With a violent wheez, a sturdy figure hurried forward, and he made his way through a dense forest, skirting the haunts of the beasts, and finally came to an open place, where torches flickered ahead. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

In the next breath, there was a loud shout-

"What man!?"

Then, several torches quickly approached, accompanied by the sound of horses' hooves.

The firelight gathered and shone on the comers, but it was a few riders in light armor holding torches, and the appearance of several people was similar to that of the Central Plains, but the hairstyle was slightly strange, and many of them distributed shawls.

When these men came, they surrounded the figure in the middle, and one of them drew his sword out of its sheath, pointed at the man, and asked, "Who are you and why are you here?" ”

The person being pointed at was ragged, his face was illuminated by the firelight, he looked haggard, and his exposed skin had a lot of scars, but in the face of the question, he still straightened up, like a knife and axe carved on his face, with sharp edges and corners, a pair of eyes staring at a few people, without fear, the whole person was like a sharp blade that had been tempered thousands of times, exuding a palpitating taste.

He said lightly: "I am the general Liu Yao, who is stationed here, let him come to see me!" ”

His voice was a little hoarse, as if it was caused by sleeping in the open air, but he was full of energy, and the words he said were so loud that the riders who gathered were shocked for a moment.

But immediately, a rider who was obviously the leader shook his head and said, "You are a general?" Impossible, a few months ago, the general was killed by the man in the south, who are you, why do you want to pretend to be the general? Could it be Nan'er's fine work? With that, he took a few steps closer and waved the knife in his hand, as if he wanted to ask the truth.

"Say I was killed?" The trapped person didn't see the slightest fear, and the firelight was reflected in his pupils, exuding a faint essence, "Why should I, Liu Yao, pretend to be someone else?" I've survived all my life, and I'm afraid of your little trick? Quickly report and let the garrison generals come to identify it, save nonsense! Just go! ”

There are few people who have never been besieged by others, let alone like the person in front of them, who not only is not afraid, but reprimands the besiegers, and is even more arrogant, acting like a superior person, as if the situation of the two sides is reversed.

But this posture of his made several riders hesitate, but they were shocked, and the leader hesitated for a moment, and for the sake of prudence, he said: "Left and right, keep this person with me, and I will inform the general, so that I can identify it." Invisibly, his tone was a lot more polite.

The besieged person did not urge, and when the man left, he asked a few people around him: "I have been away for many days, and I only occasionally heard the news that the king of our clan has died, I don't know if it is true or not?" ”

The tone of the people around them was much more respectful, and they nodded yes.

The man couldn't help sighing: "In this way, our clan will fall into difficulties again, it is really fateful, could it be that the scene of the division of Wei Wu Nace and Chen Hou will be repeated?" ”

It turned out that these riders were the Huns, and the place where they were located was the northern frontier.

The Xiongnu were divided into two parts of the north and south since Guangwu, the north stayed in Mobei, and then most of them moved westward, and the remaining more than 100,000 were gradually annexed by the Xianbei tribes, and a small part has always remained in the northwest of the desert, in the original history, this small part will be annexed in the fifth century, for the soft annexation, withdraw from the historical stage.

In contrast, the situation of the Xiongnu in the south was much better, and after the split, the southern part attached the Han Dynasty and moved to Senei, scattered in the counties of Beidi, Wuyuan, Yunzhong, Shuofang, Dingxiang, Yanmen, Dai and Shanggu.

In the second century, the southern Shan Yuting migrated south to the city of Zuoguo, and the Xiongnu tribes went southward and penetrated into the counties of Bingzhou, mainly distributed in the Fenshui Valley, due to the changes in the living environment, gradually transitioned from nomadic herding to agricultural economy.

In its heyday, there were more than 30,000 Xiongnu in the territory of Bingzhou.

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the war was endless, and the imperial court lost control of the Southern Xiongnu, and then the warlords were divided, and the Southern Xiongnu tribes, as an armed force, sometimes participated in the warlord wars, and gradually mastered the combat methods of the Central Plains, while continuing to move inward, but soon encountered obstacles -

Cao Cao, the hero, was afraid that the Huns' hukou would spread, and it was difficult to ban it, and he wanted to take the opportunity to expand the number of soldiers and cut off the connection between Yuan Shao and the Xiongnu, so he took a series of measures to control the Xiongnu by merging the history of the state assassination, dividing and conquering, so that Shan Yu was obedient, the famous king Ji Feng (sǎng), and the subordinates served and served, and the same as the household, and the border was cleared.

In another few years, Cao Cao got Chen Hou's legacy to view it, chose one or two of them, divided the Xiongnu into left, right, south, north, and middle five parts, and separated the southern Xiongnu Hao right from the people under his control, from direct rule to indirect rule.

Subsequently, Cao Wei referred to Chen Houce, set up another name, set up a Xiongnu general, strengthened the control of the Xiongnu soldiers and horses, and often led the Xiongnu soldiers to attack.

When the Northern Expedition of the New Han Dynasty and the destruction of Cao Wei and Yuan Zhao successively, the Southern Xiongnu had been freed from control, so they moved further southward, and when the New Han Dynasty pacified the northern land, the Xiongnu had already spread all over the state and were called Bingzhou Hu.

The court of the New Han Dynasty, according to the will of Emperor Liu Bei of Zhaolie, ruled Hu with Chen Hou Ce, but decades have passed since the time when Chen Hou made a decision, the court has changed, the family has changed, and for the benefit of his own family, Chen Hou Ce has long been unrecognizable, leaving only the appearance.

