Chapter 990 Rebellion
The chaos around the Xiongnu's right camp did not affect the Hu people below, and it subsided not long after.
How could the unsuspecting Army Sima and a group of personal guards stop the numerous Xiongnu and barbarians led by Liu Meng and Liu Hun?
Jun Sima and others only resisted for a while, and most of them were shot into a hornet's nest.
Those who were lucky enough to escape the arrows were chopped into pieces by the Huns who swarmed up.
Under the last rays of the setting sun, the flag of Wei State, where the Xiongnu's right side was located, fell with a crash.
"kill!"
Liu Hun did not stop and led his tribe to charge down the mountain.
The sudden rebellion of the right wing of the Xiongnu caught the Sima of the Wei army in the center and left by surprise.
A huge gap suddenly appeared in the originally well-defended river valley.
In just a short time, chaos began to arise in the middle of the Xiongnu area directly in front of the river valley.
Guan Ji pulled out her long sword. Behind her, the sun just disappeared into the mountains.
Let her be like a messenger coming out of the darkness.
"what happened?"
On the left side of the Xiongnu who was still stable, Army Sima looked at the Xiongnu on the opposite mountain and kept rushing down the mountain. At the same time, some people tried to shoot arrows towards him.
With just a little bit of afterglow from behind the hilltop, he could see that the Shu captives had begun to charge towards this side on horseback.
Someone is colluding with the Shu captives!
He made this judgment immediately.
“Liu Bao, hurry up, have your people guard the hilltop immediately, and make sure you don’t make any mistakes, otherwise you will be dealt with according to military law!”
Liu Bao, the left commander of the Xiongnu, responded subconsciously, moved his feet, and then stopped hesitantly, his eyes flickering.
Upon seeing this, the army commander immediately urged: "Hurry up and go!"
Liu Bao looked at the hilltop opposite.
Obviously, his nephew has rebelled (Liu Bao is the left Xian king of the Southern Huns, and he is the brother of the right Xian king Liu Qubei).
In other words, he has surrendered to the Han army.
Han army?
Liu Bao suddenly became excited.
“If you delay any longer, I will not dare to kill you!”
Seeing Liu Bao's hesitation, Army Sima was furious and drew his sword.
Liu Bao didn't dare to be lazy anymore and hurried down.
The army commander secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He only felt a little wet on his back.
Compared with the army commander on the right side of the Xiongnu, he was much more sober.
In other words, the rebellion on the right side of the Huns had made him wary.
It's just that the current situation left him no choice.
Only relying on the majesty of the past can force Liu Bao to submit.
Fortunately, I finally succeeded...
Just when the army commander was secretly rejoicing, shouts of killing suddenly rang out from around the commander's tent.
“Kill the thief!”
He turned his head suddenly and saw not far away, Liu Bao was personally leading his tribe to kill him.
The left wing of the Xiongnu also rebelled.
…
The rebellion of the left wing of the Xiongnu not only surprised Wei Guo, but also exceeded Guan Ji's expectations.
The elite cavalry of the Han army, who were originally the protagonists, were finally squeezed out by the three Huns fighting in the melee and became mere bystanders.
This chaos lasted until dark, and finally ended with the two Huns on the left and right joining forces to kill the central ones and flee.
After the chaos was over, the two brothers Liu Meng and Liu Hun couldn't wait to find Liu Bao and sincerely thanked him:
“Thank you uncle for your help!”
Liu Bao's face turned a little foul when he saw these two brothers.
Because he helped the right wing this time, at least half of it was out of necessity.
In other words, he was forced into the water by these two brothers.
If we talk about the five Xiongnu tribes in Bingzhou, the Wei people trust the most in the north.
The two things to be most wary of are the left and right parts.
The commanders of these two divisions were formerly King Zuoxian and King Youxian of the Southern Xiongnu.
It goes without saying that Liu Qubei, the virtuous king of the former right, needs no mention.
The former Zuoxian King Yu Fuluo went south with Liu Qubei, and he was also a figure who rescued the Han Emperor.
More importantly, after Yu Fuluo rescued the Han Emperor, he traveled to the Central Plains and confronted Cao Cao for many years.
Liu Bao, the son of Yu Fuluo, succeeded him as King Zuoxian.
Because of this special historical reason, coupled with the unclear uncle-nephew relationship between Liu Meng and Liu Bao.
So Liu Bao figured out a problem in a very short time:
This rebellion by the right wing will most likely implicate himself in the future.
After all, Liu Bao knows best the attitude of the Wei people towards the Xiongnu in Bingzhou over the years.
Hence, the best outcome for him is most likely to be like his uncle (Hu Chuquan).
He was called to the mainland and was called to accompany the emperor, but in reality he was placed under house arrest.
It was precisely because he thought of this that Liu Bao gritted his teeth and rebelled - who doesn't have the surname Liu?
As for the other half of the reason that prompted Liu Bao to rebel, it was naturally that, like Liu Meng, he was extremely dissatisfied with Bi Gui's bullying of the tribe in recent years.
Liu Bao looked at Liu Hun, frowned and said:
“You are my brother’s younger son, Gao Sheng Ai?”
Liu Hun was not too young when he left the tribe, and Liu Bao could still vaguely recognize him.
Liu Hun nodded.
Liu Bao stared at Liu Hun with a gloomy expression:
"You have been away from the clan for so many years, but you never thought that you would do such great things when you came back."
In the chaos just now, he saw that the soldiers guarding Liu Hun were obviously not from the tribe, and their weapons and armor were much better than those of his own tribe.
In this case, if Liu Bao still can’t see the clues, then he will be in vain as the commander of the left wing.
