After Liu Xian finished speaking, Xiang Liyue said hesitantly: "Brother Liu Xian, this ...... It's not that the patriarch doesn't trust you, but ...... If you say, in case you know that you are going to die, you ...... You're not going to give us such an order, are you? Do you know that the young and strong people of our clan, one less is one, it turns out that our clan, our ancestors came to live here, more than 100 years have passed, and now the population is not more than 10,000. You say......"

Liu Xian knew Xiang Liyue's worries, and waved his hand and said, "At this point, you can rest assured that Patriarch Xiang Liyue." I, Liu Xian, will never let your clan's military horses attack an enemy who is far stronger than you. The orders I have given you, as long as you do what you do and do not discount them, will be safe and sound. At least I won't give you an order to die. In addition, under normal circumstances, I will not let your clan's military horses carry out some special combat missions alone, and even if they do, they will definitely have my men and horses with you. In this way, we will both prosper and lose. ”

"In this case, that's okay, I can trust you, Brother Liu Xian!" Xiang Liyue thought about it and asserted that he agreed.

"Brother Xiang Liyue, you will definitely be happy with today's decision in the future, believe me, follow me, your Qiang tribe will definitely grow and develop! Of course, you also have to remember that in the future, your Qiang tribe is also a part of the Han Dynasty, and the Han and Qiang are brothers, no matter what, you can't have different intentions, let alone kill innocent Han people for no reason. ”

"At this point, I can lead the entire tribe to swear to Liyue! From now on, I will truly submit to the Han Dynasty and be willing to obey all the orders of Lord Liu Xian! ”

"Well, good! After our people have counted your tribe, when the real cavalry of your Qiang tribe is formed, an oath ceremony can be held to form an army, and when the time comes, let every Qiang person firmly remember that our Han and Qiang are brothers, no matter what happens in the future, we will definitely not be able to fight in the same room, we must aim our swords and guns at our common enemy! ”

"That's right! As it should be! ”

"Well, now that you have made a decision, Brother Liyue, and the words have been spoken, then I can also tell you something." Liu Xian struck while the iron was hot and said: "This time, we plan to expand the original county seat and rebuild a big city on the original site of Zengshan County." Therefore, I suggest that those members of your tribe who are no longer willing to live a herding life should move into the city. Then, in your tribal territory, I plan to use it exclusively for the domestication of war horses, and the people in your tribe who are willing to continue grazing will preside over the domestication of war horses. However, I also have to send people into your territory, and even make your tribal territory a military stronghold, and in peacetime, my cavalry will also be trained here in horsemanship, cavalry archery, cavalry formation, and so on. And when the time comes, I hope that Brother Liyue can stay in this clan territory and still preside over all the affairs of this clan territory. How is it? ”

"That's true!"

"Seriously!"

"Good! In this way, we really don't distinguish between each other, and we can just solve the part of the tribe that has become accustomed to the customs and life of the Han people. Don't hide it from Brother Liu Xian...... No, my lord! ”

Xiang Liyue was really happy, at this time, he had quickly entered the role, and felt that the title was wrong, so he quickly stood up, walked quickly in front of Liu Xian, and bowed to Liu Xian: "The lord is above!" Please accept the Qiang people to worship Liyue! ”

Liu Xian also hurriedly stepped forward, helped Xiang Liyue up, and said: "Xiang Liyue, you are indeed a refreshing person, but there is no need to do this, I, Liu Xian, don't like these superficial things, what I care about is how to do things in the future." From now on, we are our own people! “

"My lord! Now that he has been submitted to the Lord, some etiquette and righteousness cannot be abolished. By the way, this main seat, please take a seat. Xiang Liyue pointed to his patriarch's main seat and wanted to pull Liu Xian to sit up.

