Fufeng Song

In the early morning of the next day, after dealing with a few daily affairs, Lu Yao went to the school grounds for a routine inspection.It is quite satisfying to see that both the officers and soldiers practice formation and martial arts with great care and never slack off.He is also a great expert in marksmanship, and after watching it for a while, he felt itchy, so he simply went down to point out the omissions in the actions of several soldiers, and encouraged several soldiers who made rapid progress.Lu Yao already knew more than half of the hundreds of soldiers in the school field at the moment. Whoever was dedicated to training and who was a little lazy, he came up with the same one by one.

Two hours passed in a blink of an eye, and Lu Yao thought that since the transfer of the camp had been decided, he should notify Yousi in time, so he went to the governor's mansion.

After leaving the gate of the camp, there was the avenue, and Lu Yao walked along the avenue to the north of the city.At this time, the market is busy, and some vendors on both sides of the road are selling goods.The traffic on the road is dense, quite a bit crowded.Although most of the passers-by looked pale, compared to the ghostly scene a month ago, it was different after all.

After walking for a while, they came to a cross street.Turn right here, not far from the Han's blacksmith shop, which I passed by a few days ago.There is a two-story restaurant in the southeast corner of the street. The wood of the building is brand new, and it is a new house.Although the wine sold in the restaurant is extremely weak, it still attracts many customers to stay here, and Xue Tong is a frequent visitor here.

Lu Yao walked past the door of the restaurant, and suddenly heard a loud noise in the building, and a waiter from the shop flew out with arms crossed.Seeing that he was about to be seriously injured, Lu Yao rushed forward in a few steps and gently caught the waiter.

Putting down the waiter who was stunned by fright, Lu Yao walked forward.The people of Bingzhou are violent, and fights among the common people are almost daily. Lu Yao is not a soldier patrolling the city, so how can he care about this kind of business.

As soon as he took a step, several people crawled out amidst screams.A short and strong man in rough felt clothes chased him out from the restaurant, cursed a few words in a rough voice, and then went back into the building. He didn't know what he said, and many people in the restaurant burst into laughter. .

The man braided his hair into four long thick braids and hung a gold plaque around his waist. This is a unique custom of the Xianbei people.

Why are those Xianbei people again?Lu Yao frowned.He could barely understand a few words in Xianbei language, and the man's swearing just now was an extremely insulting language in Xianbei language.

Lu Yao stopped and thought for a while, whether to stop those Xianbei people from wanton recklessness?At this moment, several patrolmen rushed over from across the street, and the leader was a handsome young team leader.Lu Yao has been around these streets a lot, and he recognizes him as Liu Yan's capable subordinate, who is responsible for the security of a large area in the south of the city.Although Lu Yao never exchanged names with him, they recognized each other's faces.

The law and order of Jinyang City is within the purview of General Liu Yan. Now that his subordinates have arrived, it is inconvenient for Lu Yao to worry about it.He quickened his pace and walked towards the governor's mansion.

When I arrived at the governor's mansion to sign up, Wen Qiao came out a few moments later, not talking about official business, but said apologetically: "Today is a coincidence. My lord has something important to do, so I can't see Daoming for a while. If Daoming is free , might as well wait in the study for a while."

Wen Qiao raised his hand as a gesture, leading Lu Yao to the east wing, which is the study room that Wen Qiao and other civil servants often use, and sometimes it is also used to entertain guests.Lu Yao walked a few steps, suddenly his heart moved, and he asked immediately: "Could it be that the nobles from Xianbei are visiting?"

Wen Qiao nodded and said, "That's right, my lord sent a letter to Tuoba Xianbei a few days ago. Therefore, Duguzhe, the chief from the west of Tuoba Xianbei, came to see my lord."

It turns out that Tuoba Xianbei is not monolithic, but composed of more than a hundred tribes, large and small, which are divided into three tribes: Eastern, Central, and Western, each led by three great chiefs.The patriarch, Tuoba Luguan, ruled the east from himself, and lived in the north of Shanggu and the west of Ruyuan, bordering the Yuwen Department of Xianbei.Although Tuoba Luguan is the head of the clan in name, his strength and prestige are far inferior to his nephew, Tuoba Yiyi, the grandson of the former patriarch Liwei.

Tuoba Yiyi led all the ethnic groups in the central region and lived in Canhepo, Daijun.He once traveled to Mobei to inspect the tribes of the grasslands in the west, and within five years, the tribes surrendered to more than [-] countries.After that, Tuoba Yiyi responded to the imperial court's call to defeat the Xiongnu, and beheaded the famous Xiongnu generals, which greatly boosted his prestige. Therefore, he was granted the title of Grand Chanyu by the imperial court and was awarded a golden seal and purple ribbon.

Tuoba Yilu, the younger brother of Tuoba Yiyi, led all ethnic groups in the west and lived in Shengle, Dingxiang. His sphere of influence spread across Yunzhong, Wuyuan, Shuofang and other counties.Compared with Luguan and Yiyi, the strength of Tuoba Yilu's troops is slightly weaker, but it also controls more than [-] strings, making it one of the few powerful forces on the grassland.

The one who visited today was Dugu Zhe, the chief of the Dugu tribe, a very powerful tribe under Tuoba Yilu.This Xianbei tribe is close to Jinyang, and its strength is very strong. Even Yue Shigong had to treat it solemnly when the tribe's adults came to visit.

