Chapter 285: Tuntian Talent Arrived
Ma Tan led his troops into the Western Capital, and immediately sent people to call out all the chiefs and elders of Xiqiang who were detained here. And Ma Tan set up a banquet and invited the leaders of these Xiqiang to have a meal.
After the leaders of this group of Xiqiang were captured, Ma Jian led his troops north to help Zhuge Liang draw Sima Yi. After Zhang Yi was in charge of detaining these captives, he treated them well according to Shu Han custom.
Because of this, when Ma Tan invited them over, he found that the leaders of these Xiqiang were all red and energetic.
After taking their seats, a group of Xiqiang leaders showed no fear at all. Not only was he not afraid, but there were even a few brain-pumping people who complained that Ma Tan's banquet was too shabby, and it was not the qualified treatment given by the Han Dynasty to the vassals.
"Damn, these captives won't be better off than me?" Ma Yan grinded his teeth a little, and glanced at this group of tribal leaders who seemed to be unclear about the situation, and a trace of murderous aura flashed in his eyes.
Seeing this, Shu Ji had already put his hand on the knife, ready to kill the chicken and make an example of the monkey at any time.
"You've been doing well in the Western Capital these days." Ma Tan narrowed his eyes, and his tone couldn't tell whether he was angry or unhappy.
"It's not bad, the Son of Heaven is still kind, and I am very grateful." Several tribal elders said with a smile.
"Yes, is the Son of Heaven still safe? We still don't dare to forget! ”
"In the past, it was Hanchen, and now it is not Hanchen!"
"Okay, good, if you are a vassal of the Han Dynasty, you are indeed qualified." Ma Jian clapped his hands and said with a little inexplicability.
"However, as Hanchen, this seems to be unqualified."
Ma Tan's words were relatively clear, but the leaders of this group of Xiqiang didn't seem to understand what Ma Tan meant. A group of fools still only sang the praises of the benevolence of the Son of Heaven, saying that they would inevitably surrender to the Han after they went back, and would not be an enemy of the Han for the rest of their lives.
However, after some temptation, Ma Jian basically saw that these people were pretending to be confused. They all understood what Ma Tan meant, but they didn't want to face it at all.
In that case, Ma Jian has nothing to say. waved his hand directly at Shu Ji, Shu Ji immediately understood, and when the banquet was occupied, he slashed over several of the most jumping elders with two swords.
Suddenly, blood spattered on the scene of the banquet, a group of chiefs and elders were shocked. The atmosphere of the host and guest just now disappeared in an instant, and a group of Xiqiang leaders looked at Ma Jian in disbelief.
"Aren't you afraid you don't recognize the situation? Am I talking to you? Ma Tan leaned his back, put his feet directly on the table, looked at this group of people who did not see the coffin and did not scatter the eagle with an extremely rude and contemptuous movement, and snorted coldly.
"You are not a vassal of the Han Dynasty now, and you will not be in the future! The Xiqiang tribes have no meaning of existence from now on, and your tribesmen are all Hanchen from now on! ”
"I have called you here today to inform you that I may send someone to your people to come out and be Han people. As for you, in the future, under the management of the Great Han, you just need to be a Han Min with a slightly higher status. ”
This time, Ma Jian didn't save them any face, and said it very nakedly.
This made these Xiqiang leaders not know what to do.
From the moment Ma Jian called them over, the old foxes immediately understood Ma Tan's thoughts. After all, for so many years, General Shenwei has been arresting people in Tuntian, and the leaders of this group of Qiang people are all clear.
But it's basically impossible for them to give up their tribe and their power. So even though they know everything, they just don't want to face it.
And they are still a little lucky in their hearts, thinking that Ma Yan, as a Han general, should always save face in front of the younger brother in the past.
But obviously, Ma Jian didn't have this idea, he never cared about face.
"Horse Envoy Gentleman! I have been living in Xiping for generations, and I have long been used to it, and now I ...... "There is a leader who wants to fight for it, even if the mountains and forests are hard and tiring, then they can make people call, right?"
If all of them were moved out, then all of their tribeamen would belong to the Han Chinese.
"Heh......" Ma Tan rolled his eyes and gestured to Shu Ji with his eyes.
Shu Ji immediately understood, and without saying a word to the guards, he cut down the leader who raised objections.
"I'm just informing you and giving you a way to live. I could have beheaded you all, and with the strength of your tribe as a guide, I moved you one by one. ”
"So this is not a negotiation, this is a notice!"
Ma Yan's cold and murderous words fell, and the audience fell into a dead silence. The chiefs and elders of a group of tribes each cowered, unwilling to look up.
They are different from Dongqiang, they are not highly sinicized, and they don't have that much admiration for the Han people. Moreover, most of them are nomadic herders, and if they want to exterminate their people and move their people all at once, these people will definitely not agree.
Ma Jian is not in a hurry about this, he just needs to give them a dismount and then slowly increase the pressure.
"Escort them all to me, they are not guests now, they are captives, and they don't need to be treated favorably." Ma Jian snorted lightly, waved his hand and ordered.
"By the way, the best of your tribe are all being held now. Otherwise, they will be sent to Jincheng Tuntian, and how long they can live without their strength depends on your attitude. ”
This sentence made the faces of the chiefs of the various tribes change suddenly, and they all looked at Ma Jian angrily, and the resentment in their eyes was difficult to hide.
They want to kill Ma Jian now, kill this bastard who wants to destroy their tribe!
But Ma Jian was not afraid at all, but suddenly laughed, and directly ordered Shu Ji to throw a large number of weapons on the ground, stood up and looked at the leader of the Qiang tribe and smiled.
"If you are not convinced, you can stab me with your sword. If anyone can kill me, I can let you go!" ”
"But, do you dare?"
Looking at the saber on Ma Yan's waist, thinking of this famous name, a group of people were silent for a long time, and no one dared to make a move. Until the end, they all silently followed the Han soldiers and left.
On the same day, several elders relented and expressed their willingness to cooperate. In the next few days, the tribal leaders all accepted their fate and expressed their willingness to surrender to the Han.
With the cooperation of this group of tribal leaders, the entire tribes scattered in the mountains of Xiqiang began to migrate outward.
The first population of Jincheng Tuntian was gathered in this way.

When Ma Tan collected the population of Xiqiang, Li Mu also ushered in the manpower allocated by the central government to support Tuntian in Jincheng.
Among them, the leader was a general with a ruddy face and a face full of excitement.
"Li Fujun, in Xia Zhangwei, was ordered to come to support the general of Zhengbei with a group of Tuntian generals."
Li Mu knows Ma Tan's kindness to Zhang Wei, and knows that he is also a great talent that Ma Jian fancies. So he also nodded with a smile and greeted Zhang Wei, and the two knew each other.
However, after Zhang Wei exchanged with Li Mu, he immediately laughed and pulled a young man over to introduce Li Mu.
"I heard that the envoy was here in Tuntian, so he went to Guanghan County and brought this great talent with him."
"This is the former general of the northern expedition when he broke the Wei army in Nanyang, and defected from Runan to the south. At that time, he was placed in Tuntian, Guanghan County for testing, and I have seen it, this is a great talent! ”
"Oh? From Runan? ”
Today's third watch, let me see if anyone knows who this great talent is
