Chapter 280: Know Yourself and Know Your Enemy
There was a commotion outside the felt tent, and the voices of people were boiling, but the two people in the felt room were silent, looking at each other.
The rich aroma of wine and meat wafted in, mixed with the cheerful rhythm of singing and musical instruments, which did not affect the mood of Ke Bineng and Yu Zhuqi in the slightest.
One of the two had a straight face, and the other had a solemn expression, quite a needle-to-wheat posture.
Kebi can grow like a tiger's back and bear waist, extremely burly, Yu Zhuyan is also a young man, majestic, the two of them stand outside the felt tent can be seen in a place, if it weren't for Yu Zhuqian has been threatening to be Kebineng's son-in-law, in fact, many clansmen feel that the two of them are like father and son.
After a while, Kebineng said in a deep voice: "Are you guilty? ”
Yu Zhuyu was neither humble nor arrogant: "What is the crime? ”
Kebineng smiled angrily, "We are now in the territory of the Han Dynasty, in Youzhou, they are the hosts, we are the guests, the host invited us to come in as guests, do business, and give us food and clothing, you covet the things of the master's house, and you still kill and rob, and you are not guilty?" In the future, don't you want to enter my felt tent? I still have to prevent you from robbing me of my things and killing me. ”
"We are all Xianbei people, they are Han people, if according to the adults, we are a family, they are just neighbors. This neighbor is very weak, I can rob if I want, kill if I want, but when I get home, I will never do anything wrong. ”
Yu Zhuyan retorted: "My lord, do you think that Yu Zhuqi is ambitious and wants to rebel? If that's the case, please speak up, although Yu Zhuyu is young, he also knows how to measure, I really respect important people, but adults don't allow me, the world is big, and someone can tolerate me. As long as the adults speak, Yu Zhuyu must walk neatly and neatly, and will not cause any trouble to the adults. ”
Kebi Neng frowned, his slightly narrowed eyes were as sharp as a wolf Gu Kite's gaze, "Are you threatening me?" ”
Yu Zhuqian was not afraid of Zhiyu Zhuying, but he was in awe of Kebineng from the bottom of his heart, and when he saw that Kebineng was angry, the face that was scarred by Liu Zheng immediately trembled slightly, and he said stubbornly: "Uncle Zhiyu Zhuqian also said this kind of thing." But my lord, now they are the ones who killed me, and in that battle, the handsome and brother of the lord also fulfilled his reputation as Liu Zheng and swept away the face of his own people. If adults can't even take care of the interests of their own people, people's hearts will inevitably be scattered, and it is better for everyone to gather and disperse. ”
Kebineng's face was extremely gloomy, and his eyes were murderous, "Am I too merciful, so that you feel that you can do anything wrong when you are by my side?" ”
Yu Zhuyu's eyes dodged, and he said in a weak heart: "I'm the only one, the people of the tribe listen to me, and I don't know the others......"
Kebineng looked at Yu Zhuji deeply, "I'm talking about your tribe, all the people in your Yu Zhuji tribe!" Don't think that your father and a few brothers died in battle, and you can be bold. There are so many people who die on the battlefield! Everyone is as disobedient as you are, so what do you want me to do? Do you respect me and treat me as an adult, because I am a bully? At your mercy? All right! I don't want to be an adult anymore, you go find someone else! ”
Kebi Neng turned around and walked to the door, Yu Zhuji panicked, it was the first time he had heard Kebi Neng say this kind of abdication to make Xian angry, if Kebi Neng really didn't become an adult, he could imagine how all the tribes in the central Xianbei would be bullied by many tribes in the east and west.
The three parties are all enmity, once Kebineng leaves, it is still because he is angry, it is conceivable that he will become the target of the public, and be retaliated against by the friendly Kebineng clansmen, and even the east and west departments value him on the surface, and they dare not get too close to a person like him who does not obey discipline behind his back.
He can't afford this crime, and he doesn't want to bear it, plus he used to boast of being the son-in-law of Kebineng, which is a breakthrough that can humiliate Kebineng for people of the other two races, unless he flatters others in the future, or is born and dies to establish military exploits, otherwise, how can their tribe be taken seriously?
