Chapter Seventy-One: Zhao Xin's Calculations

"Well said! The good thing is that you have forgotten that you are of Han and Miao descent. Fortunately, you have forgotten that thousands of Han Chinese will suffer when the Huns attack. You've all been to the grassland, think about what kind of life the Han slaves lived.

Shuofang has already been broken, and this time the Huns have come with 200,000. The next place is Ma Yi, and what about after Ma Yi? Taiyuan, Hanguguan, Chang'an!

A chopstick is easy to break, but a bundle of chopsticks is very difficult to break. If we Han people do not unite again, our ancestral temple and community lineage will be reduced to ashes. We are all sinners through the ages, and one day you will face your fathers and fathers. How will you face your descendants on the corpse? ”

Yun Xiao put down the soup bowl, his hands fluttering like cramps, impassioned like a mad dog. The generals below were all stunned, and they didn't know why this Hou Ye was so excited. Isn't it just a matter of sending troops, why make such a fuss.

"I've made up my mind, send troops!" Yun Xiao didn't give these guys much nonsense, and announced his decision in one sentence.

Wei Qing marched to Hangu Pass, and two pieces of news, one good and one bad, came from one after the other. The good news is that Yun Xiao has agreed to send troops, and the Yun family's soldiers and horses are gathering. They will march into the Han realm by sea and land, with the help of the invincible Yun cavalry. Wei Qing felt that it would not be a problem to kill the 200,000 Hun cavalry led by Yi Zhixian.

However, the bad news soon came, and the Mayi had been captured. The Huns were in Mayi Dasuo for three days, and now the front of the army continues to the south to approach Taiyuan.

"General, I'm afraid that this battle plan will change. Ma Yi has been breached, and we can only hurry to Taiyuan to make sense. Li Guang, who was re-recruited, suggested to Wei Qing.

The fall of Ma Yi messed up all the arrangements of the Han Dynasty, and it was expected that Ma Yi could hold on for ten days and half a month. Wei Qing and Yun Xiao's army, one went to Ma Yi to fight Yi Xian to fight under the city of Ma Yi. The other way, straight behind Yi Zhixian. So that the defeated Yizhi slanted army could no longer slip back to the grassland. The best effect is to defeat the Ichigo Slanche. Yun Xiao led his cavalry to sweep the grasslands. In this way, it was impossible for the Huns to invade the Han territory again for twenty years.

"Yes! Now it seems that I can only go to Taiyuan. It's a pity that Ma Yi has just flourished a little over the years. Ay......! The order went down, and the troops were sent to Taiyuan. Wei Qing reluctantly conveyed the order, and there were many towns along the way to Taiyuan from Ma Yi. But none of them could carry such a major battle. There is only Taiyuan, which can carry more than 400,000 people for large-scale exhibitions.

Yi Zhixian is very happy, how many years. He had forgotten the last time he had breached such a large city. Although there have been victories and defeats with the Han army over the years, most of the cities conquered are small county towns.

The Han-Hungarian border was not a rich place in the first place, and trade on the border was not developed due to the war. Most of the border residents are so poor that they are scum, and although the county town does not drop scum, it is also very poor. The Huns attacked those county towns many times, in fact, in addition to plundering some people and livestock. Gains are limited, especially food. Before the city was broken. The prefectural order must have ordered the grain depot to be burned.

This is the same as although the Huns won many battles, they still had to come to the Han border to plunder. This is also something that cannot be helped, after all, the gold and silver that have been looted cannot be eaten. If you want to fill your stomach, you have to eat food.

The granary of Ma Yi was also set on fire, but the granary of Ma Yi was very large. It was not burned clean for a while, and the granaries of the 40,000-strong army and hundreds of thousands of inhabitants were not very good. Less than 10% of the grain was burned, and the Huns killed it. The first thing they did when they entered the city was not to loot, not to kill people, but to be busy fighting fires.

Ichichi swore obliquely. This is the largest granary I've ever seen. God, if you bring them all back to the Mobei grassland. I'm afraid it's enough to eat the headquarters for a year.

"Big order, the granary has been taken down. You see, this is the corn that the Han people call a sacred object. I heard that one acre of corn can feed a family of five. If Da Dan chooses Han slaves to reclaim land in the grassland for planting, I am afraid that our Great Huns will no longer worry about food. Zhao Xinxing rushed over with a bag of corn for corn seeds. The Hun spies lost their heads not one or two. The damned Han Chinese always crushed the corn and shipped it to the Northland. Now that he has seen the whole corn, how can this not make Zhao Xin happy. After all, after staying in the Han realm for a few years, Zhao Xin is not completely rejected by farming. In his opinion, as long as he can eat enough, it is not a problem whether he is grazing or farming.

