Xiliang Iron Cavalry

Chapter 168: Qiang Tribe

The entire relocation team stretched for three miles, but the news of Jia Rong's arrival spread quickly. In order to appease the people, Jia Rong led some soldiers to greet these people cordially. . .

This relocation took nearly a month, and Jia Rong was very distressed after the food and money consumed were counted. Basically, the Xiliang Army was responsible for the food and other things in the middle of the journey.

After returning to Jincheng, these people were resettled immediately. In order to satisfy these people, Jia Rong even organized soldiers to ask the opinions of these people one by one, as long as they thought it was useful, they would all adopt it. Simple and simple, seeing the humble residence, these people have no opinion at all, in their opinion, as long as they have a place to live and food to eat.

As soon as the craftsman workshop was established, all the blacksmiths immediately went into production, and truckloads of raw materials were transported from nearby counties and counties, which greatly promoted the development of Jincheng, and the surrounding counties and counties were also driven a lot, but The ancients did not pay much attention to business, so there were no professionals to conduct statistics on these data.

After Jia Rong's words passed through the Xiaohuang Gate to Emperor Handi's ears, he didn't blame Jia Rong and Emperor Handi any more.

In dealing with the issues of the Qiang people, Emperor Han gave Jia Rong a great deal of power, granting Jia Rong the full authority to deal with the issues of the Qiang people, and to resolve the disputes between the Qiang people and the Han. The people tribe wanted to solve all the Qiang people's problems, but the time was not yet ripe. The most important thing was to establish enough prestige in Jincheng, and then negotiate with the chiefs of the tribes.

Jia Rong only led [-] lone wolf soldiers and came to the Qiang tribe with Li Wenhou. This made Li Wenhou admire him. The previous officials of the Han Dynasty asked the heads of the various tribes of the Qiang tribe to come to the territory of the Han to discuss. One is more afraid of death than the other. It is difficult for such an official to gain the trust of the chiefs of the Qiang people. Jia Rong's personal visit this time undoubtedly increased his chances of winning.

For Jia Rong, Li Wenhou found that he admired him more and more. Just the builder's workshop in the city made the common people earn a lot of money. In more than a month, each person earned about a consistent amount of money, which is enough for Jincheng County. The common people subsidized many households.

The people in Jincheng are not like the future world. They can support their families by finding any kind of work. Most of the people guard their family’s one-acre three-point land. Whether they can have enough food depends on God’s will. Hungry and hungry, suffering for days.

The news of Jia Rong's arrival caused a great commotion in the Qiang tribe. Many Qiang people even clamored to beat out the hypocritical Han people. Over the years, these Qiang people had suffered a lot from the Han people, so they rose up to resist.

Seeing the living environment of the Qiang people, Jia Rong couldn't help sighing. Under such harsh living conditions, even he himself would be dissatisfied. The place where the Qiang people live is not much different from the temporary sheds built in the county. It is adjacent to the Han people. The ability to build a house has also been learned a lot, but can such a house withstand a gust of wind?

The children of the Qiang tribe are like refugees from Africa. They are disheveled, gray, and dirty. Their clothes are full of patches. Even with Jia Rong’s determination, I couldn't help but feel pity in my heart.

This meeting was held in a very inconspicuous tribe. Looking at the scene of a group of strong patriarchs gathered around a few dilapidated tables, according to Li Wenhou, this is the best time when these patriarchs hold meetings. Jia Rong couldn’t help sighing that the life of foreigners is much more difficult than that of Han people, and only in such an environment can such brave and skilled soldiers be trained.

Jia Rong made a quiet movement, but the people below still had to talk and shout, clearly not paying attention to Jia Rong.

Li Wenhou murmured to the chiefs of the various ethnic groups of the Qiang people, and the chiefs of the various ethnic groups quieted down.

"I know that everyone doesn't trust me, the Qiang guard captain, and I can understand that." Just as Jia Rong finished speaking, a lone wolf soldier beside him quickly translated Jia Rong's words.

Seeing the Qiang soldiers around Jia Rong, many patriarchs showed surprise eyes. They Qiang people are the lowest level figures in the eyes of the Han people. Not only do they have no military salary in the Han army, but they also eat more than the Han soldiers Poor, I am also very worried about the Qiang soldiers. During the war, the Qiang people are always at the forefront, and they are often looked down upon by the Han soldiers.

The soldier next to Jia Rong was clearly a Qiang. It is said that the officials of the Han Dynasty should not lead the Qiang people with them when they go out. Especially on such occasions, they should bring the Han people they trust more.

A clan leader of the Qiang tribe stood up and said: "We Qiang people just don't trust you shameless Han officials, no matter how good you say, we don't believe it."

