[Three Kingdoms] After offending Wei Guoquan, I went to the peak of my life

Both Wuhuan and Xianbei belonged to the Donghu tribe. They migrated southward since the Han Dynasty, paid tribute to the emperor, and were led by the guard Wuhuan Xiaowei.In order to appease the tribe, the court also granted the title of king and marquis.

Since the fall of the Han Dynasty, the various tribes of Wuhuan have been doing their own thing, ready to move.One of them had a leader named Tadun, who was brave and good at fighting, and the people all compared him to the famous Maodun Chanyu in Qin Dynasty.

Because Ta Dun and other leaders of the Karasuma tribe made contributions to Yuan Shao and sent troops to help him defeat Gongsun Zan, Yuan Shao had a good relationship with the Karasuma tribe headed by Ta Dun.This relationship even continued after Yuan Shao died of illness, and Tadun tried his best to accept the remnants of the Yuan family and accommodate Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang who had fled.

The unambiguous decision caused dissatisfaction among some people, especially Shanyu Louban of Liaoxi, who was extremely disgusted with this King Wuhuan who was once favored by his father and was more dignified and supported than himself, the real chief. Treat him as a thorn in the side and a thorn in the flesh.

The second son of the Yuan family, who was accepted by Tadun, did not like Tadun's viciousness and ambition.The two of them were originally nobles from aristocratic families. Not only were their family backgrounds prominent, but they also once ruled on one side. How could they see these people who were regarded as barbaric and vulgar?Because the tiger fell into Pingyang, they were taken in by the once scornful nomadic Donghu, and sent to live under the fence. Yuan Xi and the two were holding their breath, but seeing Ta Dun's superficially courteous treatment, they actually regarded themselves as the masters and regarded the remnants of the Yuan family as their own pockets. However, Shanyu Louban in Western Liao was domineering and impulsive, he was full of vigilance and hostility towards them, his nose was not his nose and his eyes were not his eyes. Yuan Xi and his two had accumulated more and more grudges against Wuhuan in the past two years.

Therefore, after the two of them discovered Lou Ban's distaste for Ta Dun, not only did they not have the idea to resolve it, but they also set up firewood and burn oil in the middle, hoping to take advantage of the dispute between Lou Ban and Ta Dun, just like they did in the past when they fought with Yuan Tan Zhengquan is the same as being profited by Cao Cao's fisherman.

They thought that Cao Cao would not attack Wuhuan so soon.Because Cao Cao just won Jizhou not long ago, and he hasn't fully grasped it yet.With the internal stability not yet complete and Jing, Yi, Jiangdong and other places watching outside, Cao Cao could not risk being attacked by the south and travel long distances to Wuhuan to confront them.

It wasn't just Yuan Xi who thought this way, the leaders of Wuhuan including Ta Dun also tacitly understood this.

They didn't know that there was a word called "reverse thinking", and they didn't know that there was a bold adviser surnamed Guo under Cao Cao's account, who made strategies like a game and acted unexpectedly.In their opinion, Cao Cao, who should be able to fight steadily, actually listened to this incredible proposal, and came to attack Wuhuan in a hurry before Jizhou was warmed up.

Therefore, when they received Gongsun Kang's secret letter and learned that Cao Cao had sent troops to Wuhuan, everyone in the group was dumbfounded.

Yuan Xi, Ta Dun and others quickly assembled tens of thousands of soldiers and horses to attack Cao Jun outside Liucheng.

But when they set up an ambush in the fort according to the tips from the intelligence, and waited for several days, they didn't see half of the army.

After waiting for another half a month, some of the little Wuhuan chieftains became impatient.

"Is Gongsun Kang's information true? Could it be a bluff?"

"I just said how could it be possible for Cao Cao to come and attack us. He is not crazy. To fight Wuhuan at this time is to hand over his territory to Liu Biao and others?"

There are also a few vigilant little leaders who think that although Gongsun Kang usually has a lot of quarrels with them, he should not lie to them about this kind of matter.

"Perhaps Cao's army caught the plague halfway and died, or he got the news that the base camp was captured by the south, so he went back halfway."

Most people think that Cao Cao never sent troops to attack Wuhuan, or marched halfway back.A small number of people left thought that Cao Jun's road was delayed due to various things, and he would not be able to make it for a while.

Only Ta Dun and Yuan Xi sensed the unusualness in it, and felt strong anxiety and doubts.

After waiting for another four or five days, Cao Cao was still nowhere to be seen, and some Wuhuan tribesmen had already returned with their men.The tribe's manpower was already insufficient, and they were divided into several small tribes to do their own thing. After a delay of more than half a month, no one was grazing, and the cattle and sheep were starved and thin.

They didn't dare to complain about Tadun, but the reasons for leaving were ready-made: people were needed for grazing and working, so they couldn't just starve to death without waiting for Cao Cao's army, right?

No matter how anxious Ta Dun was, he knew that what these little chiefs said was true.He could only comfort himself: I heard that Cao Cao abandoned his luggage and went on the road, so they must not bring much food and grass.In more than half a month, the food and grass that could be carried with them had already been eaten, and Cao Jun had not appeared for a long time. Maybe it was what they guessed——Cao Jun had an accident halfway, or the base camp was attacked and rushed back to save the city.

