Sitting upright in the tent, Ma Dai once again arched his fist at Fu Zhi and said: "General Hui, the number of Qiang people is less than 20,000, stationed in the Dragon Bone Mountain, lacking armor, grain and grass, and now they are waiting for our army to arrive with food. If the grain and grass arrive for a long time, I am afraid that it will not take two days, and they will leave the Dragon Bone Mountain! ”

"Leaving Dragon Bone Mountain, we only need to put a fire on the halfway road, can we burn them clean?" Smiling slightly, he asked Ma Dai and Pang De in frustration: "If our army kills all these Qiang people, will the Qiang people be shocked by the might of our army in the future and dare not make trouble again?" ”

The words of frustration just confirmed the speculation of Pound and Ma Dai.

Both of them were stunned, and Ma Dai hurriedly clenched his fists and said to Fu Zhu: "General, the last general thinks that it is not a good strategy to drive out the Qiang people!" ”

"Oh?" His brows furrowed slightly, and he asked Ma Dai in frustration, "How is it not a good policy?" ”

"The general doesn't know, I've been waiting here in Xiliang for many years, and I have a lot of contact with the Qiang people!" Putting down the fists he had picked up, Ma Dai said to Fu Zhu: "It's not the first time that the Qiang people have made trouble. It's just that they make trouble, although they attack the Han people a lot, but they rarely hurt people's lives, just grab some grain and grass goods, and then they will withdraw. Our army's encirclement and suppression of the Qiang people is also to kill less and never kill more, only the first evildoer, and for the rest of the Qiang people, they will be reprimanded and all put back ......"

"What General Ma said is true!" Smiling slightly, he waved his hand at Ma Dai and said, "It's just that the general may not know His Majesty's temperament!" ”

Frustrated Zhu mentioned Liu Wei, Ma Dai and Pang De were stunned, the two glanced at each other, Pang De hugged his fists and asked: "What kind of temperament is Your Majesty, I hope the general will tell me!" ”

"Your Majesty loves the people like a son!" Looking at Ma Dai and Pang De, he said to them: "No matter the officials, the rich businessmen, but anyone who relies on the strong and bullies the weak, when they get to His Majesty, it is a dead end. For this reason, when His Majesty was the king of Qin, he purged the officials of Qin, and thousands of people were killed! Can the two generals know why His Majesty is like this? ”

"It must be the local officials who oppress the good!" After thinking about it for a while, Ma Dai first responded, and then asked Fu Zhu: "But what does this matter have to do with the extermination of the Qiang people?" ”

"The two of you don't know about the killing of officials by Your Majesty back then, they must know about the Huns." With a smile on his face, he said to Ma Dai and Pang De: "The Xiongnu took advantage of the chaos in the Central Plains, raised troops and rushed to the Central Plains, burning and looting all the way. After the surrender of the Xiongnu, there was internal chaos, and the kings of all walks of life fought against each other, and His Majesty took the opportunity to move the Xiongnu to the Central Plains and mixed with the Central Plains. Although they are not young now, the Huns have long lost their brutality, and they can plant rice and grain with peace of mind, and they have long been assimilated by the Han people with silkworms and hemp. I don't know what should happen if you can see such a dead race? ”

Asked by this question, Pound and Ma Dai both lowered their heads, and their brows were tightly locked.

Liu Wei's strategy against the Huns was not to kill all the Huns, but to move them to the Central Plains and live with the Han Chinese.

Over the years, the Huns and the Han intermarried with each other, and before the huge number of Han Chinese, the poor Huns, who were so small in number, would sooner or later be completely assimilated.

This method is more effective than killing all the Huns.

The two of them lowered their heads, wondering in their hearts whether they would do the same to the Qiang people.

Seeing that the two of them were silent, he smiled slightly and said, "The two generals, can you feel that such means as Your Majesty are the foundation of Kuang Zheng's great man?" ”

"General!" Ma Dai raised his head, looked at each other and said, "If we do the same to the Qiang people, Xiliang will not have much ...... population."

"The Qiang people are nomadic and miserable!" With a smile on the corner of his mouth, he said to Ma Dai in frustration: "And compared with the Xiongnu, the Qiang people are also much more tame, and this general is really unwilling to kill more!" We can follow His Majesty's method, after defeating the Qiang people, force them to live with the Han people, and ask them to cultivate the wasteland, so that they will live a stable life, and they will no longer cause trouble! ”

"General Ma and Han Sui also thought of this method in their early years!" Before the words fell, Pang De said: "It's just that the Qiang people are stupid, no matter what, they can't teach them to reclaim wasteland and plant grain and grass!" ”

Brushing the beard on his chin, he nodded and said, "General Pang said, and I know it." But no matter how stupid the Qiang people are, there are Han people mixed in, and they can be taught in the future! In the past, the methods used by the two generals Ma Teng and Han Sui were also studied. They divided the Qiang people into small tribes, settled them in a certain place, and distributed them to the Qiang people's fields. The Qiang people are originally a nomadic tribe, how can they grow grain and grass? ”

What he said was not unreasonable.

Ma Dai and Pang De listened, although they still had some doubts in their hearts, but they did not ask again.

