Guo Jia found that when he entered the city, even if he was in the Xun family's convoy, he could not avoid being checked for his name, Guo Jia originally planned to try to stuff some money for the soldiers guarding the city gate, but was stopped by the old shopkeeper Xun, this behavior may make Guo Jia be detained. (the most stable,

Along the way, accompanied by the old shopkeeper Xun, Guo Jia is not lonely, the next day, Guo Jia will no longer be dizzy, he can ride a horse outside, a rare horse in the Central Plains, there are many here, and if he does not ride a horse on the road outside Youzhou City, he will definitely be regarded as a freak.

Guo Jia found that there were many female members of the caravan who came and went, and they were also riding horses, and some were even wearing armor.

"Old shopkeeper, why are there so many women in the caravan?"

"Oh, that's because there are more women in Miyun than there are men, and these women were originally herding horses on the grassland, so they are proficient in riding and archery, so there are also many caravans that hire them as escorts, and women are serious and patient, and by the way, they can also solve the problem of cooking, and they can kill more than one stone1

Guo Jia nodded with emotion, it seems that there are too many men killed in Miyun, so this situation will occur.

"These women were originally Hu people, and they were naturalized later, how about it, you can't see that they are Hu people, right?"

Guo Jia was stunned for a moment, and realized that he had just thought about it, it turned out that these were all new Hermes-Epitek, and Guo Jia's original pity for these people immediately turned into appreciative eyes.

"I really can't see it, they don't look like the Hu people at all, and they speak Chinese very well.1

"Hehe, that's it. They all know some Chinese characters, and those who are illiterate are not easy to find a job. ”

"Why don't they continue grazing?"

"This old man knows. It is said that because the efficiency of family-based grazing is too low, the income is naturally much less than that of people, so those who originally used to be family-based herders gradually change their careers, either to farm or to find work, regardless of the form of income will be higher than grazing1

Guo Jia nodded, it turned out that there were so many doorways here, and Miyun didn't do anything. It is easy to change herders into farmers, successfully bind them to the land and the city, and, under the demonstration effect of the wealth effect, there will definitely be more nomadic herders who voluntarily join Miyun.

"Old shopkeeper, I have seen an endless stream of merchants on this road in the past two days, is it possible for such a large trade volume?"

"How could it not be? Most of the products of Fengning and Miyun went south through this road. The products of other places in Dahan, even Jiaozhou, are all going north through this road, and there have even been caravans to transport these products to the snowfields of Mobei, so the caravans here are not too many, but not enough. ”

Guo Jia sighed secretly in his heart, Miyun has a fierce folk style. Even the dart shop is free, in order to follow the caravan to kill the wild monsters; Miyun has a complete trade structure that connects the world, from output to caravanserais, the complete trade link is like a huge machine, unstoppably rushing forward; Miyun has a fairly reliable administrative system. Not even a single gatekeeper dared to collect a small penny; The most important thing is that Miyun's policy has won the support of the people. Look at the people living here, they always have a confident smile on their faces, and they are neither arrogant nor humble in their dealings with others, even the newly naturalized Hermes-Epitek are all upright, and that kind of pride is definitely not fake.

This kind of dense cloud is really a bit terrifying, Guo Jia thinks about it, and he really can't think of anyone in the entire Han Dynasty who can stop this powerful force, perhaps, only Yiren can do it, right?

When he arrived in Yuyang City, Guo Jia formally visited Yuyang Ling Xun Yan, Xun Yan was just very thoughtful and warmly entertained, and did not talk about any in-depth issues, nor even mentioned the purpose of Guo Jia's visit, more often, Xun Yan really asked Guo Jia about what he had seen and heard along the way, as well as some academic things.

Since Xun Yan didn't ask about his intentions, Guo Jia was naturally happy, and the two talked freely about the wine, and they were happy.

The next day, Xun Yan invited Guo Jia to visit Yuyang City, Yuyang City seems to be a little depressed because of the population problem, in addition to the passing business travel, walking to other parts of the city feels a little too quiet, however, it is also a leisurely charm, Xun Yan told Guo Jia that because Yuyang is no longer the county of Yuyang County, so most of the population has been siphoned off, and now Yuyang City can only grow slowly or use the creation of new economic growth points to attract population.

The first thing Xun Yan did when he became the master of Yuyang was to develop agriculture, the terrain around Yuyang was gentle, the potential for farmland development was huge, and the water source was also abundant.

Guo Jia asked Xun Yan about the advantages and disadvantages of Miyun's key urban strategy, although Xun Yan came to Miyun not long ago, but he had an in-depth study of this, the two discussed with each other, and found that this form of point to area is really the best way to develop in a vast and sparsely populated place like Youzhou.

