On this day, Liu Xiu discussed the military with Xun You, Lu Yi and others in the barracks, studied the situation of Baishi City that the scouts had inquired about, and prepared for the next siege.

"General, the Qiang army and the people are fighting"

"What?" Liu Xiu and the others stood up in unison

Pound couldn't cry and laughed: "General, you better go out and have a look, if you don't stop them, you will really go to war"

Liu Xiu didn't dare to slack off, hurriedly got up and went out, stepped on the horse, and followed Pang De to the gate of the city to see the chaotic scene, Liu Xiu was startled Hundreds of Han people with a variety of weapons, surrounded more than a dozen Qiang soldiers in the middle, although there were few Qiang people, but they were not afraid, holding the war knife in their hands, standing back to back in a circle formation, it was the defensive formation that was being practiced recently, and I didn't think that it would be used to deal with the people before it was used in the battle array

"Call a bird? Lao Tzu is a subordinate of General Wei, you dare to mess around? The Qiang people shouted and scolded, and from time to time they shook the war knife in their hands, forcing back the people who were too close

Some of the people were holding spears and ring knives, some were holding iron forks, some were holding kitchen knives, and the outrageous one was an aunt, carrying a big iron spoon in her hand, pointing at a fierce-looking Qiang soldier, and shouting in a voice similar to a lion's roar: "The shameless Qiang dog, dare to carry the banner of General Wei to scare people? General Wei is the most protective of our people, where are you thieves who steal chickens and dogs, quickly hand over the old lady's laying hens, or the old lady will slaughter you as a chicken."

"Hey, you stinky bitch, I'm fighting for you, what's wrong with eating your chicken?"

"Shut up, you don't know how to admit your mistakes when you do bad things, and you dare to be hard-mouthed?" A middle-aged man in an official uniform hurriedly arrived, just when he heard the Qiang man's rebuttal, he couldn't help but shout, this voice was full of anger, and immediately suppressed those voices The Qiang soldier was startled, and when he looked up, he happened to see Liu Xiu, and hurriedly shouted: "General Wei, help, these people are going to attack the official army"

Liu Xiu scolded secretly, and said in his heart, you are not enough to steal the people's chickens, and you have to be involved in the official army, alas, Lao Tzu's face is really lost by you, but the Qiang man shouted, and all the people saw him, and he couldn't say anything if he didn't come forward, so he had to jump off the horse and walk into the crowd with a cheeky face, and asked majestically: "What's the matter?" ”

"General Wei?" The middle-aged man looked him up and down, and bowed his hand: "Longxi Changshi Niu Gai, meet General Wei"

"You're Niu Gai?"

"Exactly"

"Oh, I heard Yuntian mention you, it is said that your Dong Yingchuan's son-in-law Niu Fu is of the same clan"

Niu Gai nodded, Liu Xiu had a relationship with him in front of everyone, and he was not too blunt, but his attitude didn't take long, and it was hard to listen to it

"Longxi people welcome the general and also welcome the general's team, but they do not welcome the general's subordinate Qiang army Qiang people are not clean, to Longxi for a few days, either stealing, or robbing, making Di Daocheng chicken dog restless Originally, Han Qiang was the enemy, was stolen, was robbed, then can only blame themselves for poor care, now they are the general's subordinates, is the official army, what should we do? If there is a conflict with them, not to mention that there will be casualties, even if the general does not look good on the face, please ask the general to drive them away, or ask the general to strictly restrain them, so as not to cause trouble."

Liu Xiu was taken aback, and there was disdainful that Longxi Taishou Li Shen also participated in the rebellion, after Liu Xiu arrived in Longxi, Li Shen fled to Baishi City with the Qiang people, the county affairs are now in charge of this Niu Changshi Niu Gai is Di Dao surname, the ancestor Niu Han is a famous general in the early Eastern Han Dynasty, brave and strong, recommended by Du Lin and Ma Yuan, made a captain to protect the Qiang, and came to Ping Longyou Dong Zhuo's son-in-law Niu Fu came from their family, it is said that in terms of generation, he is still Niu Fu's uncle but Dong Zhuo treats the Qiang people differently, He was very disgusted with the Qiang Liu Xiu and felt that he might be using the topic to make trouble, the purpose was to drive the Qiang army out of Longxi

