Chapter 304: Great Benevolence and Great Righteousness
Chapter 304: Great benevolence and righteousness
Yu Wenkang closed his eyes tightly, two tears fell from the corners of his eyes, and his heart was filled with the intention of quitting. Qiu Liju let out a long sigh, got off his horse and knelt down on one leg and said: "Marshal Zuo's words of benevolence and righteousness are like the biting cold wind.
Rescue me from the cold and let me understand the principles of loyalty. I, Qiu Liju, am willing to submit to the Han Dynasty and to Marshal Zuo. I am willing to follow Marshal Zuo to report to the country and bring peace to the people."
Zuo Aoran hurriedly dismounted, picked up Qiu Liju with both hands, and said, "King Qiu Liju is really a man who understands righteousness. I, Zuo Aoran, can't thank you enough." After saying that, Gongsun Zan was left behind, and Chen Deng and Chen Deng reorganized and surrendered their troops.
He and Qiu Liju went to the camp side by side.
Back at the camp, Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Zuo Chun, and Zhang Tai all returned, killing the enemy generals Wang Tong, Tu Jinniu, Chi Mohan, and Chi Mohu, and captured Qiu Liju alive, Cong Zi Tadun, which made Qiu
Liju was moved again. At this point, the chaos in Youzhou was settled.
The Wuhuan tribe is divided into four tribes. Among them, the Nanlou tribe has the largest population, with about 200,000 people, followed by the Qiuliju tribe, with a population of 150,000, the Supuyan tribe with a population of more than 100,000, and the smallest tribe.
The tribe belongs to the Wuyan tribe, with a population of about 80,000. Now Wuyan has been destroyed, and with the support of Zuo Aoran, Qiu Liju annexed it.
Although the number of Qiu Liju is still not as large as that of Nanlou, the number of cavalry is greater than that of the former. Therefore, among the three Wuhuan tribes, Qiu Liju is the strongest. Therefore, Qiu Liju can be said to be the leader of Wuhuan.
Zuo Aoran is the real king among the three tribes of the Wuhuan tribe, but if he wants the Wuhuan tribe to truly surrender, Zuo Aoran has to convince the kings of the other two tribes.
Although Zuo Aoran can completely overwhelm the other two tribes with his military strength and strength, there is no guarantee that they will always surrender. If their interests are touched at all, they may rebel.
At that time, once the two tribes united, it would be difficult for Qiu Liju to compete alone, so with Qiu Liju's repeated pleas and strong guarantees, Zuo Aoran agreed to go with him to meet the kings of the other two tribes of the Wuhuan tribe.
Five days later, Qiu Liju left Zuo Aoran's camp, led his army back to his own territory, and summoned the other two kings to negotiate their submission. After Zuo Aoran finished handling the matters here, he rode there alone.
In Qiu Liju's territory, everyone said they refused, but Zuo Aoran convinced most people with one last sentence, which was: "Don't trust those who employ them, and don't use those who are suspicious!" Qiu Liju was leaving before he left.
Before leaving, five thousand Wuhuan elite cavalry were specially selected to stay and were organized into the "Feiyu Camp" by Zuo Aoran.
Let’s stop chatting and get straight to the point. Zuo Aoran rode alone to Qiu Liju’s old camp. The natural scenery along the way was panoramic, which made Zuo Aoran feel very comfortable in his heart, and secretly sighed: "Big
Nature is so nice!”
As early as ten miles away from Qiu Liju's old camp, Qiu Liju sent people to wait, and they received them one by one until they were received into the Qiu Liju tribe. These Wuhuan soldiers who received him asked Zuo Aoran something.
One answer after another, no nonsense, just like that, Zuo Aoran also understood a lot.
Both Nanlou and Su Puyan were opposed to surrender, but under the double pressure of Qiu Liju and himself, they had no choice but to surrender. Zuo Aoran had already expected this. From the Wuhuan soldiers who received him, he learned that Qiu Liju had no choice but to surrender.
Liju wanted to meet him first, and then meet Nanlou and Su Puyan.
