At Juyong Pass in Shanggu County, Zhao Xin parted ways with the large army.

Of course, this behavior has been seen by many people, and most people choose not to see it, because it is possible that Zhang Yuan gave Zhao Xin some special task.

However, there is not no one in the army who is unhappy when he sees Zhang Yuan.

Even if Zhang Yuan was unwilling, Zhang Qian still followed.

Zhang Yuan didn't say that he hated these people, he just felt that they would drag him back.

There is a specialization in the art industry, Zhang Qian's strength is in the envoy to foreign countries and the survival of the Jedi, Zhang Yuan can be sure that he does not have the talent and skill point of fighting.

Less than a day after Zhao Xin left the army, Zhang Qian couldn't hold back and asked.

"Hussar General, where have the Marquis gone?

We don't seem to have any other plans, do we? ”

"You're questioning me?"

Zhang Yuan didn't bother to give Zhang Qian a good face, how Zhang Cigong cheated Li Shuo before, Zhang Yuan still remembers it vividly, and he can't use this trick on Zhang Qian.

Just give him a pair of armor and a ring-headed sword, and let him charge with a thousand men and horses.

Zhang Qian has to go even if he wants to go, and if he doesn't want to go, he still has to go.

I have the power in my hands!

Zhang Qian fantasized about meeting with Wei Qing's army as soon as possible, so that Zhang Yuan's military power would be restrained by Wei Qing.

Any wrong decision by Zhang Yuan will definitely be vetoed by Wei Qing.

In this way, Zhang Qian has a chance, a chance to reverse.

But now that Zhang Yuan is still in charge of the 150,000 cavalry, he immediately jumped out and questioned Zhang Yuan, it seems that the experience of the Huns did not teach him the truth of being a man.

"The subordinate didn't dare to question the hussar general, but he just felt that we should be open and honest."

"Do you know what happened to the last person who questioned me like that?"

Zhang Yuan is talking about Han Shuo, and I don't know if the injuries on his body have healed, whether he has left a disability.

"The lower officials don't know, the lower officials only know that they have to consider the interests of the Han Dynasty.

Zhao Xin himself is a Huns, in case he defects to the Huns and tells all our information to the Huns, such a responsibility the hussar general can't afford it. ”

Zhang Qian's ability to button his hat is not weak, but Zhang Yuan doesn't care about him buttoning his hat indiscriminately.

"Since you don't know, I'll tell you.

That person's name is Han Yan, the younger brother of the doctor Han Yan.

He had questioned me earlier in the surrendered city in the same tone as you, and then I had given me a hundred lashes, and he did not receive the slightest military merit for such a great victory afterwards. ”

Zhang Yuan said it lightly, but several generals around him gasped.

"I remember that there was another man named Li Guang who pointed a sword at me, and now he is also retired in Chang'an City.

In the past, Wu'an Hou Tian Wei wanted to kill me, but now Tian Wei is in his own Hou country, and I am already the Marquis of Wanhu.

There is also a master father who has also fought against me, and now he is dead.

Zhang Qian: I advise you to find out the current situation and not make me unhappy because of some things.

I can tell you now that the reason why Li Shuo was captured by the Huns was because Zhang Cigong threw him into the encirclement of the Huns, and then ignored him.

Let him fight against a Hun general, who also successfully entangled Li Shuo, and then captured him alive.

If you want me to send someone to rescue you when you fall into an ambush by the Huns, you can stay honest now, don't care about anything, don't ask anything. ”

"You.. You are threatening me, and I will write to Your Majesty to impeach you. ”

"Impeach me? Zhao Ponu! ”

"The last general!"

"If Changshi Zhang Qian is surrounded by the Hun army, and then you send a large army to save him, it is very likely that one person will lose thousands or even tens of thousands of people, will you still save him?"

Zhao Ponu was mixed in the Xiongnu region when he was a child, and only returned to the Han Dynasty to serve in the army when he became an adult, and he was unruly, and he didn't know what kind of character Zhang Qian was.

But after sweeping his eyes, he still understood that this person was probably a waste who couldn't carry it on his shoulders and couldn't carry it in his hands.

"Back to the hussar general, the last general will not save Changshi."

"Why?"

"Because Changshi will only become a burden to us, but after he dies or is captured, I will choose to avenge him!"

"What will you do if the Huns have captured him and threatened you?"

"Shouldn't Changshi bite his tongue and kill himself in this situation? How could they give the Hun thieves a chance to threaten our Han army? ”

Zhao Ponu's words were stuck in Zhang Qian's heart like a knife.

He had no grudge against Zhao Ponu, and he hadn't even met before he set off.

Zhang Qian looked at the other generals again, and everyone looked at him with disdain.

You can do without force, but you must at least be able to give advice like Zhang Yuan.

Those who can only make trouble are the least popular in the army, because one more such person will reduce the chances of survival of the soldiers.

