Chapter 425 The wind blows the cattle and Qiang
"Chief Xuantuo, the White Horse Qiang has surrendered to my big man. I wonder what choice the Yellow Niu Qiang will make?"
Liu Jin was a little fed up with the ramble, so he directly made the point clear.
Liu Jin's words silenced the entire scene.
Xuan Tuo froze while eating meat. What did he hear? That old immortal Han Ji actually surrendered to the big man? How can it be?
"Ha, ha, the prince really loves to joke." Xuan Tuo put down the meat in his hand and replied with a dry smile.
"Not only the Baima Qiang, but also all the tribes in the north have surrendered to the Han, so our two families are now neighbors."
Liu Jin did not reply to Xuan Tuo's words, but instead talked about the current situation.
Xuantuo's eyes opened wider and wider, with a look of disbelief on his face. He had thought about the worst outcome, which was just to pay tribute to the big man and become a vassal. He had already thought of a way to deal with this.
Unexpectedly, people have such a big appetite and want everything, even the ancestral graves.
Also, is your Hanji brain in trouble? Can you give up all your ancestral property?
As for the truth of the matter, Xuan Tuo had no doubts. He knew it as soon as he inquired about it. There was no need for the burly prince to lie to him.
Xuan Tuo can't control other people, right? If the matter falls on him, it will be very difficult.
Xuan Tuo's face was gloomy and uncertain, he was a little upset and couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.
After a long time, Xuantuo waved his hand and let the irrelevant personnel go down, leaving only six beasts.
Seeing the calm expressions of Liu Jin and others, Xuan Tuo had a smile on his face.
"It turns out that I, Huang Niu Qiang, have actually become neighbors with the big man. Prince, don't worry, I understand the rules. From now on, I, Huang Niu Qiang, will pay tribute to the big man and become my vassal. Of course, the prince's generous gift will not be missing, absolutely not. Let the prince travel in vain."
Liu Jin glanced at Xuantuo Gao. A strong man cut off his wrist and abandoned his chariot to protect his commander. He was so decisive and courageous.
"Chief Xuantuo, don't you really understand what I say? What I want is surrender. All the land and population should be merged into the Han Dynasty, not pay tribute and become a vassal."
Liu Jin once again made the topic clear and handed the choice to Xuan Tuo.
The smile on Xuan Tuo's face disappeared, he looked straight at Liu Jin and asked:
"Prince of the Han Dynasty, have I, Huang Niu Qiang, ever offended the Han Dynasty?"
"No." Liu Jin shook his head. The two sides were so far apart and there was a white horse Qiang in the middle. How could there be any grudges?
"Then why does the big man covet me, Huang Niuqiang? This is not the style of a great country."
Xuantuo didn't understand very much. Are you sick? A mad dog bites people?
Liu Jin sighed. This kind of punishment for innocent people is indeed easy to criticize, but the expansion of the Han Dynasty will not stop, and the integration of nationalities is also an inevitable trend.
Therefore, it is necessary to find a defensible excuse. Even if the excuse is pure nonsense, it still makes the teacher famous.
"Chief Xuantuo should know that the tribes around Dahan have invaded Dahan's territory. In the name of survival, they burned, killed and looted in Dahan wantonly. They committed all kinds of evil and refused to change despite repeated admonitions. Chief Xuantuo should understand what I mean."
Liu Jin gave a random reason. To put it bluntly, I was afraid that you would mess with me in the future, so it was better to nip the hidden danger in the cradle.
Xuantuo almost couldn't catch his breath. Damn it, listen, is this human language?
In order to prevent Yellow Niu Qiang from offending the Han Dynasty in the future, why don't you just strike first?
What a bullshit reason.
What is unnecessary, this is it.
But Xuantuo couldn't refute it, because it was a fact, and in the final analysis, it was all about survival.
If we didn't have to worry about food and clothing, who would be crazy enough to start a war?
Not to mention other tribes, there have been countless fights between the Yellow Niu Qiang and the Baima Qiang just because of pasture issues.
Does it mean that if Baima Qiang merges with Dahan, this problem will no longer exist?
How is it possible? This fight needs to be fought. We can't just sit back and wait for death just because the big man is a fierce tiger.
Therefore, it is only a matter of time before the two sides conflict.
Life and death are determined by destiny, wealth and honor are in the sky, if you win, the monkey king will die, if you lose, the monkey will die.
It's that simple.
"What the prince said is just his own imagination. If such an excuse spreads out, wouldn't the prince be afraid of being laughed at by the world?"
Xuantuo's teeth were almost broken, and I didn't do anything. How could you be like this?
Liu Jin raised his head and glanced at Xuan Tuo. What nonsense are you talking about? Are you assuming that you don't have a clear idea? Who said that you can only hit me first, but I can't hit you first.
If anyone dares to grin, I'll knock his teeth out.
"Chief Xuantuo, please think about it carefully. In three days, I hope Chief Xuantuo can give me a satisfactory answer."
After Liu Jin finished speaking, he led everyone away. He was too lazy to waste time with Xuantuo. The opportunity is given to you. Whether you want to fight or decide with yourself, if you want to assassinate, that's fine. There is no need to find any excuses.
After Liu Jin left, Xuan Tuo's face looked gloomy and scary.
"Father, should we..." Tuohu looked fierce and made a cutting motion on his neck, the meaning was self-evident.
"No!" Xuan Tuo refused without thinking. The Han prince died on his Yellow Niu Qiang territory. Was it because he didn't die fast enough?
"Father, who would have known that the prince of the Han Dynasty would come to me, Huang Niu Qiang? We can say that Baima Qiang framed me for this."
Tuo Lang smiled very cunningly. Anyway, no third party knew about it, so he could just make it up as he wanted.
"It's still inappropriate." Xuan Tuo shook his head and said in a deep voice:
"Have you ever thought about it, since the Han prince dares to bring this small number of troops to attack our Yellow Niu Qiang, he must have the confidence to escape unscathed. There is no need to fight to the death until the last moment."
"Then...are we surrendering?" Tuo Xiong touched his head and asked tentatively.
"Fart." Xuantuo stared angrily, hating that iron cannot make steel:
"How can we hand over our ancestral property to others? If we really want to surrender, then we don't even know how we died. Hanji, an old man, was so smart that he was confused for a while. How did he surrender?"
Hearing Xuan Tuo's words, the six beasts looked at each other in confusion. After all, they couldn't fight or surrender. They couldn't just do nothing.
"Then father, what should we do now?" Tuo Diao asked with a not-so-good look on his face.
Xuan Tuo's expression changed unpredictably, and he spoke viciously after a long time:
"Since he is unkind, don't blame me, the scalper, for being unjust."
"Mastiff, go west quickly and tell Tang Yan (mao twice) about what's going on here, and say that I, Huangniu Qiang, am willing to obey Tang Yan's orders in the future."
"Bao'er, you turn south and tell the chiefs such as Dazang Qiang, Longqiao Qiang, Boshen Qiang, etc. that the Han prince is now a guest in our Huangniu Qiang, and ask them if they want to eat this piece of fat meat."
