Three Kingdoms: Stealing the Tiger Talisman and forcing Yuan Shao to become a monk

Chapter 826
Man, in the pre-Qin period, was a derogatory term for the southern tribes in the Central Plains Dynasty.

During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, there were many ethnic groups in the Chu region in the south who called themselves "barbarians".

In the early Spring and Autumn Period, Chu launched a large-scale attack on the barbarians, and it was known in history that King Zhuang of Chu "greatly opened up the barbarians".

At that time, it also achieved great success, that is, to let the group of barbarians descend to Chu.

In the early days of the Warring States Period, after Qin Zhaowang ordered Baiqi to attack Chu, he took over the barbarians. The so-called "take the barbarians slightly, and first set up Qianzhong County", and then brought the barbarians in the Hunan, Hubei, Sichuan and Guizhou regions into rule.

Until the Eastern Han Dynasty, these barbarians were under the jurisdiction of the Central Plains.

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the princes in the Central Plains were in turmoil, and a large number of troops were devoted to internal friction.

For a while, the control over the barbarians was also somewhat relaxed.

And these barbarians gradually grew stronger.

Among them, the more powerful ones are the group headed by Meng Huo.

Because Meng Huo was not only brave in battle, but also always strong.

Leading people is also extremely loyal and won the hearts of the Yi people.

Therefore, they all elected him as the leader, and wanted him to lead the barbarians on a bright road.

And Meng Huo lived up to everyone's trust after he took the position.

It is to manage one's own tribe in an orderly manner.

And its population has reached unprecedented growth.

Even the number of soldiers is almost more than 50.

For a while, it reached an unprecedented peak.

Therefore, Meng Huo also had the confidence to stop paying tribute to the Han Dynasty.

And then there was a hint of unrest.

But Yizhou, which was originally governed by Liu Zhang, fell into Liu Bei's hands in an instant.

Meng Huo found out that Liu Bei was really strong, so he delayed the idea of ​​turmoil.

However, Liu Bei focused on the Central Plains at that time, so he ignored him and other small people.

As a result, Meng Huo quietly observed the movements in Sichuan.

It wasn't until he heard that Liu Bei had died and replaced him with a new master, that his ambition was ignited.

Immediately, he tentatively sent troops to plunder the people of Shu, hoping to see how the new king would react.

And the counties and counties that suffered the looting hurriedly reported to Zhuge Liang.

At that time, Zhuge Liang also wanted to let the matter go now, after all, the main problem is still with Yuan Jun.

It wasn't until Huang Yueying mentioned it today that she thought of a wonderful method.

He just wanted to try to send envoys to communicate with Meng Huo, and he wanted to lure the barbarians to the north to fight Yuan Tan.

So he wrote a letter and wanted to cooperate with Meng Huo.

He also granted Meng Huo some counties and counties with good land in Western Shu near Hanzhong City.

This made Meng Huo extremely excited.

In this barbarian land, my own clan was originally poor.

The current land can only be maintained by one's own tribe.

If you want to grow stronger, you need to expand the land.

But if you want to expand, you will inevitably go to war with the Shu army, and you will inevitably suffer damage at that time.

I also don’t know if it’s worth it.

However, now that the Lord of Yizhou has given him the land on his own initiative, there is no reason for him not to do so.

Then he readily agreed to Zhuge Liang's request.

Then he took an army of 50 to take over his own territory.

But he is a little unclear about one thing, after all, Yuan Tan has also entered Shu now.

And the next place to attack is to step through their newly acquired territory.

This also creates a conflict of interest between the two.

That's probably what Huang Yueying meant, so she asked Yuan Tan to help the Kingdom of Shu understand the turmoil of the barbarians.

And on my own side, I just promise some land that is about to be lost.

And when the two armies are at war, one's own side can also recuperate.

Although strength may not necessarily increase, at least the hearts of the generals and the people must be stabilized.

Then the party that deals with the next battle can have a chance of winning.

But when Zhuge Liang and Huang Yueying were thinking about this strategy, Yuan Tan was not clear about it.

Yuan Tan, who had just passed the Jianmen Pass, also rushed to Hanzhong City with everyone.

However, Yuan Tan's move made Huo Ge somewhat confused.

He really didn't know why Yuan Tan was so eager.

This army also did not stop, and wanted to directly capture the strongest city in Hanzhong.

However, he didn't know at this moment that Hanzhong City had long been under the jurisdiction of Yuan Jun.

In the middle of the night, he was too anxious thinking about Yuan Tan.

In order to be safe, you need to make up your mind a little bit before making a move.

But when Yuan Tan heard Huo Ge's remonstrance, he was about to burst into tears.

Then he said: "General Huo Ge, believe it or not, as soon as I get to Hanzhong City, I only need to shout to open the door, and the Hanzhong City will open the door for me."

Huo Ge felt that Yuan Tan was bragging a bit.

Even if Yuan Tan was really invincible as rumored, he wouldn't be able to make a loud shout and open the city gate in fright.

He also said: "Don't be joking, King Qi, this war is no joke."

Seeing that Huo Ge didn't believe it, Yuan Tan said, "Even so, let's make a bet. If I can really do it, you have to promise me one thing. If I can't, I'll promise you one thing."

Huo Ge saw that Yuan Tan was full of confidence in his words. Thinking about it, his own advice would have no effect.

Immediately, he also wanted to make Yuan Tan suffer a little bit, and when he got a promise from Yuan Tan, he would stop acting impulsively.

It is also a response to this matter.

In order to prevent Huo Ge from knowing about Hanzhong City in advance, Yuan Tan hurriedly called all the people who knew about it to settle them one by one.

They asked them not to tell Huo Ge anything about Hanzhong City before they arrived in Hanzhong City.

Although everyone didn't understand Yuan Tan's intention, they followed his order.

That's why Huo Ge also didn't know anything about Hanzhong City from other generals along the way.

When the army arrived at Hanzhong City, Huo Ge wanted to see how Yuan Tan could break through the Hanzhong City Gate with a single shout.

And Yuan Tan pretended to clear his throat, and rode forward alone.

Seeing this, Huo Ge was also a little worried, fearing that something might happen to him.

But the other generals didn't know what Yuan Tan was going to do.

Who knew that when Yuan Tan arrived at the foot of Hanzhong City, the soldiers on the city recognized him.

Then he hurriedly asked people to open the city gate.

Then Yuan Tan also shouted loudly: "I am Yuan Tan, king of Qi, open the door."

The defenders on the city were also taken aback, and recognized it by themselves, what is this king of Qi calling.

But Huo Ge worried: "If you shout like this, I'm afraid that the Shu army in the city will not only not open the door for you, but also shoot you with arrows. King Qi is too impulsive."

He wanted to hurry to get someone to help, but before he could say anything, he saw that the gate of Hanzhong City really opened.

For a moment, Huo Ge's jaw almost dropped.

Could it be that the title of King Qi is so easy to use?
