Chapter 33 White Arowana Suit, True and False Prime Minister!
The Xiongnu people are fierce, good at riding and shooting, they have always been the overlord of the grassland, repeatedly confronted the Han Dynasty, the two sides are constantly fighting, the corpse mountains and blood rivers, no one can help anyone, so they have to make a covenant: 'Within the Great Wall, the room of the crown belt, the emperor rules, outside the Great Wall, the people who lead the bow, only to govern it!'" ’
Twenty-four years of the Eastern Han Dynasty, there was a great drought and plague in the Mobei grassland, people and animals died of thirst, starvation, and countless deaths of disease, and the national strength of the Xiongnu took a sharp turn, and then split into two parts, the Northern Xiongnu were untamed, out of the Altai Mountains in the west, and swept across the European continent, and the Southern Xiongnu were vassals to the Han Dynasty, migrated to the vicinity of the Great Wall, and continued to live a nomadic life!
Eight years ago, taking advantage of the turmoil in the Han Dynasty, the Huns invaded and merged with the state, burned, killed and looted, and did all kinds of evil, as a result of the battle of Yanmen Pass, they suffered heavy losses, more than 20,000 soldiers were killed in the battle, and countless people were injured.
After the death of Yu Fuluo, the strength of the Xiongnu plummeted, lost their hegemony, and then under the leadership of Xindan Yu-Liu Bao, entrenched in the Hetao Plain area, never wanted to live, accumulated strength, and gradually recovered their strength, with 100,000 elite horsemen!
Karasuma people, Xianbei people are the Donghu tribe, also belong to the nomadic people, the first year of Gaozu of the Western Han Dynasty, the Xiongnu Dadan Yu-Maodun, sent troops to attack the Donghu royal court, plundered its grassland, subjects, livestock, part of the Donghu people are unwilling to perish, moved eastward to Karasuma Mountain, Xianbei Mountain, and later named after the mountain tribe, formed Karasuma, Xianbei two ethnic groups!
Karasuma people, Xianbei people have been subjugated to the Xiongnu, belong to the slave tribe, every year to pay tribute to cattle and sheep, horses, beauties, life is bitter, until the last ten years, the Huns sunset in the West Mountain, Karasuma, Xianbei two gradually rise, each has more than 100,000 people, skilled at riding and archery tens of thousands of people, often harassing the eastern border of the Han Dynasty, looting some craftsmen, grain, iron!
The leader of the Liaodong group - Gongsun Du, was originally a local official, taking advantage of the decline of the Han dynasty and the chaos of the Central Plains, he supported the army and became a prince, this person has a certain military talent, attacked Goguryeo to the east, bullied the 'three Hans' to the south, occupied thousands of miles of land, has 780,000 elite soldiers, and the strength cannot be underestimated!
Xiongnu, Karasuma, Xianbei, Liaodong four major groups, from west to east, in turn distributed in the periphery of the Great Wall, later the Central Plains chaos, the princes fought for hegemony, Yuan Shao was in the four states of Hebei, with hundreds of thousands of soldiers, they attached to the Yuan family, paid tribute to some cattle, sheep, horses, and exchanged silk and iron tools for the Han people!
In order to unify the Central Plains, Yuan Shao is also attracting the four major forces, and in the name of the general, he canonized the three leaders of the Xiongnu, Karasuma, and Xianbei as Shan Yu, and added Gongsun Du as the general of Liaodong Taishou and Wuwei, which can be regarded as cooperating with each other and using each other!
Nomads, advocating the law of beasts, have always only respected the strong, after the Guandu War, the Yuan family collapsed, Cao Ying rose rapidly, seeing this, they turned the rudder with the wind, sent people to Xuchang City, want to attach to Cao Ying, this is the past!
"The Huns, the Karasuma people, the Xianbei people, and the Liaodong-Gongsun clan, the wolf is ambitious, and he forgets his righteousness, and this time he came to Xuchang City, in addition to being called a minister, I am afraid there are other schemes, I have to be careful!"
Guo Jia's face was gloomy, thinking hard about countermeasures, for nomads, he didn't believe in a thousand, ten thousand, there were too many bloody lessons!
"The state of Han etiquette, but not afraid of war, friends come with good wine, jackals come with hunting knives, no matter who forces, whoever dares to stretch out their claws, I will pull out a knife and chop it!"
Xiao Yi's face was pale, and his words were faintly murderous, the original Crouching Tiger Pavilion and the old Taoist master were destroyed in the hands of the Huns, and the blood was deep, how could he not repay it?
"I'm afraid that the Quartet forces will not succeed, but instead contact Yuan Shao, once the two sides form an alliance, it will be very unfavorable to our Northern Expedition!"
"Although Yuan Shao is a bit of a bastard, he is a famous family and has an alliance with the barbarian tribe, he can't afford to lose that person, otherwise, everyone in the world will be punished!"

"This red robe is not good, it is too elegant, it has no kingly spirit, and it can't deter the barbarians from all directions!"
