Bu Dugen didn't know if he had suffered the loss of the Han people before this, he had been scanning Tian Chou with suspicious eyes and said: "I'm afraid that after you defeat the three major tribes, when you take advantage of the victory to pursue the attack, you will also wipe out our central and eastern Xianbei?!" ”

Tian Chou smiled calmly and calmly: "If you don't worry, King Youxian, we can have a piece in the covenant, and our Han Central Army will definitely not take the initiative to attack Xianbei in your central region." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

Budugen said again: "How do we know that you are not a delaying tactic. Now that your Han territory is divided, once your great general sweeps the world in a few years, how can we still compete with you! ”

Tian Chou followed the oath gesture of the Xianbei people, pressed his chest with his hand, bit his index finger, smeared blood on his heart and said: "I swear on behalf of the Han Dynasty and the general, and swear with my life, if our Han Central Army takes the initiative to attack Xianbei, my Tian Chou will be killed by ten thousand arrows through the heart." ”

The head and those adults and handsomes in the middle of Xianbei saw Tian Chou make such a tragic blood oath, they all believed it and believed it, only Bu Dugen sneered in his heart: "The Han people often say that soldiers are not tired of cheating, how can the life of Tian Chou alone be compared with the lives of millions of people in our Xianbei entire clan, Jin Liang will turn his face ruthlessly when the time comes, like Liu Che, he will fight with the strength of the country, Tian Chou is pierced by ten thousand arrows, and our Xianbei is still finished!" ”

Bu Dugen looked at his brother's solemn expression, knowing that he had been ignored by this Tian Chou, so he shut up and waited for the future to persuade him, in fact, Bu Dugen was very interested in accepting the three large tribes of Xianbei in the west that were disabled by the Central Army.

After Tian Chou finished his oath, he solemnly added: "There is a premise that our Han Central Army does not take the initiative to attack you, you must withdraw from the Hetao and retreat to the north of Wuyuan County, and you must not lead troops into the Han border without authorization.

Our general said that he hopes that the future pattern is that you will graze well in the grassland, our Han people will cultivate well in Hetao, and you will use your cattle, sheep and horses to exchange food with us, and each will learn from its strengths and make up for its shortcomings, as long as we do a good job in trade and mutual markets, you will not have to invade our Han border to have enough food and clothing, and we will definitely provide you with cheap, good and sufficient grain, silk, tea, ceramics and other items for the peace of the border, which is a win-win situation for everyone. I hope you can cherish it! ”

"Plenty of food and clothing?! Win-win?! Leader Shan Yu was attracted by the beautiful vision depicted by Tian Chou, although he was the grandson of Tanshi Huai, he was not as ambitious as his grandfather, and he would not trade with the Han for his own ambition, regardless of the hunger of the people below. [

The scene of Uncle and Lian being shot to death by the sharpshooters of the Northland County was still hovering in the hearts of the leader, and if they could get food, silk and other necessities through non-war means, why would they risk their lives to attack the towering city of the Great Han.

Although Kuitou Shan Yu was already inclined to form an alliance with Jin Liang in his heart, he refused to fully reveal his attitude, and said quietly: "Let this Shan Yu discuss with the tribesmen, and then come back to you, you have come to Xianbei Mountain this time, thousands of miles away, you are already very tired, come here, take the envoys of the Han Dynasty to rest." ”

Tian Chou walked out of the main hall, and Bu Dugen asked impatiently: "Da Shan Yu, what do you think, do you want to accept Jin Liang's covenant?" ”

The head glanced at the tribal lords and little marshals in the main hall, all of whom were his cronies, and only occupied one-fifth of the power of the entire Xianbei Alliance, not only those adults and little marshals in the eastern Xianbei were not in the Xianbei royal court, but even some of the big tribal leaders in the central Xianbei did not come to the main hall, so he shook his head and said: "Just the consent of our people is not enough, we need to consult the leaders of the big tribes in the east and the middle, if they can work together with us, they will not go to rescue those people in the west, Only then can we calmly absorb the remnants of those tribes in the west. ”

Tian Chou returned to the tent arranged for him by the Xianbei people, in the middle of the night. A dark shadow crept close to Tian Chou's tent.

Tian Chou, who was lying in his clothes, heard a few strange insect chirpings outside the tent, so he lowered his voice and shouted: "The Heavenly King covers the tiger!" ”

The man outside whispered back, "Pagoda Town River Demon!" ”

Tian Chou didn't have time to slander the lord's code, how could it be so strange, he hurriedly got up. [~] quietly called out to the retinue and let the man outside in.

