As soon as Childe heard Chen Yuan greet him, he immediately ran over: "Master Horse." Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

The surrounding generals were all a little stunned when they saw that Chen Yuan had recruited such a guy of an alien race. I only heard Chen Yuan introduce to them: "Everyone, this is an envoy from Rome far away, that is, the former Great Qin. ”

Di Qing was taken aback when he heard this: "Great Qin? That's a long way to go, the last time their envoy came to us, it was the Tang Dynasty, and I heard that it took nearly ten years along the way. ”

During the Tang Dynasty, the rise of the Arab Empire interrupted the Silk Road. If the Romans wanted to get the silk of the Song Dynasty, they had to go through the Arab Empire, and the Arabs did business very darkly, and the black Romans could not accept that price.

Later, they sent a few people to the Tang Dynasty to learn the technique of silk, starting with silkworm raising. Those people traveled through Arabia by land, and when they returned after completing their studies, the young men who had come to the Tang Dynasty had become old men. But they did make it possible for the Romans to weave silk themselves.

Of course, Childe knew about such a great feat, and Childe immediately said: "Back to this general, I have also walked for more than a year this time, if it is not for the sea route, and someone is pointing the way, I think it should still be on the way." ”

Chen Yuan smiled: "Let's get to know each other, we will cooperate in the future, if we can, I think we will also have the opportunity to go to Daqin." ”

He said it very casually, but Di Qing and the others felt another message that Chen Yuan conveyed to them when they heard it. They might have a chance to go to Daqin in the future? This means that the army will still be useful in the future, which really reassures these generals a lot.

What the generals needed was a battlefield, and as the affairs of the Liao Kingdom were about to be decided, all of them were a little worried, worried that the swords in their hands would be put away by those scholars. Chen Yuan's words obviously made them let go of some of the baggage in their hearts.

Liu Ping stepped forward and asked, "Master Horse, how many cavalry did the emperor send to us?" ”

One of the most important reasons why the Liao State has been able to drag on until now is that the cavalry of the Song Dynasty did not have the ability to march into the grassland. Renzong had already formed cavalry on a large scale, although it was said that because of the Uighurs' asking price, many war horses were not in place, but the war horses transported from other places had given the cavalry of the Song Dynasty a certain size, such as Mongolia and Tibet.

In Di Qing's opinion, Chen Yuan would definitely bring enough cavalry when he came out, because this was a necessary condition for solving the Liao problem. Chen Yuan heard Liu Ping ask him like this, and smiled mysteriously: "When we finish eating, let's go into the house and talk." ”

Renzong prepared 150,000 cavalry for Chen Yuan's military campaign in Liao this time, but these fifteen people are just a number, they have not yet come, and they have not even determined the establishment and generals. This surprised Di Qing and the others, in their opinion, without cavalry, there was no way to fight this battle.

They had no choice, but Chen Yuan did. This time he brought more than 20 of the best painters from the Great Song Dynasty, as well as a set of the most advanced printing equipment that is now available. On the second day after he came to Zhongjing, Chen Yuan found some people from Liao and asked them to tell them about their miserable situation in Liao, and then those painters used the best possible concise method to draw the descriptions of these people, and then printed them on paper so that people could understand them at a glance.

In the end, those caravans brought these papers into the Liao Kingdom and quietly sprinkled them among the people.

Through this channel, and everything else that can be used, Chen Yuan will send a message to the people who are now living under the notice of Yelu Neghulu, that they are living in dire straits. And the only way to get out of this life is to get rid of the rule of the present Jerunegoru.

These things, or even more not, were introduced to the Liao State after Chen Yuan's rendering, and they all had a common effect, that is, to slander the image of Yelu Nie Gollum, so that the Liao people unconsciously felt that it was not the Song people who made their lives so difficult now.

It is because of the existence of Yelune that the war still has to continue, and it is also because of the existence of Yerune Gollum that the surrounding countries are their enemies.

Before Chen Yuan arrived in Zhongjing, Yelu Gollum knew that Chen Shimei was coming again, but he didn't care. Yelu Gollum thought that he had clearly seen Chen Yuan's methods, which was nothing more than economic strangulation and military pressure step by step, Li Yuanhao was like this at the beginning, he thought that he had learned his lesson.

So when the rumors first came in, he was not much alert, and in Yelu Neghulu's opinion, although the Khitans are now difficult, they are relatively united. Moreover, in terms of the economy, he learned the lesson of being an option, and did not let the economic state deteriorate from the beginning.

There is also the army of the Liao State, the focus of Yelu Negrune is on the army, he believes that as long as the 400,000 cavalry are still there, Chen Shimei wants to swallow himself in one bite, even if he does it, he will lose a few of his front teeth.

