Chapter 240: The Wealthy Clan's Surname of Land Annexation

"The first time we meet, it is not a respect."

When the soldiers opened the boxes one by one, Jia Xu smiled at He Lian.

Except for two chests of gold, the rest are jade jewelry.

He Lian Xi raised his eyebrows, immediately stood up from his seat, and strode down.

He was seven and a half feet long, dressed in a mink coat, with a small braid and a sash around his forehead. Judging from his stature, he is also a man of courage.

Looking at these gold and silver jewelry, He Lian almost salivated.

"Why is the general so sincere?" He Lianxi couldn't help asking, but his eyes kept staring at these gold and silver jewelry.

"Shan Yu's Tuoba Department repeatedly disturbed our borders, and the hussar general couldn't bear it anymore and sent troops to destroy it. Afterwards, the hussar general felt that he had damaged Shan Yu's face, and sent me some gifts to Shan Yu. These gold, silver, and jewels were obtained from the Tuoba Department, and the present thing was returned to its original owner. Jia Xu replied to Helian, looking respectful.

"The Tuoba Department is really hateful, I have always restrained my subordinates not to harass the Han Realm, who wants to Tuoba to do perverse acts, it is really innocent."

Jia Xu's words made Helian Dasheng feel good, and Tuoba did not obey his orders, thinking that he could dominate one side by nesting in the declining city.

Although the Han army destroyed the Tuoba Department, it did not slaughter the Xianbei people, and the Ke tribe eventually annexed the Tuoba Xianbei people.

If the Han army killed all the 10,000 people of Tuoba Xianbei, it would not only provoke a backlash from the Xianbei tribes, but also make other tribes on the grassland fearful.

This kind of person who destroys people and tribes at every turn is afraid of everyone. Liu Fan does not have the strength to control the prairie for the time being.

Helian has a paranoid concept, and anyone who does not obey his orders is betraying his father and betraying him.

It's just that for those tribes who betrayed him, and Lian has a weak heart.

He is not ambitious, and can even be said to be short-sighted. He thinks that he is a big man, and everyone in the world should revolve around him, self-righteous, and empty-eyed.

Helian's talent was not enough for him to support this position, and the leaders of the Xianbei tribes, who were already thinking differently, broke away from Shan Yuting one after another because of Helian's unfair judgment.

As the leader of the nomadic people, it is necessary to be fair, otherwise he will not be able to convince the people.

"Alas! The hussar general was originally under one person in the court and above ten thousand. Now it has been relegated to the frontier and administers a county. Despite this, the general is still strong. Shan Yu is in the north, the general is in the south, and he is willing to form an alliance with Shan Yu to advance and retreat together, and Xianbei and Dahan will be together for a hundred years. Jia Xu sighed, in vain.

Regarding Jia Xu's casual remarks, He Lianxin thought it was true and said: "I have long had this idea, and I will send an envoy to Yanmen to give gifts in the near future to form friendship."

"The hussar general attaches great importance to righteousness, if he has a dispute with Shan Yu under his command, as long as Shan Yu writes down a letter, the hussar general will lead the army to the north to stabilize the position of the overlord of the grassland." Jia Xu said wittily.

Righteous war, between the two countries, how can there be a righteous war?

"Although there are small people, who dares to argue with me? You generals don't have to bother. He Lianjiao deer deceived himself.

He couldn't distinguish between reality and dreams, how could he unify the Xianbei tribes like his father?

"At any time, please don't forget the Hussar General, he will definitely help you in your most difficult time." Jia Xu stroked his beard, such a Xianbei list is what Jia Xu is most willing to see.

"Okay, let your general rest assured, I Xianbei will not disturb the Han realm again."

Even if Helian is simple-minded, he understands that Jia Xu's purpose for coming here is nothing more than to prevent his tribe from helping the Tuoba Department to take revenge.

"Shan Yu is wise and martial, I believe that Shan Yu will definitely be able to restrain his subordinates." Jia Xu's words were slightly agitated.

"That's it! Is that! "And Lian Yi is complacent.

After the goal was achieved, Jia Xu and Zhao Yun bid farewell to Helian.

After the outsiders left, He Lian couldn't put down the gold, silver and jewelry, and laughed heartily.

……

Yanmen, Mayi.

It was Liu Fan's attack on Xianbei and the Megatron Border County.

This feat, which has not been performed by the Han Dynasty for decades. The Haoqiang family is restless, what a murderous character at this time?

When the previous Taishou took office, they were still making waves.

Now that Liu Fan has not yet taken office, the family is trembling under his prestige.

That's where prestige comes with the benefits of majesty.

Prestige can be admired, and majesty can be feared by the lawless.

When the army was still dozens of miles away from Mayi, Liu Fan quietly came to Mayi City.

He only brought a dozen elite guards, Xun You, Huang Zhong, Wang Yue, Zhao Ji, Shi A, etc. all walked with him.

These people are enough to protect Liu Fan's safety.

Liu Fan and others rode in from the north city gate, and the generals wore draped clothes, and the guards did not dare to stop them.

"Mayi stands in front of the Guyanmen Pass, which is an important town on the border, and if the general expands the territory to the Han Dynasty, the strategic significance of Mayi will be greatly reduced." Everyone walked on the official road, and Xun You explained to Liu Fan.

Guyanmen Pass is the first pass in the world, and this kind of pass has been abandoned for hundreds of years, not to mention Mayi.

"The dock fort we passed by just now is taller than Mayi City, and the surrounding thousands of hectares of fertile land should also belong to the owner of the dock fort, which is really shocking." At this time, Liu Fan was not interested in the rise and fall of Ma Yi, and said melancholy.

"The Wu family is a tyrant in Yanmen. Because of the disagreement with the policies of the imperial court, the privatization of land intensified, and hundreds of people went bankrupt under the land annexation. In order to survive, most of the people became powerful serfs, and many of them had more than 10,000 serfs under them, and they rented and cultivated Haoqiang's land, and had to pay a large amount of land rent after harvesting. In addition, they also have to serve Haoqiang without compensation. Serfs were the most lowly people, who lost not only their land, but also their personal freedom, and belonged to the powerful private property. They are engaged in heavy labor and serve the powerful all their lives. Xun Yu said indignantly.

But anyone with foresight can see that this is a sign of chaos in the world, a sign of a change of dynasty.

When the people of the world have no land, it is the time to rise up.

The end of the Eastern Han Dynasty was an era of rapid expansion of powerful forces. The wealthy clans, often high-ranking officials for generations, firmly controlled the local government and owned large granges, and they dominated one side by running the granges.

The Grange is mainly agricultural, but also engaged in animal husbandry, handicrafts and commerce, and is basically self-sufficient, and each Grange is like a small independent kingdom.

Because of the turbulent times and being at the border, Haoqiang generally established defensive military fortresses and had a large number of soldiers. At this time, the manor was not only engaged in production, but also a powerful military organization.

The dock fort is a military fortress and a granary, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack.

"Is there a way for the left army division to let me stabilize the situation in Yanmen, issue a tuntian policy, and rescue the people of Limin?" Liu Fan asked Xun You.
