For Liu Tai, he really needs to set a benchmark, but the benchmark is such a thing, it is better to set up for the dead than for the living.

After all, no matter how heavy the canonization of the dead is, it is impossible for the dead to crawl out of the cemetery.

At the same time, he also needs to make a distinction between his current big man and Liu Yuan's big man.

He is not a Xiongnu Han, he is the orthodoxy of the Han Dynasty, and what he supports is this kind of national hero who fights against foreign races.

So as to make a clearer positioning of his identity, that is, he is the Han of the Han people, not the Han of the Huns.

And Wen Qiao stopped Liu Tai because of this.

In the end, you have grown up with the development of the Xiongnu Han Kingdom, and even to a certain extent, you are the successor of the Xiongnu Han Kingdom, even if you are now the Great Han Han Kingdom, but what you do like this, will it make people feel that they are too disrespectful to recognize people.

No matter what, our Han still recognizes the Xiongnu Han State, if it denies it, what will happen to the Hu people in those forces.

But for Liu Tai, after the construction of the Yongji Canal, he has been able to turn the remaining aliens into Han very smoothly.

Even if they take 10,000 steps back, they still can't speak Chinese, and they can't move bricks other than skills, but at least they can let the aliens survive, and just that, they can let these aliens survive under their own governance.

Therefore, it is no longer important whether you hold high the banner of the Xiongnu and Han countries, the most important thing is to hold high the banner of the Han Dynasty.

Of course, if this happens, it will be a little more difficult for you to subdue the battle of Guanzhong.

But for Liu Tai, sometimes clarifying his position makes it easier for him to determine who is a friend and who is an enemy, and even for others, he can better determine his position.

As for elevating the status of Zu Ti and Liu Kun, and letting them enjoy the same sacrifice as themselves, by current standards, it is naturally at the level of a prince, and it is indeed enviable for people to know it.

Even if they are called emperors in the future, then these national heroes will be able to enjoy the emperor's etiquette, which will inevitably detract a little too much from the prestige of these Han countries.

After all, the greatest glory of the ancient courtiers after their death was "my father deserves to enjoy the Taimiao", and they were sacrificed by the way when sacrificing to the emperor.

However, Liu Tai is different, because as long as it is a normal war death sacrifice, it will also enter the martyr's shrine, and every year you will enjoy the incense of Liu Tai's knighthood.

Even every time a recruit enlists in the army, a soldier goes out of the city, returns from a battle, a veteran retires, etc., as long as the time is not so tense that it can't be freed up for a day, it will let the soldiers go to unify the incense.

This is also the basis for the relatively unified thinking of the soldiers under Liu Tai, and it is the basis for being willing to fight to the death.

Therefore, it is not a special case to be able to enjoy the same treatment and incense as Liu Tai.

Liu Tai didn't feel how extravagant this kind of thing was, otherwise he wouldn't have shared it with all the soldiers who sacrificed for the country.

And this is the glory shared by the Han to all the warriors, but in the words of the Jin court, it is the treatment that only the top people in the Jin court who are recognized by Liu Tai can enjoy.

Anyway, I followed Liu Kun and cooperated many times in the north.

Even if he is really innocent with him, if he only establishes Liu Kun alone, what if others double the connection between themselves and Liu Kun, and don't believe it.

Therefore, I still pulled Zu Ti over and let these two guys debut together as a group.

The most important thing is that they are all dedicated to the Jin court, but the Jin court is extremely ruthless when it deals with them.

Whether it is directly abandoning Liu Kun in the north, or seizing Zu Li's military power, or even making Zu Li angry to death, it can be said that the Jin court is spoiling its own talents.

This makes the talents who have not followed Jin Tingchao a little hesitant, and the talents who follow Jin Tingchao are a little more suspicious.

Even if the Ming Dynasty is the most upright in the country, in the face of the example of Yu Shaobao first and then Lu Shangshu, the impact of this has made many people with lofty ideals cold and unvirtuous villains flock to the Donglin Party.

Therefore, it doesn't matter if Liu Tai gives Liu Kun and Zu Ti a reputation, he doesn't mind anyway.

However, Liu Tai's calm and unhurried attitude made Huan Xuan full of feelings.

For him, he really wants to have such a person on his family tree, even if this person is not himself, but the hidden benefits brought by this are too important for a family that values reputation.

After all, under the family system, the word fame and fortune are always fame in the front and profit in the back, not to mention that this benefit can really benefit the whole family.

Huan Xuan took the initiative to invite Ying and told Liu Tai that he would be this lobbyist to persuade Zu Yue.

