Chapter 251: The Alliance and the Horde (Part II)
Bai Tan covered his face on the side: "Hanshui, I think my secondary two disease is going to attack." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”
Yan Hanshui shrugged: "No way, this is the fastest way." After all, your abilities, what you have done in this era, are indeed miracles. We don't have much time left...... "yes, even if we get all these tribal leaders, another month has passed."
This month...... The time has gradually entered autumn again, and Yan Hanshui has already encouraged his own soldiers, as well as the warriors joined by the Tuoba tribe, to help Datang and these nearby tribes begin to harvest food and hoard grain and grass.
After all, soldiers working for ordinary people is the best way to gain prestige. Yan Hanshui laughed self-deprecatingly: "We are the children of the people of the Tang Dynasty. ”
In addition to the Yanhanshui side of the alliance, the leader of a Turkic branch, the Goshu tribe, led tens of thousands of tribal people out of their original position. Because Gu Ge had a grudge against Datang back then, especially after hearing that Datang was going to unite all the Turks to form an alliance this time, he felt that this was to deal with himself.
So before the meeting was over on the Yanhanshui side, he led the population of the headquarters to contact the remnants of the Zhaowu nine surnames here. The Huoxun tribe that was extinguished in front of him was one of them.
Although Yan Hanshui did not explicitly say that he represented Datang, others were not stupid and could see it. There are only three tribes left in the Zhaowu Nine Surname, with a total of more than 10,000 people. However, Gu Gebi was not idle, and annexed the rest of the Shi Kingdom, and contacted Ge Lulu, the sworn enemy of the Tang Dynasty, hoping that they could send troops to support their alliance against the Tang Dynasty.
At this time, however, Qarlu was also in a state of division. The two factions of Ye Hu constantly attacked each other, and the help they gave them was very limited. Moreover, Qarlu (East) is still better with Datang. Of course, no one believes in this kind of friendship, it's just that they don't have enough power to start a war on both fronts.
Especially after learning that Yan Hanshui had formed an alliance, Gu Gebi was even more careful. He hurried to pull together some small forces, such as several tribes of Turgish. It can have a population of more than 100,000 people at one time, which is also a huge momentum.
It's the same with Yan Hanshui, the entire alliance can have a population of more than 100,000. Although there are few soldiers in the Tang Dynasty here, only a small part of the northern part of Beiting, and a few towns have less than 2,000 people. There are only five or six hundred people who can fight, and there are less than a thousand people in the headquarters of Yanhanshui.
The Turks also contributed, more than 30,000 people in total, and 35,000 people with the smoke and cold water. This year, Yan Hanshui has never stopped, desperately expanding his strength, and exterminating several small tribes that are not long-eyed. With the loot, the whole alliance was even happier.
During this period of time, both sides were accumulating strength, so it was very peaceful on the surface. Therefore, Yan Hanshui directly started the reform plan, and under the threat of the totem of the god of nature (white sandalwood) and the god of fire (the claws of Yan Hanshui), Yan Hanshui directly started the planned economy model.
If you don't plan it, you can't do it, or you can let them herd the livestock or farm the land alone, which will be less efficient. And most of them are nomadic tribes, and only a few have fixed locations. If they hadn't shown great strength, it is estimated that they would have been killed by a group of people long ago if they changed the traditions of several tribes.
Although there are many difficulties, there are not too many changes. Several nomadic tribes arranged for them to raise livestock, after all, fur and meat were in great demand throughout the North Garden. Some of them were carried by the cold water to the vicinity of the Doros River for fishing and hunting. From a nomadic to a fishing and hunting people, well.... It's a bit weird indeed.
The last ones are the closest to the Tang Dynasty, which is naturally farming. This at least ensured the exchange of food, and some small tribes were also exploited. Some tribes make leather armor, others make weapons. Generally speaking, it is the same as that of the Soviet Union, where each member tribe has its own industrial chain, and then drives the overall common prosperity.
And all the data and information are shared, and a meeting is held every year to report on the output of the work of each tribe, and then the work content of the next year is shared. Of course, if your tribe has the ability to do more, then it can naturally be traded. Beiting will also come to purchase food and weapons, and the price is reasonable. Although the progress of this set was a little slow, it was finally on the right track in the second winter.
As time passed, the people of the entire alliance finally tasted the sweetness. After all, the original monotonous food gradually became abundant. Every day, there are convoys of transport to and fro to deliver food to the various tribes. Whether it is those foreigners or the commoners of the Tang Dynasty, as long as they can eat enough, they will naturally support the leader. The prestige of these women has skyrocketed.
Even Yan Hanshui made another condition that they couldn't refuse, that is, all children under the age of twelve, and the elderly over fifty years old. They can all be brought to live near Beiting and Gaochang, of course, only outside the city, because there is not so much land in the city. However, Yan Hanshui has already begun to consider building a new city, with the purpose of cultivating the descendants of the Tang Dynasty.
Children can receive education and can learn Chinese from an early age. As for the language of the people, the smoke and cold water will not care. If they want to teach themselves, they will not be hindered by the smoke and cold water. But living conditions near the city are much better than those of the tribes. And if everyone learns Chinese, then their original culture will gradually disappear.
The people of this era do not have the minds of popular integration in later generations. The reason given to them by the smoke and cold water is also very simple, the elderly and children are prone to death in the wild, and if they work hard for the tribe all their lives, shouldn't the old people enjoy the blessings? Children are the same, to learn some knowledge of Datang, they can better serve all tribes in the future.
In doing so, Yan Hanshui also directly dispelled the nation. She herself estimated that in about twenty years, Beiting might be able to completely annex these tribes. Moreover, after the annexation of other hostile tribes, except for the young and middle-aged who were sent to other places as slaves, all the young women were also left to the Tang soldiers. Although it can't meet the expectation of five wives for one person, now one wife and one concubine are basically allocated.
The matter of teaching was handed over to Wu Ya, and the problem of women was handed over to Yanzi. Now the swallow team is getting bigger and bigger, and even absorbs a lot of foreign races. Yan Hanshui also gave women a new job in addition to spying on intelligence with their bodies, studying medicine. At least simple battlefield ambulance, midwifery, these jobs, Yan Hanshui intends to let these swallows learn.
This can greatly reduce the loss of population, after all, more than 1,000 Tang soldiers with one wife and one concubine will soon be able to usher in a peak period of fertility. But it was also at this time that Yan Hanshui got a piece of information from Yanzi, that is, the Geshu tribe led a group of small tribes to form a coalition army. Prepare to seize the Doros River, after all, the land is the most fertile here now.
Of course, Yan Hanshui thought in his heart: "The alliance is now there, and the tribe has also come out.... The various races in this North Court have finally been broken by me. ”
