Chastity Layman 2

Chapter 848
Although Fusan is a barbarian king from Zuoxi, after all, he has more contact with the Central Plains and has seen more of the outside world than Queen Juding of Nanzhong.

He knows Datang's strength better than Nong Sanniang.

In other words, even though Fusan was known as the barbarian king before, he was actually not considered very strong in Lingnan, and could only be regarded as a marginal figure.Close the door, on the one-third of an acre of land in Zuoxi, he is considered to be the most powerful Dongzhu Barbarian King.But along the river, there are too many powerful heroes in Yongzhou, Qinzhou, Gaozhou, Guangzhou, and Guizhou.

Not to mention the great Tang Dynasty in Central Plains today, even more than ten years ago, when the Sui Dynasty was in chaos and Lingnan was in chaos, didn't there also arise eight powerful separatist forces?
And among those eight heroes, there is no one like Zuoxi Barbarian King.

Among the eight heroes in Lingnan, the most powerful barbarian kings are Liao Wang Tan Dian and Li Wang Xian Baoche. The rest are not important officials in Lingnan of the Sui Dynasty, such as Qiu He, the governor of Jiaozhou, Li Xizhi, the prefect of Guizhou, etc., or Feng An , Ning Changzhen and other local Han tycoons in the south of the Five Ridges.

Fu San was just a little barbarian attached to Tan Dian back then, and he couldn't get into the inner circle of Lingnan.However, in the troubled times at the end of the Sui Dynasty, none of the eight heroes in Lingnan dared to become king on their own. They either surrendered to Lin Shihong, the hero of the Central Plains, or surrendered to Xiao Xian, or Shen Faxing, but in the end they all surrendered to Tang Li. The family has surrendered.

Fu San followed Tan Dian and knelt down many emperors. After kneeling for a long time, he gradually got used to kneeling.

"The Cuan family in Yunnan, Feng Xian, Chen Ningyang in Lingnan, etc., which one did not surrender to the Tang Dynasty? Dangxiang Qiang in the northwest, Tuyuhun, and even the Turks in northern Xinjiang. Those all knelt down to the Tang Dynasty. Why? Do we have to stand?"

"If you don't have enough strength, you have to kneel. If you kneel, you may not be a slave. There are Turks, Tuyuhun, Ashina's family, and Murong's family. They are still in front of Khan Yehu, and even Fengjun. The general Wang appointed as the governor? No matter how close you are, Feng An, Ning Xuan, Chen Longshu, etc. in Lingnan, these people also kneel to the Tang Dynasty, and they kneel very sincerely. Are they going to end badly?"

"Isn't it? Their lives are still relatively moist. Although they are certainly not as comfortable as the local emperors who ruled the roost in the past, they are not far behind. As long as their attitudes are sincere, the court will always leave room for them. This time Qin Lang came to Lingnan Xuanfu, and the drastic reforms were indeed very ruthless, but in the end, each family still left room for them and guaranteed enough benefits."

"Actually, this time your Juding invaded, Qin Lang wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to make up Qimin for us Zuoxixi, so it's not a big deal..."

The more he talked, the more he couldn't stop talking.

When a road does not work, you will always miss the missed road.

Looking at the green field, Nong Sanniang replied lightly, "Maybe this is your idea, but it doesn't represent us. Everyone has his own ambitions. If you and the Zuoxi masters really don't plan to follow me If I keep going, I won't force it, although the twisted melon quenches my thirst, it's not sweet after all."

"If you think it over and want to go back to be a dog for the Tang people, then you can kneel down and beg the Tang people for forgiveness after we cross the river, and I won't stop you. It's just that we have fought side by side after all, which can be regarded as some friendship. And I want to remind you, the cunning rabbit dies like a hunting dog, so don't try too hard to be a dog. Don't think about beheading my head to claim credit. If our town is destroyed, then the next one to be destroyed will definitely be you guys The capricious brook is savage."

Fusan's face turned blue and red after being told.

"Why are you so stubborn? It's better to surrender together. In fact, the Tang people don't have the ability to truly control this barbaric land. What they want is our attitude. We kneel down and offer a watch. It seems that paying taxes and serving in the military service is actually not too much of a burden. The tax reforms of the Tang people in the past few years have reduced their taxes a lot, especially those of us who are newcomers to barbarians. Basically, they were tax-free for the first three years. , There will also be reductions and exemptions for the next three years, and even after they belong to the Tang people, they will build roads, open post stations, commercial cities, etc. here, which will bring a lot of benefits..."

Nong Sanniang interrupted him, "I won't stop you if you want to be a dog, but even if we are barbarians in the mountains who are looked down upon by the Tang people, we don't want to be dogs."

"Even if Juding can't be saved, I can still take my people to the Heman tribe, or even to the gold tooth tribe, white clothes tribe, embroidered face, etc. I can take my tribe all the way south, and there will always be a place to stand."

A half-way couple broke up after all.

What Nong Sanniang said is right, people have their own aspirations and pursuits.

Nong Tianfu was thinking about reintegrating the various tribes of Juding and reviving the country of Juding.Nong Sanniang kept her husband's will firmly in mind and wanted to fulfill his dream wholeheartedly. Whether it was Queen Juding or Queen Nanban, it was just her efforts to fulfill her husband's will. She had always lived for her husband.

