Chapter 262: The Best Undercover Candidate

"Heqihou, I didn't expect Your Majesty to send you to assist me."

Of course, Zhang Yuan would not face Gongsun Ao with a cold face.

There's a tough battle ahead.

Once Gongsun Ao felt uncomfortable in his heart and gave Zhang Yuan a pick, it was much more influential than the battle of Yangju Shanzhai.

"Hussar general, I'm afraid you're thinking wrong, the general sent me.

There are not many generals on the general's side, most of them are these Taishou of the Dahan border county, you and I are familiar with each other, and we have worked together for a while.

The general was in charge of the important military and political affairs of the Han Dynasty, so he naturally had to be more thoughtful. ”

Zhang Yuan nodded, I'm afraid this matter is really his own overthinking.

In addition, Gongsun He is now the Taishou of Yuyang County, and it is the most correct choice for him to stay in Yuyang City.

"Hahaha, that's what I said.

It seems that Wei Qing really can't find anyone to cooperate with Zhang Yuan.

Gongsun He is quite suitable, but it is not the same thing for a chariot general to run to cooperate with a hussar general.

This is the basis and fundamental point for him to make the next judgment.

Wei Qing will definitely not go out of the city, and it will not change to defend the city.

What is the current situation in Yuyang City? ”

Zhang Yuan was of course most concerned about the situation of the Han army and the situation on the Xiongnu side.

It was the emptiest defense, with less than 10,000 defenders.

Of the remaining 240,000 troops, 200,000 were all in Yuyang City, and the rest of the army was distributed in other cities in Yuyang County, each with 5,000 to 10,000 people.

In the early stage, Wei Qing followed Zhang Yuan's rhythm, and after the Xiongnu were weak, the Han army had the opportunity to fight head-on, so Wei Qing would have to worry about how to fight positional battles.

"The general ordered the hussar general to let you let go of 100,000 foot soldiers to the fox slave city in Yuyang County.

"The Huns just want revenge, it doesn't make much sense for them to attack other cities, and they won't occupy cities like other peoples.

If they had an army of 700,000, they would all be around Yuyang City.

As for the Huns, I don't know very well, but their strength is no less than 500,000, especially after the arrival of the 200,000 army led by the King of Hun Evil, the total strength must be more than 700,000.

In addition, the general gave me a message that the main army of their Xiongnu should have gathered around Yuyang City. ”

As long as you find a valley that can hold 700,000 cavalry, and then block the mouth of the valley and strangle the Huns.

Zhang Yuan's thinking is very simple, sometimes you can't think too complicated about war, the more complicated it is, the more hesitant people will be, and if they hesitate, they may lose their fighters.

What we need to do is to find out how many troops the Xiongnu have, and then find a place to trap them in one place to seek a decisive battle. ”

Zhang Yuan also thought that there were only 700,000 Xiongnu, and there were 200,000 unstable factors.

Yuyang County has such a terrain, but there is no north of Yuyang City, and after the Great Wall, it is a place where the river is flat.

Gongsun Ao didn't think that Zhang Yuan had the ability to drive the Huns to the south or east.

"But there is no such opportunity in Yuyang County."

Gongsun Ao said with great certainty.

To the north is the mother river of the Wuhuan clan, which they cannot cross.

Although there are three groups of the Han Dynasty to the east, there are Liaoxi County and Liaodong County in Beiping County, but the people will hide in the city.

In fact, Zhang Yuan's plan was to drive the Xiongnu army to the east.

Because only in this way, the Huns could not run away no matter where they went.

If this is really the case, Zhang Yuan doesn't mind destroying Weiman Korea by the way after abusing the Huns.

An army of 10,000 may be enough.

At most, let the Huns trample up the farmland, and Zhang Yuan can afford this loss, and it will not drag the Han down.

More displaced people will flee to North Korea next year.

Is the Korean Peninsula like the final destination of the Huns?

Isn't this just a big natural cloth bag?

In addition, if the Xiongnu kept fleeing to the east, Weiman Korea estimated that it would not even be able to withstand the wave of attacks of the Huns.

The more Zhang Yuan thought about it, the more excited he became.

The battle of Mayi is still vivid.

If it was a peninsula as a valley, then it is quite possible that the Huns plunged headlong into it.

If the Huns didn't run that far, the Liaodong Peninsula could actually do it.

Zhang Yuan really couldn't find a valley that could accommodate an army of 700,000, and even if he found the Huns, he was not stupid.

They have maps, and the Huns don't have them.

Thinking about it, Zhang Yuan spread out the map.

Zhang Yuan didn't think that the Huns could know that the south of Weiman Korea was a peninsula.

I don't even think that anyone in the Huns has ever seen the sea.

Otherwise, it would have been almost impossible to drive the 700,000 cavalry of the Huns to the north with his 150,000 cavalry alone.

At this time, it would be nice if someone could help him within the Xiongnu.

"Hussar General, do you have an idea?"

Zhang Yuan shook his head, he spread out the map and found that unless the Evil King directly chose to cooperate with him, and then put the jump identity on the side of the big man.

Gongsun Ao nodded.

Zhang Yuan's decision to go around first is the right way of thinking.

Zhang Yuan thought of Chu Da, and then shook his head.

"Pass the order, let's go north to pass Juyong Pass first, and then go around to the Yaoyang Governor's Mansion and station."

Zhang Yuan first went to the Yang Governor's Mansion in order to have a place to supply grain and grass.

Fortunately, the military minister died, and Da Dan Yu took over the position by Yi Zhi.

Because there are 10,000 Han troops stationed in Yangduwei, and the second place with the most grain in Yuyang County is to be Yangduwei.

