Chapter 1165: Rebellion

After Lu Fan took office, the political system in Western Xinjiang was basically formed, with most Qin officials and a small number of ethnic minorities.

There are many officials in all aspects here, including the main transfers of Qin officials include the governor of Qingyuan County, the governor of Wuwei County, etc.

The popularization of the law and a series of policies are also gradually advancing.

But it is not that easy to manage an area that has just been recovered, especially since it is still Rong District.

Of course, ordinary people support Qin law because it is based on the people, but there are always people who feel that this harms their own interests.

On this day, the Jirong tribe.

This is a small group with a population of about 2,000. They are not ordinary herders. They are fierce by nature and have no fixed place to live. They wander around the grassland and make a living by plundering.

To put it bluntly, it is to rob the people everywhere. During the reign of the Western Rong King, he acquiesced to this behavior. After every time Ji Rong swept over, he would plunder women from other tribes and sell them as slaves.

Now the entire Western Xinjiang has belonged to Qin State, and the first decree is to strictly enforce the law. For Ji Rong, there is no need to rob him in the future, and they themselves are unwilling to grazle and work, so they will naturally develop a great resistance.

Inside the tent, the leader of Jirong was discussing countermeasures with a group of backbones.

Someone said: "Not only can we not steal other tribes, but we can't even bring slaves to the market to sell them. What should we do if this continues?"

"No, we can't continue like this anymore." The leader of Ji Rong said with a cold look on his face: "It's the season for grazing. As long as we go out once, we can easily grab a large number of fat sheep, which is enough for the second half of the year."

"But if the leader, under Qin law, this would probably cause a blow from the government." Someone said with a little concern.

"What a shitty official!" The leader of Ji Rong sneered: "Just like before, we will run away after fighting. At worst, we can rob it, hide in the deep mountains and forests, and then come out to plunder after the limelight."

This is a small group that makes a living by plundering, or a horse team.

They had been used to the life of looting before, so that they could not help themselves, and they were not willing to do so. In addition, although the Qin law was strict, it did not fall on its head in the end, so they would have some luck.

When everyone in the tent heard this, they first looked at each other, and then nodded in agreement.

Seeing that the backbone had no objection, the leader of Jirong made a quick decision and said, "Okay, let's sweep the Yongdeng area! Remember, the speed must be fast. When they don't react, they will leave after the robbery!"

"I understand!" The backbones responded. This kind of thing was so familiar to them.

After the administrative regions of Western Xinjiang were divided, Yongdengnai County, and a few days later, a village was in a certain village.

At this time, many officials sent by the Ministry of Revenue were traveling across Western Xinjiang to implement their population and household registration, and there was also an official here.

Outside the village, there are simple herders driving the sheep.

In the village, officials were talking to an old man. Because many ordinary people do not speak the Central Plains language, officials would accompany them with their translators so that there would be no obstacles in communication.

The old man wore a cloth towel from a minority on his head, and he was very energetic and said, "Before, our small tribe lived in this area and had no specific name. Now, this place has been changed to Boshan Village, which belongs to Yongdeng County. I was also fortunate to be elected as the village chief. I have any questions to ask, and I will tell you everything I know."

"Ah, then I'll bother the old man." The official smiled gently, "I don't know how many families are there in our Boshan Village now."

"The whole village has ninety-three households, about three hundred people..."

The old man was just talking here, but a scream suddenly came from outside the village.

"The thief is here! The thief is here-"

"Run quickly-"

As the screams came, the villagers were in chaos.

Immediately afterwards, the deafening sound of horse hooves came, and a team of cavalrymen rushed into the village with lightning, mixed with rolling dust.

After entering, the speed did not decrease. When the horse galloped, it was wielding a scimitar, which was to kill everyone and chop them when they saw them.

As the blood splattered, villagers fell in pools of blood, or were knocked away by war horses, and howling sounded one after another.

The old man suddenly panicked and said in a trembling voice: "Great... sir, please leave, it must be the barbaric looters."

There were two guards around the officials. In this case, they hurriedly protected them and wanted to leave, but the cavalry was too fast and had already rushed to attack before they could evacuate.

The scream sounded, and the old man and the guard beside him were directly overturned by a scimitar. A group of war horses galloped past, and a large number of cavalry surrounded the officials in the middle, tying the reins one after another.

As the horses neighed one after another, the leader of Ji Rong rode a horse and separated the crowd and stared at the officials coldly.

No one is not afraid of death. Looking at this scene, the official couldn't help swallowing his saliva at first, and then said tremblingly: "You! Who are you!?"

No one spoke, and the cavalry were staring at his official uniform.

It is precisely because of this official uniform that the official was not killed immediately.

He was the only one left at the scene, surrounded by cavalrymen.

Seeing that no one responded, he swallowed again and said with courage: "I... I am an official of the Qin Dynasty. You invaded the villages because of rebellion! You are going to lose your head!"

Hearing this, the fierce light flashed in the eyes of the leader Ji Rong. Without hesitation, he directly smashed the horse's belly, stepped forward, and took his sword to fall.

Blood sprayed, and the official fell to the ground, dying on the spot, and the blood dyed the Qin official uniform red.

This scene also scared many people. A backbone Adam's apple slid and stuttered: "Head... leader, we, we killed the officials of Qin..."

Who is behind the officials? Qin State.

This is not a joke, it will naturally have a deterrent effect.

As a result, the leader of Ji Rong shouted coldly: "What are you afraid of? The matter has been done! What can you do to us? After searching for supplies, evacuate immediately!"

"Yes, yes..." The backbone was still a little worried.

Boshan Village was swept away by Jirong, and all men, women, young and old in the village were massacred and robbed.

The Jirong cavalry came quickly and ran faster. That afternoon, County Magistrate Yongdeng received the news and after verification, he was shocked. He dared not delay any delay. He immediately reported it to Shangguan and then transferred it to Xining Protectorate.

A few days later, when Lu Fan received the official document, he slapped the table on the spot and said angrily: "It's outrageous! At the beginning of the governance of Western Xinjiang, there was such a lawless existence! This is a blatant challenge to the country's bottom line!"

There was an official in the study room who was reporting the matter before. Seeing Lu Fan furious, he couldn't help but pluck his courage and said, "Sir, why are you so angry?"

"The magistrate of Yongdeng County reported that the Jirong tribe had openly invaded the village, burned, killed and looted! Killed our Qin officials!"
