After hearing Jin Zhun's words, brothers Jin Ming and Jin Kang were surprised.
Brother, what are you talking about? Aren’t we just bastards ourselves?
Why do you want to scold Hu people?
What are you going to do?
"Brother, what do you mean by this?" Jin Ming heard something unusual from these words.
"Brother, aren't we also barbarians?" Jin Kang looked confused.
After Jin Zhun heard this, he shook his head vigorously.
"A hero like Liu Yuanhai has spent ten years of hard work, but he has only reached the present result. From this, we can see that this world is indeed not something that barbarians can touch!"
"If we want to make achievements, we must draw a clear line between ourselves and the barbarians, and turn our hearts to the royal way. Only then can we achieve prosperity for our family!"
Jin Zhun's words made the two brothers Jin Ming even more puzzled.
They didn't know what weird things Jin Zhun was going to do this time.
Their hearts were high and they were really worried.
"But brother, our ancestors have been members of the Huns for generations. How do we draw a clear line?" Jin Kang asked with an embarrassed look.
"Huh! Ridiculous!" Jin Zhun was very dissatisfied and snorted coldly.
"My family, the Jin family, is obviously the descendant of Jin Shang, the great official of the Chu State in the Spring and Autumn Period. I am of the same lineage as the King of Chu. I have the same surname of Mi and the descendant of Ji Lian. I am the descendant of the Yellow Emperor. What does it have to do with those barbarians!"
When Jin Zhun spoke, his face was serious and solemn.
When his two younger brothers saw this, they both fell into deep self-doubt.
My Jin family actually has such a powerful ancestor, why didn't I know before?
Or is this simply made up by Jin Zhun himself?
"Brother, why haven't I heard about this?" Jin Kang asked cautiously.
"Oh, then it's not too late to know from now on." Jin Zhun glanced at him and said slowly.
"Brother, the Jingchu you are talking about is in the Jingzhou area. We have been in Bingzhou for generations, so it is a bit too far." Another brother, Jin Ming, reminded.
"I've already thought about it, oh no, I've figured it out a long time ago. We and the Jin family in Xihe are both from the same clan, and our ancestor is Jin Qiang, the Marquis of Fenyang who followed the Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty to fight!"
"Xihe Jin family?"
"Marquis of Fenyang Jin Qiang?"
Unlike Jin Zhun, brothers Jin Ming and Jin Kang do not like reading.
They had heard about the powerful Jin family in Xihe County. After all, they were only a hundred miles apart, so they were very close.
As for Fenyang Hou Jinqiang, the two brothers had never heard of him at all.
However, judging from Jin Zhun's tone, this Fenyang Marquis, who had made military exploits for Liu Bang, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, must be a powerful figure.
"Yes, it is Jin Qiang, the Marquis of Fenyang. Our lineage avoided trouble in Northern Xinjiang because of Wang Mang's rebellion. Now we have finally found out and identified our ancestor. It is God's will!" Jin Zhun said very seriously.
"Brother, what's the use of finding an ancestor for us now?"
"That's right, brother, no matter how powerful this ancestor is, he can't come here to help us defend the city."
"What's more, if we want to recognize this ancestor, it's hard to say whether the Xihe Jin family can accept it?"
Brothers Jin Ming and Jin Kang both thought their brother might be crazy.
"Why doesn't it matter! Now that the Hulu are no longer available, if we want to protect ourselves, we must rely on the Han people!"
When Jin Zhun said this, he glanced viciously at the Huns rushing out of the city.
"Brother, what do you want to do?"
"Hurry up and summon the Han lords in Chang'an City and the dock owners outside the city. Tell them that I, Jin Zhun, have already planned to liquidate the crimes of the Hu people. As long as they help me suppress the Hu people, they will be rewarded heavily. Chang'an's treasury No matter what you do, you won’t hesitate!”
Jin Zhun said.
"Brother, what are you doing!" Jin Ming was immediately frightened.
There are hundreds of thousands of Xiongnu and Qiang Hu tribesmen inside and outside Chang'an.
It is definitely very dangerous for Jin Zhun to do this.
"Alas, as long as Liu Yao is here, these barbarians will not be able to be used by us."
"Almost everyone in Guanzhong has someone in their family who was killed by the Huns. Now I give them a chance to take revenge and earn their service. Wouldn't it be the best of both worlds?"
"In this way, Liu Yao lost more than 100,000 barbarian helpers, and I got more help from the people in Guanzhong. There is no need to worry about the big thing failing!"
