Chapter 413: Persuade to Surrender

The morning sun in early winter shone on the snow-white loess plains, and there was frost.

The sunlight turns the hoarfrost into layers of mist, rising little by little.

This scene was so beautiful that Lao Zhang, who rarely saw flat ground, couldn't help but be stunned.

The wind here is strong, and the wind comes as soon as the sun comes out. The fog is quickly blown away, and the psychedelic scenery turns into a Shura field in an instant.

In front of the position, corpses were piled up and down. They were all dressed in leather armor and had uniform uniforms. At first glance, they looked like elites.

Lao Zhang murmured: "It's stupid for a straight woman to spend such a big sum of money..."

The boy who delivered the food came, carrying the burden: "Uncle Zhang, Brother Wang! Come to eat!"

Lao Zhang came down from the ladder: "Little duck egg, what are you eating today? By the way, what happened in the city last night?"

Xiao Yadan was wearing a linen apron and skillfully added porridge to the lunch box in front of him. Then he took out the big buns from the basket and distributed them to the sergeants: "I heard that the Tibetan people were rebelling and wanted to burn the city gate to release the Xixia people.

When we entered the stronghold, Tanhua Lang captured them all."

Lao Zhang took a hard bite of the delicious food in his hand: "Country bumpkin!"

Little Duck Egg was dissatisfied: "This is a big steamed bun stuffed with mutton and chives! It's a good thing that you can't even eat during the Chinese New Year!"

Lao Zhang laughed and said: "I mean those Tibetan people. People in Meishan can smell it as soon as they walk into the city gate. Those tree trunks smeared with water glass will burn to hell!"

…

There are no ghosts, but there is a great witch, who is beneficial to Xiweishe.

Twenty thousand disciples knelt on the school ground fearfully and prostrate themselves.

Several Tibetan leaders looked pale and shouted in front of the military hall: "Prefect, I have nothing to do with the affairs of the Shuqu tribe!"

Su You came out of the hall, still rubbing his eyes: "Oh, what are you doing?"

At that time, an old Tibetan man shouted: "The affairs of the Shuqu Department have nothing to do with me and others, we don't even know about it!"

Su You quickly helped the leaders up and said, "Get up, please. I didn't say it had anything to do with you. Please let your subordinates disperse. We will go into the hall to talk."

Several leaders looked at each other, but they didn't dare.

Su You sighed: "Forget it, let's talk openly under the sun."

After speaking, he said to everyone: "The matter is clear. Although the Shuqu tribe is a Tibetan tribe, there is a talented person in the tribe who serves as a commander in the Xixia Iron Kites, named Shuqu Zejiu."

"The Shuqu tribe was entrusted by the Xixia people to conduct border trade. Before the war started, they led the way for the Xixia people, lurked, and acted internally, with the intention of being detrimental to our army. We have known this for a long time."

After speaking, he glanced at everyone: "But old leader, you said you didn't know anything about it. That's enough. Even I know about it. Don't you know?"

The old Tibetan broke out in a cold sweat: "I...we really don't know..."

Su You smiled slightly: "Whether you really don't know or you pretend you don't know, it's not you who committed the crime. Although I sympathize with my people, I don't blame you..."

The old Tibetan man stood up immediately: "I'm going to chop off Qu Ming's dog's head to show my loyalty!"

Su You stopped him and said, "That won't work. If you kill the Shuqu leader, we will become enemies. There is a military law team over there to take care of it."

"Shu Qubu is different from you. Humph, we do quite a lot of business, but the money doesn't exist in Sitong Bank. There are convenient ways but we don't use them. We would rather move here and there every time. Old man, tell me.

Why am I?"

The old Tibetan man said: "Because he is the internal lackey of the Party members! We are different. We have more money in Sitong!"

Su You smiled: "Exactly! That's why they are different from you, and I have never doubted my loyalty to you."

"You are also my people, just like the Han people, so naturally I will drink a bowl of water. You are in the salt fields of Qingtang and Hengshan. If you win this battle, we will definitely take it back and return it to you. I can also give you a guarantee and help

You increase production."

