"No!" As soon as Anigus finished speaking in his half-baked Central Plains dialect, Zhou Ting stood up and said sharply, "The bandits in the Qin Kingdom have their own officers and soldiers to encircle and suppress them. Absolutely impossible."

Anigus immediately shouted: "Why not? Our thirteen barbarian tribes have already surrendered to the Emperor Qin, and they are the emperor's subjects. You can't share the worries of the Emperor. Are you going to prevent us from submitting to the Emperor Qin?" Are you loyal to His Majesty the Emperor?"

"Your Majesty, the barbarians are foreign countries, and they have no faith." Xue Huai'an, Minister of the Ministry of Rites, knew that he had to stand up at this time, and said loudly: "In the past, the barbarians committed crimes, burned, killed, and looted, and their lives were devastated. With the power of my Great Qin, if I lure barbarians into the pass, it will definitely be a disaster, I hope the Holy One will think twice."

At this time, a person stood out from among the Hexi officials, this person was Zhao Huizu, the head of the military department of the Hexi Dao, and he cupped his hands and said: "My lord, the thirteen tribes have shown their favor to Daqin a few years ago, and made a decision I am determined to make good friends with my great Qin forever." Pointing to a group of chiefs, "Many noble children of the thirteen tribes admired my Middle-earth culture and sent many people to study. After these people studied, they returned to the northern grasslands. The barbarians spread the heavenly power of our Great Qin, and the chiefs present willingly surrendered because they knew that our Middle-earth culture is extensive and profound." Looking at Xue Huai'an, he said, "Xue Butang, a knife cannot really conquer a nation. If you want to Only culture can really make them surrender, and the thirteen tribes are surrendered to the profound and profound culture of our Great Qin Dynasty. It is true that they used to be ignorant of etiquette, loyalty, filial piety, benevolence and righteousness, but 30 years in Hedong and 40 years in Hexi, the barbarians today , Not everyone is a barbarian. Among the tribes in the northern prairie, there are indeed some barbarians who live up to the king, but the thirteen tribes present today have exchanged with us and have come into contact with us. Loyalty and filial piety are no longer the barbarians of the past."

Xue Huai'an sneered and said, "My Daqin culture was built in a day, a day, a year, a year or two years? Starting from Yao, Shun, Tang Yu in ancient times, after thousands of years, my Central Plains culture has been accumulated bit by bit. Today, we Not everyone in China knows loyalty, filial piety and righteousness. These barbarians have studied for a few years, and you think they have my Chinese culture? Does it mean that if you hold a copy of "The Analects of Confucius" in your hand and read it once, you are a saint?"

As soon as Xue Huai'an said this, many officials present could not help but nod their heads.

"Xue Butang's words are right." Feng Yuan said with a smile: "I'm afraid you have misunderstood. The thirteen barbarian tribes did not intend to migrate to the pass, but to mobilize some soldiers and horses and hand them over to the imperial court. To encircle and suppress Qingtian King, as long as Qingtian King is wiped out, they will immediately withdraw from the pass and return to the northern border!"

Zhou Ting looked stern, shook his head and said: "Mr. Zhong, this is the next policy, it will never work."

"Your Majesty, although the Qingtian bandits are a mob, they are numerous and powerful. If we don't stop them, once they control Fuhai Road, the consequences will be unimaginable." Feng Yuan said in a serious tone: "The Qingtian bandits hold Hebei and Fuhai in their hands. The fertile land is the granary of the empire, and Fuhai Road is the land of salt warehouses. The southeast is now controlled by Tianmen Road, and the salt is nothing but transported. The way is completely cut off."

The emperor just stared at Feng Yuanpo and didn't speak.

"Both the granary and the salt warehouse are in the hands of the Qingtian bandits. His next step is to spread to Guanzhong. The most serious situation is that the Qingtian bandits will go south to attack the capital. At that time, there will be Tianmen Road in the south and Qingtian bandits in the north. Under the attack from the north and the south, the situation is bound to be precarious." Feng Yuanpo's voice was almost choked up, "The matter of ministers eating the emperor's salary and loyalty to the emperor is suspected to relieve the troubles of the Holy One. The Qingtian bandits cannot let them continue to be rampant, so we must It is necessary to send troops to encircle and suppress. Although I have the heart to kill the bandits and serve the country, the soldiers in my hands are too weak. If I want to wipe out the Qingtian bandits, I still need a strong army. ...!" Pointing at Anigus, "The thirteen barbarian tribes are all warriors capable of conquering wars, but their discipline is loose. If they are trained, they must be a mighty army that kills the enemy and serves the country for the Holy One." !"

Zhou Ting sneered and said, "Although the swords are sharp, if one is not good, it will injure yourself in turn."

"Zhou Nayan, I know your worries, but I have also thought about it. Although the barbarians are rebellious, as long as they are given strict military regulations and strict control, they may not be unusable." Feng Yuanpo sighed: "The most important What's more, exterminating the Qingtian bandits is the top priority of the imperial court now, how can we suppress the bandits without soldiers? It would be better if Zhou Nayan could conjure up an army for the Holy Majesty."

The emperor supported his long beard, and finally said: "Mr. Zhongguo's words are justified."

Zhou Ting and others suddenly changed color.

"Your Majesty, the barbarians are not afraid of death, and if they are used to suppress thieves, they will definitely make great achievements." Feng Yuanpo said loudly: "Your Majesty, please think twice!"

