Farmers of Shu Han

Chapter 1300 Grassland
Seeing Tuoba Desert Khan go out with some regret, Tuoba Li slightly pulled the exquisite and warm wool wrapped around his body, and sighed slightly:
"My son, although he can be regarded as a hero, is a bit too straightforward and doesn't know how to adapt."

In the past, Wei was strong and Han was weak, so it was right to help Han.

This is the reason why Ke Bineng once wanted to attack Wei State with Han State from north to south.

Ke Bi can understand the truth, but his son has not yet understood it.

Later, the Han and Wei dynasties were equal, so Suotou did not help each other, and sat on the mountain to watch the tigers fight.

Later, he was asked to go to the two frontier fortresses to investigate the reality and do things cheaply, just to make him see and think more.

Unexpectedly, after he returned to the family, he tried his best to persuade himself to be good to Han.

Han is strong and Wei is weak, and being close to Han and neglecting Wei can be said to help the strong destroy the weak.

Watching the Han Dynasty for more than [-] years, when the Han Dynasty was strong, it was the day when the grassland was peaceful.

Thinking of this, Tuoba Liwei sighed again:
"I'm also to blame for this, because I once told him that in the past, the Xiongnu and Tadun's people were greedy for money and profit, and plundered the border people. Although they made money, their deaths and injuries were not enough to make up for it. They also attracted bandits and the people were burned. It is not a long-term plan."

"It's hard for him to keep it in his heart. It's a pity that he only hears the superficial words, but he doesn't think about the meaning."

The purpose of being friendly with Nanxia is to protect the peace of the tribes on the grassland.

Instead of making goodwill with Nanxia, ​​he would rather let the tribe be slaves.

If the purpose and means are reversed, the original intention will be lost!

The deacon in black nodded:

"What Ke Han said is very true. I have heard that before Feng Mingwen came out of Sichuan, there were rumors of 'eat the flesh and blood of barbarians every day, and guard three thousand barbarian women at night'. The barbarians in the south were terrified when they heard it.

(Note: Khan may have come from Xianbei at the earliest. It was originally called Kehan. Emperor Tuobatao of the Northern Wei Dynasty sent people to engrave a stele, offering sacrifices to heaven and earth.

"When they arrived in Liangzhou, the Western Xianbei were either driven back to Mobei to be accompanied by natural disasters, or they were taken into slavery, which is enough to prove that the rumors are true."

"After arriving in Jiuyuan, Ke Bineng and his ilk thought they could form an alliance with them. Who would have thought that not only the clan's elite riders would be wiped out, but they would also die before the battle. It's really ridiculous!"

"The Han State regards this man as the great Sima, who holds power and holds military talismans. From the Han emperor down, he will never disobey his orders. If we are lucky and have illusions, I am afraid that we will follow in the footsteps of Kebi Neng."

"Yes!" Tuoba Li slightly nodded in agreement, "If the Han Kingdom doesn't rule the country with a notorious person like Feng Mingwen, I will have a good relationship with the Han Kingdom..."

It's just that when he thinks of all kinds of appalling rumors about a certain guy named Feng, even if Tuoba Liwei is regarded as a talented person in the grassland, he also feels like shrinking back.

Notoriety is not only intimidating, it can be intimidating as well.

The more Tuoba Liwei thought about it, he couldn't help feeling worried:

"Although it is not the best strategy to unite Wei and fight against Han, it can be regarded as the middle strategy. It's just that Han is powerful now, but Wei has power officials who are at odds and fight with each other."

"Wei State can't unite against Han. I'm afraid that Sima Yi of Wei State alone can't stop Feng Mingwen of Han State!"

The deacon in black smiled and said:

"Why is Ke Han so self-deprecating? In the battle of Chibi in the past, Cao Cao was strong and Sun Liu was weak. Therefore, the alliance of Sun and Liu defeated Cao's millions with [-] soldiers, and established the three kingdoms."

"Today Han is strong and Wei is weak, but Han has 15 people who control strings, which is far more than Sun Quan's [-] weak people in the past. What more worries?"

