Chapter 94, interconnected

Strictly speaking, there are actually some small flaws in this plan, but they are no longer harmful.

Finding the truth in a chaotic situation is as difficult as going to heaven.

What Liu Bei wanted to ensure was to submit a satisfactory answer to the court and maintain his status as a just dispatcher of troops.

Who came up with this vicious plan?

The hatred in Yu Fulo's heart was overwhelming, but he found that he could not find a reason to refute. The other party had been plotting against them from beginning to end, and their control over human nature had reached an extremely terrifying level.

In addition, the role of the envoy was not only to sow discord, but also to monitor them, so the Han army was so well aware of their movements.

Yu Fuluo put away his thoughts and gritted his teeth and said, "Thank you very much, Ambassador Liu, for sending troops to help." He suddenly understood one thing, the truth was no longer important, the problem now was how to protect himself.

Liu Bei nodded and said seriously: "King Zuo Xian is very polite. As the shepherd of Bingzhou, it is my duty to send troops."

Your duty should not be to attack us Xiongnu, we have already surrendered!

Yu Fuluo clearly hated Liu Bei in his heart, but he had to smile at him to avoid being exterminated on unfounded charges.

That night, the Huns were licking their wounds secretly, while Liu Bei led his army to camp outside the royal court.

In the camp, all the generals looked happy. It was obvious that attacking the Huns was very enjoyable for them.

Among them, Lu Bu and Zhang Liao were the most important. Only people living at the border can experience the harm caused by barbarians.

At this time, Guo Jia held a feather fan and walked into the camp.

Lu Bu and Zhang Liao looked at each other, then walked out in unison, blocking Guo Jia's path.

"Thank you, military advisor!"

They had fought against the Huns many times before and had defeated them many times, but never once were they as comfortable as they were today.

At the minimum cost, almost the entire southern Huns were destroyed. According to their estimates, after this battle, the number of young men the Xiongnu could mobilize would be less than 10,000.

What a horrific casualty.

The most important thing is that most of these casualties were not killed by them, but died from civil strife.

Guo Jia smiled and said: "You two generals are too polite. King Xiutu is very ambitious. Even without our planning, he will still plot rebellion. I just gave him a push."

Seeing the happy scene of the crowd, he guessed that the outcome of this battle would be surprisingly good.

Liu Bei nodded secretly. As far as he knew, the Southern Xiongnu did have a rebellion during this period in his previous life, and the Qiangqu Chanyu died as a result.

The difference is that after their intervention, the Xiongnu's casualties due to civil strife doubled, and their current strength is probably only equivalent to some small tribes on the grassland.

However, what impressed Liu Bei was that he knew this because of his foresight, while Guo Jia relied entirely on his intelligence.

If he knew that Guo Jia also had the same golden finger as him, even an enhanced version, he didn't know what he would think.

"What do Fengxiao think of arranging Yu Fuluo's next move?" Liu Bei spoke, and then told him what Yu Fuluo had questioned him about today.

Before Guo Jia opened his mouth, Zhang Fei said fiercely: "In my opinion, if he doesn't do it again, I'll kill this kid with a knife."

After saying that, he made a gesture of wiping his neck.

Zhang Liao shook his head and said: "The strategy of the military advisor is very secretive. I believe many people cannot see that we are involved in this rebellion, but once Yu Fuluo is killed, it may arouse suspicion."

"So what if we know, what we are doing is fighting against the barbarians, how can the world still accuse us?" Lu Bu agreed with Zhang Fei's opinion. In his opinion, fists are truth.

Liu Bei pondered: "After all, the southern Xiongnu has nominally belonged to the Han. If the world knows that we are planning to provoke civil strife in the Xiongnu, it will not only affect the credibility of the Han in the eyes of all ethnic groups, but also someone in the DPRK may take the opportunity to make trouble."

"Fengxiao, what do you think?"

Liu Bei looked at Guo Jia, only to find that he was deep in thought.

Guo Jia knew very little about Yu Fuluo. He only knew that he was short-lived, but he did know a little bit about his son Liu Bao and grandson Liu Yuan.

According to historical records, Liu Bao, the Xian King of Zuo, took advantage of the Chang'an Rebellion and led his army southward and kidnapped a large number of Han people, including the talented Cai Wenji.

However, the current miserable situation of the Xiongnu in the south cannot be restored without the development of one or two generations, so this incident will probably not happen.

As for his grandson Liu Yuan, he was one of the initiators of the Five Husties Rebellion in China and the founding emperor of Han and Zhao.

Guo Jia put away his thoughts and replied: "My lord, it is better to let him temporarily take over the post of Shanyu of the Southern Huns, and then write a letter to the court stating that at this time, it is up to the emperor to decide."

Although I really want to nip this threat in the bud, doing so will undoubtedly cause flaws in this supposedly successful operation.

Besides, the Southern Xiongnu have been crippled by him now, and there will be many opportunities to plot against Fuluo in the future.

Liu Bei nodded, thinking this proposal was a good one.

At this time, Zhang Liao asked again: "This man is very knowledgeable. He seems to have figured out that this civil strife is related to us. Wouldn't letting him succeed the Shan Yu be a way of letting the tiger go back to the mountain?"

Hearing this, Guo Jia smiled calmly and responded: "It doesn't matter, the Xiongnu still has a calamity, maybe he can't pass it."

Zhang Liao cupped his hands and said, "I'd like to hear the details!"

"Today's Xiongnu is like a terminally ill old man who is extremely wealthy. Do you think his young neighbors will miss him?"

Zhang Liao suddenly realized that Guo Jia was referring to the Xianbei people.

Strength has always been respected on the grassland, but now that the Xiongnu's vitality has been severely weakened, the Xianbei people next door will not miss this great opportunity.

The cattle, sheep, and women of the Southern Huns were extremely wealthy on this grassland.

Liu Bei smiled and said: "In this way, we will have a legitimate reason to use troops against Xianbei in the future."

Killing people with a borrowed knife, driving away tigers and devouring wolves. It turns out that this trick has not ended yet.

But he was a little confused, why did Guo Jia hate the Huns so much?

Zhang Fei scratched his head and said: "Military advisor, how come this plan is linked one after another? Zhang Fei is a little scared after hearing this." Even so, he was clearly smiling on his face.

"This matter has nothing to do with me. It is normal to attack each other on the grassland." Guo Jia said that he was wronged and this matter was really not part of his plan.

At this time, Lu Bu suddenly asked: "My Lord plans to use troops against Xianbei?"

There was a hint of excitement in his tone, and he was obviously very interested in this matter.

Liu Bei and Guo Jia looked at each other and nodded: "Yes, since I have come to Bingzhou, I must completely eliminate the Hu problem!"

This was the promise he made to the emperor at the beginning, and it was also to build an extremely solid foundation.

Lu Bu immediately stepped out and said, "I would like to be the vanguard."

"Xianbei is different from the Xiongnu. They are stronger. This matter should not be rushed."
