In the hall, Nanlou treated Liu Yu as his honored guest. He, Gao Fei and Qiu Liju sat at the bottom, while Xian Yufu stood behind Liu Yu.
As soon as Liu Yu sat down, he spoke first: "Master Nanlou, you must also know the purpose of my visit, right?"
Nanlou knew it well and immediately asked: "I don't know what the envoy wants me to do?"
Liu Yu said: "Lead the troops back to Baishan and return the land of the four counties and the looted people."
Nanlou suddenly smiled and said: "Then didn't I return in vain this time?"
"Don't worry, I will never treat you badly. I will report to the court and make you a general of the Han Dynasty. At the same time, I will offer you gold, silver and silk as a ransom for the people of Youzhou, and I will use Shanggu as a city of mutual communication. We
Wouldn't it be nice for each other to remain as usual?" Liu Yu said seriously.
Nanlou did not answer immediately, but glanced sideways at Gao Fei, then at Qiu Liju, and then asked: "Old immortal, you said it was General Gao who defeated you?"
Qiu Liju then responded: "You stinky boy, please keep your mouth clean. The people here are all generals of the Han Dynasty. There is Liu Shijun at the top and General Gao at the bottom. This is not the grassland outside the Great Wall."
Nanlou cleared his throat and changed his words: "Lord Qiu Liju, is what you said at the beginning true?"
Qiu Liju nodded and said: "I've always been honest. It was indeed General Gao who defeated me in western Liaoning. When I was desperate, it was General Gao who gave me a glimmer of faith. If you don't want the Wuhuan people to become extinct from now on, hurry up.
Surrender."
Nanlou clicked his tongue and said: "I didn't realize that General Gao is actually more powerful than General Baima. I only heard that you besieged Gongsun Zan in Guanzi City. As for what happened in the future, I don't know. Anyway, Gongsun Zan belongs to you."
The fight has nothing to do with me. I also believe you can win. I didn't expect you to lose to General Gao. It seems that General Gao is a brave and invincible general."
Qiu Liju nodded and said carelessly: "You are right, General Gao is not only the Heavenly General, but also the Ziwei Emperor..."
"Haha, you all praise me too much. I'm just an ordinary person." Gao Fei immediately interrupted what Qiu Liju was about to say. He was afraid that Qiu Liju would say something about the reincarnation of the Ziwei Emperor Star. Such words
For Liu Yu, it was definitely very jarring.
When Qiu Liju saw Gao Fei interrupting his words, he immediately understood. Although he didn't know what he said wrong, he still stopped talking and stopped talking.
However, Nanlou became more and more interested in Gao Fei. In the hearts of nomads, they have always respected the strong, and the person who succeeded the leader of each tribe was also the strongest person in each tribe, or could convince the people of each tribe.
People. Nanlou belongs to the former. He is the strongest person in his tribe. After defeating his predecessor, Lord Wuhuan, he took over the position of leader. However, he has relatively strong personal abilities and military talents.
However, he was very low-ranking, so he was defeated by Qiu Liju, who had less soldiers, horses, and population than him.
"General Gao, I admire heroes the most in my life. On our grassland, General Tian is synonymous with heroes. Since they all call you General Tian, I believe you must be outstanding. I want to compete with you. I don't know.
What do you think, General Gao?"
After Gao Fei heard this, he remembered what Qiu Liju had said to him when he entered the city. Unexpectedly, it came true here. He said loudly: "I never fight with others easily. If it is an enemy, there is no need for me to take action. I will
The five tiger generals under his command will directly defeat the enemy. If it is one of our own, that is a different matter. It is normal to compete and learn martial arts."
After Nan Lou listened, his interest became more intense, and he thought in his mind: "Listening to his words, it seems that he has five masters under his command. It seems that there are indeed capable people in his army who can be called tigers."
The person must be very powerful."
After he finished thinking about it, he immediately said: "Liu Shijun, since you are here to persuade us to surrender, then I, Nanlou, will accept this surrender for Liu Shijun's sake. However, I have an additional condition."
"What conditions? Just tell me." Liu Yu said.
Nanlou said: "There are very few Han people in the Shanggu area, and the Han people I plundered will be returned to Liu Shijun in full, but I ask Liu Shijun to let my people live in Shanggu County."
Liu Yu didn't even think about it and retorted directly: "No! How can the Han's territory be ceded casually?"
Nanlou snorted coldly and said: "Liu Shijun, the current situation is no longer what it used to be. I have 180,000 tribesmen under my command, including 80,000 cavalry. Now they have occupied the four counties of Youzhou.
As long as I give the order, 80,000 cavalrymen will take advantage of the momentum to go south. Within a few months, they can sweep across Jizhou, Qingzhou, Yanzhou and other places. As long as I am happy, it will not be a problem to go straight to the capital. I just go up to the valley.
One piece of land is a fair price for retreating."
Seeing Nanlou's arrogance, Qiu Liju immediately said: "Why are you..."