Among them, the representative is the Siyi Academy, which was originally intended to promote the literature of China, has become a proton policy, and the princes of the Xiongnu dynasties are going to come to Luoyang, called to study, but they are actually hostages, and there are many humiliating things and accumulating resentment.

In addition, several great families and nobles in the court, under the banner of Chen Houce, practiced their own laws, not only discriminated against the Huns, but also oppressed and exploited.

In addition to being conscripted as soldiers, there were many Xiongnu tribes who moved inward, and many of them were reduced to slaves and maids because of population trade, and at the same time they also had to pay taxes to the court of the New Han Dynasty.

Finally, ten years ago, the court coup d'état, many members of the royal family were relegated to Kim Yong City, there were wars on all sides, Shu gave birth to sword soldiers, Jiangnan was not appeased, Liu Yuan, the king of the Huns, took the opportunity to sneak back to the north, expelled the new Han officials, annexed the ministries, and then pulled the banner, also called the descendants of the Yan Han Dynasty, called himself the king of the Han in the north, and openly rebelled.

Today, it seems to be rising, so the officers and soldiers in the northern Xinjiang are broken, but the king of the Huns died suddenly, which makes the Huns have a heart of chaos.

Recalling all kinds of past lives and investigating the history of the past, Liu Yao couldn't help sighing, with sorrow in his heart.

Thanks to the policy of sinicization, today's Southern Huns, not only diet, life and dress are almost no different from the Han people, even the knowledge of the subset of the history has also been learned, and the past history is more important, Liu Yao as a Xiongnu nobleman, born proud, since childhood to study the history of the scriptures, a lot of thinking, knowing that the Xiongnu are facing danger.

"My Huns, after Wei Wu is a mess of scattered sand, only the nobles still have clan thoughts, if it were not for the oppression of the Han Dynasty, the people are afraid that they have long not remembered their origins, fortunately the king recovered, remembered the ancestors, and then built a khanate, but there are still a few tribal disputes inside, and there are five tribes estranged, in the past were suppressed by the king with prestige, and now the king is gone, I am afraid that there will be chaos, and I don't know if I can get through."

The more he thought about it, the more worried he became.

But his thoughts were soon interrupted by an exclamation, and he saw a big man in armor walking over, and as he walked, he exclaimed: "It's really a general, it's really a general!" ”

Liu Yao looked for the sound and recognized the person, it was Zhonglang General Qi Zhengju.

Today's Huns, mostly use Han surnames, and the appearance and title are the same as those of the Han people, and the etiquette of meeting is the same.

"The Great General Jiren has his own natural appearance!"

waited for Liu Yao to help him up, and the two sat down in the main and secondary seats, but Liu Yao was sitting in the seat of the main general, while Qi Zhengju, the coach, was sitting in the guest seat.

The two exchanged simple greetings, and Qi Zhengju couldn't help but say: "Just now, the marching Sima went to identify and came back to report, and the last general still had doubts, but now he is finally relieved, but I don't know why the general didn't show the token?" ”

This question aroused Liu Yao's thoughts, and he felt a faint pain in his heart, but on the surface, he said as if nothing had happened: "I fled all the way, went through the Han land and the Xianbei tribe, and was often investigated, there were many dress-ups, and there were bandits along the road, and the tokens had long been lost." ”

"The general has suffered, suffered!" Qi Zhengju is also the one who leads the troops, where can he not hear the danger inside, and he can't stop comforting.

But Liu Yaohun didn't care, waved his hand, and changed his words: "I know the situation in the country, but what is the situation now, you are stationed here, but there is still a war?" ”

Qi Zhengju restrained his thoughts and replied: "After ascending the throne today, he said that he wanted to recuperate, but the Han Er was cunning, and he had to guard against it, because there were many defenses in the south, and now the entire annexed state, most of them are my Xiongnu territory, and there are also stubborn resistances in Jinyang and other places, and there is a large army to go to the conquest, and it will not be peaceful in a few days." ”

Liu Yao nodded, the newly enthroned was his nominal brother Liu Cong, he was inconvenient to comment, so he said: "Jinyang garrison is that Liu Kun, this person is talented, if he can surrender and use it for me, it is the best." ”

Qi Zhengju shook his head and said: "Those men also have hard bones, and they would rather die than surrender, so Liu Kun is probably also such a person." ”

Liu Yao pondered for a moment and asked, "How did Han Ting react to such an attack?" Will there be another fight? ”

Qi Zhengju shook his head and said: "Han'er was defeated, he was already frightened, he didn't recur the army, I heard that he would also canonize the king, and the country decided to send an envoy a month ago to negotiate with the Han court, and he should have arrived in Luoyang at this time." ”

Liu Yao asked again: "The country can still be peaceful, when can the big funeral happen?" ”

"The country is peaceful, the kings are harmonious, but the great mourning can only wait for the messenger to come back, because of the death of the first king, it is inseparable from the Han Er Chen Zhi, so I have to let the Han court give an explanation."

Hearing Chen Zhi's name, a cold glint flashed in Liu Yao's eyes, and the killing intent surging in his heart, but he pressed it down, and sighed: "It's my fault, I didn't protect my younger brother, and the king's heart was bruised, so that the middle way collapsed." ”

Qi Zhengju hurriedly said: "How can you blame the general, this matter is all Han'er's technique, and when the envoy asks him in the court, he will definitely make that Chen Zhi pay the price!"
