"General, you're awake, great!" As soon as Zhou Yi opened his eyes, he heard Zhang Xiaowu's surprised voice.

Through Xiao Wu's introduction, Zhou Yi knew that he had been in a coma for a day and a night, and when he first came back, he lost too much blood, and after the military doctor pulled out the arrow, he said that the rest could only rely on Zhou Yi himself. Fortunately, Zhou Yi's welfare physique is amazing, and he recovered after a day. In modern parlance, this is a medical miracle.

Ahead, the armies of both sides were still facing each other, but there was no large-scale fighting. After guarding Zhou Yi for a day, Lu Bu was summoned by the general Qiang Min.

"Brother Yi, the general has come to see you!" Zhou Yi was resting in the camp, and Xiao Wu ran in in a panic to say.

"General Zhou Yi, I heard that you woke up, and you just had time to come and see our big hero." General Zang Min, over fifty years old, does not look angry and arrogant, is a very temperamental old man, very Confucian style, and his speech is also like a spring breeze. Zang Min was followed by Lu Bu, who was squeezing his eyebrows at him.

"The last general panics ......" in front of the big boss, you must be humble.

After a conversation, I asked Zhou Yi about his injury. Zang Min also instructed Zhou Yi to go to the prison office to explain the situation after his injuries were healed. To put it bluntly, everything that should be understood is almost understood, the folds have been written, and Zhou Yi is going through the motions.

Before leaving, Zang Min patted Zhou Yi on the shoulder and said, "Young people have momentum, but there is still a long way to go, and we must not lose confidence in a setback." ”

"General, you woke up so soon, we have made a great contribution this time...... "Send Zang Min away, Lu Bu didn't leave.

"What, think I'm waking up too early?" Zhou Yi said with a calm face, whether this kid can speak.

"General, that's not what I meant." Now it's time for Lu Bu to cry and mourn.

It was late at night, ordering Lu Bu to return to his camp, and Zhou Yi had to think about what the general Qiang Min said when he took it away. Why do you say that I still have a long way to go, don't lose confidence, combined with the information that Zhou Yi obtained in the letters seized by the chest court. Zhou Yi felt that this battle could not be fought, and the Huns were willing to surrender.

The Eastern Han Dynasty's border strategy was not exactly the same as that of the Western Han Dynasty, and part of it was to use Hu Yuhu, that is, to recruit a small number of people to guard the frontier for the Han Dynasty. The Southern Xiongnu, who had rebelled before, was one of them. In the letter, there was a document that wanted to be re-recruited. It seems that the Han court had two attitudes towards the rebellion.

This time, the Huns suffered heavy losses, and if they continued to fight, the people's hearts were unstable, and they may not consider surrendering again.

If it is a peace talk, on the surface, Zhou Yi has made great achievements in this military operation. However, in order to appease the Huns, the imperial court may not give Zhou Yi too much reward, and it is very likely that it will be hidden. After all, Zhou Yi's massacre on the grassland was also disgusted by Confucianism. Originally, Confucianism was more benevolent and opposed to killing, especially against unarmed people.

Compared with the relative calm of the Shuofang front, the DPRK and China are choppy.

The surrender table of the Southern Xiongnu was sent on the second day after Zhou Yi fell into a coma. The Huns suffered heavy losses this time, the royal court was destroyed, and the right Xian king was killed in battle, and the army was unstable. Returning to the embrace of the Eastern Han Dynasty was the only choice for Shan Yu to maintain his status. However, it also demanded that the imperial court severely punish the executioner who broke the peace, that is, Zhou Yi.

The DPRK and China quarreled over this, some advocated severe punishment of Zhou Yi, some advocated continuing to exterminate the rebels, and some advocated giving Zhou Yi an official and a knighthood.

Emperor Liu Hong of the Han Dynasty was also a big deal about this.

The things in the court are beyond the reach of Zhou Yiwhip. But ten days later, the imperial court decreed:

agreed to the surrender of the Xiongnu again;

The Han army that exterminated the royal court was summoned back to Beijing to be reviewed by Emperor Ling and incorporated into the forbidden army.

Feng Lu Bu was appointed as the commander of Pingnu, and he was given a thousand catties to stay in Shuofang to deter the Huns.

Feng Zhouyi was the marquis of Guannei, giving 10,000 gold and 800 households.

……

The soldiers were unhappy for Zhou Yi, but Zhou Yi calmly accepted the holy decree, and the Han Dynasty had not yet degenerated to the point of embarrassment for the front-line soldiers. However, he only gave Zhou Yi a false position, not real power, and it can be regarded as taking care of the face of the Huns. Originally, the imperial court gave Zhou Yi the capture of the marquis, but it was changed to the marquis of Guannei. is also unwilling to stimulate the Huns, which can be regarded as indirectly protecting Zhou Yi.

In fact, according to the Qin and Han dynasties, the Marquis of Guannei ranked at the nineteenth level, second only to the liehous. Many awards are given to generals with major military merits, and there is no country. Such a reward is still within the scope of Zhou Yi's acceptance, no matter whether the actual official position is big or not, it is quite bluffing to say it anyway. At this time, the title was not like the random reward during the Three Kingdoms, and the gold content was still very high.

Military affairs have always been a continuation of politics, and when political goals are achieved, military missions are over.

The bureaucracy may not understand military affairs, but it must understand politics for generals. This is also the reason why Zhou Yi calmly accepted the will.

Zhou Yi knew that the Huns were only part of the reason, and another major reason was that the nobles in the court did not want Zhou Yi, who was born in a poor family, to take power. Without real power, Zhou Yi will not make achievements, and he will be mediocre in a few years. But Zhou Yi didn't care.

As for Lu Bu, no matter how high a reckless man's martial arts are, the family will not care, and guarding the border is the best glory.

Troubled times are coming, and after Zhou Yi was injured this time, he already had the idea of taking control of his own destiny. If you want to make a difference, you must first make a reputation. Next, I have to make good use of the quiet time in the next few years to make friends with the world's heroes. The name of Guan Neihou is also enough.

It's better to be famous sooner!

If we compare Dahan to a modern organization, then there must be four types of people in the organization:

Leader, Emperor Ling of Han. Supreme Leader.

Loyal members of the organization, low-level soldiers and eunuchs around the Spirit Emperor. People who believe in the imperial court, people who can fight bloody battles for the imperial court

Opportunists in the organization, bureaucrats of the big families. In the name of the imperial court, accumulate prestige and wealth for your family.

The enemies of the organization, the rebellious Southern Xiongnu and the degenerate nobles, colluding with foreign enemies, are the hidden crisis of the organization.

Zhou Yi changed from a loyal member of the Han Dynasty to an opportunist, but not to speculate on the present, but to speculate on the future and the future of the Han nation.

For the sake of Zhou Yi himself, and for the sake of this nation to suffer less, speculation is nothing.

Perhaps it would be more accurate to call it a borrowing.

Those who achieve great things must learn to take advantage of the situation, and Zhou Yi is now going to take advantage of the momentum of the Han court.

Cao Cao's coercion of the Son of Heaven to order the princes was to take advantage of the situation, and Liu Bei's name as the emperor's uncle was also to take advantage of the situation.

Standing on the tuyere, pigs can fly into the sky.

Zhou Yi now wants to accumulate his strength in this era and wait for the outlet.
