Chapter 379

Shen Bing knew a little bit about this Tuoba clan.

The most powerful branch of the Eight Departments of Dangxiang is the Tuoba clan, originally living in the Yellow River area in the southeast of Sichuan and Qinghai. Later, because of the power of Tubo, they had to relocate a large number of them to the Xitao area of ​​Beidi and later established Xixia.

Therefore, many people in modern times classify Xixia as a foreigner and even take Xixia as Western Europe for granted. Because of the advanced technology of iron smelting and cold forging in Xixia, they conclude that the iron smelting in ancient Western Europe is stronger than China...

This time left Shen Bing speechless.

If Sichuan is part of the Central Plains, should the Qiang people living in the mountainous areas of Sichuan also be in the Central Plains?

The party item is just a branch of Qiang.

Even strictly speaking they belong to the Yellow River Basin, but they live in the mountainous areas at the source of the Yellow River.

Because they are in the mountains, most of them live on hunting and nomadism. Therefore, the civilization is relatively late, there is no text, no civilization, and the Central Plains are classified as barbarians like savages.

Since the founding of Xixia, it has fully accepted the culture and technology of the Central Plains and then developed rapidly.

If these were not enough, Meng Tian built the Great Wall in Xitao during the Qin Dynasty, and the area where Dangxiang moved to the Yellow River was within the Great Wall.

Moreover, the central government of Tang Dynasty agreed to give a piece of land and gave the surname Li Cai to move.

Is this inside or outside?

At this time, Shen Bing remembered that Xitao is the base camp of Xixia, a treasure land that is easy to defend and difficult to attack and rich in resources.

Modern Ningxia is taken from the meaning of "ping down the great summer".

The ancient capital of Xixia was in Yinchuan, Ningxia...Of course, Xitao at this time was still a wasteland and there was no city at all.

Thinking of this Shen Bing couldn't help but stunned, could it be that these "savages" in front of him were the ancestors of the later Xixia Dynasty?

Shen Bing couldn't help asking:

"Who is your department?"

The female leader replied:

"To Lishi!"

The question is also for nothing, Shen Bing will know the Tuoba clan but is not familiar with the Li clan at all.

But it shouldn't be wrong to think.

Because Dangxiang usually live in tribal surnames, the village of female leader should be a branch of Dangxiang.

Shen Bing jumped off the horse and took out a piece of healing tape from his suitcase to bandage the female leader... At first the female leader was a little scared, but she understood after Shen Bing signaled it, so she let go of the wound.

Shen Bing asked while bandaging:

"What's your name?"

The female chief answered:

"To Liqing."

"The Tuoba clan has always wanted to annex my clan, so this battle has happened!"

"The army has tens of thousands of soldiers, but you saved me this time but got into trouble..."

Shen Bing asked again:

"I want to know, why can you speak the Central Plains dialect?"

To Liqing answered:

"My parents were originally from Qin, and they were taken into slavery by the Yue clan!"

Shen Bing said "Oh".

Yueshi and Qin have been neighbors for some time, and they are under slavery. When they captured or looted Qin soldiers and civilians during the war, they would turn them into slaves.

The parents of Wang Liqing were afraid that they would become "savages" only after they fled to the mountains.

Wang Liqing continued:

"And the flock you are waiting for."

"The Tuoba clan has discovered them and will never give up!"

Shen Bing wrapped up Wang Liqing and said:

"Good health and recuperation for a few days will be fine."

Wang Liqing looked at Shen Bing with incredible eyes:

"Do you understand what I'm saying?"

"Leave here, otherwise..."

Shen Bing smiled and asked:

"Otherwise what?"

"I said, this is our land, and we will be here for as long as we want!"

He glanced at Liqing behind the sinking soldier, and asked with an angrily expression:

"But you can only wait for a thousand!"

"Do you think you can beat Tuoba with a thousand people?"

Shen Bing was stunned, and then she understood why she would be despised. She wouldn't think that Qin Jun really had only this thousand people!

Think about Shen Bing.

In Wang Liqing, these party clan groups were accustomed to living in groups based on their surnames, so she took it for granted that Shen Bing was the same.

She might even think that Qin State is like Dangxiang, using the surname as the tribe and fighting inwardly.

So a small tribe like Shen Bing was driven here.

Shen Bing didn't know how to explain.

And even if the explanation is not possible, if you tell her that there are tens of thousands of people in Qin State and hundreds of thousands of people in the army, there are more than 100,000 under the command of Shen Bing alone. I don't know if Xiang Liqing believes it.

It is estimated that Wang Liqing will definitely treat Shen Bing as a liar, because this is far beyond her understanding.

Shen Bing gave a "um" and replied:

"Why don't I wait to uproot this Tuoba clan?"

Wang Liqing looked at Shen Bing like a fool. After "you" for a long time, but couldn't say anything, he could only shake his head and smile.

Shen Bing is not joking.

What he thinks is, anyway, you Tuoba clan will establish the Xixia Association to join the foreigners to attack the Song Dynasty, and now it is still a "savages" or "savages", so I will teach you a lesson first.

What's more, it is not a good thing for the Central Plains to let the Tuoba family dominate the party and all ethnic groups. Therefore, it is necessary to engage in a "regional balance."

And this "regional balance" has to take advantage of its weakness. When Xixia is strong enough to confront Song head-on, then condemning Xixia for "disturbing regional balance" is simply a hooligan.

Is it because people have not developed what you call "regional balance"?Have to cut one's arms or even offer the results with both hands?

Therefore, Shen Bing did not hesitate, and immediately discussed countermeasures with Wang Ben after returning to the camp.

As soon as Wang Ben heard that he was going to do it, he was eager to use his hands.

Or it can be said that Wang Ben also noticed the disdain in Qin Jun's eyes when he looked at Liqing...

Shen Bing can ignore it, he Wang Ben can't stand it.

Now that he has such a good opportunity to stand up, how could Wang Ben object to him.

So I said without thinking:

"It's not easy. When the subordinates go down to Wuyuan, they will transfer the Shenwu Army, and kill as many as they come!"

In fact, it is true.

The Shenwu Army has 6,000 men and they are all cavalry. In addition, they use a strong bow comparable to the Xiongnu and are equipped with "Thunderbolt Fireball"... What if the Tuoba clan has 20,000 soldiers and horses?Still come to kill as many as possible.

But Shen Bing shook his head and denied this statement:

"The Tuoba clan and other barbarians hunt and fight in the mountains all year round."

"Why don't you go to war without probing the truth?"

"If I wait to tune in all the Shenwu Army... I'm afraid they will scare them away as soon as they appear."

Wang Ben nodded repeatedly:

"The general said it was true."

"These barbarians are good at walking in the mountains, and as soon as I flee into the mountains, I will not be able to catch up."

"Let's kill the chicken with a sledgehammer. There are one thousand Hanoi soldiers, and then another thousand Shenwu troops can be transferred."

Shen Bing thought about it, and said:

"Adjust two thousand divine warriors for a big victory."

"However, the two thousand martial arts troops are not known to be secretly marching, and after arriving in Xitao, they lurked two wings and three miles away waiting for orders."

Wang Ben responded and went to make arrangements.
