Shu Chen

Chapter 256

Compared with kindness, hatred is more unforgettable.

This is why Zheng Pu didn't want Lu Shuihu to stay in Hexi.

The reason for the rapid decline of this formerly powerful tribe with tens of thousands of tribes is not only the oppression of the Wei State government, but also other Qianghu tribes and Haoyou follow the law of the jungle.

From the perspective of the great Han, after regaining the four counties in Hexi, Lu Shuihu is the best "horse bone" to show the court's kindness.

Needless to say, after the well-treated Lu Shuihu becomes strong again, he will inevitably return the bullying he suffered in the past to other Qianghu tribes and Haoyou, and it will also plunge the Hexi Corridor into turmoil.

With Ni Wei watching covetously, the big man can't trap his stretched financial resources and military forces in Hexi to maintain stability.

In other words, the big man would rather Hexi maintain the status quo than waste his war heritage to regain a turbulent Liangzhou.

After all, allowing Haoyou to continue to segregate counties and counties, at least it will not cause a crisis in the Longyou defense line, which in turn will affect the strategy of marching into Guanzhong and returning to the old capital.

Of course, with these considerations, Zheng Pu would not speak out to Yi Jian's prostitutes.

Therefore, after thinking for a moment, he asked softly, "Does your envoy know that Ke Wu, the bandit chieftain who attached himself to the rebellion against Wei, has moved his family to Xiutuze?"

Of course Ekin's concubine knew.

Even before he came to Tanyin City Fortress to see the Han army, he had long thought of a countermeasure.

It is his intention that once the Han army agrees to this request, he will propose that the Lushuihu tribe send horses, cattle, sheep and other supplies to make friends with Kewu and Yang Fu. He begged Wei Guo to see that they would not make peace with the Han army, so that they would reduce the collection of supplies and corvees.

Yi Jian's concubine believed that when the Han army was about to arrive in Hexi, Yang Fu and the others would definitely agree to their conditions in order to change their elbows and armpit.

He was also paralyzed by them!

As long as Yang Fu and the others no longer strictly monitor, they will find a chance to backstab!
Yes, Lu Shuihu will never forget the years of hunger and cold, the starvation and freezing of countless women, children, old and weak, and the blood feud of being enslaved like cattle and horses!

The reason why they didn't directly raise troops to join forces with the Han army was because they wanted to seize the opportunity to seize the Haoyou who supported Yang Fu and the supplies, women and children of the Qianghu tribe, so that Lu Shuihu quickly became strong.

Backstab, the place to attack is naturally the rear where the supplies, women and children are.

This plan is the reason why he, who once ruled the roost for a while, made a humble gesture and begged the Han army to take him in.

He used to be one of the leaders of Lu Shuihu, and he wanted to be supported as the leader again.

Yu Gong, at the time of the Hexi turmoil, it is difficult for Lu Shuihu without a leader to take advantage of the situation.

Yu Zi, who grew up in the Hexi Corridor, has never lacked ambition.

He is indeed old.

His dim eyes made his bow and arrow no threat; his stooped body made him lose the majestic posture of brandishing a spear and galloping a horse.
But the ambition in his chest is like spring on a dead tree.

The current situation is really too rare.

Being elected as a messenger by his followers shows that his old prestige still exists.

If he can successfully negotiate peace with the Han army, and then lead the tribe to restore its former strength through counseling, then there will be no suspense about the position of the leader.

Lao Ji Fuping, ambition of thousands of miles.

He who has tasted the beauty of power once wanted to have the honor that everyone is looking forward to when this life ends.

Not to mention, his heirs who are in their prime have been treated "specially" by the Wei government over the years; by seizing this opportunity, he can also make up for their guilt of being implicated by their parents.

With such selfishness, after hearing Zheng Pu's question, many thoughts flashed through his mind instantly.

There was still a flash of panic in his eyes.

He suddenly remembered the gossip of the general in front of Wei's Hexi government and the Haoyou all these years.

He is resourceful, decisive, and employs many extraordinary actions; especially after the fall of Xiaoguan, some Xianbei Lujie tribesmen who migrated to Hexi due to the epidemic, have repeatedly claimed that Zheng Pu's schemes are exhausted.

Now, he suddenly asked about the thief Ke Wu, could it be that he has seen what I have in mind?

If he really has insight, then he has to re-plan the future.

After all, the Han army's practice of recruiting poor tenants in Longyou to garrison land and curb land annexation has long been spread throughout Liangzhou; it is impossible to sit back and watch Lu Shuihu annex other tribes!

Only when we get rid of the crisis of survival can we talk about development and prosperity.

Lu Shuihu, who was continuously oppressed by Wei State, had already reached the point where it was unsustainable, and his only hope of survival was tied to the idea of ​​being able to get the support of the Han army.

He will never disregard the interests of the tribe for the sake of his own selfish thoughts.

To take a step back, if Lu Shuihu captured the women, children and supplies of other tribes and annoyed the Han army, then Lu Shuihu would not be able to usher in the prosperity of the past, but would be more severely suppressed in the future.

Taking a breath quietly, Yi Jian's concubine lowered her head, made a more humble gesture, and tentatively said pretending to be puzzled: "Report to the general, everyone in Wuwei County knows about this matter. The general asked about it today because he wanted me to wait for the tribe Do you want to restrain this thief?"

"No."

Smiling and waving his hands, Zheng Pu smiled, "I am worried about your ministry's safety. Your envoy is asking you to be the pioneer of my great man. This time, I will show my loyalty to the court and invite the emperor and the prime minister Excellent! However, after all, the strength of your Ministry has been declining for a long time. Not only are the population withered, the livestock are not plentiful, and there are few people who can recruit good fighters! Confucius said, "If you don't teach the people to fight, it means abandoning them." I have always been a great man. Benevolence and righteousness, I can't bear to see your ministry increase casualties."

"Furthermore, since the reign of Dong Zhuo, the Han Dynasty has been out of order, rebelling against Wei and stealing artifacts. As a result, the nobles have been bullied and their livelihoods are difficult to continue. There are also people who have no one to rely on and sell their daughters. My emperor and the prime minister often Hearing this, everyone sighed endlessly, hating that it is difficult for the soldiers to reach the west of Hexi, and they cannot relieve the urgent ears of your ministry!"

"Fortunately, it depends on the destiny. My great man will send troops out of Liangzhou today to drive away Wei and seek disobedience, and return to the universe. If your ministry has the heart, please stay dormant and save the lives of the people so that the emperor and the court will not sin. .”

uh~~
After hearing this, Ekin's prostitute felt a sense of loneliness in her heart.

The Han army did not want Lu Shuihu to participate in the battle, but also obliterated his expectations.

And he dared not argue.

Although Zheng Pu has always claimed that the Son of Heaven and the Prime Minister are sympathetic to the suffering of his tribe, but if Lu Shuihu refuses to obey what the Han army says, then this general will show him how sharp the Han army is.

After all, people are killed by swords.

It can be harsh on Lu Shui, Hu Wei, and the great man who declares that "the sun and the moon shine, all belong to Han soil", how can we not?
"That"

Hesitating slightly, Yijian gritted her teeth, and raised her head and asked, "May I ask the general, if our troops don't follow the conquest, after the big Han conquers Hexi, can the big man return the pastures and fields that our troops occupied by the Wei Wei?"
