Chapter 809: Population

Compared with many ancestors who traveled to ancient times to develop the great cause of rebellion, Zhou Shaoyu's speed is indeed a little slow, and he does not have the legendary kingly spirit.

In short, Zhou Shaoyu is now a talented person under his command, except for the sister, there are no two people, most of them are grassroots officials who were trained later, and they can be used, but they are embarrassed.

Talent is rare, this is not a joke. Zhou Shaoyu is not a court, nor is he a prince or a prince, and when the overall situation in the world does not reach a certain point, no one will vote at all.

That's why there's a shortage of talent.

Yes, Fang Hong was able to nod, and Zhou Shaoyu was naturally overjoyed, even if it was just a transaction, and even if it was threatening.

Fang Hong's original idea was very simple, find a suitable person, entrust him with taking care of the offspring, and then fight to the death with the Turks.

As for the rest? I didn't think about it at all.

However, Zhou Shaoyu made a condition that he could not refuse.

First, whitewashing.

Fang Hong's current reputation is already stinky in Daliang, after all, what he did was a traitor, so they didn't care if they had a hard time, they would only know that Fang Hong was a mutiny.

For this reason, Fang Hong was unwilling, but what could he do if he was unwilling?

The bloodline of the Fang family has been preserved, but there is no way to stand up and be a man again, unless the identity is changed, such as the surname Fang, but the ancestors have to change, otherwise as long as it is Fang Hong's bloodline, even if the dynasty changes, it will still bear the infamy.

However, all this is without any choice.

But what if Fang Hong can be whitewashed?

At the beginning, for the continuation of the Fang family's bloodline, Fang Hong chose to surrender to the Turks, so in order to regain the glory of the Fang family, would he also choose to agree?

That's what the deal is about.

And secondly, there is the threat.

Even if he didn't say anything, in fact, Fang Hong had no choice, the hidden descendants of the Fang family had been handed over to Zhou Shaoyu, and life and death were still being taken care of. If he didn't agree, Fang Hong would not be so easy if he wanted to make a big show to keep the fire for the Fang family.

Of course, Zhou Shaoyu actually didn't mean that, he is not a hero, and he has his own bottom line in doing things, so he will not say that he will use other people's families as a threat. just sincerely wanted to win over Fang Hong.

But Fang Hong, an old fox who has lived for most of his life, will not look at it like this, he has been in the court for a long time, and every inadvertent word will be subconsciously pondered and analyzed, and over time, he has already developed a habit, so in an instant, Fang Hong thought a lot.

The first reaction was dissatisfaction, and no one wanted to be blackmailed. In particular, because Fang Hong was coerced, his reputation was gone, and in order to try his best to preserve the bloodline of the Fang family, he even had to direct a big assassination scene and killed many of his own children and grandchildren. Therefore, Fang Hong was extremely repulsed by this.

But looking at Zhou Shaoyu's sincere eyes, Fang Hong felt that he was thinking too much, every old fox had his own self-confidence, except for a very few people, Fang Hong didn't think that anyone could hide his true thoughts in front of his eyes. And although there is not much contact, it is obvious that Zhou Shaoyu has a sense of righteousness, and it is precisely this breath that Fang Hong is more determined to entrust the descendants of the Fang family to him.

Such a person would suddenly and darkly threaten him with hostages?

It's unreasonable.

If this is just an opinion on his own opinion, it is not enough to prove whether Zhou Shaoyu is good or bad. It doesn't matter, there are also sides.

Assuming that Zhou Shaoyu has ambitions to change the day, then he will not miss any opportunity to strengthen his own strength.

Now Zhou Shaoyu's strength in the north is still very weak, and the army has not yet been formed, that is, it is only with such an ally as Ainur that he can gain a foothold.

In other words, there was no need for Zhou Shaoyu to offend Fang Hong, no matter how the latter was calculated, he was now quite trusted by Ashina Falcon.

Taking a step back, Fang Hong now controls 30,000 troops, which is definitely not comparable to the Turkic cavalry, and it is not much of a powerful elite, but it is also a fully equipped army.

Just delay for a while, and when Zhou Shaoyu's army is formed, then it will be the alliance of Zhou Shaoyu and Fang Hongjia Ainur, and the allies who are likely to be secretly united.

