Chapter 240 It’s better to teach a man to fish than to teach him to fish

The leader of the tribe had his tendons exposed, and he also wore many bone ornaments that were completely different from those of the Han people. Looking at these armed sword and axe-hands, his expression was full of hostility and vigilance, and he pressed the button unconsciously with one hand. On the weapon at the waist, said.

"That's right. Do you want us to send you in?"

"No, just ask your subordinates to put those thieves on the ground." A swordsman said.

As soon as these words came out, the five tribal leaders who came together this time looked at each other, and then shouted orders to the Shanyue people who were carrying the unconscious Shanyue man on their backs.

And as those unconscious Shanyue men were put on the ground, the tribal leaders thought that these Han people were preparing to conduct inspection or identification.

What these Shanyue tribe leaders never expected was that the five hundred axemen approached the Shanyue men lying on the ground, and suddenly pulled out their axes and chopped off the heads of the unconscious Shanyue men.

Almost in one breath, five hundred pillars of blood shot up, making the two thousand Shanyue people who came down carrying these Shanyue men turn pale.

The five Shanyue tribe leaders looked shocked and glanced at each other unconsciously. Apart from shock, the expressions in their eyes were all pure luck.

Previously, when many Shanyue tribe leaders were discussing this matter, some people had asked whether they should take the opportunity to sneak attack the Han army.

The number of Shanyue that needs to be handed over is two thousand. As long as the two thousand Shanyue pretend to be unconscious, and then carry the two thousand Shanyue down, as long as they can enter the Han army camp.

If four thousand Shanyue elites suddenly attack, it may not be possible for the Han army to fall into chaos, and then the remaining Shanyue will take advantage of the situation to rush in, and the predicament will be solved.

At this moment, the five tribal leaders looked at each other and felt that they were lucky not to play tricks on the Han people, otherwise even this last chance for peace talks would be completely lost.

Those two thousand Shanyue men were all unconscious.

However, the two thousand Shanyue men did not really escape after attacking Qiantang County. There are many tribes in Shanyue and the management is chaotic. Even if you want to find the two thousand Shanyue men who attacked Qiantang County, it is impossible. .

Therefore, these two thousand Shanyue men belonged to a small tribe, and were sacrifices pushed out by most tribal leaders to appease the anger of the Han people.

And such a naked killing by these five hundred swordsmen and axemen made the rest of the Shanyue people present feel dejected and terrified.

Who says the Han people are not cruel? !

At this moment, in the eyes of these Shanyue people, the cruelty of the Han people far exceeded them. They chopped off the heads of the two thousand Shanyue men without stopping before they stopped.

This was also the first time that a truth was carved with blood in the hearts of these Shanyue people: Those who hurt the Han people would be killed without mercy.

It was not until the two thousand Shanyue men who were sent to the door were all beheaded that Xu Sheng, who was leading a group of archers in the Han army's camp and was waiting, came out.

Then, the five tribal leaders whose eyes showed full of awe glanced at them and said.

"Can the five of you represent the mountains on the mountain?"

"Yes." One of the tribal leaders quickly replied.

"We, the Han people, have made a special commitment to us. Since we have promised to give you a chance for peace talks, we will not break our promise and we can relax."

Xu Sheng comforted him and then spoke.

"Since you can represent the rest of Shanyue, then follow me into the camp to meet General Guan."

Upon seeing this, the five tribal leaders quickly wanted to lead the remaining two thousand Shan Yue who served as personal guards towards the camp.

However, before taking two steps, Xu Sheng stopped, glanced at the two thousand Shanyue people holding weapons, and said.

"Have you misunderstood something? The peace talks are a grace given by our Lord Liu Xuande to you and others over the mountains, rather than allowing you to hold weapons and show off your power."

"Since the five of you can represent a whole mountain, what's the point of needing them to keep up? If you want to fight to the death, Xu Sheng should accompany you."

And as Xu Sheng's words fell, the five hundred swordsmen and axemen whose bodies were stained with blood also pointed their blades in Shanyue's direction.

Although Shanyue's number was far greater than the five hundred swordsmen and axemen, the accumulated momentum of this series of Han armies had already suppressed Shanyue's spirit, let alone a fight to the death.

Immediately, the five tribal leaders quickly apologized in unskilled Chinese and asked the two thousand Shanyue to wait here. Then the five tribal leaders quickly followed Xu Sheng into the camp. .

Along the way, Guan Yu deliberately let the leaders of the Shanyue tribe show the military power of the Han army, and majestic soldiers were arranged in formations almost all along the way.

After this operation, the five tribal leaders almost felt a sense of confusion and fear as if the huskies had misunderstood the wolves. Even the road to the big tent seemed to be extremely long.

Before Xu Sheng brought the five tribal leaders to the big tent, Xu Sheng bowed from a distance and reported to the big tent.

"General Guan, five envoys sent by Shanyue have arrived."

"come in."

Guan Yu's arrogant and calm voice came from inside the tent.

"please."

