Chapter 803: Public Enemy of the Prairie
The number of times the supreme ruler of the Central Plains Dynasty appeared in the steppe was only a limited number.
The earliest was the first emperor to patrol the Hetao, at that time, even if the Huns were weak, they made an attack, and the result was naturally that they were taught how to be a man by the Great Wall Army.
The second supreme ruler of the Central Plains Dynasty who appeared in the grassland was Liu Bang, who had just won the civil war, and he was majestic and high-spirited with the elite of a hundred battles in the civil war, and with the high morale of repeated victories, with the confidence of solving the scourge of the Xiongnu at one time, he was divided into several roads to the north.
This time, the new generation of rulers of the Central Plains Dynasty could not teach the Huns how to be like the former Qin army, and it was not possible to say how miserable the loss was, but the logistics line was cut off, and there was no mobility, Liu Bang's main force was trapped in Baishan Mountain, and the rest of the Han army and the Huns fought vigorously, otherwise the Han family would not have reached a "mutual non-aggression" treaty with the Huns.
It's a very practical thing, if you can persuade the Huns to withdraw just by offering some beauties and then giving away wealth, it is definitely a problem with the brains of the Huns.
You have to know one thing deeply, at that time, Mao Dun completed the war against Donghu, and the war against the Yueshi people was also in an advantage, which was precisely the moment when the Huns were most arrogant, no matter how much beauty and wealth were more important than killing the Central Plains Emperor and then entering the world of flowers? It must have been the Han army that gave the Xiongnu certain losses on the battlefield, so that the Huns thought that the gains outweighed the losses if they continued to fight, so they would withdraw their troops and return to the grassland.
The Huns knew that the price of going south was too great and they had been hesitating, they had been chasing the remnants of the Donghu in the east, and on the other hand, they were chasing and killing the fleeing Yueshi people in the west, and the Han family was only a temptation and a limited raid.
By the stage of Lao Shangdanyu, the Xiongnu and the Han family under his rule were the most "friendly" period, it was not that the Huns suddenly became better, but the cost of invading the Han family in the south was really large, and they found a good place in the Western Regions that could be grabbed with a lot of money by casually walking, and they only found the Han people to die when they were sick.
"The third Son of Heaven to inspect the grasslands was Emperor Xiaowu of the Han Dynasty, who inspected the Hetao after repeated victories over the Xiongnu." Liu Yan is still quite familiar with that period of history, and Liu Che's inspection of the Hetao has great political significance, showing the importance of the Hetao and encouraging the field corps: "At that time, the Huns had entered the stage of surviving, but they still organized a large army and carried out an attack that was almost to death. ”
In fact, the mentality of the Huns at that time was not difficult to understand, they really couldn't do the Han family, and as time went on, the Han family would only get stronger and stronger, on the contrary, the Huns who lost a few excellent pastures would become weaker and weaker, but there was a 1 in 10,000 chance that Liu Che would launch a decapitation attack on the grassland.
There are also some arguments that in any era when two countries are at war, their own borders have fallen, and they know that the supreme leader of an enemy country has come to occupy the zone, unless the country has completely lost the will to resist, there will be some action anyway.
In the history of mankind, there is no need to talk about what is not famous, the most famous one is that Hitler went to Paris as a victor, and I don't know if the Gestapo is too powerful, or the French are too incompetent, anyway, all parties have not seen Hitler encounter any crisis in the historical records. The follow-up effect of Hitler's trip to Paris was that the vast majority of the French began to accept their fate, and they still had to wait for the United States to enter the war before they were encouraged, but what really began to resist on a large scale was to wait for the German army to fall into decline on the Eastern Front.
"Emperor Xiaowu of the Han Dynasty went to Hetao and his party, which is equivalent to crushing the last fight of the Huns." Liu Yan was looking into the distance, and the sky there looked gray: "After that time, the Han army entered the stage of chasing the Xiongnu in the real sense. ”
It's easy! The supreme ruler of the enemy country swaggered to the occupied area, no matter how resentful and resentful he was, but there was no way at all, what a spiritual blow it should be, and then he should have fallen into despair, which was equivalent to being completely disintegrated from the psychological defense line.
