Chapter 557: The Only Chance in This Life!

After Ma Chao's defeat, he was also defeated by Xiahou Yuan and died on the battlefield on the spot.

Originally, it was a powerful party, and everyone had to sell a little face, but he was a grandson for several years, a few years ago, tens of thousands of troops, 5,000 cavalry, and now, only 1,000 cavalry are left, and most of them are old and weak.

The Wei State pumped Ding, and each household drew a Ding, which had already drained the blood of the Xingguo Di clan.

In a few years, I am afraid that in this world, there will be no existence of the Xingguo Di clan.

Rejuvenating the country?

Slaves.

Therefore, after learning that Ma Chao had entered the customs, the Xingguo Di clan immediately secretly went to join him.

Coming and going, thousands of people have passed.

It's a pity that Ma Chao died in Yongxian, otherwise with the ability of General Shenweitian, he would definitely bring the revival of the Xingguo Di clan, even if it can't be revived, there will be some achievements, at least it will change the current situation of the Xingguo Di clan is not as good as the pigs and dogs.

Just when everyone in the Xingguo Di clan was about to despair, Ma Cheng, the son of Ma Chao, took the emperor's edict to find the place where the Xingguo Di clan was.

The place where the Xingguo clan lives is in the west of Longshan, in a rather deep valley.

The valley is a forgotten hideaway, surrounded by towering mountain peaks that act as a natural barrier to the outside world.

In the valley, there is a clear mountain spring water, which flows lightly from the height of the mountain, and the sound of the water is murmuring, like a gentle music, bringing infinite vitality and vitality to this valley.

Along both sides of the mountain spring water, is the field cultivated by the people of the Xingguo Di clan.

The fields are scattered in the gentle valleys, and several fields that have been sown with wheat are particularly green.

Wheat swayed gently in the wind, as if to show people their vitality.

In other fields, there are all kinds of vegetables and fruits.

It's harvest season, and the fruit is full of fruits, hanging from the branches, and the attractive colors and aromas make you want to taste them.

Stables are scarce in the valley, and cattle and sheep are almost invisible.

I don't know, I thought this was a Han people's settlement, not a Di settlement.

This is very different from Ma Cheng's impression of the Xingguo Di clan.

To be honest, in his heart, he was a little disappointed.

Xingguo Di people, aren't they Di people who kill people immediately?

Why can't I even see many war horses?

"General Pony, please!"

The new leader of the Xingguo people, Afu Wang, is Agui's brother, and he has a lot of hair at the moment, and he looks thin.

On his side, it was rare to see young and strong people, mostly women and children.

Ma Cheng's face was gloomy, but he also followed Ah Fu into the lobby.

"Rejuvenate the country, listen to the edict of the emperor of the Han State!"

The edict of the emperor of the Han State?

Xingguo Yiren showed a panicked look on his face, but the great name of the emperor of the Han State, they had heard of it, and this time they hurriedly returned to the ground, pouting their buttocks, and they were afraid that their lack of etiquette would annoy the emperor of the Han State and cause disaster to their own family.

Ma Cheng's face was expressionless, and he immediately read out the edict.

The Emperor of the Han Dynasty said:

Afu, the leader of the Di people of Wenxing Country, has a good way of governing the clan, and is loyal to my Han country, and I am very happy. Today, he issued an edict and ordered Afu to go to Longxian County in person, meet the holy face, and discuss the plan of rejuvenating the country with the way of loyalty.

In order to show my kindness, I was specially given ten pairs of armor and 100 blades to prepare for the needs of the garrison; 1,000 pieces of grain and grass for the people's livelihood. He also gave a glass lamp, five pieces of porcelain, and a hundred pieces of silk.

After Afu receives the order, he must set off as soon as possible, and there must be no mistakes.

Chin this! ”

His Majesty the Emperor personally summoned him?

Ah Fu suddenly became excited.

How can he be!

How can he be rich!

Ah Fu, the leader of the Xingguo Di clan, got up slowly, and the excitement on his face had not yet dissipated.

But as if he had thought of something, Ah Fu's face couldn't help but show a look of worry.

"General Pony, what is the matter with Your Majesty's summons? I wonder if General Pony might reveal a thing or two? ”

Seeing the Emperor of the Han State may be an opportunity for the Xingguo Di clan, but it may also be a risk.

After all, the emperor of the Han State gave them a generous gift, and he must have asked them to do things.

And to do things is to shed blood and sacrifice.

The current Xingguo clan has long been unable to withstand any major casualties.

Ma Cheng looked at Ah Fu with a flattering look, although he looked down on this person in his heart, but he still looked at his father's sake, and said to Ah Fu:

"Your Majesty wants to control Longxi, and the Peng clan and some Longxi clans do not want to completely obey Your Majesty, Your Majesty wants to use the Xingguo clan as the minions of the Han State, the sword in the hands of the Han State, to deal with the Longxi Shi clan."

Dealing with the Longxi Shi clan?

Ah Fu was stunned.

And Ma Cheng's later words were also said slowly.

