Chapter 1 The People

The Rong people refer to some small tribes living among the northern states of China, or small uncivilized countries.

Yiluo Zhirong, living in the mountains and forests between Yishui and Luoshui, is like an independent small kingdom.

Xinyi is between Yi and Luo, close to Yiluo Zhirong, and is often harassed by it.

Just after the autumn harvest, the Rong people attacked again, wanting to plunder Xinyi.

The Rong people sent messengers to tell Xinyi that they would only be given three days to prepare food, and if there was not enough food after three days, they would come and "fetch it" in person.

This is already a commonplace thing in Xinyi.

There are only three ways to deal with it.

First, organize the countrymen to fight, but the population of Xinyi is not large, and it is generally necessary to unite with other gongyi to fight.

Second, obediently pay tribute and give food to the Rong people, as long as their demands are not too excessive.

But this time, the Rong people suddenly appeared, directly blocking the only way out of Xinyi, and they could attack Xinyi at any time.

As soon as they occupied the road, the Rong people destroyed the beacon tower in Xinyi, and told Xinyi that if they dared to light the wolf smoke, they would kill everyone in Xinyi!

And the green water surrounding Xinshan, because of the heavy rain for days, the river water swelled, the river was turbulent, and it was impossible to sail at all.

It is impossible to contact other towns or despises.

But the second one doesn't seem to be so feasible either.

This year, the royal family's tribute has increased, if it is given to the Rong people, then what should be done with the royal family's tribute after the autumn?

At this point, Fan Mi also proposed a third plan.

That's the sacrifice of women.

The woman of Xinyi was dedicated to the Rong people, in order to ask for the retreat of the Rong people.

But this plan can't be solved here in Xin again anyway.

"Rong people, how many soldiers and horses? If you gather all the strength of my whole city, will you be able to resist?"

Xin asked again.

The former lord was really mediocre, and he didn't even know such crucial information, so he rushed out with a sword.

Brave and unscrupulous, no wonder it was set aside.

Situ Fan Mi said: "This time in Yiluo, a total of about 2,000 people gathered, all of them are lightly armored long knives, blocking our way down the mountain, if we try our best to block it, I'm afraid." ”

"Yes, this year, the blue water has skyrocketed, drowning their crops, so they will definitely not retreat easily."

An old man of the Fan clan spoke.

All Chinese people can speak on deliberations.

The Yin family also had a disciple and said: "We are stuck on the top of the mountain, we can definitely support it for several days, and then we will ask for help when the water recedes. ”

"Yin Qiu, as far as our Xinyi strength is concerned, there are less than five hundred people, and we can't hold it for a day!"

"The Yin family wants to make a contribution, so it's better to fight the Rong people by himself, why call us to die together."

"Wasn't it all decided last time! Hand over that girl! ”

"Yes! Hand over Wei, and the Rong people will inevitably retreat! ”

……

The people of the country discussed one after another, and Situ Fanmi smiled slightly.

"Gentleman, don't hesitate to do this anymore, you have also tried, and you are not the opponent of those Rong people at all." Fan Mi Dao.

The people of the Fan clan are basically foot soldiers.

They didn't want to fight the Rong people head-on in the mountains and forests, so they naturally chose to reconcile.

"Situ can guarantee that sending Wei will definitely make the Rong people retreat?"

Xin spoke again.

"This ...... I can't guarantee it. ”

Fan Mi shook his head.

"Who can guarantee that?"

Xin looked at the many Chinese people again.

Who can? No one can ......

"This year's Rong people have a bad harvest, do you say, is it women who are important to them, or is food important to them?"

"With so many troops, can't they break through our cities, steal food, and then rob women?"

"What do you think the Rong people are? Are those great countries that pay attention to etiquette? Blindly retreat, will they bypass us Xinyi? ”

A series of questions left Fan Mi speechless.

The people of the country also stopped talking.

It's not that he doesn't dare to refute, but he can't answer Xin You's question.

