Section 1263 Upper Valley

Upper Valley County, County Office, Fuyang City. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

As usual, Thorn Wu took the officials and inspected the market of Fuyang City.

Along the way, an unknown number of people and merchants stood on both sides of the road and bowed their heads.

But Thorn Wu was very unhappy.

Did he even come to the wrong place himself?

Thorn Wu's grandfather, Jing Hou Thorn Chi, is Emperor Gao's Conglong Father!

Since Emperor Gao's White Snake Rebellion, he has been serving by Emperor Gao's side, and then he has never given up, following Emperor Gao, conquering the world, and fighting all parties.

I have experienced success, but I have also tasted failure.

But it may be because the combat level is really not good, so this position has not been promoted.

When Han Xin came to vote for Emperor Gao, his grandfather was already Lian Ao (Note 1).

Even, the two have drunk together.

Can......

When Han Xin climbed to the position of King of Qi, he was still ......

It's embarrassing!

Fortunately, Emperor Gao was affectionate and righteous, and saw that the old brothers had been mixed for more than ten years, but they had not been able to get along, and now the Han Empire has also been established.

Therefore, he raised his grandfather's hand and was promoted to the rank of captain.

Then, Zhou Bo also felt that the old brother needed to pull a hand.

Therefore, when Lu Juan rebelled and Zhou Bo went out to fight, he brought his grandfather with him.

Then, Thorn Wu's grandfather followed Zhou Bo and routed the last of Lu Xuan's army and drove them out of the Great Wall not far from the city.

Because of this incident, Jianwu's grandfather was named boiled jujube Hou, although there are only 900 households in Shiyi, but he is also a liehou!

But......

Today, Thorn Wu is troubled by this.

The reason is simple, the princes always mock him with his title.

"When will you be able to lead your troops into battle and fight with the Huns?" Thorn Wu thought to himself. But then he laughed at himself again: "Maybe I can't help it......"

Originally, when he was appointed as the county punctual of Ueya, he was ambitious and wanted to make a contribution.

But......

After he arrived, he found out that in fact, he had nothing to do with the military affairs of Shanggu County.

Guan He, the general of the Lou Fu Army, was the highest-ranking officer in Shanggu County.

Moreover, the Huns behind the border wall of Shanggu County were either cowards or poor bastards.

Not to mention having the guts to attack Upper Valley.

Even there are few people who dare to provoke!

On the contrary, every autumn and winter, a large number of Xiongnu escaped slaves and fled into the Great Wall, giving the Han people slaves as slaves, just begging for a bite to eat.

Even, many Xiongnu tribes were engaged in population trade with the landlords and gentry of Shanggu County - the Battle of Mayi and the Battle of Gaoque, which caused the Huns' animal husbandry in Munan to suffer a heavy blow!

In particular, in the Battle of Mayi, the Han army raided Nanchi and captured millions of livestock.

This is equivalent to the Han army robbing the Xiongnu of the Sanhe region at one time.

Those big tribes might be better.

But small and medium-sized tribes, especially those in the east and north-east, are almost all short of food.

Therefore, in desperation, the Huns could only sell their herdsmen to the landlords and gentry of the Han family in exchange for grain, livestock, and cheese.

Even, from time to time, there are some small tribes who are oppressed by the Huns who really can't survive, drag their families and bring their mouths, and come to vote as a whole.

The building annoyance relies on this business, and it makes a lot of money, not to mention how comfortable it is to live a small life!

Even the Wusun people are gradually content with the status quo.

The animal husbandry that these Hu people engaged in in Zaoyang County and Shibi County greatly enriched the economy of Shanggu County.

Nowadays, on the market of Fuyang City, you can often see those wearing Han costumes, but at a glance, you can see that it is the Hu people's Loufu Hu Qi and Wusun Hu Qi, leading their livestock or calves and foals to sell in the market.

The price is quite cheap!

The price of a calf and a foal is at least half cheaper than that of Chang'an, that is, at least one-third cheaper than that of Taiyuan.

Moreover, the herding and tending skills of the Wusun people and Lou are good, so the calves and foals that are taken out are very good.

If you buy it back, as long as you take care of it a little and train it, it will be a good ploughing cow or a horse, and even, maybe you can win the jackpot and can be used as a war horse, then it will be developed!

Therefore, businessmen from all over the world came one after another.

