I wonder if Yong Zheng was driven crazy by his desire for survival, and at this time he still dared to threaten him!
But Liu Zhang thought so, Yongzheng must be crazy!
"Zhu Qiao, is what Yongzheng said true?"
Zhu Qiao was a little confused. According to his idea, Liu Zhang would be very worried when he heard the news, but Liu Zhang still had a faint smile on his face, as if everything was under control.
"General Wei, the survival of the Yong clan has a great impact on the barbarians. As for whether it will be like what Yong Zheng said, I don't know..."
After Zhu Qiao said these words, Liu Zhang's impression of him returned to the position of a barbarian.
Zhu Qiao wanted Liu Zhang to kill Yongzheng, but he was also afraid of bearing the consequences of killing Yongzheng.
Uncertain, looking forward and backward, Liu Zhang couldn't help but shake his head secretly, sighing in his heart that he still looked up to these barbarians.
"Didn't the Yong family exploit you barbarians all these years? Is he really thinking about the barbarians?"
"Shit! This bitch is nothing at all!"
Meng Kun suddenly roared angrily, pointed at Yongzheng and began to curse.
"This bullshit is better for our big tribes, but for the small tribes, it will squeeze them to death! Many barbarians are too angry to speak out, so everyone can only hold back in order to survive!"
Liu Zhang nodded slightly. He still liked Meng Kun's personality, which was more straightforward.
"Meng Kun, if someone replaces the Yong family and takes better care of you barbarians than the Yong family, do you think there will be anyone who will rebel for the Yong family?"
"of course not!"
Meng Kun blurted out without thinking, and answered very neatly.
"only..."
Meng Kun hesitated and finished half of his words, which also successfully aroused Liu Zhang's curiosity.
"Just? Just what?"
"Hey! You Han people all regard us as barbarians. Over the past hundreds of years, how many people have regarded us as normal people?"
Yizhou people are inherently xenophobic, let alone these barbarians in Nanzhong? Hundreds of years of grievances cannot be persuaded by a few words.
Meng Kun couldn't help but lower his head, shaking his head and sighing.
"Yes, they say that we barbarians like to rebel, but if it is not a matter of life and death, who would be willing to rebel?"
Zhu Qiao has been the patriarch for decades and has long seen through the tricks of these Han people. Unless it is profitable, who will care about their life and death?
Isn’t today’s Yongzheng an example?
Two barbarian chiefs of a large tribe came with their warriors to help in the battle. What ended up happening in the end?
Almost died!
It's not that the barbarians don't believe in the Han people, it's that they have no reason to believe at all.
"The hundreds of years of grudges between Meng Kun, Zhu Qiao, and the barbarians will be settled from now on."
Meng Kun and Zhu Qiao were shocked by Liu Zhang's words, and soon they began to shake their heads and smile bitterly.
It's very simple, the two of them didn't trust Liu Zhang at all.
"Hahaha! Liu Zhang, what? Do you want to slaughter all these barbarians in Nanzhong? Hahaha!"
This sentence failed to attract the attention of Meng Kun and Zhu Qiao. Instead, Yong Zheng laughed so hard that he seemed to have heard the biggest joke in the world.
Liu Zhang looked at Yongzheng with a sneer. At this time, he still wanted to sow discord.
When Liu Zhang looked at Meng Kun and Zhu Qiao again, he found that there was a heavy look of worry in their eyes.
It seems that these two people believed Yongzheng’s words!
"You barbarians and Han people have no serious enmity, and I believe that you are willing to coexist peacefully, but you just lack an opportunity. Now that Yizhou is under my jurisdiction, I will be willing to give you this opportunity!"
"General Wei, do you really mean what you said?"
Meng and Kun raised their heads again, and finally a glimmer of light appeared in their eyes.
"Yes, but you need to prove it to me."
"How to prove it?"
Meng Kun was very desperate, and Liu Zhang undoubtedly gave them a way out.
Liu Zhang curled his lips and pointed forward.
"Kill Yongzheng, and I will believe you."
The death of Yongzheng will inevitably trigger a fight between the Yong clan in Yizhou County and the barbarians, which will be more conducive to Liu Zhang's subjugation of the barbarians.
"this..."
Meng Kun and Zhu Qiao began to hesitate again, seeming to be still calculating the gains and losses in their minds.
"Why, Yongzheng wanted to put you two to death, and he also wanted to take the opportunity to destroy your two clans, and now you don't even have the courage to kill him?"
"Look at the dead barbarian warriors at your feet. As a clan leader, can you feel at ease?"
After hearing Liu Zhang's words, Meng Kun and Zhu Qiao showed obvious pain.
The two of them wanted to cut Yongzheng into pieces with a thousand knives, but it was easy to kill Yongzheng, but it would be a serious matter to form a deadly feud with the Yong family.
Although the Zhu Rong clan and the Meng clan are powerful, they are not the only ones in Yizhou County and Yongchang County, and they even have many enemies.
Once the two kill Yongzheng and Liu Zhang releases the news, it will inevitably cause a bloody storm in Yizhou County and Yongchang County.
If Liu Zhang chose to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, then the Meng family in Yongchang County would be better off, but the Zhu Rong family in Yizhou County would be unlucky.
"General Wei, I wonder how you plan to treat us barbarians?"
The answer to this question is very important to Zhu Qiao and is related to the future of the Zhu Rong family.
Meng Kun also stared at Liu Zhang closely. This issue was equally important to him.
"Didn't I say that I will regard you as people of the Han Dynasty? You will be given the treatment that Han people have. If you are willing, you will all be Han people from now on."
Liu Zhang has more than 2,000 years of memories of the times and knows that if you want to identify with a race, assimilation is undoubtedly the best way.
"You barbarians can study, be literate, cultivate land, and live under the rule of this general. You no longer have to spend all day in the mountains, you no longer have to worry about getting sick and have to wait to die, you no longer have to worry about being frozen to death in winter, and you no longer have to worry about being beaten to death in the winter.
Worry about not having food to eat! You can live in the city like the Han people, in a house, on any piece of land under the command of the Han general."
"Your children can still study, grow up to be talented people, and become officials! In short, you can have everything the Han people have!"
Liu Zhang solved all the current problems of the barbarians. He did not believe that he could not impress Zhu Qiao and Meng Kun.
The most difficult step in assimilating the barbarians is the first step. As long as there are barbarians who are willing to believe in Liu Zhang and feel Liu Zhang's goodwill and sincerity, more and more barbarians will come out of the mountains and become Liu Zhang's people.
"Liu Zhang, you have a big appetite! Do you think you can do what no one in Han Dynasty has been able to do for four hundred years? You are too naive, these barbarians are just feeding unfamiliar wolf cubs! Sooner or later you will regret it.
!”
Yongzheng's eyes were full of ridicule. He laughed at Liu Zhang for being too naive and actually wanted to be the savior of the barbarians!
The barbarians often rebel and surrender. This has been a practice for hundreds of years. No one can ever solve it!
In Yongzheng's view, Liu Zhang's idea was nothing more than wishful thinking, and sooner or later he would suffer the consequences.
"Meng Kun, Zhu Qiao, there are thousands of barbarian tribes, and you can find anyone to cooperate. But you only have this one chance!"
Liu Zhang gave the two men an ultimatum: surrender or perish.
