"Why should I kill you?"
Sun Bin would not do anything stupid.
Shan Hu's position and significance among the Li tribe natives was extraordinary. If he was really killed, Cliff Mountain City would become enemies with the Li tribe natives, and it would be impossible to win their hearts.
"Then let me go!"
Seeing that his life was not in danger, Shan Hu became arrogant again.
"Let you go? Impossible. "
Sun Bin had recently become familiar with military books, and knew of Zhuge Liang's seven capture of Meng Huo. But he would not do such a time-consuming and laborious thing, where would he have the time to do so.
"You!" Shan Hu was furious, "What do you want?"
"Cooperation!"
"Cooperation?"
"That's right!"
"Hmph, our Li tribe has lived here for generations, we will not cooperate with you Han people." Shan Hu was still stubborn, he did not trust the Han people.
Sun Bin shook his head regretfully, "You don't want to cooperate? Then there's no other way. In order to eliminate all future troubles, I can only chop off your heads. I want to see how the old, weak, women, and children in the mountains will fight against my army. "
Sun Bin said it casually, but Eagle and Mountain Pillar broke out in cold sweat when they heard it.
"Hmph, if you want to kill, then kill, there is no coward among the Li tribe warriors."
Shan Hu was really stubborn, he did not turn back even after hitting the southern wall.
"Good, you have blood!" Sun Bin nodded, his face suddenly became cold, he shouted loudly, "Guards!"
"Here!"
Four guards walked in with a murderous look.
"Drag them away and behead them in public!"
"Yes!"
The guards dragged Shan Hu and the other two out for interrogation.
Shan Hu was immediately dumbfounded, this young general was beaming with joy a moment ago, and the next moment he was cold and murderous, this change in attitude was unexpected.
Damn Han people, they were too cunning.
A trace of regret flashed in Shan Hu's heart. But it was impossible for him to lower his head and admit his mistake.
"Wait!"
The one who spoke was Shan Hu's son, Shan Zhu.
Seeing that the situation was not right, Shan Zhu finally regained his senses, if he did not speak, not only him and his son, but the entire Li tribe would suffer.
Compared to Shan Hu, Shan Zhu was much more open-minded as a young man. Especially after living in the military camp for a period of time, Shan Zhu deeply realized how wonderful the world outside the mountains was.
In the past, when he was holed up in the tribe, he was like a frog in a well.
During the days when he was detained, Shan Zhu kept reflecting on the fate of the tribe. What should he do? Was it really a mistake to walk out of the mountains?
Putting everything else aside, just the advanced art of war of the Han is enough to make Shanzhu infatuated. He, who had seen the vast world, did not want to drag the entire tribe into the abyss because of stubbornly sticking to tradition.
"Speak!"
Sun Bin waved his hand to stop the guard.
He merely wanted to scare Shan Hu and the others. How could he really execute them?
An army of sixty thousand! He, Sun Bin, was no cold-blooded butcher.
Shan Zhu turned to look at his father and said, "Father, I think we should listen to their conditions first. It won't be too late to make a decision after that."
Shan Zhu spoke very tactfully. He naturally had to take into account his father's face. He knew how much his father cared about face.
Shan Hu snorted, tacitly agreeing to Shan Zhu's suggestion.
Shan Zhu blushed with shame. He looked at Sun Bin again and asked, "What kind of cooperation?"
Shan Zhu's feelings towards Sun Bin were extremely complicated. There was hostility, but also admiration. Especially after listening to Dai Qin, who seemed to be highly regarded by Sun Bin, the feeling in his heart became even more complicated.
"I don't have the authority to decide the specific cooperation. I have to discuss it with the Marquis personally."
Sun Bin was only a general, so naturally, he could not decide the allegiance of a tribe. Although the Marquis had given him great power, Sun Bin would not act recklessly and overstep his boundaries.
Otherwise, he would be committing a great taboo.
Scrupulously abiding by the way of a general was the bottom line and principle of every general.
"Alright, General, please introduce us to the Marquis of Lian Province."
One had no choice but to lower one's head.
For some reason, the Marquis of Lian Province, whom he had only met once, suddenly flashed across Shan Zhu's mind.
What would the future be like?
The next day, accompanied by Sun Bin, Shan Hu and his son were teleported to Shanhai City to see Ouyang Shuo.
After receiving the news, Ouyang Shuo received the father and son in the main hall.
As they were still captives, Shan Hu and his son were still tied up when they entered the main hall.
When Ouyang Shuo saw this, he said, "They are guests from afar. Men, untie their ropes."
"Yes!"
"The Marquis?"
Sun Bin was a little worried. He knew how powerful Shan Zhu was. Once the ropes were untied, it would be troublesome if Shan Zhu suddenly attacked.
"It's fine!"
Ouyang Shuo smiled, full of confidence.
Shan Zhu might be strong, but with Ouyang Shuo's current strength, he had nothing to fear. Not to mention that there were guards outside the main hall that could enter at any time to provide reinforcements.
The guards received the order and untied the ropes on Shan Hu and his son.
When the guards left, Shan Zhu really did have a thought in that instant. If he could capture the Marquis of Lian Province, then all the danger would be resolved. It wouldn't be a problem for them to retreat from the Cliff Province.
