Hearing Yang Weishang's strange tone, Mo Zizai felt that things might be different from what he imagined, so he did not speak and quietly waited for Yang Weishang's answer.

"Those barbarians live in Tianzhu Mountain and rarely go down the mountain, nor have any intersections with the grassland tribes. So before they appear, let alone the Central Plains, even the grassland people rarely know them."

"Until the end of the Dagan period, the cold disaster swept across the world, and Tianzhu Mountain was also greatly affected, so the barbarians on Tianzhu Mountain came out in full swing."

Speaking of this, Yang Weishang said in a heavy tone: "Hundreds of thousands of barbarians are like locusts. Wherever they go, no matter people or animals, they are all reduced to food."

"In just over a decade, they have completely occupied the grassland. As for the millions of nomadic peoples who originally lived on the grassland, there are basically no traces."

"Millions of people, people and animals eat?"

Mo Zizai's face became very ugly. He knew about the uncivilized barbarians and even cannibalism, but he originally thought that this was a prejudice or misunderstanding of the barbarians in the Central Plains. After all, all the firearms in the Great Zhou were created. Even if the grassland barbarians adjacent to the Great Zhou were behind, it would not be like this.

Now it seems that he was wrong. Those barbarians who came out of Tianzhu Mountain should essentially be a group of savages.

He took a deep breath, suppressed the disgust in his heart, and asked in a deep voice: "What's next?"

"With the good ones, I want to have better ones, and those barbarians are no exception. After they occupied the grassland, they turned their attention to the Great Zhou Dynasty, which I had just founded."

Yang Weishang's tone was a little quiet and continued to tell: "But they also knew the power of our Great Zhou, so they joined forces with hundreds of barbarian tribes to elect a barbarian royal, and then they also drew 200,000 young and strong men to form an army to attack our Great Zhou together."

"Headily confrontation, the barbarians have 200,000 against my big week one million."

"The result was that 200,000 barbarian troops were completely wiped out, and the Barbarian Emperor was also killed by Taizu on the spot. The barbarians were dispersed into tribes again, and they would never be united again."

"The price I paid for in the Great Week is that one million troops lost nearly 80% of the battle, and only more than 200,000 people remain."

"A miserable victory."

Hearing this, Mo Zizai was silent for a long time. He fought for 200,000 with one million, but he could actually lose 800,000 people.

You should know that Taizu of the Great Zhou Dynasty is not the god of sorghum River Carriage. The great Zhou Dynasty was defeated with both hands. In addition, the military strength during the founding period was also at its peak. In this way, the more you fight, you can still get 1:4 damage. How strong are these barbarians?

"Thank you, Master Ge, for your explanation, I will take the barbarians to heart."

"It's good if the prince knows it."

Seeing that Mo Zizai obviously listened to it, she was not as stubborn as before, Yang Weishang felt much more relieved, "But the prince doesn't have to worry too much."

"Hundreds of years have passed since then. Not only is the barbarians divided, but even their individual strength is far inferior to those of the past. In addition, my Great Zhou army armor has been upgraded several times. It is basically impossible for them to hit me with 200,000 or 1 million."

"Is the individual strength not as good as that of the past?"

Mo Zizai asked in confusion: "What's the reason?"

"Don't know."

Yang Weishang shook his head and said, "According to records, those barbarians were incredibly talented at that time, and seemed to be born with physical cultivation. As long as they are adults, they can reach the ninth-level body tempering realm. As for the eighth-level essence refining realm and the seventh-level bone-forging realm, there are quite a few, so that battle was so difficult."

"But as time goes by, those barbarians seem to be degenerating. Nowadays, ordinary barbarians have very few ninth-grade body tempering realms, let alone eighth-grade essence refining and seventh-grade bone-building."

“Degenerate?”

Mo Zizai rubbed his eyebrows. If there is any difference between the current barbarians and the past, it is that their residence has changed from Tianzhu Mountain to the grassland. Could it be that there is something wrong with Tianzhu Mountain?

He kept this guess in his heart. If he had time in the future, he could go to Tianzhu Mountain to take a look.

"By the way, Master Ge, are those barbarians still cannibals?"

Hearing Mo Zizai’s question, Yang Weishang hesitated for a moment, and then said tactfully: “Most of them are no longer human.”

"Oh, I understand."

Mo Zizai nodded silently. Most of the people who don’t want to eat people mean that there are still people who can do so. It seems that if you become stronger in the future, it is necessary to go to the grassland to educate them.

Of course, because Mo Zizai's lack of cultural level, the transformation of education is basically equivalent to melting transformation in him.

It is reasonable to teach "transform" the barbarians and solve cannibalism from the root.

"I know this in my mind. Does the elder brother have anything else to say?"

"There are some."

Seeing that Mo Zizai was trying to leave, Yang Weishang asked a very important question, "I wonder how the prince is planning to raise food?"

Mo Zizai must know about the major event that the Ministry of Revenue cannot buy disaster relief food, so he wanted to ask Mo Zizai's opinion.

"Food and grass."

Mo Zizai did not pay much attention to this issue and said lightly: "Just let Qiange Lao raise the grain. I will talk to him about it. I believe in his ability."

When saying this, Mo Zizai put the emphasis on the word "believe". It was obvious that the belief in his mouth was a verb.

Yang Weishang could naturally hear Mo Zizai's implication, and couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "Prince, Qian Min can't decide this matter alone. Even if you... believe him, he can't buy too much food."

"I know, I didn't expect the Ministry of Revenue to buy all the grain."

Mo Zizai nodded slightly and said lightly: "It is enough to buy a part of the Ministry of Revenue. The rest will be filled with kind people."

“…”

Yang Weishang was speechless. Although he didn't know who the kind-hearted person Mo Zizai was talking about, judging from his style of conduct, there must be a new unlucky guy again.

"Forget it, you'll know it in your heart, your lord."

Yang Weishang originally wanted to remind Mo Zizai about food and grass, but he found that Mo Zizai had a thorough understanding of the problem and seemed to have a solution. In this case, he naturally wouldn't have much.

"But the old minister has a reluctant request. I hope that when Yuzhishi suppresses his rebellion in the future, he will bring my son Yanzhang with me."

"Yang Yanzhang?"

Mo Zizai didn't go around the circle and asked directly: "What kind of cultivation is he now?"

"By the prince, my son is in the physical cultivation and the seventh-grade physical training realm."

When Yang Weishang said this, he couldn't help but smile on his face, but in order to avoid Mo Zizai's misunderstanding of Yang Yanzhang's hidden cultivation, he quickly explained: "Actually, he is a disciple of the late emperor, and hiding cultivation is also the meaning of the late emperor."

"The former emperor felt that King Bei'an might not be stable, so he wanted to train Yan Zhang and go back to take over the defense of the North, but he didn't expect this accident to happen."

“…”

Mo Zizai was speechless when he was the turn of these. The cultivation speed of physical cultivation was much slower than that of true qi cultivators. In terms of the difficulty of practicing, it was enough to compare with the Secret Realm of the Realm of the Real Qi warrior.

And Yang Yanzhang seems to be less than thirty, okay, another genius in cultivation.
