The next day, in the morning, [Ding[dian] said [Xiao],
The Xiongnu was making things difficult for Xu Budiao, so he took his envoys and walked into the Xuanshi Palace, the central power center of the Han Dynasty.
"The great foreign minister Xubu Diao Nan is here to congratulate the Han Emperor on his enthronement!" Xu Bu Diao Nan knelt down respectfully and bowed to the ground with the etiquette of the Xiongnu. Then he took out a letter of credence written on a wooden slip. , presented it in his hand, stood up, and said: "This is the national document written by my lord, the great Xiongnu Zhengli Gutu, and I present it to the emperor for inspection!"
Liu Che waved his hand, and a eunuch immediately ran down, took the certificate, and handed it over to Liu Che.
Liu Che took the wooden slip and glanced at it.
It is exactly as recorded in the history books. The Huns' national documents are one foot and two inches long and about the same width.
The first paragraph when I look up is extremely arrogant - the Xiongnu Great Chanyu, who is born in the place where the heaven and earth are born and the moon is placed, respectfully asks the Han Emperor.
The Bank of China said that the traitor taught the Huns to create this form of credential.
The purpose was to humiliate the Han Dynasty monarchs and ministers.
But, as the saying goes, if you come out to mess around, you will have to pay it back sooner or later!
In history, the little pig later avenged this arrow!
He not only severely taught and retaliated against the Huns on the battlefield, but also humiliated the Huns to the bone in his diplomatic credentials.
This is what Xiaozhu said - The head of the South Vietnamese king has been hung at the northern gate of the Han Dynasty. Now that the Chanyu can fight, I will wait by the side. If I can't, I will go to the south and become a vassal. Why bother to go far away and hide in the cold and dry land of the northern desert without water or grass? Why!
What’s even more dramatic is that the Huns’ Chanyu was so courageous that he didn’t even dare to say a harsh word. He just watched the Han envoy who sent the message leave the Chanyu Ting in a swaggering manner! - Yi Zhixie The future Xiongnu Chanyu can be said to be worse than a crab.
Wu Wei, that weakling, once wanted to simply surrender, and the situation was even worse. He actually said, "My son, how dare you look at the Emperor of the Han Dynasty. The Emperor of the Han Dynasty, my father-in-law can do it." He clearly put himself in the Han Dynasty. minister's position.
Liu Che didn't think that he, a man of three generations, with a solid foundation laid for him by two generations of emperors of the Han Dynasty, and the support of his subjects, could not play a game like Little Pig with such a good set of cards!
So Liu Che didn't bother to read the specific content of the credentials. He smiled slightly and said: "Please convey my greetings to the Xiongnu Chanyu..."
Now, the military strength of the Xiongnu far exceeds that of the Han Dynasty.
The Han Dynasty was still in the strategic defense stage.
Liu Che knew very well that now was not the time to start a war.
Therefore, he still knows how to be polite and polite on the surface.
Xu Bu Diao Nan bowed slightly and said: "Foreign ministers are supporting the plowing of Gutu on behalf of the great Xiongnu. Thank you very much for the emperor's greetings!"
Although the words were polite, his attitude was extremely arrogant. He just barely turned his nostrils into the sky.
The ministers in the palace looked at each other with angry expressions.
But Liu Che waved his hand and didn't take it seriously - if he were to put himself in someone else's shoes, he was a Huns, and when he saw that the new member of his old enemy's family was a teenage boy, he would do the same.
Not for anything else, just to test that stupid kid's character and personality.
Strategic temptations like this are common in history books.
Even in later generations, between the Celestial Dynasty and the Emperor of the United States, there would often be such deliberately provocative tests, just to find out how powerful the new commander-in-chief (general secretary) of the other party was.
To be honest, this time the Huns sent an envoy instead of an army to test, which was beyond Liu Che's expectation!
Liu Che had already made preparations to mobilize the militia in Guanzhong and border counties to deal with the Huns' invasion.
Since the Huns did not want to use weapons, Liu Che naturally welcomed them.
Of course, Liu Che knows very well that a person's weakness can only make people think that you are easy to bully.
Only by showing muscles can war be deterred!
Therefore, he arranged a unique welcoming banquet for this Xiongnu delegation.
Liu Che smiled slightly and said: "Your envoy has come just in time. I will be observing the troops in Shanglin Garden tomorrow. Your envoy might as well go with me!"
Since the Mohists began to serve the Han Dynasty again, Liu Che has used Yang Yi to recruit nearly a hundred Mohist disciples.
Once these people were combined with Shaofu's machines, they immediately achieved unprecedented efficiency.
To this day, Mohist scholars, with the help of Shaofu craftsmen and military generals, have successfully invented two new weapons and improved many of the Han Dynasty's main battle weapons in service.
