Wei Ba first conquered Heisha with personal force, and then conquered the hearts of the young warriors of the Yuanxi tribe with the force of the soldiers, so that they could see their strength, and then give favors, which is the truth of slapping and then giving a sweet date. To deal with these barbarians, it is not possible to blindly be benevolent and righteous, only if they are subdued first, and then give benefits, they will be truly obedient.

The Yuanxi tribe used to be the most supportive tribe of Shu Han, but it also declined because of its support for Shu Han. Morally speaking, Shu Han also has the obligation to support them, and they are now at a critical juncture of life and death, as long as they reach out to help, it is easy to get their gratitude. Similarly, for Jin Suo'er, who was watching, this clean and neat battle was also a rare memory, which would be transmitted from her mouth to the ears of more barbarians, further establishing the myth of Lord Wei's invincibility.

For these barbarians, myths are more useful than any truth. Don't you see that in the last years of the Qing Dynasty, there are still people who believe that they are invulnerable, and dare to rush forward shirtless when they recite a spell?

Wei Ba didn't have much time to cultivate loyalty now, so he had to use mythology. This idea has been around since before the Battle of Tatsusui and is now being implemented step by step. Although he really wants to be able to shape himself into a god at once, he also knows that this kind of thing can't show flaws, these barbarians are rectums, and once they find out that you lied to them, they will immediately turn their faces and deny people.

Fortunately, Wei Ba, as a traverser, is more or less welfare, and he is more experienced in propaganda and agitation in the ideological field - or simply put, demagoguery, than these people now. Most of these people are illiterate, and they are inherently blind to those who are literate and well-informed. Even his ancestor is a dog, he can believe that there is no psychological obstacle to the reincarnation of the invincible god general for the wise and martial Lord Wei.

Whether others believe it or not, at least the people of the Yuanxi tribe believe it. Wei Ba made Heisha his personal guard Sima, and selected two hundred young and strong people from the Yuanxi tribe and handed them over to Dunwu and others for training, and he began to prepare for the production of the stone thrower. According to Wei Ba's request, Shalaman moved the ordinary people of the former village to the back village to avoid being affected by the war.

Wei Ba brought some gifts, including armor and war knives captured from the Wu army, which were originally for the Xiongxi tribe. Now things have changed. I couldn't take care of it for the time being, so I gave it all to the Yuanxi tribe and equipped the pro-guard battalion that escaped from it. The barbarians fought against the Han and were always at a disadvantage. On the one hand, the combat idea stays at the level of tribal fighting. On the other hand, it is because the equipment is too poor. They basically had no leather armor, and only those of high status could wear the occasional captured Han leather armor, and iron armor was even more rare. Most of the weapons used were spears and machetes, and the long-range weapons were bamboo bows or wooden crossbows, which were too primitive compared to the standard bows and crossbows of the Han people. If it weren't for the barbarians guarding their homeland, fighting desperately and bloodily, and having a favorable location, they would have been driven into the mountains long ago.

With the equipment brought by Wei Ba, the combat effectiveness of the guard battalion has been improved, and more importantly, the spirit is different. Thirty young barbarians with high martial arts skills wore standard armor and standard ring swords, and stood beside Wei Ba, which was enough to arouse the envy and desire of other young barbarians. There were a few blacksmiths in the stockade, and Wei Ba told them to hurry up and switch to the Han knife-making method to make some new machetes. Although the time is short and there are few craftsmen, there is not much to do at all, but one more good knife is one more liliang.

Seeing that Wei Ba arranged for someone to fight the knife, Heisha pulled Wei Ba aside and said mysteriously: "My lord, can the old knife be repaired in this way?" ”

"Absolutely." Wei Ba smiled: "Look at the damage, plus some new iron into it, and re-forge it, it can be completely used." ”

"Okay, the king's sword is still there, can you ask the king to rebuild it?" Heisha pointed to the craftsmen who were pondering: "Just use the forging knife method that the adult just said." ”

Wei Ba hesitated for a moment. He knew that Heisha was very enthusiastic about inheriting the position of the barbarian king of Shamoko, and if he could help Heisha fulfill this wish, it was estimated that Heisha would be willing to do anything. In order to gain Heisha's loyalty, of course he is willing to help, but he can't agree too easily, otherwise Heisha will take it for granted, but it is not beautiful.

Seeing Wei Ba's hesitation, Hei Sha rubbed his hands awkwardly, his face flushed. Wei Xing coughed and reminded: "Jingfu, the king's relic doesn't seem to be very convenient, right?" Will the rest of the tribe have an opinion? ”

Heisha smacked his lips and lowered his head. He is also worried about this problem, he is now only the master of the Yuanxi tribe, and he doesn't even have a fangjun order, and some old people in the tribe refuse to recognize his status, let alone move Shamoke's relics.

Wei Ba pondered for a moment: "Heisha, you go and ask your wife and her mother, they are the family of King Shamoke, if they can move, then there is no problem." It would not be a good thing to make King Shamoke's sword thirsty for the blood of the Wu people again. If you can use King Shamoko's sword to make meritorious deeds, it will also help you to inherit his throne in the future. ”

Heisha was overjoyed, and hurriedly went to the back village to ask Shalaman's mother and daughter. Of course, Salamane wanted her husband to be a barbarian king like her father, but she couldn't ask for it, and her mother, who had been almost demented for so many years, would not have any objections. After obtaining the consent of their mother and daughter, Heisha happily took Wei Ba to the place where Shamoke's relics were enshrined in the back village.

