Molested Zulong at the beginning

Under normal circumstances, these people would soon not be able to survive this winter due to the shortage of livestock and the inability to cope with the plunder of other tribes.

But now there are some unexpected changes.

Since the Huns were defeated by the Xia army and the King's court fell, the Xia army did not rob the king's court of all the livestock like other tribes.

Under Bai Su's order, a part of the livestock was specially allocated to the local herdsmen.

He even told the local herdsmen that if they could bring their acquaintances, they could come to receive cattle, sheep, livestock, or cloth, salt and other materials based on their heads.

For a while, small tents were set up around the former royal court, and quite a few people had already gathered.

Regarding Bai Su's approach, many tribal leaders found it difficult to understand, including the Xiongnu Shanyu Modun.

In a room with flickering lights.

Mao Dun stared closely at Bai Su, who was wearing a coat in front of him and was sitting at the table reading the Xianyang memorial, his slender willow eyebrows couldn't help but twitch.

She picked up the wine cup with her slender jade hand, and after her red lips sipped the wine, she couldn't help asking: "Hey, what are you thinking?"

"What, what are you thinking?"

Bai Su put down the report in his hand, and couldn't help being stunned.

Mao Dun's beautiful brows were slightly frowned: "Stop pretending. In the past, when the victory or defeat on the grassland was decided, the winner would take away the loser's livestock and the fertile pasture. After possessing the strongest strength, he would dominate the grassland This prairie."

"But you distribute the hard-won spoils to those old and weak women and children, you... what do you think?"

In her opinion, what Bai Su did was simply reckless.

Bai Su couldn't help smiling, and said, "It's very simple, just like what I said before, I want the Central Plains to have no worries about the North."

Mao Dun's slender willow eyebrows couldn't help but raised, she put down the wine cup, and couldn't help asking: "Then you should increase your plundering, the livestock of these tribes, so that they can't grow up?"

Bai Su said: "The sword can only suppress for a while, but it can't solve the fundamental problem."

"Basic problem?"

Mao Dun couldn't help being stunned, she was a little confused for a while, what kind of medicine was sold in Bai Su's gourd.

Bai Su closed the memorial in his hand, and asked with a smile: "Let me ask you, what is the essential reason for the struggle between the Central Plains and the Grassland?"

Mao Dun pondered for a moment, and asked: "It's a battle between overlords. In order to prevent a giant from rising in the frontier, it needs to be eradicated as soon as possible, just like your Northern Expedition in the Central Plains."

Bai Su shook his head slightly: "The unification of the Central Plains and the Grassland is just a short period of time, but the struggle between the two sides has been going on for more than 1000 years. As early as the Yin and Shang Dynasties, there were Guifang tribes who invaded the border of the Central Plains. The theory of the overlord can explain it."

Mao Dun was a little puzzled and said, "Then in your opinion, why is this?"

Bai Su said with a smile: "It's very simple. The two sides' struggle seems to have various reasons, but the underlying reason has always been only one, and that is...survival."

Mao Dun was taken aback for a moment: "Survive?"

Bai Su explained: "Just like you Xiongnu, who have been grazing animals for many years, lived by water and grass, lacked in supplies, and depended on the sky for food. Once there is a severe drought, or when winter is approaching, a large number of livestock will die."

"In the face of food shortages, if the grassland wants to survive, there have been only two choices since ancient times. Either the powerful tribes will rob the weak tribes, the weak will eat the strong, and they will continue to involve."

"If you don't unite under the integration of a strong lord and go south to plunder, you can only survive if you get supplies from the Central Plains."

"Under this premise, no matter who unifies the grassland, the first goal is the Central Plains."

Hearing the words suddenly, after thinking about it carefully, he found that it was really the same as what Bai Su said.

Since ancient times, the Central Plains has been rich in martial arts, and the weapons forged are very sturdy. As long as the water and grass on the grassland are fertile, they will not risk going south to snatch food from the tiger's mouth.

In many cases, it was a group of grassland tribes who suffered from famine and food shortage, and then under the leadership of a strong lord, they began to gather into a powerful force and then went south.

And Bai Su continued: "In order to deal with the northern aggression, the Central Plains can only continue to send troops to the northern expedition to sweep across the grasslands, but they also have to face two problems."

"First, the army has a lot of money. My rich Central Plains fights your barren grassland, just like a rich businessman fights a beggar. It is really a loss. If you win, you will lose money. If you lose, you will lose even more. It will also shake the national destiny. What a loss."

"Secondly, since the Central Plains has always lacked a set of effective management of the grassland, there is only one thing that can be done, disobey the king, kill him..."

"But this still can't solve the essence of the problem. There will be peace for at most 30 to [-] years. As long as there is no way to manage this grassland, sooner or later there will be a second tribe migrating here in the future, and continue to fight against the Central Plains."

