Section 4 Wei’s Countermeasures

Good and evil will be rewarded in the end. It's not that the time has not come yet. Just watch the crab pass by with a cold eye and see how long it will last.

If the Tuoba Department wants to develop in Monan, it must establish a good relationship with the Wei State. There are only two channels for establishing a good relationship. One is for Song Zhizi to go to the Wei State, and the other is to develop mutual trade with the Wei State.

What is recorded in the Wei Book is that the Tuoba tribe sent the Desert Khan to the Wei State to check the customs and customs. From here, it is also obvious that many of the Xianbei history recorded in the Wei Book have been revised. To be a hostage is to be a hostage.

, and what else to say about checking the local customs.

Desert Khan served as a hostage in the Wei State for six years. Fortunately, he performed well. Among all the hostages of the Wei State, Desert Khan performed best, so the areas he received in the Wei State were also very generous. The Tuoba Department relied on

Desert Khan also received a lot of benefits. From then on, mutual trade between the Tuoba tribe and foreign countries continued.

The year before Desert Khan arrived in Luoyang, it happened to be the year that Sima Zhao killed Wei Emperor Cao Mao and installed Cao Huan as emperor. Cao Huan was the last emperor of the Cao Wei Dynasty. In 263 AD, Sima Zhao ordered Zhong Hui to

Deng Ai was the general, Wei Guan was the supervisor, and several armies attacked together to destroy the Shu Han.

The Shu Han regime was defeated by Deng Ai's surprise troops. Zhong Hui was jealous of Deng Ai's achievements, slandered Deng Ai for rebelling, and sent his subordinate Wei Guan to lead his troops to capture Zhong Hui. Zhong Hui rebelled, but Wei Guan pretended to be ill. He led his troops to kill Zhong Hui, and Jiang Wei

After hunting down Deng Ai and his son, one man was responsible for destroying Shu. We can see that Wei Guan is a sophisticated person.

Wei Quan was a native of Anyi, Hedong Province. He was good at official script and was a veritable master of calligraphy. In terms of calligraphy achievements, his niece Wei Quan was even better than him. People in the world called her Mrs. Wei. He was also the teacher of the calligrapher Wang Xizhi.

After the Kingdom of Shu was destroyed, Sima Zhao rewarded him for his merits. He appointed Wei Guan as the General of the Conquest of the North, the commander-in-chief of all military affairs in Youzhou, the governor of Youzhou, and the captain of Wuhuan Protector, and was ordered to manage the north.

At that time, the situation in the north was very serious. To the east were the Murong tribe, Yuwen tribe, Goguryeo tribe, Fuyu tribe and other tribes, and to the west were the Tuoba tribe, Wuhuan tribe and other tribes.

After Wei conquered the north, he immediately put forward two suggestions to the central government.

The first is to establish Pingzhou in the east of Youzhou to strengthen the management of the Northeast.

The second point was raised against the Tuoba tribe. He believed that the tribal alliance established by Tuoba Liwei was too powerful and must be destroyed.

Wei Guan's suggestion was immediately approved by Sima Zhao. After establishing Pingzhou, the state capital was located in Xiangping. Xian Yuying, the school captain who protected Dongyi, also served as the governor of Pingzhou and was under the jurisdiction of Wei Guan.

Wei Guan had a vicious vision. The establishment of Pingzhou was easy to handle, but it was difficult to deal with Tuoba Liwei. He set his sights on Desert Khan in Luoyang. He knew that Desert Khan was young and powerful, and

After staying in the Central Plains for many years, if he returns to the Tuoba tribe, he will definitely be more difficult to deal with than Tuoba Liwei.

In 265 AD, the Western Jin Dynasty was abdicated by Wei Zen, and Sima Yan ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor. Wei Guan took this opportunity to recruit the Desert Khan to come to Beijing in the name of the imperial court.

After Desert Khan arrived, Sima Yan rewarded him with a large amount of gold and silver treasures in order to look good. Desert Khan came back this time with a full load, but he never expected that he would be detained by the governor of Bingzhou as soon as he arrived in Bingzhou. The charge was not difficult.

Just find one and install one for him.

Tuoba Liwei became anxious and immediately sent people to the Jin Kingdom to take care of the situation. Wei Guan also seized the opportunity and sent many people to the Tuoba Department and made friends with many of the senior officials under Tuoba Liwei.

