[Three Kingdoms] Burning incense and sacrificial wine

Two months passed quickly. When the cold new wind brought the first snow to Xishan, the injuries of Cui Song and Guo Jia showed signs of recovery. Although Qiao Ji strictly prohibited all strenuous activities, the most basic Walking is no problem.

From this, Cui Song can see that Qiao Ji's medical skills are really good. After all, it can be cured to such a degree within two months after being injured for a hundred days. Even Cui Song, who knows nothing about medical skills, understands it It's not easy.

The children in the village who also received treatment also gradually recovered. However, the damage caused by heavy metals is irreversible, and it is a headache even in modern times.The next generation of the female Qiang people were considered half ruined, which made the hunters in the village hate the Zags people who brought it all the more.

I don’t know if it’s because on the day of the accident, when the tattooed boy named Ma Yulang was embarrassed by everyone, Cui Song and Guo Jia’s attitude of discussing the matter unintentionally helped the boy and gave him justice. Since that day, The taciturn and gloomy tattooed boy often followed behind the two of them, not far or near, without speaking or greeting, floating like a ghost without any sense of existence.

An enthusiastic half-grown girl in the village reminded Cui Song worriedly: Isn't this son of a ghost lowering his head (a harmful witchcraft)?You have to be careful.

Cui Song couldn't help the black line.According to the law of the Han Dynasty, tattooing is corporal punishment. The so-called tattooing face is not born with ugly birthmarks, but tattooed on the face.Except for a few tribes who have this miraculous custom, in ancient times, it was generally a symbol of sinners.

For example, Yingbu, whose real name was Yingbu in the time of Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty, was stabbed in the face because he violated the laws of Qin.

This boy was tortured by ink at a young age, and the female Qiang people knew little about the punishment of the Han people, so they regarded the tattoo on his face as natural, as a punishment from God, and avoided him.

Although the tattooed face is a bit pervasive, Cui Song has never seen any Shamat in modern times, and the terrifying black lines on Ma Yulang's face can't arouse his inner fluctuations at all.As for Guo Jia, it is normal to have no prejudice against a young man who was brutally tortured for family crimes at a young age.As a result, the boy surnamed Ma came more frequently.

The situation of other tribes is indeed as Guo Jia expected - a month ago, the Baidi tribe was in chaos.Originally cheated the leader of the Bai, the deputy leader of the Bai who won the leadership of the tribe was poisoned by his cronies without warning.And when the tribe fell into chaos, and the white leader who was imprisoned by the white deputy leader wanted to take the opportunity to regain his power, a powerful team of orioles followed, quickly suppressed the rebellious army, and occupied the mountain.

The white leader was killed by an arrow in the chaos, and the new Huang Que counted the surviving clansmen and integrated them into his team.

The Baidi tribe, which was supposed to decline, has more than doubled in size, attracting the attention of the surrounding tribes.

After investigation, other tribes all know that the "yellow sparrow" who swallowed the Baidi tribe is not someone else, but the former deputy leader of the Baidi tribe who once united with foreign tribes to take away their own mountains and cut off half of their tribe's troops. Rong.

Cui Song once heard Bai Mi mention a thing or two about Bai Rong's deeds.And according to Bai Mi's confession, the reason why Bai Di's high-level executives are so afraid of Guo Jia is that Bai Rong's successful rebellion was actually facilitated by Guo Jia.

Thinking of Guo Jia's affirmative statement two months ago that "the Baidi tribe will experience great changes", Cui Song couldn't help wondering if Guo Jia was responsible for this great change.

Especially... not long after Bai Rong occupied Beishan, he sent Xu Zhuo, who was trapped in the village, to the female Qiang tribe.

When the situation of the Baidi tribe settled down, Yuanniang followed Guo Jia's suggestion and created chaos in the village, keeping all the children behind closed doors and strengthening the patrol in the village.

The next day, the female Qiang people smashed a stone half the height of a person with great fanfare, and gathered the young men to go to the Zags to ask for an explanation.

When Yang sent a letter to inquire, the female Qiang kept silent, and only replied a letter with a strong attitude, warning Yang not to make peace for the Zags, otherwise he would be the enemy of the female Qiang.

The anger of the female Qiang people could not be truer, so Yang also had an idea in his mind, and simply used the name of trade exchanges to invite the female Qiang people to Yang's tribe.

Unexpectedly, Yuanniang refused, and the Yang family had no choice but to send their own clansmen to visit the female Qiang people with a load of goods.

Compared with the past, the female Qiang people are much more indifferent to the people of the Yang family.This made the always arrogant Yang people a little unaccustomed and even annoyed.But at the same time, they became more and more puzzled by the situation of the female Qiang.

When he learned that the Baidi people who had reintegrated into a large clan also sent people to visit, the person in charge of the Yang family couldn't help being surprised. Unite and prepare for revenge.

The person in charge of the Yang family couldn't sit still anymore, and continued to inquire. It took a lot of effort to spell out the "truth" from a few words.

It turned out that the Zags were ambitious, not only intending to seize the absolute right to speak in Xiling, but also setting traps, almost destroying the next generation of the female Qiang people.

Thinking that the turmoil of the female Qiang people these days actually came from a stone they got from the Zags, and that the Baidi people are said to have suffered a lot of dark losses. Come to see if there is anything unusual about interacting with the Zags.