Although Fu San is the king of the Zuoxi Man, tall and burly, she never really took a fancy to him, it was just to join forces with the Zuoxi Man to revolt.

It's just a half-way couple in name.

Now that the partnership is about to break up, there is nothing to be reluctant about.

After the two returned, they each called the barbarian kings of their headquarters to discuss matters.

On the same day, the two groups of people began to separate and set up camps.

Fusan took Zuoxi Man back ten miles eastward, and the two wells did not interfere with the river water.

Although some masters thought that since the partnership was broken up, it would be better to just wipe out Judingman and make a nomination certificate, but Fusan refused.

The superficial reason is that Judingman is stronger than them at this time, and if they really fight, they will not be able to fight.But the real reason is what Mrs. Nong San reminded him of.

The cunning rabbit dies, the hunting dog cooks.

The Han people also have a saying, which is called raising thieves to be self-respecting.

These Judingman are still there, so the first target of the Tang army is the Judingman, and temporarily ignore them, and even rely on them, but if the Judingman is destroyed, the next target should be them.

The breakup of the two families was relatively peaceful.

With nearly half of the people crossing the river, Juding crossed the river much faster.

A lot of new pontoon bridges were built one after another, and the various tribes of Jumachi stepped up to cross the river in a panic. It took five days to finally cross the river with 5 horses.

After crossing the river, Mrs. Nong San ordered all the pontoon bridges on the river to be dismantled and transported downstream for use when crossing the river again.

Fusan and other Zuoxi Mandong masters saw Nong Sanniang off from a distance.

Many barbarians looked confused.

After tossing and tossing, tossing and tossing for so long, and finally returning to such a position, what are you doing for so long? "

Fusan let out a long sigh.

Da Ma went directly to Gaoping Fort, and shot a letter of request to the castle.

Baozhong sent people out of the city to pick up the letter and go back, but there was no reply.

Fort Gaoping was still silent, but fierce and ferocious.

And twenty miles away, Fu San led fifty thousand Zuoxi barbarians with their families and their families, and camped along the mountains and rivers, and they didn't dare to move.

Many people proposed to return to their hometown, but Fusan refused.

Calculating the time, the soldiers and horses led by Qin Lang should be arriving soon. At this time, everyone ran back in a mess. Wouldn't it be wrong to see Tang Jun being cut down?

It's better to stay here for the time being. There are 5 people camping here immediately, which can be regarded as having some weight.

······
Turning from Xiyuanzhou to march southwest, everything we passed along the way was very smooth.Along the Xidong villages along the way, the young and strong Dong Ding either ran away with the Dongzhuman King and Judingman, or was beaten for opposing Judingman, or fled into the mountains.

Most of the villages were left with only a group of old and weak women and children, and some villages were even empty.

After more than half a year of chaotic fighting, the barbarians have been complaining for a long time, and even many barbarians are bewildered. They don't know which side they are at all. Ding Man beat, completely stupefied.

The mountainous area was already closed and the information was blocked, so it became more and more chaotic.

When Qin Lang sent Qingqi all the way to appease the barbarians in Xidong, the barbarians were dubious, but after seeing many Qingqi who followed the Tang army as guides or testified by themselves, more barbarians chose to believe.

If you don’t believe me, there’s nothing you can do about it. You have to live.

Seeing that the weather is getting colder, I can't stay in the deep mountains and old forests all the time.

Qin Lang had a good attitude towards the attached barbarians.

He didn't do any liquidation afterward, and he always waved his hand and kindly expressed that he didn't blame the past.On the other hand, some food, cloth and medicine were even given to the poor and hungry Dongzhai barbarians affected by the war.

Then, by the way, let everyone recommend new Baojia chiefs, village chiefs Zhaizhu Lizheng, etc., and build temporary post roads, and build warehouses, military forts, and garrisons along the way.

Organize the Baojia defense team and so on.

When leaving, leave some food and cloth, and take some young Dongzhai children away, saying that they are going out to practice.

After Qin Lang's army passed, the Manzhais behind them changed their flags one after another. The Dong Dings entered the household registration of Datang, the fields were officially registered, and there were temporarily appointed officials at all levels, etc.

On the surface, these places have officially become counties and prefectures controlled by Datang, and the common people have become registered households.

Although many generals thought it was useless to do so, and those people would definitely not recognize it when they turned around, Qin Lang always said with a smile that it was good.

In war, you have to have a clear goal.

You can't make too many enemies at the same time, and you can't go to war everywhere. Now the first target is Juding, and then the Fusan Zuoximan who defected. As long as the remaining people are willing to surrender, even if it is a verbal surrender, they can temporarily allow it. Down.

Appropriate appeasement, at least in exchange for temporary stability in the rear, is still very important.

Stopping around like this, Qin Lang was not in a hurry to catch up.

As a result, on the way halfway, the messengers of Gaopingbao and Fusan arrived almost at the same time.

"The Judingman passed by Gaoping Fort, and Fusan led Zuoximan's 5-strong Fortress, please surrender?"

This news made Qin Lang, who was eating, happy.

"What's the specific situation, tell me quickly!"
