Chapter 265: The Alliance

On June 11, the third year of Zhongping, that is, in June 186, Qin Feng, the former general of the Han Dynasty and the generalissimo of the Xiongnu, met the Xiongnu tribes at the foot of the famous Wolf Juxu Mountain.

According to statistics, at that time, two-thirds of the tribal leaders arrived at the Wolf Juxu Mountain. They were shocked by Qin Feng's prestige, exclaimed the history of Huo Quai's illness back then, and came to Wolf Juxu Mountain, hoping to be recruited by the imperial court.

Qin Feng built a platform at the foot of the Wolf Juxu Mountain, and at 10 o'clock in the morning on this day, the Xiongnu tribes were allied.

On both sides of the Huimeng platform, the flag is displayed. In the sound of the earth-shattering horn, the leaders of more than 100 tribes entered in a procession, came to the stage of the alliance and lined up left and right, and took their seats in front of their respective tribal flags.

In a few moments, Qin, Yuan, Cao, and Liu appeared, led by Qin Feng, and ascended to the Huimeng platform in turn.

Qin Feng sat on the handsome seat in the middle, accompanied by Yuan Shao and Cao Cao on the left and right, and Liu Bei was at the bottom of the seat.

When the four of them sat down, the leaders of the Xiongnu tribes attending the meeting stood up collectively and bowed: "Our tribal vassals, see the marshal of the kingdom and the generals. ”

For a time, the momentum was immeasurable.

The first time Cao Yuan Liu saw such an alliance, his sense of superiority increased greatly for a while, Cao Cao's black face glowed in excitement, Yuan Shao's big head was bigger in his excitement, and Liu Bei was so excited that his big ears kept fanning.

And Qin Feng was very calm, after all, for him, this kind of scene was too pediatric.

"Get up." Qin Feng raised his hand and said.

"Xie Dashuai......." The chiefs of the tribes arose and took their seats. Among them, many of them saw Qin Feng for the first time, and they couldn't help but look up and down, saying in their hearts that it was this Qin general with golden helmets and golden armor who defeated the Xiongnu king Qiangqu. Sure enough, his bearing is extraordinary, and his prestige is impressive, and he can't let Huo Qubing do much compared to Huo Qu's illness back then.

Qin Feng made a short and powerful speech, "Qiangqu is rebellious and rebellious. The court is benevolent and virtuous, and you are coerced by it. All are among the pardons. However, the rebel Qiangqu is unforgivable. You are gathered here today to forgive your sins and to elect a new tribal alliance and its head. All in one. Together with the imperial army, he sent troops to destroy the Qiangqu. ”

After Qin Feng finished speaking, he looked at the arriving patriarchs and waited for their answers.

The chiefs of the tribes began to talk about it.

Qin Feng looked at it and talked about it. He looked at Saisan, who was sitting at the head of the audience.

Saisang hurriedly signaled to Qin Feng, he had already communicated with the patriarchs of the tribes before, and there would definitely be a good result.

These tribal leaders, since they were able to come here, all had the heart to submit to the imperial court. They got Saisan's reminder again, this time, the court was going to exterminate Qiangqu. If the tribes participated in the crusade against the Qiangqu, they would gain a large population and fertile pastoral land after victory. If they did not participate, the incident of the Han Dynasty exterminating the Huns would be repeated, which was not in the interests of the tribes.

Then. Saisang got up and said: "Since Qiangqu became the king of the Xiongnu, he didn't think about leading the Xiongnu to multiply and seek development. But for his own selfishness, he rebelled and rebelled as much as he could, putting my Huns and the extermination of the clan. Today, the court is furious and wants to clear my Huns, thanks to the benevolence of General Qin, he went to the court, and I have the opportunity to recruit peace. ”

"Qiangqu is not only the enemy of the imperial court, but also the black sheep of my Xiongnu. For the future of my Huns. I, Saisang, swear here to follow General Qin and jointly send troops to destroy Qiangqu. ”

The tribal chiefs were again talking.

