Langzhong north leans on Jiameng, follow the ancient Golden Bull Road to pass Hanzhong, to the east can follow another ancient road Micang Road and go out of Hanzhong to the Central Plains, to the south can follow the Golden Bull Road, Micang Road and go around the city and pass through the Jialing River running through the north and south, through the layers of barriers and pass through the hinterland of Bashu, it can be said that the mountain is surrounded by four sides, the water surrounds the three directions, Jialing is flowing blue, it is really the waterway to rush.

Fuquan, who returned to Langzhong County again, didn't know anything about Langzhong at the moment, after all, he had become the Taishou of Ba County, and he still had to have a certain understanding of the place he governed, and now the situation in Langzhong County is uncertain, of course he has to know more about the geographical location of Langzhong County, and then make a decision.

Of course, as for the recent uneventful gathering of the Barbarian Sect, Fu Quan does not plan to report it to the imperial court for the time being. It stands to reason that Fuquan should report immediately, but he has just been in office for more than a month, and this incident happened, undoubtedly slapping himself in the face, and now he doesn't want the court and the emperor to evaluate him badly, only when the affairs of Bajun are completely resolved, and then all the things are reported together, so that he can be worry-free.

The time of five days is not long, it is not short, it is over in a flash, Langzhong County is calm and harmonious as always on the surface, and the people are happy, but in the past few days, the government has been in the name of banyu barbarism, for the sake of safety, the government only allows the people to enter the city and is not allowed to go out of the city, but some villagers outside the city who dragged things into the city to sell made difficulties, and finally they could only wait for the limelight to pass before entering the city.

However, the only thing that makes people suspicious is that there are a lot of government servants patrolling the streets and alleys, inside and outside the city, and there are a lot of government servants patrolling, not as loose as usual, but very strict, once you find a suspicious person, you can't explain the origin, you will be arrested and imprisoned for a few days.

The seven nobles surnamed Ban Yuman, who have always hoped to get the absolute information of the Han army in Langzhong County, are obviously disappointed this time, the spies they sent are either regarded as suspicious elements by the government, and the officials who patrol are imprisoned with other ordinary people without asking questions, or they are blocked in Langzhong County and cannot get out of the city, so even if the spies of Ban Yuman already know that there are only more than 1,000 miscellaneous troops brought by Fuquan this time, but in the end, this news still cannot be delivered to the hands of the Ban Yu Barbarian Qu Marshal behind them.

On the fourth day, there was news that more than 10,000 county soldiers came from Ba County to Zhijiang Prefecture and stationed in Langzhong County.

At the moment, these Qu Shuai panicked, some proposed to resist to the death, and some proposed to escape with Du Kang, the scene was extremely chaotic, and in the end, Gong Suli overrode the public opinion, saying that if Fuquan destroys the Ban Barbarians, when he brings a large army to Langzhong County that day, he can encircle and suppress the Ban Yu Barbarians, why bother to this day without attacking. After hearing this, everyone was silent, and after thinking about it, there was no objection.

So, on the fifth day, all the Banyu barbarian commanders only brought a few cronies to Langzhong County to meet Bajun Taishou Fuquan. When they arrived outside the city of Langzhong County, they saw countless Han soldiers dressed in stubborn and stubborn formations, waiting for them with a serious face, as if the Han army intended to give them a dismount.

The flag is Xiao Xiao, and the strong wind with a piercing sound of breaking the sky blows the banners of the Han army that cannot be counted at a glance, and there are no less than 10,000 soldiers and horses at a cursory glance, so that the leader of Zhongqu Shuai did not regret his choice.

Gong Su had already guessed that Fuquan did not bring so many soldiers and horses of the Han Dynasty this time, so the previous internal quarrel between the Ban Yu Man, he supported Fu Quan, and so far the Ban Yu Barbarian Qu Marshal, who had been deceived by him, did not know the reality of the Han army. Now, the Fuquan army has been completed, and these Ban Yu barbarian commanders see this strong army, how can they still have the previous chic and casual, and they secretly pray that they will not be retaliated against by the Han people this time.

Qin Mi and these barbarian Qu Shuai not long after they met, and there was a previous envoy to Ban Yu Barbarian, this time Fu Quan still arranged for him to be a full diplomatic staff and came to greet the Ban Yu Barbarians. Of course, this time it will not be just Qin Mi, Fu Quan's other henchman, the chief bookkeeper Wang Mou was also ordered by Fu Quan to receive the leaders of the Ban Yu Barbarian Qu Shuai who came with Qin Mi.

"I've seen two clever people, small people in the mountains and wilderness, and I can't wait for the two of them to come here to greet them." The two parties saluted, and Gong Su said.

"You are the guests of the Futai Guard, so naturally you deserve it." Qin Mi replied.