At that time, it would not be too difficult for Zhou Shaoyu to obtain Fang Hong's army, because it was impossible for Fang Hong to do anything rebellious. Since this is the case, why do you want to cause a bad feeling, aren't you afraid that Fang Hong will turn his face? After all, at that time, Fang Hong would no longer be coerced by Ashina Falcon, in other words, the Fang family was free, even if Zhou Shaoyu still controlled the hostages in his hands, it would not end up in the knot of extermination.

Therefore, this coercion is indeed a coercion, but the effect is not as great as imagined.

After thinking about it, Fang Hong was sure that Zhou Shaoyu really didn't have any idea of the messy dark side. And there are many benefits of agreeing to join Zhou Shaoyu.

Even if his identity is whitewashed, he will not be able to go back to the past, because the ministers of the court have already joined forces to suppress his disciples and grandchildren. And at that time, if Fang Hong appeared as a hero, ha, what would those ministers think? How awkward will the location be?

It's just that there is no hatred, and it has become a great hatred of life and death, with you and me.

But you can't stop washing it because of this.

So Fang Hong didn't have much choice.

And take a step back and think whimsically, what if Zhou Shaoyu succeeds?

Right.

Therefore, Fang Hong, who pondered for a moment, agreed, after all, this kind of thing is actually not bad, and the range of options is also very low.

It's a pity that this answer is too vague, Zhou Shaoyu just regarded Fang Hong's reply as a gesture of goodwill, and didn't mean anything else, because he just said that he would help Fang Hong clear his name in the future, and he didn't say anything similar to 'you will mess with me in the future'.

There is no way, it has always been difficult to recruit talents, not to mention that it is still of Fang Hong's grade, Zhou Shaoyu is not in a hurry at all. And people don't think about it so much.

Fortunately, although both of them misunderstood the meaning, it had little impact and would not delay the future.

Compared with the lonely one not long ago, this time Zhou Shaoyu returned to Jincheng, the team was a little bigger, first of all, there was a little girl bride, forget it, don't mention this girl. And then there are the five hundred cavalry guards given by Ashina Falcon, well, this one will have to be slaughtered sooner or later.

It's really a harvest, that is, the boxes of goods. And, a considerable number of slaves.

After all, not everyone is willing to give the treasure directly, and Zhou Shaoyu accepts people, and the price is not low, so why not pull it out. They don't care about slaves or anything.

Who would have thought that it would have seemed to be a dangerous beginning, but in the end there were so many gains, this is not over, Xiao Jiao's wife is indeed in short supply of various materials, but it has also sent some benefits, in addition, Huofeng's side has also supported some weapons. There are many of these things in Luoyang City, and the fire phoenix is not rare at all, anyway, it is not a large-scale send, and more must be traded slowly.

The imperial court hasn't reacted yet, and it's because it's too far away, so it shouldn't be a dime, otherwise it's too much to say.

No matter how much the prestige of the Liang court falls, it still depends on the opinions of the people. If you don't send troops to regain the lost land and drive out the aliens, it doesn't matter, and now that people have taken up this burden, they still don't care about anything? I can't say enough.

Indeed, Gao Yuyao really thinks so, she originally wanted Zhou Shaoyu to fight with the Turks, but now she is a little incomprehensible.

It is said that the guy also married the youngest daughter of the Khan?

It is said that the youngest daughter is only six years old?

Beasts!

Gao Yuyao's heart suddenly felt a burst of disgust.

As a young lady from the Prime Minister's Mansion, I haven't seen any literati, some like three-inch golden lotus, some like Yangzhou thin horses, some like old ones, and naturally some like young people.

In short, those people were serious and elegant gentlemen, and their virtues behind their backs were disgusting.

Obviously, Zhou Shaoyu was also classified by Gao Yuyao as a disgusting mess.

Originally, there were more wives and concubines in the past, but it cannot be denied that Zhou Shaoyu does have a vision, whether it is a wife or a concubine, he is a highly talented existence. But this six-year-old baby, tsk.

I didn't see the picture of Zhou Shaoyu and Ashina Falcon stumbling to death, Gao Yuyao didn't open the forest, she hated the situation that the chess pieces were out of control, especially, if you ask for help, you can ask for help, everyone who is still making trouble knows it, and now they are all watching the reaction of the imperial court, heh......

Allocate money?

Dream!

Our money is not blowing in the wind, and it is really easy to find a way to cut off the heads of those ministers?

"The Queen Mother, there is a way for slaves and maids." Seeing Gao Yuyao's brows furrowed, the palace maid on the side said cautiously.