"Shut up!" Nanlou didn't wait for Qiu Liju to speak, he directly pushed forward and shouted loudly, "I didn't want to rebel at first, but you insisted on forcing me to rebel. Now that I rebelled, you surrendered to the big man. I
Now that we have rebelled, we have spent so much energy, so there should be some reward, right? Although 80,000 cavalry is not a lot, there is absolutely no problem in sweeping across the entire Hebei Province in a short period of time. Who can stop them by burning, killing and looting all the way? 80,000 cavalry.
If the fight is over, I will let the whole clan come together and I will not give up until Hebei is turned upside down!"
Liu Yu's face was startled. He looked at Nanlou in front of him. He was completely different from the Nanlou he knew. He immediately asked: "You...you want to fight to the death?"
Nanlou nodded solemnly and said loudly: "If you don't give me Shanggu County as the settlement area for my people, we will fight to the death. Anyway, in the end, it will be your Han people who suffer!"
"You..." Liu Yu's face was already turning green and red with anger. He vaguely felt that a group of wolves from the grassland was about to cause an uproar, and he mistakenly overestimated his ability to persuade them to surrender.
Gao Fei looked at the wild wolf that was about to break out in Nanlou. It seemed that both Qiu Liju and Liu Yu had underestimated this person and made him mistakenly think that the surrender meeting was going smoothly. But he had been keeping calm.
He wanted to solve this rebellion in a peaceful way, because he couldn't afford it, and he couldn't keep up with Nanlou. Once Nanlou insisted on launching a rebellion, it would bring great consequences to him to occupy the entire Youzhou and develop it into a base area.
A big threat, he couldn't allow this threat to exist, he could only try his best to eliminate it.
At this time, the hall was filled with the smell of gunpowder, and the tense atmosphere was enough to make people suffocate. In one moment, a word changed the entire peaceful atmosphere, making everyone's heart beat faster.
After a long time, Gao Fei finally spoke: "Master Nanlou, as far as I know, Shanggu County is surrounded by Yanshan Mountain to the north and the desert, to the south the army is overlooking the Central Plains, to the east is the Juyong Lock Key Danger, and to the west is Xiaowutai Mountain and Dai.
The county is adjacent to it and has been a battleground for military strategists since ancient times. Although there are vast grasslands and large areas of barren mountains and ridges, the rivers and basins have average water conservancy conditions and cannot be said to be fertile and beautiful. Lord Nanlou insisted on going to Shanggu County as a condition for retreating.
, could it be that they want to take advantage of the superiority of its terrain to deal with the Xianbei people in the north?"
Nanlou was shocked after hearing this. He didn't expect Gao Fei to be able to say what he was thinking. He was so surprised that he hurriedly asked: "You...how do you know?"
Gao Fei said with a smile: "I am General Tian, what don't I know? And now I am also very clear about the situation of you Wuhuan people. It is necessary to make enemies of the Han in the south, and the north must always be wary of the Xianbei people.
.The reason why you rebelled is because the Han Dynasty court is not kind to you. Every time there is an expedition, the first thing that comes to mind is you Wuhuan people. The result of life and death is that the number of you Wuhuan people continues to decrease. But there are still people on the northern grasslands.
A powerful enemy is the Xianbei people. In order to avoid the constant harassment of the Xianbei people, you will want to move within the Great Wall and use the Great Wall to isolate the Xianbei people from harassment. Master Nanlou, am I right?"
Nanlou's eyes shone brightly, and he looked at Gao Fei in surprise, as if he had seen a god. He quickly replied: "Yes, yes, that's what I thought. There are still 180,000 of my tribe."
, if the living environment is not improved, it is very likely that my tribe will be engulfed by the Xianbei people in the next few years, and we Wuhuan people will really disappear by then. It is for this reason that I followed Qiu
Those who work together to fight against the Han are just moving their own people within the Great Wall to revitalize us Wuhuan people."
Gao Fei continued: "Master Nanlou, this is not the only way to revitalize Wuhuan. There are thousands of Han people, and I'm afraid not many of them truly understand your situation in Wuhuan. But it is precisely for this reason that the Han people
The army will deal a serious blow to your rebellion. Now all the Qiu Liju people have moved to the Liucheng area in western Liaoning, where there is fertile grass and beautiful water, vast land, grassland to the north, and the sea to the south, and most of the Han people have also flowed in.
When we get to other counties and counties, if you are willing to surrender, I will definitely treat you Wuhuan people equally, and ask Lord Zhou Mu to separate Liaoxi and set up separate counties for you Wuhuan people to live in.
How about all of you Wuhuan people living together?"
Qiu Liju took the opportunity to walk to Nanlou and whispered in a low voice: "Nanlou, General Tian is the person who understands our Wuhuan people the best I have ever met. I believe he can lead us to revive Wuhuan. Now all the Wuhuan people
Huandu has already moved to the areas of Liucheng and Changli. If you lead your tribe here again, we Wuhuan can be considered as a whole, and the great cause of revitalizing Wuhuan can be realized bit by bit."
Nanlou thought about it carefully, and finally said loudly: "Okay, based on what General Chongtian said, I, Nanlou, are willing to withdraw our troops, and at the same time, I am willing to serve General Tian as our leader and lead us Wuhuan people on the road to rejuvenation."
