The Maojin knife from the late Jin Dynasty

Chapter 222 The End of Tuoba Yilu

It can be said that after Tuoba Yilu opened the mutual trade with Youzhou, the support for Tuoba Yilu within the entire Tuoba clan suddenly increased a lot.

Because mutual trade with Youzhou can bring significant benefits and development to the Tuoba tribe, and for any society, development can basically solve most of the problems.

In addition, there was a big fight because of Liu Kun, which made all the major forces around him lick their wounds.

As the external environment becomes more relaxed, it is inevitable that internal conflicts will naturally be put on the agenda at this time.

For example, Tuoba Yilu favored his younger son Tuoba Biyan and wanted to abolish Tuoba Liuxiu and let Tuoba Biyan inherit the Tuoba tribe.

For this reason, Tuoba Yilu began to persecute Tuoba Liuxiu step by step. First, he sent Tuoba Liuxiu to Xinping City and left the center of power of the Tuoba tribe. Then he deposed Tuoba Liuxiu's mother. Support Tuoba Biyan's mother.

Regarding this, Tuoba Liuxiu gritted his teeth, but still chose to endure it.

After all, Tuoba Yilu had almost created the current myth of Tuoba tribe's invincibility, which meant that Tuoba Sixth Cultivator really did not disobey Tuoba Yilu's courage.

This scene was seen by Mo Han, but he did not remind Tuoba Yilu that doing this was a recipe for disaster.

There was no way, Mo Han was originally Liu Kun's subordinate. This time Tuoba Yi Lu protected Liu Kun and took advantage of the situation to force Mo Han to become his subordinate.

And Liu Kun took the initiative to persuade Mo Han, which was more like a Japanese action movie repaying a husband's debt.

Because of this, it is somewhat unbelievable for Mo Hanruo to say that he is completely loyal to Tuoba Yilu.

However, Tuoba Yilu really valued Mohan, so after Liu Tai traded with the Tuoba tribe, Tuoba Yilu handed over the business affairs to Mohan and asked him to be responsible for dealing with Youzhou merchants.

Mo Hanbu said that he was loyal to Tuoba Yilu, but at least he did his job conscientiously, but at most he didn't do unnecessary things.

Therefore, even if Mohan saw that Tuoba Yilu's behavior might cause chaos in the Tuoba tribe, Mohan had no intention of intervening. On the contrary, Mohan worked harder and almost stayed in the trade area. , for emergency evacuation.

However, Mo Han didn't say much, but people like Wei Xiong and Ji Dan who had been with Tuoba Yilu for a long time came forward to persuade Tuoba Yilu, saying that abolishing the elder and establishing the younger was a disaster rather than a blessing. Please be careful on behalf of the king!
However, Tuoba Yilu shook his head and said, "On the grassland, the only thing that matters is strength since ancient times, so there is no need to worry!"

In fact, Wei Xiong and Ji Dan discovered that only the Han family seemed to be worried about Tuoba Yilu's actions.

No tribal leaders or centurions on the grassland had any objection to Tuoba Yilu's decision.

In this regard, Wei Xiong and Ji Dan understood that although they had lived on this grassland for several years, Tuoba Yilu also valued them and others and were willing to obey their decision to recruit more Jin people.

But the Tuoba tribe was still the Tuoba tribe on the grassland, not the Han court that they thought they were familiar with.

Tuoba Yilu values ​​himself and others. That is because Tuoba Yilu values ​​himself and others personally, but it only involves tradition and rules and regulations. If he and others want to use the Han family view to substitute themselves into it, they will notice their behavior. Somewhat ridiculous.

In fact, it was almost common for people of foreign races to lack historical background during the period of Wuhu's chaos in China.

For example, the rise of Liu Cong and the succession of Shi Le's descendants were due to insufficient Chineseization. In their bones, they all promoted the grassland survival method of relying on the strong.

But this way of survival determines that when they are strong, they can indeed do whatever they want, but as long as they are weak, it becomes natural for others to rob you of everything.

Liu Tai is different from foreigners. Although his bottom line is very low, Liu Tai still has a bottom line.

Now Liu Tai has the power to defeat Shi Le, but Liu Tai has been waiting for a politically correct reason.

Just for the reason of revenge for his uncle, after Liu Cong sent diplomats to exchange Wang Mi's body from Shi Le and handed it to Liu Tai for burial, this reason no longer existed, because he used it as a reason to attack Shi Le again. That is disloyal to Liu Cong.

Even if Liu Tai had the intention to rebel, it would at least be to the point where the king forced his ministers to rebel, rather than letting his excuse fall into Liu Cong's hands.

The object of Liu Tai's political confrontation was not Shi Le, but Liu Cong.

As long as Liu Tai gets political reasons from Liu Cong, Liu Tai will immediately raise troops.

