Chapter 358 You are a coward

The farming ended a month ago, and Dong Hu had sent away some of his beloved generals, Dong Xiaoyi, Dong Gu, Dong Chong, and Sun Niu. At the same time, General Zhu Wenze, Dong Xin, transferred to Danhan Mountain to replace Zhang Liao's commander Wuwan Yi, and Zhu Wenze was guarded by Yang Xiong, the son of veteran Yang Yi, and Yang Xiong also became the eleventh deputy general of the commander Wan Zu.

Dong Hu made some adjustments to the generals under his name, and he felt more and more that he was short of staff, especially those who were good at internal affairs. However, he also discovered the extraordinaryness of the princess girl he recognized. After thinking about it over and over again, he transferred Yao Yong, the general manager of Shangjun, to Pingcheng, and Yao Shan, who was transferred to Jinyang, was appointed as the left deputy general manager, Yao Yong was appointed as the right deputy general manager, stationed in Pingcheng, and Liu Yue was appointed as the chief envoy of Pingcheng. The position of Shangjun and Xihe County was abolished after Dong Hu took over the entire territory of Bingzhou. The two counties restored the official name of the "prefect" of the Han Dynasty, and Qin Kai, a Mr. Dongjia Academy, was appointed as the prefect of Shangjun, and Duan Ming, was appointed as the prefect of Xihe County. They were both poor scholars from Yuzhou captured by Dong Xiaoyi in the first year of Zhongping. Letting the two serve as prefects was also an attempt by Dong Hu.

The elites of this era must be children of aristocratic families. There are no famous teachers and professors of poor families. They can travel or make friends with elites of aristocratic families to increase their knowledge. Even extremely smart people have much less talent. There are very few poor people who can make some famous. However, most poor people are not useless. It is precisely because they know their situation that they often do not have much ambition and are down-to-earth. They are almost a common characteristic of poor people.

Shangjun and Xihe County are the two poorest counties in the nine counties in Bingzhou. It is not that the three Hetao counties further north are richer than these two counties, but because Shangjun and Xihe County have countless gullies and ravines, but they are still the most prone to drought, and they have no potential for wealth. What about the three Hetao counties? The three Hetao counties are the most essence of the southern grasslands of the desert, and are an existence with unlimited potential.

Shangjun and Xihe County have very few people, and the two counties have only 60,000 people together. Moreover, these two counties are in Dong Hu's defensive interior. Even if Qin Kai and Duan Ming did not do it well, it would not cause too much trouble and would not have much impact on the entire Bingzhou.

Dong Hu implemented parallel control of the prefect and general manager in Bingzhou. The reason for this is that some real military needs are that the three Hetao counties can be divided into three counties or merged into one "Hetao County". The specific reason is that the three Hetao counties are a whole, the Hetao Plain alluvialized by the Yellow River. Before Xiping, there were only 60,000 Han citizens in the three Hetao counties. After the Han soldiers and the Xianbei battle between the Danhanshan, these three counties became a barren ruin. Even if Dong Hu had recaptured the three counties for three years, it had not been able to restore the previous population. This was because the people of Anding County, which belonged to Liangzhou after the chaos in Liangzhou, escaped into Shuofang County to avoid the war. Is it necessary to divide them into three counties?

The salary of a prefect is 2,000 stones. The yield per mu of grain is calculated. Under the circumstances of 30 taxes, the salary of 2,000 stones requires 20,000 mu of land and taxes. Usually, a household with five people can cultivate at most 100 mu of land. Two thousand stone officials need at least 200 families to support them. This almost requires the owner of a small county town to support them. Will there be no officials under the prefect? ​​Are there no officials, soldiers, and yamen runners? There are only 60,000 people in three counties and 10,000 households and 60,000 people. I am afraid that even officials of all sizes and big and small counties in the three counties cannot afford to support them, let alone soldiers, and yamen runners.

The three counties of Hetao established military-level general managers not only because there were few people here and could not afford the officials of the three counties, but more because it was the grassland in the south of the Mo area and the border. Similarly, there were also the general managers of Mobei, Pingcheng (Datong Town), Zhaoyuze Taiyuan general managers, Qiushui Valley (Xuanfu Town). Of course, Qiushui Valley belongs to Youzhou, and Dong Hu could only make Huaxiong the general manager of Xuanfu Town in another form under the name of Wuhuan Yimao's general manager.

Because Dong Hu had scattered 200,000 people from Hedong County, he needed to guard Pingcheng for a period of time and calm people as much as possible. Only when people's hearts were calm could he go to Liangzhou without any worries.

Dong Hu was not short of food. Since he went north to Bingzhou in the first year of Zhongping, he attached great importance to farming and had done his best to stagger the farming season when fighting against foreign countries, blocking all threats as much as possible outside Pingcheng, and striving to create a safe farming and sheep-grazing environment for hundreds of thousands of elderly, weak women and children.

Hundreds of thousands of people are too few. Even if the weather is a little abnormal, it will not affect the arable land near the water source. It has been a bumper harvest every year for several years. Not to mention the sudden increase of 200,000 people, even if there are a few more than 200,000 people, the grain in the barns of Mayi, Jiancheng and Pingcheng is enough to support them for a year. In addition, there are more than 10 million cattle and sheep in Dong Hu's private pasture alone, which is still in the case of supporting tens of thousands of soldiers outside the border.

