The kings of Wuhuan were somewhat prepared for the change of court discussed by Qiu Liju. After all, Yuan Shao's current situation was not very good, and since Cao Cao and the pottery merchants entered Hebei, the relationship between Yuan Shao and Wuhuan had deteriorated. It's not as close as before.
The most important thing is that Qiu Liju's Lao Laizi, Prince Lou Ban, is currently in the hands of a pottery merchant.
In this world, there is nothing more serious than a son falling into the hands of others.
King Qulu of Wuhuanqu asked Qiu Liju: "Da Shanyu, according to your wishes, what should we do next? Which prince should we seek refuge with?"
Qiu Liju sighed: "Nowadays, among the princes, in terms of strength, the person with the strongest military force and the most righteous name is the Tao family of Xuzhou. The Tao merchant deposed the three princes, established himself as prime minister, and supported the emperor. He represented the Han Dynasty. The royal family is orthodox... I think we, Wuhuan, should join the pottery merchants."
When the kings heard this, they were not surprised. It seemed that they had expected this.
What Qiu Liju just said was basically nonsense. In fact, the reason why he wanted Wuhuan to join the pottery business was very simple...it was because his son Lou Ban was in the hands of the pottery businessman.
Everyone was silent for a while, then saw the Wuhuan Qu Wang asking: "But in the eyes of the Han people, we Wuhuan attacked the capital and caused the death of the emperor. If the Han Dynasty wants to accept us, I am afraid that there will be consequences for this matter." The superior asked us for an explanation, what should be done about this matter?"
King Wuhuanqu's question hit the nail on the head, and this is what the leaders of the Three Kings of Wuhuan tribe are most concerned about at the moment.
Qiu Liju's turbid old eyes scanned the crowd, and finally set his sights on Su Buyan.
"King Qiao, the Emperor of Han was killed by your own troops back then. Do you have any solution to this matter?" Qiu Liju asked slowly.
These words can be described as extremely sinister.
What is "unauthorized driving of troops"?
You were clearly the one who ordered me to go there? Where did you come from?
Upon hearing these words, all the tribal kings present probably understood what Qiu Liju was thinking. They couldn't help but sigh secretly.
And Su Buyan's eyes when he looked at Qiu Liju were like thousand-year-old cold iron.
"What does the Great Chan mean by these words? I don't understand? What does the murder of the emperor have to do with me?"
Qiu Liju let out a long sigh and said: "How come it has nothing to do with you? You were the one who attacked Fan County, and you were the one who killed the Emperor of the Han Dynasty. In the hearts of Prime Minister Tao and the scholars of the Han Dynasty, you are The sinner of the entire Han Dynasty... Now if I, Wuhuan, want to re-alliance with the Han Dynasty, must I give an explanation for this matter? "
Su Buyan's expression was neither humble nor arrogant, and said: "How does the Great Chanyu want us to explain?"
Qiu Liju waved his hands helplessly and said: "If you ask me about this matter, how can I answer you? I think that I can only send you to the Han Dynasty and hand it over to Prime Minister Tao himself. During the trial, if you have any unspeakable secrets or grievances, Prime Minister Tao was known as a gentleman in the Han Dynasty, so he will definitely make a righteous decision..."
"Snapped!"
When he finished speaking, Su Buyan had already kicked the table in front of him and sneered: "Da Shanyu, if you send me to the Han Dynasty now, wouldn't it be like taking my life?"
Qiu Liju stood up slowly, stared at Su Puyan and said, "The implication of King Qiao's words seems to be that he is dissatisfied with my decision?"
Su Buyan snorted coldly and said: "I am loyal to the Great Chanyu, as evidenced by the sun and the moon, but now that things are urgent, the Great Chanyu has abandoned me like cattle and sheep. How can I be convinced? ?”
Murderous intentions are gradually growing in the king's tent, and a pair of colleagues who seem to be in harmony but are inseparable from each other are facing each other tit for tat, plotting against each other.
The other kings looked at the two of them back and forth, feeling chilled in their hearts.
