Chapter 291 Little Loach Turned into a Hidden Dragon

Even though He Jin said so, Dong Mao stood up and bowed deeply.

"When I was recruiting two thousand mercenaries in Lintao, there were a total of two thousand mercenaries, including Huwa's beggar brothers and sisters, which is the strength of four brigades. The first and second brigades were led by Huwa, the first brigade was led by Dong Xiaoyi, the second brigade was Sun Niu from Lintao, the third brigade was led by Yao Shan, and the fourth brigade was led by Hua Xiong, and the two thousand mercenaries were supervised by the lower officials. "

"When Huwa personally led 5,000 cavalry to attack the Hehuang Valley, he was the last general of Yuzhong, the Warriors and the two cities were in charge of the general manager, supervising 30,000 Dongbu Yisong, and over 10,000 old and weak recruits recruited by Longxi County."

"When the Yellow Turban Thief rebelled, Huwa had two choices with Xiaguan. One was that Xiaguan led 10,000 elite cavalrymen followed his father to fight the thieves, and the other was that Huwa personally led 10,000 soldiers to follow his father to fight the Central Plains. Xiaguan stayed in the Hehuang Valley and served as the general manager of the Hehuang Valley, supervising the 30,000 to 400,000 soldiers and civilians in the Hehuang Valley, including two 10,000 tents."

"It was only because my Dong family sold the Lintao field to the Didao Li family that Li Kuan, the former prefect of Longxi County, slaughtered the people of Lintao too much, causing the people to rebel, causing the people to be dissatisfied with our Dong family, and the officials had to stay in the Hehuang Valley. Huwa led his troops to Lintao, and then followed his father to the Central Plains to quell the rebellion."

"When Huwa led his troops to Yingchuan County, he was violent, but he recruited 50,000 Yingchuan soldiers for the court, and recruited food for the soldiers to fight for one year. However, in order to avoid the turmoil of the army, Huwa and the princess returned to Luoyang together and resigned from the position of Cavalry Commander. Ten thousand Liangzhou soldiers were led by his father."

Dong Mao clasped his fists and bowed to He Jin, who looked weird.

"The Xiaguan said this just to tell the general something that Huwa didn't care about the position of Liangzhou Mu. The reason why Xiaguan agreed with the Empress "Liangzhou Mu" was that the position could only allow more volatile Liangzhou thieves to bow their heads and surrender."

"Huwa's reputation has always been very good. The people of Hanyang County may have just heard of Huwa, but the people of Longxi County will surrender as soon as Huwa enters Liangzhou. The people of Longxi County may not believe in anyone in the imperial court, but trust Huwa. This is true if they have the position of Liangzhou Governor."

"The tiger's house came out of the grassland from the north of Jilusai. The purpose must be to sweep the road to enter the Zhangye Juyan State. There are 14 cities in Wuwei County and 10,000 households, 34,000 households; 6,500 households in the eight cities in Zhangye County, 26,000 households in the nine cities in Jiuquan County, 41,000 households in the four cities in Dunhuang County, 30,000 households..."

"There are 30,000 households in the four counties in Hexi, and 100,000 households. However, since the second year of Zhongping, Han Sui led 5,000 people to the four counties, only 50,000 followers from the four counties, and there are almost no young and strong people in the four counties."

After listening to these data, everyone sighed. In the calculation of the population of the Han Dynasty, the number of boys who were five years old was required to pay the count tax. In other words, the five-year-old boys were counted in the sequence of "Ding", with a population of 100,000. In addition to the "Ding" of the doll, and the 50,000 people who followed Han Sui's rebellion, although there were many elderly, weak, women and children among these 50,000 people, not all men were strong, but if the males who were slaughtered during the rebellion of the four counties of Liangzhou were removed, how many young and strong men were left in the four counties of Hexi?

Dong Mao continued: "According to Huwa's military deployment, the troops on the eastern front must be targeted at the Xianbei of Danhanshan, and the soldiers on the western front were to deal with the rebellion of the Qiang people in the Mobei grassland and Liangzhou. However, Huwa led tens of thousands of cavalry out of the frontier this year, naturally to clear the threat from the three Hetao counties and prepare for entering Liangzhou. In other words, after Huwa cleared the threat from the Mobei grassland, the troops on Shuofang County on the western front were only Liangzhou, and how many soldiers and horses are there in Shuofang County? 20,000 military farm infantry and 10,000 elite cavalry."

"Thirty thousand elite infantry cavalry entered the four counties of Hexi, and there were 40,000 to 50,000 Dongbuyi from the military farming camp and 80,000 elite soldiers entered the four counties of Hexi. Only some old and weak counties were left. The land of the four counties would be recaptured by Huwa without any surprise. Under the threat of 80,000 elite infantry cavalry, Longxi County would definitely surrender first. In this way, only Hanyang County was left. Whether there was a position of "Liangzhou Governor" was needed to give Huwa a year or two. Huwa sent only one general to recapture the entire Liangzhou. Let Huwa be the governor of Liangzhou, which is nothing more than making it easier to pacify the thieves in Hanyang County."

Dong Mao said calmly: "Huwa doesn't care whether the court gives him official positions or not. Huwa himself doesn't care about these things, but it concerns the attitude of the generals below and whether the generals below agree with the court."