The situation is now clear. Qiangqu, who was defeated and returned to the grassland royal court, was greatly damaged. And the imperial court made it clear that this time it was endless, the Han Dynasty came to attack with the strength of the whole country, and there were famous generals like Qin Feng to lead the army. Not to mention the Qiangqu, even if the Huns are all combined, there is no chance at all.

Now the only way for the Xiongnu tribes to survive is to follow the official army to crusade against the Qiangqu. Moreover. After winning, there are also great benefits.

The tribal chiefs were very interested in dividing the population and the grasslands equally after the Qiang Canal was eliminated.

Therefore, when Saisang was the first to set an example, the tribes expressed their support for the imperial court to conquer the rebellion and eliminate the Qiangqu and the black tribes that followed him.

Qin Feng showed joy.

Cao Yuan and Liu were overjoyed, in fact, they knew that the imperial court was already at the end of the crossbow, what was there to pour the power of the country, what was there to die endlessly, all of them were Qin Feng scaring people. If Qiangqu integrated the Xiongnu tribes, it would be difficult for them to wipe him out on the steppe.

Cao Cao's face was dark and shiny, and he said, "Thanks to Zijin's strategy of differentiation and co-optation, it has worked. ”

Yuan Shaotou was overjoyed, "Now that we have the support of most of the Xiongnu tribes, it will be much easier to eliminate the Qiangqu." ”

Vile. Liu Bei pricked up his long ears and said secretly.

At this time, Qin Feng got up. Cao Yuan Liu hurriedly got up, and the patriarchs of the tribes also hurriedly got up.

Qin Feng came to the front of the stage, and when the red cloak fluttered in the wind, he said: "All tribes are loyal to the court, and I am very relieved. However, the snake cannot be headless, so it is better to form a new tribal alliance and elect a leader today. He can also lead the tribes against the rebellious Qiangqu and the pseudo-tribal alliance that depends on him. ”

Everyone agreed for a while, "What the marshal said is very true." ”

So, Qin Feng said: "Ben Shuai, I recommend Saisang, the patriarch of the Horqin tribe, as a candidate for the new leader of the alliance tribe. You can also recommend candidates, or you can nominate yourself. He paused, then added, "Are there any better candidates?" ”

The patriarchs of the various tribes discussed for a while, and it was clear that Qin Feng supported Saisang. And Saisan, sure enough, was the most prestigious of the tribal chiefs who attended the meeting.

Qin Feng defeated the Qiangqu, shocked the Huns, and the small tribes dared to fight. And the patriarch of the big tribe, although he had some thoughts, but after thinking about it, he felt that their power was far from that of Saisan, who was supported by Qin Feng.

Therefore, all the tribes agreed, and the great gift saw Saisang, and Qi said: "I wish to serve the patriarch of Saisang as the king of the Huns, and follow the king of the clan from now on, and there is no second heart." ”

Saisang was overjoyed, and he immediately said: "From now on, my Xiongnu will do my duty as a vassal, under the orders of General Qin, and by the orders of the imperial court. ”

So, under the leadership of Saisang, the patriarchs of all tribes visited Qin Feng together to show their loyalty. And Saisang's putting Qin Feng in front of the imperial court was hinting to Qin Feng that in the days to come, he would be on Qin Feng's side.

Qin Feng was very pleased and supported Saisang as the patriarch, which made a good start for his future national unity. He hurriedly asked everyone to get up, and said to Saisang: "When the Qiangqu is eliminated, the marshal will go to the court and ask for the official canonization of you as the king of the Huns." ”

Seysan rejoiced.

So far, everything has gone smoothly for the alliance. Qin Feng ordered Saisang to immediately make overall arrangements for all departments to send troops and food, and when the soldiers and horses of all departments gathered together, it was the time to attack the Qiangqu royal court.

