Chapter 752: Hot Pursuit

In fact, give up Gu Shot Mountain, Qi Wannian is also 10,000 reluctance, dominating the north for so many years, maybe there are gains and losses in other places, but Gu Shot Mountain as the nest of the Di people, but has always been as stable as a rock, whether it is the Huns or the Xianbei people, although they have coveted Gu Shot Mountain, trying to get involved in this fertile land, but without exception failed, Di people with a solid defense, tell the surrounding Qianghu, Gu Shot Mountain is the sacred and inviolable territory of the Di people, any attempt to covet Gu Shot Mountain is wishful thinking.

But once, Qi Wannian deeply felt the existence of the crisis, the barrier of Gushu Mountain was broken by the Shu army in one day and one night, this is simply an incredible thing, this thing can only prove one point, that is, the Shu army is strong, powerful to the point of being unmatched, whether it is the once powerful Huns or the Xianbei people who rose later, they can not threaten the status of the Di people, and fighting with such a powerful and terrible opponent, Qi Wannian felt fear for the first time.

The strength of the Shu army is completely crushing, once it is fought, he will not give you any chance, although Qi Wannian is heartbroken, but he knows better that if he keeps it alone, he can only die here, and there will definitely be no more chances.

Thirty-six plans to go for the upper plan, if you can fight, you can fight, if you can't run, this has become a habit of Qi Wannian, since Gu Sheshan can't hold it, then don't keep it, the world is big, are you afraid that there is no place to stay?

The direction of Qi Wannian's escape, chose in the north of Gushu Mountain, Diaoyin, Dingyang, Gaonu area, this area, in the Eastern Han Dynasty was subordinate to the county of Bingzhou, but from the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty to the reign of Cao Wei, this area has been reduced to the world of Qianghu, and the dominance of the Han people has never reached here.

Shangjun is sparsely populated, there are constant disputes between Qiang and Hu, large areas of fields and pastures are barren, and it is difficult to find cooking smoke within a hundred miles.

The Hu people are different from the Han people, they are used to surviving in the harsh environment outside the Saiwai, as long as there is water and grass, they can survive, the Hu people not only have to compete with the Han people, but also with other Hu people, fighting for territory, resources, population, winning and losing battles are actually commonplace, they firmly believe in a belief, that is, as long as they can live, there will always be hope.

Qi Wannian didn't believe that Liu Yin would chase after him, the harsh environment and long supply lines were absolutely fatal to the Shu army, Qi Wannian didn't have to fight with the Shu army, as long as he went around in circles with the Shu army in this vast field, and played a dozen mushroom tactics, dragging them to death.

After the Shu army retreated, he Qi Wannian could continue to be the king and hegemon in this land, slow down the vitality for a few years, and still pack up his troops and go to Guanzhong, as long as he Qi Wannian lived, it would always be Liu Yin's nightmare.

But Qi Wannian still underestimated Liu Yin's determination, and after two or three months of entrenchment in Gushu Mountain, Liu Yin led the army to continue to advance northward, and continued to chase and attack Qi Wannian's troops in the area of Gaonu and Diaoyin.

In the past two or three months, Liu Yin has been raising grain and grass, the soldiers and horses have not moved, the grain and grass go first, if you want to completely destroy the people, you must not give up this opportunity, now is the weakest time for Qi Wannian, as long as the Shu army is vigorous, it should not be too much of a problem to annihilate it.

Although there are a lot of remnants of the Di people who have fled to the Gaonu area, the women, children, the old and weak account for a large proportion, and the real warriors are only forty or fifty thousand people at best.

In the next six months, there were almost no large-scale decisive battles, and Qi Wannian had been evading as much as possible to avoid the attacks of the Shu army.

Liu Yin also seems to be unhurried, using a steady and steady step-by-step camp strategy, step by step to encroach on Qi Wannian's living space. At the beginning of June, the Shu army regained Diaoyin, but this former county town has long been reduced to a ruined city, with broken city walls, empty cities, and only wild grasses spreading wantonly in the city.

In mid-July, the Shu army occupied Dingyang, and by the end of August, it occupied Gaonu. Continuously attacking the city and plundering the land, the Shu army is eroding the territory of the Di people step by step, Qi Wannian's policy of avoiding war has allowed the Shu army to easily capture one land after another, and when winter comes, the Di people have been compressed to the west bank of the Yellow River, and the Shu army's men and horses have been advancing in a roundabout way, like driving a flock of sheep, driving Qi Wannian's troops into a dead end.

The cold winter is coming, and the Di tribe, who have been running on the Saibei Plateau for nearly half a year, is short of food and clothing at the moment, and they are already in a predicament, and this winter will be the most difficult winter for them.

"Great Chief, we are short of food for the winter, and we have no clothes to protect us from the cold, if we don't think about it, I'm afraid we won't be able to survive this winter." The strategist Xu Fang looked at Wannian Dao with a worried face.

Qi Wannian said helplessly: "What can I do, the Shu people have been working hard to force each other, and they will never give up if they don't kill us, they have been on the run for half a year, and there is no time to raise food and grass at all. ”

Xu Fang said: "Big leader, according to the humble opinion, it is better to ask the Shu people for peace, if this battle continues to be fought, we are afraid that the Di people will really have to fight out." ”

Qi Wannian was furious and said: "I swear not to stand with Liu Yin, and it is impossible for me to surrender to the Shu people!" When Qi Wannian heard that he surrendered and sued for peace, he suddenly looked bitter and hateful.

Hao Yuandu said at this time: "The big chief, now it seems that this Hexi is already stupid, it is better to cross the Yellow River to the east and defect to the King of Han, now the King of Han is in Bingzhou, the momentum is huge, and the power has expanded to the state, Hebei, Qing, and Youshuzhou, if the big leader leads the people to cross to the east, the King of Han will be happy, and he will treat the big leader well." ”

Hao Yuandu is a Xiongnu in Hexi, and Liu Bao, the king of Han, is also a Hun person, with the same ancestor and the same root, and now Liu Bao is the king in Bingzhou, Hao Yuandu, who is also a clansman, is naturally paying close attention, and has sent someone to secretly get in touch with Liu Yuan. Now seeing that Qi Wannian could not gain a foothold in Hexi, Hao Yuandu bewitched Qi Wannian to cross the river and defect to Liu Yuan's father and son.

Qi Wannian's eyes suddenly lit up, Liu Yin forced him to have nowhere to go in Hexi, and Hao Yuandu's suggestion undoubtedly provided a new opportunity for the Di people.

"Cross the Yellow River east!" (To be continued.) )
