Chapter 119: Difficult Building
Lord Kamiya Wuhuan is in his fifties this year, and although his sideburns have turned a little white after years of wind and frost, his body is still very strong, as strong as a black bear. When he was young, he was a famous warrior on the grassland, and now although he has not fought with people for many years, his prestige is still spread on the grassland, plus he has hundreds of thousands of subordinates, although there are many people who want to move his mind, but the person who really dares to take action has not appeared so far, and even the Xianbei king who dominates the grassland Tan Shihuai is also polite to him, and he does not dare to be self-righteous.
Since Li Ding was blown away by him, Nanlou has been a little uneasy, for so many years, he has a good relationship with the Han people, that bit of bloodline that even he can't tell has helped him a lot, but in the final analysis, it is his sleek and sophisticated, he knows who can be bullied, who can be relied on, when to be tough, when to be humble. Not to mention that the people on the grassland are not good at this kind of ability, even the Han people may not be better than him. Because of these skills, among the more than a dozen Wuhuan adults, he has received the most benefits, and his life is the most nourishing.
However, this also made him more dependent on the Han people, he was accustomed to the fine wine of the Han people, the exquisite clothes of the Han people, and the comfort brought by various objects made by the Han craftsmen, and he was reluctant to give up these again and return to the nomadic life of clothes and skins.
In the face of Tan Shi Huai's solicitation, he hesitated, he also wanted to attack the Han people with Tan Shi Huai, and really turn Shanggu into his own territory, but he was very skeptical that he could do this. Yes, Tanshi Huai has been very powerful and invincible over the years, and the Han people have seen decay over the years, domestic disasters are frequent, and a large number of displaced people enter the upper valley and enter the grassland every year, but Nanlou has been with the Han people for decades, he knows the strength of the Han Kingdom, and he does not believe that the Han Kingdom will really collapse.
The Xianbei people are strong, but the Xianbei people are stronger than the Huns back then, Mao Dun besieged the Han Emperor Liu Bang in Mayi for seven days, and finally forced the Han people to bow their heads and sue for peace, what a majesty this is, but what happened later, where are the once invincible Huns now, they either became the dogs of the Han people, or were killed by the Han people with nowhere to hide.
Nanlou hesitated before making a choice, on the one hand, he did not believe that Tanshihuai would defeat the Han people, but on the other hand, he felt that Tanshihuai seemed to have this possibility, because the giant of the Great Han Kingdom seemed to be getting weaker and weaker, and Tanshihuai set up the royal court only two hundred miles away from the Han border, but the Han people, not only did not send troops to fight, but on the contrary wanted to make peace, and completely lost the domineering spirit of dealing with the Huns back then.
Nan Lou thought about it for a long time, and felt that the current big man might not be the big man before, and from those officials, he saw obvious changes. Hundreds of years ago, when dealing with the Huns, once the border county Taishou encountered the invasion of the Huns, they were all furious, and led the troops to attack, even if they died on the battlefield, the famous flying general was no longer a fight, and now the Han people are soft-spoken, very politely send a lot of money and goods, so that they can get a comfortable life without fighting in exchange for peace.
Such a great Han country, maybe it is nothing to bully, maybe it can be exchanged for greater benefits, not to mention that there have been countless precedents for such a thing, after each rebellion, the Han people not only dare not punish them, but also become more polite.
This made Nanlou a little moved, so he didn't give Li a good face last time, and he couldn't get off the stage in person.
But after Li Ding left, Nanlou had some gains and losses, he was not afraid of what Liu Yu would do to him, if nothing else, Liu Yu would soon send another messenger to bring more gifts and a more polite smile. He was worried about Xia Yu, for this Captain Huwuhuan who killed the Qiang people to a river of blood, he knew that the two years of stinging were not because Xia Yu's knife was not sharp, but because someone tied his hands and feet, once he broke free, he would become more ferocious.
Nanlou didn't know if he had cut the rope that Liu Yu had tied to Xia Yu's hand with one sword.
In the expected time, Liu Yu's envoy did not appear, Nanlou began to feel uneasy, he sent a large number of scouts deep into Shanggu, and even went as far as Yuyang and Guangyang to inquire about the situation, and got the news that made him even more uneasy.
The Han people were mobilizing a large number of troops, and the avenue was full of people and convoys transporting grain, and Ningcheng strengthened the city defenses at night, and countless homeless people were recruited into the city, and preparations for war were in full swing.
