Chapter 135: Riots
Days passed.
Liu Xie was dealing with the folds in the palace, and Leng Shouguang walked in, holding a small letter in his hand.
"Your Majesty, the flying book from Lord Yu."
"Open your mind for me." Liu Xie's cinnabar pen paused for a moment and opened his mouth to signal.
Yu Huatian was ordered by him to secretly follow Taiping Dao and Liu Bei and his party, trying to investigate the secrets behind Taiping Dao.
Unexpectedly, the headquarters of Taiping Road was actually in Jingzhou, which went south, it was thousands of miles, and Yuhuatian could not be separated, so he had to follow along the way, and constantly reported his whereabouts to the emperor from time to time.
This is the third letter in recent days, and Yuhuatian is cautious and cautious, as long as there are new discoveries, no matter how big or small, they will be reported one by one.
"Slave Yuhuatian, knock on the emperor!"
Leng Shouguang took out the letter from the letterbox, spread it out and read, "Liu Bei has not moved in recent days except for the person who was introduced by Taiping Road a few days ago, and he suddenly went out yesterday, except for carrying Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, there was no other entourage, and he traveled lightly and went to the Longzhong area, I don't know what to do." ”
"Because the place to go is too quiet, in order to avoid startling the snake, the slave had to give up tracking and report the matter."
"Your Majesty, I'm done." After reading the letter, Leng Shouguang looked at Liu Xie and signaled softly.
"Longzhong?" The cinnabar pen in Liu Xie's hand hung in the air, and he frowned secretly.
If the memory is correct, the demonic existence in the Three Kingdoms, Zhuge Wolong, should be secluded in the Longzhong area.
Liu Bei is going to visit the thatched house three times and invite Zhuge Liang?
But according to the memories of his previous life, Liu Bei learned that Zhuge Liang's name was because of Mr. Shuijing's guidance. But since Liu Bei went to Jingzhou, every move has been reported by Yuhuatian, and there is no mention of seeing Mr. Shuijing.
The timeline and plot development of this world must have changed dramatically from the Three Kingdoms in the previous life, because of the existence of Liu Xie, many things are indeed changing imperceptibly.
But Zhuge Liang lived in seclusion in the Longzhong area, but he was not affected much by the appearance of Liu Xie, and it stands to reason that there should be no accidents on this line.
After thinking about it, a spiritual light suddenly flashed in Liu Xie's mind, Taiping Dao!
It was only because Liu Bei came into contact with Taiping Dao, and it was because of Taiping Dao that he went to Jingzhou.
Therefore, all these variables are related to Taiping Road.
Even visited Zhuge Liang, it was because of Taiping Dao's guidance to Liu Bei, and even between Zhuge Liang and Taiping Dao, maybe there was still some relationship.
The more Liu Xie thought about it, the more he felt that this assumption was extremely likely.
If it weren't for the need to sit in Xudu, Liu Xie would like to go to Jingzhou alone and meet Zhuge Liang for a while to see what the hell this Taiping Dao is!
"Give Yu Huatian a letter back, and ask him to get close to Liu Bei no matter what, and find out his every move in Longzhong!"
Liu Xie's face was majestic, and he gestured to Leng Shouguang.
"Yes, the minion will do it." Leng Shouguang bowed down and took the order.
He was about to turn around and go out, but suddenly stopped.
"Anything else?" Liu Xie noticed his actions and asked curiously.
"By the way, Your Majesty, yesterday the spies came to report, saying that the Mobei Xiongnu tribe seems to have abnormal behavior, and there are people and horses of the Northern Huns, looking far away in the Hexi area, it seems to have a plan."
Yuhuatian is not in Xudu, and the internal and external affairs of the West Factory are handled by Leng Shouguang, so the information of the West Factory is reported to Leng Shouguang, and then he submits it to Liu Xie according to the urgency of the incident.
"Huns?" Liu Xie frowned.
