"Suli, Suli."

Standing in the south of Yecheng, looking south, both sides of the Yellow River are covered in silver. Yan Bei, who was wrapped in a bear collar, frowned slightly, and muttered, "I trust you?" ”

Su Li's refusal to send troops was something Yanbei had not expected, and for many years, although they had not been able to see each other regularly, they had always been the strongest allies between the Han and Xianbei in the northeast. Yanbei brought grain and finely forged bronze ornaments to the Suli tribe, and even some iron living utensils, while the Suli tribe supplied a large number of animal skins, bones and wool to Liaodong every year; Militarily, Su Li had helped Yan Bei to find it difficult to go east, which had brought huge pressure to Gongsun Du, and the Yan clan had also sent troops to counteract the threat brought by the powerful Mica Ministry.

The relationship between them even goes beyond the racial struggle between Han and Xianbei, and it is better to be so close.

Although the status of the two sides seems to have become no longer equal with the Yan clan's rule over Youji, this does not affect the fact that the Suli tribe is still the only tribe among the hundreds of tribes in the Saiwai steppe that is close to the Han Dynasty.

However, at this time, when the Yan clan was interested in annexing the north and uniting the four states, Su Li, the leader of the Xianbei tribe who was sitting on a large grassland outside the Great Wall in the north, refused to provide military assistance to Yanbei. What's more, it was such an excuse for Yan's heart, but it made Yan Bei suspicious.

Because Su Li said in a letter sent to Yecheng from afar that he had seen lobbyists from the Yuan clan in Qingzhou on the northern grasslands, and those Central Plains guests had crossed the Great Wall with a large amount of gold silk and even craftsmen who were good at crafting weapons, and came to visit, hoping that Su Li would be able to send troops to contain the rear of the Yan clan in the coming year.

Su Li's reason was that he was worried that Yuan Shao's lobbyists had crossed the Great Wall and traveled north to Micah and other troops to persuade them to join the Central Plains battlefield, so he wanted to lead his troops to stay in the north for the Yan clan and his tribe to defend against the enemies of the grassland.

Reasonable, reasonable.

But how can Yanbei believe it?

"Convinced?" Yan Bei shook his head slightly, he had galloped back to the mansion, but Suli's letter was still like a big stone pressing in his heart, making him unable to get out of his breath smoothly. "How do I know he's Zhang...... Is he Lu Juan or Peng Yue! ”

Yanbei originally wanted to use the example of Zhang Jaw and Tian Yu, but when he said it, Fang felt that it was not appropriate, but now that he had said that he was not to blame Zhang Jaw in the past, he didn't need to use that incident as a nail, and immediately cited the examples of Lu Juan and Peng Yue. Emperor Gao did not kill Lu Juan, but Lu Juan, the king of Yan, betrayed outside the Saiwai; Peng Yue did not rebel, but was killed by Emperor Gao.

He is not afraid of rebellion, nor is he afraid of killing, he is only afraid of killing the wrong person.

Today, Yanbei can more and more understand why Emperor Gao slowly raised his sword to the humeral generals who fought together. The more they are like them, and every inch of land is personally led by troops, the more they value the land, and no one is allowed to take their own land. Emperor Gao was crowned king one after another, and the eight kings with different surnames finally only lived Wu Rui and was able to seal the fifth generation.

Yanbei is not afraid of the generals' high achievements, because the heart of the soldiers has always been him. But just as Su Li asked Yanbei to write a letter, and even gave birth to the first to lead the troops to conquer the Saiwai to destroy the Su Li Department when the snow melted, why would he, who commanded the five million Han people in Youji, be afraid of Su Li's small tribe of only tens of thousands of people?

Because all he has is the friendship of Suli, and the heart of the humble is not in him.

Just like Goguryeo, Buyeo, and Wuhuan, Xianbei is a foreigner!

"General, I'm afraid Su Li's words ......" Just when the shogunate officials looked at each other and no one dared to speak, Guo Jia walked quickly into the lobby of the general's mansion wearing a fox fur, handed over the two letterboxes, and gasped and said: "It's true, this is a secret letter just sent from the north today, Wuhuan passed the book on behalf of Yu Dun, there are changes outside the plug, Micah gathered tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in the eastern part of Xianbei, and intends to enter the eastern part of Kouyoudong!" ”

Yan Bei didn't have any waves on his face, and he quickly opened the letter box with a movement in his hand, took out the animal skin letter from the Wuhuan Kingdom, and slowly read it word by word. Badun also saw Yuan Shao's lobbyist in the subject country, and was dragged ten miles by him on a horse's tail and died, but then the Wuhuan people who entered the subject country from outside the Saiwai for winter brought back the news that there was a change outside the Saiwai, except for the eastern Xianbei under the Suli tribe, they all received a letter from the eastern lord Micah, and gathered a huge army on the grassland.

Badun sent a message to remind Yanbei to be careful.

"I have passed the warning letter to Youzhou, and I hope that the soldiers and soldiers of all counties and counties in Youzhou will strictly guard the city in case there is a change." Guo Jia said, but when he looked up, he saw that Yan Bei did not panic or even make any movements, but slowly put down the animal skin letter, picked up another letter and held it in his hand, and slowly asked Guo Jia: "Fengxiao, if this letter is also fake, what should you do?" ”

What the?

Two letters in succession, from the two major foreign leaders who belonged to the Yan clan, Yan Bei still didn't believe it? Guo Jia looked up in disbelief, in his insight, Yanbei was not this kind of person who did not distinguish between right and wrong, and was about to say something, but when he heard Yanbei continue to speak, he asked him in a somewhat hoarse voice: "Fengxiao, you should know what it means if these two letters are true." Yan would rather they be fake. ”

What could have such a terrible price that Yan Bei would rather believe that more than 100,000 Wuhuan and 30,000 Xianbei rebels would not accept the truth?

Guo Jia could only smile bitterly, Yuan Shao's lobbyists appeared north of the Great Wall, and there was only one possibility that they could cross Youji - there were traitors and betrayers in Jizhou or even Youzhou. "General, this can only be true, you better take a look at another letter, from Liaodong."

In the letterbox, it is a letter sent by Liaodong Taishou, Yanbei's younger brother Yandong, and there is no change in the north here, only one...... In Liaodong, there were wealthy clans who fornicated with the Yuan clan and used their merchant ships and chariots and horses to lead the Yuan clan through Youzhou to Saiwai. After the incident, the Hao clan was in civil strife, and the young clansmen who served as the military marquis of Xiangping led the army to besiege their own Wu Fort, and captured and executed the elders close to the Yuan family.

Before this disaster, Yan Dong had been assassinated twice, and in order to avoid Yan Bei's worry, he did not send a message to Ye.

And the surname of that wealthy family is koji, the koji of kojiyi.

In this way, everything makes sense. After meeting Yuan's lobbyist, Su Li and Bun Don send a warning to prove that they are still loyal to the disloyal Koji clan.

"Does Koji know about this? Forget it, send a letter to him, don't say that there are changes in the north, just say that someone in the clan secretly communicates with the Yuan clan and has been executed, summon him to Yecheng to see me. Yan Bei's face looked gloomy, "In addition, send someone to tell Gao Ran about this matter secretly, and let Gao Ran send someone to inform Zhao Yun." ”

Staff member Sun Zong arched his hand and asked in a low voice: "General Ruoji leads the army to Ye?" ”

Before he finished speaking, Yan Bei's complexion changed greatly, and his usual tone finally couldn't suppress the anger in his heart, and his palm slammed the case in front of him, and said angrily: "He dares!" ”
