To the north of Beidi County is Shuofang County, which belongs to Bingzhou.
There is no actual border between the two counties. They are separated by the Xitao Plain, one of the Hetao Plains.
Since ancient times, there has been a saying that the Yellow River is full of evils but only rich in one thing.
However, this set is not Xitao, but refers to the Houtao Plain to the north of the Xitao Plain.
Speaking of the Hetao area, we have to mention the specific location distribution.
The Hetao Plain is divided into three parts, the Xitao Plain adjacent to Beidi County, and the Qiantao Plain at the junction of Shuofang County and Wuyuan County, also known as Dongtao Plain.
And between Xitao and Qiantao, in the Houtao Plain in Shuofang County.
The saying that the Yellow River is full of evils, but only rich, points to the Houtao Plain alone.
The land here is vast, the water and soil are rich, and it is very suitable for the life of herders.
After the Xiongnu separated from the north and the south, the Han Emperor settled the surrendered southern Xiongnu in the Hetao area.
Since then, Xitao, Qantao and Houtao have become the pastures of the Huns.
When the Han Dynasty was powerful, the Huns were very honest and stayed in the Hetao area in a well-behaved manner. From time to time, they would obey the orders of the Han emperor to fight.
Since the Yellow Turban Rebellion and Dong Zhuo's political chaos, the Huns could no longer sit still.
The life of robbery they were accustomed to began again.
Beidi County, Shuofang County, and the counties in Bingzhou close to the Yellow River began to suffer unspeakably.
After Dong Zhuo's death, the Xiongnu occupied many cities along the Yellow River, which once extended to Hedong County.
Historically, Cai Yan was plundered by the Huns because the Huns plundered along the Yellow River.
Of course, under Liu Zhang's intervention in this life, the Huns lost their troops and generals in Hedong, suffered heavy casualties, and had already completely retreated back to Hetao.
Even the many cities that originally occupied the Yellow River in Bingzhou were abandoned.
But before the battle with the Qin army, the Huns were no worse than in history.
Neither Yuan Shao, who unified the four counties of Hebei, nor Cao Cao, who replaced Yuan Shao, thought about solving the huge problem of the Xiongnu.
In other words, from the beginning to the end, the forces that ruled Hebei had no intention of doing anything to the Huns.
This laissez-faire policy really hurt the people in Bingzhou and along the Yellow River.
Especially the Han people near the Hetao area, almost all became slaves of the Huns.
According to Wei Ju, since Dong Zhuo's death, Shuofang County, Wuyuan County, Xihe County, Yunzhong County, and Shangdang County in Bingzhou have all suffered large population losses.
Shuofang County was completely reduced to an empty city, with not a single Han citizen living there.
If the Qin army hadn't slaughtered the Xiongnu army with blood, the people of Hedong County would have been enslaved!
It's not all good, though.
The people of Hedong County moved to Guanzhong and could live a good life.
The people in the cities along the Yellow River suffered a lot.
The Xiongnu did not dare to offend Qin, so they had to abandon all their cities and return to Hetao.
They don't just return alone.
All the materials, population, and wealth occupied in the city were looted!
It is said that there are hundreds of thousands of people who migrate!
These people were not only used as hard labor and killed arbitrarily, but they were not able to have enough food and clothing at all.
When winter comes, a lot of people will freeze to death!
A large number of people's families were destroyed and their families were separated!
The entire Hetao can no longer be described as wealthy, it has simply become a hell on earth!
In addition, after being defeated by the Qin army and losing troops and generals.
The Huns gave up Qentao and Xitao, and all the tribesmen moved into Houtao.
It is also the most fertile piece of land in the Hetao area.
Here, the Huns are absolute gods!
After capturing a large number of Han people, the Huns were completely liberated, and even the work of herdsmen could be handed over to the Han people.
It's like living the life of an uncle.
As the saying goes, when you are busy, you don't have the time to think about messy things.
Once you are free, you will feel uncomfortable.
What's more, they start looking for trouble!
The first one to bear the brunt was the Huns' reckless and reckless man, Youxian Wang Qubei.
According to the current system of the Xiongnu, after the death of Shanyu, King Zuoxian will succeed him.
Who is King Zuoxian?
Tutanbao calls himself Liu Bao.
The relationship between Liu Bao and Qubei can be said to be the same as fire and water!
Since the last defeat in Hedong, the conflict has become increasingly abrupt.
No one was willing to give in, and Shanyu Huchuquan let him go.
Over time, the contradiction has reached the point of being irreconcilable.
Therefore, Qu humble's ambition began to expand.
Why can't Huchuquan's biological son succeed Shanyu, but instead give up the position of Shanyu to Liu Bao?
After Liu Bao came to power, how could he live a good life without being humble?
According to the current situation, whether he can survive or not is a question!
It’s true that Qu Bei has no brains, and it’s also true that he has no courage and plan, but it doesn’t mean that Qu Bei is a fool or mentally retarded.
On the contrary, Qubei cherished his life very much and could not just watch himself die at the hands of Liu Bao.
There is another fundamental reason that supports the rejection of inferiority and resistance.
When the Han Dynasty was first established, the position of the Xiongnu Chanyu was the same as the throne of the Han Dynasty, and was inherited by the eldest son.
Even the establishment of the Right and Left Wise Kings later was for better transition.
King Zuoxian is similar to the prince of the Han Dynasty.
However, precisely because of the position of King Zuoxian, everything changed.
It is not the only choice for the eldest son to serve as King Zuoxian.
This caused the problem that Liu Bao is now the virtuous king of the left, and Qubei is the virtuous king of the right.
Of course, we cannot ignore the legacy of the previous generation.
When Huchuquan's brother Yu Fuluo died, he passed the position of Chanyu to Huchuquan.
According to legal principles, after the death of Huchuquan, the position of Chanyu returned to Yufuluo's eldest son Liu Bao.
When Yu Fu Luo just died, everyone had this idea.
Including Qubei is no exception.
From the beginning to the end, I never thought about competing with Liu Bao for Shan Yu's position in the future.
People will always change.
Even in the Han Dynasty, there were people who wanted to drink tea, not to mention the Huns in the grasslands where the jungle was strong.
Who doesn’t want to pass down Shanyu to his descendants?
Slowly, Huchuquan also began to acquiesce and secretly supported Qubei.
Hu Chuquan's approach undoubtedly intensified the competition between Liu Bao and Qubei.
Until not long ago, conflicts broke out on a large scale, and there was almost a fight!
Chanyu Huchuquan, and the wise king Liu Bao on his left and right, went to Bei to discuss the problem of Qin being too powerful and how to deal with it.
Chanyu Huchuquan's idea was to unite with Cao Cao and jointly resist Qin.
To the east of the Huns was the territory of Cao Wei.
If Cao Cao agrees, he will lead his troops to move eastward when Qin's pressure becomes too intense.
King Youxian did not refute his father Hu Chuquan's proposal, but he also expressed his opinion of a reckless man.
Qubei believes that the Xianbei people who drove the Huns away from the grassland are currently at their weakest.
They can gather all the forces of the Huns and launch an attack on the Xianbei people.
If the Xianbei people can be driven away or eliminated, the Huns can become the king of the prairie again!
From now on, there will be nothing to fear!
Liu Bao, the Xian King of Zuo, expressed firm opposition to the suggestion of going to Bei.