Tuoba Li slightly heard the words, but the worry on his face did not dissipate, he only heard him say to the deacon in black:

"I heard that the reason why Cao Cao was defeated in the Battle of Chibi was because he didn't know how to maneuver a boat. Now that the cavalry army in the Han Dynasty is very prosperous, I'm afraid it can't be compared like this?"

The deacon in black felt a little helpless:

"Kehan, no matter how powerful the Han Chinese cavalry is, isn't Kehan's 15 string-controlling men not strong enough?"

"What's more, if Kehan ​​is used to compare Sun Quan during the Chibi War, then Wei Guo is more than ten times stronger than Liu Bei at that time."

He paused and lowered his voice slightly:
"If Ke Han feels that 15 string controls are not enough, then add another 20, how about [-]?"

"20?" Tuoba Li was slightly taken aback, "How can I get 20 warriors?"

The deacon in black whispered four words: "There is no deer returning to the Ministry."

Although his voice was soft, but in Tuoba Liwei's ears, it made him feel like a thunderbolt, so startled that he suddenly lifted the woolen clothes on his body, and stood up:

"no!"

Tuoba Li stared at the black-clothed deacon slightly:

"Master Wulu Huibu is my uncle. I have today because of his past grace. If I take advantage of his tribe's weakness and swallow it, how will I face Ke Dun? How will I convince all the tribes on the grassland in the future?"

(Kedun: Khan's wife, also Dou Bin's daughter.)
Under Tuoba Liwei's gaze, the black-clothed deacon's expression remained unchanged:

"Kehan, the Wuluhui tribe is certainly our benefactor, but Khan must not forget that according to what the eldest prince said, he once met Dou Suhou and Dou Huiti, the second sons of Dou Bin in Pingcheng."

"Even Dou Suhou and Dou Huiti deliberately made things difficult for the eldest prince."

The deacon in black emphasized his tone:
"Kehan, the Wuluhui tribe is located in the southwest of Beichuan, not far from Pingcheng. If you don't make a plan as soon as possible, I'm afraid it will be too late!"

Tuoba Li slightly heard the words, his expression changed, and then he showed hesitation and embarrassment:
"This...but, Lord Dou Bin..."

In the end he shook his head, then looked at the deacon in black:
"Deacon, I swear I won't be a ungrateful person." After a pause, he continued, "I know the deacon is doing it for my own good, and the fact that Dou Suhou and Dou Huiti went to Pingcheng is indeed worthy of attention."

"How about this, after returning to Beichuan, I will personally send someone to the Wuluhui Department to ask Master Dou Bin what he wants."

Speaking of this, he said quite confidently, "And I believe that Master Dou Bin will never have the heart to return to Han!"

The reason is simple.

Master Dou Bin was originally a Han Chinese with a prominent family background. His father was the prefect of Yanmen. Because his family was in great trouble, he fled outside the Great Wall to join the Huns.

The father and son have been the masters of Wulu Huibu for nearly [-] years.

It is said that as early as 50 years ago, the emperor of the Han Dynasty had rehabilitated Lord Dou Bin's family.

If Lord Dou Bin wanted to return to the south, he would have had the opportunity to return to Han.

Even if there were concerns at that time, when Cao Cao moved to the Xiongnu, why did Master Dou Bin prefer to leave Yinshan and go north to join Xianbei instead of going to Han?

In the early years, Tuoba Liwei and Master Dou Bin repeatedly conquered the Xianbei in the west, knowing that Dou Bin would never seek refuge in Han.

When the orthodox emperor of the Han family was in power, he had no intention of returning to the south. Now that he has come to an unknown Han family, he is even less likely to go to seek refuge.

The deacon in black knew that Tuoba Liwei and Dou Bin had a deep friendship, and that Dou Bin, as Tuoba Liwei said, harbored resentment towards the Han Dynasty.

In fact, he even tried to pull Dou Bin into a century-old career.

It's a pity that the old stubborn, who didn't know what he was thinking, actually sternly refused.

But it is not important.

"Kehan, Master Dou Bin is getting old!" The black-clothed deacon reminded, "I'm not saying that Master Dou Bin will return to the south to join Han."

