Chapter 113: Attitude
Zhang Han knew that his eldest brother had this temper, and he couldn't persuade him...... Of course, he stopped the others who were about to get up, and said with a smile: "The big thing is not in a hurry, it has been hard for a year, and before the Lantern Festival, the military division is still quiet, and Taiwan will return to Taiwan, so it will not change dramatically all of a sudden, should we drink or drink, I still have to toast from table to table......"
Around the time of Shen, the banquet dispersed, and several old people had already gone back to rest, and Li Shenming took the congren to a tributary of a nearby Heihe River to go to the winter fishing...... There is no shortage of materials here in Qingcheng, and the fish must be dead when it is transported, Li Shenming loves to eat fresh fish, and he said to Zhang Han that he would send him a copy in the evening, and he would leave the city with people.

Kong Minxing and others went out for many days, and they all went home to reunite with their families.
Like Huang Yucheng and Wang Yan, the family moved to Qingcheng or the nearby Xiaohebao as early as possible, and Wang's family lived in Xiaohebao, and after the meeting, he could go home to reunite with his family.
Xiaohehe Fort is nearly three miles in radius, and there are all kinds of commercial districts, storage areas, military barracks and residential areas, and it is not much worse than Qingcheng to live. As for Kong Minxing and the others' families, of course, they live in Qingcheng, and they are not too far from Li Shenming, Sun Jingting and others.
Zhang Han also drank a lot today, he drank a lot of wine, but he usually doesn't drink much, although there are worries about Taiwan today, but in fact, everyone's mood is still very good, there are few invincibles on the grassland, this large piece of land has actually been in hand, and once the trading city in Mobei is completed, it is the general trend, and you can continue to immigrate to the grassland...... The prosperity of commerce brought a large amount of commercial income, and then used the commercial income to support agricultural immigrants, and then converted the output of agricultural immigrants into commercial profits, as well as pastoral areas, mines, and the entire ecosystem of commerce, agriculture and industry were established, which is completely different from the Han and Tang people's practice of only building military fortresses and small-scale tuntian areas on the grassland, which is the real way to long-term peace and stability.

"Wen Lan stays."
When they walked to the gate, Jiang Yi and the others were coming over with cloaks and waiting to put them on Zhang Han, but the silver ingots caught up behind them.
"Silver ingots." Zhang Han was a little drunk, patted the silver ingot on the shoulder with a smile, and said, "I haven't seen you when you drink today, aren't you Mongolians quite capable of drinking?" I see, you don't like to drink our Han wine, you like to drink your goat's milk wine. I heard that the wine is indeed wonderful, so let's ask someone to prepare more in two days, and you and Baiyin Taiji and they will come to me for a good drink, how about it? ”
Zhang Han's attitude towards the Mongolian Taiji, which are solidly attached to silver ingots and Baiyin, has always been very good, and he has always been interested in wooing them.
Of course, it is much more natural to have silver ingots, after all, there is really a friendship.
"I have something to say...... "The silver ingot was a little slurred, and his face was not very natural.
"Say?" Zhang Han smiled: "What else do you and my brother have to hide?" ”
"That's good." The silver ingot made up his mind and said: "Wenlan, it is certain that you will mix in the grassland and become the lord of this land in the future, I want to ask you what is your attitude towards us Mongols?" ”
"It's a bit of a big topic." Zhang Han's face became serious, he waved his hand, stopped Jiang Yi and the others, turned to the silver ingot, and said, "My attitude is quite clear. The Mongols who fought with us atone for their sins with labor, and after the atonement, we ruled the people, who could work with us to earn money, become soldiers, trade trade, and go back to their own homes to graze. In short, the choice is in your hands, whether it is the king of Shunyi, or Zhutaiji, many nobles, each Etuoke, all herdsmen, I will treat them equally. I won't talk to you here, and Yusheng's goal and strategy is of course to occupy the entire steppe, but we have never considered exterminating the Mongols and bringing you into our system, which is the real ultimate goal. ”
After Zhang Han finished speaking, he thought about it and said, "Is it that last time I went back to Qingcheng, I didn't see King Shunyi for the first time, which caused some people to have opinions?" I won't get used to this problem, I am the biggest in the system of He Yusheng, you have to accept this reality sooner or later, what a big sweat, what Taiji, in my eyes is actually meaningless, cooperate with me, there will be dignity and dignity and a good life, if you don't cooperate, the end will be ugly, you can talk to them about this, it can be regarded as a beating. ”
Silver Ingot only then fully saw Zhang Han's domineering side, he had always seen Zhang Han's easy-going businessman face before, and even the feeling of smiling friends and brothers, at this moment, he knew that the other side of this person was so domineering and completely suppressed by force, and Silver Ingot knew that Zhang Han's warning would definitely not be just a lie and threat, but would become a reality at any time.
This is the feeling given by the real superiors, in contrast, although the original Bu Shitu Khan was a great khan, he was too weak.
It may also be related to strength, really powerful people can put on a real superior posture, if the strength is not enough, it may not be convincing.
