Chapter 313 Curves Save the Country
The Huns soon disappeared, and the Qiang people who had fallen to the ground supported each other and stood up. And some people can no longer stand up, and can only watch their wives and daughters lying on the dead bodies, crying bitterly.
"Great Elder, the Huns are deceiving people too much, let's go and call the leaders back and do it with them!" The reckless man with a more grumpy temper suggested it out loud.
"Pu Bawu is right, when have we received this kind of nest, I will go and inform the leaders to come back and kill these Huns." Another man said loudly, as long as the Great Elder nodded, he would immediately go to Liangzhou to call someone.
"Liangzhou is far away from here, and far water can't quench your thirst. When the leaders come back, we don't know how many clan sons will die! "Some of the older people obviously see farther, this is at least nearly 3,000 miles away from the hinterland of Liangzhou, and when they come back, it will be too late.
"It's really not good, let's fight with them!"
"Fight, how to fight? People have armies, horses, and armoured soldiers, what do we have? Hoe or stick? ”
"This doesn't work, that doesn't work, just break up and run for your life!"
“…………”
The chaotic sound was so loud that his ears were buzzing, and the eldest elder who learned that dozens of clansmen had died was already in a heavy mood, and at this moment, he heard that everyone was still arguing here, and when he stomped the sheep's head cane in his hand on the ground, his face turned red and shouted angrily: "It's not because I'm dead!" ”
Although its momentum is gone, its prestige remains.
Seeing that the Great Elder was angry, the people who were arguing endlessly immediately fell silent and lowered their heads to listen to the training.
It's not that the Great Elder didn't think of sending someone to call those leaders back, but now that the war in Liangzhou is tight, those junior leaders want to make meritorious contributions, I'm afraid that even if this little thing reaches their ears, no one wants to come back.
Two hundred shepherds are easy to find, but the stomachs of the Huns cannot be filled at all.
The Great Elder knew this better than anyone else.
Back in the nearby village, the Great Elder asked the Qiang people to gather two hundred shepherds and prepare to send them to the Huns early tomorrow morning. It is precisely this attitude of calming things down that makes the Qiang people disappointed in this great elder who is respected on weekdays.
"It would have been nice if he hadn't rejected Yan Junshou's advice in the first place."
In the sheep felt tent, the fire warmed the whole tent, and the great elder who was lying on the animal skin couch sighed sadly.
After determining the strategy of the Qiang people to govern the Qiang, Yan Xin originally wanted to send 500 soldiers each to guard in Xi'anyang and Chengyi, and in case there was a disturbance, he could also mention that he could prepare for prevention.
However, the great elder at that time thought that Yan Xin was not worried about the Qiang people, and deliberately sent the soldiers of the Han army, which was called protection, but it was actually surveillance.
The Great Elder therefore argued with reason, and finally pushed off this matter. For this reason, he secretly rejoiced for a long time, and finally no longer had to be under the control of the Han people, and could freely carry out their herding and farming life.
Now that I think about it, my intestines are really repentant.
"Great Elder, are you looking for me?"
The curtain of the tent was opened, and a girl wearing a Qiang costume walked in, with a beautiful face, eyes like a crescent moon, and a voice like a mountain magpie spirit, exuding the breath of youth.
When the Great Elder saw the girl, he was obviously quite happy, and beckoned to her, with a kind smile on his face: "It's Mu Ya, come, come and talk." ”
Mu Ya didn't know why the Great Elder had summoned her, she was only a little higher than the ordinary Qiang people, and she was the daughter of a small clan leader. She never thought that the Great Elder would specially summon her, and while she was flattered, she also put away her usual wild nature, moved forward a little under her feet, and walked to the Great Elder's bed.
Seeing the girl's restrained appearance, the Great Elder waved his hand and comforted her: "Don't be nervous, I'm not a big worm that eats people, just treat me as an ordinary old man." ”
"Yes." Mu Ya responded, still cautious.
"I haven't seen Meng Qi for a while, right?" The Great Elder asked as if it were ordinary small talk.
Mu Ya was slightly stunned when she heard this, but she didn't expect that a person of the level of the Great Elder would actually know about Ma Chao, a little guy. She didn't know what she meant for the time being, and answered truthfully: "Back to the words of the Great Elder, after the Heavenly Sacrifice Ceremony, Mu Ya has not seen him. ”
"This kid is amazing, he will definitely be a character in the future."
The Great Elder smiled and complimented, he had indeed never seen Ma Chao before. However, Lu Bu took Ma Chao and Pang De away from the Heavenly Sacrifice Ceremony, and the Great Elder who heard about this matter, for the sake of safety, inevitably had to investigate, and he also brought out the forces of Ma Teng and Mu Ya's side.
Fortunately, Ma Chao has the blood of the Qiang people on his body, even if it is only a quarter of the blood.
Hearing the elder praise Ma Chao, Mu Ya was also very happy in her heart, but she muttered: "That kid has no talent, he was a crybaby when he was a child, and his face was not ......pinched."
"Later, you will take your clansmen and lead a hundred cattle and sheep to Wuyuan County to find Meng Qi, and by the way, meet General Duliao who is stationed in the military camp." The Great Elder didn't care that the little girl was talking to herself there, and mentioned the topic.
The Southern Xiongnu were aggressive, and if they wanted to get rid of their aggression, they had to ask for help from the Wuyuan County Guard.
But before Yan Xin said that he wanted to set up a county lieutenant, but he was rejected by the great elder's righteous words, and now he really can't pull his face to beg Yan Xin.
had to come to save the country, and asked Mu Ya to go to Lu Bu for help and ask him to send troops to help.
As for why he didn't go in person, the Great Elder remembered that he scolded Lu Bu fiercely at the Heavenly Sacrifice Ceremony, and he didn't know if he would hold a grudge.
Now, there is no other way.
The two hundred sheep were just a delaying tactic, and when Lu Bu came, presumably the Huns would sell him face.
"Why are you looking for that general!" Mu Ya was obviously a little reluctant, Lu Bu pretended to be a fool and lied to her, but she remembered it clearly.
Women, whether old women, brides or young girls, hate others for deceiving them.
No matter what the purpose, Lu Bu always lied to her, which is indisputable.
"In the current situation, only he can save us."
Seeing that the girl was reluctant to go, the Great Elder persuaded him bitterly: "You have the best relationship with Meng Qi, and you are his little cousin, and Lu Bu is also very optimistic about him. You go to Meng Qi and talk to him, and ask him to ask Lu Bu to send troops to rescue, there must be eighty or ninety percent certainty that it can be done. ”
The girl stood there with a wooden pestle, still not saying a word.
Seeing that Mu Ya refused to answer, the Great Elder was so anxious that he coughed violently: "Do you want the old man to kneel down and beg you, so that you are willing to go?" Okay, then take my bow. ”
As he spoke, the Great Elder struggled to his body, got up from the bed, and made a gesture to go down to the ground to bow down to Mu Ya.
How could the girl afford this, she hurriedly stepped forward to support the body of the great elder, and gave him a soothing back, and reluctantly agreed.
This should be done sooner rather than later.
Soon, the Great Elder arranged for several clansmen, brought cattle and sheep, and followed the girl to the direction of Wuyuan.
