Several elders stood up together and said, "My lord, please tell me,"
Liu Xin waved his hand and said: "My conditions are very simple. From now on there is no Shanyue ethnic group. All Shanyue people must move out of the mountain and live mixedly with the Han people."
"No," a few elders stood up and said in unison, "We can't agree to this condition,"
Liu Xin also stood up and said coldly: "You don't have to answer me in such a hurry, I will give you three days to think about it."
The elders looked at each other, but the expressions on their faces were very firm, and they all put on an uncompromising posture. One of them sneered and said, "If we don't agree to your terms,"
"In three days, I will tell you what the consequences will be," Liu Xin brushed his sleeves and left the restaurant with Xu Chu and his guards.
The three-day time is fast, and the short is short. In these three days, the elders have not suffered any difficulties. They can even walk freely outside the post house. However, now is a critical moment related to the life and death of the Shanyue tribe. All the elders did not have the mind to play on the bustling Xiangyang Street. Apart from eating and sleeping, they gathered together to discuss countermeasures. Three days passed, but everyone’s opinions were never unified.
Liu Xin came again, this time he came directly to the post house.
For three days, for these elders, it seemed that after three years, all of them looked haggard and languid.
Seeing this, Liu Xin laughed and said, "What's the matter with you? Could it be that you are not sleeping well in the post? If anyone dares to neglect you, you can ask me directly,"
To be honest, the conditions of the post house are many times better than their villages in Jiangnan, and for the elders who were unable to eat some time ago, not only can they fill their stomachs, but they also have drinks. It’s a fairy-like day to have meat, but these elders have not been overthrown by the wine and food. They still keep their mission in mind. Someone has already stepped forward and asked, "My lord can answer us now. What are the consequences if we don’t agree to the conditions you put forward,"
Liu Xin smiled and said, "No hurry, let you see a few people first."
After that, Liu Xin walked to the backyard of the post house. The post house in Xiangyang City is quite large. It not only receives officials and messengers from other places, but also opens to ordinary people in their free time. However, because there are dozens of elders living in Here, the post house is temporarily closed, and there are many empty houses behind.
With Liu Xin patted and slapped, many young women walked out of the room. They were the beauties of the clan that the elders had brought from the south of the Yangtze River. The elders asked in surprise, "Didn’t the sires betroth them to your soldiers , What does this mean,"
Liu Xin nodded and said: "Yes, they have all been betrothed to the Flying Tiger guards under Liu's command. You can ask them now, if one of them is willing to go back to Jiangnan with you, Liu will definitely not Stop it, and will agree to your tribe to stay on the mountain,"
The elders issued a burst of violence, and then couldn’t wait to move forward. These women were personally selected from the tribe, so they all knew the people in their tribe. There were a total of 370 young women, representing the three. Seventeen tribes, the elders do not believe that among so many women, none of them is willing to return to the Jiangnan village. They want to convince Liu Xin.
As the women were questioned one by one, the faces of the elders became more and more ugly, and no woman was willing to return to Jiangnan with them.
This result has long been expected by Liu Xin. Among the Han people, men are already inferior to women. This situation is even more serious in the Shanyue tribe. Women have almost no status in the family and are completely vassals of the family. Liu Xin chose The flying tiger guards who came out to marry these women are not only tall and mighty, but also handsome. More importantly, these flying tiger guards have read books, and some of them are literate and hyphenated before entering the flying tiger guards. Some people have the opportunity to learn culture after entering the guard team. Liu Xin has another requirement when choosing guards, that is, those who are grumpy will be eliminated.
The guards selected were young and not even married. Suddenly there is such a beautiful and beautiful girl. Naturally, she is more caring. How can she talk with the rough men in the mountain tribes
As the most elite unit under Liu Xin’s command, the Feihu Guardsman’s salary is three times that of other corps soldiers. In addition to half a year on duty and three months of intensive training, they also get three months of vacation. From Feihu After the guards have retired, the soldiers can be transferred to other corps to directly serve as middle and lower-level officers, or to serve as head catchers and squads in the county yamen. They all have a good future.
Liu Xin's care for the flying tiger guard soldiers is more than that. Any soldier who has served for two years can be assigned to a house in Xiangyang City. Although the house is not large, the location is not good, and after retiring, this The house is to be returned to the government, but it is not easy to have a place to live in the city of Xiangyang, where the land is so rich.
With such a good condition, let alone these mountain-yue women who have never seen the world, even the people in rich places like Jingxiang are willing to marry their daughters to Feihu guards.
