Chapter 126: He Yong's Request
He Zhong didn't know where Li Qing's confidence came from, but he didn't question it.
This year's getting along has allowed him to see the terrifying ability of this Hou Ye again and again, and after a long time, he has developed a convincing instinct.
"Master Hou, how long will it take?"
"If nothing else, about half a year." Li Qing said a word, and said: "We also have to hurry up and find a leader who can take the lead to come out, so as not to let our efforts go to waste." ”
"Half a year... The leader ......" and Zhong chewed on these two words, and suddenly there were some gains and losses.
When he came back to his senses, Li Qing had already ridden away......
Due to the cattle and sheep with him, it took a long time to return to the camp for nearly a month.
As soon as he came back, He Zhong looked for Li Qing, his face was full of seriousness, but he wanted to stop talking.
"Just say whatever you want, don't grind." Li Qing frowned, "You don't look like your father at all." ”
He Zhong: "......"
"Master Hou, the last general ......" he took a deep breath, as if he had made some kind of decision, "the last general wants to stay and be the leader." ”
Li Qing was stunned, and then sneered: "Don't make trouble, I promised your father to take you back......"
In the middle of his words, Li Qing suddenly paused, "No, you kid has a backbone!?" ”
"How can there be," He Zhong waved his hand again and again, he was really afraid that Li Qing would give him a moment, he knew how powerful this old man was, and hurriedly explained: "The last general is worried... As soon as we leave this hard-working team, we will fall short. ”
After a pause, "Master Hou, do you think about it, you are the Marquis of Yongqing, I am the commander, the two of us will go at the same time, then will they still believe that Daming will support it?" ”
"Da Ming can support Warat, why can't he support them?"
He Zhong said: "Hou Ye is right, but if we leave suddenly, they will inevitably feel strange, if the end will stay here, it will be different, it can not only stabilize people's hearts, but also not let our hard work ......"
"That's it!" Li Qing interrupted him and said coldly, "Do you know what you're talking about, do you know how this will affect your family."
You know that's what happened to you, ...... your father."
"Yes, I know it all." He Zhong sighed lightly, looked at Li Qing and said with a wry smile, "Master Hou, in fact, this is what my father meant. ”
"What?" Li Qing was taken aback, and immediately sneered, "Good boy, do you think this kind of nonsense can win people's trust?" ”
"Really!"
He Zhong said: "Before leaving, my father changed his words, maybe ...... He also has regrets. ”
"What can he regret?" Li Qing hehe, "Do you regret taking refuge in Daming?" ”
"It's not regrets," He Zhong shook his head, "If that's the case, he won't be running around for Da Ming at his age." ”
Hearing this, Li Qing's face looked a lot better, and he said in a muffled voice: "Let's talk about it." ”
He Zhong sighed lightly: "He wants me to fulfill his grandfather's wish on his behalf." ”
"Arutai?"
“…… Be. ”
Li Qing frowned: "What is accomplished?" Regain the glory of the past, and point to the Central Plains? ”
He Zhong smiled bitterly, "Master Hou, you know, this is impossible at all, in fact...... The great-grandfather's wish was only to protect the Queen. ”
Li Qing froze for a moment and fell silent.
After a long time, she said, "She has been dead for a long time." ”
"To be precise, it is the inheritance of the Queen's lineage." He Zhong explained: "Of course, I will also stick to our strategic goal, this army will never be annexed by any tribe. ”
"Hehe, the tone is not small!"
He Zhong also seemed to feel a little arrogant, and added: "At least in my lifetime, I will not be annexed." ”
After a pause, "Master Hou, you know that it is far safer to hand it over to me than to find a new leader." ”
Li Qing nodded with a wry smile, but said, "Actually, she doesn't care about this at all, and there is no need to stick to it at all." ”
"Don't care about that?"
"Well," Li Qing sighed faintly, turned around, and seemed to be talking to herself, as if she was sentimental: "She's just a tsundere little woman." ”
He Zhong looked stunned, and when he was relieved, Li Qing had already left the handsome camp......
At the beginning of August, it was still hot and dry at noon, but the wind was soft on the face.
Li Qing sat on the mound, grabbed a clod of soil and twisted it gently, and the fine dust was scattered from his fingertips and scattered with the wind.
He stared in a daze, but his eyes were distracted and unfocused.
For this arrogant little woman, he finally felt a little more guilty, and he also had a little regret, regret...... I didn't finish the story that night.
It's just that he doesn't have a chance, and he doesn't even have a chance to make up for himself.
He couldn't find her resting place.
The sky of the grassland is very blue, the tile is blue, Li Qingping lay down, pillowing his arms and staring in a daze, breathing the fragrance of grass......
He had a dream, and he dreamed of a sky-blue Haidongqing, its eyes full of indescribable wildness, it looked at him, hovering proudly......
I woke up from a dream,
Li Qing sat up slowly, the autumn wind blew on him, his robe grinned, he was a little cold, and tightened his robe.
Eventually, it turned into a long sigh......
The results of this battle were remarkable, the people slaughtered cattle and sheep for cooking, cheered constantly, the air was filled with the smell of meat, and their faces were filled with joy.