"Niu Changshi, are you serious?" Liu Xiu snorted, "Isn't it just a few chickens, I'll compensate you, come here"

The Qiang man walked up to Liu Xiu with his head held high, and arched his hand: "What does the general command?" ”

Looking at his deity, Liu Xiu is really embarrassed, with poor military discipline, it's just stealing people's chickens, and he is so proud of being caught, do you still have a little shame? He patiently asked, "Did you steal the people's chickens?" ”

"Yes, thirteen chickens, five dogs, and a pig"

Liu Xiu was taken aback, this is not something to do casually, this is premeditated Ah He looked at the smug face of the Qiang man, and wanted to slap him twice, but after thinking about it, he endured it, the ugliness of the family should not be publicized, even if there was anything, he had to wait until he went back to clean it up

"You go back first, and then go to my tent with you Captain Li" Liu Xiu waved his hand and signaled them to hurry up and get out of the house, and those Qiang people couldn't see that Liu Xiu was on fire now, but was very proud, carrying chickens, dragging dogs, and pigs, and swaggering away like the devil army that swept into the village

"Ladies and gentlemen, Liu is not strict in governing the army and disturbing the place, I am really ashamed and ashamed" Liu Xiu gave his hand to the indignant people around him again and again, and asked Pang De to take out the money: "I bought the things they stole, and I will compensate you twice the market price, I promise you, there will never be such a thing in the future, if there is, you come to me directly, I will punish you severely"

The aunt with the iron spoon took twice the chicken money, her attitude was obviously relaxed, but her voice was still loud: "General Wei, you can't say that, it's all these Qiang dogs whose hands and feet are not clean, and they have nothing to do with General Wei, and the Han people under General Wei have never taken a single chicken feather from us, and they are good to us."

Someone next to him shouted loudly: "That's it, General Wei's military discipline is nothing to say, if you want to blame it, you can only blame these Qiang people for not changing their bad habits, and when they get to General Wei's subordinates, they still do that kind of useless thing."

Liu Xiu apologized again and again, saying that he was still relatively strict in governing the army, and his offerings to the soldiers were relatively thick, and the requirements were relatively strict, especially not allowed to disturb the local people, even the Huns did not dare to be presumptuous, and these Qiang people had just returned to Shun not long ago, and they could not do this

"General Wei, it's not that we are nitpicking, it's really that these Qiang people can't educate General Wei to fight with them, but it's okay to love them as officers and soldiers, that's not very suitable" Niu Gai saw that Liu Xiu's attitude was so good, and he lost money, so he didn't want to say anything more, "For General Wei's plan, let's drive those Qiang people out of the city"

Liu Xiu was a little unhappy, and was about to say another again, Koji Yi made a look, got up and pulled Niu Gai out, and said in a low voice as he walked: "Brother Niu, don't worry, our general will definitely deal with this matter and give you a satisfactory answer, but now is the time to employ people, although these Qiang troops have poor military discipline, they are still brave in battle, so please Brother Niu give me a face, how about taking care of me?" ”

Koji Yi is the surname of Jincheng, and now he is a general under Liu Xiu, Niu Gai can't help but give him face, so he has to disperse the people, go first, Koji Yi persuaded Niu Gai away, returned to Liu Xiu's side, and accompanied Liu Xiu to walk back, and said with a smile: "General, Niu Changshi will not say that this matter is wrong, the Qiang people are really good at stealing and robbing, not only robbing other people's but even their own brothers, if the general is not restrained, I am afraid that there will be a big mess at that time."

Seeing that Koji Yi said cautiously, Liu Xiu didn't dare to take it lightly, and asked people to invite Li Wenhou, Li Wenhou had already been rewarded by the Qiang people, and hurried over, and before he could speak, his face turned red He twisted for a moment, but still nodded: "Niu Changshi and Captain Koji are right, we Qiang people...... It's really easy to steal and rob, even my own brothers rob it."

