Kirby could see Tuoba Yu reminding himself to guard against Yuan Xi, and he also nodded and said: "I Xianbei is a nation living on horseback, and only a fool like Su Li would build a castle and trap himself to death." The grassland is vast, if we are defeated, we can return to Mobei, waiting for the opportunity to make a comeback, I don't believe that Yuan Xi can still crusade against my Xianbei Mobei Territory. ”
Tuoba Yu guessed from Kirbineng's words that he would fight with Yuan Xi, and he was secretly happy in his heart, and he didn't have to worry that Kirby Neng would sacrifice himself to ask Yuan Xi for perfection, so he proposed: "Lord Shan Yu is worthy of being the eagle of the desert, far-sighted, able to bend and stretch, I think that if you can unite Budu Gen Shan Yu, with the strength of the central and western Xianbei, it is enough to confront Yuan Xi." ”
Kirby Neng also thought of this idea, but he and Budugen have always been at odds, and sighed: "I don't know, it's just that Budugen is jealous that there are many people in the Xianbei tribe in my central part, and he occupies the most advantageous position in the grassland, and he always wants to weaken my strength, this time Yuan Xi crusaded against me, and he was the happiest." ”
Tuoba Yu said awe-inspiringly: "Please also ask Kirby to be able to rest assured, you and Budu Genshan have a personal grudge, I believe that he can focus on the overall situation, once the central Xianbei is expelled from Monan, the next one is him, he must know the truth of the cold lips and teeth, the villain is willing to go for Shan Yu, and persuade him to help." ”
Kirby could think about it, and thought that in the spring of the next year, when the climate was warm, Yuan Xi would send troops, so he agreed to Tuoba Yu's suggestion and asked him to bring some gifts to contact Bu Dugen, and Tuoba Yu happily accepted the order.
After Tuoba Yu left, Kirby Neng's subordinate Utuqi admonished: "Lord Shan Yu, I don't think this Tuoba Yu's words can be trusted, the reason why Yuan Xi wants to conquer Su Li is because Tuoba Yu instigated Su Li to sneak attack Daijun and angered Yuan Xi. Our army has no grievances with Yuan Xi, as long as Tuoba Yu is handed over, and then bows down to the courtiers, they will be safe. ”
Utuqi is the first wise man under Kirbyneng, according to him, Yuan Xi will indeed not embarrass himself, but he betrayed himself so much Xianbei warriors, how to gain a foothold in the Xianbei grassland in the future, so he did not accept Utuqi's suggestion, but politely refused: "My Xianbei people naturally want to gallop on the grassland, if they bow down to Yuan Xi, like Karasuma Shan in Louban, shrink in Liucheng, and wait for Yuan Xi to send, it is really not what I want." ”
Utuqi knew that Kirby could have great ambitions and wanted the Xianbei people to stand tall on the steppe and become another hegemonic empire after the Xiongnu Empire. Therefore, Utuqi did not persuade Kirby to discuss and contribute to Yuan Xi, but reminded: "Lord Shan Yu, since Yuan Xi is very likely to send troops in the spring of next year, please prepare for battle, select strong Xianbei warriors, fight to the death with Yuan Xi, and move the old and weak women and children to the Mobei grassland first." If Yuan Xi can be defeated, he will have a rich land in Youzhou, and take it as his home, and in the union of Karasuma and Xiongnu, the hegemony of the north is not alone; If we are defeated, we can go far away to the north of the desert, in the development of the population, only a few years, our army can form a strong cavalry, when there are changes in the north, our army can make a comeback, herding horses in the south of the grassland, invade the Han frontier. ”
This time, Kirby Neng agreed with Utuqi's opinion, Kirby Neng is not a person who is full of arrogance, he will think about it, have a long-term vision, and start the great migration activities. On the second day, Kirby was able to gather the people on the grassland to issue a propaganda call: "Strong young people between the ages of 20 and 40 will stay in the Monan grassland to fight against the Han army and defend their homeland." The rest of the old and weak women and children moved to the Mobei grassland, and when our army succeeded, they would take everyone back to the Monan grassland. If we don't believe in defeat, you are the future of our Xianbei, and we must remember to avenge our Xianbei warriors! "Kirby can have a very good prestige in the hearts of the Xianbei people, his order is like a holy decree, it does not meet the requirements, and the people who want to migrate are also reluctant to say goodbye to Kirby, and wish Kirby can defeat Yuan Xi as soon as possible.
