Yuan Shao, the father of Fanghua in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 20 The Xiongnu Going North is full of doubts
Wu Zhao heard this, and said in a low voice, "The Huns are also ghosts and gods."

At that time, although the Han and the Huns attacked each other, there were different opinions on the origin of the Huns, and there has been no conclusion.

Even the Huns themselves were vague about their ancestors.

"Historical Records" believes that the Xiongnu were originally Shan Rong, Xuan Xun, and meat porridge. The Rong and Di of that time, and the Hu of the Warring States period were all the so-called Xiongnu in later generations.

Some Huns considered themselves descendants of Dayu, so they called themselves "Xia people", which shows that it is possible that in ancient times, some ethnic groups of the Huns had the same origin as the Huaxia nation.

Although there are many controversies, later generations generally believe that the Huns in the Han Dynasty were not a single nation, let alone a unified language, and may have included different languages ​​such as Turkic, Mongolian, Yenisei, Tocharian, Iranian, and Uralic. .

The Huns also call themselves Hu people. The name of the Huns may be a derogatory term for them, or it may be because "Xiongnu" and "Hu" are both the pronunciation of "human" in Turkic and Mongolian.

However, no matter what the facts are, the entanglement between the Han Dynasty and the Xiongnu has lasted for hundreds of years, and the killing and enmity between them can no longer be stopped, just like when the Yellow Emperor Chi You attacked, only one side can be eliminated before the war can be stopped.

Yuan Xi listened to Wu Zhao's words and said with a smile: "The theory of ghosts and gods is illusory. I told the soldiers to report my name when digging the tomb. If there is retribution, it will come to me."

We materialist fighters are not afraid of this!
"I also took the lead in digging the first few Hun tombs."

"In a Xiongnu noble tomb, in addition to the armor, there are often dozens of corpses of Han women's clothes."

"Even so, does the girl think it's inappropriate to dig their graves?"

Wu Zhao heard this, and said softly, "Even big men have the system of burial."

After hearing this, Yuan Xi was silent for a while, and then said softly: "Not necessarily everything in the Han Dynasty is correct."

Wu Zhao opened his eyes wide in surprise.

Qu Yi was driving the car in front, and upon hearing this, a complex and incomprehensible smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Only now did Yuan Xi realize that he had made a slip of the tongue. He was a little surprised. How could he confide such words so easily?

Although Wu Zhao has good facial features, but after all, her face is not very attractive for people to look at directly. The reason why Yuan Xi is willing to talk to her is because of her extraordinary insight and gentle conversation, which makes Yuan Xi feel that it is of great benefit.

Wu Zhao seemed to have seen Yuan Xi's thoughts, and hurriedly said: "I have no intention of criticizing the general, what the general does is for others, and I respect him very much."

"I'm just worried that after the Huns know about it, they will come to revenge on the general."

After hearing this, Yuan Xi smiled and said, "I'm not the only one who dug their graves."

"The Biography of Wuhuan Xianbei in the Book of the Later Han Dynasty" contains: During the reign of Emperor Zhao, Wuhuan became stronger and stronger, so he sent the Huns Shanyu tombs to repay Maodun's grievances.The Xiongnu was furious, and Naidong defeated Wu.

At this time, Wuhuan, who had always been a subordinate of the Huns, recovered his strength and repaid Maodun's grievances by digging up the ancestral graves of the Huns. There were also wars between the two sides from time to time.

"Besides, Liangzi on both sides of the Xiongnu in the Han Dynasty had already married, and I killed their Shanyu's son, what are you afraid of?"

Wu Zhao heard it, and said solemnly: "I have been captive for several months, and I can understand some of their words. When I was forced to play music in the camp, I heard their northbound route, but it is a bit unreasonable."

When Yuan Xi heard this, he became interested and said, "I also ask the girl for advice."

Wu Zhao nodded and said, "The Royal Court of the Southern Huns is not located outside the Great Wall, but in Bingzhou."

