Hanbo

Chapter 155 On the Way Home (Seeking Subscription Monthly Pass)

Huo Shan returned to the army, waited quietly for a while, and the soldiers brought the gold in front of him.

The big boxes were opened one by one, and Huo Shan couldn't stop smiling when he looked at these golden nuggets, gold cakes, and gold bars.

One million catties of gold, equivalent to modern times, is nearly 100 tons.

Many, simply too many!
The period of the Western Han Dynasty was a period when gold exploded. Liu Che used gold for rewards, and every large-scale reward was worth thousands of gold.

For Guang Weiqing alone, the reward Liu Che has received over the years is 10,000+ gold, and 20 gold is [-] tons.

But although there is a lot of gold in this era and it has become the mainstream currency, Huo Shan has never seen so much gold at one time.

Huo Shan looked around the crowd with a smile on his face, and found that they were all in a daze, looking at the gold obsessively.

After all, who doesn't love such a golden thing!
Although Huo Shan doesn't care about money, it's because it's enough to spend and he doesn't care about making money, but he still loves gold.

Huo Shan reckoned that this million jin of gold probably emptied Shan Yuting!

Relying on the Xiongnu Shan Yuting's background, it would not be a problem to take out another property worth 300 million gold, but the gold, I'm afraid it's all here?
In fact, Huo Shan's estimate was a bit wrong, Shan Yuting was much richer than the Han imperial family.

The gold reserves of the Han royal family are not many all the year round, and there is more gold in the Han Dynasty, but it does not mean that the Han royal family has more gold.

The emperor of the Han Dynasty wants to reward and rule the world, and the more he earns, the more he spends.

But Shan Yuting is different. They can only get in and out, they have accumulated from generation to generation, and they have been the boss of the empire for more than 100 years. How can they be short of money?
.........

"It's enough to pass the eye addiction, don't even look at it, this million gold is for His Majesty, seal it up!"

Huo Shan cursed with a smile, and ordered the soldiers to seal up the things, and no one could open them without his order.

Everyone swallowed their saliva, oh, how greedy!

Everyone's eyes were hot. Although they came here for meritorious service, they also love gold. Seeing this scene, everyone became cautious.

Zhao Ponu walked over with a shy face, looking at Huo Shan expectantly:

"My lord, this 100 million is dedicated to His Majesty, what about the next 50?"

Huo Shan smiled and glared at him:
"A little gold will make you so greedy, you are worthless!"

Everyone smiled embarrassedly, but still stared at Huo Shan.

"All right, all right, the 100 million will be given to His Majesty, and I don't know if there will be the next 50. If there is, I will share it all.

Didn’t we confiscate 71 gold in property, 60 gold was given to the soldiers below the team rate, each person was just over 11 gold, and the remaining [-] gold was given to Wuhuan!
If there is 50 gold later, I will take [-], and Lao Zhong, Lao Zhao, San Wenshu, and Wu Junhou will each have [-] gold.

The remaining 20 gold will be distributed to officers and military judges above the team rate, and each person can get more than 800 gold, okay? "

Everyone smiled and started to shout:
"Long live the lord/captain!"

Huo Shan shook his head with a smile, this group of people is not short of money, it's nothing more than seeing so many golden eyes, even if they don't know, it's okay.

But this is a trophy, just happy, everyone is also partake of their own happiness!
"Let's talk about it first, if the gold is divided, the cattle and sheep will be gone!"

Everyone waved their hands indifferently, yelling no, no, no.

The treatment of the Habayashi Army can be described as extremely good!

Where do you share the spoils of war with them? There is only a fixed salary!
After making military exploits, he will be granted a title and rewarded by the emperor.

Reputable emperors also rewarded some gold coins, while ordinary soldiers rewarded them with copper coins.

The spoils of war belong to the country, or the emperor!

Even if the generals who lead the troops get some, it is for themselves or the trusted generals, and other officers and low-level soldiers will not see it.

But Huo Shan is different, Huo Shan is leading private soldiers, if you count strictly, all the spoils belong to him, so it doesn't matter if Huo Shan shares some.

With all this gold, they are already satisfied, and they don't care about cattle and sheep.

The military marquis and military Sima sounded great, but if they weren't under Huo Shan's command, they would have no sense of existence at all. Only when there were too many military marquises in the Han Dynasty, the captain and school lieutenant could enter the eyes of the highest level!

Huo Shan's splitting money is actually a taboo thing, if everyone doesn't split it, you should split it!
But it doesn't matter, it's still the same sentence, private soldiers!
It's none of your business if I give money to my own private soldiers?

So they will only envy, not complain!
But Huo Shan wouldn't go too far!

The 40 cattle, sheep and horses sent back earlier, and the property of more than 70 gold belonged to Huo Shan himself. He was able to do whatever he wanted without any restraint.

But the subsequent 20 horses, cattle, and 40 sheep were what Huo Shan wanted in the name of himself and the big man.

So Huo Shan can divide, but he can't be unscrupulous.

If the Xiongnu sent these things, except for the 50 gold distributed by Huo Shan, they would all belong to Liu Che.

As for the things belonging to Captain Zuo's department, they belonged to his own department, and the records of war performance, property, cattle and sheep cannot be divided.

