Chapter 579: Blood, Flowing in the Prairie!
Chu Huan stayed in the Nashi tribe for only three days, and he felt that the efficiency of the Xiliang people was indeed amazing, although the assembly was not a regular army, but more and more warriors gathered from all over Gulaqin, and the attire of each tribe seemed to be roughly similar to that of outsiders, but in the eyes of the Xiliang people themselves, they had their own characteristics, they did not need to pay attention to the other party's banner, as long as they could see which tribe the other party was from the other party's clothing.
The Sbogully had already sent someone to arrange the camping place, and after the tribes arrived, they all camped according to the instructions, and everything was arranged in an orderly manner.
The tribes were large and small, and they brought more or less horses, and not all of them were cavalry, in fact, it was good for three out of ten people to have horses.
Almost every hour, new people arrived, and the tents in the camp were growing more and more.
Chu Huan and his subordinates have a special camp in the Nashi tribe to rest, these days Chu Huan strictly ordered his subordinates not to go out easily, let alone have any conflicts with the local Xiliang people, no matter how lively it is outside, everyone in the Qin State Mission must deal with it calmly.
In the past three days, Chu Huan has never seen Na Shi Bo Guli, not even Qi Luo, only knows that the headquarters of the Na Shi tribe is full of people coming and going every day, horses galloping, and the golden-roofed tent where Mahazang is located, there are people coming in and out every day, and it seems very busy, Mahazang invited Chu Huan to drink twice, Chu Huan politely declined, but the eldest prince is busy with official business, so it is not easy to disturb much.
However, the people of Xiliang take care of Chu Huan's side very much, and the food and water are sufficiently supplied every day, and they do not disturb this side easily.
Chu Huan has also been closed these days, but in his own account, he used to want to use the power of Maha Zang to find Xuanyuan Shengcai and his talents, but now that Xiliang has risen suddenly, there have been great changes, and it is naturally more difficult to find Xuanyuan Shengcai's people all the way.
Chu Huan had thought about finding another group of people from the mission earlier, rushing to Qingluo City in Xiliang as soon as possible, and completing the mission of welcoming relatives, but according to the current situation, there were internal disputes in Xiliang, and Maha hid in the Gulaqin Grassland to gather troops and horses, and it was naturally impossible for Qingluo City to be calm, and at this time, it was naturally impossible for the people of Xiliang to take care of the peace talks with Qin.
In the past few days, he has been in the tent, and Chu Huan has nothing to do, on the contrary, he has a lot of things to do, in addition to cultivating the Dragon Elephant Sutra, the most important thing is to peruse the three scriptures left by the ghost master.
The ghost master gave these three scriptures to himself very carefully, and also asked Chu Huan to memorize them as soon as possible and recite them from time to time, which seemed to attach great importance to these three scriptures.
There is also the ghost master's mantra before he died, although Chu Huan memorized it with superhuman memory, but that mantra was really obscure, and Chu Huan couldn't understand its meaning at all.
In the past few days, except for the cultivation of the "Dragon Elephant Sutra", almost all other energies have been drawn on the three scriptures and the set of mantras.
Three sets of scriptures, in fact, the number of words is really not much, each scripture, Chu Huan has read it at least ten times before and after, and many of the nouns are unusually rare and difficult to understand.
After a few days, Chu Huan actually understood that he had not been in contact with Buddhist scriptures before, and these Buddhist scriptures must have been the result of the painstaking efforts of the predecessors of the Great Heart Sect, and of course he could not understand them by imagination for no reason.
If you want to really understand the meaning of these scriptures, it seems that you can only have the opportunity to find Buddhist monks and ask others to help explain them on your behalf.
Although Chu Huan waited calmly in the Nashi tribe, the white blind man was already a little unable to sit still, this day he finally came to Chu Huan's tent to ask to see, when he saw Chu Huan, Chu Huan was sitting in the tent and reading the scriptures, signaling the white blind man to sit down, after the white blind man sat down, he immediately said softly: "My lord, there are more and more of them, in just a few days, thousands of people have gathered over." ”
Chu Huan put down the scriptures and said with a smile: "What do you think of these people? ”
"It looks like they're all tall and big." The white blind man said: "It's just that the equipment is too poor, many people's knives are a little damaged, and the pull of the bow and arrow is extremely weak...... They are the many tribes of the Gulaqin steppe, and I suspect that when the time comes, they will really go to war, and they will not be able to fight together. ”
Chu Huan bowed his head slightly, and said: "Qingluo City strictly controls all the departments of Xiliang, lest they rebel, so they have been monitoring their equipment, and it is impossible for them to have the opportunity to train and fight together. Mahazang hastily assembled the Gulaqin men and horses, and there were men and horses, but when it came to the real battle, it was just a group of rabble. ”
The white blind man said, "My lord, you said that Mahazang really wants to rely on these people to fight?" ”
Chu Huan didn't speak immediately, thoughtfully, and finally said, "I'm afraid he only has this way." He was exiled here and left Qingluo Wangcheng, which can only prove that Qingluo Wangcheng was controlled by the Mahara faction, in other words, the power hidden by this Maha in Xiliang is probably really not as strong as Mahaluo. ”
The white blind man leaned in and whispered, "My lord, do we still want to stay here?" Let's follow Mahazang, and if we really want to fight when the time comes, we will definitely be involved. ”
"We've been caught up in it." Chu Huan sighed: "And at this time, do you think we can still go?" ”
"What do you mean?"
