On the bank of the clear river, Lu Bu took out a short sword, facing the river, cleaning his beard, he had not been so relaxed to wash for several months, this time the battle killed Xianbei and broke the courage, on the grassland, no one dared to provoke his edge, at this time, a cadre of soldiers can easily come down, tidy up, clean up the dirt on the body, and go home refreshingly.
"Wen Hou, I see that the Xianbei Royal Court has broken its courage, and there are not too many soldiers and horses left, why don't you uproot the Xianbei Royal Court in one go" Wei Yan leaned beside Lu Bu, his eyes flashing with bloodthirsty light.
"How can it be so simple" Lu Bu cleaned his chin, took off his armor, leaned on the red rabbit horse that was crawling on the ground, and shook his head when he heard the words, he was in a good mood now, and the friendship with Zhao Yun and Wei Yan that he had established over the past few months also made him willing to let go of some arrogance to talk to them.
"If it had been before, I might have had the same idea as you, and we should do everything we can to get rid of evil," Lu Bu said with a smile.
Wei Yan looked at Lu Bu in confusion.
"There are some things that can't be solved by killing them cleanly."
Lu Bu pointed in the direction of Yin Mountain and said: "Under this Yin Mountain, there is also the Jinlian River, on the grassland, it is a land of fertile water and grass, even if we completely uproot the Xianbei Royal Court, but it won't be long before Hu people from the eastern part of Yin Mountain will come over, maybe Xianbei, or Wuhuan." ” "So what" Wei Yan puzzled, if you kill a few more, the strength of the Hu people will be a little less.
"How" Lu Bu shook his head: "It is not the war that controls the Xianbei population, but these few places, as long as there is enough water and grass and they will not starve, it won't be long before their population will multiply again, and then we will face a new force in the north." ” "The Xianbei royal court has been killed by us, these people may not have the courage to attack my Han in their lifetime, but the new forces may be afraid of our prestige, but they will not lose their courage, and when the time comes, the north will be even more chaotic."
"If my dynasty is strong, I don't have to be afraid of him, but now, the Han Dynasty is in turmoil, and the princes are divided, if it weren't for Xianbei secretly colluding with that Han Sui this time, Your Majesty would not have sent eight thousand elites into the grassland at this time."
Lu Bu sneered: "Now that Han Sui has been defeated, Xiliang has entered our dynasty, Xianbei's side, when stability is the mainstay, a new force, but it is not as easy to control as these Xianbei who have lost their courage now." ” These truths, if it were before, Lu Bu would not have understood, but since the original dream, Lu Bu seems to have one more life, some truths, and slowly sorted out, in his mind, his tragic fate has not only not become blurred over time, but has become clearer, and it has also made Lu Bu slowly more realize, if Liu Xie can see Lu Bu at this moment, he will be surprised to find that Lu Bu's once pitiful internal affairs ability has improved a lot in just a few months.
"It's still Wen Hou who can see far."
When Wei Yan heard this, he couldn't help but admire.
"It's not that I can see far, these truths have been told to me before, but I was young and frivolous at the time, and I regarded these wisdom as cowardice."
Gently groping the back of the red rabbit horse, Lu Bu looked at the sky in the distance with some distraction, and a little nostalgia, guilt and remorse flashed in his eyes.
Looking at Lu Bu's expression, Wei Yan didn't ask again, obviously thinking of some unhappy memories.
"General, there is a Xianbei envoy asking to see."
A general rushed over and said to Lu Budao.
"Xianbei Emissary" Lu Bu frowned, nodded and said, "Let him come over." ” "Whoa."
The general agreed, quickly retreated, and after a while, he came over with a Xianbei old man.
"Xiaguan Zheluo, see Wen Hou."
A pure Chinese accent made Lu Bu, Zhao Yun, Wei Yan and others look at this old man dressed as a humble person in amazement.
"You're Han," Lu Bu frowned.
"This" Jerro looked at the surrounding generals and did not speak.
"Go down first."
Lu Bu waved his hand, if the three of them could be assassinated here, then no matter how many people there were, it would be useless.
Seeing this, several generals hurriedly bowed down and retreated silently.
Zheluo looked at Zhao Yun and Wei Yan again, and Lu Bu frowned and said, "If you have something to say, say it quickly." ” "Whoa."
Zheluo nodded, took out a golden order from his bosom and handed it to Lu Bu, and then knelt down on one knee and said, "Royal Secret Guard Zheluo, see the generals." ” "This is" Seeing this golden order, Lu Bu's eyes shrank suddenly, and he looked at the Xianbei old man in front of him incredibly, and took out a golden order from his arms, the two were exactly the same, this was given to him by Liu Xie before Lu Bu set out on the expedition, on the grassland, if he met someone holding the same golden order, it meant that this person could be trusted.
At that time, Lu Bu didn't understand what he meant, but at this moment, he understood.
"Royal Secret Guard" Lu Bu is the first time he has heard of this organization.
"This is a royal secret, so I will not disclose it in the future."
Jerro bowed.
"Got it."
