After LΓΌ Bu led his army back to Lishi, there was no more fighting in the state, and it seemed to be calm on the surface, but there were actually undercurrents surging around.
The Qianghu people in Shangjun suffered a big loss because of their greed for small gains, and after Fu Shi was sacked by the troops led by Gao Shun, they hurriedly shrank their troops and horses, intending to wait for an opportunity to retaliate against the Tiance army. At this moment, the news of Admiral Tiance's defeat of the Xianbei people in Mayi reached Shangjun, and they were frightened by Lu Bu's record of 2,000 victories and 20,000 victories.
When Lu Bu was not in Lishi, Gao Shun who stayed behind was able to beat the Qianghu people all over the ground to find teeth, and now Lu Bu returned with a great victory, if he led a large army to cross the Yellow River west to attack Shangjun, how could the Qianghu people resist?
The Qianghu people, who originally wanted to fight the Tiance army again, were so emboldened that they abandoned Zhenlin, Baitu, Yuanyin and Yuanyang, and shrunk the tribesmen and horses westward and south to the areas of Qiuzi, Fushi and Haoyan, relying on the land around Haoyanze and Haoyanshui to continue their pastoral life.
More than 300 miles west from Luyanze, it is the Qianghu people dense Beidi County, if the Tiance army marches westward, the Qianghu people gathered around Luyan can get reinforcements from the Qianghu people in the north, and in the case of not being able to fight, they can quickly escape back to Beidi County with their men and horses.
When the Qianghu people shrank their defenses to the west and south in fear, the Southern Xiongnu tribes entrenched in their north were also shocked by the news they received. The first news they received was that the Tiance army in Hedong defeated the Fuluo tribe and could not return to Meijishan Yuting, and then the astonishing news of the Tiance army's defeat of the Xianbei people came from the east, and not long after, the Qianghu people were sacked by the Tiance army from the south.
Lao Shan Yu of the Southern Xiongnu hurriedly summoned the leaders of the big tribes such as the left and right Xian kings, the left and right valley Li kings, and other big tribes to discuss the matter, hoping that everyone would stop fighting and work together to deal with the huge threat of the Tiance army.
Yu Fuluo's younger brother Hu Chuquan was the first to jump up and speak, he asked all tribes to send troops together, and then borrowed the road to Shangjun from the Qianghu people, invaded Hedong, rescued Yu Fuluo, and then elected Yu Fuluo as the Southern Xiongnu Shan Yu, in the future, because of Fu Luo, he unified the command of everyone to fight against the threat of the Tiance army.
King Zuo Xian was selfish, he disagreed with Hu Chuquan's opinion, and stood up against it, saying: "Yu Fuluo is just a straw bale, otherwise how could he be cut off by the Tiance army, and now he is trapped in Hedong, living with a rebel leader like Guo Da?" Counting on a leader like him who has no ability to lead the whole clan, there is no tomorrow for the Southern Huns! β
King Liking of Yougu followed and said: "If we pour the strength of the whole clan to attack Hedong, the Xianbei people in the north just take advantage of the weakness, and the Qianghu people in the west and the Tiance army in the east will not let go of such a good opportunity. β
The Right Sage King and the Left Valley Liwang did not speak, but they did not clearly express their support for Hu Chuquan, which was already an attitude in itself.
Lao Shan Yu saw that the various tribes still had their own thoughts, so he had no choice but to propose: "The strength of the Tiance Army is very strong, judging from the various news we have received, Lu Bu has fought almost all the opponents he can fight since he left Luoyang, and he has not tasted defeat. If we send troops to meet Yu Fuluo at this time, it will be equivalent to a complete turn of face with Lu Bu, but I am afraid that Yu Fuluo will not be able to take it back, and Lu Bu will lead the army to attack Yu Court. β
Hu Chuquan saw that Lao Shan Yu was not helping him to talk to his brother, and his face turned green in a hurry, and he asked loudly: "Do you just watch my brother wandering in the east of the river?" Don't forget, it is precisely because my father was rebelled and killed by his own people that it led to the current infighting of our Southern Xiongnu! β
Lao Shan Yu comforted Hu Chuquan and said, "Don't worry, listen to what I have to say!" Although the tribe led by Yu Fuluo fought a battle with the Tiance Army, he was only the leader of the tribe at that time, and he could not represent the entire clan of our Southern Xiongnu. What I mean is to send someone to Lishi with a gift to get in touch with the Tiance Army and ask Lu Bu what he wants. β
King Zuoxian, who had never spoken, immediately echoed and said, "Yes! We not only have to send people to Lishi to get in touch with the Tiance Army, but also privately send people to get in touch with both the Xianbei and Qianghu people, tell them how powerful the Tiance Army is, and agree with each other not to attack each other, so as not to be broken by the Tiance Army! β
King Liwang of Yougu was the first to say: "Leave the task of liaising with the Tiance Army to me, I happen to know a Han merchant who came from the south, and he is a relative of the Han officials in the Tiance Military Mansion and can talk." β
"Prepare a little more goods and give them to that Han merchant, let him bribe the Han official, and let this Han official say more good things for us!" King Zuo Gu made a suggestion.
"The task of liaising with the Xianbei people is the responsibility of my tribe. I will send the most eloquent men to cross the Yellow River, spread the threat of the Tiance Army, and let the Xianbei people not set their eyes on us in the future!" King Zuo Xian volunteered.
"I'll be in charge of the contact with the Qianghu people! My tribe usually deals with the Qianghu people the most, and knowing the temper and habits of these guys, they should also be looking forward to joining forces with us to deal with the Han army! "King Youxian also took the initiative to take on a task.
When the Southern Xiongnu were discussing how to deal with the strong rising Tiance Army, the Xianbei tribe who withdrew from Mayi to the northern grassland was not idle.
The two Xianbei tribes whose leaders were killed by Lu Bu are now in chaos, and the other two Wanfu who followed Huo Chiluo and Koons south because they escaped in time, so the loss of strength was slight, and they tacitly chose a target to attack, wanting to use various means to eat the clansmen left behind by Huo Chiluo and Koons.
The news that the four tribes were eating dogs under the Yin Mountain reached the ears of the Xianbei leader and Lian, and Lian was very angry about this, although his ability and ability could not be compared with his father Tanshi Huai, but he also knew that the most important thing at this time was not to fight in the nest, but to find a way to deal with the Tiance army that suddenly appeared in the south.
He Lian sent his powerful troops to rush to the foot of Yin Mountain north of Yunzhong County with a large group of men and horses, and let Kuitou be responsible for mediating the four tribes, not allowing them to continue to fight and fight.
Kuitou has a younger brother named Budugen, although he is only twenty years old, but his mind is very smart, he suggested to Kuitou to directly integrate these four tribes and his own tribe, and in the future, Kuitou will unify the command and dispatch, so that he can get rid of the threat of the big leader and the company, and become the second largest tribe in the small Xianbei after the Helian tribe.
The leader was tempted by his brother's proposal, but he knew that this was easier said than done, so he asked Budugen what he could do to get the other four tribes to submit, and Budugen came up with a very clever idea for him.
