Just as Liu Yuan was about to take his death as if he was home, he was passionately encouraging the Huns to fight to the death, he suddenly heard a shout of killing coming from behind Mayi City, which was the north, and the sound was shocking.

Liu Yuan was stunned. What was the situation? Liu Yuan knew very well that although he had formed an alliance with the Sima Division when he entered Bingzhou, the Sima Division only provided some weapons and equipment assistance at most, and did not send troops to help him. Therefore, Liu Yuan could only fight alone, and success or failure was only his personal matter.

But suddenly, killing sounds were everywhere in the north, as if it was a movement of a large army. Liu Yuan was happy. No matter who came, at least he was a friend but not an enemy, as long as they could help Liu Yuan overcome this difficulty, Liu Yuan could call him father.

The biggest probability is the Xianbei people. After all, after all, it is Tuoba Liwei's territory when it leaves Yanmen County, so it is very likely that Tuoba Liwei's troops appear outside Mayi City.

What made Liu Yuan curious was how could Tuoba Liwei's men appear outside Mayi City so coincidentally, even more accurate than the promised one? Liu Yuan also led his army to Mayi not long ago, and he had never contacted Tuoba Liwei in advance. Even if he was preparing to defect to Tuoba Liwei, it was Liu Yuan's intention to do so temporarily. So how could Tuoba Liwei know that he would be here?

Liu Yuan was full of doubts, but no matter what the reason was, as long as he came to help him, it would be a good thing after all, and it would be much better than his death at the hands of the Bingzhou Army.

So Liu Yuan gave up the idea of ​​a decisive battle with the Bingzhou army and ordered the Huns to continue to attack Mayi City and cooperate with the reinforcements on the opposite side to carry out operations. As long as they can take Mayi City, they will be resolved immediately.

Originally, when the Huns attacked Mayi City, the defense forces in the city could barely defend, but now a large team suddenly appeared behind Mayi City, and was equipped with excellent siege equipment. Mayi City was attacked from front and back and fell quickly.

Liu Yuan felt relieved and quickly opened the city gate, entered one after another, and entered Mayi City.

The first thing he saw was indeed the banner of the Xianbei people, which was exactly the same as Liu Yuan's guess. After both sides killed all the Bingzhou defenders in the city, they naturally stopped the war. At this moment, a general flashed out of the Xianbei people and bowed to Liu Yuan, saying, "Are you the Huns' Chanyu Liu Yuan?"

Liu Yuan was very curious. It is said that he had never had any interaction with the Xianbei people, so how could the Xianbei people know their names? Moreover, among the troops, the other party recognized him at a glance. Obviously, the other party had a comprehensive grasp of his information.

However, since the other party rescued them from the Bingzhou Army, there was obviously no malice. Liu Yuan stepped forward and bowed, "I am Liu Yuan, I don't know who he is? The kindness of helping one should be repaid in the spring."

The speaker was very young, about the same age as Liu Yuan, and he looked in his twenties. He smiled and said, "In the Tuoba Desert Khan, my father was Tuoba Liwei. I heard that Liu Shanyu was in danger in Bingzhou, so my father ordered me to come and help me. Fortunately, Liu Shanyu was safe, so I felt at ease."

It turned out that Tuoba Liwei had been paying attention to the situation in Bingzhou. Since the destruction of the Murong tribe and Yuwen tribe of the Eastern Xianbei, Tuoba Liwei regarded Cao Liang as the strongest opponent of the Xianbei people. Now Yuwen Mohuai and Duan Rilujuan led the remnants to surrender Tuoba Liwei, which greatly increased the power of Tuoba Xianbei, but Tuoba Liwei's worry has not diminished at all.

After Cao Liang annexed Youzhou and Jizhou, his strength increased greatly, which made Tuoba Li very scared and became a confidant.

There was also a deep hatred between Tuoba Liwei and Cao Liang. When he was in Yanmen, Cao Liang defeated Tuoba Xianbei and forced Tuoba Liwei to move the capital to the desert. Fortunately, the Xianbei people have always lived by water and grass, and there was not much concept of a royal capital. Otherwise, the turmoil caused by the capital would be enough to damage Tuoba Li's vitality. It would be difficult for decades to recover.

Later, when the situation eased a little, Tuoba Liwei moved Wang Ting back to Shengle, which was far away from Yanmen Pass in Bingzhou, only a few hundred miles apart. Tuoba Liwei could also grasp the trends of Bingzhou at any time.

Even if the war with Cao Liang failed once, Tuoba Li's desire to look at the Central Plains has not yet died, especially after annexing Yuwen Mohuai and Duan Rilijuan from the Xianbei in the Eastern Region, Tuoba Liwei's strength has increased greatly, which further strengthened Tuoba Liwei's desire to advance south.

Tuoba Liwei is cunning and insidious. It was precisely by killing his wife and certifying the truth that he annexed the power of his father-in-law's family that he gradually became stronger and became the overlord of the grassland.

Although he had bad intentions about Central Plains, he knew how to tolerate it. When facing his enemy Cao Liang, he deliberately welcomed him. In order to curry favor with Cao Liang, Tuoba Liwei also sent an envoy to Bingzhou and presented a large number of tribute items, hoping to repair his relationship with Cao Liang.

This method is also a common method used by all the Hu tribes. When they were strong, they often plundered everywhere and did not take the court seriously. After being defeated, they would shake their tails and beg for mercy and offer a large number of tributes in exchange for court forgiveness.

The imperial court's conquest of the Hu people outside the Great Wall was often superficial. Because the grassland and desert were vast and the land was sparse, it was extremely difficult for the imperial court to manage it. Therefore, after the court won a victory, it would not kill all the Hu people, but instead adopted the means of gentleness, focusing on slaughtering and using both suppression and comfort.

The court has always accepted the tribute of the Hu people, which is in line with the concept of defeating others without fighting. The Han court has greatly benefited. In many cases, the emperor rewarded the rewards, and the value of the Hu people is even far higher than that of the Hu people.

The Hu people will use this time to rest and recuperate. When they are full of wings or war in the Central Plains have an opportunity, they will immediately betray their faith and make a large invasion, causing the Central Plains to suffer from war.

Cao Liang naturally saw Tuoba Liwei's little thoughts and tricks. In front of the Xianbei envoy, he burned all the tribute items, cut off one of the envoys' ears, and returned him back to the grassland.

Cao Liang's actions aroused great dissatisfaction among the Xianbei people. Tuoba Liwei took the initiative to show weakness and reconcile, but Cao Liang refused to accept it, which shows that both sides were already in vain.

This completely cut off Tuoba Li's slutty mind. It seems that Cao Liang is really a person who does not get into the oil and salt, and does not eat soft and hard. The tricks used by the Hu people in the past did not work at all for Cao Liang. In other words, Cao Liang regards them as mortal enemies and may launch an attack at any time.