Xu Sheng raised his hands to the five tribal leaders, and then led the way into the tent.

After the five tribal leaders walked in, they were first attracted by the large number of armored generals in the camp who were staring at them.

Then they saw the man sitting on the main seat, wearing a dark green brocade robe, with a face as thick as a jujube, and a beard two feet long under his chin. He was stroking his long beard with one hand, and holding a roll of spring and autumn in the other hand, squinting. Take a closer look at Guan Yu. In terms of majestic appearance, Guan Yu is amazing.

Facing Guan Yu at such a close distance made the already timid tribal leaders feel as if they were seeing a god, and they froze in place.

Guan Yu rolled his eyes and said calmly.

"Everyone, please take a seat."

Immediately, two soldiers held the seats prepared in advance and placed them behind the five tribal leaders.

When the five tribal leaders saw this, they could only imitate the Han people and kneel down on pins and needles.

Guan Yu just put down the bamboo slips in his hand and said.

"Guan is very happy that you are aware of current affairs, but it took you so long to arrive. Guan is not very satisfied."

After a pause, Guan Yu opened his squinted eyes a little, seemingly taking in the five people in front of him, and said.

"You have been delaying for so long. Are you planning something secretly? Or are you planning to send those two thousand Shanyue into the camp and take the opportunity to cause trouble?"

This question made the five tribal leaders feel as if they had been completely seen through. They instinctively panicked and shouted "don't dare".

"Hmph, I don't think you have the guts. If you ignore the kindness and grace bestowed upon you by your eldest brother Guan, I will turn all the Fuchun Mountains into powder."

Guan Yu said casually, then glanced at Xu Sheng, and closed his eyes to rest as if he had no interest in talking to a few bidders.

Xu Sheng, who had already been ordered, stepped out from the crowd and spoke.

"Listen carefully, my lord Liu Xuande, adhering to the idea of ​​benevolence and virtue, said: If you are willing to hand over to the thugs in Qiantang County, it shows that you still have the heart to do good and peace, so we will all be trapped and killed. It’s against the will of humanity.”

"Of course, death penalty can be avoided, but living crime cannot be forgiven."

As soon as these words came out, the hearts of the five tribal leaders immediately tightened. Their faces turned pale unconsciously, and they understood that the real focus was next.

"Since you have acted cruelly on the border, destroyed our people's livelihood, and lost countless money and food, you should compensate for it with your labor."

"Therefore, if you disturb our Fuchun Mountain for two months and thirteen days, we will use this as a time limit to come to our Wu County to work as laborers to cultivate fertile land and assist in farming. After the period is over, we will let you go home..."

Logically speaking, this condition does not seem to be harsh given the situation in which these Shanyue people were trapped and died in Fuchun Mountain.

However, these words changed the expressions of the five tribal leaders. Before Xu Sheng could finish speaking, they almost all protested.

"No! If our tribe is divided into different places, how can we know whether they are fish or meat?"

"If many young people cannot return to the tribe for more than two months and there is no food to send back, all the old, weak, women and children in the tribe may starve to death."

"We absolutely cannot accept this condition. We would rather fight to the death!"

"General Guan is merciful. We all know that we are wrong! However, the conditions are so harsh that we must accept them."

"Is General Guan just playing tricks on us and trying to deceive us?"

……

However, Guan Yu, who had closed his eyes to rest, slowly opened his eyes a little and said.

"If you want to fight to the death, then just fight to the death! Now you are all Guan's caged birds and turtles in the urn. It's easy to destroy you, so why waste your efforts? You don't want to hear it all. Then get out."

In an instant, the five tribal leaders felt Guan Yu's oppressive gaze, and all their words were blocked.

This is how people work for you, and I work for fish and meat!

It seemed like a peace talk, but in fact Guan Yu never meant to talk to them. He only handed over two thousand mountains and mountains to give them a chance to announce the conditions for survival.

Xu Sheng watched the five tribal leaders become quiet before speaking again.

"In addition to the above necessary punishments, considering the hardship of people's livelihood in Shanyue, Wu County will follow the example of the tea and horse trading market established in Youyan Land and establish a mutual market in Fuchun Mountain."

Mutual market? !
As soon as these words came out, the faces of the tribal leaders who originally looked angry and fearful showed a look of shock.

Shanyue, which was regarded as a mustard disease by the Han Dynasty in the past, would not go out of its way to trade with it.

Therefore, often if something is really lacking within the Shanyue tribe, they can only find ways to get it from the outside world.

Now, the emergence of the "mutual market" has undoubtedly given Shanyue a channel to obtain external supplies.

"What can be exchanged from the mutual market? And what needs to be exchanged." One of the tribal leaders asked impatiently.

"The medicinal materials, exotic fruits, rare trees, etc. provided by Shangyue, as for the things that can be exchanged in the mutual market, naturally include all necessities of life including food..."

After a pause, Xu Sheng continued. "However, what our Lord upholds is that it is better to teach a man to fish than to teach him to fish." (End of this chapter)
