Chapter 239: Xianbei Civil Strife

After Gao Shun became the general of the expedition to the north, he transferred all the troops to the northern border counties and stationed, and continued to expand the army, causing great pressure on the Xianbei people in the central and eastern regions, resulting in the Xianbei tribes being preparing for war this year, and even the great cause of grazing was seriously affected, and even the central and eastern Xianbei were even more miserable, mysteriously losing many cattle, sheep and horses and other livestock, and the days of this winter will be even more difficult.

When the Han finished cleaning up the Wuhuan tribes, killing the killing, and co-opting the co-optation, the Xianbei people finally breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that the Dahan had to digest the existing fruits of victory before attacking Xianbei, which bought time for them to integrate their internal forces.

But they were disappointed, and after that, the Han continued to push the line forward, which made the Xianbei people feel a huge pressure, and they had to temporarily put aside the internal contradictions and prepare to unite with the outside world.

King Helian welcomed the offensive of the Han army, which would force the central Xianbei and eastern Xianbei to move closer to him, and he would have the opportunity to easily integrate the Xianbei tribes.

King Helian raided the western Xianbei the year before last, not only crippled the army of the Xiongnu Shan Yu and General Zuo, but also allowed him to incorporate a large number of western Xianbei towns and occupy the fertile pastures of Yunzhong County and Wuyuan County, and he was very complacent.

After more than a year of hard work, he finally completed the integration of the internal tribes and the army, which greatly increased his strength.

This year, not only was he not threatened by the military of the Han Dynasty, his grazing was not affected, but his strength increased greatly, and he was ready to incorporate the central and eastern Xianbei tribes at any time.

King Helian is not only mediocre in ability, but also greedy for money and lustful, and now he is even more arrogant, causing the Xianbei tribes to leave him, and only a few of his nephews are still at his disposal.

If the Great Han had punished the central and eastern Xianbei slightly, it would have been easier for him to co-opt.

Just when the central Xianbei and the eastern Xianbei were united and ready to unite with the outside world, King Helian was gloating, waiting to clean up the mess.

At this time, Dahanbian County suddenly exerted its strength, recovered the entire territory of Dingxiang County, attacked the two small tribes of Helian, and caused them to lose two county seats, more than 100,000 livestock and thousands of people.

This move made the kings of the Xianbei tribes very happy, and it turned out that the Han court valued the territory of Yunzhong County, rather than the barren land they occupied, so they began to fight among themselves again.

And King Helian was very frightened, could it be that the Han border army was targeting him? I want to recover Yunzhong County and Wuyuan County.

After thinking about it, he decided to immediately summon his three nephews to negotiate the war.

Bu Dugen alone in the east to bear the military threat of the Han border army and the central Xianbei, the pressure is very great, this year is very difficult, and his station is too close to Ningcheng, the main force of the Han border army, the Han cavalry can hit Danhan Mountain with a surprise attack, with his strength can not fight at all.

Putou and Fuluohan were in Wuyuan County, fighting against the Xianbei tribes in the west and the Xiongnu Youxian Wang tribe, and the pressure was much smaller than that of Budugen, which did not affect grazing.

Now Helian summoned them, and it was in their arms, if their headquarters were integrated, they would not be afraid of the Han Dynasty, or several other Xianbei and Huns.

He Lian's opinion was to abandon Danhan Mountain and move to Yunzhong County, so that the four of them would only face the threat of the Han Border Army to Yunzhong County, and the western Xianbei would definitely retreat, and if they occupied the northern area of Shuofang County, their strength would increase by leaps and bounds.

The move was supported by three nephews. King Helian's strategy was to use his three nephews to protect himself, but it was a good move, invisibly integrating the strength of their four divisions and strengthening their strength.

Although it is a little unbearable for them to give up Danhan Mountain, it is more important to reduce external threats, let the people graze with peace of mind, and occupy Shuofang County, which is rich in water and grass.

In the end, the four of them unanimously decided that King Helian would move to Gohara County and graze in Gohara County with Fuluohan; Budugen moved to Yunzhong County to resist the attack of the Han border army; Putou continued to seize the pastures and cattle and sheep in Xianbei in the west to strengthen its own strength; King Helian and Fu Luo Han provided military support to Budugen and Potou at any time, so that the four divisions could form a whole and work together to deal with external pressures and threats.

