The revival of the Han Dynasty must start with Dong Zhuo

Chapter 315: The Four Great Men's Dog
"Be bold!"

Fa Zheng's attitude undoubtedly angered these Xianbei leaders.

One of them was the first to speak out: "I am the Great Chanyu, who is as noble as the Emperor of Han. Why are you not following the etiquette of a monarch and a subject?"

Fa Zheng sneered: "In the past, Tan Shihuai offered tribute to Emperor Xiaohuan of the Han Dynasty but was rejected, which resulted in the Xianbei not being a vassal of the Han Dynasty until now. They are just a barbarian tribe! How dare a barbarian leader be compared with the emperor?"

Although it was Emperor Huan of Han who offered to grant the title of Chanyu to Tan Shihuai but was rejected, rather than Tan Shihuai wanting to pay tribute to Emperor Huan of Han and being rejected, these Xianbei people could not tell the difference because they had no written heritage.

They just heard Fa Zheng's arrogant words and immediately became furious.

"How dare you insult my Great Chanyu!"

Immediately, someone drew his knife!

The sound of the blade being unsheathed was extremely slow, as if two bones were rubbing against each other alternately, making a grating sound to the ears.

But both Fa Zheng and Gongsun Xu had blank expressions on their faces.

until……

Although it was a little dark, Gongsun Xu still recognized the other person: "Are you Yigui?"

The man who drew the sword, called "Yigui", had not yet recognized Gongsun Xu.

It was not until Gongsun Xu spoke that the other party remembered some things.

"It's really you."

Gongsun Xu also laughed: "Six years ago, you led your troops to attack Dai County, and were expelled by my father. Have you forgotten so quickly?"

"Last time, I remember you ran away so fast that I couldn't catch up with you. Why do you dare to show a knife to me now?"

Gongsun Zan was stationed in Youzhou, and most of the tribes on the grassland were defeated by the White Horse Volunteers under his command.

The Western Xianbei are naturally no exception!

"Are you the son of Gongsun Zan?"

The man was so frightened that he lost his voice and couldn't help but shout out!

Gongsun Zan!
Hearing this name, all the Xianbei leaders shuddered.

The former governor of Liangzhou, Dong Zhuo, was too far away from them.

But Gongsun Zan did indeed deal with these Xianbei tribes.

Even though Gongsun Zan later fell into depravity and retreated to Yanjing to defend it, the legend of the White Horse Volunteers still exists on the grassland!
Seeing that it was the son of an "old friend", Yigui's hand that was drawing the sword stopped awkwardly, not knowing whether to draw it or not.

Fa Zheng saw that Gongsun Xu used the name of Gongsun Zan to intimidate the opponent, and took the lead in momentum. He also took a step forward and raised his chin slightly.

"Your Excellency is going to use a knife on a Han?"

"Then can I assume that... you are declaring war on the Han Dynasty?"

!

A muffled thunder exploded in the Xianbei king's tent.

No one dared to breathe, and looked at Budugen in panic.

Even when the Xianbei were at their most powerful, when Tan Shihuai unified the grasslands, they did not dare to declare war on the Han Dynasty, let alone now?

Although all the news coming from the south let them know that the giant Han was now terminally ill.

But even so, the Han man was not someone their tribe could afford to provoke.

Even Budugen looked at his middle brother Fuluohan in confusion.

Aren’t Han envoys… supposed to be here to bring warmth?
Shouldn’t the Han envoy... beg me to deal with the Wuhuan?

Why are they declaring war right now?

Seeing that Fa Zheng had the upper hand in momentum, Fuluo Han knew that he could not allow him to continue to maintain the advantage and seize the initiative.

So the second most important person in the Western Xianbei also shook his head and said, "Why does the Han envoy have to be so mysterious?"

"Do you really think we don't know the purpose of the Han court sending the Han envoy?"

"It's just to prevent us from being wooed by Yuan Shao and helping Yuan Shao deal with the court. Now the court is asking for our help, but how come the Han envoy said that we are at a disadvantage?"

Following Fuluo Han's words, many Xianbei leaders slowly straightened their backs again.

Exactly!

It was clearly the Han court that needed their help, so how could they be frightened by a mere Han envoy?

Even Budugen looked relieved, realizing that the situation was under control.

"Ah."

But following Fa Zheng's sneer, a strange silence fell in the king's tent again.

……

……

Budugen really wanted to ask "Why is the Han envoy laughing?", but he was afraid that he would play into the other party's trap and lose the initiative.

Fuluo Han didn't know what Fa Zheng wanted to say, so he just remained silent.

Fortunately, the Han Dynasty envoys did not keep everyone waiting too long.

Deputy Envoy Gongsun Xu sneered again: "Who told you that the emperor sent us here to ask you for something?"

"You take yourselves too seriously!"

"Barbarians are barbarians after all. No matter how many there are, they are just some inedible livestock! How can the emperor take you seriously?"

Comparing the barbarians to livestock that cannot be eaten!
For a moment, even though these Xianbei leaders were afraid of the reputation accumulated by the Han Dynasty, they still looked at the group of Han envoys standing in the center with resentment.

Fa Zheng and Gongsun Xu still didn't care about the reactions of the crowd.

The Chinese nobles are superior to the barbarians!

This is the consensus of all scholars and common people in the Han Dynasty today!