The Yang family has always been the trading center of the Xiling tribes, and has business dealings with all the tribes. No matter how fierce and withdrawn the Zags are, they still need to exchange materials. Naturally, they have done several transactions with the Yang family.

Thinking that his own tribe had also received things from the Zags, and wondered if there was evil poison in them, the person in charge of Yang's face turned green, and immediately repaired a letter and sent it to the leader. Such equipment is very suspicious.

Without hesitation, the Yang family immediately expressed to the female Qiang people their willingness to form an alliance against Zags.

So far, the alliance has been successfully formed. Facing the powerful and vigorous Zags, the Qiang women finally have the strength to resist.

Cui Song, who knew the inside story, just wanted to write a big "convincing" word to Guo Jia.The twists and turns of the ancients are indeed beyond his comprehension by a modern person. It is obvious that only the female Qiang people were "poisoned" by Zags, and the Baidi people did not come to the female Qiang for the purpose of forming an alliance...how come both of them ended up Volunteering to form an alliance with the Nuqiang tribe, and get rid of the Zags soon?

Yes, when the Yang family came to the Nuqiang tribe, there was no alliance between the Nuqiang tribe and the Baidi people at all.But the strange thing is that after the Yang family successfully formed an alliance with the female Qiang people, Yuanniang wrote an ordinary letter of greeting under the guidance of Guo Jia... The new leader of the Baidi tribe also stated in the reply Would you like to form an alliance with the Qiang women and destroy the Zags together?

That night, Cui Song, who was full of doubts, managed to fall into a dream. In the dream, he asked another self, but the other party smiled and did not answer. He only replied "It's just a falsehood", and listed a few modern white wolf purses The company's case, from the field of psychological tactics to the economic field, talks about the use of "borrowing".

Cui Song, who never expected that he would have another modern economics course: ...

After Cui Song had a headache and finished another "introductory course" he said, and the winter solstice was approaching, everyone in the village put on thick fur coats, opened the jars of pickles stored in autumn, cut off the bacon hanging on the beams, and satiated their stomachs. three days.

When the mountain stream froze, the Qiang women formally launched an attack on the Zags. They first set up an ambush on the road where the Zags often plundered, and took advantage of the terrain to stop a small group of Zags.

There were about 20 people in this team. As looters, they were tough, but they couldn't stand up to the difference in numbers. Even if they were not completely defeated, they were blocked in the mountain stream, unable to advance or retreat.

At the same time, Yuan Niang, Bai Rong, and the deputy commanders of the Yang family each led a strong team of their own clan, and went straight to the Zags' base camp from three directions.

The female Qiang who chose the right path and made a big show were quickly discovered by the Zags and sent corresponding troops to intercept them.Not long after, Yang's men approached the Zags' camp, and the two sides started a fierce fight.

The rest of the Bai clan chose the most remote and difficult mountain road.

When Bai's advance troops climbed over the cliff and stood on a high place overlooking the camp below, the battle below was already in full swing.

Although the Zags were fierce, they never thought that the female Qiang people would join forces with the Yang family, let alone that they would have the courage to brave the harsh wind and snow to attack the camp. They were caught off guard and fell into a passive position. trend.

When the camp sent another team to go out to support, and let the remaining strong men of the clan concentrate on the gate of the camp, the Baidi people on the top of the mountain were gearing up, knowing that this was the best time to attack.

Unexpectedly, Guo Jia who came with him said indifferently: "Wait a little longer."

Seeing doubts on the faces of the clansmen, Bai Rong made a final decision: "It's according to Mr."

Not long after, the Yang clan retreated steadily.The leader of the Yang family saw that the situation was not good, so he hurriedly ordered people to beat the copper pot and ordered the troops to withdraw.

At this moment, Guo Jia stood up and said, "Attack."

Members of the Bai clan wore armor and walked down the steep peak.

After about a cup of tea, the Bai clan won a complete victory and took all the Zags camp.

When the good news came, Guo Jia's eyebrows were slightly relaxed, and he looked at Cui Song, who shrunk into a spherical shape, and saw him squatting in the corner, looking at the snow-capped mountain wall for some unknown reason.

Guo Jia walked over: "Brother Cui, we should go."

Cui Song came back to his senses, tightened the fur on his body and slowly got up.

He is not a person who is afraid of the cold, but he is used to wearing tight down jackets and sweaters in modern times. The warmth of ancient clothes...is really not flattering.

On the way down the mountain, Guo Jia asked, "What was Brother Cui looking at just now?"

Cui Song has nothing to hide: "It's extremely boring, and it just so happens that there is an ant nest on that mountain wall, so I took a closer look."

He didn't expect to see the legendary killer in this kind of place - army ants. Although it is only a subspecies, it is very rare to see this kind of ants in winter in non-tropical regions.

The two followed the Bai clan to the main tent of the inner camp. The Zags prisoners tied into rice dumplings knelt in several rows in the snow. Guo Jia walked straight to Bai Rong without even looking at it.

Bai Rong pointed to a small felt bag next to the main tent, and said in a low voice, "The person Mr. is looking for is inside."

Guo Jia opened the curtain and entered, Cui Song followed, and saw a haggard old man with white beard and hair sitting on the couch in the tent.

Guo Jia lowered the curtain and stopped three feet away from the old man.

Immediately, Liao Pao knelt down.