Of course, if Shi Le thought he had found some reason for his anger and resentment, he would do the same.

Shi Le also understood this very well, so Shi Le was very restrained towards Liu Tai, and would never take action against Liu Tai if he was not completely sure.

Liu Tai understands the political logic of his actions and understands that people are political animals and must stand firm.

But Tuoba Yilu didn't know that. Now he had forced Liu Yao and Shi Le back, and then exchanged favors with Liu Tai. At least in Tuoba Yilu's view, he alone had suppressed the three generals of the Huns and Han Dynasty, and he was Quite remarkable.

Therefore, I can do whatever I want. I feel that Tuoba Sixth Cultivation is an eyesore, and I want to make Tuoba Biyan his successor. What's the problem?
This grassland should originally revolve around you!

To be honest, Tuoba Yilu's thoughts would at best lead to further damage to the relationship between him and Tuoba Sixth Cultivator.

But it's not as if Tuoba Sixth Cultivator and Tuoba Yilu will break up. After all, Tuoba Sixth Cultivator respects and fears Tuoba Yilu.

Immediately afterwards, Tuoba Yilu began to make further progress. For example, Tuoba Liuxiu had a well-bred horse that could travel five hundred miles a day. Tuoba Yilu asked for the horse and gave it to Tuoba Biyan. Tuoba Liuxiu's heart was bleeding. But he still didn't dare to disobey his father.

Not long after, Tuoba Sixth Cultivator came to see Tuoba Yilu as usual, and Tuoba Yilu asked him to salute Tuoba Biyan.

Ba Liuxiu didn't agree, and even broke up with Tuoba Yilu on bad terms, but in the end he took the opportunity to plead guilty, but he hid in Xinping City, since he really didn't want to come back anyway.

Why are you back here, kowtow to Tuoba Biyan?

Tuoba Yilu saw that Tuoba Sixth Cultivator somewhat admitted his mistake, so he first planned to let him go.

Because he wanted to increase Tuoba Biyan's prestige first, he wanted Tuoba Biyan to call him his chariot, send his own attendants, fly his own flag, and go out on parades in his place. This was considered a hard work to pave the way for his youngest son. .

And Tuoba Biyan is also a fool. Tuoba Yilu means that you, Tuoba Biyan, should go to the surrounding tribes first to let people in other tribes recognize your status, but Tuoba Biyan immediately Then he ran towards where Tuoba Sixth Cultivator was.

Tuoba Yilu is the Khan of the Tuoba tribe, and his chariot and ceremonial guards represent his authority.

So when Tuoba Liuxiu saw it from a distance, he knelt down without hesitation and bowed his head in front of the chariot.As for Tuoba Liuxiu's conscious behavior, he immediately heard Tuoba Biyan on the chariot say, "Pingshengpingshen, Tuoba Liuxiu, for the sake of you kneeling down so piously, I will leave you [-] yuan in the future. Every household is looking for food!"

When Tuoba Liuxiu heard this, he raised his head and saw his younger brother Tuoba Biyan.

At that moment, Tuoba Sixth Cultivator felt extremely humiliated and even wanted to draw a sword against Tuoba Biyan.

But the remaining reason made Tuoba Liuxiu choose to be patient. He didn't want to stay in this place for a second.

So Tuoba Sixth Cultivator chose to leave angrily under this humiliation, not wanting to say a word to Tuoba Biyan.

When Tuoba Biyan saw this scene, he hummed a few times and continued to drive the chariot to inspect Tuoba's tribe.

Tuoba Liuxiu returned to his tent and began to drink wine, but at this time, Diao Ying came out with a smile on his lips.

"I don't listen to you, so are you here to laugh at me?" Tuoba Liuxiu said fiercely to Diao Ying.

"First Prince, what you hate is not my smile, but Tuoba Biyan's ridicule." Diao Ying said,

"General Shi Le's promise has always been there. As long as you, the great prince, are willing to accept our friendship, the grassland will be yours!"

When Tuoba Liuxiu heard what Diao Ying said, he was naturally even more shaken. However, Tuoba Yilu's pressure, Tuoba Yilu's power, and even Tuoba Yilu being his father made Tuoba Sixth Cultivation found it difficult to make up his mind.

Diao Ying did not force him, because he had already discovered that as long as Tuoba Yilu wanted to establish Tuoba Biyan as khan, sooner or later Tuoba Sixth Cultivation Society would be forced to rebel.

Therefore, Diao Ying did not rush, but just made his own preparations.

In fact, just as Diao Ying expected, Tuoba Sixth Cultivator chose to leave because of humiliation.

After Tuoba Biyan returned, he said to Tuoba Yilu, "Father, these days you let me serve as your chariot to patrol the grassland. Only my brother left after seeing the chariot. His speed was even faster than that of Yan Zhui. superior!"

