Chapter 167: Temporary cramming
Just when people were celebrating the festival, the new county magistrate of Cangsong County also quietly and hurriedly took office, but most people were not very clear, even Li Mingyuan did not take it to heart, but planned to finish this period of time, and when he had the opportunity, he would visit the new county magistrate, after all, he was a parent official, and he was a businessman, so there were still many places to use it.
The Han people here are lively and lively for the New Year, and the Huns in the grassland are also not stopping. In response to the extermination case of the Right Virtuous King Uwei Department, rumors spread throughout the grassland, and there was a deep gap between the tribes that were not very close. The Xiongnu fell into a crisis rarely seen in a century.
Compared with the Turkic people who crisscrossed the north, the Huns were actually relatively civilized, at least not outright barbaric. The history of the Xiongnu can be said to be longer than that of the Dahua Dynasty. Compared with the dynasties of the Central Plains, although the Xiongnu tribe has had several ups and downs in history, it still persists to this day and has successfully developed and grown, which also has the credit of the Han people.
In history, whether it is the Great Qin Empire or the Great Han Empire, they have waged wars against the Xiongnu tribes more than once. When the Han people were strong, they often lost their armor and abandoned their armor when they were fighting, and the number of people decreased sharply, making it difficult to pose a danger to the border passes. But no dynasty was able to completely wipe out the Xiongnu race. No dynasty can prosper forever, and every time a dynasty reaches the end of the world, it gives the steppe tribes a time to breathe and develop. Therefore, the Huns are like weeds, wildfires are inexhaustible, and the spring breeze blows and grows!
Not only that, but many dynasties had to marry the Xiongnu tribes in exchange for border peace in order to weigh the interests of all aspects, even the mighty Han Empire had done it! But marriage is not just as simple as marrying a woman in humiliation. Along with the introduction of the Xiongnu tribe, there are also various civilization techniques of the Han people, agricultural mulberry, medical skills, etc., which have played a great role in the survival of the Xiongnu people in the harsh environment, and also brought a lot of disasters to the Han people.
Of course, marriage is not only a bad thing, but also has a good side. After so many years of development, the Xiongnu with Han blood have formed a small tribe within the Xiongnu, they are all descendants of Wang Zhaojun, and their ancestors are also the royal family of the Xiongnu.
Now the patriarch of this tribe is called Han Yuanhao, and compared with other Huns who are short and stout, with a large and round head, a broad face, high cheekbones, a wide nose, a thick beard, and only a small stiff beard under the collar, long earlobes with holes, and an earring, he looks like a pure Han Chinese.
Because he received a Sinicized education, Han Yuanhao has been yearning for the Han society in Yumen Pass since he was a child. He felt that the people there were kind and simple, and everyone loved learning. Unlike the people in the tribe, they are selfish and greedy, have developed limbs, are simple-minded, and do things without using their brains. Because of this, after Han Yuanhao became the patriarch, he vigorously developed farming, grazing cattle and sheep on the grassland, and planting in spring and harvesting in autumn, so that the clansmen could live a life without looting and worry-free food and clothing, so Han Yuanhao had a high status among the clansmen.
However, despite Han Yuanhao's success, his actions were undoubtedly incompatible with the ancient traditions of the Xiongnu. There are many Xiongnu diehards who think that Han Yuanhao is a complete coward, even more cowardly than Uwei, who can only farm and has no courage. However, they were dissatisfied, but they didn't dare to really do anything to Han Yuanhao, after all, his tribe is now strong and strong, and they are united in their hearts.
The attack on the Uwei tribe this time made Han Yuanhao feel a sense of schadenfreude. He thinks that all this is karma, who made you Uvi like to burn and loot, what, now you are dumbfounded, trouble will come to you one day. The Han people say that they often walk by the river, how can they not get their shoes wet!
Although it was a very painful loss for Uwe to lose a tribe of his own, it could be regarded as a good thing for the patriarchs of many large and medium-sized tribes below. Because many small tribes have chosen to move around large and medium-sized tribes out of fear or other reasons, or directly seek the protection of large and medium-sized tribes, many tribes have indirectly become much stronger and more prosperous.
But in this way, some greedy and unbridled patriarchs of large tribes will naturally find ways to squeeze out the oil and water of small tribes, or simply find ways to annex small tribes, which makes many people of small tribes feel terrified. But Han Yuanhao's tribe showed quite a lot of grace, as long as they came to join him, or sought their own protection, they were allowed to camp around their tribe, as long as they didn't cause trouble, and they were also allowed to trade with each other. It's a paradise entirely!
The crisis that swept the Xiongnu this time gave Han Yuanhao a chance to develop and grow, and also made the three major tribes of the Xiongnu sharp, and began to conflict constantly for their own small calculations. The grassland was filled with the smell of gunpowder.
After the first year in this world, Li Mingyuan began to study hard behind closed doors. The township test is approaching, and it is time for Li Mingyuan to hold on to his feet. Although it is not very useful to crammed Buddha's feet temporarily. But it's good to grind the gun, and it's not fast. In line with this principle, Li Mingyuan began a career of struggle with his head hanging on the beam.
I have to say that reading is indeed a technical job, not to mention hard work, but also reading and reading to dry mouth, and then you have to keep drinking water, you have to go to the toilet when you drink water, you will be upset when you go to the toilet, and you have to take time to calm down when you are upset.
"Read, read, read, free gold house in the book, read, read, there is Yan Ruyu in the book! Nima, who said this, find out and Lao Tzu promises not to kill you! Li Mingyuan was upset by Xie Xian's notes, and he felt unspeakable pain.
At this time, it is the first month, and everything is so beautiful and full of vitality. The Hou Mansion is also happy and peaceful, anyway, there will be no work, everyone chats and brags in groups of melon seeds. Even Qiu Zhu was called to xia backgammon by the little sisters. Li Mingyuan was the only one left in the empty courtyard, which made him even more restless by nature.
"I'm a little bird, I want to fly, but I can't fly high!" Li Mingyuan flipped through Xie Xian's notes while humming about the community. No one hears it anyway, so they sing whatever comes to mind!
"Brother Li, something happened, it's not good!" Before he finished drinking, Gao Zhiming rushed over from a distance, with a panicked look on his face.