It's just that I thought that the strategy to be adopted by Fu Zhu was to completely integrate the Qiang people, and there might be no Qiang people in the entire Xiliang in the future, and the two of them were a little faintly unbearable.

"General, the Qiang people are not heinous!" After hesitating for a moment, Ma Dai said, "Can you leave them a way to live?" With them, it is difficult to enter this Xiliang field! ”

"There is a saying!" Smiling slightly, he said to Ma Dai: "If you are not from my race, your heart will be different!" What is given to them is a way to live, but it is just to make them Han Chinese! Since they have all become Han people, in the face of foreign enemies, they will definitely work with the court with one heart and one mind, and will not secretly make harm to the court! ”

From the frustrated words, it was clear that he had made up his mind, Pang De and Ma Dai didn't say anything more, they got up together, arched their fists at him and said, "The last general will obey the general's order!" ”

He waved his hand at the two of them, but he didn't say anything more, and as they turned to walk out of the tent, he had already lowered his head to look at the map on the table.

Led less than 20,000 horses and stationed in the Dragon Bone Mountain, Beigong Xin waited for two or three days, and did not wait for the news that Ma Dai sent back.

Feeling that something was wrong in his heart, he sent some more scouts, asking them to go farther away to find out the movements of the Xiliang army.

A day later, the scouts finally brought back the news, and the Xiliang army, which was escorting the grain and grass, not only did not continue to advance, but returned the same way and sent the grain and grass back.

Knowing that the grain and grass were sent back by the Xiliang Army again, Beigong Xin knew that he had done a bad job this time.

Standing up suddenly, the muscles on his cheeks twitched violently twice, and Beigong Xin shouted to a group of big leaders beside him: "The Han people are really treacherous, that Ma Dai said that he wanted to ask for grain and grass for us, but he never returned, and the Han people sent the grain and grass back." If we don't fight them, how will they know that we are great? ”

After this shout, Beigong Xin shouted at a Qiang man who was carrying him: "Lead the horse here!" ”

When he shouted to the people, the Qiang people in the Dragon Bone Mountain all knew that they were leaving here and going to make trouble with the Xiliang army.

For many years, the Qiang people had a lot of trouble with the Han army stationed in Xiliang, but each time it ended in their defeat.

This time, the Qiang didn't think they would win the final victory, and even if they did, they didn't know what to do in the future!

They have only one purpose, to cause some trouble for the Xiliang army and the Han people who settled in Xiliang, and to let the Han people know that the Qiang people can't survive, so they will drag them into the water together!

Turning over on the war horse, Beigong Xinchao looked around and found that the Qiang people stationed here had also been on horseback.

Everyone was ready, and he didn't delay much, raised his arm and shouted: "Follow me out of the valley and grab more grain, grass, and wealth from the Xiliang army and the Han people!" ”

"Kill!" With Beigong Xin's shout, nearly 20,000 Qiang people also shouted in unison, followed him, and rode their horses into the valley.

Although the valley is very narrow, it is very narrow and long, nearly 20,000 Qiang people all rushed into the valley, and Beigong Xin, who walked in the front, was still not a short distance away from the exit of the valley!

Rushing into the valley and leading the men and horses to gallop, Beigong Xin suddenly found that on the cliff in front of him, countless huge logs suddenly rolled down.

The logs were all freshly cut trees, and many of them were still green, and it was clear that the fellers had not deliberately cut them evenly.

Countless logs suddenly fell in front of him, and Beigong Xin hurriedly restrained the war horse.

Before he could understand what had happened, there was a sudden chaos at the back of the line.

The Qiang people who followed behind were in a hurry, and Beigong Xin hurriedly turned around and shouted to a big leader behind him: "What's the chaos in the rear?" ”

"Oh no, Grand Chief!" As soon as Beigong Xin's question ended, a big boss raised his hand and pointed to the rear, and shouted with a panicked expression: "The back seems to be on fire!" ”

Hearing the shouts of the big leader, Beigong Xin stretched his neck to look back, and sure enough, he found that where they had just rushed over, there were already bursts of fire.

Seeing the flames rising up, Beigong knew that it was not good, and hurriedly shouted: "Listen to my orders and rush out of the valley!" ”

With this shout, he was the first to ride his horse and leap towards the piles of timber in front of him.

The Qiang people behind were about to catch up, when countless burning logs suddenly fell from the top of the cliff.

The rolling log fell into the valley and smashed the Qiang people and their horses to the ground.

Countless burning logs fell like raindrops, smashing the Qiang people with ghosts crying wolf howls, and those who did not drop their war horses carried the reins and turned their heads everywhere to find a breakthrough point and rushed out.

And those Qiang people who were smashed on the horseback, the dead were lying quietly, letting the messy horses' hooves trample on their bodies, and those who were still alive let out a terrible howl, struggling to get up in fear, and escape from the chaos of people and horses everywhere.

Riding a war horse, he rushed towards the piece of wood blocking the way, and Beigong Xin was about to crash out, but at this time, countless rockets fell on the cliff, falling towards him and the Qiang people in the valley.