Budugen migrated away, and the happiest was the central Xianbei, so that they could occupy a larger area of pasture, but in the future, they would have to face the military pressure of the Han border army alone, and in general, the advantages outweighed the disadvantages.

The relocation speed was very fast, it didn't take a month, and by the beginning of October, the deployment had been completed, and the Budugen tribe took over Yunzhong County, and King Lian moved to Wuyuan County.

The troops of Potou and Fu Luohan began to plunder the western Xianbei, robbing the wealth of people and livestock.

Now the strength of Xianbei in the west is very weak, one of the main tribes in Xianbei in the west, the Yanliyou tribe was absorbed by King Helian, and the territory was occupied by King Helian; Another large tribe in the western Xianbei, the strength of the Zhiluoluo tribe was also greatly damaged in the last war, not only allowing the Xiongnu Youxian Wang to plunder a large amount of population and wealth, but also occupied the pastures and population of Wuyuan County by King Helian, and the strength was less than one-third of the previous one.

While regretting it, Luo Luo has been cautious for more than a year, not only to beware of the Xiongnu Right Xianwang Department, but also to beware of the King of Helian; Over time, it was a disaster for him; The Xiongnu Right Xianwang is still the king of Helian, no matter who integrates the fruits of victory first, he will be stabbed.

It has no strength and occupies the northern part of Shuofang County, which is rich in water and grass, which is the reason for the danger to the tribe.

The law of the jungle is even more vividly manifested in the nomadic tribes of the steppe.

As soon as the troops of Potou and Fu Luo Han set out westward, Zhiluo received the news and was prepared in his heart, and hurriedly ordered the tribe to move westward quickly.

At the same time, the Xianbei tribe, and also had to deal with the Xiongnu Youxian Wang Department and deal with the pressure of the Han border army, Putou was unwilling to fight hard, and did not fight against the Luoluo tribe to kill them all, but only incorporated some of the slow-moving Xianbei Yiluo.

And followed the large army of the Luoluo tribe, all the way to the west, and waited for the other party to pass Tu Shenze and get out of the chicken deer village before stopping.

When the Luoluo tribe saw that the army of King Helian had given up the pursuit, their nervous mood suddenly relaxed; After a short rest, he began to turn south, and incorporated other small Xianbei Yiluo along the way to strengthen his own strength.

There are more than 20 tribes in the entire western Xianbei, and their strength is not strong, and the arrival of the Luoluo tribe immediately caused a chain reaction, and some tribes began to take revenge among themselves, and took the opportunity to incorporate hostile tribes; Some tribes began to unite to deal with the danger that was coming; Some tribes began to migrate to escape the chaos that was coming.

The central Xianbei and the eastern Xianbei found that the Han army was targeting the territory of the western Xianbei, and there was no external pressure, internal contradictions began to brew, and the king of Lian had a very bad head, and the Xianbei tribes attacked each other.

The armies of the Xianbei tribes in the central and eastern parts have long been assembled, and this year's grazing has been severely affected, and they must wage war and gain foreign wealth to survive the cold winter.

Therefore, the tribal king took advantage of the loss of wealth such as cattle, sheep and horses to incite the hatred of his tribesmen against his neighbors, and the war between the tribes was logical.

Fortunately, the war between nomads is aimed at robbing people and wealth, killing is only secondary, although the war is fierce, the number of people who die is not much, only the rebels and the old, weak, sick and disabled are killed, women and children are also trophies of the tribe, they are important wealth; The old, weak, sick and disabled were killed only to reduce the burden on the tribe.

Some tribes were exterminated in civil strife, and some tribes rose strong in civil strife, which is the rule of the game for steppe nomadic tribes.

And Tian Feng chose to be a cold observer of what happened in the Xianbei tribe, and he was perfecting his plan in his heart.

This made the central Xianbei and the eastern Xianbei free to start a civil war, and each tribe wanted to take the opportunity to expand its strength in order to deal with the next war against the Han.