After all, Huan Xuan also knew that after he surrendered to Liu Tai, he didn't even know if he could continue to be in charge of the army, but if Zu Yue was pulled over, it would be more or less a group, and it would not be too uncomfortable to be under Liu Tai under the warmth of the group.

In fact, Zhou Ping and Zu Yue are also in a stalemate.

Because of the habit that Liu Tai brought out along the way, it was also a tactic at the beginning to clear the outer defense facilities as much as possible, at least besieging Zu for a while, waiting for Zhao An's signal before starting.

Especially the siege of the city, which is even more common in war, the more days of siege, then the more days of siege.

Anyway, Zhou Ping has the Yellow River as a food channel, and he is not afraid of running out of food, but Zuyue is different.

In the final analysis, this is also the benefit of Liu Tai to open up the Yongji Canal, with the gradual arrival of time, there are winter wheat harvests in Youzhou and Qingzhou in summer, and a bumper corn harvest in Hebei in autumn, not to mention that the dried fish in Bohai Bay is constantly dispatched from the rear, so Zhou Ping also fought a protracted battle with an indifferent face.

As for letting his elite go to forcibly attack the city, so as to make a meat grinder, Zhou Ping will not do it.

Zhou Ping, who was brought out by Liu Tai, knew very well that if he did it like this, he was afraid that he would no longer be qualified to lead the army independently in the future.

Although his own king seems to be like a soldier, he loves soldiers like a son, and he cherishes these soldiers very much.

And Zhou Ping looked at the military history around him, although the status of military history in the army is more biased towards the observation of a third party, unless the general asks in his personal capacity in private, the military history is just a record of every military meeting and every operational decision.

But even so, if you cause serious damage to your soldiers because of your wrong orders, you will be reported to the king!

Therefore, Zhou Ping also imitated Liu Tai's siege method as much as possible, and made preliminary preparations for the siege, but when the real siege came, it was thunderous, and any trick was used.

Similarly, Zu Yue was also quite upset when he looked at Zhou Ping's army outside the city.

If Zhou Ping could attack quickly after surrounding Chen Liu's office, then Zu Yue would not be so troubled.

Because if the other party comes to attack, then he only needs to think about stationing the city, but the other party is slow to attack, which makes Zu Yue can't help but think nonsense.

After all, logically speaking, you are waiting for reinforcements, what are you waiting for as the attacker?!

Therefore, Zu Yue also relied on the Beifu soldiers to go out of the city to attack the Han army, but the Han army was indeed elite, and they woke up almost immediately after discovering the sneak attack, and each formed a formation according to the camp, and then pushed directly to the camp tent to fight with himself.

His surprise attack can be said to have taken no advantage at all, especially since the opponent's archers could discern the direction in the dark, so they shot without scruples, and they didn't dare to fight, and hurriedly retreated to the city with the army.

It can be said that Zu Yue is also a headache now, and it is easy to say that the Han army has not taken the initiative to attack the city, but as the other party launches an attack, the gap in the armor of the two sides will inevitably be revealed, and it will not be easy to defend the city at that time.

At this time, Zu Yue saw a group of soldiers and horses running all the way to Zhou Ping's barracks, but he couldn't help but feel a little envy in his heart.

Look at the others, their own reinforcements have not yet arrived, but the reinforcements have already arrived.

However, Zu Yue looked at the direction where this army of soldiers and horses came, and his face suddenly changed, because he found that the direction of Changyi, where Huan Xuan was stationed, could it be that Changyi had been broken and Huan Xuan had perished!

"Brother, go all the way!" When Zu Yue thought of this, he couldn't help but sigh with a little sadness in his heart.

In Zhou Ping's military camp, a team of envoys soon came, led by Huan Xuan, and said loudly, "I am Huan Xuan, let me go in to see Shishao!" ”

When the soldiers heard Huan Xuan's words, they couldn't help but put their eyes on Zu Yue's body, Zu Yue looked at Huan Xuan, was silent for a while, and said: "Put the hanging basket and bring General Huan Xuan up!" But only one of them is allowed! ”

When the soldiers heard this, they began to put the hanging basket down, and at the same time told Huan Xuan that he would only receive the order of one person.

And Huan Xuan looked at the hanging basket that Zu Yue put down, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but smile bitterly, but he also rode up the hanging basket without hesitation.

Huan Xuan had just come up, and he hadn't even stood firm, but Zu Yue had already pulled out his sword and put it on Huan Xuan's neck.

For a while, not only the surrounding soldiers, but even the Huan Xuan soldiers under the city wall instinctively pulled out the blades in their hands.