Zhou Ting had already stepped forward and knelt down: "Your Majesty, this proposal must never be allowed. You can think of any method, but you must never let the barbarians enter the customs. This is undoubtedly drinking poison to quench your thirst and causing endless harm. Now it is said that there are military regulations, but if If the barbarians really enter the customs, what if they can’t be restrained?" For this reason, Zhou Ting ignored the barbarian chiefs present, and said in a deep voice: "The barbarians drink blood and are extremely ferocious. Let him enter the customs. I'm afraid that if we fail to suppress the thieves, the people of our Great Qin will suffer from it...!"

Anigus said loudly: "Are you saying these words, are you looking down on us barbarians? We are kind to help, but you treat us like this, it is our fault." Huo Ran got up, turned around and walked in front of the chiefs, Ji Li Gua said a few words, obviously some of those chiefs did not understand the Central Plains dialect, Anigus went to repeat the words of Qin officials to them, and sure enough, after saying a few words, the faces of all the chiefs showed indignation There was already a chief who turned around and left without saying a word.

Seeing that someone was about to leave, the others followed one after another, and Laojun's palace was in a state of chaos for a while.

"Your Majesty, you have seen that this group of barbarians who don't know how to become kings actually leave without saying goodbye. They are really extremely barbaric." Zhou Ting immediately said, "How can such barbarians who don't understand the rules be used?"

"That's right, Your Majesty, they don't have any rules at all. The emperor is here, but he is already so arrogant. Please punish these barbarians for their crimes." Xue Huai'an also said immediately.

"Zhou Nayan, Xue Butang, I don't agree with your views." Feng Yuanpo frowned and said, "If it were you who were full of passion and wanted to share the worries of the Holy One, but were insulted like this, what would you think? "

"Mr. Zhong, it seems that you have a lot of affection for the barbarians." Zhou Ting snorted coldly.

The chiefs walked to the front of the main hall, and before they went out, they saw the royal guards guarding the door suddenly appearing. Although most of them entered the Tiangong today, most of them could not be equipped with weapons. The big guards stood in front of the door, forming a wall, and the chiefs were even more annoyed when they saw that they were stopped.

"Who dares to intrude, kill without pardon!" A cold and stern voice suddenly appeared, extremely cold, Xuanyuan Shao had already appeared in front of all the chiefs, in the whole world, there is no taboo to wear weapons, only Xuanyuan Shao, Xuanyuan Shao is the royal guard The commander of the army is also the number one guard next to the emperor. When he was appointed by the emperor as the royal guard, the emperor issued a special decree to allow Xuanyuan Shao to wear weapons at any time and any place. In the palace, Xuanyuan Shao still wears his bow.

These chiefs were originally very rough and didn't pay attention to the guards, but Xuanyuan Shao suddenly appeared, and the cold murderous aura exuded from him made all the chiefs change color slightly, looking at the long pale face in front of them. Well, these barbarian chiefs had an idea at the same time, if they really moved forward, the person in front of them would never show mercy.

"Let them come back!" The emperor had a good temper, and said to Feng Yuan: "The barbarian country does not know the etiquette of the Great Qin. I think they are the first offenders, so I don't blame them."

Feng Yuanpo immediately turned around and shouted a few words in the barbarian language. All the chiefs looked at each other and said a few words, and then came back one after another and knelt down on the Laojun Hall.

"Your Majesty, they said they don't understand etiquette, so I beg your Majesty to punish them!" Feng Yuan said.

The emperor waved his hand and said, "I've said it before. Don't blame them for their first offence. Duke Zhong, what do you think of Zhou Nayan's words? If the barbarians enter the customs, will it be counterproductive?"

"Your Majesty, I will use the head as a guarantee." Feng Yuan said solemnly: "If they really refuse to obey the restraint, I will slaughter them with my own hands, and then offer my own head to apologize to the Holy Majesty."

"Mr. Zhong, with all due respect, if something really breaks out, it will be your head, and I'm afraid it won't be able to save the situation." Zhou Ting said seriously.

Feng Yuanpo said: "I have thought about it, there are two ways to make use of the barbarians and prevent them from causing trouble."

"Oh?"

"First of all, there are not many barbarian soldiers transferred here. We will keep the number of barbarian soldiers to a minimum." Feng Yuanpo said: "Secondly, I ask the Holy One to confer titles on these thirteen chieftains...! "

Before he finished speaking, Xue Huai'an, Minister of the Ministry of Rites, immediately said: "Your Majesty, this matter is inappropriate. I have rarely conferred titles in the Great Qin Dynasty, and many officials who have made great contributions to the court have never been conferred titles. How can I give thirteen titles all at once?" Barbarian knighting?" He was in charge of the Ministry of Rites, and he had to handle the matter of knighting himself.

The emperor asked Feng Yuanpo: "Mr. Zhong, what is the reason for ennobling them?"

"Give them the title of the Qin State, and they are the courtiers of the empire." Feng Yuanpo said: "I will set up thirteen mansions for the thirteen chiefs in Wuping Mansion. The chiefs of the barbarian tribes dispatched by the imperial court to send troops will live in Wuping Mansion and be protected by the Hexi Army."

As soon as these words were said, everyone in the hall immediately understood that this was to place the thirteen chiefs in Wuping Mansion as hostages in order to prevent the barbarians from changing——
