1.59 The Triumph of the Class Teacher

Liu Bei asked about his injuries.

The Southern Xiongnu King replied with a smile that he had already made a comeback. He could stay in the near future.

This time, Zang Min, the General of the Huns, went out of the frontier, and the Southern Xiongnu made great efforts. Tu Te Ruozizhu led his troops to rush forward, which was quite brave. The Southern Xiongnu tribes were attacked by the Xianbei. Many cattle and sheep tribes were plundered and had deep resentment. Tu Te Ruozizhu chased Shanyu and personally took on arrows and stones. It was not only Han, but also private grudges.

The southern and northern Huns all came from the Xiongnu.

In the second year of Emperor Xuan's divine title (60 BC), the Xulu Quanqu Shanyu died and the Huns split. Five Shanyu fought for the throne, attacking each other, and fighting incessant melee. Later, the "Huhanye Shanyu" attached the Han Dynasty to the Han Dynasty and was the Southern Xiongnu. Under the leadership of the Zhizhi Shanyu, the Northern Xiongnu defeated Dayuan, Wusun and other countries, forcing the four barbarians to pay tribute, and trembled the Western Regions. They were temporarily revived. However, they were finally defeated by the Han Dynasty and the Hu Hu, and moved west on a large scale. The 100,000 tribes that remained on the grassland and refused to travel west were then annexed by the Xianbei. As a result, they became powerful.

In the next two hundred years, the Southern Xiongnu continued to be sinicized. Now they are many different from the Hu people outside the Great Wall.

Like Wulian, the Southern Xiongnu also recognized the powerful Han Dynasty and despised the Hu people. Most of them were proud of the Chinese transformation.

Liu Bei came to visit, which made Tu Teruozhu very happy. Shaojunhou was a relative of the Han Dynasty and was called Qilinzi when he was young. The people in the north knew all the old things. Tu Teruozhu had just succeeded to the throne and was quite young. After a while, he became familiar with it.

Liu Bei came here to eliminate the visiting injuries, but also wanted to let the Southern Xiongnu grow alfalfa on a large scale and turn it into nomadic things into agriculture and animal husbandry.

I heard that alfalfa is easy to plant and can be harvested many times a year. It is far better than grassland for forage. The Southern Xiongnu King was quite surprised.

Liu Bei smiled and said, seeing that it was true. When he was well recovered, the king could come to Lou Sang to live in a small place. Look at the long alfalfa dike on the river bank. There are also Wuhuan shepherds in Xilin City. How effective is alfalfa feeding horses? You will know it when you ask.

Butcher Te's corpse was chased, so he made an agreement with Liu Bei that he would go to Lou Sang for a while in the next day.

Before the road was blocked by heavy snow, the Southern Xiongnu and the Wuhuan of the three counties moved the plundered tribes to their respective settlements in the pass. The vast teams followed the Great Wall, headed west and eastward, and then entered the Central Plains. Liu Bei was as eager to return. When Wulian returned safely, he went south with Wuyan, the Wuhuan king of Youbeiping, who had gained a lot of harvest, and entered the pass along the Lulong Pass Road.

The guardian of the Wuhuan school magistrate Xia Yu, defeated the Xianbei Central Army General Tian Yan, and the Xiongnu Central Army General Zang Min, and went out to see him off. He felt a lot of emotion and respected him.

After the war was over, Xia Yu and others came to court and said that they would defeat the Xianbei outside Baitan City.

Now the news has spread to prefectures and counties. The whole country has caused a sensation. The Han Dynasty has been established for two hundred years, especially in recent dynasties, and there are very few good news in the north. How can we not be happy?

His Majesty the Emperor sent his ministers to reward the three armies and asked how to fight.

Xia Yu and others told the story of the Northern Expedition that had been agreed upon with Liu Bei.

There is no flaw. It is extremely exciting. I believe that it will be explained by the inner minister and will reach the heavenly hearing. Your Majesty will also be very happy.

The detailed results of the battle are still under statistics. It is said that Liu Bei was the first to do so. He attacked the royal court at night, killed the Xianbei prince, and captured the Daqi family. He fought bloody battles in seven days, killing the enemy in total: 23,761. They were all Xianbei cavalry. His military achievements were brilliant.

In such a prosperous era in the whole country, Your Majesty is very happy. I believe that the rewards will not be less.

Seeing Liu Bei's army arrived, Lu Longsai's guard general Wei Shi, Cheng Pu and Qi went out to meet him. Bai Tan's bloody battle, but Lu Longsai was safe and sound. Although there was no war, Lu Longsai was on the way back. He had to be careful and cautious. Cheng Pu sent the secret bag to western Liaoning, so he personally mentioned his troops to north to reinforce. He joined forces with Wei Shi to defend Lu Long together.

