Chapter 456: Different Dreams in the Same Bed
The endless city is a city in Beiping County, Youzhou. Right Beiping County is adjacent to other races, so only the border city will focus on building, and the endless city is in the middle of Right Beiping County, so naturally it did not take too much effort to build. However, all the cities on the border will be stronger than the cities in the Central Plains, and if the alien race wants to take any city in Youzhou, it will have to leave countless soldiers, and the alien race is not good at attacking the city, and the losses are even heavier. However, now Gongsun Chan is fighting with Yuan Shao and Yuan Chang, and most of the soldiers in Youzhou have been transferred, except for the border city with a large army stationed, the other cities basically only have about 1,000 soldiers and horses to maintain law and order. Therefore, after the coalition army assembled by Liu He entered the territory of Youzhou, it was basically an unhindered siege of the city and the land, and in addition, Liu He was the son of Liu Yu, the former assassin, and some of the generals and officials who defended the city were Liu Yu's old subordinates, so they did not stop Liu He's army from leaving. Of course, there are also people who are inclined to Gongsun Zhan, so it is inevitable that there will be a fight, but with more than 1,000 soldiers, how can they stop the pace of more than 80,000 soldiers and horses?
And the endless city is a city recently conquered by Liu He's coalition army, and more than 80,000 troops are also resting in the city.
At this time, in a mansion in the Taishou Mansion of the Endless City, a group of people were quietly discussing something.
"Young boy, these aliens are too vicious, and it seems that it is a wrong choice for us to unite with them. ”
It was a middle-aged man in a pale blue Confucian robe who spoke, but seeing that his brows were slightly furrowed, his eyes were full of anger, and his anger was mixed with a little regret. And the person he was talking to was a man about thirty years old, if Yuan Chang was here, he would naturally know that these two people were Qi Zhou and Liu He. Liu He and Yuan Chang had already finished discussing and returned from Tongxian. was about to consult with several of his henchmen, but he didn't want Qi Zhou to complain to him.
Liu He naturally knows about the nature of the alien race. And after discussing with Yuan Chang, he has already made a decision. I just want to discuss it with a few of his henchmen.
In addition to Qi Zhou and Liu He, the other three were Xian Yufu, Xian Yuyin, the cavalry commander, and Karasuma Sima Yan Rou, who was elected as the leader of the coalition army. Although Liu He is the master, Liu He also knows his ability, and he is not qualified for the position of this leader at all, and Yan Rou is talented and has prestige among other races, so everyone agrees to let Yan Rou serve as this leader.
Liu He glanced at Xian Yufu, Xian Yuyin and Yan Rou. Shen Sheng asked, "What do you think about this?"
"What Qi Zhou said is very true, these alien races are too ferocious, and his subordinates are eager to kill them. It's just that if you want to avenge the old master, you have to rely on the power of another race. Now let the aliens be arrogant for a while, and when Gongsun Chan is destroyed, we will clean them up. ”
Xian Yuyin, who was wearing jet-black armor, said angrily, he was also angry about the behavior of the alien race. Although Xian Yuyin's name sounds like an alien. However, in fact, Xian Yuyin is a Han man.
Speaking of which, the ancestors of Xian Yuyin are really Xianbei people. But. Later, because of some things, Xian Yuyin's ancestors were framed and fled to live in Youzhou, and intermarried with the Han people, which was passed down from generation to generation, and the Han blood of Xian Yuyin's body accounted for most of it, so Xian Yuyin has always thought that he is a Han person.
"Second brother, be cautious!"
Xian Yufu looked at Xian Yuyin, who was shouting there, and scolded in a low voice. That's right. This Xian Yuyin and Xian Yufu are brothers, and Xian Yufu is brothers. Xian Yu Yin is a younger brother.
"Got it, big brother!"
Xian Yuyin listened to Xian Yufu's words. As if remembering something, he glanced cautiously and quickly out of the room, and then said no more.
The reason why Xian Yuyin is so behaving is because since the army entered the territory of Youzhou, the behavior of the alien race made Liu He feel dissatisfied, and the two sides quarreled many times, although the leader of the alien race said many times that he had warned the soldiers below, but the soldiers of the alien race did not change in the slightest, and still went their own way, as long as they were not fools, they all knew what was going on. Since then, Liu and the others have found that people of different races often appear around their residences, saying that they are guards, but in fact they are spying. Such a blatant behavior naturally made Liu and his side dissatisfied, but people used guards as an excuse, what else could Liu and them say? Moreover, the number of people on the other side was several times larger than theirs, and if there was a conflict, it would inevitably be Liu He's side that would suffer. Therefore, Liu He could only swallow his anger, and this was one of the reasons why he found Yuan Chang.
