When Pan Geng moved to Yin, I initiated Jian Shang

Chapter 346 What is negotiation?If you don't agree, I'll fight you!
In addition to arranging the canonization of Shi Wu, Xin Qu also quickly made most people in the Xin family feel that something was unusual.

First of all, Xinqu actually started to enfeoff the land. Although it was only a village unit, this also meant that the Xin family's administrative direction was adjusted to: county-township-village community.

Among them, counties are under direct jurisdiction, townships and towns are expected to be divided into rural areas and cities. The rural areas may become autonomous or fiefdoms in the future, while small towns are responsible for gathering resources and suppressing rebellions.

As for the She, Xinqu had split up some of the tribesmen transferred to Zunhua, and the She had implemented the Baojia system.

Xin Qu arranged the temples of the two saints She and Ji, and then arranged the three positions of chief Jia, chief Bao and chief of the temple.

The Jia chief is responsible for coordinating development, the Bao chief is arranged by the county and is responsible for the formation of local armed forces and the arrest of bandits. The Miao Zhu is dispatched by the elder Zongbo directly ordered by Xin Qu.

In a community, a group of ten households elects a group leader, and then a group of group leaders jointly elects a chief, or they rotate, and each chief serves for ten years.

Cannot be re-elected, but can be elected for a third term.

Chief Jia is responsible for organizing production, mediating disputes, and providing tax transfers to the county.

The Baochang is mainly the backbone of the militia, ranked according to their title, and is responsible for the selection of militiamen within a community. Adults from each household must enter the Bao for training. When there is no need to mobilize corvees, they train troops in the winter.

As for the temple director, Xin Qu, the Sheji believer, is one of the main advocates. In addition to Sheji, there are other large-scale beliefs. Therefore, the temple director’s responsibility is to maintain local beliefs, and to be responsible for surveillance and policy propaganda to a certain extent, to prevent local people from completely becoming A stepping stone for local wealthy families.

Of course, this is also a struggle between divine power and local rights.

But now Xinqu has no other choice. His Youxin clan is mainly formed by the fusion of multiple ethnic groups and tribes. It must be unified with everyone's ideas, otherwise once the propaganda high ground is lost, it may be usurped.

The ancestral structure he finally built may be distorted.

Therefore, Xinqu adjusted the household registration configuration of the community as much as possible to achieve: the ratio of tribesmen, naturalized people, slaves, and guests was 3:4:2:1.

After adjusting the local population ratio design of Zunhua, Xinqu heard the sound of footsteps. Just as the matter was basically over, he put down the pen in his hand.

Then he saw Qingyan coming in with a middle-aged man dressed as a Shanrong noble: "Dear Xin clan leader, my name is Bei, you can call me Xi Bei. I am here to negotiate peace with your tribe. It just happened.”

Xinqu stood up: "Eldest brother did tell me that you have contacted him, hoping to call a truce and live a good life, but the terms you offered before are not acceptable to eldest brother."

Hearing Xin Qu's words, Xi Bei didn't speak.

Because Wu Zhongmi was really tired of Wu Zhonghu's pulling, and he didn't give much, but he only wanted to make money.

So Wu Zhongmi simply left the negotiation to Xin Qu.

That's right, he really left the negotiation to Xin Qu, and he took the people around for a walk.

Wu Zhong's old stronghold was about to become completely like Xin's. He also felt something about this defeat and wanted to visit his old place again.

As for why he dared to leave it to Xinqu to negotiate, Wu Zhongmi knew very well that with Xin Qu's character, it was impossible for him to suffer. Xin Qu would definitely try his best to balance the strength between the Lingzhi clan and the Wu Zhong clan.

But now, Ling Zhi is the weaker side. After all, he suffered a lot from this defeat and many soldiers were captured.

If Xinqu chooses to give up on this group of people, Ling Zhi may not say anything on the surface, but in his heart, his sense of Xin will plummet.

If Xinqu could get these people back, he would feel relieved, and the Lingzhi family would also be grateful to Xinqu, so that Xinqu would have the possibility of infiltrating the Lingzhi family.

Faced with survival or being penetrated, Wu Zhongmi chose survival without hesitation.

Therefore, Wu Zhongmi did not hesitate to step aside and let Xin Qu condescend to meet the negotiating elder of the Wu Zhong clan, which was extremely worry-free.

But the more important reason why Xinqu agreed to the negotiation was that he wanted to test the management team of Wu Zhongshi.

If this group of people is weak or idiots, then Xinqu is still worried about not having enough slaves this year, so he might as well go into the mountains and plunder when he has time after the autumn harvest.

"Having said that." Xibei paused and said, "Our Shanrong tribes have completely merged into one because of the chaos caused by the Guzhu clan. Although the situation in the mountains is not very good, there are still a lot of people. Therefore, We need a certain amount of hunting in the mountains and forests to survive. How about you withdraw from the mountains and we return the Lingzhi prisoners of war."