Cao, Yuan, and Liu never thought about Qin Feng's special recommendation of Saisang as the king of the Huns. Because in their hearts, they just regarded them as courtiers of the court. If they thought about it as a separatist prince, they would definitely find that Qin Feng was cultivating a power close to him in the grassland and spreading his influence in the grassland.

In all dynasties, controlling the grassland peoples has been a difficult task, and whoever controls it well will have a prosperous dynasty. Whoever does not control well will have a dynasty that will decline.

On this day, Qin Feng, the former general of the Han Dynasty, allied with the Xiongnu tribes, rebuilt the tribal alliance, and elected a new Xiongnu king.

The news, like wings, spread across the grasslands.

And soon spread to the royal court of Qiangqu.

The Qiangqu Royal Court is located in the north of the Wolf Juxu Mountain, 100 kilometers, that is, the Urad Middle Banner in the northeast of Bayannur City, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. It is located at 107 degrees east longitude and 41 degrees north latitude, and is bordered by Mongolia in the north.

When many tribes went to the Wolf Juxu Mountain to join the alliance, there were also many tribal patriarchs who were loyal to Qiangqu and came to the royal court.

These tribal patriarchs sent troops and food to help Qiangqu invade the Central Plains, but they didn't expect it to be a big defeat. When the imperial army under the command of Qin Feng came to the grassland, they panicked. Hearing that Qin Feng was stationed in Wolf Juxu Mountain, these tribal patriarchs recalled the history of "sealing the wolf Juxu", and they were even more shocked.

They came to the royal court and asked Qiangqu if he would accept Zhao'an.

After the defeat of Qiangqu, on the one hand, he hated and was angry, and on the other hand, he planned to start all over again. He said to the tribal patriarchs who came, "Wait for the news, the court will recruit peace, and we will accept it." ”

The tribal chiefs breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this.

Who knew that on this day, the news of the imperial court came: ********, a new tribal alliance had been produced, and a new Xiongnu king had been elected. The Huns, under the leadership of the new Hun king, will work with the official army to eliminate the black sheep of the Huns, Qiangqu.

When the news came, although there were hundreds of people in the palace hall of Qiangqu, there were no voices. However, after a short silence, the pot exploded.

The eldest prince Yu Fuluo exclaimed: "The imperial court wants to drive us all out? ”

The second prince called out to the chef and said, "How is this good? ”

The patriarchs of the tribes who were close to Qiangqu were shocked and discussed.

"The big thing is not good, the court has no intention of letting go of Qiangqu."

"If we follow him, we will surely die."

"I heard that except for Qiangqu, everyone else can be pardoned."

"Let's get out of here quickly and take the tribe to submit to the new Hun king."

At this life-and-death juncture, the patriarchs of each tribe began to think about their own tribes. They felt that they were no match for the imperial court and the new tribal alliance at all, and faintly had the intention of leaving Qiangqu.

After a while, there were already individual patriarchs who began to sneak away.

Qiang Qu's face was extremely ugly, he found the patriarch who was about to slip away, and hurriedly signaled to his son. I saw Fu Luo and Hu Chuquan, so he led the guards, grabbed the patriarchs who wanted to escape, and controlled all the patriarchs, and added swords and axes.

The tribal chiefs panicked.

Qiang Qu was already frightened, but he forced himself to calm down and think. He found that even if he controlled these chiefs, it would be difficult to continue to mobilize the soldiers and horses of their tribe. After losing the support of these patriarchs, there were only more than 3,000 soldiers and horses left in his hands who could be used by his tribe, and they were not Qin Feng's opponents at all.

Qiang Qu stood up with a gloomy face, but waved his hand and said, "Let go of the patriarchs." ”

When the tribal patriarchs were shocked, Qiang Qu stepped down from the throne, he came to the side of the patriarchs, looked at them one by one, and said earnestly: "Have you thought about it? If this king is killed, and Saisan becomes the king of the Huns, your tribe will surely be annexed by him. As leaders, you will be put to death, and you will be put to death forever!
