Kong Ming asked Ma Su how he could quell the rebellion of the barbarians. Ma Su said that barbarians are capricious and must be convinced. Kong Ming thinks this is very reasonable.
After Kong Ming defeated Nan Man's three-hole marshal, he set an ambush for Wang Ping and Guan Suo to lure the enemy. They pretended to be defeated and led Meng Huo, the king of Nan, into the canyon. Zhang Ben and zhang yi pursued them, and Wang Ping and Guan Suo returned to their horses to attack. Meng Huo couldn't resist and was captured alive by Wei Yan.
Meng Huo refused to accept it, and he wanted to fight against Kong Ming again. If he was captured again, he would only take it. Kongming sent him back.
Meng Huo camped in Lushui, and asked the marshals of the two caves to help him. He was afraid of being tricked by Kong Ming, so he just kept fighting and let the Shu army retreat on its own after it was hot.
Sergeant Kong Mingling camped in the Woods to escape the heat, and Ma Dailing led 3,000 soldiers to cross the river from Shahekou to the rear of the barbarian soldiers, cutting off the barbarian soldiers' food and grass, and also recruited two marshals as the inside men.
Meng Huo insisted on the natural barrier of Lujiang River, thinking it was foolproof, and drank for fun every day. Ma Dai, the general of Shu, crossed the Lushui River in the middle of the night, took the grain and grass of Marshal Dong Tuna, and cut off the grain route in Jiashan. Meng was furious and made the warrior beat Dong Tuna with a hundred sticks to avoid his death.
Dong Tuna, resentful, took advantage of Meng Huo's drunkenness and gathered his men to tie Meng Huo to see Kong Ming. Meng Huo still refused to accept it. After Kong Ming showed Meng Huo the grain and grass of the elite soldiers in Shu camp, Meng Huo still refused to accept it and released him again.
Meng Huo said to his younger brother Meng You, we know the military situation of the Shu army. You took more than 100 elite soldiers to present treasures to Kong Ming and killed him.
Kong Ming asked Ma Su if he knew Meng Huo's plot. Ma Su wrote Meng Huo's plot on paper with a smile. Kong Ming laughed after reading it, and ordered people to drug the wine so that Meng You and other barbarians could eat and drink.
That night, Meng Huo rushed into the army with 30,000 soldiers to catch Kong Ming, only to know that he was cheated when he got into the account. Meng You and other barbarians were all drunk. Wei Yan, Wang Ping, and Zhao Yun split up and killed in three ways. The barbarians were defeated, and Meng Huo fled to Lushui alone.
Meng Huo was intercepted by soldiers dressed as barbarians in Ma Dai in Lushui, and escorted to see Kong Ming. Meng Huo said that this time it was his younger brother Meng You's drinking, but he was still unconvinced. So Kong Ming released him for the third time.
Meng Huo, in revenge, borrowed 100,000 brand knives to fight against the Shu soldiers. Meng Huo wears rhinoceros leather armour and rides a red-haired cow. Brand Ding Bing, naked, grimacing and with long hair, came at Shu camp like a savage. Kongming ordered the village gate to be closed and waited for the opportunity.
When the power of the barbarian soldiers had diminished, Kong Ming was attacked by a surprise attack. Meng Huo was defeated and fled to a tree. When he saw Kong Ming sitting in a car, he rushed over and tried to catch him, but he fell into a pit and was caught instead. Meng Huo still refused, and Kong Ming let him go again.
Meng Huo hid in the Tulong Cave for help. Yang Feng, the owner of the Yinye Cave, thanked Kong Ming for not killing his people a few days ago. He captured Meng Huo in the Tulong Cave and gave it to Kong Ming. Meng Huo refused, of course, and wanted to fight against Kongming in Yinkeng Cave again, but Kongming let him go again.
Meng Huo gathered more than a thousand people in Yinkeng Cave, and asked his wife and brother to ask King Mulu, who can drive away poisonous snakes and beasts, to help him. When he was arranging a decisive battle with the Shu army, the Shu army had arrived at the cave. Meng Huo was frightened, and his wife Zhu Rongshi led the troops to battle.
Zhu Rong's family wounded Zhang Ben, the general of Shu, with a flying knife, and took him alive, then tripped Ma Zhong with a horse rope and caught him together. The next day, Kong Ming also tricked Zhu Rong's family and exchanged her for Zhang Ben and Ma Zhong.
Meng Huo wants King Mulu to fight. Riding a white elephant, chanting incantations and shaking bells in his hand, Mulu drove a group of poisonous snakes and beasts to the Shu army.
Kong Ming took out the wooden behemoth that had been prepared, breathed fire in his mouth and smoked in his nose, which scared off the savage monster and occupied Meng Huo's silver hole.
The next day, Kong Ming was about to divide his forces to capture Meng Huo when he got a report that Meng Huo's brother-in-law had taken Meng Huo to the Kongming Village to surrender. Knowing that it was a fake surrender, Kong Ming gave an order to take all the weapons and found everyone's weapons. Meng Huo refused, saying that if he could be captured seven times, he would really be convinced. Kong Ming then let him go again.
Meng Huo invited the Fujia Army of Ukraine to fight against Kongming. Kongming burned countless barbarians with oil truck powder, and Meng Huo was captured for the seventh time before he really surrendered.
Kongming saw that the ground was flat and moved troops back to China. When we reached Lushui, it was stormy and the soldiers and horses could not cross the river. The local natives said it was ghosts and ghosts. Kongming sacrificed to the dead by the Lushui River and burst into tears. Lushui became calm, and the army could cross the river and return.
When the army returned to Chengdu, Liu Chan, the late ruler, went out of the city three miles to meet him. Liu Chan and Zhuge Liang rode in parallel, held a peaceful banquet, and rewarded the three armed forces. Since then, more than 300 neighboring countries have paid tribute to Shu every year.
