The Maojin knife from the late Jin Dynasty

Chapter 315 Xianbei is in trouble

After all, snow disasters are relatively rare disasters. With timely relief, the situation soon stabilized.

For Liu Tai, as long as the north of the Yellow River can stabilize, next year, he will probably be able to send troops to Luoyang and even Chang'an, thus successfully regaining his old capital.

However, the snowstorm in the Central Plains area could only be suppressed. At this time, Duan Shujun and Duan Wenyuan from the Duan tribe sent Liu Tai a memorial about the situation in Liaodong, which made Liu Tai frown.

Liu Tai handed the memorial he received to Chu Hui, and then asked him to circulate it.

To put it simply, Murong Xin proclaimed himself the governor of Pingzhou and was responsible for all things in Pingzhou. If it was just the Hu people who claimed to be the governor of Pingzhou during the troubled times, Liu Tai didn't care much. After all, he did such things in troubled times. There are so many foreign races.

But Murong Xin actually dared to appoint a large number of Han staff to build the imperial court system, with Pei Yi and You Sui as the long history, Pei Kai as the Sima, Han Shou as the farewell, Yang Dan as the military counselor and wine sacrificer, and Cui Tao as the chief register. Huang Hong and Zheng Lin participated in the military affairs and made Zihuan the heir apparent. They offered Pingyuan Liuzan as a sacrificial wine so that Murong Huang could share the karma with all living beings. When Murong Xin was free, he even came to listen in person.

It can be said that Murong Xin took a very crucial step on the road to Sinicization. After all, Pingzhou, that part of the Korean Peninsula, more or less made Liu Tai nervous.

After all, in history, Goguryeo delayed the Sui Dynasty to death. Even Li Shimin personally conquered Goguryeo, and it was not until Li Zhi's era that Goguryeo was taken down.

Before the establishment of the Grand Canal, Goguryeo was actually not important to China. However, after the establishment of the Grand Canal could smoothly connect the north and the south and China became a whole, the importance of Northeast Asia became highlighted.

Basically all the unified Chinese dynasties suffered national crises, and the crisis was basically the first to occur on the Korean Peninsula.

In the Tang Dynasty, the people of Youzhou and Hebei directly opposed the Guanzhong aristocrats, not to mention it. However, in the Ming Dynasty, the Manchus first took over North Korea and then entered Shanhaiguan. Similarly, the Sino-Japanese Sino-Japanese Sino-Japanese War completely wiped out the last vestiges of the Qing Dynasty. Take off your face.

Whether China can stand as an independent and powerful country in the world, the peninsula where North Korea is located is the most critical gateway.

Rabbit is also seeing this. Although he only has a bad hand, he still firmly fights Yingjiang on the 38th line.

Because Rabbit knows very well that if he does not have a strategic buffer, his own land will become a strategic buffer.

After Chu Hui, Xi Canjun, Wen Qiao, Yang Man, Xun Chuo and others read the report, it was Yang Man who finally spoke:

"Murong Xuan claims to be the governor of Pingzhou, but he has a disobedient heart. We need to beat him hard!"

"Zu Yan, what do you think?" Liu Tai said curiously after hearing Yang Man's words.

Yangman also opened the folding fan in his hand, covered his face, and then said confidently, "Send an army to conquer it?"

Xun Chuo decisively pulled this guy aside and said, "When you have time, go and comfort the Yanzhou family, so you won't get involved in this matter."

To be honest, Xun Chuo most often recorded Liu Tai's words and deeds, so he knew Liu Tai's attitude towards Murong Xin very well.

That is, the Liaodong Peninsula is really not a place for humans. Even if it is conquered, the cost of maintenance is very high. This is the reason why Liu Tai has not conquered Pingzhou.

After all, I am not Shi Le, and I can't kill all the foreign races. Even if I kill them, there won't be any new races in a few years, which makes it uneconomical for me to vigorously conquer Pingzhou.

At least Liu Tai's tendency is that before taking back Guanzhong, Shuzhong and the area south of the Yangtze River, the land in Pingzhou is not very important. The most important thing is that after the conquest, the sacrifice must be greater than the reward, which makes Liu Tai less interested.

But no one denies that it is Pingzhou that has the Murong tribe, so Liu Tai still left the fleet led by Tian Huang in the Bohai Sea. If Youzhou is really threatened, then Tian Huang's troops will come out to solve it. .

Therefore, the existence of the Murong tribe has more or less restrained part of the strength of the Han Dynasty.

But now relying on the Bohai Bay, the navy can contain the opponent. If Pingzhou is really conquered, then he will need to deploy troops on the road. The cost, at least in this era, the cost of the navy is always lower than the cost of the army.

"I feel that after we have raised Duan Xianbei for so long, we are going to give it a try!" Chu Hui said calmly.

