Daqin: Reign in the world

As soon as these words came out, almost everyone in the audience darkened their faces.

This is a little arrogant!

It seems that buying and selling with others is regarded as a kind of charity?

I’m afraid that Yongya can’t remember who he is, right?

Shuangjing County, Zhangye County.

With the permission of the emperor, Li Xin happily ordered an army and went to the bank of the salt pond to build the salt pond city.

Yanchi City was mainly used to guard against the Qiang people. There will be a large army stationed there.

Moreover, it is necessary to build a road from Yanchi City to Zhangye County.

This road is not long, but there are some difficulties to cross the Qilian Mountains.

Fortunately, the last thing that is lacking now is manpower.

The Third Army and the Twenty-fifth Legion, these two major legions will not be mentioned. Just a hundred thousand Wusun people are already idle.

The Wusun people are in Shuangjing and have always lived a nomadic life.

In fact, grazing cattle, you don’t need so many people. More often than not, they are wandering around, looking for good places with abundant water and grass.

Since the shuangjing began in the grassland, sowing alfalfa. The situation in the grasslands has also improved a lot.

The current Wusun people are almost resident herders, and they don’t need to travel around.

These people, if they don’t find something to do, something will happen.

Just take this opportunity to let them build cities and build roads.

The main general is still Li Guang.

There is no way.

It is not because Li Guang is Li Xin’s son, so he is given special care.

Wang Li, on family lineage, on the rank of the legion, on battle merits, all above Li Guang.

However, just because the Wusun people especially worship Li Guang, the things that order the Wusun people to do are better for Li Guang to do.

There is no reason to talk about it.

Li Guang, with unparalleled courage, is especially good at archery. The iron tire bow in his hand cannot be pulled open by ordinary people. A hundred paces away, open the bow, the arrow is right in the bullseye.

The Wusun people admire such people!

Li Guang led the 25th Army under his command, and Bu Ling Marquis led the Wusun Army of 80,000 men. Two armies marched into the salt pond.

Along the way, build the road.

Simple dirt road, expand a square foot to wide, a little paved and flattened. It’s fast.

Building a city in the salt pond is not easy.

It was deserted, with no trees, no stones, and only salt.

Li Guangxian had the army stationed.

The Qiang people are surrounded by people and need to keep an eye on the safety of the army at all times.

The stationing of hundreds of thousands of troops here is also a great deterrent to the Qiang people. The neighboring Qiang people were a little panicked.

Qiang tribes, a tribe may be scattered into many settlements.

People are particularly scattered.

And the average tribe, even if all the young and strong are gathered, it is between a thousand and five thousand people.

Even if they can unite all the one hundred and fifty Qiang tribes and gather all the soldiers, they are still inferior to the Great Qin Legion in terms of numbers.

What’s more, there are still various contradictions between the tribes of the Qiang people themselves. You can’t get together at all.

In this case, it became easy for Bu Ling Marquis to lead troops to various Qiang tribes to persuade by force.

Persuasion by force was an idea of Li Xin.

At first, Li Guang didn’t want to be so troublesome. I want to destroy tribe-by-tribe, and capture the living back as slaves. Simple and crude.

But Li Xin disagreed.

Shuangjing County is different from other counties, and the Wusun people are now mainly living on this land. The Wusun people, similar to the Qiang, are also nomads.

One of Li Xin’s biggest headaches is that the place is too big and the population is too small.

Based on past experience, we want to slowly increase the number of people. You can’t catch slaves, you can only take them in.

Then give them a stable life, and they will continue to create people.

So a strategy was set, that is, persuasion by force.

It is easier to operate than to catch slaves.

Bu Ling Hou led the army first, and suddenly broke into the territory of a certain tribe. Let the other person be afraid, and then send someone to talk.

The tribe was asked to send some labor to transport wood and stone from the Qilian Mountains to the salt pond.

There are many Qiang people, and it is actually very easy to do a little transportation. And Daqin is not stingy, and the remuneration is very generous.

This kind of richness is not money, but grain, cloth, tea, utensils, such daily necessities.

These things are more rare for the Qiang people than money.

The Qiang people have always been in a state of isolation, relying on self-sufficiency for everything. These things produced by Daqin are full of temptation for the Qiang people.

Bu Ling Hou is also from a nomadic background, and he can especially understand the psychology of the Qiang people.

So the conversation went smoothly.

Li Guang established several military posts on the section of the road from Yanchi to Qilian Mountain. Each post is guarded by 10,000 people, and this road is strictly protected.

Salt blocks, truckloads of goods shipped out. Timber and stone were also brought back in truckloads.

Yanchi City, just like that, was built little by little.

Outside Yanchi City, Li Guang built a large market, Kunlun Ji.

Shuangjing County kept Li Xin and sent many merchants over.

A free bazaar, so that the Qiang people can easily exchange for all kinds of things produced in Daqin. It is also possible to sell some of the specialties of the Qiang people to Daqin merchants here.

In addition to cows and sheep, the Qiang people also produce ghee and cheese. These things are also things that the Qin people like more.

But the most popular category is somewhat unexpected.

It is an ornament made by the Qiang people who are bored and use the bones of various animals to polish and strung them.

The Qiang people like to hang a string of wolf teeth around their neck and wear an antelope horn on their head.

They always thought that the Qin people did not wear these things because they felt barbaric and could not look at them.

With the Kunlun Set, they discovered that the Daqin merchants were most interested in this!

In the vast Cocoxili, there are countless dry bones. If they could all be picked up and ground into jewelry and sold to the Qin people, they would wake up laughing in their dreams.

The Kunlun set opened a door for the Qiang people, allowing more Qiang people to become close to Daqin emotionally.

Under the peace, there may not be no undercurrents.

There are also some Qiang people who are angry about the current situation.

The Mengdu Tou people suffered losses in a transaction with the merchants of Daqin. I met a profiteer and bought a batch of cloth soaked in water and mold.

I found out after returning to the tribe.

His tribe was far away, three hundred miles to the east, under the Muzhan Musong Mountain.

Originally, he happily returned with a few carts of cloth, ready to distribute them to the women of each family and make clothes.

But not long after the division, these women came to the door one by one.

“Headman, you… Nope! You see, it cracks as soon as it is pulled. ”

“That’s right, if this cloth is made into clothes, I don’t know when it will be torn.” Would you like your wife to be seen? ”

“All the ghee I worked so hard to beat is given to you. As a result, exchange for these broken things! ”

“I feel like I’ve been robbed!”

When someone said no, Meng Du felt a rush of blood rushing up. So angry that his eyes flashed Venus.