Jin Zhun's words were like a thunderbolt, knocking brothers Jin Ming and Jin Kang on the spot.
After a long time, these two people finally came to their senses.
"Brother, there are at least 100,000 Huns here!" Jin Ming stammered.
"There are more than a hundred thousand Han people in Guanzhong, several times more than the Hulu people!" Jin Zhun said that there was no shortage of manpower.
"Brother, aren't you afraid of chaos in Chang'an?"
"A big chaos? Isn't it already a big chaos? Why not take this opportunity to eradicate the roots." Jin Zhun said fiercely.
Brothers Jin Ming and Jin Kang wanted to continue asking, but were interrupted by Jin Zhun's rough wave.
"Time waits for no one, there is no time to waste!"
"Immediately send people out of the city to pass on my military orders. All the powerful and common people in Guanzhong who meet the barbarians fleeing Chang'an can be killed!"
"Anyone who sends the heads of barbarians to the Xihua Gate in Chang'an will be rewarded with money and silk worth 100,000 yuan, and those with official positions will all be promoted to the third class!"
Jin Zhun immediately threw out his huge reward.
Jin Ming and Jin Kang both turned pale with horror.
"Brother,"
As soon as Jin Ming opened his mouth, he was interrupted by Jin Zhun's angry glare.
"I have made up my mind. Anyone who dares to mess up my important matter will be engaged in military law!"
Jin Ming immediately shrank his neck and swallowed his words of dissuasion.
Jin Kang next to him, after thinking for a while, said.
"Brother, these Huns and Jin people, oh no, they are Han people, how can we distinguish them?"
The question raised by Jin Kang does have some pain points.
The vast majority of the Huns are no different from the Han people in appearance. They are not like the Jiehu people in the Western Regions. They are simply indistinguishable.
"This is simple."
"Every head sent here will be recognized as a Hulu!"
Jin Zhun said loudly.
"Wouldn't that mean many people would be killed unjustly?" Jin Kang asked.
After all, the reward Jin Zhun offered was too high.
Jin Kang had no doubt that many people would be killed unjustly.
"Hmph, so what! As long as the people who kill Hu Zhifeng in this pass are together, the Han people will be our back-up, and they will never see Liu Yao again."
"The Han people are so numerous that we can rest easy!"
Jin Zhun didn't care whether the dead were real Huns or fake Huns.
As long as there is chaos in Guanzhong and Han people and Hu people fight each other, his Chang'an will get help.
"How does brother plan to respond to Liu Yu?" Jin Ming asked again.
"Hmph, a mere Xujue wants to bribe me!" Jin Zhun said coldly.
"Chang'an is in my hands, I can split the soil and seal the territory, I can do it myself."
"Guanzhong has the qualifications to be a king. Once Liu Yao is defeated, there is no need for Qingzhou thieves."
Hearing Jin Zhun's words, Jin Ming's heart sank. This was really arrogant.
"Go to Tongguan in person and hold on. As for the Qingzhou thieves in Luoyang, I will send someone to inform them, so you can leave them alone." Jin Zhun ordered.
In the evening of the same day, Jin Zhun sent envoys to disperse and announce to the powerful dock masters in Guanzhong his order to intercept and kill the Hulu with a heavy reward.
Moreover, these envoys in Chang'an City also told everyone that Jin Zhun was now ready to reward everyone at the cost of emptying Chang'an's treasury.
Such a generous reward makes many powerful dock owners very excited.
They led their troops one after another to intercept and kill the fleeing Huns along the way.
At first, they only intercepted and killed the weak Huns and Qianghu, and later they gradually ambushed and intercepted the slightly larger Huns.
By the next day, many powerful people had united and blocked several key routes for fleeing north. Anyone passing by, no matter what kind of Hulu or helpless refugee, would be counted as a target. The Hulu was beheaded and taken to Chang'an to receive the reward.
In just two days, 10,000 Hulu heads were piled up outside the Xihua Gate in Chang'an.
As for how many real Hulu there are among them, it is unknown.
Faced with the crazy killing outside Chang'an City, a large number of Han refugees poured into Chang'an City, including some weak Wubao owners.
If they stayed outside the city, they would most likely be beheaded by powerful powerful men as barbarians to receive the reward.
Therefore, the more blood flowed outside Chang'an City, the more proud Jin Zhun was inside the city.

Sizhou, Luoyang.
Liu Yan, who is based in Luoyang, has been waiting for Guanzhong's response.
