Chapter 540: Qiang Orchard, asking for help from Tibet
Chapter 540: Qiang Orchard seeks help from Tibet
Everyone stood up and sent Ye Mao out of the hall.
However, just when Ye Mao was about to leave the main hall, he suddenly stopped and said to the person sitting at the end: "Orchard, come with me, there are a few government officials in the government.
happiness……"
This Wujia is also from the Qiang ethnic group, and is considered one of the more capable people among the younger generation.
It is of course not easy for the Qiang people to control a prefect! Therefore, except for some small and medium-sized officials who are all arranged by the Qiang people, even the government servants and others in the prefect are also members of the Qiang tribe.
And this Wujia was the one who was arranged by Guwu to deal with these matters with Ye Mao.
Originally, Orchard was not an elder in the clan, but he took this opportunity to step into the hall and become one of the core members of the Qiang clan.
Wujia looked at Guwu subconsciously, and Guwu waved his hand indifferently! Wujia just had to make the decision regarding some government affairs, and they still had to discuss important matters.
So, Orchard stood up and followed Ye Mao out of the hall.
After the two left, Gu Wu opened his mouth and said to everyone, "It seems that the Song Army's intention to suppress us is very obvious! So, what should we do next?
Should we completely avoid its edge, or should we find a way to fight the Song army."
As Guwu spoke, everyone below also started to shout.
Some people think that we should retreat to preserve our strength, while others want to fight the Song army and give the Song army a powerful blow. In short, everyone has their own opinions.
The discussion was so heated that no one even paid attention to Orchard who returned.
However, this is normal. These people have never paid attention to a junior from Orchard. How can he have the qualifications to speak about such a big matter?
However, things are so strange! Just when everyone was discussing happily, Orchard suddenly stood up, saluted Guwu, and then said: "The patriarch, I have some ideas..."
Everyone stopped talking, and Gu Wu was also stunned.
However, he didn't think too much and just said directly, "Well, you are also a core member of our Qiang tribe now. If you have any ideas, just say it."
Wu Jie nodded, "Clan chief, elders! This time the Song army comes, the biggest enemy should be the Tubo people.
But now, we have become the target of the Song Army! This is naturally extremely disadvantageous for our clan.
Moreover, judging from what Magistrate Ye said, a battle between us and the Song army should be inevitable.
Otherwise, if we just refuse, we will not only lose a lot of territory, but also make our tribes feel dissatisfied! However, if we force ourselves to fight, we will probably suffer great damage..."
"What on earth do you want to say..." an elder frowned and spoke.
Na Wujia paused and continued, "I just want to say that this battle is supposed to be a confrontation between the Tubo people and the Song army. Why is it consuming the strength of our Qiang people?
We dragged the Song army here in Maozhou, but the Tubo people just watched the show and continued to take advantage of the opportunity to carry out conquests. What good does this do to us Qiang people?
Therefore, I thought that we should ask the Tubo people for help! Let the Tubo people come to fight this battle with the Song army.
After all, we are now really helping the Tubo people."
Orchard's words stunned everyone present. This... seems to be what happened. Aren't he and others working for the Tubo people now?
Although the Qiang people have indeed united with the Tubo people, they will also be enemies sooner or later in the future...
Gu Wu looked at Orchard with a little more admiration.
This young generation of the Qiang people has a successor! Although this Orchard is not talkative on weekdays, he is still useful at critical moments.
"Moreover, it would be best if the Tubo people could send a large army.
When the time comes, we, the Qiang people, will just reap the benefits.
If they are unwilling to come, then since we Qiang people have contributed to the Tubo people, shouldn't they give us some compensation?
I think that although it is not the behavior of a gentleman to resort to some tricks, it is worth it for the sake of the strength of our Qiang people."
"This battle is naturally inevitable, so if it can bring us enough benefits, our efforts for the Tubo people will not be in vain..."
When Orchard finished speaking, the hall fell silent! Yes, they were shocked by Orchard's sudden whim.
"Hahaha..." Gu Wu laughed loudly, breaking the peace in the hall, "Okay, Orchard, very good! You are indeed one of the most outstanding young people of our Qiang people.
Before, our attention was all on the soldiers of the Song Dynasty, you can still think of these, yes, yes!"
Afterwards, Guwu said to everyone, "The leader of this clan thinks that Wujia's words are reasonable. Since we are doing our best for the Tubo people, why should they watch the show?
So, my clan leader decided to ask for help from the Tibetans, what do you think?"
Naturally, no one would object to something like this that had only advantages and no disadvantages! Immediately, there was a chorus of approval.
"So, where should we ask for help, and who should we send?"
An elder asked.
Gu Wu glanced around and saw that no one spoke, so he smiled and said to Orchard, "Orchard, tell me!"
Orchard stood up again, saluted everyone and said, "Clan chief, elders, I think that there is not much chance of the Tubo people sending troops to fight the Song army.
Therefore, we should try our best to get the Tubo people to give us some benefits, and then find a way to deal with the Song army. This is the most practical approach for us, the Qiang people."
As soon as this statement came out, everyone couldn't help but nodded.
The Tubo people are not fools. Now that they are holding back the Song army, it is too late for the Tubo people to enjoy themselves. How could they get involved?
No matter who wins or loses between the Qiang people and the Song Dynasty, it will only benefit the Tubo people.
"So, we don't need to think so much! Now, the Tubo people have a large army to besiege Chengdu. This matter is extremely important to the Tubo people.
Therefore, we directly sent people to Jiulong or Chengdu Prefecture to tell them that if they did not send a large army, they would give us Qiang enough benefits.
Otherwise, we Qiang people will most likely join forces with the Song army and attack Chengdu Prefecture.
Come to think of it, those Tibetans dare not refuse to agree to our request."
Seeing everyone's eyes falling on him, and seeing the encouraging eyes of the Guwu Clan Chief, Wujia hesitated for a moment and then said loudly, "In addition, this matter requires hard work, so there is no need for the elders to take action.
If the clan leader allows it, I am willing to contribute to our clan and go to Jiulong or Chengdu Mansion in person. If things fail, I am willing to bear any responsibility and be punished by the clan!"
"good!"
Guwu's eyes were full of surprises. This kid from Orchard was simply the mainstay of the Qiang people!
