Duan Xianbei is a big family in itself.

When Wang Jun was in charge of Youzhou, he had the closest relationship with the Duan Division, and the two sides were almost integrated through intermarriage, harmony, and even close relations, and in Wang Jun's cavalry ranks, the Duan Division's men and horses always had a place.

But it was this kind of intimate contact that also made the Duan Department suffer the greatest turmoil and impact after Wang Jun's defeat, and he didn't dare to stay at all, and fled out as soon as possible, and because a large number of Duan troops and horses were in the old Youzhou army, they could not be collected back in time, so that after they fled to the northeast frontier, they failed to recover for several years.

Today's Duan Department has been divided into two, one part stayed in Youzhou, and after being repeatedly encircled and suppressed, it was finally collected by Duan Chang and integrated into the Qipin Xianbei, becoming a family surnamed Duan; The rest are the clansmen who were led by Duan Ji and Lu to move east, and fled all the way east.

Nowadays, this part of the Duan clan is mainly active within the scope of Liaodong County and Lelang County.

Goguryeo's invasion of Liaodong destroyed the overall communication of Pingzhou, but the range of activities of Duan Xianbei was not restricted, but expanded a lot, and they began to invade Lelang on a large scale from the original edge of Liaodong, and there was a tendency to oppose the guest here and occupy one side.

The place where Duan Piyan and others are located is a county seat in Lelang County, called Hunmi County.

It stands to reason that there is still a Goguryeo between the Duan Department and the Yuwen tribe in Changli, and the news should have been transmitted to Goguryeo first, but the political structure of Goguryeo is more inclined to tribal governance, and the local political structure is built with the internal large tribes as the center, and the location of its royal city is quite far away, and in the reception and transmission of news, it is far inferior to the more complete Duan Department of Sinicization.

When Duan Piyan took the newly obtained information and came to Shan Yu's house, before he entered, he smelled a strong and pungent smell of medicine.

"Come in."

A slightly weak voice came from inside the room.

Duan Piyan's heart trembled slightly, then he collected his emotions, pushed open the door, and walked in.

"Shan Yu."

With a whispered greeting, Duan Piyan's gaze fell on the figure on the bed.

Duan Ji Lu was lying on the bed, covered with a thick futon, his exposed cheeks thin and pale, and his eyes were deeply sunken.

Next to the bed were several women waiting, and a few guards stood not far away.

Hearing the voice, Duan Ji Lu reluctantly opened his eyes, revealing a slit.

"What is the matter with this visit? But the Xuanjia Crusade? ”

Duan Piyan came to Duan Jilu's side and whispered: "It's a matter of Youzhou's eastward advance, Zhang Fang led the army to the east, stopped in the city of Yuwen Ministry, and actually killed Yuwen Yidougui, occupied his city, and gathered the people, it is estimated that he wants to reorganize the Yuwen people and continue the eastward crusade." ”

"Yuwen Xiao'er doesn't know the general trend, and it's no surprise to die," Duan Ji Lu's voice was hoarse and low, every word, every sentence, seemed to be squeezed out of his throat, and there was a feeling of iron pot rubbing, "Zhang Fang is attacking, it must be Youzhou who is going to make a move against Pingzhou, and it is not in vain that I will attract that Goguryeo!" ”

Hearing this, Duan Piyan's heart moved, and he carefully looked at this seriously ill clan Shan Yu.

The contact with Goguryeo was actually at the behest of Duan Jilu's family.

"If Youzhou moves, no one in Pingzhou can stop it, and he Goguryeo only has one dead word, and now if they are introduced, they can be blocked in front of us......"

"But you have to wait for me to move south, and then delay time?" Duan Piyan asked.

Duan Ji Lu closed his eyes, as if he was tired, and after a long while, he said, "It's to create opportunities for us." ”

"Opportunity?" Duan Piyan's heart moved again, thinking of what this Shan Yu did, he felt something.

Since that escape, the Duan clan people moved from Youzhou to the bitter cold land of Liaodong, and the bad weather here has affected the entire ethnic group, because they are accustomed to the climate and environment of Youzhou, and suddenly came to such a poor place with mountains and bad waters, and I don't know how many people have been sick because of this.

At this time, Duan Ji Lu inherited the position of Shan Yu, and immediately took the lead, led the clansmen to overcome obstacles, stepped forward, and personally opened up the place of settlement, and finally gathered the consensus of the clansmen and shaped a new situation.

However, this poor mountain and bad water environment will not be exempted because of strong will.

After all, Duan Ji Lu is a mortal in the flesh, shouldering the burden of the race, and personally going to the harsh environment, those illnesses will not bypass him because he is Duan Shan Yu, so after more than half a year of hard work, this Shan Yu finally fell ill.

Alone fell ill, no different from others, and his body soon collapsed.

However, compared with ordinary clansmen, he has an advantage in medicine, and many precious medicinal materials are provided to this seriously ill Shan Yu as much as possible, and finally his life was suspended.

But the bitter cold land was originally poor in resources, and other clansmen could only wait for death, Duan Ji and Lu dependents were also difficult to improve, and their health was deteriorating, and it was difficult for them to take on the burden of leading the clansmen.

For a year, the actual person in power was Duan Piyan.

After a bit of business, now this power is consolidated, and what is lacking is nothing more than that name.

Considering Duan Jilu's physical condition, Duan Piyan knew very well that he really sat in that position, but it was a matter of time, in this case, he did not kick Duan Jilu's dependents, but was very respectful and often inquired about political affairs.

Duan Ji and Lu also had a lot of guidance, and helped him establish his prestige, and the two sides complemented each other quite well, but the friendship was still there.

"If Goguryeo comes, most of them will come first, their clan is biased outside, they don't know the strength of the Central Plains, and so their troops are defeated in Zhang Fang, you can take advantage of the weakness to enter, if it is smooth, then take the foundation of Goguryeo, recreate the Duan clan, if it is not smooth, then kill the nobles of Goguryeo, belong to Youzhou, and drive the king!"

"This ......" Duan Piyan frowned, a little hesitant.

Duan Ji Lu seemed to be aware of it, and said: "The momentum of the Chen family is by no means idle, or it can be a great cause, if it can be returned, it should follow the example of the seven products, merge with the Duan family, leave the fire, and there may be a chance to succeed in the future, if not, the lessons of Yuwen's previous car are not far away......"

Speaking of this, he was very tired and fell asleep, leaving Duan Piyan alone to ponder in place, and finally made a decision, arching his hand at Duan Ji Lu and retreating here.

A few days later, Liu Kun and his entourage also arrived in Jixian County.

This Assassin Shi of Bingzhou, the Assassin Shi faded away from embarrassment and regained his demeanor, but his face was extremely solemn, and he couldn't see the joy of coming to a peaceful place at all, and there was a thick sadness in the depths of his eyes.
