Why did the Han Dynasty allow the Huns such a respite?
oh……
Liu Che thought about it, and now the Han Dynasty did not have the strength to trouble the Xiongnu.
These two years are a time to recuperate, accumulate food and grass, and refresh internal affairs.
As long as the Huns didn't mess with Liu Che, Liu Che didn't bother to deal with them.
From this point of view, the Huns' proposal is okay.
Let them work as thugs for the Han Dynasty for two years, be a pioneer, and be the vanguard for the king. It is not bad.
So, Liu Che nodded and said: "I agree to this..."
but……
Looking down at the Huns envoy, Liu Che waved his hand and ordered: "Drag him out and kill him!"
"I hate traitors and traitors the most in my life!"
"No!" The warriors immediately stepped forward again, lifted Han Xu up and dragged him outside.
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!" At this moment, Han Xu finally began to really panic. He still had unavenged revenge and unfulfilled ambitions. How could he die now?
He shouted loudly: "I am the official envoy of the Huns. Your Majesty, if you kill the foreign ministers, who will contact the Huns with your Majesty?"
Liu Che turned a deaf ear and sat on the throne, motionless.
As the war between Han and Hungary has developed to this day, the initiative lies entirely in the hands of the Han Dynasty and Liu Che.
In other words, Liu Che could kill the Huns envoys if he wanted to, and bury them if he wanted. Is it possible that the Huns would dare to have any objections?
At that time, one out of three Han envoys sent to the Huns died in the Huns!
Just another traitor? What does it count?
Will the Huns shed tears for him? Will they ignore the policy of begging for peace for the sake of a traitor?
funny!
This is also the embarrassment of all traitors and traitors.
His fellow tribesmen regarded him as an enemy and wanted to kill him.
And the master he took refuge in actually didn't care much about his thoughts and intentions.
It's just a dog.
No matter how good the traitor is, in front of his master, he is just a high-end pet dog.
The owner may like its cleverness and intelligence and throw bones for it to chew on.
But want the owner to fight for it?
hehe……
It’s true that everyone is a dog lover!
"Several deputy envoys, after returning home, please tell your lord that I am a small-minded person and cannot tolerate any criticism. Next time there is a traitor, I will still kill him!" Liu Che faced those who were frightened.
A member of the Northern Huns mission said.
When these guys heard this, they didn't dare to object. Some of them even secretly rejoiced.
Han Xu died like this, but his mission was still accomplished, and they were the ones who benefited.
There were only one or two people who felt deeply resentful and humiliated.
But what can they do?
On the battlefield, the Huns even lost their underwear.
Now, throughout the Northern Xiongnu, there is not only a shortage of young people, but also a shortage of livestock.
The Northern Xiongnu must immediately march westward, capture slaves from the west, and steal wealth and food in order to be able to breathe a sigh of relief.
Otherwise, by next year, if there is not enough replenishment, the entire Hun Empire will fall apart.
You know, in last year's Battle of Yanji, the Xiongnu lost more than just their troops and livestock.
More than half of the land was lost.
Almost the entire Makunan had to give up due to defeat.
Jiquji couldn't stand that bastard, and even stabbed the Huns in the back.
The loss of Hexi caused the Huns to lose their most important pasture, most important place for worshiping heaven, and most important haven.
Therefore, achieving temporary peace with the Han Dynasty was crucial to the survival of the Xiongnu.
The success or failure of trade with the Han Dynasty is more related to whether the Huns can conquer the west!
The reason is very simple. Since the Battle of Gaoque, the Huns lost the Yinshan Mountains, and in the Battle of Yanji, they lost Munan. Moreover, Qilian Mountains, Gaolan Mountains, and Yanzhi Mountains are no longer owned by the Huns.
Even Junji Mountain is crumbling.
Last year, the Huns lost two-thirds of their forests.
This is so critical!
Without the forest, the Huns would not be able to find qualified arrow materials and bow materials!
In the past, one-third of the Huns' arrows came from Yinshan and Yangshan.
The other half comes from the Qilian Mountains, Rouge Mountain and Gaolan Mountain in the Hexi Corridor.
Today, the remaining arrows produced by the Huns in Junji Mountain, Langjuxu Mountain, Jinshan Mountain and other countries in the Western Regions are less than one-third of what they used to be.
If you don’t have arrows, what else can you shoot?
In addition, the loss of these rich forests also caused heavy losses to the Xiongnu's bow and arrow and weapon production.
