A series of major events that happened in Jizhou, Lu Bu was outside Yanmen Pass, except for paying attention, he couldn't intervene for a while.

He was very busy during this time, and he defeated Budugen and Fu Luohan one after another, which can be described as fast, and the next thing to pick up the spoils of war was pain and happiness.

As soon as the Xianbei tribes scattered in the northern land of Yanmen, Dingxiang, and Daijun received the news of the defeat of the army, of course they would not wait in place stupidly, but immediately mobilized the whole clan, rolled up tents, drove cattle, sheep and horses, and returned to the north.

What Lu Bu has to do is to intercept these loots before they run away.

The savings and treasures of Fu Luo Han and other marshals, as well as cattle, sheep and horses, are all very direct wealth, that is, those people in the Xianbei tribe, although they all have a strong hostility towards the Han people, Lu Bu still equates them with wealth.

Previously, he discussed with Jia Xu and determined the strategy against Xianbei, which was summarized in five words, that is, assimilation, enslavement, and killing.

Assimilation is to select those tribes that are intentionally attached but do not have much ambition, treat them as vassals, and assimilate the people with heads and faces in the tribe by various means.

For example, the children of their families are settled in Jinyang, the education of the Han people is imposed, such as the comfortable and luxurious life, the fighting spirit of the influential people of the tribe, and so on, anyway, it is two words, for the older generation, corrupt, for the new generation, assimilation, so that the new generation from an early age, recognize the culture and lifestyle of the Han people, so that after two or three generations of efforts, these grassland tribes can be melted into the Han ethnic group.

Slavery, on the other hand, was directed at those tribes who did not want to be attached, and after defeat, they were treated two levels lower than those who depended, and all property was completely deprived as spoils of war. Men, women, and children were all directly turned into slavery.

However, Lu Bu's policy is not to make them slaves for generations, but to have a gentle change, after all, he comes from later generations, and knows a lot of bad things that cannot be done, and he understands that where there is oppression, there is resistance, so let these enslaved tribes see a glimmer of hope, and make them willing to fight for this glimmer of hope. And work hard.

Although these hopes may only be fulfilled in their descendants, they are better than the utter darkness of despair.

As for killing, it's even simpler, it's people like Fu Luohan. And people like Kebineng, and the grassland in the future. Those who have risen like sandalwood locusts. You must find a way to kill it without mercy.

In this way, the release can ensure that the wolves on the grassland have no wolf or even the existence of the wolf king, so that they have always maintained a plate of loose sand. A state of biting each other.

Just when Yuan Shao was busy planning to seize the territory of Jizhou Mu Han Fu and was busy accepting Han Fu's subordinates and territory in full, Lu Bu was outside Yanmen Pass, and it didn't seem urgent to be busy with these. But it's actually an extremely important thing.

It only took two months to send troops to Yanmen Pass and defeat Budugen and Fu Luohan, but these big and small trivial matters, Lu Bu himself estimated, will be busy at least until the end of the year, and it will come to an end for the time being, as for the complete digestion of the ranches outside Yanmen Pass, Dingxiang, and Daijun, it will take a longer time, maybe three years, maybe five years.

In the blink of an eye, the grass on the grassland has begun to gradually wither yellow, flocks of geese, began to fly south, in this autumn season, Lu Bu with three hundred guards, left Pingcheng, rushed back to the Yin Pavilion outside the Yanmen Pass, and greeted the Empress Dowager He and her party who were about to drive outside the Saiwai.

Jia Xu still stayed in Taiyuan, and the governor merged with state affairs, while Xu Shu was left in Pingcheng by Lu Bu to coordinate the affairs of Saiwai, and through Youzhou, closely probed the situation in Jizhou, and watched the battle between Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shao.

In the early morning, the first rays of golden sunlight just emerged from the top of the Gouzhu Mountain where the Yanmen Pass is located, Lu Bu personally led three hundred fierce guards, waiting at the foot of the mountain that was only ten miles away from the Yanmen Pass.

