The last three kingdoms

Chapter 601 The Ambition of Bald Tree Function
Under the blue sky, there is a vast desert. Apart from the deep and desolate blue between the sky and the earth, it is that simple and dignified yellow. Under the afterglow of the setting sun, this vast desert presents a golden color, countless The folds of the sand and stones are like solidified waves, extending to the golden horizon in the distance.

There was no trace of green, and no source of water could be seen. A fiery red horse stopped on a dry river. The rider on the horse was a young man with sharp eyes like a falcon, and his face was extremely contoured. Rich texture, like cutting with an ax chisel, he looked at the dry river under his feet, and murmured helplessly and anxiously: "Even this place has been wiped out, and it is too difficult to find a water source."

If there was a Han man next to him at this moment, he would not be able to understand what he was talking about, because the young man spoke Xianbei, which is a jerky and difficult language to the ears of the Han man.

This Xianbei young man is named Tufa Shujieng, and he has just taken over the position of chief from his grandfather Tufa Shoutian.

The names of the Xianbei people are not as particular as the Han people, and even their surnames are very casual. The bald-haired Shoutian's father was the Xianbei chief Pigu. A child was born in a quilt, and Pi Gu called the child Bald Shoutian. Bald does not mean bald. In Xianbei, bald refers to the quilt. This shows that Xianbei people are arbitrary about surnames.

In the first year of Cao Wei and Huang Chu, Tuoba Jufen, a master of the Tuoba tribe, passed away. His second son, Tuoba Liwei, was established as the leader because his mother was a "celestial girl" with supernatural powers, that is, the emperor of the Northern Wei and Yuan Dynasties. Cannot succeed.Tuoba Pigu was resentful and led some tribesmen to leave, from the Yinshan and Hetao areas in the north of Saibei, along the Yellow River, along the eastern foot of the Helan Mountains, to the north of Hexi and Longxi.When Pigu was alive, the Hexi Xianbei was not very large, only a few thousand people, but when the bald Shoutian became the leader, the Hexi Xianbei continued to conquer and expanded the sphere of influence to the Liangzhou area. With 10 people, it seems to be the largest Hu nationality in the Hexi region.

However, since the beginning of this year, there has been a severe drought in the Hexi area, and there has been no rain for several months. As a nomadic people, Xianbei people choose water and grass to live. This sudden severe drought almost dried up the pasture in the entire Hexi area. The main Xianbei people were almost on the verge of life and death, and the bald tree function had just taken over the position of the chief, and it encountered such a problem.

It was a matter of the survival of the tribe, so the bald tree machine could go out to find water sources in order to relieve the urgent need, but to his disappointment, after running around for several days, he found a river bed that was all dry.If no water source can be found, their entire tribe will have a hard time surviving this winter.

"Boss, what should we do now?" the cronies beside him asked anxiously.

Bald Tree's facial expression has also become extremely stern. Although he is only in his 20s, he has already fought on the battlefield when he was a teenager. The cruel battle has cultivated his tenacity. He surrendered, and the survival of the entire tribe was now on his shoulders, and he had to find a way to survive no matter what.

"Big leader, Yao Keli, the leader of the Qiang tribe, sent an envoy to see the big leader." His subordinates came to report.

"Yao Keli? Isn't he the younger brother of the Western Qiang King Yao Kehui? Why did he send someone here?" Bald Tree Jiji asked in bewilderment.

In the Hexi area, besides the Xiongnu, the old enemies of the Xianbei people are the Qiang people. In order to compete for territory, the Xianbei people, the Huns, and the Qiang people continued to attack. For more than ten years, both sides have forged a huge hatred. This kind of Enmity, almost a mortal enmity, the kind of mortal enmity that can only be resolved by the extermination of the family, the bald tree machine was deeply baffled when he heard the messenger sent by the Qiang people.

To be honest, the bald tree machine is envious and jealous of the Qiang people. The Qiang people own two fertile lands in Xiping County, the Big and the Big Elm Valley, which makes the bald tree machine coveted.When the bald-haired Shoutian was in power, several wars broke out between Yao Kehui and Yao Kehui for the big and small Yugu, but every time the Xianbei people returned home.Now that the Hexi region is facing a severe drought and there is no grass growing, the life of the Xianbei people is extremely difficult, but the Qiang people still live a very moist life in the big and small elm valleys, which almost makes the Xianbei people go crazy with envy.

"Back to the camp!" The bald tree machine waved his hand, and several personal soldiers who were close to him quickly jumped on the horseback and followed him back to the camp.

"See the big boss. The young one came to see the big boss under the order of the big boss Yao Keli. The little gift is not a respect, and I hope the big boss can accept it with a smile." When he came back, he greeted him with a smile on his face, and at the same time handed over the gift list.

The bald tree didn't even glance at the gift list, and said with a sneer, "What are you thinking about the weasel's New Year greetings to the chicken?" When he came in, he asked questions.

The envoy laughed and said, "Don't get me wrong, the big boss. Master Yao Keli sent the younger one here this time because he wanted to shake hands with the big boss and let go of the past."

Bald Tree Ji Neng sneered and said, "Stop messing with Han people's flamboyant intestines. In the eyes of our Xianbei people, we can't touch half a grain of sand. Tell me, Yao Keli sent you here, what do you want?"

The envoy said: "At present, the king of Xiqiang is seriously ill, and I am afraid that he will die soon. Master Yao Keli has assisted the king of Xiqiang for many years. He has worked hard and made great achievements. He is worthy of inheriting the throne. The leader can send troops to help."

The bald tree machine giggled and said: "It turns out that Yao Keli wanted to seek power and usurp the throne, but he said it so grandly. This is thick-skinned."

Lai Shi also blushed slightly, and said: "Who doesn't ask for power? Master Yao Keli has been the king of Xiqiang for decades. Now that he has the opportunity to sit on the throne, he is naturally unwilling to give up. Yao Yi'an It's easy to deal with, but Yao Yikang led [-] troops to the Shu Han Liu Yin's tent. If he returns to the army or even brings Shu Han's reinforcements, it may be difficult to deal with, so the big boss hopes that the big leader can send troops to help. Thanks a lot."

Bald Tree Ji Neng laughed and said, "I don't bother to deal with the shitty things of you Qiang people. Tell me, what conditions can you offer? As long as this leader is satisfied, everything is easy to talk about."

"After the matter is completed, Lord Yao Keli is willing to give Little Elm Valley to the chief."

"Okay, it's a deal!" A smile finally appeared on Bald Tree's stern face.