I hope this is just to deal with the Xianbei people, the Han people captured Huai Zong, robbed his woman, and broke his two legs, Tan Shi Huai must not be able to swallow this breath, is preparing for revenge, the Han people are so nervous, naturally to guard against Tan Shi Huai, will not provoke the Wuhuan people at this time, let themselves fall into the situation of being attacked on both sides.
Definitely, yes. Nanlou comforted himself like this, but despite this, he was still nervous, and sent people to the valley every day to check if there were any Han envoys.
When he learned that Liu Xiu and the others appeared outside the mountain, he breathed a sigh of relief, but then he became angry again. Who is Liu Xiu? A hairy boy who has not yet reached the age of twenty, has no reputation, and his current identity is just a Sima of the Wuhuan Captain's Mansion, he is not even worthy of lifting shoes for Li Ding, who came last time, Liu Yu sent him, obviously looking down on the Wuhuan people.
But on the other hand, Nanlou was worried, Liu Xiu came from Ningcheng, could it be that he represented the meaning of Xia Yu, the captain of Wuhuan, rather than the meaning of Liu Yu, the assassin of Youzhou? So what does Xia Yu mean, is he going to fight or fighting?
Nanlou stood on the hillside, looking at Liu Xiu and his party who came slowly, and couldn't help but think about it. Ti Tu and the others standing beside him couldn't stop laughing and scolding, and the lightness and presumptuousness revealed between his words made him very unhappy, if he didn't hope that they could suppress the momentum of the Han people like last time, he really wanted to blast them all out.
Liu Xiu wore a brand-new red battle robe and thin armor, riding a fiery red war horse captured from Huai Zong's hands, wearing a fiery red coat, and walking slowly according to the bridle. In front of him were Zhang Fei and Liu Bei, who looked cool, accompanied by Zhang Ming, who was dressed in a long shirt and had an expressionless face, and then behind him were Yang Feng and Lan Lan, who were holding the wind and snow on the left and right. Zhao Yun was dressed in a snow-white daqi and a special bright silver armor, leading twenty knights wearing snow-white daqi and holding halberds on Liu Xiu's sides. From a distance, the team was like a snow dragon winding towards it, and Liu Xiu was a ball of anger on the dragon's head, blazing.
"It's such a beautiful armor, I'll want it later." Titoha laughed, as soon as the laughter came out, Nanlou turned around and glanced at him coldly: "I hope that after a while, you can still talk like this." ”
Titu smiled slightly, and said disapprerovingly: "My lord has an order, and I will naturally obey it." ”
Nan Lou snorted, turned his face and looked at his young son Lou Lu, Lou Lu is only fifteen years old this year, although he inherited Nan Lou's tall figure, but after all, he still looks a little thin, especially under the backdrop of Ti Tu and others, he looks relatively weak and not so strong.
Lou Lu looked intently at the team getting closer and closer at the bottom of the mountain, and it could be seen that he was also very fascinated by the dress of the Han people.
Nanlou was a little displeased, turned around and entered the hall where the guests were entertained, and Tituo and the others saw that his face was wrong, so they quickly put away their smiles and followed closely. Lou Lu looked at it a little reluctantly, trotted all the way into the hall, and sat down beside Ti Tuo. Although he is the son of Nanlou, he has not yet led a subordinate, and among the Wuhuan people who are respected by strength, he can only sit under Tito.
Nanlou's face was even more gloomy, and he didn't say a word until Liu Xiu walked in.
Liu Xiu walked into the hall, stood still in front of the difficult building, stroked the big on his body, waved his hand, Liu Bei stepped forward in small steps, and handed Liu Yu's book. Nan Lou hooked his finger and motioned for Lou Lu to take it, Lou Lu was stunned for a moment, quickly got up and took it, put his hands into Nan Lou's hands, turned around and was about to return to his seat, but was stopped by Nan Lou with his eyes.
"It turned out to be Liu Yuanjun's envoy, I thought it was Xia Yu's envoy." Nan Lou casually threw aside the book he had read a long time ago, raised his head, and looked at Liu Xiu with some arrogance. Since he was still a messenger sent by Liu Yu, there was no need for him to worry.
Liu Xiu coughed lightly: "My lord is wrong, I am the messenger of Lord Lieutenant, and this letter was just brought by the way." It was supposed to be handed over to the adult by Li Dingjun, but he left in a hurry and forgot to give it to you. ”
Nan Lou stared coldly at the young man in front of him, and suddenly felt a little uneasy, he felt that this young envoy was different from the envoys he had contacted before, and there was an indescribable taste.
Bloodthirsty taste!
