[Red Mansion] The happiness of a winner in life

After more than a month in a row, everything here is calm.Previously, the Rongdi people of the Kedan tribe were all confined in place, and troops were sent to guard them, but there was no sign of the royal tribe contacting them.

After a long time, some generals stationed here began to mutter, secretly guessing where the Rongdi people went.Their side is either the Zhenbei Army or the Conquer the North Army. At this time, most of the Rongdi people have run away without a trace, and some are worried that they will be called back.

Jia Amnesty and Shui Ze were still stable, they speculated that Rong Di might have gone to invade other places, and temporarily ignored this piece of withered and yellow grassland.

These nomads all move their locations with the seasons, but they also have approximate ranges.Especially in this piece of grassland bordering the water country, it stands to reason that not only the Kedan tribe will be left.

But the scouts searched for them several times but couldn't find them. The Rongdi people really evacuated the grassland temporarily.However, there was an agreement between Shuiguo and Rongdi, and their army could not step into the grassland for no reason.

Jia Amnesty was about to make a move, but was stopped by Mizusawa.Although such an agreement may seem a bit silly, it has effectively maintained the relationship between the water country and various ethnic groups or small countries around it.

If Rong Di stepped into their land at this time because Rong Di was not here, I am afraid that other small countries will cause many disturbances.After all, the king of Meng, who was actually in charge of Rong Di, was not there, and an official letter of credence was required to negotiate a peace or surrender.

Jia Amnesty, who was sitting in the main tent reading military books, put down the book and rubbed the bridge of his nose.Every day I go to the barracks to read books, life is really too boring.

Mizusawa, who was checking the roster of rations, put down his pen, and walked around behind Jia Amnesty to massage his shoulders and necks.When Jia She felt a little more comfortable, he held his hand and pulled him to sit on a chair beside him.

Putting Mizusawa's hands together, he gently rubbed Mizusawa's somewhat stiff and cold hands.Jia She sighed, and said with some regret: "It's such a great opportunity now, it's a pity to miss it."

Mizusawa smiled and replied: "The opportunity that can only be missed is not a good opportunity, so don't be too sorry. Besides, even if the army can't step in, we have already secretly drawn a good map, and we have already gained a lot."

Jia She smiled relievedly, and said with some regret: "I knew that Kedan was spared at the beginning, and he surrendered on behalf of the royal family. Now we are waiting here, and we have to support those soldiers for nothing." Di people."

Shui Ze's eyes flashed, and he said hesitantly: "Tell me, if these Rong Di people and Han people are required to intermarry..."

Jia She said without hesitation: "If you intermarry, it will naturally erode the Mongolian country after a long time. But don't forget, these Rongdi people still have the blood of the people of the water country on their hands, they will not be willing."

Seeing that Shui Ze still had some ideas, Jia She paused for a moment and continued: "Now wait for the royal family to show up. If there is an opportunity in the future... move these Rong and Di people to the interior, then it will be easier to ask for intermarriage."

Mizuze was a little puzzled, "But the value of these Rongdi people is that they can provide us with good horses. If they move to the interior, they will not be able to raise horses. By then, the vacant grassland will not be able to grow food. Naturally, no people are willing to come here. "

The water country has always been based on agriculture. For the people of the water country, there is no sense of security in life without land, and there is no capital to settle down.

People like them who are used to the land will not be happy to move here, especially because the climate here is much colder than that in the interior, and they are not used to it.

Jia Amnesty noticed that the hands in the palm of his hand had gradually warmed up, and took out a pair of rabbit fur gloves from the desk drawer to help Shui Ze put them on.While helping Mizusawa put on the gloves, Jia Amnesty talked about his thoughts.

"There are two reasons why there are good horses here. One is that the parents of the horses are already excellent, and the cubs are naturally good. The second is that the grassland here is large enough for these horses to gallop and run, maximizing their potential.

Under such a premise, even if we can get better after a year or two by replacing the Rongdi people, we naturally don't have to stick to these Rongdi people, the people of our water country can do it. "

Mizusawa lowered his eyelids and pondered, "That's true. But our people don't want to come here, so no one wants to live here and raise horses."

Jia She said with a smile, "There are quite a few Rongdi people, and I'm afraid we can only transfer some of them. We only need to occupy the grasslands of these people, and build Huangzhuang here to raise horses.

When this group of Rongdi people merges in, and another group is forcibly transferred, I am afraid that they themselves will forget that they should gallop on the grassland from generation to generation.One day these Rongdi people will become completely Han Chinese. "

Mizusawa was a little horrified, and looked at Jia She who made the suggestion in surprise, Jia She seemed at ease as if he didn't realize that this was a big poisonous plan.

In this day and age, forgetting one's ancestors is the most despicable thing.What Jia Amnesty has to do is to force them to forget their own culture and ancestors, and bathe in the Central Plains culture forever.

Jia Amnesty reached out and touched Shui Ze's hair helplessly, "What are you thinking? Didn't Xianbei integrate into us so thoroughly back then? If you want to reduce your enemies, you have to make them all like us."

