Ma Yan led a team of men and horses to the station of the Baishi Qiang people.

Baishiqiang belongs to Dongqiang.

Dongqiang and Xiqiang have been different since ancient times, but in the Han Dynasty, because of the repeated rebellions of Xiqiang, the history and records of Xiqiang are relatively detailed, while Dongqiang is relatively rare in writing.

In the Han Dynasty, there were many Qiang people in Sanfu, most of them were "Dongqiang", they moved from the Dahe, Huangshui, and Taohe River basins of Jincheng County many times before, and some of them migrated from Longxi, Beidi, and Anding counties.

In the process of the development of the Qiang people, once also strong for a while, in the fifth year of Yongchu, the Qiang power extended to Longxi, Anding, Beidi, Shangjun and other counties of the county seat of the place, at that time many Taishou, the county commander one had no will to fight, the two were also unable to fight, most of them fled, and a small number of them took refuge in the Qiang people. The whole Hexi "mowed its crops, penetrated the chambers, razed the camp walls, and broke and accumulated." When there is a drought and a famine of locusts, they are driven away and scattered, and they die with the way, or they abandon the old and the weak, or they become servants and concubines, and lose half of them."

At that time, the strong Yunnan Lingqiang people even established a complete whole, from the Qiang Houjun to the long history, Sima, school captain, etc., until the early five years of the Yuan Dynasty, several leaders of the Yunnan Lingqiang regime were assassinated successively, and this time the Yunnan Lingqiang rebellion was gradually quelled.

But it is precisely because of this large-scale rebellion of the Qiang people that the Han Dynasty's control over the Western Regions has gradually weakened. The cost of the military service, the transfer commission, with more than 24 billion yuan, is empty. Extending to the inner county, the border people died innumerable, and the two states of Liang were wasted", and finally Emperor Shun of the Han Dynasty ordered a large-scale internal relocation of the people of the two states of Liang, which was equivalent to giving up the two states of Liang to the Hu people.

Ironically, at present, Dong Zhuo of Liangzhou is in power, and then Wang Yun, a native of Liangzhou, is in power......

However, on the whole, the Qiang and Xiongnu had a higher degree of integration than the Xiongnu, and many rebellions, most of which were caused by various taxes and unfair treatment of the Qiang and Han Chinese. Prior to this, as early as the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the Qiang people had already cooperated with the Han people to send troops to conquer the Xiongnu or quell the rebellion, so the relationship between them was not bad to the point of bitterness and hatred.

The rulers of the Han Dynasty had a similar attitude towards the Qiang people as in later generations, one was more open-minded, advocating virtue and giving the Qiang people a way to live. One is like Tu Bo Duan Cheng, who advocates killing them all, and he will want to put them to death and then hurry up. The two factions often attacked each other, and then the emperor took charge and thinned the mud, taking a middle ground.

The Qiang races located in the area of Shangjun and Xihe are very complex, including Shen Yi species, all no species, pious race, Xiaogong race, and even some burnt dang species and Xian zero species......

Anyway, the Qiang people are nomadic, and sometimes they are fused together, just like Baishi Qiang, in fact, it is also a collection of several species, and then worship with Baishi as a totem, forming a medium and large Qiang tribe.

The Qiang man handsome Li Nagu smiled in front of the central tent and greeted Ma Yan's arrival: "The white stone god is above!" Ladies and gentlemen! Guest! How could General Du Liao be interested in coming here today? ”

Seeing the slightly flamboyant and exaggerated smile of the old face of Linagu, Ma Yan muttered in his heart, as expected, and then said with a smile: "Hao Shuai has had a lot of distinguished guests recently, right?" ”

Li Nagu froze slightly, his eyes rolled twice, and he said with a little change of color: "General Ma, I don't understand what you mean......

The horse stretched out a slap, shook it back and forth a few times, and said, "What do you mean, isn't Hao Shuai the best?" Twenty people......"

Rina 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 swaggering, and along the way, I am afraid that others will not know, and even the blind can see it, so do you want to peep?" ”

In fact, the envoy of Xianbei is not as exaggerated as Ma Yan said, and he has to get to the point where passers-by know about it, but Fei Qian has recruited some Hu people as translators in Beiqu during this period of time, and there are many people who are familiar with each other, and most of the Hu people at the lower level have no sense of secrecy, and there are many news in the tribe, which is also inadvertently revealed.

The Xianbei envoy who killed sheep and slaughtered cattle in Linagu could get a bowl of haggis and beef offal soup or something, and naturally they would say a few words when chatting with each other.

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

Ma Yan paused for a moment and said, "Brother Baishi is cautious, I can understand this. The Xianbei tribe is very large and has a large number of people, and it is indeed troublesome to deal with, if it is really evil with Xianbei, it is indeed a headache, but did Xianbei tell you that they have a big problem now......"

Rinagu looked at Ma Yan in surprise and said in disbelief, "What's the problem?" Then he reacted instantly, and very earnestly invited Ma Yan to sit in the big tent, and asked people to serve some mare's milk wine, dried meat, etc., and waved his hand to drive everyone away, and then looked at Ma Yan, hoping that he would solve his doubts.

Ma Yan unceremoniously picked up the mare's milk wine, drank a glass, and then said unhurriedly: "Lord Xianbei Budugen and Master Kirby Neng have made enemies, and now they are about to fight, are the Baishi brothers willing to act as a pioneer?" ”

Involved in the two Xianbei tribes?

Rinagu's face was like a white stone for a moment, and then he smiled reluctantly: "General Ma...... No kidding, how is this possible? ”

Ma Yan picked up a piece of dried mutton, put it in his mouth and tore it, and said vaguely: "Why don't you want to...... Xianbei battle, which time was the first Xianbei person to go up? ”

Rinagu closed his mouth and frowned.

The Qiang people have always been grass on the wall, falling on both sides. However, the tragedy of the grass on the wall is also this, often used as cannon fodder by people on both sides, instructed by the Han people when cooperating with the Han people, and used by the Xiongnu as a pioneer when following the Xiongnu, and now Mobei is Xianbei Dominance, so the situation that Ma Yan said is not completely impossible.

Ma Yan threw the half-eaten dried mutton back on the plate, clapped his palms, slurped between his teeth, and said very unceremoniously: "Brother Baishi, think about it yourself, follow us Han people, don't say anything else, after Fei Zhonglang came to Bingzhou, he didn't let you suffer, right?" ”

"What if it's replaced by Xianbei? Well? 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 when the time comes?" Well? If you don't want to go, who else can the Shiraishi brothers ask for help? Okay, that's it, I'll go first...... You don't have to send it, Brother Shiraishi, you better think about it......"

Although Ma Yan said that he didn't need to send it, where could he really not send it, Rina Gu sent Ma Yan out of the camp with a smile before turning around and returning to the big tent.

Rinaghu's son, Zaliu, walked in and asked, "Father, the Han people are here too...... What are we going to do now? ”

Li Nagu frowned, and muttered for a long time before saying, "Drag it first, and then talk about ......"
