Chapter 32: Qiu Chi 4

Wen destroyed Shu, his prestige was greatly enhanced, and the court was afraid of it. Huiji Wang Yu is famous for Yangzhou Thorn Shi Yin Hao, and the government and the opposition are subdued, which is cited as a heart, and the power of the comprehensive court, wanting to resist temperature, so it is suspicious of Wen Sleep. Hao is famous for the long history of Xun Xian in the north and Wang Xizhi of the former Jiangzhou Assassin History, and he is promoted to the history of Wu Province, and Xi Zhi is the general of the army, thinking that he is a wing. Envy, the brother of Rui; Xizhi, the guide is also from the son. Xi Zhi thought that it was internal and external harmony, and then the country could be safe, and persuaded Hao and Envy not to form a gap with Wen, and Hao did not obey.

------------------ Introduction

Jiang Nan didn't know what bad idea Zeng Hua, who was listening to the "fascination" on the other side, he just tried his best to scavenge all the knowledge of the Qiang people that he had obtained from his father and the most knowledgeable old man in his subordinates. Although he felt that what the "Liangzhou Thorn History" in front of him did and asked was "not profound", it was rare for him to trust himself so much, of course Jiang Nan had to tell it. After all, Jiang Nan is a man with clear grievances.

"The wolf Qiang is mainly scattered in Wudu and Yinping counties, and lives together with the Di people, and is divided into branches. The eastern branch is especially rich in the Baishui River, so it is also called Baishuiqiang, with hundreds of tribes and tens of thousands of tribes. The west branch is the Tangchang Qiang, scattered in the west of Qiuchi, the east of the Tao River, the north of Baishui, the south of Weishui, with the city of Tangchang (now the west of Danchang County, Gansu Province) as the center, thousands of miles from east to west, south of Xishui, 800 miles from north to south, the land is mountainous, more than 1,000 people, more than 10,000 mouths. The former Qiu Chi Wang Yang Nandang surrendered to him, and his brother Baozong was the general of Zhennan, and the town was Chang. Since then, Tangchang Qiang and Baishui Qiang have all attached themselves to the enemy's pool. ”

"Baimaqiang originally lived in the source of the river (now Minjiang) in Wenshan County, and then raised troops in the former Shu Han Dynasty, and was successively conscripted by its general Jiang Wei, Annan general Ma Zhong, general Zhang Wei, etc., one was moved south to Yizhou, one lived in place, and the other moved north, and later took Angcheng as the center, north to Xiqiang Mountain (now Xiqing Mountain) south, south to Mushui (now Dadu River), east to Longgan (now Songpan County, Sichuan Province), Wenshan County, west to Dayan Kala Mountain. There are thousands of tribes and more than 100,000 tribes. ”

This kid told Bai Maqiang in the most detail, and it deserves to be his hometown. After listening to this, Zeng Hua asked with a smile: "Jiang Nan, your home is originally in Angcheng, what does it have to do with this White Horse Qiang?" ”

Jiang Nan was stunned in his heart, he knew just now that this adult wanted to talk about the Qiang people for another purpose, and now he began to expose his true face of "greed". But Jiang Nan didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly replied: "My ancestors were promoted as chieftains by more than 1,000 tribes of Baimaqiang in the last generation. ”

Zeng Hua nodded, lowered his head and was silent for a while, and then raised his head and asked, "How do the Qiang people generally live and how do they fight?" ”

"The Qiang people mainly live in two types: earthen houses and tents. The earthen house is made of cow wool and mud, covered with roof; The tabernacle is made of furs. Good at animal husbandry and farming, animal husbandry is divided into two types: nomadic and sedentary animal husbandry. The Qiang people wear their hair on the left, and the women wear Dahua felt, thinking that they are ornaments, and can make their own armor, crossbows, knives, spears, war flags, daggers and other weapons. ”

Jiang Nan glanced at Zeng Hua, and then tried to find the right words and sentences to continue to introduce: "The Qiang people usually raise livestock and farm, and they fight in wartime. Many cavalry, hundreds of people travel a day, come like wind and rain, go like a string, brave and impermanent. It grows in the valley, is shorter than the flat land, and cannot last, but the fruit is an assault, and the death in battle is auspicious, and the end of illness is ominous. ”

Zeng Hua couldn't help but be overjoyed when he heard this, staring at Jiang Nan as if he was seeing a baby, and seeing Jiang Nan's heart flutter.

