Destiny Only Han
Chapter 401 Liu Ying: Be good, eat candy...
"White clouds float in the blue sky, and horses run under the clouds..."
Liu Ying pulled his tone-deaf voice inherited from Lu Zhi, and sang loudly on horseback, making Liu Bang beside him frown, and his big hand holding the whip was about to move.
If you want Naigong to die, just say so, there is no need to torture him like this!
Liu Ying didn't care about his thoughts, she just kept memorizing songs happily.
One day before Liu Jing returned from the Huns, he brought the results of his talks with Modu.
Liu Ying asked a lot of prices, and Mao Dun accepted them all...
Of course, the content of the treaty is not excessive.
For example, instead of listening to Liu Bang's words and entangled in the ownership of the three counties in the Northland, they just marked the border around Yanmen County, which will be determined strictly according to the map drawn by Qin State during his reign.
This point can naturally be accepted by Mouton.
Anyway, he has basically been driven out of Yanmen County, and the mountains and hills here are mainly not suitable for the Huns to graze here.
The second is that the Xiongnu terminated their vassal relationship with the Donghu, Wuhuan, Xianbei and other tribes, and they must not interfere with their alliance with the Han Dynasty and the establishment of diplomatic relations.
Mao Dun also agreed to this point.
In his opinion, these so-called vassals and other rhetoric are all false. The Huns collected tribute from Wuhuan Xianbei, so they dare not give it?
Besides, it is also a good thing that the Donghu people and the Han Dynasty are fighting fiercely.
Donghu, sheep are also; Xiongnu, wolves are also!
The fatter the sheep, the happier the wolf!
The third is to open a bargaining market in Shangjun, where cattle and sheep leather are exchanged for materials needed on the grassland every autumn.
Such as cloth and food.
Mouton was most satisfied with this one.
The reason is very simple. The Huns' material needs for the Central Plains people exist objectively. After all, clothes made of cloth are much easier to wear than clothes made of sheepskin!
The most important thing is that if you can trade with Han officials, you don't have to be deceived by the original smugglers!
A piece of cloth, a cow!
black!
As for some other small details, Mao Dun is unwilling to entangle any more. After all, for him, returning to the royal court as soon as possible and curing his illness are the most important things at present.
Of course, this is also an excellent thing for Liu Ying.
First of all, Mao Dun is illiterate, he can't understand the map of Qin State processed by Liu Ying.
For example, on that map, the northernmost point of Yanmen County is not the Zhao Great Wall north of Pingcheng, but the Qin Great Wall north of Huade County that only exists on the map!
The edge of the Great Wall is almost approaching the Xilin Gol League!
It completely covers the hinterland of the grassland, and it is only about two or three hundred kilometers away from the Sino-Mongolian border of later generations...
As for the Xiongnu's abandonment of the vassal relationship with the various ministries of the Eastern Hu, Liu Ying's idea is actually very simple.
Donghu people have a duality of cunning and simplicity. The harsh living environment forces them to be cunning, but for those who are kind to them, they are simple and lovely.
Liu Ying gave them a hand and made them exempt from the large amount of tribute promised to the Huns every year. They were naturally grateful to Liu Ying.
Although Liu Ying knew very well that the truth was only within the range of the cannon, Mouton would never keep his promise and give up collecting tribute from the Donghu people.
So, there is a united front against the Huns!
After all, Donghu people also have a temper!
A few years later, the Huns called themselves Xianbei. In order to survive, the Huns had given up the glory of their ancestors, so that the name of the Huns disappeared completely...
As for the so-called free trade, fair trade?
Well, let’s take a look at the Xiongnu’s special edition products!
Thus, the first meeting of the heads of Han and Hungary took place in a peaceful and warm atmosphere.
Coming from south to north is a mixed army formation with the battle flag of the Han army flying.
On both sides of the [-]-strong infantry square, there is an assault army composed of hundreds of chariots and tens of thousands of cavalry.
The army is neat and tidy, with a murderous look, the drums are rumbling, and the flags are fluttering.
In the north, in order not to show weakness, the Huns also dispatched all the Huns.
The white horse lives in the west, the green horse lives in the east, the black horse lives in the north, and the red horse lives in the south...
In an instant, Liu Ying became eager to move.
He remembered that there were still two big boxes of Sky-Changing Monkey in his carriage!
But after thinking about it, he still thought it was okay.
If the horses are frightened and run around, he can't catch them!
But if you put rum in a glass bottle, the Huns will rush to send it to him!
A bottle of rum can be exchanged for at least one good horse. The cost is only a dozen sugar canes and a large handful of sand. A good horse that can be used for trading needs to be raised for at least two years, and then it can be used for another 20 years. !
So, I look down on those robbers the most, they have no technical content at all...
..............................
On the grassland by the coast of Daihai, the army formations of the Han and Hungarian sides stopped in the distance, and only the leaders who participated in the alliance were slowly approaching.
On the side of the Xiongnu, it is natural that Maodun, the left and right big households and the left and right generals and other Huns dignitaries.
Of course, Zuo Guduhou and Youxianwang were absent.