"What I want to say is that his sons have been disrespectful to Ke Han for a long time. If they are in charge of the Luhui Department in the future, it may be detrimental to Ke Han."

"Even," the black-clothed deacon warned Tuoba Liwei solemnly, "They may go south to the Han Kingdom and use the power of the Han people to deal with the Xianbei tribes on the grassland."

When Tuoba Li heard it slightly, his face suddenly became gloomy.

Because he knew that what the deacon said was not impossible.

Tuoba Liwei is nearly seventy years old, his uncle Dou Bin will naturally be older.

Even if you live a hundred years, how many years can you live?
If he and Master Dou Bin went to see the gods together, Suotou and Wuluhui turned around and knocked out the dog's brains, that's not impossible.

Is sandalwood sorrel powerful?

It can force the Han emperor to directly sue for peace.

In the end, wasn't it because the affairs behind him were not handled well, which caused the Great Xianbei to fall apart?
Thinking of this, Tuoba Liwei's face became more and more ugly.

It's just that he is a person with great perseverance, and he finally breathed a sigh of relief:

"This matter should be discussed in the long term, and Master Dou Bin is still in good health, so we don't need to think about this issue for now. The most important thing for us right now is to return to Changchuan as soon as possible and prepare for the white disaster."

Living in Changchuan, away from the frontier fortress, can certainly avoid getting into Han-Hu disputes and tribal chaos.

But at the same time, they have to face more serious white disasters than those in the south.

And the disadvantage of inconvenient trading with Nanxia for supplies.

Moreover, as more and more tribes came to attach themselves, the population also continued to increase, and the pressure on food rations also increased.

This southward transaction was actually a test by Tuoba Liwei.

Because Beichuan was almost unable to bear so many tribes and population.

Coupled with the erratic climate these years, the matter of moving south has reached the point where it has to be put on the agenda.

And the situation in Nanxia forced Tuoba Liwei to choose between the Han and Wei dynasties.

Obviously, Tuoba Liwei chose Wei Guo in the end.

"Kind Wei and abandon Han!"

Tuoba Desert Khan left the sweat tent with a gloomy expression.

To this day, thinking of the incomparably sharp Han army he saw outside Pingcheng, Tuoba Desert Khan is still a little terrified.

It was also in Youzhou, a frontier fortress of Wei State, and it was not that he had never met Wei Jun.

If he really had to choose an opponent between the two, he would rather choose Wei Jun.

However, what the deacon said was not unreasonable.

Both the western and central parts were destroyed by the Han Dynasty, especially people like Ke Bineng, who were rare in Xianbei, and could not escape the fate of death and family extinction.

So if Suotou is close to Han, how can he avoid such a fate?

The noise not far away interrupted Tuoba Desert Khan's thinking.

He looked up, and it turned out that it was getting late, and someone lit a bonfire and began to grill the mutton.

A group of people gathered around the bonfire, many of them were dressed in fine wool that they bought from the state of Wei, singing and dancing.

Some people couldn't wait to take out the spirits that were also exchanged from Wei people, and you took a sip and I took a sip.

On the grassland in September, the night has begun to become cold.

Drinking a few sips of strong wine can warm up the body, it is really a good thing.

Seeing the happy faces of all the people enjoying the supplies exchanged from Wei State, Tuoba Desert Khan's heart moved:
These things seem to have originally been produced in the Han Dynasty, right?
Unexpectedly, Wei Guo would be willing to exchange all the good things in order to win over Ke Han.

In fact, if you really want these things, you can also go to Pingcheng.

But to be honest, Wei Guo seems to be much more generous than Han Guo.

Not only does it give more than Han, but it is also better than Han.

So in fact, I can't blame you for choosing to trade with Wei Guo...

Ok?
Pingcheng?

Tuoba Desert Khan seemed to have a vague idea flashing in front of him.

At this time, the people on the other side of the bonfire also saw Tuoba Desert Khan, and someone raised a wine bag and greeted him loudly:

"Eldest Prince, come and drink together!"

