup and drank the wine, but the whole person was silent.
After eating, Ahman said goodbye and left, and told Li Xun that he had no restrictions in Morin City and could go wherever he wanted.
Sending Ahman out of the gate, Li Xun was about to turn back, but a voice suddenly came from behind him.
"General, can you have a meal?"
Li Xun looked, but saw a middle-aged man with dirt all over his body, unkempt and dirty, and extremely depressed, who was limping forward and begging for food.
"Are you Han?"
The middle-aged man nodded: "The villain Sima Tu, born in Langzhou, was taken captive to Momeng twenty years ago. ”
Li Xun nodded and said, "The food in the house hasn't been cleaned up yet, you can come in and eat!" ”
Sima Tu had a look of surprise on his face, looked at Li Xun, with a look of vigilance in his eyes, and arched his hand: "The villain just wants to have a full mouth, and there is nothing else to think about." ”
Seeing the vigilance in Sima Tu's eyes, Li Xun rolled his eyes and laughed angrily: "Come in if you want to eat, you are the one who asks for food, do you want General Ben to personally bring out the food and deliver it to you?" ”
With that, Li Xun turned around and left with a snort.
Sima Tu's face was flushed, thinking about it, he is a person who asks for food, what is there to be planned by others? Shaking his head with a wry smile, Sima Tu limped into the mansion.