In a very neat thatched hut, there was a tall statue of the god, I don't know what kind of wood it was made of, the carving technique was very exaggerated, the face of the god was hideous, and there was a hat like a dog's head on the head. He holds a long-handled broadsword in his left hand and holds it with five fingers in his right hand.

"This is the sword that the king used back then." Hei Sha pointed to the war knife that was a little dull and a little dull although it was well maintained, and said, "This knife killed at least thirty Wu dogs back then. ”

Wei Ba didn't answer him, he was caught by the long-handled battle knife. The blade of this knife is about four feet long, about the same as an ordinary war knife, but the blade is twice as wide, about three fingers wide, and the blade alone will probably be twice as heavy as an ordinary war knife. If the head of the knife is bent a little more, it will be a bit similar to the legendary Blue Dragon Glaive Knife. Such a heavy war knife cannot be used without extraordinary strength, and the Guan Wang knife, which is known as weighing 82 pounds, is only used in martial arts exercises in later generations, and no one will really take such a heavy weapon to the battlefield.

"Chopping the Sword!" Wang Shuang exclaimed.

"You know?" Wei Ba was surprised.

"yes, I know." Wang Shuang explained: "This long-handled knife is specially used to deal with cavalry, and it is transformed from a large sword, and it refers to the shape of the long sword, and its power is amazing. No wonder King Shamoko is extremely brave, he can use such a sword, how many people are his opponents? ”

Wei Ba nodded in agreement. Such a sword can only be used by people with great height and strength, and southerners are generally not tall, that is, about seven feet, which is slightly smaller than the Central Plains. With one force down to ten meetings, a strong man with a height of more than eight feet suddenly appeared, coupled with this powerful horse chopping knife, there were several people who could be his opponents.

Wei Ba suddenly laughed, looking Heisha and Wang Shuang up and down. Wang Shuang is nine feet tall, of course it is not a problem to use this kind of sword, Heisha is also a rare big man among the barbarians, about seven feet eight inches, although it is still a little shorter than Shamoke, but it should not be a problem to use such a knife.

If they are equipped with such a sword, it will play a major role in the next battle.

"Black Sand, let the blacksmiths stop all their work and forge two of these knives first."

"Great." Heisha raised his eyebrows, then he was stunned again, and asked in surprise, "Two?" ”

"Yes, you heard it right." Wei Ba patted Hei Sha on the shoulder: "Hei Sha, if I guess correctly, you probably won't be able to use such a sword, right?" ”

Heisha's black face turned red and nodded awkwardly. He was bent on going into battle with Samoko's sword to show that he was Samoko's heir, but he really wouldn't use such a long-handled sword. He, like ordinary tribesmen, was accustomed to using machetes.

"If you go into battle and you don't know how to use it, won't you be laughed at." Wei Ba pointed at Wang Shuang: "However, you are lucky, the prince in front of you is all a master of long knives." You can never go wrong if you learn from him. ”

Heisha was overjoyed, took Wang Shuang's hand and said in a loud voice: "Brother Wang, you have to teach me." ”

Wang Shuang was confused, although he knew this kind of horse chopping knife, but he had never used it, how to teach Heisha. He looked at Heisha in embarrassment, and then looked at Wei Ba. Seeing him like this, Heisha thought that he was unwilling to teach, so he had to turn his head to save Wei Ba. Wei Ba said seriously: "Ziquan, Heisha is now my personal guard Sima, I will go into battle with you to kill the enemy in the future, he is a point stronger, and he can also help you a point, so don't be reluctant, teach him a few hands." ”

Although Wang Shuang didn't quite understand what Wei Ba meant, he knew that Wei Ba must have his considerations, so he had to reluctantly nodded: "Since the young master said so, then I'll teach him a few hands." ”

Heisha was ecstatic, and he no longer bothered to consider the question of whether it was appropriate for Shamoke's knife to appear in Wang Shuang's hands. I took off my knife and went to the blacksmith. When the black sand ran away, Wang Shuang asked, "Young master, I really can't." ”

"What's not going to be, the martial arts on the battle array are nothing more than a few clicks." Wei Ba said with a smile: "I have learned a few Guan family knife techniques with Miss Guan, I can teach you, you think about it again, with your qualifications, I believe you will be able to master it soon." I tell you, this kind of knife technique may be of limited use here, but if you go to the grassland in the future and fight against those barbarians on the grassland, this is definitely a sharp weapon. Ziquan, I pinned this hope on you. ”

When Wang Shuang heard this, he immediately felt his blood boiling, his fighting spirit was high, and his face was a little swollen. He knelt on one leg and said with his fists: "Young master, don't worry, I will definitely think hard and live up to the trust of the young master." ”

"I believe in you." Wei Ba patted Wang Shuang's shoulder, "You are a piece of fine iron with excellent qualifications, and after thousands of tempers, you will eventually become a war knife that sharpens iron like clay." (To be continued......)
