Jin Xuan went down to arrange, and Liu Cong told Lu Jian about his promise to surrender to Cheng, and Jiang Wan realized that Liu Cong's letting others participate in the negotiation was nothing more than dragging down the tribal leaders, and he himself had already chosen a breakthrough.

"Lord, this Lu Jian still looks very shrewd, and now although he agrees to surrender, the lord still has to be careful."

"Well, these barbarians have refused to accept the king's transformation for many years, and suddenly they want to submit to them, and the only way to do so is to continue to show high pressure. But our army really can't let up. What do you think of the Koping tribe? ”

"I'm afraid that I won't be able to compromise today, that Kou Ping is a martial artist, although that Kou Jun seems to have some intelligence, but their courage seems to be greater than Lu Jian."

"It's better to say that they are more stubborn, and they don't know whether they live or die."

"Almost, if the lord wants to subdue Lu Jian, I'm afraid it's very difficult."

"Then it's straightforward, either surrender or go to war, tens of thousands of Wuling barbarians, if you don't kill some, even if you surrender to all of them, it will be difficult to manage in the future."

"The lord is wise!"

The two set the tone, and then went to see Kou Ping and Kou Zhun. At this moment, Kou Ping still has opinions, as Kou Jun said, Liu Cong plans to break them one by one, and everyone can see it, so Kou Ping despises Liu Cong's approach, and actually arranges Jin Xuan to talk to him, obviously not recognizing his status as the biggest leader, so he doesn't plan to talk to Jin Xuan at all.

This time, seeing Liu Cong bringing Jiang Wan in, he finally restrained a little, and under Kou Jun's signal, Kou Ping reluctantly saluted Liu Cong. Liu Cong looked at Kou Ping carefully, he was only thirty years old, but he was a very strong man, although it was winter, he only had a single coat on his body. is similar to Liu Cong in terms of size, if Liu Cong doesn't have a halo, he may not be able to beat him alone.

In the western part of Wuling County, he is the leader of the largest tribe, and he does have a proud capital, but today he met Liu Cong. Liu Cong ignored him, went straight to the top and sat down, closed his eyes and recuperated. Let Jiang Wan read out the recruitment policy again.

These policies Kou Ping and Kou Zhun had studied them many times in the cottage before they came, and they had also held meetings with other tribal leaders, so they were naturally familiar with them.

Seeing that Liu Cong didn't speak, Kou Ping didn't speak, and motioned for Kou Jun to come forward with his eyes.

Kou Jun paused and took a few steps forward to Liu Cong's case: "General, the court is so recruited, we are really not convinced!" ”

"Then please go back and prepare for battle." Liu Cong didn't get up or open his eyes, as if he had already made up his mind.

"General, do you see if you can do this...... Before we came, several tribes discussed, in fact, our requirements are not very high, as long as there is food to survive the winter. ”

"I don't think about working on weekdays, and the Han people should take the initiative to honor you when they harvest food?"

"That's not what it means, Lord General, we mountain people live in poor mountains and bad waters, and it is difficult to support ourselves even if we work hard."

"That's why General Ben arranged for you to move out as a whole, and give you food for the winter this year, what will you do next year? Isn't it the same as coming out to plunder the people? The imperial court has given you land, provided accommodation, and arranged for Han people to teach you farming, and you have done your best to be benevolent and righteous. If you don't know how to lift up again, don't blame General Ben for being cruel. ”

"Xiao'er Hugh is arrogant, can't tens of thousands of men in our dozens of tribes just eat idle food?" Kou Ping was originally an arrogant person, and after Liu Cong entered the house, he didn't look at the two of them squarely, and Kou Ping was very annoyed in his heart.

"The general, the chief, both of them are discouraged. Listen to the villain say a few words...... "Kou Jun is calmer than Kou Ping, Jin Xuan was very polite in negotiating with him before, but now that Liu Cong has been replaced, there is no reason for such a big change, so Kou Jun can't figure out what Liu Cong has to rely on for a while, he just wants to talk about it."

"I won't hide it from you, the other tribes have basically agreed to this general's recruitment plan, so the tens of thousands of men you said are empty words, even if there are only 6,000 women and children, so you have no bargaining chips with this general. General Ben is here to inform you, not to bargain with you, you can decide now, or you can go back and discuss with the rest of the tribe before deciding, the day after tomorrow is the deadline! ”

"General ......" saw that Liu Cong closed the door to negotiation, Kou Jun was anxious, negotiation and negotiation were nothing more than bargaining, he knew that it was such a situation, and if he didn't let him be the first to surrender, he might be able to get some benefits.