Among them are two prestigious weapons, the Dahuang Crossbow and the Repeating Crossbow.
According to Liu Che's order, these new weapons will first be equipped in the northern and southern armies.
During this time, there happened to be a Sima from the Confederate Army who had finished changing his uniform.
Seven hundred Mo knives and five hundred repeating crossbows, the firepower unleashed will tell all those who dare to provoke the Han Dynasty that you are seeking death!
Xu Bu Diao couldn't hear the words, and naturally he would not refuse such a close observation of the Han army.
He then said respectfully: "The emperor has an invitation, and the foreign ministers dare not refuse!"
Liu Che laughed and said: "Then please go back and rest first. Tomorrow, I will have someone come and take your envoy to Shanglin Garden to observe!"
With such a good opportunity to show off the muscles of the Han family, Liu Che naturally invited more than just the Huns.
He also invited King Zhenfan, King Mahan and other kings of small countries who were currently in Chang'an.
In addition, Liu Che also invited another "Hongnu" mission without moral integrity.
Of course, in terms of arrangements, Liu Che effectively isolated the two missions, and it was basically certain that neither side would have the opportunity to contact the other.
"No!" Xu Bu Diao Nan bowed respectfully and rarely spoke in Chinese. (Note)
After Xu Bu Diao Nan and his entourage retreated, Liu Che waved his sleeves, smashed the Xiongnu credential on the ground, and said angrily: "The Emperor Gao left me with the worries of Pingcheng, and the Empress Gao Shan Yu Shu Jue Bo
Ni, the two generations of emperors Taizong and Renzong endured the humiliation. Today the Huns have humiliated me again. In the past, Duke Xiang restored the vengeance of the ninth generation. The spring and Autumn period will be great. I swear that I will make the Huns know what it means to reap melons and beans.
bean!"
This is an attitude that he, the emperor, must express!
The Han people are fierce, especially the Emperor Liu!
In the fourteenth year of Emperor Xiaowen's reign, Emperor Taizong of Liu Che's grandfather, the Huns tore up the marriage agreement and invaded. The emperor was personally in armor, sent three auxiliary troops, and appointed three generals. He also appointed Lieutenant Zhou She as the general of the guard, and ordered Zhang Wu to
As a general of chariots and cavalry, he stationed in Weibei and collected 1,000 chariots and 100,000 infantrymen. Emperor Taizong Xiaowen personally drove to Weibei to teach the soldiers, condolences to the officers and soldiers, and inspire the fighting spirit of the soldiers and civilians. He even insisted on
The imperial chariot marches in person.
If it weren't for Empress Dowager Bo's intervention, Han and Hungary would have gone into full-scale war that year!
Therefore, for the Liu family, it is politically correct to inherit the legacy of Emperor Taizong Xiaowen and collect blood debts from the Xiongnu. Even the most determined peace advocates cannot set up obstacles on this issue. The most they can say is that they are not strong enough and cannot
It's time to start a war or use the weapon as a weapon, nonsense that a saint has to do as a last resort.
Therefore, as soon as Liu Che said these words, the main war factions naturally shouted and cheered.
Even the Lords and factions could only advise: "Your Majesty, please temporarily suspend your thunderous wrath. This is not the time to start a war..."
Liu Che glanced at the ministers and knew that the play should be just right up to this point, but if it continued any further, it would be too much.
So he said: "I know, that's why I have to endure the humiliation and bear the burden. However, one day, I will personally hold the Xiongnu Chanyu in front of my steps to hold him accountable!"
This is not rhetoric, but a political signal.
Liu Che just wanted to use this to tell the nobles in Chang'an to read military books and practice martial arts with me!
Fighting chickens and lackeys all day long, being careful on the battlefield, if you are destined to go or not to come back! - A completely different feature of the Han Dynasty and later dynasties is that once a war breaks out, the top nobles and princes must go to battle to kill the enemy.
This is a tradition inherited from the pre-Qin era.
Therefore, no matter how idiotic the princes are, they all have military experience.
Even the Pingyang Hou Cao family, which is famous for its three-generation single inheritance and is famous for its sick rice seedlings, wore armor and went into battle during the Xiaozhu period.
Cheng Yu, the son of Princess Liu Piao of Guantao, has now served as a captain in the Northern Army.
The Empress Dowager Dou's family members have also served in the army, and many of the Dou family members are even active soldiers themselves.
For example, Nanpi Marquis Dou Pengzu had just resigned from his position as Changle Palace Guardsman.
The current general Dou Ying is indeed an active soldier.
The nobles at the upper level are so martial, and you will know what the situation is like for the people at the bottom.
This is why the Han Dynasty alone was destroyed by force!
The Liu Dynasty is, in essence, a war machine! (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature for better and faster novels!
