Zhao Ming's words made Zhang He stunned.
"Sir Zhao, I really haven't thought about this problem, because I don't feel much every time I go into battle."
As he said that, Zhao Ming was a little confused. After thinking about it for a while, he explained again,
"Let's put it this way, Chief Zhao, the competition here in our grassland is very fierce. We fight for food every three days with a small fight and five days with a big fight.
Fighting for more people and pasture, so those who have lived here since childhood will only think that killing is a rare and common thing, and there is no pressure at all.
Mr. Zhao, I generally understand your situation. "
Listening to what Zhang He said, Zhao Ming also nodded in agreement.
Although death is very common these days, the frequency of active killing in other places is really far less than that in the grassland.
These days, people in Tibetan areas still have the custom of using human bones as utensils for human sacrifice, which shows that sparsely populated areas actually follow the ancient practices.
"But when it comes to relieving stress, aren't you doing it, Chief Zhao? But you have to pay attention to moderation~ You are full of energy at your age.
But it does not mean that you have the capital to squander it freely. Practice more pile exercises, squats, toes on the ground, and levator on weekdays. These will be good for you. "
Zhang He has something to say.
This is naturally the kind of thing Zhao Ming often asks Tao Yan to do when he has nothing to do recently.
There is no way, the grassland is getting colder day by day. On weekdays, apart from taking the brothers for daily exercises during the day, they basically eat and drink in the camp.
It is true that this food, clothing, lust and lust are true.
Zhao Ming couldn't help but touch his nose in embarrassment.
Now most of the herdsmen in Huozhongtun have migrated here in order to quickly gather manpower in a short period of time.
Now Zhao Ming's camp has been expanded several times. Not only does it have storage rooms dedicated to storing cow dung and grain, but it also has separate rooms of various sizes.
Zhang He lives next door to Zhao Ming.
I guess I didn't pay much attention to it usually, so I must pay attention to cover that bitch Tao Yan's mouth next time.
Thinking about it carefully, it really shouldn't happen. The brothers who followed him to the north all lived the life of monks, but he, the boss, became more relaxed.
Thinking of this, Zhao Ming thought of another thing, and it was particularly serious.
"By the way, Master Zhang, what was the ratio of the number of women to the number of men in your Huo Zhongtun tribe in the past? What was the situation in each tribe?"
"Well...our Huo Zhongtun is considered good, with a male to female ratio of about 2:1.
As for the tribes that migrated from the east, the ratio of men to women is seriously imbalanced, reaching 4:1 or more. "Zhang He shook his head helplessly.
"There are so many more men than women? Doesn't that mean that many people are unable to marry? But why is this so? Aren't there more male casualties on the grassland?"
Zhao Ming was surprised. This was a very unreasonable phenomenon.
Zhang He was silent for a moment, and then sighed, "Sir Zhao, I thought you would realize this problem earlier.
In fact, this is already the norm, and this is the case here in Inner Mongolia. The main reason is that large tribes plunder small tribes, and women are also targets of plunder.
Therefore, films such as Darhan and Maoming'an actually have no shortage of women, and some of the people who hold important positions in the escorts have several women.
If a person is in the escort, it means that this person has multiple heirs.
Reproduction in the grassland is the main task.
This point has appeared since the previous dynasty and has become more and more intense. Have you heard of the chicken annihilation? "
"this....."
Zhao Ming really didn't know about this, it sounded a bit derogatory.
"Oh, it's just a man's business. This is really unethical. But it can't be stopped.
We at Huo Zhongtun are okay. I take the boys out for training every day. After I have vented all my energy, I naturally have nothing to do.
But this kind of thing is not uncommon in other small and medium-sized tribes! "
Hearing Zhang He tell the truth, Zhao Ming felt that his outlook on life was shattered.
Didn’t you expect something like this to happen in the grasslands during this period?
However, Zhao Ming did know some of the issues of the previous dynasty mentioned by Zhang He, such as the previous dynasty prohibiting intermarriage between Manchus and Han, and intermarriage between Mongolian and Han.
This was a decision made by the previous dynasty to strengthen its rule, but it laid the foundation for civil strife in the early Republic of China.
Things like the independence of Outer Mongolia and the invasion of Outer Mongolia are actually problems left over by the prohibition order.
If the marriage had been realized from the beginning, the Manchus and Hans, and the Mongols and Hans would have been one family long ago.
After all, there were many caravans going to the grasslands for trade in ancient times. If it were not for the ban, they would have been integrated long ago.
"And Sir Zhao, that kind of thing is another matter. Sometimes a mother-in-law has to be used by the whole family. Otherwise, if I have a mother-in-law, my son will have to be a bachelor if he can't find a wife.
From now on, if there is no more men left in the tent, it will be impossible to live this life.
According to Zhongyuan, he would be outnumbered by other companies and bullied to death. "
Everything Zhang He said was shocking to Zhao Ming, and it absolutely subverted the three concepts of ethics.
"But Chief Zhao, there is a way to solve it!"
"oh?"
"That's a deal with Outer Mongolia!"
"Trading with Outer Mongolia?"
"Yes! Don't think Mao Ming'an and Darhan just exploited the tribes below to obtain a large number of women.
But in fact, they did not exploit the tribes below much, and more women were obtained through trade with Outer Mongolia in exchange for weapons.
It is said that a gun can be exchanged for several cattle and sheep, and it can also be exchanged for a woman.
In the beginning, most of the women in the two films were exchanged in this way, but later I felt it was too much of a loss.
This woman was also saturated, so they simply traded animals, not women. "
Zhang He's news also shocked Zhao Ming.
What is this nonsense?
Comparing the two sides, the drought dies and the flood dies.
"Are there many women from Outer Mongolia?" Zhao Ming asked.
"Of course! The proportion of women in Outer Mongolia is much higher than ours. There are many reasons." Zhang He nodded.
Only then did Zhao Ming remember that it seemed like this would be the case in later generations.
Later generations of Outer Mongolia seemed to be polygamous. If you look at the family photos of Outer Mongolia, you can see a man surrounded by a bunch of beautiful wives.
And there are too many kilns there, and there are millions of employees in the capital.
However, Zhao Ming could only think about the matter of trading with Outer Mongolia. How could he get away with doing business with Boss Guo?
If he trades with Outer Mongolia, this hat on his head will probably come to an end. It is hard to say whether he will eat peanuts by then.
"We'll talk about this later. Since brothers have no way to vent their energy, let's practice more.
However, I have recently asked the brothers to have enough food and drink to keep up with their training. This food and drink cannot be missed! "
Zhao Ming waved his hand. How could he still have the energy to help his subordinates solve the single problem? He didn't know if the Maoming'an Department and the Darkhan Department would go crazy.
But near noon, ten fast horses were coming from the south.
The visitors were brothers stationed in Zhangjiakou. Because there were many tribes passing from the south to the north, it was impossible for one person to cross the grassland alone. Therefore, these ten brothers were all equipped with guns and fast horses, which was much safer.
"But a letter came from home?"
Zhao Ming was somewhat looking forward to it. This was the only possibility for these brothers to come back.
