sweeping the world

Chapter 348 Do something, this is it!
Liu Yan is currently using nearly 13 Han troops to surround the remnants of Yao Yizhong from four directions. To the west are [-] cavalry led by Huan Wen as the general and Xie An as the marching commander. To the east are four troops led by Liu Yan himself. Wanbuqi, above the Yellow River and Jishui is the fleet.

Yao Yizhong's troops had already lost their vigor after fleeing all the way, and then the food supply was really reduced, coupled with the difficulty in obtaining water sources, morale fell to the bottom, and there was no atmosphere of "sorry soldiers must win", but the soldiers one by one gradually changed over time. With the passage of time and the construction of fortifications by the Han army, the heart became more and more desperate.

To be serious, the approximately [-] troops Yao Yizhong had on hand were all cavalry. If they really fought to the death, they could cause a lot of damage.Breaking through the siege was really a no-brainer. Two big rivers blocked the way to the north and the south. There was a city wall in the west that was difficult for cavalry to break through. There was hope to break through in the east, but breaking out from the east still had to be surrounded.

Seeing that there is no hope of breaking through except desperately pulling a few backs, that is why Yao Yizhong wanted to find a way out. Even the saying that Qiang and Han were actually the same ethnic group in the Shang Dynasty was turned out.

To tell the truth without falsehood, if we take it seriously, human beings really originated in Africa together, and after tens of thousands of years of migration and reproduction, they were distributed to all parts of the world.In this way, it seems that there is nothing wrong with saying that human beings are a common ethnicity.

The previous remarks appeared in the Western Han Dynasty. Both the Huns and the Han elites recognized that both sides were descendants of Yan and Huang Miao people, so that the Han-Hungarian war was once interpreted as a national civil war (囧).

There are many similar things in history. For example, Zhuyue and Zhuman are also considered to be of the same Miao descent as the Han people. The source of this belief is the battle between Huangdi and Chiyou, or the battle between Yandi and Huangdi, Hu people, barbarians, etc. All of them came from the defeated who fled and multiplied after losing their leadership.

Liu Yan had no evidence to prove who belonged to the same ethnic group as whom. Once again, he received a handwritten letter from Yao Yizhong and had to take it seriously when he saw similar remarks.

Whenever Yu Yi came, Liu Yan thought that Yu Yi was a well-read cultural person, so he raised some questions.

"There will be disputes within the fifth server, and strangers outside the fifth server." Yu Yi likes Liu Yan to ask him to solve his doubts, and he tries his best to give the answer: "This is true for blood relatives who have not been long, let alone have blood feuds and culture." Two peoples that no longer align with their beliefs and sense of identity."

Liu Yan was surprised. He didn't expect people at this time to have such an opinion. Is it no wonder that the Yu family is the current number one clan in the south of the Yangtze River?The Yu family's family inheritance is definitely not ordinary. It has educated a group of people capable of writing and martial arts, that is, the elites of the Yu family are somewhat... huh?lacking.

Of course, Yu Yi would say that with a political purpose. The Qiang nationality is now the most populous ethnicity in the Central Plains.It's hard to say whether Yao Yizhong is going to serve Liu Yan wholeheartedly, but even if there is a one in ten thousand chance, Liu Yan will definitely add incalculable benefits to the Central Plains campaign after getting the support of the leader of the Qiang people.

For any regime that has unified the Central Plains, the next step must be to ensure that there is no shortage of Jin Ou. Attacking the south of the Yangtze River has become inevitable. Any piece of "territory that has been sacred and indispensable since ancient times" will be recovered. The descendants of future generations will poke their backs. No matter where they are and what achievements they have made, as long as Ca Mau is not complete, the historical evaluation will not be very high.

The military front displayed by the Han army has shocked the world, and it is no secret that Liu Yan will establish a country.

After Liu Yan founded the People's Republic of China, it is conceivable that there will be a period of crazy expansion. This is the inevitability brought by politics. It is also the period when the army is at its most energetic after the founding of the People's Republic of China. It is unjustifiable not to expand outward.

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the Han army will inevitably have repeated battles with the Shijie Zhao army, but Yu Yi does not think that the Shijie Zhao country can be wiped out in a short time. Results may appear within a short time.The income from expanding to the Central Plains is limited, and the possibility of the Han army shifting targets is not impossible.

Shijie Zhao Guo's water warfare is not good, and the repeated southern expeditions can only achieve some results, and it is difficult to destroy the Eastern Jin dynasty in one battle, but the Han army has a huge fleet and water warfare skills.

