He actually... actually asked us to move out of Sanchuan...
Nearly ten large and small tribes in Luodi, including the Huiyang Tribe of the Yi Tribe and the Lun Tribe of the Yi Tribe, were both angry and annoyed after hearing Zhao Hongrun's order.
Only then did they realize that they had made a wrong decision.
Of course, this wrong decision did not refer to surrendering to the Wei army, but to the fact that they listened to the instigation of Rabitu, the leader of the Black Sheep tribe, and foolishly chose the path of becoming an enemy of Wei.
Well, now, the young but powerful King Su of Wei in front of them has sternly ordered them to move out of Sanchuan. They will lose the land they used to live on, but where can they go after leaving Sanchuan?
The Beidi in the north is the territory of the Hu people, and their fighting power is no less than that of the Jie people. It seems that if these tribes go to the North, they will most likely be cannibalized by the Hu people with different beliefs.
Just like the beliefs of both sides, the Yi, Jie, and Yi tribes believe in the God of the Plateau, a god with a sheep's head and a human body who lives in the plateau; while the Hu people believe in the Gaolang, a legendary creature as big as an ox.
Grassland mythical beast.
Because of their beliefs, a small number of Yi people who refused to continue to inherit the Yi culture gradually integrated into the Hu people's culture. The vast majority of the Yi, Jie and Yi tribes have always had a tepid relationship with the Hu people.
The degree of fire.
Among them, the Jie people have the worst relationship with the Hu people, and they often clash with the Hu tribes in the north: today the Hu people gather to rob the Jie people's sheep, and tomorrow the Jie people join forces to attack the Hu tribe camps and capture the Hu people.
People are domesticated and become slaves of their own tribe.
You know, the Jiejiao tribe alone has more than 200,000 slaves. Where did these people come from? They were not robbed by attacking the Hu tribes who captured the Northland.
But the problem is that the vast majority of the Yi and Yi people are not like the Jie people who are all soldiers and can conquer and fight well. They are just nomadic people who live peacefully and peacefully in the fertile land of Sanchuan. Why?
Maybe they defeated the Northland Hu tribe whose fighting power was no less than that of the Jie tribe?
And if you move to the south, the south is the national boundary between Wei, Chu and Ba. It is a sinful land that no one cares about, filled with countless bandits, villains, and bandits, competing for each other.
Taking over the mountain as king is a far more chaotic place than the ancient Cai land on the Wei-Chu border, and it will definitely not be a good place for people like them to live in peace.
"Everyone, please."
Zhao Hongrun expressed the meaning of seeing off guests.
There were nearly ten clan leaders from the Hui Sheep Tribe of the Yi Tribe, the Lun Tribe of the Yi Tribe, and other tribesmen of various sizes in the Luodi area. You looked at me, I looked at you, and they left the felt tent in a daze.
After these people left, Zhao Hongrun once again set his sights on the tribe leaders Aries, Meng, Hydroxy, and He. The smiles on their faces could no longer be described as enthusiasm alone.
"Four of you, now I will discuss trade issues with the four of you."
I saw Zhao Hongrun move to the patriarch Halegoh, sit on the ground without caring, and said with a smile: "This is what I think. I hope to build this Luocheng into a city that we, the Wei Dynasty, and the nobles can jointly maintain."
In the market, we can exchange what we have. In the first three years, our caravan from the Wei Dynasty rushed to Luocheng to trade with various tribes and trade many items including furs, horses, etc. Of course, in the past few years,
Weapons must be classified as controlled items. After a few years, you have gained the trust of me, the Wei Dynasty. Then, it will not be a problem even if I, the Wei Dynasty, give your tribes weapons... In addition, starting from the fourth year,
Your tribes can also organize caravans to do business in our territory of Wei Dynasty. Our country welcomes your visit..."
As Halegoh and the other four clan chiefs looked at each other, Zhao Hongrun talked a lot about the trade between the two sides, and emphasized fairness, voluntariness, and safety as the principles for trade between the two sides, which made Halegoh and others
Yearning for it happily.
It is no exaggeration to say that at this moment, Halegoh and the other four clan leaders only felt scared because the gap between the attitude of King Su of Wei in front of them towards them and the attitude towards the nearly ten clan leaders was really huge.
They were frightened. Yes, at this moment, the four clan chiefs like Halegoh were frightened, because the young King Su of Wei in front of him, the regulations on how to get along between Wei and Sichuan proposed by him were really too great.
Being generous is very beneficial to the tribes in their Sanchuan land.
Of course, it is undeniable that Wei will also make huge profits from such trade, but the key is, who among the countries or tribes that have traded with their Sanchuan tribe in the past will propose fairness, voluntariness, and safety that are so reassuring
Trading principles? Aren’t you going to cheat whoever you catch?
Therefore, Halegoh and others felt extremely sorry for the situation of the nearly ten patriarchs: the patriarchs who were enemies of the Wei State due to the bonfire raised by the leader of the Black Sheep Patriarch, may have missed the opportunity in recent decades.
It is even the biggest opportunity in the past hundred years, an opportunity that can make the people in the tribe live a better life.
As for the question of whether Wei still wants to take back the land of Sanchuan, the four patriarchs present no longer doubt it, because in the trade between the two sides described by Zhao Hongrun, and in the grand blueprint he painted, Wei and Sichuan can live in peace and harmony.
The profits from trade are far greater than if the two sides go to war and spark another war.
