Chapter 222: Mountain Barbarians

() He really came to whatever he was afraid of, but the Shanyue people were dragged into it after all. Taking the report from Gao Jin, Song Qing frowned deeply.

Ethnic issues have always been a headache for those in power, but they have to pay attention to them.

There are many mountains in the middle of Sichuan, and there are countless Shanyue indigenous people living in the mountains. Even during the Song Dynasty, there was no complete census of the number of people, let alone effective governance.

If these Shanyue people were enemies of themselves, even if they sent one million troops, they would never be able to wipe them out, and they might even get trapped in them.

So you must be very careful when dealing with these people.

Through this incident, Song Qing also realized that it was impossible to get rid of Lu Junyi. Today he can persuade the people of Shanyue to massacre the town, but tomorrow he may not be able to mobilize these people to do anything!

Song Qing suddenly remembered that he had read a book there in his previous life that mentioned these Shanyue people. The book said that at first these Shanyue people were not barbaric, and they were very enthusiastic towards the Han people.

It is said that the imperial court sent an official, but the Shanyue people were too enthusiastic and made the official drunk. The government could not wait for the official to come back and thought he had been killed by the Shanyue people, so it sent troops to kill the remaining Shanyue people.

They fled into the mountains one after another and began to hate the Han people from then on.

Before Fangla entered Shuzhong, the imperial court had always treated these Shanyue people by using barbarians to control barbarians. The Han people did not interfere and gave these Shanyue people a high degree of autonomy.

According to the internal guard's information, Fang La had very close relationships with the chiefs of some large tribes, which had a lot to do with his ability to gain a foothold in Shu.

Although the report did not mention one thing, Song Qing knew that these Shanyue people who lived in seclusion in the mountains were not completely unified, and there were still many scattered forces among them.

But these Shanyue people all have a common characteristic, that is, they bully the weak and fear the strong. Therefore, it will not work to be too tough with them, and it will not work to be too soft and gentle.

Who should be sent to deal with the Shanyue people?

As he was thinking about it, Song Qing's eyes suddenly lit up, and he thought to himself, how could I forget him? Thinking of this, he immediately ordered someone to call Bai Sheng over.

The person Song Qing thought of was none other than Lu Shinang.

As one of Fang La's confidants, Lu Shinang must know the situation of the Yue people in the mountains of Sichuan. As long as he is familiar with these situations, Song Qing can make corresponding countermeasures.

Fang La is already a grasshopper after autumn, and he can't jump around for a few days. Anyone with a discerning eye can see it. And I believe that as long as Fang La can give, I can also give, or even give more than he can.

Soon, Bai Sheng entered Shuzhong again with Song Qing's order to meet Lu Shinang.

At this time, Gao Jin, who was waiting for news at the foot of Daba Mountain, had already entered the vast Daba Mountain under the leadership of two locals, Lu An and Pan Jun.

Gao Jin is different from others in that he is a direct descendant of the Song and Qing Dynasties. He has been with Song Qing since the earliest. However, he does not become arrogant because of this relationship. On the contrary, he must complete any task assigned to him with perfection.

Done, never leaving anyone behind.

This time, because the Shanyue people were involved, he knew that the matter was of great importance, so he reported it to Song Qing as soon as possible. After resting, he led everyone into the mountain.

Although Lu An and Pan Jun were locals, they rarely went into the mountains. Fortunately, they had contact with a Shanyue tribe in the mountains, so this time their target was that tribe.

When Gao Jin was in Liangshan, he felt that Liangshan was big enough, but once he entered the vast Daba Mountain, he realized what a real deep mountain and old forest meant.

At first they could still see the road, but later they could no longer see the so-called road clearly. There were dense thorns and thick fallen leaves everywhere in the mountains. If it hadn't been for two locals, Gao Jin and the others would have been lost long ago.

I really don’t understand how these Shanyue people live in such an environment?

Seeing that it was getting late, Lu An also told Gao Jin that there was the Shanyue tribe just over the next hill, so Gao Jin ordered to set up camp.

Gao Jin and the others were a team of more than 500 people, and they did not encounter any large beasts along the way. And these 500 people were all specially trained, so this difficulty was not a big deal to them.

The mountains at night are mysterious and beautiful, with some unknown small animals passing through, and the chirping of insects and birds seeming to be playing ancient music, which makes people yearn for it but also scare them away.

Gao Jin didn't feel sleepy at all. He lay on the rope net hung between two trees, concentrating on his next plan.

According to what Lu An and the others said, the tribe in front of them only had a few hundred households, and there were only 3,000 men, women, old and children, so it was considered a relatively large tribe. However, it was said that they had always lived in harmony with the Han people, and they often went down the mountain to use the weapons they had captured.

The prey exchanged some necessities of life with the Han people.

