Chapter 1149: Forced to join the group
"What is his plan? How do you think? actually called back directly, do you really want me to wait for the obedient past, and let him be humiliated in Jixian County? ”
The news of Jixian County soon spread throughout most of the grassland in the running of a few fast horses, whether it was the Tuoba Department in the west, or the Tiefu Xiongnu on the other side of the river, and the Rouran headquarters in the barren land of the north.
Liu Yao, who had only one arm left, sat on a heavy chair decorated with fur, but his brows were tightly knit.
Time has left traces on his face, making his skin rough and gray, and the wind and frost of the grassland desert have bent his back a little, but these can't change the essence in his eyes.
The successive failures at the beginning did not defeat the Xiongnu nation, but the political struggle in the Xiongnu finally made him lose the foundation of his life, and he had to ask for help and refuge in Liu Yi.
At the most intense moment of the battle between Liu Yi and Liu Cong, Liu Cong had already realized the danger, and he saw that Liu Yi's foundation was too shallow and could easily break, so he proposed the idea of going north to integrate some tribes and introduce them as soldiers and horses.
This was originally a means of retreating, if Liu Yi's power was still stable and he could still fight with Liu Cong, then after integration, Liu Yao would lead people south to support the Hun Da Dan Yu.
According to the tradition of the Xiongnu, if you gain an advantage in military strength, then your voice in power will also increase.
But in the end, Liu Yi's situation still collapsed, and even in turn, he asked for help and shelter from Liu Yao, wanting to run over to him, the leader of Rouran.
Unfortunately, in the end, it didn't work out.
Losing the support and foundation of his headquarters, Liu Yao completely let go of his thoughts, integrated Rouran, ascended the throne of Khan, and paid attention to the news in the south, and had the intention of leading troops south at any time to snatch the orthodoxy of the Xiongnu.
But in the end, what I was waiting for was the war report of the collapse of the Xiongnu country.
For a moment, he had mixed feelings.
Liu Yao has always hated Chen Zhi, and regards him as an old rival, but now it seems that there is already a gap between himself and this old opponent.
"What did the Tuoba Department say?"
sighed with emotion, Liu Yao still had to think of a countermeasure.
"Tuoba Six Cultivators, I still hope that the Great Khan can go south, find a grassland, and talk about it," his subordinates reported truthfully, "Their meaning is very clear, since the Murong Department is in chaos, many of the grasslands they occupy are vacant, if you don't feel at ease, Great Khan, then you can choose a grassland, and the soldiers and horses on both sides will attack it together, and then talk on the spot." ”
"He has a heart for Tuoba Liuxiu, I heard that some time ago, this person was in danger and almost died, and now he is still alive, it shouldn't be a fake," Liu Yao showed a mocking look, "I have also met with him a few times at the beginning, this person is a very arrogant person, if he met the conditions proposed by the Chen family in the past, I am afraid that without saying a word, he will take someone to kill him, he will not obey, and now he is willing to negotiate, that is the meaning of compromise." ”
He gestured to the sand table in front of him.
"Ask me to talk, choose the grassland of the Murong Department, here is close to the south, east, close to Youzhou Jixian, the meaning is very clear, that is, in the end, it was agreed that if you don't dare to fight against Youzhou, then you can simply go south together and go to Jixian County."
When several of his subordinates heard this, they all showed a sad look and said, "The people of the Tuoba Department, there should be some conspiracy, or they have already agreed with Youzhou in advance, right?" ”
"Don't worry about this," Liu Yao shook his head, his expression was serious, "Just look at his Youzhou method of using soldiers, if he really wants to beat me, where do you need to unite with the Tuoba Department?" ”
The people heard some meaning from these words, and asked one after another, "What does the Great Khan mean?" ”
"Go! Of course you have to go! Liu Yao stood up, "If you don't go, you will become blind and deaf, this time you go south, whether you go to Jixian County or not, you can know what the situation is in the south of the desert and the north of the Central Plains, and ...... other."
His voice was much lower, with a hint of embarrassment: "I also want to understand where the scattered Xiongnu remnants are now, and what has happened." ”
Hearing this emotion, many deployments also fell silent.
At this time, within Rouran, especially the upper class, it was also divided into two factions, one was the native, and the other was the Xiongnu nobles who followed Liu Yao.
Due to the urgency of time, Chen Zhi did not leave much time for them, the leaders of the previous grassland tribes, out of instinct and fear, did not come forward, but chose to send envoys, now the envoys have been beaten back, and there is not much time left for the leaders, of course they dare not delay.
After all, no one dared to bet that the Xuanjia Army would not call.
In fact, the Murong Department had previously felt that the Xuanjia Army had fought on two fronts before, destroying the Xiongnu while recovering Pingzhou, which must have consumed a huge amount of money, and would not start the war lightly, but Murong Diao used himself to prove that this guess was wrong.
The lessons of the past are vivid, where do the other leaders dare to despise them anymore?
So, a few days later, several major clans, mainly the leaders of the three families of Rouran, Tuoba, and Tiefu, met in a grassland on the edge of the original Murong forces.
Just as Tuoba Liuxiu proposed, this time the three families sent troops together to wipe out a small tribe entrenched here, and then stationed there.
That small tribe originally belonged to the Murong clan, and it was a subsidiary, and there was even a certain blood relationship between it and the Murong clan, but now that the Murong clan was in chaos, the newly appointed Murong Han was not called Shan Yu, but called Donghu Lieutenant, and focused on gathering forces and strengthening control, so the originally peripheral subordinate tribes were freed and no one cared.
They have stolen the land of the original Murong Department and want to use it as a foundation for development.
But this small department was unlucky, because the geographical location was far away from Thorn City, I thought it was a safe place, but I didn't expect it to be valued by the three major departments and became cannon fodder.
After driving away the original owner, the three families agreed on a time, and did not rush to meet, but each consolidated its troops and horses and guarded each other.
It was not until noon on the second day that the leaders of the three families actually came out.
In the middle of the three armies, they built a shed, put on animal skins, and went out of their way.
Tuoba Liuxiu, Liu Yao, and Liu Hu, as the Big Three, sat in the innermost, and there were other scattered small clan leaders, as additional heads, sitting outside.
There are a lot of people, but the three people who can really make a decision are the innermost three people, and their decisions will affect the direction of the entire grassland.
But on the other hand, the three families mobilized their troops and horses like this, and of course they couldn't hide the intelligence department of Youzhou, so on the day of recall, there were several Xuanjia scouts who were exploring the surroundings, and they did not hide their traces.
