Chen Mo's northern expedition is not a secret in the Han Dynasty, but no one thought that the war would end so quickly, from Chen Mo's dispatch to the present, it is only four months to fight and win, and victory is inevitable.

But no one would have thought that the Karasuma people would be defeated so quickly and completely, and Chen Mo would do it so desperately.

Throughout Chen Mo's half of his life, although he killed a lot of enemies, he never used his hands on the people, even those who rejected Chen Mo could not deny that Chen Mo had a heart of love for the people, but this time he conquered Karasuma, Chen Mo was a rare butcher's knife, the soldiers passed, the Karasuma people were almost extinct, Liucheng became an empty city, the royal court was destroyed, and more importantly, the massacre outside Lulongzhai, 100,000 Karasuma was poured out of Chen Mo in less than half an hour and died.

Regardless of identity, whether innocent or not, 100,000 people were drowned by Chen Mo in a very short period of time, this is absolutely subversive, the Central Plains is not that no one has slaughtered the city, Cao Cao has slaughtered, but it is also known as the slaughter of the city, there are very few such really desperate massacres, Chen Mo, who has always been known as loving the people, has done it.

But looking at the north, especially the land of Youji and Sanzhou, almost everyone is happy, and it has not been too stable Youzhou, after this war, the people's hearts are attached, and all the people support it.

This kind of invasion is not a large-scale organization, but a tribe as a unit to the south, for the winter food and warm materials, the current Karasuma, the former Xianbei, the Xiongnu, will focus on the Han people.

And this southern invasion of Karasuma, the harm to the people of Yuyang and Liaoxi is even more incomprehensible to the Han people in the Central Plains, the people of Youzhou who died directly or indirectly at the hands of the Karasuma people are by no means less than the Karasuma people who died in the war this time, even if Chen Mo finally slaughtered 100,000 in Lulongzhai in one go, it is not comparable.

There will be many unknown people in the south who criticize Chen Mo, and the brutality in his nature is undoubtedly revealed in this battle, but in the north, even if it is a person who looks at Chen Mo unpleasantly, he has remained silent in this matter, some things, if you have not experienced it, you are not qualified to speak, and those who have experienced it will not speak with your conscience, if you really criticize Chen Mo at this time, without official action, the local people may be able to squeeze you out of a place where you have no foothold, even if it is a family.

Most of the time the people's will is actually useless, because it can be guided, but when the people's will is exerted in one place, it is much more terrifying.

And this massacre, no matter how the Central Plains people evaluate, but for the border areas, the benefit is not only as simple as the lack of Karasuma, but also a direct deterrence of the surrounding aliens, the Xianbei people dare not easily knock on the side, the traders who come and go to the grassland can clearly feel that those barbaric and vulgar Xianbei people have a much more friendly attitude towards the Han people, not to mention how friendly, but at least they will not embarrass them at will, let alone kill people for no reason.

This also indirectly promoted the prosperity of trade between the Han Dynasty and the grassland.

"It's a pity~" Suiyang, the government office, Cheng Yu shook his head and sighed: "This time Chen Mo's northern expedition ended too quickly, and we have no chance at all." ”

Cao Cao has been recuperating in the past few years, is preparing to prepare for the next battle with Chen Mo, to decide the position of the northern overlord, Chen Mo's northern expedition, originally an excellent opportunity, but Chen Mo from the decision to go north to attack Karasuma and then to triumph, too fast, Cao Jun's grain and grass transportation is too late, the war has ended, and Chen Mo after this battle, no matter what the folk evaluation, but the prestige is a big shock, even if it is ready now, but the fighter has disappeared, Chen Mo returned to the dynasty with the power of extermination, at this time the morale of the Guanzhong army is in full swing, if the two sides go to war, They are bound to suffer.

"yes, that's a pity." Guo Jia sighed, shook his head and said: "After this battle, the pressure behind Chen Mo will inevitably be greatly reduced, and if he can draw more troops to fight our army, it will be difficult in the future." ”

"Around Bodao, there will be many talents...... Alas~" Cao Cao put down the bamboo slip a little helplessly and sighed.

Chen Mo sent troops this time, Xu Huang, Gao Shun, Wu Yi, Yu Sheng, Cui Geng, Shi Geng, and almost all of these cronies and generals stayed in the Central Plains to defend, obviously worried that Cao Cao would take the opportunity to make trouble, but even if there were no these generals, look at the generals who emerged around Chen Mo's Northern Expedition.

Needless to say, when Lu Bu occupied Nanyang, he beat Jingzhou and Cao Cao, and even Sun Ce was bullied, and now he is under Chen Mo's command, just this one gives Cao Cao a headache.

Fortunately, the news from the Luoyang Imperial Court that Lu Bu was going to be left in Bingzhou to guard the border pass.

But in addition, Zhao Yun, Ma Chao, Pang De, and Zhang Xiu can all be called good generals, as well as Han Qiong, Zhang He, Gao Lan, and Zhao Zhao, these talents who surrendered from Jizhou, Chen Mo is really a fierce general under his command now, which makes Cao Cao really envious.

"Why worry about the lord, our army also has generals!" Xun Yu smiled and said with relief, Cao Cao has many generals, there is no need to envy Chen Mo.

"However, after this battle, our army is going to actively prepare for war, and I feel that the war between the lord and Chen Mo is not far away." Guo [Lonely City Reading] Jia looked at everyone and said in a deep voice.

After sweeping away Karasuma, I am afraid that no one will dare to provoke Chen Mo in a short period of time, that is to say, Chen Mo will no longer have any worries, and next, I am afraid that he will compete with Cao Cao for the position of the overlord of the north, and this battle will not be too far.

