Chapter 371: I Want His Head!
"Huvro of the Huns? Isn't he the Zuoxian King of the Huns, when did he become the Shan Yu of the Huns? Ma was shocked, he never thought that Liu Xie would have contact with the Huns at this time!
Since the founding of the Han Dynasty, it has been bullied by the Xiongnu, and it has always been a country of enmity with the Xiongnu. It was not until Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty attacked the Xiongnu in the north for 30 years that the dark clouds that pressed on the head of the Xiongnu were completely dispersed, and the Xiongnu were divided into two factions, the Xiongnu in the north and the south.
According to historical research, the Northern Xiongnu later fled to Mobei, gradually fled westward, and finally penetrated into the hinterland of Europe, which also triggered great changes in European society and changed European history.
The Southern Xiongnu were desperate outside the Saiwai, and after experiencing the encirclement and suppression of the Han Dynasty again and again, their power was greatly reduced. And the tribe has continuous natural disasters and diseases, internal contradictions and crises, resulting in repeated internal strife, and many Shan Yu were betrayed and killed by his subordinates. In the later period, the Southern Xiongnu had no choice but to attach themselves to the Han Dynasty and surrender their vassals.
During the reign of Emperor Ling, the Eastern Han Dynasty court transferred troops to the Xiongnu in order to defeat Zhang Chun's rebellion of Xianbei, and Yu Fuluo sent troops to aid the Han as the commander. But as soon as Yu Fuluo left, a coup d'Γ©tat occurred in the Southern Xiongnu the following year, and Yu Fuluo's father, Qiang Qu Shan Yu, was killed. The participants were afraid of Fu Luo's revenge and did not recognize the status of Fu Luo's new single Yu, so they set up another Su Bu Gu Du Hou as Shan Yu. And Yu Fuluo had no choice but to go to the Han court to complain about his grievances and ask for the assistance of the Han Dynasty as King Zuoxian.
But at this time, it happened to catch up with the Kanto heroes to crusade against Dong Zhuo, the Central Plains was in chaos, and the Han Court was too busy to take care of itself, where was he still in the mood to care about the things on the Xiongnu side. Yu Fuluo failed to appeal, so he led his troops to stay in Han land, and the mixture was very miserable. A while ago, when the Neihuang was wandering, he was attacked by Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, and was defeated and scattered, Yu Fuluo fled to the direction of Liyang, and after escaping from Jizhou, he entered Sili Hanoi County.
But according to Wang Yue's statement today, after Yu Fuluo entered Hanoi County, he did not recuperate in Hanoi like the normal trajectory of history, but wandered to Luoyang again! Moreover, he actually has contact with Liu Xie again?
Historically, Yu Fuluo was ordered to conquer Dong Zhuo, but because the general He Jin was assassinated, he returned to the Han capital. On the way, he happened to meet Liu Xie, who escaped from Luoyang, and he rescued and protected the then King Chen Liu. However, there are only a few records of this in history, and no one knows how far the relationship between Liu Xie and Yu Fuluo developed at the beginning.
"What's on that letter?! Also, How many soldiers and horses does Ivro have? Ma Chao asked sharply, he felt that the situation in front of him seemed to be gradually out of his control.
"The letter is stamped with His Majesty's private seal, sealed in Fuluo as the Southern Xiongnu Shan Yu, and allowed to return to his hometown. But on the condition that he assist His Majesty to gain control of the Han Court! Wang Yue hurriedly finished speaking, cold sweat seemed to break out on his face, and he couldn't help but add: "Although Yu Fuluo was defeated by Cao Cao, there are still more than 20,000 Huns under his command!" β
"20,000 Hun cavalry......" Ma Chao frowned, he really couldn't think of what Liu Xie was going to do with these soldiers and horses!
However, now that Wang Yue and Man Zhong were present, it was not the time for him to show his timidity, Ma Chao tried to calm down, thought of the current Wang Yun's matter, sneered and said: "Wang Yue, before you came, did you see any ambush around Wang Yun in Nanyuan?" β
"This, the subordinates didn't pay attention to it......" Speaking of this, Wang Yue couldn't help but feel a little ashamed: after all, the first time Ma Chao asked him about Liu Xie's letter, he didn't know; This time, when I asked him about it again, he still didn't know anything.
Therefore, Ma Chao couldn't help but said in a cold voice: "Quickly go to Wang Yun's residence to investigate, remember, don't show your traces!" β
Wang Yue resigned after hearing this, but Ma Chao was changing clothes while thinking about a series of strange things today. But no matter what he thought, he didn't have a clue, and it wasn't until Man Pet hurried in and gave him a secret letter that his face showed a real coldness.
