Chapter 108: Go Home Often

The two soldiers found on the plateau were Yue brothers from Shi'an who had surrendered. Their names were Usdin and Ushei.

The one-year tax exemption policy in Lantian, coupled with the promotion of standardized planting technology, has greatly benefited the local Han and Yue people. Every household has been assigned fields, and they have also made good profits, and they have hope and hope for food.

When Shi'an implemented and promoted various policies, it was easier than when Lantian was in Linwu County.

After the Yue people who came down from the mountains lived a stable life, they enthusiastically worshiped Lan Tian, ​​the initiator of the decree. When they heard that he was recruiting brave soldiers in Shi'an County, many young and strong mountain men took the initiative to join the army.

People who can speak Chinese and are clever can easily stand out among the Vietnamese soldiers. The two brothers Wusdin and Wushei are good seedlings discovered on the plateau. According to Lantian's policy of using foreigners to control foreigners during the war, such people can be cultivated.

Management surpasses people.

They were very excited to see the rumored brothers Lan Tian, ​​Usdin and Ushei and were very happy to act as translators for him.

After the Awatou people came in, Lantian asked about their tribe's living conditions in Yulin County. Because productivity was backward and they didn't know much about farming, they basically depended on the weather for food. They either went into the mountains to hunt, fish in the river, or just farmed.

Do trade with the Han people.

Seeing Ava's sly eyes, Lantian knew that this guy was definitely not serious about trading, and would probably take advantage of his ethnic advantages to gain benefits from the Han people. However, this was not a long-term deal, so the entire tribe was still wandering on the line of hunger.

"How many people are there in your tribe? How many people are there in your family?" Lan Tian continued to ask.

Jili Gulu's answer was translated by Usdin. There were more than 500 people in Ava's tribe. In addition to his old mother, there were seven or eight brothers and sisters in his family. The poorer he got, the more he needed to have children.

Ava is the eldest son in the family, and he is promoted to be the leader because of his quick mind. In fact, in a tribe with low productivity, there are not many privileges at all, and he has to be hungry when he should be.

After understanding the situation, Lan Tian asked: "Do you want your tribe to live a good life? Do you want your family to have enough to eat?"

After hearing this, Ava nodded sharply, thinking that the bastard didn't want to think about it.

"Since you have surrendered to the army in Shi'an, you will be the subjects of Lingling County from now on. The county will allocate food and salary every month. You can have enough to eat, but what about your family?"

Hearing this, Ava lowered his head. Their initial mission was to come to Shi'an to act as an internal response and cause damage, and then go to Lu Tan to collect the bounty in exchange for food.

Originally, Lan Tian really wanted to let them go, but in front of the fierce soldiers trapped in the camp, these "smart" guys did not dare to escape. They stayed because of their misunderstanding.

Lan Tian said with a smile: "I know you are a smart man, otherwise Lu Tan would not have sent you to Shi'an. Since Jiaozhou has evil intentions, we will capture him sooner or later, but now is not the time.

As long as you publicize the policies here and Liu Shijun's name, and send back the news about Jiaozhou, you can come here every month to receive rice. If you do well, I will have another reward. Maybe you can get it when you capture Jiaozhou.

I will give you an official title."

Ava's blood boiled when he heard this, and he quickly nodded in agreement.

In order to show his sincerity, Lan Tian gave each of the Ava tribesmen one stone of rice, and asked the two brothers Usdin and Ushei to cooperate.

Lantian positioned them as intelligence officers, but their slogan was to save the Yue people in Jiaozhou. Under the supervision of the two brothers Wusdin and Wushei, they became a private force.

Whether it is instigating the Yue people from Lingnan to migrate north, secretly doing some small damage to Jiaozhou, or capturing Jiaozhou in the future, it will be of great benefit, so Lantian is willing to spend grain and rice to support them.

"Husband, can these guys be trusted? Aren't you afraid that they will run away?" Lu Lingqi asked doubtfully after Ava and others left.

Lan Tian shook his head and said: "People's hearts are the most unpredictable, but the Yue people in Jiaozhou are indeed living a difficult life. Awa will definitely work hard for food and salary."

"Usdin, Ushei can trust them. Their parents, wives and children are all in Shi'an." Gao Yuan added.

"Well, a gentleman keeps his promise. As long as trust is established, it will be easy to handle. The food and salary of the Awa tribe will be distributed on time every month. You can also buy some rice and news." Lan Tian ordered.

"Wei." Gao Yuan said, cupping his fists.

Lantian waited for five days in Shi'an while Lu Tie returned from Yulin County by water to the county. With him was Lai Gong, the governor of Jiaozhou.

Lai Gong's life in Jiaozhou was difficult. Although Shi'an's plan failed, he heard that he had a powerful neighbor, and he had the idea of ​​getting close to him. After all, he was also a member of Liu Qi's sect.

As the saying goes, there is no acquaintance without fighting. To deal with Wu Ju and Shi Xie, Lai Gong must bring in strong reinforcements.

Lan Tian held a banquet at the county captain's house to wash away Lai Gong's dust. The county captain Gaoyuan, the officials Lu Tie and Lu Tan all attended to accompany him.

Lai Gong turned his back on the guests at the table. He picked up his wine glass and apologized to Lan Tian: "Last time, my superior Sima acted recklessly. Fortunately, the general was magnanimous. Isn't Lai going to accompany the general here?"

Lan Tian laughed and said: "Lai Fujun is serious, we are all working for the eldest son, why should we distinguish between you and me?"

"What the general said is that we are all Liu Fujun's people..." Lai Gongxin said, don't confuse the concepts. Liu Biao and Liu Qi are not the same person.

"It's all the same. Mr. Laifu is here to pick up General Lu this time? He suffered from some cold a few days ago, so he stayed in Shi'an for a few days. Is he feeling better now?" Lan Tian asked, looking at Lu Tan.

"Okay, okay..." Lu Tan replied quickly.

"I was outside the city just now and saw the general's soldiers were very powerful. It is said that there are tens of thousands of such soldiers? I wonder who trained them to be elite?" In Lai Gong's limited memory, there are no such soldiers in Jingzhou, let alone

A general who can run an army like this.

"Oh, this is all done by Gao Boping." Lan Tian replied with a smile.

"Gao Boping? Who is this?" Lai Gong looked confused.

"He was originally a general under Marquis Wen Lu Bu, Gao Shun, whose courtesy name was Boping. Have you never heard of Mr. Lai Fu?" Lan Tian said in surprise.

Lai Gong was surprised when he heard this. He hurriedly asked: "So he is the leader of the trapped camp?"

"It turns out Mr. Laifu knows." Lan Tian said with a slight smile.

"Why is General Lu Bu under the command of the eldest son? I heard that this man disappeared after the destruction of Xiapi City..." Lai Gong was surprised.

Lan Tian smiled modestly, "Zhuo Jing is the daughter of Marquis Wen. Since I am assisting the eldest son in Lingling, General Gao will naturally follow me..."

Lai Gong originally looked down upon Lan Tian, ​​but after listening to his explanation, everything made sense. Why did the eldest son Liu Qi, who was not good at military affairs, put down Shi'an's rebellion just after he took over as the prefect of Lingling? It turned out that there was such a terrifying existence behind him.

.

"It's disrespectful that Mr. Ziyu doesn't show his real face...it's disrespectful..." Lai Gong said with his hands in hand.

Lan Tian continued: "The eldest son often told me that Lai Fujun is a loyal person. Since Fujun's hometown is Lingling, why don't you go home often to visit?"