"As for wool and other products, I also assure you that the price is the same as that of the Han people who farm and raise livestock. The Fan-Han family in Weizhou will not favor one over the other."

"Hello everyone, it's really good, old man, don't you think so?"

The old Tibetan man once again knelt on the ground, kissed Su You's boots, and sang with his dancing sleeves: "Yixi Weishe, the light that walks in the world. Your wisdom is as deep as the North Sea; your kindness is as warm as the spring breeze; your

Fairness is like sunshine and mountain springs. No matter you are rich or poor, you can nourish you..."

Su You smiled and interrupted: "There is no need to flatter me. There is a premise for all this. You must be loyal to the Song Dynasty and fight with the Xixia people! How much business has been delayed by this war? Seeing that it is winter,

The cattle and sheep will become thinner day by day, and if you want to sell them at a good price, you have to wait until the spring is green tomorrow."

"Get up, I'm not a bright wise man, I'm just an ordinary young man. When one day I go to your village as a guest, you can serve me a bowl of milk tea in a wooden bowl just like you do to the young people from afar.

, that’s good.”

The old Tibetan said respectfully: "You are Yixi Weishe, and you are protected by Buddhas and Bodhisattvas. Otherwise, why should the Shuqu tribe set a fire last night, but could not light the pine wood village gate?"

"Yixi Weishe has great power. Now we are not afraid. You will definitely attract water, right?"

Su You smiled: "Yes! The reason why we were not in a hurry to divert water before was because the water stored in the two large pits can still be used for several days."

"Now that the Shuqu Department has passed on the news, Lord Xia must have thought that we were short of water, so he would surround us instead of attacking us."

"My inference is also correct. You have withstood the test and are worthy of trust."

"Everyone should seize the free time these days to build a solid city defense and ensure safety. After this battle, we will fight back to our hometown and take back our salt fields and pastures."

The old Tibetan man stood up: "Yixi Weishe, just now you said you want fairness, so if we participate in the war and gain military exploits, will we also be rewarded?"

Su You said: "The Military Merit Department has clearly marked the price, a head with five guans, and a prisoner with 10 guans. If you can catch Liang Zuo, a Jiedushi will not be able to escape!"

Several leaders suddenly became excited: "Yixi Weishe, then we also want to participate in the war!"

Su You said sternly: "If you want to participate in the war, you must act according to military law. I don't want an army that does not obey orders. Seventeen prohibitions and fifty-four beheadings. Once you commit a crime, even I will not be immune."

"You must be fair. You must know that fairness not only has benefits, but also has responsibilities. Han people, Yi people, and Tibetan people must treat each other equally. Do you dare to accept it?"

"dare!"

"Okay! Let's keep our spirits up, maintain our weapons, and wait for orders!"

The Tibetan people left happily, and Zhong Yi came over: "Teacher, the Xixia people have sent documents and want to send envoys."

Su You couldn't laugh or cry: "To put it so politely, you know we are short of water and came here to persuade us to surrender, right?"

Zhong Yi said: "Then see you?"

Su You said: "See you! Of course I want to see you!"

…

The messenger was Liang Yi Duo Mi. When Su You saw him, he was studying the jade porcelain tea bowl in his hand.

Su You saw: "My old friend is here, I'm so excited to take care of him."

Liang Yiduo Mi praised: "When marching and fighting, he still carries such exquisite jade and porcelain. The prefect is really an elegant man."

Su You was angry: "If it weren't for your family master, it's not like we couldn't be friends, alas."

Liang Yiduo said: "We can be friends now. Weizhou is the magistrate. For Mingrun, it is too unworthy of his talent."

"Wuzhu said that you are about the same age as him. If you return to Xia, you might as well learn from you and call Mingrun the emperor's master."

"At the same time, in accordance with the Liao system, I will make you the king of Nanyuan. All Han people in Xia will be under the jurisdiction of Mingrun."
