The next morning, not long after Liu De got up, Wang Dao came to report that a letter was delivered by one of the attendants.
Liu De took the letter, most of the letters at this time were written on bamboo slips, and occasionally someone would pass it on with silk cloth, but that was the behavior of the nouveau riche of a ruined family, and ordinary nobles would not do that.
The same is true for the unsigned letterhead, written on a bamboo slip, but with beeswax on the outside to prevent anyone from peeking at it.
Liu De burned the beeswax, then opened the bamboo slip and took a look at the contents.
"King Youxian is dead" Liu De showed a happy smile on his face after reading it: "It's really good" This letter was written by Yuan An, and there was one sentence on it: In the spring, the right Xian king died violently, and Shan Yu made his son the king of Zuogu Li, and degraded the Zhongxing Bank to Beihai.
Although the content is brief, the information revealed is incomparably rich.
Liu De knew that the most wise Shan Yu in the history of the Huns had died five years ago, and the current Shan Yu was known as a military minister, and he was the eldest son of the old Shangji Porridge Shan Yu.
In the future, the various actions of this military minister Shan Yu can simply be awarded the honorary title of Friend of the Han Dynasty.
He was determined to advance westward, put almost all the forces of the Xiongnu Empire into the conquest of the West, and implemented a policy of peace and friendship with the Han family, so that the Han border pass was not subjected to large-scale invasion for 17 consecutive years, so that the emperor of the Han family could calmly reorganize the armament and expand the horse farm.
Before the rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms of Wu and Chu, there were less than 100,000 usable war horses in the pasture of the Emperor of the Han family, but by the first year of Yuanguang, the number of war horses in the pasture of the Emperor of the Han family exceeded 600,000, and he was already qualified to expedition to the desert and compete with the Hun cavalry.
In his previous life, Liu De couldn't understand why, in the year when Cheap Daddy ascended the throne, the Hun cavalry still drove straight in, went deep into Daidi, invaded Yanyou, and plundered and killed tens of thousands of border people, but only after a year, when the rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms of Wu and Chu broke out, the Huns were indifferent, and even half of the cavalry never approached the Great Wall.
Of course, Liu De would not be stupid enough to believe that it was because of the cheap daddy's peace policy that fed the Huns.
Now, with this message from Yuan An, all the mysteries have been solved.
There is no doubt that the Huns have once again been habitually infighting this year.
The Youxian Wang faction, which advocated invasion and harassment of the Han land, suffered a devastating blow, and its leader, the Right Xianwang, was even violently killed in Shan Yuting, and the Zhongxing theory advocating an attack on the Han land was reviled to Beihai.
To understand why this happened, we must first understand the past of the Huns.
At that time, the powerful Qin Empire collapsed in the wave of peasant uprisings, and the Great Wall Army of Qin, which was originally stationed in the Hetao area on the orders of Qin Shi Huang to monitor and fight against the Xiongnu, Donghu and other nomadic peoples, also collapsed in the Battle of Julu.
A huge vacuum has emerged throughout the northern steppe.
The Huns took advantage of the situation and seized the territory, camps and pastures left by the Qin army, and then, under the leadership of Mao Dun Shan Yu, defeated the Eastern Hu and achieved the supremacy of the grassland.
Through the efforts of Mao Dun and Lao Shang Shan Yu, the territory of the Xiongnu Empire expanded unprecedentedly, from the Great Wall of the Han Dynasty to the far Western Regions, the Xiongnu established a huge empire with an area of tens of thousands of miles.
Obviously, with the civilization and political level of the Huns, it was impossible to effectively rule such a huge territory.
Therefore, during the reign of Lao Shangdanyu, the Huns determined a double-headed eagle strategy similar to that of Lao Maozi in later generations.
Set up the left and right virtuous kings, the left and right valley kings, the left and right big households, the left and right bones and so on.
The left expands to the west, and the right penetrates into the Han land.
