Wu Nian sat in Luanyu, left the village, and returned to Dadu.

Recently, the leaders of the large and small tribes in the mountains or remote areas in the Three Han Dynasty have obeyed the order and arrived in Dadu, preparing to participate in the sacrifice to the heavens.

Of course, there are also those who disobey orders.

Wu Nian sent Feng Chong and Wu Min to lead the cavalry and exterminate those who did not obey the order.

So many tribal leaders and their retinues gathered in the city. It is indispensable to buy and buy, which increases the prosperity of the capital.

It's just that Han and Mengyuan didn't stand apart before.

Now the Han people are strong, and there are many conflicts with the Mengyuan people.

Wu Nian opened the window and glanced out from time to time. As soon as Luan Yu entered the court, a close minister rode up and bent down to salute Luan Yu, "King." Su Shun's red ghost Hou Qimin is here. I am waiting to be received at the pavilion. ”

"It's finally here." In Luan Yu, Wu Nian smiled and said to him, "Please come to the imperial study." ”

"Yes." The minister answered, and rode down.

After Luan Yu entered the palace, Wu Nian changed to a sedan chair and arrived at the imperial study.

Chimin arrived.

Wu Nian immediately invited people in.

"The minister, the red ghost marquis, General Qi Min. Meet the King. Qi Min, who was wearing a military general's uniform, bent down and saluted.

"Get up. Sit. Wu Nian smiled and invited him to sit down and drink tea. After a cup of tea, Wu Nian said, "General." The widow's nephew Zhang Zhen was able to gain a foothold in Sushun because of the assistance of the general. ”

"The general's feats are great."

The king was serious. This is what a minister should do. Qi Min hurriedly said modestly, and his face showed a glorious look.

In fact, where did he think so much back then, let alone think about it. This huge Mengyuan was in ruins, and the Han Dynasty was so powerful.

Wu Nian affirmed Qi Min's merits, and chatted with him for a while before getting to the point.

Wu Nian said frankly: "General." The widow has called you this time. One is because the general's red ghost department is very prestigious. The widow will hold a ceremony to worship the heavens, and take you to the town. ”

"Two. The widow has a matter that needs to bother you. ”

After hearing this, Qi Min immediately stood up and knelt down and said, "The king has an order, and the minister will not give up." ”

"Don't die. Don't die. Wu Nian stood up and left the throne and personally helped Qi Min up. And the Ouchi guards on both sides of him immediately followed, revealing a look of vigilance.

Although the Red Ghost Department has been obedient for many years, the safety of the king cannot be sloppy at all.

After inviting Qi Min to sit down, Wu Nian returned to the throne and sat down. said: "Now the population of Guanghan is gradually enriched. The population of Hanxing and Hansheng is sparse. Especially Hansheng Province. It is necessary to defend both the Outer Khing'an Mountains and the Dicheng Mountains. ”

"The widow plans to move 200,000 men and women from Sushun Mansion to Hansheng and belong to the governor Fu Daquan. also dispatched the general's ten thousand households to Dicheng. As one of the three garrison households. ”

"It's freezing over there, it's not a good place. And the general is not young, so the widow says that he is tired. ”

When Qi Min heard this, he didn't really want to go to the north to eat the northwest wind. But now, under the impact of the Han Dynasty's government and county system, the Red Ghost Tribe has been very loose and almost exists in name.

And his family is both prosperous and lossy with the Han Dynasty.

How to do this, almost without thinking.

Qi Min immediately clenched his fists and said, "King." It is the honor of a minister to guard the frontier for the country. After the sacrifice to the sky, the minister immediately returned to Sushun and dispatched troops and horses. ”

"The general is really a loyal servant." Wu Nian saw that Qi Min was so knowledgeable, so he also reciprocated. After talking to him for a long time, we had dinner together.

gave Qi Min a lot of good things, and let Qi Min have a son and enter the grandson to study.

Didn't treat him badly.

Worshipping the heavens is not really worshipping the heavens. It's a deterrent.

With the arrival of people from all sides, Wu Nian ordered more than 100,000 households of Ma Bujun, as well as the leaders of the Hu and Mengyuan tribes of the Three Han Dynasty, to surround Luan and go out to the Xing'an Mountains.

There were many soldiers and horses in the Han army, and the momentum was huge, so they could not take small roads, but could only follow the avenues and take long roads.

The walk was also very slow, and it took more than two months to reach the Outer Khing'an Mountains from Dadu.

But the effect is outstanding.

Although this time the tribal leader came, the tribesmen did not come. The Diao people in the mountains and mountains, seeing the great momentum of the Han army, how can they not be afraid?

The Trans-Khingan Mountains are horizontal mountain ranges bordering the sea from east to west.

It is hundreds of miles wide from north to south. It is a natural barrier of the Han Kingdom.

Natural resources are also extremely abundant. The most attractive are wood and fur resources. Other minerals, such as gold, silver, copper, etc., still need time to be explored.

At present, there is no population in the two provinces of Hanxing and Hansheng, and there is obviously a vast land, but no one cultivates it. The matter of minerals naturally has to be postponed and postponed.

Wu Nian planned to expand the population first, and then wait for the train to be built. They will start the timber, fur, and various mineral industries in the Outer Khing'an Mountains, and continuously transfuse blood to the south.

Grain, cloth and other daily necessities from the south were transported to the north.

It is not enough to simply let the common people guard the border. These two provinces are so cold, although the plains are vast, they can support millions of people at most.

This is if the weather is particularly cold, or if there are many years of military disasters. The people would flee to the south to earn a living.

In order to retain the people, these industries have to be developed.

Only by developing and strengthening the Sanhan can the people stay here. When the population is larger, it can expand outward.

On Wu Nian's shoulders, there is a long way to go.

The place of worship to heaven is set on the boundary of Hansheng Province, on a high mountain.

The matter of worshipping the heavens was in charge of the Hojo clan, assisted by officials of the Ministry of Rites.

Originally, this high mountain had a name, but the Hojo clan changed its name to Mt. Han.

Simple and crude, but extremely beautiful.

Guanghan, Hansheng, and Hanxing are collectively known as the Three Hans. The king of Han led an army of more than 100,000 people, met with the leaders of Mengyuan and Hu, and sacrificed to the sky in Hanshan.

It's beautiful to think about.

When the Han army reached the foot of the mountain, the camp tents were continuous, the banners were at their peak, the voices of the people and horses were neighing, and they were strong and invincible.

Evening. Inside the big tent of the Chinese army.

Wu Nian ate a meal, took a bath, and planned to go to bed. Ouchi's guards walked in from outside and reported, "King." General Feng asked to see him. ”

"Let him in." Wu Nian felt that it would be no good for this guy to come to the door, but as the first hero of the Northern Expedition, he had to give face.

"Yes." Ouchi's guards went down in response.

A moment later. Feng Chong, who was wearing an official uniform, walked in majestically.

"Excuse me, excuse me. Something straight to say. Wu Nian saw that he was about to salute, so he waved his hand and said.

"Hehehe." Feng Chong smiled, and then asked embarrassedly, "King." The minister wanted to ask. What is the reward for the first merit of the minister? ”

When Wu Nian heard this, he was speechless.

However, it is reasonable for Feng Chong to say such things.