After the man outside came in, Tian Chou took advantage of the faint moonlight. I vaguely saw that the person was actually a Xianbei person, blonde hair and blue eyes, I was very surprised, and muttered to myself: "Why did Jia Wenhe install a Xianbei person as an internal response?" ”

The Xianbei-looking Nei Ying's ears were very pointed, he heard Tian Chou's nervousness and defense, and quickly explained: "Lord Tian, my father is a Xianbei person, and my mother is a Han person. When I was very young, my father died in the tribal strife among the tribesmen, and I was taught by my mother since I was a child, although I am Xianbei on the outside, but I am Han at heart, and I am committed to the Xianbei to Sinicization, which is my unswerving goal, and I will actively cooperate with Tian Daren this time. Achieve the General's strategic goal this time. ”

Tian Chou stared at this white-skinned and yellow-hearted inner response and said, "What's your name?" "Tian Chou is now deep behind enemy lines, and he can only choose to believe this person.

This Neiying smiled and said: "My name is Yuwensi, because my mother often misses the big man, so I am named Si." ”

Tian Chou could see that this Yuwensi's face did reveal admiration for the big man, and his heart suddenly became clear. asked with a smile: "Your surname is Yuwen, you should belong to the Yuwen tribe, you should belong to the eastern Xianbei, and now you should be in Liaodong, why are you in the Xianbei royal court on the Xianbei Mountain?!" ”

Yuwensi explained: "Lord Tian, do you know, more than ten years ago, the Yuwen tribe did not surrender to Lao Shan Yu Tanshi Huai, Lao Shan Yu sent troops to attack the Yuwen tribe, at that time there was a little handsome in the Yuwen tribe who took a fancy to my mother and wanted to murder my father, and my father learned in advance that he took my mother to Lao Shan Yu, Lao Shan Yu learned from my father that the Yuwen tribe was detailed, so he easily defeated the Yuwen tribe, although the Yuwen tribe surrendered to Lao Shan Yu, but hated my father to the core, when Lao Shan Yu died, A few handsome people in the Yuwen tribe joined forces and attacked and killed my father, and I was forced to stay in the Xianbei royal court and not return to the Yuwen tribe. ”

Tian Chou asked, "Then do you have any plans to destroy the Yuwen tribe and avenge your father?" ”

Yu Wensi shook his head and said: "After all, it is my father's clan tribe, I only hope that all the Xianbei tribesmen can be sinicized, and we can all become the people of the Han Dynasty. ”

Tian Chou patted Yuwensi's shoulder and said, "As long as you follow the general loyally, your wish will come true sooner or later." ”

In the following days, under the guidance of Yu Wensi, who was familiar with the distribution of Xianbei's internal forces, Tian Chou visited the leaders of seven or eight major tribes in the central and eastern Xianbei regions, and won the favor of these leaders with the fine silk, tea, and treasures he brought.

There are a number of tribal leaders who are very hostile to the Han and disdain the silk tea brought by Tian Chou, but many of their younger brothers have smoked the elixir and forget the worries secretly brought by the agents of the Central Army before this, and the addiction in that regard has been so deep that they can no longer get rid of it, when these Xianbei noble brothers received the elixir and forget the worries quietly brought by Tian Chou again, they had a very good impression of Tian Chou, as if Tian Chou was their reborn parents, they remembered what Tian Chou told them, and then went to persuade their fathers to temporarily make friends with the Han, It is not too late to wait for Xianbei to become an enemy of the Han Dynasty after it is unified and strong. The tribal leaders who were hostile to the Han were persuaded by their younger brothers.

A few days later, Kuitou held the Xianbei tribe conference again, this time the western Xianbei was completely excluded, all the central Xianbei and the eastern Xianbei tribesmen, small marshals, in this conference, Tian Chou also saw Jin Liang let him pay close attention to the Xianbei Xiaoshuai Kebineng.

Kebineng's age is similar to that of Budugen, they are all in their early twenties, just served as a tribal marshal, he fights bravely, deals with things fairly, every time he gets a little money, he distributes it openly and transparently, so he has to be dead, his tribe is close to the border, Kebi can be different from other tribal leaders, he can seize this advantageous point, and actively learn the art of war, weapon building technology, farming technology with the Han people, learn all the things that the Han is ahead of Xianbei, in just one or two years, his tribe has become prosperous, It's just that Kebineng is still very low-key now, because he is close to the white horse general Gongsun Zhan, if he doesn't keep a low profile, he will definitely be hit by Gongsun Zhan's thunder, and he has to temporarily clamp his tail and be a man. In history, it was the fall of Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shao, and the lack of powerful people in Hebei, that Kebineng dared to expand his power dramatically.

