The next day, Wang Li led an army of 200,000 to the north from the camp of the Great Wall, passing through the Hetao (now Houtao in Inner Mongolia and its east to Baotou City, the northern area of the Yikezhao League on the south bank of the Yellow River), and the 200,000 troops changed into the war horses that had been swept back a few days ago, and then crossed the Yin Mountain, thousands of miles straight to the north of the Wolf Juxu Mountain......

This is a battle that will determine the final victory!

This is also the deepest expedition of the Central Plains to the northern grasslands in hundreds of years.

Run thousands of miles away, to the extremely cold border of the Xiongnu, Hanhai (in the area of present-day Lake Baikal, located in the south of Eastern Siberia, Russia)!

This expedition is also destined to be recorded in history, and history will be remembered forever.

In the Great Wall camp, Li Yang himself left 30,000 troops to guard the Great Wall camp.

The reason why it is necessary to stay in the big camp is to prevent it.

What if Mao Dun expected that the Qin army would raise a large army to chase and kill the north of Wolf Juxu Mountain, so he went the opposite way and also took the opportunity to steal the camp?

Therefore, the Great Wall camp must stay with 30,000 troops to ensure safety.

Anyway, if Li Yang was Maodun, he would definitely take advantage of the Qin army's northern expedition to take advantage of the emptiness of the Great Wall camp to seize the Qin army's camp, or the 600,000 people and livestock in the Hetao.

If this is the case, it is clear that the tide of the war can be turned around.

It's just that although Li Yang has this defense, he doesn't think that Mao Dun will have such a crazy idea, after all, not everyone can gamble as much as himself.

Especially Maudun, if he loses the bet, he loses it all.

Therefore, Mao Dun should return to the north of Wolf Juxu Mountain, and only when he returns there will he have a source of troops and supplies.

…………

When Wang Li led the army on an expedition, at the request of Li Yang in the good news, Xiao He, who was transferred from the central court to the county of Donghu, also rushed to the Great Wall camp.

"Congratulations to the dean, congratulations to the dean, the northern expedition has been going north for a few days, and he has made immortal achievements and shocked the government and the opposition!"

As soon as Xiao He saw Li Yang, he congratulated him with a smile.

After a few days of the Northern Expedition, such a feat is indeed worth congratulating, but this is not a sycophancy.

When Li Yang saw Xiao He, he was naturally very happy, and said with a smile: "This northern expedition can achieve fruitful results in such a short period of time, which is also beyond the expectations of this hospital. Why, is the DPRK and China also very shocked by this? ”

Xiao He thought to himself, such a result, even you are surprised, can the DPRK not be shocked?

At that moment, he hurriedly said: "The court is not only shocked, everyone heard that you not only plundered the Huns, but also unified Donghu, all of them were shocked, even Your Majesty did not come back to his senses for a long time, and he waited for the day of the dean's triumph, and led hundreds of officials to meet him outside the city." ”

"Oh? Hahaha! ”

When Li Yang heard this, he was overjoyed, although he couldn't see the shocked expressions of the ministers of the DPRK and China, he could also imagine that picture, and couldn't help but say: "This result depends on Your Majesty's trust." ”

As a traverser, Li Yang knows that the higher the merit, the more you can't be proud of your merits, because there are many people who have died in history who are proud of their merits.

Xiao He smiled, naturally knowing Li Yang's thoughts, so he stopped praising and asked instead: "What are the dean's plans for the establishment of Donghu County?" ”

Li Yang nodded, and then told the idea of using the county system to divide the Donghu tribe.

This idea was also approved by Xiao He's hands.

Xiao He handled internal affairs, that was a good hand, and Li Yang was also very relieved to entrust this matter to him.

After chatting about Donghu, Xiao He forwarded the urgent performance of Jiuyuan County to Li Yang.

Jiuyuan County suddenly relocated more than 600,000 Xiongnu people, which was indeed a very tricky matter for Jiuyuan County.

