Jia Pi saw Pei Bao suddenly start a fire, and his heart was also helpless, but he knew that this was not entirely the result of the emperor's blind obedience to Confucianism, the internal migration of the Hu people began in the Eastern Han Dynasty and even earlier, and the Han Dynasty continued to recruit troops and laborers from the Hu people since Emperor Wu, which accelerated the internal migration of the Hu people, and when it came to the Three Kingdoms, Cao Cao vigorously moved the Hu people inward to meet the needs of war and development, and such a policy became even more intensified in the Jin Dynasty.

Thinking of this, Jia Pi sighed helplessly, and then patted Pei Bao's shoulder comfortingly, and said comfortingly: "Go to sleep."

However, at this time, Pei Bao became more and more excited, his eyes widened, and he said in a questioning tone for the first time: "My lord! I just want to ask you one thing now!?

Jia Pi was stunned for a moment by Pei Bao's question, you must know that this Pei Bao is usually respectful and humble in front of him, but today he has become so rude!

And Jia Pi also found that he was really shocked by Pei Bao's strange appearance, so Jia Pi replied cautiously: "If you have anything to say, just say it, there is no one else here, you and I can talk about it but it doesn't hurt!" ”

"My lord, if it is really possible to resist the Huns, are you willing to rise up and be the first person to resist the Huns in this pass and even in Hexi?!"

Under Pei Bao's questioning, Jia Pi's eyes also became cautious, in fact, in Jia Pi's own heart, why don't you want to serve the country? But how can a husband kill his family out of righteous indignation? How can they only care about themselves and ignore the life and death of the people?

So Jia Pi knows very well in his heart that although the decision he is making now is correct, it is actually against his wish to protect his family and defend the country since he was a child!

And Jia Pi was suddenly stimulated by Pei Bao's words and integrity, and even went against his usual calmness, and swore to the sky: "If there is an opportunity to drive away the barbarians, I will bear the brunt!" ”

After Pei Bao heard Jia Pi's words, his emotions slowly calmed down, he slowly knelt down to Jia Pi, and said in a low voice: "Pei Bao is willing to serve the lord for the rest of his life!" ”

Jia Pi looked at Pei Bao in surprise, this person kneeling in front of him has been taking refuge in himself until now, although he has been conscientious and meticulous, he has never called himself a lord, he has always called himself a subordinate, but he didn't expect that because of his oath, he actually knelt down to confess to himself!

Jia Pi suddenly felt that his body was a little stiff, maybe he was shocked by Pei Bao's behavior, or maybe it was because he was shaken by his oath to the deepest heart of serving the country and the people, but in any case, Jia Pi now felt that he no longer seemed to be as desperate as before, at least he saw that there were Jin people like Pei Bao who were unwilling to be conquered and enslaved by the Hu people!

Jia Pi knew that although he had said a lot of words to Yao Yizhong or Pei Bao about the temporarily dormant Huns, the root cause was because Jia Pi himself was a little desperate, because in his opinion, almost all of them were Hu people, and the local Jin people also began to grovel when they saw the Hu people, and they had long lost much backbone, which made Jia Pi's heart disappointed, so he had so many cowardly and dormant thoughts, and now, when he saw Pei Bao's firm and passionate eyes, it seemed that his heart was also full of strength!

Three miles outside Jingchuan Hot Spring

Yao Yizhong and his uncle Yao Baozhu were already on the road back to Nan'an Chiting.

Yao Yizhong sped up the horse's gallop until he was next to his uncle.

"Uncle, I think my father-in-law already knows everything I did in Nan'an!"

"Oh? Does he know that you are already the leader of the tribe? ”

"It should be, otherwise he wouldn't want to marry me for no reason!"

"Well, you have a point, but I don't see anything bad about you?"

"Not only does he want to marry his daughter to me, but he also has to teach him everything he has learned in his life!"

"What! How is this possible? That's more expensive than giving us a thousand miles of pasture or farmland! ”

"Yes, knowledge can be passed on to future generations!"

"Then why do you think Japi thinks so highly of you?"

"I don't know, but the only thing I know is that he doesn't hide anything from me at all!"

"This is really incredible, forget it, Zhong'er, let's rush back to the tribe first, since Lord Jia intends to unite our clan, we also have to show some strength, let him see how worthwhile it is to befriend us!"

"Uncle is saying to do something that my father-in-law wants to do but can't do by himself?"

"Not bad"

"Great idea! Then we will go and grab all the territory of Lu Shuihu, and while they go to Liangzhou, we will go and copy their hometown! ”

"Haha, I'er! Good boy, uncle is waiting for your words! ”

"Haha, that Peng Dangzhong couldn't have imagined that his plan to make Dou Xianyi and my father-in-law infighting instead exposed the fact that his own territory was empty, as long as we annexed Lu Shuihu's territory, even if he took Liangzhou, it would be just a weed without roots and grass, and our power would become even stronger! The Huns will treat us more cautiously, and my father-in-law will rely on me more! ”

"Haha, Zhong'er, if my brother is still alive, I will be extremely happy!"

"Uncle, you are also my good father!"

When Yao Baozhu heard this, his heart immediately warmed, and after nodding affirmatively at Yao Yizhong, he sped up the speed of the horse again!

Yao Yizhong also followed the speed of the horse, and quickly rushed to Nan'an with his uncle and clansmen.

Early in the morning of the fifth day of the ninth month of the ninth month of 311 A.D

Zhao Ran's army had already pursued all the way to the foot of Shaohua Mountain (Shaohua Mountain is located in the south of Liujiahe Village, Shaohua Township, Shaanxi Province, about five kilometers southeast of the county seat. Xiaofuyu in the east, Baishiyu in the western suburbs, the elevation of the main peak is 1664.4 meters. Shaohua Mountain is not only a famous Taoist mountain in China, but also a sister mountain of Xiyue Huashan, and has been called "Erhua" since ancient times. The literati and writers of the past dynasties have written many poems and articles praising Shaohua Mountain, and Wang Bodang, a good man in the green forest at the end of the Sui Dynasty, gathered here, and many stories of the nine-patterned dragon Shi Jin in the famous book "Water Margin" took place in Shaohua Mountain).

Zhao Ran looked at these soldiers behind him, one by one still looked exhausted, this from crossing the Yellow River to laying down Tongguan and then all the way non-stop rush has made his soldiers' combat effectiveness drop too much, and Zhao Ran found that many of the war horses he brought have died and a lot of diarrhea, it seems that if the saddle on the horse's back is not removed, the stomach of these horses will be bad (horses are very delicate animals, so the horse's belly can not be strangled for a long time, otherwise the stomach will be bad, And horses mostly die of gastrointestinal diseases .......) ......

So Zhao Ran shook his head helplessly, and had to order the soldiers to rest here for another night, otherwise they wouldn't be able to hurry at all!

And Chun Yuding, who he chased all the way, is nowhere to be seen! And in order to catch him, he also broke a lot of people along the way, but this damn Chun Yuding didn't even want the dignity of a general, and even let his sergeants scatter and escape, and the people and horses who went to capture it by themselves for a while were a little scrambling, and Leng let him run away like this! Later, I learned that Chun Yuding didn't know what to do, and he really let him grab a horse and successfully escape!

So as long as Zhao Ran thinks of Chun Yuding now, he will feel a little itchy.

After Zhao Ran looked around for a while, he ordered the herald beside him: "Have a good rest today, and rush to Xia Tai at dawn tomorrow!"