This is also the personal maid who has served her for many years, and if you change someone, you don't dare to talk like this, why, do you want to participate in politics?

"Tell me about it." is her own person, Gao Yuyao is also casual, and she can't see that if someone else dares to mention it rashly, no matter whether she really has an idea or not, regardless of whether the idea is good or bad, she will be scolded by dozens of boards first, and then she Gao Yuyao will not need to be promoted to the extent that she needs to raise internal officials to control the court.

"Since Zhou Bingzhou mentioned the population in the fold, it is better to ......" The palace maid is also a beginning, but when it comes to this, it is enough for Gao Yuyao to understand.

The continuous natural and man-made disasters mean that there are large-scale displaced people, and some people run to the boundaries of the territory that the imperial court currently actually controls, hoping to obtain relief from the imperial court to make a living.

In terms of scale, it is not small at all, and if one is not handled properly, it is easy to trigger a popular uprising, and everyone will be cautious on this issue.

There is still a war in his hometown, and it is definitely not possible to force people to go back, Gao Yuyao thought about it, and finally recruited most of the strong men to fill the army, and a ration plus low salary and silver was enough for people and their families to barely survive. As for the rest, that is, it is hung by the most basic gruel, and as for when it will be hanged, it is a little uncertain.

The meaning of the palace maid is obvious, don't you want the population, then get these people over, anyway, most of them are old, weak, women and children, and it is also a burden to the court. As for being ugly, it's a big deal to come with a ration, and it may not be much to spread it evenly on everyone's head, but it is still quite a lot to get together, which is enough to offset the doubts of the outside world.

Gao Yuyao felt that this method was good, and because there were not many strong men, she was not afraid of Zhou Shaoyu recruiting into the army.

"Well, just do what you want, choose some reliable people, don't go wrong with this matter, lest Shaoyu make any trouble that week." Gao Yuyao waved her hand, which was considered to solve a headache.

Several fast horses galloped out of the capital, sending imperial orders to various places, and all the displaced people gathered at the border of Xuzhou under the supervision of the garrisons from all over the country, and then a group of 30,000 men and horses set off for Jincheng.

Of course, it is impossible to send the 'goods' directly to the home, and the territory of the chaotic army is just that, as long as Huofeng is not stupid, he will not take the initiative to provoke the imperial army at this time, after all, having a Xiao Yuwen is enough of a headache.

But even then, it is impossible to send it to the borders of the Turks, well, to put it bluntly, there is no such guts.

Therefore, someone had already sent a message in advance, and Zhou Shaoyu needed to take the initiative to send someone to greet him.

Good guy, Zhou Shaoyu has a big head, he never thought that Gao Yuyao could be so shameless.

First of all, that's more than 200,000 people! But among them, young and strong, I'm afraid that there are more than 10,000? It's so damning, it's simply it.

Zhou Shaoyu can't help but accept it, otherwise his reputation will be gone.

But it is also a problem to accept, there are too many people, and Zhou Shaoyu's subordinates are not enough, although it has been more than a month since he returned to Jincheng from Taiyuan, but in such a little time, how many soldiers can be trained.

Among them, 500 people were 'brought' from Huofeng.

As for borrowing troops from Ainur, tsk, forget it.

Think about it, a large group of old and weak women and children were driven all the way to the borders of the Turks, not panic? Not afraid? Not desperate? Then a large wave of Turkic cavalry came directly, and with a snort, I don't know how many people were angry.

For more than a month, Zhou Shaoyu took Zhou Zaixing, as well as Yang Miaozhen and Lu Lingqi, tired and tired, and barely trained a team of 8,000 people. This is already an exaggeration, after all, the current Jincheng, plus these 8,000, is a total of 60,000.

That's it, that is, the rules are barely established, marching or anything is not a problem, and pulling to fight is nonsense.

It doesn't matter, the morale of the big guy is very high, as for the reason......

In other words, in Jincheng, the yang is prosperous and the yin is declining, and some are big singles, and now they are actually sending a large number of women!

Hiss......

The state pastor said that whoever has made meritorious service can reward his daughter-in-law!

Otherwise, what else can be done, Zhou Shaoyu is also desperate.

At the time of the handover, the sympathetic little eyes of the general of the imperial court were really depressing.

It's easy to bring it back to Jincheng, and it has to be settled, and then it has to be registered, which is a time-consuming and troublesome thing
