Chapter 1008: Wordless Anger
The Qiang people, who had a population of only one million, and 200,000 strong men were killed outside Wuwei City. For the Qiang people, it is tantamount to a catastrophe.
How could 800,000 old and weak men and women resist the attack of 40,000 cavalry?
What's more, there are 100,000 foot soldiers behind him.
Under the slaughter of these 140,000 horse infantry troops, except for a few Qiang who fled, most of them were captured. Regardless of the old or weak, as long as it is a man, he will be killed on the spot.
The women's side is left young and young. In total, 230,000 women remained.
This part of the women, Kou Feng is planning to reward the soldiers who guard Xiliang.
With these 230,000 women, in twenty years, it will be enough to increase the population by a million. That's a lot of money.
In addition to this wealth, the influence of the Qiang tribe of the Great Chu expedition to the west and the destruction of the Qiang people, which is a very powerful country in the Western Regions, is also spread among the countries of the Western Regions.
140,000 horse infantry troops. After this battle, among the countries of the Western Regions, no one looked at Chu again.
The state of Chu was taken seriously, the scourge of the Qiang people was eliminated, and 230,000 women were obtained.
Yes, the entire Chu army returned to Wuwei from Qiang with a jubilant atmosphere.
"Your Majesty, the last general feels that it is a pity to only lay down Qiangzhong." On the way, Zhao Yun said to Kou Feng.
"It's a pity, it's a pity that the wind and rain are good on that side, and there are a lot of grasslands. Such a good place to live will attract many nationalities to enter. Today we have exterminated the Qiang people, and another people will come in the future, which is very troublesome. And the only solution to this problem is for us to completely occupy that land. Kou Feng said.
"Then why did Your Majesty choose to retreat?"
Zhao Yun was puzzled.
"Lone plans to leave Zilong in Xiliang, as well as generals such as Yan Xing, Ma Chao, and Pang De, to guard it. And sent a capable assassin to build a city in the Qiang, and first moved a part of the people over. As for the other large-scale migration, it will be twenty years later. Kou Feng said.
"Twenty years later?"
Zhao Yun was still puzzled.
"It was until these 230,000 women gave birth to a million people. The mother of this population is the Qiang people, and the rest of the population will be able to adapt to the grassland. Twenty years later, the current group of soldiers is also old, and the old soldiers will migrate into Qiangzhong with their children. After that, the cities in Qiangzhong were everywhere, and we Han people could also make a living by herding. Kou Feng laughed and came up with his plan.
It's good, but it's actually still a problem. After the great turmoil at the end of the Han Dynasty, the population of the Han people decreased sharply. It's hard to even enrich your own country, let alone Qiangzhong.
This is a kind of helplessness, Kou Feng can only wait for twenty years before expanding.
After listening to Kou Feng's explanation, Zhao Yun couldn't help but nodded.
Overall, though, the harvest was still great, and the expansion plan was extended into twenty years later. As long as he is sealed for one day, the state of Chu will continue to expand.
Occupy the land that should be occupied, and spread around the Central Plains.
At that moment, a burst of mournful music sounded.
Kou Feng had never heard this kind of music, and he didn't know what instrument it was played on.
"Let's see who's playing."
Kou Feng was curious and ordered.
The guard answered and immediately went to investigate, and soon after, brought an old man with him.
This old man is a Han Chinese, about fifty years old, with an ordinary appearance, not very bold, and when he looks at Kou Feng, he looks very worried.
"I don't know what the musical instrument in my husband's hand is? What is the music played? Why so much grievance? Kou Feng lowered his head and looked at the musical instrument in the old man's hand, unable to understand, and couldn't help asking.
"Qi Qi Tianzi, this is Hu Ji. The piece of music played has no name, but the piece was made by Mrs. Cai. The old man said.
"Mrs. Cai?" Kou Feng is unknown.
"It's the daughter of the late Confucian Cai Bao, who is now in the Huns, Cai Yan." The old man said.
Kou Feng's gaze froze, and an indescribable feeling came to his heart.
He remembered Cai Yan, and remembered that she was taken away by the Huns in history, and spent more than ten years in the Xiongnu gathering places in the Hetao area, until Cao Cao became the prime minister and ransomed Cai Yan with his daughter.
Now, he should indeed be happy that he has gone out to conquer and captured the women of other races. But I don't know how many Han women suffered in the Xiongnu.
Cai Yan, Wen Ji.
How can the talented woman of the Han Dynasty be in the Huns. Are you kidding.
There was an unspeakable anger in Kou Feng's heart.
"Come, give ten gold." Kou Feng first ordered.
Wei Ying promised, took out ten gold, gave it to the old man, and then left with the old man.
"Lone doesn't want to go back to Wuwei, and plans to take advantage of the situation to go north and destroy the Huns. What do you think? Kou Feng raised his head and glanced at Zhao Yun and said.
Zhao Yun didn't know why Kou Feng was so impulsive, but His Majesty had an order, how could he not obey? In addition, Zhao Yun himself is also full of hatred for the Huns.
