Chapter 460: Going East Can Turn Over the Yalu River 34
Zhou Nan had been waiting for a long time, and after Agu Zhe came out of the city, he was taken directly to see Zhou Nan.
Agu Zhe thanked Zhou Nan first, and he knew that if Zhou Nan didn't help him, he would have been able to avenge his dead five hundred soldiers. Now according to Zhou Nan's strategy, he came step by step, not only freed his clan from Xiao Gan's coercion, but also killed the enemy Eight catties.
Now Aguzhe only wants to let his people go back to Jianke Mountain, to Lulongling, which is their hometown of ridicule. What worries Agu Zhe is that the west, east, and north of Jianke Mountain are now the territory of the Jin soldiers, and one day the Jin people will send troops to capture their ridiculous territory. Since Zhou Nan promised to give the Xi people a stable life, let's see how to settle them and Xi people.
Zhou Nan asked in detail how the eight catties of the second room were killed, and asked about the situation of the Xi people of the Ori Department and the Xi people of the Bird Department in the city, and knew that these five Xi people did not form a mortal enmity with each other, so he said to Agu Zhe, "General Yelu, just rest assured, since I promised you, as long as you Xi people are obedient, I will give you a place for the Xi people to survive and reproduce." Now there are still Xi people who want to raise troops and plunder? ”
Seeing that Zhou Nan took the initiative to talk about what he was worried about, Agu Zhe hurriedly shook his hand and said, "Please rest assured, I dare to use my Agu Zhe's life as a guarantee, and now the Xi people will never raise troops again, let alone send troops to plunder the people of the prefecture and county." ”
Zhou Nan asked, "The Jin people have captured most of Zhongjing, Zezhou and Bei'an Prefecture are all in the hands of the Jin people, and the Jianke Mountain has been encircled, I don't know what your Xi people plan to do in the future?" ”
"Zai is worried about this matter, "If the Xi people are only 70,000 or 80,000 soldiers, it is naturally easy to say, but there are still more than 100,000 old and weak women and children in the clan, they have been farming in Lulong for several generations, and then change a place, I don't know how much manpower and material resources will cost." Agu Zhe said worriedly, "It's not an urgent matter for the Jin people to conquer, there is a shortage of food in the clan right now, so I'm afraid that we won't be able to pass this year." Xi Ren was originally a part of Da Liao, and now the concubine and the princess are in charge of Yanjing, and they also ask the concubine to save me Xi Ren. ”
Zhou Nan had already thought about how to settle the Xi people, the Xi people were just few people, so after being recovered by Yelu Abaoji, they had been surrendering to Daliao, where the Xi people were, and had frequent contact with the Han people, in addition to grazing, they gradually learned to farm, and the Xi people used Chinese characters in the language and writing, which can be said to be very similar to the Han people. The Xi people also have the ancestral skill of making Xi chariots, and can make all kinds of horse-drawn carriages, such as the light and dexterous carts ridden by the rich, the carts that transport heavy goods, and a kind of amphibious carts. The Xi people can be regarded as industrious, and in addition to being asked by the Liao army to go out to fight together, the Xi people have no history of looting and attacking the people around them, so Zhou Nan wants to completely absorb these Xi people.
In this day and age, there are people who can do things. Farming is the foundation of this society, and in the case of backward agricultural technology, only a large number of skilled farmers can cultivate and produce enough food. When people are full, they can carry out other activities.
Now that Zhou Nan has recovered the area from Jizhou to Yongqing, someone is needed to cultivate it, and these simple and hard-working Xi people are exactly what Zhou Nan needs.
Historically, Jin Taizu also attached great importance to Xi people. At first, he wanted to adopt the method of surrender to accommodate the Xi people led by Xiao Gan, but Xiao Gan turned a deaf ear to the flattering eyes thrown by Wanyan Aguda and refused to do so, and Wanyan Aguda was very depressed. However, the scheming Wanyan Agu predicted that the Xi people led by Xiao Gan were embattled and could not achieve a big deal, so he adopted the strategy of trapping the troops and attacking the Xi people, in order to reduce their own casualties, and under the shortage of materials, the Xi people led by Xiao Gan had to go south and fought a few battles with the Song soldiers, but they were defeated and finally killed by their own people. As soon as Xiao Gan died, these taunts naturally fell into the hands of the Jin people.
However, now history has deviated from the original trajectory, Wanyan Agu beat the Xi people and trapped the soldiers, surrounded but did not fight, but Zhou Nan was cheaper, so that Zhou Nan subdued the Xi people.
Now that Agu Zhe himself opened his mouth and begged Zhou Nan to save them, Zhou Nan naturally would not refuse.
"At present, there are Jin people besieging in the north and Pingzhou in the southeast, and the situation is very unfavorable to you. However, I can't go north to help you for a while, and there is no danger in the area of Jianke Mountain, so it is better for you to defend Lulongsai first, and once the Jin people attack, let the clansmen retreat to Lulongsai, and you can save your life without worry. Naturally, I will send people over to guard Lu Longsai, and you Xi people only need to send troops to help. In the future, I will lead the troops to the north to recover the Lulongling and Jianke Mountain that belong to you for you, what do you think? ”
Agu Zhe was overjoyed, thinking that Zhou Nan would prevaricate him, or ask them to send troops to fight against the Jin people. Now what Zhou Nan said is reasonable, first temporarily stick to Lulongsai, with Lulongsai's natural and geographical advantages, coupled with the soldiers and horses sent by Zhou Nan, of course, the Jin soldiers can be blocked in the north of Lulongsai Pass. As for the future, since Zhou Nan promised to get back for them the Lu Longling that belonged to them in the era of the Xi people, Agu Zhe believed that Zhou Nan would definitely do it.
"That'...... The colt is saying that I can move back to Luronse now? "If you can settle down in Lulongsen, you will naturally be safe, and you will not be afraid of the Jin people attacking.
"Yes. And in the future, I will open up land and cultivate in Jizhou, Jingzhou and the south of Jingzhou, there is a shortage of manpower, if there is a return to farming, you can settle down with the cultivated land, farm the land and pay endowments, and the Han people, Khitan people in general. Zhou Nan revealed to Aguzhe.
"If you can settle down in the Guannai, I don't know how many clansmen are vying to come." Agu Zhe thanked Zhou Nan first, and then asked embarrassedly, "It's just that there is a shortage of food right now, and I'm just afraid that it will be difficult to pass the New Year." Aguzhe also knows that hundreds of thousands of Xi people, in addition to the winter food they usually store, still need a lot of food to survive the winter safely if they want to avoid being frozen and starved to death. It's just that he also knows that Zhou Nan has sent people from Yanjing City to Anci, Xianghe and other cities a few days ago to send grain and rice to help the people in the city. Now that I speak again, how much grain can I have in Yanjing City? I'm afraid I'm going to blame myself for being greedy.
Sure enough, Zhou Nan smiled and said, "This is difficult to do, your clan has a large population, not comparable to one city and one county, and now Yanjing City is also preliminary, and there is a shortage in the library, so I am afraid that it will be difficult to help you anymore." ”
Aguzhe was a little disappointed, but still said, "I also know that the horse has a problem, and I also ask the horse to help somewhat, and I will repay it twice in the coming year." ”
Zhou Nan deliberately hesitated for a while before saying to Agu Zhe, "There is no food to give to you, but I have two ways to alleviate the current food shortage of your Xi people." "I like Song Chungui, please collect x Song Chungui.
