Today, there are only three or two big cats and kittens left in the Southern Barbarians. The two strongest armies, the Vine Armor Army, have been wiped out long ago. Later, although the Vine Armor produced in the past few years was used, the Vine Armor Army was once again formed. A small part, but it is difficult to correct its shortcomings.
This kind of army with great shortcomings has already known its shortcomings, and it is also facing the god-level commanders of the Jin army. The final result can be imagined.
There is only one army left, the beast army, but beasts are beasts after all, and in the final analysis, they are still controlled by people.
In the battle of conquering Shu, in order to deal with this beast army, Li Guang, Gao Jineng and many other long-range warriors were gathered together by Li Jing. As the saying goes, you are not afraid of thieves stealing, but you are afraid of being missed. You didn't succeed once, but you were watched all the time. In the end, it was difficult for the Deer King to change his fate.
The people who controlled the beast were all dead, and the beast army naturally turned into birds and dispersed.
In addition, all the masters of the Southern Barbarians have been lost. It may be unfair to use the word "lost" to describe them. But at least, the masters of Nanman no longer belong to Nanman.
The masters of the Southern Barbarians were fighting on the front line of the battlefield in Shu. These people were very lucky. Some of them were captured alive by the Jin army, and some of them surrendered to the Jin army.
Therefore, there are actually only three or two big cats and kittens left in Nanman now.
Among the remaining leaders and cave masters of the Southern Barbarians, most of them, including Shu Nanda, Gao Shengtai, and Hou Andu, belonged to the surrender faction. They had already surrendered to Liu Che once before. Even if they surrendered to the Jin army once, they could accept it and it would be easier to accept it.
Duan Siping and Mu Zengyiyi belong to the neutral camp, neither agreeing nor opposing.
The Jin army is powerful and stubbornly resists. The only way out is self-destruction. To put it more seriously, after the southern barbarians have been weakened step by step, they don't even have the strength to resist.
People like Duan Siping and Mu Zeng had the intention to surrender from the bottom of their hearts, and they had seriously considered it. After all, these people are rational and know which path should be taken and which path should not be taken.
However, people like Duan Siping and Mu Zeng had too many relatives who died at the hands of the Jin army, and they had deep hatred for each other.
Therefore, they were in a dilemma. In the end, they simply stopped working together and became a neutral party, leaving the decision-making power to others.
If others' final decision is to fight, then the two of them also decide to fight, even if they die without regrets. But if others finally decide to surrender, then they will not continue to resist to the end and choose to surrender!
In the final analysis, although these two people have a deep hatred against the Jin army, in the hearts of people like Duan Siping, family members cannot be said to be unimportant, but they are certainly not that important. Relatives cannot be said to occupy a large proportion in their hearts, but it is certainly difficult to become the most important proportion.
Although Mu Zeng is different from Duan Siping, he is a person who cares about the people. People like this are indeed a blessing to the people, but in the end it is themselves and even those close to them who suffer.
People like Mu Zeng know what resistance will bring to the Southern Barbarian people! Therefore, even if there is deep hatred, the deepest thought in his heart is still that he does not want to bring harm to the entire Southern Barbarians because of his own selfishness.
Of course, there are resistance factions that are determined to the end. This is certainly not impossible. Since there are surrender factions and neutral factions, there are definitely resistance factions, but they are relatively few.
The representative of the resistance faction was Meng Huo, who was born in China.
However, there was also a deep hatred between Meng Huo and the Jin army, but this one did not have as much hatred as Mu Zeng thought. For him, it was just revenge and revenge.
Although Meng Huo was a staunch resister, it was clear that the surrender faction was stronger, and the influence of the Nanman Saints was indeed quite great. Since one of the two Saints had already entered the palace as a concubine, Some people who had a good relationship with Meng Huo also fell into the capitulation faction.
It is also true that the young men of the Southern Barbarians have been beaten in recent years. If the battle with the Jin army continues, all the sons of the Southern Barbarians will die. Whether there will be any Southern Barbarians in the future is another matter. No one wants to be the eternal sinner of the Southern Barbarians.
Therefore, when the existing leaders of the Southern Barbarians came together, they almost showed a one-sided trend.
The few resistance factions represented by Meng Huo, even if they were determined to resist, were still too small in number. Compared with their voices, they could not compete with the large number of surrender factions.
In the final analysis, this kind of discussion, although it does look at which side is more reasonable and more convincing, it also looks at which side has the louder voice and which side can suppress the other side. live!
But in this aspect, Meng Huo, who had a smaller number of people, was at an absolute disadvantage.
Therefore, in this discussion, the talk of surrender among the Southern Barbarians occupied the mainstream.
Of course, although the Southern Barbarians at this time had no remaining strength to resist the Jin army, most of them finally chose to surrender under the general trend.
But even if they are willing to surrender, it is certainly impossible to surrender without meaning. Even if you are willing to surrender, there should be an explanation for how to surrender?
Even if the Southern Barbarians have little resistance now, the cruel geographical environment of the Southern Barbarians is here. If they are unwilling to surrender, the Jin army will still have to spend a lot of effort to regain the Southern Barbarians. Once they surrendered, it would be equivalent to the Jin army saving a lot of strength and energy for no reason.
Therefore, even relying on this, the Southern Barbarians should use this to obtain sufficient benefits from the Jin army. It would be strange if they surrendered like this without seeking any benefit from Li Xiang.
At this time, Li Xiang also arrived in Yizhou. Therefore, the next step was to select a representative to negotiate with Li Xiang and strive to obtain the greatest benefits for them on this basis.
At the same time, Nanman also sent people to contact Concubine Chen, who was already Li Xiang's concubine. No matter how much she said, her identity as a Nanman saint could not be changed, and she always had an inseparable relationship with Nanman.
If we make contact with him, it will definitely be very beneficial to Nanman's subsequent negotiations.
Pillow style is useful at all times. If we can make good use of the pillow wind, maybe we can maximize the benefits in the next negotiation with Nanman.
