Han Dao world

Chapter 1241
Han Rong looked at the scenery on the bridge for a while, feeling at ease.

During the period, several large ships passed under the bridge. Except for one ship that needed to lower its mast temporarily, the others were unimpeded and did not encounter any trouble.

Those who argue are right, the arch bridge is very convenient for ships, but it is difficult for cars to cross the bridge.At this point in the car, you can only get out of the car, pull the car down with manpower, and put it down carefully.

The people who built the bridge at the beginning should have thought about it, and finally chose it to be good for boats and not good for cars.

Han Rong stood on the bridge for a while, but didn't see a car, so he probably chose to take a detour.

The wind was getting stronger, and Han Rong was a little cold, so he turned around and prepared to get off the bridge.

At this time, a few horses came running in the distance.Even though they were far away, Han Rong could tell that those horses were not ordinary horses, but real Wuhuan horses.Although the Wuhuan horse was not as tall and strong as the Xiliang horse, its speed was not slow, and it reached the bridge in a short while.

Before the horses came to a complete stop, the one in the lead turned over and dismounted, threw the bridle to the followers, and carried a bundle by himself, striding up the bridge, three steps at a time.

Han Rong took a closer look and couldn't help laughing.

The middle-aged man with a strong figure and dark complexion in front of him was none other than Xinpi who had asked him to meet.

"George, where are you going in such a hurry?"

Xin Pi came to Han Rong, panting slightly, and bowed his hands in salute. "Han Gong, I'm ashamed, my son is neglectful of discipline and doesn't know etiquette. As soon as I heard that Han Gong is here, I rushed over and asked Han Gong to forgive my sin. A bear fur to protect Han Gong from the cold."

As he spoke, he shook off the burden in his hand, and it turned out to be a leather cloak.

What surprised Han Rong was that the fur cloak was completely white, without even a single hair.

"George, this is..."

"The white bear fur in the north of the North Sea, a gift from the barbarians outside the Great Wall, is extremely warm. Turn around, Han Gong, and I will put it on for you."

Han Rong quickly declined. "It's so precious, I dare not accept it."

Xin Pi laughed, and without explanation, put the leather cloak on Han Rong's shoulders.The soft hair wiped Han Rong's face, like a girl's hand, and seemed to have a hint of warmth.

"Han Gong, although this item is rare, it is not considered precious. There are quite a few items in the Youyan Duhu Mansion."

Han Rong was skeptical, but he didn't shirk it.He still knew Simpi, and he was not a person who tried his best to flatter others.

With the leather cloak on his upper body, Han Rong, who originally felt a little cold, suddenly felt warm all over, without feeling the chill at all.

"Why are there so many in northern Xinjiang?"

Simpi smiled and said: "Those barbarians have a lot of leather, but the processing skills are not good, so the best leather will be sent to Youzhou to be made by my big man's craftsman. They don't have other good things. Two pieces of leather Come, take one fur cloak, and the rest is wages."

Han Rong laughed. "So that's the case. Then how much can you sell this leather cloak to the Central Plains?"

"About one gold. If it is an ordinary black bear or brown bear, it will be cheaper, about six or seven thousand yuan."

Han Rong clicked his tongue, not because he thought it was expensive, but because he thought it was cheap.

He originally thought that this leather cloak would cost at least ten gold.Although the Yangwu Han family is not considered a rich family, they have seen good things.Congzi Han Fu was the governor of Jizhou before, and he brought back several leather cloaks, but the quality was far inferior to this one, costing tens of thousands of dollars.

He then asked about the situation in Youzhou.

Simpi explained one by one.

After pacifying Liaodong, especially after defeating Goguryeo, Xun You used troops against Fuyu again, and it took little effort to make Fuyu bow his head and become a minister.The reason why it went so smoothly was that apart from the fact that the Han army had a strong armor and spears that no one could defeat, it also had a lot to do with the mutual market.The barbarians could obtain necessary living materials through the mutual market, and they could also ask to be attached. If their children entered the Han people’s schools, they would still have the opportunity to become officials in the Han lands in the future. Few people still wanted to meet the Han people.

Even if there are, they are not the opponents of the Han army.

Using both suppression and appeasement, within a few years, the north of the desert was stable.

Although there are still barbarians going south, the number is limited and they will not gather in Mobei, so naturally they cannot pose a threat to the big man.

After hearing this, Han Rong sighed faintly. "Anyone who opposes the movement of Tao, sincerity will not deceive me."

Xin Pi knew what Han Rong was talking about, and nodded in agreement.

He has been in northern Xinjiang for several years, and his feelings are far deeper than Han Rong's.

Before that, the big Han's attitude towards the northern Hulu was contradictory.

On the one hand, the Han people looked down on those Hulu and felt that they were uncivilized and unworthy of being with the Han people, so they strongly opposed the Hulu's entry into the fortress.On the other hand, in the face of increasing pressure on the border, the officials of the imperial court advocated appeasement, hoping to bribe the Hulu by means of gifts of coins and marriage, and let them guard the border for the big man.

As a result, the big Han spent a lot of money to fatten up the Hulu, but the pressure on the border was increasing, and more and more Hulu lived in the frontier, and most of the frontiers of the three prefectures of You and Liang were lost.

Whether it is war or peace, the Han people have been arguing for a long time, and the policy has been repeated many times, but in the end they did not find a solution.

However, this problem that has been entangled for more than 100 years has suddenly been solved.

The method is very simple, that is, what Han Rong said is a move against the Tao, and the previous policy is reversed.

On the one hand to appease and enlighten, on the other hand to suppress.

It looks the same as the previous policy, there is only one difference: technology and tactics, and Du Tian.

Advanced technology can create more advanced weapons, and the training of generals at all levels makes the soldiers more effective in combat. Dutian also allows soldiers to have constant production, and guarding the border has meaning, and no matter how hard it is, they can endure it.

At the same time, the enthusiasm of the soldiers also makes the training more effective.

With better weapons, higher tactical literacy and fighting will, three to five thousand soldiers are enough to defend the border, and the entire Youyan Dufu Mansion is only [-] paces, and the military expenditure has not increased, but even less.

This changed his attitude towards Du Tian greatly.

"Han Gong, I heard that Yingchuan's land cultivation is not thorough enough so far?"

Han Rong turned to look at Simpi and sighed. "The field is saved, but it's difficult for people's hearts."

"Who is there?"

"Those pedantic people, don't mention it." Han Rong shook his head, unwilling to say more. "However, it has only been a few days. Although Bohai's benevolent government is still insisting, it has actually failed. Now there are not many people who have moved out, but there are many people who want to move back. But the land has been divided, so there is no idle land. They were resettled, and the counties refused to accept them for naturalization, making them unable to return home.”

Han Rong let out a long sigh. "I knew today, why bother at the beginning."

Simpi said nothing.

Although he is in northern Xinjiang, he has been in touch with Zhong Yao, Xun Chen and others. Naturally, he knows that Bohai's benevolent government cannot be sustained, but there is no end to it.

This is also the reason why he rushed to see Han Rong as soon as he heard that Han Rong had come to Wancheng.

At present, there are still enough qualifications and no direct relationship with the court. There are only a few people who can speak in front of the emperor, and Han Rong is one of them.