"Humph! Do you make our steppes. It became the same as the land of the Han people. Crops everywhere? If they all grow crops, then what is it called grassland? What else do we call the Huns. When King Huqiang heard Zhao Xin's words, he immediately retorted.

The Han people cultivated, and the Huns hunted and graze. This is one of the most basic rules in this world, and Zhao Xin, who has returned from the Han realm, will sell the ideas of those Han people to Yi Zhi at the first opportunity, which is really hateful. Today, seeing that he was selling the idea of farming to Da Shan Yu again, King Huqiang immediately jumped out.

"Yes, the Han people farm so they are sheep. We, the Great Huns, are wolves! If it's a wolf, you can't do what a sheep does, huh! Farming, when do you see a wolf eating grass. It's not too late for you to talk about farming. "The king of Yougu Li has always been friendly with the king of Huqiang. They are all staunch defenders of the honor of the Great Huns, and they have always hated farming. Similarly, they all have no good impression of Zhao Xin.

Zhao Xin didn't expect that he would be robbed so much by saying a word. Looking at these powerful old guys, Zhao Xin had to swallow this breath. No way, who makes people have more families. Most of the people on the grassland have nothing to look at, and the only barrier is who has a powerful knife and who has superb archery. The Han people have a saying that right and wrong are not only based on strength, but justice is no longer popular. It is very appropriate to describe the Huns.

"Okay, don't rob the second king. The first to rush into Ma Yi this time was the men of the second king. In terms of meritorious deeds, this big single is absolutely fair. Didn't you always like that slave girl called Guo'er Han? This is a ......! ”

"Wait!" King Huqiang immediately jumped out. Everyone knows, in order to compete for this woman. Zhao Xin and Amu have been competing for more than ten years. It seems that this time Yi Zhixian is really happy, and he actually ended the competition that lasted for ten years on the battlefield.

"What does King Huqiang have to say?" Yi Zhixian asked curiously, but in fact, his heart was already happy. He knew that this old thing would jump out.

"Da Shan Yu, if it is said that since the second king is the first to rush into Ma Yi this time. But Da Danyu should not forget who took Shuo Fang. As far as Lao Chen knew, Amu Wanqi also liked this Han family slave girl named Guo'er very much. If it is Dadanyu, give this woman to the second king. I'm afraid it's going to hurt Amu Wanqi's heart. "Amu is the hardcore younger brother of King Huqiang, and Amu is not present at this time. As the boss, it is natural to stand up for this little brother.

"Oh, what does King Huqiang think. In order to show the fairness of this order? Yi Zhixian said a little playfully.

"There are two ways, one is to evaluate their merits after the war. Naturally, those who have achieved great merit will be rewarded, and the worst of them will have to split the woman. One person and half are. "King Huqiang only cares about his own face, and as for Guo'er's life and death, it is really not a problem. Sometimes, it is better to lose face than to lose face.

"Okay, I'm happy to see which of you can get this beauty in the end. Since the second king, you have to work harder, I don't want to split that woman in half and give it to you. Yi Zhi slanted at Zhao Xin, who was embarrassed, and said.

"No! The subordinates will definitely fight bravely to kill the enemy, and they will definitely help Da Danyu to take Taiyuan. Let the Great Huns have no worries about food within three years. "Zhao Xin is also ruthless this time, and this expedition will get the fruit no matter what. End this decade-long strife. In a way. This dispute has become a struggle between the old and new forces of the Xiongnu.

"Okay, the next battle is Taiyuan. This single will send you and Amu to attack the city separately, and the first to break through the city gate wins. That slave girl is the winner of this victory, and you two need to work harder. Yi Zhi slanted at the Hun soldiers who were busy looting, and had already aimed the next target at Taiyuan.

Wei Qing and Yunxiao starry night rushed to Taiyuan, but Yi Zhixian was still digging three feet into the ground in Ma Yi to plunder. Many rich families knew that the Huns were going to break the city, so they buried their belongings. Many people even have cellars at home. Those who have beautiful daughters in the house are also hidden. Sometimes even the mastiffs of the steppe can't tell where these cellars are.

At this time. The role of traitors is highlighted. Zhao Xin is a good hand at mobilizing the masses, as long as he denounces those wealthy neighbors who hide their private wealth. It was not looted, and even the Huns would deal a wooden card. Usually, when the Hun soldiers encountered someone with such a card, they would not kill or loot.

