Ba County.

At the end of April, a Qin army led by Qin general Feng Xuan led to capture Jiangzhou and sent troops to attack Yufu, an important waterway pass on the Yangtze River.

At this point, the Qin army completed the layers of encirclement of the Han army in Shu County. In addition to the barren land inhabited by ethnic minorities in the west, on the north, east and southeast, the Qin army advanced from land and water, leaving Li Shang's Han army nowhere to escape.

Shu County.

The wind and cranes were in a panic.

The prime minister of Shu Li Shang was in panic and anxious, and could not sleep all nights.

This high-intensity oppression is a great test for a person's ability to withstand.

Looking at Fan Mu's decadent figure, Li Shang suddenly rushed to the bronze mirror inside the house and carefully looked at his appearance and expression.

"Am I old? How is that possible? In just one year, I, Li Shang, will not grow old, nor will I be easily defeated. Li Yuan, if you have a genitals, come!" Li Shangruo laughed wildly.

The road to Guandong was blocked, and the connection with King Liu Bang of Han was cut off. The pressure of fighting alone came over like a mountain. Li Shang thought he could bear it, but now he found that he overestimated himself.

No matter how good Shu County is.

It is not my hometown either. For Li Shang, a native of Gaoyang, the mountains and rivers of Shu are not as beautiful as the land of his hometown.

This is Li Shang’s true feelings.

This is true for Li Shang, and is it the case for other generals and soldiers in the Han army. In the adversity of people returning home and being surrounded by enemies, Li Shang was increasingly unconfident in defending Shu County.

Let Fan Mu pretend to be a Qin army to rob. This is not a righteous idea, and it will even have an adverse impact on the reputation of King Liu Bang of Han, but Li Shang doesn't care about it now.

It is a day to be able to hold on for one day.

If you can drag the Qin army without attacking, just drag it.

In the face of the powerful oppression of the Qin army, Li Shang now had no hope of avenging his cousin Li Shiqi. Moreover, there was almost no danger in the Chengdu Plain area. The only thing Li Shang could beg for was that the Qin army retreated because it was difficult to transport food and fodder.

In Ba County, Li Yuan continued to win over the seven-sented Ba tribe Qu generals. This time, the Qin army entered Ba tribe, and unexpectedly did not adopt a tough strategy. He communicated with the seven-sented Ba tribe Qu generals one by one with sincere advice and personal consultation. Based on an in-depth understanding of the history of the Ba people, he not only proposed the policy of reducing taxes and reducing corvee labor, but also proposed the position of the Ba people equal to that of the Qin people.

Since the day when Ba County entered Qin, the Ba people were a member of Qin and the Qin people. On the basis of retaining the unique culture of the Ba people, they can enjoy equal discounts in the Qin people's recommendations, teachings, doing business, etc.

Recommended. Even if the Ba people are recommended, they can serve as local officials like the Qin people. If they have excellent political performance assessment in the future, they will have the opportunity to work as a central official in Qindu.

The teaching is to let the children of Ba people learn to read. The inheritance of culture requires generations of knowledgeable people to add notes and records. After seeing the records of the secretary of the Qin army, Qu Shuai, the seven surnames, became very interested in letting the young people in his clan study.

As the name suggests, business is to buy and sell. The Bajun area has many mountains and rivers, while other products are second to the next level. The salt cooking technology here is at the forefront, while the Guanzhong area lacks salt. For a long time, some merchants from Bajun have been engaged in private salt trading at the risk of crossing the Qinling Mountains. Now, Li Yuan's release of the Ba people can also participate in it, which undoubtedly gives the Ba people a chance to strengthen their tribe.

Ethnic issues.

It is an important proposition to test whether a politician is excellent.

Stop killing with killing.

This is an action that only the brave but not the strategy would do. Li Yuan adopted a strategy of expulsion and strong suppression against the Huns outside the pass and the Hu tribes in the north. But was Li Yuan a barbarian?

Obviously it is impossible. If anyone really thinks so, he will be treated with the idiots with the look of everyone, because if Li Yuan is not wise, then what kind of Xiang Yu, who was defeated by a barbarian, is Liu Bang considered?

The Ba people who have been suppressed and bullied have never expected that the one who saved them was not the Han King Liu Bang who welcomed them and had a gentle smile, but the Qin people who were regarded as a disaster by them. To be more precise, the young and sincere marquis in front of them.

People will change.

Humans are also the most fickle creatures.

In the face of interests, everything else is nothing more than empty talk.

At a meeting between the Ba people's Qushang, while the seven surnames Qushang was grateful to Li Yuan and the Qin army, he also began to complain to Fan Mu, a once highly respected warrior.

"Fan Mu is not a member of our tribe. I will definitely seek justice when I meet again in the future." Among the seven surnames, the most children of the Pu family were taken away by Fan Mu. At this time, seeing that the Qin army was not in trouble, the general was harmonious and the general was happy. Park Qushuo could not help but start to doubt Fan Mu's true intentions.

