Chapter 347 The Temptation of Wu Zhongshi
"Crazy!!!"

In a river valley in the Dongyan Mountain section, a group of Wu Zhonghu who had just defeated the remnants of the local Guzhu clan were waiting for Xi Beiu who had returned from Zunhua.

But after hearing Xi Bei's retelling of You Xin's request, all the elders here became angry.

Even Wu Ending Fox, the leader, frowned slightly and said, "Didn't the other party have divination?"

"Divination?" Xi Bei was stunned, then shook his head slightly, "The Xin family's attitude towards negotiations is very subtle. Basically, the decision is made by the patriarch Xin Qu. There are no elders to coordinate."

Wu Zhonghu was stunned for a moment, then stood up and walked around: "So, the Xin family is basically controlled by Xin Qu? He shouldn't be that old, less than twenty?"

Wu Zhongmi is over 20 years old and has three sons. When Xinqu and Wu Zhongmi became sworn brothers, he regarded Wu Zhongmi as his eldest brother. From this point of view, at such a young age, Xin Qu actually has a direct influence of tens of thousands of people. The capabilities of the population tribe, this is not good news.

"Maybe they discussed it in advance?"

Some elders also realized the purpose of Wu Zhonghu Wen's words and hurriedly spoke out.

But Xi Bei raised his eyebrows: "But I haven't seen any other elders of the Xin family. According to what I learned, the system of the Xin family is a title system established by Xin Qu.

This system is very special. No one cares about blood or ordinary blood relations.

Rather, they can only be promoted after they work on the battlefield and work in the rear to ensure logistics.

In other words, even if you are a prisoner of war or a slave, the Xin family will not kill you at will, but will let you do various things so that you can earn the right to survive through labor.

As long as you survive, you can be assigned to the household of a certain person with the Xin family and a noble title in the future, and serve as his slave. You can go to the battlefield with this head of the household, and then after you perform meritorious service on the battlefield, you can become a member of the Xin family. Sir.

At the same time, if the head of the household successfully allows his slaves to ascend to the title of nobility, he will also receive rewards from the clan leader, including land, title, more slaves and reduced obligations. "

Xi Bei has been in Zunhua looking for Wu Zhongmi for a while. Naturally, he has not been idle, so he also searched for news about the Xin family.

What shocked him the most was the Xin family's title system.

Because the title system does not value lineage or kinship, it only values ​​what you can contribute to the entire Youxin clan.

The biggest charm of Qin Zhi is that in the early stages of starting a business, it uses limited resources to encourage more people to join.

To be able to rise above the mediocre, for many people from small tribes, this will be an invincible attraction.

But for Wu Zhonghu, this is not good news. More importantly, after listening to what Xi Bei said, Wu Zhongmi said bluntly that he left the negotiation matter to Xin Qu, which means that after ordering The Zhi family is now standing around Xin Qu.

Whatever Xin said, Ling Zhi would not resist at all.

In this case, the problem arises.

Since the Lingzhi clan did not resist, it did not mean that the Xin clan could directly bribe other tribes in the mountains through the Lingzhi clan.

After all, compared with the Xin family's notoriety in Shannan, the Lingzhi family is a mountain person after all, and there are still channels for communication between Shan Rong.

The Lingzhi clan became a heretic among Shanrong, and it was also the most abhorrent heretic.

If the Xin family directly attacks the mountains, Wu Zhonghu can also use the fact that the Xin family is an outsider and has evil intentions to unite more tribes.

But if the Xin family is really basically a controlling shareholder of the Lingzhi family, then the Lingzhi family will be the nail used to break the unity of the mountain people.

"We must show the Xin family some color! Who are you looking down on!" A younger elder couldn't sit still and stood up from the table. His roar made many thinking people frown.

Wu Zhonghu secretly sighed, how many of these young guys can really calm down?

At the same age, why are these bastards so impatient when Xinqu in the south is like this?

Wuzhuhu paused for a moment and continued to ask Xi Bei: "Aside from threats, did the other party say anything else?"

Xi Bei thought for a while and said quickly: "It's true. The leader of the Xin clan told me that he just needed an excuse to stay in Zunhua and keep an eye on the remnants of the Guzhu clan."