If this is the case, they should not be the ones who massacred the residents of the town. Moreover, the town also has a population of more than 2,000. If you want to massacre all these people, it will definitely not be possible with a small number of people. So even if it is not them, they should know something.

information.

I only have 500 people. No matter if I encounter that group of Shanyue people, I won't be able to fight head-on. I have to act according to the situation.

There were so many mosquitoes on the mountain that it was impossible to sleep peacefully. He was tossing and turning. Just when Gao Jin was getting a little sleepy, a scream suddenly pierced the night sky and came from a distance.

For the sake of safety, Gao Jin arranged two sentries, light and dark, around the camp, but the distance from which the sound was heard clearly did not come from one of his own.

Everyone was awakened by the screams, and they drew their swords and concentrated on alert.

What's strange is that after the screams, no more life came. The jungle was so deep that nothing seemed to have happened.

Gao Jin concentrated for a moment and couldn't help but sneered secretly, "You want to play this trick with me? You have really found the right person."

He signaled to his men, and saw the five hundred elite warriors in the inner guard quickly looking for a favorable terrain to hide. This kind of thing was simply too childish for them.

Gao Jin turned over and lay down in the rope net. He knew that in this forest with unfamiliar terrain, the best strategy was to remain unchanged in the face of ever-changing conditions.

After a while, the other party seemed to be losing their composure. There was a "rustling" sound of feet stepping on fallen leaves, and people gathered around them from all directions.

"Hey! There are a lot of people there?"

Gao Jin turned over, fell from the rope net to the ground, and then like a snake crawled into the hiding spot he had chosen earlier.

Almost at the same time Gao Jin hid, countless bamboo guns were thrown into the camp from all directions. Under the moonlight, the camp seemed to grow a bamboo pole instantly. Obviously if Gao Jin and his men were still sleeping, there would be no one.

Able to live.

Following these bamboo poles was a ghostly cry, and then countless figures emerged from the darkness. Under the moonlight, there were no one knows how many people there were.

If they charge during the day or on flat ground, these elite internal guards may really be defeated in numbers, but what if there are so many in the world?

Seeing that it was almost done, Gao Jin took out something like a whistle from his arms, put it to his mouth and blew it.

This is a whistle specially made by the internal guards. It has strong penetrating power, but does not make much sound, making it hard to guard against.

As the whistle sounded, figures even stranger than these people who could only scream appeared. These strange figures were seen shuttling between the invading enemies from time to time, but no one was standing where they passed.

Yeah, not even a scream.

What's even weirder is that the swords of these internal guards have no light, and they are harvesting life in the darkness, as if they are magic weapons from hell, and no one can see the slightest shadow.

After a while, the invading enemy finally realized something was wrong. What ordinary Han soldiers were there? They were clearly a group of devils even more vicious than them.

No one needed to give orders, they all turned around and ran away.

"Leave two alive"

Soon, a battle began unknowingly and ended miraculously.

Gao Jin didn't know how many hidden enemies there were in the dense forest, so he didn't light any torches, ordered his men to be on guard, and then took the two captured alive to a big tree.

The tree is thick and can hide its tracks very well. And through the moonlight, you can also see that they are two indigenous people in ragged clothes.

Gao Jin couldn't understand their language, so he ordered Lu An and Pan Jun to separate them for questioning.

The people in the mountains believe in ghosts and gods even more. Just now they came well prepared, but they almost didn't even see their shadows, and most of them were killed. The two indigenous people thought they encountered mountain monsters, and they kowtowed in fear.

In a short time, Lu An and Pan Jun learned from two almost frightened natives that someone had informed the natives in the mountains that the officers and soldiers were sending troops to exterminate them. Then they set up a trap to lure the officers and soldiers into taking the bait.

, but the officers and soldiers did not take the bait, but they all confessed here.

However, there was no question from their mouths about the massacre of the people in the small town. Judging from their looks, they were not lying. They probably really didn't know.

They were not the ones who massacred the people in the small town, but someone told them that officers and soldiers were entering the mountain. So who could be the person who told them the news? Could it be that someone has been secretly following them?

Gao Jin couldn't help but frowned and ordered to keep an eye on these two people until daybreak.

As the sun gradually rose, all the mysterious things became apparent. However, the place where the warriors originally camped had been replaced by corpses all over the place. However, none of the warriors in the inner guard died, and some only suffered minor injuries.

Just hurt.

At this moment, one of the two captives, a young man, suddenly shouted "Wow, wow".

Gao Jin ordered Lu An to go over and ask what was going on. Although it was dawn, his heart became heavier and heavier because he knew that the skills of his warriors were not suitable for fighting during the day. If it was true as the native said, the entire

If the people in the mountains are enemies of them, I'm afraid they all will have to answer here.