"Hmm." Cao Cao nodded solemnly, even if Chen Mo dragged on and didn't start the war, he would choose to start the war, and if it dragged on like this, Chen Mo's advantage would become bigger and bigger, and he had to compete with Chen Mo before Chen Mo formed a crushing advantage over himself.

Compared with Cao Cao, the south didn't have much feeling about Chen Mo's expedition to Karasuma, but he just felt that Chen Mo slaughtered 100,000 people in the first battle, which violated the way of benevolence, after all, the north was too far away from them, and they might not be able to see a single Hu person in their lifetime, so naturally they would not have much feeling, and the specific news would not spread to the south so quickly.

Of course, Chen Mo doesn't care too much about how the princes see themselves, now the situation in the world has gradually become clear, and next, it is the battle for the northern overlord, as long as he destroys Cao Cao, then the world can basically return to a unified situation.

In May, Chen Mo arrived in Lingzhi and prepared to withdraw from Youzhou after a short rest in Lingzhi.

"Zilong, you have made a lot of contributions in this battle, so you will stay in Youzhou, replace Bao Geng, and serve as the general of Karasuma Zhonglang, although Karasuma is no longer a climate, but this will not always be an empty space, there will definitely be other people coming, Xianbei or Goguryeo in the east, stay here to deter the side plug, now that the Karasuma Zhonglang will be vacant, there is no need to go back to the dynasty to be sealed, everything is simple, the relevant seals, after returning to the dynasty, I will send it to someone, remember, what happened last year, I don't want it to happen again." In the Lingzhi Office, Chen Mo looked at Zhao Yundao.

In this battle, Zhao Yun's cavalry talent is worthy of praise and affirmation, the cavalry composed of the miscellaneous army, Chen Mo did not let them disband, but was assigned to Zhao Yun to supplement the lack of troops in the border area, in addition, he also left 10,000 Jizhou troops in Youzhou to be responsible for the border, and when Tai Shi Ci came, Tai Shi Ci was responsible for the defense of Daijun, and Zhao Yun was responsible for Liaoxi and Yuyang, and waited for two more years, after Zhao Yun had enough merits and people's livelihood, Chen Mo's power in Youzhou was completely stabilized. Zhao Yun and Tai Shi Ci, he will summon a Hui dynasty.

"Thank you lord, Yun Bi will be full of liver and brains, and guard the frontier for the imperial court." Zhao Yun replied angrily.

"You don't have to smear your liver and brains, it's enough to fold one Bao Geng, I don't want to see another general fall here, and only by living can I make contributions to the country." Chen Mo shook his head, patted Zhao Yun on the shoulder and said, "You have the talent of a general, you can't die here, this is a military order!" ”

"Whoa!" Zhao Yun's heart warmed, and he saluted Chen Mo.

"That's right, learn from Wenhou." Chen Mo smiled: "Look at when he thinks about what liver and brain are smeared, he usually asks the enemy to smear his liver and brain." ”

Zhao Yun couldn't help but smile, Lu Bu really proved his bravery to the world this time, 4,000 broke 30,000, and he chased people for a day, which was really arrogant.

"My lord, there is a Liaodong envoy asking to see you." Dian Wei came in from outside the door and saluted Chen Mo.

"Liaodong? Gongsun's? Chen Mo raised his eyebrows, and instantly understood the other party's intention, before the Yuan family brothers voted for the Gongsun clan with the remnants, Chen Mo was still thinking about how to clean up the other party, and now the other party took the initiative to come to see him, I'm afraid he came here for this matter.

"Please!" Chen Mo nodded and said.

Soon, a somewhat feminine man came in and saluted Chen Mo and said, "Liaodong Gongsun Gong see the general!" ”

"No need to be polite." Chen Mo stretched out his hand and said with a smile: "The name of the Gongsun clan in Liaodong has long been heard of by Mo, and the Gongsun clan has been intimidating the border over the years, and it is really the pillar of my Han dynasty." ”

"Don't dare, compared with the general, a little meager name is not enough to worry about." Gongsun Gong said humbly.

"Please!" Chen Mo motioned for Gongsun Gong to take a seat.

After Gongsun thanked him, he knelt down on the guest seat.

"I don't know why General Gongsun came this time?" Chen Mo asked with a smile.

"First, General He won this battle and raised the prestige of my Han, if my brother is not entangled in official business, he will definitely come to congratulate him in person." Gongsun Gong smiled and said: "Second, there are some small gifts that I want to offer to the general." ”

"Oh?" Hearing this, Chen Mo smiled and looked at Gongsun Gong: "I don't know what kind of gift it is?" ”

"Present!" Gongsun Gong looked behind him, and the two waiters stepped forward with the box, and Chen Mo's personal guard took it.

When I opened the box, I saw two human heads in the box.

Gongsun Gong smiled and said: "These two people are the remnants of the Yuan family, Yuan Shang and Yuan Xi, who came to defect before, but my brother heard that the two of them dared to collude with foreign races, cholera and my big man, and in a fit of anger, he killed the two people, and heard that the general returned triumphantly, and the special general will present the heads of these two people to show respect." ”

"I love this gift." After confirming that it was the head of the two, Chen Mo nodded and smiled: "Tell General Gongsun on my behalf that if he is willing to be canonized by the imperial court, he can get the position of General Zuo." ”

General Zuo sounds very big, but it is basically a false position, the Gongsun family can be said to be a prince, but Liaodong is too far away, and if the Gongsun clan is destroyed, the Hu people in the east will lose their deterrence, but it is not good, so as long as the Gongsun clan is willing to admit that he is still a Hanchen, Chen Mo will not easily move Liaodong.

"Thank you, General!"
