In the barracks at the foot of Qipanling, Tian Xin was meditating around a volume of 'Xianbei Western Map'.

This winter, with the rapid defeat of Wei Zhengxi, the general of Wei Zhengxi and Wu Zhen, the governor of Yongliang, who was in Hetao, Hexi, and Monan, the news spread to Hexi and Hetao, which immediately triggered a new round of turmoil in Xianbei in the west.

This kind of turmoil and strife is just a normal winter fight, but it can get out of control and get out of control.

The reason for the loss of control was that the Wei army united with the eastern Xianbei departments to annihilate the most powerful central Xianbei main force, so that the western Xianbei lost the pressure to maintain superficial harmony, and the internal annexation demand grew rapidly.

Compete, fight, and choose the strongest leader is the best way to solve the current dilemma.

Whether it was the victory of the Han army or the victory of the Wei army, it formed great pressure on the Xianbei tribes.

This pressure is both military and brutal and natural...... Natural disasters are impossible to resist and can only be avoided, but the Wei army and the Han army can fight one by one, so naturally they can't move and take refuge in the Wenrun territory controlled by the Han and Wei?

So what to do?

I can't think of a solution for the time being, so I have to fight first, either merge with others or be annexed by others, and when the forces are combined, I can always think of a way to break the game...... We can't wait obediently for the grasslands to be wiped out by cruel nature, or swept and requisitioned by the Wei and Han armies.

So this winter, Tuoba Xianbei was active...... In the time when Beifu had not yet crossed the Xiao Pass, the Western Xianbei completed the division of the camp in the tripartite strangulation of the Dou Clan's Wulu Hui Division, the Tuoba Division, and the Western Xianbei Leader Putou.

Putou is close to Cao Wei and recognized by Cao Wei as the leader of the Xianbei in the west, and is an important force to contain the Xianbei leader in the central part of the country.

With the collapse of the main force of Kebineng, Putou also accelerated the integration of the western Xianbei, and the first to be attacked by him was the Tuoba tribe that continued to move westward from the Great Xianbei Mountain, and the Tuoba tribe had experienced two great migrations.

Because of its weakness, it was able to occupy the land of the Hetao where the Xiongnu rose and was able to grow rapidly.

Putou wanted to annex this Xianbei, which was originally in the east, but kept moving westward, according to the report of Dou Bin, the lord of the Wulu Hui Department, it was inferred that Putou wanted to occupy the Hetao in the land of the Xiongnu Wangxing, so he made a move against Tuoba Xianbei.

Tuoba Xianbei had a split a few years ago, and now the chief's eldest son, Bald Pigu, led his men to make a third large-distance migration to Hexi, forming Hexi Xianbei and occupying the pastures that had been vacated after the two Hexi wars.

Therefore, the Tuoba Xianbei force left behind is somewhat weak, the so-called Tuoba Xianbei, refers to the Xianbei tribe formed by the mixed blood of the father Xianbei and the mother Xiongnu, which is different from the Yuwen Department of the father Xiongnu and the mother Xianbei; Therefore, Tuoba Xianbei does not refer to a tribe developed and evolved by a family, but a small alliance of tribes with similar customs, cultures, and bloodlines.

The core tribe in this small alliance is the rope head of the Tuoba family, the so-called rope head, which refers to the fact that they still maintain the customs of the Great Xianbei Mountain, and like to tie braids, rope-like hair, that is, the rope head.

Even if the bald Pi Gu didn't lead the troops to leave, the Tuoba Department couldn't beat Putou, and now the bald Pi Gu has gone away to develop his own tribe, and the Tuoba Xianbei left behind is not Putou's opponent.

In order to survive, the small alliance of Tuoba Xianbei was attached to Dou Bin, the master of the Wulu Hui Division, who was also entrenched in the Hetao, and the western Xianbei immediately turned from a three-way confrontation to a two-way rivalry.

At present, the situation between the two sides is generally evenly matched, but there is a tradition of interfering with nomadic tribes since the pre-Qin period...... Putou is also the Xianbei leader close to Cao Wei, in order to strengthen Putou, make Putou cause trouble for the Han army, and contain the main force of the Han army, so after the ice and snow melt, the Xianbei and Wuhuan tribes controlled by Cao Wei will definitely gather troops to support Putou.

The Han and Wei battles have begun to radiate outward, so that the western Xianbei, which should have recuperated and grown, was immediately shrouded in the flames of war.

Unable to sit idly by and watch Putou obtain Cao Wei reinforcements, after Dou Bin and Tuoba Liwei, the leader of Tuoba Xianbei, united with Tuoba Liwei, he asked for help from the Han army in Guanzhong and asked for attachment.

And the messenger sent by Dou Bin ...... It was Ma Dai's father, Ma Yi.

Naturally, Ma Yi also focused on the development process of this Dou tribe, which was a group of Dou relatives who fled abroad and relied on the prestige of Dou Xian Yanran to gain a foothold in the borderland.

In the chaos of the Central Plains, many people fled to the outside of the Saiwai in desperation, choosing to attach themselves to the Dou clan, so this is a typical tribe formed by Han and Hu mixed settlements.

Now it is not easy for the Xianbei tribes to survive, and there are not so many scholars who quote scriptures and classics for the Xianbei tribes to create a ritual system and related terms.

For example, the word Iron Buddha has not yet formed an established meaning.

Now what is in front of us is how to deal with this problem, and the loyalty and gratitude proclaimed by the nomadic tribes in the border areas and outside the fortress are innumerable.

For example, Putou, on the one hand, took the support of Cao Wei and used Cao Wei's prestige to unify the weak and scattered tribes in the west, and had the posture of coercing the official seal of the Great Wei to order the various departments. But this person also sent people to Guanzhong to ask for attachment, which is the routine operation of nomadic tribes.

As for whether Dou Bin and Tuoba Liwei expressed similar wishes to Cao Wei...... It's something that can't be judged, there may or may not be.

In addition, supporting the civil war in Xianbei in the west will affect the overall recuperation plan of Guanzhong.

If the investment is too large, the fragile economy will not be able to be established, and even the bamboo basket will be empty, and in the end it will not be able to control the Hetao, nor can it control the Xianbei in the west, and even Guanlong may enter exhaustion because of this.

With the current productivity of Guanzhong, it cannot support a nomadic tug-of-war...... This war is fraught with uncontrollable factors.

At present, there are not many dangers that can be seen, mainly various uncontrollable factors, which will lead to more dangerous situations.

Unless we recuperate for a year, so that the basic economic environment in Guanzhong is formed, we can provide limited support to Dou Bin and Tuoba Liwei, so that the civil war in Xianbei in the west can be prolonged.

As long as it is consumed, Guanlong's growing productivity is the sharpest sword, and sooner or later it will be able to achieve the results of Xianbei in the west; The worst is that it can also stabilize the basic market of Guanlong...... It's a big deal, in the future, we will send troops to the Hetao and collapse the western Xianbei.

So this is a seemingly important event, but it is actually a stubble event.

After all, no matter how powerful Putou is, after swallowing Dou Bin and Tuoba Liwei to occupy the Hetao, they may not dare to send troops to harass Guanzhong.

Even...... After Putou occupied the Hetao and became the de facto leader of the Xianbei in the west, he would instead jump left and right between the Beifu and Wei armies in order to maintain his own status and presence.

This battlefield must not be easily interfered with, and Beifu's plan to recuperate in Guanlong must not be interfered with.

Just like Lumen Mountain, there can be support in terms of speech...... Actual support can not be given.
