Yan Yan and Zhang Song looked at each other. Can they say that they didn't disband the barbarian army after they defeated Guishang last year? As for the latter, they all knew the danger of changing generals on the spot. Why should Yan Yan, a so-called veteran general on the battlefield who has already proven his ability, do so.
Speaking of which, Zhang Su, Wang Lei, and Huang Quan were more or less good people when they were in Yizhou. At least they would not randomly cheat the people of Yizhou. Although they, as vested interests, would congenitally suppress the people as a class, at least This suppression is still maintained within a certain range.
However, after the fight last year, these capable ministers who were still considered gentlemen in Yizhou could no longer be considered human beings for what they did.
Probably, this is the so-called enemy's hero and my enemy.
First, they collected the tributes from the dozen small countries in the southwest that had not paid tribute in the past thirty years. In fact, there were more small countries at the beginning, but because some of them really did not obey the command and even dared to resist, needless to say, they were commanded by Huang Quan. The people were calmed down and all the things were moved away.
Later, the leading party who was friendly to the Han Dynasty was selected on the spot to build a Han Dynasty radiation area, inherit the land and resources of the previous country, and become Han Dynasty officials in the area. The land was incorporated into the Han Dynasty territory and was brought under the direct leadership of Zhang Su and others.
Seeing such a brutal situation, how could other countries not know that not paying tribute for thirty years has really pissed off the Han family. If someone comes down this year, no matter what, they need to give the Han family an explanation.
After all, the Han Dynasty was too strong and fierce. The Kushan people next door were beaten by the Han Dynasty. Now everyone knows who is the real boss, so they can only find problems from themselves. Ah, as a member of the vassal system, thirty The Han Dynasty did not pay tribute for many years and made such a big mistake. The Han Dynasty did not destroy the country, which was already a loss of face.
In this case, the small countries that survived barely scraped together enough tribute. Huang Quan said that he would forget about it. The small countries that survived were simply grateful and said that they would not forget to pay tribute every year in the future.
So many tributes, valuable ones, and those that could be used as tributes were naturally sent back as tributes. After all, this part cannot be greedy. However, due to the large amount, they were barely sent out until this year. The remaining grains, livestock, etc., Naturally, Huang Quan and Zhang Ren used it as military rations.
Similarly, the Han Dynasty will not care about the use of grain, livestock, fish, etc. as military rations. After all, this is considered a capture from the front, and both soldiers and generals are eligible to enjoy it.
As for why there are these things in the tributes, it's because Huang Quan is kind and expresses that pearls and jade are not enough, so he can use grain and livestock to make up the number!
If you don’t have enough food and livestock, you can still use dried fish to make up the amount. If you don’t have enough dried fish, dried bananas will also work. Anyway, as long as it’s edible, you can make up the amount.
Those dozen countries can survive thanks to Huang Quan's benevolent policy, although the ratio of food exchange for exotic treasures is very low! But at least it is much better than being destroyed by others.
What's more, the fault itself is theirs, well, you can't reason with it, not to mention that their fists are bigger than your country, so in the face of Huang Quan's policy, the small countries that survived are grateful, and there are even many kings who are Gratitude from the bottom of my heart.
But having said that, anyone who is not grateful from the bottom of his heart will be on Huang Quan's blacklist, and he will be ready to fish for law enforcement when he gets the chance.
Relying on this benevolent policy, Zhang Su and others obtained a large amount of food and livestock. After all, the Indochina Peninsula itself is suitable for growing rice, and the land is not bad.
After emptying the treasury of those guys, Zhang Su calculated the military rations and found that they could still sustain it, so he did not dismiss the recruited southern barbarians.
In fact, the Nanman people didn't really want to disband. The Battle of Pingnan was basically smooth and without any twists and turns due to the calculations of Zhang Su and others.
Therefore, the Nanman people almost had a smooth journey and had a good meal all the way. It was much better than being hungry and full in the forest. Although they had a big fight with the Kushan in the end, they still won a big victory after all. the other party.
Compared with the life they lived in the jungle before, the Nanman people are actually quite satisfied with their current situation. As long as they can be selected as regular soldiers, not only can they have enough food, but they don't have to do any work, and they can only strengthen their combat effectiveness.
As for the war, I followed General Zhang and General Yan and fought so many wars without ever losing, so there is nothing to be afraid of!
The Southern Barbarians didn't take the danger to heart at all. After leaving the forest and entering the Indochina Peninsula, life became better. Even the Southern Barbarians who were not very proficient in farming could grow two crops of rice by just throwing some seeds.
This is also the reason why Zhang Ren, Zhang Su and his group of guys have been operating it since they occupied it. Until now, they only exchange letters and no one has returned. They occupied the Indochina Peninsula and allocated a piece of plain to the Southern Barbarians. They occupied That piece of land suitable for farming was used as a base.
Counting the military camps created by Meng Da and the cookies who walked through the woods to get to that place, the base Zhang Ren has built now is the only one among all the current forward bases in the Central Plains that is self-sufficient.
Although this base is in the wrong location and is not easy to defend, we have to admit that as long as the rivers are properly distributed in the tropical monsoon climate, it is a good place for farming.
So Zhang Renhua made a few moves and placed all the Southern Barbarians who had followed them out of the forest on this geomantic treasure land that had been measured by Kanyu people. In this place, any slash-and-burn farming could produce food.