In the Xiongnu tradition, the left is respected, and the Xiongnu Zuoxian King is both the leader and the heir responsible for the expansion of the West.
There is no doubt that the military minister Shan Yu should be the Zuoxian King of the Xiongnu during the reign of Lao Shangshan Yu.
And Liu De remembered that the court historian of the Han Dynasty recorded an event: next year, Shan Yu wrote in the Han Dynasty: The Huns established by heaven and asked the emperor if he was harmed.
In the past, the emperor spoke and said that he was a book.
The Han border officials insulted the right Xian Wang, the right Xian Wang was not invited, and after listening to the Hou Yi Lu Hou Nan clan and other plans, he was far away from the Han officials, and the covenant of the two lords was separated from the brothers.
The emperor asked the book to come again, and sent a book and newspaper, but if he did not come, the Han envoy did not come, the Han was not in harmony for some reason, and the neighboring countries were not attached.
Now with the defeat of the small officials, punish the right virtuous king, so that he will seek the moon clan to attack him.
With the blessing of the sky, the officials are good, and the horses are strong, to destroy the Yueshi, and kill and descend.
Dingloulan, Wusun, Hujie and the thirty-six countries next to them are all thought to be the Xiongnu, the people of the bow, and they are one family This is the content of the national letter written by the Xiongnu Lao Shangshan Yu in the sixth year of Emperor Taizong Xiaowen.
In order to avoid his mistakes, Liu De deliberately went to Shiqu Pavilion and read the original of the national letter from the historian, and confirmed it without a doubt.
This is what happened more than a decade ago.
In this national book, the Xiongnu Shan Yu was arrogant, but the information he inadvertently revealed was that the Youxian King, who was supposed to be responsible for the attack and defense of the Han land, was transferred to the west by the Xiongnu Shan Yu because of his private attack on the Han land, and he also destroyed the Yue clan with great strength, pacified the Western Regions, and made all the 36 countries of the Western Regions submit to the Xiongnu's saber.
Then, Liu De immediately thought of it.
The Right Xian King is so awesome, what does the Zuo Xian Wang, who is the crown prince, think Liu De feels that he has changed himself, and he must be very uncomfortable, and he will even draw a circle in secret to curse the Right Xian King.
Now that the facts have told Liu De, Zuo Xian Wang Junchen must be gritting his teeth with hatred No, it's only been five years since he came to power, and he settled the accounts after the autumn and purged the power of King Youxian.
And this is definitely a happy event worth celebrating.
Liu De took the letter, and immediately ran to the Qingliang Palace, as soon as he entered the door, Liu De jumped up and down like a child and said to the Son of Heaven: "Congratulations to the father, congratulations to the father, the Hun thief chief Youxian King is dead" Liu Qi, the son of heaven, was a little annoyed at first when he saw Liu De screaming like an unsuccessful child, but after listening to Liu De's words, he immediately stood up and asked excitedly: "Really" "Yes, father" Liu De handed the letter to the Son of Heaven and said: "Father, this is a letter from Yuan Ang to his son, father, please see, the thief of King Youxian is indeed dead" Liu Qi, the Son of Heaven, took the letter in his hand and read it, and after reading it, he could no longer hold back the joy in his heart: "It's been 17 years since I died, this thief has killed more than 100,000 border people of my Han family in 17 years, and plundered countless people.
In the past ten years, almost all the invasion and harassment of the Xiongnu on the Han land were planned and commanded by this right virtuous king.
Emperor Taizong Xiaowen for three years, entered Henan, went to the county, and killed and plundered thousands of people.
In the fourteenth year, he commanded 140,000 troops, entered Xiaoguan, killed Sun Wei, the commander of the northern land, invaded Pengyang, burned down the palace of the emperor of Han and returned to the middle palace, and the forward cavalry even appeared thirty miles north of the Ganquan Palace, ravaging the Han land for a month, killing and injuring tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians.
Last year, it invaded Yunzhong and Shangjun, killing and plundering tens of thousands of people.
