Chapter 0683: Quartet Barrier
Xuan, Tuyuhun envoy Zhong evil to see! ”
With Liu Zhi's announcement, Zhong Weidi, who had been waiting outside the Fengtian Hall for a long time, lowered his head, hunched his waist, and entered the main hall step by step, and bowed three times and nine times to Ran Min on the red carpet, shouting long live.
"Tugu Hun has a long history of Zhong Evil, knock on His Majesty the Emperor of Wei! Your Majesty Holy Bow Jin'an! ”
"I'm there."
Ran Min bowed slightly, and then gave a false support, so that Zhong was viciously flattened.
"Zhong Weidi, I have been in the country of Great Wei for 12 years, but Tuyuhun has never sent an envoy to the court, why did you come?"
"Your Majesty, forgive me! For many years since the founding of the Great Wei Dynasty, I Tuyuhun has wanted to enter Daliang many times to worship His Majesty, but I have been forced by neighboring countries to make the trip. ”
"Who oppressed you?"
Zhong said with an embarrassed face: "It's the Eastern Jin Dynasty." ”
"The Eastern Jin Dynasty has long been wiped out. After the fall of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, why didn't Tuyuhun go to the court to see me? Could it be that he looks down on Da Wei? ”
"Your Majesty laughed." Zhong said viciously: "Although the Eastern Jin Dynasty has perished, Murong Xianbei is still there!" The relationship between Tuyuhun and Murong Xianbei, Your Majesty should know. My king remembered the old feelings, and he couldn't bear to help Wei destroy Yan, nor did he want to help Yan attack Wei, so he remained neutral. ”
"Hehe, so Murong Pixi is really a kind and generous person!"
The relationship between Tuyuhun and Murong Xianbei, Ran Min is naturally very clear.
Tuyuhun, originally a human name, is the eldest son of the Xianbei Murong clan in Liaodong Shan Yu Murong Shegui.
Shegui, also known as Yi Luohan, has two sons, the eldest son is called Tuyuhun, and the youngest son is called Ruoluo. After Murong Shegui's death, if Luo Yu ruled the tribe as an agent, it was Murong Diao. Tuyuhun is Murong Diao's half-brother, and his father Shegui once assigned him 1,700 households as a trilogy. When Murong Diao inherited the position of Xianbei chieftain, the horses of Tuyuhun and Murong Diao fought.
Tugu Hun then led his department to move west to Shanglong, and lived in the Yin Mountain to the west.
At the time of the Yongjia Rebellion, Tuyuhun took the opportunity to cross Longyou and develop westward, from Caohan to Gansong, south to Angcheng and Longgan, from Taoshui southwest to the end of Bailan, with a radius of thousands of miles.
They followed the water and weeds, built rudimentary houses and tents, and used meat and cheese as food, and the mixed races of the north-west called them Achailu. Xianbei called his brother "Agan", and Murong Diao thought of his brother, so he wrote "The Song of Agan".
Later, the king of Henan, Tuguhun, died.
Tuyuhun had more than sixty sons, and the eldest son, Murong Tuyan, succeeded to the throne. Murong Tuyan was tall and brave, and the Qiang and Hu people were very afraid of him.
In the fourth year of Emperor Xianhe of Jin Cheng (329 AD), Murong Tuyan, the king of Henan, was strong and brave but had many suspicions, Jiang Cong, the leader of the Qiang tribe, assassinated him and entered the body with a sword. Murong Tuyan did not draw his sword, summoned his subordinate general, and asked him to assist his son Murong Yeyan to protect Bailan, and then drew his sword and died.
Murong Yeyan has been brave and decisive since he was a child, when he was ten years old, he took the form of a human and named Jiang Cong, and shot it every morning, howling and crying when he shot it.
His mother said, "The thief has been killed and made into food, so why should you be troubled every day and keep asking for hardships every day!" Murong Yeyan whimpered as if she couldn't control herself, and replied to her mother: "I really know that it's useless, but my heart is endless and I can't bear the pain." "Murong Ye is very filial, his mother is sick, he doesn't eat for three days, and he doesn't eat either.
He read a lot of classics, claiming that his great-ancestor Yiluo Han had been named the Duke of Changli, I am the heir of Gongsun, according to the "Li", the heir of Gongsun can use his grandfather's word as a clan, so he used Tuyuhun as a clan, and took the country name Tuyuhun.
