Chapter 478: Extinguishing the Broadcast (3)
In Zheng Guobao's Loushan Pass camp, several people in strange costumes and special costumes stood in a row in front of him, and they would be respectful and respectful, and they did not dare to offend in the slightest. These people's martial arts may not be very good, but many heroes would rather offend the heads of the big factions than offend these people. It's just because these people are all elders and protectors of the Five Poisons Sect, and all of them have a great kung fu with poison, as well as the legend, unpredictable, killing people in invisible Gu arts. These things have gone beyond the scope of martial arts, who dares to provoke?
Among the three southwestern provinces, not counting those heroes in the rivers and lakes, even if they are the masters of the Miao people, they are also very polite to the elders of these Five Poison Sects, for fear that if they are not careful, the other party will retaliate against their own tribe, and when the time comes, they will poison a number of livestock and destroy the tribe's water source, and they will be the head of the people. Some of the elders themselves are part-time sorcerers in the tribe, and their status is also self-transcendent, and they belong to the role of being above the top. Back then, Murong Parrot was beaten by these elders, and his nose and face were swollen.
Zheng Guobao is not as afraid of them as the natives here. He even married the former leader of the Five Poisons Sect, and now he is still waiting in Chengdu to give birth to a child, so what else does he not understand about the Five Poisons Sect. They are good at using poison, but they have not yet reached the point where they are colorless and odorless, and they can't prevent it, and whoever they want to kill will definitely die. In fact, if they really had this ability, this Southwest Martial Arts would have been dominated by the Five Poisons Sect long ago. As for that Gu, it was also deliberately rumored how magical it was, in order to attract attention and intimidate the enemy, and the actual effect was far less powerful than in the publicity. The Blue Phoenix Gu King struggled, and the toxicity was indeed strong. But it's just that it's toxic, and it doesn't have any other effects at all. If it is used in battle formation, if it stings a few people, it will be killed. In fact, the Five Poison Sect Masters of the past dynasties rarely used Gu Kings, just knowing that this thing was useless, and it was used to scare people, and it was really used to defeat the enemy and win, but it revealed the details. Lost mystery.
The Five Poisons Sect generally spends a lot of money to hire readers. concocted some mysterious legends of Miao Jiang, and then sent people to spread them around, relying on this kind of boundless horror stories to make people afraid of the Five Poisons Sect. Don't dare to provoke. And this strange power is about the story of God. It is the most popular among the people. Relying on this kind of strange talk of Miao Jiang, it not only attracted tourism resources for the Five Poisons Sect, but also made them famous. No one dares to mess with it, and it kills two birds with one stone.
The craftsmanship of raising Gu herding snakes by the elders of various families is also similar to this Gu King, which is a legendary miraculous skill, and it is only a general debunk. Now that he knows their roots, Zheng Guobao takes them seriously. On the contrary, these elders all respected their uncles, for fear that if one of them accidentally angered this nobleman, their net worth and life would be over.
When Zheng Guobao first used the army, they actively contacted the blue phoenix, but in fact, they didn't make many moves, after all, they didn't dare to make assertions about the victory or defeat of the imperial court and Banzhou, how dare they bet casually. When Loushanguan changed hands and Yang Chaodong was killed, these people began to push all their chips to the side of the imperial court, and decided to be loyal to the imperial court and never waver.