Even if Cao Jun hadn't left, they had run out of food and grass and couldn't even feed themselves. They were just a group of weak and sick soldiers, so there was nothing to be afraid of.

Ta Dun was relaxed because of this, but he still sent a small team to guard the fortress in order to observe the abnormal situation, and always be on guard against the appearance of Cao Cao's troops to prevent the enemy from sneaking in.

The others were not so vigilant.The nomad soldiers are active by nature, squatting in this place is more uncomfortable than working endlessly.They chatted and talked about everything to relieve their boredom.Ta Dun knew the temperament of the people, in order to let them continue to guard, he simply turned a blind eye, let them say, just don't miss the business.

At the beginning, the shepherds were quite modest, and they only talked about innocuous topics such as eating, drinking, having fun, and love between men and women. Later, someone who started it said that Yuan Xi, who looked like a noble son, had received a message some time ago. A letter sent from the south, he was so angry that he drew his sword and cut the letter into eight sections, which made his face black for several days.

When everyone heard it, they all wondered: "What kind of content was written in that letter, and Yuan Erlang made such an appearance?"

"Who knows. There is a rumor that after Yuan Erlang fled, his mother and daughter-in-law both fell into Cao Ying, one belonged to Cao Cao, and the other belonged to Cao Cao's son Cao Pi, hey, this is why both father and son are missing ah."

A shepherd soldier who never liked the children of the Han family said with a smile: "Worthless boy, he ran around with his head in his arms when he was defeated, leaving his old lady and his wife to die. If he changed to an unknown master, he would have killed them long ago. How can anyone stay?"

"Can this Yuan Erlang be considered a man? My Wuhuan tribe has never seen such a man who abandons his wife and mother..."

The other person was talking excitedly when he suddenly saw the surprised and flustered expressions of the people on the opposite side.

He realized something was wrong, and just as he stopped speaking and wanted to look back, his half-turned face was suddenly hit by a fist, and he fell to the ground distorted.

The person who punched him was Yuan Xi. Although he was a child of an aristocratic family, he had practiced martial arts since he was a child. The power of this punch was no less than that of a warrior in the tribe.

These people were a little nervous and embarrassed because they were said bad things about others behind their backs, but now they saw that their clansman was beaten by this foreigner, and they suddenly became angry to protect their shortcomings.Several people stood up to block people's arguments, and were discovered by several members of the Yuan family who were aware of the movement. They thought they were gathering a crowd to beat Yuan Xi, and soon they came to one place.

No one noticed that a small group of people took advantage of the scuffle of these people and quietly climbed over the wall under the cover of the woods, slipped into the fortress, and quickly disappeared within their sight.

When Ta Dun heard the news, the people on both sides had already been beaten black and blue.

He was anxious and angry, and asked the person in charge of the guard in the fortress to ask why he didn't stop it.

The person in charge was embarrassed at first, and then he said unhappily: "Yuan Xi is just a bereaved dog, taking advantage of Shan Yu's power to linger on. Speaking of Shan Yu's great kindness to him, even if he doesn't repay him, he should think about it. Don't provoke right and wrong at will. Although the guards and others said a few words behind their backs, they didn't say anything wrong. Then Yuan Xi was not a kind and decent person, but after being said a few words, he turned into anger and started fighting with the herdsmen of my tribe. So-called."

"At such a juncture, it is time to unite, how can you make such a thing?"

The person in charge didn't take it seriously: "Why should the king worry? The Yuan family's influence is exhausted, and the rest are nothing more than stragglers, not worth mentioning. My tribe takes them in, and they are the only ones who respect us. How can we invite an ancestor back? If you want to annoy us, just drive them out. Doesn't it mean that Yuan Xi thinks he is the master of Jizhou and we are his subordinates?"

Ta Dun didn't know this reasoning, if Cao Jun hadn't come to attack, Yuan Shao's remnants would have been driven out as soon as they were driven out, which was not as important as the people's hearts of the tribe.

But now that Cao Cao's army is approaching, and he can't find anyone, it's completely weird. At this time, he needs help, and the more people the better, how can he cause internal strife and make people's hearts uneven.

What's more, although Yuan Xi hasn't entered the core of Wuhuan in the past two years, he still knows a lot of things, at least he knows the terrain well. Then wouldn't it be a joke for him to take in the remnants of the Yuan family?

But Ta Dun didn't explain much, and only asked the person in charge to take the clansmen who caused the trouble to apologize to Yuan Xi, and then sent some cattle and sheep to appease these clansmen.

But there are some things that can't be appeased by some benefits. Those clansmen were angry in their hearts, and they unconsciously felt a little bit of resentment towards Ta Dun.

People on Yuan Xi's side were also very dissatisfied.They are not fools, and they can see that Ta Dun's actions are protecting their tribe.A flirtatious apology is not painful or itchy, without even a symbolic scolding or punishment, what is it?

This matter spread to other people's ears, and the disputes between several people turned into conflicts between Wuhuan headquarters and foreign forces. Often, the two forces would quarrel and fight each other.

Ta Dun felt that people's hearts were fluctuating. After being questioned by other leaders, big and small, he finally made up his mind, weighed the pros and cons, and stopped getting along with each other.

He chose to control and imprison Yuan Xi and others—even if it took time and effort, he could not drive them out of the tribe at this time to avoid hidden dangers.

At this time, the forces headed by Lou Ban suddenly attacked and caught him by surprise.