Dong Hu's pasture basically only supports soldiers and borrows. Even sheep-herding slaves only use sleds to drag grain from Datong Town in winter, using grain as the staple food, rather than cattle and sheep in the pasture. The reason why he did this was because the land was vast and sparsely populated, and there were almost no one in the south of the desert and north of the desert. There were only 60,000 people in Shangjun and Xihe County, which showed that the population was thin!

This is true in Bingzhou and Liangzhou. There are so few people. If they go to war for thousands of miles or to attack the Western Regions, it will be extremely difficult to allocate grain alone, and there are no so many people to transport grain. In this case, the best solution is to drive away the cattle and sheep that walk automatically. In this case, it is necessary to keep enough cattle and sheep to ensure sufficient logistics supplies for the soldiers.

Shangjun, Xihe County, Mobei, and Monan grasslands have almost all become Dong Hu's private pastures. Before going to Liangzhou, the pastures in various places must be seen. The generals garrisoned in various places must carefully explain one or two, and the 200,000 new people must be comforted. He even had no time to meet the magistrate of Huwuwan, but asked Yao Yong and Liu Yue to arrange the matter of Shiyi, and would not pay attention to Luoyang thousands of miles away. Even Cai Yong sent the kingdom of "General Hezhong" Han Sui, the prefect of Jincheng, Ma Teng, the general of Zhenxi, Song Jian, the king of Heshou Pinghan, and others to besiege Chen Cang. He just glanced and threw it aside. Instead of worrying about things thousands of miles away, it would be better to play with his son, but he didn't expect that the little princess was tearful at this time was about to fight fate...

"Bang bang..."

Liu Yan smashed the door hard, and had been smashing the door that had been on the whole day. There was no sound of persuasion outside and no response.

"Let me out--"

"I won't get married-"

...

"Bang."

Liu Yan fell to the ground with her swollen hands, hugging her legs together with her red and swollen hands, covering her red and swollen eyes with her hair. She never expected that everyone was hiding it from her, her father, mother, teacher, closest maid, eunuch... Everyone was lying to her, and she lied to her for more than ten days, until Yu Fuluo came with a betrothal gift...

A sound of footsteps came. Liu Yan, who had not been able to smash the door before, looked like a clay sculpture at this time, just leaning her back against the door, sitting on the ground with her knees in her hands...

"I have seen the prince consort."

"Open the door."

"yes."

...

The sound outside the door did not make Liu Yan move. Even though she listened to the sound of locking and felt the impact of pushing the door behind her back, she did not move. She just hugged her knees tightly until her big hands were about to touch her...

"Bang!"

Liu Yan didn't even think about it, she raised her hand and slapped her red and swollen eyes stared at a man much taller than her.

"Get out!"

...

"Princess……"

"Don't touch me--"

Yu Fuluo Jingjing looked at the angry princess for a while, knelt on one knee again, stretched out his hand to observe her injuries, and was slapped again...

"hehe……"

Yu Fuluo chuckled and looked at the eunuch Zhao Yi, the head of the princess's mansion.

"Let me get back, some things... I'll let this prince consort solve them myself."

Zhao Yi is Zhao Zhong's adopted son. After looking at Liu Yan, he sighed in his heart, but nodded with a smile on his face.

"What the prince consort said is that some things are indeed not something that I am a slave who can interfere, but... the queen loves the princess the most. The princess is younger, so the princess needs to be more careful."

Yu Fuluo smiled and nodded and said, "Don't worry, Eunuch Zhao, my son-in-law has always admired the princess, so he will be careful."

Zhao Yi had no choice but to hold a punch and retreat silently. He with a group of palace maids and eunuchs, and heard the footsteps away. Yu Fuluo turned around and sat on the bed covered by the big red Shujin, touching the smooth silk bedding with one hand, while sighing softly.

"For a princess..."

"Father Khan is dead."

"The Meiji Shanyu Court is gone."

"Even the princess who should belong to me was occupied by that damn mutton soup..."

Yu Fuluo looked at Liu Yan who was staring at him and smiled.

"You don't have to look at me like this. It's because the Han Dynasty owed us the Huns a princess."

Liu Yan sneered: "Did the Han Dynasty still owe you the Xiongnu a King of Jin?"

"snort!"

"It's really a joke!"

Liu Yan thought about the defeat plan that Dong Hu had mentioned, and the Huns he had mentioned, and looked coldly at the man sitting on the bed, and slowly stood up...

"The moment your father conspired to kill Huzheng Shanyu, your father became a traitor to the Huns, and his father was destined to be cut off by others!"

"The moment you killed the eldest son of Huwa, the war between you Huns and Huwa, you Huns had already launched a declaration of war against Huwa and Qiang King of Hehuang. The moment when Gao died in Meiji Shanyuting, the war between you Huns and Huwa began!"

Looking at Yu Fuluo, who looked ferocious, Liu Yan's face was cold.

"Your father conspires to kill Huzheng Shanyu. You and your father are both traitors of the Huns. The Huns in the right side of Shangjun went to war with you. It was not a rebellion, but a fight against thieves!"

"You killed Eunuch Gao and took the lead in provoking Huwa. If Huwa kills you, you will be overestimating your abilities and arrogant!"

"snort!"

"The king who conspires to rebel against you is overestimating his power, and he is arrogant and arrogant, but he is still shameless and covets the land of Taiyuan!"

"Shut up—"

Yu Fuluo was furious and suddenly stood up from the bed, walked to Liu Yan in three or two steps, and raised his hand and slapped the hateful woman to death...

"Why don't you fight?"

"You coward-"