"Excuse me!" Liu Xian waved his hand and said, "I really don't look down on you as the patriarch throne, just sit by yourself." ”

"That, that...... In this case, it is not very decent......" Xiang Liyue's eyes rolled at this time, slapped his thigh and said, "There is!" Lord, it's better for us to kiss and kiss! I have a younger sister, who looks like a flower, very beautiful, and now it is time to be married, but she has not yet married, and the warriors of her clan usually break their heads for her, and almost every day someone fights for her. In this way, I will marry my sister to you, so that we are real relatives. In this way, I continue to sit in the position of the patriarch, and I am at ease, and I will not feel that there is a courtesy of being inferior to the upper and lower, because you are my brother-in-law, haha, that's it. ”

Xiang Liyue said, and the more he talked about it, the more he felt that his idea was really wonderful. Everything is fake, and he has formed a family with Liu Xian, so he won't take care of his Qiang tribe much in the future? In other words, he also felt that he could truly feel at ease when he became a family member.

"To the Rose! Come out for my brother, where did you go to the wild again? Someone, bring the rose to the patriarch! ”

Xiang Liyue glanced at his patriarch's tent at this time, but he didn't see his sister, so he immediately shouted loudly and asked people to find her sister.

Liu Xian didn't have time to stop or refuse at this time, this is to Liyue, and he really wants to come out of it, this is talking about his tribe being obedient to himself, why is this suddenly talking about marrying a sister again?

"That ......" Liu Xian said: "Brother Liyue, this is not appropriate, I have already married and can no longer marry Sister Ling." ”

"What? What's wrong with that? Isn't it normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines? It's okay, I don't care, what do you care? This matter is decided, unless, you Han people look down on our Qiang tribe! Otherwise, you are not allowed to refuse, otherwise, we will give you the woman of our patriarch. ”

……

Liu Xian hurriedly stopped.

Among some foreign tribesmen, there is indeed a custom of wife and guest, which should really sleep with other people's wives, Liu Xian...... Well, this guy always feels a little weird.

"Well, there's no need to rush this matter, it's dark now, and our affairs are similar, just a few details. Or, I will leave first, and then send someone tomorrow, or go to Brother Liyue, you will go to Zengshan County? ”

"Say goodbye? No one is allowed to leave tonight! ”

Xiang Liyue said resolutely: "Now that it's dark, can I still let you rush back to Zengshan County overnight?" Besides, now that I have taken refuge in you, this place is also equivalent to your place. That's right, come on, invite all the brothers of Lord Liu Xian outside the gate of the village to come in, and put a better attitude for your own people, and in the future, you are all going to fight together. Just go! ”

Well, Liu Xian doesn't seem to be able to leave tonight.

"Alright, let's not leave tonight. By the way, Brother Xiang Liyue, there are still some things that I have to tell you clearly. As I said earlier, I plan to build a new city in Zengshan County. Then I have to form absolute control over the area around Zengshan County. However, in these areas, it is estimated that your Qiang tribe is the most powerful, right? It should be that the Huns, who had a larger population, were the most powerful. In addition, there may be some other alien tribes. I'd like to know about all of these alien tribes. All that is left must be surrendered to oneself. The treatment given to them is the same as that given to Brother Xiang Liyue. Therefore, I hope you can help persuade those foreign tribes, if the persuasion is useless, I will personally visit them, if it still doesn't work, then I will send an army to expel them, I don't want this, I hope they can see the benefits and disadvantages like Brother Liyue. ”

"Yes, after the affairs of my own people have been dealt with, I will personally go to the territory of those tribesmen, talk to their chiefs, and show them what is at stake. I believe that a large part of the tribes are willing to submit to the Lord. But...... Those Xiongnu tribes, as well as some tribes that are usually rampant, it is difficult to say. ”

"Don't worry! I also know that the Huns will not sincerely submit to the Han Dynasty, and will not be truly willing to submit to me. To be honest, the Huns in the desert outside the Saiwai have always been eyeing the Han Dynasty, and it is estimated that there will be a large-scale invasion of our Han Dynasty soon. I plan to build a city here, in fact, it is also to target the Huns. At this point, you must also be mentally prepared, soon, we will have to confront the powerful Xiongnu tribes, some battles are inevitable, I hope your tribesmen, when the time comes, do not retreat. ”

"The Huns are strong, can they be as strong as the Han Dynasty? At the beginning, they were able to defeat the Huns and surrender to the Han Dynasty, and I believe that they can do the same now. Please rest assured! Our Qiang tribe is actually not weaker than their Xiongnu tribe, when you really need to fight them, please ask the lord to command it casually! Speaking of which, we also have a feud with the Xiongnu tribesmen. With the Han Dynasty and the lord as the backing of our Qiang tribes, we are not afraid of the Huns! "Go to Liyue's arrogant road.