The words of this Qiang patriarch won the support of many patriarchs. These are all Qiang tribes who have suffered greatly from the Han people.

Jia Rong nodded, and the lone wolf soldier immediately translated the words of the Qiang patriarch to Jia Rong.

The expected fury of the patriarchs did not appear on Jia Rong. Jia Rong still had a faint smile on his face and asked, "What is the name of this patriarch?"

The clan leader of the Qiang tribe said loudly: "My name is Lou Yu. If you want to get revenge on me, come here. I have never been afraid of Lou Yu."

After the scene calmed down, Jia Rong said slowly: "Nothing can be generalized. After a few years, I don't know if you Qiang people will remember that there is a captain who protects Qiang like me, but I can guarantee that I will never let you go. When you mention me, you just gnash your teeth, Lou Yu, I'm afraid you're going to make a mistake this time."

Looking at Jia Rong's confident expression, Lou Yu believed Jia Rong's words for some reason, as if the Qiang people would live a good life if they followed him, which was a feeling that the former Captain Hu Qiang didn't have.

Jia Rong's words made the scene boil. Many patriarchs whispered to each other and kept arguing about something. Li Wenhou stood by with an apologetic face.

A Qiang patriarch stood up and said loudly: "You Han people always say one thing and do another, how can we trust you?"

After listening to the soldier's translation, Jia Rong said with a smile: "Don't you Qiang people yearn for the life of the Han people? Now I am not only the captain of the Qiang guard, but also the prefect of Jincheng County. As long as you want, you can move to Jincheng County at any time. Besides, this prefect will specially set aside a place for you to live in, and will also provide you with houses, as long as you work hard, you can reclaim fertile land."

Jia Rong's words were no less than a magnitude [-] earthquake in the ears of the various patriarchs. In the past, these patriarchs had been rejected without exception when they talked with the Qiang captain. In the eyes of other officials of the Han Dynasty, foreigners should have suffered Therefore, they should have no food or clothing, because they are barbarians, but Jia Rong did not mention any conditions, and directly allowed the Qiang people to move to the territory of the Han Dynasty, and also provided them with housing and land. Compared with the captain, it is like a sky and an earth.

The patriarchs saw that Jia Rong's sincere face did not seem to be fake, and won the favor of many Qiang patriarchs. They felt very happy talking with this young Qiang guard.

Seeing that many patriarchs still looked disbelieving, Jia Rong said: "Under the prefect's rule, both Qiang and Han people may become officials. If you don't believe me, you can check it out. More than half of the soldiers are soldiers from the Qiang tribe, and maybe many of them are from your tribe."

A Qiang patriarch said excitedly: "Master Xiaowei, I believe in you!"

In the past, many officials were perfunctory in this way, but when they actually arrived in the territory of the Han people, it was a different scene.

Many Qiang patriarchs stood up and expressed their belief that compared with the greedy appearance of the Qiang guards in the past, they could feel that Jia Rong really thought about the Qiang people, and just now after Jia Rong finished speaking, Li Wenhou also Stand up and say that half of the soldiers in the Xiliang Army are indeed Qiang people.

Jia Rong got up and said with a smile, "Thank you all the patriarchs for your love. The Qiang people and the Han people are the same in my eyes. Now let me talk about the things that the Qiang people should pay attention to when they are in the territory of the Han people."

Many Qiang patriarchs whispered to each other when they heard this. Although they couldn't understand what they were talking about, looking at their expressions and disdainful eyes, Jia Rong guessed what they were thinking.

Jia Rong waved his hand, and the patriarchs of all tribes cooperated and quieted down, quietly watching what kind of conditions Jia Rong would offer them, and even many Qiang patriarchs were ready to be slaughtered. Giving gifts to Captain Hu Qiang is still not allowed to move to the territory of Dahan, and now such a good opportunity is naturally not to be missed, even if a certain price is paid, as long as the tribe no longer has to worry about life, it is enough.

Clearing his throat, Jia Rong said: "Under my rule, no matter Qiang people or Han people, everyone is equal, and there is no distinction of race. As long as someone is found to insult the Qiang people, they will be punished and will not be tolerated."

One stone stirred up a thousand waves, and the patriarchs of the various ministries were completely boiled. If Jia Rong said before that it was good news for them to move to the territory of Dahan, then what Jia Rong said just now is undoubtedly a big pie from the sky. The patriarch looked at Jia Rong with a lot of eagerness, especially some older patriarchs looked at Jia Rong with even more excitement. It is leftovers, and there is no military salary, and they are discriminated against by the Han people everywhere.

Seeing that Jia Rong was about to speak again, the patriarchs present stopped tacitly and looked at Jia Rong intently. His eager eyes made Jia Rong feel a little embarrassed. Just imagine a group of elders looking at you like this. Do you want to stay in this house?
