Li Xinchen put down the teacup and looked at the situation outlined on the map.

This is a map about Nanzhong, and the age is hundreds of years ago, when the owner of this land was still Shu Han. After that, the smoke of the Northern and Southern Dynasties was billowing in, and the Central Plains Dynasty and the Jiangnan Dynasty had always stopped at Bashu, and there were few policies and actions to continue to extend southward.

Nominally, Nanzhong is still the land of the Northern Zhou, but this connection is already very weak, somewhat similar to the fetters of later generations, these tribes are obviously no longer subject to the Northern Zhou, and there is not much surrender to the Southern Chen. And the Northern Zhou didn't even clean up the Bashu stall, let alone govern the South Central School.

Over time, Nanzhong no longer belonged to the jurisdiction of the Central Plains Dynasty.

When Li Xinchen took Bashu, the last weak relationship between these tribes and the Northern Zhou was also cut off, of course, because of the lack of information, in fact, it was not until Du Qi went to Nanzhong that these Nanzhong tribes knew that the outside world had undergone earth-shaking changes - maybe it was not for the whole world, but it was true for the tribes in Nanzhong who only had a single connection with the outside world, Bashu.

In fact, they are more accustomed to submitting to the masters of the Central Plains not but the masters of Bashu.

Li Xinchen didn't expect these tribes in Nanzhong that had not been in contact with the Central Plains for too long to want to bow their heads as soon as they met, after all, compared to the Ba people at that time, although their living conditions were not very good, they still had the ability to be self-sufficient, and there were not many Han activities in Nanzhong, so these Nanzhong tribes did not need to deliberately avoid anything.

However, Li Xinchen also knows that he is not without bargaining chips, and now he has become a whole rather than a scattered Bashu, and he is undoubtedly a new boss to follow. And Li Xinchen himself is not an unknown person, he has come this way, Wei Xiaokuan, Wei Chi Yuan, etc., who were trampled under his feet, are the best proof of Li Xinchen's ability.

No matter how closed Nanzhong is, it is not without news from the Central Plains, and even the Northern Zhou will send envoys and officials from time to time, it can still maintain the prestige of the Northern Zhou in the hearts of various tribes in the Southern Central, and it is these officials and envoys that Li Xinchen wants to thank.

According to Du Qi's description, thanks to these officials and envoys, the southern and central departments still know very well about the generals of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, after all, if you want to show the strength of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, it is indeed a good choice to use the examples of these famous generals, but now all these efforts are obviously to make a wedding dress for Li Xinchen, because the record of defeating Wei Xiaokuan and Wei Chi Hui and others is enough to prove that Li Xinchen is more powerful than the Northern Zhou, even if it is now whether it is national strength, military strength or anything, Li Xinchen is not qualified to be compared with the Northern Zhou.

For the various tribes in Nanzhong, the so-called land, money and food are actually an abstract concept, and they are still more admired and obeyed by the strong, as long as the personal strength is strong enough, then naturally they have the ability to lead more people, so naturally they can also give the various tribes in Nanzhong what they want.

This is also the reason why the good news came from Duzzy so quickly.

The requirements for land, money and food are very broad, but it does not mean that they do not have any requirements, after all, if a cave master wants to sit firmly in his position and let his subordinates support him, then he also needs to bring benefits to his subordinates and prove that he has this qualification and ability.

And following Li Xinchen, a newly rising Bashu powerhouse, and being able to obtain certain benefits in the competition in the future world, is indeed a good choice for these cave masters.

Now Li Xinchen is sitting in front of the map, quietly looking at the terrain of Nanzhong, and the footsteps hurriedly sounded, and Du Qi's figure appeared in Li Xinchen's eyes. Li Xinchen raised his eyes unhurriedly and looked over, compared with more than a month ago, Du Qi had become a lot darker, and he was also stronger.

Li Xinchen had to admit that the ability of these Ba people to travel in the mountains was indeed far better than that of the Han people, their small posture and strong muscles were simply born for mountain warfare, if they did not have the help of the Ba people, or even if they were enemies with the Ba people, they could not imagine what would happen.

Du Qi was also stunned when he saw Li Xinchen, and couldn't help but sigh softly in his heart, now Li Xinchen is sitting in front of the table, wearing a clean white robe, looking like a sage child full of wealth.

But those who understand know in their hearts what kind of means this killing god used to defeat any opponent who wanted to challenge him, and what kind of vigor and resoluteness he used to suppress the entire Bashu.

Quiet as a virgin, moving as a rabbit, soldiers act, should be like this.

Although Du Qi has not read a few books, this truth is still very clear, so that the enemy who knows the gains and losses can easily control the entire battle situation in his hands, and can judge when to make a move, and when to watch from the sidelines.

If Duzi had to choose, he wouldn't want to be an opponent with such a person. He has dealt with many Han people, and Tang Yishun and others are already difficult to deal with, but being difficult to deal with does not mean that he can't deal with them, but only Li Xinchen, which makes Du Qi feel that he can't be his opponent in his life.

"See the general!" Du Qi didn't dare to slack off, and while saluting, he turned sideways slightly, "General, my subordinates went to Nanzhong, fortunately, I didn't disgrace my life, this is Dong Shanping, the envoy elected by the eleven tribes in Nanzhong. ”

Behind Du Qi was a sturdy middle-aged man who was not good-looking, compared to Du Qi, this Dong Shanping seemed to be darker, his tanned face was angular, and a pair of copper bell eyes looked straight at Li Xinchen.

Du Qi coughed lightly, and this Dong Shanping seemed to realize what kind of person was sitting in front of him, and he arched his hand a little stiffly: "Dong Shanping see General Zhenxi." ”

Li Xinchen stood up and made a gesture of support: "Please get up." ”

Dong Shanping's Chinese is still fluent, which makes Li Xinchen a little surprised, but after thinking about it, Nanzhong and the Central Plains are not at all connected, and it is reasonable for people in Nanzhong to speak Chinese, and these Nanzhong tribes must have taken this into account when they elected Dong Shanping to come.

Dong Shanping obviously didn't be polite to Li Xinchen - or in other words, for these barbarian tribes, it was not easy to barely abide by the etiquette of the Han people, and immediately said with a smile: "The southern and central departments have long admired the prestige of General Zhenxi, and today I have to see General Zhenxi, and those rumors seem to be true!" ”

Li Xinchen also smiled, although he did not have the ability to see people and talk about people, but of course he could not use the same tone and attitude towards old ministers of the Han family such as Gu Yewang and barbarians like Du Qi and Dong Shanping.

Although Li Xinchen is somewhat resistant to the barbarians' lack of attention to the barbarians, it is not that Li Xinchen is hypocritical, but as a superior, in order to maintain his basic dignity and status, of course, Li Xinchen can only take the initiative to hook up with his subordinates, of course, it cannot be his subordinates who take the initiative to come up and call Li Xinchen brothers.