Huo Tan can also share part of the compensation.

So he planned to allocate 20 sheep to Beidi, bring back a million gold to enrich Liu Che's small coffers, and leave the remaining 60 cattle, sheep and horses in Beidi first.

Then discuss it with Liu Che, if it is used in the battle of the Western Regions, Liu Che will definitely agree.

He can't eat the gold while it is in storage. Although sheep can breed sheep, cattle, sheep and horses need to eat, so if they can be used, they must be used quickly.

And it can also save a large amount of supplies for the big man, which can be used in other places.

So if you count the Western Regions, the big man basically didn't spend much in these two battles.

If the Western Regions make a lot of money again, the kings and ministers of the Han Dynasty will experience a feeling of getting more money with more money!
They must be very shocked, because this kind of war has never been fought before, and it doesn't cost money to fight, and it still makes money. What is the reason for this?
.........

"Okay, okay, the army is out of camp and ready to go home."

"promise."

After a while, the army started to set off, and joyful emotions were everywhere in the army.

The soldiers of the Habayashi Army have been fighting for several months, and they are also tired. Going home is the best thing for them!

They were all discussing how many rewards His Majesty would have when they returned home, and how to spend those more than 200 gold items?
First buy him a few hundred acres of land, then take a wife and give birth to him two big fat boys.

The lord is still so young, when he gets old, let his son continue to follow the lord, protect the lord, and fight for the lord!
They really didn't expect that they would also have money, they originally worshiped Huo Shan with a touch of fanaticism.

Even those related households are full of admiration for Huo Shan!
Now after several months of wars, consecutive victories, and money, they don't know what to say to Huo Shan.

The soldiers only knew that they would kill anyone who dared to provoke Huo Shan, even Liu Che was no exception!

The followers of the Xiongnu were also very excited, they knew they were going to the Dahan.

They have long yearned for that beautiful man who has food and drink, is not oppressed for no reason, and can live a stable life!

Huo Shan turned his head and glanced at the direction of Langjuxu Mountain in the distance, then at Guyan Mountain not far away, and said in his heart:
'Wait for me, I will brush you up next time! '

.........

Shan Yuting was basically on a straight line from Dahan Shuofang and Yunzhong, the deviation was not very big, the distance was almost four thousand miles.

The army set off on May [-]th, and Huo Shan planned to return to Yunzhong before June [-]th.

In fact, if the army really runs, it will arrive on the fifth and sixth day of the new year.

Although there are 15 more Han Chinese, there are enough horses!
But there is also a Zuo Dawei Department with a population of more than 4 and more than 20 cattle, sheep and horses. The march has to be slowed down, and the ten days they stay are counted according to their expectations.

Huo Shan hung at the end of the army, and looked at the nearly ten thousand Xiongnu army behind him. They were soldiers and horses from various ministries along the way from Shan Yuting to the Han Dynasty, and the envoys were in Huo Shan's army.

Of course, King Youxian wanted to take the throne, so the leaders of the various ministries were not in this army.

According to the Xiongnu, they wanted to go back to the tribe to make up for Huo Shan's compensation.

But Huo Shan reckoned that these soldiers and horses were following them for the purpose of surveillance, perhaps to find out whether the big man had sent an army so that they could deal with the next situation.

For example, will the subsequent compensation be given?

So Huo Shan gave Wei Qing a letter, asking him to instruct the army in the north to increase their momentum to deal with the Huns' investigations everywhere.

.........

Five days later, they arrived at Zuo Daduwei's department and held a grand surrender ceremony. Ululi next to him shed tears of envy.

"Why is his so grand and mine so simple?"

Huo Shan comforted him:
"Don't worry, there is one more time when we return to Chang'an. It will be as grand as it needs to be. Maybe when it rises, we can cut off two heads to celebrate."

Looking at Ululi's pale face with fright, Huo Shan continued to comfort him:

"Don't be afraid, if you want to cut it, you have to cut it first. Shanyu and Zuoguduhou, you, Zuoguli King, have to be in the back."

Then he left with a word in his mouth:
"I don't know if two are enough to chop!"

Of course Huo Shan was trying to scare him, after all, scaring Ululi was one of the few pleasures on the boring march.

It is impossible for Er Shanyu and Zuo Guduhou to be cut off, and they will probably have to stay in Chang'an for the rest of their lives.

Wouldn't it be a lot less fun to cut them off?
Moreover, Erdan is a Shanyu, so he might be of great use in the future.

As for Ululi, the king of Zuogu Li, his treatment is better than the previous two, but he can only stay in Chang'an.

But at least there is family to accompany, wife and children are hot on the kang, and there is no problem with being prosperous and rich all his life.

As for the Zuoguli King tribe, this tribe has been exterminated, and now there is only the Xiongnu Yicong tribe.

All the people who surrendered in front were combined with the Zuoguli King's tribe to form the Xiongnu Yisong tribe.

They should stay in the north first when they go back. As for their whereabouts, they have to discuss it when they go back.

But if there are no accidents, there is a high probability that Dunhuang and the Western Regions will be visited!
Huo Shan wanted to take them to the Western Regions to expand their territories.
