Chapter 164: Poison Scheme

Touman left, leaving with the two warriors who had killed the right and left kings.

Li Mu turned his head to look at Zhao Jia, frowned, and said, "Will Gongzi provoke the Huns by proposing such harsh conditions?" ”

Zhao Jia smiled and said, "What if you are angry? ”

Li Mu was a little stunned at first, and then laughed.

yes, what if it's enraged?

The unruly Huns, if they really couldn't survive it, how could they kill Shan Yu and choose to surrender?

Today's Huns may be wiped out at any time.

No matter how harsh the conditions put forward by Zhao Jia, as long as these Huns wanted to live, they had to accept it.

Otherwise, all that awaits them is destruction.

Although Zhao Jia wanted to recruit the Huns and enrich the population of Zhao with these aliens, he would not fail to consider the risks.

In order to put an end to future troubles, in order to prevent the Huns from having the opportunity to rebel, Zhao Jia could only put forward extremely harsh conditions.

Zhuwenze.

More than two dozen tribal leaders looked forward to it, all with anticipation and uneasy looks on their faces.

"They're back, Touman, they're back!"

When a sharp-eyed person saw the three Touman approaching, he suddenly became excited, waving his arms and shouting loudly.

Seeing this, the leaders of the tribes stepped forward one after another.

"Touman, what did Zhao Jiang say?"

Ulu, the leader of the great tribe, was at the forefront, and asked with eagerness.

Tou Man's face is a little not good-looking.

He opened his mouth, but he didn't say anything, and only when all the tribal leaders were pale, did he sigh heavily.

"Zhao Ren promised to let me wait for my life."

When the tribal leaders heard this, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's just that the conditions are very harsh."

When the leaders heard this, their hearts rose to their throats again, and Ulu hurriedly asked, "What are the conditions?" ”

Tou Man looked around at everyone and said slowly: "First, before surrendering, we must hand over all the war horses, weapons, and armor, and we must not leave anything that can threaten the Zhao people. ”

Wulu hesitated: "The Zhao people are afraid that I will fight back after I get out of the canyon, and it can be forgiven if I have this condition, but we all surrender sincerely, I wonder if we can leave some war horses and weapons to equip the henchmen of the leaders of the tribes?" ”

Touman shook his head and said in a resolute tone: "Prince Jia, the eldest grandson of King Zhao, said that this time we will surrender unconditionally, and the war horses, weapons, armor, and banners, including more than 70,000 Hun warriors, are all trophies of the Zhao State. ”

"As trophies, we are not in a position to hide the rest of the loot."

When the leaders of the tribes heard this, their faces were all pale, their eyes met in the air, and in the end they could only sigh helplessly.

"What other conditions?"

Touman stared at Ulu and continued, "Second, after the surrender, before the dust settles, the warriors of the various tribes must be divided and divided, and the food allocated can only be fed. ”

"Since then, more than 70,000 people, whether they have been conscripted into the army, or sent to the frontier to serve in the frontier, or reduced to slavery, are all up to the Zhao people."

"If there is a rebel, there will be no mercy!"

Tou Man's voice fell, and everyone was in an uproar.

They thought that after they surrendered, they would be absorbed or relocated by the Zhao people, but they didn't expect that they would be imprisoned.

In this case, how is the more than 70,000 Hun warriors different from slaves?

"When we surrender, we can join the army of Zhao and fight for the Zhao people, but we are never willing to be slaves without freedom, let alone be executed at will!"

The noise sounded, and almost all the Huns in the vicinity showed a look of anger on their faces.

Touman folded his arms in front of his chest, but he didn't say much, just stared at everyone coldly.

Seeing that the situation was already a little out of control, fortunately, several big tribal leaders still retained their sanity and scolded again and again, which barely stabilized everyone's emotions.

Ulu said to Touman, "Isn't there room for negotiation in this matter?" ”

Touman sneered: "When you reach such a situation, what do you want!" ”

"Gongzijia has already said that we will either surrender unconditionally, or more than 70,000 Huns can only be trapped and die in the canyon."

Death, or humiliating living.

When this multiple-choice question was put in front of everyone, almost everyone chose the latter.

It's just that Ulu still asked with some reluctance: "If the Zhao people do this, even if the tribal warriors surrender, I'm afraid they will also have resentment." ”

"Isn't it possible that the Zhao people can't be a little lenient with me and wait?"

When Touman heard this, a smile appeared on his face.

"Gongzi Jia is not a harsh person, and the warriors of the Huns such as us are also extremely important to the Zhao State."

"It's just that we are new investors, and if we don't manage it strictly, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no chaos, so we made this decision."

Speaking of this, Tou Man suddenly raised his voice: "Gongzijia said: Zhao Guo must be rewarded for meritorious service, and he will be punished for his mistakes." ”

"If we surrender, if we can bring our family members to Zhao State, Zhao State will not only buy houses and fields for me and other family members, but also let me get rid of slavery status and become real Zhao people."

When these words fell, everyone who originally found it difficult to accept them immediately showed joy.

Who doesn't have a family?

As long as you can bring your family to settle in Zhao State, you can get rid of slave status and enjoy the same rights as Zhao people, I am afraid that everyone will find a way to bring your family to Zhao State.

What's more, the Huns, who live in pursuit of water and grass, seem to be chic and uninhibited, but in fact, life is not good.

If you can be like the Zhao people, have a house and land, and can settle down in peace, many people from small tribes who have an unsatisfactory life may be very supportive.

But soon, someone asked: "Then may I ask, how can we bring our family to Zhao State, will the Zhao people let us and others return to Saiwai?" ”

Tou Man said with a smile: "After a while, Gongzi Jiahui will lead the troops out of the fortress, and take the leaders of the tribes and some tribal warriors to collect the tribes. ”

"As long as we do our best to cooperate, it will not be difficult for you to reunite with your family."

The people who were still doubtful just now were all overjoyed when they heard what they said.

Only the leaders of the tribes were pale, and there was a look of horror in their eyes.

Zhao Jia's strategy is so poisonous!

Even if more than 70,000 Huns surrendered to Zhao, it would not be easy for Zhao to digest and control these young and strong.

Not to mention, the women and children of the tribes scattered outside the Cyprus.

Even if most of the Xiongnu Qingqiang died on the banks of Zhuwenze, it is almost impossible for the Zhao people to want to capture the population of the Xiongnu tribes.

However, with the leaders of the Xiongnu tribes as the leading party, and the warriors in the tribes appearing to say, supplemented by the powerful force of the Zhao State as a deterrent, the Zhao people can even absorb the Xiongnu tribes without blood.

Perhaps, only Shan Yu and the tribe where King Zuo Xian is located will resist fiercely.

However, after losing most of the three sturdy super tribes, the fate of the rebellion was only destruction.

Threatening the lives of more than 70,000 Xiongnu warriors, he first forced them to surrender unconditionally, and then used the restoration of their freedom as bait to get these people to agree to take their families into Zhao.

Then, Zhao used the families of these Xiongnu warriors as a threat, and after all the tribes were moved into the territory of Zhao, let these people scatter and settle, with their families as fetters, even if some Xiongnu warriors had some other ideas, they could only endure it after all.

And so it goes.

When these Xiongnu people adapted to the lifestyle of semi-animal husbandry and half-farming, they would be assimilated into the Zhao people.

For the Huns.

This seemingly simple strategy wiped out the Xiongnu tribes invisibly, and its viciousness even exceeded that of the sword soldiers.
