A pack of wolves surrounded the city, and the cavalry shouted. Facing Didao's strong and huge city, Liu Cang originally wanted Ying Fei to threaten him with a fire attack.

But the wolves had only circled half a circle around the city when Didao City Gate opened, and Longxi Prefect Li Shen rode a skinny horse to Liu Cang.

"Li Can and Li Xiangru, the governor of Longxi, come to see your highness." No one stopped him, and under the gaze of Meng Hu, Prime Minister Li dismounted and paid homage to Liu Cang.

"Li Shen, how can I be so virtuous and capable as to be worshiped by the governor of a county? Tell me, what does Didao City want?" Before the formation of nearly a thousand slave soldiers stabilized, Liu Cang temporarily put the slave soldiers aside and asked Li Shen.

road.

Li Shen left the city, but the city gate was not closed. The wolf pack of Yi Cong stopped running. Ma Teng led the Yi Cong to occupy the city gate. The situation was strange. Ma Teng waited for Liu Cang's instructions and escorted the soldiers on the city wall, but he did not dare to send troops into the city.

.

"Your Highness, Didao is suffering!"

"Luoyang is conducting a large-scale civil engineering levy, and the Huangmen eunuchs have forcibly discounted the price on the grounds of quality, and the collection period is indefinite. The people are uneasy, and I hope His Highness will show mercy." Li Shen shouted, and Liu Cang's brows jumped wildly.

"Are you using Didao City to threaten me? Do you think I can't attack Didao? Do you think these soldiers can't kill Didao?!" Liu Cang scolded angrily, pointing forward while speaking.

Slave soldiers lined up.

Now it was Li Shen's turn to have his eyelids twitch, and cold sweat streaked down his forehead. He had counted the officers and soldiers, and the Yi Cong, but he had not counted Liu Cang's bunch of Hu and Qiang slave soldiers.

Seeing the excitement and greed in the eyes of the Hu Qiang slave soldiers, Li Shen no longer dared to use the words he had originally thought of.

"Your Highness, Li Shen knows his mistake! The people of Di Dao are not guilty. In fact, Li Shen conspired to blackmail Your Highness with righteousness. Li Shen is willing to die to apologize and ask Your Highness to calm down." Li Shen, who originally knelt on one knee, knelt down on both knees and bowed his head.

Urgent call.

"Get up and talk! Talk like a human being!" Liu Cang cursed and pulled out a metal arrow from the quiver on horseback. The metal arrow missed, and the arrow hit Li Shen flatly.

This Li Shen was considered a scoundrel, and his pretense could easily ruin his reputation. Di Dao had his reasons, and Liu Cang had no intention of causing trouble to him, but when he tricked him like this, Liu Cang stabbed Li Shen in his heart.

"Peng!" The metal arrow hit Li Shen heavily, making a muffled sound, but it didn't hurt. Seeing the arrow clearly missing, Li Shen was secretly frightened. This arrow was not made of iron and was difficult to throw away.

Everyone around was silent. Li Shen carefully picked up the missing arrow. With a sarcastic smile on his face, he held up the missing arrow with both hands and handed it to Liu Cang who was sitting high on his horse.

"Ha." Li Shen was in his thirties, and seeing his shameless appearance, Liu Cang laughed angrily.

"You are really a talent." Liu Cang said to Li Shen, unable to distinguish between praise and ridicule.

"hehe.

"Li Shen was embarrassed and cautious, with no fear on his face.

This guy is a talented person, and Liu Cang really didn't mock him. He just wanted to use Liu Cang's relationship with Zhang Rang to clear the way for the young master, so that the young master would not make things difficult for Dido Zhengyun.

This act can barely be regarded as asking for life for the people, and this guy is not afraid of death, or he has disregarded life and death, but he does not have the stern and frowning virtues of most scholars.

Seeing him like this, Liu Cang gradually became less generous.

