In later generations, Sichuan has become a wealthy and prosperous resort, known as the land of abundance.
But at this time, the Sichuan-Sichuan region was still in the wilderness.
The Ba people are not bad, they are civilized people who were entrusted by the Zhou royal family... Those Shu people are amazing, they are tattooed, tough and good at fighting, they are the true sons of the mountains and forests.
Let the Qin people ride on their heads. It would be strange if they didn't resist!
This gave Xiong Wuliang the opportunity to intervene!
Xiong Wuliang smiled and asked insinuatingly: "Chuan Yong, I heard that the Chuan clan is a powerful clan in the country of Ba... Could it be that you are a member of the Chuan clan?"
Chuan Yong said honestly: "Reporting to the Lord, that's right."
"The last general is not talented, but he is the young patriarch of the Sichuan clan."
As soon as these words came out, Xiong Wuliang immediately looked at Zhao Hua in surprise!
No wonder Chuanyong, a 'lowly Ba', whose status in Qin was simply that of a Jew under Desan's rule - a real lower race... could actually become Qin's majestic General Lantian.
General Lan Tian’s status in Qin’s military circles is by no means low!
Presumably, the Qin State appointed Chuan Yong as a general to appease the Bashu people...
In the Ba Kingdom, the status of the Chuan family is equivalent to the three "Qu Jingzhao" clans in the Chu Kingdom, and they have strong strength and appeal in the local area.
If Chuan Yong could listen to Xiong Wuliang's words, lead the Ba people to cause trouble in the Bashu land, and cooperate with the rebellious Shu people... Qin's rule in the Bashu area would be in jeopardy.
…
Xiong Wuliang was silent for a moment, considered his words, and asked Chuan Yong: "If you defect to me, the Chuan clan will be retaliated by the Qin people. Have you ever thought about this?"
Chuan Yong lowered his eyebrows and said angrily: "The last general...the last general..."
Xiong Wuliang suddenly smiled and patted Chuan Yong on the shoulder: "I don't want to talk in circles anymore - you go back to Badi, and I can give you all assistance except directly sending troops to disrupt Qin's rule and win over independent!"
"When this is done, you will be King Ba!"
"What do you think?" Xiong Wuliang smiled and drew the pie skillfully.
Chuan Yong was stunned for a long time, he couldn't believe his ears.
King Ba? Even if King Ba is a puppet of the Chu people, he is still a king!
Chuan Yong's heart is pounding!
"General...well, I wonder what assistance you can give me?" Chuan Yong was extremely excited and somewhat incoherent.
Xiong Wuliang smiled: "Grain, grass, cloth, goods... I can support you."
"The armor and weapons left by the Qin people outside Wuguan are enough for you to arm tens of thousands of troops - you can use them at any time."
"In addition..." Xiong Wuliang summoned Qingyu Guard Huang Wu and said with a chuckle: "My Qingyu Guards are enough to provide you with intelligence support - don't doubt their ability. With Qingyu Guards assisting you, Qin You will be informed of all the movements of the soldiers in advance.”
"Finally, I will provide you with a general! He will guide you to train the army and fight against the Qin people!"
Chuan Yong was surprised and delighted, and was deeply shocked by Xiong Wuliang's generosity.
Xiong Wuliang finally added with a smile: "How about it? Why not give it a try? If the final result is not good, you can also bring your clan members to my fief. I will ensure that your Chuan clan has a foothold in the Chu Kingdom. "
Financial support, weapons assistance, intelligence sharing, military instructors...sound familiar?
This is how a certain country carried out a coup in South America!
The Sichuan clan already has great power and popularity in Badi, and the people of Bashu have long been willing to resist... Now with such strong assistance, it is enough to make the Qin people miserable!
Chuan Yong no longer hesitated - if he defeated King Dangba, he would have a way out if he lost. So why are you hesitating?
"General, I am willing to go through fire and water for the king! I will do whatever it takes!" Chuan Yong knelt on the ground and kowtowed, vowing to say.
Xiong Wuliang smiled, and summoned Yin Yu, the commander of the Black Feather Guards, and whispered a few words in Yin Yu's ear, and then said to Chuan Yong: "I have brought you a few highly skilled personal guards, enough Keep your life safe... This is my intention, General Sichuan must not refuse."
Although Chuan Yong cherished his life and feared death, he was not an idiot. He immediately understood that this so-called 'personal bodyguard' was actually a back-up arranged by Xiong Wuliang.
If Chuan Yong is diligent and conscientious, of course the Black Feather Guard can obey Chuan Yong's orders to assassinate political opponents and clear the way; but on the other hand, if Chuan Yong has any disobedience... this Black Feather Guard is a dead soldier. He kills people without blinking an eye.
"As for the generals I have arranged for you..." Xiong Wuliang said with a smile, "I have my own arrangements."
…
Hong Shitou, a thousand-man general, sat on a chariot, with flags fluttering in front and behind him, and advanced with the army's array.
Recently, he has been very proud.
In the Second Danyang War, which lasted an entire winter, the Chu army's most outstanding general was none other than the thousand-man general Hong Shitou.
First, they made a sneak attack with surprise troops, cutting off the Qin soldiers' baggage twice, and achieved their first success.
Then there is the first step to climb the city wall when raiding Wuguan...
These two feats, no matter which one is taken alone, are enough to make Hong Shitou straighten his back and feel proud.
Everyone knew in their hearts that with Hong Shitou's illustrious military exploits, it was impossible to continue to be a small general with a thousand men.
It should be noted that Marquis Quyang has always been generous with rewards for meritorious deeds - it is estimated that Hong Shitou will receive the huge reward he deserves when he returns to his fiefdom soon.
The soldiers of the New Army in Quyang are all very discerning. When they meet Hong Shitou these days, they no longer call him 'General Hong Qian', but rather ambiguously call him 'General Hong'. '...Obviously, everyone has already acquiesced in Hong Shitou's promotion.
A soldier hurried in the direction of Hong Shitou's chariot - from the iron crossbow on the soldier's body, it could be seen that he was a sergeant from the Lord's personal barracks.
"General Hong - the Lord has called you over." The soldier obviously knew Hong Shitou, who was in the limelight recently, and said to the latter, cupping his fists.
The surrounding soldiers looked at each other in confusion, with excited expressions on their faces, and exchanged tacit glances with each other.
Hong Shitou looked solemn, jumped down from the chariot, and ordered the thousand-man team under his command: "Continue marching. Don't disrupt the team while I am away."
After that, he followed the soldier and ran towards the front of the team, straight towards Xiong Wuliang's bronze chariot.
As soon as Hong Shitou left, there was a buzz and an explosion, and all the soldiers shouted excitedly——
"Coming! Coming!"
"General Hong is so prosperous this time..." Someone said enviously: "Tsk, tsk, the Lord personally summoned him!"
"It's normal - when General Hong ambushed the Qin army's baggage in the snow, after releasing his arrows, he charged ahead - I saw him kill six or seven Qin soldiers with my own eyes!"
"Yes...yes! When the Lord made a surprise attack on Wuguan, I followed General Hong Qian...ah no, behind General Hong! General Hong is indeed unstoppable!"
"I don't know how the Lord will reward General Hong..."
"It must be a heavy reward! Our Lord is always generous to heroes!"
"..."
