Maybe it's because of the alcohol, Dongzhu's face is slightly red, but it makes this twelve or thirteen-year-old girl look a little coquettish, as for who her brother is, Sun Xiangfu didn't guess, left and right is just a girl with no scheming, Pingshui meets, Sun Xiangfu just wants to invite her to a meal and learn about the customs of Xue Yantuo.

"You can call me Sun Zhengming, Brother Sun."

Sun Xiangfu said, and made a gesture of please, signaling Dongzhu to eat barbecue with him around the fire, Dongzhu naturally did not refuse, after responding to Sun Xiangfu's invitation to sit, her entourage was also invited by Xi Junmai, Zhang Ke and others to sit, for now, Datang and Xue Yantuo have never had a war, and it is still a cooperative relationship on the surface, and among the other party's people, women are the majority, yes, the scene is quite harmonious.

"Listen to my eldest brother, to the south of us, there is an amazing new neighbor, who can grow spices on the grassland, is that what spices are added to your barbecue?"

Just smelling the smell, Dongzhu's appetite widened, and after a mouthful of wolf meat entered her mouth, her eyes lit up, and she said while shaking her cheeks and chewing.

Sun Xiangfu didn't proudly say that the amazing person was himself, but said with a smile, "The grassland can not only grow spices, but also grow a lot of food crops, you nomads have been grazing for generations, but they can't eat enough for generations, once they suffer from the white plague, life will become very difficult, so, if your brother is interested, you can let him go to Shanyang City as a guest, where, even if he can't learn to farm, you can also use the cattle and sheep you feed to exchange for a large batch of grain." ”

"Grain? Didn't the emperor of the Tang State control grain, salt and iron very strictly? Will you sell to us? ”

Hearing the word 'you', Sun Xiangfu knew that this little girl from Dongzhu had guessed her identity, after all, the person who could get more than a thousand elite knight guards, the status was definitely not low, combined with some information that his brother told her, it was not difficult for her to determine Sun Xiangfu's identity. Just now, she deliberately touted Sun Xiangfu, but unfortunately Sun Xiangfu did not accept the offer, which made her feel a little more reverence for Sun Xiangfu in her heart.

"What's wrong with this, as the output of Datang increases, it is inevitable to sell it to the outside world, so that everyone can get together and live a good life, which is the wish of His Majesty the Emperor."

Hearing Sun Xiangfu's words, Dongzhu's mind seemed to be flooded with some memories of his early years, not to mention, take the snow disaster three or four years ago, Xue Yantuo's department was frozen to death by one percent of the population, and more cattle and sheep were frozen to death, so that in those years or two, the entire Xue Yantuo department had not eaten enough, and moreover, he had to brave the cold weather and hunt frantically on the grassland, of course, because of this, Xue Yantuo's combat effectiveness on the horse was improved a lot.

It is precisely because of this that Yi Nan worked hard and embarked on the road of competing for hegemony among the grassland tribes, and what Dongzhu, who was still young at the time, remembered was only the scene of those herdsmen being frozen to death.

"Are you telling the truth?" Dongzhu looked at Sun Xiangfu with some disbelief, the girl was precocious, as the sister of the head of the Xue Yantuo tribe, she was much higher than the level that ordinary people had come into contact with, and naturally she also had a certain sense of the overall situation.

"Of course, didn't I send an envoy to your Xue Yantuo Department before and invite your leaders to Shanyang to discuss."

"My eldest brother said that before winter, he would conquer the Turgish tribe and unify the land of Mobei, so I was the only one who came."

"Who is your eldest brother?"

"Yi Nan."

All right! Sun Xiangfu finally confirmed Dongzhu's identity, Yi Nan's sister, however, now that history has changed, Li Shimin did not find Yi Nan to cooperate with Jie Li, nor did he give him the title of Khan, yes, Yi Nan's population and power were earned by his own hard work, so, will he be willing to live in peace with the Tang Dynasty as in history?

In fact, Sun Xiangfu had been worried that Xue Yantuo would become the next Turk because he had not read much history.

Although Xue Yantuo, who was in charge of Yi Nan in history, was powerful, he did not start a full-scale conflict with the Tang Dynasty, and it was after Yi Nan's death that several of Yi Nan's sons competed for the throne and civil strife occurred, and Li Shimin found an opportunity to eliminate it in one fell swoop.

Hearing Dongzhu say that Yi Nan is a person with a unified mind, Sun Xiangfu suddenly felt that he might be an ambitious person, and he couldn't help but think about it more.

"It turns out that you are the envoy sent by Xue Yantuo's Ministry to Shanyang City, no wonder you don't see the Tang Army under me at all!"

Sun Xiangfu was thinking about things in his heart, and his answer was naturally slower, but Dongzhu answered again, "I'm not the messenger sent by my brother to Shanyang, I just want to see what the Han city looks like." ”

Wine is a good thing, it's easy to tell the truth if you drink too much, Dongzhu is just a twelve or thirteen-year-old girl, how much wine can she drink? Just when she was eating meat just now, she was afraid that there would be three or four taels, at this time, although she was still chatting while eating, but the kind of little daughter's demeanor that was not pretentious had already been shown, Sun Xiangfu knew that this girl was already slightly drunk.

