Three Kingdoms

Chapter 3036 A new method among the old methods

In the temporary royal court built by Qifu Hegan, people from various tribes arrived one after another.

In the Xianbei series, there are the Xianbei tribe, the Xianbei Suotou tribe, the Yuwen tribe and the Duan tribe in the east of Xianbei, and the Mohu tribe who later changed his surname to Murong.

In the Wuhuan series, there are Kou Loudun, Hu Liuye, Lu Xi, etc.

In Mobei Zahu there are Yinalou, Futou, Suonu, Qubeiwang, Shaobei, etc.

There were dozens, hundreds, or thousands of people from these tribes. They gathered in this area, showing an unusual sense of excitement.

These tribes may not all sincerely welcome Qifu Heqian, but just like many noble families in the Three Kingdoms betting in many ways, since they are on the gambling table, it is still an opportunity to get a card from the bottom...

As for getting a card, whether to follow or fold, it all happens after you have to pay an ante first and sit on the card table.

Densely packed tents were set up one on the left and one on the right, as if pimples suddenly broke out on the face in the desert, distributed high and low in this area.

New and old friends gathered together, eating horse meat, drinking horse milk, chatting from all over the world, and laughing heartlessly, as if they didn't care if the sky fell...

Do you really not care?

Fake.

Among the gathered tribesmen, the vast majority had no intention of returning alive.

At least you can't go back empty-handed.

Because many tribes in Mobei are actually facing increasingly cold natural threats. Just like in the Han Dynasty, many farmers and women in the Han Dynasty chose not to have children or abandoned the children they gave birth to in the face of rising taxes and expenditures. In the desert, there are also people who use the "excess" population through war. plans to cut back.

The tribes in these deserts may not be able to consciously control and reduce the old, weak, sick and disabled through biological and biochemical means like the later generations of Emperors of the United States, so as to maintain a high unemployment rate and reduce labor wages to boost the economy. But these tribes also have primitive instincts that make them know to reduce some populations...

Of course, if these people who go out to fight can bring back some trophies, it will be an unexpected surprise. If not, then where they died in battle will become their burial ground, so these people are not afraid of death, and are even a little happy. To meet death. In the hearts of these Hu people, they are fighting for their tribe and their families, and their death is for the survival of their tribe and family.

This belief, passed down from generation to generation, among tribes with relatively low knowledge and almost zero education, can easily form a closed space similar to later MLM brainwashing and cult preaching, and continue to instill specious ideas into the tribe. inside everyone's head.

Qifu Heqian received the latest news.

The Rilu family members and some members of the Bald Hair Tribe reported that after their initial contact with the Han people, they had withdrawn towards the Black Stone Forest. However, the Han people seemed to be very hesitant to pursue the pursuit and still stayed in place without any follow-up actions.

On the other side, the people from Gujin reported that they were in further contact with Youbei Cao's army. Youbei Cao's army was also moving very slowly, stopping every day. If this continues, it may be difficult for the Han people on both sides to meet as planned, and Gu Jin couldn't say that he was too anxious and urged, so he asked Qi Fu Heqian to come up with an idea...

The Mohu tribe and the Yuwen tribe sent people back to report that they had arrived at Ningwotai in Dayan Mountain in advance according to Qifu Heqian's order, and were ready to outflank the Han people's retreat in the west.

In addition, the Chile tribe sent to monitor the Jiankun and Rouran tribes found that some people from Jiankun and Rouran were crossing the Yinma River and moving towards the Han people in the west, possibly to fight with the Han people in the west. . However, there was still no movement from the large Han army in the west. The leader of the Chile people, Chile Juxu, sent someone to ask, what should be done now?

As for the performance of the Han people in the west, Qifu Heqian couldn't figure it out for a while. He and Su Li discussed repeatedly, but still could not understand why the Han people in the west did not dispatch a large force, but only sent an obviously smaller forward to station in the west of the Black Stone Forest, and even did not pay much attention to the bait sent by Qifu Hegan. Shangxin, lazily motionless.