When this group of people was in the Western Han Dynasty, they dealt a big blow to the Han people. In the end, it was divided into two parts, one part went to Mobei, and the other part surrendered to the Zihan people.
The part that went to Mobei has now been fresh. People annexed. The Southern Xiongnu, who surrendered to the Han Chinese, took root in the Hetao area. Qi Ting was gasping.
However, although he was still breathing, he did not change his nature, and went south several times to capture the Han people. Zhao Yun swore early on that if he had the opportunity to be a general and hold great power, he would definitely destroy this foreign clan.
Yun gritted his teeth and promised.
"Let's go, the cavalry is going north." Seeing this, Kou Feng ordered.
"No."
The generals beside him answered the promise and passed Kou Feng's order, and the 140,000 horse infantry army was divided into two parts, of which 100,000 infantry soldiers returned triumphantly with the women, and 40,000 troops rushed north to the grassland.
Kou Feng's wordless anger must be vented, and the Huns must be destroyed.
The Loop.
The fresh grass is fertile, and it is very suitable for the grassland peoples to live, and it was also the territory of the Xiongnu people in the past. But since Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, it has become the territory of the Han people.
In the Hetao, there are several counties such as Yunzhong. However, since the collapse of the Han dynasty, this place has become a place where the Southern Xiongnu are rampant.
Locally, the Huns were one rank higher than the Han Chinese.
At this moment, in the court of the Huns.
Shan Yu of the Xiongnu, King Xian of Zuo, and a large number of Xiongnu nobles were discussing Cao Cao's invitation to go south.
This generation of Xiongnu Shan Yu is called Hu Li, forty years old, a little ambitious.
"Our Huns are not as good as before, and we are just breathing. If it continues like this, it is estimated that it will not be far from the extinction of the clan. Now that the Han people themselves are in turmoil, we should take advantage of the situation. Not only to go south, but also to have ambition to become stronger. Hu Li stretched out his arms and said.
"Da Dan Yu is right, not only to go south, but also to have the ambition to destroy the Han people." "Yes, yes. That's exactly how it should be.
"It's time to restore the prestige of the ancestors of the Great Huns."
Generals, nobles said accordingly.
The morale is high, and the prestige of the ancestors must be restored.
But just then, a guard rushed through the door. shouted: "Da Danyu, I found a cavalry coming straight towards the royal court. "What? Is it a Xianbei person? "Yadan Yu Hu Li and a group of Xiongnu generals, the nobles changed color in unison, and said.
It is to restore the prestige of the ancestors of the Great Huns, but at this moment the Huns are actually really out of breath, the grassland has long belonged to the Xianbei people, and they are most afraid of the Xianbei people.
"No, it's the army of Chu."
The guard shook his head.
"Chu State, is it the Chu State that Cao Cao invited us to go south to deal with together?" Hu Li wondered.
"Probably."
The guard replied.
"How many are there?" After knowing the answer, Hu Li was a little contemptuous. I heard that it was a big country in the south, and how many cavalry were there.
"According to the report of the spies, a total of 40,000 cavalry, capable of making a run. Along the way, several of our people were killed, not only men taller than the wheels were killed, but even the infant men were also killed, and no one was spared. The guard's face was ugly.
"What?" Hu Li's complexion has really changed greatly this time, and the 40,000 army, all of which can use rushing shots, can't scare Hu Li.
Although the Xiongnu were out of breath, there were still 80,000 cavalry, and the people on horseback were the most basic skills. But it's not just the children who have been on the wheels that have to be killed, even the infants.
Is this aimed at cutting off their Hun roots? Hu Li thought that he was a ruthless person, but he didn't expect to meet a more powerful character this time.
However, in the end, he was still angry, and Hu Li finally laughed angrily: "Is it true that our Huns are soft persimmons? Before we go south, we will destroy this cavalry of the Chu State. ”
"No."
The nobles in the big tent, the generals made a loud promise. Immediately, the morale was high and he walked out of the big tent of the Chinese army.
Soon after, an army of 80,000 was dispatched in unison.
Eighty thousand cavalry met the cavalry of the Chu State thirty miles west of the royal court.
At this moment, Kou Feng was protected by Kou Shui inside the cavalry, surrounded by strong guards. At this time, it was already half a month after the Chu army was rerouted to the north, and after half a month of galloping, they finally arrived at the royal court of the Xiongnu.
Along the way, as the Xiongnu spies inquired, they did destroy part of the Xiongnu tribes. For Kou Fenglai, it's just a dish to vent anger.
The real main course is ahead, the last part of the power of the Xiongnu, the royal court of the Southern Xiongnu.
"Back then, Wei Qing, Huo Qubing and other Han generals went out of the customs and defeated the Huns. Let them go far away from the desert north, but they left this scourge behind. Today, we will eradicate this last scourge, and scratch the last stop for Wei Qing and Huo Quai's unfinished career. Kill. ”
Kou Feng yelled in the grass.
"Kill."
The 40,000 cavalry let out a loud roar and rushed forward.
At this moment, the 80,000 Hun cavalry led by Hu Li appeared not far away. For this war, Hu Li is also determined.
Not surprisingly, both sides chose to charge and kill each other.!! @
