Although over the years, countless Hu people have died directly or indirectly in the hands of Feng Duhu.

Not to mention how many barbarians became laborers.

But one thing is undeniable.

There are more Hu people, because of Feng Duhu's various measures, they have ended their life of living by the water, with no clothes on, and no security.

Divide pastures, raise cattle and sheep, exchange wool for food and other necessities, and even work in various workshops to ensure a stable life for the family...

When the Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty was marching south in the past, many barbarians lost their lives in the war.

But now the Nanzhong Yi people call the prime minister Grandpa.

If the current trend continues, Feng Duhu may also be called Grandpa Feng by the barbarians in the grassland in the future.

As for whether the name of Grandpa Feng will be passed down for thousands of years like Grandpa Zhuge, no one can say for sure.

But it is foreseeable that in the final years of the Han Dynasty, as long as it involves people and things on the grassland, Grandpa Feng will definitely be a figure that cannot be bypassed.

Grandpa Feng...ah, it's not considered worthy now, he should be called Feng Duhu.

Feng Duhu inspected the Northland and came to Jiuyuan from Qinzhidao, focusing on Wuyuan County.

Also give instructions:

The forests in Henan and Yinshan have been regarded as frontier fortresses since ancient times, and have the same status as pass fortresses.

Now, if we want to cut down trees to burn charcoal, we must adhere to the principle of cutting down one tree to plant two.

After giving the instructions, Feng Duhu cordially met with the local people and asked about the difficulties they encountered in their lives.

What Feng Duhu was most concerned about was the learning environment of the children in border schools.

He personally came to the school, inspected the environment of the border school, and encouraged the children to study hard and make progress every day.

As one of the most important figures in the court, Feng Duhu's trip has a lot of political meaning behind it.

Feng Duhu came to Jiuyuan this time, ostensibly to inspect the North, but his main purpose was to endorse Wuyuan Ironworks.

After staying in Jiuyuan for more than a month, the weather in the north has started to get cooler.

Taking advantage of the crisp autumn weather, Feng Duhu left Jiuyuan and turned east, towards Pingcheng.

In Quecheng outside Pingcheng, the last batch of barbarians from the grasslands were packing their goods and preparing to return to their tribes before it snowed in the north.

Feng Duhu, who came from Jiuyuan, took the same road he took to attack Bingzhou.

It's just that the Baishan Mountain Road, which was blocked by the Xiegui Ni Sect in the past, has now become a commercial road connecting the grasslands.

The more people coming and going, the more lively it will be.

But sometimes too much excitement may not be a good thing.

On a certain main mountain road, two tribes that were going back and forth met each other, and for some unknown reason, a dispute suddenly broke out.

"Dou Huiqi, what do you mean? It's such a wide road, and all your cars and horses are blocked, and you can't let people go?"

But when they saw the tribe returning from Pingcheng and preparing to return to the grassland, someone yelled: "Haha!"

"I'm sorry, Tuoba Desert Khan, my servant didn't tie the goods securely, and they fell apart when we got here. Now they are tying them up again."

"How about you turn around and go another way?"

There is more than one trail to Baishan Mountain, but if you get halfway there, turning around and changing the trail again will waste at least a day.

The leader of the blocked tribe was a tall young Hu man with a rather handsome face.

At least among the slovenly prairie barbarians, it is a rare appearance.

But he saw that all the clansmen behind him had angry faces.

On the contrary, although the young man known as Tuoba Desert Khan has a gloomy look, he can still keep his composure:

"Dou Huiqi, your servants made an oversight. They should be punished and warned to make up for their mistakes as soon as possible, instead of causing the road to be blocked and making it impossible for people to walk because of their oversight."

"Our two tribes have fought together against the enemy. In view of our past friendship, can you ask your servants to move the goods blocking the road so that we can pass first?"

It's just okay that he didn't say this. As soon as he said this, Dou Huiti immediately felt as if he had heard a big joke and said sarcastically:

"Love? Yo, yo, so you know what love is? Who did the master of your family marry? As the son of the master of your family, don't you know what to call me when you meet me?"

As soon as these words came out, Tuoba desert sweat choked.

His face twitched and he looked extremely ugly.

"Dou Huiqi, don't bully others too much!"

The clansmen behind Tuoba Desert Khan almost drew their swords when they saw the young clan leader embarrassed.

Dou Huiqi was not afraid, he just sneered:

"It's you who talk about friendship, but it's you who don't want to talk about seniority. What's the matter? Are you still thinking of taking action now?"

"Come on, let's see if you have the courage to use the knife. I will stand here today and let you chop!"

Tuoba Desert Khan stretched out his hand to stop the tribesmen who were about to rush out, and shouted:

"Don't move!"

Although the Han people did not set up a sentry tower in this place, everyone who came here assumed that the nearby area was the territory of the Han people.

In the territory of the Han people, you must abide by the rules of the Han people.

Unless you don't plan to trade goods here.

Unless you think you can defeat the Han's elite cavalry.

Otherwise, if your side really wants to use weapons first, then you will never want to come to Pingcheng again in this life.

Moreover, when the Han cavalry is coming, run as far as possible.

Seeing that Tuoba Desert Khan was not fooled, Dou Huiti looked a little surprised.

If the guess is correct, it must be the first time for the other party to come here. I didn't expect that he knew the rules here so well.

But Tuoba Desert Khan took a deep breath and slowed down his tone:

"Uncle, for the sake of my mother, can you let us pass here as soon as possible?"

Seeing that winter is approaching, Pingcheng's market may be closed at any time.

Even if it is not closed, if it arrives one day late, there will be one less item that can be traded.

The most important thing is that there are a lot of clan members behind him.

If he shows weakness at this time, how can he explain to the adults?

How to convince others in the clan in the future?

Therefore, Tuoba Desert Khan naturally did not want to change roads.

But it was Dou Huiti's younger sister that my lord married.

Therefore, no matter how unwilling Tuoba Desert Khan was, Dou Huiti was still his uncle in terms of seniority.

Although your Majesty and Dou Huiti are at odds with each other, your Majesty has a life-long friendship with Dou Huiti's lord Dou Bin.

Otherwise, how could Dou Bin marry his daughter to an adult?

When the people on Dou Huiti's side heard Tuoba Desert Khan calling him uncle, they burst into laughter on the spot.

Seeing that Dou Huiti still had no intention of letting anyone move the goods, Tuoba Desert Khan was about to speak when suddenly a group of people came up from behind with a look of shock on their faces:

"My eldest son, a group of elite cavalry has come from behind. They are extremely elite. They seem to be the Han army..."

"What?"

How could the Han army come from the north?

And why did you come here at this time?

While he was hesitating, he saw that there was already a commotion behind him.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way!"

Before Tuoba Desert Khan could figure out what was going on behind him, several elite cavalrymen of the Han army had already forced their way through the crowd and rushed over.

Glancing at the scene that was obviously the center of the accident, the leading Han army general rode on his horse and asked condescendingly:

"What happened? Why are you stuck and can't leave?"

Not only was his attitude condescending, but his tone was also a bit arrogant and domineering.

But Dou Huiti, who originally wanted to make things difficult for Tuoba Desert Khan, changed his expression drastically.

Before Tuoba Desert Khan could speak, he had already stepped forward and said with a slight nod and bow:

"Sir, this is the negligence of our slaves. They did not tie up the goods exchanged from Pingcheng, and they were scattered on the way. We are cleaning them up. They will be fine soon, they will be fine soon!"

The Han general sat on his horse and took a look, and found that some goods had indeed fallen to the ground.

Then he said impatiently:

"Clear the road quickly!"
