Chapter 341: The Secret Path
"Eight Treasure Valley...... It's just that the valley is blocked, and it needs to alarm so many Qiang people? ”
A certain city lord has not been to Longfei Town, and he doesn't know that behind Longfei Town is Babao Valley, and the situation of the special territory can be seen in the city lord's manual, but this information obviously does not include the surrounding terrain and environment.
If this guy knew that this meeting convened by King Qiang meant that Longfei Town was facing a great crisis, I don't know if he could still be so calm. It's a pity that Ah Niu, who didn't know anything about this, not only didn't rush at this time, but asked about the situation with great interest.
Kaza hesitated for a moment, but finally said:
"Ah Niu doesn't know, although Babao Valley is just an abandoned valley, in terms of topography, it has incomparable importance! Since the war in Liangzhou began a few years ago, Han Sui, Ma Teng and others and the army of the Han Dynasty have been on guard against our Qiang people, and the Han people have guarded and monitored the various communication arteries between Liangzhou and the Qiang people's territory. Therefore, our Qiang king decided to use a secret passage connecting the Qiang and Han territories in the next operation, but now the periphery of this secret passage is blocked. ”
"What does Kaza mean that the exit of that secret passage is in the Eight Treasure Valley?" A certain city lord immediately understood the key.
The main roads of the Qiang attack on Liangzhou were guarded by Han NPC troops, which made it difficult for the Qiang to retaliate by surprise, so the Qiang king decided to use the secret passage to infiltrate Liangzhou in the next operation, so as to deal a fatal blow to the Han forces. It's a pity that a stronghold suddenly appeared at the exit of the secret passage, which makes it difficult for the Qiang people not to wonder: has the matter of the secret passage been discovered by the Han people? Is the small stronghold outside the Eight Treasures Valley just a trap?
If this is the case, not only will it be difficult for the Qiang people to use the secret passage for their next attack, but they will also have to beware of the Han people using the secret passage to sneak into the territory of the Qiang people!
"Exactly. It was only a few days ago that news came back that a stronghold had suddenly appeared outside Babao Valley, and by the time it was now, it had reached the scale of a first-class township. That territory seemed vulnerable to us, but the matter related to the secret passage, the situation was a little more complicated, so the king of Qiang would not long after the last wave of operations ended, and now he gathered the leaders of the various clans. Ah Niu's territory is not in Liangzhou, I will tell the truth about this matter, and I hope that Ah Niu must not leak out, the matter of the secret passage is a big secret among our Qiang people, if Ah Niu makes everyone know, even if Kaza commits suicide, it is not enough to apologize! Kaza said solemnly.
A certain city lord hurriedly said solemnly: "Don't worry, Kaza, Ah Niu will never go out to talk nonsense about this secret road." The struggle between the Qiang people and the Han people in Liangzhou, as long as it does not involve the interests of my Fengxiang, no matter who wins or loses, there is no difference. ”
Only then did Kaza put his mind at ease, secretly thinking that if he hadn't learned about Ah Niu's mentality when he was drinking last night, he would definitely not have told a certain city lord about the secret path just now. Kaza naturally didn't know that the mysterious stronghold outside the Eight Treasure Valley was Fengxiang's special territory, Longfei Town!
In fact, the secret passage was not carved by hand, but was a masterpiece of nature.
To the south of Longfei Town is the continuous mountains, and behind the mountains is the territory of the Qiang people. The mountain road is steep and difficult to travel, and under normal circumstances, it is unlikely that the Qiang people will directly cross the mountains and enter the territory of the Han people, and the passage of large troops is even more delusional. But decades ago, the Qiang people found a secret passage, and after traveling more than 20 miles through the mountain crevices, they could successfully cross the mountains and quietly enter Liangzhou.
Due to the large size of the secret Daozi, not many people among the Qiang people knew about it, and kept this secret strictly. Even when the war in Liangzhou was tense, the Qiang people only used this secret passage occasionally, but did not use it on a large scale, and the secret passage was also cleverly camouflaged at the exit of Babao Valley, if it was not a master of the mechanism, it would be difficult to exit the secret passage!
When Mangzhong first went to the meeting, a certain city lord also thought about returning to Jincheng directly overnight, but he had to stop under the advice of Kaza.
"It's Shenshi soon, even if you hurry up, it will be difficult to reach Jincheng before dark, Ah Niu still rest here for a while, and I will personally send you there tomorrow. After Mangzhong attended the meeting of the king of Qiang, he would definitely not be able to go back tonight, so we drank wine for another night in the camp where we were frying. ”
In this way, of course, Ah Niu had to wait patiently for the meeting to be finished.
The Qiang King's Conference began at the time of Shen and did not end until the time of the Qiang, except for a few leaders who were closer to the Dangqiang camp, the vast majority of the leaders chose to stay here overnight and leave tomorrow. And the leader of Dangqiang was also very hospitable, and gave warm hospitality to all the guests, and served wine and roast sheep as if they didn't want money.