Liu Xiu was very surprised, looked at Lu Yi, and then looked at Li Wenhou Li Wenhou thought that he was worried about himself, and hurriedly shook his hand and said: "But please rest assured, the brothers of the Golden Deer Battalion and I have been fighting with the Han people for many years, and we have already changed this habit, even if what Niu Changshi said is true, it is a person, I will go back and strictly control it, they should ...... It shouldn't be a problem."

Liu Xiu heard that Li Wenhou had been staying with the Han people for a long time, and he also felt that this habit was not good, but his subordinates still had this habit, but it was not so serious, and from his heart, he did not feel that it was a bad habit

"Why...... Will you have this habit? ”

Li Wenhou let out a long sigh: "It's not poor" He said to Liu Xiu, the Qiang people live very poorly, and many times they are oscillating between life and death, because the land is barren, there is little arable land, and it is impossible for them to get rich by grazing alone In this case, robbery and theft have become the most convenient means to get rich, so the Qiang people are not ashamed of stealing and robbing, but feel that this is the most legitimate behavior of a man, robbing the enemy, robbing other tribes, and even robbing their own brothers, as long as they can make their lives a little more comfortable, They can do anything

Because of this, it is also difficult for the Qiang and the Han people to live together from the Western Han Dynasty, the imperial court has continued to move the attached Qiang people inward and live together with the Han people, but the Qiang people's habit of stealing makes the Han people very unaccustomed, and there are often conflicts, and conflicts together, the Han officials will accuse the Qiang people of their opinion, this is indeed a problem, but in the eyes of the Qiang people, stealing is a matter of course, what is so strange, this is the Han people's officials favoring the Han people, bullying the Qiang people Over time, the Qiang people rebelled again

The Qiang people not only can't talk about the Han people, but they can't cooperate with the Qiang people themselves, and the Qiang people have also survived in Liangzhou for hundreds of years, and when they are strong, they have also given the court of the Central Plains a headache, but the Qiang people have not been as strong as the Xiongnu and Xianbei people, the reason is that they do not agree with each other, and there has never been a monarch is a clear proof that the Han people killed the Qiang people, and the most powerful assistants are the Qiang people, not others

The Qiang people are not strong enough, so they are easy to defeat, but because the Qiang people are scattered and independent, it is difficult for the Qiang people to be completely conquered

Liu Xiu understood, and felt that it was both funny and helpless, the so-called poor mountains and bad waters came out of the people, the Qiang people have this kind of thought, it is ridiculous, and it is not sad if this problem is not solved, I am afraid that sooner or later there will be a dirty Qiang rebellion between the Qiang army and the Han army The Qiang rebellion in Liangzhou lasted for hundreds of years, and there were countless various Qiang strategies, but no one mentioned this custom, it seems that most of those Han officials think about the problem from their own point of view, no one thinks about it from the perspective of the Qiang people, in fact, the Qiang people are the same as the Han people, if there is no way to live, who is willing to steal and rob, Even treat this as a gifted right

In the final analysis, if the survival problem of the Qiang people is not solved, the solution to the Qiang chaos is an empty word

"Wenhou, you go and tell the soldiers of the Golden Deer Battalion that there are often rewards for military salaries now, and you don't have to worry about eating and drinking, why do you want to steal and rob? With that jingli, wait for the time to fight from now on, this kind of thing is absolutely not allowed to happen, find out that one kills one and fights with me, as long as I have a bite to eat, I will not let them go hungry This habit of stealing is still changed, otherwise something will definitely happen in the future"

Li Wenhou nodded again and again, although he followed Liu Xiu for a few days, but Liu Xiu's kindness to the soldiers was obvious to all, Duan Cheng was known as the most generous to the soldiers, but that was mostly for the Han army soldiers, not so kind to the Qiang people, Liu Xiu is the Han and Qiang equals, as long as there is a share of the Han army, there is a share of the Qiang army, which makes the Qiang soldiers very grateful

Li Wenhou walked away and smiled without saying a word, he stroked the short beard on his chin, and muttered for a moment: "General, do you know why the Qiang people can't live?" ”

"The land is barren"

"No," Ko Yi shook his head: "Yes, there are too many Qiang people, the land is fixed, and it can only feed a certain number of people, and if there are too many people, there will definitely be people starving or even starving to death, you just give them more land, and one day it will not be enough, so the solution to the fundamental problem is to kill the superfluous people, and naturally the world is peaceful."

