Chapter 387: Different Options

"It's really a great help to our army, Patriarch Wuwu."

Zhao Hongrun said to Wu Wu in front of Sima An, the general of the Dangshan Army, and the generals of the Dangshan Army under his command.

As he said this, they were drinking normal water.

It turned out that as early as Wuwu reminded the Dangshan army of the tactics used by the Qiang people, as early as when the advance cavalry of the Dangshan tribe had not polluted the water source of the river stream, the soldiers of the Dangshan army had dug several deep pits on the other side of this low hill, and then dug a canal to introduce the water of the river stream, which was still of high quality at that time, into those deep pits and used as a reservoir.

When the pool was filled with water, the soldiers of the Dangshan Army filled in the canal.

Therefore, even if the advance cavalry of the Qiang tribe polluted the water source of the river, the Dangshan army still had high-quality water to drink.

Although the reserves of this water were not large, they were more than enough to maintain the three-day period that Sima An pleaded with Zhao Hongrun.

And all of this is the credit of Wu Wu, the young patriarch of the Qingyang tribe.

Even Sima An had to admit that if there was no reminder from Wu Wu, their Dangshan army would definitely fall into the embarrassment of having no water to drink, and they could only be forced to drink those polluted water sources, and then their stomachs were damaged by those stinky waters, they were sick and diarrhea, and they were weak and weak.

On the battlefield, if a soldier catches a disease, even if it is just a diarrhea that weakens his body, it is enough to pronounce him dead.

As for Zhao Hongrun's praise, Wu Wu said with a smile: "Since I have decided to help His Royal Highness King Su, I am naturally wholeheartedly. â€Ļâ€Ļ My Qingyang tribe has always treated friends wholeheartedly and will never betray each other's friendship. ”

Not to mention, his honest appearance and words that showed his heart made the generals of the Dangshan Army have a good impression of Wuwu, and even with it, it has also changed a lot of views for the Qingyang tribe, which still maintains neutrality.

"Do you want to say anything to the Wuwu of the Qingyang tribe of the Qing Tribe?"

Afterwards, Zhao Hongrun asked Sima Andao, after all, Sima An's expression at that time was a little subtle, as if there was a kind of "long-standing belief has collapsed slightly".

"It's just nice to say." Sima An replied expressionlessly: "The Qingyang tribe is a branch of the Qing tribe, and the Qing tribe and the Qian people are the same group, how can he help my Great Wei deal with the Qi people?" ”

"But he did, didn't he?" Zhao Hongrun said with a smile: "If it weren't for the information that Wu Wu revealed to me, especially the water issue, I believe that the current situation of my Dangshan Army would not be so good, right?" ”

"......" Sima An was silent.

After a long time, he said in a deep voice: "Even so, it's just one of them." â€Ļâ€Ļ The Qingyang tribe still has a neutral attitude of "wise self-preservation", right? ”

"That's not an exaggeration." Zhao Hongrun said with a smile: "The general Fang Cai also said that the people of the Qing tribe and the people of the Qi tribe are on the same side, and the Qingyang tribe is neutral in this case, and to be honest, it is actually biased towards my Great Wei, isn't it?" ”

"......" Sima An was speechless.

It's no wonder, after all, that he wasn't a man of good words.

After a long time, he nodded slowly, and said in a reluctant tone, "Excuse me...... For the time being, the Qingyang tribe is regarded as a friendly neighbor of my Great Wei, but a certain will say ugly things in front, if these people betray the trust of my Great Wei and the trust of His Royal Highness King Su, then when the time comes, a certain person will lead an army to level this tribe! ”

Listening to Sima An's threatening tone, Zhao Hongrun suddenly smiled and teased: "The people of the Qi tribe ...... The general just used "the people of the Qing tribe" to refer to the people of the Qingyang tribe, not the "Yin Rong" a while ago! ”

"......" Sima An opened his mouth and left angrily.

"What a dishonest guy......

Looking at Sima An's departing back, Zhao Hongrun shook his head speechlessly.

I have to say that no matter from which point of view, Sima An, the general, can be called the most troublesome of the four known generals of the 'Sixth Battalion of the Garrison'.

But it is undeniable that this great general, who once held the mentality of 'slaughtering all the people of my race', now recognizes, even if only temporarily, the Wuwu and Qingyang tribes, which can be called a major change.

And this major change made Zhao Hongrun feel a very strong sense of achievement.

"Next, it's up to the people of Gong and Ru and the people of the Qiang people...... I hope they don't make the wrong choice.'"

Standing on the low hill and looking in the direction of the land, Zhao Hongrun muttered in his heart.

At the same time, in the land, several tribes of the Qiang and the Qiang tribes living in the local area, as Zhao Hongrun and Sima An estimated, the patriarchs of the local tribes were gathering together to discuss a major event that would affect the entire Sanchuan.

That is, to choose between the Wei State and the Qianjiao tribe.

These tribes are not particularly strong tribes, they can only be regarded as small and medium-sized tribes in the land of Sanchuan, after all, the really powerful tribes generally live alone in a certain area, and only some small and medium-sized tribes with insufficient strength will live together in a group to prevent invasion by foreign enemies.

Among the tribes that participated in this meeting, there were the "White Sheep" tribe and the "Gray Sheep" tribe of the Shan people, as well as the "Lun" tribe, the "Xu tribe", the "Meng" tribe and so on.

As the initiator of this meeting, the patriarch of the "Black Sheep" tribe of the Qiang tribe, Rabittu, is actively persuading the tribal patriarchs present to join the side of the Qiang people and support the Qiang tribe's war against Wei.

