Chapter 96: Grassland Movement

The seeds of a plant buried in the soil will slowly germinate until they break through the soil. A seed of conspiracy buried in people's hearts will slowly ferment until it changes human nature.

In the sixth year of Zhao Xiaocheng's reign, from the cold winter to the hot summer, both Zhao and Hungary maintained as much restraint as possible, and the war seemed to have become a distant story. Border exchanges are becoming more and more numerous, and the exchange of goods is innumerable, and hatred seems to be forgotten by the temptation of money.

During this period of time, with the support of Zhao State, Zamu and his tribe mastered the commercial and trade activities north of his department, quickly annexed dozens of impoverished small tribes by force, and easily co-opted several medium-sized tribes to form an alliance through lure, becoming one of the tribes with important voice in the grassland.

Autumn, the cold air penetrates the bones, and it has always been a ghost gate that is difficult for patients to survive. For Zamuhe, his life is coming to an end, and the arrangements for the things behind him are urgent.

On this day, when he was dying, he gathered his subordinates and generals, wanting to take care of everyone with what happened after his death.

"My father died early, and I have been the patriarch for more than 20 years! In the past 20 years, thanks to your assistance, I have been able to sit firmly in the position of patriarch, and I would like to thank you all in advance! Zamuhe continued intermittently: "Now, most of my life is short, and the fate of my department can be seen. Fortunately, I still have a son, although he is still young, but with your assistance and everyone's concerted efforts, I think I will be able to get through the current difficulties! ”

"Dare not to serve wholeheartedly and assist the young master!" Everyone under the bed bowed their heads when they heard this, and they said sincerely.

"Thank you for not giving up, I thank you in advance!" Zha Muhe raised his weak hand with difficulty, pointed to the woman and child standing beside him, and continued: "This is my woman An Sina, my son Zha Yansheng, I hope you can serve me with your heart." ”

"The god of Kunlun is above, we will do our best to assist the young master, if you violate this oath, the sky will thunder!" Touman was the first to bow down. Subsequently, General Yi and the rest of the people also swore allegiance one after another.

"My son is young, and he can't make a decision yet, so I have to work hard for you!" With the last of his strength, Zamuhe commanded: "Those who are undecided in civil affairs can ask the general, those who are indecisive in military affairs can ask Touman, and those who are undecided in personnel matters can be discussed by everyone!" ”

That night, Zha Mu and died of illness, the wind direction on the grassland changed again, and the Xiongnu led more than 10,000 soldiers and horses south.

The slight changes on the grassland reached Datong on the evening of the second day, and Li Mu immediately gathered his subordinates to discuss how to deal with it. Some generals proposed to take advantage of the Xiongnu civil strife to go north for revenge, but Li Mu stopped it.

"Zhamu and the ministry are not chaotic, and the Huns are not moving, so it is not appropriate to send troops at this time!" Li Mu weighed the pros and cons and retorted.

"It's time to use the Touman's dark chess!" Zhao Jie said after pondering on the side: "Let Jiang Shangren personally go to Zamu and the Ministry of Harmony!" ”

—————————————————————————————————————

"Shang Zhi" contains: Jiang Shangren, a native of Mayi in Zhao State, is a horse seller in the industry, famous for Soma in the north, his family is tens of millions of gold, and he is the richest man in Mayi. In the early years of filial piety, Li Mu, the guard of Yanmen County, sought talents, and Jiang Shangren recommended himself to be selected, and traveled back and forth to the northern part of the grassland to trade goods and listen to information. After the battle of Zhao and Huns, Li Mu once praised and said: "Zhao defeated the Xiongnu, and Shang Ren was the first meritorious."

"Jingle ......"

The melodious wind chimes drifted in all directions on the open field, and a caravan of Zhao State loaded with goods slowly moved forward.

"Zhao Guo merchant, what good things did you bring this time!" An ordinary Hun with a royal horse passing by asked loudly.

"Brother, this time we have brought the best flower cloth, plenty of food, and all kinds of daily necessities." The leader, Jiang Shangren, replied with a smile: "I don't know if your head can prepare horses, cattle and sheep. ”

"It turned out to be Mr. Jiang, I haven't seen you for a long time, I didn't expect you to come in person." The knight was pleasantly surprised and said, "My young master has prepared everything, and the wine and food are waiting for the arrival of Mr." ”

Following in the footsteps of the knight, Jiang Shangren soon arrived at the tented area of Zamu and the tribe.

"Hahaha! Mr. Jiang is here, don't worry about it this winter! Tou Man opened his arms and hugged Jiang Shangren.

"Brother Touman, long time no see!" Jiang Shangren also opened his arms and hugged his head and said, "Your laughter is still so hearty."

"Brother Jiang is here, I can only laugh heartily?" Touman hooked Jiang Shangren's shoulders and continued: "Mr. Jiang, take me to see what good things you brought this time!" ”

"Ten carts of good flower cloth, thirty carts full of grain, five carts of snow-white salt, three carts of iron pots and other daily necessities!" Jiang Shangren pointed to the long horse team in the distance and continued: "I don't know if the general's war horse, the cattle and sheep are also ready!" ”

"Mr. Jiang is still so treacherous and cunning, he doesn't scatter eagles if he doesn't see rabbits!" Tou Man smiled and ordered the guards behind him: "Aman, go and tell General Yi that the caravan of Zhao is coming, and by the way, where are the horses, cattle and sheep exchanged?" ”

"We are merchants, and the rule has always been to inspect the goods first, then trade, and finally feast, so it's better not to disobey it! But ......" Jiang Shangren paused, and then asked with a puzzled expression: "I heard that Brother Touman is also a person who cares about his life, why is he not even clear about such a trivial matter as hoarding materials?" ”

"The ancestor left a will, I and General Xi are in charge of civil and military affairs, and things such as grain and grass hoarding belong to civil affairs, so I don't know!" Touman explained to Jiang Shangren.

"The soldiers and horses have not moved, the grain and grass go first, so Brother Man will not be subject to the general in the future!" Jiang Shangren said with an ambiguous expression.

"Brother Jiang, don't sow discord." Hearing this, Tou Man's face changed, and he said coldly, "I and General Xi are both people who take care of their lives, how can we part ways when we are dedicated to assisting the young master." ”

"Of course, it is a blessing for your ministry that Brother Touman can think like this, but I don't know what General Na Yi thinks!" Jiang Shangren said without fear: "I say this to give you a wake-up call, and it is also for your good, you must know that the heart of guarding against others is indispensable!" ”

"I think Mr. Jiang is too worried!" Tou Man said with a firm expression: "I invite you to watch a play tonight, and after watching it, you will know the unity of our department." ”

"What's the play?" Jiang Shangren asked with interest when he heard this.

"Eradicate the mole!" Touman replied with a resolute expression.