Liu Xiu was stunned for a moment, and then thought of the situation in the Central Plains, although the Great Han Kingdom now has such a problem because of the serious annexation, but then again, even if there is no annexation, with the growth of the population, sooner or later the land will be insufficient, there will be people without land, there will be people who can't live, tyranny in the final analysis, is just a catalyst, even if there is no tyranny, this problem will come sooner or later

There are too many people, is this the root cause, can technology solve it? In the 21st century, the earth's population of 6 billion people is also overwhelmed, and environmental problems and survival problems cannot be reconciled

Fortunately, it hasn't reached that point yet, and he doesn't need to kill people like Koji Yi said, take 10,000 steps back, even if he wants to kill people, he can't kill his own people first, and the rabbit doesn't eat the grass next to the nest As for what to do after the whole earth is his own people, it is a problem for the descendants, and leave it to the descendants to solve

"Yuntian, people are also a kind of wealth, killing people to solve the crisis, of course, is a way, but it is the most clumsy way" Liu Xiu said while secretly thinking to himself, I have to say, this is the most clumsy way, and it is also the most problematic way He thought about it, and said, "You go and say to Niu Gai, I will strictly enforce military discipline, but this is not a day or two can be effective, if there are still Qiang people whose hands and feet are not clean, let him report the loss to me, I will definitely compensate them just don't make trouble like today, If you don't do it, if you hurt someone, it's not easy to deal with."

"Oh" Koji answered, got up and went out

Liu Xiu slapped his forehead, this is only a Qiang military camp, what a loss, he can afford to pay it, and when the seven Qiang military camps are fully formed, it will not be a small number It seems that this military discipline problem must be grasped from now on, otherwise there will be hardships in the future

"General, the military camp has always been a mixed place, and these things are inevitable" Xun You said disapprerovingly: "Besides, if you change the problem of the Qiang people, it may not be a good thing for the general."

Liu Xiu smiled, and said in his heart that he didn't want the Qiang people to form a group, but he couldn't be so nonsense

"The general should order that the Qiang people can follow their own customs, steal or rob, as long as they don't hurt people, they can ignore the Han and Qiang, they can't do this, find one, deal with one" Xun You owes a debt, and said with a smile: "If there are good Qiang people who are willing to follow the rules of the Han army, then join the Han army and no longer follow the rules of the Qiang army."

Liu Xiu's eyes rolled, and his heart said that Xun You's plan is poisonous, as long as there is no food and clothing, who wants to worry about it every day, this order, I am afraid that the richest group of Qiang people will soon join the Han army, and they will no longer be in the company of the poor Qiang people, as the war progresses, more and more Qiang people will slowly become Han army

But can this turn the Qiang people into Han Chinese? I'm afraid that it may not be, as if many of the Wuhu people who were Sinicized in the Wuhu chaos of China later, these people are familiar with Han culture, their destructive power is far stronger than that of pure Hu people, and their ambition is greater than that of pure Hu people

In a word, non-my race, its heart must be different, ethnic integration has never been smooth sailing Xun You's plan seems feasible, but there are also unpredictable hidden dangers, this is not Xun You is not smart enough, it is that he has not had such an experience, in their eyes, no matter how the kingless Qiang Hu knows Han culture, or Qiang Hu, how dare they covet the Central Plains, they don't know, people's ambition is cultivated step by step

……

In February, Yan Zhong brought good news, the Jiang family and the Yan family in Hanyang each sent a thousand people to form a battalion, led by Jiang Wu of the Jiang family, Yan Wen of the Yan family recruited more than a thousand horse thieves for the Guo family of deputy Zhang Ye, and the Duan family led by Guo Yan Needless to say, as soon as he heard that it was Liu Xiu who was going to form the seven battalions of the Han army, he immediately agreed to recruit the children of the clan and unite the other surnames of Wuwei, plus the righteous servants who followed Duan Cheng to fight that year, a total of more than 2,500 people, but the Duan family asked this battalion to be commanded by Duan Xuan, At present, Jia Yun, a clansman of Jia Xu, is temporarily in charge of Longxi, because most of the soldiers in Longxi have followed Dong Zhuo, and at this time, forming a battalion to join Liu Xiu may cause Dong Zhuo's dissatisfaction, so there is no response for the time being, Wudu has not gone for the time being, Jiuquan and Dunhuang are too far away, and they can't be taken into account for a while, so they can only talk about it later