"What!" Tuoba Yilu couldn't help but become furious when he heard Tuoba Biyan's words.

But Tuoba Yilu still had Shao Xu's sanity and asked the honor guard five. The people in the honor guard knew that Tuoba Yilu meant Tuoba Biyan, so they knew how to choose them.

Besides, what Tuoba Yilu asked was whether Tuoba Liuxiu left after seeing the chariot arriving. This is a fact.

As for more details, Tuoba Yilu needs to inquire in detail, but Tuoba Yilu doesn't have this skill.

Tuoba Yilu couldn't help but feel extremely angry, feeling that Tuoba Sixth Cultivator had truly ignored his authority.

You must know that for those who follow the law of survival of the weak and the strong, no one is allowed to dare to challenge authority.

Because no one knows better than the person who stands at the highest point of the rules of survival. In a society where the strong is the only one and the law of the jungle follows, if you are weak, you will be devoured. Therefore, the person who stands at the highest point is afraid that he will step down from the highest position.

Anyone who dares to challenge his authority will be severely punished, so that no one dares to offend.

The next second, Tuoba Yilu's reprimand and recruitment of Tuoba Sixth Cultivator were immediately delivered to Tuoba Sixth Cultivator.

Diao Ying entered the camp with a smile, and understood everything after looking at the recruitment order for Tuoba Sixth Cultivator.

Tuoba Sixth Cultivator still allowed himself to come in at this point. Obviously, with Tuoba Yilu pressing every step of the way, Tuoba Sixth Cultivator had no choice.

"It's still the same sentence. The big man and General Shi Le will always be the eldest prince's friends. I want the eldest prince to nod!" Diao Ying looked at Tuoba Liuxiu and said these words calmly.

Tuoba Liuxiu looked at Diao Ying, took a deep breath, and said calmly:

"If I refuse my father's call, my father will eventually lead the Xianbei elite to attack me, and I won't be able to defeat him.

If you are really prepared to be friends with me, then you have to use the chips that allow me to turn defeat into victory! "

Diao Ying smiled calmly and said, "If you say that you will come in with thousands of troops and horses, that is naturally a lie. But if you only provide a batch of powerful crossbows, I believe that it can still have some effect on the eldest prince, no, it should be you, the Khan." !”

"What?!" Tuoba Sixth Cultivator heard Diao Ying's words and couldn't help showing a bit of surprise, "You have a crossbow?!"

"Didn't your tribe have an exchange of trade with Youzhou? It is not difficult to transport some parts of the strong crossbows and then put them together. After all, the grassland is different from the Central Plains, and the management of the strong crossbows is not strict. !" Diao Ying said.

"Give me these powerful crossbows!" Tuoba Liuxiu said to Diao Ying, "I will give you what you want!"

"Thank you, eldest prince, no, Tuoba Khan made it happen!" Diao Ying smiled and said politely to Tuoba Liu.

When Tuoba Liuxiu heard the words "diao Ying Tuoba Khan", for the first time he felt that he was no longer the Tuoba Liuxiu who wanted to crawl in front of Tuoba Yilu, but that he wanted to become Tuoba Liu who was in charge of his own destiny. Khan!

Soon, Tuoba Yilu saw that he had summoned Tuoba Sixth Cultivator, but he dared not come, and Tuoba Yilu became furious.

He does not allow anyone to dare to touch his authority, because for him, who stands at the apex of grassland rights, anyone who interferes and offends his authority should die.

Even though this man was his son, he immediately led the Xianbei cavalry away!

He wanted to personally capture Tuoba Sixth Cultivator and let him know clearly what price he would have to pay for disobeying him!
Facing the arrival of Tuoba Yilu, Tuoba Liuxiu was full of nervousness, but he still bravely stood up and scolded Tuoba Yilu, scolding Tuoba Yilu for abandoning the elder and establishing the young, scolding Tuoba Yilu He killed his mother and scolded Tuoba Yilu for being partial.

Tuoba Sixth Cultivator pointed his riding whip at Tuoba Yilu and shouted angrily:
"Father, I call you Father for the last time. Come out and tell me yourself whether I told half a lie."

Tuoba Yilu felt a little ashamed in his heart, but he still walked out of the army and said, "Sixth Cultivation..."

The next second, dozens of crossbow arrows were shot from Tuoba Liuxiu's military formation. In an instant, Tuoba Yilu completely became a hornet's nest, and then he and his horse fell directly to the ground.

Tuoba Sixth Cultivator said without hesitation, "Kill me. From today on, I am the Khan of the Tuoba clan!"

The army under Tuoba Sixth Cultivator no longer had any fear. Under the leadership of Tuoba Sixth Cultivator, they directly killed the leaderless Xianbei elite!
