0660: Alliance

Since the death of Tanshi Huai, because there are more and more people who are dissatisfied with Helian, Helian has to move the royal court north to better lead the many tribes of Xianbei. After Helian was beheaded by Li Yi, Putou, who ruled Xianbei on behalf of Dan, did not move south to rebound Han Mountain.

When Qianman, the son of Helian, grew up, in order to compete for power with Putou, the whole Xianbei became a mess, not to mention the move south. And now a few years have passed, although Putou won Qianman, but Xianbei was also greatly damaged because of this, and continued to retreat to the north, until he came to the foot of Wolf Juxu Mountain, and only then established the royal court here.

And the person who can ally with Kebi this time is not Putou. Because just a few years ago, Putou died of a recurrence of an old injury, and his younger brother Budugen succeeded Shan Yu.

On the grassland, the atmosphere between the two armies was very tense, and it seems that it is not an exaggeration to describe it as sabre-rattling.

And just between the two armies, Kebineng and Budugen looked at each other, for Kebineng, a rising star, it is naturally impossible for Budugen, who has the heart to dominate the grassland, not to have heard of it. And Kebi can be more familiar with Budugen, after all, Budugen is the nominal lord of the grassland.

Just looked at each other with a snap of their fingers, and Kebi was the first to break the silence, "The matter of the alliance, I don't know if Shan Yu is willing to agree?" ”

"Hehe, it sounds interesting, but with just the work of the mouth, I'm afraid it's hard to believe, right?" Budugen chuckled when he heard this.

Hearing this, Ke Bi Neng took out two things directly from his arms, "Shan Yu, this is the holy decree of the emperor of the Han family, as well as the handwritten letter of the prime minister of the dynasty, you can take a look." After returning to the northwest of Bingzhou with Azir, Kebineng rushed directly to this side, so he really didn't know anything about the major events that happened in the Han Dynasty.

As he spoke, he handed the thing to the man beside him, and the man rode out, and under the vigilance of the soldiers beside Budugen, he came to a place about fifty paces away from Budugen and stopped. Then he turned over and dismounted, put his things on the ground, and then got back on his horse.

Seeing this, Budugen waved his hand, and suddenly a soldier rode out, picked up the thing, checked it first, and confirmed that there was nothing suspicious, and then returned to present it to Budugen.

For Chinese, Budugen naturally will not be ignorant, because Xianbei people do not have words. Although the sandalwood locust who used to dominate the grassland wanted to make words, it was clear that this kind of thing was not so easy to do. In fact, many of the countries surrounding the Han Dynasty were also mostly like this, although they had their own languages, but their writing was basically Chinese. Slightly better, it is to use Chinese to transform it and form its own unique script.

After watching it back and forth several times, Budugen's expression changed from disapproving at the beginning to extremely dignified. After a long while, he whispered to a soldier beside him, and then saw the soldier quickly retreat to the rear.

"I'm really sorry, Leader Kebineng, this matter is very important, so I'm going to ask the great shaman to come and check it......" Budugen looked at Kebineng and said in a deep voice, with a hint of apology in his tone, because he also knew that what he did just now was really easy to cause some misunderstandings.

"I understand, but I hope you can understand my difficulties." Kebi replied with a calm expression.

Seeing this, Kebineng immediately sent more than a dozen scouts to drive around, obviously as a warning. Of course, Budugen also sent a large number of scouts when he came.

This is today's prairie, and there is rarely real trust between the two forces. It's like what Kebineng said just now, if he doesn't bring the troops, where would he dare to meet with Budugen?

In less than half an hour, two cavalrymen appeared in the distance, one of whom was the great shaman who had been invited by the official Budugen. Immediately after making the salute to the Great Shaman, Bdugen told him what had happened, and at the same time gave him the decree and the letter written by Maten.

After carefully examining the half-sound, the great shaman said in a deep voice, "Hmm...... Looking at the seal is indeed the holy decree of the emperor of the Han family. As for this prime minister's seal, although I have never heard of the position of prime minister in the Han court, the Han people always like to make these false names, but there is nothing suspicious. ”

"What does the great shaman think is the truth that Kobi can say?" Budugen asked in a deep voice when he heard this.

"It should be eight or nine without leaving ten, although our department no longer asks about the Han family, but the name of Li Wushuang is also famous even now. However, judging from the content of the letter, Prime Minister Nama did not let this Kebi find other reinforcements, and I think it should be his own intention to come to our alliance this time. The Great Shaman muttered.

