Horse on the World

Chapter 333
According to Li Qing, since he wanted to give a favor, he might as well give it a bigger favor. Bayar was already dead, and no matter how high the standard of his funeral was, it would not pose any threat to him. It helps to digest the hostility of some grassland people towards themselves, and is conducive to Dingzhou's rule and digestion of the grassland.

At the end of the war, the grassland barbarians were defeated. In fact, it was not the ordinary herdsmen on the grassland who were most affected. Those who can feed them, make their life better every day, and give them hope for the future, then they will not rebel and will not threaten their own rule.Those who are most affected are those with vested interests in the grassland barbarians. The failure of the barbarians will inevitably cause great losses to their interests. will not be guaranteed.Then, appeasing these people first is the top priority.Although these people exploited the barbarian ordinary herdsmen very heavily, it is undeniable that their appeal is also great, and the people have a strong attachment mentality. It is very likely that there will be waves on the grassland again, and what Li Qing needs now is a stable grassland.

So, based on this, Bayar's aftermath is a reassurance. Since he is lenient to his greatest enemy Bayar, these followers will not have much trouble.When they stopped, the grassland also stopped. The next thing is to boil the frogs in warm water. Slowly, Dingzhou will let the grassland people feel that under the rule of Dingzhou, their lives will be better. , will be richer, and their social status will be higher. At that time, their attachment to these nobles will weaken and become weaker, until one day, they will consider themselves as members of the Dingzhou family from the heart, When they will stand up and fight in order to harm their own interests, then the effective occupation of the grassland will be truly completed. Of course, this may take ten years, 20 years or even longer.

Li Qing had already drawn up several decrees in his mind, but the most important thing now was the issue of Bayar's burial.Li Qing promised to Boyan and others that he would set up a funeral committee, and that he would assume the responsibilities by name. Boyan, Sushun, Nuo Qi'a and others would be in charge of the actual operation. The emperor's burial specifications came to bury Bayar's.

To Li Qing's surprise, the three of them opposed Li Qing's plan with one voice.

Boyan stood up, the barbarians were defeated, and after Huhe died, the actual number two man of the barbarians was extremely sad. Bayar went to die, but left an order for him to support the overall situation. Sushun had been Li Qing was completely defeated from strength to psychology, and he was no longer able to bear the heavy responsibility. Although Nuo Qi'a was talented, he was young and lacked qualifications to coordinate the overall situation.I'm afraid it will take many more years for him to take up the burden.

Although the barbarians were defeated, hundreds of thousands of tribesmen still had to survive. Boyan's responsibility now was not to think about how to defeat Li Qing, but to think hard about how to fight for a better living environment for the barbarians under Li Qing's ruling structure. In history, after a nation is defeated by another nation, the cleansing is quite cruel. Boyan is fully prepared for this. How to preserve the vitality is his key consideration. What is necessary is to abandon a part of the people. It is a helpless act.But judging from Li Qing's actions now, it seems that Li Qing is not planning to clean up the grassland. This makes Boyan a little puzzled, and he feels a little chills in his heart. Does Li Qing have some conspiracy? And the backhand, did I not think of it?

For this opponent who is several decades younger than himself, Boyan now has a feeling of admiration, because he really can't guess the opponent's thoughts.The barbarians fought against the Great Chu for hundreds of years. In history, the heroic emperor of the Great Chu also defeated the barbarians and captured the barbarian leader Su Die alive. On the city wall of Fuyuan, it was not until decades after the death of Emperor Yingwu, when the barbarians rose again, that they snatched back Sudie's human skin and buried it in peace.This is a disgrace in the history of the barbarians. Boyan did not expect that hundreds of years later, the barbarians would fail again, and this time the failure would be completely shattered.

Li Qing wants to bury Bayar in a grand manner, what does he want to do?
"Marshal Li, we cannot agree to your plan. Since you have generously allowed us to bury His Majesty with the highest standard of the emperor, then we will let His Majesty rest in peace in accordance with the customs of our grassland!" Boyan said a little uneasy, the first time Discussing important matters with Li Qing, he categorically rejected Li Qing's proposal. He was a little worried that the other party would lose his face and lose his temper.

Li Qing felt a little surprised. He thought that the other party would be very moved by his plan, but he didn't expect the three of them to oppose it. After thinking about it, it was also true that the funeral customs of the grassland and the Central Plains are very different. It's normal for them to think it's inappropriate to bury Bayar, but that's good, at least they will veto this matter to make them calm down a little more. After all, if they bury Bayar with the rules of the emperor of the Central Plains, it will be reported later. The Central Plains is not very good either. You must know that in the hearts of the Central Plains people, the grassland is just a small thief. Unlike Dingzhou people who both hate and respect the grassland people. The two sides have fought for so many years, but they know each other well.

"Since that's the case, then all the plans will be drawn up by you, and you will report to me after you have discussed it, okay?" Li Qing said generously with a smile on his face.