A certain city lord originally hoped to see the king of Qiang, but the world was unsatisfactory ** out of ten, from beginning to end, the king of Qiang did not come out of the tent, and the food and drink were carried out in the tent. The outside of the tent was heavily guarded, and it was impossible to sneak in, which also made Ah Niu quite excited.
Those leaders who choose to stay overnight in the Dangqiang camp mostly take advantage of this rare opportunity to drink and chat with the leaders of other ethnic groups, and many cooperation matters are negotiated in such an atmosphere. Mangzhong, as the leader of the Qiang people, naturally did not miss this opportunity, and stayed with other ethnic leaders for a long time before returning to the temporary camp.
"Mangzhongling, the last time I was born in the battle in Liangzhou, if it weren't for your clan's Kaza, who personally led the 5oo burning warriors to defend Yingtan Road for four hours, it would be impossible for our first Lingqiang clansmen to escape from the poisonous hands of Han Suijun, and Xian Lingqiang would probably be wiped out. On behalf of all the ancestors, I, Gu Dan, thank you for the great kindness of the Dangqiang brothers. ”
A short and fat middle-aged man was full of gratitude, and bowed deeply to Mangzhong and Kaza, and a certain city lord guessed from the conversation of Gu Dan just now that this person was the new leader of Xian Lingqiang.
Sure enough, Mangzhong and Kaza hurriedly got up and saluted back, and Mangzhong sighed: "Gu Danling doesn't need to be so polite, Xian Lingqiang raised the banner of fighting against the Han people and took a great risk. At that time, Xian Lingqiang was chased by Han Sui and others, and was about to face the danger of extermination, and we only helped to block the chasing soldiers for a few hours, but unfortunately in the end, our Qiang people were defeated, and countless warriors stained Liangzhou with blood, and did not achieve the expected goal. ”
When Kazha led the army to hold on to Yingtan Road, if it was just to cover the remnants of the more than 3,000 warriors of Dangqiang, it would be more than enough to hold on for half an hour, where would it be necessary to defend for four hours! In fact, it was precisely to cover the retreat of the remnants of Xian Lingqiang that the five hundred burns were killed in a foreign land.
In fact, even if he wants to annex the Qiang people's land dispute, he also has a lot of respect for the selflessness of the Qiang people, but respect is respect, and when it comes to the interests of the ethnic group, the land dispute will definitely not be soft. If it weren't for the fear that the attack on Dangqiang for no reason would be attacked by the Qiang people, the strong prison sister Qiang would have already started.
"I heard that last night Tu Zheng took people to the settlement of Shaodangqiang to provoke, but is there such a thing?"
Gu Dan asked in a deep voice, and when he saw Mangzhong nodding silently, Gu Dan immediately left the ground angry.
"Sister Qiang on the dog day, in front of our first Ling Qiang and Burning Dangqiang, she was as well-behaved as a little sheep, I remember that when Beigong Ling was alive in the past, she gave Sister Qiang a lot of help, and it was also kind to them. Now seeing that our strength was greatly damaged in the battle, this unfed wolf immediately turned his face and denied people, and sent people to discuss with me several times, saying that he wanted to protect us first, but in fact, he wanted to complete the annexation! Now he is actually bullied to the head of Dangqiang, which is shameless to the extreme! ”
Gu Dan was so angry, naturally it was not for nothing.
Xian Lingqiang under the leadership of Beigong Boyu was also strong for a while, otherwise it would be impossible to rebel against the Eastern Han Dynasty, and it would be impossible for so many Qiang ethnic groups to draw their swords to help. Before the Liangzhou War began, Sister Qiang was only in the middle and lower ranks among the many Qiang ethnic groups, but after the Liangzhou War, under the advantages of one another, Sister Qiang, who was wise and self-preserving, became a strong person in the Qiang ethnic group, and did not want to let go of her former benefactors.
"Gu Danling doesn't need to be angry, it's not worth it to be angry with someone like that, in fact, it can't be said that it's wrong to fight like that, it's just that the means are a little shameful. We have to guard against Sister Qiang, since Sister Qiang has now raised her hand to the heads of our two ethnic groups, we have to make a case to King Qiang, and take precautions as soon as possible, if Gu Danling has no opinion, we will go to King Qiang later. Mangzhong sighed.
Gu Dan nodded silently, obviously aware of the threat that Prison Sister Qiang posed to the clan.
"In this way, like our two races, there are not a few ethnic groups that have suffered huge losses in the war with the Han Chinese, and some ethnic groups are even inferior to us in strength at present. I first Lingqiang is the initiator of the war in Liangzhou, and the burning of Dangqiang in Liangzhou is obvious to all, in this case, Sister Qiang actually does not dare to launch a full-scale attack on us, so as not to be criticized by all Qiang people. But other disadvantaged groups are not necessarily so lucky, and in my opinion, it is likely that the local struggle will also take action against other groups. Taking advantage of the fact that many leaders are here now, I will learn more about the situation now, and when I talk to King Qiang together tomorrow, the momentum will be louder. ”
Mangzhong nodded in agreement, and Gu Dan took his leave. (To be continued)
