366 Different surnames are kings

Along the way, with Tian Chou as the guide, Zhang Yan and the others quickly drove out of the hundreds of miles of uninhabited area outside Lulongsai, but Rao was like this, but it also took two days.

After all, the road is far, and both men and horses need to rest well.

It was getting closer and closer to Wuhuan's station, and Zhang Yan and the others were getting more and more excited, everyone was gearing up, secretly holding back their strength, preparing to carry out a devastating blow to the Wuhuan people.

Tian Chou took Zhang Yan and others all the way to the vicinity of Yangle City in Liaoxi County, which is where Wuhuan Shan Yu Dun is located, Zhang Yan commanded the cavalry to attack in several ways, basically showing a trend of encirclement, and suddenly launched an attack on the Wuhuan people near Yangle City.

The Wuhuan people suffered a sudden change, and suddenly became a mess, and tens of thousands of cavalry couldn't help but say, killing people when they saw them. The Wuhuan people fought hard, but the disparity in strength was huge, like moths to a fire, which did not play a role at all, but angered the attacking cavalry.

Several cavalry took the momentum of encirclement, and nearly 100,000 Wuhuan people near Yangle City were all killed by these cavalry, from morning to night, blood soaked through battle armor, blood flowed like a river, corpses were everywhere, and 100,000 Wuhuan herdsmen were tragically destroyed.

That night, Zhang Yan and others piled up all the corpses of the 100,000 Wuhuan herdsmen near Yangle City, set them on fire, billowing smoke rose into the sky, and the raging fire lasted for a long time, and the belongings of the Wuhuan people, cattle and sheep were looted by the army.

In order to celebrate the victory, Zhang Yan and others slaughtered cattle and sheep, and held a bonfire party in Yangle City to celebrate the success of the war.

The Wuhuan people have lost a large number of young adults, and now they are like lambs to the slaughter, when Zhang Yan came. I heard Tian Yu and Tian Chou talk about the serious persecution brought by the Wuhuan people to the Han Dynasty. The first little kindness is gone.

Now. Some just kill.

Zhang Yan's purpose is very simple, take advantage of this opportunity for the Huns to join the army and completely destroy the Wuhuan nation! And take the opportunity to weaken the military liliang of the Huns.

Since the establishment of the Qin Dynasty, the nomads in the north have posed a huge threat to the Han people in the Central Plains for thousands of years.

Xiongnu, Wuhuan, Xianbei, Qiang, Qian, Di. And later, the Rouran, Turkic, Uighur, Khitan, Jurchen, Mongolian, etc., in the northern steppe of the Chinese land, a group of nomadic people were active for a while, and they all caused great trouble to the Central Plains.

That is, to appease the obedient peoples and strike at the disobedient peoples. When necessary, extermination may be employed.

Compared with the Xiongnu and Xianbei. The population of Wuhuan is the smallest, and the place where Wuhuan is located is in the northeast of the Han Dynasty. In the northeast, in addition to Wuhuan, there are also Buyeo, Goguryeo, Dongwofu, Rulou, Haonan, Chenhan, Mahan, Mouhan and other ethnic groups living at the same time, it can be said that this part of the northeast is a mixed place of ethnic minorities, among them, the military strength of Wuhuan and Goguryeo is the strongest.

Zhang Yan wants to destroy Wuhuan, which is nothing more than knocking on the mountain and shaking the tiger, and the land in the northeast is also quite fertile land, if it can be developed, it will inevitably become a new granary of the world.

In the future, Zhang Yan is also preparing to migrate a large number of Han people to live in the Northeast, and he must do a good job of the prerequisites to eliminate the threat of some nearby ethnic groups, so that he can effectively immigrate.

In addition to the fertile land, there are rich mineral resources such as coal, iron, and gold deep under the ground in the Northeast, which are enough for Zhang Yan to change this era in this life.

Therefore, the sacrifice of the Wuhuan people, in Zhang Yan's opinion, is worth it.

The next day, Zhang Yan gathered all his troops and, under the leadership of Tian Chou, headed to Changli, which was another large gathering place for the Wuhuan people.

The Wuhuan people in Liaoxi were killed, and the news had reached Changli, and at this moment, the Wuhuan people in Changli were hurriedly packing up and preparing to go out to hide.

However, what the Wuhuan people didn't expect was that Zhang Yan and others came so quickly, and tens of thousands of troops came in a mighty way, like the autumn wind sweeping away the leaves, directly sweeping the hundreds of thousands of Wuhuan people in the Changli area.

For a while, it was another killing without suspense, but this time Zhang Yan failed to complete the encirclement, many Wuhuan people rode fast horses and fled from east to west, although Zhang Yan led the army to pursue, but only killed tens of thousands of Wuhuan people, and the rest of the about 100,000 Wuhuan people scattered like birds and beasts.

At this time, from the northeast to kill a force of soldiers and horses, the leader of the army is the Liaodong Hou Gongsun Du's son Gongsun Kang, Gongsun Kang led thousands of cavalry to support, just to the east fled the Wuhuan people, so a burst of killing, and the Han army before and after, these fleeing to the east of the Wuhuan people to kill all of them.

On the contrary, the group of Wuhuan people who fled west escaped by luck, and Zhang Yan couldn't catch up, so let it go. Anyway, the Wuhuan people have already suffered a catastrophe, and the remaining nearly 100,000 people can't make any big waves, because they are all old, weak, women and children. However, whether this group of people can escape depends on their creation, because, behind Zhang Yan, Yan Rou is still rushing here with tens of thousands of infantry, in case they meet, it can only be said that the Wuhuan people have such a catastrophe.