Some of the dark-hearted guys began to attack their neighbors, employers, and masters. Zhao Xin doesn't engage in any ideological education, and if someone denounces him, he will be beaten. If you don't make a bow, it's a knife in the head. Pull the family to continue fighting.

Under this high pressure, in just ten days. And he copied out innumerable gold and silver vessels, and treasured goods. hugged the grass and beat the rabbit, and also captured a large number of delicate and large ladies. These young ladies are delicate and expensive on weekdays, and as soon as they entered the military camp of the Huns, they immediately became inferior to prostitutes. Let parents and relatives call for heaven and earth. But there is no way.

"Hahaha! It's still better than the second king's method, and this time the seizures are more than before. In the future, we will do this. It is much better to rob these big households than to rob the poor. Yi Zhixian admired Zhao Xin's methods and his appreciation, pointed at the mountain of wealth with a horsewhip, and laughed happily.

"This is just taking advantage of the weakness of the Han people's character, and it is not enough to worry about it." Zhao Xin was rare and modest.

"Report! Da Dan Yu was not good, and the Han people sent the general Wei Qing to lead 200,000 soldiers and horses north to Taiyuan. In addition, the original defenders of Taiyuan were 40,000 people, and they worked together to defend Taiyuan. Zhao Xin was modest, and rode a flying horse to report, which surprised the Hun ministers.

"What?" Yi Zhi gasped, he didn't expect that he had been in Ma Yi for ten days. The result was to allow the Han Dynasty reinforcements to enter Taiyuan smoothly. Facing the fortified city plus the Han army with more than 200,000 people. Even Yi Zhixi, who led all the elites of the Huns, felt a little tricky.

"Da Shan Yu, this time to be able to break through Ma Yi is already the blessing of the Kunlun God. Let's search in Mayi for another two days, loot some small county towns and leave. "When the king of Yougu Liwang heard that the Han people had gathered 200,000 troops in Taiyuan, the right and north were also heavily armed. If the Han army re-blockaded the Great Wall, it was likely that the Huns would be sealed in the Han territory.

Although the Huns were sure to break through the Great Wall and rush back, after all, that would increase casualties. Moreover, in that case a lot of booty would have to be discarded. Receiving something from your pocket and then spitting it out is worse than killing them. Years of robbery have turned them into pixiu.

"That's right, Da Danyu, the purpose of this march to survive the white disaster has been achieved. Enough food was looted, and enough effort was plundered. "The King of Equality also came out to speak.

The rambling words of the princes of the Xiongnu were nothing more than persuading Yi Zhi to take the opportunity to withdraw when he saw a good situation.

Yi Zhi sighed to himself, missing Zhongxingyue is really missing an arm. When Zhongxing Yue was around, he was always able to receive all kinds of information about the Han realm. But now, 200,000 Han troops have walked out of Guanzhong. It wasn't until I arrived in Taiyuan that I received the news. The current intelligence work is more than a few blocks away.

"Da Shan Yu, anyway, all the princes said to stay in Mayi for a while. The first is to send the looted things back to the Xiongnu in batches, and the second is to divide the troops and loot the nearby cities. In this case, the subordinates ask for their lives. Do you want your subordinates to lead your subordinates to attack Taiyuan tentatively.

If the Han army is strong, we won't be able to please us. Naturally, they let them go, looted and returned to the grassland. If the Han army is vulnerable, his subordinates think that this is an opportunity. We can kill these 200,000 Han troops in Taiyuan. After that, he knocked on Hangu.

Chang'an dispatched 200,000 people out at once, presumably Chang'an must be very empty at this time. Doesn't Da Shan Yu want to live in the Weiyang Palace and enjoy the three thousand beauties of the Weiyang Palace? ”

Just when Yi Zhixian was about to make up his mind, Zhao Xin jumped out again. His plan was suffocatingly bold, with just 20,000 men under his command. Dare to challenge the Han army ten times its size? Good knock on Hangu and attack Chang'an. The princes of the Huns felt that his words were no different from their dreams. Even Yi Zhixie felt unreliable.

Zhao Xin said this not because he was confident, but because he understood the military system of the Han army. In fact, he didn't want to use his more than 20,000 horses to fight more than 200,000 Han troops. The reason why he said this was purely for the sake of fruit.

His 20,000 soldiers and horses have no problem eating thousands of Han troops, as long as he finds a weak Han army and eats them in one fell swoop. His own merits will be greater than Amu's, and he will return to the grassland to reward his merits. He can naturally hold the beauty. (To be continued......)