Therefore, some eloquent rulers, they know very well what kind of goal they have to inspect the world, just like the first emperor repeatedly went out on patrol, that is, swaggering, but no one can do anything about him, from helplessness to despair, and then they accept their fate, which means that the first emperor's tour is a project to disintegrate the psychological defense line of the remnants of the six countries. Wise as Zhang Liang knew very well the real intention of the first emperor's frequent patrols, and fought to make a Bolangsha attack, awakening the old nobles of the Six Kingdoms who would only hide in Tibet, and the evaluation given in the history books is the beginning of the re-rebellion of the Six Kingdoms against the rulers of the Qin Empire.
The Ding Lingren of Xigaoche were suffering a blow from the Han people, but if it is true that there is no such pain, then it can be guessed whose idea is that Ding Lingren came to attack this time...... Or the impact.
It must have been the Di people of the Fu clan who played an absolutely vital role, and they may have used the blackmail materials from the Han State to tempt the Xigao Cheding Zero people who were suffering from the locust plague once they threatened Liu Yan's safety.
"Maybe it's because Ding Lingren can't survive at all if he doesn't try?" Sang Yu knew that the southern and eastern parts of Xigaoche were severely infested by locusts: "Otherwise, it would be time for the Han to reassess the influence of the Di people on the Ding Ling people." ”
The patrol team is now in the northeast of Junji Mountain, and the northwest direction that Liu Yan looks at belongs to Rouran Mountain, where the reason why it is gray is the reason for the arson.
It will make half of the sky turn gray, you can imagine how big the fire is, how wide the area covers, it is the Han army who committed the arson, they want to burn a barrier to prevent the locusts from continuing to move south, but it seems to be a game?
"We underestimated the power of grassland arson...... Li Tan, as the host, was somewhat apprehensive: "It's okay in the south, even if there are ashes to ignite the fire, it will be extinguished immediately." The rest of the directions ......"
That's right, the fire must have spread, or it would have burned out of the barrier as planned, and it would have been burning for nearly three days.
"You're so mad, too!" Yu Jiulu Bati has entered a state of insanity since he knew that the Han people set fires, and he has repeatedly wanted to get angry and tried his best to endure it, and he was so stimulated by Li Tan's words that he really couldn't bear it: "Arson on the grassland will definitely anger the gods!" ”
What is the most stuff on the prairie? Of course, it's the most grass! Most of the terrain presents a flat topography, and once the fire burns on the grassland, unless a section of the isolation zone is cleared, or it does not encounter widespread heavy rain, it will spread again and again.
On the grassland, whether it is the nomadic people who originally inhabited here, or the farming people who are outsiders, no one dared to set fire to the grassland in any period before, not only did they not want to escape after arson, but the nomads did not know how to do it at all, and the farming people would force the nomads to go crazy and fight with themselves.
This time the Han people did it, although they had made a plan to prevent the spread, but they obviously got rid of it, and when the fire was extinguished depends entirely on when it rains, otherwise they will wait to see hundreds of thousands of miles of ashes.
"It's a bit too frustrating." Liu Yan lowered his voice and was talking to Sang Yu: "Then if you burn, it is estimated that you have completed the goal of stopping the locusts from moving south, and you may also burn many grassland people to death." In the spring of the following year, the grass of the grassland will definitely be more lush than usual. ”
Yu Jiu Lu Bati kept this god and that god over there, that is, no one of the Han people present showed due awe or ...... for the punishment of the gods. Fearful?
"You ...... You ......" Yu Jiulu Bati didn't dare to question Liu Yan, and roared at Yu Yi who was smiling and groaning: "Aren't you afraid of the punishment of the gods?!" ”
"It's not your grassland that's burning." Yu Yi didn't understand anything, could it be that he looked the best bully, and Yu Jiu Lu Bati didn't yell at anyone to yell at him. He restrained his smile and said, "Besides, the gods of the grassland can't control the Han people, and the Han people have the protection of the Son of Heaven!" ”
Yu Jiulu Bati couldn't refute it, the fire didn't spread to the south, but it really spread to the south, and the grassland that belonged to the Han Kingdom was burned first, and it had to wait for the Han Kingdom to be burned to the bare before it burned to the territory of Rouran. In addition, for the Rouran people who are very serious about superstition, Yu Jiulu Bati still knows a little bit about the situation on the Han side, believes in a lot of gods, and obeys the equivalent of the Son of Heaven who is equivalent to the gods of the world, to a certain extent, the Son of Heaven of the Han Kingdom really protects the Han people from the physical to the spiritual.
