When Lou Ban came of age, he had no choice but to swallow his anger when faced with Tadun, who was ambitious and controlled the entire clan!
"We, the Han Dynasty, have always treated you and other Wuhuan people favorably, but I didn't expect that you would repay kindness with hatred!"
"Since you are Qiu Liju's son, what do you have to say?"
Yang Ling asked sharply.
The classmate turned pale with fright and quickly defended,
"The Heavenly Envoy Mingjian, it was all Tadun's fault and it really has nothing to do with me!"
After hearing what he said, Yang Ling's expression softened.
"What you said makes sense."
"Now that Tadun is dead, what do you think?"
Lou Ban was stunned for a moment, unable to recover.
"Wuguanzhonglangjiang wants to ask you if you are interested in taking over the management of Wuhuan in Tadun's place."
Tian Yu on the side reminded him kindly.
"I...I do!"
Lou Ban looked ecstatic and quickly agreed.
joke.
This Shanyu's position was originally his, but was occupied by Tadun!
Now that Yang Ling is willing to appoint him as Shanyu, he naturally wants it!
"But you must remember that since we big men can praise you as a chanyu, we can also make you end up like Tadun. Do you understand?"
Yang Ling said meaningfully.
Thinking of his cousin Tadun's fate, Lou Ban felt a chill in his heart and hurriedly said respectfully,
"Please rest assured, your Majesty, I will lead my people and submit to the Han from generation to generation!"
"Very good! Someone, come and give me a seat for Shanyu from the upstairs class!"
Yang Ling nodded with satisfaction.
Including the Han people, the entire Wuhuan tribe has approximately 4 to 50 million people.
It would be unrealistic to really drive them all out.
Besides, Yang Ling is not a murderer.
His plan is very simple, that is, to integrate the Wuhuan people into the Han people step by step.
First support the pro-Han Louban as a chanyu to ensure that the Wuhuan people will not resist in a short time.
Subsequently, the system and culture of the Wuhuan people were reformed.
For example, after the death of a Chanyu, the next Chanyu needs to be appointed by the Han Dynasty and must be approved by the Han Dynasty in order to have legitimacy.
Let the Wuhuan people slowly accept the education and influence of Han culture and abandon their original traditions bit by bit.
Although the progress will be slow, as long as they persist, the Wuhuan people will be able to completely integrate into the Han people in one or two generations.
Of course.
In order to prevent the building class from turning against each other, Yang Ling also took corresponding countermeasures.
Su Puyan, king of Qiao, who commanded Wuhuan in Liaodong, and Wuyan, king of Hanlu, who commanded Wuhuan in Youbeiping, were both captured in the chaos.
Since Wu Yan was the executioner who massacred Guangping County, Yang Ling did not spare him lightly and ordered him to be executed in Ling Chi.
Later, he spared Su Puyan's life, and promoted Lord Wuhuan to be the chanyu of Wuhuan in Beiping.
As a result, the forces that originally belonged to Tadun were torn apart!
In addition, Xian Yufu and Tian Yu were in charge of Youzhou, and Yan Rou served as the captain of Wuhuan.
At least within three to five years, Wuhuan will no longer have the strength to resist the big man!
"It's just a pity that that boy Yuan Xi ran away again!"
Gan Ning said a little annoyed.
Speaking of Yuan Xi, Yang Ling even doubted whether Yuan Shao was cheated by Liu Bei.
During the previous battle in Youzhou, Yuan Xi saw that the situation was not going well and fled in advance.
When escaping from Jixian County, they were ambushed by Xian Yufu and Tian Yu.
Although all his soldiers and horses were wiped out, he still escaped!
In such a chaotic battlefield today, I just let him escape!
This ability to escape can only be matched by Liu Bei!
No wonder Yang Ling suspected that Liu Bei was having an affair with Yuan Shao's wife.
"Now that Wuhuan has surrendered, even if he can escape again, he can only escape to Liaodong County."
Ma Chao cupped his hands and said,
"The last general is willing to be the vanguard general and go to Liaodong County to retrieve Yuan Xi's head from the military advisor!"
Yang Ling smiled, waved his hand and said,
"That's not necessary. I'm afraid that within a few days, Liaodong Governor Gongsun Kang will take the initiative to send Yuan Xi's head over."
"Why?"
Ma Chao said curiously.
Gao Rou on the side smiled and said,
"The military advisors defeated Yuan Xi and Wu Huan one after another, and the world was shocked!"
"Although Gongsun Kang is ambitious, he will definitely not resist when faced with the power of our army!"
Seeing Gan Ning and Ma Chao's doubtful expressions, Yang Ling just smiled and said,
"If you don't believe it, let's wait and see!"
For the next period of time, Cao Jun temporarily stayed in Liucheng to rest.
Although Wuhuan was defeated this time, we have to admit that Wuhuan cavalry is still one of the most powerful cavalry in the world.
So while separately managing the Wuhuan people in the three counties, Yang Ling also mobilized tens of thousands of people to form the elite Wuhuan cavalry!
The days flew by.
On this day, Yang Ling was discussing the affairs of Youzhou with everyone.
But Zhou Cang hurried in!
"Inform the military advisor that Gongsun Kang, the governor of Liaodong, sent his younger brother Gongsun Gong to pay homage to the military advisor."
Hearing this, Yang Ling narrowed his eyes.
"Let him in."
After a while, the thin-looking Gongsun Gong walked in.
"I've seen the general with great facial features!"
"Gongsun Gong, why did your brother send you here?"
Yang Ling said calmly.
"Reporting to General Wu Guanzhonglang, due to the Yuan family's rebellion and the rampant Wuhuan, coupled with the long distance, Liaodong was cut off from the imperial court."
"But my brother has always been loyal to the imperial court. After learning that Wu Huan was defeated by General Wu Gen Zhong Lang, he immediately sent me to express my congratulations to General Wu Gen Zhong Lang."
"In addition, my brother also has a small gift to give."
Gongsun Gong said as he took off a baggage from his back, which contained a wooden box.
When he opened it, he saw that it was Yuan Xi's bloody head!
"This thief was defeated and fled to Liaodong, but he did not want to repent and still encouraged his brother to rebel."
"To serve as a warning, my brother beheaded this man and asked me to deliver it to him!"
Gongsun Gong explained.
"My brother is truly loyal to the imperial court."
Yang Ling praised Gongsun Gong and comforted him before asking him to step back.
After Gongsun Gong left, Gan Ning and Ma Chao looked at Yang Ling with admiration.
"The military advisor is really clever!"
Yang Ling just smiled and said nothing.
After Gongsun Kang's father, Gongsun Du, served as the governor of Liaodong, he took advantage of the chaos in the Central Plains and the court was unable to govern, so he became king and hegemony in Liaodong.
He conquered Gaoguli in the east and Wuhuan in the west, which made him famous overseas. He also called himself Marquis of Liaodong and Mu of Pingzhou.
After Gongsun Du passed away a few years ago, Gongsun Kang succeeded him, but like his father, he relied on the long journey and did not obey the imperial orders.
But this time Yang Ling commanded a mighty army, defeated Yuan Xi and Wu Huan, conquered most of Youzhou, and directed his troops towards Liaodong County!
Although under the management of the Gongsun family, Daifang County was set up in Liaodong, and Gongsun Kang had as many as 100,000 troops, he still did not have the courage to go to war with Cao Cao outright.
Otherwise, Guo Jia's legacy plan would not be so easy to determine Liaodong.