However, when he saw the Marquis of Lian Province sitting on the main seat, unmoving like a mountain, Shan Zhu's heart trembled.
He felt that the Marquis of Lian Province was unfathomable. In the end, he gave up on the thought.
Seeing that Shan Zhu didn't attack, Sun Bin let out a sigh of relief.
Ouyang Shuo didn't mind it at all. He smiled and said, "Give them a seat!"
Shan Hu and his son obediently sat on the right side. Sitting across from him was Sun Bin. The four division heads of the Marquis's Mansion were currently in the Thunder Province and couldn't make it to the meeting.
When Shan Hu and his son entered the main hall, they felt that the Marquis of Lian Province was extraordinary. After fighting with wild beasts for a long time in the forest, they had trained their intuition to be as sharp as wild beasts.
Based on their intuition, they could feel that the Marquis of Lian Province was faintly emitting a domineering and murderous aura. Facing the Marquis of Lian Province was like facing the king of the forest. They were completely suppressed.
Along with the awakening of Ouyang Shuo's consciousness, the murderous aura from his previous life as an Asura had slowly affected Ouyang Shuo's temperament. This murderous aura was suppressed by the Inner Canon of the Yellow Emperor.
On the other hand, the Demonic God Bloodline in Ouyang Shuo's body was stimulated by the murderous aura.
If Ouyang Shuo wasn't careful, the murderous aura would leak out.
With their momentum being completely suppressed, the confidence and trump cards of the two were imperceptibly weakened.
What they had to face was a king that couldn't be offended.
Before the meeting, Ouyang Shuo didn't talk about the Li Tribe. Instead, he first introduced the Mountain Barbarian Tribe and the Prairie Tribe living in Lian Province and elaborated on the equality policy of the various tribes in the territory.
Shan Zhu and Shan Hu sucked in a mouthful of cold air.
Not to mention the Prairie Tribe, the Mountain Barbarian Tribe was a barbarian tribe that was comparable to the Li Tribe. The Marquis of Lian Province could subdue the Mountain Barbarian Tribe, which was truly the demeanor of a king.
If they could really go down the mountain and live like the Marquis said, it might not be a bad thing.
Shan Zhu was even more delighted inwardly. He felt that his choice was correct.
Seeing that the two were bewildered, Ouyang Shuo added, "If you still have doubts, you can stay in Lian Province for a period of time and investigate the place to see if I'm exaggerating or not. It won't be too late to discuss after you've seen it. "
Shan Zhu and Shan Hu looked at each other before they stepped forward and said, "We trust the Marquis."
"Good! Straightforward!"
Ouyang Shuo laughed heartily.
Sun Bin, who was sitting on the side, couldn't help but sigh in admiration when he saw the Marquis subduing the two in a few moves.
After the discussion, more than twenty Li Tribe tribes would move to Cliff Mountain City, ending their primitive hunting life and turning to farming. They would establish settlements in the western suburbs of Cliff Mountain City, with the tribes as units.
According to the territory policy, each tribe would receive free land, farming tools, and a month's supply of food and other supplies from Cliff Mountain City. The remaining food could also be borrowed from the granary of Cliff Mountain City.
At the same time, in order to take care of some hunters who were unwilling to farm, Cliff Mountain City would also build its first subsidiary territory at the foot of the Five Fingers Mountain — Ningyuan Town.
In the future, Ningyuan Town would also be the outpost for adventurous players to enter the Five Fingers Mountain. Cliff Mountain City was still too far from the Five Fingers Mountain, so it was inconvenient to go back and forth.
It could be foreseen that Ningyuan Town would flourish in the future.
Of course, Ouyang Shuo wouldn't take in all the 60,000 soldiers who had surrendered. Most of the soldiers would be sent back to their villages to become the main labor force for farming.
Adhering to the territory's strategy of elite soldiers, Ouyang Shuo ordered that Sun Bin be in charge of selecting the elites to form three more mountain brigades.
Together with the previous two mountain brigades, they would form a division of mountain troops, the Third Division of the Tiger Army.
The position of division commander of the Third Division was temporarily vacant.
Shan Zhu, who was favored by Sun Bin, was appointed by Ouyang Shuo as the Third Division's Deputy Division Commander and the First Brigade Commander, while Shan Ying was appointed as the Second Brigade Commander.
Shan Zhu's successful promotion completely dispelled Shan Hu's doubts. Marquis Lian Zhou's breadth of mind was not something he could guess, so he had to admire him.
Shan Zhu was even more grateful to Ouyang Shuo.

Shan Zhu was indeed talented. He was already a Intermediate General as soon as he appeared. With Sun Bin's guidance, it was only a matter of time before he became a Advanced General.
As for the cultivation method, Ouyang Shuo immediately thought of E Lai's Desolate Tiger Scripture.
If there was a chance, he could have E Lai teach it to Shan Zhu.
At this point, the southern part of Jingzhou Island was basically pacified.
The population of Cliff Mountain City increased by more than 160,000 at once, ushering in another explosive growth. With this battle, Bing'er's achievement points also increased rapidly, and she was promoted to a Rank 2 Earl.
On the same day, Cliff Mountain Town was promoted to a Rank 2 County.
At the same time, the battle in Thunder Province also entered a critical period. (To be continued.)
