When the night passed, and the morning came, there was no rooster crowing "oh oh", because there were no chickens in the camp at all, but there were many pigs, and some of the plundered cattle, horses, and sheep were plundered, but there were not many of them. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

"Your Majesty, can you take me with you when you go to see the people today?" Lu Tai's face was looking forward to it: "The king often says that a soldier can't train his courage without fighting......"

In fact, the matter of going to see Xu Ming had been delayed for several days, and it was not until the threat of the wandering Xiongnu Tiefu Department was lifted that Liu Yan was able to leave the territory.

They will soon have to deal with the threat of a coalition of troops from the Clan. Isn't the nearby cabinet county a threat? Liu Yan must first deal with the nearby cabinet county, and after removing this threat, he can concentrate on dealing with the incoming Qian.

In the past few days, Liu Yan has not had any soldiers in the production system, and he has recruited 1,500 people from the Jin people who have been taken in, but in addition to the more than 400 people who have been trained for more than half a year, the remaining 1,100 people can only be said to be a number.

Considering that the two officers who were rare should be allowed to see the world more, and it was also to show their strength to make the family surnamed Xu jealous, Liu Yan agreed to the request of the two to bring troops. In fact, he planned to bring as many people as possible, and it was good to be strong.

Since the death of Shi Le, Shi Hu has been known for his brutality since he succeeded to the throne, and the previous Shi Le also knew that he should win over some special talents of the Qiang people, Di people, Zahu and Jin people in China, but Shi Hu, who succeeded to the throne, did not pay attention to it at all.

Xu Ming is a Di person, and his identity as a Di person was very useful in the past, especially in communicating with various ethnic groups. As for bullying the Jin people? The Hu people in the Central Plains and the Northland, who does not oppress the Jin people, the difference is that they are too brutal and relatively mild.

Seriously speaking, although the Di people who are more sinicized also have the phenomenon of bullying the Jin people, they are much more moderate than other races, and they have recently changed their strategies, focusing on oppression, and rarely killing at every turn.

The change in the strategy of the Di people is related to the political turmoil of the Zhao State (Later Zhao), a large number of Jin people are difficult to escape again, and the social chaos is nothing, after all, when will the Central Plains not be chaotic? What's worse is that with the large number of Jin people fleeing, there is a shortage of labor everywhere, and it is a little difficult for the Hu people to go to farming and producing.

"There is no green and yellow everywhere, and the people are looking for targets for plunder." Xu Ming seemed worried, and said to his nephew: "Er Rong is not a good person, and they don't know that the surname Liu will gather tens of thousands of people, and they want to clean us up under the guise of exterminating Liu Yan." I revealed the information to the surnamed Liu, which is nothing more than hoping that Liu Yan will do his best and lose with Er Rong. ”

Xu Zhen looked very young, dressed in leather armor, but he looked heroic. He nodded: "Uncle is wise, although the many tribes gathered by Errong have nearly five thousand people, they do not lead each other. Listening to my uncle, Liu Yan has an elite army with about three or four hundred people? In this way, even if those Jin people are useless, they can consume Er Rong's manpower to the greatest extent. ”

Xu Ming frowned, full of confusion: "It's strange and strange, my uncle and the surname Liu have been fighting for several months, at first I just couldn't find where the nest surnamed Liu was, and then he took his subordinates to fight against me ......", introduced Liu Yan's appearance of those subordinates who were not afraid of death, and said: "I haven't seen you for four months, and the surname Liu doesn't know where to collect nearly 30,000 slaves, and hundreds of elites have appeared out of thin air." ”

"Liu Yan is a Han (Xiongnu), after the Han State (former Zhao) was destroyed, most of the Han (Xiongnu) fled to Saibei, and there were some people left in the Central Plains, but most of them surrendered to the imperial court." Xu Zhen looked like he was literate, and he analyzed things in an orderly manner, and said: "I heard that the surname Liu in Saibei has risen again, Liu Yan shouldn't be their secret son buried in the Central Plains, right?" ”

Xu Ming actually thinks the same way, otherwise how can anyone go from weak to strong in a short period of time? There is no one behind it, so I can't say anything.

The Er Rong they said was the county guard of Changguang County, and "Er" was a big surname in the Qiang people. In fact, many Hu people, especially Zahu don't have surnames at all, and ordinary Hu people will not be high-end enough to have surnames, only some Hu people who have made a fortune will have such a high-level surname.

For example, Xu Ming's surname "Xu" character, they evolved from "Beilugan" after sinicization, and many other Hu people will also choose a Chinese surname after sinicization.

This time, there were not a few people who followed Xu Ming's uncle and nephew to meet Liu Yan, there were 500 people.

Among the 500 people, 100 are Di people, and they are also soldiers of the Di tribe surnamed Xu, and there are 150 Zahu and 250 Jin people.

In such a year, only the clan soldiers are the most trusted weapons, and they are also the best treated troops, not to mention that each of the 100 clan soldiers of Xu Ming is riding a horse, at least everyone has a weapon in their hands. Not to mention whether those weapons are rusty or not, but at least there are weapons!

The other Zahu and Jin people are more likely to be armed peasants than soldiers, and they rarely have metal weapons, and they are considered to be guys with a wooden stick or something.

The clan soldiers, also known as the tribal forces, are generally the most elite troops of each tribe and tribe, and are the foundation of each tribe or tribe. In addition to the tribal armament, there are servant armies and slave armies. The Servant Army is generally selected from a variety of mustaches, and most of them are temporary recruits. The slave army was mostly composed of Jin people, and there were a small number of Hu prisoners who had committed crimes.

When the uncle and nephew of the Xu family approached the destination with people, the sentinel sent back to tell them that Liu Yan had already led people to wait there.

"How much? Nearly 1,500 people??? Xu Ming heard a burst of wonder: "This ......"

Xu Zhen smiled heartily: "Uncle, Liu Yan is showing his strength, and he is worried that we will join forces with Er Rong to attack him." ”

Xu Ming couldn't help nodding: "It makes sense, it should be that he is afraid of us, not that we are afraid of him." ”

That being said, why is Xu Ming still a little empty in his heart?

In such a year, a large number of people is also a kind of strength, and being able to feed so many people means that there is enough food.

Food, is there anything more important than food in the war years? Xu Ming really needs to think about it, what is Liu Yan's origin, and who is behind it.

Today's Saibei has many forces, but Saibei is the nest of the Huns who have been entrenched for hundreds of years, and it is still the largest power of the Huns. Later Zhao destroyed Liu Han (Xiongnu), but did not exterminate the Huns, after Liu Han was destroyed, most of the Huns retreated to the outside of the Saiwai and continued to run the grassland.

The Xu family is just the head snake of Cabinet County, and there are not many things that can be heard, but they probably know that the relationship between Hou Zhao and Saibei is lukewarm, and they rarely attack each other.

What kind of existence is Cabinet County? The Hu people wreaked havoc on the Central Plains, the Jin people fled south twice, and the population of the counties in the Central Plains was repeatedly reduced.

Liu Yan came with nearly 1,500 people, just to make the Xu family, who didn't know what to do, jealous, and in some ways, the goal was achieved.
