Chapter Seventy-Five: Surround but Not Kill

Qiang Qu, who got a hint of use, nodded again and again when he heard this, quickly stood up, patted the dust on his body, and began to ask the kneeling Northern Huns, but unfortunately, after asking for a long time, the other party did not react at all.

"That's not what you asked, come on, let me come"

Lin Xu clapped his hands and walked down the lobby

"Tell him that Shan Yu of the Northern Xiongnu ran away, and the Tibetan capital Noze went"

"This~~"

Qiang Qu was stunned when he heard this, he didn't ask about other people's news, but he leaked it first.

"It's okay, ask"

Lin Xu, who had been silently staring at the other party's eyes, could now be sure that the other party really didn't understand Chinese, not pretending, and suddenly felt a lot more relieved, the Northern Huns, who didn't even learn the language of their own mortal enemy, were definitely not the ones who ate with their brains, and ninety percent was a pure general, so it would be easy to do, try to fool around.

Sure enough, when he heard the news of his own Shan Yu, the other party's eyes really lit up.

"Tell him that if you want to know how many soldiers and horses there are in the Northern Xiongnu Shan Yu now, tell us his name"

Qiang Qu swallowed his saliva when he heard this, turned his head to look at Huangfu Song, and looked at Liu Hong on the main throne, seeing that none of them spoke against it, so he had to open his mouth and tell the truth.

The Northern Xiongnu general hesitated for a long time after hearing this, thinking about it, his name was really insignificant compared to Shan Yu's troops, and he just said his name, which seemed to have nothing to do with it.

"Huyan Kejiang"

Gritting his teeth, Hu Yanke still chose to make this seemingly profitable deal.

"Oh~, Huyan, it's really a big fish, yes, tell him the truth about the current strength of the Northern Xiongnu Shan Yu"

When General Hu Yanke listened to his own single and existing troops, a worried look was evident on his face.

"Tell him that the Ding Ling tribe and the Hujie tribe have rebelled against him Northern Xiongnu, and at this time they have already gathered their people to prepare to attack the Northern Xiongnu in his base camp in the Western Regions. Don't be wrong, you can't get a word wrong! ”

Qiang Qu cautiously glanced at Huangfu Song and the others who were silent, and obediently said truthfully, anyway, this fairy asked him to say it, and if something happened, it should have nothing to do with him.

"Disdainful?"

Lin Xu touched his chin,

"It seems that the strength left by the Northern Xiongnu in the Western Regions is not weak, according to the remaining forces of the Ding Ling and Hujie tribes, the Northern Xiongnu should still have 20,000 to 30,000 horses in the Western Regions."

"Continue to tell him, don't think about running away, Anxi and Rome have been bought by my Han with thirty carts of silk, a head of the Northern Huns, and ten additional horses of fine silk, once you remnants of the army go out of the Western Regions, you will be waiting to be strangled by the two empires, and it is impossible to run."

After hearing this, Hu Yanke glared at Lin Xu with an angry face, struggling violently, but was held down by two armor soldiers.

Others did not know the attraction of silk to those nobles who rested and fell from their horses, but he knew very well that the price was better than gold! And the supply exceeds demand, if the Han family really uses silk to exchange the head of his Northern Xiongnu, with the current situation of his Northern Xiongnu, it is not impossible for those nobles to secretly kill him, but it is quite possible,

"Na, it seems that the Northern Xiongnu are indeed going to move, and the number of troops is about 20,000 to 30,000."

After getting the news he wanted to know, Lin Xu turned around and walked back to his seat, and began to smoke tea with hot soup.

"Immortal, really clever, the old man admires, admires"

Huangfu Song smiled and bowed to Lin Xu, although some of what Lin Xu told Hu Yan Kejiang was confidential, but did it matter? Not at all, Hu Yanke will tell a prisoner, even if he tells him the big secret, as long as the person can't escape, it can't be leaked, and the big deal is to chop it up immediately with a knife, nothing happens.

