Chapter 303 Chiyou City
When Song San entered the Hou Mansion, Ouyang Shuo was doing morning exercises.
Since the "Huang Di Nei Jing" broke through to the fifth level, Ouyang Shuo's physical fitness has experienced a substantial increase again, whether it is strength, speed, vision, or hearing, they have all risen to a higher level.
His internal strength can already be called a small achievement.
Driven by the powerful internal strength, the Yang family's marksmanship and Bajiquan also improved by leaps and bounds. Especially the Yang family's marksmanship, with the magical weapon of the Heavenly Demon Spear, Ouyang Shuo is like a fish in water, and his marksmanship has improved at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Under the infusion of internal force, the black gun tip, a trace of golden light flashed away, dazzling.
As his personal strength grew, Ouyang Shuo's temperament also changed little by little. In him, there is not only the broad-mindedness of a lord, who is not angry but mighty, but also the cold and murderous aura of a general, iron-blooded and domineering.
Two completely different temperaments blended together to form Ouyang Shuo's unique style.
The "double-faced Shura" from the previous life seemed to have returned.
The difference is that in this life he stands taller and sees farther.
After finishing the work, Ouyang Shuo saw Song San standing at the door and asked, "What's the matter?"
"My lord, Leng Qian has safely returned to Gushan County and is on his way back to the base camp."
"Okay!" Ouyang Shuo breathed a sigh of relief, "Wait in the study, Ben Hou will be there soon."
"No!" Song San bid farewell and left.
Ouyang Shuo returned to the main courtyard, changed his clothes, ate something, and hurried to the study.
"Tell me, what's going on?"
"According to the information sent by Leng Qian, he has already investigated the reason for the migration of the mountain barbarians. All the mountain barbarians have migrated to a place called Chiyou City in Wuzhou."
"Chiyou City?" Ouyang Shuo was startled.
"That's right, the ones entrenched in Wuzhou are the Jiuli tribe who appeared in the wilderness after the Zhuolu battle." Song San had participated in the Zhuolu battle, so he knew this period of history very well.
Although Chi You was killed by Shi Wansui in the Battle of Zhuolu, as the leader of the faction, he will be resurrected immediately after the battle and lead the Jiuli tribe that appeared in the wilderness again.
But, didn't Gaia say that the Yellow Emperor Tribe, the Yandi Tribe and the Jiuli Tribe are all hermit tribes? Why did the Jiuli Tribe appear in the wilderness in such a high-profile manner, and recruit troops so blatantly?
If Chi You was the one who recruited the mountain man, then everything could be explained.
At the end of the Zhuolu War, Chi You led his troops to flee to the Valley of Ji Li. That night, Chi You arranged for his four brothers to lead a part of the tribe to the south and escape to the deep mountains and jungles in the south.
This part of the Jiuli tribe is the later Miao and barbarian.
Therefore, Chi You can be called the ancestor of the Shanman. As soon as he stepped forward, the Shanman still did not bow down.
"After Leng Qian comes back, let him come to see me immediately." Ouyang Shuo looked serious.
"Understood!" Song San bid farewell and left, leaving Ouyang Shuo to sit alone in the study and meditate.
Leng Qian rushed all the way and returned to Shanhai City in the afternoon. After returning, he immediately rushed to the Hou Mansion to report.
Ouyang Shuo brought Bai Qi and Tian Wenjing to discuss matters together.
Leng Qian began to report the detailed information he had: "The subordinates secretly followed the migrating mountain tribes all the way north, over the mountains and ridges, and it took half a month to get out of the 100,000 mountains. Chiyou City was built on the 100,000 At the foot of the mountain, it covers an area of about 60 square kilometers. Numerous farmlands have been reclaimed outside the city, so after the mountain barbarians migrate, there is no need to worry about not having food for the winter. The totem flag erected on the top of the city is the battle against Zhuolu in Jiuli The flags of the tribes are exactly the same. The subordinates were startled, and sneaked into the city to investigate with careful work."
"What we didn't expect was that there was not a single Han refugee in Chiyou City except for the Jiuli tribe and the mountain man. Before we had time to investigate further, we were identified by the patrolling soldiers in the city and had to flee in embarrassment. Follow me The brothers who went out together were all killed in order to cover my evacuation."
Speaking of this, Leng Qian lost control of his emotions, and tears glistened in the eyes of the iron-blooded tough guy. Those secret agents are the elites of the military intelligence group. They follow him through life and death. Although they are subordinates, they are better than brothers. How can they not make his heart hurt.
Ouyang Shuo was silent, in order to defend the territory, many good people died in foreign lands.
Leng Qian paused for a while to stabilize his mood, and then continued: "In Chiyou City, there is a kind of spirit bird in captivity, which is somewhat similar to their totem bird. This kind of bird is very magical, even more powerful than hummingbirds. The subordinates escaped from the city Afterwards, he was overtaken by the spirit bird and fled all the way, and the hummingbird was discovered by the spirit bird before he died."
Although Leng Qian said it lightly, anyone can imagine how dangerous the situation was. All his comrades were killed, and the hummingbird who delivered the information was also killed. He must survive and bring the information back to the base camp.
Along the way, Leng Qian didn't know how many fights he experienced, and how many times he narrowly escaped death. I don't know how many times I was awakened in my sleep in the wilderness.
