Chapter 107 The Herdsmen Turn into Laborers

But as soon as he finished shouting the slogan, Tsimur said a little disgusted: "Brother Yang just now said that as long as he crossed a small hill, there would be plump green grass, but in fact, we can't cross the hill.

To the east of us is the Uryanha tribe, further east is Liaodong, and to the northeast is Nurkandus. I will take people from these places as laborers. Do you dare to ask for them?"

He squinted his eyes and looked at Antai and the other two, then continued: "They are pretty good. As long as they go west, they can reach Samarkand. It is much more convenient for us to find a laborer."

Zhang Antai also squinted his eyes and said, "Then you can go to your Grand Tutor to discuss. Let's exchange the grasslands with each other. You go to the west to catch laborers, and we go to the east, how about it?"

After spitting disdainfully, he continued to Antai: "You occupy the best pasture, and even the trade of border cities occupies the largest share. If our herdsmen want to come to border cities, they have to bypass you from afar. Now we are talking about our good location? How can you take all the good things in the world?"

Yang Shaofeng smiled and picked up the wine glass and advised: "Old Saihe and the brothers Antai are all relieved, don't be angry for the time being. I have an offer, I wonder if you would like to listen?"

Shuli Timur drank the wine in the cup, then laughed and said, "Brother Yang has always been full of ideas. Do you have any good methods? Just tell me it."

Seeing that Antai and the other three were looking at him with anticipation, Yang Shaofeng smiled and said, "Actually, what I call proposal can be divided into two.

One is that the three Oirat tribes made a way out, and everyone went to the west of the Western Regions with some people. There is no shortage of workers there. As long as you can work together sincerely, it is not difficult to catch dozens or millions of workers back."

Sali Timur glanced at Antai and shouted, "Brother Yang, let's talk about the second method."

Yang Shaofeng nodded and continued to speak.

"The so-called second method is to stop hiring workers. Just like what I and I told you before, there are many young and strong people in the big family, so they can be allowed to work in the border city."

Sali Timur shook his head and said, "Brother Yang knows why I should listen to you directly and tell me the second method?"

Seeing Yang Shaofeng shook his head, Tshar Temur explained: "It's time to start now, and it's time for cattle and sheep to eat grass and gain weight. The war between us and the Oirat people can't continue.

And this is the time for sheep to change wool. Those women are busy shearing wool. They can’t expect them to go to herd horses and herd sheep, right?

By the same token, what if all the young and strong people were sent to the border city to work, what should we do if these cattle and sheep do?”

After being told by Tsai Muer, Yang Shaofeng was immediately numb.

Although the Tatars and Oirat fought, they were far from this level now. There were some young and strong people, but now they don’t feel enough. Why do they feel like they are carrying a stone and then smashing it hard to the face of their own feet?

Yang Shaofeng, who was so distressed, was troubled for a while before saying, "Or else would come in turn? At least as many as you can come, the Tatars and Oirats can gather a lot of people together. If you come slowly, you can always repair the city."

Sali Timur nodded, but turned his eyes to Jack Antai, with a provocative tone: "Can I represent my Grand Tutor, can you represent your Shunning King?"

When he heard the word Shunning King mentioned the three words "Shunning King" by Telimur, Siqin, who was the most active in the Oirati, grabbed Antai in anger and said in a deep voice: "What do you want to say?"

Salitemur sneered and said, "We will go back each other. I will persuade my Grand Master. You will persuade your Khan. We will punish the white horses in the city and swore the arrows to maintain the current situation from now until this time next year. No one is allowed to cause trouble. Let their tribes send more young and strong people to work in the city.

You can rest assured that I will try my best to persuade my Grand Master to give a way for your young and strong people so that they can come to work with peace of mind. Even if they go back, we will not make any trouble, otherwise we will be punished by the Heaven of Eternity. How about it?”

Siqin looked at Yang Shaofeng and said in a deep voice: "I can't believe it just by saying it. In addition to extermination of the white horse and the arrows, I also want Yang Tiju to be a guarantee. If the Tatars break the contract, Yang Tiju will send troops with us to attack, what?"

Yang Shaofeng was considering the pros and cons of it, and heard Talitemur shouting: "Brother Yang promised him! My grand master is a god-like figure, and he will not regret what he said! If I could persuade my grand master to agree to this matter and the grand master later repent, he would ask me to pierce the heart of thousands of arrows and die under the city of the border city!"

