Eight Hills in the Eastern Jin Dynasty

The latest website: Tuobagui's spirit was refreshed, and he quickly asked: "How Muronghui solved it, Cui Taishou quickly said."

Cui Cheng smiled slightly: "It's actually easy, that is, let the people of Hebei not pay grain as tax, but instead switch it to mulberry to enrich the military."

Tuobagui was stunned for a while, then turned angrily: "What is this? Isn't mulberry the fruit of a mulberry tree? How can this person eat it?"

Cui Yun sighed: "According to the legal system of the Central Plains, in addition to food and food, the people also have to pay cloth as a tax. Therefore, the land that the common people share is farmed on flat land, and the farmland and mountains are planted with mulberry trees. Because it eats mulberry leaves, and silkworms are the source of silk spinning and the output of cloth. It can be said that only mulberry trees have silkworms and only cloth. This is the basic truth of the world. "

Tuobagui's anger did not disappear, he said in a deep voice: "According to your opinion, Muronghui does not receive food, but harvests the mulberry fruits from the mulberry trees planted by these people, so that his subordinates can eat these wild fruits to feed their hunger?"

Cui Cheng nodded: "Yes, because when Houyan was established, people were in war in Hebei, people were displaced, and the fields were barren and uncultivated, but these mulberry trees can grow on their own without fertilization and weeding. It does n’t even require people to pick it specifically. It will fall naturally in the fall, and there are mountains and fields everywhere, just pick it up. "

"In our Central Plains region, there are natural disasters almost every year. Although it is sometimes said that there is relief from the court, more often, it is good that the court does not come to collect taxes. It does not control the life and death of the people at all, so it can only rely on itself without rice. You can only eat these wild fruits and survive this year of disaster. Not only Murong Cui, when the Wei Wei eradicated Shi Zhao, the northern war, and there were no recultivators, there were countless people who survived on these mulberries. Although the taste of wild fruit is not good, it can be hungry, and it is better than starving. If it is more difficult, it can eat grass root bark. Compared to these, mulberries are already delicious. "

Er Zhuyujian gritted his teeth: "Our warriors outside the fortress, not far away, are bathing in the sand, just to come to the Central Plains to eat wild fruits? What is the difference from monkeys and squirrels?"

Cui Cheng shook his head and said calmly: "The Book of Songs has a cloud. Even after the owl eats mulberry, the voice will change. Lord Erzhu, you are male Saibei, but your majesty is going to the Central Plains this time, and you will also follow in the future Settled in the Central Plains, became a farming nation like the Han people, and then holding the old customs of drinking and eating meat on the grasslands, I am afraid it will not work, because there is no vast grassland in the Central Plains to give you cattle and sheep, you have to learn to eat grains Miscellaneous grains, now, have to endure first, eat these mulberry fruits. "

A trace of displeasure flashed on Tuobagui's face: "That Cui Taishou means, my warriors, have to live by eating these wild fruits these months?"

Cui Yun nodded: "If your majesty wants to destroy the swallow and not retreat, then it's best to do so. Not only that, you'd better dispatch soldiers to search all over Hebei, especially the forested land, to collect mulberries, now it's worth it In summer, fruits fall on the ground in large quantities. If they are not collected in time, I am afraid that they will rot in a few days, and rotten fruits cannot become food. "

Tuobagui's face was full of anger, and he said in a deep voice: "Cui Taishou, please understand one thing, now my soldiers are all going to come in handy, besieging the city for help, guarding the new Zhanzhou County, no one can't be less, just Even Master Helan could n’t divide her troops to get through the food channel for a few months. If I had enough troops in my hands, would I still make everyone have no food to eat, and would I have to collect your wild fruits to feed my hunger? ”

Cui Yun's face changed, she quickly knelt down, and said repeatedly: "Wei Chen was at a loss for words, capital crimes, capital crimes, and also asked Han to lower his punishment."

Tuobagui's anger slightly eased, stood up, walked in front of Cui Yun, lifted him, and said in a deep voice: "Cui Taishou, I can experience your loyalty, but please also understand my warriors Feeling that soldiers eat food, even without food, but also eat wild fruits, not only have to eat, but also have to pick it up, I am afraid that overnight, most of my generals will abandon me, here is Central Plains, your hometown of Han Chinese, is not the present home of our prairie boys. Once they feel unsatisfactory or insulted, they will want to go home. If the soldiers have no fighting spirit, then how can we destroy the yan? Our great cause is not successful. At this time, you turned to Dawei and Murong's Yan Kingdom. Will you let you go? "

Cui Yun even said: "It's Weichen's thoughts, I'm sorry, Your Majesty."

Zhang Yun also said, "Your Majesty, Cui Taishou is loyal, but he does not understand the customs of the prairie, he does not know the character of the prairie boy who drinks and eats meat, and is happy to be enemies, so he will speak out, and please see him loyal to Dawei For your sake, spare him this time. "

Tuobagui's eyes turned and smiled: "Cui Taishou is loyal. Why do you blame? After all, you gave the army an idea to solve the problem of military food. However, I just said that the army now has combat missions. You ca n’t divide troops to pick wild fruits. Let ’s see it like this. Now I ’m granting you the post of Cao Shangshu. You go to recruit the Hebei people who are willing to submit to my great Wei. You do n’t necessarily need your Lu family, Cui ’s neighbors, even Those who have n’t eaten or drank, can also recruit ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ and tell them, follow me Tuobagui, have meals, and have a bite of wild fruit from our great Wei soldiers, and they have a bite. "

A trace of joy flashed on Cui Yun's face: "If you have this word from your majesty, why don't you worry about the great cause? I will go to mobilize the people in Hebei, and I will definitely let the army stand through this period. If the Chinese people know that your majesty would rather divide The military food will also control their life and death.

Tuobagui nodded with satisfaction: "Cui Shangshu, don't let me down. And Lu Shishi, you can start now, I can't divide many soldiers here, I can only let my private guard help you, after all The strength of the swallow thief is still there. If you use a cavalry to assault, your Han people will be hard to resist. Where is General Daxi? "

A brave and brave young general, who made his promise: "Da Xijin is here." This person is the warrior Da Xijin of the Hexi Grassland Daxi Department. Since then, he has been fighting for Tuoba Han and defeating the Tiefu Huns. Tuobagui also put his court guard in his hands. It was a forbidden general and he died.

Tuobagui said in a deep voice: "I now order you to lead my five hundred guards and follow Lu Jianshi to Fan Yang to transport food. Remember, you must protect Lu Shishi's food team. How important, you should be clear. Now, come with me to get the Tiger Rune! "