The newly-married flying tiger guards all took their homes and enjoyed a three-month vacation with payment. For these Shanyue women, the prosperous life was something they didn’t even dare to think about in the past, and now they want them to give up the present happiness. To return to a poor and white deep ravine, to marry a violent tribe, not to have enough to eat or to wear warmth, and to suffer an old punch at every turn, who would be willing
Looking at the dejected elders of Shanyue, Liu Xin's expression sank and said: "Liu only provides one month's food to your village. If you refuse to agree to Liu's terms, within 20 days, you There will be a famine in the village of, in three or five days, my heroic soldiers will invade your village. Liu wants to come. Those of you who are hungry and thin should not be able to resist it for a few hours, huh, when the time comes, Liu killed all the men of your clan, and women gave me the soldiers and soldiers of the big man, and your mountains are still endless."
These words completely shattered the last gleam of hope left in the hearts of the elders. I am a knife and I am a fish. How can there be so many conditions to talk about? Negotiations can only be realized when the strength of the two sides are equal, and the elders understand in their hearts. , When it’s really going to happen, the women in their tribe will never resist, they will only marry these sturdy soldiers obediently.
After a brief silence, the elders reluctantly accepted the reality. The thousands of countermeasures discussed in three days and three nights were useless in the face of absolute strength. They had to bow their heads and said: "I have no objection to the conditions of the adults. "
Liu Xin laughed and said, "That's right, don't worry, spend two days in Xiangyang, and then Liu will send someone to send you back. Liu can guarantee that by this time next year, everyone will live. Good day,"
In fact, with Liu Xin’s strength, these mountain tribes can be wiped out. However, the south of the Yangtze River is sparsely populated. Many people who fled from Xuzhou last year heard that the war in Xuzhou has gradually subsided, and they have crossed the river north. Difficulties are not just empty words. It is difficult for three or five generations to take root in a foreign land. The mountains are different. They are originally living in Jiangnan. As long as they are completely integrated into the Han people in Jiangnan, Jiangnan can be solved. The big problem of underpopulation,
The elders have nothing to say. Now that this is the case, it’s better to have a good time in Xiangyang City. You can’t come to Xiangyang. When you go back, when someone asks them, they don’t know anything. What about eating, drinking, and having fun in Xiangyang City? All, as long as you have money, you can live a life like a king of God. Liu Xin is also quite generous to these elders. All expenses are borne by the government. It doesn’t matter. The elders played a lot in Xiangyang City. Lehua, I didn’t even want to return to Jiangnan, and was finally driven back by Liu Xin.
With the experience of arranging refugees in Xuzhou, the resettlement of these people from the Shanyue tribe has hardly encountered any obstacles. The land is ready-made. Some fields are left uncultivated after the refugees have reclaimed. They can be cultivated as long as they are cleaned up. The elders have allocated them. The fields are not only more fertile than the ordinary people, but also more fertile. They have become a new generation of squires. In addition, they advertise what they have seen and heard in the city of Xiangyang among the tribes, portraying a bright future for the people. Some of the Shanyue people who were still interested in confronting the big Han also gradually shaken their hearts.
To tell the truth, most of the ordinary Shanyue people have no opinion at all, and they have absolute trust in the elders, so they moved out of the mountain. In less than a month, the Shanyue crisis in the south of the Yangtze River was completely resolved.
Liu Xin received the letter from Jiang Nan, nodded in satisfaction, and said to Jushou and Tian Feng who were sitting opposite: "Liu wants to take this opportunity to take Jiaozhou. I don't know what the two gentlemen think."
Tian Feng said, "The weather is getting colder and the miasma in the south is fading away. It is appropriate to use troops. His subordinates agree to take Jiaozhou.
Jushou also nodded and said: "The subordinates thought that if you want to take Jiaozhou, you should be the first to salute and then the soldiers. The lord can send envoys to the counties of Jiaozhou and say that the prefects of the counties will come and send heavy troops to gather at the border of Jiaozhou. Please see, the lord."
Speaking of this, Jushou pointed to the map of the Great Han's territory behind Liu Xin and said: "If the prefects of the prefectures are unwilling to come, the lord can divide his forces into four directions and leave Yizhou all the way to get Jiaozhi, Jiuzhen, and Japan. The three southern counties, all the way out of Lingling, taking Yulin and Hepu counties, all the way out of Guiyang, taking Cangwu County, all the way out of Kuaiji, taking Nanhai County, four roads go together, Jiaozhou Xunri Keping,"