"Good! I'm afraid that if you live in Shanyang City, you won't want to go back to the grassland again. Sun Xiangfu smiled and said.

Since she is going to Shanyang, then, just along with herself, anyway, the work of measuring the land area and surveying the soil texture has been completed.

"No, we prairie people, every day when we can't see our cattle and sheep, we will panic, I miss my lamb a little now, but I don't want to give up halfway."

"Hehe, that's what I said, just like the people of our Tang Dynasty, if they can't see the crops in the fields, they will be inexplicably panicked, can you tell me how many sheep you raise?"

"I've got thirty of them! But most of the time it's my servants who take care of ······."

Sun Xiangfu deceived the ignorant girl in this way, and after drinking for two hours, Dongzhu almost told Sun Xiangfu when she came to Tiankui.

Moreover, Sun Xiangfu overestimated the nomads' resistance to wine, and when he was about to announce the end of this barbecue feast, Dongzhu and the entourage she brought, whether male or female, few of them could stand firm on the ground, which made Sun Xiangfu feel that when he wanted to attack the nomads in the future, he should give them some spirits first, so that there would be no need to waste any energy in the fight.

"Zhang Ke, let's camp and rest for one night! These people are our honored guests, don't slack off. ”

When Sun Xiangfu talks about things, Xi Junmai usually doesn't come close, because he is afraid of thinking about it, but when no one talks to Sun Xiangfu about things, he likes to come over.

"What's interesting, it's interesting to this little girl?"

"Go, go, I have face blindness for all non-Han women."

"Face blindness?"

"I just can't remember what they look like, just like your twelve wives, and I can't tell who is who now, so I never call them by name."

"I said! Actually, they're also very cute, you don't know, their bones are soft, they can make all kinds of moves, and it's fun to be at night. ”

"Hey, I said can you still have a good chat, it's interesting that I haven't seen you give birth to a son, people are vigorous, and the second child is pregnant."

"The rough shell also said that the shell is deflated, he just gave birth to a daughter, if I give birth, I will give birth to a son."

"The most annoying patriarchal person like you, I gave you a task later, can you complete it?"

"Just say something."

"Take a thousand people, before the heavy snow falls, search for the thousands of miles east of Shanyang, and if you meet a small tribe, just say a line to me."

"What's the line?"

Sun Xiangfu thought for a while and said, "Please come to Shanyang for the winter, there is food, grass, and a warm house." ”

Hearing this, Xi Junmai was confused, "What the hell? ”

"That is, let the herdsmen in the jurisdiction of our Anbei Metropolitan Protectorate go to Shanyang City for the winter, and we will provide them with food, pasture, and warm houses for the winter, but by the way! I also registered them, and in the future, they will all be counted as people under my rule, and their production and life will be arranged by me. By the way, you'd better learn the Turkic version. ”

"Gather all the people to Shanyang? There are a lot of people here, when Dutuli lair, there were thirty or forty thousand old and weak women and children over there, and there were many small tribes of more than 1,000 people along the way, but there were no young people. ”

"What we want is a lot of people, if these people are scattered, the productivity is backward, not only can not contribute any taxes, but also drag the country back, concentrated together, but can create big benefits, and, if you want to really rule here, you must promote our culture to them, the big winter cat in the city, it is equivalent to let them adapt to living with our Han people, deepen the communication with us, and cultural education has to start from children, so, this winter, in the Anbei Metropolitan Protectorate, all children over the age of three must learn Chinese······"

How can it be said that it is easy for Xi Jun to buy and chat with Sun Xiangfu for a while! As he spoke, he forgot the purpose of talking to Sun Xiangfu just now.

"That, stop, I don't know much about these things, just tell me, this expedition, do you have my share!"

"Who told you we're on a campaign?"

"Hehe, you can hide it from others, and you can hide it from me······"

"No, the main force of this expedition is General Li Jing's team, we are the capital of Anbei, only responsible for logistics supply, I will hand over this aspect to General Su, you are the general of Shangzhen, you have the responsibility of protecting the safety of Shanyang, in the future, you must train an army that is enough to protect Shanyang.

However, I know that what you are good at is cavalry fighting, training infantry defense, I will hand over the responsibility of Guo Po, and you will be responsible for training me a cavalry unit with super mobility! The number of people is 5,000 to 8,000, there is no limit to Hu Han, how can you recruit so many people and get so many horses, I suggest you go and ask Abu Tusi, in terms of money, food, and equipment, the Protectorate will provide you with the full amount. ”

Li Shimin's conscription target for Sun Xiangfu was more than 25,000, and now, all the generals under Sun Xiangfu are in charge of conscription, and they only hate the lack of strong men in the entire Anbei Metropolitan Protectorate area.

As for how to support the subordinate army, in fact, Sun Xiangfu is not worried at all, and when the investment will be opened, his money will roll in, and after those families begin to take land for development, Sun Xiangfu will make a lot of money, just like the real estate businessmen of later generations, once they start to build real estate, then, reinforced concrete, bricks, various decoration materials, household appliances, etc., and other downstream products, there will be a big round of sales, as the largest owner of Shanyang, Sun Xiangfu, has already begun to prepare similar supporting equipment for them, I just hate that when the time comes, he will count the money and count until his hands cramp.
