Dong Hu took the drink from Kuwai and sighed.

"Dong Gu."

"What is the meaning of the existence of Beiheqiang?

"It is the leader of Beiheqiang... For example, your descendants have been kings of Beiheqiang for generations, and they can last for thousands of years."

"Or, the lives of the people of Beiheqiang are gradually getting better, becoming so gentle, knowledgeable, and rich in life?"

Dong Gu frowned and said in confusion: "Sir, is there any difference between the two?"

Dong Hu frowned and said, "The Central Plains Dynasty, the Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties, has not been a dynasty for thousands of years, but there are a dynasty in the world that exists for thousands of years... Or there was such a tribe ten thousand years ago, and it has continued to this day."

If Kuwai was unaware of anything, Yan Zhong and Dong Gu were all shocked, and Yan Zhong even exclaimed.

"This is impossible!"

Dong Hu sighed and said, "Let's give an example. If there is only one fish in a water tank or a pool of water, the fish will be very lonely, but it will live for a long time..."

"But what if this fish is put into the river and sea? It may not be able to survive for a day. There are too many fish bigger than it, and there are too many dangers. What about this fish? It needs to learn to hide, it needs to learn to swim faster, it needs to learn to be more fierce, it needs to work hard to learn how to survive in a cruel world."

"But what about that lonely fish? Every day it thinks about how brilliant the outside world is, about how carefree the fish like itself, but it doesn't know how cruel and bloody the world is. Although it is lonely, it thinks all the beauty...at least most of the time, it thinks so."

Dong Hu looked at Yan Zhong with a frown slightly and smiled: "Sir, don't believe it, it's because he lives in the sea of ​​fighting each other, not the peaceful pond."

Dong Hu pointed to the south and smiled and said, "On the plateau, all the way south, there is a Xiangxiong Kingdom, which is a country that is even longer than the Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties."

Dong Hu looked at Dong Gu, who was a little solemn again.

"The more closed the kingdom, the longer the country, the king's descendants can continue from generation to generation. Correspondingly, a thousand years ago and a thousand years later, people's lives will not change much, just like that quiet pond, a hundred years, a thousand years, is still that pond."

"If the kingdom is not closed, or open, the kingdom will change every moment, and some changes cannot be seen, but that is changing, and a little bit changes. Year by year, the former kingdom has become another way."

"But, just like the fish put into the sea, although it is dead, its descendants are smarter, more aggressive, more fierce, and bigger, and the fish that has lived for a long time is still the same."

Dong Hu smiled.

"So, do you want a tribe with a thousand-year-old descendants, or do you want a... a tribe or tribe is gone, but someone else has your bloodline in your body, this person may be smarter and stronger than you, and you and your tribe have long disappeared."

Dong Gu breathed rapidly, and he understood Dong Hu's words, but his descendants were gone, and Beiheqiang was gone. Is everything meaningful?

"The plateau is a treasure land, a treasure land like a paradise. The Han people cannot get there. Although life is a bit hard, people are very simple, and the leader is easy to manage. Even if the descendants are too bastard and cruel, just like the Lang Meng. If he didn't take the initiative to enter Lintao, how could he evaporate? If he didn't provoke Lintao and Baima Qiang, who would take care of him?"

"No one pays attention to him, and his tribe is just a child who has suffered silently. Perhaps the wolf Meng will continue to be crazy until he dies of old age. If it were any aristocratic family in the Central Plains or any tribe in the grassland, his wolf Meng will have been chopped up and fed to the dog!"

"So, you have to have a choice, choose to follow others into the Central Plains and become the fish that has entered the sea, or take your people away from the Central Plains and return to the plateau, or even leave the Big and Big Yu Valley to the south, becoming a fish that is paradise."

"One is to choose a tribe royal family or your tribe, and the other is to choose a tribe. It is impossible to choose one of the two. No one in the world has ever possessed all good things. For example, when you were born, Beihe Qiang had become a slave tribe of Shaodang Qiang, for example, you don't have the power..."

Dong Hu reached out and rubbed Kuwa's head and smiled at her.

"Do you know why we want to be our woman?"

"Because we like plateaus, because we want to be a fish in that paradise."

"only……"

"There are always some helplessness and difficulty in giving up in the world. When we get old, we will die with Kuwai and become the eternal fish."

"A thousand-year-old toast, a hundred-year-old dynasty, we would rather be a thousand-year-old toast."

Kuwa seemed to understand his words, nodded repeatedly, and his small braid on his head looked very beautiful.

Dong Hu pulled Kuwai up, patted Dong Gu on the shoulder again, and grinned.

"If Beiheqiang is willing to surrender to us, as long as we don't die, we will go to the end, even if you die, as long as you have children, or children you recognize, we will give you a thousand-year-old toast."

Dong Hu patted his shoulder again, holding a woman who was much smaller than him with one hand...

"Kuwa, let's tell you, the Xiangxiong Kingdom is amazing, building a house on a very high mountain..."

Seeing Dong Hu and Kuwa leaving while talking and laughing, Yan Zhong shook his head with a wry smile. He didn't know if there was a ten thousand-year-old Xiangxiong tribe on the plateau, but he couldn't justify that there was only one fish in a pool, and there were countless fish in the sea. Which one could live longer?

There is no need to think about this, but the old man knew that Dong Gu, who had been silent, believed it. Since he believed it, he became a tribe of that boy.

Yan Zhong shook his head secretly and stood up, and Dong Gu suddenly spoke.

"Sir, is it trustworthy?"

