It is necessary to wear two pieces of clothing in the Imperial City. On the vast grassland, the north wind is blowing and the air is bitingly cold.
At this time, outside the defense line of the Datong Great Wall, fifty miles back, the beggar army was packing up their tents.
This group of beggars is the beggars coalition headed by Heerda Subu.
They did not get any substantial benefits in this year's attack on Dakang.
However, because seven or eight tribes loyal to Shiwei were wiped out one after another, not only did their strength not decline, but they were greatly improved. Their population, livestock and even territory all increased significantly.
¡°In just three to five years, these populations and territories will be absorbed by the tribes, and in a decade or so, their size will be two or three times larger than what they are now.
By then, each of their tribes will be a large tribe with an army of 30,000 to 50,000 people. Even if the Shiwei people attack, they will not be afraid.
So in the Chinese army tent, a group of people were eating fat sheep and drinking small wine, and the atmosphere was very lively.
The bald patriarch pulled Jin Chenbai to touch the bowl and laughed loudly: "King Jin, I am really grateful to you this time! Without you, we would not have been able to achieve such a good harvest! We have never seen such a thing in thirty or fifty years. It¡¯s a big show that we can¡¯t see!¡±
"Isn't it?"
The leader of the Golden Earring clan gnawed on the greasy mutton chops and said proudly: "Shiwei was really miserable this time! At least four to five million people died, right? In the end, not even a single one was caught!"
"Who said that? Didn't they get a Jinzhou City?" the bearded patriarch laughed.
"What are you going to do with a Jinzhou City with its walls destroyed and a Jinzhou City with its interior burned to pieces?" the older clan leader said disdainfully, "If you want to repair Jinzhou City, at least one or two hundred thousand people will have to work. It takes a year and requires a lot of money. Are the Shiwei people willing to do this kind of business?"
"That's not all!" the leader of the Golden Earring clan added, "They also looted the merchants, which offended the merchants to death I heard that when Jinzhou City finally retreated, more than half of the merchants were already crazy. They rushed to Jinzhou City and retreated?"
"Well, almost." Jin Chenbai said with a smile, "The remaining half will have to leave next spring. Even people from other races, including our Qiyan tribe, will not stay in that place anymore!" And lack of trust is the biggest failure in doing business!"
"But they didn't lose at all!" the bald patriarch said with envy: "It is said that they plundered at least 100 million taels of silver worth of money and goods! This time the people of Shiwei were full! His lackeys also almost plundered To the bone!¡±
"Of course it will be a huge profit in the short term, but I dare to conclude that this is also the beginning of Shi Wei's decline!" Jin Chenbai said astonishingly.
"oh!?"
A group of people were surprised.
They would not suspect Jin Chenbai of grandstanding.
They have known about Jin Chenbai¡¯s plan since last year. After a year of development, they sincerely admire this young leader.
This is how it is on the grassland.
"You have strength, vision, and can make everyone rich. That is the style of a leader."
"In this world, if you don't rely on external exchanges to actively develop yourself and remain stubborn, sooner or later you will completely degenerate and be unable to keep up with the times." Jin Chenbai said, "What did Shiwei rely on to be where he is today? Maybe? You all will say it's their force!
But think about it, when Shiwei¡¯s military power was at its peak, were they as wealthy and wealthy as they are today? Like today, has it developed into a super-large tribe with more than two million people in its headquarters?
No! Although they are fighting, killing and robbing everywhere, the population is actually constantly decreasing! Even if their vassal tribes are added, there are only two million people.
But after they stabilized and started to build cities, and from the time they started to exchange supplies with Dakang, they developed greatly. In just a few decades, their population more than doubled.
If they continue like this, the number of Shiwei people will be able to increase by another half million in thirty years at most, and in another twenty years, the number of Shiwei people will be able to increase by one million! !
Think about it, how terrifying the Shiwei people must be with a population of five million, or even six or seven million. By that time, they will have enough manpower to fight everywhere and conquer the places they see! "
After a pause, Jin Chenbai said: "If we don't have all kinds of food and materials provided by Dakang, thenSo what if they come?
"The Qiyan Plateau is so big. If we dodge them for a month or two, they will naturally not be able to bear it and go back. We can still return to our own territory for development."
This place is still close to the territory of Dakang. We can develop and expand ourselves by doing business with Dakang. Where can we find such a good business partner?
Besides, everyone still has an idea in mind.
We all followed you to Mobei. If you have any evil intentions and plot against us, what should we do?
If you are not familiar with the place, you may not know what will happen!
It¡¯s very ridiculous to talk about benevolence, morality and credibility on the grassland!
It¡¯s still only the strength in your own hands that matters!
