Chapter 64: Sorrow Urges the Middle

The Bank of China said that his face was full of displeasure, and he kept looking at Liu Che who looked like a fool and was silent for a long time.

After a long time, Liu Che returned to normal, and said with a smile: "In this way, the lonely king really has to thank you!" Do you remember the covenant I made with Gaozu and Mao Dun Shan Yu, 'North of the Great Wall, the country of the bow, Cheng Ming Shan Yu; Within the Great Wall, the room of the crown belt, I also make it'? What do you think? ”

The Bank of China said disdainfully: "Such an alliance under the city is a good thing for my Huns; For you, the Han Kingdom, it can be called a national shame. ”

Liu Che shook his head and sighed with a look of emotion: "It only took me seven years to go from a cloth cloth to this great man, all kinds of calculations, how can you guess?" The country of the bow, the room of the crown belt, the deep layout, the big trap, pity you Huns and don't know it, sad and pitiful! ”

Seeing that the Bank of China opened his mouth to refute, Liu Che waved his hand to stop it, and continued: "At the end of the Qin Dynasty, the Huns claimed that they were descendants of the Xia Dynasty, and at the time of the war in the Central Plains, the princes had no objection to this, so that they had the status of entering the Central Plains. If the Xiongnu had made some changes to the Central Plains model in terms of etiquette at that time, and reduced the barbarian elements to the greatest extent, those talented but unvalued people in the Central Plains would have gone to serve and compete with our Han Dynasty. The dispute over Yixia is not rooted in blood, but in Taoism!

When I think that when the envoys sent to the Xiongnu by the Gaozu Dynasty found that the Huns admired the food and clothes of the Han land, and the etiquette of the Han people was also very fashionable, the monarchs and ministers of our Han Dynasty would definitely remember the history of the Qin State from Yi to China in the previous dynasty, and thus become more and more thorny in the back. In the battle of Baishan Mountain, although Gaozu was defeated, he took the opportunity to put a trap on the Huns, and put the barbarian hat of the "country of the bow" on the head of the Huns, and forever lost the title of "the room of the crown belt"! ”

When the Bank of China heard this, his face turned pale, but he sneered: "These are just the prince's self-speculation, intending to whitewash the failure of your ancestors, so self-deception, it is really ridiculous." ”

Liu Che didn't think about it, and continued: "Then let's not talk about Gaozu, let's talk about my grandfather Emperor Wen." It is rumored that after you defected to the Xiongnu, Emperor Wen sent an envoy to the Xiongnu to ridicule the Xiongnu customs for not being polite, and the implication was that the Xiongnu were barbaric. And you refuted him to his face, and after arguing with him, he won a great victory, so that his frivolity not only did not anger the Xiongnu Shan Yu on the spot, but caused Shan Yu to fully support you to strictly prohibit the manners and etiquette of the Huns. Do you remember that? ”

The Bank of China nodded gloomily, this Han-Hun debate of etiquette and righteousness established his position in the Xiongnu, he has been proud of it for decades, and now he has to see what the sharp-tongued prince of the Han State will say.

Liu Che picked up the teacup, played with it in his hand for a while, and said with a joke on his face: "What is the purpose of Emperor Wen sending envoys and relatives?" It was to stabilize the Xiongnu and prevent them from invading the border. After making peace, he should not have done anything to anger the Huns. When you defected, it was not long after you made peace, but Emperor Wen strangely sent a light envoy to make fun of the customs of the Huns in the Xiongnu. Not only that, but the envoy will be speechless by a eunuch like you, who has never been educated, which shows that this envoy is an unstable and inarticulate person.

It is necessary to know that the Central Plains is rich in debaters, and after the founding of the Han Dynasty, there have been top debaters such as Liu Jing and Lu Jia. It is hard to imagine that when Emperor Wen sent an envoy to the Xiongnu, he would not find a person with sharp words. Even if you can't find it, it shouldn't be difficult to find a stable person, right? Finding a frivolous person to take the risk of playing with the Huns is really a big joke in the world. ”

The Bank of China said that his face had changed greatly, but it was irrefutable, Liu Che's inference was not wrong, the performance of the envoy back then was indeed negligent but negligent, and now that I think about it, there is indeed something strange. The clothes on his back were instantly soaked in cold sweat, and he seemed to have guessed the meaning of Liu Che's words.

Seeing this, Liu Che saw that he had caught a clue, and then continued to strike: "In fact, after the siege of Baideng, the Xiongnu still have the will and premise to peep into the Central Plains, as long as they become vulgar, they can be completed." In the Wen Dynasty, the Xiongnu had shown signs of vulgarity. If the Xiongnu become vulgar, then the situation between Han and Hungary will only evolve in the direction of getting worse and worse for our Han Dynasty. At that time, Emperor Wen could not extinguish this sign with the strength of the Han Dynasty, first, the strength was insufficient, and the Han Dynasty had not yet recovered from the trauma of the battle of hegemony at the end of Qin; The second is that a new problem within the Han Dynasty needs to be solved, that is, the feudal kings are gradually getting bigger, and Emperor Wen cannot solve the princes and kings before it is determined that the Xiongnu have no will to replace the Han.

