Chapter 0071: Qin Mu
Tuoba Shiyigan is a vigorous and resolute person, and he does what he says.
It just so happened that the country had just moved the capital to Shengle Palace, and there were still very few houses and palaces in the Central Plains, so the people of Tuoba Xianbei were willing to leave these things, and then brought the cattle, sheep, horses and other livestock that they relied on for their livelihood, as well as a large number of tents, and fled directly to the north.
Therefore, when Shi Min rushed to Shengle Palace with more than 60,000 Zhao troops, the Xianbei people who originally lived here had long since disappeared.
"Da Da Da! ......" the sound of horses' hooves struck on the crude and dirty green bricks.
Shi Min held a double-edged spear in his right hand as always, held the reins in his left hand, and under his crotch was his mount, the red horse Zhulong, standing there with his head held high, heroic.
Behind him, there was a big silk with the words "Conquer the Northern Metropolitan Governor Stone" written on it, followed by a long queue.
Li Nong next to him sighed and said, "It seems that Tuoba Shiyiqian is really a guy who understands current affairs. Under the pressure of our army, they Xianbei people obviously still have the power to resist, but he chose to escape! β
Li Nong's sigh didn't know whether he was annoyed that he couldn't expand the results of the battle, or he was relieved that he could avoid fighting the main force of the Xianbei people again.
But none of this is a problem.
After all, Shi Hu handed over to Shi Min, and the task of his army to conquer the north was to smash the Shengle of the Daiguo and teach the Xianbei people a lesson, and now their task has been perfectly completed!
It's time for the class teacher to return to the court!
"The Xianbei people were originally Hu people. Isn't the habit of the Hu people to live in pursuit of water and grass? If you beat it, you will fight, and if you can't beat it, you will run, isn't this the temperament of these Hu people? Shi Min sneered and said.
Looking at the devastation in front of him, Li Nong couldn't help but sigh happily: "I didn't expect that in just two years, Xianbei people could build such a city in Shengle, it's really not easy!" It's a pity that it has now been burned down by themselves. β
In front of Zhao Jun was a pitch-black ruin, with remnants of rubble, ruins and broken walls, accompanied by bursts of green smoke.
When Shi Min heard this, he shook his head and said, "Tuoba Shiyiqian is a far-sighted person. The Xianbei people live in pursuit of water and grass, but this is the case in the Mobei grassland, every time in the middle of winter, the cattle and sheep wither, they will go south to herd horses, plunder more population, wealth and food, among which the captive craftsmen and Han people are not a few! β
And Tuoba Shiyigan can change the temperament of the Hu people and establish a country, and his ambition is obvious. With the innate fierceness of the Hu people, coupled with the help of the Han people in the Central Plains and various etiquette systems, this undoubtedly greatly strengthened the strength of their Tuoba Xianbei Department, so Tuoba Shiyi Gan was able to establish a Dai Guo with a population of hundreds of thousands within two years. β
"It's okay to worry about the country." Li Nong said.
It's not Daiguo that worries, but the Hu people in the north who have been killed repeatedly! Shi Min sneered in his heart, but he didn't say it.
The nomads in the north have always been the mortal enemies of the Han dynasty in the Central Plains!
Not to mention the ghost side that is too far away, since the Qin army swept the world and established a unified Great Qin Empire, it can still cope with the increasingly powerful Xiongnu in the north, but this is only on the basis of building the Great Wall.
Some people say that Qin Shi Huang ordered the Great Wall that connected the previous Yan, Zhao, and Qin kingdoms to build the Great Wall to resist the invasion of the Xiongnu in the north. Of course, there is no shortage of reasons for this, but there is another way of saying it.
Another theory is that Qin Shi Huang wanted to use the Great Wall as an outpost and reserve a large amount of grain, grass and military supplies so that he could better invade the Xiongnu in the future.
In any case, after experiencing the struggle for hegemony between Chu and Han, the Chinese homeland has withered and the soldiers are exhausted, while the Xiongnu in the north are under the command of Mao Dun, completely integrating all the nomads in the north and grazing horses in the south.