"It's like defeating Gui Fang, ushering in Quan Rong, defeating Rong Di, and coming your Huns again, endlessly."

"So if you want to completely solve the problem in the north, you must come up with a long-term management of the grassland and a profitable policy. Otherwise, even if you occupy the grassland for a while, you will lose money in the future and lose it."

Mao Dun glanced at Bai Su: "So, have you found a strategy?"

Bai Su took a sip of the wine, moistened his throat, and said, "That's natural."

Mo Dun asked curiously, "Oh, what's the plan?"

Bai Su said: "Instead of using a sword to pull out and kill the youths of the tribe one by one, it is better to swallow the wolf god of the grassland and turn it into the flesh and blood of my Great Xia."

Mao Dun's green eyes looked at Bai Su with great interest, and teased: "You want to annex my Huns, do you think you can eat it?"

The corners of Bai Su's mouth curled up slightly, and a deep smile appeared in his eyes: "Of course, it can be eaten. If we only rely on the grasslands and the unilateral governance thinking of the Central Plains, we will definitely not be able to solve this problem."

"But if you gather the strengths of hundreds of schools, it will be different."

"The fundamental problem in the grassland is that there is a lack of supplies, and people live by grazing and relying on the weather to eat, so they are unable to deal with natural disasters."

"Then you only need to be attached to the Central Plains. On weekdays, you can live by grazing and doing business as a supplement. During the harvest season, you can store the excess money in the bank."

"In this way, you don't have to worry about dying from drought or flooding. You can buy cloth and grain from the Central Plains through caravans for emergencies."

"Afterwards, the Central Plains will be stationed in this pastoral village. While stationing troops, it will promote changing local customs and establish private schools, allowing local herdsmen to wear Chinese clothes, write Chinese characters, speak Chinese, and learn the technology of the Central Plains at the same time."

"For example, wine brewing, wool weaving, leather clothing, jade polishing, house construction, etc..."

"Turn the grassland that used to rely solely on grazing to become like my Central Plains, where all kinds of industries are flourishing, and each base is built. From then on, as long as the trade is attached to the Central Plains, this huge market, the grassland will be more and more prosperous."

"Moreover, in addition to riding horses and archery, and enlisting in the army to become a cavalryman, the local herdsmen can also take exams and become officials."

"First pass the assessment of the local Protectorate's Office, and get the number one scholar in the county, and then you can choose to be an official in the local area."

"You can also choose to go to Xianyang, the capital of the Central Plains, and then continue to take the imperial examination with scholars from all over the world. High school students can stay in the prosperous Xianyang as officials in the future."

"You can also rely on this fame to go to various places to practice in the Protectorate's Mansion at will, create some achievements, and use your own name to leave a strong and colorful stroke in my Great Xia's history books for future generations to look up to."

"In this way, within a hundred years, there will be no more wolf gods in the grassland... only my Great Xia's Anton Governor's Mansion, and the flying black bird flag."

After listening to Bai Su's words, Mao Dun stared blankly at Bai Su with a pair of beautiful eyes, and his vermilion lips subconsciously opened up.

A picture involuntarily appeared in her mind, the blue black bird spread its wings covering the sky, covering the entire grassland, and the former wolf god was swallowed like a worm.

It has to be said that facing Bai Su's gaze, a thin layer of cold sweat broke out on her forehead.

Even though Bai Su in front of him looked powerless, in terms of single-handed skills, even a random guard at the door couldn't compare.

But in terms of horror, it is a hundred times more terrifying than Meng Tian, ​​more than a thousand times.

the reason is simple……

Although Meng Tian is known as the number one warrior in China and has defeated her many times on the battlefield, it was only a temporary victory after all.

Winning or losing is a common matter for military strategists. In the future, if she is given another three or five years, she still has the confidence to lead the Huns to win back again.

But Bai Su is different, once lost in his hands, as long as he loses once, there is almost no possibility of turning over.

According to Bai Su's thinking, the Xiongnu may really disappear on the stage of history.

However, Mao Dun didn't feel angry at all, instead, he looked at Bai Su with a little more appreciation.

After all, the grassland has always only respected the strong, and only such people are worthy of her high regard.

Only a perfect man is worthy of her bowing down to marry him.

Moton's emerald green eyes stared closely at Bai Su, looking at his handsome cheek, he liked it no matter what he saw for a while.

After pondering for a long time, she suddenly said: "Don't you want to rely on my reputation to summon the old department to stabilize the local situation for you?"

Bai Su was stunned for a moment, and said in surprise, "Are you willing to help me?"

Mao Dun nodded lightly: "I can help you, but I have one condition."

Bai Su couldn't help showing a smile on his face: "Don't mention one condition, it doesn't matter if there are ten conditions, just open your mouth."

The Allied Forces of the Six Nations in the south are about to move, but Mobei can't find anyone who can stabilize the situation in a short time, and he has long been irritated by this.

