To Liu Xie's surprise, Ma Chao's suggestion won the approval of almost everyone.
Their reasons are similar to those of Xun You.
As enemies, since the Xianbei people were defeated, they had to accept the fate of being killed. Now they will not only not kill them, but also leave them to settle in Senei, but just cut off their right thumbs, which is simply a great kindness.
Not only that, even the Xianbei prisoners heard that as long as they cut off their right thumb, they could avoid death and stay in Senei, they were overjoyed. Some people couldn't wait for the Han army to do it, so they directly cut off their right thumb.
Looking at the bloody scene, Liu Xie didn't know what to say.
It is reasonable to die in battle, but he really didn't expect that self-harm can be so happy to be self-harm.
No matter what, the hidden danger of prisoners rebelling was finally solved.
The only one who was a little disappointed was Ma Teng.
Ma Teng originally wanted to pick some elites from the prisoners and enrich his strength, but because of Ma Chao's words, he cut off the fingers of these prisoners, making them unable to pull the bow or hold the knife, and became a half-waste man.
Ma Teng had a lot of objection to Ma Chao and blamed Ma Chao for a few words.
Ma Chao was remarkable.
What kind of Xianbei people are you? Isn’t it good for Qiang people?
Although the Qiang people often rebel, they were bullied by officials and could not survive, so they had to rebel and seek a way out. If today's son loves the people, the Qiang people do not need to rebel, so they are naturally good soldiers of the court. With a command, they can be summoned at any time.
Tens of thousands of elites.
Ma Teng was choked and said, pointing at Ma Chao, "Anyway, I'm going to be an official in the court, so I don't need so many people. Since you said that, don't complain to me when there are no soldiers available in the future."
Ma Chao disagreed.
If the soldiers are in the world, not the many. As long as Your Majesty can provide armor of ten thousand cavalry, I can dominate the world.
Zhang Yang, Zhang Xiu and others returned one after another, bringing back a large number of prisoners and spoils, especially war horses, so providing for the horses became a problem.
Fortunately, the Xianbei people who cut off their thumbs did not affect the mowing and grazing. Liu Xie selected some people from them and immediately took office to serve as the horse-wrangler of the Han Dynasty.
People were also short of food, so Liu Xie was unable to order people to collect serious injuries or even dead war horses, kill and eat meat, to solve the urgent problem.
In order to completely solve this problem, Liu Xie issued an edict to Xihe, Taiyuan, Hedong, and Shangdang, and ordered them to try to raise some food, seeds, and agricultural tools and send them to Meiji.
For this reason, he selected a large number of cattle and horses and sent people to various counties.
Spring plowing is approaching, and these cattle and horses can assist in farming and make up for the lack of manpower.
Lu Bu returned to Shuofang at noon on the third day.
He chased the farthest, chased the river all the way to the Great Seizure, and took the last bit of Fu Luohan's supply into his pocket. He captured more than 2,000 people, many of which were the elite soldiers of Fu Luohan's army, including a shooting eagle.
hand.
But Fu Luohan still ran away, and took advantage of the night and disappeared.
Lu Bu blamed himself for this, as if he had lost 100 million yuan.
Liu Xie ordered that all Xianbei prisoners cut off their right thumbs, and the Legend of the Condor Heroes were no exception.
The Xianbei people were tough and did it themselves without saying a word.
Although the royal service has not yet returned to the camp, the battle situation has come to an end.
The Xianbei people were completely wiped out, and the rebellious Xiongnu fell, and the white horse bronze was awarded one after another. The emperor's mission to conquer the north was successfully completed, and the next step was to reward him on his merits.
Against this background, Liu Xie summoned Hu Chuquan and went to the breeze.
As soon as I entered the tent, I called the kitchen spring and crawled on the ground.
"Shanyu, the Right King, are exempt from courtesy." Liu Xie'an couldn't sit still, but just raised his hand symbolically.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Hu Chuquan, got up, sat aside, and the cold sweat on his forehead kept flowing down.
"In this battle, Shanyu and the Right King were all meritorious ministers." Liu Xie said lightly: "I wonder what kind of rewards you two want?"
How dare Hu Chuquan and the other two dare to say it?
The example of Xianbei people is right in front of them, and they have no confidence to bargain. If they annoyed the emperor and the emperor cut off the right thumb of the Huns in anger, they would be completely abolished.
"It's only your Majesty." Hu Chuquan knew a little about etiquette and used an official cliché.
"Since Shanyu is humble, I will ask you a question first."
"Please ask your Majesty?"
"You have lived in Sene for so many years, are you comfortable?"
Hu Chuquan didn't understand what Liu Xie wanted to say, so he looked at him blankly. He understood, so he quickly poked Hu Chuquan and muttered a few words in his ear. Hu Chuquan looked embarrassed when he heard this.
, I stumbled for a long time and didn't say anything.
Aiken, who was beside him, saw it with disdain on his face.
Go and bow and salute. "Your Majesty, some people adapt, some people do not."
"Where is the Right King?"
"I am not very adaptable." Qubei said: "I still prefer the free life of shepherding horses and sheeping, and I am not willing to settle down."
"Okay, then I will give you a choice to go out with people who think the same as you, and continue your nomadic life as your ancestors."
Go to bow and say goodbye, just as soon as he was about to speak, Liu Xie said again: "But there are some differences here. The Huns are still my vassal state of the Han Dynasty. Even if you are nomadic outside the border, you are also a tribe of the Han Dynasty. I give you the power to trade with you,
Providing armor, arms and daily necessities will also provide relief when you are affected by disaster. In the future, the trade route will be given priority to you. Similarly, you also have the responsibility to pay tribute to the court. Everything is like a vassal state, how about it?"
It was a surprise to go away.
He originally thought that Liu Xie wanted to use the power of victory to expel the Huns from the frontier or force the Huns to become registered households.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, I wish to be a vassal of the Great Han Dynasty forever and guard the borders for the Han Dynasty."
Liu Xie smiled.
Just keep the borders for Han, I don’t plan to hand over your borders to you Huns to guard them. I send you out of the frontier just to compete with the Xianbei people, so that they can not let them develop too fast or smoothly.
In addition, letting you go out is also a way for me. If I stabilize the Central Plains in the future, I will inevitably walk on the grassland to see if I can go all the way west and push the broken wall in Rome.
At the southern end of Pingyikou, Luo Han held his mount and looked back south, and couldn't help but burst into tears.
Two hundred thousand people entered the barrier, and now there are less than twenty cavalry left by their side.
All his strength, including his two sons, was destroyed.
Even if he returns to the grassland, he will never make a comeback and become a great general.
"I am defeated in this battle. What else can I have to face and return to Chishan? I see King Tan Shihuai underground." Fu Luohan cried bitterly.
"Then don't go back." A voice came from above.
Fu Luohan was shocked and looked up. He saw a row of Han soldiers standing in the bushes more than ten steps above his head. He opened his bow and crossbow in his hands, and countless cold arrows were aimed at him.
The eyes were full of ecstasy.
"Wang Fu, the captain of the Yueqi Camp of the Great Han Northern Army, is here." Wang Fu laughed. "Help Luo Han, but he will die if he doesn't get off the horse, when will he wait?"
Fu Luohan shouted and reached out to draw his sword.
Wang Fu waved his hand and dozens of arrows shot instantly. Fu Luohan was caught in the arrow and fell off his horse, and he was so angry on the spot.
At the northern end of Pingyikou, Han Yin and Cheng Gongying were eager to see each other.
