Three Kingdoms: I, Ma Su, Only Seek Death

"Sit and wait for them to gather?"

Meng Guo was stunned, not understanding Ma Su's plan.

"General, although we have many soldiers, the Qiang and Hu people are not weak in combat power. What's more, Wu Wudang's flying army is basically all infantry. It is still difficult to fight against the Qiang and Hu people."

"You are afraid of a group of Qiang and Hu people despite being a powerful flying army?" Ma Di turned to look at Meng Guo and asked with a half-smile.

"Or are all the best men and women trapped in Didao County, and less than half of the remaining troops are the Xianling Qiang?"

These words sounded to the general's ears just as a man heard the words "Can you do it, little dog?"

Not only was it a real injury, but it was also a high critical hit.

"How can I be afraid! How can my upright General An be afraid of a group of Qiang people?" Meng Guo blushed and argued with his neck twisted.

"It's just Qiang and Hu. I will definitely make them defeated without any need for generals to take action!"

"Just don't be afraid, but don't try to steal my job as the coach."

Ma Su waved his hands repeatedly, fearing that this guy would be stimulated and charge faster than him.

The risk factor of killing the enemy and being trapped in the battle is so high, how could Ma Su give it to others.

"Of course, I am particular about letting them gather in one place. Everything must be adapted to local conditions."

Ma Di quietly pointed to the Dong Qiang soldiers in the army who were following the expedition, and explained calmly.

"Longxi is no better than Nanzhong. What people here look down upon most are cowards. If we follow your plan, even if we defeat the Qiang people, it will be difficult to convince them."

"In the future, we are still counting on these young and old men to fight with the army. If they look down on you, how can you make them come back?"

"So to deal with the Qiang in Longxi, we must use a frontal defeat method and defeat them in an upright manner. Only in this way can we subdue these rebellious Qiang soldiers and make them willing to be used by the Han."

Ma Su's explanation was very detailed, and even Meng Guo could understand it clearly. However, Ma Di's words made the Nanzhong general feel a little uncomfortable.

What do you mean this place is not better than Nanzhong? It's like we at Nanzhong like to be cowards!

We Nanzhong people are also very brave, okay!

"So, even though there may be some losses in a head-on fight, it is necessary for the overall situation." Ma Su waved his hand and made the final decision.

"Send someone to deliver a message to the Xianling Qiang tribes, telling them that I, Ma Di, are leading the Han army to conquer. Either surrender immediately, or each of you can come out with the remaining men of your family and have an upright fight with me."

Soon, dozens of messengers, under Ma Su's order, followed the road straight to the Xianling Qiang tribes.

At this time, the Xianling Qiang tribes were already in turmoil, and people at the top and bottom were in panic.

Dan Muji, the leader of the Xianling Qiang tribe, has completely lost contact with him since he took his troops to Didao County. This half month has passed, and not only has there been no news, but there are more and more Han troops in Longxi.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see what the specific outcome will be.

The total population of the Xianling Qiang people is about 40,000, and the total number of able-bodied men is less than 10,000. Danmuji took away four thousand strong men in one breath, which was equivalent to half of all the men.

It turned out to be good now. They didn't catch anything and the brothers were trapped in it. They even had to face revenge from the Han people.

The Han people have a very strong desire for revenge, and the revenge cycle is very long. Any behavior by foreigners that touches the bottom line may trigger revenge for hundreds of years by the entire Han people.

When Guo Huai was in office, he beat them from top to bottom. Now that the newly arrived Han people have beaten Guo Huai away, they can't even imagine how powerful their revenge will be.

At this time, the elders and chiefs of the various tribes of the Xianling Qiang tribe were already panicking and were discussing what to do.

Now why don't you send people to find the Han people and express your surrender and apology in exchange for them not coming to retaliate? Or lead the tribe to continue running westward and hide in Di where the Han people cannot catch up.

But no matter which plan there are, some people are in favor of it and some are against it, and the major tribes can't argue.

At this time, messengers sent by Ma Su came to various Qiang tribes.

"Is this a letter sent by the Han people to deliver it?" The elders of the tribe left behind frowned and asked as they looked at the few strong men from the tribe who were responsible for delivering the letter.

"That's right, the Han Dynasty envoy said that we should each pull out the people and prepare to fight us." The strong man who had escaped nodded hurriedly.

"What else did the Han general say? Do you have anything else to say?" the elder continued to ask.

"They also said a lot of words, but we couldn't understand them." Several Qiang people answered honestly.

"All we know is that we were told to get this letter back."

"You guys can't even understand what the Han people say." The elder was so angry that he opened the bamboo slips and read the old-fashioned lessons.

After just one glance, the elder got stuck because he found that he couldn't understand either.

Who wrote this shit? Why are it so ugly?

Of course, this cannot be blamed on Ma Su. The two generals who accompanied him on the expedition were a Nanzhong barbarian general and a leader of the Eastern Qiang. Both of them learned to write, but neither of them could write well.

After a little comparison, Ma Su is the best writer, and it can only be written by Ma Su.

If it had been written by those two people, the elder would probably not be able to understand the content of the letter.

After reading it several times with a frown, the elder finally managed to figure out what it meant.

"This means that General Han wants to fight us head-on. If we win, he will retreat and give up Longxi. If we lose, he will surrender?"

The elder narrowed his eyes, a hint of complexity flashed in his eyes.

"This Han..."

"Elder, what should we do?" the people below asked cautiously.

"Go tell the leaders of other tribes and find a place to discuss it together." The elder sighed and shook his head.

"By the way, I'll ask the people below to prepare grain, gold and silver. We'll need them soon."

"Elder, what does this letter mean?" At this time, a young junior came over cautiously, glanced at the bamboo slips, and then shrank back.

It's another new Han Chinese font, which I can't understand at all.

"It's a letter written by the Han people to us, asking us to gather all the elites from the major tribes and fight them head-on." The elder put away the bamboo slips and said calmly.

"What? So arrogant!" The young Qiang man was shocked, and immediately turned around and left angrily.

"I'm going to summon the warriors from the tribe. We must fight them to the death!"

"Shut up!" Seeing how stupid the person below was, the elder was so angry that he wished he could pry his head open with a stick to see how much water had entered.

"Do you really think that the purpose of the Han people is to fight us? Can we, the Xianling clan, be able to defeat them in our current situation?"

The young Qiang people were a little unconvinced, but thinking about the current situation of the tribe, they had to admit it.

If they really fight the Han people, they will basically have nothing but annihilation.

"Then what should we do? How about running away!" The Qiang youth was a little nervous and asked quickly.

"Run? The Han people can even send letters to our tribe. Do you think they can't catch up with us?" The elder was almost breathless and could only wave his hands and said.

"This is the face the Han people gave us, telling us to surrender honestly!"