Qifu Heqian's plan is of course to let the Han people in the west and the Han people in Youbei fight first so that they can reap the benefits. But the problem is that if the Han people on both sides move slowly, then Qifu Heqian's plan There will be loopholes. In other words, it is possible that they will be forced to join the battle group, or they will have to suffer losses in advance, and if the Han people on both sides discover Qifu Hegan's intentions, they may even raid Qifu Hegan's nest. Poke the chrysanthemum begging Fu He to dry it.

"Are they Han Chinese from the west or east? Do you have any other concerns, or are there any follow-up moves?" Faced with the current situation, Su Li's age did not seem to bring any intellectual blessing.

Qi Fuhe glanced at Su Li but did not speak immediately.

He kept Suli by his side not because he liked Suli, but because Suli was the oldest among all the major tribal leaders, so he was relatively "safer". Qifu Heqian hoped that after this battle, he could successfully ascend to the top and become the Great Demon King of Xianbei, instead of being beaten by a group of warriors on the eve of sitting on the throne, let alone being backstabbed by the ministers assisting the kingdom at the critical moment. As long as Suli's children are controlled, Suli will naturally become Qifu Hegan's best assistant minister.

Erecting the old horse bone of Suli will also help unite the various tribes in Xianbei.

But all of this has a premise.

Defeat the Han people.

"If there is a follow-up, it means to reserve an army..." Qifu Hegan focused his attention on the current situation, but our scouts have been observing this route and there is no Han cavalry within a hundred miles. . 』

Su Li frowned and was silent. His instinct told him that the Han people were very cunning, and abnormal behaviors often represented some kind of conspiracy of the Han people. However, the Han people in the east and the Han people in the west obviously had hatred and conflicts when they met. There is no doubt that conflicts will occur, so there is indeed nothing wrong with Qifu Hegan's plan.

So what's the problem?

Su Li had no experience in commanding such a complicated battle situation. Before his strength had weakened, he preferred to carry the battle ax and fight in person instead of sitting behind and gesticulating.

The Xianbei people have no written language.

The absence of writing is almost equivalent to the absence of an education system and the power of cultural inheritance. This makes the Xianbei people's shortcomings in this area exposed when they encounter major problems.

Xianbei has only one native language, which is probably a variant of the Xiongnu language. Occasionally there are some hieroglyphic-like characters, which are not systematic. When conveying any important events, at most they would draw a few symbols on a wooden board or a piece of sheepskin, and the so-called wise man in the tribe who is responsible for conveying the message, or a smarter person, would take the wooden board or sheepskin to translate. Tell it to the tribal leader.

Yes, even if you have a native language, you still need a translator.

It's like the same sentence "偁嬢卡狠". Is it a greeting or a curse?

In this primitive civilization, the way to survive is often to rely on experience or intuition to do things, including fighting. Therefore, Qifu Heqian knows how to package himself and is really a little wise. People who are self-taught without any teacher are often worshiped and trusted by ordinary Xianbei people as half gods. .

The reason why it is "half" is because there are still many mountains to climb in Qifu Hegan, and there is still a long way to go to reach the level of a hero similar to Tan Shihuai. At that time, Xianbei gathered many smart people around Tan Shihuai to advise Tan Shihuai, but now there is only Lao Suli around Qifu Heqian, and the others are either worried or not smart.

Lao Suli had no choice, so all the pressure was put on Qifu Heqian. Maybe if that cunning guy Gu Jin is around, he might have some ideas, but Gu Jin is a Wuhuan person after all, and there is some gap between him and the Xianbei people after all.

Qifu Hegan felt depressed, so he walked out of the tent to relax, and then suddenly saw Yu Zhudan.

Yu Zhutan was among a group of Xianbei people, shouting loudly and waving a sword so brightly that it looked like splashing water. The Xianbei soldiers watching around burst into cheers.

Qi Fuheqian's heart moved, and he raised his head slightly to signal to his guards, "Go and call Yu Zhutan over..."

After a while, Yu Zhutan came, walked up to Qifu Heqian, stroked his chest and saluted.

"Your skills are pretty good..." Qi Fuhe said with a dry smile.

Yu Zhutan laughed, "I'm just a little better than the average person, but I can't compare with the Great Khan." 』

Qifu Heqian didn't say anything more on this topic. He motioned for Yu Zhutan to follow him on the tour and told Yu Zhutan about his current worries.