Because Li Yang also came back from Donghu, he didn't know in advance that Wang Li and Zhang Han would capture the Xiongnu people, so he didn't have time to deal with the affairs of Jiuyuan County.

At this time, when he saw the urgent performance of Jiuyuan County, he immediately commented on the urgent performance with eight words: Properly settled, young and strong enlistment.

These more than 600,000 Xiongnu people, since they were captured to the Qin State, are naturally the people of the Qin State, so they must be properly settled, so that after the king leaves their side and completely destroys the Maodun regime, these people can move back into the grassland, and use the county system to completely stabilize the grassland.

Of course, in order to put an end to hidden dangers, the young and strong among the more than 600,000 Xiongnu people must also be conscripted into the army, so as to weaken the threat of the Xiongnu nation.

After writing down the eight-word instructions, Li Yang had a headache.

The resettlement of the people can make the Jiuyuan County guard responsible, but the matter of conscripting troops to form a new Xiongnu army must also send a general over.

You must know that there are 600,000 Xiongnu people, of which there are 350,000 young and strong, but at present, the Great Wall camp, all the generals above the captain level have left with the king to fight against the Xiongnu, which can be said to be almost to the point where no one is available.

Today's Great Wall battalion has only six middle-level generals, all of whom are captains. Captain, can you take on such a heavy responsibility?

Li Yang doesn't have that confidence.

The commander of the Qin army, commanding a battalion and 3,000 soldiers, suddenly had to be sent to form a new army of 350,000 people, which was obviously not something that ordinary people could do.

At this moment, a lieutenant came to the council chamber and reported: "Boss, there is something to do at the end." ”

"What's the matter?"

Li Yang beckoned and motioned for him to come in.

This lieutenant is very young, probably in his twenties, and he looks magnificent.

The lieutenant entered the hall, saluted, and said: "Commander Qiqi, now my 200,000 troops are on an expedition against the Huns with General Wang Li, and the last general is worried that Mao Dun will go the opposite way and take the opportunity to raid the Hetao, so that my Great Wall battalion is suddenly weak, and it is difficult to rescue for a while, I am afraid that 600,000 Hun people and livestock will be owned by Mao Dun, and I hope the commander will be more vigilant!" ”

Upon hearing this, Li Yang was stunned.

couldn't help but take a closer look at the young player in front of him.

Wang Li, Zhang Han and others didn't think of a problem, but this little lieutenant in front of him was able to think of it, which made Li Yang quite surprised.

You must know that this kind of military planning is generally discussed by the general future, and the commander is generally only responsible for how to carry out the orders formulated by the commander and the generals.

And the captain in front of him, who stayed in the barracks, was able to consider these risks for the coach, which is the most commendable.

Moreover, his concern was not justified, because the reason why he left 30,000 troops was to prevent this incident.

Thinking of this, Li Yang couldn't help but ask with interest: "Do you think that Mao Dun will not return to the north of Wolf Juxu Mountain?" Instead, he hid somewhere in the grassland, waiting for my army to go straight to the direction of Wolf Juxu Mountain, and then take the opportunity to recapture the people and livestock of the Hetao? ”

Du Wei nodded: "Although the probability is extremely low, but ...... If the end is Maoton, it will be like this! ”

"Oh, hahaha!"

Hearing this, Li Yang laughed three times.

Xiao He, who was on the side, couldn't help but smile and nodded, looking at the young lieutenant in front of him with appreciation, obviously, he also felt that this lieutenant was a general.

Seeing Li Yang laughing, the lieutenant thought that he was thinking wrong, and couldn't help but wonder: "Why is the boss laughing, if the last general is wrong, I hope the boss will punish him!" ”

Li Yang smiled: "There is nothing wrong with your worries, the reason why Ben Shuai left an army of 30,000 is to prevent this matter." ”

"Oh?"

Du Wei was stunned for a moment, couldn't help but be embarrassed and a little embarrassed, and said: "In this way, it seems that the last general is too worried." ”

Li Yang waved his hand and said with a smile: "You can consider this matter, Ben Shuai is quite pleased, it can be seen that you are cautious." ”

Speaking of this, Li Yang then asked, "What's your name?" ”

"The last general, Zhao Ben!" The Lieutenant replied.