"But I see that most of your people are old and weak, women and children, I'm afraid it will be difficult to take on this responsibility, Your Majesty also sent an envoy to Qiu Chi Mountain at the same time, summoning Yang Qian, the leader of the Baiqing Di clan, maybe he will meet Your Majesty's request."

For they were to be used to kill the people?

The enthusiasm in Ah Fu's heart was extinguished a lot.

really

The Han people have nothing good, all they want is his life to rejuvenate the country.

Don't do this kind of errand!

Ma Cheng saw the expression on Ah Fu's face, and seemed to see what he was thinking.

"If the leader of Afu thinks that doing things for His Majesty is a chore, then it is a big mistake, as long as Your Majesty gives you an appointment, who dares to despise you, although there are not many people in your Xingguo Di clan, but under the cheer of your arms, there may be many Di people who come to Jingcong, plus Your Majesty has sent you military armor, with a little ability, you can gather 10,000 soldiers, at that time, the status of Xingguo Di clan is still like now?"

There are a lot of people in Longxi, but they are just scattered in various places, and these are potential stocks that can be absorbed into the Xingguo Di family.

Being seen through by Ma Cheng, Ah Fu's face was a little ashamed, he hurriedly saluted Ma Cheng and asked, "Please also ask General Pony to teach me." ”

Ma Cheng shook his head and said, "I can't guess Your Majesty's thoughts, but as long as you really do things for Your Majesty, Your Majesty will not embarrass you." ”

"That's the case."

There was a look of hesitation on Ah Fu's face, but soon, this hesitation was replaced by his ruthlessness.

In the past few years, he has not suffered enough humiliation for the Xingguo clan?

Anyway, in the long run, the demise of the Xingguo Di clan is not far away, and there may be some hope for it.

"Then I will go down here to meet Your Majesty."

Ma Cheng nodded, and his eyes finally showed approval.

"Gather the soldiers who can fight in the clan, let Your Majesty see your determination, if you are worthless, why does Your Majesty use you as a minion?"

Ah Fu nodded heavily.

"General Pony, rest assured, in the Longshan mountain pass, in the dense forest, it is a place where our clan grazes, and more than 1,000 Xingguo Di clan warriors are hidden in it."

Speaking of this, Ah Fu also showed an embarrassed look on his face.

"Before, Wei Zhengding urged too hard, I had to hide people in the mountains, and I asked General Pony not to be angry."

And more than a thousand?

Ma Cheng's eyes finally lit up.

"It's good to have someone, bring these more than 1,000 warriors, and the revival of the rejuvenation of the country may begin here."

Longxian Waihan military camp.

After Liu Chan heard the news of the thirteen divisions of Lu Shuihu in Huangzhong, he immediately fell into deep thought.

The origin of the Lushuihu people is complex, with elements of the Xiongnu and Yue, and in the evolution of the nation, it has absorbed the Qian, Diqiang and other tribes.

The thirteen tribes of Lushui Hu in Huangzhong are actually thirteen different tribes, and the composition is different, but the Han people classify them into one category, so as to appear on the stage of history.

"Of these thirteen, which one does the girl think can be wooed?"

Xin Xianying shook his head and said: "None of His Majesty can win them over, or they can't win them now, at least they have to fight Huangshui, and only after these Lu Shuihu know Your Majesty's power will they have the opportunity to enslave them, these Hu people have always been afraid of power and morality." ”

Xin Xianying's words made Liu Chan think a lot less.

Truly.

After all, Lu Shuihu in Huangzhong is separated from him by lofty mountains and mountains, and people may not have heard the name of his Emperor Liu Gonghei of the Han State!

"Huangzhong Lu Shuihu can't count on it, Xingguo Di Clan, Baiqing Di Clan is enough?"

Xin Xianying said on the side: "The Xingguo Di clan is weak, and Your Majesty is easy to subdue, but it is impossible to expect him to deal with Anding Lu Shuihu, the Baiqing Di clan is strong, if it can be used by Your Majesty, it may be able to cause a lot of trouble to the Anding Peng clan, but Yang Wan is not easy to accept, even if Yang Wan is subdued, the Xingguo Di clan and the Baiqing Di clan are not enough to deal with the Anding Peng clan." ”

"Why?"

Liu Chan really doesn't know much about the situation in Longxi, but he has one advantage, that is, he is open-minded and inquisitive.

If you don't understand, you can ask, and if you ask more, you will understand.

"Even if the Baiqing Di clan and the Xingguo Di clan are all combined, there are only tens of thousands of troops, and the soldiers who can pull out, but five or six thousand, this is still their whole clan's contribution, and the more than 200,000 troops of Lu Shuihu can pull out tens of thousands of soldiers, judging from the number of people, Your Majesty can get a glimpse of one or two."

Thousands, how can you beat tens of thousands?

What's more, there are still Peng's people who can bring in strong men.

"Then according to the girl, what should I do?"

"Naturally, all the things that can be used are used, the Di people, Your Majesty can recruit them, and all of them will be recruited, and my Longxi Xin clan can also be used by Your Majesty, except for the Longxi Xin clan, Longxi Li clan and other Longxi clans, Your Majesty has not to appease first, and it is not too late to deal with them after cleaning up the Longxi Peng clan!"