"I heard that after Natuyuhun occupied the West Sea, he continued to annex the Qiang tribes, could it be that there are also Qiang people there?" Seeing that Jiang Nan's face was wrong, Zeng Hua knew that his "greed" scared Jiang Nan, so he hurriedly changed the topic.

When it came to Tuyuhun, Jiang Nan couldn't help gritting his teeth and said hatefully: "I heard the elders say that the Qiang people originally originated from the Xihai River, and the ancestors called Wuyi Sword, and their descendants were divided into a total of one hundred and fifty kinds, and then scattered all over the east, south, and west. Since the former Han Dynasty, there have been Xianling, Yaodang, Sister Le, Dangfang, Dang, Khotan, Fengyang, Sister Lei, Sister Gang, Beinan, Hunu, Wuwu, Zhongcun, Gongtang, and Freeze, Fu Nan and other departments have successively moved to Anding, Beidi, Shangjun, Xihe, Hanyang, Anding, Longxi Counties, and even as far as Guanzhong, Bingzhou and Sizhou. These tribes and the Wolf Qiang, the Yak Qiang, and the Tsing Yi Qiang are all Dongqiang, and the people are incalculable. ”

"Around the West Sea and the river and the grass is beautiful, there are dozens of Wuyi sword branches such as Beihe Qiang and Chongqiang, tens of thousands of people, all of which are now attached to Tuyuhun. There is Bailanqiang in the west of the West Sea, which is close to my Baimaqiang, and has a close relationship, with more than 10,000 people, and it is said that it has also succumbed to the power of Tuyuhun. Further west, there are Baimaqiang Yuanzhi and Xiqiang, Huangniuqiang, and the department number Xiye, Puli, dependence, and thunder, etc., and there are countless people; Xihai County, Liangzhou in the north of the West Sea (now Ejina Banner in the west of the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region) has wax Qiang gathering, and continuous Jiuquan, Qilian Mountain, since the former Han Dynasty lived between the Xiongnu and Hexi, another branch. ”

"There are thousands of tribes in the east of Xihai and Bailan, west of Baimaqiang, north to the source of the river (the source of the Yellow River), and south to Na'e (now the source of the three rivers, eastern Tibet). Each surname is a tribe, the big one rides more than a thousand, the small one rides more than 100 rides, the vulgar is still martial, unable to order, and each takes nomadism as a livelihood. If there is a battle array, they will gather together, and there will be no endowment and no contact. Shepherding the Qin, cattle, sheep, and pigs for food, and not knowing the crops, they are all the wild Qiang people left over from the first Han and Qiang people after attaching Longxi and Longnan. The Qiang people and the former Baima Qiang all lived outside the Saiwai, commonly known as Xiqiang! ”

When Zeng Hua heard this, he crashed at that time. He doesn't care what Xiqiang, Dongqiang, Zeng Hua does, he only remembers the party members!

The party item person is the party item person who occupies Hexi and Ningxia and has the national name Xia? I heard that it is also a nation that is brave in riding and archery. Now he is actually a savage in the southern part of Qinghai and the northern and eastern parts of Tibet. No way! Zeng Hua was a little crazy, and he couldn't wait to kill Yang Chu immediately, and then send troops to the West Sea.

Seeing this Liangzhou Thorn Shi scratching his ears and cheeks in front of him, Jiang Nan faintly felt something, and only felt that this adult's mind was probably bigger than he imagined. Thinking of the conversation when Nan Zheng and Zeng Hua met, he couldn't help but ask: "My lord, have you been planning to attack Wudu for a long time?" Was the falling out with Yang Chu's envoy this time also deliberately planned by you? ”

Seeing Jiang Nan's question so directly, Duan, Zhao and the others next to him couldn't help but show a slightly disgusted look. Who are you? Dare to ask our thorn history directly!

