It wasn't until noon the next day when he set off for camp that Hong Tao saw Xi Luosa himself. He and more than 50 people were all cleaned, and found some chamber guards in Tongchuan Fort to wear, and temporarily became the people's husband and guide of this team.

On the surface, these newly converted Tibetans worked very hard and had a very devout attitude, and as soon as they saw someone wearing plate armor, they immediately bowed their heads and touched their chests and saluted.

"Since you can understand Chinese, then answer me a question yourself, do you want to follow me to create a grassland of your own for your people? When the time comes, I will intercede with the god who can release shooting stars, and give you the land to govern, so that you can become a king of deeds like your ancestors. ”

From Xi Luosa's eyes, Hong Tao saw not only admiration, but also a strong curiosity and tireless exploration. This is a leader with a lot of brains, and he is learning everything in the camp as well as he speaks Chinese.

I am afraid that this kind of person will not be able to control him for long with faith alone, and he will not be able to give him systematic faith. It is a dilemma whether to get rid of it directly after arriving in Huangzhou or continue to keep it.

If he is eliminated, then the remaining nearly 10,000 people of the Dialuo tribe will become their enemies, although there is no need to be afraid of those mountain people who are still living a primitive life in the short term, but after all, it is a trouble.

If you want to continue to retain, you must have a relative control. Wealth and force are also a form of control, but they are not very reliable, and these things can also be given to him by the Xia people.

In fact, some of the Tibetan tribes in the border area do just that, and they will support whichever side gives more benefits, Miao Kui's worries are not completely unreasonable, and there are many lessons from the past.

When the convoy set off, Hong Tao finally came up with an attractive proposal for Xi Luosa. The reason why the leader had to go to great lengths to move west was because he wanted to establish his own kingdom.

Perhaps the word country is confusing to them, but it means something about the same. If you don't give him wealth, force, and power, and give him a chance to realize your ideals, it seems that others will struggle to give this thing.

"My people and I are willing to serve the Divine Messenger forever, and I pray that the Divine Messenger will not abandon God's people." Xi Luosa was not too easy to fool, his desire for all this only flashed in his eyes, and he was suppressed by life.

"God can't protect you and your people for a lifetime, and if you want to protect your people, you need to be smart enough here to know what you need. It wasn't a meteor or a heavenly fire that defeated you last night, but a weapon I made with my own hands. Let me ask you, if you and your people could also make heavenly fires, would you still be afraid of the Qiang people in the west, the Xia people in the north, and the Song people in the east? Do you still need to worship other people's emperors as gods? When the time comes, you can choose the life you like, how you want to graze and how you want to graze every day, sing whatever song you want, and choose which pasture you want. Pat yourself here and ask yourself, do you want to be a slave to God for the rest of your life, or would you rather be a god yourself? I don't need you to answer right away, give you enough time to think about it, or go and consult with your people and come to me when you're ready. But not too long, there is not just one tribe in this land that has lost its home, there are many others, and I can only help the most worthy of them to realize this idea. If everyone can get such generous terms, then this advice is too worthless, don't you say? ”

Xi Luosa understood, but he didn't dare to believe it. It doesn't matter if you don't believe it, Hong Tao first issued the conditions and clearly marked the price. How much can be earned, how to make it all clear, and I have to tell you that this deal is not an exclusive license, don't think that we can't play without you, in the end agree or not to agree to figure it out yourself.

"What do I and my people have to give?" For safety reasons, Xilosa and his fifty tribesmen were not equipped with camels and horses, but all on foot. After walking nearly a hundred steps beside Hong Taoma, Xi Luosa finally made a clear response, and stopped pretending to be stupid.

In fact, from dawn, he had already found that he had guessed wrong, and the other party was not a god but a Song person. But there was no chance to resist again, and even the natives did not survive for more than a few days in the spring mountains.

And Liao Chun also died, his previous plans were all in vain, in order to continue to live, he had to endure his grief, burned the corpses of his fellow clansmen, and made a look of reverence for the gods, in order to reassure the Song officials.

With the grassland of Tongchuan Fort, the clansmen will be able to recuperate in less than two years, and they may be able to find better opportunities with the Song people.

But this Song official seems to be different from other Song people, he doesn't have the habit of thinking that the people are stupid, and his calculations are very good, but he made his words clear, and he also offered such a tempting condition, and it would be meaningless to pretend again.

"Five years of allegiance! Five years from now, you and your people will be free. During these five years, I will build a school for your people, so that the children of Natara can learn how to read and write, and so that the people of Natara can learn how to make iron and make weapons. Your people need to provide me with soldiers, and I will pay for their food, drink, and clothing. After five years, if you and your people are willing to stay, we will continue to cooperate in the form of hiring, and if we do not want to stay, we can go anywhere with an army that can fight, strong armor and sharp weapons. At the same time, I can continue to provide support to your people and help you grab a satisfactory place in the land outside of the Great Song Dynasty. You can go and ask anyone, and whoever can offer the same conditions as me, and I will immediately resign and go home, and then give you all these weapons and armor pulled in the car. ”

Hong Tao has already recognized the five-year deadline, and the pit Miaokui is also five years, and now he wants to deceive Xi Luosa into the pit. In fact, he said that three years, seven years, and ten years are fine, but he thinks that the time period of five years is not long or short, and it is very smooth.

That's right, the condition for five years of allegiance and then the freedom of the Xiluosa people is a pit, and the most critical content in these words is not the deadline, but to let the children go to school to read and write, and let the tribesmen learn to make iron and make armor and sharp weapons.

It sounds like this condition is simply too generous, Hong Tao is simply a good person, but in fact this is a very vicious plan to draw wages from the bottom of the kettle.

Civilization is relatively barbaric, advanced and relatively backward, and the former will always be more attractive than the latter. Once the latter tastes the former, he is not willing to go back. The ancients expounded this truth clearly in one sentence, they said this: from thrift to luxury, from luxury to thrift difficult.

There are many such cases in history, such as the Mongols occupying the Central Plains, which were completely worn out by pleasure in less than a hundred years, and the Mongol iron horsemen who once swept across Eurasia could not even beat a group of peasants with hoes and sticks. The Manchus were the same, they were brave and good at fighting before entering the customs, and after entering the customs, they held out a little longer than the Mongols, but they did not last much.

There is also the cultural invasion played by the Americans in later generations, which will unconsciously dilute the culture of a nation. This is what Hong Tao wants to achieve.

He wanted to use richer living conditions, richer cultural knowledge, and more innovative industrial production methods to assimilate all the people of Xiluosa, and when the time came for them to go, they didn't want to go.

Even if there are some people who are stubborn, most people do not have such self-control and analytical skills, they can see that far away, and only focus on the present.

The most ruthless was not the assimilation of the people of Xi Luosa, but the teaching of the children of his people to school and read. If the children of Na Liluo have been learning Chinese characters, speaking Chinese, speaking Han etiquette, and reciting a few lines of Tang and Song poems since they were young. It doesn't take several generations, after one generation, the Nadiro group will be divided, and after another generation or two, the group will only have a name.

Even many clansmen will be ashamed of this name and are reluctant to take the initiative to mention it again. Because this name represents backwardness, it will make them discriminated against in a society dominated by the Song people, and affect them to run towards a better future.

This is the fastest way to wipe out a race at its root, and steel knives are far less efficient and have more side effects than books at this time. This theory does not need to be proved again, there are countless precedents in history, and he himself did the same to the various ethnic groups in Southeast Asia when he was in the Jinhe Empire, and the effect was greatly improved.
