Chapter 498

Qianzhong County is a mysterious place.

According to ancient records such as the Records of the Gods and Records of the Historians, an old woman suffered from ear disease during the reign of Emperor Ku in ancient times. The witch doctor then picked out a giant cocoon from her ear. After the giant cocoon hatched, a five-colored dragon dog appeared, named Panhu.

Later, when the Quanrong rebelled, Emperor Ku claimed that if someone could take General Quanrong's head, he would marry the princess. In a few days, Long Quan Panhu would hold General Quanrong's head and present it in public. Emperor Ku was very surprised, and then kept his promise and married the princess to the Long Quan Panhu.

Panhu carried the princess into Nanshan, Wushan, and gave birth to six men and six women. Then these children married and reproduced each other, and grew up and survived in this area one after another. They were the indigenous people of Qianzhong County.

In terms of the administrative divisions of later generations, Qianzhong County is a zone where the three borders of western Hunan, eastern Guizhou and southeastern Chongqing are in later generations.

Lian Po stabbed out with a sword and accurately nailed a verdant poisonous snake on the tree that was about to hit it.

After a few breaths, Lian Po took back his sword, and the poisonous snake fell down with a click, and there was no movement.

"Apart from the mountains, there are mountains. People in the mountains all over the world are going to be suffocated to death in the mountains!"

After complaining unhappily, Lian Po turned around and stared at the guide beside him with a bad look: "How long will it take to get to Qiancheng?"

The guide accompanied the smile and said in an elegant and ingenious manner, "Don't worry, General, it will be one or two hours at most."

Lian Po nodded and said fiercely: "This is the sixth time you said you can arrive today. If you still can't arrive today, I will cut off your hands and feet and throw them into the forest to feed those poisonous insects!"

Lian Po was really annoyed by the mountains in Qianzhong County. Miasma, poisonous insects, beasts, mosquitoes and flies, and the humid and hot weather combined to form a completely different southern weather than the north. In just less than half a month, the troops behind Lian Po had reduced their troops by more than 5,000!

The only benefit in the past half month of marching may be that Lian Po saw too many poisonous snakes every day, and he could stab a poisonous snake to death with a sword. If he hadn't been unable to stand the smell of blood, Lian Po even wanted to try the smell of fresh snake gall.

Finally, after crossing a dense forest again, Lian Po suddenly felt cheerful, and a city of not very large appeared in his sight.

The guide breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said, "General, this is Qiancheng. However, since the Qin officials left, these have been occupied by the barbarians, and there are probably not many Chinese people."

Lian Po looked closely and found that there were already many figures running back and forth on the city wall, which seemed to be warning.

These people's clothes are colorful, with colorful feathers stuck to their faces, and they are wearing strange leather clothes. Many parts of their bodies are exposed, and most of them are barefoot.

Lian Po sneered and said, "Eat the meat and drink blood, the appearance of barbarians! Come on, follow me and destroy them!"

Lian Po was about to launch a charge immediately.

The guide was surprised and hurriedly persuaded him: "General, these barbarians do not look like this, but they are actually very strong. My suggestion is."

Lian Po pushed away the guide impatiently: "What are you? Let me stand here and watch carefully. Today I will let you know why Da Zhao can unify the world!"

After an hour and a half fierce battle, Qiancheng was conquered.

Due to the terrain, the city walls of Qiancheng are not as tall as those of the Central Plains. When there was no protection of the city wall, a group of barbarians who even lacked bronze weapons even had things like poisonous arrows, but they still collapsed after the Zhao army entered the city.

Lian Po stood in the lobby of the Qiancheng Order Office, looked at the dozens of barbarians kneeling in front of him with disdain, and shouted to the guide who was already completely stunned: "Tell them to surrender or die and choose one. Although their tribe has escaped, it is still okay for this general to kill their heads."

The guide came back to his senses and then said a few words to the dozens of barbarian leaders in front of him.

Then, an old barbarian leader who seemed to be older last year raised his head and said in a very strange and elegant tone: "This general, we are willing to surrender, we are willing to surrender."

Lian Po's eyes lit up and he said, "Do you know how to speak elegant words?"

Elegant language is the official language of the Zhou Dynasty, which is roughly equivalent to the Mandarin status of later generations in this era.

The old barbarian leader said: "I understand a little, I understand a little."

After a cross-examination that was not smooth in Q&A, Lian Po finally figured out the situation.

Qianzhong County is different from other counties. Due to its remote terrain, when Chu ruled this place, basically the barbarian tribes in Qianzhong County were just nominal surrenders. In fact, everyone was still the king of mountain in their own mountains.

The situation was different after Qin occupied this place. Many people know that Qin had a very strict control over the grassroots level, so after several years of efforts, the county magistrates and officials of Qianzhong County in Qin State had begun to show signs of gradual integration of Qianzhong County.

Such integration also caused dissatisfaction among many barbarian leaders in Qianzhong County who had lost their power, and rebellions of all sizes occurred from time to time.

This time, after learning that Qin State was defeated in the north, dozens of barbarian leaders united to attack Qiancheng, massacred all the Qin officials in Qiancheng, and then robbed the city.

The originally beautiful southwest official city became devastated in just a few days.

Lian Po was also lucky. If he came a few days later, these barbarian leaders would plunder and withdraw their troops with satisfaction. At that time, dozens of tribes of all sizes were located in the mountains, and the difficulty of encirclement and suppression could be imagined.

Lian Po's eyes lit up slightly when he heard this, and he said, "So according to your opinion, basically the main forces of the many tribes in Qianzhong County are here?"

The old leader nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, general, we are willing to serve the General and Zhao State, be the lackeys of the General, and ask the General to give him a chance."

Lian Po laughed and pointed at the old leader and said, "This man is kept, and all the other prisoners are killed. Remember, it is all!"

Of course, all captives mean not only the dozens of barbarian leaders in the lobby, but also the thousands and nearly tens of thousands of barbarian prisoners captured in the entire city.

The old leader was shocked and hissed: "General, you can't do this. Our old, weak and old wives and children are still waiting for us to return in the mountains. Without us, they will die!"

Lian Po kicked the old leader away and said coldly: "The king said, the city slaughterer dies! What's more, you are barbarians. I am the Chinese. You wantonly massacre the Chinese people in this city. Do you think that I will leave you a way out? Kill! Create a Jingguan outside the city and let these barbarians see what the end of robbing the Chinese city!"

On that day, blood was flowing in Qiancheng City, and a huge pyramid-like capital stood in the east of the city, which was spectacular.