Yu Zhutan's heart was filled with hatred for the Han people, and naturally he tried his best to get Qifu Hegan to fight with the Han people, so he said: "The purpose of the Great Khan is to make the Han people in the west and the east fight. Get up... So now that the Han people in the east have moved out, whether they walk slowly or fast, sooner or later they will encounter the Han people in the west, right? So now there is no need to care about what the Han people think. Just attack the forward team of Han people in the west first, surround them as quickly as possible, and eat them. Then these Han people in the west will inevitably move, and We also have better reasons to urge the Han people in the east! When the Han people on both sides start fighting, we will surround them from behind... Hahaha! By then, in the whole desert, who can be the opponent of the Great Khan? ! 』

The more Yu Zhutan talked, the more excited he became, and when he came to the last part, he almost started dancing.

The Xianbei soldiers in the surrounding area did not actually hear clearly what Yu Zhutan said. They only heard Yu Zhutan's last few words, saying "Who can be the opponent of the Great Khan?", and they suddenly felt very sad. It makes sense, and the Xianbei soldiers who responded quickly also shouted following Yu Zhutan's words...

"The Great Khan is invincible!" 』

"The Great Khan is victorious!" 』

First a small group of people were shouting, then a large group of people were shouting, and then everyone around them was shouting.

The excited Xianbei people opened their voices, roared, and vented.

People in the desert seem to have loud voices and full of emotions...

It doesn't work if you don't raise your voice. In ancient times, there were no mobile phones, the place was large, and the distance was far away. If you wanted to say something, even if you were depressed, you had to shout loudly to make the other party hear you. Suddenly, all the Xianbei people felt their hearts surging, their animal blood... well, their blood was boiling, and they wished they could immediately jump on their horses and gallop on the battlefield.

Qifu Heqian was infected by the high emotions of the surrounding Xianbei people, and his eyes filled with excitement.

Lao Suli had just returned to his tent and lay down, touching his old waist. Not long after he heard the noise, he quickly got up again and hurried over to see Qi Fuhe surrounded by the Xianbei crowd. If you don't know what's going on, you won't know what's going on.

"Tomorrow morning, we will rush to the Black Stone Forest!" Encircle and annihilate the Han Chinese in the west! 』

When Qifu Heqian saw Su Li, he said loudly.

Su Li was stunned for a moment, "Great Khan, but people from the Horse Horn Tribe and Coyote Tribe will be here tomorrow, and some tribes from farther away are still coming. Why don't we wait?" 』

Qi Fu Hegan waved his hand, "No wait!" I sent some people to stay here. Once they arrive, tell them to rush to the Black Stone Forest! 』

Qifu Heqian looked at the excited Xianbei soldiers around him and felt that his military morale was useful, so he loudly said, "Eat some of the Han people in the west!" The Han people in the west will be lured out by us, and then we will take them to fight with the Han people in the east! After this battle, both the Han people in the east and the Han people in the west will be finished! By then we will have many trophies to allow our son to spend this winter comfortably! 』

The surrounding Xianbei people cheered involuntarily, as if they had obtained the spoils Qifu Heqian had mentioned.

Qifu Heqian stood in the center of the crowd with his head raised and chest raised. The expression on his face was both serious and somewhat proud. His eyes revealed excitement and expectation, and his whole body exuded confidence and fighting spirit.

But Su Li on the side had her mouth closed and her head slightly lowered. No one could clearly see Su Li's face and expression...

In Yuyang City, Cao Chun got the latest information and couldn't help but excitedly shouted, "Okay!" Governor Xiahou is now involved in the Taiyuan soldiers. Even if Zhao Zilong is in the northern region, he has to look south! You can send Marquis Gao Jun to lead 300 troops as the vanguard to join Xianbei! March into Changshan! 』

Why should we be a pioneer?

On the one hand, it is because of Xianbei's request, and on the other hand, it is because he is afraid that Xianbei "doesn't understand" where Changshan is...

The messenger immediately found Gao Junhou and conveyed Cao Chun's instructions.

Gao Junhou is Gao Ai.