On the Han side, there are dozens of Langzhong cavalry led by Liu Bang, Liu Ying, Xia Houying, and Jin She and Chong Da.
In order not to show timidity in front of the Huns who grew up on horseback, Liu Bang and his party all rode barebacked horses without saddles and stirrups...
As for the shoes, this is the perspective that only the captain can see...
On the wool blanket with intricate patterns, Liu Bang and Mao Dun sat facing each other, but Mao Dun stared blankly at Liu Ying, who was sitting next to Liu Bang with a cute face.
If he guessed correctly, this should be the prince of Han!
For a moment, Mao Dun's heart was filled with killing intent.
At such an age, he was able to roam freely on the grassland, and later even blocked the siege of many Hun warriors!
If he is allowed to grow up, what's the deal?
Mao Dun clenched his fists tightly, but a sharp pain in his chest made him lose all his strength in an instant, and big beads of sweat appeared on his face.
On the opposite side of Maodun, Liu Ying waved her hands behind her back slightly, so Chongda slowly relaxed, but still maintained the posture of being ready to draw a sword at any time.
Foot combat is his forte. As long as the Huns dare to make any changes, he can kill all of them in the blink of an eye!
Liu Bang looked at Mao Dun, who was bent over with a pained expression on his face, turned his head and waved, and talked a few words with a Langzhong cavalry who followed him.
After a while, while the Huns were on full alert, two Langzhong cavalry came running carrying a small portable tea stove.
Liu Bang made tea on his own, and then handed over a cup of steaming tea: "Drink more hot water."
Liu Ying froze for a moment, and forced herself not to laugh out loud.
Mao Dun nodded his thanks, took the tea soup and was about to put it aside, but inadvertently saw the sparkling light in the tea cup, as if reflecting the color of the gorgeous sunset, and smelled it again, and smelled a sweet aroma.
He looked up at Liu Bang who was taking a sip, and couldn't help taking a sip, then frowned, took another sip, and then slowly drank a cup of tea soup one by one.
Liu Bang smiled slightly, and refilled another cup for him casually.
After Maodun, the left and right big households and others looked puzzled. If it was wine, they would understand it. It is normal for men to have good wine and good women, but they cannot understand drinking leaf water...
Liu Ying also looked up at the sky with a speechless expression.
The hundreds of thousands of troops on both sides were at war, and these two guys drank tea happily?
Most importantly, why not his?
Is he worse than others?
After a while, Liu Bang asked with a smile, "How is it? Are you feeling better?"
Mo Dun gave him a strange look: "...it's better."
Liu Bang nodded: "That's good, that's good, when I leave, I'll pack some for you to take away... Well, you can also take some brown sugar, the tea is delicious!"
Mo Dun asked curiously: "Brown sugar? What is that?"
Liu Bang pointed to a paper bag spread out on the small coffee table: "It's very sweet, try it..."
Liu Ying watched as she stretched out her fingers to dip brown sugar into her mouth, and then she suddenly remembered a rumor she had heard.
Sugar is addictive!
Although it was BC at this time, the people of the Shang Dynasty had already mastered the technology of making maltose, and the disease of diabetes was also recorded by the ancient Greeks and ancient Indians.
Of course, diabetes doesn't necessarily have much to do with eating too much sugar.
But that’s not the point. The point is that sugar is highly addictive. As the threshold increases, sugar addicts will increasingly pursue sugar with higher purity.
For example, the Romans were addicted to sugar. In pursuit of sweetness, they even put lead sugar in their drinks!
So if the habit of eating sugar for the Xiongnu nobles is cultivated, can lead sugar be introduced into their daily life?
It is true that lead is poisonous, but it is sweet!
Just as an addict cannot resist that, how can a sugar addict resist that pure sweetness?
With Liu Ying's more humble smile, Mao Dun, who had recovered, began to stand with Liu Bang, swearing to kill the white horse and the white cow.
Although one of the two sides is farming and the other is nomadic, in fact, the nomadic civilization appeared later than the farming civilization, and many customs of the two sides are similar.
A moment later, with a bowl of blood wine down, the Daihai Treaty was formally established.
Although, neither side actually takes the treaty seriously...
..........................................
Guanzhong, Liyang.
A mail truck drove along the straight avenue to the Yueyang Palace at the end of the road, and unloaded a huge package.
This is an urgent delivery from Liu Ying from Mayi City, which contains some valuable collections he got from the Huns, as well as letters and paintings to Lu Zhi.
In Chenglu Hall, Lu Zhi left the cat in his arms, and the first thing he opened was the scroll bound by Huang Lingzi.
The technique of the painting is very realistic and the colors are bright. It is roughly that Liu Ying is riding on a tall white horse with a big red cloak wrapped around her body.
The horseman stood up, Liu Ying turned her head to look at the painter, holding the rein with her left hand, stretched out her right hand, and pointed her index finger to the sky...
On a piece of paper pasted on the scroll, the name of the painting is written.
Liu Ying crossed the Taihang Mountains...
Liu Ying pulled his tone-deaf voice inherited from Lu Zhi, and sang loudly on horseback, making Liu Bang beside him frown, and his big hand holding the whip was about to move.
