"The Qiang people lost nearly 400,000 young and strong in this battle, which is almost the strength of the entire Qiang people."

"After this battle, the Qiang people will not have any resistance for at least twenty years."

"And we have to seize this opportunity to completely assimilate the Qiang people into Han people just like we did with the Nanman."

Liu Zhang has already tasted the sweetness of assimilating foreign races, so naturally he will not easily give up the opportunity to replenish the population.

Due to the loss of the elite of the Qiang nationality, the Qiang tribe has great problems even in survival.

Therefore, it is much less difficult for the Qiang people to surrender than for the Nanman, whether it is in terms of time, manpower, or material resources.

Coupled with the valuable experience of assimilating the barbarians before, handing over the matter of assimilating the Qiang to Lu Su will surely get twice the result with half the effort!

Liu Zhang was naturally very keen to get the attachment of the entire Qiang nationality at a relatively small price.

But this "not too big" price is only for the Yizhou forces.

"My lord, the Qiang people have never been loyal. Why don't you take this opportunity to kill them directly!"

Uncharacteristically, Fazheng made the most vicious suggestion to Liu Zhang.

"Xiaozhi, there are at least a million Qiang people, so is it possible to kill them all?"

Even Bai Qi, known as the "human slaughter", only killed 400,000 Zhao troops!

Could it be that Liu Zhang wants to take over the title of "Rentu" and slaughter millions of Qiang people?

The corners of Fazheng's mouth raised slightly, revealing a cold smile.

"My lord, didn't the two battles outside Yuzhong City kill nearly 400,000 Qiang people?"

At the moment, only more than 20,000 Qiang soldiers are being held in the camp outside Yuzhong City.

Even counting the thousands of people who fled, more than 350,000 Qiang people have died in battle!

Liu Zhang frowned, but did not agree with Fazheng's point of view.

"Xiaozhi, in fact, more Qiang people died in the rout, civil strife, and cannibalism. Not even 150,000 people died directly at our hands."

"My lord, what I mean is why don't you use this opportunity to completely wipe out the capricious Qiang people!"

After Fa Zheng said, the whole person became excited.

"Xiaozhi has enmity with the Qiang people?"

Liu Zhang was very puzzled. He clearly remembered that the Qiang people had never harmed Fazheng, so he didn't understand why the hatred between the two was so great!

Fazheng shook his head, but his eyes were still full of excitement.

"My lord, every Han Chinese living in Guanzhong is always thinking about completely eradicating the Qiang people!"

Now Liu Zhang understood that there was pure racial hatred between the two.

It is precisely because of hundreds of years of aggression and rebellion that the people in Guanzhong hate the Qiang people from the bottom of their hearts.

Seeing that Liu Zhang did not agree, Fazheng quickly persuaded him again.

"My lord, the Qiang people have never been faithful, shameless or virtuous! It is a common occurrence for them to keep their promises and promises!"

"Instead of wasting a lot of energy, time, money, and food on them, it's better to slaughter them all, and send troops to Guanzhong with the saved materials and time!"

Nearly 400,000 elite Qiang people were wiped out in the two wars, and Fazheng saw the dawn of the complete annihilation of the Qiang people!

Now is definitely the weakest time for the Qiang people, and this is also a great opportunity not to be missed.

"no!"

Liu Zhang resolutely rejected Fazheng's proposal.

The firm tone and eyes have proved that this is his deliberate decision.

"My lord, why not?"

Fazheng couldn't accept it for a while, he didn't understand why he refused so decisively.

"Xiaozhi, I understand your feelings, but it is absolutely impossible to destroy the Qiang people!"

For Liu Zhang, no matter how high the price of subjugating the Qiang people is, he has to bear the pain.

"Xiao Zhi, not only the Qiang people live in Liangzhou, but also the Di people. It's just that the Di people are not as powerful as the Qiang people, and they mainly focus on farming, unlike the Qiang people who are so capricious."

"Not only the two prefectures of Yongliang and Liangzhou, but also many Qiang and Di people in Yizhou. Once I slaughter all the Qiang people, do you know what will happen?"

There is a word called rabbit dead fox sad!

Once the Qiang people in Liangzhou perish, the Di people living here will definitely feel sad when the rabbit dies and the fox dies.

At present, there are still a large number of Qiang and Di people living in the deep mountains of Yizhou.

Once Liu Zhang starts killing, it is likely to cause a series of chain reactions.

In the worst case, rebellions may occur in all sites!

"If the Qiang people and the Di people rise up to rebel, not to mention marching into Hexi, I'm afraid we will be busy suppressing the rebellion in the next few years!"

Fazheng trembled all over his body, and his mind suddenly came to his senses.

The huge temptation in front of him made him forget to consider the overall situation!

Now the more I think about it, the more afraid I become, my entire back is already wet with sweat!

"I am confused, please forgive me, my lord!"

Fazheng quickly figured everything out, and hurriedly bowed his hands and pleaded guilty to Liu Zhang.

That's what top strategists do.

Although he is inexperienced due to his age, his sharp mind is not something that can be taken lightly.

"Xiaozhi, I can listen to you on other matters, but absolutely not on the matters of the Qiang people!"

"My short-sightedness made my lord laugh..."

Fazheng was so ashamed that he didn't even dare to raise his head.

Joining Liu Zhang's command not only has no achievements, but also often comes up with bad ideas!

This made Fazheng, who had a strong self-esteem, somewhat unacceptable.

Liu Zhang didn't care, and patted Fazheng's shoulder lightly.

"It's okay, I know Xiaozhi's ability!"

"We are about to deal with the Xianbei people, Xiaozhi has to think about how to defeat the enemy!"

Not only did Liu Zhang not blame him, but he also encouraged Fazheng with words of encouragement.

"I obey!"

After Fazheng's episode, Liu Zhang turned to look at his mastermind again.

Among these counselors, Xun You is undoubtedly the most experienced and mature!

Generally, after Xun You's approval, there will be almost no mistakes.

"Gongda, now that the Xianbei people have gone to Fufeng County, I'm afraid we won't have the ability to pursue them in the next two to three months! You should talk about your views on the Qiang people."

Xun You nodded slightly. In fact, he had been thinking about this all the time.

"My lord, as far as I know, even if the Qiang people lose these 400,000 elites, the total population will not be less than one million, right?"

"good!"

After receiving Liu Zhang's confirmation, Xun You thought for a while again.

"One million people is too much for us!"

Liu Zhang is worrying about the number of people!

There are more than three million Han Chinese under his rule, and more than one million barbarians.

If more than one million Qiangs are accepted, then the number of foreign and Han people will be equal!

This has not counted the scattered Qiang, Di, and barbarians in northern Yizhou who had not had time to recover.

If all of them are counted together, I am afraid that the population will form a number of five or five!

The best way to assimilate alien races is to let them live among the Han people.

Without population differences, who exactly assimilated whom?

At present, the number of Han people is not enough, and the number of foreign races is too many, which immediately formed a deadlock.

"If the number of Qiang people can be reduced to 400,000 to 500,000, it will be much easier..."
