Chapter 584 Bai Shiqiang’s Waiting and Seeing

 Ma Yan led a group of people to the camp of the Baishi Qiang people.

Baishi Qiang belongs to Dong Qiang.

The Eastern Qiang and the Western Qiang have been distinguished since ancient times. However, due to the repeated rebellions of the Western Qiang in the Han Dynasty, the history and records of the Western Qiang were relatively detailed, while the Eastern Qiang was relatively rare in writing.

In the Han Dynasty, there were many Qiang people in Sanfu, most of them were "Eastern Qiang". They had migrated from the Dahe, Huangshui and Taohe river basins in Jincheng County many times before, and some of them came from Longxi and Northland.

, those who moved within the settled counties,

During the development process of the Qiang people, they were once very powerful. In the fifth year of the Yongchu period, the Qiang people's power expanded to the county offices of Longxi, Anding, Beidi, Shangjun and other counties. At that time, many prefects and county magistrates had no intention of fighting.

, the second one was unable to fight, most of them fled inland, and a small number of them took refuge with the Qiang people. The whole Hexi "cut their crops, dug them into the houses, razed the walls of the camps, and broke down the accumulations. There was a drought and a famine, and the locusts drove them away.

"Through a period of misfortunes, people were scattered and dispersed, died along the way, abandoned the old and weak, or became servants and concubines, losing more than half of them."

At that time, the tyrannical Dianling Qiang people even established a complete whole, from the Qiang marquis to the chief historian, Sima, school captain, etc., until the fifth year of the Yuan Dynasty, several leaders of the Dianling Qiang regime

Characters were assassinated one after another, and this time the Yunnan Qiang rebellion was gradually quelled.

However, it was precisely because of this large-scale rebellion of the Qiang people that the Han Dynasty's control over the Western Regions gradually weakened. "In the more than ten years since the Qiang rebellion, the soldiers and divisions of the army have not rested for a while. The expense of military travel

, more than 24 billion were spent on transportation and transport, and the government funds were exhausted. It extended to the inner counties, and countless people died on the border, and the two states of Liang were wasted." In the end, Emperor Shun of the Han Dynasty ordered a large-scale

The people who moved inward to Bingliang and Liangzhou were equivalent to handing over Bingliang and Liangzhou to the barbarians.

Ironically, now, first Dong Zhuo from Liangzhou is in power, and now Wang Yun from Bingzhou is in power...

However, overall, the Qiang and the Huns are more integrated than the Xiongnu. Many rebellions occurred, most of which were caused by various taxes and unfair treatment of the Qiang and Han people.

Prior to this, the Qiang people had often cooperated with the Han people in sending troops to conquer the Xiongnu or suppress rebellions as early as the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. Therefore, the relationship between them was not so bad that they were bitter and bitter.

The rulers of the Han Dynasty had similar attitudes towards the Qiang people as those of later generations. One type was more open-minded and advocated treating them with virtue and giving the Qiang people a way to live. The other type was like the butcher Duan Jiong, who advocated exterminating them all and willing to put them to death.

Quick. The two factions often attack each other, and then the emperor is responsible for making peace and adopting a compromise.

Located in Shangjun, the Qiang race in Xihe County is very complex. There are Shen Di race, No race, Qian race, Xigong race, and even some Shaodang race and Xianling race...

Anyway, the Qiang people are nomadic, and sometimes they merge together when they wander around. Just like the Baishi Qiang, they are actually a collection of several species, and then use Baishi as a totem to worship, forming a medium-to-large Qiang tribe.

The Qiang marshal Linagu laughed in front of the central tent and welcomed Ma Yan's arrival: "Your Majesty, Lord Baishi! Your distinguished guest! Your distinguished guest! Why is General Du Liao interested in coming here today?"

Seeing Lina Gu's old face that looked a little flamboyant and with an exaggerated smile, Ma Yan murmured in his heart. It was just as Fei Zhonglang expected, and then he smiled and said, "Has the handsome man had a lot of distinguished guests recently?"

Linagu was stunned for a moment, rolled his eyes twice, and said with a change of expression: "General Ma, I don't understand what you mean..."

Ma stretched out a palm, shook it back and forth a few times, and said: "What do you mean, doesn't the handsome man know best? There are twenty people..."

Lina Gu said angrily: "General Ma! What do you mean? You sent someone to spy on my tribe?!"

