Chapter 48: Intrigues
Chapter 48 Intrigues
On the grassland, it is also the scorching heat and the scorching sun. At the foot of Danhan Mountain, there are countless tents more than in the past, and the 10 200,000 troops of Xianbei are gathered here, and the company camp is dozens of miles, which is magnificent.
The current Xianbei leader and Lian, every time he sees this situation, he can't help but sigh, even if his father, the great Tanshi Huai, is alive, I'm afraid he has never gathered so many people at one time, right? I can't help but feel proud when I think that I have done something that even my father has not done.
In the past few days, Helian has feasted every day, entertaining the patriarchs of various tribes, singing and dancing, drinking and delicacies, lingering among them, as if he had forgotten the major event of going south to attack Han. Budugen was young and vigorous, and several times he wanted to get up and question Helian, but was stopped by his brother Kuitou. The leader was afraid that if he stayed any longer, Budu would have to cause some trouble, so he retired to Helian in the name of being unable to drink.
Returning to his camp, Bu Dugen said hatefully: "Helian, a person with no virtue and no talent, how can he lead my Daxianbei million households, and my brother should replace him." ”
"Brother be cautious, be careful that the wall has ears!" The head looked around, fortunately his guards guarded the area around the camp, "Wouldn't it be better if he is immoral and incompetent, this time to the south, if there is any mistake, you and my brother will have a chance, we should be more careful than Helian, Kebineng that kid." His mind is better than that of you and my brother, and this man is our great enemy. Bu Dugen also felt the same way when he heard his brother talk about Kebineng.
And at this time, in the big tent of Helian, Kebi could look at the bloody dance, and he unconsciously reacted, but when he thought of the purpose of his coming, he pressed down. Seeing the head brother leaving, Kebineng, who was waiting on the side, hurriedly went up to Helian.
"Kobi can see the noble chieftain." Seeing that Helian didn't seem to hear it, the beautiful woman in his arms was tasting the wine sent to his mouth, forced the anger in his heart, and raised his voice again, "Kebi can see the noble big leader." ”
This time Helian finally heard it, wiped the grease on his hands on the maid beside him, got up and gave Kebineng a hug, "Dear Patriarch Kebineng, what is it that makes you so anxious to see me?" Is it that these dancers can't please you? No, just change a batch. Actually, he had heard it for the first time just now, just to let Kebi call himself the big boss one more time, so he pretended not to hear.
Kebi Neng was disgusted in his heart, but he wanted to squeeze out a smile on his face. "Big Boss, our Xianbei Ten Divisions are gathered here, people eat horses and feed every day, and the amount of food and forage consumed is huge, I don't know when the big boss plans to go south to attack Han? If it drags on for a few more days, it will be out of food. ”
"Oh? There is no food in the army? I originally thought that the tribes in the east and west would come from afar to rest for a few days, but it seems that they can't wait. Well, the order goes down and a meeting is held to discuss the dispatch of troops. ”
"No, I'll go and inform them." Kebi was ordered to go down and inform the tribal chiefs.
The patriarchs of the ten major tribes came to Helian's big tent together, and the banquet had been removed, and Helian was dressed in a full set of big boss costumes, sitting on a snow-white bearskin throne, with his tall and burly figure, he also had a bit of a leader's temperament.
He Lian accepted the greetings and respects of the patriarchs, waved his hand to let everyone sit down, looked around, and then said: "Patriarchs, this time I summoned everyone to come to the alliance, just to go south to attack Han. After the unification of my father, Da Xianbei has prospered, and has replaced the Huns and become the lord of this steppe. “
"The north resisted Ding Ling, retreated to the east, drove the Huns to the west, and established a great Xianbei that spanned more than 10,000 miles from east to west and 7,000 miles deep from north to south. We now have a population of several million, and hundreds of thousands of people who control the strings, although we dare not say that we occupy the whole world, but it is no problem to break the Great Wall, go to the Central Plains, a world of flowers, and grab some women to come back. ”
"The Eastern Han Dynasty is about to run out, the officials are corrupt, the emperor is incompetent, domestic rebellions and disasters are frequent, and the Southern Barbarians are now too busy to take care of themselves, and they have not marched into the grassland for decades, and they are no longer the strong men of Emperor Wu's time. In order to survive the winter, I proposed that all the Xianbei tribes go south together. Saying this, he paused and glanced at the several patriarchs of Xianbei in the east and west.
"I know that the disasters of the tribes in the east and west are not big, and they can barely support the past, but my Daxianbei tribes are one, and the war with the Han is a big matter, and one loss is the other's glory, and everyone should naturally contribute to the south attack on Han."
"What's more, the main force attacking the Han is our three major tribes, you just shout and cheer on the side, you can rest assured, after entering the Central Plains, the things of the Southern Barbarians are at your disposal, and I will not interfere or take a profit."
When the patriarchs below heard Helian say this, they talked about it. Kuitou and Kebi could have anticipated Kazuen's attitude and didn't care. The patriarchs of the other tribes were active, because Li Su had already taken Hu Dadang as an interpreter in private, and had met the patriarchs of the ten major tribes, and the gold and silver treasures were all sent over, and they were promised enough food for them to survive the winter.
If you don't die in battle, you can still get benefits, so why not do it? The patriarchs can ascend to the throne of the tribal leader, and naturally all of them are human spirits, and they have sworn that they will definitely do what they agreed. Now listening to Helian's agitation, he is full of illusions about attacking the Central Plains, and he has a wait-and-see attitude one by one.
He Lian was naturally very happy when he saw that everyone had no objections, and he thought that everyone was beginning to believe in him. He knew that when it came to the ability to fight, Kebi was far better than himself, so he asked a rare shameless question. "Patriarch Kebineng, where do you think my army should enter the Central Plains from?"
Kebi Neng had studied the matter of attacking the Han in the south, and he had already been confident, and when he heard Helian's question, he replied happily: "Big Chief, as far as I know, all the counties in the northern border of the Han Dynasty have built Great Walls to prevent the chiefs of the grasslands from driving straight in. There are only a few gaps in a few places, and the closest to us is the line from Liangcheng to Qiangyin. ”
"To the west here is the Yinshan Mountains and the Great Wall, and to the east is the Great Wall, which stretches all the way to Yuyang. Only the Liangcheng to Qiangyin in the middle is a low hilly area, and the Great Wall has not been built. Our army can enter from here, and then cross the Yellow River to the south and take the Central Plains directly, even if it is not impossible to capture Luoyang. And according to reliable information, the main force of the Han army is also gathering in Liangcheng. ”
"Oh? The main force of the Han army is also in Liangcheng? I don't know who the chief general of the Han army is? How many troops have been gathered to fight me? In order to show that he is also familiar with the military, the leader took the initiative to ask.
"Don't ask, the head of the Kuitou patriarch, I was about to say that the main commander of the Han army will be the new Duliao general Lu Bu, that is, the one who broke the Youxian King of the Northern Xiongnu before, shot the Youxian King, captured the clumsy Chi alive, and led more than a thousand horsemen to dare to go deep into the grassland for thousands of miles to burn Zhao Xincheng." Kobi can explain.
Hearing that the chief of the Han army is Lu Bu, everyone under the tent was in an uproar, and began to talk about it again, Lu Bu's name has now spread all over the grassland tribes, and because of his legendary achievements, he has been passed on by the grassland tribes to become a new generation of "flying generals", and his reputation surpasses that has been passed down for hundreds of years "Flying General" Li Guang, and the famous murderous reputation of killing adult men with high wheels at every turn makes all ethnic groups even more frightened.
