He looked at Li Su and said, "What brings you to my camp?"
Even the leaders of the Greedy Wolf Tribe and the Agni Fire Tribe would not speak to him in such a tone and with such eyes.
If Li Su hadn't looked so confident, Niu Shisan wouldn't have wanted to hear what he had to say, so he would have taken him out and chopped off Li Su's head.
Li Su said: "I want to show the leader a way to survive."
Niu Shisan sneered and said: "I have three thousand warriors here, and there are warriors from Greed Wolf, Liehuo and other tribes around me. I still want you to show me a way to live? Or let me show you a way to die." p>
Li Su laughed loudly and said: "It's ridiculous, it's ridiculous."
Li Su seemed to care about his own life and death, and just looked at Niu Shisan like a fool.
Niu Shisan, the dignified leader of the Niu Li tribe, was actually a little embarrassed by Li Su. He was about to scold Li Su and ordered his men to take Li Su down and chop him down.
Li Su seemed to have guessed Niu Shisan's plan in advance and said, "Yesterday, someone from the Fire Tribe crossed the Yellow River. Do you know?"
Niu Shisan was shocked and asked: "Why are they crossing the river?"
Li Su chuckled lightly and said, "I want to join forces with my general."
Niu Shisan shook his head and said: "Impossible, this is impossible."
Li Su said: "It's not impossible. I don't want to see the Niu Li tribe being used as a gunman without even knowing it, and having to sacrifice my life for others."
Niu Shisan said: "Since the Han army is joining forces with the Fire Tribe, why do they still come to me?"
Li Su said: "The Fire Tribe's ambitions are too great, and my general doesn't like them."
Niu Shisan thought for a while and said: "Then the Han army wants to join forces with my Niu Li tribe?"
Li Su nodded and said calmly: "How to choose the leader?"
Niu Shisan said: "What benefits do I gain from joining forces with the Han army?"
Li Su stretched out a finger and said: "First, the Niu Li tribe does not have to worry about being exterminated."
Then he stretched out a second finger and said: "Second, the Niu Li tribe will become the most powerful tribe among the Qiang people."
He stretched out a third finger and said slowly: "Three, the big man is willing to trade with the Niu Li tribe. Salt and iron can be traded."
Niu Shisan could no longer restrain his face and showed a look of surprise, but he still controlled it and did not get carried away by the benefits. He deliberately said coldly: "Then what do I, the Niu Li tribe, want to do?"
Li Su calmly said: "Submit yourself to the Han and obey the orders of the Han's right general from now on."
Niu Shisan said: "Can you allow me to think about it?"
Li Su said: "The leader can think about it as long as he wants, but the Rooster Tribe next door probably won't hesitate for too long."
Niu Shisan said immediately: "Okay, I agree."
Although he will become a puppet in the future, in exchange for the strength of the Niu Li tribe, Niu Shisan has nothing to hesitate.
He doesn't care about the life or death of other tribes.
What's more, the Niu Li tribe may not necessarily become puppets in the future. When the Niu Li tribe becomes the most powerful tribe among the Qiang people, they will be able to get rid of the control of the Han people.
Li Su said: "In this case, please ask the leader to write a letter in his own hand, and I will take it back and explain it to the general."
The Qiang people do not have their own written language, and there are even fewer people who can understand Chinese characters, but as a tribal leader, they can still understand it a little.
It's just that the handwriting is crooked, not even as good as a child from a wealthy family.
There are still a lot of typos and the sentences are not fluent, but it is still possible and the meaning can be seen.
Li Su looked at Niu Shisan, holding a writing brush tightly, and the corners of his mouth twitched vaguely.
Fortunately, he still held back, and his goal had been achieved. There was no need for him to mock Niu Shisan, lest it would be counterproductive. Niu Shisan became so angry that he chopped off his head.
Li Su will still grasp this degree.
Niu Shisan didn't think there was anything wrong with his handwriting. He even felt that he was very good, so he handed the sheepskin to Li Su with a bit of pride.
"This leader can also write Han Chinese characters."
Li Su complained in his heart, but still flattered him, saying: "The word "leader" is very elegant, like a cow leader."
Niu Shisan laughed and said: "I think so too."
Li Su put away the sheepskin and prepared to leave.
Niu Shisan personally sent Li Su out of the camp.
Li Su took the boat directly and returned to the south bank of the Yellow River.
Then he came directly to see Wang Ding and handed the sheepskin to Wang Ding.
Wang Ding picked up the sheepskin and looked at the crooked words on it. It was difficult to identify what it meant.
There are less than a hundred words on a piece of sheepskin.
The content is also very simple, that is, the Niu Li tribe is willing to obey Wang Ding’s orders from today on.
After Wang Ding read it, he handed the sheepskin to Jia Xu and said, "Sir, the Niuli tribe is willing to surrender. Do you want to persuade another tribe to surrender?"
Li Su only made one trip and convinced the Niu Li tribe, making Wang Ding feel that it was quite simple to instigate rebellion against the Qiang people.
On the other side of the river, Qiang tribes, large and small, totaled 30,000 troops.
A Niuli tribe only accounts for one-tenth.
If we instigate rebellion against several tribes, we can directly capture the Qiang people.
Jia Xu shook his head and said: "There is no need to incite rebellion against other tribes for the time being."
Wang Ding said: "Why?"
In his opinion, the more enemies you can instigate, the better.
Jia Xu said: "If there are too many rebellions, even if some Qiang people are killed this time, the strength of the Qiang people will not be weakened much. After the lord returns, the Hetao will still be the Qiang people's Hetao."
Even if the tribe that was instigated to rebel is still willing to obey Wang Ding's orders, over time, it will inevitably sprout again.
After all, the Qiang people are not easy to control.
One tribe or two tribes is fine, but if there are more, it actually means there is no change.
In Jia Xu's view, if he wanted the Loop to fall firmly into the hands of the Han, he would have to kill the Qiang people.
The thirty thousand Qiang army on the other side of the Yellow River is best to be wiped out.
Even though Li Su had already instigated the rebellion of the Niu Li tribe, Jia Xu would not mind and let Wang Ding destroy the Niu Li tribe together if there was a chance.
If all the 30,000 Qiang troops die here, the Hetao will completely fall under the control of the Han, and within ten years, the Qiang people will not be able to recover.
Either they would be honest and let the Han people manage them, or they could take the old, weak, women and children and escape to other places.
Also, it is easy to instigate rebellion, but if Li Su is allowed to run to the other side frequently, he will eventually be discovered.
You don’t need many people to instigate rebellion. The three thousand people from the Niu Li tribe are enough.
Jia Xu knew very well that if one-tenth of a troop of soldiers secretly caused trouble, it would be enough to affect the other 90% of the people.
Army sergeants and soldiers are the easiest to influence each other.
When one person charges without fear of death, dozens of people around him can follow suit.
When one person runs away in fear, it can also cause dozens of people around him to run away.