"Yan Sima, what do you think?"
Liu He turned his head to look at Yan Rou, Yan Rou was always resourceful and prestigious, and if he wanted to take action, he still needed Yan Rou's nod.
Yan Rou smiled slightly and said in a low voice: "Looking at the young prince's expression, I think that the young prince has already negotiated with Yuan Chang when he went to Yuan Chang's army this time. What does the young boy command, but he said that his subordinates have nothing to say. ”
For the people in the house, Liu He is very trusting. These subordinates are all Liu Yu's old subordinates, and after learning that he was recruiting troops to seek revenge on Gongsun Zhan, he brought people to join him without saying a word. If he couldn't even trust these subordinates, Liu He didn't know who else he could trust.
"Okay, since everyone has the same idea, then I'll talk about the plan discussed with Yuan Taishou. ”
Liu He nodded with satisfaction, he actually had a decision in his heart, but he didn't know what these henchmen thought, so he didn't say it directly. It's not that Liu He doesn't believe in a few of his henchmen, if these henchmen can't believe it, he really has no one to believe it. Therefore, Liu He attaches great importance to the ideas of these henchmen. Therefore, he let a few people express their opinions first, if there is a disagreement, then Liu He will have a good talk with them, knowing the pros and cons. However, it is fortunate that several of his henchmen have the same thoughts, and they are all dissatisfied with the alien race, so that he can avoid wasting his tongue and talking more.
After carefully finishing the plan proposed by Yuan Chang, Yan Rou, Qi Zhou, Xian Yufu and Xian Yuyin all nodded lightly, indicating that they agreed with this plan. Afterwards, everyone dispersed, found their own confidants, and prepared to start carrying out the plan.
At the same time, in the other courtyard of this residence, there was also a group of people discussing something.
There were more than a dozen of them in this group, and their clothes were obviously different from those of the Central Plains, and it was obvious that this group of people was the leader of the alien race united with Liu He.
Interracial is just a catch-all term. There are also many races of interracial races.
In 221 BC, Qin Shi Huang unified the six kingdoms and established the Qin Empire, the first unified feudal dynasty in Chinese history. The territory of the Qin Empire encompassed a number of ethnic minority areas in the south, and had little contact with the nomadic peoples of the north. It's just that General Meng Tian once attacked the Xiongnu to recover the Hetao Plain.
In 202 BC, Liu Bang overthrew the Qin Empire and established the Western Han Dynasty. Since the founding of the Western Han Dynasty, the Xiongnu, which rose in the north, relied on its military superiority. Constantly exerting military aggression and political pressure on the Central Plains.
In 200 B.C., the Xiongnu leader Mao Dunshan Yu led 400,000 cavalry to surround Liu Bang, the founding emperor of the Han Dynasty who sent troops to resist the invasion of the Xiongnu, in Baishan Mountain (now northeast of Datong City, Shanxi). This is the famous "Siege of Baiden" in history.
This was the first large-scale military confrontation between the nomadic regime in the north and the Han regime in the Central Plains, and the facts showed that the strategic advantage at that time was on the side of the Xiongnu. The Han Empire gathered strength in order to recuperate. During the sixty or seventy years of the reign of Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty, Emperor Wen and Emperor Jing had always adopted a humiliating policy of "harmony", sending a large number of goods every year, but they were never able to satisfy the endless greed of the Xiongnu**.
In 141 BC, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che ascended the throne. After more than 60 years of recuperation and recuperation, the Han Empire was unprecedentedly strong, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty launched a large-scale counterattack war against the Xiongnu in order to promote the power of the Han nation, remove the threat of the Xiongnu to the Han, and get rid of the Xiongnu's insatiable extortion, and launched a large-scale counterattack war against the Xiongnu, and a series of battles to the Xiongnu dealt a fatal blow. It was expelled to the north of the desert, and from then on "the Xiongnu fled far away, and there was no royal court in the south of the desert".
The Xiongnu were the most powerful northern alien race since the Qin Dynasty to the Han Dynasty. It is also the biggest alien enemy of the Han people. In addition to the Xiongnu, there were other alien races.
