Three Kingdoms Swept the World II

Chapter 257 Cao Yuanliu Likes

Qiang Qu, the king of the Xiongnu, retreated to the royal court. As the king of the Huns, he still had a strong military force on the grassland.However, the officers and soldiers led by Qin Feng went deep into the grassland alone, one after another ebbed and flowed, and their strength was on the contrary.

On the endless prairie, it is really difficult to design the Huns, so Cao Yuan and Liu were at a loss.

Liu Bei slapped his big ears, and asked the commander Qin Feng what clever plan he had to defeat the enemy.

It seems that the three of Cao, Yuan and Liu can still rely on Qin Feng, but Qin Feng, who is the No. 1 crusade army, can only rely on himself.

Fortunately, Qin Feng had experience in his previous life. After pondering for a while, he said, "Most of the soldiers Qiang Qu invaded Yanmen were coalition forces assembled by tribes. Qiang Qu was defeated in the previous battle, and the tribes who followed him suffered great losses. Swear allegiance to his trusted tribe."

"One ebbs and another. The tribes that had no strong relationship with the Huns before have retained their strength."

Cao Cao rolled his eyes and said, "Zijin, what you mean is to win over the tribes that have arrived, and send troops together to deal with Qiang Qu."

Qin Feng laughed and said, "Brother Meng De said exactly what he said, that's it."

Yuan Shao felt dizzy when he heard the words, and said, "Zijin, is it feasible to let the Huns attack their king?"

Qin Feng said with a smile: "As long as you give enough benefits, everything is possible."

Cao Yuan and Liu looked at each other for a while, at this time, Xun Yu came out and said: "What my lord said is true, the grassland people are all in the nature of tribal alliances. Although Qiang Qu controls them with an iron fist, they are not monolithic. Many tribes There is still hatred between them, so dividing and drawing together is the only way. Our army came here taking advantage of the great victory, as long as we give certain benefits, I believe that the tribes that have a bad relationship with Qiang Qu will definitely be willing to advance and retreat with us."

Liu Bei slapped his ears and said, "Then Wen Ruo is a military advisor, where does the benefit come from?"

Xun Yu smiled and said, "Since ancient times, grassland tribes have fought against each other for the sake of population and the fertile grassland area. General Liu, where do you think the benefits come from?"

"It makes sense!" Cao Yuanliu nodded for a while.

Qin Feng finally concluded: "The tribes that help our army suppress the rebellion can share the population and pastoral areas of the rebellious tribes. The person who contributes the most, this commander, will recommend him as the new King of the Huns."

Even a hero like Cao Yuanliu couldn't help but praise Qin Feng's clever strategy.

"Control barbarism with barbarism!"

"High, it is high!"

In this regard, Qin Feng formulated a strategy to deal with the Xiongnu King Qiangqu.

As the saying goes, a snake can't do without a head, and it is necessary to find someone among the Huns who can lead the pro-Han tribes against the Qiang Qu.In this way, just like later generations, there was a new Xiongnu government army to suppress the anti-government armed forces.And Qin Feng was able to destroy the enemy with minimal losses.

So, he asked Xun Yu to bring the materials of the various tribes who sincerely hoped to be recruited.And soon, a person was selected from them.This person is Saisang, the leader of the Horqin tribe, and Dayuer's father.

Qin Feng chose Saisang as the leader of the new tribal alliance, not just because Saisang is Dayuer's father.There are two other reasons, one of which: with the defeat of Qiangqu, the Hun king, the tribes loyal to him suffered great losses.The tribes that did not participate in the invasion and merged the state suffered very little loss.For example, Sai San's tribe has become one of the largest tribes at this moment.

Second: As the patriarch of the big grassland tribe, Saisang is highly respected among the Huns.If he takes the lead, it will definitely get twice the result with half the effort.

Sai Sang's tribe is the largest, and he is Qin Feng's future father-in-law.To choose a new leader of the Huns, it is natural to choose such a person who can support him.

The three of Cao Yuan and Liu felt that this Saisan was very likely to be the future King of the Huns.With him leading the pro-Han tribes to fight against the Qiang Qu, the victory index of the official army soared, while the loss soared.

"Since that's the case, we will wait for the good news from the commander in chief." Cao Yuan and Liu Qi said.

Ever since, Qin Feng didn't stop, and immediately went to pay a visit to his future father-in-law in person.

Half an hour later, ten miles to the northwest of the official camp, tribal leaders who were friendly to the Central Plains gathered here with their soldiers, waiting for the imperial edict.The scale of the gathering place is not large, nor small, there are about 1 people.

After Qin Feng came here, he didn't disturb the other tribes, but directly came to his future father-in-law's territory.

In a few moments, in front of Saisang's big tent.

Surprised, Sai Sang greeted Qin Feng's arrival. He first saluted and said, "Dear former general, it is an honor for Sai Sang to visit you."

"Patriarch Saisang doesn't need to be polite." Qin Feng looked Saisang up and down, and it was still the same as in the previous life.

"Please!"

"Please!"

Both parties accounted for the account, Sai Sang invited Qin Feng to take the seat, and as the host, he took the lead.

The big tent fell into a brief silence.

It is said that the defeat of the Xiongnu King Qiang Canal to Qin Feng has spread throughout the prairie.The Huns exclaimed one after another, and a new "Huo Qubing" appeared in the Central Plains court.

In fact, Sai Sang didn't think that the Xiongnu King Qiangqu's invasion of Han would be successful at the beginning, but he never thought that Qiangqu's defeat was so miserable.As we all know, Yuan Benchu, the general of the official army and guard, suffered a disastrous defeat. It was the former general Qin Feng who turned the tide and defeated Qiang Qu.