At this time, Tuoba Desert Khan finally grasped the thought that he almost slipped away, he didn't notice someone calling him at all, he turned around suddenly, and ran towards the sweat tent again.

The person holding the wine bag is Karasuma King Kuxian, not the Xianbei people's headquarters, and can only be regarded as a new crowd.

But Tuoba Liwei paid great attention to his family's vote, otherwise, it would not be possible to install the felt tent near the sweat tent.

At this time, instead of getting a response from the eldest prince, he was humiliated in front of everyone.

Coupled with the fact that he drank alcohol, his face suddenly became a little uncomfortable, and his face became ugly.

"Hahaha, that elder brother of mine has always been aloof and doesn't like to be in contact with strangers. King Kuxian, don't blame him, don't blame him! Come on, I invite King Kuxian to drink this wine tonight, and I have the right to make amends!"

A man walked over from nowhere and said to Ku Xian with a big smile. At the same time, he held up the wine bag in his hand, took a big sip, and handed it to King Ku Xian.

Karasuma King Kuxian, who felt that he was humiliated by Tuoba Desert Khan, forced a smile on his face when he saw this man make amends:
"Second prince, don't dare to be, dare not be! It should be me who respects you."

In the sweat tent, Tuoba Desert Khan faced Tuoba Liwei who was a little astonished that he had gone and returned, and asked directly:

"My lord, I want to go to Han again!"

"Huh?" Tuoba Liwei, who was about to go out to drink and eat meat with the tribal adults, couldn't help being startled when he heard his son's words:
"My son, what does this mean?"

Tuoba Desert Khan took a breath:

"My lord, let me just listen to my child, in order to win over the tribes on the prairie, the Han Kingdom deliberately set up a discussion field in Pingcheng."

"When I was in Pingcheng last time, I heard that many nearby tribes have defected to the Han State and received preferential treatment from the Han State."

"It's just that at that time, my boy was only thinking about how to get Han to recognize us as the lords of the grasslands and deal with us, but he didn't care about asking about the details of this matter."

At this time, the deacon next to him spoke in a dark voice:

"The meaning of the eldest prince is that we, like those tribes, take refuge in the Han country, rely on their noses, and hand over the lives of the tribe to the Han people?"

"of course not!"

Tuoba Desert Khan waved his hands again and again, explaining repeatedly:
"What I mean is, if this is true, does it mean that the Han Kingdom can't tolerate the barbarians on the grassland? Don't we have to be enemies of the Han Kingdom?"

When Tuoba Desert Khan heard his son's words, he immediately frowned. He wanted to say "absurd!"

In the battle of Chibi, Sun and Liu joined forces to fight against Cao, so that the three kingdoms behind could stand together.

If Sun Cao joins forces to destroy Liu, maybe Cao Cao will turn around and destroy Sun Quan?

But just as he was about to say something, another thought suddenly occurred to him: What if it's not Cao Cao but Cao Pi?
I heard that Sun Quan is the King of Wei and Wu...

The black-clothed deacon has been with Tuoba Liwei for a long time, and he knows his temperament well. Now seeing the change in his expression, he knows that his heart to resist the Han is not firm yet.

So he took the initiative to say:

"Kehan, since the eldest prince has such a heart, it is very commendable to take the initiative to invite Ying. If you can find a way out for us because of this, it might not be a good thing."

When Tuoba Liwei heard this, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief:

"Since the deacon said so, then my son should go and inquire again."

When Tuoba Desert Khan heard this, his face suddenly became happy:

"The child obeys the orders of the adults!"

The deacon in black also nodded with a smile, looking very pleased with what the eldest prince did.

It's just that when he came out of the sweat tent and returned to his tent, his face immediately became gloomy.

He could only hear him muttering:
"If you are sensible, I see that you have the blood of the Han family in your body, so I can help you to ascend to the throne."

"If you are determined to join the enemy, even if you are a descendant of the Han family, you will have to kill your relatives righteously."

"And Dou Bin, you've lived long enough. I could have waited until you were dead for the sake of your enmity against the Han Kingdom, but it's a pity that time doesn't wait for me!"

"Don't blame me, if you want to blame, blame your two sons for being too useless!"