At that time, the Han could only hope that the Xiongnu themselves would extinguish the signs of degeneration and become a country that only had the ability to harm the Han and had no will to overthrow, so as to buy time for itself, recuperate and solve internal problems. It is precisely because of your defection that the Xiongnu have become a country that can be conservative and vulgar, and it is purely a failure of the times. It was you who prevented the possibility of the Xiongnu from evolving into the Central Plains, and made the Xiongnu a regime that did not have any chance to reform the system, so that the Xiongnu lost the premise of fighting for hegemony in the Central Plains, and only had the will to plunder China and failed to occupy the ambitious plan. This phenomenon was extremely important and timely for the Han Dynasty at that time.

Therefore, the Lone King has to thank you for the ancestors today! It is you who have made the Xiongnu completely become a country that rejects the Central Plains civilization and does not occupy the Han realm! ……”

Burst! The Bank of China said that his complexion changed several times, his throat kept surging, and his mouth was sweet, and he actually spurted out a mouthful of dark red blood, spraying on the smooth white marble ground of the Fish Pavilion, like plum blossoms, strange and eye-catching. Liu Che hurriedly turned sideways to avoid it, fleeting pleasure flashed on his face, and he kept urging in his mouth: "Why is the envoy like this, can't he bear the gratitude of the lonely king?" It's the lonely king Meng Lang, I'm afraid it will cost you your life. Li Fu, hurry up and let the envoys go back, and take care of them! ”

Seeing that Li Fu recruited a few chamberlains and carried away the Bank of China with a face like gold paper, Liu Che immediately put on a squirrel, and walked towards Changle Palace in a leisurely manner.

It was night, in the imperial study of Weiyang Palace.

Emperor Jing quietly listened to Liu Che's story of humiliation, and couldn't help laughing: "I often hear that the ancients had words to kill people, and I don't want you, a stinky boy, to have such skills." After the Bank of China said that it was back to the 'Barbarian Mansion', it was still angry, and although it was said that there was no obstacle to life, it was inevitable that it would be closed for a period of time to recuperate. ”

Liu Che nodded: "In this way, he won't have the energy to play tricks." It's just that I don't know what he originally planned to do this time, so I might as well take some precautions in the future. ”

Emperor Jing's sword eyebrows were raised, and his cold gaze seemed to condense into a sharp sword, pointing to the southeast and saying, "What else can there be new?" No matter who it is, as long as it does not follow the right path, it must all be disposed of before the troops are dispatched next year! ”

Liu Che was overjoyed when he heard this, knowing that the emperor's father had fully accepted his advice last night.

Since Mao Dunshan took advantage of the chaos at the end of the Qin Dynasty and went south to seize the land of Henan (not today's Henan Province, referring to the Hetao region), the Central Plains region that lost the barrier of the Great Wall could only let the Xiongnu iron cavalry gallop across the country. As long as the Han can recapture Shuofang, Xihe and Yunzhong, they can regain control of the Great Wall of the Qin Dynasty, and use this as a barrier to greatly reduce the power of the Xiongnu iron cavalry and keep the enemy out of the Great Wall. In this way, the Han can be given enough strategic space to completely solve domestic problems, and free up troops to clean up Xiqiang first.

Emperor Jing then sighed slightly: "It's just that what the emperor said to the Bank of China today is a bit too much. ”

Liu Che was stunned for a moment, as if he had thought of something, and an unbelievable expression appeared on his face: "Erchen was just guessing and squeezing him with random words, is it ......?"

Emperor Jing nodded helplessly, and said with a wry smile: "Yes, the emperor hit by mistake, and he was really right." At the beginning of the founding of the Han Dynasty, the virtuous minister Xiao He set a plan to prevent the Xiongnu from entering China, which was only passed down by the emperor by word of mouth, and it has been more than 50 years. Originally, a hundred years ago, I also had to explain to you, but now there is no need for this. Not only have you noticed, but you have also let the BOC know that I really don't know whether to be happy or sad. ”

Liu Che's face was full of black lines, and he really had to speculate on the emperors of the early Han Dynasty with the greatest malice in order to discover the truth of history. After all, the ** qi in Gaozu Liu Bang's bloodline is too domineering, and it has been inherited. The reason why the emperor of the early Han Dynasty was only Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was more hot-blooded and impulsive, but he was not as insidious and cunning as his ancestors, so his political skills were far inferior to those of his ancestors and fathers, so he could only be hard.

Liu Che secretly scolded himself, but comforted Emperor Jing confidently and said: "Father, there is no need to worry too much, after sending troops to recapture Henan next year, if the time comes, not only will the Xiongnu not be able to invade our Central Plains again, I'm afraid they won't even be able to stay in the prairie!" ”

Emperor Jing frowned and looked north, and said quietly: "I have sent your plan to Zhidu with a fast horse, I hope he can guard Yanmen......