The next day, Xun Yan asked Guo Jia to set off with the cavalry team that routinely patrolled Nanguan, and Guo Jia was naturally very happy, because it was the first time he had followed the regular army to act together!

After sending Guo Jia away, Xun Yan wrote a letter to Fang Zhiwen and Shi A, as well as his younger brother with a smile.

Let's talk about Guo Jia.

"General"

"Don't call me a general, I'm just a Qu Chang, son, you can just call me Lao Yang."

"Hehe, okay, Lao Yang 1 Guo Jia likes this rough man very much, according to himself, he was originally a Wuhuan person, and later changed his surname to Yang when he became a naturalized general, this new general, the worship of Fang Zhiwen is almost deep in the bone marrow.

The reason is that Fang Zhiwen has a relatively fair promotion environment in the army, as well as preferential treatment and preferential measures for the families of soldiers, Lao Yang was originally a low-level herdsman, he was driven to the front when he was fighting, but he was at the back when he was distributed, and his property was taken away by the leader, and he couldn't even protect his own women

Until he surrendered to the Han army in Fengning, when he learned that the Han army could share an additional twenty acres of land, he did not hesitate to join the Han army, and then started from a small soldier, and gradually poured Qu Chang's position, and his family is now also settled in Yuyang, living a peaceful and prosperous life, so his gratitude and love for Fang Zhiwen is from the heart.

The war knife on his waist is said to be a New Year's gift from Fang Zhiwen, so he loves it like a treasure!

"Lao Yang, I heard from Xuncheng yesterday that your army was just rotated back from the north, can you tell me about the battle situation in the north1

"Why not, there is no war in the north now, our last big battle in the north is the battle of the estuary with the lord, I tell you, at that time"

When Lao Yang talked about this, he immediately became energetic, and it wasn't until he finished resting that Lao Yang found that he was patronizing and talking, and he hadn't eaten yet!

Guo Jia also listened with relish, it was the first time he had obtained the information of the Battle of the Estuary at such a close distance, and from this battle, Guo Jia saw a lot of things that others could not see.

"Were you not afraid? When facing a 10-out-of-pocket enemy? ”

Lao Yang grinned, turned back to the soldiers gathered around and asked, "Were you scared at that time?" ”

"Not afraid 1

A loud and proud answer, so that Guo Jia was shocked, when the soldiers said this, not with the courage to die, but with absolute trust in the boss, even in that desperate situation, these soldiers did not waver in the slightest trust in the lord, they knew that the victory would belong to them.

What kind of army is this!

Guo Jia nodded appreciatively and asked with a smile: "The Battle of Hekou announced the destruction of Xianbei in the east, so there is no war in the Northeast now?" ”

"Large-scale is impossible, and the military officers said in their post-war summary that there may be small-scale battles in the future, even if we attack north of the Great Xianbei Mountain in the future, or attack Fuyu, it will not be too large-scale, because more likely to use non-war means to complete the continuous attack on the Xianbei people and foreigners1

"Non-means of war?"

"Yes, and there are also strangers, they are very keen to go to the north of Daxianbei Mountain to play, sometimes I am a little envious, patrolling like we are now to clean up wild monsters and bandits, in fact, it is very boring."

"Hehe, to put it mildly, people say that the crockpot is difficult to break from the well, and the general will inevitably die in battle, aren't you worried that you won't be able to come back if you go to the battlefield?"

"War will always die, but if you want to be stronger, you must keep fighting, if you don't have this kind of continuous upward courage, then go home and farm, besides, this great home must always be guarded by someone, we don't go, who goes?"

Guo Jia was stunned, looked up at the soldiers around him, on their faces, Guo Jia read a lot of things that he didn't understand before, the people can defend themselves, they can't resist it, the people can know themselves, they can't win!

Guo Jia has seen the princes ruling the people, and then sharing the results with the world and the elite, but Miyun is different, they are sharing the results together, from the common people to the world elite, from the common people to the magnates, although there is inevitably more or less inequality, but it is really sharing the rich land of Youzhou, sharing the thriving Miyun territory.

From this point of view, Miyun is a whole, and who can defeat such a Miyun!?

The cavalry marched very fast, in the evening, Guo Jia had already seen the city tower of Nanguansai, Nanguansai is undoubtedly a Xiongguan, after this Xiongguan, it entered the scope of Miyun City, and Miyun City is the starting place of the great changes in the entire Youzhou land, and it is also the core of the vast territory of Miyun.

Guo Jia sat on the war horse, looking up at the towering pass with the soldiers, looking at the flag flying high on the pass stopper, his heart couldn't help but be slowly filled with a thing, this warm feeling slowly spread to the body, Guo Jia clearly felt the faint reverence and joy in his heart, this feeling is so strange!