"How many benefits can you bring by this surrender?" Zheng Guobao looked at these elders unhurriedly, "Now that the imperial court army is gathered, it will be able to go straight to the sea dragon hoard in a few days." When the time comes, anyone who follows Yang Yinglong to make trouble will not end well. It seems that it is a little late for you to surrender now, and it seems that it is not too easy to count you as a pre-battle uprising. Of course, I want to see the face of the phoenix, but I also want to talk about this rule. In this official army, I am not the only one who has the final say, don't make me embarrassed. ”
"Qin Cha rest assured, we are sincere this time, and we naturally have something to say." An elder preemptively said: "We have brought all the hibiscus, and we are willing to donate them to the imperial court, without a penny." In the future, we will hand over 100 boxes of hibiscus to the imperial court every year, ensuring that they are of the highest quality and will never be in short supply. ”
Another elder saw that Zheng Guobao was obviously not interested, and took a step forward, "The imperial court wants to implement the policy of changing the land and returning to the river in the southwest, and we have also heard about it. The Miao people in the southwest did not serve the king, but turned into foreign people, who did not understand the law and did not know the law. For several years, I only knew that there was a Miao King, but I didn't know that there was a court. If they change the land here, they will be the biggest resistance. I will wait in the various ministries of Miao Jiang, and I will still be able to say a few words, and when the time comes, I will definitely contribute to the imperial court, try my best to appease the Miao people, and prevent them from breaking the arrangement of the imperial court. ”
"The Miao people have not respected the king, this excuse has been heard many times, and I am really not interested." Zheng Guobao's face became more and more indifferent: "The imperial court has never given up on educating the Miao people, but they themselves refuse the opportunity to be educated. On the one hand, he refused to learn Chinese characters and the legal principles of the Han family, but on the other hand, he used the excuse that he did not respect the king, did whatever he wanted, and even started a country within a country. If there is a conflict, they will act wantonly, and if they get cheap, they will not say anything, and if they suffer losses, they will say that the court is abusing them as outsiders, is there anything more unreasonable in the world? In the future, the imperial court will send Han officials to manage them, so that they can learn the culture of the Han family, be educated by the Han family, learn legal principles, and integrate into the life of the Han people. They themselves have two choices, one is to sincerely belong to the imperial court, organize the households, pay taxes and grain according to the rules, and serve the conscription they should serve, and the other choice is to learn to be in charge of the barbarians, raise an army to rebel, and then kill all those who do not stay. There is no third way to go, the Ming Dynasty has only one court and one system, and they cannot be allowed to do whatever they want by relying on their identity as wilderness people. Over the years, the imperial court has been very tolerant of the Miao people, and they have not even collected much taxes. But what is the reward of the Miao people? King Miao followed Yang Yinglong's rebellion and raised troops, and with shameful betrayal, he had to have the consciousness of facing the court's punishment with the kindness of the court. You can do whatever you want, and then escape the sanction with your identity as a savage, and the days of being a first-class lord and second-class official are gone. Didn't Yang Yinglong inspect the people and horses in Horse Raising City, preparing for a decisive battle with the imperial court? Those Miao people can join in and see what they are capable of, and compete with the economic officials of the imperial court! ”
Several Five Poison Sect elders were frightened into a cold sweat, how could they not have betrayed the Blue Phoenix? If Uncle Guo is angry because of this, where can he bear it? Hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed, "Qin Cha is angry." We will definitely convey the meaning of the Qincha to the heads of the various ministries, so that they can cooperate with the system of the imperial court with peace of mind and dare not offend in the slightest. As for the matter of raising horses, we also specially brought a representative of King Miao today to discuss the plan with Qincha. ”
Kneeling with those elders, there was a thirty-mile, handsome man, who saw Zheng Guobao looking at him, and hurriedly kowtowed, "Hero in Xiamu, pay a salute to Your Excellency Qincha." ”
Zheng Guobao first motioned for him to sit down and speak, and then asked, "Who are you from Miao King Bai Tengjiao?" Are you here today, do you mean what you mean, or what King Miao means, or what Yang Yinglong means? ”
Mu Yingying smiled, "The younger sister below is the side concubine of King Miao, and I can also be the master in the clan." Coming here today is not only the meaning of King Miao, but also the meaning of myself, but there is no intention of Yang Yinglong. We, the Miao people, have been friendly with Banzhou for generations, and we sent troops to help, just for the friendship between friends. But it was not our intention to oppose the great court. Over the years, there have been many conflicts between Han and Miao, also because of the language barrier, different customs, and various misunderstandings. King Miao ordered me to come because he wanted to explain to the Qincha and hope that the Qincha would give us a chance to atone for our sins. As long as the imperial court is willing to recruit King Miao, canonize him as a consolation for the future Banzhou, and promise to stop changing the land and returning to the stream, our tens of thousands of Miao soldiers will withdraw from the battlefield and strictly abide by neutrality. As a token of gratitude, we will send ten buckets of golden sand, one hundred leopard skins, forty large trees, and ten stunning beauties in the clan as a token of appreciation. ”
Zheng Guobao's face sank like water, and his tone was indifferent, "King Miao has been doing so far, is this attitude?" Then you tell King Miao for me, I refuse all of what he said. He can choose to fight to the end, and then be wiped out by me. You can also choose to take the sheep and surrender in our camp. As for the gifts he mentioned, when our army enters his cave, I can take these things myself. (To be continued......)
