Three Kingdoms: I, Ma Su, Only Seek Death
Chapter 13: Repulsing the Qiang People
Ma Su was extremely happy when he saw a Qiang man with an angry face riding a war horse towards him.
At this moment, in Ma Su's eyes, he was an unparalleled hero, riding a tall horse to take him home.
So as soon as he thought about it, Ma Su took a step forward and watched the Qiang leader getting closer and closer as if he was dead.
However, in the end, the war horse stopped five steps away from Ma Su. The Qiang leader jumped off his horse and cursed at Ma Su.
"You Han people are not known as a country of etiquette. What kind of etiquette does it mean to insult us Qiang people so casually?"
He would definitely not dare to take action. As the leader of Dong Qiang, he still has some discernment. The Han man in front of him looked like a high-ranking official. If he killed the Han man and angered the Han man, the Dong Qiang people would probably not be able to survive when a large army surrounded him.
If you dare not take action, then you can only talk.
Seeing that the Qiang people had put away their knives, Ma Di suddenly felt disappointed.
Don't dare to do anything. You were pretending to be naughty just now, which made me happy in vain.
Waste of feelings!
"We Hans have nothing to say to you uncivilized barbarians. You have robbed our people all year round. How many of our civilians have you killed in Longyou over the years?"
Since Ma Su couldn't satisfy his wish, Ma Su didn't feel good about it. Seeing that the opponent looked like a leader, Ma Su was even more aggressive.
"Today, under the command of the Prime Minister, we, the Han, are attacking the puppet Wei, and now the entire Longyou has been recovered. We Qiang people should put down their weapons as soon as possible and submit to the Han honestly, so there is still a way to survive."
The Han Dynasty's attitude towards foreigners was consistent: surrender or death, there was no other choice. Since Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty defeated the Xiongnu, the Han army has continued to carry out military attacks on the surrounding small foreign tribes.
By the Eastern Han Dynasty, among the foreign ethnic groups with the most meritorious deeds, the Qiang people were among them.
Facing Ma Su's output, the Dongqiang leader's face turned livid with anger. He wanted to kill this foul-mouthed man with a knife immediately, but he didn't dare.
He wasn't very sure about the level of this group of Han people. This time he was just here to find out. As a result, the opponent's attitude was arrogant, and he started to deal with all the attacks, which was very similar to the attitude of the Han Dynasty envoys in the heyday of Han Dynasty.
Could it be that the Han people have long had the idea of wiping out our Dong Qiang people? Are these Han Chinese just here to fish and enforce the law?
Thinking of this, the leader of Dongqiang couldn't help but shudder, and immediately put away his fierce expression.
"Your Excellency, Ambassador of the Han Dynasty, I admit that I spoke a little too loudly just now. On behalf of Dong Qiang, I solemnly apologize to you!" the leader of Dong Qiang said, forcing himself to calmly bow his hands to Ma Su.
Ma Su: "???"
What the hell? I've been spraying you for so long, why did you suddenly get scared?
Shake m, right?
"A certain person named Shuji is the leader of the Eastern Qiang tribe." The Qiang leader continued, his attitude becoming very sincere.
"This robbery was a complete misunderstanding. I offended the Han envoy rashly. Please atone for your sins."
At this point, Ma Su couldn't continue talking and could only answer expressionlessly.
"Ma Su, who joined the Han army, was ordered to go to Longxi County to persuade the puppet Wei general to surrender."
"I've seen you immediately." Shu Ji cupped his hands and said,
"We, the thirteen tribes of the Eastern Qiang, have long heard that the Han army is coming, and we are looking forward to the king's return to Longyou day and night. This time is a complete misunderstanding. Not long after, I personally went to Longxi with gifts to see the Han Prime Minister to apologize."
"That's best." Ma Su said casually. He was not very interested in this kind of thing.
Ma Su's attitude further confirmed Shu Ji's guess. The Han army looks down on you at all, just like an ant.
If they were not honest, the Dong Qiang tribe would probably become Han generals because of their military exploits.
After thinking about this, Shu Ji broke out in cold sweat on his forehead and apologized to Ma Di repeatedly. It wasn't until Ma Su waved his hand to indicate that he could leave that Shu Ji ran away in despair.
What was originally a huge calamity was resolved just like that after Ma Di scolded him. When Ma Su walked back to the camp like nothing happened, Yao Hu and others looked at Ma Su as if they were ghosts.
"Joining the army...is this solved?" Yao Hu scratched his head and asked curiously.
"It's settled, they're just a bunch of cowards." Ma Di shrugged and said casually.
I can only endure it after being scolded for so long. I can only say that I am really cowardly.
"Hurry up and get ready to rest. We have to continue our journey tomorrow morning."
"No... Joining the army is really a god!" Yao Hu was curious about how Ma Di did it, but seeing the nonchalant look on joining the army, he could only hold back one sentence.
The matter of being faced with a formidable enemy can be solved by joining the army in just a few words, which is comparable to that of a god.
Not only Yao Hu thought so, everyone else accompanying him looked at Ma Su with respect.
The Qiang people retreated, and Ma Su and his party rested for one night and set off again.
At dusk the next day, Ma Su and his party arrived at Didao County, the seat of Longxi County.
Looking at the towering city of Didao County, Ma Su sighed that he came at the right time.
As frontier cities to defend against foreigners, they are generally relatively strong, and it is quite laborious for the Shu army to attack them. And if the Wei army insists on fighting to the death, the Shu army's battle losses will definitely not be low.
"I am Ma Su, a great man who joined the army. I have been ordered by the prime minister to explain the pros and cons to the governor of Longxi. Open the city gate quickly!" Ma Su shouted from the city.
However, before he finished speaking, a row of Wei soldiers stood up on top of the city, drawing their bows and aiming at Ma Di.
"Are you the Shu people's lobbyist again? If you are here to persuade them to surrender, please leave immediately." The leading general looked at Ma Su coldly and said.
"The prefect has an order that the Shu people should shoot you immediately if you have any lobbyists coming. But I don't want to kill you, so go back quickly."
"I came here on the orders of the Prime Minister. Is there any reason to retreat before seeing anyone?" Ma Di shook his head and said firmly.
"If you want to shoot an arrow, just come at me, Ma Su! If you don't dare, just open the city gate and let me in!"
Ma Su's attitude silenced Wei Jun Lieutenant, and he didn't know what to do for a while.
But at this moment, a gentle voice suddenly came from behind him.
"Put down your bows and arrows and let them in."
"Master Taishou!" Wei Jun's captain quickly turned around and saluted.
"No need to be polite, let him in. I would like to see what the Shu people have to say." You Chu shook his head and stroked his beard.
"If the same rhetoric remains, it will not be too late to execute him by then."
"Wei!" The school captain quickly led people to open the city gate and let Ma Su and his entourage into the city.
As soon as he entered Didao City, Ma Su realized something was wrong.
The population of the entire city is not small, even slightly larger than the population of Xi County. However, most of the people seemed to be hungry and had too much to eat.
There are porridge shacks on the street, and most people are waiting in line there.
"What's going on? Why do the people look like they've been hungry for a long time?" Ma Su frowned, feeling something was wrong, so he grabbed the Wei soldier who was leading the way and planned to ask.