"I wonder how Mr. was injured before? Can it be cured? On the way, Gong Suyin was familiar with Qin Mi and Wang Mou, and in order to inquire about Fuquan's attitude towards Ban Yu Man, he deliberately opened the conversation box and chatted casually with Qin Mi and Wang Mou. His words yesterday to appease the Ban Yu Barbarian were purely made up by his neighbors, how much credibility there is, he himself is not sure, only slowly verify, anyway, this Han Dynasty army is no less than 10,000 at the moment It is true, I only hope that Fu Quan will not be embarrassed by the Ban Yu barbarians.

"Healed, it's okay at this time." Qin Mi replied lightly, at this very time, he didn't want to have too much to do with this barbarian.

"It's okay, dare to ask if the Venerable Envoy Fu Taishou summoned us to come today, is there anything else?"

"Taishou has prepared a banquet for all the marshals, and if the marshals have any questions, they can inquire in person." Qin Mi didn't want to talk to Gong Su more, every word he said would reveal other news, so it was better to wait until Fu Quan saw Ban Yuman, and then consider whether to drag the whole thing out.

When Gong Su saw Qin Mi's appearance, he knew that he avoided talking about it, so he didn't ask anymore, and could only follow the two into the city. After entering the city, they did not go to the official office, but went to a famous wine shop in Langzhong County, which had been contracted by Fuquan, and invited the leaders of the Ban Yuman who came to apologize for their sins to a separate banquet.

The originally empty lobby of the wine shop became lively and dense, and Fuquan only cared about drinking and feasting with everyone, and talking about wine, but he never mentioned the purpose of summoning these leaders of the barbarian canal to Langzhong County this time, but it made a group of people extremely surprised in their hearts, thinking about things in their hearts, and they couldn't even raise any interest in drinking and having fun, but because of Fuquan's face, they could only toast each other with Fuquan's tent.

The wine was half drunk, and finally someone couldn't sit still, got up and walked to Fu Quan to salute and said: "The previous Wu Ban Barbarian gathering disturbed the Ba County place, we were deeply frightened, and today I came to make amends, I hope that Ming Gong will forgive me, and I will not be very grateful." As soon as the words came out, the hall fell silent, as long as the people who were interested in what Gong Su said, they calmed down one after another, and listened to Fu Quan and the others.

The person who got up to speak was Fu Quan's old acquaintance Gong Su, obviously as the leader of the Ban Yu Barbarian Qu Shuai, he knew the Han customs and Han Yi, and was familiar with Fu Quan, Gong Su was not afraid that Fu Quan would retaliate against him, so he talked directly to Fu Quan.

Fu Quan put the ear cup in his hand on the desk, and did not reply immediately, but the tiger eyes kept scanning and wandering on Gong Su and the other Ban Yu Barbarian Qu Shuai, and finally replied: "The previous Ban Yu Barbarian Party was all an accident, no need to mention it again, you Qu Shuai don't have to think too much, it will not be difficult for the Ban Yu Barbarian clan in the future." ”

"Thank you for your kindness!" When Fu Quan said that it was not difficult for the Ban Yu Barbarian clan, the other Ban Yu Barbarian Qu Marshals who were present were all overjoyed, and they all got up and saluted and thanked Fu Quan.

"It's okay, but I don't know how to deal with Dukang?" Fu Quan's face said lightly, but his words were obviously the opposite of his face, the name "Du Kang" seemed to have magic power at the moment, which made everyone present much quieter, and at the same time made those Qu Shuai feel a layer of uneasiness in their hearts, could it be that Fu Quan invited them to eat the Hongmen banquet today, and he wanted to come out to capture the thief and capture the king first to deal with the banyu barbarians?

Listening to Fu Quan's words, Gong Su's heart also sank, because Qin Mi sent a letter to Fu Quan through him, he could be sure that Fu Quan knew the specific things about this so-called gathering of Ban Yuman, and when Fu Quan mentioned Du Kang at this moment, he must have hated him for provoking Ban Yu to rebel like this. In this case, after thinking about it, Gong Su replied in a low voice: "Ban Yu Man strictly obeys the orders of Ming Gong, Ming Gong has an order, and Ban Yu Man must first capture the head of the thief of Du Kang, destroy his comrades, and dedicate it to Ming Gong." ”

Anyway, according to the meaning of Fu Quan's words, he would not embarrass the Ban Yu barbarians, and he only asked about Du Kang, which could only mean that Fu Quan had to die for Du Kang. In this case, Du Kang, who had already fled elsewhere at this time, would definitely not be able to protect Du Kang's gang. Gong Su also thought that this would happen when they came, but now, since they can't keep Dukang, they can only give up, for the continuation of the seven surnames of Banyu, they must give up.

However, Fu Quan's words immediately followed surprised Gong Su, he didn't expect Fu Quan to be like this, even in the lobby, the leaders of the Ban Yu Barbarian Qu Shuai were also surprised, and looked up at Fu Quan, they all felt very incredible.

