Crowned the New Han Dynasty

Chapter 1037: Destroy their clan and kill their species, cut off their roots and cut off their veins
"Let's talk about the Tuoba tribe first. I think you are most familiar with this Xianbei people..."

As soon as the scholar's voice fell, some people in the crowd nodded. Among this group of people, maybe some people were brought back from the Tuoba Department.

"The Tuoba Tribe has developed well in the past few years and has annexed many surrounding tribes. The Tuoba Sixth Cultivator defeated Tuoba Yulu and secured his position, advocating that Xianbei should be given priority. At the beginning, he invaded Youyou several times. The state, this generation of county boundaries, because of insufficient defense, was seized by the people and robbed twice!"

At this point, everyone onlookers nodded, and many showed expressions of contempt and anger.

Liu Kun also knew about this, and said it happened two or three years ago. At that time, Youzhou had been immersed in the development for a while, and the internal troops were being reorganized and mobilized. The military strength has fluctuated, and more emphasis has been placed on internal integration than on external affairs. Even the command system, army composition, and military rank structure have been modified and reshaped.

In this case, they were suddenly invaded, and because the command system had not yet stabilized, they suffered several losses at the beginning.

"...At that time, the man stationed in the north was also General Ran, but at that time he only had 2000 soldiers and horses who could really obey orders. These two thousand were from Daijun Wuding. In addition, some of them were the original garrison troops, and the rest They were all surrendered soldiers who had no fighting ability. In addition, the general ordered to reorganize the army and divide it into five major garrisons: east, west, south, north and center. As the northern garrison general, Ran had too many things to deal with. Tuoba was careless for a moment. The people in the department succeeded in infiltrating the invaders and caused quite a stir..."

Many people knew what the scholar told them, but most of what they knew was only one aspect, a superficial situation. For example, they knew that the Xianbei invaded, but the garrison did not stop them, causing a certain amount of losses. Afterwards, General Zhengbei reprimanded Ran Zhan, Let him be punished and make meritorious service, etc.

Now when I listen to this scholar's lecture, I understand the deeper logic.

For example, the Tuoba Sixth Cultivator was actually in a bad situation at the time. Although he was victorious in the civil war, he suffered considerable losses, so his status in the clan was not actually stable. In addition, he had been robbed by Ran Zhan before, and his prestige was damaged. Various factors combined Together, they contributed to his decision to send troops to replace the county.

On the other hand, Ran Zhan was inexperienced, and he felt that Tuoba should bow his head just like Murong after just winning, so he relaxed his vigilance, and the command system was a bit chaotic, so he was caught off guard. , which caused the first two mistakes.

With such an explanation of the internal cause, the onlookers could immediately see the problem in a three-dimensional way, and also understood why the Tuoba tribe was defeated so miserably when they invaded for the third time.

"The first two times gained sweetness, and Tuoba Liuxiu also stabilized his power, which restored some of the vitality of the ethnic group that had been plagued by civil wars and divisions, so he planned to continue to invade. As a result, General Ran had already prepared for this time and gave him a head-on blow. , not only annihilated the invading Tuoba army, but also chased it out, and with the cooperation and assistance of Qipinyi Cong, after several battles, the Tuoba tribe was forced to move northward for more than 200 miles, and set up camp again. The Sixth Cultivator personally came forward, offered tribute, released all the people who had been looted, compensated the cattle and sheep, and cut out two pastures and handed them over to the seventh-rank Yi Cong to graze, and this is considered to have calmed down the incident."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this.

But some people said bitterly: "These barbarians only care about food but not about fighting. Back then, the general led the army out of the fortress and beat the Murong tribe so much that they lost their armor and became famous in the grassland. As a result, the Tuoba tribe dared to use force to provoke them." We really have a long life!"

"Many of the people who were robbed were refugees who were resettled to open up wasteland in the north. I heard that many got sick and many died after being robbed outside the Great Wall. Those Xianbei people are really evildoers!" "The Xianbei people are also guilty. They suffered a lot, and many people became slaves and were dragged to the mines and worked to death! And those injured and sick refugees also received pensions from the general government..."

"After all, the Tuoba tribe is also afraid of being beaten. In the past few years, they have been fighting to the north, and they have fought several times with the Northern Huns in Rouran. Even if they fight to the south, they have only encountered the Huns, and they have won them all. The power has expanded a lot, and Tuoba Sixth Cultivator is a very ambitious guy. Maybe after he grows stronger, he will take advantage of our Youzhou again."

"What are you afraid of? Just hit anyone who comes. Life has gotten better in the past few years, but let me tell you, we would rather eat less bowls of soup cakes and live a harder life, and support the general's government in wiping out all these barbarians! If the Tuoba tribe takes the initiative to attack, just hit him! Destroy him!"

These bellicose remarks made Liu Kun look sideways, but many people around him cheered, and then they all added their own ideas, how to torture the foreign barbarians, exterminate their clan and kill their species, and cut off their roots and cut off their roots. pulse!

"This generation of county people are very warlike! They are completely different from the people in the hinterland of the Central Plains!" Liu Qun felt a chill in his back, especially when he looked at the farmers, small businessmen, craftsmen, and servants who were originally honest and honest. The look on his face, gradually getting excited as he discussed how to exterminate the barbarians, gave him a sense of fear.

This is a natural fear between classes.

Liu Qun and his father Liu Kun were both members of the privileged class of the gentry. They naturally hoped that the people below would be obedient and submissive. If the people rioted, of course they would be frightened.

In the memories of the father and son, most of the tenant farmers in the family and the people in the Central Plains were busy farming. They worked at sunrise and rested at sunset. They were tired from running around every day and had no time or energy to think too much. They were confused and confused. The created value is allowed to be enjoyed by landlords like them, and they accept it submissively. With some punishments and threats, they can be persuaded and made to give in and compromise. Where have you seen such people gathered together to talk about murder?

Even though the group of people in front of them were talking about killing barbarians, it still made the father and son feel chilly in their hearts.

Fortunately, the discussion did not last long, and a middle-aged man who was quite young and seemed to have read a book said: "I'm afraid it will be difficult to achieve your wishes. Even Murong, who was in the limelight, was killed by the general. After the lesson, no one dared to touch Youzhou again, let alone the Tuoba tribe? The Tuoba tribe had a good momentum in the past two years, but the civil war hurt their vitality, and the Tuoba Yulu lineage split off. They were inherently inadequate and could not compete with them. Murong Bu! Liu Sheng, you said this to me, right?" The last sentence was asked to the scholar who was preaching.

Liu Sheng nodded and said with a smile: "Brother's words are very good. Compared with Murong's tribe, Tuoba tribe is indeed slightly lacking. Although Murong's rise has had twists and turns, the general context is clear. Now his tribe dominates the grassland, controls the northeast, and is peaceful. The state is nearly half occupied, and Goguryeo has surrendered. Recently, with Murong's approval, Goguryeo entered Kou Pingzhou and caused a stir. I don't know what the intention was. Could it be that they saw the chaos in the Central Plains and wanted to invade our land..."

"This is a test!"

Suddenly, Liu Kun couldn't help but speak.
