Chapter 564: The New Elephant of Longdong
Wuguan is now facing dozens of times the number of Rong people in the past, among which the Longrong tribes in Longdong, Shangyu and Lantian mostly maintain an attitude of awe to the Qin people, but it is also because of the strong army of the Qin State stationed around Wuguan.
Daqin's Longdong garrison is the original Wuguan guard general Shen Tuhu, the original Wuguan garrison, because the situation in Longdong is more complicated, the Wuguan garrison has become a standing army of 30,000 soldiers, which is also stationed in several important cities around Wuguan.
It is worth mentioning that the scout camp led by Lin Yuyan in Wuguan is now also stationed in Shangyu Bailiyi, so many soldiers, ninety percent of which are from the old Qin, but the huge number of soldiers did not let Longdong ask for a penny to Wancheng, and even the money and grain, cattle, horses and sheep sent to Wancheng every year are calculated on the scale of the hill.
These are all derived from the fact that the old Qin people in Longdong all like to go out of Wuguan to roam, waiting for the opportunity to capture Rong Di of Longdong as a slave, and the Central Plains Zhuxia people as a subordinate person, these foreign people, if they lose their personal body, as slaves, the treatment they receive is simply incomparable with the subordinates.
Its social status is equivalent to that of a prisoner, not only to strip his personal freedom, but even to tattoo his face again, such a slave was originally the slave of many Rongdi tribe chiefs or tribal magnates on the grassland, and there were also a very small number of people who were once in the tribe and their status was not low, but under the persecution of Daqin's soldiers, they were no different from the original slaves.
Such slaves, estimated at more than 300,000 under the rule of Longdong, grazed herds and boiled salt for the Qin people on the fertile land of Longdong, in exchange for daily survival rations.
In the eyes of the old Qin people, these slaves are no different from livestock, and even easier to tame than livestock, but in the eyes of these slaves, such days are countless times better than the days when they were slaves to those Rongdi tribes.
Those who are content are always happy, and these slaves who were born in Rongdi are also very content.
Lin Yuyan arrived in Longdong, the original Wuguan has become a small county, the area west of this county, in the past, because Rong Di often came to offend, it was also deserted, but now, the grasslands that have been reclaimed here, and the herds of cattle, horses and sheep look quite rich.
Now it is the weather in October, after a summer fat season in Jingguo, these cattle, sheep and horses are also very strong, and the old Qin people are also on horses, pointing at those cattle, sheep and horses, which probably means that more than half of the cattle, horses and sheep will be transported to Nanyang County, and then use the local straight road to sell them to all parts of the Central Plains and even Jingchu in exchange for money and grain.
A few years ago, Longdong was not suitable for farming, so every year Daqin made up for countless amounts of money and grain here, but who could have expected that after a few years, the money and grain piled up here would not even be able to pile up in the local warehouse.
Cheng Yu of Longdong County also came to meet Lin Yuyan, after arriving at Shangyu, the daily footsteps are not fast, only about thirty or forty miles, every ten miles there is a grassland, which is equivalent to the township of Daqin, but because the land is vast and sparsely populated, there are only about thirty or forty Qin soldiers from the old Qin people in the grassland, and the remaining more than 100 are all captured slaves.
Yu also explained: "Lao Qin's momentum is not small, a few years earlier, Lao Qin started a war against the Dog Rong Royal Court, I don't know why, the Dog Rong and Yiqu are very differentiated, it is said that Yiqu took Lao Qin into the Dog Rong Royal Court, and there are not a few Rong people who ran over from Longxi, like the original Blue Bird, Red Spear, Black Stone and other tribes, but also took refuge in the Qin State early, seeking refuge. ”
This made Lin Yuyan a little unexpected: "Old Qin's forces are already bordering Great Qin?" ”
You Yu nodded and said: "In the Lantian area, Lao Qin also set up counties there, but because he saw that Lantian had Daqin's army deployment, Lao Qin didn't make many big moves, but Rong Di, who fled from Longxi, was captured a lot by the old Qin people. ”
Originally, I thought that Lao Qin's expansion was only limited to the Longxi area, but I didn't expect that the Qin State actually launched a counterattack war against all the Rongdi in the four borders of the Qin State.
A day later, under the leadership of Shang Yu, Lin Yuyan also came to Bailiyi, Shang in 600 miles of narrow terrain, starting from the original Wuguan, arrived at Lantian, many of which twists and turns, in order to facilitate governance, the old Qin people from scratch, and then 600 miles of Shang on the ancient road, set up several heavy cities.
Baili-eup is one of them.
At the beginning, the 500 people of the scout camp were Huang Lie, because of the military exploits of the relocation, they were already 3,000 generals in Bailiyi, and the salt land in the south and the grassland in the north within a radius of dozens of miles in Bailiyi were all under its jurisdiction.
As for the original counselor Han Yan, Huang Lie has also been inquiring about it all these years, and Huang Lie was also shocked and accepted it calmly, and categorically did not expect that the reinvention benefactor of the scout camp would actually be the prince of Great Qin, His Royal Highness Qin Gongzi Yingyan!
I heard that Qin Gongzi Yingyan came to Bailiyi, and Huang Lie also asked people to pick the strongest cattle and sheep, slaughter and cook them for Gongzi Yan as a banquet.
Most of the soldiers in the Baili Battalion under the command of Huang Lie are stationed in the grasslands and salt fields around Bailiyi, but just by seeing the soldiers stationed in Bailiyi, Lin Yuyan already knows that Huang Lie's Baili Battalion is not inferior to the Wuguan garrison back then.
Immediately, Lin Yuyan also accepted it very calmly, firstly, the original Wuguan guard Shen Tuhu was a strict Jiangling who governed the army, and secondly, this Yu was also a rare assistant talent, and secondly, the six hundred miles of Longdong, because of the wealth accumulated by the herd, was already incalculable.
Most of them have been recruited and expanded on top of the army.
When the defenders of Wuguan have the strength again, they will go out of the customs again to search for Rong Di slaves, and under such a virtuous circle, it is extremely difficult for Wuguan not to be rich.
A few days later, at noon, Lin Yuyan came to the Lantian area, and met the Lantian Battalion of 1,000 people patrolling here, led by a person, Lin Yuyan is no stranger.
It was Zong Wei and Wei Liang, who were next to the second brother Gongzi Xin. Can't find the latest chapter of a book you want to read? cough cough cough, it's not a thing, I recommend a public account, there is a young lady here to help you find the latest chapters, and chat with you!