"Your Majesty, since the situation is clear, for the Northern Xiongnu Shan Yu, it is better for me to wait for the siege and not kill, first stabilize the Northern Xiongnu Department far away in the Western Regions, wait for the road of the Immortal Lord to be repaired, and then slaughter it in one fell swoop!"

Huangfu Song stepped out and bowed to Liu Hong

"But, if you go out on a business trip again this time..."

"The old man is here to see you!"

Seeing Liu Hong leaving, Huangfu Song breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately, there was no danger, the crisis was temporarily over, the official was not lost, the knight was not cut, and everything was stable

"Congratulations, congratulations, congratulations to General Huangfu Song for surviving the catastrophe"

Lin Xu leaned over with a smile on his face.

"It's all up to Lord Qixian to help, the old man is grateful."

"Don't talk nonsense, I'll discuss with you on business"

"Oh, the fairy commands"

"Since General Huangfu is still the main general, after ordering people to surround Du Noze, let the rest of the army go to catch miscellaneous beards for me, as many as you want, young and old, as long as you are young and strong."

"This~, such a big thing, you have to nod your majesty."

This kind of thing of catching young and strong Emperor Fu Song doesn't dare to mess around, there are many young and strong, and you can become a miscellaneous soldier with good training, this kind of terrible thing, without Liu Hong, the emperor's nod, he won't touch it. Especially after the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Liu Hong was very sensitive to the situation of large-scale gathering of people, and if he was not careful, he would cause a big disaster.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I'll go and say that these people will also be used to build roads, and the Southern Huns will also be recruited to be overseers, otherwise, you will go to protect the Qiang Canal when I am idle?"

How to say that the Southern Xiongnu is also a branch of the Xiongnu, and it also has a certain ability to suppress these miscellaneous Hu, not to mention that this kind of work like managing slaves is not suitable for the Han people of this era to do, benevolence, righteousness, etiquette, wisdom and faith, this kind of thing can be used to educate these Hu people, but what Lin Xu wants now is that the Hu people work for him, not to naturalize him, and build a cement road from Luoyang to the Western Regions in a year, even if the quality requirements are not high, and there is the support of the emperor, it is also a very difficult task, but this is no way, According to Lin Xu's estimate, the maximum time limit that Liu Hong can tolerate now is one year, not even one more day!

Huangfu Song nodded after hearing this

"As long as Your Majesty nods, it's just a matter of covering the old man, but the old man just catches it, and the food can be prepared by the fairy himself."

In fact, the problem of catching miscellaneous hu is not big, mainly the food problem, as far as Huangfu Song estimates, the army drove over in waves, not to mention 100,000 miscellaneous hus, 670,000 is no problem at all, after all, they are catching, but not the kind of greeting with the Northern Huns, a large number of miscellaneous hus automatically come to vote, and the army surrounds them, and none of them can run.

"First give the general a thorough understanding, and I will also ask Your Majesty to order the arrest of Xianbei and Wuheng people, as well as a large number of yellow scarves that are about to be collected, as soon as the annual meeting is over this year, my Han will work in a big way, and at that time, General Huangfu will have to prepare early."

Huangfu Song narrowed his eyes when he heard this, and after a while, the two looked at each other and smiled slightly, knowing in their hearts.

In the following period of time, the two were temporarily allied, Lin Xu tried his best to ensure Huangfu Song's leadership position in the army in front of Liu Hong, and Huangfu Song needed to provide strength support for Lin Xu's series of plans, the first of which was the capture of Zahu.

Northern

"Big brother, I just heard a report from Tanqi, saying that I saw a miscellaneous beard entering Tsunoze."

"How many?"

"About 2,000 more"

Liu Bei, who was sitting on the main seat, frowned slightly after hearing this, this is not quite right, all the way down, they have not encountered Zahu, but all those who saw them turned around and fled south, entering the capital of Noze, and it was still two thousand people, which was a bit weird, obviously trying to avoid their huge Han army.

To the north?