"Fetch the old man's armor, and the sword, the dagger, and the boots...... Why is it almost majestic? ”
………………………
In the back hall of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Cao Cao stood in front of a bronze mirror, and with the help of seven or eight attendants, he was constantly changing his clothes, preparing to meet the four envoys!
The prestige of Han officials is known to the whole world, if you want to convince the barbarian envoys and grasp the diplomatic initiative, you must dress up mighty and majestic, so that they can see the demeanor of the prime minister of the Han Dynasty...... I've tried them all, but I can't find a little feeling, so I kicked the bronze mirror angrily!
After working for a long time, Cao Cao finally gave up, not a problem of clothes, nor a problem of bronze mirrors, but his own problem, his appearance is too poor, his temperament is not good, how to dress up in vain, his parents are not strong, what can he do?
In all fairness, Cao Cao can govern the country, martial arts can be safe, and he is also quite accomplished in songs, far better than the princes of all walks of life, even compared to the Ming monarchs of the past dynasties, it is not much better, but when it comes to appearance, it is miserable......
He is short in stature, dark in complexion, with a large head, short eyebrows, thin eyes, a collapsed nose, a wide sea, and two rows of sesame teeth...... It is estimated that when he was born, he put the 'appearance' in his mother's womb, saying that he was a middle-aged person, it was all conscience, in a word: he is not like a human king!
In the concept of Chinese, a person sits and sits, stands in a standing posture, and his appearance and temperament are very important, especially as an emperor, he must walk with a tiger's step, be magnificent, and have a few unique birthmarks, or long arms, purple beards, and heavy pupils...... That's even better!
In the original history, Liu Bei and Sun Quan successively became emperors and became the supreme of the Ninth Five-Year Plan, but Cao Cao, who was the strongest, was still a king of Wei until his death.
"Son-in-law, see father-in-law, what are you doing...... Hey! ”
Xiao Yi and Guo Jia came to the back hall and saw Cao Cao changing clothes, they couldn't help but laugh dumbly, the dignified traitor in the troubled times also has a cute side, but it's a pity, the natural appearance is relatively poor, and it's useless to dress up!
Then again, my father-in-law is not good-looking, but the daughters he can give birth to are all like their mothers, like flowers and jade, and the city and the country, if they inherit their father, Xiao Yi and Guo Jia will want to cry without tears!
"The dignified prime minister, how can he not have prestige, he is really angry with the old man...... Come on, please don't drive here! ”
Cao Cao's chest was full of anger, he turned around seven or eight times in place, and suddenly came up with a prank, his appearance is not good, he can be confused, as long as he scares the barbarian envoy!
Just imagine, Cao Cao's appearance is not good, it is difficult to deter distant countries, if the barbarian envoy sees it, it is inevitable that he will have a contempt for it, and if he goes back to publicize it, it will be humiliating to the outside of the Great Wall!
On the contrary, if there was a prime minister with a dignified appearance and extraordinary grace, and when the barbarian envoy saw it, he immediately felt awe, and obediently called him a minister, how good would it be!
Appearance is not only the capital of love, but also a social weapon, if used well, it is better than thousands of troops!
"Don't do it-Cui Yan, meet the Prime Minister, send someone to summon the lower officials, I don't know what to order!"
Cui Yan, the word Ji Jue, a native of Dongwu City, Qinghe, is good at martial arts and has literary talents, through the 'recruitment order', he entered the prime minister's subordinate officials, and served as a separate driver, his ability is quite outstanding, and the most important thing is that this person has sparse eyebrows and dignified appearance, and he is a middle-aged handsome guy of the first class!
"Mr. Ji Jue came just in time, quickly changed into the prime minister's clothes, and met with the envoys of the Xiongnu, Karasuma, Xianbei, and Liaodong for the old man, and let the barbarians see the demeanor of the prime minister of the Han Dynasty...... Ha ha! ”
Cao Cao stepped forward, circled around Cui Yan a few times, put a prime minister's costume on him, and commanded the attendants, dressed up well!
"This ...... Xiaguan, Xiaguan doesn't dare! ”
People rely on clothes and horses to rely on saddles, Cui Yan is already sparse, and has a pair of four-foot long hair, at this time, wearing the prime minister's clothes, it looks even more powerful, but this 'pseudo-prime minister' is still at a loss, and he trembles with fear!
Receiving the envoys of the four ministries, it is related to military affairs, Cao Cao must come forward, the problem is, there is a prime minister, can't there be a second one, right?
After thinking about it for a while, Cao Cao changed into a set of guard clothes, and carried a ring-headed knife, standing on Cui Yan's right side, acting as a personal guard, so that he could not show his stuffing, and he could see the four envoys, which was the best of both worlds!
The father-in-law was interested and wanted to play a prank, and the sons-in-law naturally cheered, Xiao Yi was wearing armor and holding a sword, standing on the left side of the 'pseudo-prime minister', also acting as a guard, Guo Jia held pen and ink and books, and followed behind as the chief bookkeeper!
In this way, the three of Weng and his son-in-law disguised themselves and surrounded the extraordinary pseudo-prime minister, and went to meet the envoys...... Hehe, you can't scare them to death!