I only heard Fuquan say in a righteous voice: "I don't want the barbarians to kill each other, and Du Kang is also a good citizen of the Han Dynasty, only because the officials of the former Banba County are not clear, so they are forced to rebel." Now he fled to the mountains and forests of Brazil, nowhere to be found, and Lone did not want to pursue, hoping that he would accept the appeasement of the Han Dynasty, saying that he would no longer make trouble in this life, and Lone would not be to blame in the past. ”

Fu Quan's words immediately gave Du Kang a fixed character, he completely distorted Du Kang's selfish and rebellion against the Han Dynasty, but only lightly characterized his affairs as being forced to be helpless, and wanted to recruit him and exempt him from his crimes, which made the leaders of the barbarian canals present very uncomfortable, which was completely different from the script they had thought of when they came, which was really incomprehensible.

Du Kang was also surprised and asked, "Ming Gong is laughing?" How could this be? After a pause, Du Kang felt speechless, and hurriedly said: "What Ming Gong said is extremely true, Du Kang's affairs are all caused by the lack of clarity, and when I return to the clan, I will send someone to the mountains and forests of Brazil to find Du Kang, and make him bound to the Ming Mansion to apologize." At this time, Fu Quan didn't pursue what Du Kang did, he couldn't question whether this thing was correct, and Fu Quan bluntly said that Du Kang was not guilty in this public place now, and he had already clarified the nature of this matter, what else did he touch?

In Gong Su's heart, he didn't want Du Kang to die, after all, the seven surnames of Ban Yu were the same as each other, even if Du Kang had a trick in order to force the Ban Yu barbarians to rebel again, but he had always adhered to the seven surnames of Ban Yu and never hurt the leader of the Ban Yu Barbarians, which was enough for Gong Su. Now at this time, Fu Quan did not pursue Du Kang's words, and said to Gong Su Lao that it was not the best of both worlds, not only to protect Ban Yuman from being surrounded and suppressed by the Han army, but also to prevent Du Kang and others from dying, so he changed his words and agreed very resolutely.

The leaders of the Ban Yu Barbarian Qu Shuai in the hall over there were also happy when they heard that Fu Quan did not pursue Du Kang's past, and they were just like Gong Su, and they didn't want Du Kang to be really killed by the Han people. Therefore, they looked at each other left and right for a long time, then got up again, and thanked Fu Quan together: "Taishou benevolence, thank you for your great kindness!" ”

Fu Quan nodded, and secretly said that the effect of buying horse bones like his daughter is not bad, and today's performance, I think that after I really take care of Du Kang, I will definitely have a high reputation in the hearts of the barbarians. If he is managing the people's livelihood in Bajun well in the future, he can really be governed by the barbarian as Qin Mi said before.

"I summoned you to come today, and there are other things, and I hope you will agree." Seeing this, Fuquan knew that the situation was in his own hands, so he wanted to say what was unfinished in his heart.

"Please speak up."

"The soldiers and horses in the county are scarce now, and the number of soldiers needs to be replenished.

Emperor Liu Hong's will to let Fu Quan recruit Ban Yu barbarians, Fu Quan has not yet carried out due to insufficient conditions, and now he takes this opportunity to inform the leaders of the Qu Shuai who control Ban Yu Barbarians, and they will not be disgusted. Of course, Fu Quan will definitely not say that this is Liu Hong's will, after all, the emperor gave him a secret decree, he didn't dare to make it public, anyway, Ba County is in the recent war, and it is necessary to recruit troops to make up the number of county soldiers, and it will not be suspicious to announce the recruitment of troops at this time.

The Han Dynasty wanted to recruit the barbarians as soldiers?

All the Qu Shuai were stunned for a moment, then their faces were ecstatic, and after the ecstasy, there was a trace of vigilant indifference, and all kinds of expressions constantly reflected on their faces. They were ecstatic that since the Han Dynasty wanted to recruit soldiers and barbarians, then the warriors who were selected as soldiers in their own house would bring them rich rewards and make the clan improve their lives. But what is vigilant is that they have just rebelled not long ago, and there is a civil strife that Du Kangna was stopped in the bud, but the Han Dynasty government still has to recruit troops at this time, will there be any conspiracy in this? Could it be a deliberate move by the Han Dynasty to confuse them? In fact, it is still necessary to encircle and suppress them......

At this moment, Gong Su also had this kind of question in his heart, but he trusted Fu Quan, after all, after several battles, Fu Quan knew that he would do what he said and would not deceive them like this, so he didn't ask more. Instead, following the topic of Fuquan, he directly asked some things that he must know, and then heard him ask: "Dare to ask Ming Gong, how much can you get a reward for recruiting soldiers?" ”

"Recruit one person and give 10,000 yuan."

"How are the soldiers good?"

"The strong must be recruited!"

"How much do you need to recruit?"

"At least five thousand!"

After a conversation, Gong Su confessed, and then returned to his seat, looking at the way the group of Qu Shuai discussed with each other, Fu Quan understood that they were already moved. The next thing is to wait for their reply, how to reply, without it, just bargaining, at this moment, in the eyes of the two magnates on both sides, like a piece of goods, as long as it gets a price that both parties agree, it can be transferred.