"Good! I have long heard that you Qiang people are brave and fearless, this is a real good man! Liu Xian praised.

This time Liu Xian came to this Qiang tribe territory, and everything seemed to be going well.

This is actually really normal.

The Qiang tribe, among them, there are indeed many people who have been completely sinicized. Now, they speak the language of the Han people, learn the Han language, and if it weren't for some tribal customs that they couldn't abandon, and then dress up as Han people, it would indeed be no different from ordinary Han people.

And they have lived in this area for more than 100 years, which is actually a long time in comparison.

Xiang Liyue, the patriarch who is only in his thirties is already a young new generation of Qiang people. He himself is a person who is more seriously sinicized.,I've also learned a lot of Han culture.。

The knowledge has been broadened, so the judgment of the situation under some circumstances has become more profound.

He knew very well that the future of his Qiang tribe would definitely not be the herding life of his ancestors. In fact, they are not very used to herding in the desert steppes.

The most important thing is that the desert steppe has been occupied by more powerful tribesmen, and their Qiang tribe is basically without a place to live in the desert. In this way, when Liu Xian said that they could choose to leave, he did not consider this issue at all.

And he also saw clearly, in fact, no matter how powerful the Huns are now, they can never be stronger than the Han. Even if Dahan does have problems in all aspects now, it seems to be a little weak. But so what? The land in China is rich and the people are outstanding. Even if the Huns are strong for a while, they can even defeat the Han Dynasty. But so what?

The Middle Earth of China, even if it is a change of dynasty, is the Middle Earth of the Han people after all, and it has never been occupied by these foreign tribes.

Even if it can be occupied for a while, it will never last. If the grudges between these foreign tribes and the Han people are too deep to be resolved, then at that time, they will only have the fate of extermination.

Xiang Liyue did have some foresight, and in this way, he also deeply knew that his Qiang tribe, which was less than 10,000 people, must recognize some facts and firmly find his position.

If Liu Xian had not suddenly migrated hundreds of thousands of Han people to Zengshan County, he did have a plan to control Zengshan County and let his tribe occupy Zengshan County for development. But that was also an adventure for his tribe. Because, the other tribesmen will never let him occupy Zengshan County, once he dares to occupy it openly, then it will definitely attract the attack of other foreign tribes. And the most important thing is the Han court, if he dares to occupy it openly, in case the Han court regards his tribe as a rebellion, it will be a bad thing. At that time, their tribe will really be in danger of being razed.

It is precisely because of this that he did not insist and did not really clash with Xi Zhicai and others who came to Zengshan County earlier. Then, they have been secretly paying close attention to the every move of these Han people.

At the beginning, they were even a little worried that these Han people would cut them off, and they would ignore the three-seven-twenty-one, and find his tribe first.

To Xiang Liyue's surprise, Liu Xian came to him, which was equivalent to giving him a chance to truly submit to the Han Dynasty. But they couldn't ask for it.

Therefore, don't look at Liu Xianlai's persuasion of them so smoothly, in fact, they have long had the heart to truly submit to the Han.

In fact, just like in Xiliang now, the local Hu people, including the large tribes of the Qiang people, are also rebelling. But their rebellion was actually forced, and it was the Han court and the local government that oppressed them too much.

If they can survive and live, they will not easily rebel and will not seriously betray the Han. In fact, if the Han court sends people to negotiate with them now, give them certain benefits, change some attitudes towards them, no longer oppression, and reduce their living burden as much as possible. In this way, they will surely surrender and will not rebel again.

To put it bluntly, if everyone lives well, who is idle and has nothing to do with the rebellion that kills their heads?