Even Meng Liang, the patriarch of the Meng tribe of the Yi ethnic group who still had some prejudice against Sima An and the Dangshan army, could not care about the fact that the Hu tribe was destroyed by the Dangshan army at the moment and listened attentively.
He followed Zhao Hongrun's statement and nodded in agreement with satisfaction from time to time.
After the general trading principles and regulations were explained, the four patriarchs present were very satisfied. The only thing that concerned them at the moment was probably the nearly ten people who had just been expelled from the felt tent by Zhao Hongrun, and who would be expelled by the Wei army in the future.
The rest of the clan chiefs of Sanchuan Land.
With the intention of interceding on their behalf, Halegoh tentatively asked Zhao Hongrun: "Dear King Su, can you be accommodating to those patriarchs? In fact, they were under the influence of Rabbi, the patriarch of the Black Sheep Tribe.
The charm of the picture
Confused. You must also know that the Black Sheep Tribe has already surrendered to the Jiejiao Tribe... If those clan leaders had known about King Su's magnanimity and the goodwill of the Wei State early on, they would never have any chance of fighting with you and your country again.
The enemy’s thoughts.”
After hearing this, Zhao Hongrun thought for a moment, then shook his head and said in the Shen language with embarrassment: "Chief of the Halegoh tribe, no matter what the purpose of those tribe chiefs were to be enemies of our army, they did do that.
Yes, isn't it?...There are some things you can say
I don’t like to hear it, but I still want to say it. This time I personally led the army to this land of three rivers. Firstly, it was for the excuse proposed by Wei Dynasty a while ago, and secondly, it was to consolidate our country.
Antai on the west side of Wei... To be honest with you, we, the Wei Dynasty, and Korea in the north are very different from each other.
We are currently in a stalemate between the two countries, and a war may break out. Therefore, I hope to rectify the Sanchuan land before the war breaks out, and drive away the three tribes of Yi, Jie, and Yi who are hostile to us, the Wei Dynasty.
In the north, as I said, only people like you can
Only those tribes that are willing to continue to abide by the Wusu Oath and live in harmony with each other with me, the Wei Dynasty, will be allowed to thrive in this land... I, the Wei Dynasty, need friends and allies, but I don’t need any or
Neighbors who may be at war with me in the Great Wei Dynasty."
Halegoch and the other four clan leaders looked at each other and nodded slightly.
Indeed, Zhao Hongrun's words were very rude, and he bluntly revealed his intention to drive the Jie tribe and some of the Sheang and Yi tribes out of Sanchuan. However, the four chiefs including Halegoh unexpectedly had no objectionable emotions.
, after all, Zhao Hongrun said it very frankly. If it were them, would they tolerate an unfriendly neighbor?
"But in this case, will it push those tribes to the Jiejiao tribe?" Meng Liang, the patriarch of the Meng tribe, suggested.
Zhao Hongrun chuckled when he heard this and said calmly: "If those clan leaders really made such irrational choices, then I can only express my regret... The Jiejiao Tribe is bound to be defeated by me when I send troops this time.
To eradicate the destroyed Jie tribe, I can spare those clan leaders once, but only this time."
"..." Halegoh and the other four clan leaders looked slightly moved when they heard this. After all, Zhao Hongrun's calm tone revealed his strong confidence in destroying Jiejiao.
Recalling the two terrifying war weapons possessed by the Wei army, the four clan chiefs had no doubts as to why King Su of Wei in front of them was so confident.
Just when they didn't know how to answer the call, Zongwei He Miao's request for instructions suddenly came from outside the tent.
"Your Highness, there is a person asking to see you. It seems to be one of those clan leaders just now."
Halegoh, the patriarch of the Aries tribe, and Meng Liang, the patriarch of the Meng tribe, may have understood the Wei dialect. They looked at Zhao Hongrun intentionally or unintentionally when they heard the words. The other two tribe chiefs seemed a little confused.
After glancing at Harlegoch and Meng Liang, Zhao Hongrun thought for a moment and said, "Invite him in."
Not long after, Zongwei led a clan leader into the felt tent. Zhao Hongrun, Halegoh and Meng Liang took a closer look and realized that the person who came was actually the clan leader of the Lun clan of the Fang people.
"Lu Balong..." Meng Liang looked at the visitor in surprise, and then he seemed to have guessed something, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
Just as he expected, after entering the felt tent, Lu Balong, the leader of the Lun clan of the Yi tribe, knelt down in front of Zhao Hongrun with a thud. To be more precise, he should have prostrated on the ground and said in a begging tone: "Lu Balong
, shamelessly begging King Su of the Wei State to spare a favor for our Lun clan... Our Lun clan
We have nothing left. If we lose this piece of land for survival again, the people of our tribe will starve to death or become slaves of other tribes... If King Su is unwilling to pardon our tribe, Lu Balong and my tribe will ask
Die. Since we can’t survive anyway, let the soldiers of your army stab and kill our people.”
Zhao Hongrun frowned when he heard this, and said in the Shen language with some displeasure: "Chief Lubalong, are you threatening me?"
After hearing this, before Lu Balong opened his mouth to explain, Meng Liang, the patriarch of the Meng clan, rushed to the rescue and said: "King Su, please don't be angry. Chief Lu Balong has no choice. King Su may not know, Lun clan
All the tribe's savings and wealth were destroyed in that sea of fire..."
With that said, Meng Liang told Zhao Hongrun exactly what happened when the Shang Shui Army used oil barrel bombs to burn down the Lun tribe's tribal camp.
Hearing this, Zhao Hongrun's face brightened slightly. (To be continued.)