Without the wild beast resources in these forests, the Huns' weapons sources were severely limited.
Now, the Huns can only get one bow for every three bows they break, and one weapon for every two weapons they lose.
Even this supplement is probably a stone weapon!
There is no way, the Huns' mining technology is too lame.
They can only rely on open-pit mines, and these veins are basically in the Hexi and Munan regions.
The vast Mongolian Plateau is indeed rich in resources.
But the problem is that in another two thousand years, resources will only be abundant.
The resources are abundant and cannot be mined, so what can we do?
Therefore, now it is the Huns who are begging for the Han Dynasty, and it can even be said that they are eager for the Han Dynasty to agree to trade.
…………………………
When Han Xu was dragged to the entrance of Xuanshi Palace by the warriors, he finally knew that the Emperor of Han Dynasty was not playing tricks on him, but indeed wanted him to die.
This caused him to immediately go berserk.
He struggled, roared, and finally began to curse: "Faint lord! Tyrant! I cannot take your head as Jing Ke, but with the courage of Meng Ben, who can hide the sword of fish intestines!"
He thought of his enemies, his father, brother and mother, and the Wang family who broke off the engagement.
He has not avenged all these vengeances, so how can he die?
And his scolding immediately stirred up a hornet's nest.
Not to mention that Liu Che is now a holy king who has realized his destiny. Even if he is an ordinary king, his ministers will humiliate them and die.
Therefore, his mouth was immediately blocked.
He was babbling and struggling wildly.
He was not willing to die like this.
However, the Xiongnu envoys were frightened to death. They immediately knelt down and said tremblingly: "Your Majesty, what this person said has nothing to do with me, the Xiongnu, or my lord!"
Damn it, who dares to do such a thing!
If the Han emperor is angered, at least the Xiongnu's conditions will no longer be realized, and at worst, everyone will die in Chang'an, and their heads may be hung on the tower to blow the wind.
What's more serious is that they angered the Han emperor.
In order to apologize to the Han Dynasty, their children and even their clans might have to take the blame, have their heads chopped off, and be sent to the Han Dynasty to discourage the Han Dynasty people!
There is no way, in today's world, the Han Dynasty has the strongest national power and military power, and it is crushingly powerful.
This angered the Han people and led to an expedition by the Han army. Given the current situation of the Northern Xiongnu, I am afraid that they would not even have the courage to fight. The Chanyu might even flee thousands of miles overnight to avoid the Han army.
Liu Che waved his hand and said: "Bring him back!"
The warrior who had already walked outside the hall heard this and dragged Han Xu all the way to the hall. Then, several long swords were placed on his neck, and someone even kicked him on the waist and pressed him to the floor.
"Do you know why I want to kill you?" Liu Che pushed away the beads and looked at the so-called Huns envoy and asked.
Han Xu struggled, howled, and stared at Liu Che, as if he wanted to remember him deeply.
But the next thing happened, his whole body started to tremble.
The whole person felt like falling into an ice cave.
Of course Han Xu is not stupid, on the contrary, he is quite smart.
If he was not smart enough, how could he escape from the Great Wall and escape to the Huns? If he was not smart enough, how could he be appreciated by the Huns in a short period of time?
But sometimes, being too smart is not good.
Just like now, Han Xu was heartbroken.
Because he thought of a terrible thing, the emperor of the Han Dynasty claimed to be a holy king.
Whether in the government or among the people, there are various legends about his miracles.
Among them, predicting disasters and foreseeing the Xiongnu attack in advance are widely known and recognized as miracles throughout the world!
As for Han Xu, he himself had heard at least dozens of magical stories about the emperor.
Legend has it that on the day he came into the world, something unusual happened in the sky of Chang'an. It is said that a cloud symbolizing the military leader Chi You once appeared to protect the holy king.
There is also a legend that when Emperor Taizong saw this son for the first time, he concluded that after me, this son will be the master. Therefore, he was designated as the heir apparent after a generation, and the late emperor did not dare to disobey.
There is also a fact that is common to all people in the world. When the emperor traveled to the east of the river, Qin Shihuang searched for the treasure tripod all his life but could not find it. It was like having a spiritual intelligence. All kinds of strange things happened and all kinds of noises were made, and there were no dreams to tell him.
This emperor is here, come and dig me out!
Nowadays, in the mouths of people all over the world, the story of the Emperor and Baoding has even spawned several different versions.
