Liu Bao was very reluctant, at this moment, Liu Shi sent someone to send a letter, Zhao Yun opened it and saw that his face had not changed, and then called Fa Zheng, Yan Rou, and several people to discuss, and sent someone to Liu Bao's big tent again. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Liu Bao has been struggling in the big tent these days, is leaving! Or stay?

The leader of the main battle faction was killed by Zhao Yun, and he didn't dare to speak out at this time, so he had to stay or leave the two factions to argue with each other.

Those who advocate leaving: If they want to leave, Liu Shi can't stop them, but what about women, children, cattle and sheep?

Those who advocate staying behind believe that the ancestors have been nomadic for a long time, and the tribe is not only unable to grow, but also smaller and smaller, and the most important thing is that in the event of natural disasters, the rations have been drastically reduced, and the tribesmen have been trapped, poor and sick and have many deaths, unlike the Han people who can save food and survive the disaster year. Therefore, as long as Liu Shi speaks and counts, it is not bad to live in a fixed place, just like the Guduhou who stayed a few years ago, and now he is living well!

Fa Zheng personally sent Liu Shi's letter: first, to force Liu Bao to make a decision quickly, and the other is to inform Liu Bao that those tribes, whether nomadic or settled, are still under the control of Liu Bao, but Liu Bao must live in Chang'an, and can only send a few cronies to Xihe or Luoyang, Chang'an and other places to manage.

Moreover, Liu Shi also agreed to set aside a piece of land on the Bailu Plain near the left of Chang'an for him to graze.

He had heard about the prosperity of Chang'an, and it only took two or three years to turn an empty city into such a prosperous city, which also surprised him! Moreover, the earlier Guduhou was originally sick to death, but he was rescued by Liu Shi by a divine doctor, and now his health is much better, and it seems that he can't die for a while. This gave Liu Bao an extra layer of trust in Liu Shi.

Fa Zheng talked to Liu Bao about Liu Shi's proposal, and Liu Bao should reply after discussing it.

Zhao Yun conveyed Liu Bao's attitude to Liu Shi and waited for Liu Shi's news.

Liu Shi received the letter from Zhao Yun, smiled slightly, and saw Peng Tuo and Xun You looking over, so he handed the letter to Peng Tuo and the others, and said: "Liu Bao, the king of Zuoxian, has returned to my Yongzhou!" ”

Xun You said with a smile: "The lord is stationed here, could it be that the lord expected it?" ”

Liu Shi said with a smile: "Gongda is probably expected to have arrived!" ”

Xun You chuckled and said: "Although Liu Bao is the son-in-law of Xian Shan Yu, the Xiongnu have always respected the strong, and Hu Chuquan gave up the position of King Zuo Xian to Liu Bao after succeeding Shan Yu. Although the position of King Zuo Xian is the position of the prince, it is not absolute. If Hu Chuquan's son is older, I am afraid that the position of the prince will be Hu Chuquan's son, and at that time, this Liu Bao will not only not be able to inherit Shan Yu's position, but also his life will be in danger. Liu Bao must know this. That's why he stayed in the West River, instead of fleeing into the clouds like the right virtuous king. ”

Liu Shi nodded, looked at several of his subordinates around him, and said, "What the military advisor said is true, it is exactly so. Since the Southern Xiongnu organized the tribes to attack the north and settle down, and were defeated by us, this has greatly shaken the Xiongnu royal court, and the Xianbei are also eyeing it, often plundering their tribes. Liu Bao, the king of Zuoxian, directly supported his position of Shan Yu. The Xiongnu have no etiquette, killing their father and brother, and competing for the position of Shan Yu is the behavior of the strong, and it is not a crime. They only respect their mothers, fear the strong and the divine! ”

Xun You said with a smile: "Because of this, Hu Chuquan did not go south to help Liu Bao at this time, and Liu Bao did not dare to return to the royal court lightly. In the face of my Yongzhou strong army, there is only one way to surrender. ”

Wei Yan said: "Why don't we just go directly across the Great Wall and lower the springs of Huchu, wouldn't even Wuyuan, Yunzhong, and Shuofang also take back?" ”

Liu Shi was silent and looked at Xun You.

Xun You smiled and said, "Although our army has won victories in Beidi, Shangjun, and Xihe. But beyond the Great Wall, thousands of miles of grassland are not something that we can conquer with tens of thousands of troops now, especially since there is a powerful Xianbei watching on the sidelines, and if you don't do it, you will benefit Xianbei. Within the Great Wall, the place of maneuver is not big, and we can use stratagems and military formations to severely damage the Xiongnu and Xianbei, but it is different when we get to the prairie. Xiongnu, Xianbei's bow and arrow, can you Wen Chang be able to resist. Even if you can resist it, will your subordinates be able to resist it? ”

Wei Yan shook his head and said, "It's more difficult for the subordinates. ”

Xun You said: "In this way, even if it is as fierce as a tiger, can it withstand the bite of the wolves?" And these packs of wolves are still one blow away! ”

Wei Yan shook his head and said, "Can't!" ”

"In this way, the lord convinced Liu Bao, subdued a Xianbei within the Great Wall, and trained them to be used by me. At that time, it will be much more convenient to attack Xianbei and subdue the Xiongnu. This Xiongnu was already subdued by my Han Dynasty, but it was only because of the unappeasement of our Han Dynasty and the civil war among the princes that this Xiongnu was so rampant, wandering away from the Han Dynasty and plundering my Han people and property.