Zuo Aoran just followed the Wuhuan soldiers in front, crossing left and turning right. Zuo Aoran sighed secretly: "Qiu Liju's old camp is so big! This doesn't seem to include some small vassal tribes!" Right here.
At that moment, Zuo Aoran suddenly heard a strange sound. This sound forced Zuo Aoran to stop and stop to listen and look...
In the complete silence, a woman's voice and the shouts of a group of men came from an extremely huge six-story cowhide tent.
At this moment, Wuhuan Bing, who had previously led Zuo Aoran, hurried over. When he found that Zuo Aoran was missing, he was shocked and hurriedly followed the original route to find Zuo Aoran.
If Ran lost it, his life would be lost. Not long after he returned the same way, he found Zuo Aoran and found that Zuo Aoran seemed to be looking at something!?
When he came closer to Zuo Aoran and took a look, Xiao Bing's brain immediately went crazy. He knew the woman, and he also knew one of the men. It took him a long time to react, and he gently pulled his left hand.
Ao Ran's sleeve said: "Marshal Zuo, my king is walking in the tent in front. I'm afraid that my king is waiting in a hurry, so please..."
"Oh! I almost forgot, sorry, please lead the way!" Zuo Aoran said.
The soldier wiped the cold sweat from his head and saluted Zuo Aoran: "Marshal Zuo, please follow me." After saying that, he walked quickly as if there was a lion chasing him behind.
"What's your name?" Zuo Aoran asked.
The soldier replied: "The younger one's name is Moriba."
"Haha! Moriba! Who was the woman in the tent just now? I see you are very nervous, don't tell me you don't know her? Or find other excuses to stall me!" Zuo Aoran said.
Moriba said: "I can't tell you. I really don't know. Marshal Zuo please don't embarrass me."
"Okay! I won't make it difficult for you!" Moriba was about to say thank you, but Zuo Aoran said with a smile: "You don't know, your king should know. When we meet later, I will ask
Him, see if he knows?"
Moriba was dumbfounded when he heard this, and hurriedly said: "Marshal Zuo, please don't ask my king. If my king knows about this, I'm afraid the whole tribe will be turned upside down!"
"If that's the case, then I need to know even more. I like to inquire deeply. If I don't know something thoroughly, I won't be able to sleep!?" After a pause, Zuo Aoran
Said: "I promise that except for what God knows and what the earth knows, and what you know and what I know, I will never let any third person know about it. Okay! You can tell me now!"
Moriba hesitated for a moment, and finally gritted his teeth, as if he had made up his mind. He looked around and saw that no one was around, walked up to Zuo Aoran, and whispered in Zuo Aoran's ear: "That woman
Call Carrie! Marshal Zuo can leave now!" After saying that, Moriba turned around and left.
Zuo Aoran reached out and grabbed Moriba's arm, and said with a smile: "Brother Moriba! Since you have already said that his name is Carrie, don't be stingy. She
Who is he? You had such a big reaction after meeting him, and you said that the tribe was in chaos. How could this woman have so much power? I am getting more and more curious now!"
Moriba wailed and said, "I knew this would be the outcome!" After a pause, he said, "The woman in the tent just now is one of our king's two concubines, named Carrie.
The other concubine is called Mutar. These two concubines are extremely loved by our king." He looked around and said: "Marshal Zuo, if our king knows about this matter, will our entire tribe be in chaos?
!”
Zuo Aoran laughed and said: "Your king is so tall and thick, is it possible?"
Moriba shook his head and said: "Marshal Zuo, haven't I finished what I said? I don't know whether our king is wax or not, but the desire of Muthar and Karile is very strong! Alas! That's not right.
!That’s not what I want to say. Among the nine men, the youngest only knows one, and that is our king’s son, the young prince Tadun!”
Tadun!? He is the first warrior of Wuhuan! It turns out that he likes this tune! Could it be that all foreigners like this tune, or it is a tradition left by foreigners, which means that a younger brother can possess his elder brother's wife and daughter after he ascends the throne, or maybe
Is it that when a son succeeds to the throne, he can possess his father’s woman during his lifetime, except his own mother, or that mother and daughter serve the same husband together!?