At that moment, Ma Chao did not hesitate, directly took out a pen and paper, wrote a letter that no one could understand, and carefully handed it to Man Chong, asking him to find a way to secretly leave the palace later, contact the shadow, and hand it over to Diao Chan......
And after a while, Wang Yue had already returned, his face was a little strange, and he said suspiciously: "There is no ambush in Lord Situ's residence...... Lord, are you doubting that Lord Situ will be against you? β
Ma Chao frowned, and replied coldly: "You shouldn't ask, don't ask more!" Knowing too much won't do you any good! β
Wang Yue's complexion changed sharply, and he said after a while: "It's a subordinate who has Ji Yue, and I ask the lord to punish ......."
Ma Chao took care of Wang Yue, and after learning that Wang Yun did not specially arrange a Hongmen banquet for himself, he thought about it again and again, and decided to go to Wang Yun to meet him. As a result, he quietly walked out of his room alone, and was very careful along the way, and after confirming that there was no one to watch, Ma Chao pushed open Wang Yun's door.
After seeing Wang Yun, Ma Chao's expression had become cold and calm, and he saluted Wang Yun lightly: "Lord Situ is not strange, he is super young and sleepy, and he missed the time, I hope Lord Situ will forgive me......"
But Wang Yun's expression looked very heavy, and he seemed to be a little absent-minded. When he saw Ma Chao coming in, he didn't speak, but took out a piece of wind paper and handed it to Ma Chao for him to see.
Ma Chao looked shocked when he saw it, his originally cold and calm face suddenly became panicked, and he gasped a few times before asking, "Is this really true?" β
"Xu Rong came this morning, and personally told Yun about this matter, there should be no fake ......" Wang Yun's tone was a little decadent and a little depressed, and it seemed that he was shocked by the news that came up and had not yet come to his senses.
There was only a short sentence on the Fufeng paper: Zhuo ordered his nephew Dong Yue to lead 20,000 Xiliang troops into Beijing in Michi the night before yesterday......
"Don't worry, Situ has a plan to break this deadlock." Ma Chao thought for a moment, and looked at Wang Yun with a sneer in his heart, as if he wanted to see how far this drama could go!
From Wang Yun's point of view, Ma Chao's eyes were burning at this time, and it seemed that he had the confidence and contempt to think of a clever plan. Wang Yun didn't suspect anything else, so he quickly asked, "Ma Zhenxi will be released?" β
"As far as Chao knows, Guanzhong has a population of more than 1 million, half of which are Rong Di, and Hungarian and Han are mixed. And these Rong Di did not understand the Han law, and they did not farm, so they had to sell their forces to make a living. In particular, the Huns living in Chang'an were brave and good at fighting, and they have always been favored by the lords of the scholar clan. Lord Situ only needs a secret order, and with your prestige, gather the private soldiers in the hands of the Chang'an Shi clan, I'm afraid there will be at least more than 10,000 people, right? Although these private soldiers may not be able to defeat Dong Yue's troops, they can at least drag it out until Dong Zhuo's death! β
After Wang Yun heard this, his face immediately became a little ugly, but he immediately covered it up well, and was about to say something, but Ma Chao waved his hand and continued: "A certain subordinate also has three thousand parts, and as soon as Dong Zhuo dies, Chao will take Dong Zhuo's head to see Dong Yue and issue a holy decree, Dong Yue will naturally bow his head and call himself a minister......
"General Zhenxi takes it for granted! Then Dong Yuecai, Dong Zhuo's nephew, how could he be demoted to a certain level because of this? Wang Yun replied as a matter of course, but in exchange for Ma Chao's smile.
"Who said we had to ask Dong Yue to surrender? After all, Dong Yue is a foreign official, and although he entered Beijing on the orders of Dong Zhuo, he will inevitably garrison troops abroad. After General Huangfu and General Lu pacified Chang'an and subdued the forbidden army, why should they be afraid of Dong Yue, Duan Xuan and others? β
"So ......" Wang Yun pondered for a long time, looked at Ma Chao in a daze, and finally seemed to have made up his mind and said: "In this way, General Zhenxi may die for nine lives!" β
"It doesn't matter! Chao is an official of the imperial court, and he did not participate in the killing of Dong Zhuo on the surface. Even if Dong Yue was angry, he didn't dare to attack Chao. As long as he has a brain, he knows the reason why Dong Zhuo didn't dare to kill me for such a long time. Ma Chao swore that this look of regret was really a model for the loyal ministers of the Han Dynasty!
But as soon as he came out of Wang Yun's residence, Ma Chao sneered, stared at the mottled and chaotic sky, and secretly said in his heart: Liu Xie, Wang Yun! If it weren't for the fact that I had hidden lines under you, I'm afraid I would really die tragically in Chang'an like my father, and I would have died in vain, right?!
