Chapter 149 Awe of power and unethical

In theory, the Wuling barbarians are also allies of the Shu army. In the battle of Yiling, all the bosses came out with them. So Liu Yin didn't think it was a big problem at first, and it was basically a matter of hitting it off.

However, when the barbarian soldiers blocked the way and drew a clear line with the Shu army with a bad attitude, Liu Yin also felt that something was not right.

Logically speaking, this shouldn't be the case.

But regarding this, Ma Su squinted his eyes, feeling inexplicably familiar.

Before he became famous, the Qiang people in Longyou also had the same attitude. Basically, I wish I had it written on my face that I don’t want to mess with you and don’t want to see you.

"Does your tribal leader know that you are blocking my Han envoy like this?" Ma Di raised his eyebrows, his tone a little more inexplicable.

"This is what our leader means! Shu people are not welcome in Wuxi!" the barbarian soldiers replied forcefully, not being polite to Ma Su at all.

"I see, I understand." Ma Su smiled slightly, nodded and suddenly realized.

"General, could it be that the Wuxi barbarians have been won over by Soochow?" Liu Yin asked with an ugly expression on his face and an uncertain expression.

"No, no, no, if Soochow wins over them, Ding Feng's troops will greet us now." Ma Di waved his hand and said with a smile.

"They just had a little hesitation and didn't think we could defeat Soochow. And they didn't think we could give them enough benefits, so it's time for us to take action."

The former Wuxi Barbarian King Shamoko was very popular with Sheji for his death in the Shu Han Dynasty, which made most Shu Han officials forget that this was still a barbarian tribe.

They are barbarians, so don’t think about them thinking too much.

"Then what should we do?" Liu Yin felt a little unsure. If even the Wuxi barbarians didn't support them, how many people would still be willing to support the Han army's eastward march.

"In this case, we usually use the simplest method." Ma Di held his helmet and said with a smile.

"any solution?"

"Give him a slap in the face and see if he dares to show off!" Ma Di said calmly, and then he drew his sword directly under Liu Yin's stunned eyes.

"Soldiers! Kill them!"

"kill!"

"kill!"

"kill!"

The troops behind Ma Su picked up their weapons almost instinctively, and charged forward with howls.

The barbarian soldiers blocking the road had no idea that the Shu army who came from afar to recruit would suddenly take action. Caught off guard, the Shu army killed hundreds of them.

Although the Wuxi barbarians have experienced Hanization and accepted Han technology, they are still far apart. Most of the barbarian soldiers carried wooden weapons and did not even have leather armor, let alone combat effectiveness.

With this small number of people, Ma Su's group of veterans who had survived the battle in Longyou were too many to beat them with one hand.

The barbarians who blocked the road persisted for less than a quarter of an hour before the Shu army defeated them. However, Ma Su didn't give them any face, and chased them all the way with his soldiers and horses.

After chasing for more than ten miles, a barbarian soldier suddenly appeared from the side, and the leading barbarian general shouted quickly.

"Han envoy, please stay! This is all a misunderstanding!"

Seeing that someone was talking, Ma Su reined in his horse and looked at the visitor with a half-smile.

As expected, all barbarians fear power rather than morality, so if you don't slap him twice, you will really treat yourself like a dish.

At this time, Ma Di recalled the time when the Wuling barbarians supported the Shu army during the first battle of Yiling.

When the late emperor led his troops to defeat the Zigui Wu soldiers, and when the vast army besieged Yiling, the Wuling barbarians began to send people to contact the late emperor.

When the late emperor led his troops to attack Yiling, the army rushed straight to Xiaoting, and when they were about to fight back to Jingnan, the Wuling barbarians sent out the main force to rush for reinforcements.

In this regard, the late emperor sent his servant Ma Liang, with the promise of an official position in gold and silk as the premise.

The Barbarian King Shamoko may have his heart set on the Shu Han, but this does not mean that all the Wuling barbarians have their hearts set on the Shu Han. At least most of the barbarian leaders are still on the fence, fearing power rather than morality.

Barbarians, barbarians...

"General Han, don't be angry! This is all a misunderstanding!" The barbarian leader hurried over and saluted Ma Su one after another to apologize.

"These were done by a few rebellious young people in the tribe, and we only found out about it."

"General Han, please calm down, we will severely punish the troublemakers when we return!"

To translate, children are ignorant and stop them from playing.

"What do you call your Excellency?" Ma Di twitched the corner of his mouth twice and said lightly.

"I am Samoqi, the current barbarian king of Wuling, Han Dynasty. My brother, General Han, should know him as the late king Samoqi." The barbarian general handed over his hand and confessed to Ma Su honestly.

It is worth mentioning that Shamoko, the barbarian king, was recognized by Liu Bei as the title, which can be regarded as a title to win over.

"I don't know the surname of the Han general..."

"Ma Su, you should also know my brother, Ma Liang." Ma Su looked at the opposite side with a half-smile, and said in an inexplicable tone.

"Just now, the Barbarian King said that this was a group of young people from the tribe who made their own decisions, but why did I hear them say that this was done with the tacit approval of the tribal leader?"

"In other words, should I call you the Barbarian King of Han Wuling now, or...the Barbarian King of Wu Wuling?"

Ma Su's targeted words made Samoqi's face change slightly, and she quickly explained.

"General Ma clearly knows that we, the Wuling barbarians, have always been the subjects of the Han! We are born as Han subjects and die as Han ghosts. We have never had two intentions!"

Of course, the main reason is that Soochow is unwilling to win over a group of barbarians. In recent years, the only one willing to win over them was the Shu Han regime.

"Really?" Ma Di raised his eyebrows, a little disdainful of the barbarian king's loyalty.

This attitude is simply the same as that of the Qiang people in Longyou. They are all a group of parallel imports who are strong on the outside but do nothing on the inside.

To be honest, they are a bit like You Chu who was chopped off by Ma Su. They put on a bluffing look just to raise the asking price. Once you show your fists, the person on the other side will be intimidated and will immediately kowtow to you and confess.

Again, the same sentence is said, barbarians are afraid of power but not moral!

Seeing that Ma Su's attitude was still calm, the second-generation barbarian king knew that he had probably screwed up.

Think about it, even if the Han army was defeated by Soochow, it would still be a powerful country. You can't even read other people's books, so the tricks you did may seem like just playing tricks to others.

Thinking of this, the Barbarian King wanted to beat the cerebral palsy elders of the tribe to death. What the hell are these ideas? What if the Han army is angry and takes back Jingnan without them?

"General Han, please. The tribal elders and leaders have been waiting for a long time when they heard that the Han army was preparing to recapture Jingnan." Although the Barbarian King wanted to slap himself, he still hurriedly said to Ma Di.

"Could it be the Hongmen Banquet?" Ma Di knew that the other party didn't have the guts to cause trouble, but he still sneered in a sinister manner.

"How dare I, general? This is the tribe leader and elder who hopes to rejoin the Han Dynasty and defeat the Jiangdong rats together!" Samoqi explained quickly, fearing that Ma Su would get angry and chop him down.

This time the temptation made King Barbarian understand that the big man was still the same big man with a tyrannical attitude.