"Your Highness, Li had no choice but to do this. His master was seriously ill and bedridden, and Shen Wan did not dare to be disturbed by the secular world. Meeting with His Majesty in person was fruitless, and after hearing that His Majesty was begging for thieves, he had to make this decision." Li Shen said.

"Who do you study under?" Liu Cang frowned. He was very talkative, as if his teacher could handle Liu Hong's decision without getting sick.

"Li Shen is fortunate to be taught by Duke Wenrao." Li Shen straightened his face and said respectfully.

Liu Kuan? Liu Cang couldn't help but look at Li Shen carefully again. Liu Kuan seemed to be dying of illness when he left Luoyang. But when it comes to Liu Kuan, isn't there Fu Xie nearby?

"Fu Xie, Governor of Hanyang, if you don't go looking for him, why are you here looking for trouble for someone!? Think of someone as easy to talk to, but think of someone as easy to bully~!" Liu Cang felt angry again.

This guy comes from the same school as Master Fu Xie. Liu Kuan also taught Liu Hong. He can barely be considered Liu Hong's lineage. Your Majesty wants to kill him. Why do you want me to do it?

"Well, your highness, isn't Nan Rong difficult to use? The young man's servants are often fierce and powerful. If you ask him to talk to him, he is afraid of getting into trouble and chooses the opposite." Li Shen sighed, speaking freely and with a bit of freedom.

"Oh~~, a gentleman can be bullied. You are really not afraid of death." Liu Cang sighed.

"Hey, Your Highness is very kind." Li Shen's eyes lit up and there was joy in his tone.

"What are they talking about?" Among the people in the distance, young Ma Chao frowned and asked softly to the people around him.

"This general said that he is a gentleman, that's why he dared to bully me." Liu Cang curled his lips and said to Ma Chao from a distance.

Regardless of everyone's weird expressions, Liu Cang looked at Li Shen seriously.

"The Shaofu often serves more than ten people, and there are complicated complications involved. I think you know these better than I do."

"Now you are fighting for fame in the army, but you use me as a raft. If I don't kill you, you are a gentleman. Even if the world praises you for the people, I will regard you as the evil person who puts people in a dilemma. Is it wrong? ?”

Liu Cang asked, and the surrounding generals were suddenly stunned. Li Shen looked ashamed, and Dian and Wei generals looked at Li Shen with murderous intent.

"Haha, my lord is kind-hearted. If you use civilians to disturb the rebel army, Li Xiangru can punish the cholera army. If you kill him, he can be included in the battle report and spread throughout the world to serve as a warning." Jia Xu rode his horse beside Liu Cang and said with a chuckle.

Li Shen's face changed with shock. A group of soldiers were stunned for a moment, and a malicious smile gradually appeared on the corners of their mouths. These literati were really vicious. They told various versions of a simple matter over and over again.

The shrunken version of Ma Chao couldn't help but shudder, his eyes flickering between Liu Cang, Li Shen, and Jia Xu. Sure enough, he still needs to read more books in the future.

"The civil expropriation of Didao can be slowed down, and the stability of Longxi must be guaranteed. This world is still your Majesty's. There are some things that you can't control, and I can't control them either." Liu Cang said coldly to Li Shen.

At this time, Li Shen was a little more cautious. He was originally free and easy and couldn't help but restrain himself. He wanted to say something to Liu Cang, but Liu Cang drove his horse around him and came to the front of thousands of slave soldiers.

There are too many Hu and Qiang slaves here, with the number reaching 20,000 in just half of the county. Moreover, they surrendered too quickly and accepted the punishment. According to the common sense of the Han people, too much trouble will not bring about stigma.

These Hu Qiang people outside the Great Wall surrendered quickly and rebelled quickly. They were weak and slaves to the people. If they had the slightest chance, they would turn around and become overlords and bandits.

To be honest, Liu Cang originally wanted them to die on the battlefield to counter the rebellion, but when he talked about the attitude of the Hu Qiang outside the Great Wall towards slaves earlier, he felt that it would be a waste to let them die like this.