The Huns are also sharp-eyed. They know that if there is no Qin Feng, Qiang Qu must win.Therefore, the Huns were in awe of Qin Feng in their hearts.

They were afraid of Qin Feng, afraid that Qin Feng would kill the Huns just like hundreds of years ago.Therefore, after hearing that Qin Feng proposed to recruit peace, many tribes came to surrender.

After a brief silence, Sai Sang said cautiously first: "General Qin, has the imperial court's imperial edict arrived?"

Qin Feng smiled slightly, and said: "The imperial court has approved my suggestion to recruit security."

Calling for peace means that the court forgave the Huns. Saisang was overjoyed and immediately said, "This result is thanks to General Qin. We will always remember General Qin's kindness..."

"I dare not take it seriously." Qin Feng laughed again: "However, the imperial court has issued an order that the chief evil must be eliminated. Like the rebel Qiang Qu and others, they must obey the law."

Sasan was full of wit.For a long time, his face was cloudy and uncertain, and he didn't say a word.

And Qin Feng saw through Sai Sang's thoughts.

At first, Sai Sang thought that the imperial court would recruit Qiang Qu together.Then nothing happened, and immediately returned to the same calm period as many years ago.But now the imperial court is "half recruiting security", and the imperial court still wants to eliminate the Qiang Canal.However, Qiang Qu still has a certain amount of armed force, and he will definitely not let his hands down.

The confrontation between the Guanjun and Qiangqu on the grassland will definitely affect other tribes.Where are the tribes going?Can the official army win in the end?And Qiang Qu will definitely fail?

It's okay if the official army wins, but what if the official army fails?So what should the Xiongnu tribes like Saisang, who are pro-Han, do?
Sai San thought a lot.

Qin Feng said solemnly at this time: "The Xiongnu have always been the subjects of the great Han Dynasty, but Qiang Qu rebelled, and heaven and earth will not tolerate it. The court understands the righteousness, and knows that tribes like you are under threat by Qiang Qu, so they pardon you. If the tribes If you understand justice, you should help the imperial court suppress the rebellion."

"Yes yes yes..." Sai Sang agreed for a while, but everyone could see that it was very reluctant.

Qin Feng began to emphasize, "Before the Qiang Canal is wiped out, the imperial army will never leave the grassland. If necessary, there will be tens of thousands, 10,000+, or even hundreds of thousands of reinforcements."

When Sai Sang heard this, his expression changed.If the imperial court devotes all its strength to deal with the Xiongnu, and there is a famous general like Qin Feng commanding the battle, then the Xiongnu will never win, and it will be a reappearance of Huo Qubing chasing and killing the Huns hundreds of years ago.From this point of view, Qiang Qu is doomed.

But this is also good news for pro-Han tribes like Saisang.This is a reassurance. Since the imperial court will go all out to destroy the Qiang Qu, it is the right choice for Saisang and the others to choose to attach themselves to the imperial court.

Qin Feng began to raise a point again, "The imperial court pardons you, and you have to make a promise. The imperial court will give the surrendered Xiongnu tribe a chance to prove their loyalty, that is, to assist the officers and soldiers to eliminate the rebellion."

When Sai Sang heard this, he was beating drums in his heart again.

However, Qin Feng began to throw out benefits again. He said: "After the war, the population and grasslands of the rebellious tribes will be distributed to the tribes participating in the suppression of the rebellion according to the size of their military exploits. And the court will also elect a new Hun King from among these people. .”

Sai Sang's eyes lit up when he heard this.

So far, Qin Feng has stated his Xiongnu policy in an orderly manner.Not only pardoned the tribes outside the royal family, but also gave these tribes peace of mind, and finally promised benefits.Of course, after obtaining these, the tribes of the Huns also need to show their loyalty.

How to show loyalty?Naturally, he followed the army and wiped out the Qiang Qu.

Saisang is a smart man, since the court has made up his mind to destroy Qiangqu, he quickly made a wise decision, saying: "General Qin, Saisang made it clear here that we, the Horqin tribe, will support the general in the crusade against the rebellious Qiangqu. "

Qin Feng was very pleased. Although Saisang was the only one to express his opinion, since Saisang could express his opinion, other tribes would do the same.He immediately said in his own way: "This commander thinks that the new King of the Huns must be Chief Saisan."

Saisan's eyes became brighter. The patriarchs of the various tribes of the Huns all dreamed of being the King of the Huns one day, but not everyone had the chance.However, if someone can get the support of a general of Qin Feng's level, it is equivalent to getting the support of the court.Then, becoming king of the Huns is just around the corner.

However, Saisang is a smart person, he doesn't think there is such a good thing as "a big eagle falling from the sky".Although his tribe is very influential in the grassland, there are several tribes with the same influence on the grassland.

Why did Qin Feng choose to support him?

Faced with the possibility of becoming King of the Huns, Saisang felt a little impatient and at a loss. After a while, he said, "General Qin, I wonder what Saisang needs to do?"

Qin Feng began to speak bluntly about this matter, and said with a smile, "Just to be able to marry the eldest daughter of Patriarch Saisang, the most beautiful pearl on the grassland." Your old father-in-law is gone, if Qin Feng doesn't help you, who else will he help?"

"Marry my daughter?" Sai Sang was overjoyed, but suddenly his expression changed.

Qin Feng saw that his face had changed, and he was confused by concern, so he hurriedly asked, "What? Could it be that Patriarch Saisang doesn't want to marry this general?"