Ma Yan laughed twice and said with some disdain: "Twenty people are arrogantly showing off. They are afraid that others will not know along the way. Even a blind man can see it. Do you still want to peep?"

In fact, Xianbei's envoys were not as exaggerated as Ma Yan said, and they had to be known to everyone. However, Fei Qian recruited some barbarians as translators in Beiqu during this period, and there were many people who came and went.

Many people are familiar with each other, and most of the lower-class Hu people have no sense of confidentiality. A lot of information within the tribe is revealed inadvertently.

Linagu slaughtered sheep and cattle to entertain the Xianbei envoys, and the people in his tribe could get a bowl of mutton and beef offal soup. Naturally, they would also say a few words while chatting with each other. Under the inquiries of interested people,

, you can actually tell the color of Xianbei's horses.

Lina Gu was a little embarrassed and didn't know what to say.

Ma Yan paused briefly and said: "Brother Baishi is cautious, and I can understand this. The Xianbei tribe is very large and has a large number of people. It is really troublesome to deal with it. If you really fight against Xianbei, it will really be a headache. But does Xianbei have any problems?"

Let me tell you, they all have big problems now..."

Linagu looked at Ma Yan in surprise, and said doubtfully: "What's the problem?" Then he reacted instantly, and he eagerly invited Ma Yan to come into the tent and sit down, and asked him to serve some koumiss and dried meat.

He waved his hand and drove away the servants, and then looked at Ma Yan, hoping that he would clarify his doubts.

Ma Yan unceremoniously picked up the koumiss, drank a glass, and then said calmly: "Master Bu Dugen and Master Kebi Neng from Xianbei are at odds with each other, and they are about to start a fight. Isn't Brother Baishi going to fight?"

Are you willing to be a pioneer?"

Involved in the two major Xianbei tribes?

Rinagu's face looked like Bai Shi for a moment, and then he smiled reluctantly: "General Ma...don't be kidding, how is this possible?"

Ma Yan picked up a piece of dried mutton, put it in his mouth, tore it apart, and said vaguely: "Why don't you want to... When Xianbei fought, which one was the one who fought first?"

Linagu closed his mouth and frowned.

The Qiang people have always been a loser, falling on both sides. But the tragedy of the loser is this. They are often used as cannon fodder by people on both sides. When they cooperate with the Han people, they are ordered by the Han people. When they follow the Huns, they are used as vanguards by the Huns. Now they are deserted.

Xianbei dominates the north, so what Ma Yan said is not completely impossible.

Ma Yan threw the half-eaten dried mutton back onto the plate, clapped his hands, sipped his teeth, and said rudely: "Brother Baishi, think about it for yourself, follow us Han people, if nothing else, Fei

Since Zhonglang came to Bingzhou, he hasn't made you suffer, has he?"

"What if it's Xianbei? Huh?" Ma Yan stood up, straightened his clothes, and said, "Believe it or not, after this time, Xianbei will immediately send someone to ask you to go north to be a pioneer. Will you go or not?

Huh? If you don't want to go, who else can Brother Baishi ask for help? Okay, that's all, I'll leave first... No need to send it off, Brother Baishi, you should think more about it..."

Although Ma Yan said there was no need to send him away, he could really not send him away anywhere. Lina Gu sent Ma Yan out of the camp with a smile before turning around and returning to the big tent.

Linagu's son Zha Liu came in and asked: "Father, the Han people are also here...what should we do now?"

Lina Gu frowned and pondered for a long time before saying: "Let's wait and see before talking..."

Kong Ming said anxiously: "If your Majesty makes a mistake in conquering Wu and just loses these great achievements, what will happen to Adou?"

This sentence made Liu Bei anxious again, and he quickly came up and asked: "You said this again, are you cursing me or making me angry?"

When Zhuge asked, he remembered what happened the day before, and regretted that he had made a mistake again, and hurriedly laughed and said:

"Don't worry, I said it wrong. What's the matter? My muscles are jumping and my face is sweating with anxiety."

As he spoke, he couldn't help but step forward and reach out to try the sweat on his face.

Liu Bei looked at it for a long time and then said: "Don't worry".

After Zhuge heard this, he was stunned for a long time and then said: "Why am I worried? I don't understand this. Can you tell me why I am worried or not?"



ps: Does the author feel that this paragraph should be referred to Baidi City, which is really excellent...
