The revival of Shu Han

Chapter 451 The Huns and Xianbei

"My brother pays homage to my elder brother. This time, my brother and my elder brother belong to two groups. It has been a long time since I saw you. Today, I am very happy to see my elder brother in good health."

"Okay, okay, why are you starting to drop your bookbags? Although our Wen family is surnamed Wen, we are destined not to be a literati."

In January 273 AD, when Guan Yi fought Du Yu in the south of Taiyuan County.Wen Yang led more than [-] Han cavalry and [-] Tuoba Xianbei cavalry to the south of Xihe County, and successfully joined forces led by Wen Hu and Liu Meng.

"Brother dares to leave the Tuoba Department at this time, I think the matter of coming to Tuoba Desert Khan has been arranged."

"Well, Si Wenling did it himself, and it was very beautiful."

After Wenyang reported Desert Khan's intentions, Guan Yi transferred Lu Ya to sneak in urgently to Tuoba Department to deal with the matter.

Yes, sneak in.After Lu Ya arrived at the Tuoba tribe, she sat and watched Desert Khan's assassins commanding Jinzuo kill Xilu and Luguan.During this process, Lu Ya just silently collected evidence, protected individual witnesses, and did nothing else.

When Desert Khan gathered some newly recruited tribal nobles to force Tuoba Liwei into the palace.Wen Yang and Lu Yacai stood up, and with all the witnesses and evidence, Tuoba Desert Khan, his followers, and the three hundred Jin Zou Cao were all beheaded.

After such a toss, the three best heirs of the Tuoba Department all died.While mourning, Tuoba Liwei also rationally made the sons of Xilu and Luguan his successors.

Liwei is nearly a hundred years old, and Xilu and Luguan are both in their 40s.According to the practice of men on the grassland generally becoming fathers at the age of fifteen or sixteen, among the many sons of Xilu and Luguan, some of them are adults.But Tuoba Liwei, who has a clear understanding of the facts, is very clever to make the two youngest sons of Xilu and Luguan as heirs: one is three years old and the other is five years old.

On the grassland, only strength is respect.No matter where the two little boys sat, they couldn't convince the crowd.So Tuoba Liwei's meaning is very clear: I know that if our tribe does not split, you big guys don't feel at ease.So I chose two young children as heirs.As for me, after all, I am too old to live long.They haven't grown up when I die.In order to ensure their own safety and status, they must be closely attached to you big fellows in order to exist.So, please rest assured.Our tribe will not be too strong, and will fall into internal friction for a long time in the future, let alone pose a threat to you.

"So that's how it is, brother, from what you said, that old man Tuoba Liwei is already a mature man. He didn't realize that we deliberately asked Jin Zuo Cao to kill his two sons."

"Of course he can see this kind of thing. But the root cause of all these consequences is not the Jin State? Isn't it the Desert Khan? We saved Li Wei's life by taking action at the critical moment."

"Okay, I really don't understand these twists and turns, and I'm not interested in trying to figure it out. Brother just arrived, so let me introduce you to Xihe."

"Good, please speak, Brother Yu is all ears."

"In the past two months, our army and the main force of the Xiongnu cavalry led by Liu Yuanhai have fought three times on a large scale, and there is no clear winner. There have been sporadic small-scale battles and hundreds of times when the scouts from both sides met... In general The enemy's casualties were about 8000, and the number of our army was about the same. Among them, Liu Meng's Tiefu cavalry lost more than 4000 people, and our army had more than 3000.

"Hiss~~ The combat power of the Huns is not weak."

"Well, the combat power of the Huns is indeed not weak, but the more important thing is that Liu Yuanhai has a deep understanding of the art of war. On the battlefield, to be honest, Liu Yuanhai is far behind Liu Yuanhai in terms of adapting to the situation. It is personal martial arts. Not as good as that fellow."

"Interesting, I understand why Da Sima is so determined to kill Liu Yuanhai."

While the two brothers were talking, Bei Gongxiong said outside the tent: "Two generals, Da Sima has a battle report from Jiexiu."

"Oh? I think our army won. Ziyang, send it in quickly for a look."

Guan Yi's letter was very long. In addition to giving a detailed report on the situation of this battle, he also gave detailed instructions on the development of the next battle in Xihe.

Soon after this day, with the arrival of reinforcements from Daijun, the number of Han troops and Tiefu cavalry in Xihe returned to about [-].A large number of scouts were quickly sent out, and a large number of wooden boards were set up on various traffic arteries on the Xihe grassland to announce.

The geographical area of ​​Xihe County is not very large.But due to the complex terrain.So it doesn't matter if it was Wen Hu or Liu Meng before, or it doesn't matter if it's Wen Yang later.There is no guarantee that Liu Yuan's main force can be caught quickly and accurately.That being the case, I won't go looking for you anymore, you can go and see for yourself.