Hongnong Wang Liu Wei was originally going to come, but ten days before leaving, he was greedy for fun at night, infected with wind and cold, and only got better a few days ago, so he could only stay in Jinyang to recuperate.

Empress Dowager He's identity has not been disclosed at this time, so this convoy is actually led by Lu Bu's wife, the Yan family, including Diao Chan, as well as Cai Yong and Cai Yan and other family members, Qiao Mao, the clan brother Qiao Yu and his family members who arrived in Taiyuan not long ago, and the family members of Zhang Liao, Cao Xing, Song Xian and other generals who were still running around on the prairie at this time.

To put it bluntly, this is a group of relatives and friends who came to the Saiwai grassland to travel and relax, and it is very large-scale, which can be described as vast.

When the convoy arrived at the grassland, Lu Bu let go of the reins of the horse, the red rabbit horse roared in a low voice, spread its four hooves, and stepped forward, and after seeing Cai Yong, Qiao Mao, and Qiao Yu, he galloped directly to the heavily guarded female convoy, followed the guidance, and came to the carriage where the Empress Dowager He was riding.

The people around were far away, and Lu Bu was right on the horse and whispered: "Minister, Lu Bu, knock on the Queen Mother, Chitose Chitose Chitose Chitose." ”

There was a chuckle in the car, and then the curtain slowly opened, revealing the pretty face of the Empress Dowager He, whose eyes flowed, fell on the heroic and extraordinary Lu Bu, lightly opened the cherry lips, and the voice was like a yellow bird's crisp chirping, and said: "Lu Qing has worked hard, there are many people on the road, and there is no need for many etiquette." Here, is the prairie? ”

Lu Bu nodded and chuckled, and responded: "This place has just come out of Yanmen Pass, it is the edge of the grassland, and General Bu will escort the convoy to Pingcheng, which is the hinterland of the grassland. ”

After a simple greeting, Lu Buzaijian passed Yan and Minchan, and the convoy slowly started again and headed for the depths of the grassland.

Lu Bu is still the first time to see Qiao Yu, after many conversations, I found that he has an active mind, a flexible person, many ideas, and the mainstream of the world is quite incompatible, and more importantly, he has his own views on business.

In the past few days, he has been walking all the way, in addition to occasionally going to the Empress Dowager He to flatter, he has talked with Cai Yong, Qiao Mao, and Qiao Yu, and with the deepening of his understanding, a not very mature idea in his heart has gradually surfaced.

He was ready to entrust the financial power to Qiao Yu to preside, and hand over the tax affairs to Qiao Mao to preside.

That night, the full moon was in the sky, the moon was bright and the stars were scarce, and the tents on the ground were continuous. Bonfires are lit everywhere, and the whole lamb roasted gives off an incomparably attractive fragrance, drifting away into the distance with the night breeze.

The ladies were not tolerant of wind and cold, and they all hid in the camp tent, Lu Bu took matters into his own hands, and after roasting a fat sheep, he cut the most tender and delicious front leg into several large pieces, and then carefully cut them into small pieces. confessed to Cai Yong and the others, personally carried it, and entered the tent with a group of maidservants.

The tent was very large, and there were those who stayed in it. But they are all beauties, and Cai Yan is concentrating on stroking the piano there. Ten fingers as delicate as green onions. The dexterous round dance, strings of notes flowing from her fingertips, is particularly fresh and beautiful.

The tent was very quiet, only the sound of the piano lingered, Empress Dowager He's maid Qin'er, and Lu Bu's concubine Minchan. was looking at Cai Yan with reverence, as for Empress Dowager He and Yan and others, they were all fascinated by it.

Lu Bu held the food box with the lid in his hand, after entering the account. Standing quietly aside, although his head did not turn, a pair of eyes, but he had swept the situation in the tent, Empress Dowager He and the others did not say, he was very familiar with it, and there were two other girls, it was Qiao Yu's two younger sisters, Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao.

Looking at the figure, looking at the immaturity between the eyebrows, Da Qiao seems to be a few years younger than Cai Yan, and Xiao Qiao is even more at an age that has just escaped from innocence.

In a camp, there are so many beauties concentrated, even Lu Bu is very happy at this time.