The soldiers did not disarm their armor, so they were wary of it day and night. They never slacked off.

Wei Xi was deeply respected. This was used as a guarantee and gave it to Liu Bei. Liu Bei was naturally very happy. He took Cheng Pu back to Lou Sang and chose an auspicious day to take him as a retainer. Cheng Pu also said that Zhao Bao, the prefect of western Liaoning, sent an envoy to welcome his mother and his wife. He passed through Pingbo Shuizhai. Cheng Pu ordered his subordinates to escort along the way and had arrived in Liucheng safely.

Liu Bei praised him for his goodness repeatedly.

After leaving Lulong Pass Road, the King of Wuhuan was pacified and bid farewell to Liu Bei. He turned to the royal court of Wuzhong County. During this northern expedition, Wuyan plundered tens of thousands of Xianbei people, and more than 3,000 gathered. The momentum rose sharply.

Wulian is also very happy.

He said that if the Northern Expedition is renewed, Brother Wang can send out three thousand elite cavalry to help Liu Bei.

Eight hundred changes three thousand. The strength cannot be underestimated.

When he set off in August, he returned to the year. He arrived at Pingbo Shuizhai. The Tian family ship had been waiting for a long time. There was also a large wheel boat made by Lou Sang.

"The wheels roll, and the boat is flying like flying." The speed is extremely fast. Liu Bei looked at the bottom cabin and saw that the paddle wheels originally driven by the boatman had been driven by animal power! Six large rotors similar to the stone mill in the mill were driven by the black donkey in the Bohai Sea that was covered with eyes. They were like a donkey mill. They were then transferred to the paddle wheels, which drove the boat back and forth. There was also a bridge gear (idler wheel) in the transmission gear set. When reversing, the idler wheel intervened, and the principle was similar to reverse gear. Without changing the direction of the black donkey in the Bohai Sea, you can move forward and backward.

From then on, the large paddle wheel (padwheel) on the wheel boat became a symbol of motorized ships and was also the origin of the name of "steam ship" in later generations.

Liu Bei made a lot of money on this trip. He killed 23,761 enemies and seized nearly 10,000 war horses. Among them, there were a royal horse with a white hoof, black horse, also called dark clouds and snow. When he ran, his four hooves soared into the air, his mane was floating. He was rushing at lightning and traveling thousands of miles.

Liu Bei is preparing to give it to Zhang Xiaopang.

There is also a horse, all over the body, one white in color, without a half-color. It is head to tail, one zhang long, and the hooves to the ridge high. It is produced in the Western Regions and can travel thousands of miles a day. It is the best among horses. Thinking of Zhao Yun, who has only one meeting, Liu Bei named it: Bailong. His teeth are still light. He can be kept in the trough and then given to Zhao Yun when he grows up.

Liu Bei himself also found a divine horse. This horse was eight feet tall, and was chasing the wind and lightning, and was a huge crowd of thousands of miles away. Liu Bei named it: Huang Jue (róng).

The horse is eight feet tall and is made of oats. The fur is golden, like red gold (brass). Not only does it travel thousands of miles a day, but it will also shed blood-like sweat from the shoulders. It is the legendary "sweat-blooded BMW". The blue horse sand can only ride on a daily basis and cannot fight. Now Liu Bei finally has a suitable mount.

There were also many Xianbei horses, who were accompanied by more than 10,000 Xianbei horses. In the future, Lou Sang Jing rode one horse and three horses, which was enough to divide it.

Refer to the Huzao Horse Thief who wears a pound of gold per person. Shao Junhou killed 23,761 enemies, and peeled off fine gold and iron, and there are so many fur and jewelry!

Return to Lou Sang, let the craftsmen melt into ingots and store them for later use.

When entering Laishui, snow fell from the sky. Both sides of the river were white all night. Fortunately, Laishui did not freeze all year round and the traffic was smooth.

When building the Dukang Dike, the craftsmen also built and widened the waterway downstream of Qingxi. Even if it was a three-story building boat, it could travel smoothly downstream. The wheel boat that Liu Bei was riding on was also three-story. It was like a bucket ship.

The ship is more than 16 zhang long (37.4 meters), the waterline is more than 14 zhang (32.7 meters), and the ship is about four zhang (9 meters). Five feet inside the ship, and another shed is built, which is one zhang high (2.3 meters), which is as high as the female wall. A female wall is built on the shed, which is three zhang high (0.69 meters). The soldiers are re-arranged. Flags, banners, and golden drums are used to command operations, which can boost momentum. A helm building is built on the battle shed, which is more than 1 zhang high (2.5 meters), and a command platform is also more than 2.5 meters). There are six wheels on both sides of the hull, and there are arrow holes on the surrounding shed walls and female walls to attack the enemy. On the stern platform, there are soldiers responsible for observing the water surface.