He has prepared 20,000 troops and horses. As long as Jin Zhun accepts the conditions, he will immediately rush into Tongguan and control the key to the pass.
However, Liu Yan sent people to check for several days, but there was never any feedback from Chang'an.
Just when Liu Yan was already waiting a little impatiently, the defenders from the front suddenly came to report.
"General, Jin Zhun from Guanzhong has sent someone to deliver a message!"
When Liu Yan heard this, he immediately said with expectation.
"Finally here! Where is the envoy? Please come in quickly!"
Regarding the instructions of Liu Yan, the governor of Sizhou, the Han military general who came to report the news did not respond indifferently. Instead, he answered with some questions.
"General, no messenger is coming with us."
Liu Yan, the governor of Sizhou, looked surprised.
"No messenger came with us? Didn't you just say that Jin Zhun sent someone to deliver the message? How come there was no messenger?"
Liu Yan was very puzzled.
"General, although Jin Zhun sent someone to deliver the message, he did not take a step into Guancheng. He only shouted messages into the city from outside Guancheng across the moat." The general said.
What does it mean?
Not only was Liu Yan, the governor of Sizhou, confused, but none of his close aides understood what was going on.
"Do you mean that Jin Zhun sent someone to shout from a distance?" Liu Yan, the governor of Sizhou, asked in disbelief.
"Yes." The general said again.
"You were shouting from the air, what were you shouting?" Liu Yan, the governor of Sizhou, frowned tightly.
"The people sent by Jin Zhun shouted, saying that he has mobilized all the heroes in Guanzhong and is preparing to kill the Hu barbarians who are causing trouble in the Central Plains. If we intend to kill Hu, we should immediately send troops to attack Pingyang so that the barbarians and Liu Yao cannot take care of both the head and the tail." The general said.
"That's all?" Liu Yan, the governor of Sizhou, asked.
"General, I didn't even dare to say a word."
"You didn't say anything else?" Liu Yan was still a little unwilling.
"There is nothing else." The general was very sure.
Suddenly, Liu Yan, the governor of Sizhou, slapped the table and stood up angrily.
"Jin Zhun, the traitor, is really abominable! There is no sign of surrender, it is clear that he wants to separate Guanzhong!"
Liu Yan said angrily.
"All the heroes who kill the Hulu are just excuses."
"How could he kill a Huru after he himself was a Huru who herded sheep?"
"Do you want to use such childish methods to trick us into killing Liu Yao for him!?"
Liu Yan, the governor of Sizhou, simply didn't believe Jin Zhun's words.
He guessed that it must be that Jin Zhun's situation had improved and he was no longer afraid of the Huns King Liu Yao, so he made such an insincere 'speech from a distance'.
"Somebody come!"
Liu Yan shouted loudly.
"General, what are your orders?" A general immediately responded.
"Immediately pass on my military order. All the troops have a feast today. I will lead my men to attack Tongguan. When I catch Jin Zhun, I will ask him what he means!"
Sizhou Governor Liu Yan's hatred for the Huns was not just a simple national feud, but a family feud in which his ancestors were murdered made him have little trust in the Huns.
"This must be Jin Zhun's trick. I want to conquer Tongguan personally and take a good look at what Jin Zhun is going to do!" Liu Yan, the governor of Sizhou, said to the left and right.
"General, think twice! Tongguan is so dangerous that one man can't break it. We only have 30,000 soldiers. The total number of troops we can actually use is only 20,000. How can we attack Tongguan?" An aide advised anxiously.
"Now that Liu Yao has crossed the river at Puban, the chaos in Guanzhong is a God-sent opportunity."
Although Liu Yan, the governor of Sizhou, was a little angry, his decision just now was not a simple impulsive one.
"When I was in Jinyang before, I missed the opportunity and lost the opportunity to surprise Pingyang."
"This time, we must not miss it again."
"General, your Majesty's previous order was to defend Luoyang. If you send out all your troops to attack Tongguan, wouldn't you be ignoring the safety of Luoyang?" Another aide came out to persuade.
"If we just mobilize the troops and return without success, then that's it. If the Hulu take the opportunity to leave Tongguan eastward, I'm afraid Luoyang will be in danger!"
Faced with everyone's advice, Liu Yan, the governor of Sizhou, remained unmoved.
"Your Majesty, I will send someone to explain."
"Now the people sent by Jin Zhun can still come to deliver the message, indicating that Tongguan is still in Jin Zhun's hands."