Li Qing hugged his knees, looked at this scene, and unconsciously smiled......
~
Li Qing thought twice and agreed to Hezhong's request.
Objectively speaking, Hezhong's stay will bring greater benefits to Daming, but ...... Li Qing also did not want to live up to He Yong.
He asked Hezhong to change his name to the name of the grassland people, completely separating him from Daming and Yong.
In this way, the Ming and Yong families were prevented from being affected.
Nothing is set in stone, and with the passage of time, sooner or later, this army will integrate here and be completely assimilated.
Li Qing didn't want innocent people to be implicated......
September.
After recuperation, Li Qing once again gathered more than 10,000 troops and went to the Tatar base camp of the past.
It was only at this time that He Zhong understood why Yongqinghou said that he was not far from achieving his strategic goals.
The other party turned out to be ...... Migrated!
However, there are still a considerable number of people who will have time to migrate in the future, or in other words, they simply do not have the ability to move.
Because, most of the wealth has been robbed by powerful people, and they can only stay to fend for themselves.
The large tribe with a population of nearly 150,000 is now less than 50,000, and all of them are yellow and thin, and they are living a difficult life.
There is no need to fight at all, as soon as Li Qing's men arrived, the other party took the initiative to surrender, looking like they were at their disposal, they really had no ability to resist, and they could only accept the judgment of fate.
For those who have no ability to resist, Li Qing will not use repressive means, but he also understands that there is only one way to let the people in this tribe survive-
Marriage!
The woman was assigned by him to his subordinate warriors, so that he could not only satisfy these warriors who licked the blood with their knife heads, but also make the two families become one through the hub of marriage.
The steppe people regard plunder as a matter of course, and as the losing party, they are not very reluctant to such a fate, and they are already fortunate that they have not been purged......
The whole process went smoothly and there was no chaos.
In order to take care of the psychology of the warriors, Li Qing gave a certain living allowance to those children who were not born to them, and at the same time, he also gave the elderly a way to survive and let them cultivate farmland near the water.
Although they are very hard and tired, they can survive and show their worth.
Valuable people will not be excluded!
Li Qing used the methods and methods of building the Hetao to develop here, and of course, the water and grass here are abundant and beautiful, and it also has the conditions for development.
After all...... This was the base camp of the original Tatars.
Li Qing also has the advantage of doing this, that is, let these people settle here in the future and change their nomadic survival habits.
Once they have a fixed residence, it will be convenient for Daming to free up his hands in the future.
Of course, this is not something that can be completed overnight, and it takes enough time to accumulate, precipitate, and spread......
However, this seed is planted, and sooner or later it will blossom and bear fruit.
Li Qing can afford to wait......
At the same time as the construction, Li Qing also migrated the tribe where he was before, in contrast, this place is suitable for long-term survival and has the conditions for development and growth.
When the days are busy, the days always pass quickly, and before you know it, autumn goes to winter, saying goodbye to the old and welcoming the new, as if it is a new year.
Li Qing is still not idle, while organizing construction, he plans the development route for Hezhong......
Flash
It has been the eleventh year of Chenghua, March.
It is the season when the water and grass are abundant, the grassland scenery is particularly good, and it is also the season of sowing.
Li Qing looked at the people who were farming, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, although there was very little arable land at this stage, he believed that with the passage of time, there would be more and more arable land.
At the same time, he also believes that this way of survival will be known and imitated by other tribes.
In this way, in the future, the grassland people will be like the Han people, with a fixed residence, and even a town.
On that day, the integration of inside and outside the customs will no longer be a fool's dream, but truly feasible.
Li Qing followed for another two months, but did not find any obvious drawbacks, so he was ready to leave.
Taishifu.
Li Qing, Taishi and Zhong sat opposite each other, drinking mare's milk wine.
He Zhong said: "Hou Ye rest assured, although the last general has changed his identity, he will not be ungrateful and will not live up to his mission." ”
"Well," Li Qing nodded, "The battle still has to continue, the original intention of coming here is to disrupt the situation, of course, even if you stand on the position of this tribe, you must start wars from time to time to ensure sufficient combat effectiveness in order to protect this family." ”
"The last general understands!" He Zhong nodded: "Does Master Hou have any other orders?" ”
"Find a descendant of Genghis Khan as a puppet as soon as possible, so as to stabilize your position," Li Qing said: "After I go back, the emperor will recognize you and give the puppet a little prince or something, so as to facilitate your rule." ”
"The last general will try his best, but it's just ......" He Zhong couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Looking for the descendants of the Golden Family, it's really ...... It's a little hard! ”
Li Qing thought for a while and said, "Try to find it, I really can't find it...... You know. ”
“…… All right. He Zhong nodded, "Anything else?" ”
"I'll say hello to Zhu Yong over there and let him get closer here." Li Qing instructed, "Remember, when dealing with Daming in the future, don't reveal your true identity." ”
"I understand!" He Zhong nodded solemnly.
Li Qing sighed and said with a smile: "It's been two years since I left, and I have to go back." ”