Facing Yu Yi, who made it clear that he didn't want to chat happily, Yu Jiu Lu Bati couldn't compete with his mouth in addition to rushing up to dry the fight. Yu Jiulu Bati knew that he couldn't rush up to fight, and found that no one of the Han people present took it seriously, and rushed out of the military tent very impolitely and regardless of the impact.
"He's not going to go back to China, is he?"
"Won't it?"
The Han people still underestimated the patience of the nomads for the arson grassland, and Yu Jiulu Bati only sent someone to inform him, without a formal farewell, and forgot the purpose of his coming, and really led the Rouran people to leave.
"Your Majesty." Li Tan had to say something: "Rouran people...... If you have an evil relationship with the Han because of this, the sin lies with the ministers. ”
Liu Yan knew the importance of the steppe to any nomadic people, but he underestimated the political wisdom of Yu Jiulu Bati as a khan. He didn't say anything in the face of Li Tan's plea, he waved his hand.
The fire should have been very large, and the area spreading was quite wide, but it indirectly affected the marching route and speed of the Ding Ling and Di people coalition forces that were moving south.
In this interracial coalition army that is heading south, of course, Ding Lingren is in charge, and Fu Jian is in the role of deputy. They found out that something was wrong from a long distance, and sent scouts to reconnoiter only to know that the fire was spreading in the grassland, but they didn't think about it in the direction of arson at the first time, after all, even if different formations of armies fought on the grassland before, no one was so mad as to set fire to the grassland, thinking that it was an accident caused by the fire.
Without the support of relevant knowledge, the coalition forces could not judge in which direction the fire would spread, and had to stop and wait and see, and in the process, it was indispensable to guess whether it would affect the team of the Han Emperor, and there was the most speculation that Liu Yan would lead the army to dodge.
After a delay, both sides recognized enough that the grassland fires showed no signs of extinguishing at all, but because of the change in the wind, they turned to the northeast.
"To the northeast is a pristine forest that has existed for thousands of years." Longdu is the commander of this coalition army, although he is the general of Xigaoche, he still has a deep understanding of some places: "That forest is the separation zone between us and another clan (Donggaoche) territory, and no one knows how big the coverage of the forest is, once the fire spreads, it will be an unimaginable disaster." ”
The so-called forest covering an unknown area is actually the area of Novosibirsk in the future, and in today's era, that area has not been developed at all, and the area covered is beyond imagination, and it is definitely the size of two Central Plains in terms of land area.
"Could this fire have been set by the Han Chinese?" Fu Jian will measure the Han people with the most malicious thoughts, that is, the hatred that should be fledgled everywhere from the excellent life to the status of the superior people: "The purpose is to prevent us from going south, but the Han people have expected the wrong change in the wind." ”
According to their ideas, the Son of Heaven in the Central Plains should live in a palatial palace, stay in the safest place and command his subordinates to fight and die, but he will not have the courage to go to the forefront of the war in person like the leader of the grassland.
Okay, Fu Jian still knows that Liu Yan is a son of heaven on horseback, but now it's different from the past, no matter how brave Liu Yan was before, he has been pampered for so many years, and it's normal for his courage to become smaller, right?
"But they didn't run." Longdu still doesn't believe that the Han people dare to set fire to the grassland, once it is really the Han people who did it, then the Han people are destined to become the public enemies of all the grassland people, even the Rouran people who are close to the Han people will choose to draw their swords and face each other: "Whether it is the Han people who set the fire or not, it will be of great benefit to us to say that they did it." ”
The Di people are not an authentic nomadic people, they are a branch of the Qiang people, and the Qiang people were semi-agricultural and semi-nomadic from the beginning. Fu Jian actually lived in the Central Plains since he was sensible, and he did not experience all kinds of survival difficulties of his ancestors, and his way of being educated was more inclined to the nobles of Zhuxia, and he did not know much about some things, including the attitude of the nomads towards the grassland arsonists.
"Our army will continue to move south, and at the same time send enough men to all the places where there are people to spread the word about the arson of the Han people in the steppe." Long Du seemed to have thought of something wonderful, grinned for a while, and said, "If the emperor of the Han people doesn't run faster, when the news spreads, he will be besieged by all the steppe people!" ”