Wen Qiao explained a few words, and then asked: "Why, Daoming, have you seen them?"

Lu Yao smiled wryly and said: "Not only did I see it, but I also suffered a little loss. Those Xianbei people are really arrogant and rude." Then talking about last night and what he saw just now, Wen Qiao couldn't help shaking his head frequently, and sighed. : "Xianbei people are naturally barbaric. My lord sent Yang Qiao, the secretary of the army, to receive them a few days ago. It is very difficult for Yang Canjun to deal with it."

Lu Yao could only refuse to comment on this.The civil official who scolded his group yesterday was naturally Yang Qiao. His behavior was really hateful, but Lu Yao didn't want to criticize his colleagues behind their backs, so it was simply not him.

After chatting for a few more words, I suddenly remembered the luxurious horsewhip that I took from the Xianbei cavalry yesterday, so Lu Yao took out the horsewhip and solemnly handed it to Wen Qiao: "Brother Taizhen, please look at it. It was taken yesterday during the conflict with the Xianbei people Yes, seeing how expensive it is, it is probably for the Xianbei's own use. If it is convenient for Taizhen, you might as well give it back to them for me."

Wen Qiao borrowed the whip, looked at it intently, suddenly seemed to be a little distracted, then said that he had other business, left and went to busy with his own affairs.Lu Yao didn't mind, so he waited in the study.

After a while, there was loud drum music outside the governor's mansion, presumably Dugu Zhe and his party arrived.

Lu Yao waited for half an hour, but no one came to call him, so he took the scroll from the shelf and flipped through it.When I opened the book, this line of words came into my eyes: The Hu of Bingzhou is the evil bandit of the Xiongnu... Lu Yao felt familiar, and took a few more glances. It turned out that it was Chen Liuren Jiang Tong's "On Migration of Soldiers", and suddenly felt dull tasteless.

Jiang Tong used to be an official in the shogunate of Chengdu King Sima Ying with Lu Shiheng in the past, and Lu Yao knew a little about him.This person is quite accurate in the point that the Hu people who live together in the interior are bound to suffer.However, just like the common problem of literati in the dynasty, Jiang Tong wrote a magnificent article, enumerating the origins and beginnings of the Hu people in Yong, Liang, Qin, and other states, but did not come up with a truly aggressive countermeasure.How can it be easy to relocate millions of Hu people to their hometowns outside the Great Wall!What is the process?How to implement it?How to avoid contradictions in the implementation process?How to make up for the insufficient population after the Hu people moved out?

What's more, Jiang Tong's views are actually quite biased.In Lu Yao's view, the essence of the contradiction between the northern nomads and the Chinese people is nothing more than the transformation of strength and weakness.When the Huaxia nation was strong, the Hu people outside the Great Wall were naturally weak, and they had to bow their heads and obey orders, willing to be driven like eagles and dogs; when the Huaxia nation was weak, the Hu people took advantage of the situation to become stronger, and even coveted artifacts in an attempt to gain control of the Central Plains.There is no third case in between.Unless the regime of the Han people can show the Hu people that they are strong, no amount of planning is doomed to be useless.

The root cause of today's corruption is not that there are too many Hu people scattered in the Central Plains, but that the ruling class of the imperial court with the Sima family at its core has been corrupted to an unbelievable degree.At this point in their own decline, those Hu people are in the heart or outside the Great Wall, how will the final result be different?

Lu Yao put the "On the Migration of Soldiers" back to its original place, and was about to look for other books to read, when suddenly there was a commotion outside the door, the sound of chaotic footsteps resounded densely, and some people shouted and cursed in extreme anger: "Get out of the way! I'm going to meet the lord now, and I will never give up with them!"

Who is so bold?Thinking so, Lu Yao walked to the door of the study and looked out.

Looking at it at a glance, you can't be surprised.Standing in the front hall of the Governor's Mansion and roaring furiously, it was actually Liu Yan.Seeing that his face was flushed and the muscles on his cheeks twitched slightly due to the clenched teeth, he was undoubtedly extremely angry.Around him were several civil servants on duty in the governor's mansion who kept persuading him, but obviously it didn't work.

This really confused Lu Yao.You must know that Yue Shigong is certainly a well-known general in command of the army, but when it comes to the status in the hearts of Sima Yue, the king of the East China Sea, he is not as good as his elder brother Liu Yu and Liu Qingsun.Liu Yu is the king of the East China Sea, Zuo Changshi, who is in charge of court secrets and participates in important military and state affairs. He is one of the three famous men known as the "Three Talents of Yuefu".And Liu Yan is the son of Liu Yu and the nephew of Duke Yueshi!

With this relationship, who in Yue Shigong's shogunate can make Liu Yan look like this?Lu Yao was thinking about it, but Liu Yan had already caught sight of him.He yelled loudly: "Lu Daoming! I didn't expect you to be here too! Come, come, come with me to meet the lord and be a witness!" He said and stepped forward quickly, grabbing Lu Yao's wrist.

Lu Yao was really puzzled, and he couldn't forcefully break free, so he could only ask repeatedly: "General Liu, brother Shi! Don't worry, just tell me, why are you so angry?"

After a pause, Lu Yao persuaded again: "I heard that the Lord is receiving distinguished guests from Xianbei at this moment, if I go to see you rashly, I'm afraid it will be inconvenient."
