Liu Yu had already expected it. He knew that Babasong would ask this question sooner or later, because if he were in Babasong's position, he would definitely ask the same question. He smiled slightly and looked into Babasong's eyes: "
Master Ba Ba, since I have come to persuade you to join Tuoba Si, I should naturally be sincere and tell you the truth. My name is not Cang Lang, but Liu Yu, Liu of Liu Bang, Yu of Fu, a surname from the Jin State."
Babasong murmured the name twice, and suddenly his face changed: "Liu Yu? Are you the hero of the Feishui War in the Beifu Army of the Jin Kingdom?"
Liu Yu smiled and nodded: "It seems that I am still somewhat famous. Even on the grassland, some people know about me."
Babasong smiled and said: "No wonder this name sounds so familiar. No wonder you have such ability. It turns out you are an elite member of the Beifu Army. Although the information on our grassland is not very bright, we can still know it from the merchants who come and go.
Some things that happened in the Central Plains. The Battle of Feishui was a great battle that decided the world. The millions of troops of the former Qin Dynasty collapsed in one battle. This is an incredible thing. Whether we are tribal leaders or those who want to learn war,
Generals all need to know something."
"I learned about the battle situation at that time from some tribal warriors who participated in the Qin Army who participated in the Battle of Feishui. You led the army to cross the Feishui River by force. Along the way, you defeated many elite Qin troops, and finally scared them away with tiger skins.
The Qin army's chariots fought all the way to Fu Jian's commander's flag. They are the most worthy warriors. We grassland people originally thought that the Han people in the south of the Yangtze River were weak in culture, but we didn't expect that there were heroes like you. It's really great to see one of you today.
You are lucky."
Liu Yu sighed and waved his hand: "Those are things in the past and not worth mentioning."
Babasong smiled and said: "You made such a great contribution in the Battle of Feishui. You should be promoted to a general in the Jin Kingdom. The last time the Jin army went north to Hebei and attacked Yecheng directly, why didn't I hear your name?"
Liu Yu shook his head: "Those are the internal affairs of our Jin State. They involve military and political secrets. I'm sorry to tell you. I can only tell you one thing, that is, I also participated in the Battle of Hebei. It was in that battle that
I met Tuoba Si, who was working as an attendant next to Murong Chui at that time, and our relationship started from that day."
Ba Ba Song frowned: "The Jin army was defeated and retreated to Henan. I heard that the Central Plains and Qilu have lost most of them. At this time, you are not serving the Jin State to stabilize the war situation, but what are you doing in the grassland?"
Liu Yu said seriously: "Because we have a common enemy, Murong Chui. Whether it is against me, the Jin Dynasty, or your grassland, his Yan State is a formidable enemy. Tuoba Si was returned to the grassland by Murong Chui, and I pretended to surrender to Murong Chui.
, Murong Chui thought that I could be used to monitor Tuoba Si, so he asked me to come to the grassland under the pseudonym Canglang. On the surface, I was to be the middleman responsible for contacting Tuoba Si and him, and to help Tuoba Si seize power when necessary.
, but in fact, you want me to monitor Tuoba Si closely, and if I find that he is powerful and ambitious, I will get rid of him."
Babasong took a breath of air: "I didn't expect that Murong Chui would have such ambitions. I thought Tuoba Si came back to deal with Liu Xian. Murong Chui would fully support Tuoba in order to protect the grassland from hostile forces.
Si, I didn’t expect that he would be so wary of Tuoba Si.”
Liu Yu sighed: "After all, the Tuoba family has been the overlord of the grassland for hundreds of years, and Tuoba Si is the eldest grandson of Dai State and the most legitimate heir. After all, Liu Xian has no ambition and arrogance, and the Dugu tribe is not popular among the tribes.
It is difficult to become a great weapon, and Tuoba Si has the potential to unify the desert and pose a strong threat to the Central Plains. Because Hebei has been in war for many years, Murong Chui needs a few years to recuperate, so he has to release Tuoba Si to restrain Liu Xian, but he must not
He would not sit back and watch Tuoba Si really dominate the desert, so I was his spy on the grassland. He knew that as a Han Chinese, I hated Hu people the most and had no good impression of Tuoba Si, so he asked me to do this.
"
Babasong frowned: "But why should he believe you? You are a Han and his enemy. Even if he doesn't know that you are pretending to surrender, is it right to entrust such an important task to you, a newly surrendered outsider?
A bit exaggerated?"
Liu Yu smiled and waved his hand: "The reasons are very complicated. Some things are confidential and I can't say more. But I can tell you that first, Murong Chui cannot use his nephews from the Murong family to spy on Tuoba Si. He
The original intention was to send a son to lead troops to escort Tuoba Si back to take over the throne, but Tuoba Si refused. He did not want to be a puppet of the Yan State, let alone be seen by the grassland ministries as someone who relied on the power of foreign enemies to take the throne.
Therefore, Murong Chui had no choice but to find someone he could trust. Because of some previous relationships, Murong Chui's younger sister Murong Lan and I were close friends in life and death and loved each other. Murong Lan had been running Murong Chui's business for many years.
The family’s intelligence network has informants and killers all over the world. I agreed to marry Murong Lan, so Murong Chui felt free to let us couple come to the grassland."
Babasong's eyes widened in surprise, and he turned to look in the direction of the big pit in the distance. Murong Lan, who was standing on horseback by the pit, shook his head in disbelief: "Your wife is the beloved one. She is Murong Lan."
Princess?"
Liu Yu nodded affirmatively: "Yes, it's her. Now she and I are not our true colors and have disguised ourselves. But Tuoba Si knows this. There are no secrets between us husband and wife. When you see Tuoba Si
Queen Si, you can ask him face to face, but I want to remind Mr. Baba that these things I said are top secrets and must not be known to a third party. Even your wife and son cannot reveal half of it.
If this is revealed, not only Tuoba Si and you may be killed, but the revival of Dai country will also be completely hopeless."
Ba Ba Song gritted his teeth: "Of course I know this, but since Murong Lan is the eldest princess of Yan, why would she help you deal with your eldest brother? Is your plan also hidden from her?"
Liu Yu said sternly: "No, my beloved and I have been brave enough to face each other and have experienced countless lives and deaths. There is no secret between us. In the eyes of others, she is an indescribably precious princess of the Yan Kingdom, but only I know that she
She is a killing machine that has been trained as a killer and spy since she was born. She has experienced the most cruel and inhumane training. Before meeting me, she did not even have her own emotions. She was just a tool manipulated by her elder brother. Now I am just
I want to finish the grassland thing with her, and then retire to the woods and springs, without caring about worldly affairs."
Babasong was surprised and said: "What, go into seclusion in Linquan? Aren't you working for Tuoba Si? If you really help him regain the throne of Khan and restore the Dai Kingdom, you will be the number one hero, and you will naturally be the king, marquis and general in the Dai Kingdom.
No problem."
Liu Yu smiled and said: "Famous and rich are not what I want. I have my own considerations and principles for helping Tuoba Si. I don't want to be a minister of the dragon. You should ask Tuoba Si yourself about this."
