Chapter 69: The Sandalwood is Dead
Stretching his waist, he finally finished approving the official document, which was really tiring for Shan Yu to do, but if he didn't toss so much, it would be much easier. Feeling that his ambition was realized step by step, Liu Yuan naturally enjoyed it.
This feeling of determining development with one word and deciding life and death with one word really makes him enjoy it. Turning his neck, he made a few soft sounds, looked at the large pile of bamboo slips on the case, frowned, and didn't know when those papermakers would be able to further improve the Caihou paper.
He had invested heavily in sourcing craftsmen to make paper more practical. can get a big profit, Liu Yuan is very attentive. It's a pity that he really doesn't know how to make paper, not to mention the process or something, there is only sporadic information in his mind, starting from the raw materials, mulberry skin, rattan bark can be, if you can use bamboo as raw materials to make paper, then papermaking is a major breakthrough.
What Liu Yuan can really do is only to allocate resources, place orders in Daling, and let the papersmith break through the papermaking technology as soon as possible, and he really can't do anything else. With Liu Yuan's pressure, the Han craftsmen kept trying, and the paper they made was difficult for him to satisfy.
Fortunately, there are bamboo forests on both sides of the river, and there are enough raw materials for them to try, and after a period of time, the process has improved, at least let Liu Yuan see hope and make him patient enough.
In the middle of spring and apricot moon, the first year of the Xiongnu's trial of the new system, Meiji was lively, and it was time to clean up the harvest brought by the new system. The lords of the tribes personally escorted the taxes collected from the various towns, settlements, and settlements to the Meiji offerings.
The herd of livestock gathered in all directions to Meiji, and the thousands of good horses alone almost made Liu Yuan happy. The most gratifying thing is that Liu Yuan can deeply understand the improvement of the control of the ministries, and he is very sensitive to the change of power.
Listening carefully to the reports of several adults, the comparison between the two in my mind and the two obtained by sending people to inspect and probe is really a lot worse. Liu Yuan didn't question this for the time being, maintaining his reform operation is the ultimate thing, he is more than eating meat, and he always has to give the people below a chance to drink soup.
Xu Bu Chiyi also returned to Meiji this time to report on his work, guarding the northern border for more than a year, and concurrently serving as the lord of the north, which is also considered a high authority among the Huns. and his brother Su Bugu Du Hou came to pay a visit.
"How is Shanan developing? How well are the Tu tribesmen integrated? Also, what is the situation of the Xianbei people? Pulling Chi Yi to sit down, Liu Yuan blurted out a series of questions.
Xu Bu Chiyi hadn't seen Liu Yuan for a long time, and the changes in Meiji also made him sigh, on the unfamiliar hall, Liu Yuan's power was growing, so that he didn't dare to look at it directly.
After organizing the language in his mind for a while, he replied calmly: "Da Danyu, Tu Geben is a branch of my Xiongnu, and since the tribe was incorporated into the north, it has been quickly integrated. The big clans such as Uroran and the Du clan have been suppressed, and the people at the bottom have risen, and they are very grateful to Da Danyu, and most of them support your reforms! ”
"Don't talk about flattery, how many Han people are there in Shanan? What is the current situation of the Xianbei people in Yunzhong and Wuyuan? Is there any abnormality? ”
"The Xianbei people wantonly plundered the two counties, and the Han people all fled, except for those who were sent to the royal court for resettlement, the ministers also collected three or four thousand displaced people. However, the Xianbei people have obviously reduced their troops, and the elites have been transferred to Danhan Mountain. Chi Yi said respectfully.
Liu Yuan's eyes froze when he heard this, his fingers tapped on the table, and after a long time, he asked out loud: "With the five thousand warriors of Shanan, can you and Holland Dangfu take the current Yunzhong?" ”
Xu Bu Chiyi asked suspiciously: "What does Da Shan Yu mean, to do something to Xianbei?" In the territory of Yunzhong, there are only five or six thousand Xianbei people, their combat power is average, and they are scattered everywhere, and they can be easily won with Shanan's current strength. It's just that it's too early to do it at this time. ”
"Well, let's see the situation first!" Liu Yuan's fingers tapping on the table suddenly stopped, and he turned his head to the Guduhou who couldn't speak next to him: "Guduhou, you are the Lord of the Left, the Huns on the left are the most important force of my Huns, he is going north to attack Xianbei, you have to do your best to support it!" ”
When the Marquis of Xubu Bone heard this, his face almost darkened, everyone knew that the core strength of the Xiongnu today was concentrated in the central Xianbei of Dadan Yu. When Liu Yuan said this, he obviously paid attention to the warrior source of the nobles on the left.