To be an emperor is to be thick-faced and black-hearted.

The emperor's mind is not like this.

Liu Chan nodded slowly, and said to Xin Xianying: "Tell me about these Qiangs!" ”

Xin Xianying obviously got the support of the Longxi Xin family, otherwise where did she get so much news?

You know, in this era, the news is very closed, and there are no locals, so it is simply difficult to move an inch.

Especially in a place like Longxi, where there are many Qiang, this is even more so.

This can be seen from the fact that Liu Chan sent the military secretary to obtain little information.

In Guanzhong, because everyone is Han Chinese, and the Han State has a high status in the hearts of the Han people, the military secretary knows it with great righteousness, so that many people can cooperate silently.

A lot of news, in this process, converged on Liu Chan's side.

But in Longxi, this method is difficult to succeed.

There are many barbarians here, more chaotic ministers and thieves, and the ability of the military department to buy people has greatly decreased, and the difficulty of obtaining information has naturally increased greatly.

Xin Xianying nodded immediately, and slowly talked about the situation in Longxi Qiang for Liu Chan.

Those that are distributed on the dry Loess Plateau are called "Qiang", and those that enter the mountains of the Yangtze River basin are called "Di".

Due to the geographical proximity and blood proximity of the two ethnic groups, after the formation of ethnic differences, they will also penetrate each other in the place of intersection.

"Hanshu Hundred Officials and Ministers on the Table": The county "has barbarians".

"The Book of the Later Han Dynasty and the Records of the Hundred Officials" said: "The lord of the county is barbarian and said."

In order to control these Di tribes, the Western Han Dynasty initially set up a total of thirteen roads, namely: Wudu Dao, Di Dao, Gu Dao, Pingle Dao, Fu Dao, Jialing Dao, Xuncheng Dao, Xia Bi Dao, Diandi Dao, Yinping Dao, Gangdi Dao, Xiangdi Dao, and Luoyang Dao, which includes 7 Dao in Wudu County.

Living here is the most powerful tribe of the Di people, the White Horse Di.

In the "Five Hu and Sixteen Kingdoms", the regimes established by the Di people include Qianqin, Qiuchi and Houliang.

In addition, Liu Chan also learned from Xin Xianying that from the Western Han Dynasty to the Three Kingdoms, the Di people experienced two major migrations

The first time was in 108 BC (the third year of Yuan Feng).

In 111 BC (the sixth year of Yuan Ding), Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty opened up the southwest border, sent Zhonglang to destroy Guo Chang and others, and placed Wudu County.

After the establishment of the county, the Di people were ostracized and moved to the valleys outside the country.

In 108 BC, "the Di people rebelled, sent troops to break it, and moved to Jiuquan County".

Part of it was moved to Lufu in Hexi, and part of it was moved to Guanzhongshui and Longshan.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty sent troops to suppress the rebellion of the Di people, and relocated a part of the Di people to Jiuquan County, that is, Jiuquan Lufu Zhidi.

The second migration took place in 219 (the 24th year of Jian'an in the Eastern Han Dynasty).

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the heroes were divided.

The Di people, who are between Cao and Liu, have become the object of contention between the two.

The Hao Shuai of the Di nationality also took the opportunity to rise up and formed four forces in the Wudu area:

The first is to rejuvenate the king of the country, Agui, who lives in the city of Xingguo

the second is the king of 100 acres, Yang 10 million, who lives in Chishan;

the third is to distinguish and other places, and other seven departments, such as Shuai and Lei Ding;

Fourth, Dou Mao, the king of Di near the river pool, has more than 10,000 people.

The four are each dominant, and they are not attached to Han and Wei.

But after being cleaned up by the Han and Wei Yitong, the Xingguo Di clan became a slave of the Wei State, and the power was greatly reduced, Yang Wan obeyed Cao Wei, so he was able to maintain his strength, Lei Ding was attached to Liu Bei, and the power was relatively well preserved, and the Hechi Di clan was directly exterminated by Cao Cao.

In other words, what Liu Chan can rely on now is the Xingguo Di clan and the Baiqing Di clan.

It's just that the number of these people is too small.

"Your Majesty, why should you worry, Ma Chao's son Ma Chengshang is under His Majesty's command, if you let him raise his arms, he will definitely be able to attract his subordinates!"

The name of a man, the shadow of a tree.

Ma Chao's prestige is still there.

Liu Chan already had an idea in his heart, and at this time, Ah Fu, the leader of the Xinguo Di clan, also arrived.

Liu Chan immediately asked him to enter the account and summon him.

"Barbarian chief Afu, meet Your Majesty, long live Your Majesty!"

Ah Fu lowered his head, had all the etiquette, and was very respectful, not even daring to glance at Liu Chan.

"You are the New Country Clan's Afu?"

"The little chief is Ah Fu."

Although Ah Fu lowered his head, his eyes were very bright.

During the time he had come all the way from Longshan, he had already figured it out.

Reviving the Guodi clan, this is his only chance in this life, and it is also the last chance for the rejuvenation of the Guodi clan, no matter what, he must firmly grasp this opportunity in his hands!

For this reason, it is not a pity to die! (End of chapter)