What is even more exaggerated is the emperor's subsequent behavior.
Foretell storms, know the Xiongnu's advance route in advance, etc.
So much so that even the Huns were trembling with fear. Countless people quietly erected statues of the emperor in their domes and prayed devoutly morning and night.
It is said that it is truly efficacious.
Those who have no children pray for a long time to have a son, and those who want to pray for good weather, as long as they are pious, the tribe will be free from illness and disaster in the coming year.
So far, when a tribe encounters a crisis or disaster, the first thing many people think of is not to ask a shaman to perform the dance because it is useless.
Instead, he respectfully invited the statue of the God-Emperor of the Han Dynasty, worshiped and prayed with the most solemn etiquette, and begged the omnipotent God-Emperor to take away his magical powers and stop torturing and punishing the poor Huns.
It is said that as long as you are particularly pious and respectful, then under normal circumstances, the God-Emperor has a very broad mind and is willing to forgive a little.
Only those who have committed heinous crimes, do not believe in the power of the God-Emperor, and have blasphemed the God-Emperor cannot be forgiven.
His tribe will fall into hell forever, and diseases, plagues, and ice disasters will accompany these sinners throughout their lives.
Even if they die, their souls will wail in hell forever and suffer all kinds of torture!
All in all, now, the Han and Hungarian people have reached some preliminary consensus on religious beliefs.
And for such a divine emperor, if the legend is true.
How could he not know his existence?
How could he not know that he had cursed and slandered him day and night?
How can you not know what you are doing?
But he delivered it to his door stupidly!
Han Xu is not afraid of death. What he is afraid of is that after death, his soul will be tortured forever, and even his family and ancestors will be implicated.
This is the most terrifying thing!
Thinking of this, Han Xu started kowtowing desperately.
Although it is said that Confucius once taught his disciples not to talk about strange powers and confuse spirits.
But Confucius also taught him the distinction between Hua and Yi and the defense between Yi and Xia.
Didn't he not take it seriously and even treat it as nothing?
…………………………
Liu Che smiled slightly as he looked at the guy who was kowtowing in front of him like a man who was obviously going crazy.
Of course he has no special powers, let alone the ability to read minds.
Just purely understanding some psychology.
If you think about it, most of the former traitors have either quietly escaped back, surrendered themselves, or were simply killed by the Han army.
Among the rest, who dared to come to Chang'an and come to him without any fear?
There are just two kinds of people.
One, like Bank of China said, for some reason, he feels that the whole world owes him a lunatic.
Second, those who have been harmed by Liu Che’s policies and systems over the years.
No matter which type of these two people they are, Liu Che knows that they must have something to fear.
Even if it can't be deceived, it doesn't matter.
They will be dragged out and killed.
If you get it, that’s great!
Looking at it now, the effect is pretty good!
As for traitors, Liu Che felt that no matter what method or method was used, it was all just.
Therefore, Liu Che looked at him and said: "You will be a dog and piggy forever for the rest of your life!"
These words were like a heavy hammer, hitting Han Xu's chest, making him crazy and making him wail.
Because, the emperor's words meant that his suspicion had been confirmed.
This emperor could indeed communicate with ghosts and gods, and even arrange and order ghosts and gods.
And this kind of miracle and authority belongs exclusively to the authority of the Three Kings and Five Emperors.
Yao, Shun, and Yu all once acted as emperors of men and performed the deeds of emperors of heaven!!!
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!" Han Xu spit out the blockage in his mouth desperately, crying and kowtow: "The guilty minister... no! The guilty people have realized their mistake..."
But where would Liu Che be willing to give him a chance? Where would he be willing to give him a chance?
This is the kind of person he wants, who will wander in despair and fear until his death!
"Drag him out and cut him in half!" Liu Che ordered decisively: "Feed his body to the dogs!"
"No!" The warriors immediately took the order and dragged this guy up.
All the ministers looked like they had seen a ghost and couldn't figure out what was going on.
Only those people in the Xiongnu mission who were familiar with Han Xu had their legs trembling and sweating profusely.
Great fear, along with those legends, surged into my heart.
According to legend, the Divine Emperor of the Han Dynasty was an omnipotent and omniscient god!
They immediately knelt down and prostrated on the ground, saying: "Your Majesty, please forgive me. Your Majesty, please forgive me. I beg your Majesty to forgive me..."
