Chapter 2407 persuading soldiers
Meng Huo was shocked. From Lu Bu's mobilization of the army, Meng Huo felt Lu Bu's ambition. In the process of fighting against the barbarian army led by him, he actually mobilized his troops and generals to prepare to pacify the barbarian tribes.
"I wonder how many troops King Jin sent to attack Wei County?" Meng Huo asked cautiously.
"Five thousand!" Lu Bu replied.
Meng Huo felt much relieved after hearing this. Five thousand troops attacked Wei County, which was garrisoned by 10,000 people. With the ability of the Golden Ring Three Knots, it was very simple to defend the city. In Meng Huo's view, the Golden Ring Three Knots were relatively easy.
A calm person will naturally have no problem defending the city.
"King Barbarian, the one who attacked Wei County was General Zhao Yun, the most valiant general under the King of Jin." Guo Jia reminded in a low voice.
"More brave than Commander Dian Wei?" Meng Huo asked in surprise.
"It's on par."
After Meng Huo heard these words, he was even more surprised. During the battle with the Chang'an army, Meng Huo saw the fierce generals in the Chang'an army. A general he randomly selected could kill him with a long sword.
Defeated, the soldiers led by Dian Wei were even more invincible on the battlefield, causing the barbarian warriors to suffer a disastrous defeat in the battle. Now Guo Jia has become the most valiant general under Lu Bu. How powerful he will be on the battlefield, Meng Huo has no idea.
Gained confidence.
"You should go back to the camp and rest first. We will discuss the rest tomorrow." Lu Bu said.
Hearing this, Meng Huo clasped his fists and said yes. In the blink of an eye, he became the subordinate of King Jin. Meng Huo felt relaxed. He did not return to the camp to rest, but went to the place where the barbarian prisoners were detained.
Huang Xu accompanied him. It was easy for him to enter the place where the prisoners were held. All he had to do was to persuade Dong Shena, A Huinan and more barbarians to join him.
After the battle with the Chang'an army, Meng Huo understood that if he went against Lu Bu, there would be no good end. Only by taking refuge with Lu Bu could the people of the tribe have a more stable life. At this time, Lu Bu had no need to deceive him.
If Lu Bu deceived the barbarian tribe, it would definitely bring about more barbarian resistance. He believed that Lu Bu would understand these truths.
The surrendered barbarian soldiers did not suffer too much trouble in the Chang'an army. This is also related to Lu Bu's order. These barbarians will be of great help in pacifying the barbarian tribes in the future. The power of example is infinite. If the barbarians are defeated after the defeat,
When they see hope of survival, they will not betray.
Besides, Lu Bu didn't say that he wanted to completely pacify the barbarian tribes just by relying on Meng Huo. To persuade the barbarian tribes to surrender, he also needed to combine it with the powerful fighting power of the Chang'an army. Only in this way could the barbarians be convinced and used by him.
The performance of the barbarians on the battlefield is heroic. If there is an extra barbarian army in the Chang'an army, it will definitely play a big role. When charging into battle, warriors with barbarian tribes will have more advantages.
.
Moreover, there is more than one foreign army in the Chang'an Army, including the Huns, Xianbei, Wuhuan, and Qiang. These armies have shown their value in the Chang'an Army. The Huns have repeatedly performed meritorious services on the battlefield, serving as
The elite team that Lu Bu valued highly would be reused at any time.
Lu Bu admired the performance of the barbarian soldiers on the battlefield, and gaining the allegiance of the barbarian tribes not only made the southern counties more stable, but also provided help to the army. All he paid was to let the barbarians enjoy the treatment of Han people.
This kind of treatment is exactly what the barbarian tribes lack.
The barbarian tribes respect the Han people, because in their eyes, the Han people are powerful, and there are rumors among the barbarian tribes about how powerful the Han army is. However, the barbarian tribes have received too much arrogance in recent years, which makes more people
Many barbarians rose up to resist the Han officials. If they could live a stable life, no one would choose to fight. Resisting the orders of the Han officials would mean that the barbarian tribes would become more turbulent. When they were forced to the end, they would naturally
Will rise up.
It is the same reason that ordinary people in the Han Dynasty chose to rebel when they suffered too many hardships and could not survive.
After seeing the current situation of the barbarian prisoners, Meng Huo felt a lot more relaxed. If these barbarian warriors were treated inhumanely because of him, he would be uneasy. After all, these barbarian warriors were fighting for the enemy on the battlefield.
The Chang'an Army captured prisoners, which meant that the Chang'an Army had the power to deal with them.
Meng Huo's arrival caused a lot of turmoil among the barbarian soldiers. Torches were lit in the huge camp. Meng Huo saw desire in the eyes of many barbarian soldiers. This was the barbarian soldiers' trust in him. Now he
Taking refuge with the King of Jin, I wonder what kind of turmoil it will cause among the barbarian soldiers.
After the tent became quiet, Meng Huo said: "I have surrendered to the King of Jin. From now on, you will be under the command of the King of Jin. If you are unwilling to surrender, I believe that the King of Jin will not be in trouble."
After saying this, Meng Huo could clearly feel the emotional wavering of the barbarian soldiers in the tent. They followed Meng Huo and had enough confidence in Meng Huo. This did not mean that they were willing to accept the reality of surrendering to the Han army. They
Many of them had family members who were persecuted by Han officials, otherwise they would not have gone on the road of resisting Han officials.
Now their king has surrendered to the enemy. Many generals have expressions of disbelief. In their eyes, their king has always been arrogant and invincible. Even though he has endured a little hardship on the battlefield, for the barbarian king
It doesn't matter to me, even if I die, I still have to maintain the backbone of a barbarian.
"The King of Jin will lead the barbarian tribes to a more powerful path. Do you believe in me?" Meng Huo asked.
From the expressions of many soldiers, Meng Huo saw hesitation, failure and his surrender, which shook the faith of the barbarian soldiers.
"After taking refuge with the King of Jin, the tribe was able to be preserved. Now that the army under the King of Jin has arrived at Wei County, many people must have understood the situation of the Chang'an Army's attack on the city. Do you think that the army of Wei County can resist the Chang'an Army?
Attack?" Meng Huo's voice suddenly rose.
No matter what thoughts the barbarian soldiers had in their hearts, Meng Huo left after saying these words, accompanied by A Hui Nan and Dong She Na.
After returning to the camp, Meng Huo turned his attention to Dong She and said, "Master of the Second Cave, I have taken refuge with the King of Jin. What do you think of this matter?"
"What this king needs to hear is the truth."
Dong Shena hesitated for a moment and said: "The King of Barbarians, after taking refuge with the King of Jin, although the tribe was able to be preserved, the way the Han officials treated the barbarian tribes must be known to the King of Barbarians."
