The Three Kingdoms: The strategist will stop, and Rome will be unified

Chapter 262 Preparing to Surrender the Qiang People
Zhao Yun only chased and killed Ma Teng and the others for nearly ten miles before giving up.

Along the way, Ma Teng dared not fight back, and Ma Teng's Xiliang army suffered close to 1 damage in this battle.

Zhao Yun smiled slightly as he watched the Xiliang army leave in a panic.

In fact, there is no so-called army at all in the rear, only these 10 people. It is because they guessed that Ma Teng would not dare to fight, so the lord asked them to intercept again.

Zhang Liao on the side also laughed, just as the Lord expected.

The Xiliang army was defeated and fled to Sizhou like a bereaved dog.

"Get ready to return to Chang'an."

Zhang Liao glanced at Zhao Yun beside him.

The latter nodded, still smiling.

In this battle, nearly [-] enemies have been killed without any damage to the troops at all. I think it can be counted as a big victory.

Zhao Yun and others returned to Qian County again, and escorted tens of thousands of prisoners to Chang'an to return to their orders.

In Chang'an, Zhao Feng was tapping the table regularly with his left hand and holding a scroll in his right hand.

Suddenly, without any signs, Zhao Feng said lightly: "What time is it?"

The guard in front of the door was startled, and hurried forward and said: "Report to the lord, now is the end."

Hearing this, Zhao Feng smiled, put the scroll in his hand aside, then stood up, stretched his waist and said: "It's already late, it seems that Zilong and the others are coming back."

Then he looked at the guard and said, "Help me inform Kong Ming and the others that they are going to meet Zilong with me."

After walking two steps, he paused and said, "By the way, General Qu Yi, let me inform you as well."

After explaining, Zhao Feng left.

The guard on the side nodded, almost blindly obeying Zhao Feng's words.

The lord has never missed a shot so far.

A while later, when Zhao Feng brought Guo Jia and others to the vestibule of the prefecture, it happened that Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao returned together.

"See your lord."

The two looked happy, and it was obvious that they had won a big victory.

Zhao Feng also smiled and waved his hands and said, "You don't need to be too polite, how about the battle?"

At this time, the surrounding maids had already handed over the tea.

Zhao Yun clasped his fists and said with a smile: "My lord, the Qiang trip has gone very smoothly. Tens of thousands of Qiang captives have been brought here."

"During the first battle in Qianxian County, it was just as my lord expected. The Xiliang army didn't dare to fight at all. We chased and killed more than [-] enemies for ten miles."

Hearing this, Zhao Feng was very satisfied. For him, as long as there are no mistakes, it is already very good.

Then he said with a smile: "Zilong, you two are tired from the journey, go down and rest first."

Both of them showed a smile.

"promise!"

Zhao Feng looked at Qu Yi and said, "You have dealt with the Qiang people in the early years, and I heard that you are old acquaintances with the enemy general Ehe?"

Qu Yi dealt with the Qiang people in his early years, and all the dead soldiers in his hands learned Qiang fighting skills and Qiang people's warfare from the Qiang people.

It is precisely because of this that the first dead soldiers under him restrained the cavalry so much.

Qu Yi standing beside him stood up and bowed and said, "My lord, it is indeed so. Naohe and I are old acquaintances who fought each other, and the first dead soldiers under him also benefited from the Qiang people."

He looked at Zhao Feng above, and he didn't dare to hide anything at all. Working under the sponsor, he had completely got rid of the problem of taking credit for himself.

There are many generals under Zhao Feng who are stronger than him, so what can he, Qu Yi, be?What do you take credit for?
Moreover, Zhao Feng even equipped the dead warrior Xiandeng with the Zhuge Liannu. How could he not be grateful to Dade now?

Zhao Feng looked at Qu Yi and said with a smile: "As you can see, I did not massacre the Qiang people. I did not kill nearly ten thousand women and children. Now I will give you a chance."

"All these tens of thousands of Qiang people will be handed over to you, and you will be given a chance to return favors. These captives will live or die depending on your words."

As soon as these words came out, Qu Yi was shocked in place, he couldn't believe it, he never thought that these Qiang people would be handed over to him.

This is a captive of tens of thousands of people, how could he, Qu Yi and He De, be able to receive such a great favor?
And if he saved these Qiang people, not only his Qu Yi's name, but even Zhao Feng's name would be given the name of benevolence and righteousness.

Even though they killed all the [-] Qiang warriors, the foreign races were already deadly enemies, and if they didn't kill them, it would be considered a way of letting them go.

Qu Yi knelt down on one knee and said solemnly: "The last general will definitely recover the Qiang people for the lord!"

Zhao Feng was already like this, so he didn't need to mention anything at all, Qu Yi should know what to do.

Then he smiled slightly, waved his hands and said: "If this can be done, I will prepare a county for them."

If it is possible to regain the Qiang people, then it will be possible to use the Qiang people to train more first-time dead soldiers.

And teach Qiang fighting skills to all soldiers, so that even when facing cavalry, infantry will have a certain ability to resist.

Moreover, if the leader of the Qiang tribe can surrender, the Qiang people in Xiliang's hands will turn against each other.

This move won the hearts of the people and was beneficial to the situation of the war. At the same time, it could also improve the loyalty of the generals under him. It could be said to serve multiple purposes.

Of course Qu Yi also understood this, bowed respectfully, and said with a smile, "Thank you, my lord!"

The eyes of Zhuge Liang and others on the side brightened even more, and they looked at Zhao Feng with admiration.

Looking at Qu Yi who turned to leave, they couldn't help but say, "My lord's move can be said to be both fame and fortune. It's really too high."

Zhao Feng waved his hand, looked at Zhuge Liang and the others with a faint smile, and said, "Kong Ming, don't flatter me here, can Sun Ce's persuasion go well?"

Hearing this, Zhuge Liang smiled and said: "Everything is going well, now Gan Ning is following Zhou Gongjin."

Zhao Feng nodded, not surprised by this.

Although Gan Ning was bloodthirsty and had no military discipline, he respected the scholars extremely.

What's more, Zhou Yu, as the former governor of Jiangdong, and Gan Ning are old acquaintances, and with Zhou Yu's ability, he can naturally persuade him to surrender.

"Congratulations, my lord, for adding another fierce general!"

Zhao Feng showed a hint of a smile, this time the Eastern Wu company sent all the soldiers and generals, it was a blood loss.

"The next step is to wait for Qu Yi to recruit the Qiang people, then we can launch a general offensive."

Zhuge Liang and others on the side all nodded.

In the big prison outside Chang'an at this moment, it is the largest prison cell in Chang'an at this moment, holding tens of thousands of people.

At this time, under the leadership of a soldier, Qu Yi came here.

He saw that all the people imprisoned around him were Qiang women and children, and the tens of thousands of people in this prison were all Qiang people.

Every cell seemed very crowded, and each of the captives squatted in a corner, cowering aside, with expressions of undecided shock in their eyes.

They never know what they will face next.

However, it is worth mentioning that most of these Qiang people have not changed much, and there is no injury on their bodies.

Obviously, under Zhao Feng's instructions, Cao Jun did not abuse these women and children.

These captives did not receive any whipping, so although these women and children looked shocked, there was no look of despair in their eyes.
