Chapter 933(2/2)
Fusu finished the cup of wine and said: "Before the Western Expedition, you were rewarded with titles for your merits. The older ones received the village pavilion, the younger ones received food and salary. In the future, you may also be granted the title of a county in the Central Plains. It is no better than having no master outside the Great Wall."
Is the land strong?”
However, the Chishan grassland left behind after the collapse of Donghu was beyond the reach of the Huns. It was full of temptations for Lou Fanren, but they were not the only ones to fight against localism. Other small tribes on the grassland were also eager to try.
Unlike Western Loufan, who is always good at dancing, finding a balance among the various forces and forming an alliance with Fusu may be a good choice for Eastern Loufan.
For Fusu, it was better for Lou Fanren to fill the gap left by Donghu than for the Xiongnu to expand without any resistance and occupy the entire grassland thousands of miles from east to west.
"It's too late for me to raise an army."
Fusu sighed, although it was not easy to conquer a thousand miles of territory with nothing in eight months and repelled Donghu's crazy attack, but compared to the anti-kings of the Central Plains, they were too weak.
"So I need everyone who can join me."
As long as it doesn't go against his way of life, he won't refuse anyone who comes.
"Otherwise, I won't be able to win this battle."
"There is no way to win the whole war!"
"What should I do if Lou Fan betrays me in battle?" Liu Ji was still worried: "You know, Rong Di has always been untrustworthy."
Fusu seemed a little drunk, so he took off his crown and placed it on the table, within Liu Ji's reach, but his eyes seemed to be very clear.
"Liu Ji, the people around me who want to betray..."
"Is it still less?"
These words made Liu Ji's hair stand on end, and he clenched the dagger hidden in his arms!
Fortunately, Fusu's next words made Liu Ji relax again.
"When we were in western Liaoning, some military scribes secretly conveyed news to Jiaodong. After investigation, we found out that he was assigned from Jiaodong, his family was in the hands of Chen Ping, and he had accepted bribes from Jiaodong merchants..."
Someone begged for mercy, hoping to send these people to the barrier in the far north of Liaodong.
But Fusu finally ordered his beheading!
But are all the traitors really killed?
The reality is this. The Haidong garrison, the people from Liaodong and Liaoxi, and the newly joined Lou Fan are like King Zhao of Zhou's ship that is stuck together with glue and may fall apart at any time.
Many people would jump to other ships at any time given the opportunity.
Fusu is already at the bow of the ship, and the ship is already moving in the water. No matter whether it is stopping or moving, there is a possibility of disintegrating and sinking. Only by accelerating forward, there is still a chance of landing!
But that shore is too far away from Fusu.
Just like the distance between western Liaoning and Guanzhong, not only was it beyond reach, but the news was also delayed by several months. Fusu still didn't know that Heifu had penetrated into Guanzhong, overthrew the regime of Hu Hai and Zhao Gao, and started drastic reforms.
I only had a vague expectation that he would definitely be faster than me.
Liu Ji withdrew, and Fusu came alone outside the camp. The night outside the Great Wall in late autumn was desolate, the moon hung high, and the sound of bamboo pipes echoed in the distance.
"From the moment I chose to lead everyone back west and clean up the old mountains and rivers from scratch, I couldn't stop."
He raised the wine bottle high, as if to honor the moon and his former self.
But eventually he turned to the southwest and paid tribute to his past friends:
"the same as you!"

ps: Today is still a chapter. In addition, I only blocked 4 chapters in the first volume. I can still salvage it and am looking for a way to release it. The other content is fine for the time being. Generally speaking, it is relatively light. Don’t panic.
Chapter completed!