But he couldn't bend down to flatter, and there were not many opportunities to make contributions......
Moreover, Kebi can be regarded as the best adult in the three parts of Xianbei East, Middle and West, and Yu Zhuqian is reluctant, but he still thinks that Kebi Neng may just be talking, until Kebi Neng walked to the door and shouted: "Hou Luohou!" Tell everyone to disperse! Let them go back to Xianbei, you and I won't go back! From now on, I don't deserve this adult! ”
The noise near the door suddenly quieted down, and a stunned and absurd expression appeared on the faces of Hou Luohou, Mo Hubao and others, and then the stunned and absurd expression spread throughout the camp like a plague, and the human voice also became the center of the circle, and with the spread of the absurd expression, it became smaller and gradually fell silent.
There was silence in the camp, as if someone had pressed the pause button, everyone turned their heads to look at this side, maintaining their posture, and the strangeness of the sudden silence made Tho Luohou stand up at a loss, and Kebineng shouted: "Wait for what, pack up your things......"
"Eat yours!"
Yu Zhuqian came back to his senses, grabbed Kebineng, hurriedly pulled down the door curtain, and pulled Kebineng in, "The adult forgives the sin, Yu Zhuji knows the mistake, the adult forgives the sin......"
……
"Eat it all!"
Outside the felt tent, seeing that Hou Luohou couldn't react drunk, Mo Hubao raised his hand and shouted.
Everyone pretended to speak, but most of their expressions were solemn, and many of them were still talking to each other, looking at Liu Zheng with some hostility, Mo Hubao pulled Luo Hou to sit down, and toasted Liu Zheng with some embarrassment: "Liu Gongzi, drink and drink." ”
"How do you drink this wine? Although I don't understand what your adults say, but everyone's looks, heh, or I'll wait......"
The expressions of those Xianbei people obviously blamed Liu Zheng's head for Kebineng's "abdication and Xian", Liu Zheng didn't understand but also felt hostility.
He glanced at Lu Zhi, who was thoughtful, and was about to stand up, when Zonu put his arms around his shoulders, "What did Liu Gongzi say...... Hiccup, ate this leg of lamb. Adults are just joking, and they can't be taken seriously. In the past, I often complained in front of us...... Hiccup, but it seems that I haven't talked about it for four or five years, and it's the first time I've been so angry in front of everyone. ”
Zhiyu Zhuyu nodded again and again, flipped the roasted whole sheep on the bonfire, cut off a piece with a knife, wrapped it in leather and handed it to Guan Yu, "Yes, it's Yu Zhu's anger, Zigangong, Liu Gongzi, you can sit in peace." Fang Cai Yu must have softened. When they're done, they'll give you an explanation. ”
Lu Zhi covered up by drinking, gave Liu Zheng a look, and then pulled Tai Shici to ask about the situation in Luoyang and Liaodong.
