Ah Niu stood up and said to Mangzhong and Kaza solemnly:

"There is one thing, because it involves my big secret of Feng Xiang, Ah Niu has been hesitating whether he should keep it with you. Originally, Ah Niu planned to talk to the two of them after returning to Liangzhou and finishing things, but now that the situation has changed, it seems that he has to say it clearly. No matter how Mangzhong and Kaza feel, Ah Niu only hopes that you can keep this secret for me before everyone knows about it! ”

Kazahu also stood up at once, and said to a certain city lord:

"Ah Niu said this to see the outside, we are friends, if you have anything to say, it doesn't hurt to say it. If there's a place where Kaza can help, I won't say no! ”

A certain city lord didn't speak, just nodded to Kaza, and then turned his gaze to Mangzhong.

Mangzhong took a deep breath, as the leader of Burning Dangqiang, Mangzhong could not express his position without scruples like Kaza, and after linking Ah Niu's table just now, Mangzhong had vaguely guessed some situations. Obviously, what a certain city lord is going to talk about next must be inseparable from the secret path of the Eight Treasure Valley.

If you put aside Mangzhong's identity in the clan, this Qiang leader will not hesitate like Kaza at this time, but unfortunately "if" is "if" after all.

Raising his head and staring straight at a certain city lord, Mang Zhong said:

"Ah Niu is kind to us."

"Let's not." A certain city lord sighed.

"Kaza and I are brothers who grew up together, and we are like brothers. Privately, Kaza and I have also communicated, and we both think that Ah Niu is a good friend, and we have been friends so far. ”

"Hmm." A certain city lord was still laughing, but he was already laughing quite reluctantly, and from the way Mangzhong spoke, Ah Niu vaguely felt that something was wrong.

"As the leader of Burning Dangqiang, I should not refuse to help Ah Niu in public or private. But burning when the Qiang is only an ethnic group of the Qiang people, and I am a Qiang person in Mangzhong, can Ah Niu understand? "The stricter the complexion of Mangzhong.

Mangzhong's meaning is already very obvious, no matter how much favor Ah Niu has for Dangqiang, or how good the personal relationship between the two is, if Ah Niu proposes to betray the Qiang people in Mangzhong, it is absolutely impossible to accept. Mangzhong and the Burning Dangqiang he led will never betray the Qiang people to help the Han people, even if Ah Niu is their benefactor and friend!

At this time, Kaza reacted, and his heart was irritable, the answer just now seemed to be a little inconsiderate, Kaza was already thinking about how to deal with it if Ah Niu made some "non-share" requests. As the first warrior of burning, Kaza is not afraid that Ah Niu will ask for money, goods and even life, but he is afraid that Ah Niu will force himself to do something sorry for all the Qiang people.

"Ah Niu understands, so ......"

A certain city lord glanced at Mangzhong with interest, and said with an indifferent smile:

"So I never thought that you would ignore the interests of the Qiang people, nor did I think that you would become sinners of all the Qiang people, let alone get involved in the struggle between the Qiang people and the Han people. Last night, when we were drinking at the camp, Ah Niu had already made his attitude clear. ”

Mangzhong was stunned and blurted out: "Isn't the thing Ah Niu wants to talk about related to the secret path of the Eight Treasure Valley?" ”

In Mangzhong's opinion, the reason why Ah Niu's expression suddenly changed must be related to the secret path of the Eight Treasure Valley. Although a certain city lord claims to have "no hostility towards the Qiang people", such a secret road that may affect the situation in Liangzhou is extremely important to both the Han and Qiang people, Ah Niu seems to be very interested in this secret road, why would a lord of Qingzhou be so concerned about Babao Valley? The answer seems obvious.

Ah Niu shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Unfortunately, you said it, this matter is related to Babao Valley, because the Longfei Town outside Babao Valley is the special territory of my Fengxiang City." That's why I had to get involved in this matter. ”

Objectively speaking, the lethality of this sentence is very amazing, Mangzhong and Kaza stared at each other, and what Ah Niu told seemed to be a little out of their understanding. Fortunately, a certain city lord did not let Burning Dangqiang betray the Qiang people, which made Mangzhong people surprised, and involuntarily began to think about how to help Ah Niu get out of this predicament.

"Ah Niu came to Liangzhou this time, it was to go to Longfei Town to check the situation, but after going around in the mountains for a few days, he ran to the Qiang land. Before that, I didn't know that the location where Longfei Town was established was outside the Babao Valley, if it weren't for listening to Mangzhong talk about Longfei Town just now, Ah Niu wouldn't have known that there was such a secret road connecting the Qiang people and the Han people in my special territory. That's how it happened. ”

After Ah Niu told the story of the secret as it was, Kaza cried out in unimaginability, and Mangzhong fell into deep thought again.

