The sunset slowly slid down the hill with blood, and the afterglow finally shone on the battlefield outside Yanmen Pass, the corpses all over the ground had covered the autumn grass, the bright red blood dyed the land red, the broken sword and gun battle flag, and the arrow shaft like the wild grass swayed in the autumn wind.

Xu Huang proudly stood in front of Yanmen Pass, proudly standing on this huge battlefield.

He can be proud, because he has a proud capital, 20,000 against 50,000, and completely annihilated the enemy, only Ukulele fled the battlefield with his few dead soldiers. But the enemy of less than a thousand can't make any waves at all, and in the north of Yanmen Pass, within 500 miles, there is no longer a formed Xianbei team that can stop Xu Huang's iron hooves, so Xu Huang ordered to sweep the grassland of 500 miles from north to south and thousands of miles from east to west.

There was no longer resistance from the main enemy, so Xu Huang decided that every two thousand teams would be an action group, and ten plundering teams would kill the grassland.

For Gao Gan's war situation, he is not ready to help him, first, he believes that the brothers led by Gao Gan will complete their tasks very well, and second, he does not want to meddle there, giving people a kind of show off, or the idea of snatching military merits, being a man must be measured, and doing his duty well is the first priority.

The Udon tribe is not large, that is, 2,000 people, with tens of thousands of cattle and sheep, and three or four thousand horses, Lord Budugen has not launched a war against the south for several years, and the Han people in the south are quite cooperative and no longer go deep into the grassland, which brings rare peace to this grassland, and the days are peaceful and rich.

A young herdsman galloped up on horseback and shouted excitedly to his chief: "I have found a good pasture for the winter, where the water and grass are abundant, and where no one else has occupied it, and where I have made a mark of our people." ”

"How many cattle, sheep and horses can it hold?" This is very necessary.

According to the convention, every autumn is about to enter the winter, to find a piece of pasture for winter, to assess the number of livestock that the grassland can hold, and then the excess cattle, sheep and horses have to be killed, this is an absolute waste, but there is no way, this is the rule of nature, so the number of cattle and sheep can always be controlled within the range that the grassland can bear.

The young man said excitedly: "There is enough pasture for all our cattle, sheep and horses to survive the winter." ”

The head man will give his hands to the sky and thank the immortal heaven, because as long as he does not slaughter cattle, sheep and horses excessively, his own people will have enough seeds next year to breed more cattle, sheep and horses, so that his tribe will be richer, with sufficient food, and then there will be stable days, the population of his tribe will grow, thinking about the beautiful days in the future, the leader can't help but smile happily.

Standing between the herds of cattle and sheep, the leader looked south: "According to the custom, the Han caravan in the south should come over, they will bring us enough cloth, medicinal materials and salt, this year there are more cattle and sheep, just change some tea, that thing is indeed a good thing, not only can relieve people from greasy, but also often drink that thing can also make people less sick, since the tea is used in the tribe, there are many fewer children who die every year." ”

The young man replied in agreement: "Tea is indeed a good thing, but that thing is too expensive, a cow is only exchanged for two catties, and two sheep are exchanged for a catty, and the Han people are too greedy, so they use this method to rob us of a lot of wealth." ”

The head man smiled: "The Han people have the salt and tea we need, and we have the indispensable grain and cloth that we need, but we also have the cattle and sheep that they lack, and it doesn't matter if they take advantage of us now, as long as our horses are strong, as long as our children are strong, one day, we will go to the south, take back the wealth they have obtained from us, and now they are just keeping it for us." ”

This is the logic of the steppe people, when I don't want to fight with you, I endure your exploitation of me, but the idea of snatching back their wealth has never given up, in their opinion, the wealth that the Han people have obtained from themselves is just temporarily stored in him, and those Han people are just guarding for themselves, as long as there is an opportunity, their army goes south, those wealth, and the women of the Han people, will obediently return to their own hands.

Of course, the young man understood this, so he looked south with some fascination: "Give us another three or five years of peace, and then the things there will be mine." ”

The leader nodded, and then instructed the young man: "You should inform all the people in the tribe now, and start to bring back the sheep, cattle and horses scattered all over the place, and then we will count the numbers, divide the old and weak livestock, and prepare to trade with the Han people, and then count our families, and after the first frost has fallen, we will move to the field." ”

The young man ran away with a shout.

With the news of the transition, more than a thousand tribesmen began to ride their horses to the grasslands in all directions, to find their own tribe's cattle, sheep and horses, this is a very critical time, even the children who can climb on horseback are released.

After five days of traveling, waves of cattle, sheep and horses were driven back to the camp, and the old man sitting on the grass bent his fingers to calculate, of course, they did not have an accurate number, only an approximation.

When each herd of cattle, sheep and horses came back, the old man's smile was one point more, and every time a group of clansmen came back, the old man's smiling face was even brighter.

"This group is ready to exchange with the Han Chinese." The old man meditated silently in his heart.

Another herd of cattle and sheep was driven back: "This group is ready to be handed over to the adults." Then he couldn't help but be proud: "This year, I can hand over no less than 3,000 war horses to my lords, and all of them are fat and strong, and this time Lord Budugen will definitely praise me." ”

Another herd of cattle, sheep and horses was driven back.

"This is our family, and with this herd of strong livestock, there will be more than double the number of cattle and sheep next year."

The whole clan returned, and the old man ordered a bonfire to be lit, and the clansmen gathered around the bonfire, set up whole cattle and sheep, and began a feast to celebrate the harvest.

The old man first took all the tribal personnel, and then held a grand ceremony around the bonfire to thank the gift of immortality, after doing the sacrifice handed down from generation to generation, the old man took out a rosary, and began to recite the newly learned Buddhist scriptures in stiff Chinese, praying that such days would continue, praying that the Buddha would bless his shortcomings, and the situation would continue to develop.

Buddhism has just been introduced, and every time I read Buddhist scriptures, it gives people a sense of peace of mind, which makes people unconsciously become calm and satisfied.

"May the Buddha always be with us, and may there be no killing wars in the days to come, Amitabha."