If our Han Dynasty is unified, the Xiongnu will inevitably be obedient again. However, this Xiongnu is indeed irritating, killing, looting, the means are extremely cruel, now subdue Liu Bao, when the time comes, Liu Bao to control the Xiongnu. Let them learn Han etiquette, read Han books, and change their Han names, and then the Xiongnu will no longer exist. Xun You said with burning eyes.

When Liu Shi heard this, his eyes flashed, and he said: "Passing on the letter to Zilong and filial piety, you can handle it according to the strategy of their letter, however, the brave young people in their clan must be selected to send the excellent ones to Chang'an to study and learn etiquette, and the excellent ones will be given names by the father, and the others will be given surnames according to the name of the tribe." Those with excellent learning will arrange official positions and be promoted to titles, and now the leaders in the Xihe King's account must all take a Han surname, and this requirement must be implemented! ”

Liu Shi looked at Yan Rou and said: "After this battle, Zihe led two thousand light cavalry and three thousand foot soldiers to garrison Shangjun Fushi to supervise and inspect the Great Wall passes in Xihe and Shangjun. If there is an invasion of Xianbei and Xiongnu, report it in time. Plundering by small bands of thieves must be severely punished. Of course, as a general who protects the Huns, you should also be impartial to the Huns, and must not oppress the Huns. After saying that, his eyes brushed the ground and shot over, like sharp thorns.

The arrangements were in place, Liu Shi led the army back to Chang'an, and Peng Tuo and Wei Yan returned to Gaoping and Fuping. Zilong and Fa Zheng still returned to Taiyuan. Liu Wei took Liu Bao and his party of more than 1,000 people, including a few hundred sturdy teenagers, who returned to Chang'an to meet Liu Shi.

Liu Shi is not stingy, Liu Bao is still his Zuoxian King, giving him nearly 1,000 acres of fertile land, allowing him to raise 100 Xiongnu slaves, and also assigning nearly 30% of the land in Bailu Plain to Liu Bao to herd horses. Others are also rewarded according to the rank of knight. They were very happy, but because of local problems, their rewards were very scattered.

Except for a small part of the Xiongnu who moved to the Weinan area to cultivate fields and plant fruits, the rest still lived a nomadic life, but the leaders of each tribe were moved to Chang'an, and each took a Chinese name according to his own tribe. The most fierce warrior of the tribe was accepted by the Yongzhou army as a subordinate and set up a Xiongnu battalion, but not all the Xiongnu in this battalion were also a small number of Han Chinese.

Just after these arrangements were made properly, I received a report from Liu Zheng that Zhang Baiqi, the remnant of the Yellow Turban, who lived at the junction of Hedong and Bingzhou, often led people down the mountain to loot recently, and many people complained, saying that the Huns could be subdued, but a Yellow Turban thief could not be subdued!

Liu Shi invited Xun You, Jia Xu, Liu Wei, Shi Jian and others to come to the meeting.

Liu Shi glanced at Shi Jian and Jia Xu, and said in a rather stern tone: "Cheng Wu, Wen He, I asked you to collect the news of this hundred horses two years ago, what is it now?" The people of Hedong have a lot of complaints, and if we don't deal with it, how will we face the elders of Hedong? ”

Shi Jian glanced at Liu Shi and knew that this incident made the hussar general more angry, so he pondered it and said: "A few years ago, we have sent someone to break into the interior of Zhang Baicai's interior by loosening the outside and tightening the inside. It's just that this hundred horsemen are very cunning, and they are all small pawns, and after they go back, they can't get useful good news.

Some time ago, my people found out that this Zhang Baiqi had a close relationship with Zhang Yan's people, so they started with Zhang Yan's people, and really got some useful news. Since Zhang Baiqi took advantage of the danger to build a fortress to defend himself, the general did not let us attack hard, saying that this yellow turban was also a group of suffering people, as long as he did not plunder and harass the people, he would ignore him for the time being, hoping to recruit them.

But Zhang Baiqi never agreed, and in the past two years, Zhang Baiqi has not gone down the mountain. Their cottage is divided into several layers, and they grow food in it for their own consumption, but I heard that there used to be more than 20,000 people, but now there are only nearly 10,000. Most of the old and infirm were laid down to live in the mountains. ”