Jermane Gollum was still walking at his own pace. Now that the situation in the Liao court was much better, he carried out a purge for the first time under the pretext of executing officials who had behaved badly during the Song attack. Later, after being rescued in Xiao Tatar, he had a second excuse, and he cleaned it twice, and now the court is much more stable.

What's more, this year's winter has already passed, although it is said that many people have died, but after all, spring has begun, and the grass on the field has begun to green again, which also means that the hope of the Liao State has arrived.

The question discussed today in the Liao court is whether the regulations should be relaxed a little so that residents can have their own food.

Because now they are left with grasslands, grazing has become their main way of life. If Yelune also imposes a high-pressure notice to withhold the food and livestock of those situations, then there is no hope for next year.

Jerne Gollum also knew that this situation had to end, and that the herders had to go and herd their herds. It's just that how much each person gives them is something that needs to be discussed.

The court discussed it for a long time, but there was no result, whether it was Hou Xi or Yelu Hanba, their talent for governing the country could only be reflected in the prosperous period of Liao Xingzong. Like that kind of character who can turn the tide of the tide, Liao State is very lacking.

This is also the biggest headache for Yerune Gollum right now. There was no result discussed in the morning, and after the dispersal of the dynasty, Yelu Nie Gulu asked Hou Sha and Yelu Hanba to come to his study together and continue to discuss this issue.

In terms of ability alone, Yelu Gollum was an excellent emperor, and his vigorous and resolute methods were much better than Yelu Hongji. And he is not extravagant, not extravagant. After moving into the palace, he dismissed the already small palace people, and there were not many left.

Even half of the palace was vacated as an office space, and there were only two dishes to eat in each day, and even when money was the most difficult for a period of time, Yelu Nianglu himself took the lead in eating only two meals a day.

Whether it is Yelu Hanba or Hou Xi, they all believe now that if Liao Xingzong handed over the position to Yelu Nei Gulu immediately after his death, the situation in Liao State would definitely not be what it is today.

Now it is useless to say this, they can only hope that Yelu Negolu can lead the Khitan people out of the current predicament.

"Two adults, today's deregulation must be carried out quickly, because we don't have much time now, I believe the two adults also know that Chen Shimei is back again, this kid is the opponent I am most worried about."

When Yelune said Chen Yuan, his eyes shone with a fine light, obviously inspired by the fighting spirit in his heart.

Hou Xi sat on the chair and said: "Long live don't worry, that Chen Shimei is just a trick to spread rumors and make trouble now, as long as I don't take him seriously, I will naturally break myself." ”

Another reason why Hou Sun is optimistic about Yelu Gollum is because of his casualness. Except in the court, when they talked in private, Yelu Gollum always didn't care about those etiquette.

Yelu Hanba next to him had a different opinion of Hou Sun, he thought for a while and said: "Long live, Chen Shimei likes to use some sideways methods, the defeat of Li Yuanhao, the party item, is a lesson for us, no matter what his means, we must be careful to put it down." ”

Jerüne grunted, "Lift? How to lift and release? The most important thing for us now is to take this breath first. Winter has passed, if the Song Dynasty can give me another half a year to wait for the sheep and horses to become strong, it will not be so easy for Chen Shimei and Di Qing to defeat us! ”

In Jermane's opinion, the most important thing now is to catch your breath. It was not unaware that those caravans and the Song people contacted him again, and it was not unaware that many Liao people were fleeing to him. But he didn't stop this at all, all in order to ease his strength. At this time, even if Chen Yuan made some small moves, Yelu Gollum would ignore it.

Yelu Hanba wanted to say anything more, but was stopped by Yelu Ne Guru: "Don't think about this now, you first help me find a way to let our herdsmen have cattle and sheep to graze." ”

Returning to the topic of discussion in the court, Yelu Hanba and Hou Sha were silent. I haven't come up with a solution that I have been thinking about all morning, where will it be now?

According to the statistics of Yelu Negulu, the Liao State now does not include war horses, there are more than 4 million cattle, sheep and horses, and nearly one million herdsmen, that is, if you want to distribute the heads, each person can only receive four livestock. That's not enough for a herder family.

Therefore, it can only be grazed intensively. However, concentrated grazing is destined to have many people with nothing to do, and Yelu Hanba and Hou Sha have no good way.

After thinking for a while, Hou Tan looked at the color of Yelu Ne's purr: "Long live, I think, Zhang Li can get along with each other." ”

"Zhang Li?" Jerynne grunted the name, her brow furrowed.

He also knew Zhang Li's ability, when Liao Xingzong was alive, Zhang Li was an important minister. Whenever Liao Xingzong has a problem that cannot be solved, he will always be the first to ask Zhang Li.

But now Zhang Li is in the prison, and he is locked up in the prison by Yelu Nianglu. When Zhang Li came back from the Great Song Dynasty and saw Xiao Tali, he already regarded himself as an enemy in his heart, and it seemed a little impossible for him to help him as an enemy in this life.