After Dong Mao held his fists to He Jin, he looked at Yuan Shao again, and said expressionlessly: "What Yuan Zhengwei said is right. Huwa is the King of Qiang in Hehuang, but the Qiang Han Dynasty was originally a family. Yan Emperor of the Three Emperors and Five Emperors was a Qiang, King Wu of Zhou, Jiang Shang was a Qiang, Qin Shihuang, and the old Qin people were also Qiang people, but they were also Han people. Huwa took advantage of the civil strife in Meiji Shanyu Court and captured 200,000 Huns in one fell swoop, but he changed them all to the Han surname instead of incorporating them into the Qiang people. Yuan Zhengwei should know that although Huwa has the bloodline of Qiang people, he is actually the baby of the Han people in Lintao."

"Whether hundreds of thousands of people are in the Hehuang Valley or hundreds of thousands of people in Yanmen County, whether it is Qiang, Xiongnu, or Han people, there are some scholars who teach the children, Han family men's poetry, books and etiquette."

After saying that, Dong Mao stopped talking and sat back on his grass dumplings silently, but he missed the comfortable rattan chair made by the tiger baby even more...

Dong Mao said this, Yuan Shao, Liu Biao and others were all blushed and thick-necked. Just the words of the "King of Qiang". Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, Liu Biao and others were not worried. After all, the "King of Qiang" could not compete for dominance in the world, but if they transformed from "King of Qiang" into the "Prince of the Han Dynasty" officials, it would be different.

Dong Huyi emphasized that he was the "King of Qiang" because of the special military system of the Han Dynasty. The Han Dynasty did not allow generals to command too many soldiers. No matter how arrogant the generals were, the maximum number of regular soldiers was only 2,000 soldiers. If you wanted to always control tens of thousands or even more soldiers, you could only become the Qianghu King who was not under the control of the Han Dynasty.

But now it is different. Liu Yan submitted a statement to "Prince of the State", which is the "Journey General" who is in charge of the military, government and civil laws of a state. As long as you can raise a horse, you will be allowed to raise 500,000 troops and horses, which is also allowed in theory. In other words, Dong Hu transformed into the governor of Liangzhou, and also had the right to command 100,000 troops and horses, and also officially became a real-power official in the formal organization of the Han Dynasty!

Yuan Shao was so angry that his nostrils were swelling, and Cao Cao smiled bitterly in his heart. They had always regarded Dong Hu as the little loach in the pond. Even if they held 100,000 elite troops, they would at most be another powerful Hun. As long as the Han Dynasty solved its own problems, with the national strength of the Han Dynasty, it was strong enough to deal with another powerful "Hunnu" tribe. But now, the little loach in the wild has transformed into a Qianlong in the abyss, and it would not be possible to make that boy become a Qianlong!

The man had a red face and thick neck, and He Jin didn't know what it felt like. As Dong Mao said, no matter whether the court wanted to do so or not, the boy had enough power to occupy the entire Liangzhou and gave him a false name to the governor of Liangzhou. He could show his kindness more or less, gain some favors from the generals under Dong Hu's name, and interfere in the Liangzhou affairs. Otherwise, the court would be kicked by the boy to the side and do it alone.

After discussing with the three ministers, He Jin knew that the court actually had no chance to choose, and had already compromised in his heart, and was willing to tie it with the Dong family to ascend to the throne of a true general, rather than being a false reputation now.

After a moment...

"Yu Gui said right. The sooner the turmoil in Liangzhou is to calm down, the more beneficial it will be for the stability of the world. This general also agrees with Dong Duwei as the governor of Liangzhou. However... Is it inappropriate for Prefect Cai and Eunuch Guo to serve as the princess's left and right commander? Shouldn't it be safer?"

When He Jin said these words, his subordinates knew the final decision of the boss. It was unlikely that he would stop Dong Hu, but when he heard the last sentence, they all sat upright.

Dong Mao glanced out of the corner of his eyes and then clasped his fists and said, "The general may not know Huwa's personality very well. No one has anything to do with the princess's left and right envoy. How can I say it... For example, Huwa is in front of General Huangfu and General Lu said in front of Guangzong City, their path is different from Huwa's path. The subordinates and aides around the princess cannot hinder Huwa's path. Once it is hindered, it will only make Huwa disgusted."

Everyone was speechless. The court asked the little princess to lead people to Yanmen County, but wasn't it just to block the road? If everything was followed by the little bastard's path, what would the little princess take the risk?

Dong Mao ignored how others thought about it and said, "For example, when Beigong Boyu, Shaodang Lao Wang, Han Sui and others rebelled, it was also for the sake of the world. Huwa believed that killing all the rebels, branding their words and chopping their fingers, was considered safe. General Huangfu recruited them to comfort the Qiang people in Liangzhou to avoid the turmoil caused by rebellion, but at the same time, it also suspected that Huwa would be difficult to control it."

"If you have merits and rewards and punishments, no matter what the reason is, you will rebel. As long as you rebel, loot, kill the people, and humiliate women, you must be severely punished. Only in this way can you punish evil and promote good, and give fairness and justice to the people, and make Liangzhou safe completely. There will be no waste of national treasury and national taxes, which will benefit the country and the people."

"Similarly, recruiting and pacifying the Qiang people to rebel and appease countless Qiang people in Liangzhou to calm Liangzhou in a short period of time, and also keeping Liangzhou stable. In order to avoid the tiger baby's tail being too big, Han Sui restrained one or two to avoid the tiger baby's rebellion and rebellion in Liangzhou in the future, which also means to stabilize the world."

Dong Mao's words were fair, and everyone could not help but nodded silently to agree, but no one spoke.
