Chapter 976: Some endure humiliation and others laugh
Almost at the same time, there were some people in the Yanmen area who were thinking about this matter and chanting Fei Qian's name. However, these people did not know that Fei Qian was now General Zhengxi. They
I thought Fei Qian was still the general protecting the Hungarian army.
On the wide prairie, a group of people marched forward slowly, dragging their tired pace. This group of people were all wearing shabby felt hats and dirty leather robes. They were all gray and miserable.
To the extreme, it looks like a team of downtrodden horse thieves...
This group of troops were the tribesmen who had taken refuge with the commanders of Alanyi and Linyinqin who had come from the Xiongnu tribe.
These unruly Huns who once unified Monan and Mobei and spanned thousands of miles have now become like this, with no spirit at all, whether it is Alan Yi and Linyinqin who led the team, or the ordinary Huns who followed.
The tribesmen all lowered their heads, remained silent, and moved forward slowly.
These Huns who surrendered to Xianbei were equipped with the best equipment, including stinky leather armor, horned bows and bone arrows. If they were barely qualified as ranger scouts, they would be in a mess if they really wanted to fight on the battlefield, let alone beheaded.
Killing, just the arrows before joining the battle, is enough to make these unarmored Huns drink a pot.
No matter how powerful your riding skills are and how unafraid of life and death, you are still just an individual after all. If you shoot a crude bone arrow against iron armor, it may not even leave a mark, let alone break the armor, and the opponent's weapon
When arrows flew towards him, his body without any protection could only rely on the nihilistic armor of "luck" to protect him.
Xianbei is currently full of tribes, large and small. Although Bu Dugen is in charge, they are still relatively chaotic and there is not much organization. Anyway, in this land, these tribes are used to relying on whoever is stronger.
who.
Therefore, the Huns tribes of Alanyi and Linyinqin, who wanted to be weaker, suffered a lot.
The men on the grassland, whether they are Xianbei or Xiongnu, adhere to the tribal system of the weak and the strong. Alan Yi and Lin Yinqin lost their momentum, so they were naturally bullied, even though King Xianbei said that they should treat Alan Yi and Lin Yinqin kindly.
, but in fact basically no one takes Alanyi and Linyinqin seriously.
Before, Alanyi and Linyinqin were still more or less the number one figures among the Southern Huns, but now, their status has plummeted. Even a small Xianbei leader can still tease Alanyi and Linyinqin in front of them.
and laugh at them…
As for Xianbei King Bu Dugen, he didn't have the leisure time to manage such matters, so he ignored them most of the time.
The tribesmen led by Alanyi and Linyinqin had to seek some external subsidies because the entire allocated pasture was not ideal. For the nomads, the most customary way of supplementation was naturally to farm next door.
The ethnic groups are going to enjoy the autumn breeze...
After all, it is a matter of great national integration, so how can we not support it?
However, this time Lin Yinqin took his tribe out for five or six days, and the food and grass they seized were pitiful. At most, they were various miscellaneous grains worth less than 200 shi, and some tattered Gebu clothes, and that was it.
The Yanmen area has been invaded by barbarians all year round. Most of the wealthy nobles with families have moved away, leaving only the miserable people who have nowhere to go.
How many good things are there?
Behind the slowly returning team were several vehicles carrying the trophies. They were also in tatters, almost as if they were going to fall apart in the next moment, creaking and twisting on the grass. On one side of the baggage vehicles, there were also
Several emaciated animals that were stolen were pulled with ropes.
Even with these inconspicuous things, Alanyi and Linyinqin still sacrificed twenty or thirty lives of their clansmen. The Han people in the North are also extremely tough. What's more, these grains and grass may have been saved by the family with great difficulty.
How could he be willing to let Alan Yi, Lin Yinqin and others plunder and run away?
Lin Yinqin was at the front of the queue, with his dirty leather robe open and his body covered in mud. He was no different from the surrounding tribesmen, with a sullen face and a frown.