Liu Bei was puzzled in his heart, now the Zahu in the south is dominated by Qianghu, and the territory of Qianghu is in the west of the south, and the only people who need to go north are Xianbei people, Xianbei remnants of 2,000 people? Can the Northern Xiongnu let Xianbei, who has 2,000 men and horses, leave? If it is really a deserter, then there is no need to waste a lot of manpower and material resources to besiege and strangle, but if it is an important person, such as the Northern Huns, then if he lets go, the road of this life will be equal to the end.

"Newspaper~~"

Just as Liu Bei was hesitating, an anxious roar suddenly came from outside the account

"Report to the general, the messenger of the general Huangfu asks to see!"

"Pass in!"

Soon, an armored scribe with blood on his body opened the tent

"Old man Yan Zhong, I've seen General Liu"

Yan Zhong took the lead in bowing

"It turned out to be Yan Gong, polite"

Liu Bei had naturally heard of Yan Zhong's name, and he didn't dare to be rude at the moment

"Yan Gong is in such a hurry, but there is an urgent military situation?"

"Not bad!"

Yan Zhong took the tea handed over by the attendant and drank it all.

"Your Majesty has an order, ordering the general to surround Tsunozawa, and not to let anyone out of Ze"

Liu Bei's eyes flashed after hearing this

"Today, there are scouts to report, and about 2,000 horses have entered Tonozawa, isn't it~"

"Hahaha, it's the Northern Hun Shan Yu!"

Yan Zhong laughed heartily, thinking about it, the Northern Xiongnu led a large army to attack him Liangzhou, but he was killed and lost his armor, and now there are only 2,000 horsemen left to escape, which is much cooler than attacking the Yellow Turban.

"In this case, my side will organize troops to enter the capital and kill the Northern Hun Shan Yu!"

Liu Bei was also happy in his heart, a good thing, the Northern Huns Shan Yu actually bumped into his arms, the sky has a great achievement, I didn't say it, let Zhang Fei enter Ze immediately, and I must get the head of the Northern Hun Shan Yu before the others!

"No, Your Majesty has an order, surround but not kill, and don't even let him die"

Yan Zhong looked at Liu Bei with a happy face and couldn't help but laugh in his heart, this kind of great achievement really has to be said, which round to get him Liu Bei, he worked hard all night to attack, didn't he just want to snatch the head of the Northern Xiongnu Shan Yu? If he hadn't received the news from the herald halfway, he would have rushed directly into Tsunozawa.

"Why is that?"

Liu Bei was very puzzled, this was all sent to his mouth, it would be a pity not to bite it, and both sides were a hundred years of blood feud, what else was there to talk about, just talk about it with a knife.

"This old man is also very puzzled, but His Majesty has a strict order, the Northern Huns are alone, and they cannot die."

Liu Bei asked, sighed heavily, no way, Liu Hong opened his mouth, and if he wanted to kill him, he had to endure it.

"Yan Gong has been running all the way, he must have been exhausted, why don't you take a rest in the big tent prepared?"

didn't have to cut down the Northern Huns Shan Yu, Liu Bei naturally turned the target to Yan Zhong, according to his eyes, this blood-stained celebrity is not simple, he can be civil and martial, if he can leave it to assist him, it is also a great thing.

"How dare the old man brazenly occupy General Liu's big tent, this matter is inappropriate, please ask the general to rest in the old man's resting place at will."

Yan Zhong naturally didn't dare to occupy Liu Bei's residence like this, so he resigned again and again. No matter what Liu Bei said, he is also the master of the army, he has a heavy army, and he is a member of the royal family, and his future is limitless, no matter how stupid he is, he will not be so reckless.

"Yan Gong is a famous man in the world, if he can rest in the main tent of Beibei, it is a blessing for Bei, if he can give one or two pointers, he is grateful"

After that, Liu Bei did not hesitate to bow down and make a big salute.

Yan Zhong smiled bitterly and turned sideways, stretched out his hand to help Liu Bei up, and then was grabbed by the other party's wrist and welcomed into the inner room. Soon, a large amount of meat was served, and even Zhang Fei was called over to accompany him.

As for the tiring and unprofitable work of besieging Du Yeze, it was naturally handed over to Xiahou Yuan and Sun Jian.