Looking at Liu Yuan's "earnest" eyes, where did he dare to refuse, the nobles on the left had been completely held in Liu Yuan's hands. couldn't help but glance at the expressionless Chi Yi beside him, if it weren't for this younger brother, where would the Xu Bu clan be so tied to the big single chariot, just in the past two years, the power that the Su Bu clan could control has shrunk by more than half.
……
At this time, Xianbei Shan Yuting, who is far away in Danhan Mountain, is a different scenery. The water of gargling is still rolling, and in this northern place, the weather is still terrifyingly cold, and the Xianbei tribesmen still dare not take off the heavy leather on their bodies.
Xianbei is worthy of being the overlord of the grassland in the world who controls the territory of thousands of miles, and the royal court of Danhan Mountain is much more magnificent than Liu Yuan's beauty. Hundreds of thousands of people gathered on the side, and warriors and horsemen shuttled among them, even if the winter passed, the prosperity was undiminished.
The lower-class people still live their own lives, but there are constant waves among the upper-class nobles of the royal court. Quietly, Danhan Mountain was already heavily armed, and several forces led by Helian and Putou were facing each other.
The big event is about to start, the waves are continuous, and an atmosphere of almost stagnation envelops the upper echelons of Xianbei, just because the body of the ruler of Xianbei, Tan Shihuai, has completely collapsed.
In this difficult winter, Tanshi Huai still couldn't survive and fell ill. coughed up blood several times and passed out several times, but now he has completely fallen into a coma and lost consciousness.
Around the big tent of Tanshi Huai, the atmosphere was extremely tense, the army was heavily surrounded, and the patrol soldiers patrolled back and forth, closely monitoring the surroundings, they were all Xianbei soldiers who belonged to Helian. After Tanshi Huai fainted for the first time, He Lian realized that something was wrong, and quickly mobilized troops to strengthen his strength in Shan Yuting, and even the elite knights who were placed in the clouds were recalled by his order.
After Tanshihuai fell into a coma completely, Helian, who was in control of the general situation of the royal court, quickly sent troops to watch Tanshihuai, and strictly forbade anyone to visit him. As soon as the sandalwood acacia fell, Helian couldn't hold back the ecstasy and excitement in his heart at all, once his father died, then he would become the new Xianbei Shan Yu, the king who controlled the territory of thousands of miles.
In the Xianbei people's tent, the three Xianbei upper-class nobles gathered, and the throne of Tanshi Huai was empty, headed by Helian.
"Uncle Helian, such a big battle, heavy troops to control the royal court, and heavy guards to restrict the freedom of the nobles, what do you want to do!" Seeing that Helian looked relaxed and proud, Pu Tou asked coldly.
glanced at his eldest nephew, and Lian's face was constricted, and there was a little chill in his voice: "Everyone, my father is seriously ill and dying, and after this cold winter, I am afraid that time is running out, and I won't be able to survive for long." At this special moment, in order to maintain the stability of my Xianbei, so as not to make trouble for the villain, I have to control it with heavy troops, I hope you will forgive me. ”
Many people nodded in agreement, and some people showed flattering smiles, showing favor and connection. The position of Helian's heir is almost unbreakable, Tanshi Huai is no longer good, and the next Shan Yu Tie will definitely be him.
Seeing the situation in the tent, Pu Tou's brows were full of gloom, and his eyes were solemn. He has his own ideas about the position alone, but unfortunately he has been in front of him, and the accumulation of so many years is not comparable to that of a rising star of the royal family. During this time, a group of nobles were gathered to oppose Helian, and they could only fight with their mouths, and if they wanted to get it real, they would be killed by Helian in minutes.
Hearing the warning in Helian's tone, Putou didn't dare to say more, the general trend of Danhan Mountain was completely controlled by Helian, no one could shake it, and his succession was only a foregone conclusion.
"Congratulations to the prince!" After everyone stepped back, some cronies smiled and bowed. He Lian couldn't help laughing, and then said: "Until the last moment, I am never at ease." My father too, kept breathing and made me suffer. ”
Speaking of this, Helian's eyes suddenly darkened, and he asked his cronies to come over and give orders. When the cronie heard this, he collapsed to the ground in fright, and said, "Prince, that's the king, let's wait for the king to die of natural illness!" ”
"I can't wait for a moment! The throne is in sight, but he just doesn't die. I'm giving him a ride, so that he won't suffer from illness, and I'm doing my filial piety! A hint of madness flashed in Helian's eyes, and he roared in a suppressed voice.
Seeing that his cronies were still staying there, he scolded lightly: "Don't go yet!" ”
……
Tanshi Huai died, died in the hospital bed, and did not even leave a word. This world-famous hero who crisscrossed the grassland died a little suddenly, in the prime of life, and felt a sense of unpaid ambition.
Within a few days, Helian quickly succeeded to the throne in Danhan Mountain, Xianbei, and ushered in the era of Helian.