"Zhang Qian, can you hear General Zhao's words? Send someone to your majesty, and I'll see how your majesty will react.

It's a big deal that I, Zhang Yuan, shouldn't be this hussar general, let you be the one, and you go to war with the Huns? ”

In front of Liu Che, Zhang Yuan definitely didn't dare to say this, but it didn't matter if there was a Zhang Qian.

Afterwards, Zhang Qian sued the royal court, and Liu Che didn't necessarily believe it.

Liu Che's character is to be suspicious of everyone and everything.

"Hussar general, it's the general who didn't think about the conflict."

"Go down, there are some things I don't need to explain to you clearly, you must know that the last time I went on an expedition until I arrived at the surrendered city, the others knew that my goal was Fuyang Jushan Sasa, and Your Majesty didn't know in advance.

In the military, secrecy is a very important thing, and I will not tell anyone about some confidential things until the last moment. ”

Zhang Yuan's rare patience explained to Zhang Qian.

He didn't want to become an enemy in the end, so Zhang Qian gave him a lot of seeds so that he could eat fruits such as grapes and cantaloupe.

In today's era of condiments, the taste of fruit is the best, no matter how delicious the cooked dishes are.

"Xiaguan understands."

Zhang Qian retreated, and the army was able to continue its march.

After passing the Juyong Pass and going forward, it is fast to cross the Great Wall, and after crossing the Great Wall, it is basically around the back of the Xiongnu army, Zhang Yuan's 150,000 army is going east to the Yuyang County to the Governor's Mansion.

From the Great Wall to the Governor's Mansion in Yaoyang, it took less than half a day.

The army has always marched in a state of rapid advance.

Zhang Yuan also saw traces of the Huns crossing the border on the way, and the places where the cavalry passed were a lot lower than the surrounding ground level.

However, from this trace alone, Zhang Yuan could not tell how many Huns there were.

After arriving at the Yang Governor's Mansion, Zhang Yuan showed the seal letter, and asked the Yang Governor to open the city gate and let Zhang Yuan enter.

Zhang Yuan felt that it was actually very good for the Han to set up these captains in the border counties and let the army guard the frontier.

The people also have some time to react after the enemy from the north is attacking.

The benefits of the Huns' plundering of the Han people were not very large, otherwise every time they made peace, they would not have been able to maintain peace for many years.

Compared with the Song Dynasty, they have already knelt down and cannot satisfy the aliens.

Every time a foreign race went south, it was not the Song army that was the first to be unlucky, but the people of the Song Dynasty.

It is always the Han army that is unlucky in the Han Dynasty, and if the Han army can't hold the Great Wall, the people will be unlucky.

On the first day of the Imperial Commander, a light rain fell in the sky.

The crowded Yang Governor's Mansion is simply not a place to get down.

There are only five flavors in the air.

, pee, fart, dirt, and sweat.

The soldiers in the army basically finished pulling, and then buried it casually with soil, and urinated directly at the root of the city wall.

As for horse manure, no one cleaned it up at all.

The environment is so bad that Zhang Yuan can only endure it.

In the past, camps were set up in the wild, and no matter how bad the environment was, at least the air was circulating.

Now surrounded by four city walls and raining, Zhang Yuan's mood is really stuffy.

But he also needs to wait now, waiting for Zhao Xin to return to the Yaoyang Governor's Mansion, and then he has to find a way to get in touch with Wei Qing.

The situation in Yuyang City must be clarified.

Zhang Yuan thought of this and summoned Zhao Ponu.

A Han person who can live in the Xiongnu since he was a child is not comparable to ordinary people.

"Hussar General, are you looking for me?"

Zhao Ponu was actually very surprised, since he left Chang'an City, Zhang Yuan paid more attention to him than to others.

And he was just a small officer, so he just had a chance to go on the expedition this time.

In the army, he is not as good as Gao who doesn't know them, and Zhao Ponu is not a senior general like a lieutenant until now.

And Zhang Yuan is the hussar general of the Han Dynasty, the marquis of Wanhu, the difference in status between the two is too much, if Zhang Yuan is looking for someone to discuss countermeasures, he should also be looking for Gongsun Ao and their long-famous generals.

"Well, I have a task for you, but it's a little dangerous."

"General, you said that the last general will definitely guarantee the completion of the task."

Zhang Yuan turned around and pointed to Yuyang City on the map.

"I need you to go to Yuyang City to find out how the Hun army surrounded Yuyang City, whether there are any weak defenses in their encirclement, or whether we have a chance to contact the Han army in the city."

"The last general commands."

"Wait, you can't bring up to ten people, change into the clothes of the Wuhuan clan, you must be careful and careful."

"The last general understands!"

Zhao Ponu knelt on one knee with his hands clenched into fists, which made Zhang Yuan think that Wei Qing also had this kind of momentum at the beginning.

