He Hun is the same age as Murong Zhan, and he is also in his forties this year.

The Qianren were originally Hu in the Western Regions, and then their country was destroyed by the Xiongnu and became a slave of the Xiongnu. At the end of the Western Tang Dynasty, the Huhu of Mobei entered the block, and the Qianren were one of them. Because of the social and cultural backwardness of its tribe, it failed to establish political power, and successively attached itself to the Qin State of the Xiongnu Zhao clan and the Wei State of Xianbei Murong. In modern times, they migrated to the Jianghuai region, taking advantage of the civil strife in the Wei State, and gradually rose up in the region.

He Hun inherited the position of the ministry before he reached the weak crown, and his people were strong and courageous, moody and invisible, and resourceful.

In the early days of He Hunxie's succession, his uncles, cousins, and younger brothers had set off several struggles for the throne, but in the end he was victorious. Although he is an uncle and a brother, he dares to compete with him for power, and he is also regarded as an enemy by He Hunxie, who splits his uncle and brothers who compete with him for the position of the leader, and denounces his cousin as a "concubine and concubine", and feeds him to the dog.

Since then, he has served as the leader of the department for more than 20 years, dominating the southeast, invading Jiangzuo in the south, disturbing Hebei in the west, almost no year without fighting, rare defeats, not only in the prestige of the people is unmatched, and because of the large number of soldiers, can be good at fighting, was worshiped by Wei as the general of Tianzhu, Taishi, and in the past few years, he called himself the king of heaven, which is really a powerful force in the sea at present.

Sitting on the golden couch inlaid with jade beads, He Hun Xie hugged a young man with heavy makeup, glanced into the hall, and asked, "What did Tang Er say?" ”

In the hall, there was a Wenchen dressed as a Tang man, pouting his buttocks and lying on the ground, and said tremblingly: "Tang Er is afraid of the Heavenly King and does not dare to make an alliance with the Heavenly King. ”

"Do you think I'm a three-year-old? Coax me with that! ”

"How dare you!"

"What 'don't you dare to make an alliance with me'? Still look down on me! They think that I am rude and do not know the etiquette, and that they refuse to make an alliance with me. ”

The Tang courtiers were terrified, sweating like rain, incoherent, muttering, and not knowing what to answer.

He Hun's heresy is right, the monarchs and ministers of the Eastern Tang Dynasty are indeed not "afraid" of him, but "unwilling" to form an alliance with him.

The reason for the refusal to form an alliance is not because he thinks it is rude.

Speaking of which, the monarchs and ministers of the Eastern Tang Dynasty also have backbone.

Soon after the move, out of the purpose of uniting people's hearts and uniting overseas Chinese and natives, Wang, the prime minister of the Eastern Tang Dynasty, put forward the slogan of "recovering China".

Although it is because of the infighting of the gate valve, the recovery of Shenzhou is just a slogan until now, and several so-called northern expeditions have been in vain, but when the Xiongnu Zhao clan was founded, in order to resist the southern invasion of the Huns, Jiang Zuowei had an alliance with the Murong clan who was still in Liaodong at that time, and the Qianren, at that time, were the most ferocious minions under the Huns' account, and they were the only ones who had fought in Jiangnan among the Huns, and they were really feuding with the Eastern Tang Dynasty; Because of this, although the Murong clan replaced the Xiongnu Zhao clan and has now become an enemy country of the Eastern Tang Dynasty, the Eastern Tang Dynasty still refused, and was probably under the banner of "recovering Shenzhou", and could not let go of resentment and agreed to form an alliance with He Hun.

He Hun ravaged the young man's tender body in his arms and said, "What are you talking about?" ”

The Tang courtier said, "Minister, minister......"

"Alright, you go down. Tang Er refuses to ally with me, and you can't change it. How can I blame you? Thou hast thou hast thou hast thou had, and I have prepared some brocade and gold cakes for thee, and thou hast gone and fetched them. ”

The Tang courtiers were relieved, and they fell backwards on their knees and went out of the palace.

