The Bingzhou cavalry did not continue to pursue Yuwen Mohuai to the west, but turned to the northeast and raided the Daling River, the old nest of the Yuwen Xianbei tribe.

  After Yuwen Mohuai got the news that the Bingzhou cavalry stopped pursuing, he was extremely happy, if the Bingzhou cavalry continued to pursue, then even if he could escape, he would definitely pay a greater price.

  But the next news made Yuwen Mohuai no longer happy, because although the Bingzhou cavalry did not continue to pursue them, they raided the Daling River and completely wiped out the lair of the Yuwen Department.

  Although this is expected news, Yuwen Mohuai is still heartbroken, after all, Da Linghe is his foundation, this time the nest has been contained, his wife and children have fallen, Yuwen Mohuai is a complete failure.

  The two major tribes of Eastern Xianbei were defeated one after another, and the entire Eastern Xianbei no longer had the ability to compete with the Wei army, this kind of situation was probably never imagined by anyone in advance.

  Yuwen Mohuai's grief is naturally inevitable, but at this time he has no way back, so he can only go to the clouds to go to Tuoba Liwei, begging him to send troops to defeat the Wei army to regain lost territory, and rescue the captured wife and children, after all, his wife is also Tuoba Liwei's daughter.

  The order to let the Bingzhou cavalry stop the pursuit was given by Cao Liang, how big the grassland is, Cao Liang naturally knows very well, even if it is to add up the entire territory of Wei, I am afraid that it is not as vast as the grassland, poor Kou Mo chases, since Yuwen Mohuai has fled, there is no need to pursue it for a long time, if you really want to pursue it like this, I don't know when it will be an end, which will be a great test for logistics support.

  The main reason is that continuing to pursue is not in line with Cao Liang's strategic arrangement, and after defeating Yuwen Xianbei, Cao Liang's biggest goal is to use this as a springboard to open a new road to Liaodong, and there is no need to look at the faces of the defenders of Linyu Pass.

  From the Daling River to the east, it is Liucheng, and Liucheng is the other end of the Liaoxi Corridor, far away from Linyu Pass, that is, if the Bingzhou army takes Liucheng, it is equivalent to perfectly bypassing Linyu Pass and opening a gate into Liaodong.

  If you bypass Linyu Pass to attack Liaodong before this, it is tantamount to being regarded as a fool's dream, belonging to a dream that is impossible to realize at all, but Cao Liang turned this dream into reality, in fact, back to the truth, it seems that it is not a particularly difficult thing to realize this dream, and the state army has only fought two battles, one of which is still an encounter, and the battle that is really prepared has only been carried out once, and Cao Liang only used one opportunity to get rid of the Xianbei people who made people talk about it.

  Since it is the only way to go to the Daling River in Liucheng, the raid on the nest of the Yuwen tribe is purely a matter of beating rabbits with grass, and it is easy to do it.

  After Yuwen Mohuai fled to the clouds, there were only some women, children, old and weak left in the entire Daling River, and there were almost no troops to resist, in fact, even if Yuwen Mohuai's whole division was here, I am afraid that it would not be able to resist the attack of the state army, and no matter how many troops there were, it would be in vain.

  At dawn, the cavalry surrounded the camp of the Yuwen tribe, the whole camp was quiet, except for a large number of cattle and sheep, there was hardly any sentry visible, after all, it was far away from the front line, and under normal circumstances, the war would not affect here, and the tribe lived relatively peacefully.

  The first to discover the appearance of the Bingzhou cavalry was not people, but some hunting dogs, and when they heard the movement, they barked incessantly, and woke up many Xianbei people, and when they came out of the tent, they were completely stunned by the admiration in front of them.

  The Wei cavalry surrounded the Yuwen tribe from all directions, and originally thought that there would be a fierce battle, but no one could have imagined that the Dalinghe camp was already an empty camp, except for the old and weak, women and children, there was almost no army to guard.

  In order to avoid the loss of life, almost no battles were experienced, and the people of the Yuwen tribe sent people to beg for surrender, and in order to survive, they did not hesitate to grovel and surrender to the Bingzhou army.

  The military discipline of the state army is very strict, even if the Daling River is obtained and the Xianbei people are controlled, there has not been a single case of forcible seizure and wanton looting, and there has been no bullying and rape of women.

  For a long time, the Hu people were synonymous with barbarism and ferocity, and after they entered the Central Plains, they burned, killed, looted, and did all kinds of evil, so the Wei army counterattacked Hu Rao, often countering violence with violence, most of the time with a kind of revenge nature, blood debts and blood repayment.

  This seems to be nothing to criticize, the killer is always killed, but when Cao Liang was in the annexation of the state, he did not use the method of exterminating the Huns, but took these Hun captives as labor, and squeezed their surplus value as much as possible.

  Therefore, Cao Liang has always strictly implemented the policy of preferential treatment of prisoners, and the slogan of those who surrender to avoid death was shouted extremely loudly, which also fundamentally broke the confidence of the Hu people to resist stubbornly after their defeat.

  As for how many of them survived the heavy labor, that's a story for another time, and the management of these prisoners of war by the state army was also quite strict, after all, the state side also had to come up with food to feed them, and if the value of their labor was not enough to cover these rations, then what was the need for them to exist? Eating and waiting to die? Don't even think about it!

  The policy of the Bingzhou army towards Hu Rao has been well implemented in Bingzhou, and these Hu prisoners of war have also contributed to the construction of Bingzhou, and now the conditions of Bingzhou have also been greatly improved, and the treatment of Xiongnu prisoners of war is much better than before.

  After entering Youzhou, this policy will naturally be extended to Youzhou, Cao Liang once clearly ordered to continue to implement the prisoner of war policy, and the troops of each battalion also habitually obeyed this order, so those captured Xianbei people were also spared from worrying about their lives.

  But then there will be heavy labor waiting for them, if you want to survive, you must pay their physical labor, and the food of the state army is not for nothing, how much can survive in the end, it depends on their physical condition and hard-working spirit.
