Chapter 363 [Looking for Cai Wenji]
Wei Yan looked at the map, north of Meiji City is Wuyuan County, and there is General Du Liao in Manbo City, Wuyuan County, who is responsible for managing various alien races in the north, and his authority is even above the general of the Huns.
Han Hao, who did logistics work with the army, was a native of Hanoi, adjacent to the annexation state, and knew more about the affairs of the annexation.
Seeing Wei Yan's eyes staring at Manbo City in Wuyuan County, he could guess Wei Yan's thoughts, and quietly said: "Lord, now not only are the Xiongnu tribes incompatible with each other, but they are fighting one after another, even that Xianbei is also divided and ununited. Since the death of Shi Huai, his son Yu Lian is extremely mediocre, unable to pacify the Xianbei tribes, and the Xianbei tribes are fighting each other for the territory of the various tribes, and there has long been a dispute between them, like a few dry firewood put together, just waiting for a fire, they can ignite the flames of war. Emperor Huan and Emperor Ling came, the world was chaotic, and Geng Zhi, the general of the original Liao, was mediocre, and there was no support from the imperial court, so he could not stabilize many foreign races in the north. As long as the general of Du Liao is fair, grace and power, he will be able to obey the heart of the Hu people, and over time, the Xiongnu, Xianbei, and Wuhuan departments will obey the lord and take over and return to obedience. ”
Wei Yan nodded: "I've had this heart for a long time, but I don't know who can be the general of Duliao?" ”
Han Hao chuckled and said, "In the opinion of his subordinates, this Liao general is none other than the lord." ”
Wei Yan frowned: "Yuan Hei, this position of General Duliao does not have such great authority, it is not much different from the authority of Captain Xianbei, General Hun Zhonglang, and Captain Wuhuan, and it is not enough to rule all the Hu people. ”
Han Hao said with a smile: "The border land is inhabited by many races such as Xianbei, Xiongnu, Wuhuan, Ding Ling, Qiang, etc., and there are many tribes in each ethnic group, but there are only Xianbei lieutenants, Xiongnu lieutenants, and Wuhuan lieutenants but they cannot be subordinate to each other, and they cannot serve the strategic purpose of using Hu to control Hu. ”
Wei Yan understood what Han Hao meant, and nodded: "What Yuan Hei said is extremely true, that is, in terms of the rank of our dynasty's military ranks, the general is under the jurisdiction of the Zhonglang general, the Zhonglang general is under the jurisdiction of the captain, and the school lieutenant is under the jurisdiction of the captain, and the authority of the general Duliao must also be improved, in order to be worthy of the title of general." After being promoted, General Duliao had under the jurisdiction of all the generals and lieutenants who protected Hu, and was in charge of all affairs in the border areas.
In addition, now that Xianbei is powerful, he will promote the captain of Xianbei to the general of Xianbei. Wuhuan is powerful, so he promoted the captain of Wuhuan to the lieutenant of Wuhuan Zhonglang General. The Qiang people are powerful, so they will promote the captain of Huqiang to the general of Huqiang Zhonglang, and Huqiang Zhonglang will also be in charge of the captain of Hudong Qiang. For Ding Ling and other alien races, he set up Hu Zhonglang to protect the east.
The Hun Zhonglang General, the Xianbei Zhonglang General, the Wuhuan Zhonglang General, the Huqiang Zhonglang General, and the Hudong Hu Zhonglang General are all subordinate to the Duliao General, and there are five Huhu lieutenants under each Hu Zhonglang General! ”
Han Hao was stunned for a moment: "Each Hu Zhonglang will have five Hu Hu lieutenants under them?" How should the powers of these five lieutenants be distributed? ”
Wei Yan remembered that if the history had not been changed, Cao Cao a few years later would have divided the surrendered Southern Xiongnu into left, right, south, north, and middle five divisions, scattered in the western area, each of which was placed in command and supervised by the Han people, of which Liu Bao, the left handsome, led more than 10,000 people to live in Lishi, Taiyuan County, the right lived in Qi County, the south lived in Puzi, the north lived in Xinxing, and the middle lived in Daling. The glory of the Xiongnu Maudun period is gone.