"Hmph, we'll see!" Kou Ping naturally didn't believe that Liu Cong could get rid of other tribes in such a short time, he walked out without looking back, he wanted to rush back to the cottage as soon as possible, and then send someone to contact the cottage to see what was going on.

Kou Jun couldn't stop Kou Ping, so he had to smile bitterly: "General, there will be a period later." After saying that, he turned around and chased after Kou Ping.

"General, what about the other tribes?"

"Let it dry for a while, and after half an hour, you can read out the recruitment plan one by one."

At this moment, Mu Kun and Sange were also waiting anxiously in their respective rooms, they had been relying on Kou Ping or Lu Jian, what the boss did, they followed behind. So Kou Ping called on everyone to have a meeting, everyone arrived, and then after some discussion, they came to the official mansion together.

This time, they were isolated alone, and they began to calmly think about the future and fate of their tribes.

But before they could figure it out, Jiang Wan came to the room, and after announcing the Zhao'an policy again, he let everyone leave, Mu Kun and Sange were now confused, and they all rushed back desperately, but instead of going back to their own tribe cottage, they went to Lujian and Kouping tribes respectively.

The other leaders who had left early had all gone to these two tribes without exception.

After Narujian returned to the tribe, he closed the mountain gate, and then convened the tribal elders to discuss. And Kou Ping was angry with Liu Cong and went back to the cottage directly, and when he returned to the cottage, there were already several leaders waiting.

When Mu Kun and Sange arrived, someone reported the movements of the Lujian tribe to Kou Ping.

"Lu Jian, this bastard, I think he is a thief on weekdays, needless to say, he will definitely surrender to the government as soon as possible, or good, once we concentrate our forces on the war with the government, we will also level them by the way!" Kou Ping said impassionedly, Kou Jun listened to it on the sidelines, and the other tribal leaders were even more uneasy, especially the few tribal leaders who were close to Lu Jian before, they came here to ask for a way because they couldn't enter the Lu Jian tribe.

Now that it seems that Lu Jian's attitude has become clear, the others have begun to waver. They are not as confident as Kou Ping, their tribe is only more than three or two thousand people, the few are only more than a thousand, and the officers and soldiers are a full eight thousand.

And at this moment, Lu Jian is convening the tribal elders for urgent consultation, although the conditions of the government are very harsh, but think about it, for so many years, isn't it all about comfort, the government provides fields, provides housing, and sends people to teach them to farm.

The only thing that was unpleasant was that Liu Cong insisted on splitting the tribe, so that many relatives and friends would have to be scattered.

However, Lu Jian can also understand that his own tribe of four or five thousand people, casually gathered near that county is a threat, although there is land and land, who can guarantee that no one is difficult to change.

If they do not accept submission, the tribesmen will starve if they do not go out to plunder, and they will face the encirclement and suppression of the government if they go to plunder, which is also a dilemma.

After the tribal leaders returned, Liu Cong ordered the troops to step up their drills, no matter how many tribes would take the initiative to submit in the next two days, the battle would definitely be inevitable.

In the evening of the next day, Liu Cong was sitting in the Yuanling County Ya to discuss the next military action with the generals, and Liu Yin hurriedly ran in.

"Lord, Lu Jian asks to see you."

came, Liu Cong was overjoyed, Lu Jian must have made up his mind to ask to see him at this moment.

"Fast pass. The generals are also tired, so let's go down and rest first. ”

The generals were ordered to go out, and there were only three people left in the hall for a hundred years: Liu Cong, Jin Xuan, and Jiang Wan.

"Lu Jian has met the general, Lord Jin, and Lord Jiang."

"Leader Lu, this is not the first time you and I have met, so you don't need to be polite." Liu Cong raised his eyes and saw that Lu Jian and his party were five people, four men and one woman. The men are all older, but the women are small and clear, at most seventeen or eighteen years old.

"General, these are the elders of our tribe, and I brought them here this time to let them listen to the general's teachings with their own ears. General, if you have any requests, you can directly order that our tribe has discussed it last night and decided to accept the general's recruitment. ”