Liu Hun smiled slightly and said in a neither humble nor arrogant tone:
"My uncle has given me the reward, but he just returned to the Han Dynasty and was named the Marquis of Guiyi by the Emperor of the Han Dynasty."
“Huh? Marquis Guiyi!”
Liu Bao was a little surprised this time, "The emperor of the Han family granted him the title?"
For a long time, with the continuous Chineseization of the Southern Xiongnu, they subconsciously believed that the names given by the emperor of the Han family were much more valuable than the self-proclaimed names within the Xiongnu.
It is a pity that since the rise of the Xianbei people in the grasslands, most of the Hu people who have been named princes are Xianbei people.
The Huns basically bear the original names within the Huns.
Unexpectedly, Liu Hun would have such an opportunity when he went out to travel.
So Liu Bao couldn't help but feel surprised when he learned that Liu Hun actually had the title of Marquis of Guiyi.
Liu Hun raised his head and said, "That's natural. I came back this time for no other reason than to help my people get rid of the bullying of the Wei thieves and live a good life."
Liu Hun has spent so many years in Hanzhong and Liangzhou, and he has a profound understanding of one truth:
The tribes who took the initiative to seek refuge with the Han and the tribes who were forced to seek refuge with the Han were treated in the same way as in heaven and on earth.
For so many years, everyone has been claiming to be the son-in-law of the Han family. What is the purpose?
Don’t you just want to get rid of your identity as a Hu Yi and become a real Han Chinese, no longer suffering from discrimination and oppression?
As a Hun noble, who wouldn’t want to become the second Jin Rixi?
For Liu Hun, the current situation is the best opportunity.
Liu Bao didn't know what Liu Hun was thinking, so he frowned: "What do you mean?"
Liu Hun smiled calmly: "If uncle believes me, then come with me to see General Guan first, and I will talk to my uncle in detail later."
At this point, what’s the difference between Liu Bao’s belief and his disbelief?
So he followed Liu Hun to the Han army camp and paid homage to General Guan.
General Guan did not expect that Liu Hun not only completed the task brilliantly, but even attracted the left side of the Xiongnu.
The backup plan she was asked to prepare was of no use at all.
At the moment, not only did he not hesitate to praise himself, but his stern face even became more smiley.
General Guan did not have much time to win over the uncles and nephews Liu Meng and Liu Bao, because the road to Hedong County had only been halfway traveled so far.
So her way of appeasing the two of them was very simple and crude.
A large handful of notes were thrown out on the spot, plus three pounds of brown sugar and one pound of tea leaves.
It is said bluntly that if the two of them can help the big man, they can take the money to exchange for whatever they want after Chang'an is captured.
Of course, it would be embarrassing if Chang'an was not captured - the money is just a pile of waste paper.
As for the affairs of their tribe, it is even simpler.
Liu Gaoshengai can use his own personal experience to tell them what it means to be a family of Han and Yi - a national policy personally set by the Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty.
If you don’t believe it, there are still a group of naturalized Hu in the Liangzhou army.
Even Yi Congjun can prove that under the rule of the Han Dynasty, their life was much better than that of the Xiongnu in Bingzhou who were deeply oppressed.
What does it mean to have enough food and clothing?
There is no problem for the children of the clan to enter the school to study.
If you can really read your grades, it will not be a dream to be admitted to the Royal Academy.
What, you don’t know what the Royal Academy is?
With the word "royal", how can it be worse?
As soon as he heard it, he knew that he was a disciple of the Emperor of the Han family.
Entering the academy is half a foot into the official career.
This is not called a future, what is a future?
In the past, this was a treatment only available to the children of aristocratic families.
General Guan’s promise was very generous, and she was not needed to fulfill it anyway. Who calls her a successful woman? There must be a good man behind her!
The bright banknotes, heavy brown sugar and tea leaves were the brightest future in hundreds of years. They hit Liu Meng and Liu Bao so hard that they almost fainted.
Liu Hun, who had traveled extensively in Han Dynasty and was quite knowledgeable, could not resist such temptation, let alone two barbarians from Bingzhou who had never seen the world?
This is the dream that the Huns aristocrats have been pursuing for more than two hundred years!
However, seeing that the legs of the two men couldn't help but weaken, they bowed their heads to General Guan.
Two of the most noble men of the Southern Huns knelt in front of General Guan, made **** cuts on their faces with knives, and swore in tears that they would not be at odds with the Wei thieves.
This made General Guan smile with satisfaction, and her eyes fell on the mountains to the east.
The loss of the valley entrance exposed the flanks and rear of the Wei army at the mountain pass to the east to General Guan.
Just when General Guan was about to cut off Sima Huan's retreat, the Han army broke through Yanmen County and blocked Yanmen County in Jiuyuan County. The news that they wanted to go south to capture Jinyang finally reached Luoyang and Chang'an.
This news was like a huge thunderbolt, almost blowing up the Tai Chi Hall in Luoyang.
Cao Rui was sitting on the throne, and his hands were shaking from the moment he picked up the urgent military report sent from Bingzhou.
This is not fear, but disbelief.
After reading the military report, Cao Rui was filled with shock and anger. His face began to turn purple and he was breathing heavily.
He only felt that his hair was standing on end and his forehead was cold.
There are more than 200,000 troops in Guanzhong. They need people, money, and food.
Unexpectedly, in the end, he was led by the Shu captives. Sima Yi was simply incompetent!
I thought that if I lose Bingzhou, let alone Guanzhong, even Luoyang, I am afraid that I will be under the threat of Shu captives all the time.
Cao Rui finally felt a sense of fear in his heart, and his face quickly turned from angry blood red to pale white.
The military newspaper was hit hard at the foot of the stairs. Cao Rui's whole body began to tremble and he screamed:
“Why did the Shu captives come from Yanmen? Did they fly here?”