"Zhao Ben?"

As soon as he heard this name, Li Yang was stunned.

Because of this name, Li Yang is very impressive, and there was a general at the end of Qin, who was called Zhao Ben.

Moreover, Zhao Ben, the general of the late Qin Dynasty in history, is not as famous as Zhang Han, but he is a famous general of the late Qin Dynasty who fought to the end.

According to historical records, in May of the first year of the Han Dynasty, Liu Bang led the Han army to return to the Three Qins, and sent Cao Shen, Zhou Bo, and Fan Hao to enter Xianyang, and defeated Zhao Ben and the Neishi Bao army to conquer Xianyang.

What does that mean?

Dingsan Qin refers to Zhang Han, Sima Xin, and Dong Peng, the three generals of the Qin Dynasty who were sealed by Xiang Yu as kings in the Guanzhong region. That is to say, at that time, Zhang Han, Sima Xin, and Dong Peng, the three famous generals at the end of Qin, were all the kings of Xiang Yu's division, and only Zhao Ben was the last general of the Qin State.

It's just that Zhao Ben still failed to stop Liu Bang's pace and completely lost Xianyang, and since then Zhao Ben has completely disappeared from the historical stage.

In short, Zhao Ben in history is the last general in the Central Army of Qin II, and his status is not low.

At this time, Li Yang couldn't help but think in his heart, wouldn't the lieutenant in front of him be Zhao Ben, the last member of the Central Army of Qin II in history?

If you think about it, it's a real possibility.

After all, Zhao Ben was not recorded before the outbreak of the peasant uprising at the end of Qin, or even in the great war in the early Qin II.

It was not until 207 BC that there was a record of him.

And in 207 BC, that is, when Zhang Han, Sima Xin, and Dong Peng surrendered to Xiang Yu, he was activated by Qin II.

In other words, before that, he was just an unknown young general.

Thinking of this, Li Yang decided to use the person in front of him, also known as Zhao Ben.

"Good name! Zhao Ben, Ben Shuai asked you, since you thought that Mao Dun might make a surprise attack on the Hetao, how do you think it is more appropriate? ”

Zhao Ben thought for a while, and then said: "The last general thinks that half of the troops should be transferred to the Hetao, and it will be Wance." ”

Li Yang nodded: "Okay, Ben Shuai promoted you to the right general, gave you 15,000 soldiers, and garrisoned the Hetao!" ”

Zhao Ben was stunned for a moment, obviously not expecting that Li Yang would actually reuse him.

You must know that the Qin army has a system, and it is still a general, a former general, a rear general, a right general, and a left general, and below are all lieutenants and school captains. In other words, he is equivalent to being promoted two levels in a row.

Suddenly, Zhao Ben thanked him and saluted: "The last general, thank you for the grace of the coach!" ”

Li Yang smiled, signaled that he didn't need to be polite, and then said: "However, you went to the Hetao this time, first, for arming, and second, for another task. ”

"The manager has made it clear that the last general will go all out." Zhao Ben said.

Li Yang said: "This commander wants you to select young people from the 600,000 Huns to form a new army. Are you competent? ”

Zhao Ben was stunned in his heart, naturally knowing that the formation of this new army was equivalent to his own command of an army of tens of thousands of people, thinking of this, his heart was even more excited, and he couldn't help but boil with all his blood, and said impassionedly: "The last general will not disgrace his mission!" ”

"Okay, you can get ready and go now!"

Saying that, the urgency of Jiuyuan County will be in the hands of Zhao Ben, and let him bring it to the county guard of Jiuyuan County.

"Whoa!"

Zhao Ben received the order, with an excited look on his face, and hurried down to prepare.

After seeing Zhao Ben retreat, Xiao He on the side smiled and said, "Dean, this person is indeed a rare general!" ”

Li Yang nodded, thinking, if it is right, this person is the general of the late Qin Dynasty.
