Chapter 122: Qiu Liju's Decision

The ultimate goal of the dictatorial rulers of ancient China was to dwarf, enslave, weaken, fool, and scandalize the common people, so that they would always bow down at their feet, release their absolute will without any scruples, maintain their absolute authority, let the people always be blindly obedient and superstitious, and let themselves and their descendants be powerful and blessed forever.

Since Gongsun Xu traveled to the end of the Han Dynasty, he did not engage in that kind of god-making movement, because he knew that the current emperor was only a self-proclaimed Son of Heaven, and he was not an immortal.

Once he made such a god-making movement, he would definitely be feared by the emperor and pushed to a position hostile to the Han Dynasty, and even provoke the emperor and nip him in the bud.

Zhang Jiao is a living example, rebellion is rebellion, get out those gods and ghosts, there is no benefit at all, once the myth is shattered, no one will believe him.

Gongsun Xu didn't expect that his own soldiers and some generals had already begun to mythologize him at this time, but this kind of thing, they didn't say it on the surface on weekdays.

He didn't expect that this time he easily took Xiangping City because his own soldier Qiu Mao mythologized him and reassured those wavering soldiers, and insisted until he led his soldiers to arrive.

Zhang Chun's self-inflicted incident did not surprise Gongsun Xu.

In Gongsun Xu's heart, a hero like Zhang Chun can also be said to be a big man in the late Han Dynasty.

How can the characters who can sweep most of Youzhou be idle people, it's just that Zhang Chun's luck is not good, and most of his subordinates are soldiers of the Han army, so it will become such a situation.

Choosing to kill himself was his best choice, and if he killed himself, at least for decades to come, someone would remember him, and if he was really caught and killed, then he would not even have any hope of being praised.

The most important thing is that once Zhang Chun kills himself, Gongsun Xu will definitely treat his body well, in addition to the fact that the head of Xiang Shangshang must be sent to the court of the Han Dynasty, he can also be given a generous burial.

This is an unwritten rule, and Zhang Chun believes that Gongsun Xu is a smart person and will never break this rule.

After occupying the southern gate of Xiangping, Gongsun Xu entered the command post where Zhang Chun was located, summoned Qiu Mao, the leader of the fine work, and after making a correct assessment of the city of Xiangping, he began to give orders to his generals in a serious manner.

But those who do not resist will not be killed, the big families in Xiangping City will not break in, and during the war, as long as those who do not come out of the house are considered good citizens.

He told his generals that these words had to be shouted out by the soldiers, and that if they really met the stubborn, they must be punished.

In terms of discipline, people were killed and set on fire for no reason, and looters were beheaded for public display.

They are the righteous division of the Han army, and they have recovered Xiangping City, which was originally the people of the Han Dynasty, and they must do it without committing any crimes.

In Xiangping City, no matter what race people are, they must be treated equally, and they must not directly attack them because of different races, or because they are Wuhuan people on the other side.

After Gongsun continued to issue these orders, he began to let his soldiers slowly advance and began to advance in the direction of the northern city where Qiu Li's residence was responsible.

Gongsun Xu thought in his heart that as long as he could drive Qiu Liju out of Xiangping City, his strategic goal had been achieved.

At this time, Gongsun Xu was not very active in killing Qiu Liju, as long as Qiu Liju knew each other and left the wealth he and Zhang Chun had hoarded, he could even give Qiu Liju a chance to live and let Qiu Liju return to Karasuma.

Gongsun Xu had his new idea, Nanlin and the elite warriors of those tribes stayed in Xiangping, and Qiu Liju took his men and horses to Karasuma's side, even if the leader over there didn't say anything, Qiu Liju's life would not be easy.

Even they will have disagreements and engage in infighting.

If that really happens, it doesn't matter so much whether you kill Qiu Lijuzhen or not.

The main purpose of the court of the Han Dynasty was originally to rebel, and to kill Zhang Chun, the self-proclaimed king of Mitian Anding, could not restart the dispute with the wairong on Wuhuan's side.

These things are the conclusions reached by Gongsun Xu after interrogating Zhang Chun's cronies and Qiu Mao's summary of Xiangping City.

He even thought in his heart that if he really fought to the end with Qiu Liju's tens of thousands of Wuhuan people, Xiangping would be rotten.

For the sake of the complete Xiangping City, for his future strategic purposes, it is normal to let Qiu Liju live at this time, and if he does this, he will also be more able to take Xiangping's Taishou into his hands.

At this time, Qiu Liju, who was remembered by Gongsun Xu, stood on the high platform with a heavy face and said to the Wuhuan people below: "The Wuhuan people have lived in a bitter cold land for generations, and they have to travel long distances every year to find water sources and pastures, and their lives can be described as hard.

However, after all, it is our home, and we Wuhuan people want to return to the place that has been passed down from generation to generation.

It has been a long time for me and Lord Wuyan Sufuyan to return to the Han Dynasty, and we want you to live a stable life of male farmers and female weavers, but in the end, this is not realistic, and there are always a lot of barriers when you come into contact with the Han people.

A few of us feel that our children and grandchildren still have to return to the land where we should live.

Otherwise, we will occupy some of the land of the Han family and establish a country belonging to our Wuhuan people together with Karasuma, so that our people can cultivate the fields if they want, and they can graze if they want.

It is precisely because of such an ideal that I made such a decision with Wuyan and Master Sumuyan.

Unfortunately, we failed, defeated, and failed to achieve the kind of dream we had at the beginning.

Now there are two roads in front of you, one is to surrender the Han army, so that all the efforts made will come to naught. The second is to follow me out of the north gate of Xiangping Castle, return to Karasuma, and live the life we want in our hearts. ”

At this time, Qiu Liju's heart was as calm as water, and he did not lose his square inch because of the loss of the South City Gate.

It is a matter of time before the Han soldiers and horses enter the city, Zhang Chun's side will definitely not be able to stop those Han troops, and the main problem he faces now is whether these people under his command and the two ethnic groups of Wuyan and Sufuyan can be of the same mind as him, and whether they can rush out of Xiangping City under his leadership and run to the territory of Karasuma.

The former glory is gone, and Qiu Liju doesn't know what kind of situation he and these Wuhuan people will face when they flee back to Karasuma, but Qiu Liju still wants to lead these people to escape from Xiangping back to Karasuma.

There is a green grassland over there, which is the natural pasture of their Wuhuan people, as long as they can swear to the death, Qiu Liju has great confidence to lead them back to the grassland.