"No wonder Ah Niu became so strange after knowing that the stronghold outside the Eight Treasure Valley was Longfei Town. What is Ah Niu going to do now? Can special territories be rebuilt? Kaza said.

A certain city lord shrugged his shoulders and said, "If it can be rebuilt, I don't need to worry so much." The role of the special territory must also be clear to you, Longfei Town is related to the future exhibition of my Fengxiang City, unless it is absolutely necessary, it is impossible for me to give up Longfei Town! ”

"But that little township can't hold it at all, and there will be no other result than more sacrifices. Now the strength of Sister Qiang is far above our burning Dangqiang, if we attack with all our might, it will take less than half a day, and Longfei Town will be completely destroyed! Kaza said urgently.

"I know that if you want to keep Longfei Town, Ah Niu must get your help!"

"As Qiang people, we will not help Feng Xiang to guard Longfei Town and make enemies of other Qiang people! Besides, with our strength of burning Dangqiang, even if we join the war, we may not be able to block the attack of Sister Qiang, even if we block Sister Qiang, there are other ethnic groups. And in doing so, he has actually betrayed all the Qiang people. ”

Kaza said gloomily.

"Ah Niu, give up Longfei Town. Since you can get the special territory construction blueprint in the Yellow Turban Battle, it is also possible to get such a reward in the future, if you are determined to build a city in Liangzhou, it is a big deal to choose a good place in the future, we will burn Dangqiang even if you smash the pot and sell iron, we will also fund you a batch of livestock, cattle and sheep. Mangzhong also persuaded.

Ah Niu paced back and forth in the tent for a long time, and suddenly smiled: "Hehe, I have good intentions." However, I have a plan, it is possible that while protecting Longfei Town, it can also make the burning of Qiang also be quickly expanded, and benefit the vast number of Qiang people. If you are lucky, you can also teach Sister Qiang a good lesson by the way, so as not to cause trouble in the Qiang area again. Again, the premise of this plan is that you must cooperate, otherwise I will go back to Qingzhou tomorrow without saying anything. ”

One stone stirred up a thousand waves, and the tricks of a certain city lord successfully attracted the attention of Mangzhong and Kaza. Under such circumstances, Ah Niu seemed to have no possibility of keeping Longfei Town, let alone helping to burn Dang Qiang Zhan, and even fighting Prison Sister Qiang.

The curiosity in Mangzhong and Kaza's hearts was incomprehensible, and after confirming to Ah Niu again that "he would not betray Qiang and become a sinner of the Qiang people", Mangzhong quickly decided to become an "accomplice" of a certain city lord.

-- In fact, a certain city lord claimed to be able to help Shaodangqiang rejuvenate, which was the key to Mangzhong's decision.

"The Qiang people have fought (rebelled) in the Hexi Corridor no less than ten times, but they have never won a victory, and the previous war in Liangzhou caused many Qiang tribes to suffer heavy losses. Ah Niu thought that what the Qiang people needed most at this time was not a meaningless local revenge, but a recuperation and accumulation of strength, so that they could quickly recover from defeat, improve the living conditions of the Qiang people, and even prepare for the next wave of all-out war. Mangzhong thinks it's right? ”

Seeing Mangzhong nodding silently, Ah Niu continued:

"The existence of the secret road of the Eight Treasure Valley made many Qiang people think that they could use that secret road to fight back more fiercely against the Han people in Liangzhou, but in fact, it was not. The Qiang people, who had just suffered a painful defeat, had lost the strength to confront the Han Dynasty head-on, and even Han Sui, Ma Teng and others, even if they had gained a local advantage by virtue of the secret path in the early stage, this advantage would inevitably disappear quickly in the long-term confrontation. The direct result is twofold:

1. The Qiang people failed again, which made matters worse.

2. The secret passage was revealed, and the Qiang people not only could no longer sneak into Liangzhou from the secret passage, but they needed to worry about the Han people using the secret passage to sneak into the territory of the Qiang people.

In this way, the secret path of the Eight Treasure Valley has actually become a failure to hinder the revival of the Qiang people, and it is precisely because of this secret path that the Qiang people's lying salary and courage are bound to be postponed for several years, and more Qiang warriors will die in Liangzhou! From this point of view, should the Eight Treasure Valley Secret Path continue to exist? ”

Speaking of which, a certain city lord's tone turned cold, and he looked at Mangzhong and Kaza coldly.

Mangzhong can be a person of great wisdom, that possibility does exist, although Ah Niu's words are for the ultimate goal of preserving Longfei Town, but it is not unreasonable, Mangzhong can only continue to nod.

Only now do I understand what a certain city lord is about the so-called "benefiting the vast number of Qiang ethnic groups", and he has been playing a trick for a long time: peace.

This trick is used on Mangzhong's body, but it has a very good effect. (To be continued)