Yin Rong thought that Dr. Yi was finally on his side, so he raised his head and said, "So I said, I still have to stick to it!" Nothing can be given to them! ”

"Hold on? Relying on your Yin Clan's bow and arrows? How many arrows do you have now? Can it be launched in the mountains and forests? ”

"This ...... Yin's arrows were about 5,000. ”

"Five thousand? Kill more than 2,000 people? Do you think it's possible? ”

Even if Xin didn't know much about the war in the Cold Weapon Age, and knew that the ratio of bows and arrows to the enemy could not reach two to one.

In recorded battles, the ratio of bows and arrows to death should be fifty to one, and it is also a professional archer!

Although the archers of the Yin clan in Xinyi can shoot arrows, their bows and arrows, their skills, and the terrain of Xinyi cannot rely on these 5,000 bows and arrows to defend against foreign enemies.

"Sima. Although your Yin clan's courage is commendable, but as a Sima, you should be familiar with military affairs, don't you even have this little plan? ”

Xin is unceremonious, the people of the country discuss matters, and they should speak freely.

Yin's unrealistic statement is less reliable than Fan's.

To be honest, if it weren't for the previous "Xin You" who had feelings for Wei, and this year's special situation, a woman might not play much of a role, Xin You really felt that Fan's decision-making was the old opinion.

A female slave, in exchange for the peace of Yiyi, is indeed more cost-effective for Xinyi.

Unfortunately, Xin disagreed.

Xin again, naturally, couldn't agree.

……

"Gentleman, as you said, it is impossible to send food, it is impossible to defend it, and it is not possible to send that cheap maid to sue for peace, are we just waiting for death?!"

Fan Mi's voice was raised and he said to the countrymen.

Some of the people, especially the Fan clan, began to make noise, and some made sarcastic remarks.

"Gentleman, this is not either, that is not either, what are we discussing?!"

"Doctor Yi is very brave, and one person dares to take the head of the Rong people, so he naturally can't look down on our strategy."

"If everyone was as reckless as Dr. Yi, Xinyi would have been gone a long time ago!"

Some of the people of the Yin family also joined in.

This made Xin see the situation in the city again.

Fan's heart is well known to passers-by.

Although the Yin family and the Fan family are not on good terms, they are by no means the hardcore allies of the Xin family.

What makes Xin feel the most chilling is the attitude of the Xin clan.

At this time, Xin was besieged again, but no one from the Xin clan stood up to speak for him.

It seems that everyone is waiting for Xin to hold his head and beg for mercy, and then give up his position as a doctor himself.

Seeing that the people of the country began to accuse Xin You, Fan Mi gave his son Fan Boyu a look.

Fan Boyu took a deep breath, this was the opportunity that their Fan clan had been waiting for decades!

So he boldly said:

"The gentleman is reluctant to be a servant, and abandons the lives of the countrymen, I think it is not the choice of the doctor!"

As soon as these words came out, the audience was in an uproar.

Not the doctor's choice? For more than 100 years, Xin Yi has been succeeded by the son of the Xin family's great sect, and Xin is the only son, who else can serve besides him? !

Could it be by the Fan family?!

This is an unprecedented event!

A few bold and shrewd guys from the Fan clan hurriedly echoed:

"Our Xinyi is a public estate, not a fief of the Xin family! Who is the Yi doctor, it is the Situ doctor in the middle of the court who has the final say, and it does not have to be the patriarch of the Xin clan! ”

"That's right! Our Fan family has had a lot of harvests in recent years, all of which are the credit of the patriarch, I think the patriarch is much more powerful than the Yi doctor! ”

In this era, the enthusiasm of the Chinese people for "politics" is extremely high.

There is no fear and blind obedience to those in charge, and he freely expresses his views and opinions on national affairs.

It is their right and their obligation.

The anger of the people of the country, the Son of Heaven can also drive him out of the city!