Today's meeting in the king's tent doesn't look simple.
Qiu Liju took a deep breath and said, "Since King Qiao doesn't agree with my opinion, don't blame me for being ruthless."
Qiu Liju was smiling, and there was a coldness in his smile.
His eyes were fixed on Su Buyan, like a hungry wolf staring at its prey, eager to tear the prey into pieces.
As he finished speaking, Qiu Liju suddenly stood up and threw the ox-horn wine baron on the table in front of him on the ground.
Outside the king's tent, a group of Qiu Liju's soldiers opened the tent curtain and rushed in.
Su Buyan took out the scimitar he carried at his waist.
At the same time, the soldiers who came with him also rushed into the king's tent and confronted Qiu Liju's soldiers.
Qiu Liju narrowed his eyes and growled: "Su Puyan, now that things have happened, are you still stubborn?"
Su Buyan laughed and said: "Da Chanyu, don't think that I am afraid of you because I am on your land. I am not afraid to tell you the truth. My 30,000 elite troops are waiting not far away, just waiting for us."
If there is a fight here, they will wait for an opportunity to steal the camp, Da Chanyu! Today it is not that you capture me and give it to the pottery merchant, but that I replace you and become the lord of Wuhuan!"
Qiu Liju stood up suddenly and shouted hoarsely: "Get this traitor!"
…
Not far from King Wuhuan's tent, Guo Jia and Zhang Yan had made an alliance with Tadun's soldiers and horses. The troops from both sides were hiding in the dark, and sent scouts from time to time to inquire about the situation at King Wuhuan's tent.
movement.
The scouts kept reporting back, and the war in King Wuhuan's tent was gradually escalating.
There was a serious conflict between the troops of Qiu Liju and Su Puyan in the king's tent.
Immediately afterwards, Su Puyan had arranged and prepared the troops and horses to forcefully attack the stronghold.
The conflict between the two sides in the royal tent gradually escalated and turned into a fierce coup-like battle within the Wuhuan army. Moreover, many Wuhuan tribal leaders were also involved in the royal tent discussion... The situation was very critical.
Guo Jia listened to the message brought back by the scouts with a smile, nodded with satisfaction, then turned to ask Tadun: "Chanyu, according to your opinion, in this competition, who is Su Buyan or Qiu Liju?"
Will your chances of winning be better?"
Tadun thought for a while and said: "A large single is better than a large number of soldiers, and Su Puyan's men are brave. Comparing the two, it's really hard to tell the difference!"
Guo Jia nodded with satisfaction and said: "This is best. Let them fight for a while. When the other two armies are exhausted, we will take advantage of the situation and fight over. General Zhang will deal with Su Puyan and Qiu for you.
Liju, Shanyu, your soldiers and horses, go to protect the tribal royal families who are trapped in the war and are at a loss what to do, and establish their prestige... When the matter is completed, Guo will help you ascend the throne of the Great Chanyu in the name of the Prime Minister!"
Tadun's blood boiled all over after hearing this, and he felt an indescribable feeling of relief in his heart.
He never thought that one day he could become a great Chanyu... Although he had never thought about it before, when this great good thing happened to him, he couldn't help but feel excited.
Tadun cupped his hands towards Guo Jiayi and said: "Thanks to Prime Minister Tao's love and Guo Weiwei's help, when the matter is completed, I will sincerely join the Han Dynasty, submit to the Prime Minister, make contributions to the Han Dynasty, and solve problems for the Prime Minister. Whenever the Prime Minister has something to do,
Just say hello, and I, the king, will have nothing to fear even if you are exposed to mountains of swords and seas of fire."
Guo Jia nodded with satisfaction and said, "If the Prime Minister knew that Shanyu was so loyal, he would be greatly relieved."
Less than an hour later, after the scouts brought back information about the battle between Qiu Liju and Su Puyan, Guo Jia decided that it was almost time to send troops to Wuhuan Royal Court.
After the Southern Xiongnu, another foreign tribe will be controlled by the potters!
