Chapter 574 The younger brother of the past, the boss of today
Perhaps Yuan Shu was a little wary of Jingxiang because of Sun Jian''s defeat and death, so Fei Qian and his party went north after leaving Jingxiang, crossing Liangdong, and crossing the river at Xiaopingjin without encountering any unexpected interceptions. .
After all, the entire Luoyang area is now empty, and the cavalry led by Fei Qian are all veterans. They spread it out like a net, picking up all the scattered scouts they encountered, causing many local counties to think that they were A large army was attacking from somewhere. After they huddled up and defended, they tentatively sent some people to check. By that time, Fei Qian and his party had already gone far away.
? Along the way, people like Fei Qian were not idle for much. Tai Shiming had been rushing to manage the workshop from the beginning, so he basically mingled with the craftsmen of the Huang family.
Zao Zhi, on the other hand, found a blacksmith. He had some new ideas and ideas about some farm tools he saw in the fields of Jingxiang. He had a great time discussing with the blacksmith. Sometimes the two of them held their own opinions and were at odds with each other. When they couldn''t do it, they would argue with each other for a few words, and then agreed to build one when they arrived in Bingzhou, and compete to see who was doing the right thing...
?Perhaps Fei Qian himself was the son-in-law of the Huang family, so neither Xu Shu, nor Zao Zhi, nor Tai Shiming felt that there was anything wrong with communicating with the craftsmen in this way, or that there was any loss of status.
?At this time, the scholars of the Han family did not feel that they were extremely noble and wanted to distance themselves from ordinary people like the nerds of later generations. In the Han Dynasty, many scholars were even proud of the fact that they could cultivate two acres of land, open a vegetable garden, and plant a few fruit trees, just like jujube. Sometimes they would spend time in the mud fields with old farmers every day, and no one would say anything weird. Some of them are also words of praise.
Xu Shu, on the other hand, was discussing Xianbei-related matters with Fei Qian all the way. Xu Shu had obviously done a lot of homework in advance specifically for Xianbei. Like Fei Qian, Xu Shu also felt that Xianbei''s sudden rise was inexplicable.
?Xianbei was originally just a small nomadic nation, but today, it has become a behemoth.
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
The Xiongnu, now in decline, were the ancient nomadic people that arose in the Inner and Inner Mongolia regions in later generations, and Xianbei was just a bullied underground brother of the Xiongnu at first.
At that time, when the Huns were tyrannical, they ravaged the Donghu fishing and hunting tribe that arose in the Greater Khingan Mountains. Then the entire Donghu tribe was divided into two tribes, one was the Wuhuan tribe later, and the other was the Xianbei tribe that fled further north. The mountains became the Xianbei people.
These two ethnic groups crouched at the feet of the Xiongnu Chanyu Maodun. They rushed into the Han territory as the vanguard. They were only known to the Han people when they were carrying out the great unity of the ethnic minorities southward. It turned out that there were two such people in a certain place. nationality…
Therefore, whether it is Wuhuan or Xianbei, they do not have their own independent culture. They learn more from the Xiongnu. Whether it is language, writing, or even customs, they are almost the same.
Later, the Xiongnu fell under the friendly treatment of the Han Dynasty. The two younger brothers took the opportunity to pick up the property of the original boss. Wuhuan crossed Youzhou and Jizhou. In order to accumulate internal conflicts among the ethnic minorities, the Xiongnu The North Royal Court, which was empty due to the defense of the Han army, was heartbroken; while Xianbei silently began to go west from the Daxingan Mountains, annexing the large and small tribes that originally belonged to the Northern Xiongnu...
Then Xianbei was so quick that in just a few decades, it established a huge empire that spanned the entire Asian continent, from the extreme westward area under the Altai Mountains to the Greater Khingan Mountains in the east and even extended to the eastern sea. Tribal groups! It became an ethnic minority that directly targeted the Han Dynasty and had a strong desire to establish a Greater Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere.
but…
“Fortunately, Tan Shihuai is dead...” Fei Qian said.
? Xu Shu also nodded and said: "That''s right, well, fortunately Tan Shihuai is dead."
Tan Shihuai, a man of great talent and strategy, who was like the second most powerful Xianbei commander in Maodun, inexplicably failed just when he was about to launch a large-scale cultural integration campaign with the Han Dynasty.
As soon as Tan Shihuai died, Xianbei, which had been integrated for a short time, suddenly collapsed into three groups, and Fei Qian was about to target one of them.
Xu Shu said: "Nomadic people have three important things, ''water and grass'', ''cut grass'' and ''salt land''. All kinds of disputes arise from this. In the past, because there were so many people, there was not enough food for the farm animals to hunt and hunt. I heard that the people in Lou were good at Wangpu, so they attacked the country of Junren in the east and captured more than a thousand families. They moved to the Qin River to fish for food." After saying this, he glanced at Fei Qian.
Fei Qian nodded and said: "I almost understand what Yuan Zhi means. This is what I am doing now, but it is not a long-term solution..." As the old saying goes, food is the most important thing for the people.
But this is the innate difference between farming peoples and nomadic peoples.
???The population of the farming people accidentally overpopulated. When encountering natural or man-made disasters, they would yell: "Rebel!" Then they would pull the person on their head off and sit on it themselves...
????The nomadic people accidentally overpopulated the population, and encountered natural and man-made disasters. Most of them yelled: "Grab his mother!" and then went south to carry out ethnic integration...
So now Fei Qian is supporting the southern Xiongnu Yu Fulo Shanyu, instilling in him that although the Han people are not very ferocious, they are very vengeful and will remember them for several lifetimes. It is not worth robbing them, so they should still be friends and support them. With your sword and gun, have you seen that guy in the north? He has a bearskin coat, caviar, and a beautiful woman. Well, brother, it depends on whether you can hug him from left to right...
??Then contact those small countries that were eager to die when they were rubbed by Xianbei in the early years. Just like they did with the Xiongnu back then, they wielded various small hoes to dig into the corners of the nomads. The Han people are very good at this...
?However, barbarians are also fools. They have been deceived too many times and will always remember where they fell. Therefore, this method sometimes does not work well and cannot be fully counted on.
Anyway, it’s almost just a meaning.
So if we want to completely solve the conflict between the nomads in the north, these little tricks cannot completely solve the problem, because as long as they are tricks, they will be exposed sooner or later...
So Fei Qian said quietly: "Actually, I have been thinking about it, referring to the previous practices in the Western Regions..."
Xu Shu turned his head sharply, his eyes widened, and he was so surprised that he could hardly speak: "Zhonglang! You said, this...this is..."
??Xu Shu always thought that he was a bold enough person, but he didn''t expect that he got an even bolder idea from Fei Qian...

I just don’t know how long this traffic can last...
PS: Make a short joke:
Na Wenruo was feeling sad when he suddenly heard a sad sound on the hillside. He thought to himself: "Everyone laughs at me for being a bit crazy. How can I be a fool?"
Thinking about it, I looked up and saw that it was Fengxiao.
When Wen Ruo saw it, he said: "Sigh! Who do I know? It turns out to be this cruel and short-lived person..."
As soon as he said the word "short-lived", he covered his mouth again, let out a long sigh, pulled away and left...
