Under Wei Cao's explanation, Wei Xiong finally understood what was going on on the grassland. The great shock, joy and shame almost made this big man feel helpless. If what my uncle said was right, all the problems that had been worrying him for many days had disappeared? Those powerful enemies who made it difficult for the Jin people to cope with the difficulties of the Jin people in the source were wiped out in the hands of the young man in front of them? But...... This young man's attitude of being so light and simple does not look like a commander of Weiling Northern Xinjiang.

This...... What's going on? The Great Jin Dynasty has clearly seen the decay of the last days over the years, when did it become so strong? Could it be that I have lived in the grassland for many years, and I don't even know that the outside world has been turned upside down? Or, those Jin people who couldn't bear the mediocrity of the Great Jin Dynasty and fled to the grassland are crazy?

Thousands of questions swirled in his mind, and Wei Xiong only felt dizzy, not even noticing that Wei Cao was a little harsh and made him apologize to Lu Yao. However, Lu Yao glared fiercely at He Yun, who was still frowning, and comforted Wei Xiong with a smile: "Being able to think about the surrounding situation so thoroughly shows that Brother Shiyuan is far-reaching, and he is not just a brave general called by Deyuan Gong. It's really because we came in a hurry, and we didn't send someone to report the military situation in time, and I asked Brother Shiyuan not to be surprised. ”

Lu Yao was so polite, which made Wei Xiong feel more and more apologetic. He was not a man of words, and his inquiry was entirely out of the anxiety that had been entangled in his heart for many days. Since it turned out that his worries were all nonsense, he didn't say more, and after bowing his head deeply to Lu Yao, he took Lu Yao's reins with one hand and was about to go to the camp.

Where will Lu Yao be led by this leading general in the Wei clan. He hurriedly took a step forward and took the reins in his hands.

Such an act is really humble, and although it is not contrived, it is not without reason.

The land is vast and sparsely populated, and after the Hu people have been raging for many years, there are only a few thousand Jin people surviving. After Lu Yao served as the Taishou of Daijun, his troops expanded rapidly, but he was limited by the small number of Daijun Jin people, and his administration was often inconvenient. Therefore, this time he went north to fight, and the Jin people who gathered in Weiyuan were the main purpose. If he can take these tens of thousands of Jin people into his own hands, it will be enough to stabilize the situation in the three counties of the entire Daidi, as he expected before, the business of Qi Huan and Jin Wen can be expected.

However, what he saw and heard from the annexed states to Youzhou and then to the grasslands of northern Xinjiang gave Lu Yao a new understanding. He expected that even with the power of defeating the army of Duan Xianbei and occupying the grassland on the dam, it would not be easy to completely subdue this homeless people who had been in a foreign land for decades.

After the reign of Emperor Wu, the court of the Great Jin Dynasty quickly fell into a terrible chaos like the end of the Han Dynasty under the full swing of a group of faint monarchs and ministers. On the 10,000-mile northern frontier from the Liaohai Sea to the desert, there are scenes of officials being harsh and arrogant, and high-ranking families acting recklessly. The people were forced to the point of unbearable abuse by the endless abuse, so they left their families and businesses and fled to the grasslands in search of a way to survive.

A considerable number of these displaced people in the grasslands of northern Xinjiang fled to the Xianbei territory because they could not bear the stupid rule of the imperial court. In the eyes of these people, the court and officials of the Great Jin Dynasty are like beasts of a flood and cannot be approached. Although life under the rule of the Xianbei people is not dignified and safe, it is far better than the precarious days under the rule of the Great Jin Dynasty. Under the propaganda of his generation, even the leaders of the exiles, such as Weixiong, were strongly influenced by him, and subconsciously expressed considerable rejection of the imperial court. Before Lu Yao sent troops to the source, Wei Cao also expressed in the conversation that he did not ask for the slightest indifference to the imperial court. This is of course because he is well versed in the reality of the imperial court, and adopts a negotiation strategy; It does represent the mentality of the displaced people to a certain extent.

