Chapter 1467 Knight Leader

Wait for the opportunity.”

The Bodhisattva's vicissitudes of life no longer had the passionate smile he had when facing Qin officials.

He also wanted to dominate the northern part of Mobei, and he also wanted to replace the Xueyantuo Khanate with the Uighur Khanate and become the grassland overlord like the Huns and Turks back then.

Unfortunately, Luo Cheng rose to the Central Plains and bullied the grassland. Shibi, Jie Li, and many heroes fell under Luo Cheng's iron cavalry.

Nishu wanted to resist, but he didn't even have a bubble.

Even though he knows that he is invincible, although his courage is commendable, the Bodhisattva does not want to do such stupid things. He does not want to be the second best person in the mud.

If you can't resist, then obey. Of course, he did not give up resisting, but just buried it in his heart for the time being, lurking patiently, waiting for the opportunity.

In his opinion, if the Uighurs want to become the master of the grassland again, there is only one possibility, that is, the Qin people in the Central Plains are in chaos and have no time to take care of the grassland at that time, and perhaps there is a chance.

But now it seems that the Central Plains are at its peak and they don’t seem to be in chaos.

Then you can only bury your own ideas deeper.

"Let's go, while the weather is good, let's go hunting a few more deer. We have to hold a banquet tonight to entertain the officials who are about to go to our tribe."

"How can we have our territory?" The Bodhisattva's son said angrily.

"You, when will you learn from your brother? He has been in the Central Plains for two years. He has never complained about anything. He just devoted himself to learning the strengths of the Han people in the Central Plains."

The Bodhisattva was proficient in riding and shooting skills. After running around the grassland, he hunted several fat deer, as well as yellow sheep, wild camels, wild ducks, etc.

Back at the Yudu Mountain City camp that was still under construction, the Bodhisattva personally cut off the deer tongue and the hump and roasted delicious food for Wang Juncheng and other officials who were about to go to the sea.

"I didn't expect that the county magistrate had such excellent cooking skills, which is amazing." Wang Juncheng was a fat civil servant. He was in his early fifties and was originally a county magistrate in the Central Plains. This time he was promoted to county magistrate. It was a good thing to be promoted, but when he came to Mobei to be a county magistrate, he was still a little hesitant.

But Wang's order was difficult to disobey, so he had to come with a tough time. Unexpectedly, the journey was going smoothly. There were caravans following him and guards from the palace. He didn't suffer much, but he saw many grassland styles.

It is said that Bodhisattvas are cruel people, but now seeing Bodhisattvas hunting deer and birds for them and roasting them by themselves, looking at his smiling passionate and upright appearance, Lao Wang felt that his previous worries were a little unnecessary.

I hope that in Hanhai County, I will be able to go smoothly in the future. As long as there is no trouble, I will work for three years and then transfer back to the Central Plains, even if it is a smooth transfer, I will be satisfied.

"The men on the grassland all have rough craftsmanship, there is no exquisite food, exquisite tableware, some birds and beasts that are freshly cooked, and there is no exquisite cooking method. It is just a simple roasting. I hope you don't dislike it."

Wang Juncheng tasted it and found it was surprisingly delicious. He originally thought that this kind of roasted roast with a little salt would be very fishy and firewood.

Liu Duwei, who was born as a general, was generous on the surface and was careful on the inside. He kept looking at the Bodhisattva secretly. The more he looked at the Buddha, the more he felt that this guy was not simple.

People who used to be a great knight are now hunting deer and barbecue for them personally. They are definitely a cruel person who can bend and stretch.

"Monkey Duke, we will rely on the Monkey Duke in the future. In Hanhai County, it is your territory."

The Bodhisattva smiled and handed Liu Duwei a piece of roasted wild camel peak, "I dare not say that, Hanhai County is the territory of the court. I am the same as you, just a herdsman official appointed by the court."

"That's different. We are just officials, and the Duke of the County is a prince. You not only have the title of Duke of the County, but also have the territory."

Speaking of territory, an undetectable dissatisfaction flashed in the Bodhisattva's eyes.

I think of him Bodhisattva, who was originally the leader of the Weihe tribe. After joining forces with many other tribes, he formed the Uighur Alliance and became the Uighur Khan. The entire eastern part of the desert was his territory.

But now, the emperor conferred him a county duke and then gave him a fief, but it turned out to be a small grassland and mountainous area, only a hundred miles away.

The emperor granted titles to the leaders of the tribes in Mobei and gave fiefs.

In addition to the leaders of the twelve tribes, there were fiefs of titles, and the leaders of the tribes under each tribe also gave them fiefs. In the name of grace and reward, the emperor also gave the barons of Duke and Bozi to the leaders of all tribes in the name of grace and reward, and also gave the brothers and nephews of the leaders to the leaders, and gave a large number of knight titles.

Each knight has a fiefdom. Although it is not big, it can also enclose a ranch.

This was a good thing, but the problem was that whether it was these knights, those dukes, marquises, or the men, their fiefs were drawn directly from the territory of the original tribes.

Moreover, these fiefs are called fiefs by the marquis, and the knights are called knight leaders. The divisions are intertwined and scattered.

He was the leader of the Uighurs. According to these imperial edicts of the court, what he could really control was his fiefdom, a grassland of about a hundred miles, and other places were all managed by the Hanhai County Office of the imperial court, or the fiefs of other princes and knights.

On the surface, these marquises and knights were all nobles of their Uighurs, but now they are divided into vassals like this, who will still submit to the leader of the Uighurs in the future? Even if the leader of the Uighurs can inherit the title of duke of this county or the title of prefect in the future, he will probably not be able to command other tribesmen.

What's more, this title and fief are not given for free.

Each fiefdom corresponds to a corresponding obligation. The most important obligation is to send your daughter to the Central Plains to choose a marriage and send your son to the Central Plains to serve as a soldier. The children of the great princes may enter the palace to serve as guards, but generally the children of the marquis or knights may have to go to border areas such as Anxi or Linyi to defend the border and fight.

In addition, the knights of these marquises also had to pay tribute to the court, which was equivalent to paying taxes to the emperor.

The court abolished their original titles of Khan, Shijin and others, granted them titles and titles of Duke, Marquis, Bonan, Knight and other knights of the Qin Dynasty, and granted them the titles of the prefect and county magistrate.

Many tribal leaders were very satisfied with the emperor's title, and even some illegitimate children who had not inherited their family business could be awarded titles. Some illegitimate children of some small tribes could also get the title of knight and fiefdom, which made them very satisfied.

But the Bodhisattva was very angry with this system, but he was powerless to do anything about it. Now when he heard that Liu Duwei and the others talked about this, he could only smile on his face.

"Mr. Duke, when I arrive in Hanhai, I will ask Duke to mobilize personnel as soon as possible and quickly build Hanhai City. Otherwise, the two thousand soldiers of the Qin army who went with me would have no city to stop."

"Please rest assured that I have sent someone back to pass the order, recruit herdsmen to start selecting sites and preparing materials, and start construction immediately after they are ready, ensuring that a Hanhai City can be built soon, and it will definitely not be inferior to this Yudu Mountain City!"

The Bodhisattva said with a smile that he would continue to smile like this before he did not have enough strength to resist the Qin Dynasty. If he did not have enough strength, he would not turn against him even if he died in his life.

"Mr. Duke, come, I'll give you a glass. Please take care of me in the future." Liu Duwei poured a glass of wine for the Bodhisattva with a smile and handed it over.

The Bodhisattva stretched out his hands, took the wine glass respectfully, and drank it in one gulp, which was very generous and happy.
