Guguan City.

After Liu Chan defeated Xiahou and said, he led his troops into Guguan City, Guguan City is just a small city, at this moment the city accommodates more than 30,000 Han troops, more than 10,000 Qiang people, and more than 10,000 Xiliang soldiers, which is extremely crowded.

The city is also noisy, even if it is dark at this moment, the noise in the city can still be heard in the government.

In the palace, Ma Chao was reporting the results of the battle to Liu Chan: "Your Majesty, the 10,000 Xiliang Iron Cavalry called by Xiahou in this battle were all wiped out, only more than 1,000 soldiers and horses surrendered, and dozens of cavalry took advantage of the chaos to escape.

The 15,000 light cavalry composed of county soldiers suffered 4,000 casualties, the remaining more than 10,000 surrendered, the Qiang suffered hundreds of casualties, and the rest of the whole army surrendered. ”

Liu Chan nodded with satisfaction and asked, "Then what about the casualties of our army?" ”

Ma Chao replied: "There are no casualties among our infantry, and the casualties of the cavalry are nearly two thousand. ”

Liu Chan sighed and said, "The resources of one cavalry can train ten foot soldiers, I have used a strategy, I don't want to have so many casualties." ”

The Han army has stirrups, and its combat effectiveness is much higher than that of the Wei army, even if it is a few frontal blows, Liu Chan is confident that he can defeat Xiahou Cheng, but Liu Chan does not want to have a big loss so he designs to deal with Xiahou Cheng, but despite this, the Han army still suffered two thousand casualties.

At present, the Han army has a total of only 30,000 cavalry, and 2,000 casualties are already broken. These 30,000 cavalry have been slowly accumulated over the years, and they have a lot to do with Liu Chan, and the Shu Han in history can't even take out 10,000 cavalry.

Pang Tong muttered: "Fortunately, after defeating Xiahou at present, Liangzhou is no longer able to resist, so he only needs to send troops to pacify, and then there will be a steady stream of horses, and cavalry will no longer be so rare." ”

"Hmm......" Liu Chan nodded lightly and said to Ma Chao: "Meng Qi, these cavalry are all trained by you, and you will be responsible for the compensation of the fallen soldiers." ”

"No!"

Liu Chan asked again: "Where is Xu Miao, the assassin of Liangzhou?" ”

Ma Chao replied: "The soldiers did not capture Xu Miao, and they want to come to Xu Miao to return to Liangzhou by small road, do you want to send troops to pursue?" ”

Liu Chan waved his hand and said: "No need, there are no soldiers and horses in Liangzhou, even if Xu Miao returns to Liangzhou, he will just gather some young and strong people to defend the city, and he can't make any big waves." The soldiers are fighting hard, so let them rest well, rest and recuperate, and by the way, inform the Qiang leaders that I will summon them tomorrow. ”

"No!"

"I'll see Your Majesty!"

In the main hall, a group of Qiang leaders saluted Liu Chan.

There are dozens of these Qiang leaders, large and small, from various tribes and even different ethnic groups.

There are many kinds of Qiang people, such as Tangchang Qiang, Deng Zhiqiang, Baima Qiang, etc., they are distributed in the west of Yizhou, south of Liangzhou, and even in today's Wudu, Yinping, Guanghan, and Yizhou Nanzhong, there are also Qiang people, but in general, it is still spread around Qinghai in later generations.

At present, the leaders of the Qiang people in the main hall are mainly from the vicinity of Jincheng County, Liangzhou, that is, the area of Qinghai Lake.

The water and grass around Qinghai Lake are abundant, and the Qiang people live by the water and live by nomadism, and the Qiang people in this area have the largest number and the strongest strength.

Since the Qiang people are widely distributed and spread all over the border of Yiliang and Yizhou, the treatment of the Qiang people is related to the stability of Yongliang and Yizhou, so it must be properly handled.

One of the five chaotic Chinese in history was the Qiang people, who occupied the Yongliang area and established the Later Qin. The Western Xia, which was established by the party in later generations, was also a Qiang person, and if it was not handled well, it would repeat the mistakes of history.

As for killing, nomads can continue to move, even if they are driven out now, they will still come back in the future, and even if they do not return, there will be new peoples to replace them.

For example, Emperor Wu of the Western Han Dynasty attacked the Xiongnu and forced him to relocate, but in the Eastern Han Dynasty, the north was replaced by Xianbei, and even after the Jin Dynasty, Xianbei also established the Northern Wei Dynasty and ruled the north.

Therefore, if you want to completely stabilize the nomads, the way to do it once and for all is to subdue them, integrate them, and take them as your own.

During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the Qin State ruled Guanzhong and was regarded as a barbarian by the Kwantung States, but today, Guanzhong is one of the richest lands in the Han Dynasty, and Chang'an, one of the two capitals, is also located in Guanzhong.

What was once a barbarian land has become the center of the country.

Combined with history, Liu Chan's idea is to integrate, and over time, slowly let the Qiang people become his own people, so that the goal of long-term peace and stability can be achieved.

A group of Qiang leaders fell to the ground, waiting for Liu Chan to speak, but after waiting for a long time, Liu Chan didn't say a word, the hall was silent, and the needles could be heard, and these Qiang leaders were all terrified, and their heartbeats intensified.

"It's hateful!" Suddenly, Liu Chan slapped the table, and an angry voice sounded in the hall.

"Your Majesty forgives your sins!" The leaders of the Qiang people turned pale with fright and kowtowed repeatedly.

Now they are fish on Liu Chan's chopping board, if Liu Chan wants to kill them, they have no chance of survival.

"Forgiveness? How can you forgive my sins? Liu Chan said coldly: "Two hundred years before the Han Dynasty, tell me, how many years has the land of Yongliang been stable?" What year have you ever been born in peace? In the past two hundred years, how many sons of my Han have died because of fighting with you?

Today, I can't stop my big man, I raised an army to rebel, and you help the rebels, and my big man is the enemy, hundreds of years, you still don't have a long memory! Tell me, what should I do with you? ”

"Your Majesty forgives your sins, these are all the sins of our predecessors, and they have nothing to do with us."

"We are all persecuted by Xu Miao, and we really don't want to be enemies of Your Majesty."

"Yes, we don't want to be enemies of Your Majesty, and please spare Your Majesty's life, I swear not to rebel."

"Please spare your life!"

"Please forgive me."

The chiefs prostrated one after another.

Liu Chan snorted coldly and said: "You don't know how many times you have said this kind of thing, but after you go back, you are still rebellious and capricious, how can you trust me?" ”

"Your Majesty......"

Liu Chan waved his hand and said, "No need to say any more, I will give you two ways now." ”

A Qiang leader plucked up his courage and said, "Your Majesty, please speak." ”

Liu Chan said: "Liangzhou is vast and sparsely populated, if you want to live, then change nomadism to farming, I will distribute the corresponding fields according to your current wealth, and from now on it will be included in my Han household registration, become my Han people, and completely belong to the rule of my Han." ”

The reason why nomads are difficult to rule is because they are mobile, live in water and grass, and change frequently, so they are difficult to rule. Therefore, if you want to rule the Qiang people, you have to let them settle down, change from nomadism to farming, and when they are stabilized, it will be easier for the Han government to rule them.

As for how to make the Qiang people stable and have a sense of belonging to the Han Dynasty, this can only be slowly implemented by relying on policies.

At present, these Qiang leaders are only a part of the Qiang people, and they can be taken down first before they can slowly start to deal with other Qiang people.
