Chapter 781 There is coal in Shanxi!

The remaining old Xiongnu knelt down and begged Ma Chao and said something that Ma Chao didn't understand. But Ma Chao knew that he hoped that Ma Chao could let go of dozens of children behind him.

The first person to find Li Zihao's caravan was this old Xiongnu. He came to take their descendants to see how to slaughter and plunder the Han people according to the tradition of the Huns. Use facts to tell them: the Han people are the sheep raised by the Huns. When they need it, they can be killed.

But now, Ma Chao didn't even hesitate. He swept the head of the old Huns with one shot, and the blood rushed to the air, and the rest of the Huns, including the children, raised the machete in their hands and killed them. The dirty little faces were ferocious because of fear. Unfortunately, their fragile bodies could not stop the power of the dragon and lying tiger gun. Force.

The corpses all over the ground, old and young, thick and slender, were all placed as an altar by the Ma army. Ma Chao looked at these heads and said, "Send them to Yuvro, and he will understand what I mean."

War is like this. Either you die or I live. There is no reason. Ma Chao believes that the Ma family army understands this truth, and the tribe that attacked the Ma family caravan also understands it. However, they were unlucky today and kicked on the iron plate. Only after the heroes and children in the tribe died, they were annexed by other tribes of the chaotic Xiongnu.

As for whether it is swallowed by Yuvro, Ma Chao doesn't care.

Although the information obtained so far seems that Yuvluo has developed smoothly: since he returned to the Xiongnu tribe, Yuvluo has not relaxed the differentiation of the Xiongnu tribe, and now he is busy conquering those tribes that do not obey his discipline when the Xiongnu dragons are not leader. After getting the Huayu of the old king of the Xiongnu, Yuvruo's ambition and reputation obviously rose several levels.

However, Ma Chao never believed that Yuvro was qualified to be his enemy. In his opinion, Yuvro's previous performance has always been very good. People are also very smart. They may even see through the development intention of the Ma family and know that they have been painstakingly into the ambition of the Central Plains. However, he was wrong. He thought smartly that if the Ma family left him, the Xiongnu could not penetrate.

Tuoba slowly walked towards Ma Chao with his own unknown mood, but when he walked five steps away from Ma Chao, he suddenly saw a black and white lightning in the sky, suddenly inserted into the ground with a powerful momentum! Then, the horse was shocked and almost fell from the horse!

After finally appeasing the war horse, Tuoba immediately understood what Ma Chao meant. He hesitated for a moment, then turned over and got off his horse. After pulling out Ma Chao's crouching gun, he raised his hands above his head, knelt in front of Ma Chao, and said respectfully, "Tuoba and 1364 people of the tribe are willing to submit to the feet of General Tian. In the future, I will be your eagle, your horse, your whip, your machete... Your will is my mission!"

"Don't say these meaningless vows. I've heard a traitor say that." Ma Chao took the Panlong crouching tiger gun and nodded on Tuoba's shoulder. After signaling him to get up, he opened his mouth and continued, "Now, it is the conversation between the descendants of General Fubo and the descendants of General Dahan Fei. I agree with those on the grassland, but I will never believe it!"

Li Chi behind him, listening to Ma Chao's words, couldn't help but show a strange light in his eyes. But then, after seeing the obvious ecstatic look and gratitude on Tuoba's face, he also sighed silently in his heart: The seven-foot man was still entangled with the resentment of a hundred years ago. He was really ashamed of his ancestors!

Just when Tuoba was grateful and wanted to be loyal to Ma Chao again, Li Zihao, who was covered in blood, quickly ran to Ma Chao, forgot the etiquette of the minister and said excitedly, "Lord, here you are coming! I have good news here!..." Speaking of this, Li Zihao looked around and saw the wolf-like general behind Ma Chao and felt the strange atmosphere before he realized it and hurriedly saluted Ma Chao.

Ma Chao is extremely cruel to the enemy, but quite loose to his own people. After turning over and getting off the horse, he ignored the excited face. Instead, he pulled Li Zihao to a quiet place and said, "Say, have you found any big business opportunities to make a fortune again?"

What do you see and say? As soon as Ma Chao said this, Li Zihao immediately forgot the previous killing and panic and said excitedly, "Lord, I should have returned to Chang'an two days ago. However, in recent days, the Huns have been in chaos, and many caravans without the escort of the Ma army have died. My subordinates couldn't bear to dig their graves, but this dig... Guess what I dug up?!"

Ma Chao couldn't help but turn black after hearing this. Li Zihao was really unrestrained. But at least I'm your leader, and you let your leader guess the wool! Therefore, Ma Chao said angrily, "What, have you dug gold?"

"Not bad! It's just digging gold!" Li Zihao didn't hear Ma Chao's tone at all, but said more excitedly, "It's just that the gold is black, which is the black gold in your mouth - coal!"

After listening to Ma Chao, his whole body stiffened, and then he simply slapped himself directly: the place where the Xiongnu was active was Bingzhou, but what was Bingzhou's name in his previous life? It's called Shanxi!

What's in Shanxi?

is a person who only has primary school knowledge and knows that there is coal in Shanxi!!

Moreover, Shanxi has not only coal, but also iron!

If there is coal and iron, it is equivalent to heavy industry, while heavy industry is equal to excellent equipment and weapons, and excellent equipment and weapons are equal to... Improvement of combat effectiveness!

"Lord, you don't know that there is too much coal there and too easy to mine!" Li Zihao saw Ma Chao's stunned appearance, and his eyes smiled into a crack: "I was there for a few days just to mark the locations where the coal was hidden. You see..."

With that, Li Zihao took out a map from his arms. After Ma Chao took a hasty look, put it into his arms, patted Li Zihao on the shoulder and said, "Do you know that you have changed the fate of the whole Huns!"

"What?" Li Zihao was really happy, but suddenly when he heard Ma Chao's words, he suddenly couldn't understand.

"It doesn't matter, you don't have to know this. Anyway, this is a good thing." The smile at the corners of Ma Chao's mouth became more and more obvious. He took Li Zihao's back and slowly walked back to everyone. As he walked, he said, "After I am Chang'an, I will definitely give you very much. Whether you want an official, a woman, or... Forget it, you are not short of money."

"official?" Li Zihao was stunned. You know, in this era when scholars and doctors dominate the court, merchants rarely participate in political affairs. Even those huge business families have been operating for decades or even hundreds of years before entering the officialdom after the next generation is dressed as a doctor. At this time, Ma Chao's meaning is...

"Not bad! There is absolutely no problem for you to be an official. What the household department needs is a talent like you!" Ma Chao laughed. In fact, Ma Chao had already planned to add official positions to Guan Shanxue, Li Zihao and Yu Pan. And under the promotion of the Ma family imperial examination 'unconventional talent', this is even more icing on the cake.

However, now there is Li Zihao's great work. Ma Chao felt that the official position of Wailang, a member of the household department he originally formulated for Li Zihao, was a little low...

In a good mood, Ma Chao looks much better on everyone. Especially when looking at Tuoba, it is as greedy and enthusiastic as a tiger looking at a rabbit. However, when he looked at the vast grassland again and the occasional smoke of war on the grassland, he said coldly in his heart, "Yuvruo, you will soon understand that the Ma family can still control the Xiongnu if they leave you. And you can only pay for your arrogance and ignorance today!"