As soon as Xi Bei said these words, Xin Qu stared at him as if he were an idiot: "Is Wushuhu really old and stupid? I sent you here to talk nonsense? You are the ones who came to seek peace on their own initiative, how dare you ask me to do so?" Exit the mountains?"

"Head of the Xin clan, you are still too young. The mountains are not a good place."

"I don't need a good place, I just need to block a few mountain passes and rivers to prevent the large troops from the mountains from rushing out."

"No, no, no! Mountain passes cannot block all hunting warriors. They can also cross mountains and ridges to hunt." Xi Bei's threat has been very clear. It is useless to occupy mountain passes, because we can go over mountains and ridges to see you. , you will only be very passive guarding the mountain pass.

Xin Qu smiled: "I can see that you are very good at pretending to be stupid. Yes, you can walk in the mountains and forests, but can you mobilize more than 1000 people to climb over the mountains head-on in seven days?
Aren't you afraid that I will lock the mountain and seal you in the mountain?

Apart from those river valleys, where else can there be people alive in the mountains?
There are insects, snakes, tigers and leopards all over the place, and the swamps are full of miasma. Even if you go into the old forest, you will lose half your life. Do you really think I don’t know? "

"..." Xi Bei's eyes flickered.

Xin Qu smiled disdainfully: "You are just saying this because you think I am young and think I have no common sense. But don't forget, my Xin family was able to mobilize 5000 people to the battlefield a year ago, and now I can mobilize 1 people to the battlefield. .

What kind of soldiers did I get?What number of soldiers?You people from the mountains all know that logistics need to be mobilized through rivers, and that walking through mountains, rivers, and valleys that have been opened in advance is more labor-saving.

Would I not understand?

So, don't say these worthless words, I am worried that after suppressing the Guzhu clan's rebellion this time, there will be no reason to stay and keep an eye on them.

I told you my conditions. As long as you don't give them, I will just stay and mobilize the troops of the Guzhu clan in the east to send troops north to plunder.

I want to see which one is more powerful, your Wu Zhong clan or the Gu Zhu clan.

Not to mention, I am not weak even if I have the Xin family! "

Xi Bei didn't expect Xin Qu to be so direct and not argue with him.

I only heard Xin Qu's direct quotation: "First, there is the territory of the Xin clan and the Wu Zhong clan. Before the spring of next year, wherever I occupy is the territory of the Xin clan. It's okay to cross the border. I have the Xin clan to catch these people. , they will be turned into slaves and sold, so be careful.

Second, return all the prisoners of war and the families of the prisoners of war to the Lingzhi family. If they don't agree, they will be beaten.

Third, this time your ministry provoked my Xin family ally, which caused me Xin family to go to war. You can figure out all the expenses and food this time, as well as the pension for my Xin family's war dead.

Fourth, the Lingzhi clan and the Wuzhong clan were bounded by the center of Baektou Forest, with the Lingzhi clan to the west and the Wuzhong clan to the east.

As for the rest, everyone depends on their ability. "

"This... How can it be reasonable for me, the Wu Zhongshi, to bear the pension and expenses of your department? This is unreasonable!"

"Okay, go back and tell Wu Zhonghu that this winter, either get out of Yanshan and go to the northeast to find the remnants of the Guzhu clan, or be prepared to be attacked by the Xin clan and the Lingzhi clan jointly sending troops.

I am ready to lead the tribes of the two tribes to search the mountains and burn the forests.

Everyone in the world knows that I, Xinqu, made my fortune by relying on the god of fire. I can burn in the south of the mountain, and I can also burn in the north of the mountain.As long as all the mountains and forests near the large valleys where people can live in the mountains are burned, I don't believe that you can feed you with the meager yield of bean sprouts.

Even if you plant bean sprouts and wait until the seedlings are about to mature, I will send people into the mountains to burn all your bean sprouts. In addition to entering the old forest and fighting bloody battles with tigers, leopards and bears, you will also have to starve in the winter and fight with other mountain tribes. , do you have any other way out?

If you accept my terms, everyone will be happy, if you don't accept..."

Xin Qu sneered and looked at Xi Beiu in disbelief: "Don't believe it? Then try it?"

"..."

Xi Bei lowered his head, his forehead already covered with beads of sweat.

He dare not bet!
It is really possible for Xin Qu to do such a thing!
After all, Xinqu started his career with all kinds of incredible things, highlighting a ruthless character.

"But……"

"Okay, if you can do it, go away. Wash your neck and be slaughtered. I have people from the east of the Xin clan, mainly the Guzhu clan. They don't necessarily know less about the situation in the mountains than you do. "

Xin Qu spread his hands, Xi Bei was startled, and said quickly: "I know, I will rush back to inform the clan leader and urge the clan leader to agree."

"You only have ten days to give me the answer. If you exceed the deadline, the war is not over yet. This winter I will start burning the forest all the way north."

Xin Qu waved his hand and was pulled away by Qing Yan before Xi Bei said there was not enough time.
