When this sister heard the horseshoe tax at first glance, she didn't know what was going on, but later through the translation of the Han official, she understood what Gao Yue meant.

There is a tax in Xifan, called "cow leg rent", the ox is four-legged, and the ox leg rent is a quarter of the amount you raise for herding livestock.

And what about the "horseshoe tax" set by Gao Yue? It is to ask this group of party items, while staying and pasting, to graze war horses for the Jingyuan camp, which is a matter of expertise for them, as Yuan Zhi said, "Seek pearls to drive the sea, and pick jade on Jingheng; Buy party horses in the north, and capture Tibetan parrots in the west". Specifically, Gao Yue exempted the Meiqing clan from paying taxes, but instead they had to fight with horses.

In addition, the grass tax is in season, and the sister light party item still has to pay the grass, but it can also be discounted by paying the horse.

As for the side army, it is the "city side", and the party is a system where all the people are soldiers, and you can use quail to graze herd, and you don't have to pay taxes, but the obligation is that when I go out to the camp, you have to mobilize the children of your own clan to go into battle together, which is the side army.

Although there are still remnants of the cityside system after the Middle Tang Dynasty, most of the foreign soldiers have joined the northwest border army and become a fixed number of soldiers, and the Han soldiers are not separated from each other. But Gao Yue wants to deliberately separate: "Since it is a close army on the side of Jingzhou, if there is something to go out to chase the collection, there is nothing to do in the tribe to make a living, the outside of the department uses the Tang law, the ministry uses the Fan law, and the city is mutually beneficial. ”

In addition, Gao Yue also promised his sister to beg for a light horse, and if his colony is strong in the future, he will support them to "pay the race" to other party clans.

The so-called "reward race" is "vendetta", that is, the ancient "blood revenge", and the sense of revenge of the party is particularly strong, in Fang Cai's words, Gao Yue heard that the sister light horse begging is "hatred of Xifan, hatred of Hui, hatred of Dongshan, Nanshan, Liufu, Pingxia and other internal relocation of the party clan", then just use the custom of the party to control them well, you can work with the battalion soldiers, envelop their own armed forces.

"I am willing to make an alliance with the envoy of the high abbot!" Sister Qingma is also a happy person, after learning that the other party is willing to provide them with "living pastureland", and exempt from forced labor, no miscellaneous taxes, naturally very satisfied.

Then the sister patted her thigh, and the curtain behind him was opened, and Gao Yue and Liu Demuro only saw a large number of party women pouring out, wearing Xifan's makeup, all of them were ochre, and they were not afraid of men at all, noisy, singing and dancing, which was very different from the daughter of the Han family.

Immediately afterwards, I found out that these were all the wives and concubines of my sister and a beggar, no less than twenty people.

"This is our tribe's house!" While speaking, the sister lightly pulled the middle-aged over, inserted her big hand into her clothes, and touched it.

Before Gao Yue could ask what a girl was, Sister Qingma begged for the next sentence of the woman's introduction to the woman, which made Liu Demuro's goat milk squirt out in one gulp, "This is also my uncle!" ”

Gao Yue was also dumbfounded, and his sister pulled the drunken and laughing young woman over and introduced, "This is my maid and my younger sibling." ”

Then the younger sister Qingma begged at the sky and purred two words, probably praying that the souls of his uncle and younger brother, who had been taken away by the Immortal Heaven, would continue to protect him, because he took great care of their wives.

"Diyi, Diyi!" Liu Demuro wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, and kept complaining to Gao Yue, "I have long heard that party men will steam their mothers and sisters-in-law, the so-called father dies and his wife and stepmother, and his brother dies and his wife is widowed. ”

Lewdness is the flow of water from top to bottom; Steaming, on the other hand, is the flow of qi from the bottom to the top, which is generally a metaphor for the younger generation raping the elders.

Gao Yue glanced at this old man's eyes, thinking to himself, doesn't our Holy Lord Li Tang also have such customs?

At this time, the aunt of the sister light horse beggar looked at Gao Yue twice, and then stretched out her hand to look at the air, and howled a few times in a crazy tone.

"The so-called witch is the witch of our tribe, and now she wants to ask the meaning of Changshengtian, see if this harmony is in line with the meaning of the medicine dragon god, and take the sheep!"

In this hundred-son tent, many women of the Meiqing clan began to beat the drums like crazy, shaking their hair and braiding the tips, and the drums were beating with their rhythmic calls.

A little lamb was brought up, and the black bean-like eyes stared timidly at Gao Yue in the seat, and the uncle and aunt of the sister light horse beggar screamed from time to time, around the frightened lamb, barefoot and dancing a strange dance, babbling in her mouth, "Is this chanting a mantra?" Gao Yue thought so in his heart.

Then the aunt took the corn and spat at it twice, and then stuffed it into the mouth of the lamb who was choked, and the horns of the lamb were held by her, and they were so violently pulled that the lamb bleated in pain.

"High Angel, look at the results of this Shengbajiao (the Dangxiang tribe uses lamb leg bones to divinate and call Bajiao, and killing sheep and taking dirty divination is called Shengbajiao)!" As he spoke, the younger sister took out his dagger and threw a cold flower in the air, which was caught by his uncle and mother.

"Baaa The dagger stabbed into the lamb's neck like lightning, and the blood rushed out, staining the white fur red.

"Uh-huh, ahh When they saw the blood, the group of party women became even more crazy, leaning forward and back, and the drums almost lifted the roof of the tent.

The lamb fell to its knees and died, and the aunt neatly cut open its belly and pulled out the bloody internal organs.

"Alas!" Liu Demuro held the seal of the envoy with one hand, and covered his eyes with the other hand.

Then the uncle and mother took out the little lamb's still trembling heart, the blood on her face and hands was pouring down, revealing the pupils of Bai Chacha, grinning her teeth, and smiling at Gao Yue, probably signaling Gao Yue to take over the divination with her own hands.

"Yi Song, ......"

But Gao Yue had calmly gotten up, walked to his uncle, and then stretched out his hand, grabbed the heart of the sheep, and then turned to his sister and took it out with one hand.

At the same time, my aunt said a few words.

"I said, there is no bleeding wound in the sheep's heart, and this peace alliance is recognized by the Immortal Heaven."

Soon a pit was dug on the oath field outside the tent, and a Qiang slave was tied behind her back and knelt in the pit, and the surrounding tribesmen were dancing torches, illuminating the twilight around them.

In front of the pit there was a gate made of sharp swords, and in the light of the torches the blades glittered, and the chiefs of the younger tribes, Gao Yue, Liu Demur, and all the tribes passed under the sword gate, and then killed a cow and a monkey on the spot. Gao Yue walked over to the two sacrificed corpses, dipped his hand in their hot blood, and forcibly wiped the blood on his lips.

"I, my sister is a beggar, and I have made an alliance with the High Angel on this day. If there is no faith in the alliance, the grain and wheat will not be born, the men and women will be bald, the six animals will die, and the snake will be in the account! ”

"On this day, Gao Yue, the envoy of Jingyuan and the envoy of Jingyuan, was ordered by the Holy Lord to make an alliance with the party Xiangmei Qingshi and break the alliance, if there is any violation of the alliance, he will be killed immediately!"