The world has not yet been recovered, and the north has only just stabilized, so why did the Xiongnu suddenly become restless again.
Since the Xiongnu tribe split into the north and south Xiongnu, the southern Xiongnu has been assimilated by the Han Dynasty, and the Northern Xiongnu are in a hostile relationship, and they have also joined hands with the Han Dynasty to defeat the Northern Xiongnu, and the Northern Xiongnu were once expelled to the Mobei Plateau, and did not dare to go south.
Although there were some turmoil in the Han Dynasty during this period, due to the military force of the Northern Xiongnu under the Han Dynasty, and the Southern Xiongnu as a buffer zone in the middle, there has been no conflict for nearly a hundred years.
If it weren't for the chaos in the world and the decline of national strength in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, it would have been good for the Han Dynasty not to attack the Northern Xiongnu, how could it be the turn of the Northern Xiongnu to move in the north.
"According to the report of the northern garrison, the suspected Northern Xiongnu Huyan King appeared in the Altai Mountains, after the Southern Xiongnu learned the news, they panicked overnight, and almost had internal chaos first, but fortunately Liangzhou had General Li Guang stationed in the town, so there was no major civil strife."
Liu Xie didn't know much about the Xiongnu tribe, and after crossing over, he didn't care about dealing with the Xiongnu, and asked with some curiosity: "Is the Southern Xiongnu inferior to the Northern Xiongnu?" Why did you see the traces of the Northern Xiongnu Huyan King and have civil strife? ”
"Since the Southern Xiongnu attached themselves to our Han Dynasty, whether it is military or food, they have gained great abundance, the war horses raised are better than those of the Northern Xiongnu, and the combat ability of the generals and soldiers is also stronger than that of the Northern Xiongnu."
Leng Shouguang is a person of this era, and he has heard of the situation of the Xiongnu, coupled with the establishment of the West Factory, the intelligence of all parts of the world is under his ears and eyes, and he naturally knows more about some trivial details than Liu Xie.
"But with the succession of the new generation of Huyan kings of the Northern Xiongnu, the situation seems to have turned."
Leng Shouguang said, his brows furrowed slightly, as if he was a little puzzled, "I don't know what means the new Huyan King of the Northern Xiongnu used, the cattle and sheep and war horses of the Northern Xiongnu suddenly increased, relying on the trade with the cattle and sheep of the surrounding tribes, the Northern Xiongnu became rich all of a sudden, and the combat effectiveness of the soldiers was also greatly improved." ”
"In some conflicts with the Southern Xiongnu in recent years, the Northern Xiongnu won a complete victory, and plundered a lot of property and cloth women from the Southern Xiongnu, which led to the collapse of the Southern Xiongnu, and the strength was thrown off by the Northern Xiongnu."
Liu Xie heard this and understood, the Southern Xiongnu just saw that the Northern Xiongnu was strong, and there were some people inside who wanted to defect and defect to the Northern Xiongnu, trying to reunify with the Northern Xiongnu.
This led to the civil strife of the Southern Xiongnu.
He also knew that what Leng Shouguang said just now was actually saving face for him.
The reason why the Southern Xiongnu were so easily surpassed by the Northern Xiongnu was not only the efforts of the Northern Xiongnu themselves, but also related to the decline of the Han Dynasty, the backer of the Southern Xiongnu.
In the past, the Southern Xiongnu relied on the support of the Han Dynasty to crush the Northern Xiongnu with their combat power.
But now, if it weren't for its own crossing, the Han Dynasty would have become an empty shell, and the Southern Xiongnu could only be forced to be self-reliant, but because of the heavy dependence, they lost their backers for a while, and they would be defeated by the Northern Xiongnu.
Leng Shouguang was hindered by his identity as the son of heaven of the Han Dynasty, so he didn't dare to say these words.
This guy has grown a lot recently.
Liu Xie smiled secretly, like a mirror in his heart.