Even so, Leng Qian did not give up, relying on his rich anti-tracking experience and jungle experience, successfully begged the tracker, and walked out of the Hundred Thousand Mountains alive in the absence of food.
Ouyang Shuo saw that Leng Qian's eyes were bloodshot and his body hadn't recovered to the best condition, so he said warmly, "You've done a good job, go down and rest! For soldiers who died in battle, the Military Affairs Administration will compensate them twice the pension standard family members, let them have no worries about food and clothing.”
"Thank you, Junhou!" Leng Qian suppressed his grief, took his leave and left.
"What do you think?" Ouyang Shuo asked Bai Qi and Tian Wenjing for their opinions.
Tian Wenjing, as a high-ranking official in charge of the Shanman's affairs in the territory, his duties have actually come to an end when something like this happened to the Shanman. The thing to consider now is how to finish it.
After pondering for a while, Tian Wenjing said, "Chi You's influence on the mountain barbarians is unnecessary. No matter how we deal with the relationship with Chi You City in the future, the most important thing right now is to deal with the mountain barbarian forces in the territory."
Ouyang Shuo's eyes narrowed, and he said, "Go ahead!"
"The Shanman living in the territory includes the Shanman warriors in the army and their families, the Shanman settlements in the eastern suburbs of Shanhai City, several Shanman tribes that still live in the mountains around the Langshan Mine, and Gushan County. There are too many unstable factors inside them, and if they are not sure, they will be tempted by the envoy sent by Chi You, and they will have a different heart, so they have to guard against it. Especially in Gushan County, all the people living in it are mountain barbarians, and they are close to Shiwan Dashan. Most dangerous."
"How to prevent?" Ouyang Shuo remained calm.
"First, the mountain barbarian warrior group. The heavy infantry composed of mountain barbarian warriors is the ace troop of the territory. Once there is a change, the consequences will be disastrous. I don't want to say much about the restraint in the army. I believe that the general and the evil general will definitely There is a way. What I want is to move all the relatives of the Shanman warriors to Shanhai City to settle down."
Ouyang Shuo nodded, looked at Bai Qi, and said, "General, take some time to go to the Third Division."
"Don't worry!" Bai Qi said concisely.
"Secondly, the Shanman settlements in the eastern suburbs of Shanhai City. The Shanman tribes who settled here were the first group of Shanman tribes to belong to the territory. They have experienced a bumper harvest of food and lived affluently, and have basically integrated into the life of the territory. Therefore , It is enough to monitor them a little, without fanfare."
"Thirdly, there are several mountain barbarian tribes that still live in the mountains around the Langshan Mine. They are centered on the Xuanniao tribe. Most of the children in the tribe have already held important positions in the army, and their lives are still quite affluent. No matter what , whether they like it or not, they have to go down the mountain and settle down. Otherwise, they are a bunch of time bombs, which may be detonated at any time. As for the location of settlement, Wei Chen suggested that they choose the western suburbs. It just happens to be the implementation of the western development strategy , requires a lot of labor. At the same time, the Langshan garrison battalion also needs to be replaced.”
"Fourth, Gushan County. Gushan County is a completely autonomous county of Shanman. They have not yet established a deep enough bond with the territory, and they are also the most easily instigated group. Wei Chen suggested that Gushan County should be relocated as a whole. To the west, and then arrange the army to closely monitor."
Ouyang Shuo basically agrees with the first few items.
When Tian Wenjing mentioned the last point, Ouyang Shuo frowned and said, "This method is not appropriate. Not to mention whether they have different intentions, after such a toss, Shanman will never be truly caring to us again, and the pimple in our heart will never be wiped away." Not only that, but it is also easy to chill the hearts of other mountain barbarians, and make the policy of equality of all races that the territory has always advocated be useless, which is greatly inappropriate."
"But......"
"Yangon, you don't need to say it, I have made up my mind. The self-government policy of the mountain barbarians in Gushan County must not be changed."
"No!" Tian Wenjing sighed.
"Don't worry. I'll ask Lei Fan to come over another day and have an in-depth conversation with him. From what I know of Lei Fan, this person has a lot of hills in his heart and is not a short-sighted person. He should know, stay in the territory , is far more promising than running to Chiyou City. Otherwise, he would not have reported the abnormality of the mountain man immediately."
"Your Majesty Shengming!"
"To persuade the Shanman tribe to go down the mountain, you have to go to Yangon yourself. The key to this trip is still the great wizard of the Xuanniao tribe. Yangon, you bring a gift and visit the great wizard in person, and bring my Greetings. As for the matter of Chiyou City, you can also tell the great wizard. The great wizard is a real wise man, he will understand." Although he only met the great wizard once, it has left a deep impression on Ouyang Shuo.
"promise!"
Ouyang Shuo looked at Bai Qi and said, "In military affairs, one or two precautions are necessary. The 3,000 soldiers who were previously included in the temporary reserve should also be put to use. A garrison battalion will be set up to replace the Langshan garrison battalion. The rest The 2,500 people in the army formed an independent brigade, which was attached to the Daying Camp in the east of the city and was responsible for guarding Gushan County."
"This is a very appropriate move!" Bai Qi nodded in agreement.
Ouyang Shuo believed that even if Chi You was hostile to him, he would not choose this moment to stir up trouble. For a hero like him, strengthening his power is the top priority.