Since King Yan Zhao established Shanggu County, this border county has never been as prosperous as it is today.

Merchants from afar brought fine silk, porcelain, books, and other daily necessities in exchange for livestock, cheese, and furs, which were the specialties of the valley county, and some even became human traffickers.

Those Hun slaves and maids were taken by them and resold to all parts of the world.

Who said that today's landlords and gentry don't like to use it and can't afford it, let alone use Han slaves!

Using Han people as slaves will not only be criticized by Shilin public opinion, saying that he 'does not love siblings' and 'not a gentleman's trip', but also has to pay a high amount of hand-to-hand taxes!

So, a lot of people have had to change their behavior.

For example, to give freedom to the Han slaves and maids in their name - and then sign a contract with them for 50 years......

In this way, risks can be avoided.

However, the best way is to try to use Yidi as a slave.

Not only cheap, but also safe, and most importantly, light burden - the mouth of the Yidi slave maid is only one-fifth of that of the Han slave maid.

As a result, the market in Kamiya-gun has become more and more prosperous as these commercial activities have become more frequent.

But the more this happened, the more unhappy Thorn Wu became.

He's here to fight!

I'm not here to be an arbitrator for businessmen, people, mud legs!

If you don't fight, you won't have military merits, and if you don't have military merits, you can't take off your title of boiled jujube......

"Why don't the Huns come to my valley?" As usual, after inspecting the entire city of Fuyang, Thorn Wu, who had returned to the county to guard the yamen, looked at the hall of the yamen and shook his head and sighed.

In order to win the position of the county guard of Upper Valley, he gave everything he had!

not only begged Prime Minister Zhou Yafu for three days and three nights, but also used the many favors of his grandfather and father to lobby and persuade those possible potential competitors.

Even for this reason, he married his baby daughter to the son of Fuyang Hou Chen Jia, which only got this position.

But in the past two years, he has been in Shanggu County, not to mention the Hun cavalry who have entered the Kou.

Even those who dare to provoke have never seen it.

When Jian Wuzheng shook his head and sighed, his cronies and retainers came over and bowed: "Lord, General Guan is here, and he is waiting in the side hall, it is said that there is an urgent matter......

"What's the urgency?" Thorn Wu asked weakly, he felt that if he didn't fight, he would die!

"It is said that there is an emergency military intelligence briefing!"

"What?" Thorn Wu suddenly became energetic.

There is a battle, for the Han family's princes and county guards, it is simply a sound of heaven!

No matter where the war takes place, how many enemies there are.

As long as there is a fight!

…………………………………………

Half an hour later, Jian Wu personally opened the door of the county guard yamen and bid farewell to Guan He.

Then, he took the officials and personally beat the big drum set up in front of the county guard's yamen.

"Knock knock!" The sound of drums spread throughout the county.

Almost everyone can hear it.

Then, the entire Frustrated Yang City was boiling!

Because everyone knows what it means that big drum in front of the county guard is beaten?

It means that the county guards the soldiers and mobilizes the whole county!

All men over the age of 23 and under the age of 40 should immediately bring their own bows and arrows, weapons, and dry rations, and report to the nearest local barracks under the organization of the local pavilion chief!

And such mobilization has always been a signal for war!

And it's a signal for a big war!

It was only for a moment of astonishment that the parts of the entire city's war machine began to work.

First of all, it starts from the Lizheng of Luli.

In the middle of each street in Fuyang City, there is a warehouse propped up with a tripod.

After hearing the sound of drums, the local Li Zheng immediately rushed over from their homes, and then they opened the warehouse one after another, revealing a mountain of various weapons inside.

There are all kinds of bronze spears, halberds, bows, crossbows and arrows eliminated by the Han army.

These are all weapons that have been eliminated from the county soldiers of Shanggu County four years later, and then placed in these Lu.

Many weapons, even if they are very well maintained, are still brand new and as sharp as ever!

Then, these equipment were distributed to qualified men in Lu by the Li Zheng.

The so-called qualified man refers to a young man who has enlisted in the military and is in good health.

Then one by one Shiwu was formed in each of them.

These frustrated people, led by the Li Zheng, lined up and walked to the place where the arsenal and martial arts exercise place in the city were located.

At the same time, at the gate of Fuyang City, a herald with arrows on his back rushed away and ran to the three governors of Shanggu County.

In the afternoon of the same day, all three commanders received orders, and then every village and village pavilion was mobilized.