Liu Xiu was very satisfied, Yan Zhong ran around, increased six thousand men and horses, plus more than 1,000 people in Liyi and his personal guard battalion, the main force of the Han army has exceeded 10,000, and there are finally available people at hand Liangzhou has been in turmoil for many years, and most of the soldiers can fight on horseback, although there is still a certain distance from Liu Xiu's personal guard battalion, it is enough to deal with the Qiang people

Liu Xiu rubbed his hands, ready to fight again, right here, and three more news came: one was sent by Fu Xie, he and the wolf took the wolf camp to the big and small elm valleys, and they really gained a lot, basically swept away the assets that Zhong Qiang had accumulated for many years, but this also completely angered Zhong Dian and the entire Zhong Qiang, they frantically searched for traces of the wolf camp everywhere, and wanted to take revenge and regain the loss, the wolf camp is now not dragged down by the old and weak, the action is fast, and the robbery has enough baggage, so that Zhong Qiang was not caught, For more than a month, he has been taking Zhong Qiang around the mountains, but Zhong Qiang has too many people, and he may be caught by them if he is not careful, Fu Xie asked Liu Xiu to do something to attract Zhong Dian's attention, so that the Sky Wolf Camp can have a time to breathe

The second is sent by Zhao Yun, he and Xu Rong have joined forces, and have defeated the Qiang people in the north and Anding, and the Qiang people are currently fleeing in the direction of Longxi and Jincheng, please Liu Xiu decide the next action, whether to encircle and annihilate these Qiang people, or drive away

The last news was that the imperial court sent by Xun Yu appointed Zuo Chang as the assassin of Liangzhou, and asked Fu Wan to come to Liangzhou to issue an edict, they are now on the way to Liangzhou, please Liu Xiu be ready to meet them

Ren Liangzhou stabbing history? Liu Xiu was very annoyed when he heard the news

Yan Zhong didn't say a word, just put Xun Yu's codex on the desk lightly, Liu Xiu saw that he was calm, and he also calmed down, "Since Ren Liangzhou Assassin Shi is here, I can concentrate on military affairs, and I don't have to worry so much every day" Liu Xiu looked at Xun Yu and then at Yan Zhong, "Look, shouldn't this Assassin Mansion return to Di Dao?" ”

Before his words fell, Yan Zhong nodded and said, "What the general said is very true, now the Qiang chaos is not peaceful, the grain and grass are tight, it is necessary to raise money nearby, and the Liangzhou Thorn History Department was originally supposed to be in Di Dao, but later the Qiang people invaded, so they moved to Ji County, and now they want to fight against the Qiang people, so it is naturally better to return to Di Dao."

Xun You could hear that Liu Xiu was very disgusted with this Ren's Liangzhou Assassin History, not for this person, but for this appointment of Liu Xiu to build the Han Seventh Battalion and the Qiang Seventh Battalion in Liangzhou, that is naturally to lay a foundation in Liangzhou, and he does not want to be taken away by the Son of Heaven like Bingzhou, and his Song Shu has been sent to Luoyang, but the Liangzhou Assassin Shi appointed by the Son of Heaven is naturally an attempt to contain Liu Xiu, and it is strange that Liu Xiu is not angry

And Yan Zhong's strategy is obviously to send this Ren Liangzhou Thorn History to the Qiang people's mouth, if he really does what he says, I am afraid that this Liangzhou Thorn History will be cut off by the Qiang people in a few months, if it is spread to Luoyang, what will the Son of Heaven think?

Xun You thought about it for a long time, and finally reminded: "General, Your Majesty agrees that the general will build seven battalions of the Han Army and seven battalions of the Qiang Army, and it is better not to let people interfere with this military power."

Yan Zhong's eyes flashed, and then a touch of shame flashed