Zeng Hua didn't think so, walked up, patted Jiang Nan's shoulder affectionately and said: "Soon after I arrived in Liangzhou, I thought about where to get some cavalry back, and it was a great loss to have no cavalry to fight in this northern plain. Who called this Qiu Chi to rely on me on the edge of Liangzhou, and there are many Qiang and Di people in the jurisdiction, and they are good at cavalry, who do I want if I don't look for him? ”

Seeing Zeng Hua act so intimately and answer so frankly, Jiang Nan's heart couldn't help but feel hot, although he knew that Zeng Hua had "other intentions" for himself, but he couldn't help but be moved in his heart when he was so convinced that his Qiang "slave" was his own person.

"But to be honest, the expulsion of Yang Chu's envoy was not deliberately arranged by me. I didn't expect that Yang Chu would send an envoy through Liangzhou to go to the court. When I received Yang Chu's envoy, I was going to send someone to pretend to be a thief on the road to make Qiu Chi's envoy, and then engage in a war of words with Qiu Chi, and finally Chen Bing met to attract his troops to the Eastern Front, and then carried out our current plan. Anyway, I won't let Qiu Chi's envoy go to Jiankang to get a reward, and sooner or later I will find an excuse to fall out with Qiu Chi. But I didn't want Qiu Chi's envoy to go on the road like this, and I didn't choose what to say, and I caught the opportunity. Zeng Hua said happily, just like a mahjong player with good luck touching himself again.

Jiang Nan's heart was turbulent, it seemed that he really underestimated this Lord Liangzhou Thorn Shi. This Zeng is really bold, his heart is as careful as a hair, and when he catches the opportunity, he will take a bite and go straight to the throat, which is more ruthless than the blood wolf in the snowfield!

Suddenly, Jiang Nan's heart moved, and he turned his head to Zeng Hua, and said meaningfully: "My lord, I'm afraid this battle will take a while." ”

When Zeng Hua heard this, he couldn't help but admire the son of the Qiang leader in front of him, and he had already vaguely guessed his plan based on some of the questions I asked, and it seemed that he really looked at the right person.

Zeng Hua smiled and didn't answer positively, but just said: "Work hard, I guarantee that you can not only take revenge, but also glorify your ancestors, and make your name surpass your ancestors!" Make your people rich and peaceful! Believe me! ”

Looking at Zeng Hua's sincere and sincere eyes, Jiang Nan couldn't help but be convinced, and nodded firmly. Perhaps it was the blessing of my ancestors that allowed me to finally meet a noble person after going through hardships and gave me a chance to take revenge.

After Zeng Hua comforted and encouraged Jiang Nan, he turned his head and saw Duan Huan and the others standing there next to him, with some disdain on their faces. I kind of understand their thoughts. It seems that they don't think much of these Saiwai Xiqiang people. You can't be arrogant, you used to look down on those Hu people, but as a result, you were almost destroyed by others.

Zeng Hua beckoned Duan Huan and the others to sit down, and then took out his saber easily, only to see that the white light was dazzling, and the cold air was pressing, it was really a good knife with extremely sharp edges. Just when everyone was puzzled, Zeng Hua flicked the blade of the knife, only to hear a buzzing sound, which went straight to everyone's ears.

"Have any of you seen how craftsmen make this steel knife?" Zeng Hua looked around at everyone and asked.

"Back to my lord, I've seen it." Wei Xingguo replied that he used to be the battalion commander of the First Regiment of Weiyang, responsible for guarding the Weiyang workshop, so he had to see it occasionally.

"Tell everyone!"

"Craftsmen put pig iron and wrought iron together, forge them repeatedly, and fuse them together before they get this steel knife." Wei Xingguo is not a professional, so he can only say a rough idea.

"Yes, pig iron is hard but brittle! Wrought iron is soft and tough! The combination of the two can be steel, and the knife made can blow hair and break hair, which is indestructible! Zeng Hua added. But everyone didn't understand why their adults talked about forging steel, but they all knew that there must be a deep meaning, and they didn't dare to be sloppy, so they all listened with their ears open.

