The winter of Mengyuan is much colder than that of Liaodong.

Tuta County is located near the border, but because of the strength of the Mongol Yuan. This county town has not experienced a war for many years.

The population of the county is only 20,000 or 30,000, which is not much, but it is very prosperous.

The local area is dominated by Mengyuan people, and there are also a small number of Han people.

The Mengyuan people walked out of the white water and black mountains, originally fishing and hunting. However, after learning from the Han people, he gradually focused on farming, and opened up a large amount of fertile land outside the city.

But in winter, Mengyuan men who have nothing to do will also carry bows and arrows and enter the mountains in groups to hunt.

The Han people in Liaodong are divided into military households and civilian households. And almost every household of the Mengyuan people is a military household, not a household registration.

It's a fierce family style of dancing guns and sticks, shooting bows and arrows, riding horses, and so on. Their children, who learned martial arts, horsemanship, bows and arrows from their fathers, grew up to be soldiers.

Meng Yuan rewarded ploughing and warfare, and obtained land, wealth, and women with military exploits.

Now the court system of the Mengyuan people is similar to that of the Chu State, but the customs are similar to the Qin State back then.

There is a family in the city whose surname is Tuhar. It's not a big surname of Meng Yuan, it's just a small local surname.

In the Tuhal Mansion.

Forty-three-year-old Mihaniu stood in the courtyard, supervising the martial arts training of his three grandsons. He was a veteran of the battlefield and retired from the army as a centurion, along with one of his left eyes and two fingers.

In exchange for the mansion in the city, the land outside the city, as well as women and wealth.

Miha's three grandchildren, the eldest was ten years old and the youngest was eight years old, and they were born with strong physiques and dark skin, standing in a row and playing with wooden knives.

"Give me a good practice. We, the Tuhar family, only produce warriors, no cowards. ”

"My property will only be left to my eldest son. Your father's property will only be left to your eldest brother. If you want land, women, and houses, you have to join the army yourself, get military exploits, and rob the Han people. ”

"A coward has no future, he only deserves to die in hunger and cold."

Miha's expression is very stern, and with a one-eyed one-eye, it gives people a very strong sense of oppression.

At least in the minds of the three children, their grandfather was a complete tiger.

But they are afraid, but they also want to be a tiger.

Only a strong tiger can tear its prey apart. Weak sheep will only be torn apart by tigers.

We had to practice martial arts, become soldiers in the army, and then go south to rob the Han Chinese. Women, wealth, land.

As long as the knife in your hand is strong enough, you will be prosperous and wealthy, and you can get it at your fingertips.

The three children used their strength to feed, practicing knife skills non-stop, and each of them was like a wolf cub, full of howling momentum.

"Hmm."

Mihacow nodded with satisfaction, this is my cub. When you are sixteen years old, you can be sent to the army.

Get the war merits, bring back the Han women, money, and land, and you can spread the branches.

Sooner or later, our family will become a prominent family.

"Sir. Lunch is ready. A middle-aged woman dressed as a Han walked over with low eyebrows.

Her name is Wang.

It was Mihaniu who snatched it back then, and now she is a concubine in the house. said that she was a concubine, but in fact she was similar to a maidservant.

Han women are only worthy of cubs.

"You practice a little longer. When I eat, you will eat again. Mihaniu raised his eyes and gave a snort to his grandchildren, then turned to eat.

At this moment, a Hannu walked in from outside, bent down and said, "Master." Prefectural magistrate, please. ”

"Huh?!" Mihaniu's brows furrowed, revealing a look of surprise.

As a retired centurion from the army, he had a certain political status. It's like a squire of the Han people.

If the county magistrate needs it, he will also consult with him.

But very little.

"Prepare the horses." Mihaniu did not dare to delay and immediately ordered. Then he didn't want to eat, strode to the door, turned over his horse, took the two Han slaves, and went to the county office.

After coming to the hall, Mihaniu was even more surprised.

Except for the county order Li Yan, the staff was full. There are more than a dozen people such as county officials and retired centurions and thousands.

"Lord Prefectural Order." Mihaniu came to Li Yan and bent down to salute.

"Sit." Li Yan nodded and asked Mihaniu to sit down.

Li Yan glanced at everyone present, and his heart was slightly wider. Li Yan is just his Chinese name. His name was Haigar.

His family is also different from ordinary Mengyuan families.

Most of Mengyuan's families are still heirlooms with martial arts, and their family style is strong. But gradually some reading families were formed, producing bureaucrats.

His family is this kind of reading family.

Li Yan is very good at being an official, but he doesn't know anything about fighting, but at least he has no experience.

"Someone came to report. There was a force of about three thousand commanders, and it appeared near the county. And I didn't have a transfer beforehand, so I didn't know about this army. I thought it was a little weird, so I ordered the city gate to be closed. Mobilize officials to defend the city. What do you guys think? ”

Li Yan asked in a deep voice.

At present, there is no garrison in Tuta County, but there are 300 servants.

As soon as Li Yan said this, everyone in the hall began to discuss, and the atmosphere was very relaxed.

"Lord Prefectural Order. You're overthinking. Now we have 100,000 households and are fighting in Liaodong. The front was in Liaodong. The army that appeared in our Mengyuan must be his own people. Don't worry about it. ”

"yes. Although there is no appointment, it looks a little weird. But troop movements, sometimes very suddenly. There is no appointment, and it is possible. ”

Military intelligence has all converged on Prince Chunyuan's side.

No one specially reported the news to the small border town of Tuta County. Therefore, the people in this city did not know that Puguri had been killed.

In the eyes of everyone, the war was still controlled in the Liaodong area.

Besides.

Even if the ten thousand households failed in Liaodong and returned to Mengyuan in an all-round way. The Han reoccupied Liaodong. Do the Han people still dare to attack the Mengyuan mainland?

They are tired of living.

Kill as many as you want.

Our teenage boys are soldiers. How do they fight us?

The fighting nation is not a vegetarian.

There shouldn't be any Han general, who has a convulsive brain, and leads the army to pretend to be Mengyuan soldiers, come to us.

But there are also a small number of people who feel that this matter needs to be cautious.

Miha is one of them.

Mi Ha Niu thought for a moment, raised his head and clasped his fists at Li Yan and said, "Lord County Commander." The Han people have a saying, called being prepared. ”

"I think you're right to close the gates. Let's watch from the wall first. If this army is passing by, let them pass. ”

"But at the same time. You can give an order and call up a thousand soldiers. With the addition of 300 servants, you can garrison the city without losing it. Be prepared. ”

As soon as Mihaniu's words came out, others despised them.

"Miha, when did you become so small?"

"yes. You're getting older and more timid. This is our army. How could any Han soldiers dare to appear in Mengyuan? ”

Mihaniu was unmoved, just looked up at Li Yan.

After thinking about it for a while, Li Yan stood up and ordered, "Okay." Just do as Mihacow says. Recruit a thousand soldiers. Ladies and gentlemen. You help me organize the defense of the city. ”