"What do you think?" Liu Tai said with a little curiosity after hearing Chu Hui's words.

"No matter what Murong Xin calls himself, we can still canonize him to Duan Shujun." Chu Hui said,

"After all, if Duan Shujun wants to secure his position, then his self-proclaimed destiny will naturally need to be solved by him!"

"I understand, Duan Shujun probably meant this when he gave us this memorial!" Liu Tai shook his head and said,

"Forget it, it's easy to check Duan Shujun's Duan clan, let's see if he can secure this position!"

When Liu Tai said this, his eyes gradually became sharper and he said: "However, whether the Duan tribe wins or the Murong tribe wins, it is not a good thing for us.

They should be allowed to continue to consume. We need their human resources to develop coal mines for us, but at the same time we don’t want them to develop too powerfully. "

"What does the king mean?" Chu Hui was a little stunned when he heard Liu Tai's words, because in Chu Hui's view, Liu Tai had always been more supportive of the Duan tribe, and he did not expect Liu Tai to say such a thing.

"Let Tian Tian recruit a group of temporary workers, and when the Murong tribe suffers a loss, let them smuggle weapons at three to four times the price." Liu Tai said calmly, "We only accept gold, ginseng, deer antlers, labor, and horses. I believe that Murong Xian definitely wants to unify the Murong tribe, so he will definitely admit it!"

"Your Majesty, you are not afraid. After getting the weapon, will Murong Xin really defeat the Duan tribe and unify the Xianbei tribe!?"

Chu Hui couldn't help but become serious when he heard Liu Tai's words, because he felt that Liu Tai was playing with fire.

"If so, then Pingzhou has the value of being unified!" Liu Tai said, "But before we unify the Central Plains, let the Duan tribe and the Murong tribe continue to fight. The two sides have an irresolvable blood feud, which will bring stability to our north. guarantee.”

Everyone present heard Liu Tai's words and looked at each other. However, they couldn't help but feel that Liu Tai seemed to be very experienced in handling such small state affairs, but they didn't know whether it was better to lament Liu Tai's shamelessness or to praise Liu Tai's wisdom. .

For Liu Tai, after all, in modern times, he has seen too many people of the same ethnic group being incited to kill each other by Yingjiang, and his own provocation is trivial.

For Liu Tai, if he didn't have the time to deal with Pingzhou's affairs, he would basically follow the Tang Dynasty's operation. First, he would take his troops to plow the area hard to ensure that there were no enemies, and then kill the remaining leaders. They recruited high-ranking officials in the capital and received generous rewards, and then treated the people under their command in a Chinese-style way.

Basically, after this whole process, most of the aliens basically knelt down.

Think about the battle of Xiangji Temple. Not to mention the two sides were Han or aliens. At least at that moment, both sides were no longer Han. Both sides were fighting for the belief in saving the Tang Dynasty.

Just like this, the two most elite elites of the Tang Dynasty have been destroyed since then, and one of them has been severely damaged and has lost its original glory. Therefore, Liu Tai would not deliberately block the supplies of the Duan clan, but he would send people to do business with Murong Xin.

For Liu Tai, the Xianbei tribe had completely unified western Liaoning, which made it worthwhile to defeat them.

As for who unified it, it really didn't matter to Liu Tai, but if it was the Duan tribe that unified it, he could educate it without any blood. If it was Murong Xin's unified thing, he would still need to send people to fight.

As for losing, Liu Tai really hasn't thought about it, after all, Pingzhou's size is there.

If they fail to conquer once, if they fail twice, or if they conquer a few more times, their entire body will not be able to withstand such a blow.

When dealing with a regime that is weaker than one's own, one uses force to suppress others, no, one uses one's own strength to hurt others, which is enough to make the other party suffer unspeakably.

Therefore, Liu Tai soon gave this memorial to Duan Shujun again.

He appointed Duan Shujun as the governor of Pingzhou and Duan Wenyuan as the governor of Pingzhou. Together, the two of them had military and political power over Pingzhou.

At this time, Duan Shujun took the decree from Liu Tai and proudly faced Duan Pixi and said:

"Brother, I say you are worrying too much. The King of Han has always treated us sincerely.

As soon as I received a memorial from my brother, the king gave Wen Yuan and I the posts of governor of Pingzhou and governor of Pingzhou! "

Duan Pixi looked at the joy on the faces of Duan Shujun and Duan Wenyuan, and admitted: "What the second brother said is true. Now that the tribe is prosperous, I can rest assured!"

At the beginning, the Duan brothers looked for a better way out for the Duan tribe, so they made different choices. Duan Pixi and Duan Xiu followed Liu Kun. After Liu Kun was defeated, Duan Pixi He and Duan Xiu returned to Duan's tribe.

