Three Kingdoms: I, Ma Su, Only Seek Death

Chapter 288 Talents from the field arrive

Ma Su led his troops into the Western Capital and immediately sent people to call out all the Xiqiang chiefs and elders who were detained here. Ma Su, on the other hand, set up a banquet and invited the leaders of the Xiqiang group to have a meal.

After the Xiqiang leaders were captured, Ma Di led his troops north to help Zhuge Liang beat Sima Yi. After Zhang Yi took charge of detaining this group of prisoners, he treated them favorably according to Shu Han practice.

Because of this, when Ma Su invited them over, he found that the heads of the Xiqiang group were all red-faced and full of energy.

After taking their seats, a group of Xiqiang leaders showed no fear at all. Not only were they not afraid, there were even a few idiots who complained that the banquet hosted by Ma Su was too shabby and was not the qualified treatment that a big man would give to his vassals.

"Fuck, these prisoners won't live a better life than me, right?" Ma Su gritted his teeth and glanced at the group of tribal leaders who seemed to be confused about the situation, with a trace of murderous intent flashing in his eyes.

Seeing this, Shu Ji put his hand on the knife, ready to kill the chicken as a warning to the monkey.

"Everyone is having a good time in Xidu these days." Ma Di narrowed his eyes, and his tone could not tell whether he was angry or unhappy.

"Not bad. The Emperor of Han is still kind and kind. We are very grateful." Several tribe elders said with smiles.

"Yes, is the emperor okay? We still dare not forget each other!"

"I was a minister of the Han Dynasty in the past, but I am no longer a minister of the Han Dynasty now!"

"Okay, okay, if you are a Han vassal, you are indeed qualified." Ma Su clapped his hands and said with some inexplicable meaning.

"However, as a Hanchen, this seems to be unqualified."

Ma Su's words were relatively clear, but these Xiqiang leaders didn't seem to understand what Ma Su meant. A group of fools still only praised the emperor's kindness, saying that they would surrender to the big man after returning and would never be enemies with the big man for the rest of their lives.

However, after some testing, Ma Su basically saw that these people were pretending to be confused. They all understood what Ma Su meant, but they didn't want to face it at all.

In this case, Ma Su has nothing to say. He waved directly to Shu Ji, who immediately understood. When the banquet was occupied, he chopped down several of the most jumping elders with two swords.

Suddenly blood splattered on the banquet place, and a group of chiefs and elders were shocked. The friendly atmosphere of host and guest disappeared instantly, and a group of Xiqiang leaders looked at Ma Su in surprise.

"I'm afraid you don't understand the situation clearly? Am I discussing this with you?" Ma Su leaned back and put his feet directly on the table, looking at the group of people who had not seen the coffin in an extremely rude and contemptuous manner. The man from the eagle snorted coldly.

"You are not the vassals of the Han Dynasty now, and you will never be the vassals of the Han Dynasty! From now on, the Xiqiang tribes have no meaning of existence. Your tribesmen will all be the vassals of the Han Dynasty from now on!"

"I called you here today to inform you that we can send people to ask your people to come out and become Han citizens. As for you, from now on you will be under the management of the Han people and just be Han people with a slightly higher status."

This time Ma Su didn't save any face for them, and spoke very nakedly.

This time, the Xiqiang leaders didn't know what to do.

From the moment Ma Su called them here, these old foxes immediately understood what Ma Su was thinking. After all, Shenwei General Manlongyou has been arresting people to farm for so many years, and these Qiang leaders are all clear.

But let them give up their tribe and their power. This is basically impossible. So even though they know everything, they just don't want to face it.

Moreover, they were still a little lucky, thinking that as a general of the Han Dynasty, Ma Su should save some face in front of his former younger brothers.

But obviously, Ma Su didn't have this idea. He never cared about face.

"Ma Shijun! We, the Western Qiang people, have lived in Xiping for generations and have long been used to it. Now..." Some leaders wanted to fight for it. No matter how hard and tiring the mountains and forests are, they can still command people, right?

If they are all moved out, then all the tribesmen in my group will become Han people.

"Ha..." Ma Su rolled his eyes and signaled Shu Ji with his eyes.

Shu Ji immediately understood and killed the leader who raised objections without saying a word to the guards.

"I'm just informing you and giving you a way to survive. I could kill you all and relocate one by one, using the best of your tribe as a guide."

"So this is not a negotiation, this is an announcement!"

Ma Di's cold and murderous words fell, and the whole place fell into deathly silence. A group of tribal chiefs and elders huddled up, unwilling to raise their heads.

They are different from the Dong Qiang in that they are not highly sinicized and do not have that much admiration for the Han people. Moreover, most of them are nomads. If they want to exterminate their tribes and relocate their people all at once, these people will definitely not agree.

Ma Su was not in a hurry about this, he just needed to give them a blow and then slowly increase the pressure.

"Please escort them all to me. They are not guests now, they are prisoners. No need to treat them favorably." Ma Di snorted, waved his hand and ordered.

"By the way, the best members of your tribe are all being imprisoned now. Otherwise, they will be sent to farm in Jincheng. How long the old and weak people can live after losing their strength depends on your attitude."

This sentence caused the expressions of the tribal chiefs to change suddenly, and they all glared at Ma Su, the anger in their eyes difficult to conceal.

They now want to kill Ma Su, this bastard who wants to destroy their tribe!

But Ma Su was not afraid at all. Instead, he suddenly laughed and directly ordered Shu Ji to throw a lot of weapons on the ground. He stood up and looked at the Qiang leader with a smile.

"If you are not convinced, you can stab me with a sword. If anyone can kill me, I will let you go back!"

"But, do you dare?"

Looking at the sword on Ma Su's waist, thinking of this famous man, the group of people were silent for a long time, and no one dared to make a move. Until the end, everyone silently followed the Han soldiers and left.

That day, several elders relented and expressed their willingness to cooperate. Over the next few days, the tribal leaders all accepted their fate and expressed their willingness to surrender to the big man.

With the cooperation of these tribal leaders, the entire Xiqiang tribes scattered in the mountains began to migrate outwards.

The first batch of people in Jincheng's fields were just gathered together.

While Ma Su was recruiting the Xiqiang population, Li Mu also welcomed the manpower allocated by the central government to support the farming in Jincheng.

The leader among them was a ruddy-faced and excited general.

"Master Li Fu, I am Zhang Yi, and I have been ordered to come with a group of military generals to support the general who conquers the north."

Li Mu knew about Ma Su's kindness to Zhang Yi and knew that he was also a great talent that Ma Su admired. So he smiled and nodded, saluted and greeted Zhang Ni, and the two of them were considered acquainted.

However, after Zhang Yi had an exchange with Li Mu, he immediately laughed and pulled a young man over to introduce him to Li Mu.

"I heard that the envoy was stationed here, so he went to Guanghan County and brought this great talent with him."

"This person came from Runan when the former general who conquered the north defeated the Wei army in Nanyang. At that time, he was placed in Guanghan County for testing. I have seen him before. He is a great talent!"

"Oh? Are you from Runan?"

Today's third update, let me see if anyone knows who this great talent is.