At that time, Liu Bang also fought a battle with the Huns and suffered the humiliation of the siege of Baideng, which opened a precedent for the Central Plains Dynasty to make peace with the northern nomads.
From the beginning of the siege of Baideng, Hulu became a major problem for the Han people.
And the nomads in the north, their steppe overlords are also changing.
Xiongnu, Xianbei, Turkic, Khitan, Jurchen, Mongol, Manchu...... These nomadic people threaten the security of the Han dynasty in the Central Plains all the time.
When the Central Plains Dynasty is strong, they will surrender, just like the Han and Tang dynasties in history, and whenever these Central Plains dynasties decline, like the end of the Song Dynasty and the end of the Ming Dynasty in history, they will go south to herd horses, so that the Central Plains Han soil will change color and be fishy!
So, since the nomads in the north are the sworn enemies of the Han dynasty in the Central Plains, when the Central Plains Dynasty becomes strong, why not take the opportunity to sweep Mobei and end the power of these nomads in the Mobei grassland?
Without him, because these nomads born on horseback are really a hard bone to gnaw!
The famous generals of the Han Dynasty, Wei Qing and Huo Quai, once went deep into the Mobei grassland to fight the Xiongnu, but in the end they only severely damaged the strength of the Xiongnu and divided them, some of them were annexed, and some of them were forced to flee west.
This huge desert grassland is really a tasteless place to abandon it!
Since ancient times, the Central Plains Dynasty has sent troops to sweep the nomads in Mobei, but they have not been able to completely eliminate the power of the Hu people.
The Hu people live on horseback, chasing water and grass, their whereabouts are erratic, coming and going like the wind, how do you let the army of the Central Plains Dynasty as an agricultural civilization pursue? Therefore, the Great Wall can only be used to defend the way to firmly contain the forces of Hulu in Mobei and block them from the Great Wall.
It is not that the Central Plains Dynasty did not have the idea of completely eliminating Hulu, but the price was too great to outweigh the losses.
is as strong as the Great Han, the era that can shout "Those who offend me and I am strong will be punished even if they are far away", it was Liu Che who exhausted the national strength accumulated by several generations since Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, and this completely crippled the Huns, the invincible overlord of the grassland!
The Mobei grassland is so big and so desolate, it can be called a barren land, and I don't know how much it costs to govern this place!
Therefore, since the Qin and Han dynasties, the Central Plains Dynasty has always been through the practice of dividing and co-opting the nomads in the north, with radishes in one hand and a big stick in the other.
"Newspaperβ"
At this moment, a small colonel flew over, knelt down to Shi Min and said, "Dadu Governor, we have caught a person, it's Han!" β
"Han Chinese?"
Shi Min was stunned, and then waved his hand and said, "Bring people over!" β
"No!"
The little colonel took the order and soon brought an unkempt young man to Shi Min.
Although this young man was dressed in rags, like a beggar, he looked majestic and energetic, and if he was to be dressed in luxurious clothes, he would be a beautiful man with a good demeanor!
Shi Min's first impression of this young man, the most deeply touched, is still his pair of eyes, those touching and sharp eyes, like a sharp sword, people dare not look directly at him!
"Who's down there?" Shi Min said in a deep voice.
"The people of the old Qin land, Qin Mu!"
"You're Han." Shi Min smiled with interest, "I'm very curious, Tuoba Shiyiqian all migrated the Xianbei tribes of Shengle this time, leaving no living creatures, how did you escape from the large army of Xianbei people?" β
"The general should ask how I survived from the butcher's knife of the Xianbei people."
"Oh, butcher's knife?" Shi Min was stunned.
At this time, the little colonel on the side forked his hand and said: "General Huiyu, when we found this person, his side was full of corpses, looking at the costume, it was the corpses of Han slaves and some Xianbei soldiers. β
Shi Min frowned and said, "You dare to kill Hu Ren?" β
"It's just self-preservation." Qin Mu said lightly.
"Where do you want to go?"
"It's just a wandering world."
"When there is chaos today, the world is boiling, where can you go?!"
Shi Min looked at Qin Mu with a side face, and waved his hand: "I see that your martial arts are extraordinary, and you are not an idle person." Why don't you follow me! β