Wei Yan set up five lieutenants under each Hu Zhonglang general, which is the plan to have five parts of Hu.
Wei Yan smiled coldly and said, "No matter how many tribes each Hu clan has under their jurisdiction, in the face of my Han court, they will be divided into five departments and be responsible to the five captains stationed beside them in my Han court!" ”
Wei Yan's deep meaning, Han Hao could probably guess, so he didn't ask in detail, and asked instead: "Lord, you have a great responsibility, you are bound to not come to the border often, the lord needs to set up a deputy to supervise all the Hu Zhonglang generals, supervise all border affairs, and handle the daily affairs of all the generals of Duliao, how should such a position be established, and who will be the lord and prince?" ”
Wei Yan thought for a moment and pointed to the map: "This position was set up as the general of Duliao Zhonglang, held by Xu Huang, and the administrative office was set up in Manbo in Wuyuan County." ”
"How to distribute the 20,000 horses and 10,000 Hun cavalry in Xu Huang's hands?" As a former army division and marching commander, Xu Shu had to get detailed and clear orders from Wei Yan before he could issue military orders.
Wei Yan thought for a while, and suddenly felt that he had not thought about it before, so that now that the order has changed, he still has to order: "Zhu Ling was reappointed as the general of the Huns Zhonglang, and also led the Xihe County Lieutenant, and the four thousand cavalry under his command transferred one thousand elites to supplement my guards, Zhu Ling led two thousand men and horses to Lishi City to take office, Xu Huang left four thousand men and four thousand Hun cavalry to Zhu Ling, Zhu Ling commanded a total of 10,000 horses, responsible for guarding the southern part of Xihe County, preventing Huchuquan from going south, responsible for monitoring and training Liu Bao's men and horses, and at the same time cooperating with Xu Huang's headquarters in Manbo City, The Huchuquan was constantly attacked, and the local Tuntian Commander was in charge of Bai Bo's troops in the Pingyang area.
By the way, divide the 30,000 cavalry and 30,000 old and weak under Liu Bao into 10,000 cavalry and 10,000 old and weak and hand them over to Xu Huang and take them to Manbo City. Xu Huang led 10,000 horses and 4,000 Hun cavalry in his headquarters, and then recruited 5,000 men and horses in the local area, so that Xu Huang could gather 20,000 horses. Manbo City is located between Xianbei, Xiongnu, and Qianghu, so Xu Huang can calmly implement the strategy of using Hu to control Hu. ”
After arranging the strategy, Wei Yan focused on Liu Bao.
Liu Bao is now named Luan Ti Leopard, and later changed his surname to Liu Bao, now only fifteen years old, because the body is Luan Ti Maodun inherited the blood of the Da Shan Yu family, since he was a child, he drank mare's milk and ate horse meat, and often followed his father Yu Fuluo to run around, although he was only fifteen years old, his body was already quite burly, nearly seven feet, enough to compare with the height of the average Han adult man, and he was young and old, and he was sophisticated.
Wei Yan's attention to Liu Bao was not only because of his longevity, his son Liu Yuan was the initiator of the Five Hu Chaohua, but also because he captured the famous talented woman Cai Wenji the year before last.
Cai Wenji is erudite and proficient in music and rhythm, and married Hedong Wei Zhongdao in the early days, Wei Zhongdao died early, and the two had no heirs, so Cai Yan returned to his home. In the second year of Xingping (195), the Central Plains successively had Dong Zhuo, Li Dao and others to make chaos in Guanzhong, the Xiongnu took the opportunity to plunder, and Cai Yan was taken away by the Xiongnu Zuoxian King. It was in this year that Yu Fuluo died, and Liu Bao's uncle Hu Chuquan succeeded Shan Yu and appointed Liu Bao as King Zuoxian, so it was Liu Bao who kidnapped Cai Yan!