Seeing that Shui Ze still couldn't accept it, Jia She explained: "At the beginning of the establishment of the Tuoba clan, they also killed many Han people in an attempt to bring the Xianbei style to the Central Plains, but how do you see the results?

In the end, the Tuoba family was forced to have no choice but to order the Xianbei people to intermarry with the Han people. It was even forbidden to wear Hu clothes, and even the Xianbei language was banned in the court, and the Xianbei surname was changed to a Chinese surname.

One is that Xianbei did not dare to act rashly because of the large number of Han people.The second is because our Confucian culture is conducive to the rule of the dynasty.Our culture is more advanced than theirs, and even if they beat us militarily, they still have to integrate with us in the end. "

Mizusawa opened his mouth but was speechless. He had seen this history before, but he didn't think much about it.As a Han nationality, he was only subconsciously proud of the advancement of the Han nationality, but he did not consider his interests.

Jia Amnesty placed a light kiss on Shui Ze's cheek, "As a monarch, his actions are destined not to be determined solely by his preferences. For a ruler, there are only eternal interests, and personal preferences are only secondary."

Mizusawa suddenly raised his head and asked, "What about our future? Do we only have interests in the future?"

Jia Amnesty looked at Shui Ze strangely, "This is just at the national level, if it doesn't involve the operation of the entire country, why don't we just do whatever we want?"

Some added earnestly: "Rongdi should not be underestimated. If we let them go, it will definitely become a serious problem for us. We are doing this for the sake of the whole country. Why should we sympathize with a nation whose women and children have blood on their hands?"

Shui Ze put away the sympathy he shouldn't have, "It's true, these Rongdi people grew up drinking the blood of our people, we don't need to be too sympathetic to them."

Seeing that Shuizawa figured it out, Jia Amnesty felt a little relieved. Recently, he looked at Shuize and seemed to be a little soft-hearted towards the group of Rongdi people who were kept in captivity, and he just reminded him specially.

Shui Ze came to the border for a short time, and it is normal to see these women, children and children being soft-hearted.If he hadn't seen Rongdi's women and children participating in the robbery with his own eyes, he would have softened his heart at this moment.

For Yu Mizusawa, the army is to serve the royal family. It is their glory for these people to die for the country, and the people are the objects to be protected.

But in Rongdi, anyone who can run and ride a horse will participate in the battle. It can be said that all the people are soldiers.At best, the tasks assigned to women and children are lighter, but they are not considered unarmed and innocent people.

While the two were talking, Jia Da came in suddenly. "Marshal, the scout team that went deep into the grassland has returned and said they have something important to report."

Shui Ze returned to his seat and sat down, Jia Amnesty straightened his clothes and said, "Let someone come in and answer."

A group of five people came in from outside, Jia She stopped them when they were about to salute. "You don't need to salute, just sit down and talk."

There are 500 scouts in the Beibei Army, all of whom are selected from the best soldiers.Although these five people are all centurions, they enjoy the treatment of half a level higher.

The five people did not refuse, and took a big sip of water after sitting down.Several people began to explain the investigation situation of their soldiers in order, trying to explain the situation clearly.

Jia Amnesty listened to what they said, looked at the more detailed map drawn, and couldn't help but fell into deep thought.According to them, five hundred scouts were scattered and there were less than 50 casualties.

However, they have traveled as far as more than 100 kilometers away, but they can only see traces of the life of Rongdi people.According to the situation indicated by the traces, that should be the direction of Uzi country.

When Mizusawa heard Uzi, he also stood up and went to the map. "This country of Uzi is a small country with a population of three to four million, and the food production is not abundant. What are these Rongdi people doing there?"

Jia Amnesty glanced at Mizusawa in surprise, and vaguely recalled that he had read the residence newspaper of Honglu Temple.Nodding his head to indicate that Mizusawa continued to talk about the situation of Uzi, he slid his hand on the map.

The five hundred households present looked at each other, and were surprised to find that the princess really knew something about Uzi.They didn't know much, but as far as they knew the princess was right.

Jia Amnesty ignored the eyebrow-eye lawsuit below, "The population of Rong and Di is about 120 million, and the population directly belonging to the royal family is more than 70. We have 30 people in our side, and now there are only 15 people left. King Meng brought so many People go over there..."

The finger rests on the southwest of Uzi. If I remember correctly, the latitude there should be the same as that of the mainland, and the climate seems to be warmer.

To the east of the country of Uzi is the Kuba Desert and the western plateau of the country of water, and to the south is the Qiulang plateau. The whole country is distributed in the west of the country of water in a long strip.

Due to the obstruction of the plateau and desert, they did not have many exchanges with Uzi, and only kept the frequency once a year.But at this time, Rong Di bypassed the northern part of Uzi, probably because he wanted to directly invade the entire country.

Seeing that the winter has been getting longer and colder in recent years, I am afraid that King Meng wants to end the precarious days in the grassland and find a place for Rong Di to settle down.

In this way, the remaining 30 Mongolian troops under the command of Kedan probably wanted to restrain their strength, lest they be transferred away to support Uzi.
