On the grassland, cold wind and light snow construct a beautiful scene.

Karasuma tribe.

The tribe uses sheepskin tents as houses, and relies on mountains and rivers to form a living tribal place on this grassland, and many shelves are also built around it to watch the enemy.

In the center of the tribe, in a large and ornate domed tent, the braziers at the four corners burned very strongly, and the heat was wisps and warm.

Sun Quan washed his hands on a plate of hot water, and then walked to the desk in the middle, sitting on a sheepskin futon, living on the grassland in the past few days, but he had a lot of feelings.

People who live on the grassland are wild and cheerful, and they can laugh and be happy even in the face of difficulties, which has a lot to do with the environment.

A person, if he looks at the endless grassland every day, under the blue sky and white clouds, facing the green grass and secluded, people's mood, even if they want to worry, I am afraid it is difficult.

"King, this is a map of the nearby grasslands!" At this time, Zhuge Jin opened the tent door in a hurry, walked in quickly, and spread out a newly marked map in front of the bookcase.

"Most of the terrain we have surveyed, the terrain is very good, west of Yuyang, east of Liaoxi, the distance is only 100 miles, in front of the Habe River, the water source is sufficient, and the back is a hillside with an altitude of less than 100 meters, which is not high, but it is also a barrier!"

Zhuge Jin is Sun Quan's detailed analysis.

"Ziyu, do you think this is a suitable place to build a city?"

Sun Quan listened while looking at the map on the bookcase, and only after half a ring did he ask.

"King, build a city on the grassland, if you choose an address, this is the best!"

Zhuge Jin thought for a moment. Cai said: "However, the grassland has always used the big tent as a house, herding horses and sheep, and being at peace with what happens, and there is no precedent for building a city, and it will be very troublesome if you want to really do it!" ”

"There is always a first time in everything!"

Sun Quan said lightly: "We, Wu State, don't want to give up the benefits brought by this prairie. We don't want these nomads to be like before, fighting a war and changing places, so we can only build a city, with our backs to the city, nomadic grasslands, and grazing horses and sheep! ”

"Karasuma people, will they agree?" Zhuge Jin asked with some concern.

"It depends on Lou Ban's ability!"

Sun Quan shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "The Karasuma people have now been sorted out by us, if Lou Ban can't control the overall situation." He doesn't deserve to be our spokesperson for controlling Karasuma! ”

In the past few days, Sun Quan has stationed in the Karasuma tribe in the name of King Wu, and the only remaining patriarchs of the Karasuma tribe he met with have fully supported the Lou Ban to take the throne.

He also personally brushed up the leader of the Karasuma tribe, several stubborn leaders, and the leader of the resentment against the Wu State, who had also been killed by him in public, killing chickens and monkeys.

all these years. The reaction of the Karasuma tribe is good, at least in the case of the surrender of the Wu Kingdom. There are no more disagreements.

The Karasuma tribe is stable and stays, so the next step is to use the word Karasuma people to disappear from history.

What Sun Quan has to do is to assimilate them.

"Wang, Lou Ban, I've been in contact with it for the past few days. He has good conversation and knowledge, has read books, does not look like a nomad, has good ability, and is hard to believe. With his talent, he has been suppressed by Bang Dun for so many years! Zhuge Jin said.

"Badun is a hero, and Lou Ban, he is at most a prince guarding one side, and it is normal for Badun to be able to suppress him on the throne!" Sun Quan smiled slightly and said, "But if we Wu Guo choose a Karasuma Shan Yu to control the Karasuma tribe, Lone would prefer to choose Louban instead of Bang Dun, do you know why?" ”

"Lou Ban is better to control than Bang Dun?"

Zhuge Jin's eyes lit up, and he said tentatively.

"Clever!"

Sun Quan nodded: "Badun must die, because he is not tame, but Lou Ban can accept our Wu State!" ”

"King, in a certain opinion, Lou Ban's heart is still towards the Karasuma tribe now, and it is hard to guarantee that he will not rebel against us again for the sake of Karasuma's so-called freedom!"

Zhuge Jin was a little cautious.

"After all, he is a Karasuma person, if he doesn't care about the Karasuma tribe, it is cold-blooded, such a leader, Lone still doesn't dare to use it!" Sun Quan stood up, and his eyes sharpened: "As long as he cares about the Karasuma tribe, it is equivalent to having a burden in his heart, as long as we control Karasuma, we can control him, and if we control him, we can control Karasuma, he can't get out of the palm of his lonely hand!" ”

"The king is wise!"

Zhuge Jin complimented: "In this way, as long as we stabilize the Lou Ban, the entire Karasuma will become a sharp blade for us to conquer the grassland alien races!" ”

"You can't say that, if you want the horse to run, you have to feed the horse, we still have to give him some hope!"

Sun Quan thought about it, took out a pen, dotted the ink, and then took a circle on the map, and wrote three words: Louban County.

"Loubanjun?" Zhuge Jin's eyes moved slightly.

Sun Quan put down the pen and ink in his hand, looked at Zhuge Jin, and said: "Lone plans to establish the first county on the grassland in the name of Louban, which is called Louban County, you come and build the shelf of this county for me, and the county guard is Louban!" ”

"The king plans to leave Lou Ban in the grassland?"