For example, the Donghu alien tribe was destroyed by the Xiongnu during the Qin Dynasty and split into Karasuma and Xianbei. And now the biggest alien enemies north of Youzhou are Xianbei and Karasuma. Karasuma has been following the customs of the nomads since the split of Donghu and has survived in a nomadic way.
However, the Xianbei people had different opinions.
Some Xianbei people believe that the nomadic way of life should be preserved, so that they can be the real eagles of the grassland. However, there are also some Xianbei people who hate the lifestyle of living without a fixed place and want to enter the Central Plains. Live like the Han Chinese. Therefore, Xianbei was divided again. It has become the eastern Xianbei and the western Xianbei. The eastern Xianbei occupies the territory adjacent to Youzhou, and has been preparing to enter the Central Plains. Perhaps many people don't know about this eastern Xianbei. However, speaking of Murong Fu, who has always wanted to restore the country in Tianlong Babu, many people will understand that this Murong Fu is the descendant of Xianbei in the east. This time, it was the people of Xianbei in the east who united with Liu He. As for the Xianbei people in the west, they live in the territory adjacent to Liangzhou, and they pursue the customs of the grassland, preferring to live on the grassland. If you have a map to refer to, you can find that part of Karasuma's territory is in the middle of the eastern Xianbei and the western Xianbei, and as for what the reason, it is nothing more than the old story of Xianbei and Karasuma before the split.
This time the interracial coalition army, the main forces are Karasuma and Eastern Xianbei, of course, there are also some other small groups of alien races, but they can't be compared with these two forces, so there is nothing to say.
Of course, the way in which the aliens are governed is not the same as that of the Han Chinese.
The Han people talk about the legal system of kings, and "the prince of heaven and earth" sounds like the king is ranked third. However, as long as the ruling class has a little brain, it knows that heaven and earth are only a means to rule the people, so that the king can rule the people better. Therefore, in the land of the Han people, the king is the largest person. However, these kings had to put on a fair, just, and open face, and the rule of law was established. Even if you are a king, you have to act according to the law, not do whatever you want. Even if you want to punish a person, you have to convict a crime, and these are not the same.
There are also kings of the alien race, called Shan Yu.
As long as it is a king of a different race, whether it is Karasuma, the Xiongnu, or the king of Xianbei, it is called Shan Yu. In the alien race, Shan Yu is the title of the emperor. If the king of a tribe is not recognized by others as Shan Yu, it is normal for the other party to look down on him, and it is normal to cause a war. And among the aliens, there is no legal system at all, and every qiē speaks with his fists. Whoever has the big fist has the right to speak. As for the rule of law, what is that? It's like saying that a person who has been killed is not guilty of any rebellion in a foreign race. If you are killed, it means that you are not strong enough, and if you die, you will die in vain. Whoever can take the position has the right to speak. Of course, there is actually no difference between the Han people, and the dynastic changes of all dynasties are all subordinates who overthrow the royal family of the previous dynasty in order to become kings. The approach is actually the same, except that the Han people say it more tactfully. For example, the Qing monarch's side, the emperor is mediocre, the people have never lived, etc., unlike the foreign race, which is simply and directly. If you can't do it, step down, and if you have the ability, you will come to power.
There were a dozen people in the room. However, there were six of them in Karasuma, five in the eastern Xianbei, and the remaining four were the leaders of the rest of the small clans.
In addition to Liu He's soldiers and horses, Karasuma, Eastern Xianbei and eight other tribes raised more than 60,000 soldiers and horses. Karasuma has 20,000, Eastern Xianbei has 20,000, and the remaining six tribes have only 20,000. Therefore, they have no right to speak, so they say that in the past, in the alien race, what they look at is strength. It's not seniority.
"Recently, the Han family has become more and more dissatisfied with us, what do you think?"
It was a strong man with a scumbag face and a fierce face that spoke. And this person is not unknown. It is Uyan, one of the three kings of Karasuma.
The way of life of the alien race is in the form of a tribe, which is equivalent to a village in the Central Plains. And the leader of each tribe is just like the village chief, but the leader of the foreign tribe has great power and has the power of life and death over the people of the tribe, unlike the village chief who wants to take people and have crimes. The tribes of the alien race are large and small, and thus gather into one large tribe. Just like Karasuma, it is made up of hundreds of small tribes, and this generation of Karasuma King Tonton is the leader of Karasuma's largest tribe. That's why he was able to sit comfortably in the position of Karasuma King. In addition to Karasuma King, there are three other large tribes. Each tribe has tens of thousands of people, and these are the three kings of Karasuma: Nanlou, Sufuyan, and Uyan. And Uyan. It is the tribal leader of the right North Ping Karasuma, who calls himself the King of Khanlu.