"Want to go home?!" Liu Cang asked loudly in front of the slave soldiers.

".

"The slave soldiers were silent, with confusion and confusion flashing in most of their eyes.

"Your plateau! Your cattle and sheep! Your women! They are all there! That's your home. Do you want to go home?" Liu Cang shouted again, pointing to the west, pointing in the direction of the Diqiang beyond the Great Wall.

The generals were at a loss, Jia Xu and Li Shen were thoughtful, while memories and hatred flashed through the eyes of most of the slave soldiers, as well as helplessness.

Most of these slave soldiers were not captured by the Han people. They were more likely to have failed in the war between the Hu and Qiang tribes and fled into the Han region.

They were weak, so weak that they could not attract the attention of the government. They were turned into slaves before they were officially accepted by Liangzhou officials.

But they don't really want to go back to their former hometown, because if they become slaves there again, the fate will be worse than in Han Dynasty.

"Kingdom, Song Yang has been protected by the Han Dynasty for many years. They have expanded the ethnic group and enslaved you."

"Han Sui and Bian Zhang are leading the court's official positions and holding the court's salary. They followed Xian Lingqiang and pulled you to revolt!" Liu Cang's eyes glanced at the front row of slave soldiers, and when they made eye contact, the slave soldiers lowered their heads one after another.

"Uprising! They are Han people! But what about you!" Liu Cang asked. The slave soldiers habitually showed cowardice and fear in their hearts, fearing that Liu Cang intended to kill them with his words.

Following Liu Cang's harsh tone, General Dian Wei did not know what Liu Cang was going to do, but they rode their horses to guard Liu Cang's side. Afterwards, Feixiongying and Yulinqi silently lined up and held their swords.

"Sir, spare my life! We are willing to die for you!" Some of the slave soldiers cleverly knelt down and begged for mercy. For a moment, there was a chorus of begging for mercy, and there was even a faint commotion among the slave soldiers in the front.

"You don't need to beg for mercy! You don't need to die for me! You should die on the plateau, in the homeland where your ancestors have lived and multiplied for generations!" Liu Cang sang loudly, and the slave soldiers were confused again.

"Uprising! You have found the wrong target!"

"There! That's your home! That's where you should bleed desperately for her!" Liu Cang pointed to the west again.

"Puhan and your compatriots, your people, bulldoze Panghan! I will take you home!"

"Hold your swords and guns! Take back your pasture! Take back your women! Take back your home! The tigers and wolves are with you, and I will take you home!" Liu Cang raised his arms with clenched fists.

"Do you want to go home?!" Liu Cang asked again.

The sound of the sound gradually grew louder, and all the Hu Qiang looked at each other, at the crowd around them, at the tigers and wolves in the wild, and at the cavalry general with distinctive armor and stomach behind Liu Cang.

Hope and greed flashed in the eyes of some clever slave soldiers. Yes, if this noble man who can drive ferocious beasts is willing to help us, then we...

"go home!"

"go home!"

"go home!"

The low voices gradually became louder, and some Hu and Qiang dialects gradually appeared in the Chinese. When the loud shouts of "go home" resounded throughout the audience, Liu Cang pressed down his hands, and the wilderness became silent.

"Uprising! The God of Heaven will turn suffering into strength! Flatten Wuhan, take your compatriots and go home!" Liu Cang held the sky with both hands and sang like a sacrifice.

"Uprising! Uprising! Uprising!" The slave soldiers were excited and shouted in the wilderness after losing their previous numbness and decadence.

All the troops knelt down and worshiped Liu Cang. Liu Cang ordered the army to assemble, and the slave soldiers stamped their feet and hammered their chests.

Jia Xu was a little dumbfounded, Li Shen was completely confused, General Dian Wei was a little confused about the situation, and the young Ma Chao was a little confused, uprising? What uprising? Is Liu Cang also rebelling with the rebels?

Fortunately, Liu Cang's whim didn't stop him. Fortunately, Liu Cang didn't forget to push Yu Han away first.
