Next, the Qiang Kingdom will be in chaos for a while. At the very least, they will not launch a war of revenge until a new emperor is chosen.

This kind of killing, looting, and quick-victory guerrilla tactics are all the style of the Tatars. The evidence left by Han Shu along the way is enough to prove that it was the Tatars who attacked the Qiang Kingdom's imperial capital.

What Qiuqiu didn't know was that after Han Chou left Tang City, Han Lin reorganized his army, divided it into three armies, each with 30,000 soldiers, and quickly occupied several neighboring cities that were originally under the jurisdiction of Tang City.

In just three months, the Han army occupied the entire Tang City and the nine surrounding counties, built defensive facilities, renamed it Hancheng, and established an independent government.

After rebuilding Hancheng, Han Lin followed Han Chou's advice and continued to expand towards the southeast. It took him three months to reach the seaside.

Of course, Han Lin's expansion direction was opposite to that of the Dayong Dynasty, and he occupied the lands of Yan and Xian.

Han Lin: This is not my fault. How could he have the ability to complete all the development plans left by Han Chou? Even his soldiers don't have that ability.

Alas, he couldn't, but he could find someone who could do it to help him. After a few fights, he expanded his territory to three times the size of Tang City and waited for his second son to come and govern it.

Besides, Tang City is surrounded by three countries. Without a large military force, it will be destroyed in minutes. It is best to take action as soon as possible.

Han Chou repeatedly emphasized that building Hancheng requires a huge amount of money, and selling illegal salt can bring huge profits!

He penetrated the coastline, went to the seaside to produce sea salt, opened up sea transportation, and established a trade coastline from Hancheng directly to the coastal cities of Jiangnan.

These were all the tasks left for him by Han Chou, he just completed them ahead of time.

His soldiers were unable to do many delicate jobs, but they were very enthusiastic about making dried salted fish. They dried the caught fish with sea salt, pickled them, and then dried them. Not only could they store them for a long time, but they could also transport them to Pingcheng and exchange them for cattle and sheep from herdsmen.

After the cattle and sheep were brought back and slaughtered, they were made into beef and mutton jerky according to the recipe provided by Qiuqiu through a series of processes. No one disliked it. Of course, this is a story for later.

Han Lin built temples in every city under the jurisdiction of the Han family, enshrining the Dharma image of Yuanchu.

This is the Taoist name that the ancestor personally told the people of Hancheng in their dreams after they had been worshipping the City God for a long time.

However, the ancestor sympathized with the believers. The temples built in the city did not need to be gorgeous, but simple and natural. In the village, if offering sacrifices were made, it was only necessary to carve a temple half a person's height, without wasting people's time and money.

Han Lin deeply felt that the ancestor's timely appearance not only saved the Han family, but also basically preserved the Han family army. He was very grateful.

In order to gain more faith for the ancestor, every time the territory was expanded, the ancestor's deeds would be publicized so that the ancestor would have more believers and offer incense to him.

Later, Qiuqiu received a steady stream of incense offerings, and he made some calculations, feeling very emotional. When the Han family was once again facing the crisis of genocide, his spiritual consciousness projected down to the mortal world and helped the Han family once again.

Han Lin was a very honest person. Later, after Han Hen faked his death and returned, he assisted Han Lin in expanding the coastal territory. He brought tens of thousands of logistics soldiers to build ten large salt fields.

There is no other way. To rebuild the city on the ruins, money is needed everywhere. Nothing is more profitable than selling illegal salt. The current 150,000-strong army really needs to be supported by the Han family.

Since it is difficult to open up channels for selling private salt in inland areas, dried beef and mutton are made into cured meat.

Selling illegal salt was easy to be exposed, so they sold salted fish and salted meat. Before the factory was put into operation, this transaction lasted for two years in order to feed the Han family army.

With the speed talisman, Han Chou took one day and two nights to return to the imperial mausoleum. Along the way, he was planning how to make money. He had a copy of the military roster in his hand. There were 150,000 remnant soldiers, and 150,000 families behind them. The average number of people in these families was six, so there were 900,000 people who needed to be transported to Hancheng.

Even with the help of the ancestors, it is very difficult to complete it in the short term.

Qiuqiu reminded: "You just need to filter out those who are only children and married to military personnel.

Some parents who had other sons were not mentally prepared for their sons to die on the battlefield when they sent them to join the army.

There are very few only children sent to the battlefield!

I looked and saw that quite a few of them were getting married, reaching over 80,000, which is more than half. You just need to bring 80,000 small families back to Hancheng.

Han Chou was a little confused. Could it be so easy to transfer more than 80,000 poor people, especially those scattered across the country? It was absolutely impossible without alerting the imperial court!

Hancheng is in a precarious situation, and at this time, it must not attract the attention of the Dayong court.

Qiuqiu reminded: "According to the mentality of ancient people, it is difficult to leave their hometown. They will only leave with you when they really can't survive." This excludes most family members.

“The living space for the poor is too small. When they are forced into a corner, they can be conquered by simply giving them a way to survive.

The Yong Dynasty court did nothing. In the slave market, an adult man could only be sold for five taels of silver, while women and children could not even be sold for two taels.

Han Chou already had something in mind. He was now going to return to the imperial mausoleum to start his next plan.

When they arrived at the imperial mausoleum, it was exactly midnight. With Qiuqiu's help, Han Chou hid and secretly returned to his bedroom.

Just as he put the puppet away and was about to store it in the storage talisman, Qiuqiu suddenly sent him a message: "Three kinds of poison have been injected into the puppet's body. When you wake up tomorrow, ask your doctor to check it."

Han Chou: "I can't 'die' yet. I need to send the Han family's soldiers and their families to Hancheng. Then I will tell the public that the three toxins just happen to overcome each other, and I can barely maintain a balance in my body. I just can't use my internal energy, so I can barely live for another year."

Within one year, all the military dependents can be transferred, and Han Chou should be "dead" in Dayong!

Qiuqiu: "It's up to you." Pretending to be weak and pitiful is sometimes very useful.

Han Chou woke up again after ten days, which made Han Xue very happy, and Gu Zhao also showed a long-lost smile on his face.

Gu Zhao's mother's family is not prominent, and the queen was forced to commit suicide. Now he can only hold on to his wife's family.

He probably already knew that his wife's family had suffered heavy losses.

The 200,000-strong army burned in Yangcheng, Han Lin died in the sea of ​​fire, and Han Hen failed to break out and died after being hit by several arrows.

Pingcheng, guarded by Han Shu, received a call for help and support, and he led an army of 100,000 to confront the Tatar army head-on and won a narrow victory.

However, the Han army had only 40,000 soldiers left. The reason for the heavy casualties was that the soldiers were extremely hungry, and 30% of them starved to death.

When the emperor saw the urgent message of 800 miles, he was so angry that he vomited blood and fainted in the court.

The next day, near noon, Han Chou woke up after a good sleep. The servant beside him informed Gu Zhao, who arrived soon.

The first time Han Chou looked at Gu Zhao seriously, he found that he looked a bit like Ku Ku. Han Chou speculated that Han Ku Ku's biological father was the reincarnation of Gu Zhao.

In this era where Heaven, Earth, Emperor, Parents and Teachers are respected, even though he is Gu Zhao's second uncle, he still has to kneel and pay his respects.

Gu Zhao was very respectful and quickly stopped Han Chou from getting out of bed and asked the doctor behind him to take his pulse.