Regardless of these things, Zhang Yan after this battle, it can be regarded as a complete heavy blow to the Wuhuan people, and the two places where the Wuhuan gathered were looted by Zhang Yan and others, among which the Huns benefited the most, of course, the Huns who lost the most troops.

After this heavy blow, the shili of the Wuhuan people has basically disappeared, and after that, they can only live a life on the grassland for a while.

Zhang Yan saw Gongsun Kang again in Changli, first praised Gongsun Kang, and then asked about Gongsun Du's situation.

Gongsun Kang said that Gongsun Du's physical condition is not optimistic now, and his condition is worsening.

Zhang Yan then asked Gongsun Kang to go back and told Gongsun Du that there was a famous doctor in the court and asked Gongsun Du to go to Pengcheng for treatment.

Gongsun Kang was very happy, and immediately bid farewell to Zhang Yan and led his troops back to Liaodong.

After Gongsun Kang left, Zhang Yan gathered the generals to rest here, on the one hand, waiting for the arrival of Yan Rou's army, and on the other hand, sending envoys to convey the envoys of the Han Dynasty to the various ethnic minorities in the northeast, so that they could feel the power of the Han Dynasty, and stipulated that envoys must be sent to meet the Son of Heaven every year.

Seven days later, Yan Rou led a large army to Changli, many of whom were captured by the Wuhuan people.

Yan Rou reported the situation on the road to Zhang Yan, and they met the Wuhuan people who were defeated by Zhang Yan, killing more than 20,000 people, and all the rest were captured.

The Wuhuan people fled back and forth, but they still couldn't fly out of the palm of the Han army, walked around, and came back again.

This time, Zhang Yan did not kill the Wuhuan people, and seeing those old and weak women and children who were powerless, Zhang Yan moved a little mercy.

Besides, even if you kill all these Wuhuan people, maybe someone else will replace them in the future.

Therefore, Zhang Yan wants to use both grace and power.

Therefore, Zhang Yan named Yan Rou as the general of Anbei, protected the captain of Wuhuan, and led the army to stay in Changli, properly resettled these remaining tens of thousands of Wuhuan people, taught them to engage in farming, silkworms, etc., and changed their nomadic ways.

In addition, Zhang Yan asked the Huns such as Huchuquan and Qubei to return 30,000 war horses of the Wuhuan people, all of which were handed over to Yan Rou for jurisdiction.

In addition, Zhang Yan also abolished the subject state of Liaodong, established Changli County here, and divided the original Liaoxi County into two, and the places west of Jieshi were all incorporated into Changli County, and the east of Jieshi also belonged to Liaoxi County.

After a few days, the envoys sent by Zhang Yan came back, and all the ethnic groups in Dongyi expressed their awe of the Han Dynasty, and in accordance with Zhang Yan's advice, on the fifteenth day of August every year, they sent envoys to the capital of the Han Dynasty to meet the Son of Heaven, and also offered tribute.

After solving the Wuhuan matter, it can be regarded as relieving a border trouble for Youzhou. Zhang Yan was officially a class teacher, but he left Yan Rou in Changli County, and served as the Taishou of Changli, Tian Chou as the Taishou of Liaoxi, Tian Yu as the Taishou of Yuyang, Yan Rou's brother Yan Zhi as the Taishou of Youbeiping, Gao Ran as the Taishou of Shanggu, Zhang He as the Taishou of Daijun, and Jia Xu as the pastor of Youzhou, with full responsibility for the affairs of Youzhou.

Hu Chuquan, Qubei and others also made a lot of contributions because they followed Zhang Yan to pacify the Xianbei people and Wuhuan people, and Zhang Yan asked Hu Chuquan and Qubei to follow him back to Pengcheng to meet the Son of Heaven, and gave them a reward.

Hu Chuquan and Qubei were very happy, and they dismissed their subordinates with a frart line, and then followed Zhang Yan back to Pengcheng.

After a few months of war, Zhang Yan finally pacified Hebei, couldn't help but pacify Hebei, and also hit the Xianbei and Wuhuan minorities hard, which made the Xiongnu nation afraid of the Han, the Han in the hands of Zhang Yan, gradually exuded the dazzling light of the past, Zhang Yan's line outside the Saiwai, but also the earthquake grassland, Dongyi, so far, the number of Xianbei people have been slumped for many years, and all ethnic groups in Dongyi are frightened.

In the summer of the fifth year of Jian'an, in August, Zhang Yan led the triumphant division and returned to Pengcheng, and the ministers came to greet him, and even the emperor Liu Feng, who was less than one year old, was held by the queen mother to greet Zhang Yan's triumph, and the people of Pengcheng welcomed him even more.

The regent Zhang Yan's meritorious service was outstanding, and the ministers asked the queen mother to add Zhang Yan Jiuxi, and the queen mother then issued a decree to give the regent Zhang Yan Jiuxi, and took the Yan land that Zhang Yan had just pacified as his feudal state, and formally established the Yan country, called the king of Yan.

Before this, Zhang Yan was only regent as a king, and did not form a feudal state, and in terms of title, he was still a marquis. After returning from this northern expedition, Zhang Yan's prestige reached an unprecedented level, and the voice of the ministers was extremely high, and the title of Duke was no longer enough to show his merits, so he made Zhang Yan the king.

The Han Dynasty does not have a different surname, this is the ancestral training, but to this day, the court of the Han Dynasty has been maintained by Zhang Yan, and the Han Dynasty exists in name only, and the power is in the hands of Zhang Yan.

Zhang Yan, on the other hand, continued to be regent as the king of Yan and issued an edict to the world...... (To be continued......)