"Now the Hu people are rushing into our homes like wolves, not only looting our belongings, but also killing our relatives. What are we going to do? We're going to kill with a steel knife in hand! Zeng Hua gently turned the steel knife in his hand, and the flowing white light on the knife reflected his deep eyes extremely sharply.

Zeng Hua paused for a while and continued, "Our people in the Central Plains are like wrought iron, and the people of Qiang and Di are like pig iron. ”

Everyone was shocked, but they had already tasted the taste.

Zeng Hua continued: "Yuanqing, look at yourselves, and then look at Jiang Nan, are they all black-haired and yellow-skinned? If you compare it with the Qianhu, Baihu (Baixiong), and Bailu (Xianbei), you will know that the people of the Central Plains have the same root and origin as the Qiang people and the Di people, while the Qianhu and Baihu are foreign invasions. ”

Speaking of this, Zeng Hua retracted the scabbard with a clatter, and said loudly: "Yuanqing, do you hope that your sons and daughters can be safe and secure for men to farm and weave women!" Jiang Nan, you don't think your descendants will be slaves like you! You must now unite and defend against the enemy! No matter how much we fight, it's infighting, but now that the Hu people are here, that is, the robbers are coming, and they are coming to destroy your clan and your family! ”

After listening to Zeng Hua's words, everyone couldn't help but stand up almost at the same time, clenched their fists and said calmly: "The words of the adults are like Hong Zhong Da Lu, we must be engraved in our hearts!" ”

Zeng Hua saw the expressions of the generals and knew that his "political and ideological work" today was quite effective. Unite all the forces that can be united, and unite with the outside world, this is what Chairman Mao taught us. Moreover, the Qiang people and the Di people are all part of the Chinese nation, similar to the Han people, with yellow skin and black hair, and those dark-eyed, brown-haired or white-skinned and blue-eyed "Hu people" are not the same kind of people. Now is the darkest and most tragic chaotic time, which is completely different from "the so-called prosperous era in a harmonious society". Not to mention individuals and families, but the entire Chinese nation is struggling on the verge of extinction. The means that should be used must be used, and those who can be won over must be wooed.

Zeng Hua didn't know whether what he was doing was right or wrong, he only knew that he kept fighting in this troubled world, kept fighting, and worked hard to do something useful in this troubled world.

At this time, the bright moon slowly climbed the east mountain, and the silver-white moonlight appeared even colder in the cold wind, and the snow on many mountains shone on the tassel-like moon, and suddenly showed a beating light.

Looking at the bright moon, Zeng Hua felt that a familiar melody slowly sounded in his ears, as if gushing out from the bottom of his heart, Zeng Hua couldn't help but sing in a low voice: "Thousand miles of knife light and shadow,

Hatred burns Kyushu.

On the night of the full moon, no one returns,

There is no peace in the land of flowers.

A cavity of silent blood,

Ten thousand wisps of motherly affection.

Snow Country shame goes first,

Reorganize the rivers and mountains for future generations. ”

Listening to Zeng Hua's sad, indignant, slow but sonorous singing, everyone couldn't help but think of his majestic father, loving mother, virtuous wife, amiable children, and beautiful homeland. It was also such a full moon night, and it was also such peace and tranquility. But all this disappeared suddenly with the iron horse of the Hu people, and the sword light of the Hu people disappeared suddenly.

After a song, everyone was already in tears unconsciously. No one cried, they all gritted their teeth desperately, clenched their fists, their grief and hatred like a raging fire, and even the biting cold wind retreated in fear before it.

Zeng Hua said in a low voice: "A person and nation who does not know hatred is not worthy of respect!" We must regain our lost homeland! The hatred of our relatives must be washed away with the blood of the enemy! ”

Hearing Zeng Hua's words, everyone trembled with excitement, and they felt that their blood had been boiled by Zeng Hua's words!

"Now we are gathering strength, just as thousands of small rivers converge into a monstrous flood, and thousands of sparks converge into a prairie fire! The enemy who stands in our way is a dead end! ”

"Good! Let's move on! Target Wudu! Zeng Hua glanced around at the subordinates around him and ordered directly.