When Dong Hu was not by his side, Dong Hu spoke the word "Sir". Yan Zhong smiled bitterly in his heart, but only a faint smile on his face.

"If you were a tiger baby, would you marry a bitter baby?"

"What do you think of Huwa for the Ganlang Qiang tribe?"

Yan Zhong smiled and patted Dong Zhong on the shoulder, and left the tent with his hands behind his back.

...

Dong Hu and Kuwa were wandering in the camp to check if there were loopholes in the camp station, but he was obviously worried. Sun Niu, the supervisor, was more competent than he thought. Seeing Sun Niu using a small bamboo pole to teach someone a lesson, he didn't come forward to disturb him. Xiaojiu, the scout camp, came over and muttered in his ear...

"What a fool."

...

"Oh by the way, Yuzhong, has the situation in Warriors City been proven?"

Xiaojiu nodded and said, "After the loss of Jincheng Pass, the people of the Warrior City in Yuzhong and the people of Warrior City fled, either fled to Jincheng Pass to join the rebels, or fled elsewhere. Perhaps because his elder brother led a thousand cavalry to defeat Yan Xing, Bian Zhang stationed eight thousand troops in the two cities."

Xiaojiu hesitated: "Looking at the large number of thieves, they have an extremely fatal shortcoming."

Dong Hu was stunned and smiled and said, "Tell me, look."

Xiaojiu said: "As a great chaos, the people's escape was not cultivated, and the rebels' cattle and sheep could not stay in the city for a long time. Xiaojiu felt that they were still hesitating now, but they would definitely not last long and would definitely fight with us outside the city."

“Is there insufficient food?”

Dong Hu nodded silently and agreed to Xiaojiu's words. The northwest was short of food, and almost every household would have some cattle and sheep subsidies for insufficient food. In a big mess, the cultivated land would definitely be abandoned, and cattle and sheep would not be able to stay in the city for a long time. If Dong Hu was not defeated and Yuzhong, there would definitely be big problems in Warriors City.

Dong Hu thought for a while and suddenly asked, "Xiaojiu, do you think... if we were farming outside Yuzhong City, would they suddenly break out of the city while farming?"

"ah?"

Xiaojiu didn't expect that after he said this, he was stunned for a moment. At this moment, Yan Zhong, who was walking over, spoke.

"I will definitely break out of the city, but Zhang Hui will not leave the city at the beginning after Huwa cultivated some fields."

Dong Hu nodded and smiled, "In the chaos, the people dare not farm. Even if they farm, they are worried that we will rob it. But if we farm and they come to rob it, then there will be no problem."

Dong Hu turned his head and looked at Jiuer, and smiled and said, "Notify all squadron leaders, brigade commanders, camp commanders, and afternoon military consultations."

"promise!"

Dong Hu waved his hand, Xiaojiu left with his fists, Yan Zhong seemed to be bowing his head and hesitating about something...

"Huwa, Uncle Zhong may be... leaving."

Dong Hu nodded slightly and said this to him was not surprised.

"The world is unstable, and it has been affected by disasters for years. In addition, the taxes borne by the people, the labor service is heavy, poor scholars and military personnel have no channels to rise, and the public is full of grievances... It is normal to have some rebellion."

"But Zhong Shu is a famous scholar in Liangzhou, so let's not mention the loyalty of the imperial court. As Huwa and Dong Gu said, the Central Plains are not a sparsely populated plateau, nor a pool of water in the paradise, but a changing sea."

"The world is not the world of one person, and those with virtue live in it."

"The world is constantly changing. Only by constantly adapting to changes, following public opinion, and becoming the virtuous person of the world can he become the master of the world."

"The way of heaven reduces the excess and makes up for the deficiency; the way of man reduces the deficiency to serve the excess."

"Give more opportunities for poor scholars, reduce taxes and labor, and make every ordinary person as much as possible to have land to cultivate and support themselves, and make justice for the people as much as possible. Those who violate the law are punished, and those who kill people die..."

Dong Hu smiled at Yan Zhong with a solemn expression.

"Uncle Zhong is a famous scholar in Liangzhou. Uncle Zhong thinks... Beigong Boyu, Shaodang Lao Wang, Han Sui, Bian Zhang, Li Wenhou, etc., are they virtuous people?"

"Will they give poor scholars the opportunity to govern the world?"

"Will they share their own or countless wealthy families with people who have nothing?"

"Will they really restrain the soldiers from robbing the people's food, cattle, sheep, and fields?"

"Will they teach the people to read and recognize etiquette?"

"Will they give the people fairness and justice if they don't obey the law?"

Dong Hu shook his head.

"They don't. They are just bad cabbage in this house in the world, and they are bad cabbages that have been broken first. Anyone who lives a life will eat the bad cabbage and throw it away first."

Yan Zhong looked solemn, and suddenly smiled, smiling happily.

"Tiger Was able to say these words, ten or hundreds of Yan Xing are not as good as you! But don't tell others about these words, they will kill you!"

Dong Hu couldn't help but smile.

"hehe……"

"If Uncle Zhong was a more pragmatic Xiliang person, if Uncle Zhong had not had moral character and a very similar mind, even if our Huwa rotted his words in his stomach, he would never say it."

He shook his head and sighed softly as he said that.

"Uncle Zhong is a smart person. He knows how dangers Dong Gu will face when he returns to Jinchengsai, and what situations you will face when you return. Of course, you must understand the intention of Huwa's saying these words, so why should you put yourself in danger?"

Yan Zhong looked at the heavily guarded camp and said Dong Hu's words in a daze.

"Tiger baby."