Even the former powerful rival Xiongnu was defeated by the Han Dynasty, let alone others? Even when facing the Xianbei, who had once unified and gloriously conquered the Han Dynasty, the two men always maintained the same attitude!
Fa Zheng saw that the situation was becoming tense, so he finally spoke out his true intentions.

"To be honest, the emperor did not send only one group of envoys this time."

"The emperor also sent a group of envoys to the Southern Xiongnu tribe."

"in addition……"

Fa Zheng paused.

"In the future, the emperor will send envoys to the Kebineng tribe and the Xianbei tribe in the west..."

When talking about the Southern Xiongnu, Budugen and others remained indifferent.

But when Fa Zheng mentioned Kebi Neng and the Xianbei tribe in the west, the expressions of Budugen and others changed greatly!
Fa Zheng seemed not to notice this and continued to speak: "The emperor sent us Han envoys to select the right tribes and give them full support."

"The Han Dynasty has been away from the grassland for so long that you have all forgotten... There can only be one voice on this grassland! That is the voice of the Han Emperor!"

"This time, the emperor is not only preparing to attack Yuan Shao and pacify Hebei. He also wants to solve the border problems of the imperial court in one fell swoop!"

Seeing that someone seemed to want to refute, Fa Zheng raised his hand and signaled the other party to calm down.

"It is impossible for the imperial court to send a large army to the border right now. Even if I use the Xiliang Iron Cavalry to scare you, I'm sure you won't believe me."

"What the emperor really wants to do is to support a force among the tribes on the grassland and order it to watch over the grassland for the Han Dynasty!"

"This force could be the Southern Xiongnu, it could be you, it could be Kebi Neng, or it could be the Western Xianbei in Liangzhou!"

"For the emperor and the court, it makes no difference who they choose!"

"If you don't believe me, you can go to the Southern Xiongnu royal court and ask me if I have deceived you."

"The Son of Heaven will only choose one force!"

"The rest, no matter who they are, are enemies!"

Your Majesty, you are not here to win over the tribes of the grassland!
Son of Heaven, you are here to pick a dog!

The big man's dog!

Moreover, the emperor only chooses one!
The rest of the people will become food for this dog!
……

If anyone else said this, Budugen and others would not believe it.

But if it were these Han Dynasty envoys holding the red-feathered staff of the Great Man and walking among the tribes on the grassland... they would have to believe it!
Because the big man really has the ability to quickly raise a strong wolfdog that can dominate the grassland!

It would be fine if the dog chosen by the emperor was from the Southern Xiongnu.

After all, the Southern Xiongnu had always been the common ruler of the grassland, and even Tan Shihuai's father, Toulu Hou, was actually just a subordinate of the Xiongnu.

But what if...

If the dog chosen by the emperor was Kebi Neng or the Western Xianbei from Liangzhou...

"hiss!!!"

Heretics are more terrible than pagans!
They were both of Xianbei descent.

These people will only be more cruel, not gentle, towards Budugen!
If I fall into their hands...

Budugen, Fuluohan and the others couldn't help but shudder, and at the same time they all stood up! The eyes they looked at Fazheng and the others were once again filled with indescribable anger!
"If you want to kill me, you'd better do it as soon as possible."

Fa Zheng looked like a bachelor at this moment.

"Anyway, the emperor sent us here just to find out the situation of each tribe so that he can decide who to choose."

"If you kill me, it will just happen that the emperor will make a decision immediately to exclude you and contact other tribes more quickly so that they can annex you as soon as possible."

"so……"

Fa Zheng held the scepter in his hand, opened his arms and exposed his chest.

"If you want to kill me, please do it as soon as possible!"

"..."

The pupils of some Xianbei lords who had read a little bit of literature shrank!
They had heard of it before.

There is a kind of Han people who must not be provoked!
That’s the Han envoy!
They all wished for death so that they could leave their names in history...

Because with their death, the powerful Han army will eventually turn into angry flames and burn the enemy completely!
The Fa Zheng now is just like the Han envoy of the past.

Although these Xianbei leaders were sure that killing Fa Zheng would not attract the invincible Xiliang cavalry, who could guarantee that it would really attract attacks from the Southern Xiongnu, Kebi Neng, or the Western Xianbei as Fa Zheng said.

They can't afford the gamble.

The Xianbei Chanyu Budugen stood up and slowly walked in front of Fa Zheng.

The two were so close that they could hear each other's heartbeats.

Their eyes met, and Fa Zheng's were as cold as the night, without a trace of emotion.

"Boom!"

Budugen knelt heavily on one knee.

"The Xianbei Chanyu Budugen requests to submit to the Han Dynasty!"

"In this life, the Xianbei will always be subject to the Han Dynasty and be a vassal of the Han Dynasty! We will guard the border for the Han Dynasty!"

……

No!

The big man’s dog can only be me, Budugen!

Even though this approach was a little unfair to his grandfather Tan Shihuai, Budugen knew that this was the only way out!
Otherwise, this branch of the Xianbei tribe would be torn into pieces by others!

Fa Zheng felt refreshed when he saw the Xianbei Khan Budugen half-kneeling in front of him.

My lord, please be silent, and the Chanyu will bow down!
Use your power to control the country and use your strength to suppress others!
This is the Han envoy who was once invincible in the world!