Since surrendering to Xianbei, Linyinqin's originally fiery temperament has gradually faded away. Now, when being shouted at, laughed at, and teased by some Xianbei leaders, Linyinqin can remain silent most of the time.
Endured it.
This time he took Alan Yi and Lin Yin Qin's people out to plunder, and Lin Yin Qin did it all personally. This was basically unimaginable before. After all, Alan Yi and Lin Yin Qin were both nobles of the Southern Huns royal court.
, originally disdainful of doing such menial work.
But now, everything has changed.
The cause was that Yuvluo, and more importantly, that Han Chinese, General Fei Qian, who was protecting the Hungarian army...
This time they were looking for Han people, um, to borrow food. The tribesmen found a small village in the mountains that was based on danger. After Alan Yi and Lin Yinqin got the information, Lin Yinqin personally led the team and abandoned their horses to climb the mountain.
He climbed up the wall of the village with a knife between his teeth, and finally killed the strong men in the village to obtain these seizures.
Just when Linyinqin was about to lead his tribe back to the small pasture where he was with Alan Yi, a Xianbei team of dozens of people came running from the northeast.
The Xianbei cavalry whistled and galloped over the grass, their pigtails sticking to their scalps and jumping in the air. They were approaching. The leaders were Alan Yi and a Xianbei man from the grassland next to Linyinqin.
.
The Xianbei leader stopped his men, then reined in his horse and spun twice in front of Linyinqin. He showed a ferocious smile to Linyinqin and announced loudly: "These grains and grass are ours, hand them over."
!”
The Huns under Linyinqin couldn't help but be startled, and then a look of anger appeared on their faces.
The pastures are poor, the cattle and sheep are thin, and their numbers have been exploited by the Xianbei. It turns out that returning from harvesting grain can last for some time, allowing the cattle and sheep to multiply during the season. In this way, the future life may be barely enough.
Get by.
As a result, I risked my life and finally found a small village to collect this small amount. However, the nearby Xianbei tribe smelled the fishy smell and came to intercept it, trying to snatch it away with just a few words!
The Xianbei people laughed loudly, pointing at Lin Yinqin and others while holding knives and long bows. There was even a look of expectation in their eyes, as if to say, come on, let's do it...
The Huns glared at the Xianbei group, holding their knives, but when they met the Xianbei cavalry's indifferent and provocative gaze, they gritted their teeth and endured it, and just turned their attention to Lin Yinqin.
Lin Yinqin, who had been silent all this time, could only step out from the crowd at this time. He bowed to the Xianbei small-headed man, stroked his chest as a courtesy, and said in a deep voice: "Our clansmen found and conquered the village.
According to the old rules, we should hand over 30% to Lord Xianbei. We understand this, but taking it all away is against the rules, right?"
The Xianbei man snorted and sneered: "I didn't expect you to know the rules! Okay, let's talk about the rules! This area of Yanmen originally belonged to us Xianbei people, when will it be your turn to let the Huns
Are you here to raid the grass valley? If you want to raid the grass valley, go to the territory of your Xiongnu! Furthermore, who agreed or approved when you sent out troops to raid the grass valley? If you are like you who ignore orders, then the military order of the Xianbei King is still there.
Do you want to comply?"
The more important people are, the more polite they are to others, because they know that being polite can show their upbringing, and they don't worry about others being rude to them...
But the more small a person is, as long as he has a little power, he can't wait to tremble all over, and he can't wait to have the four words "Come and beg me" carved on his face...
This has been the case throughout the ages.
The act of plowing grass and paddy has always been done at the decision of the tribal leader, and Xianbei is an alliance system. Centralization of power basically does not exist, so even a small matter like plowing paddy needs to be done.
What is the rationale for reporting approval layer by layer?
It's just that the Xianbei leaders felt that Alanyi and Linyinqin were easy to bully, so they deliberately made excuses to make things difficult for them.
