The Three Kingdoms: Summoned generals at the beginning, shocking Cao Cao

Chapter 227

Liu Bian was suddenly disappointed.

"Send someone to investigate nearby. The location here may be a big gold mine!"

"Obey my son!"

Sure enough, after a thorough investigation, many traces of gold mines were found in the nearby streams and rivers.

The entire territory of the White Bear Tribe can be said to be located on a large gold mine.

"Fengshui treasure land!"

Looking at the report back, Liu Bian was almost drooling.

"Son, what shall we do then?"

"What else can we do? Immediately build a city here, garrison troops and horses, and then recruit people to mine!" Liu Bian said.

"My lord, I don't have enough manpower, I'm afraid it will be difficult to recruit." Bai Qi said.

It is two thousand miles away from Liaodong, and it is very difficult to travel long distances.

"No matter what, if it is difficult to recruit manpower, we will replenish it from the local area!"

"Master, how can I supplement this? Are you going to capture the prisoners?"

"In that case, the efficiency is too low." Liu Bian shook his head.

"Also ask the son to give pointers."

"Didn't we subdue some Sushen tribes and Fuyu tribes now? Give them some weapons and equipment, and ask them to search for barbarian captives nearby for us, and use these captives as labor labor to mine gold." Liu Bian said.

Afterwards, Liu Bian explained a whole set of procedures.

Use the iron weapons in the hands of the Han army, as well as silk, sugar and other commodities, to exchange captives from these surrendered tribes.

Then, these subjugated tribes want to launch wars with other tribes around them, plunder their population, destroy their villages, and wipe out the barbarians along the way.

In the end, the Han army harvested these captives and used them to mine gold mines. The gold produced was transported back to the Central Plains in exchange for a large number of commodities.

"Young master's plan is really wonderful!" After Bai Qi heard it, he immediately clapped his hands and applauded.

According to Liu Bian's strategy, it can not only solve the problem of insufficient labor, but also make the various barbarian tribes kill each other.

Before long, the hatred between them will be so deep that they will no longer be able to unite with each other.

Moreover, after this kind of massacre, there will be fewer and fewer barbarian tribes around.

"Go and find all the vassal tribes, I want to reorganize them!" Liu Bian said.

"Follow your orders, son!"

Afterwards, Bai Qi summoned the leaders of the various Sushen tribes who came with the army.

Liu Bian told them that the Han Dynasty had now conquered this place.

They will be reorganized in order to replenish the population, and to give them a chance to make meritorious deeds and show their loyalty.

"From now on, there will be no more austerity, no more Fuyu or Yajiu. You are all from the Heishui Prefecture of the Great Han!"

"The original tribal names are no longer allowed, and you will all have new names!"

"You are the various banners under the control of the Heishui Dufu of the Great Han Dynasty. The eight banners of white, red, yellow, and blue are your new titles!"

All the leaders of the Sushen tribe were trembling with fright, and no one dared to object.

joke.

All the resisters along the way of the Han army were killed, and no one dared to question it.

"I am willing to serve the big man!"

"Long live the big man!"

"Long live the big man!"

In the midst of cheers, the Han Dynasty's "Blackwater Eight Banners" was born.

These Blackwater Eight Banners soldiers will become the vanguard fighters of the Han army in the Blackwater dense forest.

These Heishui Eight Banners soldiers burned, killed and looted the nearby Sushen tribe.

A large population was quickly captured.

Liu Bian was very satisfied after seeing this, and immediately ordered Bai Qi to summon the bravest of these Blackwater Eight Banners soldiers to accept the award.

"My lord, these people are the most hardworking Eight Banners warriors now." Bai Qi said.

Liu Bian saw that these people were all tall and round, fat and strong, with fleshy faces.

It doesn't look good at first glance.

"What's your name?" Liu Bian asked.

In front of the Han army, these Eight Banners warriors were very obedient, like quails, without any arrogance and domineering in front of the Sushen compatriots in the past.

"My lord, my name is Barutu."

"Young Master Qi, my name is Nurha."

"My lord, my name is Lvtaiji."

"Young Master Qi, my name is Ao Sheng."

Liu Bian burst out laughing when he heard these names.

"Okay, okay, these are all good names, and once I hear you, you are very loyal."

Niang Xipi.

In fact, what he was thinking in his heart was that these are the Blackwater barbarians, and even these names are so similar.

These people were immediately very happy when they heard Liu Bian's praise.

"You are all loyal men now, so I decided to teach and reward you."

"Thank you son, we are willing to go through life and death for the big man, go up the mountain of swords and go down into the sea of ​​fire, and we will do whatever we want."

Among these people, Nurha is the best at flattering.

"Okay, since you are so loyal, I decided to give them surnames."

Afterwards, Liu Bian gave them a few Han surnames, and these leaders of the Sushen Eight Banners immediately expressed their gratitude.

Then, Liu Bian said to Bai Qi.

"Now, on behalf of the imperial court, I officially canonize Bai Qi as Duke of Haidong County."

Hearing Liu Bian's canonization, Bai Qi was also surprised, and finally overjoyed.

"My lord, I'm afraid I can't bear such a generous reward."

Liu Bian waved his hand.

"You can definitely afford this credit, and it's not just a credit, it's also a responsibility after it's sealed."

It turned out that this place was too far away from the Central Plains, and Liu Bian felt that relying on tens of thousands of Han soldiers would not be enough to rule for a long time.

Another new method must be implemented, which is naturally the method of conferring foreign vassal states.

"The Principality of Haidong County, since Heishui and all areas east and north of Heishui, you can conquer by yourself. All military and political affairs can be cut first and played later, hereditary and not replaced, and your descendants will inherit them together."

Hearing this award, Bai Qi was speechless with excitement.

Just listen to Liu Bian continue to speak.

"From now on, these Eight Banners of Sushen will also be your servants, Duke Haidong."

Bai Qi said: "Young master, don't worry, I will definitely do my best in the future, risk my life, and expand the territory for the great man. I will do my best."

"Okay, from now on, you are all the slaves of Duke Haidong, and you are willing to be this slave."

Liu Bian said to several leaders of the Eight Banners of Sushen.

When Nurhachi and others heard this, they immediately knelt down, kowtowed and shouted long live.

"Don't worry, my lord, we are all one hundred willing and one thousand willing."

"That's right, Master, even if you are a big dog, it is a hundred times better than being a Su Shen."

"My lord, it's not just a hundred times, it's a thousand times better."

When Liu Bian heard this, he also laughed happily.

"You Eight Banners people are really good dogs for big men."