Two years later, Wei Guan made all arrangements and ordered the governor of Bingzhou to release Desert Han and return.

Tuoba Liwei was very happy. After welcoming his son back, he held a big banquet. At the banquet, all the ministers were wearing sheepskins. Only Desert Khan was wearing Han clothes and Jin clothes, as if he stood out from the crowd. I saw the expressions on everyone's faces.

It was very cold, and the scene was once embarrassing. On top of the banquet, a bird flew overhead. Desert Khan took out a slingshot from his arms and shot the bird to the ground. Instead of applauding, everyone looked at each other in shock.

It turns out that the Xianbei people had never seen a slingshot. They all used arrows. Now they saw Desert Khan using a small slingshot to shoot down flying birds. Everyone was shocked. Plus the clothes Desert Khan was wearing, they thought of these

, which was even more unacceptable to the adults of the Tuoba tribe. They thought that if Desert Khan inherited the position of alliance leader, there was no telling what changes would happen in the future.

After these tribal adults returned, they gathered together to discuss and decided to get rid of the Desert Khan. However, they could not act on their own, so they decided to force the palace together and force Tuoba Liwei to issue an order.

Faced with the pressure from everyone, Tuoba Liwei had no choice but to pretend to agree and stabilize them first.

But he never expected that the tribe adults would immediately take action against what he said casually, returning to the fortress to kill Desert Khan.

Tuoba Liwei suffered the pain of losing his son, and he couldn't bear it for a while. He was so grief-stricken and anxious that he fell ill all of a sudden.

Wei Guan's first step was completed, and then he had to implement the second step of the strategy. That was to continue to implement the counter-intentional plan and instigate all Tuoba tribes to kill Tuoba Liwei. For this step of the strategy, Wei Guan selected the official of Kushang

Xian comes to execute it.

This man was also very smart. One day when he had nothing to do, he was sharpening an ax in the yard. Someone asked him, "Why are you sharpening the axe?" He replied, "The leader hates you for killing his son, so he

I will also kill your son to take revenge.

When the ministers heard this, they felt very uneasy. They all went back to summon their subordinates to start the rebellion. The official Xian of Kushan immediately reported the news to Tuoba Liwei. Tuoba Liwei was already very old and had just suffered the pain of losing his son. Now,

Faced with the collapse of the tribal alliance and rebellion among his subordinates, he vomited blood and died in a rage.

After Ku Xian successfully completed his mission, he led his troops to surrender to the Jin Dynasty, and Wei Guan gave them a generous reward.

After Tuoba Liwei died, his second son Tuoba Xilu succeeded to the throne. Faced with such a mess, he had no choice but to solve it. So he sent people everywhere to do ideological work in various tribes, saying that he would not pursue their faults

, and persuaded them to come back. Even so, few tribal leaders changed their minds.

After this incident, the Tuoba Department never recovered.

Tuoba Xilu died after being the leader of the alliance for nine years. His fourth brother Tuoba Chuo succeeded him. In order to stabilize the situation, he married his daughter to Qiu Buqin, the leader of the Yuwen tribe. After seven years of his reign,

After his death, Tobafu, the youngest son of Desert Khan, succeeded to the throne.

The tribal alliance has just collapsed, and the internal brotherhood has begun again.

Tuoba Liwei had four sons, namely Desert Khan, Tuoba Xilu, Tuoba Luguan and Tuoba Chuo. Desert Khan also had four sons, namely Tuoba Yiya, Tuoba Yilu and Tuoba Lan. , Tuoba Fu.

According to our tradition of inheriting the throne in the Central Plains, the current order of succession in the Tuoba tribe is definitely wrong. It is neither passed down from father to son, nor from brother to brother. Since the inheritance rules of the Tuoba tribe do not follow the succession from brother to brother one by one. According to legend, Tuoba Yiya, Tuoba Luguan, and Tuoba Yilu joined forces to kill Tuoba Fu.

After killing the alliance leader, the three of them discovered that there was only one position for the alliance leader. How should the three of them divide it?

They came up with another good idea. Why don't we just split the current Tuoba Division into three, one for each person, without fighting or grabbing each other? Wouldn't everyone be happy if everyone became the leader of the alliance?

In this way, during the difficult time of the Tuoba Department, it was divided into three parts. Fortunately, Desert Han's two sons were more capable, and in the subsequent development, the Tuoba Department slowly recovered. .