After saying that, without waiting for Lin Yinqin to reply, the Xianbei leader waved his hand, and a dozen or so Xianbei people who were following him separated and headed towards the baggage train behind the Xiongnu queue to rob the grain, grass and livestock.
.
While the Xianbei people seized control of the baggage train from the Huns, they saw something they liked in the Huns' tattered leather robes, so they reached out and grabbed it without any ceremony. If they thought it was okay, they stuffed it into their arms.
Here, if you think you've made a mistake and don't like it, you can just throw it away, rush your horse and trample it over...
The Huns were so angry that they blew their beards and stared, but they didn't know whether to resist or not. They could only stare at Linyinqin, hoping that Linyinqin would come up with an idea...
All the Xiongnu people were so angry that they clenched their fists tightly, but they did not dare to resist. They betrayed the Xiongnu, defected to Xianbei, and fled all the way. Basically, all the strong men who could fight were here, and there were only a few left.
Qianqi Zuo, compared to his previous peak period in Meiji, is a world of difference.
Moreover, the military force that now belongs to Xianbei is extremely disparity in strength compared with the surrounding large Xianbei tribes. If they dare to resist, the Xianbei army and horses will definitely slaughter all their men without mercy, and then kill their women, children and livestock.
, became the spoils of war for the Xianbei tribe.
The fighting and fighting between grassland tribes has always been so cruel. They used to annex other small tribes like this, and now Xianbei does the same.
Lin Yinqin suddenly rode his horse and walked towards the Xianbei leader, laughing with him and bowing slightly, as if he wanted to get closer to the Xianbei leader and say something to plead with him. The Xianbei leader was
With a straight face, he glanced at Lin Yinqin from the corner of his eyes, waiting for Lin Yinqin to plead in front of him and then reject him mercilessly.
No one expected that Lin Yinqin got closer, suddenly drew out his sword, and immediately put it on the neck of the Xianbei leader!
Lin Yinqin shouted loudly: "Let them stop! These grains, grass and livestock are all obtained by our people's hard work! Even the King of Xianbei has no reason to snatch them all away!"
A group of Xianbei cavalry were caught off guard and were successfully attacked by Lin Yinqin. They shouted loudly and pointed their swords and spears at them. However, for a moment, they were somewhat defensive. They just surrounded Lin Yinqin and did not dare to take action.
"You! You dare to try it..."
The Xianbei man retorted harshly at first, but Lin Yinqin exerted a little force and the sharp blade cut his neck. When a trace of blood appeared, the Xianbei man gave up.
When they were in a stalemate, suddenly a group of people came running from a distance. Before they arrived, the voice came here first: "Let Xiao Wang come! Everyone stop!"
At that moment, both the Xianbei people and the Huns lowered their swords and guns, retreated a few steps to both sides, and made way for a path.
"What's going on?" A lazy voice came over, "You have no place to use your strength, right? If you don't put away the sword and gun, I will dismount and run for thirty or fifty miles..."
Dozens of Xianbei cavalry were seen surrounded by a young man. It was Tuoba Guoluo, the young man who was most favored by King Xianbei at the moment.
At this time, Lin Yinqin had also put away his sword, dismounted his horse, and bowed to Tuoba Guoluo while stroking his chest.
The Xianbei leader of the small tribe was about to step forward to say something. Before he could perform the boot ceremony, he was grabbed by Tuoba Guoluo, and then said with a smile: "The little calf of the He Lai family, right? Haha.
Haha, I have heard of your reputation from the king..."
The little Xianbei man immediately beamed with joy. He rubbed his hands in embarrassment, a little embarrassed, but asked expectantly: "Really? King Xianbei mentioned me? I don't know... I don't know, what did you say about me?"
?”
"Hahaha..." Tuoba Guoluo laughed up to the sky a few times, and then patted the little Xianbei man's shoulder heavily, "...I want to know what King Xianbei said? How could the words of King Xianbei be passed around at will?
