Xianhai Lake is a large inland saltwater lake with an average water depth of tens of meters and a water area of ​​hundreds of kilometers. It has a complete ecology and is rich in yellow fish.

Nomads don't like farming, and they usually don't go fishing. Xianhai Lake is extremely rich in aquatic resources, but in this era, it only supports countless birds.

Because I learned from Suo Lang that there is a bird island where birds gather in Xianhai Lake, even if I can't find any gu in this trip to Xianhai Lake, I think I can get some raptors back.

Green water and blue waves, looking at the endless water, blue sky and white clouds plus the water extending to the horizon, the lake is as empty as the sea.

The terrain around Xianhai Lake is flat and the spreading grasslands make the scenery near Qinghai Lake so comfortable and refreshing.

The sprawling pastures are indispensable for grazing cattle and sheep. Occasionally, by the Xianhai Lake, the peace of the past is broken by the arrival of wild beasts and horses.

Tigers and wolves clear the way, and the cavalry gallops forward.

The herdsmen galloped on their horses. They tried their best to control the cattle and sheep that were in panic due to the appearance of the herd. The herdsmen barked miserably. When they saw the flags of the Han army flying, the nearby herdsmen shouted and called their companions to stay away quickly.

Nowadays, the Qiang people have not had large-scale wars with the Han people. According to the inheritance passed down from generation to generation by the Qiang people, even if the Han army enters the plateau at this time, they generally will not massacre and plunder the herdsmen.

The Han people abide by the rules, but there is a difference between the army and the bandits. The herdsmen were panicked, but they were not panicked.

Compared with the Han army, these herdsmen who were protected by the powerful families were actually more afraid of the uprising army that had caused a lot of noise before.

Moreover, the chiefs of various ministries had also spread the news the day before yesterday that the king of the Han Dynasty who herded wild beasts might appear in the Xianhai Lake area. The chiefs had reached a consensus with the Han Dynasty king that they would not invade each other.

"Haha, such fertile land may be abandoned. A little fanning by my lord can ensure the stability of Liangzhou for several years. It is really a tribute to the title of marquis." Looking at the lake in the distance, Jia Xu pointed to some unmaintained fields in the flat land and said to Liu

Cang was full of praise.

After the Qiang uprising, the Qiang tribe dispersed a large number of their own slaves, herdsmen, serfs, Han people, Qiang people, Hu people, slaves from various countries in the Western Regions, and even Kushan people.

As for whether these slaves were released or buried, the details are unknown.

Nowadays, a lot of cultivated land in the Qiang land lacks maintenance. After pacifying the rebel army, the Qiang people will probably invade the surrounding areas and hunt slaves in the past two years.

However, things often have two sides, and there is really no shortage of flexible-minded people in the Han region.

For example, the caravans of the Zhen family and the He family encountered in Haranta. When the Qiang rebel army first started to cause trouble, they had already increased the amount of food and daily necessities transported here.

Grain is exchanged for cattle and horses. If there is any shortage of daily necessities, I will sell it to you. You can just say whether you want it or not.

The Qiang region is the closest to the Han region and has the most frequent trade with the Han region. There are definitely more caravans traveling here than just the Zhen family and the He family.

Nowadays, most of the merchants in Han Dynasty are still "no business, no business" merchants, who work hard to make money, but they also have the necessary integrity.

If the Qiang people cannot find a supplier to replace Han merchants in a short period of time, they will not invade Han easily.

And if they need to increase their population and restore various types of output, they will have to capture slaves. The countries in the Western Regions will probably be a little more chaotic.

Once the Qiang people have obtained food, they can restore the livestock damaged by the war to a certain extent. The Qiang people can rest and recuperate, and merchants can make money, so the number of cattle and horses in the Han region should also be able to increase to a certain extent.

Everyone lives a happy and stable life. Speaking of which, uprisings are really good if they occasionally cause trouble.

"Haha, I think in a few years the Qiang people will become more popular, and the number of war-loving people will double." Jia Xu praised, and the generals around him were also very proud. Liu Cang laughed, and there seemed to be Qiang people approaching Liu Cang in the distance.

.

"One thing is going down, the other is going up, it's better to be shut down by them every year." Jia Xu said with a smile, and frowned as he looked at the group of galloping horses in the distance.

Will the Qiang people become more war-loving in the next few years?

Obviously, after all, it would be a pity that the land that had been cultivated earlier would be abandoned. I think before the slaves are in place, the tribal nobles will encourage some tribesmen to farm.

For the Qiang people who like the sky high and the sea wide, and letting their horses sing loudly, let them farm? Haha, they are probably more willing to go to war.

After chatting and joking, a dozen Qiang people on horseback approached Liu Cang and others. The weather here in Xianhai has turned cold. An old man in leather clothes and felt hat was in front of him.

His gaze made the Land Rover group come closer to Liu Cang.

"Rigu, from the Shaodang tribe, pays homage to His Royal Highness King Dongping." The old man was guarded by several young men. He made a series of ceremonial gestures with his hands and paid homage to Liu Cang.

"What are you doing here?" Jia Xu asked from beside Liu Cang.

"To pay homage to the majesty of the king, I brought the friendship of the Shaodang tribe to offer a gift to the king." The old man took the tray handed to him, held it in both hands, and raised it to Pan Feng who stood up to greet him.

There are some colorful stones, gems, or gravels, which are quite large and very beautiful. And beside the old man named Rigu, there are two people each holding a colorful peacock.

"Are you the leader of a nearby tribe?" Liu Cang looked at the peacocks. The medium-sized poultry was positioned as a medium-sized poultry, which made Liu Cang speechless. It was the same style as a fighting chicken. Raise some enough to give the fighting chickens a new vest.

When Liu Cang asked, the old man and a group of Qiang people showed some uneasiness and embarrassment on their faces. It was obvious that Rigugu was not a clan leader, and was probably sent to Liu Cang's side to pay tribute at the risk of death, in order to test Liu Cang's attitude.

The Shaodang Qiang are a tribal group, and Rigu's tribe is probably just a tribe that settled in this lakeside area. Liu Cang had no intention of embarrassing them, and when Roxana, who was wrapped in gorgeous fur next to Liu Cang, looked at the peacock,

His eyes flickered, as if he was recalling memories.

"I will not harass you. If you don't bother me again, please step aside." Liu Cang waved his hand before anyone could answer.

Liu Cang's soldiers stepped forward to accept the gems and peacocks. The other party praised them in a standardized manner, but Liu Cang was impatient and left in a panic.

During this period, the Qiang people suffered a lot of disasters from Liu Cang. At least the Qiang people suffered a lot from Liu Cang. However, the Qiang people were still willing to make peace with Liu Cang. If Liu Cang led thousands of people to the Qiang territory,

It is not practical to coerce the Qiang people.

The key point is probably that when a scoundrel meets a scoundrel, Liu Cang will not attack the major tribes, and the major tribes are not willing to bite Liu Cang.

In particular, the Shaodang Qiang were the absolute main force in quelling the Qiang uprising. Their strength was greatly reduced, internal instability was present, and many Qiang people were eyeing the territory occupied by the Shaodang Qiang.

Due to the coincidence of fate, there was a strange harmony between Liu Cang and the Qiang people at this time.

Liu Cang and others don't look like an army of Han people, but more like a bandit roaming the Qiang land. Shaodang Qiang can't spare any effort to fight him for the time being, and Liu Cang also tries his best to restrain himself and accept gifts when he should.

, should be friendly and kind.

Hello, hello, everyone, we are just here to catch a bird.