A large part of Guan Yi's letters to Wen Yang was about propaganda against the Huns, because most of the Huns cavalry were illiterate.So Guan Yi specifically pointed out in the letter: Don't just insert a wooden sign and write words such as the defeat of Jin and Bingzhou.Instead, we want to make a large-scale, full-page poster.The pictures are extremely ingenious and the connotation can be ignored, but the sound should be easy to understand, so that those illiterates can understand what we mean at a glance.

Then Wenyang set up drawing boards everywhere on the Xihe grassland according to Guan Yi's instructions.Well, it may not be accurate to say that the drawing board is replaced by modern vocabulary: a large billboard next to the highway.

In these billboards, Wen Yang expressed the following meanings: First, the Battle of Bingzhou was over, and Jin was defeated.Second, we big men will not embarrass you Huns, we only need the heads of Liu Yuan and his son, hand them over, and you will be fine.Third, if you dare to continue to protect Liu Yuan and his son, hum, we will start to investigate your relatives who escaped from the Xiongnu cavalry and stayed in Pingzhou.Start with your wives and sons, then your parents, and then your other relatives.

In short, we will no longer take the initiative to search for and attack you.We're going back to Ping Zhou to kill.When you hand over Liu Yuan and his son, we will stop killing people.

This new policy will of course arouse Liu Meng's dissatisfaction.But it's just dissatisfaction.

Therefore, this moment, that moment.

With the fall of Shangdang County, Luoyang encountered a substantial threat.Anyone can see that unless Ji Han makes serious mistakes or civil strife, the direction of this war will not change.At this time, sitting on the wall is the most stupid choice.

Moreover, after Ji Han completely opened up the Xihe grain road, the entire strategic environment has completely improved, not to mention.With the help of Tuoba Desert Khan, Tuoba Xianbei was also captured.In this way, of course Ji Han can be tougher on the Huns-I can't bloodbath your entire tribe, but I should kill the families of those who are against me in your tribe, right?Besides, I gave them a notice. They don't cherish it themselves, so they can't blame me.

Soon, in March of this year, when the Huns in Pingzhou were really killed by Wen Yang and others who went south, nearly ten thousand people were killed.For hundreds of years, the head of the Huyan tribe whose daughter served as Shan Yuyan often came to Jiexiu with the heads of Liu Bao and Liu Yuan.

"Hehehe, Patriarch Huyan, how do I know if these two heads are real?"

"Reporting to Grand Sima, Liu Bao and his son are noble people in our Xiongnu. There are many people who know him, and it is easy to verify. Especially Liu Yuan, who has stayed in Luoyang for many years, and many high-ranking officials from Jin are familiar with him. Among other things, even the Great Han's General Pingbei knew Liu Yuan."

"En." After looking at Liu Yuan's head carefully for a while, Guan Yi smiled relaxedly, then waved his hand casually, and asked the guard to take down the box containing the two heads.

"what's your name?"

"Hu Yanyou, a barbarian, pays homage to the great Han Da Sima."

"Hu Yanyou? As far as I know, your sister is Liu Yuan's wife. You said, you are an uncle, but you actually killed your uncle. People like you should also die together Woolen cloth."

"Caomin felt that he didn't deserve to die, and he wouldn't die."

"Oh? Interesting, tell me the reason."

"First, I didn't kill Liu Yuan and his son. They stabbed each other to commit suicide. I just cut off their heads from the corpses."

And this secret?Hey, he really deserves to be the hero of the grassland, he is really ruthless.It's completely conceivable, when their father and son confronted each other, the kind of unwillingness and resentment they felt, right?Well, Liu Yuanhai is indeed a great talent, but unfortunately, he is not a talent of our Han people.Then you must die!

"Secondly, before the father and son committed suicide by stabbing each other, Liu Bao had only one son, Liu Yuan, who survived. And Liu Yuan has just been crowned, and has no son yet. That is to say, now only Liu Meng is left in the direct line of Luan Ti's family. Pulse. For hundreds of years, we Huns have used the Luan Ti family’s men as Shan Yu and the Huyan family’s daughters as the Yan family. So..."

Hey, what do I think, there isn't a single idiot among these guys!Well, you succeeded in convincing me.

"My big man is a big country in the world, and the promises made must be fulfilled. Otherwise, the country will lose its faith. Therefore, sooner or later, this right virtuous king will be canonized by my big man as the Great Chanyu of the Huns. However, this official feels that, You Xiongnu Shanyu’s surname is Luan Ti. It’s wrong that the virtuous kings of the left and right also have the surname Luan Ti. Therefore, Huyan’s family and Juqu’s family, such prominent families in the Huns, should also be virtuous kings.”

"Everything depends on the ruling of the Great Sima. The Huyan family must follow the lead of the Great Sima."

Although he couldn't completely snap the finger (minus half), Liu Bao's department was finished.The remaining Liu Meng was not accepted by the left and the center because of the problem of the Tiefu people.And now the contradiction between the left and the center has also emerged.Well, Tuoba split and the Huns split.Barely considered unsatisfactory.For the rest, after I take down Luoyang, I will slowly argue with you.