In 351 AD, Murong Yeyan, the leader of Tuyuhun, died. Murong Yeyan had twelve sons, and his son Murong Bixi succeeded him.
The current reigning leader of Tuyuhun is this Murong Pixi.
"Zhong Evil, Murong Bixi sent you, what is the matter?"
Zhong saluted evilly: "Your Majesty, since the king of Tuyuhun, I Tuyuhun has been canonized as the king of Henan by the Central Plains Dynasty, and now that the Eastern Jin Dynasty has perished, Your Majesty has established a unified empire." The minister came by the king's order, please canonize my king as the king of Henan! ”
"King of Henan?"
Ran Min smiled faintly: "Zhong Weidi, I don't know how much land, how many people, how many cities, how many soldiers and horses Tuyuhun has?" ”
"Returning to Your Majesty, I Tugu Hun has to be based on Gan and Qingjian, and actually controls Taohe and Longgu (now Songpan, Sichuan Province) in the east, Chishui and Bailan in the west, the Yellow River in the north, and Dajishi Mountain in the south. It is adjacent to Xiliang in the north and Guanzhong in the east. The radius is thousands of miles longitudinal and horizontal, with a population of more than one million, regardless of men, women and children, all the people are soldiers, and there can be 300,000 people who control the strings in their heyday! ”
Brag!
Ran Min glanced at Zhong Evil with disdain, and said, "Tuyuhun is really so strong, why should he ask Great Wei to canonize the king of Henan?" Wouldn't it be good for Murong Pixi to call the emperor directly? ”
When Zhong Wei heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then said, "Your Majesty said that you are laughing. I Tuyuhun has always been subservient to the Central Plains Dynasty, accept the canonization of the Emperor of Middle-earth, this is a long-standing tradition, my king treats people benevolently and generously, and understands the etiquette of the Han family, so I want to treat the Great Wei as a vassal courtesy, please Your Majesty Mingjian! ”
"In this way, is it my honor that Tuyuhun can surrender to Great Wei?"
Ran Min sneered and said, "Zhong Evilland, it's really not a secret, I can canonize Murong Pixi as the king of Henan, but Tuyuhun must be controlled by the empire." I want to set up the Anxi Protectorate in Tuyuhun, I don't know what you Tuyuhun wants? ”
"This ......"
Zhong forced a smile and said, "Your Majesty, isn't this a little too strong?" ”
"Why is it difficult to talk about being strong?" Ran Min shrugged his shoulders and said, "Actually, rather than setting up the Anxi Protectorate, I would prefer to directly incorporate Tuyuhun into the territory of the empire and set up prefectures and counties to manage them. My Great Wei now has Andong, Western Regions, Yidao, Yizhou, Beiting, and Anbei six major protectorates, but this is far from enough, in my imagination, the Great Wei Empire must have a buffer in all directions, as the empire's barrier and exist as a capital protectorate. Therefore, Tuyuhun and Funan, Zhenla and other countries in the southwest will become the new capital of the Great Wei Empire. ”
Zhong Vicious couldn't help but be dumbfounded, frightened by Ran Min's wolf ambitions.
However, with the current national strength of the Great Wei Empire, it is not difficult to achieve this goal. Then Zhong Vicious said that he couldn't make the decision, and he wanted to ask Murong Bixi, so the matter had to be stopped.
And when the ministers heard Ran Min's idea, the generals were very happy, but Wenchen was gloomy.
In the imperial history, Cheng Wei Yan even said directly: "Your Majesty, if it is decided today, all kinds of waste are waiting to be revived, and the military affairs are greatly revitalized, and the territory is expanded, lest the army will be reckless, which will be unfavorable to the country!" ”
"Lord Wei's words are wrong!"
Great Sima Li Nong came out and said: "Taking the land of the four directions as the capital protectorate, as a barrier to consolidate the empire, so that the empire does not have to be invaded by foreign invaders, this is a matter that is beneficial to thousands of generations and future generations!" Moreover, although the army will lose some money and food, and some soldiers will be killed or wounded, it is also acceptable! ”
The civil and military officials immediately divided into two factions and began to quarrel, stubborn and refusing to give in to each other.
Ran Min shook his head and said, "I have made up my mind. The empire will set up the Anxi Protectorate and the Annam Protectorate in the southwest, and the various departments of the country, such as Tuyuhun, Funan, and Zhenla, will send a large army to conquer if they are not satisfied! ”