?You don’t understand this, right? If King Xianbei originally wanted to reuse you, but others found out, would others give you some trouble and say bad things about you? Think about it, right? So I want to
You keep it a secret... Okay, leave this to me. You can go back first and prepare what you need to prepare, so as not to make any mistakes..."
So the Xianbei little-headed man left with great gratitude. He only thought about what he should prepare when he returned to the tribe, and then he threw the grievances just now behind his mind...
Tuoba Guoluo waved to Linyinqin, motioning for him to come closer, and then said with a smile: "Haha, this temper... it seems that it hasn't changed much..."
Lin Yinqin looked at Tuoba Guoluo, bowed, and said with a wry smile: "Thank you, Xiao Wang, for your help..."
"Easy to say, easy to say..." Tuoba Guoluo waved his hand, and dozens of Xianbei guards immediately dispersed to give some space to the two of them.
Tuoba Guoluo looked at the Huns on the side and said: "It seems that you are having a hard time... What, do you need my help?"
Lin Yinqin glanced at Tuoba Guoluo, shook his head and said: "No, thank you very much for Xiao Wang's kindness, I understand... Xiao Wang has been keeping me aside for a long time, isn't it just to see my jokes?"
"Anyway, I just happened to be passing by..." Tuoba Guoluo denied it flatly at first, and then laughed twice, "...Okay, okay, I just came to see you two..."
Tuoba Guoluo raised his head to the sky, watching the wind on the grassland blowing the clouds in the sky. After a long time, he said: "The king wants to raise troops to attack Yinshan..."
Lin Yinqin was silent for a long time before saying: "Fight now? Yinshan is not like Meiji. It is not easy to fight. It will take a long time. Once the war horses start to mate..."
Tuoba Guoluo nodded, shook his head, and said: "Not now... Even if we want to fight now, each tribe may not be able to gather the people, but we always have to prepare..."
The estrus period of cattle, horses and other livestock is about to enter. At this time point, these nomadic people are most concerned about their livestock and will not easily start any battles. After all, this is related to their future livelihood.
Lin Yinqin led his troops out to plunder, in order to give the people in the tribe more food and grass to eat, without consuming the livestock in the tribe. You know, in this livestock breeding season, it is good to have one more strong cattle and sheep.
of……
Of course, Tuoba Guoluo also knows about this matter, but the Xianbei tribe is really too big and scattered. It will naturally take a while to gather together for action, so start preparations now, and it will be almost ready by autumn.
.
If nothing else goes wrong, he will still lead the troops this time, but he also knows that a Han who can clean up Yinshan Xianbei is definitely not a good person. Now there is a high possibility that he will have to confront such a Han.
Naturally, I found Lin Yinqin and the two to learn more about the corresponding situation.
"...If you don't want to fight, you have to fight..." Tuoba Guoluo said, "The king has an order, how can you disobey it? However, I heard that the two of you know Huchuquan? I don't know if you know Huchuquan or not.
people?"
Lin Yinqin said: "I recognize Hu Chuquan, but who is around him... This is not necessarily the case..."
"It's okay, please accompany me for a walk later," Tuoba Guoluo suddenly changed his face and said with a serious expression, "If this matter hadn't been of great importance, I wouldn't have come to you. You know, this matter only involves
Your Majesty, I, and you, a few people know that if the news is leaked... you will understand... So I will call someone over later to explain what needs to be explained, so that everyone can rest assured. As for you... these days,
Before the king's order is finally issued, please come to my place and be a good guest..."
Lin Yinqin nodded and said simply: "Okay! Just follow Xiao Wang's instructions!"
Tuoba Guoluo put on a smiling face again and said with a smile: "Ah, I haven't asked you what kind of female slave you like? Fatter or thinner? One or two? Since it's my place.
When you are a guest, you always want to satisfy the guest, right? Haha, hahaha..."