Zhuge Jin frowned slightly.

"He is on the prairie, so he can play his role!" Sun Quan nodded: "Only the Karasuma tribe can burn his greatest value and bring it back to Jinling, it is useless at all!" ”

"But this is not conducive to our control of the Karasuma tribe and Louban-gun!"

Zhuge Jin suggested: "It's better to send Louban to Jicheng, and another person to come and control Louban County!" ”

"Ziyu, sometimes don't do things with one look!"

Sun Quan shook his head, Zhuge Jin, who looked at him, said: "At the critical moment, if you want to use people boldly, you should trust him, as long as the rebellion can only be prevented, and it cannot be defined early on, otherwise we will always be in a state of distrust, which is very unfavorable for Wu to recover the Karasuma tribe, and only by using the Louban can we stabilize the hearts of the Karasuma people!" ”

"The minister has been taught!"

Zhuge Jin bowed his head and said respectfully.

"King!"

At this time. Lei Ding opened the door of the big tent, walked in, and arched his hand: "Lou Ban said that the Karasuma tribe has a gift and wants to contribute to the king, please go to the pasture!" ”

"Ranch?"

Sun Quan heard this. stood up, smiled slightly, walked out, and said as he walked: "Ziyu, go and see what kind of gift the building class can give to Lonely?" ”

"No!"

Zhuge Jin nodded, quickly stood up, and followed behind Sun Quan.

The Karasuma tribe lives as nomads, but it's not just the Karasuma tribe. All grassland races, including the Xianbei and Xiongnu, basically survived by shepherding sheep and horses.

They basically exchanged the production of sheepskins, goat's milk and strong horses for the grain of the Central Plains.

Of course, every year, they don't have enough food to survive the winter.

Winter on the steppe is very difficult, people starve to death and freeze to death. Countless, in order to save a mouthful of food. Sometimes the old steppe people will go into the depths of the grassland and wait to die.

This is why, as long as it is winter, the nomads will go out one by one and send troops south to plunder the Central Plains.

In these days, it's good to be ambitious. Whether you are wild or willing to give your life to fight, nine out of ten of them are just for a full meal.

Karasuma Ranch is on the east side and is a large grassland. With layers of wooden fences on all sides and a sheepfold on the left, this year has been an eventful year for the Karasuma people, and this season, there are not many sheep left.

In the entire sheepfold, there are scattered and scattered, and there are only a thousand sheep, which seems to be a lot, but with the current more than 100,000 people in the Karasuma tribe, if you want to rely on them to survive the winter, at least half of the Karasuma people will starve to death.

On the right is a large horse farm.

In the horse farm, the horses were neighing.

Karasuma war horses are considered to be first-class war horses on the grassland, and the war horses in Liaodong and Youzhou generally come from the war horses raised by the Karasuma tribe.

At its peak, there were tens of thousands of war horses in this horse farm, but when it first went south, it had been equipped with a lot of cavalry, and now there are not many left, and only a few hundred war horses were born in the entire horse farm.

"King!"

Before the ranch, Lou Ban with more than a dozen Karasuma leaders had been waiting for a long time, and when he saw Sun Quan, he saluted very respectfully.

"Lou Ban, you said that you have a gift for Lone, let's hear it!"

Sun Quan took his own soldiers and strode over.

"It is our honor for the king to come to the Karasuma tribe in person, but our Karasuma tribe is very poor, and there is nothing to welcome the king, and the only thing that can show his hand is the war horse!"

Lou Ban clapped his hands, and several Karasuma people pulled one black and one white, two war horses, and walked out.

"Good horse?" Sun Quan's eyes lit up slightly, and he landed on the two horses.

"King, these are the two best war horses of our tribe, the white horse on the left is a wild horse that Badun tamed from the depths of the savannah last year, in order to tame him, Badun injured a lot of Karasuma warriors, this is definitely a BMW that travels thousands of miles in a day and eight hundred in the night!"

"On the right is the black horse, at the beginning of this year, we exchanged a war horse from the Huns, originally intended to be a stallion, it was born in Dawan horse, it is rumored to be the mating of lions and Dawan horses, the combat effectiveness is soaring, full of fierceness, no one in our tribe can tame it!"

Lou Ban gave Sun Quan a detailed introduction to the origin of these two horses.

"Lone doesn't seem to have found a BMW that can be compared to Wu Hu over the years, Lou Ban, this gift, Lone likes it!"

Sun Quan walked up and patted the heads of the two horses, which were fierce and gave him a long song, but the birds did not bird him, but he was a little happy with the two majestic horses.

An excellent military general has a war horse of his own, Sun Quan is not an excellent military general, but he is also a battlefield general, he has always wanted a war horse of his own.

But he has a higher vision.

In his opinion, if he can't find a BMW that is side by side with Wu Qi, it is useless to find it.

"If the king likes it, it's fine!"

Lou Ban and the group of Karasuma leaders breathed a sigh of relief.

"Lei Ding, tell me, these two horses, which one is good?"

Sun Quan didn't have much kung fu with horses, he looked at the two horses on the left and right carefully, and asked Lei Ding. (To be continued......)