But after looking at it, I didn't seem to be able to help much, so I was embarrassed to plug it back.

"Shi Shao, what are you doing!" Huan Xuan looked at the sword that Zu Yue held around his neck and said calmly.

"You explain well, why did you come out of the barracks of the Han army, and you yourself said that you had defected to the enemy and committed treason!"

Zu Yue couldn't help but say, "In vain, I have always thought that you are honest and loyal, don't you behave like this to disgrace the lintel of your Huan family?" Today I use your head to show my determination to resist the enemy! ”

"Wait!" Huan Xuan heard Zu Yue's words and said loudly, "Won't you listen to me first!?" ”

"Okay, for the sake of our friendship over the years, I'll give you a chance to leave your last words." Zu Youdao,

"When your last words are finished, I will send you to see your brother and see if you are ashamed or not!"

"Wang Dun won, Jianye is broken, and we have no reinforcements!" Huan Xuan said simply and simply.

Hearing this, Zu Yue couldn't help but take a step back, and the soldiers around him were even more discussed.

Everyone didn't expect that Huan Xuan would actually bring such a news, although it would not collapse the whole army, but it was definitely enough to make the morale of the soldiers and generals freeze.

Of course, the biggest headache for Zu Yue was that Wang Dun actually won, think about how his old brother Zu Yi suppressed Wang Dun during his lifetime.

Zu Yue thought about it with his toes, and knew that Wang Dun was in power, and it was absolutely impossible for him to have reinforcements.

"If you talk nonsense again, don't blame the sword in my hand!" Zu Yue couldn't help but say angrily, "If you think that these despicable words can shake the hearts of our army, then you are too underestimate the army trained by my brother!" ”

"Liu Kui, Liu Shizhong is below, you let people put the hanging basket to send him up, he came up, you naturally know if I lied to you!" Huan Xuan looked at Zu Yue and didn't believe it, and said, "During this time, do you want to listen to the conditions that King Han gave you." ”

Zu Yue asked the soldiers to fish up Liu Kui below, turned his head and preached to Huan,

"Do you think that just a few gold and silver treasures, high-ranking officials and Houlu can make me grovel and forget my ancestors, say what reward Liu Tai is going to give me, is it the king of Yuzhou, or the marquis of Che?!"

Huan Xuan heard Zu Yue's slightly mocking words, shook his head and said, "That's nothing!" ”

"Huh?!" Zu Yue couldn't help but laugh when he heard Huan Xuan's words, and said, "Liu Tai is crazy, the emperor hasn't sent hungry soldiers yet, he wants me to surrender, won't he even give me any benefits?" Why did he think I should surrender? Am I crazy?! ”

Huan Xuan listened to the ridicule in Zu Yue's tone, but he also said with a serious expression, "The King of Han thinks that since the Yongjia Rebellion, only Liu Kun Sikong and Zu Yuzhou can be called heroes, so he has sent me to inform you, as long as you surrender."

General Zu Ti will be canonized as a national hero of the Han nationality like Liu Sikong, and enjoy the same ceremonial worship as the king of Han. ”

When Zu Yue heard Huan Xuan's words, he couldn't help but be stunned, such a condition was something Zu Yue had never thought of, and at this moment, listening to Zu Yue's ears, it was even more deafening.

To a certain extent, Liu Tai said that as long as he gave up resistance and relied on eating his brother's legacy, as long as the Han Dynasty was not destroyed, his ancestral family seemed to be able to eat it until death.

Compared with the other promises given to Zu Yue, the conditions that Liu Tai gave in front of him did make Zu Yue feel that the sword on Huan Xuan's shoulder was a little heavy.

After all, nothing is more important to the Maison than its survival.

Don't care how long Liu Tai's Han can survive, but it is irrefutable that it is indeed the Han Dynasty that is strong and the Jin court is declining, and there is even a tendency to unify the world.

At this time, Liu Kui was finally pulled up, and at this moment he looked at the silent Huan Xuan and Zu Yue, first looked at them, and saw that they still didn't speak, so he could only speak first:

"Zu Yanzhou, now that the Jin court has been taken by the rebel king Dun, could it be that Zu Yanzhou plans to serve Wang Dun and his ilk?

The Central Plains is full of disasters, the general trend of the revival of the Yan and Han Dynasty has been completed, even if the general does not have the opportunity to become the mainstay of the brother, and the building will fall, but he can also become a minister who unifies the world and leave a name in history, please think twice! ”

When Zu Yue heard Liu Kui's words, his eyes couldn't help but sharpen.