When they returned, they found that the tribe was completely different from when they left.

After all, from a nomadic tribe to a pastoral tribe, it would be strange if the tribe remained the same as before.

Moreover, the momentum of tribal development is also very good. The Xianbei tribe in the entire Liaodong region has developed into two very large Xianbei tribes, the Duan tribe and the Murong tribe. Even Yuwen Xianbei, who prefers to live in the north, has followed The development of the Duan tribe and the Murong tribe gradually eroded it.

It can be said that the current Duan Xianbei and Murong Xianbei almost represent the future of the Xianbei clan.

Duan Pixi and Duan Xiu even saw with their own eyes how the original Tuoba tribe split after Tuoba Yilu's death, and then how they were defeated by that guy Zhao An, so Duan Pixi was born with Liu Tai. trust.

But now in the Duan clan, anyone he meets can speak Chinese and understand Han rituals. However, the things passed down by his Xianbei clan cannot be said to have completely disappeared, it can only be said to be gradually decreasing.

This made Duan Pixi instinctively feel uneasy, but he didn't know what to do.

After all, Duan Shujun and Duan Wenyuan made the right decision. At least now the tribe is indeed developing and becoming more and more prosperous.

But he and Duan Xiu chose Liu Kun. As a result, Liu Kun died, and the people he brought there also suffered numerous casualties. Now that he is back, what qualifications do he have to correct him? Some of them are just a reminder to Duan Shujun. Then believe Liu Tai.

He even used Murong Xuan to call himself the governor of Pingzhou and learned from the Han people's model of establishing subordinates. He had to let Duan Shujun see it clearly. Liu Tai had to believe it, but he couldn't believe it completely.

However, he did not expect that Liu Tai would also directly seal Duan Shujun and Duan Wenyuan from their positions, allowing them to have full power in Pingzhou, directly crushing his own little thoughts that had not yet been exposed.

"Is it true that Liu Taizhen is so good and doesn't care about the difference between Hu and Han at all!?" Duan Pizhen couldn't help but think at this moment.

However, no matter what, after Duan Shujun and Duan Wenyuan obtained the highest positions in Pingzhou, they immediately announced to the surrounding tribes that Liu Tai would confer them.

In any case, with Liu Tai's success in conquering Shi Le and Liu Yao, he at least completed the control of the north of the Yellow River, and Zhao An killed Tuoba Xianbei. This makes Liu Tai's reputation relatively useful in Pingzhou, at least around him. The foreigners knew more or less that there was someone behind Duan Xianbei.

But for this kind of thing, Murong Xin also worked hard to win over the foreign tribes around him, saying that he was the orthodox Xianbei. How could the Duan tribe capture my Xianbei tribe and sell them to the Han people as coolies, so how could they set an example for me, Xianbei.

Regarding this matter, Duan Shujun of Duan Xianbei said that only by experiencing the baptism of education from the Han Dynasty can we, Xianbei, transform from backward barbarians into civilized people.

Although I have captured the Xianbei ethnic group and gave it to the Han people, as long as you are diligent and diligent in learning Chinese and Chinese etiquette, it will not be difficult to become the master of my Duan Xianbei clan after being recognized by the Han people.

Even the Duan clan Xianbei allowed themselves to be captured by several representatives of the successful Chineseization. In the past, they persuaded their own people to join the Duan clan Xianbei and let them lead by example to see if the Han Dynasty really wanted to help Xianbei develop.

To be honest, those who were arrested and entered the Coal and Steel Department really went to hell.

But the Han people are really willing to teach them knowledge, whether it is Chinese characters, Chinese history or mathematics, as long as they are willing to learn, the Han people will really teach them.

Especially after they have achieved academic success and are recognized by the Han people, namely Lu Chen, they can be directly sent to the Duan tribe, and when they arrive at the Duan tribe, they all directly become high-level talents.

This kind of life situation made these people who were sent to the Coal and Steel Division not only not feel resentful towards the Duan tribe, but on the contrary, they were really grateful to the Duan tribe for sending them to the Coal and Steel Division.

Because after learning so much knowledge, they knew that if they were still in the Xianbei tribe, they could only become shepherds at the bottom, without any hope at all.

But they entered the Coal and Steel Company. Although their initial life was very painful, now that they have left the Coal and Steel Company, they miss it very much, and they are constantly beautifying it in their memories.

Because it really changed their lives there, they now support the sinicization of the Hu people more than Duan Shujun and Duan Wenyuan.

This is about their own position and even their beliefs.

When they looked up at the moon in the sky deep in the coal and steel company, they felt that the moon in the sky was rounder than that in the grassland.

When I was qualified to go to the Duan clan, I passed through Youzhou and found that the air in Youzhou was full of the fragrance of civilization.

They are true converts of Han culture.