Tuoba Yu came to the territory of Xianbei in the east and was single in Budugen, Budugen is also the hero of the desert, known as a great ambition, his ambition is different from Kirby Neng, he wants to unify Xianbei, so Kirby can be called a thorn in his eye, a thorn in the flesh. After hearing that Tuoba Yu had offended Yuan Xi, he smiled proudly: "Can Kirby not claim to be the first eagle in the Xianbei Grassland, why is he afraid of Yuan Xi, a hunter?" ”
Tuoba Yu knew that Budugen and Kirby could have a grudge for a long time, and it was not so easy to persuade, so he had to follow Budugen's intentions and said with a smile: "Budugen is right, so I have to ask for adults, and I hope that adults can send troops to help!" ”
Bu Dugen directly refused: "It's impossible, I think it's for the sake of the Xianbei clan, if you don't take the opportunity to send troops to attack, you have already done your best." If the Tuoba patriarch can be a lobbyist for Kirby, he can leave. Tuoba Yu didn't expect Budugen's attitude to be so resolute, and there was no way to persuade Budugen for a while, so he pretended to say: "I naturally came here to admire Budugen Shan Yu, and I came here to defect." Passing by Kirby Neng's place before, he was warm to me, and worried that Yuan Xi would attack, I also wanted to sell my favor, so by the way, Yu Shan Yu knew about it. Alone in the adult can see that in the same clan does not care, Tuoba Yu for Kirby can be single than thank the adult. ”
Tuoba Yu has been with Budugen in these days, and gradually understands Budugen's ambitions, this person is thinking about being the king of Xianbei, and he is worried about how to deal with Kirby, how can he send troops to help? I was even more afraid in my heart, in case a step Dugen became the king of Xianbei with the support of the Han army, I am afraid that he will be the first chess piece he sacrificed. Now the only thing to rely on is Kirby Neng, Tuoba Yu made an excuse, left the root of Budu, returned to where Kirby can be, and shamefully expressed to Kirby Neng that he was ineffective and failed to persuade Budu Gen to send troops to help. Kirby Neng smiled heartily: "Patriarch Tuoba has worked hard, and you have not gained nothing on this trip, at least you have persuaded Budugen not to send troops to attack me, so that I will be attacked on both sides." ”
Yuan Xi returned with a full load, and the people of Youzhou greeted each other in the middle of the road, celebrating their triumphant return of Lord Shi, in their minds, Yuan Xi is the god of war of the Han Dynasty, the banner of Youzhou, as long as he is there, his homeland is safe. Yuan Xi also thanked the people for their trust, and said confidently: "Fellow villagers, rest assured, the foreign invasion has become a thing of the past, even if it is a vast Xianbei, I will drive them back to Mobei." I still say the same thing before the expedition, if I commit a crime in Youzhou, I will be punished even if I am far away! "Yuan Xi's prestige in Youzhou is getting higher and higher, and more and more people are willing to join the Youzhou Army and conquer Xianbei next year.
In response to this situation, Yuan Xi didn't know whether to be happy or worried, he was only in the land of six counties, and he really couldn't support an army of more than 100,000. After deliberation, Yuan Xi decided to expand the naval army and reserve army. The navy must be familiar with people who are familiar with water, and many people in the north are not good at water, so they have no choice but to be eliminated and can only join the reserve army. The so-called reserve army is the reserve army, which patrols the counties and counties of Youzhou in peacetime to help the township to open up the wasteland, and if the war is urgent, all the registered reserve army must be conscripted into the army to protect the family and defend the country. Although these people receive military salaries that are not as good as the regular army, their families encourage young adults to participate, if they can turn positive, so as to contribute to the assassin Shi, so the military strength of Youzhou has been unprecedentedly developed, the regular army has as many as 100,000, and there are 50,000 reserve troops, even if they go on an expedition to Xianbei, Youzhou also has people to defend.
After Yuan Xi rewarded the spoils to the soldiers, he also ordered Jia Xu to bring congratulatory gifts to Luoyang, report his achievements to Emperor Han Xian, and of course, bring the spoils to his old subordinates Sima Yi, Zhang Xiu, Guo Huai, Hao Zhao and others. Yuan Xi also ordered Xun Zhan to bring a congratulatory gift to Qingzhou Yuan Tan, although Yuan Tan is his competitor, but after all, he is his eldest brother, and he still has to give it in terms of etiquette, as for Yuan Shao, he is ready to go in person, one to show his filial piety, and the other to need his help.