"The current Southern Xiongnu Chanyu Yufulo, although he is under the supervision of the Great Han Liao General and Hun Hun Zhonglang, and belongs to the Great Han in name, but now that the Han court is in chaos, Liu Bao, as the son of Shan Yu, was able to go south to plunder, which shows that the Southern Xiongnu has already out of control."

"They dare to openly plunder in the hinterland of the big Han. They are not afraid of the Han court. They are not only brave, but they may also rely on them."

"The concubine guessed that they went north from Youzhou, Jizhou, instead of returning to Bingzhou from Zuofengyi, which is closer. It seems unreasonable, but it is very likely that they have established some relationships, so they can rest assured to take this route."

"If the Southern Xiongnu learned that the general had killed Liu Bao, they might not retaliate. This place is located at the junction of secluded land and is only a few hundred miles away from the Huns' royal court, so it may arrive in no time."

"What worries me even more is that the mastermind colluding with the Southern Huns is likely to be in the south of the son, such as Zhang Yan's black mountain bandits."

"If Beixincheng is attacked by the enemy, it will be difficult to prepare for it. I hope you will prepare early."

Qu Yi listened in front, heheed, and said, "Your Master, who saves a girl at random, has such insight?"

"This girl knows better than the subordinates I lead!"

Yuan Xi thought to himself that he might have picked up the treasure, and Wu Zhao might have been an attendant in the palace of some court official, so he was so familiar with the general situation of the world.

From this point of view, there is a problem in the south, and there is a problem in the north.

Because according to Dong Zhao's guess, Gongsun Zan may also have colluded with the Southern Huns!

The route of Liu Bao's group may pass through Beixin City from the west, and then take Wuruan Pass, which is more than a hundred miles away in the north, to reach Beyond the Great Wall.

The point is, the current Wuruan Pass is under the control of Gongsun Zan. Under normal circumstances, how can Liu Bao and his group get by?
Therefore, Dong Zhao speculated that it was very likely that the Southern Huns had reached a deal with Gongsun Zan, and that Gongsun Zan let Liu Bao out of the customs to restrain the Karasuma Xianbei tribe who had a bad relationship with Gongsun Zan.

Based on Dong Zhao's conjecture, Yuan Xi used this matter to gamble with the ignorant Zhao Yun to drive a wedge between him and Gongsun Zan.

Although this matter could not be said to be aboveboard, Yuan Xi had too few cards in his hand, not to mention Gongsun Zan who was not a man first.

However, after Yuan Xi and Zhao Yun fought side by side, he realized that he was wrong about some things, and his mistakes were outrageous.

Zhao Yun may not be ignorant of the truth of this matter!

According to the agreement, Yuan Xi went to kill the Huns, probably not simply because of the bet, but because Zhao Yun really wanted to get rid of the illness with Wei Qinghuo, wipe out the enemies of the Huns, and save the people of the Han family!
This can also explain why after the First World War, Zhao Yun readily conceded defeat and led his troops away without even taking the goods.

If Zhao Yun really cared about Gongsun Zan's military order, he would definitely not recognize the value of Liu Bao's head. In that case, Zhao Yun would win instead, and Yuan Xi had no choice.

Just because Zhao Yun was fighting for the ambition in his heart, and didn't care about the gains and losses of a city or a place, he readily admitted that Yuan Xi killed Liu Bao and defeated himself.

Therefore, Yuan Xi's strategy can be said to be a crooked one. If this is the case, Zhao Yun should have been dissatisfied with Gongsun Zan a long time ago, and he may have found an excuse to leave in the near future.

Thinking of this, Yuan Xi suddenly woke up. Zhao Yun went back to report to Gongsun Zan. He didn't even share the property. Could it be that he had awakened earlier?
If so, Zhao Yun might be in danger!
Thinking of this, Yuan Xi suddenly stood up from the car, and immediately said to Qu Yi: "Move troops out of the city!"