Outside the hall, he stood up with his sore knees, wiped his forehead and rejoiced, and said in his heart: "I lived one more day!" ”

But he said that He Hun in the hall was evil, and he groaned for a while, and said: "Xianbei Nu summoned me into the capital again, saying that he wanted to be the prime minister to let me." Hmph, when I'm stupid? Tricked me into Yecheng and slashed me with a knife? I don't pay attention to it.

"But in the past few months, Xianbei Nu has summoned me twice, such urgency, I see, Murong Wei is afraid that death is not far away! Murong Hui's sons, Murong Yan has a slight scheming, but he is not benevolent and virtuous; Murong Wutai is a small Gan, and he is impatient; The rest of Murong Ge, Murong Quan and the like, mediocre children! It's not worth mentioning! Murong Zhan is a little capable, but I expect that after Murong Yan's death, Murong Yan will not be able to tolerate him, there will be internal strife between the two, Murong Zhan is a pedantic person, ten eight or nine will be slaughtered by Murong Yan, and it is not a big worry.

"Tang Er doesn't want to be an alliance with me, so that's it! With 100,000 elite soldiers from my various departments, as long as Murong Wei dies, I can also defeat Yecheng! Only to help my momentum, Tang'er's refusal to form an alliance cannot be exposed; You just have to publicize it to the outside world, and say that Tang'er has made an alliance with me! I take Yecheng, they take Luoyang! Murong Wei is about to die, Yecheng is in the government and the opposition, and the people are panicked, and they must not have the time to distinguish between reality and fiction. This will be beneficial for my western attack in Japan! ”

Several people in the hall are all confidants of He Hun evil, most of them are Qiang, the same as He Hun evil, with white skin and thick hair, high nose and green eyes, and there are two people who are not Qiang, one is a Xianbei person, and the other is a Hun Zahu.

Everyone responded: "The king of heaven is far-sighted, clever, and his ministers obey orders." ”

A whirling moan sounded, and it was the young man in He Hunxie's arms who was pinched and hurt by He Hunxie.

He Hun laughed and called the guards at the gate of the palace, saying, "Bring in some slaves and fine wine, and cheer me and the generals in!" ”

Soon, more than 100 slaves and maidservants were brought in by the guards.

First, the wine and meat were laid out, and He Hun and the generals drank bitterly. When they are drunk, drums and other musical instruments are played, thirty or twenty ** dance, and the remaining slaves and maids are combined in pairs, ** between the feasts. He Hun watched the evil rise of the ground, his lust was full of lust, and he pressed down on the young man in his arms, and he led him in public. The generals have their own beautiful women, some are shy, just caressing, and some are open, such as He Hun is the same, and he also indulges in lust on the spot.

In the majestic and magnificent hall, for a while, there is a ****, a miasma, where is there still half a point of solemnity?

……

He Hun's ferocious debauchery is something that Xin Er can't imagine no matter what.

A piece of news from Jiangzuo also surprised Xin Er.

At the end of July, Gao Chong, who sent Jiangzuo, returned to Guyin, the royal city of Dingxi, after hardships.

After receiving the reply that the bald Boye "the Tuoba clan is willing to form an alliance and share the Shuo side with Dingxi", Xin Er was hoarding grain and preparing for war, and after receiving the report that Gao Chong had returned, he immediately put down the military affairs at hand and met with him.

Gao Chong's envoy went back and forth, thousands of miles, lost a lot of weight, and darkened a lot, but the mission was accomplished, he was in a happy mood, and his spirit was still good.

He said: "Charge to the south of the Yangtze River, meet the Son of Heaven, dedicate tributes, and prepare to the court about the affairs of our country in the northwest, resisting the Hu of the world, and the people in the territory." The Son of Heaven is the king of the royal family, and worships the king of the festival, Shizhong, Taiwei, Zhenxi general, Dudu Long, Qin, Sha Zhuzhou military, Huyi school captain, Longzhou pastor, Dingxi king.