This time, Uyan, one of the three kings of Karasuma, appeared, and naturally he was the boss of the alien alliance, and none of the alien leaders present could compare his status with Karasuma. Leaving aside the other small tribes for the time being, why is there no one in the Eastern Xianbei who can have the same status as Wuyan?
As mentioned earlier, the eastern Xianbei survived in the way of the Han people. Therefore, many of the ways are the same as those of the Han people. Just like when two countries go to war, under normal circumstances, where would the prince run to the battlefield? Everyone knows that the battlefield is very dangerous, and there is a possibility of dying at any time. Nomads are different, if they want to gain the admiration of others, they have to go to the battlefield and use their strength to let others know how powerful they are. It's also a loss to just attack Youzhou to deal with Gongsun Zhan, if it is a collective attack on the Central Plains, I am afraid that Karasuma King Badun will personally lead the troops. Therefore, Eastern Xianbei only sent a general Murong Yu to command the troops this time, and his status was not comparable to that of Wuyan, so naturally he could not compete with Wuyan for the position of commander.
Hearing Wu Yan's question, Murong Yu frowned and said in a low voice: "I have already said before, now that we are united with Liu and them, we should take into account their thoughts, restrain the soldiers under our command, and stop raping and plundering, which will cause trouble to our actions." Since their protests are getting stronger and stronger, then we should do our best to restrain the soldiers below, and if they break the law again, we will punish them severely. ”
Murong Yu is a general in Xianbei in the east, so he naturally followed the ideas of the Han people. In order to bring the people of the territory to their hearts, it is naturally unwise to commit adultery, commit adultery, plunder, burn, kill, and plunder.
However, before Murong Yu finished speaking, Wu Yan and the others all looked at Murong Yu with strange expressions.
Wu Yan and the others didn't understand Murong Yu's thoughts, but they knew what they meant. In Wuyan's view, the Xianbei people in the east are not worthy of being the children of the grassland at all, but the people in the west are the real children of the grassland. In the eyes of the alien races on the grasslands, the Han people in the Central Plains are just like the cattle and sheep they raise, slaughtering them when they need them, and free-ranging them when they don't need them. According to Murong Yu, he can't eat cattle and sheep if he wants to? However, Wu Yan didn't argue with Murong Yu about anything, he knew the thoughts of Eastern Xianbei, after all, he was one of the three kings of Karasuma. After all, the two sides are now in alliance, and the soldiers and horses of Xianbei in the east are not weaker than Karasuma, and if there is a contradiction, Uyan does not want to.
"General Murong Yu, what you said is not right. ”
A strong man with a hideous face stepped forward, he was the leader of a small tribe, Seymour, but he was more inclined to Karasuma.
"Our sons and daughters of the steppe have always behaved like this, what is there to worry about? If we are afraid, how can we soar on the prairie? Now Liu and they need our troops to avenge him, and we can take the opportunity to get what we need, if they are not satisfied, we will withdraw our troops, will they really dare to let us withdraw? When the time comes, I am afraid that it will be their people who will die. ”
People of different races have always spoken simply and directly, without the slightest tactfulness. And this leader is not afraid that Murong Yu will be dissatisfied with him, he has taken refuge in Karasuma, which is equivalent to Karasuma's people, could it be that the people of Xianbei in the east still dare to deal with them?
"The Tatam chief is right, what if we kill and rob them?"
"The Han people are our cattle and sheep, and we don't need to be polite at all. ”
"It's just that if they like to protest, let them protest, and we just do what we want. ”
After Tatam finished speaking, there was a voice of approval. In the end, Murong Yu could only shake his head helplessly, after all, everyone is now in the same boat, and it will not be good for everyone if there is a conflict. Moreover, it was not he Xianbei who was killed, he just said it, and he would not contradict others because of this.
"Haha, having said that, we still have to restrain the soldiers under our command, and we also have to take care of the thoughts of the allies. Well, it's not too early, everyone is going to rest!"
Wu Yan hid and stopped the meeting, and pretended to sell a good to Murong Yu, as for what he would do, Murong Yu didn't know, and Murong Yu didn't want to care. (To be continued...... )