"The children of our tribe were scattered by Fan Mu. The day before yesterday, three people fled back from Shu County. According to them, the Han army in Shu County was recruiting young and strong people everywhere to expand their strength. Isn't this a mantis chariot and overestimating one's own abilities? It's a pity that our tribe's sons should avoid the war." The old coach of Luo also sighed and said helplessly.

When Fan Mu was ordered to lobby for Ba people to support Han King Liu Bang, Luo Laoqushuai was confused for a moment, listened to Fan Mu's words, and handed over a group of elite soldiers composed of the clan to Fan Mu's command. Now when he turned around, he suddenly realized that he had read the wrong person.

After a while, the old coaches finally found that it was completely wrong to hand over the force to Fan Mu. Then, they had lived for most of their lives and took remedial measures.

Under Li Yuan's proposal and promotion, the seven surnames Qu Shuai unanimously agreed to quickly form a county army to maintain local public security and arrest theft. Luo Qu Shuai's son Luo Xian served as the commander, assisting the Qin army in guarding various important towns in the Ba County area.

Luo Xian.

The name is the prefect of Yong'an of Shu Han in the late Three Kingdoms, and the famous general Luo Xian was named. Li Yuan did not go into verbal research on whether Luo Xian and Bi Luo Xian had blood relationship. What he wanted was Luo Xian's identity: the son of Daqu, the leader of the Luo family, which was enough.

Disintegrate the enemy.

First, start from the inside of the enemy.

Luo Xian is over forty years old, and he can only be considered mediocre in terms of ability. Otherwise, the one who made a name for himself would not be Fan Mu, who was other than the seven surnames. Luo Laoqushuai was quite pleased that his son could become the commander. He naturally knew the ability of his son.

However, it is one thing to know, but it is another thing to do. At the recommendation meeting within the Ba tribe, each person in the clan had a vote. Luo Xian was not capable enough, and even if Lao Qu Shuai was willing, he could not refute everyone. Now, it was the Shenwu Hou of Qin who directly proposed that he was interested in Luo Xian's ability. Even if there were different opinions in the clan, Lao Qu Shuai could still use the power of the Qin army to suppress it smoothly.

This is the case with Luo Qushuai. Although some of the sons of Park, Gong and others have underage, they also have many younger brothers and relatives. After reporting to Li Yuan, they were all successfully accepted and served as leaders of each small army. This made the seven surnames Qushuai very grateful to Li Yuan.

——.

Just as the Ba tribe commanders mentioned Fan Mu's hatred, the former Ba tribe leader was bringing people to Langzhong.

According to Li Shang's plan, he asked Fan Mu to enter Ba County and rob some Ba villages as a lie to the Qin army, and then pass the disaster onto the Qin army. This plan is very vicious. If it is implemented, as long as Fan Mu people are not caught, it will be difficult for Li Yuan to defend himself.

Unfortunately, Li Shang chose the wrong candidate this time.

Fan Mu was still a member of the Ba people after all. It was true that he defected to Liu Bang and was willing to serve the Han army. But for a goal that no one was sure of, he wanted to break up with the Ba people and become the killer hated by the Ba people. Fan Mu was not so crazy. So, after thinking about it, Fan Mu decided to sneak into Langzhong City and find an opportunity to assassinate Li Yuan.

Once Li Yuan died, Qin State was in turmoil, and the Qin army would naturally retreat from Ba County. At that time, Fan Mu would return to the Ba tribe in the name of restoring his hometown, and that would be the great warrior among the Ba people.

What the Fan Mu really wants is reputation, power, and worship of the Ba people.

Therefore, when he mastered the most powerful army of the Ba tribe, Fan Mu immediately took the soldiers away from his hometown of Ba County, allowing these Ba warriors who were accustomed to crossing mountains and ridges to come to the plains of the Tianfu Kingdom and become a trump card under his command. Under the intimidation of the Ba tribe army, even the prime minister of Shu Li Shang had to avoid the edge of Fan's purpose.

Up the Langzhong City Tower.

A black and white Qin army flag roared in the wind, her eyes were red-haired and dressed in Ba people. She was accompanied by several carefully selected Ba people, and was preparing to sneak into the city.

Not far from the city gate.

Fan Mu hid in a short bush, his face was terrifyingly gloomy. Looking from here from afar, a team of Qin soldiers and a team of county soldiers composed of Ba people jointly inspected at the city gate. Qin soldiers were nothing, and Fan Mu was not afraid. His current identity was a Ba hunter who came out of the mountains, and he was carrying wild animals that came to the city to exchange for salt, but the Ba county soldiers made Fan Mu embarrassed.

"Ship Qu, it's that guy Luo Xian, what should I do?" A confidant ran over nervously, approached Fan Mu, and said in a low voice.

"Let's go! I'll look for an opportunity to enter the city in the evening." Fan Mu pondered for a while, stared at a strong Ba man who was searching for people coming and going in the distance, and said gritting his teeth.

Fan Mu is unwilling to give up.

Langzhong is a place that is so familiar to him that he cannot be more familiar with. If Li Yuan cannot be assassinated here, Fan Mu dare not imagine what chance he has to let Li Yuan return to Hanzhong or Guanzhong. Seeing that the new forces led by Luo Xian within the Ba tribe were rising, Fan Mu was even more anxious.