After half a ring, Cai Yan's ten fingers stopped, and a note of zuihou floated in the air, and Lu Bu was holding the food box in his hand at this time, otherwise, he would definitely applaud.

Among the crowd, it was Cai Yan who was the first to see Lu Bu and was about to get up to salute, but Lu Bu took the lead and smiled: "Sister Zhaoji doesn't need to be polite, be casual, be casual." ”

After speaking, he handed the food box he was holding in his hand to Yan, who got up to meet him, and said with a smile: "This is a whole sheep roasted by himself, tender and delicious, Mrs. beckons Mrs. Liu and you to have a good taste, not enough, and then send the maid to get it." ”

Mrs. Liu, it was the Empress Dowager He, before everyone, it was inconvenient to say that Diao Chan dared to sit down at this time, got up early and came to Yan's side, just to take a look at the void and smile at Lu Bu.

Yan personally held the food box and presented it to the Empress Dowager He first, and as for the others, Mink Chan did it for him. Lu Bu confessed early and withdrew from the account.

Returning to the fire and sitting down, Lu Bu told him his intentions, and Qiao Mao happily agreed, and immediately asked, "Why do you want to separate wealth and taxes?" ”

In the past few days, Lu Bu has thought deeply about this, and replied unhurriedly: "Taxes, tax rates, tax types, tax officials, tax collection, and many other matters, once the taxes are paid into the treasury, it will be considered a great success, and at this time, it is the beginning of the wealth......"

His so-called financial power is actually a fusion of finance, finance, currency, financial management and many other aspects of later generations, but in this life, although there are many matters such as the officials' fortunes, coinage, etc., but it is the first time that Lu Bu has merged them into one official position.

It took a lot of words for Lu Bu to explain it clearly, and Cai Yong, Qiao Mao, and Qiao Yu also combined their own experience and wisdom to add a lot of insights, making Lu Bu's idea more perfect. However, if it is to be realized, he still has to make a final conclusion after many discussions with Xu Shu, Jia Xu and everyone under his account.

At this time, it's just that this responsibility is set down first and handed over to Hashiwa to co-ordinate.

When the ladies in the tent dispersed to rest, Lu Bu and the four of them talked about it, but they didn't know.

When the Jade Rabbit slanted westward, Lu Bu returned to his own tent, and just finished washing, before he could rest, Mu Shun came.

When the Empress Dowager He stayed with a group of female dependents, although Mu Shun was a eunuch, he was still a man, and it was not suitable to enter the account. ”

Lu Bu didn't know what it was like in his heart, so he immediately followed Mu Shun and came to the Empress Dowager He's tent.

Empress Dowager He was excited at this time, and when she saw Lu Bu coming in, she immediately said coquettishly: "Okay, Lu Qing is here, the mourning family has left Yanmen Pass, I know that what Lu Qing said is true, now I have seen the prairie, sunrise, sunset, it is really magnificent and indescribable, but the bright night sky on the prairie that Lu Qing said has never been seen, why doesn't Lu Qing protect the mourning family and go out of the camp to see?" ”

Lu Bu groaned when he heard this, since Empress Dowager He was going to go out of the camp, only he could accompany him, but it was so late at night, if he didn't wait for the guards, he was a little worried.

Empress Dowager He asked with concern: "What, but is there any danger outside the camp?" ”

Lu Bu was stunned when he heard this, looked at the Empress Dowager He, and saw that her pretty face showed a slight look of disappointment, and couldn't help but feel proud in his heart, and replied: "The Empress Dowager has a will, and the ministers dare not resign, don't say that it is around the camp, that is, the entire prairie, if there are ministers, what danger can there be?" It's just that Rong Chen went back to prepare the horse, and the Queen Mother also had to take the carriage. ”

Empress Dowager He was overjoyed, smiled, and immediately ordered Mu Shun to prepare the carriage.

When Lu Bu led the red rabbit horse and came to the queen mother's tent, the queen mother He had already sat in the carriage, and Mu Shun was sitting in the driving seat. (To be continued......)