The three of them stood up together, bowed to Li Qing and said, "Thank you, Marshal Li!"

As soon as the news that Li Qing would bury Bayar generously came out, the turbulent Bayan Har City immediately quieted down a lot. Responsible for the security of Bayan Hara, while Lu Shi, Qi Nian Shi, and Lu Dabing and Fu Sen's Red Army are stationed outside the city.The Yishan Division came ashore from Xidu and fought all the way. Although the victories continued, the losses were not small. Although they were replenished later, the experience and combat effectiveness of the new recruits were far behind the original veterans. This made the Yishan Division On the contrary, the combat effectiveness of the army has declined, and 3 people seem to be a lot of people, but when they are allocated to a big city like Bayan Har, they seem weak.

The information collected from the two intelligence systems of the Statistics and Investigation Department and the Military Intelligence Department made Guo Shanfeng feel a little more at ease, and it seems that there will be no problems for the time being.

Guo Shanfeng breathed a sigh of relief, but Li Qing found it difficult with Boyan's plan. Li Qing didn't know the burial customs of the barbarians at that time. It is said that if the barbarian people are allowed to go to pay homage, then it is conceivable that a large number of barbarians will definitely arrive at that time. If there are too many people, chaos will easily arise.

Li Qing hesitated, and Boyan and the others also looked at Li Qing nervously. This plan was specially discussed by the three of them to test Li Qing. There is no follow-up method. If Li Qing intends to exterminate the barbarians, then Li Qingda can mobilize heavy troops and gather and wipe them out when the barbarians gather.You know, the barbarians are now disarmed. In front of the armed and toothed Dingzhou soldiers, they are completely like fish on a felt board.

"Master Boyan, I wonder if you have considered that if a large number of grassland people gather here, some people with ulterior motives can take advantage of it? Once there is a dispute, I am afraid that it will be a big trouble for me and you!" Li Qing spoke carefully and carefully, he valued the three important people who could stabilize the grassland in front of him, and his tone also had a hint of discussion.

Boyan let out a heavy breath, glanced at Sushun and Nuoqi'a, and saw a sense of relaxation in their eyes, "Marshal Li, we have already figured out a solution to this problem. For the clansmen in Bayan Har City, each family can only send out one person, and for the tribal worshipers from outside, we plan to only let each clan leader lead ten people into the scene. In this way, the number of people should be controlled within [-] people! "

Li Qing nodded, "That's good, it seems that the three of you have already thought it through!" Li Qing's mind flashed like lightning, and it was only then that he realized that Boyan was trying to test him. He agreed, fearing that things would have another twists and turns, he shook his head, just looking at the mentality of the three people in front of him, he knew that there was a long way to go to win the trust of the barbarians.

Looking down at the plan of Boyan and the other three, I found that the ceremony site they chose was also ingenious. It happened to be in the area between the two armies of Wang Qinian and Lu Dalin. , Li Qing couldn't help showing a smile, and Boyan was still sensible.

Putting down the document in his hand, Li Qing said: "Then let's do it like this! I will pay homage to His Majesty Bayar in person then."

Five days later, outside the city of Bayan Har, Bayar's mourning hall had been fully furnished. Inside the huge coffin, Bayar in golden armor was lying in it, with his favorite weapons in his life and some personal belongings beside him. The objects were carefully repaired by medical officials in Dingzhou, and the appearance of Bayar after death was as lifelike as before.

Bayar's huge influence on the grassland was perfectly demonstrated at this moment. The leaders of countless small tribes scattered on the grassland resolutely brought ten subordinates to the memorial site regardless of safety, and the number far exceeded that of Bo Yaer. Yan estimated in advance that although they disarmed before entering, nearly 2 barbarians gathered together, which made Wang Qinian and Lu Dalin on the outskirts nervous. Both troops entered the highest level of security, while Bayan Hara The passing mountain wind in the city made the troops enter a battle state. You know, Bayar was forced to death by the Dingzhou army. At the memorial site, if the crowd became angry, it would be a terrible riot. [-] Thousands of people, even [-] pigs, would take a long time to chop.

All the generals objected to Li Qing's entry into the memorial site. Li Qing would definitely not be able to bring a large number of troops into the venue, but if he only brought a few guards, how would his safety be guaranteed? What if Li Qing is kidnapped to threaten the Dingzhou Army?
Li Qing has other ideas. The current situation proves that even though Bayar is dead, he still has great influence, but this influence is only limited to how the barbarians miss him. The dead are dead, and the living Life still has to go on. Although these tribal leaders miss Bayar, they will not take the lives of their entire clan to avenge the dead Bayar.And Boyan and others are even more so. If they want to do this, Bayar will really die in vain.

"The more this is the case, the more I want to go!" Li Qing said decisively. "This is the best chance to show our sincerity to the barbarians. I'm not afraid of Bayar alive. Don't I even have the courage to stand in front of his coffin when he's dead?"

Li Qing blatantly rejected the suggestions of his generals, and decided to show up at the memorial ceremony on time.