As for whether this was the right thing to do, Zhang Su said, anyway, the Nanman are also descendants of Jiuli and have the same origin as the Central Plains. Since there is no way to get the Central Plains people to come over, it is better to let the Nanman take over than to be taken over by others.
Besides, the Nanman people themselves admire the culture of the Central Plains, and they are almost of the same culture and race as the Central Plains. If the Nanman people, well, now it has been changed to Jiuli, and the Jiuli brothers have taken over, it can be regarded as the meat rotten in the pot, and no one can eat it. eat.
Therefore, by now, the base east of Wenjia where Zhang Ren was stationed has become a Han Dynasty satellite city composed of more than 50,000 Han soldiers and barbarian soldiers, and more than 500,000 Jiuli brothers who have enclosed land for farming.
However, the city has not yet been built. After all, building a city is such a difficult task that it is not easy to do without professionals. In addition, there are many processes required to build the city. Even if the matter is urgent, a report needs to be given to the Emperor of the Han Dynasty. Let’s talk about the situation.
Now, to put it simply, Zhang Ren made the base blocked in the passage of Guishang's advance. Well, by the way, Zhang Ren did nothing else this year. The remaining 50,000 soldiers were trained.
Of course, Liu Zhang had no chance to know these things, but that didn't mean that Zhang Song and Yan Yan wouldn't know.
However, due to the current situation, Yan Yan could only nod in agreement.
By the way, it's not that Yan Yan looks down on Kushan. If this wave of 150,000 troops from Kushan has similar combat effectiveness to the soldiers who hunted the Wenjia Dynasty before, it's not that Yan Yanchui, he can guarantee that the opponent will never come back!
After all, Liu Zhang was not good at military affairs. After quickly issuing a few important orders, he handed over all the detailed military affairs to Yan Yan. He only gave Yan Yan a fatal order to teach Guishang how to behave no matter what.
"This is for you." Liu Zhang handed the secret letter to Yan Yan.
Because it involved secrets, Liu Zhang could only give them to people he trusted. Although Liu Zhang, the civil and military ministers present, were willing to believe it, the matter was so important that he did not show it in front of others. After handing over the military order, he handed it over to Yan Yan, and then sent a message saying, "This is a secret message from Chang'an. Someone on our side should have infiltrated the high-level officials of Guishang. The main generals of the other side have records. Don't spread it randomly."
When Yan Yan heard this, his face was calm, but he was horrified. Someone could infiltrate the other party's senior management so quickly. This ability is simply shocking.
"I will live up to my lord's trust!" Yan Yan said in an extremely serious tone.
Then Yan Yan quickly browsed it in front of Liu Zhang, and found that there was almost no gap between the military strength and what Liu Zhang said. The only thing that could make Yan Yan moved was the possible existence of the so-called legion comparable to the soul of the army.
As for the two dual-talented super elites, Yan Yan said that he was not timid. The dual-talented troops of the two legions, only ten thousand people, were exhausted. Yan Yan was not a vegetarian, not to mention the vines on their side. Jia soldiers are not vegetarians. As long as they can be blocked, Yizhou will not be afraid of more than 100,000 miscellaneous soldiers!
Of course, Yan Yan also saw more than 20 internal energy leaving the body, but the pressure of this kind of thing was not too great. Without the talent of the legion, Yan Yan would be worthy of the amount of internal energy leaving the body.
The large army combat mode is activated. What are the so-called individual combat masters who can't break the army? Just like the last time, it was really necessary to kill. That wave of 100,000 soldiers sent by Guishang, from the commander to the small soldiers. , as long as Yan Yan is ruthless enough, no one can escape.
[A super elite legion comparable to the Army Soul Legion? ] Yan Yan felt a little pressure in his heart. He was lucky enough to meet Yan Yan, an elite at the level of the Army Soul Corps. He was indeed shocking. If an elite of this level entered the battlefield, as a vanguard, even if Yan Yan had The legion's talent that keeps the legion from collapsing is also very likely to be shattered by the limits brought by the talent.
[Well, it seems that I can only find a way to deal with the miscellaneous soldiers first, and finally surround and annihilate them. They are comparable to the super elite of the Army Soul Legion. Speaking of which, I have never fought against an army of this level. I am lucky enough to see it this time. . 】 Yan Yan suppressed the restlessness in her heart.
Yan Yan had seen the Military Soul Legion during the alliance in Chang'an, but had not fought against it. Based on his feelings about the Military Soul Legion in Chang'an, which were not at full strength, it was difficult for Yan Yan to determine how strong the Military Soul Legion was. Unscientific level.
Liu Zhang also participated in the military parade in Yecheng, but it was difficult for Liu Zhang at his level to tell the difference between super strong and invincible strong. Everyone in Yizhou knew that the Army Soul Legion was very strong, but to what extent it was really hard to tell. There is no accurate judgment.
Therefore, although Yan Yan felt pressure in her heart, if she was to be afraid, Yan Yan was really not afraid!
Then Yan Yan and Liu Zhang looked at each other and handed the secret letter to Zhang Song in person. Only by letting Zhang Song read this kind of secret letter could Yan Yan be sure that nothing would be missed after destroying it.