"What does the Great Shaman mean is that Kobineng wants to take this opportunity to raise his reputation in the grasslands?" When Bu Dugen heard this, a trace of killing intent suddenly appeared in his eyes. He is twenty-seven years old this year, and it can be said that since he was a child, he has watched Xianbei go from its heyday to its current disintegration, and has witnessed all kinds of dramas fighting for power and profit.

"There is a possibility, but it may also be because Kebi can feel that his own 50,000 horses are not enough to attack the state, after all, Shan Yu should also know that in the past, he was ...... with Lian Shan Yu," Da Sa said with satisfaction.

Bu Dugen groaned when he heard this, and only after a long time did he look at Kebineng and said loudly, "Leader Kebineng, since it is an alliance, then it is better to talk about your conditions." ”

"I don't have any conditions, but the emperor and prime minister of the Han family have promised me that if I capture the annexed state, it will be my territory." Kebineng replied in a deep voice, and then without waiting for Bu Dugen's face to change, he said again, "However, I am naturally not an unknown person, I only need to merge half of the territory of the state!" At the same time, I don't want Li Yi's head! ”

In the first half of the sentence, Budugen didn't react at all, but after hearing the second half of Kebineng's sentence, he was a little moved. His current position of Shan Yu is actually not too stable, because his father Putou can sit in the position of Shan Yu, and it is also through the struggle for power. And most importantly, although Putou gave him the position of Shan Yu, he also gave the western grasslands to his other son, Fu Luohan, that is, Budugen's brother.

And if you can get Li Yi's head, it will be very helpful for Budugen's prestige on the grassland. Just like Kebineng said just now, Li Yi relied on his achievements in the early years, even after many years, he is still famous in the grassland. Even today, no Xianbei tribe dares to live there in the border north of Bingzhou.

Although Kebi could not see Budugen's expression clearly, but when he saw that he didn't answer immediately, he knew that Budugen might be tempted. So he hurriedly said, "In addition, if we really capture and destroy Li Yi, I will definitely follow Shan Yu ...... to the death."

Hearing this, Bu Dugen was moved again, there is no way, Kebi can ride a full of 50,000 horses, even on the prairie, it is a powerful force that is enough to change the situation. If you can have his support, the step is undoubtedly more stable in the position of Shan Yu.

Jizhou.

In Nanpi City, Yuan Shao looked at Jian Ce in his hand with a gloomy face, and said coldly after a long while, "Then what does Liu Xuande want to do?!" Go to war with me?! ”

"The lord also asked to calm his anger, and his subordinates thought that the reason why Liu Bei was like this was nothing more than to show his attitude." Xu Yu said respectfully.

"Is the attitude just about constantly moving troops?" Yuan Shao's tone was full of anger, and in his opinion, this was a complete provocation.

"It should be that I don't want to recognize the new emperor, but I want to crusade against the puppet emperor Yuan Shu......" Xu You muttered.

"Hehe, are you worried that I will take the opportunity to attack Qingzhou?" Hearing this, Yuan Shao's face looked a little better, obviously this explanation was still a little acceptable to him.

"Lord, my subordinates think that our army only needs to be prepared, let Liu Xuande and Yuan Highway fight each other, and when they are both defeated, the lord can sit and reap the benefits of the fisherman." Feng Ji said respectfully.

"Hmm...... Then let Zhong Jian be responsible for guarding the Qinghe Kingdom, this time, you must not think about it like a few years ago! Yuan Shao said with a gloomy expression. In the past, Liu Bei took advantage of Yuan Shao's war with Gongsun Zhan and Li Yi at the same time to take the eastern part of Qinghe Kingdom. Although Yuan Shao still took this piece of land back in the end, it was really not easy.

"Please rest assured! The last general will definitely not let him step half a step across the border of Qinghe Country! Chun Yuqiong said loudly.

At the same time, Jingzhou Xiangyang.

"The meaning of King Qi is already clear to this king, but the pseudo-emperor Yuan Shushu has many generals, and he wants to eliminate it in one go, but it is not too easy. Moreover, now that Zhao Zhengcheng personally led a large army to attack Chang'an, and Yuan Shao, the Duke of Yan, supported the new emperor to ascend the throne without authorization......" Liu Biao shook his head and sighed as he spoke, as if he felt extremely helpless and sad that the world of the Han Dynasty would become the situation it is today.