To be honest, it's still a young man, and an old fritter like Zhang Cigong gave him ten people to do this kind of thing, and he didn't even think about it.

He's sure to let his men do it.

After these people were sealed as marquis, the momentum in their bones was gone, and it was no wonder that Liu Che found a reason to deprive these people of their titles.

The atmosphere in Yuyang City is more relaxed than the atmosphere in the Governor's Mansion of Yaoyang.

The Hun army withdrew a third of its cavalry.

The direction of withdrawal was the south of Yuyang City.

As soon as the Hun army moved like this, Wei Qing knew that it was the 100,000 army that had settled in Hunu City.

The 900,000 army left 300,000 at once, which made Wei Qing's heart much less stressed.

Now there are 200,000 troops in Yuyang City, even if the Huns have siege equipment, Wei Qing is sure to fight with the Huns.

The three-bow bed crossbow is a sharp weapon for defending the city and fighting positional battles.

The walls of Yuyang City can have a maximum of 50,000 troops, and Wei Qing can completely divide the 200,000 army into four parts, changing two waves a day.

There is a respite in each wave.

But Yi Zhixian just didn't attack the city, and the daily scolding was still continuing, and the two sides were so consumed.

Wuhuan Da Dan Yu and the Hun Evil King were not in much of a hurry like Wei Qing, even if half of the army in their hands went to Fox Slave City.

Yi Zhixian is the only one who is anxious, and if he doesn't get the victory he wants for a day, his prestige will slowly decrease with the passage of time.

On this day, Yi Zhixian sent people to scold the battle as usual.

Wei Qing didn't ignore it as before.

He continued to use the tricks of the first day of the Xiongnu siege.

The four walls of Yuyang City were opened by him again.

Izhi was overjoyed, for the Evil King had told him that if he had enough cavalry charged, he would be able to rush to the gates before they were closed.

He immediately called the evil king and Wuhuan Da Dan Yu to his big order in the tent, and wanted to discuss.

"Do you two know that Wei Qing has opened the gate of Yuyang City again?"

The evil king couldn't figure it out, the same trick was used twice in a row, was Wei Qing stupid or did he think the Huns were stupid?

"You know, you want to be the same as the last time, right?"

"No, this time I plan to send 100,000 troops as you said last time, and then if I can rush into the city, I will let all the troops charge into Yuyang City together."

Yi Zhixian didn't want to drag it out any longer.

There are already Xiongnu soldiers who want to return to their tribes to graze, and when summer comes, the grass on the grassland is not as tender as the grass in spring.

"Okay, I support Da Danyu's approach."

Wuhuan Da Shan Yu saw that the evil king agreed, and he also nodded.

"That's it, I hope to be able to take Yuyang City in one fell swoop.

We've been pinned down here for a long time. ”

The Hun Evil King still hadn't made up his mind in his heart, otherwise he would have dedicated the poisonous plan in his heart that could easily destroy the 200,000 Han troops in Yuyang City to Yi Zhixian.

Wei Qing did not sit still after Yuyang City was besieged.

Zhang Yuan has always deduced the war with the assumption that the evil king of Hun defected to the Xiongnu.

And Wei Qing has been thinking about how his 200,000 army can defeat the 700,000 army of the Xiongnu.

Wei Qing's name that has been passed down for more than 2,000 years is not false.

He had already begun experimenting with the ideas in his mind.

Opening the city gate again on this day was an experiment, but it was necessary to test the lives of the Huns.

Wei Qing, who has always been safe, made a risky move for the second time.

The reason why he has such a change is only because he understands a truth, which he learned from Zhang Yuan.

The Huns had an advantage in strength over the Han and could not win if they were safe.

Take the current strength comparison, Wei Qing has been stable There is only one result, the Huns found that you Wei Qing did not dare to go out of the city, then they did not attack the city, and directly changed the direction, either go back to the grassland, or go to attack other cities, or continue to harass the people of the Han Dynasty to the south.

Liu Che wanted victory, not the withdrawal of the Huns.

If there is no fault in internal affairs, it is meritorious, because the money and grain in the warehouse will gradually increase.

But if you don't win a military victory, you're guilty, and if you don't win a war, you still consume all the money and grain in the warehouses across the country, it's not guilty, what is this?

Wei Qing combined with Zhang Yuan to fight against the enemy several times, and found that Zhang Yuan was actually taking risks every time.

But every time it wins.

It cannot be said that every time is a fluke, but because only adventure can be taken by surprise.

There are more Han people than the Huns, and the Han army has more cavalry than the Huns, but the Huns are all cavalry and have strong mobility, so he doesn't fight with your foot soldiers.

If you want to fight him, you have to use your own cavalry, and then the numerical advantage is gone.

Such an outcome is only possible with risk.

Wei Qing wanted to consume these Huns who surrounded Yuyang City, and he could only take risks.