"Oh!" Wuzhuhu suddenly realized, "So, when you went there, the Guzhu clan resisted?"

"When I went there, the war was over." Xi Bei shook his head slightly, "The Youxin clan had too many armored soldiers. I asked people from the Xi tribe in the central and southern areas of the Guzhu clan, and they told me that the Youxin clan arrived in Yongzhu in early summer. Ping County, and then summoned the tribes to discuss the division of territory.

But a few did not come, so the Xin family, in the name of the co-leader, called on all the tribes to send troops together.Although they sent out troops together, they were actually the ones who led the troops out, and then watched the Youxin clan destroy these rebellious tribes head-on.

Then, Xin Qu ennobled people on a large scale near the Luan River, and divided the territory according to the population and number of households of each tribe.

Then the square between the land and the land is the road.

However, I heard that the conflict is still there, because Xinqu divided the land very strangely. Instead of dividing it according to the normal division, he drew horizontal and vertical lines on the ground, turning each family's land into a square space.

This results in someone having to use water to pass by someone else's property, but the other person refuses to let you pass, so you still have to fight if you should. "

When Xi Bei said this, Wu Zhonghu's cheeks twitched slightly: "So, the Mo family's people don't care?"

"I can't control it. Because in this war, several of the Mo family did not join the alliance, so they were moved westward by Xinqu. It is said that they moved to Yanqing County.

The Xin family is located in several counties in the west, among which Yanqing County is the largest, with several counties below it, which should not be underestimated. "

"Across the east and west...controlling Shannan, there is the Xin family..."

Wu Zhonghu felt in trouble.

It seems that his eldest son is very clear. It's not that he doesn't want to negotiate with Xi Bei personally, but that he knows that it is useless for him to negotiate now.

The one who can really influence the situation in the mountains is the Xin family.

"Clan leader! Why are you thinking so much? If you want to fight, just fight!"

"That's right! We are not afraid of him!"

Wu Zhonghu paused for a moment, then picked up the pottery bowl on the table and smashed it: "Shut up! Others threaten to start a war, but do you really think they will go deep into the mountains? Naive! Xin's purpose has never been Not the depths of the mountains, but the population and passes!
Didn't you hear clearly what Xi Bei said: What Mr. Xin wants is that before next spring, wherever he goes, that's his territory?
Do you think he would really take control of the mountain's northern fortress when the mountain is blocked by heavy snow?

The most they can do is build a city along the mouth of the river mouth of Qinglong Mountain.

All day long, if you don't look at where the enemy and we are, you just focus on fighting.

There may be a chance of winning in the mountains, but what about out of the mountains?

When the Xin clan has 1 people, it can defeat the Guzhu clan with 5 people. How many people do we have?Going out to die? "

The faces of these people changed slightly.The young man also lowered his head and did not dare to speak.

Wu Zhonghu is still very prestigious, at least the strength lies here.

"Xi Bei, go talk to him. You can give him the land and prisoners. You can bring a group of old and weak people over later.

But it is impossible to give him any food or military expenses.However, we can trade. It just so happened that I captured some prisoners of war from the Guzhu clan. It was difficult to deal with them, so I sold them to him. "

"what!"

As soon as Wuzhonghu said these words, many people looked at him in disbelief.

But Wu Zhonghu didn't care and continued: "As long as he remembers, the people in the mountains will handle matters in the mountains themselves. Tell him not to go too far, otherwise he will irritate everyone in the mountains, and he will have an easy time."

"But...I'm worried that Xinqu will refuse."

"It doesn't matter if you refuse. The kindness we have shown is enough. If he persists in persisting, let's try each other's strength and see who is stronger."

Wu Zhonghu looked at the boys and said, "You guys, please move to the south. If any of the Xin clan is really shameless, then let them go into the mountains and start fighting. There is no need to be taboo.

But remember, you can’t go out of the mountains to the flat ground. There are too many Xin people on the flat ground, and it will be too easy for us! "

"Yes!" These boys finally breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that they were trying to bring the Xin family into the mountains to fight.

"Okay, let's do the divination for the rest." Wu Zhonghu asked people to divination the good or bad luck of this set.

But in fact, I still envy Xin Qu for deciding with one word.

He also wanted to have high status and prestige!
