Chapter 2924 3188 Hunting

Lin Tianyao originally planned to go further the next day, maybe he could detect some situations in this way. However, he did not expect that Liu Yu would send someone to invite him over early the next morning.

When he arrived at the lobby, he saw Liu Yu. Seeing Liu Yu in military uniform, he couldn't help but be puzzled. He didn't understand until Liu Yu's cronies explained it to him. Liu Yu, I am going hunting.

According to Liu Yu's words, Youzhou is located on the border. As the pastor of Youzhou, it is absolutely impossible to just hold a high position and not have contact with the people. However, in Lin Tianyao's view, the way Liu Yu chose to contact the people was indeed a bit special.

This was the first time he heard that the chief's way of contacting the people was hunting. This is really incredible.

However, an hour later, looking at the mighty team in front, Lin Tianyao came to understand. Why, Liu Yu believes that "hunting" is an activity that is enjoyed by the people.

It turns out that the hunting Liu Yu mentioned is different from the hunting in Jinyang and other places. In hunting in Jinyang and other places, the officials' sons surrounded the farmland, put prey inside, and then a bunch of dudes chased the prey inside. Such hunting can not only be said to be fun with the people, but may also be hated by the people. The reason is very simple. The land enclosed by those dudes is the foundation of the farmers' life for a year. After being beaten like this, will this year's harvest be good?

However, hunting is a different story in Youzhou.

It is also located in a frontier, but in terms of civilized level, Youzhou is far worse than Bingzhou. Not to mention how sturdy the folk customs are. Moreover, compared to Bingzhou, Youzhou has a colder climate and wider pastures.

Such an environment breeds a wide variety of creatures. In summer, it becomes a paradise for tigers, leopards, and coyotes. On the vast land of Youzhou, it is not surprising to see these wild carnivores. However, in winter, when life dies and there is no sufficient food source, these large carnivores will pose a serious threat to the local residents of Youzhou.

This is the main reason why hunting is a national activity in Youzhou. Another reason is that Youzhou has been suffering from the invasion of grassland peoples for many years. Before Liu Yu arrived, every winter, the grassland peoples would go south to clear grass valleys. Although Huangfu Song and others guarded the border, they were impregnable. But the problem is that the direction of the grassland people's invasion is different every year.

Moreover, the so-called Dacao Valley, that is, the invasion of grassland peoples, usually comes and goes like the wind, and the targets are still small and medium-sized towns. By the time the Han army reacted and mobilized large troops, the small troops of the grassland people had already withdrawn. They usually operate in units of several hundred people, coming and going like the wind, causing huge trouble to Youzhou border defense.

Although now that Master Liu Yu is here, the relationship with the grassland people has been greatly improved. But I can't stand it. Every year, there are still some aliens who really can't survive and come to hunt for grass in the valley. Although the scale is small, it is still enough to cause a headache. In this case, national hunting can not only stabilize the rule of the local government, but also let the people know some of the simplest self-protection measures, instead of being able to beg for mercy in the event of an invasion.

And the hunting location is not enclosed farmland. Under Liu Yu's rule, such things were strictly prohibited from happening. There was once a general who was beheaded by Liu Yu after he reported it to the Ming court for privately enclosing farmland as a hunting ground. Since then, few have done so.

Of course, even if it is a "national hunting", it is impossible for the entire Jixian County to come out to hunt. That is impossible. Those who can really accompany Liu Yu on hunting are a very small number of people with special status. For example, there were officials' families in Jixian County and some big businessmen traveling to and from the frontier fortress. Only such people were qualified to accompany Liu Yu on hunting.

There has never been true joy with the people. All joy with the people is just a group of people elected to act as representatives of the people.

Lin Tianyao rode a horse and wore a bronze mask, covering his face. He didn't want to do this either, it was Liu Yu who asked him. After all, he had offended Military General Tower, and Military General Tower was so powerful that even in Youzhou, if he dared to show up, he would definitely be chased by Military General Tower.

Therefore, not many people knew about his coming to Youzhou. The Han court hid him under pressure and naturally would not let him be exposed so easily.

He rode his horse and walked beside Liu Yu. Now he was nominally Liu Yu's personal guard, so no one doubted his true identity.

"You come from Bingzhou, and the hunting style in Bingzhou is strong. I don't know, but what's the difference from my hunting in Youzhou?" Liu Yu sat on the horse, his face turned white due to the cold wind. At this moment, he saw Looking at Lin Tianyao, he asked with some difficulty.

"The hunting in Bingzhou cannot be compared with the hunting in Youzhou. It is not on such a scale, nor is there such a huge formation. Besides, there may not be such a huge hunting group on the Bingzhou grassland."

When Lin Tianyao said this, he couldn't help but think of Zhang Liao's little white hair. That white wolf, that night, must have summoned the entire Bingzhou wolf pack to create such a huge formation. And Youzhou…………

No matter how big the wolf pack is, if they see such a powerful group of people like them, they will probably run away without a trace.

After hearing this, Liu Yu was noncommittal. Lin Tianyao smiled coquettishly, didn't say anything, and still followed Liu Yu.

After the team arrived at the designated location, they quickly divided into several groups. Since it is hunting, too many people will alarm the prey. In that case, no matter how many people are dispatched, nothing will be found. As for Lin Tianyao, as expected, he was placed in the same team as Liu Yu. ....