In fact, the Black Sheep tribe is not a tribe of the Shan tribe that lives near the land, and he did not participate in the invitation of the Wei State to hunt together. This time, he was entrusted by the patriarch of the Kajiao tribe, Bitatu, to make a special trip to the land to persuade the local tribal chiefs.

“â€Ļâ€Ļ The Wei people are the foreign enemies who slaughtered our people, and the Qi people are our compatriots. Do you patriarchs want to watch as foreign enemies continue to slaughter our people? â€Ļâ€Ļ Don't think that the Wei State didn't think about retaking the land of Sanchuan, sooner or later they would start a war with our clan over this land, they are the enemies of our clan, and they are butchers dressed in the skin of kindness! ”

"This guy...... I'm afraid I've already taken refuge in the Karma people, right?'

The patriarch of the Aries tribe, Halgohe, sat in the felt tent of the meeting, and when he heard this, he glanced at the patriarch of the Black Sheep tribe, Rabitu.

Like the Qingyang tribe, the Aries tribe had a good impression of Wei, not to mention that during the hunting period, the Tiger Ben Guards of Wei also assisted them in repelling the horse thieves of the great thief Huanhu, minimizing the losses of the Aries tribe.

Therefore, the patriarch of the Aries tribe, Halgohe, had always hoped to repay this favor, so in the final vote of Hejia, he supported Wei together with the Qingyang tribe and agreed to Wei's "borrowing" request.

Unfortunately, despite this, Wei only received a pitiful six votes, which led to Wei's final decision to use force as a solution.

Of course, there is another reason, although the Black Sheep Tribe, the White Sheep Tribe, and the Green Sheep Tribe all belong to the Shan tribe, this tribe has always had a bad reputation.

Just like one year, the people of the Black Sheep tribe actually went to snatch the sheep grazing by the Qingyang tribe, and as a result, they were defeated by the Qingyang tribe with the assistance of several Wei people (Zhao Yuanli and his party), which was shameful and humiliating.

Therefore, the patriarch of the Aries tribe, Halgohe, opened his mouth and said, "Support the Horned tribe? Doesn't this mean tearing up the skin with the Wei State? Do you want us to be enemies of our powerful neighbors? ”

"Powerful neighbors?" Hearing this, the patriarch of the Black Sheep Tribe, Rabitu sneered: "First of all, how can the Wei State be called a friendly neighbor? Their army wantonly slaughtered our people in Sanchuan. Secondly, the army of the Qianjiao tribe has driven those Wei people to a dead end. â€Ļâ€Ļ Those shameless Wei people who bully the weak and fear the hard, they only dare to attack the weak tribes, and when they meet the army of the Qiangjiao tribe, what did they do? They actually ran away with their tails between their legs, hahahaha. ”

After a pause, Labitu licked his lips and continued: "And now, those Wei troops have been forced to Changchuan by the warriors of the Qiangjiao tribe, and the Bitattu patriarch of the Qiangjiao tribe hopes that you will cut off the retreat of these Wei troops, and work together with each other to kill all these Wei troops who invaded my Sanchuan!" â€Ļâ€Ļ The brave people of Sanchuan must let the Wei people understand that these Sanchuan are not something they can attack at will! This is the land that belongs to the people of our three tribes, the Qiang, and the Karma, and no one can take it away! ”

Listening to the words of Rabitu, the patriarch of the Black Sheep Tribe, the patriarchs in the felt tent whispered.

"The army of Wei was really defeated by the Qiang tribe?"

"That's what I heard, I thought it was just a rumor......"

"According to this, in fact, the army of Wei is not invincible......"

Hearing these remarks, the patriarch of the Aries tribe, Halegohe, frowned, stood up, and said: "Everyone, everyone, the army of the Wei State is brave and good at fighting, and if you retreat without a fight, this is simply the art of war of the Wei people. â€Ļâ€Ļ It was a powerful country, and until they had clearly expressed their intention to recapture Sanchuan, we had no reason to be an enemy of such a powerful country! ”

"However, the Wei people have destroyed a tribe of our Di (įž) people." The patriarch of the 'Lun' tribe said in an unclear tone: "The Hu tribe, a branch of our Di tribe, they did not offend the Wei people, but they were ruthlessly slaughtered by the Wei army, how should this account be calculated?" ”

"......" The patriarch of the Aries tribe, Halgoh, opened his mouth, speechless, after all, what the other party said was indeed the truth.

Halfway through, he let out a long sigh, shook his head and said, "No matter what, my Aries tribe will not agree to start a war with the Wei State, this is self-destruction!" ”

As soon as the words fell, the patriarch of the "Meng" tribe of the Yi tribe also spoke: "The Wei people helped our clan repel the horse thieves when they were hunting, and our clan must repay this favor. â€Ļâ€Ļ I forgive you for not being able to join hands. ”

And after the Bai Aries tribe and the Meng tribe of the Qi tribe, the patriarchs of two more small tribes made it clear that they were unwilling to go to war with the Wei state.

In addition, the rest of the tribes, after various considerations, successively decided to support the Qianjiao tribe and drive the Wei people out of Sanchuan.

"What stupid!"

Seeing that these people were unwilling to listen to their persuasion, the patriarch of the Aries tribe, Halgohe, closed his eyes sadly.

He had a hunch that the stupid actions of these patriarchs would completely destroy their tribe! (To be continued.) )
