Zhang Ji said: "Before the lord left Xiayang, he said to me, 'When the main force of the Xiongnu on the other side is fighting the trapped beasts, please ask me to recover Shangjun for the world.'" ”

Everyone nodded, the main force of the Dreadnought Army is mostly on the opposite bank, and that side will definitely be able to defeat the main force of the Hun Army, everyone knows this.

However, Su Ze thought about it a little and understood the mystery and knew that Zhang Ji would support the plan he proposed just now.

Zhang Ji said: "Let's take a look at the current situation first."

"Shangjun is vast and sparsely populated, and our army has advanced five hundred miles to Gaonu City on the bank of Yanshui, which is only the southern part of Shangjun. On the Hukou side, more than 15,000 enemy troops were annihilated, but they only defeated the king of Zuo Yulu. There is still a big gap between the recovery of Shangjun. ”

Then think about the first half of the sentence. The battle on the east side of the river must be very fierce now, but it is estimated that it is not yet the situation of the battle of the trapped beasts, so our army does not need to rush to destroy the enemy army now. ”

Shen Long asked: "Then our army is stationed here, although the army has a lot of supplies, it is consumed like this, I always feel that there are some problems."

Zhang Ji said: "Therefore, our army can adopt Mr. Su Wenshi's strategy to start peace talks with the other side and temporarily paralyze the other side." Wait until the enemy is cornered on the other side, break the city in one fell swoop, and annihilate the enemy army! ”

Zhang Lu said happily: "Very good! In this way, the enemy troops will not be let go, and there will be no great losses. ”

Su Ze said: "In this case, when the peace talks are made, the various departments in the city can be given very lenient conditions first, and then suddenly ......."

……

On the side of the Huns, when there were many disputes in the city because of internal resources and contradictions between various departments, the army outside the city sent a team of envoys led by Xue Xia with more than ten Han and Hu mixed formations to ask for peace talks with the city.

The king of Lu on the right thought that the main force of the Xiongnu in Xihe County was strong, and there were two subordinates of the king of Shuofang in the north of Hetao, and with them to rely on, he could naturally force back the new Xiliang army. Therefore, accepting the peace talks, it is planned to use this method to delay time and wait for assistance.

After Xue Xia and other envoys entered the city, in front of the king of Lu and other Hu leaders, they said that the cause of this conflict was that the old Xiongnu royal court did not recognize Huchuquan as a single Yu, and unilaterally cut off contact and trade with the imperial court.

Right Yu Lu Wang thought to himself, "Isn't it caused by this Dong thief and Tong Yi supporting Hu Chuquan and monopolizing the trade of Zuo Feng Yi and Hedong County?" ”

It's a pity that he doesn't dare to say these words now, so he has to perfunctorily say this for some other leaders of the Huns, but he doesn't mean this.

Xue Xia continued to say that the tribes that were willing to continue to obey the Han court could have a space for development, and their future was limitless. Thinking about the fact that there are no Qiang seeds, no need to pay tribute to the grasslands, and no need to pay taxes like peasants is the result of the earliest support.

This passage penetrated into the hearts of the leaders of the various departments, and they had been exploited by all kinds of people before, whether they obeyed Chang'an or followed the Xiongnu.

In the past, they all had tribal contacts with the officials of the Han court in the Hetao, but they were not willing to try to recruit and organize households again. But although the Huns were loose, they also had to peel off a layer of skin from them.

Now, the conditions offered by Xue Xia and the others are really wonderful, no wonder many small tribes have taken refuge there.

Of course, King Lu of the Right will not be tempted, but in order to delay time, he said that he would discuss it first, and then do the work for the soldiers below. In this way, you can take refuge and not cause trouble.

Xue Xia smiled, where is the opponent of Zhang Ji and Su Ze in this Hun leader's strategy, and he is really in the middle of it.

He said that after three days, he would see the real reaction of the soldiers in the city to the incident, otherwise it would be regarded as a refusal to accept the peace talks.

The right Yu Lu Wangren had to bow his head under the eaves, and in order to prevent the Han people from attacking the city immediately, he had to swear that he would do his work seriously in the past few days.

In the following days, the Xiongnu leaders were bent on delaying and deceiving their surrender, secretly announcing the arrival of reinforcements while ordering their soldiers to temporarily show their willingness to surrender.

They also coerced and enticed the leaders of other tribes, saying that the Han army was in difficulty in supplying, and that the Xiongnu reinforcements had already been on the way, and now they only needed to delay some time through peace talks.

These leaders are also the two ends of the head and the rat, and they don't know how to choose, so they have to bet on both ends and wait and see what happens.

However, the lower strata of the other tribes had already moved the mind of surrendering, and even their subordinates began to enjoy the life of combining agriculture and animal husbandry in the future.

Xue Xia and the others, who could see the clues, did not say much, but appreciated the attitude of the defenders in the city, and promised that after surrendering, they would allocate a batch of money and food to them as a reward.

The defenders in the city were overjoyed, and this peace negotiation not only went smoothly, but also had a reward in the end, and they relaxed their vigilance even more. Of course, they couldn't have known that there was terrible news coming from the other side of the river.

On the third day, the Xinxi Liang army really took the reward of ten carts and arrived at the south gate of Gaonu City.

King Yu Lu knew that if this amount of money entered the city, he would not say anything about the Huns, but those miscellaneous Hu might really take refuge in the Xinxi Liang army.

He ordered his commanders not to directly transport the bounty into the city for the time being. The specific response will be discussed after he and other ministries have come up with the results.

After a short time, the leaders of the other tribes came together and complained about the behavior of the Xiongnu who did not take the money.

The right Yu Lu Wang said that when the Xiongnu army arrived, he could give them a large number of cattle and sheep and Han slaves as compensation. By that time, the money is not yet, how much do you want to rob, how much you want to rob?

As soon as he stabilized these leaders, he heard the earth-shattering shouts of killing from outside the city.

"Kill the Huns, receive the reward!"

"Kill the Huns, receive the reward!"

In the earth-shattering shout, a large number of Xinxi Liang troops suddenly appeared on the east and west sides, and they didn't care who the opponent on the city wall was, and directly set up centipedes to hang ladders and other tools to directly attack the city.

Yu Poison and Shen Long personally commanded 5,000 soldiers and horses, and took advantage of the fact that the other party had no intention of fighting and directly attacked the city.

The Hun soldiers on the city wall saw that the situation was not good and hurriedly resisted. However, due to insufficient preparation, it was impossible to stop the Xinxi Liang army from capturing the city.

Some Huns hurriedly asked for help, and some called for armed support from other ethnic groups.

"What are you doing standing stupidly? Come and deal with the Han people! ”

"You, and you, what are you staring at me? The enemy is out there! ”

Those miscellaneous husks looked at the Huns with their eyes, like staring at a domestic animal to be slaughtered, just waiting for the first person to take the lead to appear, and then they rushed up and killed them.

"Brothers, follow me, and get the money!"

A black, thin-bearded man who had never eaten enough a few times in his life was the first to pounce and stabbed into the heart of a Hun soldier.

"Kill the Huns! There is a bounty! ”

More miscellaneous beards and slaves swarmed up and attacked the Huns from behind. The Huns, who had limited manpower and were mainly focused on outside the city, immediately suffered heavy losses.