……
After a burst of kind words and persuasion, Kebineng finally succumbed to the Hu bed, Yu Zhuqian said nervously: "My lord, I am just ignorant, you can teach more in the future, if I make a mistake, just hit it." This kind of foolish talk is absolutely unspeakable. ”
Kebineng snorted coldly, "I don't dare to hit you, I'm going to leave if I don't agree." ”
Yu Zhuyan's face was hot, and he nodded with a dry smile: "Yes, killing and robbing is not good, and it is contrary to your thoughts." But I've already made a mistake, you can't tell me to go to see the Han officials turn themselves in, right? Besides, I also have an explanation for the tribesmen. They died and wounded because of me, and even if I was for them, and my father and brother who had died, I could not ruin the reputation and prestige of the tribe. ”
Yu Zhu's father died on the battlefield following Tanshi Huai's invasion of the Han land, and the two brothers also died in the confrontation with Putou and Budugen. Do you think you can get away with it by persevering like this? The great sacrifice is imminent, and this kind of thing has happened, and you have already embarrassed your tribe. ”
"Suli, Gongsun Du, or Putou...... Yes, you flattered them, you were left and right, and you also killed the Han people, without the slightest fear, and you have the demeanor of your predecessors. But now it's different from the past, you still want to kill, are you worthy of me? You are my person again, and no matter how good you are at making friends with outsiders, you just go against my will. You are harboring evil intentions. ”
"Designing to kill, and making people turn against and kill a lot of people with one blow, is to lose your own face. If you really take refuge in Putou and Suli, what will you think of them? Also this neighbor is very weak, and he has to take into account the thoughts of his clansmen...... has the ability to kill Liu Zheng single-handedly, and if he doesn't have the ability, he obediently admits punishment! You know that the nest is horizontal! ”
Most of these words are considered for their own interests, and the sentence "in the nest" made Yu Zhuyao's heart warm, remembering that Liu Zheng fought with Guan Yu and Mo Hubao before, although he didn't see it, but listening to the compliments of Mo Hubao and others, he also knew that although Liu Zheng fought and retreated, he was really able to compete with the six of them, he was knocked down by Liu Zheng with a punch before, not to mention, and suddenly smiled dryly: "Yu Zhuyu knows his mistake, and please make it clear." ”
Kebineng groaned: "For today's plan, you can only be considered to be able to truly solve this matter if you please Liu Zheng and Lu Zhi, otherwise, no one can help you." ”
Yu Zhuyu's face froze, and he was afraid that Ke Bineng would pick on it again, "How to please?" I have offended them severely, and they have been beaten and robbed, and the tribesmen have made enmity against them. Otherwise...... The adults arrange it, and I will cooperate. ”
Kebineng's eyes lit up, "Go back and gather the tribesmen, men and women, the old and the children will be fostered in my tribe, and the rest, including those who are still in Xianbei, will all go to Fuyang to gather, bring all your supplies, and prepare to take refuge in Liu Zheng." ”
Yu Zhuyu said in a panic: "My lord, this ......"
Kebineng said coldly, "You think I'm talking to you?" ”
The expression was already different from the anger of Fang Cai, but it was cold but had the power to look at everything, Yu Zhuqian hurriedly knelt down, and said uneasily: "The adult is just forcing me to admit punishment?" ”
"What if you don't punish you? Do you want all of us to bear the burden of the troubles you have caused? The three major tribes, our central part is the most friendly to the Han people, originally there were wars with the other two tribes, and the relatively weak tribes in our tribe hid in Youzhou, and everyone could recuperate for a few years, communicate with the Han people, and gradually become stronger. ”
Kobineng glanced at the curtain, "But now?" Just because of you, you want us to go to war with the Han Chinese? Gongsun Zhan has been waiting for the war for a long time, and Putou, Suli, Micah, and even Wuhuan and the Southern Xiongnu are also waiting for us to take advantage of the internal strife and foreign war. Internal and external troubles, always have a strong man to break his wrist. ”
He paused, his brows furrowed, "Since you sent it to the door to act cheaply for Liu Zheng, you must always block it for me." ”
Kebineng's direct call to Liu Zheng this time finally made Yu Zhuqian feel something, but he was concerned about the interests of the tribe, and hurriedly asked: "But my lord, what are we when the whole clan takes refuge in Liu Zheng?" It's simply not possible. Even if you and I give orders, the people will not listen. Not to mention ......"
Kebineng shook his head and said in a deep voice: "Defecting to Liu Zheng is to let you go south with him to resist Dong Zhuo, not to let you get out of Xianbei. You are still my people, this time you are representing me, forming an alliance with Liu Zheng, and going to the hinterland of the Central Plains to quell the rebels on behalf of Liu Bo'an. It's just that the supplies and equipment are all self-sufficient for your tribe. ”
Yu Zhuyu's face was full of consternation, he thought for a while, and hesitated: "My lord, the rebellion of the Southern Xiongnu Qiangqu was killed because of the repeated conscriptions of the Han Court. I waited for Zou Jing to go to Liangzhou once, and now I will go south with Liu Zheng, and I will not be afraid of ...... in the future."