Looking at the performance of the Han army in the Central Plains battlefield, combined with the fact that Liu Yan did not know how many fleets he had in his hands, it would be reasonable for Yu Yi to worry about the expansion of the Han army to the south.

Sang Yu, who was drinking tea quietly by the side, looked at Yu Yi coldly.

Maybe Liu Yan didn't think much about it, or maybe he thought about not making a fuss, but Sang Yu couldn't let Yu Yi interfere with his own decision-making.

Yu Yi smiled embarrassingly when Sang Yuna gave him a cold look, the words had already been said, what else could be done?He just waited to see how Liu Yan would react.

"All races in the world have the same origin. This is a great statement." Liu Yan was not ill. He touched the beard growing on his chin and nodded with satisfaction: "This statement must be publicized."

How did the Han nationality form?It doesn't just refer to blood, but also generally refers to people's sense of identity.To let a person who is not originally Han believe that he is an out-and-out Han, and whoever says he is not Han will fight with others, willing to fight and shed blood for the great cause of Han, this is an achievement!
Liu Yan's statement has an absolute foundation. It may be a bit difficult for the Han people to talk about shopping, but there is no need to be afraid of anyone when talking about the level of culture.Whoever can master the culture can take the initiative, and with the necessary force as a backing, whoever is said to be a Han Chinese is a Han Chinese!
Sang Yu also reacted, giggling and looking at the astonished Yu Yi, raised the teacup and took a sip.

They were talking here while drinking tea, and Yao Yizhong was eating chewy horse meat and sleeping in the open.

Although it was a rush to break through, and he was forced to discard everything that could be discarded along the way so as not to be slowed down, it is absolutely unreasonable to say that Yao Yizhong didn't even have a tent, but he had to put on a gesture to show that he shared weal and woe with the soldiers .

Yao Yizhong is sitting cross-legged in the center of a circle, surrounded by a group of tribal leaders, chieftains and generals.He just introduced the situation, including the news that he had sent three handwritten letters to Liu Yan but received no reply.

"Patriarch, are they going to drive us all to extinction?" Bai Luoyuan was a tribal leader who controlled more than 5000 cavalry among the remnants.He had a ferocious expression on his face: "You have to work hard as soon as possible, otherwise it will be useless to wait for them to build the fortifications."

Yao Yizhong looked at the others.

Now is the time for everyone to express their opinions, whether to numbly accept the fate given by others, or to fight hard and pull some backs, there is really not much time left for them, after all, the food and fodder have already begun to kill horses and eat meat.Killing a horse is not a trivial matter for the Hu people. It has nothing to do with the value of the war horse. The Hu people have been with their war horses since they were young. When it comes to killing their companions to eat meat, it is already the worst situation.

"Don't they understand the meaning of the clan leader?" Some want to fight desperately, while others want to survive. Fu Ying belongs to the latter. He said expressionlessly: "Don't Liu Yan know that getting our support will mean a lot to him?" How will hegemony help?”

Yao Yizhong's cheeks twitched, and a killing intent towards Fu Ying arose in his heart.He didn't want to kill Fu Ying because he was a capitulator, but those words implied that he, the patriarch, had an unstable position among the Qiang people.

Any nation does not want a loser to be its leader, but Yao Yizhong has just experienced an unprecedented defeat.To say that his status as the leader of the Qiang nationality is still as stable as a rock is to deceive himself and others. Maybe the news of their defeat has spread to other places, and someone has already set their sights on the throne of the general leader.

"Aren't we already at the end of our rope?" First Star is one of the group of people with relatively few troops, and he said tentatively, "How about...don't exaggerate the conditions of the patriarch and lower the requirements?"

Yao Yizhong made a lot of demands that seemed outrageous, but compared to the benefits he could get from millions of Qiang people, those conditions did not seem excessive at all.

People with sufficient IQ know that the more outrageous the conditions, the greater the hope of surrender.People with worrying IQs can't do the math.And this is the gap between people.

The discussion soon turned into a row, during which Yao Yizhong just listened quietly. He needed to distinguish how his team split up, which ones were trustworthy, and which ones needed to be on guard or killed quickly.

Generally speaking, those who want to work hard and those who want to surrender are equally divided. Wanting to work hard does not mean not wanting to surrender, and wanting to surrender does not necessarily mean losing courage. The complexity of things is never as simple as one plus one equals two.