The good news from Jingzhou, Yizhou, Youzhou, and Bingzhou arrived one after another. When he learned that the rebellions in all directions had been put down, Ling Emperor Liu Hongda was overjoyed and awarded them rewards one after another. He named Sun Jian the Marquis of Wucheng, Wang Min the Marquis of Nanyang, and Liu Yan's subordinate Jia Long.
As the prefect of Bajun, Zuo Aoran received no reward. He immediately returned to Beijing a few days later. His subordinate Shi Tianfeng pretended to be the prefect of Yuyang. Gongsun Zan served as the right governor of Beiping. He was responsible for the affairs of the western and eastern Liaoning counties. Liu Yu also received no reward, only a letter.
It was just a letter of commendation. The three brothers who suffered the most were Liu Bei. Although they had made numerous meritorious services, they did not receive any official positions. They were only appointed as Sima of a certain department and magistrate of Pingyuan County. Fortunately, Liu Bei recruited another thief general named Han Xian.
Going back to Zuo Aoran, it turns out that there are two reasons why Qiu Liju wants to meet Zuo Aoran. The first thing is the problem of Nanlou and Su Buyan. The second thing is that even Zuo Aoran wants to break his head.
What was impossible to imagine was that Li Wenhou only led hundreds of horsemen to rush into the Xianbei, Xiongnu, Qin and Hu territories, and finally ran to Qiu Liju's old camp and was captured. After questioning, he found out that Li Wenhou was Zuo Aoran.
His subordinates cannot be killed!
According to Li Wenhou, since Han Sui set up the Hongmen Banquet, he has been suppressed by Han Sui. Later, Emperor Ling Liu Hong sent Huangfu Song as the commander and Dong Zhuo as the vanguard to lead the army to suppress the rebellion again. In order to give Beigong Boyu, Ke Wu
The father and son, as well as the Alituo brothers, took revenge and reunited with Huangfu Song's army. Later, for unknown reasons, Huangfu Song was dismissed from his official position and Dong Zhuo took over. After Dong Zhuo took over, he drastically weakened his military power.
, when he could no longer bear it, he discovered that only a few thousand of his followers were left in his army. They were defeated in an encirclement and suppression campaign by Dong Zhuo. Ali Tuojin and his troops were cut off and died. Only then did he and Cheriji escape with more than a hundred cavalry.
Hearing this, Zuo Aoran slapped the table, smashing a corner of the table to pieces, and cursed angrily: "The unfaithful villain Han Sui, I, Zuo Aoran, will eat your flesh and drink your blood for the sake of Uncle Bei Gong."
Yu, Ke Wu and his son, and the Ali Tuo brothers take revenge!"
Qiu Liju was also very excited and said: "This kind of untrustworthy villain should be killed! He should be quartered and cut into pieces with a thousand swords!"
"Lord..." Li Wenhou knelt down in front of Zuo Aoran with his fists clasped, and said: "The Hou's failure to fulfill the lord's trust is an unforgivable crime and should be executed! But I, Li Wenhou, promised brother Ye Wenlang that I would do something for Brother Ye Wenlang.
They took revenge. Hou begged the lord to spare his life temporarily. When the lord leads his army to kill Han Sui's dog thief, the lord will count the crimes and punish them. Even though the lord dies, he will have no regrets! Please allow me, my lord!"
"If Brother Wenhou wants to use his troops to kill Han Sui's dog thief, although I can't be of much help, I still have tens of thousands of elite soldiers and thousands of generals. They can all obey my dispatch and be commanded by Brother Wenhou! Ahem!
Ahem!" Qiu Liju said.
Li Wenhou hugged Qiu Liju and said, "Thank you, brother Qiu!"
Zuo Aoran didn't say anything, he just felt regret. Why didn't he think that Han Sui, a capricious villain, not only killed Beigong Boyu, Ke Wu, Ye Wenlang, but also killed Ali Tuotie's three men?
Brother, I’m really a little proud, no! It’s not pride! It’s unscrupulous arrogance! I’ve gone too far along the smooth road...