Now that Mao Dun took the initiative to speak, he was naturally very happy.

Mao Dun supported the table with both hands, bowed down, and said with a serious face: "Come be my man."

Chapter 330 The Wolf King's Tenderness, Pounding Heartbeat

Bai Su was stunned for a long time, and then slowly came back to his senses.

He looked at Mao Dun with a strange expression, and said, "That... are you serious?"

Mao Dun's vermilion lips curled up slightly, and a smile appeared on his face: "Why is it so surprising?"

"It's really unexpected."

Bai Su scratched his cheek with his fingers, and unconsciously looked at Xiongnu Shanyu.

She was still wearing a tall Hu skirt, showing a domineering figure, with high slits, and a pair of beautiful wheat-colored legs, which looked extremely alluring under the light of the candlelight.

Different from the dignified and graceful appearance of the Central Plains women, the exotic appearance gives people a wild and hot feeling.

In terms of appearance and figure, she is indeed a peerless stunner.

But for her thoughts, Bai Su was a little confused for a while.

It was obvious that she was the chief culprit who caused her defeat, so it was fine if she didn't hate herself, but she also took the initiative to show her favor, which really didn't make sense.

Mo Dun noticed Bai Su's gaze, she didn't dodge at all, instead she met Bai Su's gaze, and crossed her legs, putting one beautiful leg on the other, the plump buttocks under the skirt were tightly held The cloth outlines a rounded arc.

Seeing Bai Su coughing lightly, rubbing his nose and looking away, she couldn't help but smiled and said: "We children of the grasslands don't have as much benevolence and morality as you people in the Central Plains. The strong are respected on the grasslands. Since you won Me, that is naturally qualified to keep pace with me."

Bai Su couldn't help but asked: "But... just this point, it's only to the level of appreciation, it's far from the level of your liking for me."

"You are indeed a smart person..."

Mao Dun saw that Bai Su Mingming's eyes were covered by beauty, but his thinking was still so clear, he couldn't help giving him a high look, and immediately said: "In terms of strength, you are indeed worthy of my appreciation, but in the end I made up my mind to be with you The marriage is mainly due to your talent, or..."

"I see that with your ability, your every move in the future may affect the pattern of the world, so I decided to put all my remaining bargaining chips on you, for me...and for my Tribe, fight for a secure future."

Bai Su stroked his chin and said, "Didn't I already promise you these things, why did you marry me?"

After all, according to the conditions that the two parties just negotiated, after signing the covenant.

Building the Protectorate in the local area, doing business, private schools, trade, etc., so many benefits must be indispensable to her, so why bind yourself?

With his slender jade hands, Mao Dun held up a wine cup and shook it lightly.

With her green eyes, she glanced at the clarified wine, couldn't help but sneered, and laughed: "The reason why the covenant is valid now is because I am the Shanyu of the Huns. Once I gradually lose my military power, there will be no use for Daxia in name only." value, how much binding force will the covenant have at that time?"

"The covenant will only be effective if both parties have the strength. Otherwise, no matter how good the covenant is, it will be nothing more than a piece of paper. The final interpretation power is not up to you Daxia."

Looking at her mocking eyes, Bai Su couldn't help thinking secretly.

As expected of the hero of the grassland who was killed out of iron and blood, these little tricks really can't be hidden, her eyes.

Mao Dun raised his chin with one hand, and glanced at Bai Su with beautiful eyes: "Whether it's a covenant or an oath, in the future, with the change of time, the relationship between the two parties will undergo various changes in terms of strength and weakness."

"How many of the promises made today can be fulfilled in the future? Only a marriage that binds both parties to a rope is the most reliable."

"As for you, whether it is talent, appearance, or status, I am very satisfied. I decided to put the chips on you."

"If you are willing to marry with me, I will help you stabilize the people's hearts in the local area and establish the Protectorate, how about it?"

Facing the olive branch thrown by Mao Dun, Bai Su did not rush to agree, tapped his fingers on the table lightly, and fell into deep thought for a while.

It has to be said that Mao Dun saw things very thoroughly.

After Bai Su formulated these policies, it was only a matter of time before the grassland was annexed by the Central Plains.

She has no chance to compete with the Central Plains anymore. Instead of fighting meaninglessly, she is like a puppet who catches Xianyang and dances the Hu skirt dance for the first emperor.

It is obviously more wise to simply use the current bargaining chips to embrace a good thigh, and to find a commander in the future, or even an opportunity to protect the envoy.

Bai Su can also get the support of the people in Mobei, and how to command, train, and train a large-scale cavalry force.

It can be regarded as a win-win situation.

only……

As a person from the Central Plains, wouldn't it be inappropriate to enter into a marriage contract with a woman of a different race so easily?

Just when Bai Su was struggling, the guard suddenly opened the bank account and walked in quickly.

"My lord is not well, something happened..."

Bai Su was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help asking: "What happened, so flustered?"