"You should have seen that there are people coming and going around our camp every day." Chu Huan smiled faintly: "Every day, the people of Xiliang send things to our camp three or four times, sometimes sending milk wine, sometimes barbecue, and sometimes water...... Don't you think it's weird? ”
"Isn't this Mahazang entertaining us in the face of adults?" The white blind man frowned.
Chu Huan said with a smile: "Hospitality is naturally entertainment, but this is just a cover, mainly to see our movements and see our current situation." ”
"I see." The white blind man suddenly became angry, clenched his fists and said: "I thank them every time, and I also tell the brothers that the Xiliang people are hospitable, it turns out that they are visiting our reality, my lord, if you don't say so, I would have been fooled by them." He asked with a calm face: "My lord, are you saying that he sent people to monitor us inside and out, because he was afraid that we would run away?" ”
"Maha is hiding in a difficult situation, and if he can have more strength, he will naturally have more benefits." Chu Huan said: "Maybe he is still for the Great Qin Empire that we represent. Maha is hiding in gambling, but when the clever gambler gambles, he will also leave some hole cards, although we only have the twenty people, but on behalf of the Great Qin Empire, if he has no way out, he may not want to use us to walk with the Great Qin ......! ”
The white blind man sneered: "These Xiliang people eat dogs, let's see the excitement, their army has not yet withdrawn in my Great Qin, is it possible that he still thinks that my Great Qin will help him?" ”
Chu Huan shook his head and said, "Nothing is impossible. There are never permanent enemies or permanent friends between countries, only permanent interests. Brother Bai, in your opinion, what would I, Great Qin, most want to see in Xiliang? ”
The white blind man was not stupid, and said: "Look at their internal friction, the national strength is weak and weak, and they are powerless to pose a threat to my Great Qin!" ”
"Not bad." Chu Huan said: "The 100,000 troops of Xiliang suddenly stopped moving forward when our Great Qin soldiers were in their prime, and took the initiative to propose peace talks, although the reason is not completely determined now, but the approximate reason is the dispute between the crown princes of Xiliang." Now that the two princes are facing each other, it proves that the battle in Qingluo City has been very fierce before, and the rear is unstable, Xiao Tianwen naturally does not dare to enter the ...... easily! He touched his chin, thoughtfully, and after a while, he said: "We only have more than 20 people, this little bit of power, Mahazang will not look at it, but we represent Daqin, for his own retreat, he must have been exhausted, he can rely on the strength of my Daqin, and still be able to compete with Mahaluo!" ”
"It's just that the imperial court will really help him?" The white blind man questioned.
"Then it depends on how capable Mahazang is." Chu Huan said: "But he is the eldest prince of Xiliang, and he still has power in Xiliang, and there should be many tribes in Xiliang who are dissatisfied with Mahaluo, and those tribes will also choose Mahazang as their banner." As long as Maha Zang has a piece of power in Xiliang, as long as my Great Qin Imperial Court is sober-minded, it will inevitably support Maha Zang behind his back, and with the existence of Maha Zang, Xiliang will fall into internal friction, which is of course a favorable situation for my Great Qin. ”
The white blind man understood, "Mahazang is afraid that we will leave, is he worried that he will not be able to form an alliance with my Great Qin in the future?" ”
"It's all just my personal speculation, and I can't really do it." Chu Huan waved his hand and smiled: "If it comes, it will be safe, let's wait and see what happens." Our Great Qin has always known very little about Xiliang, and this chaos in Xiliang may allow us to have a very clear understanding of Xiliang. The most important thing is ......! After a pause, he said softly: "When it comes to the last resort Mahazang is desperate, we really want to help him, we can't watch Mahazang be annihilated by Mahaluo, otherwise the Xiliang people will inevitably be too boring...... If there is really going to be bloodshed, let their blood be sprinkled on the steppe! ”
The civil strife in Xiliang is bound to be the intersection of swords and soldiers, and as long as the Maha brothers fight each other for a day, the blood on the grassland will continue to flow, which is of course an unfortunate thing for the people of the various tribes in Xiliang.
Chu Huan didn't want to see bloodshed, death and injury, in fact, he hoped that the world would be peaceful, and the people in the world would live and work in peace and contentment, and be harmonious and beautiful.
But sometimes reality is never based on human will.
100,000 iron cavalry of the Western Liang broke through the Yanmen Pass, burned and looted the land they occupied, and once these hospitable herdsmen arrived in the land of other countries, they became red-eyed beasts.
Chu Huan has seen how many villages have been burned to the ground in the northwest land, how many people's wives and families have been broken and killed, wow, wow, crying children, old people, sturdy young people, and weak women have been ravaged under the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, and the Xiliang occupation area passed through before the mission left the customs, many places can see the decomposing corpses on the roadside, the white bones of the forest are chilling, the smell of decay can be smelled everywhere, and the Xiliang people are crazy and plundering in the land of Daqin, showing the ugliest side.
Yanmen Pass, which spent countless manpower, financial and material resources, was demolished by Xiliang Shengsheng.
If the civil strife in Xiliang subsides, then no matter which of these two princes is in power, it will not be a good thing for the Qin State, the Maha brothers are iron-blooded people full of belligerent factors in their bones, once one side wins, then he will definitely continue to cut his butcher's knife towards the Qin State.
For Chu Huan, he does not have the ability to make all human beings live in harmony and coexistence, if he really needs to sacrifice, then let the blood of the aliens flow and keep the peace of his own race.
In order for the people of the Great Qin Empire to shed less blood, Chu Huan was willing to assist the Western Liang people to shed more blood so that their civil strife would continue.