The Kuitou and Budugen brothers were originally worried that the leaders of the various tribes in the central and eastern parts would oppose the peace with Jin Liang, but they did not expect that their proposal would be agreed to by most of the tribal leaders, of course, the premise of their agreement was that the livestock tribes of the large tribes in the western Xianbei should give them a part, and their interests should also be taken care of in the trade and exchange with the Han court. When several elders such as Xianbei Suli, Mijia, and Que Ji in the east agreed, and Kebineng, who was in the limelight in the central Xianbei, also agreed, occasionally a few small tribal leaders who were good friends with Xianbei in the west did not dare to speak out.

In order to prevent some tribes that are good friends with Xianbei in the west, Tian Chou asked the head to send troops to seal the main road to prevent someone from ventilating the news, who knows that Tian Chou does not ask for it, this request inspired the younger brother of the head Bu Dugen, and when Tian Chou came out of the main hall, Bu Dugen smiled and said: "Da Dan Yu, have you heard the story of the Han people that the snipe and the clam compete for the fisherman's profit?" ”

The head of the head and Bu Dugen have a very tacit understanding, and when he heard Bu Dugen say this, he laughed and said: "Not only do we not send people to report the news, but we also let people go to report to Zhi Luoluo, Tuoba Deduction, and Yan Liyou, so that they can be prepared, don't be raided by Jin Liang, it is best if they lose both, we can calmly collect the remnants of Zhi Luoluo, Tuoba Deduction, and Yan Liyou, and don't worry about Jin Liang posing a threat to us." ”

Tian Chou walked out of the hall, he felt a little regretful in his heart, he guessed from Bu Dugen's happy eyes just now, the head and Bu Du Gen brothers had no intention of keeping this military secret for themselves, and they would soon know the general's military plan, and the prepared Western Xianbei would not be very easy to fight.

Tian Chou hurriedly went to find Yuwensi, and in Yuwensi's tent, Tian Chou met another famous young man in Youzhou, Yan Rou.

Yan Rou looked less than twenty years old, with a warm smile on her handsome face, extremely sunny, making it difficult for Tian Chou to imagine that this was a Han man who had been taken as a slave by the Xianbei people since childhood. A few years after Yan Rou was plundered by the Xianbei people, Xianbei fought with the Wuhuan people, Yan Rou was once again taken away by the Wuhuan people as a slave, I don't know what kind of personality charm Yan Rou has, and convinced the Wuhuan and Xianbei people, although the relationship between Wuhuan and Xianbei is extremely tense now, Yan Rou is left and right, and is regarded as a guest by Xianbei and Wuhuan people.

In the history that Tian Chou didn't know, a few years later, Xianbei and Wuhuan helped Yan Rou kill Xing Ju, the then captain of Wuhuan and replaced him, after Liu Yu was killed by Gongsun Zhan, his old department Xian Yufu, Qi Zhou, Xian Yuyin, etc., because of Yan Rou's fame, recommended Yan Rou as Wuhuan Sima, and with the help of Wuhuan and Xianbei people, he confronted Gongsun Zhan, and fought with Gongsun Zhan's general Zou Dan in the north of the Lu River, killing Zou Dan and more than 4,000 people.

Tian Chou couldn't guess whether Yan Rou was pro-Han or pro-Xianbei, so he couldn't talk to Yan Rou, and wanted to send Yan Rou away with a lie, Yan Rou saw Tian Chou's disguise, and said with a smile: "Brother Tian, are you worried about preventing the leader from reporting to the western Xianbei?" ”

Tian Chou's eyes widened, he looked at Yan Rou in surprise, and couldn't help but say, "I'm worried about this, I don't know what you can do?" As soon as the words came out, Tian Chou realized that something was wrong, what if Yan Rou and Xianbei were of the same mind.

Yan Rou turned a blind eye to Tian Chou's vigilance, and said calmly: "Brother Tian, you can ask Wuhuan Shan Yu to help!" ”

Tian Chou frowned and asked, "Badden?!" Isn't he Wuhuan Shan Yu Qiu Liju's subordinate? Qiu Liju is still here, why did he become Shan Yu? ”

Yan Rou said with a smile: "Brother Tian, just a few days ago, Qiu Liju died of illness, his son Lou class was young, and he had a martial strategy from Zi Badun, and he was established as Wuhuan Shan Yu, and he was the head of the three kings, but the three kings of Wuhuan, Su Fuyan, and Wuyan all violated the Yin of the three kings, and now is the best time for the imperial court to show favor to Wuhuan, if Brother Tian can go to Wuhuan, claiming that the emperor of the Han Dynasty is willing to canonize Dun Dun as Wuhuan Shan Yu, and Badun will be grateful to Dade, and then he can let him send troops to block the connection between the eastern and central Xianbei and the western Xianbei. ”

Yan Rou's words made Tian Chou fall into deep thought, and now he is sending a letter to ask the general for his opinion, it is too late, he must make a quick decision, should he pull Wuhuan into this war together.