Seeing that Sali Timur even said such words, Yang Shaofeng had no choice but to say helplessly: "Okay, Yang is willing to be this guarantor. If the Tatars repent, I, the Ming Dynasty, will send troops to attack the Oirat, what about?"

Siqin said: "Okay, I can trust Yang Tiju! I will swear as a vow now. After the matter is completed, I will swear as a vow in the border city!"

But Sali Timur said, "What if you regret it?"

Tumenjigala couldn't help but shout, "Then let Yang Tiju and you send troops to attack us!"

Seeing that the most troublesome labor problem was solved, Yang Shaofeng breathed a sigh of relief. Is it important that Alutai regrets or not? Does Zhu Laosi still need a reason to criticize him? As long as Zhu Laosi is willing, it is a reason to think that Alutai's breathing pollutes the air...

...

Alutai frowned and pondered, while Sali Timur stood respectfully in front of Alutai, and there was no way he was angry at Antai.

After thinking for a while, Alutai said, "Do you think it's feasible?"

Salitemur bowed and said, "It's feasible. Although Yang Shaofeng is a little crazy, he will definitely do what he says. Moreover, his relationship with the Emperor of Ming Dynasty is obviously not ordinary. Since he is willing to be the guarantor, the Oirats will definitely not have the courage to repent."

Alutai turned his attention to the heads of several other small tribes. It was obvious that after being tortured by Yang Shaofeng's labor policy, the Tatar tribe and the Oirat tribe were severely damaged, but there were more small tribes that defected to both.

After the number of people became more and more popular, Alutai no longer spoke as usual, but instead considered the idea of ​​these little-headed people only on the surface.

The head of the Bayar tribe bowed and said, "If the Grand Tutor agrees, then we are willing to agree."

Seeing that the other little heads and Yan nodded one after another, Alutai nodded as well. After a long time, he spoke: "Where is the Urianha tribe?"

Salitemur said: "Urianha is Urianha. Although we are very close to us, we are not a family. Moreover, Yang Shaofeng has never proposed to take them to make a fortune together. Why should we consider it for them? What's more, it is not in our interests to increase the strength of the three guards of Urianha."

Arutai said with a hush, "Then don't care about them. Go back to the border city and see what the Oirati people are.

If they agree to do this, then let someone take a break. If they don’t agree, then we will fight until they agree. At that time, the person named Yang can give us some money to the Oirats!"

The same conversation also took place in the Mahamu Ministry. In order to facilitate discussion, Taiping and Tuboluo also came to Mahamu's tent.

After listening to the story of Antai and the other three, Taiping and Tuboluo turned their attention to Mahamu.

Unlike the Arutai tribe, the Ola tribe has been divided into three parts after Mengke Timur's three sons, Mahamu, Taiping and Tuboluo, among which Mahamu tribe has the strongest strength.

This is clearly here now.

To agree to the Tatars' proposal, the benefits outweigh the disadvantages for the three Oirat tribes. Not only can we get a chance to breathe, but we can also gain some benefits by exporting labor to border cities, so that the strength of the Oirat will be further enhanced.

The only question is whether the Tatars will really keep their promises, whether the so-called giving up a way will be really implemented, or just talk, or wait for the laborers of the Oirat tribe to return and intercept and kill halfway?

Seeing that the two brothers were looking at him, Mahamu said without frowning, "What are you doing just looking at me? What do you mean by yourself?"

Taiping said: "Instead of believing in the Ming people's guarantee, I think it's better to believe in Alutai and see what the Ming emperor did. He said that he wanted to enfeoff Daning to the three guards of Urianha, but now? Daning is still in the hands of the Ming people, and Urianha has to move closer to Alutai."

But Tu Boluo said: "What is the difference between believing in Alutai's oath and believing in the lies of jackals? Aren't the Han people the most important oath? If the Yang surnamed goes back on his word, what face will he have to stay on the grassland?"

Taiping shouted, "Do you have to wait until you suffer a loss before regretting it?"

Mahamu waved his hand, stopped the two younger brothers who were about to quarrel, and pondered: "Then the situation is that Taiping does not agree with this oath, and Tuboluo agrees, right?"

Seeing the two nodded, Mahamu continued: "In the past, Arutai dared to attack us because we were not as strong as him, and Mingguo supported him behind his back.

But the situation is different now. What the Ming Dynasty needs was laborers and people to build a city. If Alutai dared to cause trouble in this, then he would offend not only our Weitra tribe, but even the Ming people would offend.

More importantly, through these transactions with Ming people, our strength has been much stronger than before. In addition, it is the season of opening, so Alutai may not be willing to regret it easily.