"I also heard that the general went west to the Western Regions and recovered the three counties of Qinzhou, etc., and the general was loyal and commendable, revitalized the prestige of our country, and awarded the general to scatter the cavalry; The general of the minister said that he had the ambition of conquering Qin in the east and recovering Guanzhong for the country, and the Son of Heaven then increased the military of Yongzhou by the king, and the general was captured to worship the general, and led the history of Yongzhou assassination. ”

The free riding permanent attendant, the same grade as the waiter, is also the third grade, and similar to the waiter, and it is also a common "plus official" in this dynasty.

The free rider Chang Shilang was both clear and idle, which was valued by the previous Cheng Dynasty and the early years of the current dynasty, but after he could become an additional official, because of his increased number, the value also declined, and the secretary Lang who was one level lower than it was replaced by him, becoming more and more prominent, and was considered to be "superior in quality".

Despite this, the casual cavalry is still a noble official position, and those who are not high-ranking cannot occupy the position, and the Tang family's clan is in office, and the starting official is usually this position.

didn't get a "servant", but got a "free rider regular attendant", which is not bad.

What especially satisfied Xin Er was that after Gao Chong's efforts, the Jiangzuo Imperial Court awarded him the two positions of "General of Conquest" and "Yongzhou Assassin History".

The grades of the conscripted generals and the auxiliary generals are the same, and the grades of the servants and the scattered cavalry are also the same, both of which are three grades, but the gold content of these three grades is obviously very different from the "three grades" of the "auxiliary generals". The "Auxiliary General" was awarded to Xin Er by Dingxi, and the Jiangzuo court did not recognize it at all; The general was captured by Jiang Zuo, and this is a real deal.

"Yongzhou", in the Western Tang Dynasty, was under the jurisdiction of Anding, Fufeng, Fengyi and other counties, that is, the hinterland of Guanzhong in Puqin. This position was given to Xin Er, because this place was still under the control of Pu Qin, and it was quite a "remote leader", but at least literally, Xin Er already had these counties under his rule.

Jiang Zuo's three official positions were obtained, although Jiang Zuo gave the king of the west an increase in the "military supervision of Yongzhou", in the military, Xin Er is still under his control, but strictly speaking, Xin Er is no longer only a courtier of Dingxi, but also a heavy minister of Jiang Zuo who can be ranked with the king of Dingxi.

The news is good news.

What Xin Er didn't expect was bad news.

Gao Chong said: "Fill the resignation of Kyoto, on the way back to Dingxi, pass through Jingzhou. Jingzhou Assassin Shi Huan Gong summoned Chong, asked about the details of Dingxi, and said that he wanted to attack Shu, hoping to join forces with our country and attack it from the north and south. ”

The Li family of the Di people has occupied Shuzhong for many years, if Shuzhong is restored, it can open up the contact channel between Dingxi and Jiangzuo, connect Qinzhou, Shuzhong and Jingzhou together, and will also be able to form a semi-encirclement situation for Puqin, so that Dingxi no longer has to face Puqin alone, which is conducive to reducing the pressure on Dingxi, from this aspect, it is a good thing to cut down Shu; But if you cut down Shu, what should Shuo Fang do?

It's still the same sentence: Dingxi has few small people, and can only support one war, and cannot fight on both sides at the same time.

Xin Er asked, "When does Duke Huan want to cut down Shu?" ”

"I said it was after autumn."

"After autumn", this overlaps with the time of Xin Er's attack on Shuofang.

Xin Er asked: "The intention of Duke Huan to cut down Shu, has the imperial court accepted it?" ”

"Not yet."

"Who else knows about this except you?"

Gao Chong replied: "Chong returned to Qinzhou, so that the fox thorn Shi greeted Yu Chong and asked the envoy what he had seen." I told him about it. ”
