Chapter 5: Seeing Joy and Tenderness in the Snow (5)

Loulan's camp is not big, it is very compact, the distance between each camp and the camp is not large, it is convenient to transmit news, the whole camp is connected to a circle, Tuoba Jie sneaked into the camp with night marchers, and began to look for grain and grass, he observed that the entire camp was round, and thought in his heart: "The center point, there will be more grain and grass." ”

He turned left and right, and finally came to the center point, this center point is the center of the circle, he was just about to approach the grain and grass, the Loulan people patrolling all the way over, and the leader said to the soldiers guarding the grain and grass: "Cheer up, look at the grain and grass, and be careful of your head." ”

The soldier guarding the grain and grass said timidly: "You must be 、、、、、、 you must be optimistic about the grain and grass." The patrol general looked around and walked away with the people. Seeing them walking away, the soldiers who were looking at the grain and grass complained: "What's the spirit, isn't it just a patrolman? Wait for Lao Tzu to patrol one day, and let you be careful of your head!" The soldier stretched, yawned, and went into the house to sleep.

Seeing that the time was ripe, Tuoba Jie hurriedly jumped to the side of the grain and grass, took out the fire fold, and shook it by the wind, and the fire broke the grain and grass, and in an instant, the fire was ignited, and the night marchers who came with him set fire to the grain and grass of the other camps, and then they quickly withdrew to the hillside where the first road was ambushed.

At this time, the people of Loulan had already found that the grain and grass were on fire, and there was a big mess in the Loulan camp, shouting everywhere: "The grain and grass are on fire, come and put out the fire!" At this time, the other three people had already bypassed from behind the mountain and killed directly to the Loulan camp, and the people and horses who were ambushed on the opposite hillside killed them from the front.

Tuoba Jie jumped on horseback, also rushed in, Loulan camp has been on fire, shouting and killing, after most of the night fighting, Loulan almost completely annihilated, Yun Shilu and a few generals to protect Yu Chi Kunyu escaped, they did not dare to continue to kill, all the way back to Loulan country.

The Xiongnu saw that the Loulan camp was on fire, and sent the generals to respond, and when their men and horses went out of the city halfway, the fourth road of the Xianbei Murong tribe was killed, the city gate was open, it was too late to pass the pass, the fourth road of people and horses rushed over directly, Tuoba Jie followed, rushed into the city, fought hard, captured the generals in the city, and the Xianbei Murong tribe seized the border town of the Xiongnu.

The city was lost, and the Xiongnu knew the news that night, although the border town was not big, it was the security boundary of the Xiongnu. Today's Xiongnu country, divided into the main battle faction and the main peace faction, Zuo Xianwang is sitting on the mountain to watch the tiger, the main battle faction and the main peace faction do not participate in each other, just want to wait for the end, sit on the profit of the fisherman. The main battle faction was weak and outnumbered, and the main and military factions were afraid of war, and after discussing with the important ministers of the civil and military forces that night, it was decided to negotiate peace with the Xianbei Murong tribe to return to the border town.

The next day, the Xiongnu sent an envoy to the Xianbei Murong tribe, and the envoy brought not only a letter from Shan Yu, but also a lot of gifts. In ancient history, any defeated country or tribe wanted to hold peace talks, and they had to bring gifts to express their intention to pay tribute after defeat.

After a few days of trekking, the Xiongnu envoy arrived at the Xianbei Murong tribe, and he smiled at the first sentry soldier of the tribe and said, "I am tired of informing Lord Murong that the envoys of the Tianhu Kingdom have come to meet him. As he spoke, he bowed to the end, waiting for an answer, and the soldier looked at him and asked, "Do you have a certificate for the audience?" The envoy took out Shan Yu's letter from his body and said, "Here is a letter from Tianhu Guo Shan Yu." As he spoke, he handed over the letter, and the soldier took the letter and said, "You wait a while, and then I will report it." The soldiers hurriedly ran to Murong Detao's big tent with the letter.

In the past two days, Murong Detao was busy celebrating in the tribe, Tuoba Jie seized the small border city of the Xiongnu, which is a symbol of the strength of the Murong tribe, daring to fight with the Xiongnu, is not something that ordinary tribes can do, in the Western Regions at that time, the Xiongnu has always been a strong and aggressive country, many small countries and tribes have been annexed by the Xiongnu, and now the Xiongnu is not as powerful as before, because of the rise of other small tribes in the Western Regions, and gradually began to rebel against the Xiongnu, so that many small tribes slowly broke away from the jurisdiction of the Xiongnu.

At this time, he was talking to Captain Yun Shi Chu about the next step, how to let Tuoba Jie conquer other tribes. Suddenly, I heard the soldiers come to report, saying that the Xiongnu envoys asked to see, Murong Detao was happy, took the letter from Shan Yu in the hands of the soldiers, and after reading it, he said to Yunshi Chu: "Captain, our good things are coming!" Yunshi Chu said comfortably: "This time, our Xianbei Murong tribe, it's time to raise our eyebrows, and we have been enslaved for the Xiongnu for many years, and now, it's time to get rid of the Xiongnu." ”

Murong Detao said: "The captain is right, this is exactly what I, Murong Detao, have been thinking about for a long time, this time, I can finally turn over." The two looked at each other and nodded, and immediately announced that the Xiongnu envoys had come to meet them. The Xiongnu envoy walked into Murong Detao's big tent quickly, and after paying respectful gifts, he presented various gifts that Shan Yu brought to Murong Detao, including Tianshan Snow Lotus, walnuts, courgettes, and a sweaty BMW from the Western Regions. The Xiongnu envoy said: "Tianhu and the Xianbei Murong tribe have always had a close relationship, I don't know Lord Murong, the recent conquest of Tianhu, what is the so-called thing?"

Murong Detao said: "In the past, Tianhu had fought against the Xianbei Murong tribe many times, and now, the Murong tribe is already strong, and we just want to prove the ability of the Murong tribe to Tianhu." The Xiongnu envoy said: "Now, the Murong tribe is indeed strong, and they can live in peace with Tianhu, conquer other tribes, and share benefits, but they should not seize the small border city of Tianhu." ”

Murong Detao said: "If Tianhu wants to return to the border town, he must release Tianhu's enslavement of the Murong tribe. The Xiongnu envoy said: "Lord Murong, this time, the Tianhu Kingdom sent me here to release the enslavement of the Murong tribe, as long as the adults agree to return my Tianhu border town, the future enslavement will be completely lifted." ”

When Murong Detao heard this, he peeked at Yun Shichu who was sitting next to him, and seeing him nodding his head and hinting, Murong Detao smiled and said, "Okay, it's decided, the envoy can go back to inform Shan Yu, five days later, negotiate peace in the border town and conclude an alliance." ”

The Xiongnu envoy stood up and saluted: "Below, let's go back, show my lord Tianjiao, and negotiate peace in the border town in five days." After sending off the Xiongnu envoys, Murong Detao asked Yun Shichu: "Captain, after the peace negotiation, how should I explain my sister's affairs to Tuoba Jie, if I don't confess, how can he serve me with peace of mind?"

Yun Shichu said: "My lord, we can tell him that after defeating Tianhu, we will know that it was not Tianhu who snatched the young lady." Next, when he returns, let's make plans. Murong Detao nodded in approval.