"Because of this, you need to work together to support the Han family!" Chen Deng said loudly when he heard this, "For example, today, His Royal Highness the King of Qi dominates the two states of Qingxu and Xu, and His Royal Highness the King of Chu occupies Jingzhou, plus the King of Shu in Yizhou and the King of Wu in Yangzhou, there are already two in the world. If Your Highnesses can unite, how can people like Yuan Shao dare to have different intentions? ”

"And if the King of Chu can unite with my lord, plus His Royal Highness the King of Wu, the three kings work together, how can the pseudo-emperor Yuan Shu resist?! And as long as Yuan Shu is destroyed, the people of the world will naturally understand that my Han family has not perished! When the time comes, all you need to jointly nominate a new emperor will be needed, and the revival of the Han family is just around the corner! Chen Deng looked at Liu Biao with blazing eyes, and his tone was even a little aggressive in the end.

It's just that Liu Biao has no way to object to this, although he feels that many of Chen Deng's words are just idiots, and it is not so easy to do. But...... He is the king of Chu! The big Han surnamed Liu is Wang! There are some things that others can say, but he must not say them!

In desperation, he could only turn his head to look at Kuai Liang and the others. Seeing Liu Biao's gaze, Kuai Liang on the side cleared his throat and said, "Since His Royal Highness the King of Qi wants to unite my lord and King Wu to fight against Yuan Shu, then I don't know how to crusade?" Who should you listen to when you fight? Although it is a three-way attack at the same time, the coalition will inevitably cause trouble if it has no owner, and the former Dong Alliance failed because someone disobeyed Yan Gong? In addition, if Yuan is eliminated, I don't know who the captured territory should belong to? ”

"I think this is the famous Jingzhou celebrity Kuaizi Rou Kuaizhizhong, right? Deng Jiuwen Kuaizhi is a rare talent, but he is not inferior to Xun Wenruo and Guo Fengxiao under the command of Zhao Gong. In the past, the king of Chu rode into Jingzhou alone, and he had no last resort to help the king of Chu take Jingzhou without much effort......" Chen Deng looked at the person, and then suddenly laughed.

Kuai Liangzhi's words did not make Kuai Liangzhi complacent, on the contrary, his expression became very cautious, because from Chen Deng's words, he knew that the other party was a famous person.

"The Qi envoy has a good reputation, Your Excellency is political, benevolent, righteous and loves the people, erudite and talented, and now he has won the trust of the King of Qi, and Liang has been fascinated for ......a long time," Kuai Liang arched his hand back, but unfortunately because Chen Deng acted too low-key, except for some things in the early years, other Kuai Liang really didn't know.

The two flatter each other, but in reality they are just snatching the initiative of discourse in this way. In the end, it was the young Chen Deng who had the upper hand slightly. But despite this, Chen Deng still replied very respectfully, "Returning to the words of Kuaizhi, what my lord means is to hope that the king of Chu will send troops to Runan, my lord will send troops to Peiguo, and the king of Wu will lead Yuzhang's troops to conquer Yangzhou. If the three sides attack at the same time, Yuan Shu's forces will definitely be stretched and difficult to deal with. ”

"And the position of the leader of the alliance, my lord thinks that the king of Chu has been the pastor of Jingzhou since the time of Emperor Xiaoling, whether it is qualifications or merits, he should be the leader of the alliance!" Chen Deng chuckled and said, "As for the territory captured, according to my lord's will, the whole world is not the king's land, and the territory is naturally owned by the imperial court. When your Highnesses and my lord jointly present a new emperor, they will share the credit. ”

Hearing this, Kuai Liang didn't say much, because he didn't know how to say it. After all, Liu Bei gave up the position of alliance leader so simply, but Liu Biao and even Kuai Liang and others did not expect it at all. Because of this, they have no idea how to refuse.

No soldiers, no food? Obviously, it is impossible, not to mention that Liu Biao has been running Jingzhou for many years, just retaking Nanyang from Yuan Shu has allowed Liu Biao to get a lot of money, grain and population. Moreover, it is located in Jingzhou, with Liu Zhang, the king of Shu, on the left, Yuan Shu and Liu Xuan, the king of Wu, on the east, and Li Yi, who is attacking Chang'an, in the north.

"Since this is the case, then please ask the envoy of Qi to reply to the king of Qi, and say that the king agrees. After the spring ploughing is over, he will send troops to recruit the puppet emperor Yuan Shu! Liu Biao said in the end, and his tone became firm.

Although he has been recuperating all these years, his ambitions in the early years have also decreased a lot after the recapture of Nanyang. But now that he was so provoked by Liu Bei, he remembered the ambitions of his youth.
