Chapter 444
Half a day later, the barbarian camp gradually quieted down.
"Send people to clean up the battlefield. Our army will temporarily stay here."
Huo Qubing did not intend to leave.
"Can you talk properly now? What's your name?"
The barbarian commander before was tied up and knelt in front of Huo Qubing.
"You are not as skilled as others. If you want to kill me, just kill me. Why waste your words."
This man is quite tough, which is in line with the character of most barbarians.
"You should know that the water sources of the Bath tribe are basically controlled by our army. As long as our army withdraws, at least half of your people will die."
Huo Qubing was not exaggerating. Without water, it would be fatal. The Bath tribe would definitely not last for a few days.
Even if they leave here, they need water along the way. Not to mention other dangers, if they can't find water on the road, it's hard to say whether they can get out of this area.
Even if they leave reluctantly, in the future, without a large water source and the prying eyes of other tribes, the Bath tribe will have a good end.
The Bath tribe is like this, and the small and medium-sized tribes that follow the Bath tribe will have a better fate.
"You can see that it is not difficult for our army to take down one of your water sources. If our army continues to act, you can think about the consequences."
"Now, I will give you a chance to save your chieftain, or even the entire Bath tribe. Do you want it?"
Huo Qubing said leisurely.
This is not a threat. Huo Qubing said all the facts. The barbarians roaming on the grassland are too clear about these situations.
The short battle just now has made them see the combat power of this army. If they continue to raid, the few water sources of the Bath tribe may not be able to be defended.
Even if they are defended, these people will destroy it wantonly, and the army will not dare to move while guarding the water source. Who will be their opponent?
The barbarians who are scattered are most afraid of encountering such enemies.
"My name is Bal, and I am the chieftain of the Bal tribe."
"Tell me, what do you want me to do?"
Bal no longer insisted.
Even if it is not for his own life, he should consider his own tribe and the people of the Bas tribe.
The lives of so many people are far more important than his own.
"I want you to become my general's man, and at the same time, represent me to negotiate with Bas."
Huo Qubing directly stated his meaning.
"You want me to betray the barbarians?"
Bal asked.
Although the barbarians are fickle, surrendering and joining others is not a big deal, but joining foreigners is still rare.
"No, it's not betraying the barbarians, but leading the barbarians to a better future, just like the current Balit tribe, from an unknown small tribe, it has developed into a large tribe that people are afraid of in a few months."
Huo Qubing used Balit as an example, believing that Bal could understand.
"So that's it, behind Balit, there are you foreigners, Balit betrayed the barbarians."
The people of the Bas tribe had similar speculations before, after all, the tall city is a symbol of foreigners.
Now that Huo Qubing has confirmed it, it can be regarded as the real situation of Balit.
"Who are you? Recently, there have been many wars among foreign tribes. I heard that the barbarian cavalry is active. It seems that you did all this."
The barbarians also have some news, but it is not very accurate. Barlett's blockade of border news is still very strict.
A few words cannot allow the barbarians to judge the situation outside.
"Since you want to know, this general can tell you the truth. However, if you don't agree to my conditions after hearing it, I'm afraid you can't leave here."
Huo Qubing said that he could tell Bal some of the situation.
If Bal didn't listen honestly, whether he knew the secret or not, he would not be able to leave alive today.
"I would like to hear the details."
Bal also knew his situation, but he still wanted to know more secrets, so that even if he died, he would not regret it.
"My name is Huo Qubing. I am a general under the command of His Royal Highness the King of the North in the northern border of Xia State, responsible for the barbarian war."
"Ballit is the barbarian force fostered by the northern border."
"Today's Ballit tribe not only has elite soldiers and generals, but also the people have a worry-free life. The strength has undergone earth-shaking changes."
"Your Highness's policy towards the barbarians is to use them as much as possible. Except for the necessary warriors who need to cooperate with the northern border in the war, the lives of other barbarian people are taken care of by the northern border."
"You have also seen the combat effectiveness of the cavalry led by this general. To tell you the truth, Ballit now has five million such cavalry, but most of them are in Liang State."
"If the Ballits come out in full force with advanced equipment, how long do you think the Bass tribe and the Gulun tribe can resist?"
"The reason why this general has told you so much is that I hope you can understand the current situation."As the general's special envoy, go and negotiate with Bas. If Bas is willing to surrender, not only can the water problem be solved, but the survival problem of the Bas tribe can also be solved by the general." "That's roughly the situation. You make a decision." After that, Huo Qubing sat there waiting for Bas's choice. Bas's mind was racing, digesting the information provided by Huo Qubing. Bas did not doubt the truth of the information. In his current situation, the other party had no need to lie to him. Bas was not a necessary chess piece to negotiate with Bas, and Bas was very clear about this. Xia State was so powerful that it was beyond Bas's expectation. Bas tribe was a large tribe that had been rooted in this area for a long time. There was no such a big crisis in terms of food. Therefore, large tribes like them rarely participated in the harassment of Liang and Xia. But he They also know the general situation of Liang and Xia.
Now there are changes, and there are reasons that they are not clear about, but these have nothing to do with Bal.
Now Bal is considering what he should do.
A Barite, an insignificant little man, has now grown to this point, which shows the power of Xia.
Bal is also aware of the difficulties faced by the Bass tribe. If the water problem is not solved, it will fall apart.
This is nothing. The large-scale death of the tribesmen is the most terrible.
Now Bal has the opportunity to change all this, and his mind is active.
"General, are you really willing to let the Bass tribe go?"
This is a rare opportunity to destroy the Bass tribe.
With the hatred of the Xia people for the barbarians, wouldn't it be better to destroy them?
"Don't worry about this. What this general wants is the barbarian troops. The reward is to solve all the survival problems of the barbarians. This is mutual."
"On this basis, hatred is not impossible to erase."
Huo Qubing expressed his position and clearly expressed his meaning. The barbarian cavalry will be under the command of Xia.