Lu Bu returned the golden order to Zheluo, looked at him and said, "I don't know why you came here."
"Marquis Wen should have received an order from His Majesty to recall."
Jerro smiled.
"Not bad."
Lu Bu nodded and said, "I'm going to leave here tomorrow, and I'm still in the court, I've been here for so long, I don't remember that I'm a Han." ” "Dare to ask Wen Hou to linger for a few more days."
Jerro smiled.
"Why" Lu Bu raised his eyebrows, puzzled.
"I have persuaded that Putou to call me a minister, offering cattle and sheep, war horses and women, and now that Hetao and Xiliang are lacking in population, these women are just divided into two places to help reproduction, in addition, Your Majesty intends to develop animal husbandry in Xiliang, these cattle, sheep, and war horses are also urgently needed, and Wen Hou just brought them back together."
Jerro smiled.
"Can you convince him" Lu Bu looked at Zheluo in surprise, as far as he knew, that Putou was a stingy ghost.
"Budugen is dead, and now the total population of the royal court is only 80,000, and most of them are women, and there are less than 20,000 warriors in the royal court, as long as Wen Hou is willing to go, then Putou will agree."
Jerro laughed.

"Obediently" Wei Yan's eyes widened, and he looked at Zheluo and said, "Then before we came, how many people were here?"
"There are 150,000 herdsmen on the royal court's side, and if you add Jin Lianchuan and some scattered tribes, I am afraid there are nearly 300,000."
Jerro smiled.
"This" Wei Yan looked at Lu Bu in horror, Jin Lianchuan has now been incorporated into the royal court, and the scattered tribes have already been cleaned up by them, and now west of Yinshan Mountain, thousands of miles are uninhabited, that is to say, the original 300,000 herdsmen are now only 80,000 "Wen Hou, how come I don't remember that we have killed so many people" Wei Yan said in disbelief, except for the beginning, the later it is, the more difficult it is to find the lone tribe, they went back and forth, and the Xianbei people they destroyed may add up to barely 80,000, but now they tell him that this winter, more than 200,000 Xianbei people have been exterminated, how can this be calculated "What's the surprise" Lu Bu shook his head: "Those who starve to death, those who freeze to death, cannibalism and death, under this Yin Mountain, you can't support too many people." ” "That's right."
Jerro nodded and smiled, but speaking of which, although these people were not killed by them, they died because of them.
"Then according to you, how much should it be," Lu Bu thought for a while.
"The population is 40,000, 100,000 cattle and sheep, 3,000 fine horses, and 50,000 fine war horses."
Thinking about the current situation of the Xianbei Royal Court, he said.
"Hiss" Wei Yan's eyes widened, and he said incredulously: "This is too much, right?"
"Not much."
Zheluo smiled and said: "The humble duty is to take care of the affairs of the royal court for that Putou, these things, the royal court can afford to bear, and can still leave some reproduction, but within ten years, I am afraid that only by relying on my big man can I survive." ” Looking at Zheluo with a light face, Wei Yan felt a little chill in his bones, even as an enemy, he couldn't help but start to sympathize with that Putou at this moment, in this way, there are only 40,000 herdsmen left, even if they keep making people day and night, for a long time, Xianbei wants to rise, it's a joke, thinking that Putou was knocked out by this person, and then the other party has to be grateful to him, not only Wei Yan, but also Lu Bu and Zhao Yun also feel the same way, this Xianbei is too pitiful.
"Are you sure" Lu Bu looked at Zheluo's smiling face, and somehow, he had the urge to smoke this person.
"As long as Wen Hou can linger here for a few more days, he will have the confidence to convince that Xianbei Shan Yu."
Jerro said with a confident expression.
"Okay, I'll leave this matter to you, just hopefully, don't make me wait for a long time."
Lu Bu took a deep breath and nodded.
If this can really be done, then the harvest of this battle will be too rich.
"Retire from your duties."
Zheluo bowed slightly and walked towards Lu Bu and the three of them.
Lu Bu nodded, watched Zheluo leave, and said to everyone: "Tell the warriors to repair here for a few days." ” This is a bit of a broken promise, but Xianbei has broken his guts and can't make any waves, wait a few more days, Lu Bu can still hold it down, but if it takes a long time, it may not be.
Thinking of the large number of supplies that were coming, Lu Bu looked at Zhao Yun again: "Send someone to inform Xu Huang, let him send some people to come over to pick up and prepare to transport the supplies, in addition, bring me some food, I have eaten meat for so long, and now I feel disgusted when I see meat." ” "Huh" Zhao Yun smiled bitterly, I'm afraid it's the first time someone has said that eating meat will make you sick, but it's not just Lu Bu, he also feels like this.
"Wen Hou, you say, that Xianbei Shan Yu, will really agree" Wei Yan looked at Lu Bu, still a little incredulous, although he didn't know the current situation of the Xianbei people, but if he did this, I was afraid that the life of the Xianbei people would not be too easy.
"Yes," Lu Bu thought for a while, "Now what we should be thinking about is how to transport things back as soon as possible." ” t1706231537:
