Yinhou of the Three Kingdoms

"Sincerity! I have heard that sincerity is the most important thing for the Han people. Let them retreat ten miles, and we will naturally admit defeat!"

Old Baiyang's words were brought to Ning Rong by the messenger.

admit defeat?

Playing with these two words, Ning Rong secretly nodded.

"Tell him! It is impossible for the army to retreat. If he can show sincerity, the Marquis will let the cavalry retreat!"

Ning Rong ordered playfully, watching the messenger go away, Liu Ruo and the others were not calm.

"Military commander, absolutely not. The only thing the Qiang people value is horses. If we withdraw the cavalry, it is up to us to advance or retreat!"

"Military Master, you can't be too merciful. These Qiang people are used to treachery. Without cavalry, it is impossible to stop the Qiang cavalry!" Yin Shu and Zhu Ling also looked anxious, not knowing why Army Division Ning became like this today. be kind.

Chapter 888 Battle!big fight!

Hu suit riding and shooting!

Since King Zhao Wuling carried out military reforms, chariots have gradually withdrew from the battlefields of the Central Plains, while cavalry has become the trump card for defeating the enemy.

The advantage of the cavalry lies in its excellent mobility. It can run like a bird, or fly like a string. The speed of coming and going without a trace is the reason why the cavalry dominates the battlefield.

but……

Now facing the Qiang people who are good at cavalry, Ning Rong ordered to abandon the cavalry, which is undoubtedly self-defeating.

Facing the eager expressions of the generals, Ning Rong was neither impatient nor impetuous, his bright eyes shone like stars in the dark night.

"Hey! Hugh is so wordy, who is my Marquis!"

The corners of Pei Yuanshao's mouth turned up, his face was full of arrogance, and he groaned at several people.

How stupid!My Lord Hou has always considered exhaustive strategies, thinking that he had never failed in all his efforts across the Central Plains, so why should he be afraid of a few Qiang people.

Moreover, Pei Yuanshao could see clearly that the corners of Ning Rong's mouth were raised just now, evoking a playful smile, which made his heart tremble and reminded him of himself back then.

"I think back then I was invincible, and I didn't play tricks in front of Lord Hou, let alone these Aries and Qiang people!"

In order to increase the credibility of his words, Pei Yuanshao hastily added another sentence.

Uh?

Ning Rong didn't reply, but when he heard Pei Yuanshao's words, his expression froze and he curled his lips. Is this a compliment to himself?

"Okay! Yuan Shao, have you brought all the things I asked you to bring?"

Ning Rong interrupted their argument and asked Pei Yuanshao.

"Go back to Lord Marquis, I brought them all! It's just...how should I do it?"

Ning Rong pointed to the messenger who was rushing from afar.

"Give him things and let him handle them. The Qiang people will definitely not notice, but...you give him clear instructions, don't let him go back and forth along a line!"

"Lord Hou, I understand..."

Pei Yuanshao scratched his head with a smirk, and secretly went to the side to explain the matter to the messenger.

……

"Boss, the Beifu army on the opposite side only agrees to withdraw the cavalry, and also requires us to show our sincerity first!"

"Ok!"

Old Aries nodded, he heard what the orderly said.

Sincerity?

The Qiang people and the Beifu army have never had any interests, so what sincerity can he show?

Do you want them to lay down their arms?No!That is naturally impossible.

Without horses and weapons, the Qiang people are like lambs waiting to be slaughtered.

but……

The conditions offered by the Beifu army really moved him. Of course he knew that it was impossible for the Beifu army to retreat, but didn't the Han people always ask for the price and pay back the money on the spot!

The Beifu army without cavalry is a beast without teeth, so the Qiang warriors will naturally not be afraid.

"Ada, are those people~sincere~ so?" The Great Elder stroked his messy beard and pointed to the surrounded centurions behind him.

"them?"

Only then did the old Aries remember that there were more than 100 Beifu troops surrounded by him, but this person was a bit small.

However, he really couldn't show any sincerity at this time, so he had to give it a try.

The messengers kept running in front of the two armies. In order to speed up the flow of information, Ning Rong specially sent six messengers to run back and forth one by one to deliver the content of the negotiation.

"Master Hou, everything is arranged!"

It wasn't until Pei Yuanshao told Ning Rong that he was ready with a sinister smile that Ning Rong waved his hand and reached a consensus with the Qiang people.

The Qiang released the Beifu soldiers of the hundred-man team, and then gave them a thousand cattle and sheep.

As a condition, Ning Rong asked the cavalry on the left and right flanks to retreat for three miles.

"Patriarch, these thousand cows and sheep are too many..."

The great elder of the Qiang people pulled his face and asked the Beifu soldiers of the centurion to be released from the encirclement, and then muttered to Bai Yang.

"Hehe...Since the Beifu army wants it, then we naturally agree. No matter how powerful the Han people are, they still believe in what they say, so stupid!"

Hearing the patriarch's words, the other people's minds became active.

"That's right! When we return to the camp, we won't give each other a single wool!"

"Exactly! The prophet's words are never wrong. Han people repay evil with kindness. If we can't win, as long as we surrender and admit defeat, and be sincere, we will not only be treated kindly by the other party, but they may even give us some gold, silver and jewelry!"

The Qiang people talked more and more lively, and Aries nodded with his lips pursed.

This is not their daydreaming, but what countless ancestors told them. Han people pay attention to benevolence and righteousness, which is also a common method used by grassland peoples.

If you don’t have anything to eat, go and plunder the Han border, wait until the Han army arrives, fight a battle, and if you lose, you will simply surrender, and then say some flattery, and then give your own cattle and sheep to the opposing emperor. Kill them and give them a lot of food.

Of course, if he is strong enough to defeat the opponent, he might even be able to marry the princess of the Han Dynasty.