In less than two days, the entire Shanggu was completely soldiered.

The number of troops has skyrocketed from only 4,000 before mobilization to 23,000!

Of these, at least 10,000 have military experience!

But that's not the point, the point is that those places are strong!

There are 16 counties in Kamiya County, with a population of about 400,000.

On average, there are at least three large landowners in each county, which is known in the world as Haoqiang.

These heroes occupy a vast area.

Basically, the tenants are hundreds!

Even in the past, these heroes were also an important combat force on the side of the Han Dynasty!

As for today......

Benefit from the Fake Horse Order and the Northland Knights policy.

Groups of cavalry began to arm themselves in these powerful mansions.

Then, under the leadership of Haoqiang's sons, they gathered towards Fuyang.

In just three days, more than eighty percent of the heroes in the entire Shanggu County rushed to Fuyang with their own soldiers.

And the cavalry they brought with them added up to a thousand horses!

Enough to form a standard Han cavalry lieutenant department!

What's even more terrifying is that these cavalry, everyone has a high fighting spirit, morale is boiling, and the saddle horses are ready!

Don't underestimate these cavalry, thinking that they haven't been run-in, but they are just a rabble.

In the past history, the Huns often suffered under them!

And in history, these powerful people eventually evolved into the military aristocracy of the north, active and influential for a thousand years!

At their peak, they can even decide the succession and rise and fall of dynasties!

Nowadays, they are not so awesome though.

However, it has already begun to emerge.

Standing at the head of the city, he looked at these militiamen who came from all directions, proudly holding his beard, and praised: "With this army's heart and public opinion, if the Huns don't come, they will follow the mistakes of Mayi!" ”

…………………………………………

But until now, most of the militia still don't know what's going on.

So all kinds of voices are circulating in the barracks.

Many people said conclusively: "Your Majesty must have foreseen once again that the Huns would enter the valley!" ”

Then, the people around nodded in agreement.

Today, it is not the first time that the invasion of the Huns has been accurately foreseen.

The Battle of Mayi was just the beginning.

Last year's Battle of Anton, which forced the landing of the Xiongnu Youxian King, was a peak.

Countless people believed and acquiesced that the Son of Heaven must know something, so they gave the order to Shanggu.

Otherwise, how dare the county guard mobilize the whole county?

As long as the militia thinks that the Son of Heaven has already foreseen the invasion of the Huns, then I am afraid that the Juzhu Army, the Flying Fox Army, the Xiliu Battalion, and even the Son of Heaven's personal guards Hu Benwei and Yu Linwei may already be on the way to help, so the mood of the big guy is much lighter.

With these trump cards to help, the Huns must be the same as the battle of Mayi, and they don't know how to die!

And the big guys can take the opportunity to make a lot of military merit!

Especially the heroes, everyone is surging and difficult to restrain themselves!

Because, today, it is no longer just a son of heaven who holds the right to kill and wields the authority of the rich and the poor.

He has now stretched out his hands to the underworld, to the nine heavens, and can seal the gods on behalf of the heavens!

He was born as a hero, and died as a ghost.

This is the highest pursuit of the Han scholars and nobles!

Therefore, everyone inspired their children and said, "Wait until you kill the thief, don't worry about your home!" ”

And the young people bowed one after another: "The adults teach, the children know that this trip will not dare to insult the family style!" ”

………………………………

But in the shop of a merchant in Fuyang City, several Huns who disguised themselves as fugitive slaves looked at each other and even trembled.

"How did the people of the Han Dynasty react so quickly?" The Huns at the head almost cried and said: "How is this good......"

The others were all disgraced.

No matter how they thought about it, how did the people of the Han Dynasty know about their such secret actions?

It must be known that in this southern invasion, in order to ensure that they were not detected by the Han Dynasty, the main force of the Xiongnu deliberately assembled in the hinterland of the grassland, and then sprinkled countless scouts and spies to intercept all people and things that might reveal their whereabouts.

But Na Cheng thought that he was still noticed by the Han Dynasty, and mobilized before the Huns attacked.

And that's not even the scariest of all!

The scariest thing is......

I'm afraid that the building is annoying, it will be a big trap!

As long as they think of this, these Huns almost want to die!

Because they knew that once Lou Nuren did not suddenly rebel, then the invading Hun cavalry might be in great trouble!