At the end of the 3rd century B.C., the Xiongnu Dadan was born in Maodun, swept through Donghu, Wuhuan was forced to migrate to Wuhuan Mountain, and then took the name of the mountain as the clan name. In 119 B.C., the Han army broke the Xiongnu, expelled the Xiongnu from Monan, Wuhuan and subordinated to the Han Dynasty, and moved south to Shanggu, Yuyang, Youbeiping, Liaoxi, Liaodong five counties outside the herd, on behalf of the Han Northern Xiongnu. In 49 A.D., Wuhuan moved south from the five counties to the ten counties on the edge of Liaodong, Yuyang and Shuofang, which is now the lower reaches of the Liaohe River, the northern part of Shanxi Hebei and the Hetao of Inner Mongolia. Wuhuan moved south twice during the Han Dynasty and gradually developed and grew. However, it was under the jurisdiction of the Han Hu Wuhuan Lieutenant, and was divided into several tribes, each with its own government. A unified tribal alliance has never been formed.

After Wuhuan migrated south, his original place of residence was occupied by Xianbei; The few who stayed outside the Cypriot region have been subjugated to Xianbei since the beginning of the 2nd century. Saiwai Wuhuan often helped Xianbei and the Southern Xiongnu to plunder the Han border; Sene Wuhuan mostly fought against Xianbei and Xiongnu from Wuhuan Captain. The Eastern Han court also frequently used Wuhuan cavalry to suppress rebels in various places. In the second year of Emperor Ling's Zhongping, Zhang Wen was ordered to be the general of the chariot cavalry, and 3,000 horses from Wuhuan in Youzhou were sent to Guannei to suppress the Qiang Rebellion in Liangzhou. Wuhuan was requisitioned due to the number, the death was slightly exhausted, the people's hearts were fluctuating, the army had no fighting spirit, and they all fled to the various departments of Youzhou without a fight. Zhongping four years. Taishan Taishou Zhang Ju, Zhongshan Minister Zhang Chun and other opposed, on the use of Youzhou Wuhuan, Kou plundered Qingzhou, Xuzhou, Youzhou, Jizhou four states, Zhang Chun called himself the king of Mitian stability, as the marshal of Wuhuan in the counties. In the sixth year of Zhongping, Zhang Chun died, and the Wuhuan army also collapsed. Later Gongsun Zan befriended Wuhuan when he was hegemonic in Hebei and was known as the White Horse General.

Senevuhuan at this time. There are four forces, Qiu Li lives in Bingtun Liaoxi, is a big single Yu, leading more than 9,000 falls, and one falls into a large household. There should be an average of ten people, probably a tribe of more than 90,000 people, Nanlou Tun soldiers go to the valley, leading more than 5,000 falls, it is a big tribe with 50,000 people, Qiu Liju and Nanlou are each kings, and the remaining two are weaker, Su Fuyan is in the subject country of Liaodong, leading more than 1,000 people, probably more than 10,000 people, claiming to be the king of Qiao, Wuyan Tun soldiers are in Youbeiping, leading more than 800 people, about 8,000 people, claiming to be the king of Khan Lu, Nanlou, Su Fuyan, and Wuyan are all brave and healthy people, Qiu Liju can deter them, in addition to being more powerful, but also has its own way of control. Now Qiu Liju is dead, Zilou is young, and he has a martial strategy from Zi Dang, and he is established as Wuhuan Da Shan Yu, and the three kings are in charge, and everyone obeys his decree.

Tian Chou thought about it carefully for a while, and resolutely said: "As long as it is beneficial to the overall situation, everything can be done!" It's just that I have no dealings with that Wuhuan person, I'm afraid it's hard to convince them, Brother Yan, can you help me? ”

Yan Rou bowed down and said, "I don't dare to ask for ears." ”

Tian Chou falsely claimed to the leader that he had completed his mission and was going back to report to the Son of Heaven and left the Xianbei Court.

After a few miles, Yan Rou waited on the side of the road, and Tian Chou, under the leadership of Yan Rou, went to Karasuma Mountain in western Liaoxi and met the new Wuhuan Shan Yudun. (To be continued.) )