Kebi can squint, "You don't have to scare me with the example of the Southern Huns. Aren't you happy? ”
Yu Zhuyu said frankly: "I waited for the past, I was isolated, Liu Zheng and I already had an enmity, Na Tian Yue became his subordinate again, and Gongsun Zhan was his fellow disciple." If they collude and find an excuse to murder them, the news may not be spread. At that time, we were regarded as thieves who copied the big man, and they were all killed and made meritorious contributions. ”
"As long as you control your subordinates, I can guarantee that Liu Zheng will never dare to act rashly. Even if he dares to move, Liu Boan will let people protect you. ”
Kebineng looked at the curtain again, and said with his eyebrows: "Yu Zhuqi, there are pros and cons to everything, you think about it, follow Liu Zheng, can you learn something new?" ”
Yu Zhuyu was stunned, "New things? ”
"Liu Zheng is very strong, his martial arts are extraordinary, and the soldiers and horses under his command are not much better than the white horses. Even I, at first, thought that he was going to give me a dismissal, but I never thought that this was a misunderstanding, and his people were really disciplined to this extent. ”
Kebineng patted Yu Zhuji's shoulder, "And his connections, identity...... Such a character, if you help him, you are actually helping yourself. When you come back, do you know how strong you will be? ”
Yu Zhuyu said: "Is it dangerous to seek wealth? ”
"Rich?"
Kebineng smiled, shook his head, and suddenly said: "This is not wealth, if it is just wealth, you already have it." My children are still young, and when you marry my eldest daughter, you will need to take care of the clan like Mo Huba, you look at his tribe, his wealth, even among the Han people, except for those top rich merchants, the rest of the people may not be comparable. ”
In Yu Zhu's stunned gaze, Kebineng's eyes narrowed slightly, and his face was solemn: "This is your life and mine." ”
Yu Zhuyu seemed to be suddenly electrified, the pores of his whole body were dilated, his blood was faintly boiling, and his heart was beating faster, "Life? ”
"How can a good man be limited to the scenery and wealth in front of him? We are weak, so we must defend, we must combine vertical and horizontal, step by step, and seek victory in stability. If we are strong, we have to do great things. Xianbei is divided, then let him join up, Wuhuan will descend to Han, then let him descend to us. Ding Ling is making trouble, then conquer him, and the Han land is rich, then ...... him"
When Kebi can say this, he can't help but look at the mantle, "One day, the big man will also be weak...... And, I have a hunch that this is such an opportunity. ”
He pinched Yu Zhu's tense face, "But we always have to be familiar with their land. No one has really stepped into the hinterland, and freely compared the map to understand every inch of land and every city wall of the Han Dynasty. Since you have this opportunity, why not try to learn more about them? ”
Yu Zhuyu felt that there was a fire burning in his chest, and said excitedly: "My lord, Yu Zhuyu will never give up!" ”
"You don't need to die, remember, your people are dead, you can't die, I am waiting to marry my daughter to you...... As soon as Fang just shouted, Lu Zhi and Liu Zheng would inevitably think that I was really pro-Han - no, in fact, I was really friendly to Han people, and I seriously wanted to have a good relationship with them...... However, the way of the world will always change, why do you think I don't drive out those tribes who oppose my goodwill to the Han people? Because they are useless now, it doesn't mean that they will be useless in the future, and if I am useless when I am alive, it does not mean that I will still be useless when I die. ”
Kebineng patted the back of Yu Zhuji's head, his head leaned over, his head and Yu Zhuji's head were pressed together, and his eyes were on Yu Zhuji's eyes, which were extremely sharp, "Send you a word, know yourself and know your opponent, and win all battles." ”
Yu Zhuyu gritted his teeth, his eyes were also sharp, and his face flushed and replied: "Lie down and taste the gall, or Ji Tailai!" ”
When the warm wind blows, the curtain of the door swings slightly, and a ray of sunlight spills in, which is intoxicatingly red.