Silver Ingot felt a palpitation, and he said, "I know, if there are really people who don't know what to think about and shouldn't think about, we Mongolians will take care of these things ourselves." ”
There was indeed an undercurrent among the Mongols, and quite a few nobles agreed to surrender to Hutchison in a panic, when they only wanted to survive, but as time went on, they wanted more.
"Recently, due to the cold weather, the grain reserves of the herdsmen in our various departments are seriously insufficient...... "I know that the Military and Political Department is also examining the reserves and the number of herdsmen in various pastoral areas to distribute grain to survive the cold winter, but I must remind Wenlan that this is a good opportunity to gain the true loyalty of ordinary Mongolians." Wen Lan, what a good blueprint you have drawn, if too many people die this winter, this hatred cannot be erased by the blueprint of the future. Dying in a war and freezing to death in winter are two different things. ”
Zhang Han was shocked when he heard this, and he said: "The military division's movements are too slow? ”
"It's too slow." Silver Ingot looked at Zhang Han and said: "In the past two years, we have lost a large number of Dingkou and herds, and this year many people have been escorted by you to copper mines to mine copper and farm land, and serve all kinds of miscellaneous labor, and there is a shortage of men in all departments, and the weather is too cold after winter, and a small number of herds have also frozen to death, and all departments are in a famine, and a large number of herdsmen have completely run out of food, and some people have begun to starve to death." ”
Zhang Han was really startled, as if he had been pricked in the back, and he muttered, "Why didn't anyone tell me, and didn't see the shepherds fleeing or rebelling?" ”
"This is the experience of your Han people, right?" Silver Ingot smiled bitterly: "We Mongolians will not swing knives at the nobles, and those who lose deserve to starve to death, this is the tradition on the grassland, the winner can choose to kill the old people and nobles in the loser tribe, leaving the herdsmen and civilians, or you can choose to let the entire tribe die under the knife, you didn't kill us, but you choose to starve us to death...... Taiji don't know what you think, who dares to say? Besides, for the nobles, these shepherds are insignificant, they will not pay too much attention, I came today, and it is Li who has been muttering in my ear, this woman, who used to hate us Mongolians, and now she is yelling at me to speak for the shepherds, sometimes I don't know what kind of temper she is, but I just listen to her, do you say I am sick? ”
"Your symptoms are called strict wife, and the condition is not serious, and many Han men also have this problem." Zhang Han couldn't help laughing, thinking of the sturdy Li family, remembering the past when he had given this woman to the silver ingot in a prank, and the silver ingot was happy to accept it, six or seven years had passed in a flash, and a warm feeling arose in his heart.
"Jiang Yi, we're not going home." Zhang Han instructed Jiang Yi: "Go back to the house and say, I and the silver ingot Taiji will go to a few tribes in the north to have a look." ”
Thirty miles north of Qingcheng, there are Mongol pasture tribes, no closer is allowed, there are more than a dozen small military platforms and fire road piers to separate the Mongol area from Qingcheng, the troops of the first regiment and a small number of artillery and cavalry patrol in the north, the cavalry is gradually canceling the formation, and the dragoons or lancers patrol in the north.
Jiang Yi had no intention of dissuading Zhang Han...... Everyone knows that there is no way to persuade this kind of thing.
The wind and snow outside have not stopped, Zhang Han and the others went out of the city from the north gate, and came out of the warm room like spring, even if they put on a big wool cloak, they felt cold and biting, Zhang Han had his wives and concubines with rabbit fur and cloth made of horseback gloves, even so, riding in such an extremely cold weather only about a quarter of an hour of effort, the hands were already blown cold, and the presence of the hands was almost not felt.
Looking at the silver ingots and other Mongolians, they are all empty-handed to control the reins, their hands are purple and black, after being blown by the wind for a long time, their hands are such a color, their hands and faces are smeared with oil, using these oils to keep out the cold, Zhang Han felt ashamed, compared to these people, he is still too delicate.
Outside the city to the Daqingshan Mountain Range, there is a snow-white everywhere, and the mountains that stretch majestically and can't see the edge of the Daqingshan Mountain Range are also hidden in a piece of silver white.
Dressed in gray and black military robes or cotton armor, the soldiers in gray and black cloaks rode their war horses on the snow and galloped rapidly, and the hooves of the horses splashed mud and snow with a dull sound.
After running half the way, several bunkers appeared on the horizon ahead, the bunkers were scattered, and they were all separated by a range of about three or four miles, and each pier or each military station had long-range firearms, and each military station would have a small mobile force to support each pier in wartime.
When Zhang Han and the others approached, they faintly heard the sound of cannons, which was the piers who had discovered them a few miles away.
The military division has stopped mobilizing troops and horses, so the arrival of a cavalry of more than 100 people is regarded as a potential enemy in a large force, and tension in the fort military platform is inevitable.
Jiang Yi sent a few light horsemen to ride forward, and went to pass Zhang Han to pass by, while the brigade stopped and rested for a while.
"When I was a child, it wasn't as cold as it was so wicked." Silver Ingot rubbed his hands and said to Zhang Han: "It's only been a little while, and it has snowed three or four times, and the snow is estimated to be over the knee in half a month. ”