Lu Yao earnestly hopes that he can gain the trust of these homeless people and establish a good image in front of them. Therefore, he could only choose to lead the three or five light horsemen to come in advance and try to show some water grinding skills.

The group entered through the main gate of the camp guarded by Wei Xiong, and walked along the winding road by the stream to the depths of the source. After bypassing a dense forest that stretched for miles, the eyes were full of joy. Here is the confluence of the five springs of the source of the water, and the contrast with the reckless grassland outside the source is great, as far as the eye can see, it is like a picture scroll, within a radius of more than 20 miles, there are green mountains and low mountains, clear water and green trees, which make people suddenly think that they are in the southern water zone. Look closely, there are canals, Qianmo intertwined, a tuft of grain, millet and vegetables and the like, exuding bursts of fragrance.

Surrounding the area is a dense community of dock forts. In Lu Yao's eyes, he could naturally immediately appreciate the defense system formed by the interconnection of these dock forts. If a considerable number of troops are stationed in these forts built on the basis of mountains and rivers, coupled with the piers, rock fortresses and small villages that hold the water forests in the distance, it is enough to defend the enemy from the outside.

The Wei clan's operation in Weiyuan has reached such a point, Lu Yao was a little surprised and exclaimed: "The mountains are lingering, the water is circulating, and the city is solid...... The geography is enough to control the conflict between the Hu and the horse, and the people's hearts are more of the same hatred for the enemy, no wonder the Luo Department and the Puliuru Department have been attacked many times by tens of thousands of Xianbei elites. ”

Wei Cao smiled and shook his head: "General, I have been ordered by Bo Yugong to go deep into the grassland, and it has been more than thirty years now. After more than 30 years of hard work, there is a place for the source to exist. Although he has a small gain, he will eventually succumb to Hu'er, where can he compare with the general's feat of expanding the northern frontier. ”

Lu Yao waved his hand again and again. He was able to attack the grassland of Bashang because he took advantage of the God-given opportunity of Tuoba Xianbei's civil strife. For the old man in front of him who influenced Tuoba Xianbei's politics with the power of one person, he did have a lot of respect. If it weren't for this, he wouldn't have dared to leave the army lightly.

Of course, the area around Weiyuan is not the land captured by the Daijun army, and considering the particularity of the Jin people, it is not suitable to use troops to enter the country at present.

Lu Yao emphasized military discipline countless times when leading troops in Bingzhou, out of the instinct of the traverser, he hated the behavior of the soldiers and bandits of the common people, and tried his best to make his subordinates be strict in military discipline and not commit any crimes in the autumn. But the ancients said that when the water is clear, there are no fish, and when people are observed, there are no fugitives. A lot of times, after all, you can't go too far.

After all, he doesn't have the legendary spirit of the king, and he can't bow down when the tiger's body shakes his subordinates. The soldiers are soldiers who kill the enemy, asking for a good time, if they can't provide heavy rewards for the generals, and blindly restrain them, who wants to accept it? Even when governing a small army, Lu Yao often turned a blind eye to some behaviors that were not too out of line; When there are thousands of soldiers and horses under his command, ensuring combat effectiveness becomes the most important thing, and everything else has to make way for it. What's more, most of Lu Yao's current forces are from Daidi Zahu, in Daijun and south of the Bashang grassland, he deliberately indulges them to attack and plunder the Hu tribes everywhere, so as to cultivate the blood and courage of the army. Such an army like a wolf and a tiger, if it enters the source of the water, I am afraid that it will not immediately cause a big incident.

If your estimation is good, in the coming period, the grassland will enter a relatively calm stage, which is just right for Yanwu to cultivate literature and sort out internal affairs. Therefore, you might as well clean up the previous martial arts style a little and really show the appearance of a magistrate.

Lu Yao was thinking like this, there was a commotion in the camp somewhere in front of him, and more than ten people were arguing with each other about something, and they hurriedly walked in the direction of Lu Yao.
