As mentioned before, the world is very big, the grasslands are even bigger, and there are many ethnic groups on horseback. The Qiang people are just one of the larger ones.
There are still many Rong and Hu tribes in the northwest. There are also large tribes with more than a million people. There are even more tribes with hundreds of thousands, more than 100,000, or even tens of thousands of people.
Nowadays, there are endless wars within the Han Dynasty, and the conquests of the princes are in full swing. However, these tribes inevitably underestimate the Han Dynasty. There once was a trade road, the Silk Road.
It was also forced to discontinue due to the weakness of the Han Dynasty.[
It's not that this road is impassable, but that Han merchants walking on this road without the deterrence of their own country are like a group of sheep and may be slaughtered by some tribes at any time.
Therefore, Liu Feng's suggestion that the Han Dynasty was weak and wanted to show off its power over the Qiang people was not an exaggeration, and Liu Feng's goal had been achieved.
After Liu Feng rested among the Qiang for a period of time, he led his army, prisoners, cattle, sheep, and horses back to Jincheng. But his reputation spread throughout the northwest.
The Qiang tribe is not the largest, but it is definitely the top tribe in the northwest. There were millions of them, but they were completely wiped out by Liu Feng twice.
Under such circumstances, it would be impossible for Liu Feng's reputation not to spread. What's more, during this war, many Qiang elites escaped. Just as Liu Feng expected, these elites escaped, truly spreading the prestige and power of the Han Dynasty.
Got out.
A force of 70,000 to 80,000 people can wipe out a large tribe with one million people and 200,000 to 300,000 elite soldiers. For the northwest grasslands, this is more than a bolt from the blue.
How could this not make the armies and barbarians in the northwest feel frightened and have trouble sleeping and eating?
How many Han people are there? They can't even count them. But as far as they know, Liu Feng has millions of people under his rule and can form an army of hundreds of thousands.
A million tribesmen that could be killed by an army of seventy or eighty thousand were wiped out in ashes. What if hundreds of thousands of armies were to attack all at once? Wouldn't that mean they would sweep across the northwest, no, the entire grassland?
Wuhuan, Xiongnu, and Xianbei, none of them can stop them.
Therefore, these Rong and Hu tribes are afraid, really afraid. They are afraid of becoming the next Qiang people and becoming the ghosts of the Han Dynasty.
However, fortunately, fortunately, the Han Dynasty is still in civil strife, and the terrible crown prince and the king's general will not easily send troops to the northwest again.
Moreover, as a country of Han Dynasty etiquette, wouldn’t they conquer other tribes without any reason? The Qiang people deserved it. They first invaded the Han territory with a large army, and then claimed that the Shennong clan was a branch of the ancient Qiang.
So it was deserved to be destroyed in a fit of rage. It was deserved.
As long as they don't lead troops into the Han Dynasty, as long as they don't provoke the Han Dynasty, as long as they respect the Han people, and by the way, as long as they go to see the Han Crown Prince and the king's general, they shouldn't have to face the Han Dynasty sending troops, right?
The northwest is shaking, the northwest is shaking.
During these days, the chiefs and Chanyus of these tribes could hardly sleep or eat well, but they gradually figured it out and remembered the virtues of the Han people.
If you know that you won't offend the Han Dynasty, there should be no problem. There are also tributes and the like.
Thinking of this, these clan leaders all slapped their foreheads and made a decision together, either sending their sons or ministers to Jincheng with countless tributes to meet the Han crown prince, Wang.