A test between high-level officials made Yao Yizhong feel cold in his heart. Although there is no proverb among the Qiang people that "it is difficult to lead a team when people's hearts are broken", it does not mean that Silly Huhu does not understand similar principles.

"I've already made a decision." Yao Yizhong's quiet words made those arguing stop and look over.He stood up slowly, turned his eyes to the direction where Liu Yanda's banner was, saw that the lights were brightly lit there, listened to the joyful songs and laughter there, turned his eyes back to look around the crowd, and said plainly: "When the sky dawns, I will Will go to meet Liu Yan in person. If I am killed at Jieshi, you will fight hard. If I am imprisoned, you can resist and try to kill as many Han troops as possible before surrendering. If I can come back, I will surrender unconditionally."

A sound of astonishment was exhaled, everyone had their own understanding, and the expressions on everyone's faces were exciting enough for a moment.

how to say?There may be luck in what a person achieves, but there must be a reason for success.

Yao Yizhong's current performance is worthy of the status he has acquired. He has arranged for almost all the actions Liu Yan can take, and he has the courage and will to personally verify Liu Yan's tolerance.

Of course, Liu Yan never guessed that Yao Yizhong would come here with only one person on his shoulder, so Liu Yan was stunned for a long time when he got the news when the sky was bright the next day.

"Repeat again." Liu Yan actually heard it clearly, but he was shocked and couldn't believe it.He listened to it again, and the next sentence was: "As expected of Yao Yizhong."

Yes, Yao Yizhong is here. He is wearing a casual Confucian gown that scribes often wear, not a military uniform, with a sword hanging from his waist. He is riding a tall horse and slowly approaching the gate of the Han army camp.When the Han soldiers on duty were surrounded by confusion or ecstasy and were about to take action, they announced their names, titles, official positions and their intentions.

"Soldiers on duty have to make a demerit, and they didn't shoot the arrow directly." Sang Yu is the commander of the army, and he is responsible for military discipline.He was also talking about the duty of the sentry post, and obviously those soldiers really failed their duties.He looked at the solemn Liu Yan and asked, "Do you want to see your majesty?"

Liu Yan thought a lot, including whether Yao Yizhong thought he was extremely brave and wanted to set up a situation to kill him under completely unfavorable circumstances.He looked at Sang Yu, nodded and said: "The war between us and the Qiang people is not a battle between gentlemen, but not seeing him is a loss of grace."

Of course we wanted to see each other, but it was not Liu Yan who went to greet him, it was the Han army who brought Yao Yizhong to the Chinese army, prepared the necessary protective measures, and then brought Yao Yizhong to the big tent to meet Liu Yan.

Making so many preparations has nothing to do with whether Liu Yan is afraid of death. It can only be said that he is an idiot if he does not make any preparations in order to show his courage and bravery.As a leader who does not pay attention to his own safety, what will his subordinates think, and what guarantees should the country have? There are too many ways to show his bravery and self-confidence, but this is not how he does it.

Yao Yizhong was taken into the camp alone, while another warrior of the Qiang nationality carrying a banner was left outside the tent.After he entered the camp, the first thing he saw were the civil and military soldiers on the left and right sides, as well as soldiers and crossbowmen waiting in full force, but the main seat was empty.

But for some unknown reason, Yu Yi was also inside the tent. He was arranged in a corner on one side of the tent, and he was looking at Yao Yizhong with scrutiny.

Speaking of it, Yao Yizhong didn't look like a savage barbarian, and naturally he didn't have a bookish spirit, but he looked heroic and stalwart.He has a reputation for being upright and upright, and he seems to have maintained a relatively good reputation all the time. He is by no means the kind of villain who looks like a villain at first sight.

Yao Yizhong was already mentally prepared to be watched, whether it was malicious or ridiculed.He frowned immediately when he saw that the main seat was empty. Although he came here with the will to die, he was full of anger for not being respected by Liu Yan.

Liu Yan's absence was not out of humiliation, he had other more important things to deal with, such as the Jizhou battle report, and the latest news from Yecheng.

Yao Yizhong didn't wait too long. He stood there with his eyes closed for less than half a quarter of an hour. He opened his eyes again when he heard the sound of footsteps. A young and tall man walked from the back tent. Come out, go straight to the main seat and sit down.

The person who came was undoubtedly Liu Yan, with a full smile on his face at the moment, he first said to the subordinates who were saluting, "Sit down", and finally looked at Yao Yizhong...