Gao Ai was from Youzhou in northern Hebei Province. He had joined thousands of people as bandits in northern Jizhou and Youzhou. Later, when Cao Cao came, he saw that the situation was not good, so he put down his butcher knife and surrendered to Cao Cao. Cao Cao did not kill Gao Ai, but He was placed under Cao Chun's command.

The reason why Cao Chun sent Gao Ai to the Xianbei tribe was because Gao Ai actually knew some nonsense. After all, those who can serve as thieves in the land of Youzhou must have some connection with the barbarians.

When Gao Ai received Cao Chun's order, he was sitting on a stone and chewing grass roots in a depressed manner.

He felt that defecting to Cao Jun might be a wrong choice.

The more I think about it, the more I regret it.

He was even less happy than when he was a bandit in the past.

Although I was poor when I was a bandit, I would sometimes eat one meal without the next, but it was not like now, where every move was restricted. He felt that since he surrendered to Cao Cao, he had fewer smiles and found that he was becoming more and more withdrawn and liked to live alone. He even felt that Cao Chun really lacked the heroic spirit of a Northland man, and was full of bad intentions like a sinister villain. But thinking about it, it seemed inevitable. After all, Cao Chun was not born in the Northland, but was born in the Northland. Growing up in the Central Plains area where there was originally a lot of care and calculation.

Thinking of this, he felt a little frustrated, because he knew that his head couldn't play with these bad guys.

Cao Chun is not good at fighting, but when it comes to conspiracy, there are not many northern men in Youzhou who can outsmart him. Now that the order was given, Gao Ai had no other choice. He ordered his troops and headed north. Then he crossed Yanshan Mountain and met the roving Xianbei cavalry.

Cao Chun killed many people.

Everyone knows that there may be spies here, but most of them are ordinary people, but Cao Chun doesn't care.

Gao Ai could only not care...

As the barrier of Yuyang, Yanshan Mountain cannot be compared with the Qinling Mountains, nor can it be compared with the Taihang Mountains, let alone the Kunlun Mountains, Tianshan Mountains and other mountains. The only one that can be compared is perhaps Taishan Mountain. Climbing Mount Tai and minimizing the world, climbing Yanshan and minimizing the North China Plain, but in fact it is just the same thing. In the late Ming Dynasty, although there was also the factor that the defense line in the northern part of the Ming Dynasty was really poor, the Jianzhou Jurchens could come in and out at will, and go around and around, which is really not worthy of the name.

Su Li got the news and came to greet Gao Ai.

"Be well, old friend!" 』

Gao Ai laughed and said hello to Su Li.

After leaving Yanshan, Gao Ai seemed to have regained some of the joy of being a bandit.

Su Li also laughed, stepped forward to hold Gao Ai's hand, and then the two patted each other's backs to show their affection.

"You came just in time, the Great Khan is preparing to send troops. Su Li said with a smile, but a different look flashed in his eyes.

"What? Gao Ai was stunned for a moment, "Is the Great Khan preparing to send troops to Changshan New City?" 』

Su Li laughed, "No, the Great Khan is preparing to attack the Black Stone Forest." 』

"Black Stone Forest?" Gao Ai's eyes widened, "How could it be the Black Stone Forest?" This...this black stone forest is in the north! Changshan New Town is in the south! Did the Great Khan say he didn’t look at the map? 』

Su Li said: "Of course the Great Khan knows where the Black Stone Forest and Changshan New City are... Of course the Great Khan has the Great Khan's idea. Haha, those of us who are subordinates can only obey orders... right? ? 』

Gao Ai looked at Su Li and said, "My general asked me to lead the Great Khan to Changshan New City, not to the Black Stone Forest... I need to report this matter to the general..."

Su Li waved her hands indifferently, "This matter is not a secret, everyone knows... Who you want to tell, it is your business... It has nothing to do with me, and you don't need to tell me... But as old friends, it's still I would like to advise you, don’t disobey the Great Khan’s wishes, otherwise the Great Khan may hang your head on a large scroll..."

Gao Ai was silent for a moment and nodded slightly, "I may understand a little bit..."

Su Li smiled, "As long as you understand..."