The Huns will not attack the city, and it is likely that Captain Yang Duwei has been behind enemy lines without supplies, so Wei Qing has made a large amount of grain and grass to hoard there, also considering the possibility that Zhang Yuan has a circumvention of the rear.

Yi Zhixian was also careless, feeling that he had an army of 900,000, and the entire Han did not have an army of 900,000, and now he had raised his strength to 900,000 after gathering the forces of the three parties.

In other words, others will also swell.

Zhang Yuan and Wei Qing are still unclear why the scouts from several border counties have withdrawn.

In this way, Zhang Yuan was given an excellent opportunity to go around.

Although he didn't inherit the real thing, Zhang Yuan really saw the saddle.

If there was no saddle, how could Wei Qing and Huo Qubing lead tens of thousands of cavalry to chase the Huns on the grassland.

Because of the development of the saddle in the early Han Dynasty, there were large-scale cavalry battles during the Liu Che period.

It was at this time that the high-waisted saddle appeared.

The next time this kind of pomp and circumstance will appear will be when the Mongols gallop across Eurasia more than a thousand years later.

After deciding to carry out the plan around the rear.

Zhang Yuan made bilateral stirrups and horseshoes, which further strengthened the cavalry's control over the horses.

The Xiongnu and the Han together, there were more than one million cavalry in Yuyang County.

After 100,000 foot soldiers settled in Fox Nu City, Yuyang City had support.

The distance between Yuyang City and Fox Slave City is only fifty miles, whether it is Fox Slave City supporting Yuyang City or Yuyang City supporting Fox Slave City, it is very convenient.

150,000 cavalry began to move north, and the other 100,000 foot soldiers were led by Gao Buzhi and Zhao Buyu to Hunu City.

The 250,000-strong army parted ways in Zhuoxian.

Zhang Yuan was on his way to the Governor's Mansion in Yaoyang, when he suddenly remembered Zhao Xin, a Hun in the team.

Zhang Yuan has an impression of Zhao Xin.

Wei Qing transferred 100,000 foot soldiers to Fox Slave City, which has another meaning.

It is hoped that this 100,000-strong army can attract some of the Hun cavalry, so that the predicament of Yuyang City can be temporarily alleviated.

The reason why Zhang Yuan can remember Zhao Xin is actually because he said that he was principled, and he said that he was principled, and if he said that he was unprincipled, he could be regarded as unprincipled.

He did his best to fight for the Han and train cavalry for the Han when he was in the Han Dynasty.

Zhao Xin is the earliest Huns in history to surrender to the Han Dynasty.

And Zhao Xin was a small king in the Xiongnu, and when he returned to the arms of the Xiongnu, he was even more obliquely named the second king by Yizhi, with a status no less than that of the king of Guli.

Zhao Xin likes one of the daughters of the military minister Shan Yu, and then the military minister looks down on Zhao Xin, and the story of forcing Zhao Xin to surrender to the Han is actually quite bloody when you think about it.

Zhang Yuan thought about it like this, not only was there an unstable factor on the Huns' side, but there was also one on his side.

After returning to the Xiongnu, he tried his best to serve the Xiongnu, regardless of Liu Che's favor to him in the past.

Moreover, Zhao Xin's surrender was a defeat and surrender, not a surrender that he originally wanted to surrender.

"Marquis."

"Hussar General."

When the military minister gets his daughter out, Zhao Xin's lover is likely to rebel.

Thinking of this, Zhang Yuan called Zhao Xin to his side on the way.

"I heard that you like the daughter of the Xiongnu Dadan Yu Junchen?"

Zhao Xin's face changed, he had never told anyone about this matter, even if there were very few people who knew about it on the Xiongnu side.

Zhao Xin still has a lot of respect for Zhang Yuan.

So Zhang Yuancai felt that this person was a little weird, and Zhao Xin actually had a good attitude towards everyone.

"I like the daughter of the military minister, Ayimei, but the military minister has an enmity with me, and I have taken refuge in the Han, and I am afraid that I will not be able to meet Ayimei again in this life."

"Who says you can't?"

"Where did the hussar general find out?"

"You answer yes or no."

"You have too much heart, I just want to confirm with you, the last Huns in the province were defeated, and the people under your hands hurt your sweetheart."

Zhao Xin also went on many expeditions, so he naturally saw the situation where the Han people killed the Huns immediately when they saw them.

The hussar general suddenly asked what this was for?

Could it be that I'm worried that Zhao Xin will turn back? ”

It's too far. ”

"Oh, it's fine.

He was a Hunn, but he couldn't stop the soldiers.

"Thank you Hussar General for your concern, but I'm afraid that Ah Yimei is far away in Wolf Juxu Mountain now, and even if we win, we won't be able to get to that place.

Zhang Yuan thought that Zhao Xindu would be able to get together with Da Shan Yu's daughter, and if he had a grudge against the military ministers, he could still run to the side of the Han Dynasty, and his status would definitely not be low.

After thinking about it, maybe I can find a breakthrough in Zhao Xin.

If we win, we'll chase you all the way there to reunite you with your sweetheart. ”

"Thank you, Hussar General."

"Back to the hussar general, I was familiar with the patriarchs of several tribes at the beginning, and I was a nobleman of the Huns, so some people were on my side.

It's just that now that I've taken refuge in Dahan, I've cut off contact with those people, maybe those who originally supported me are now the ones who hate me the most. ”

"Your status was not very low when you were in the Huns, and it is estimated that there are still your cronies on the Huns."

Zhao Xin frowned, feeling that this was Zhang Yuan's true intention.

"But I need the Marquis to help the big man now, and only you can help the big man."

"Hussar General, please say, as long as I can do it, I will do it!"

Zhang Yuan believed this.

Those Han people who took refuge in the Xiongnu were scolded to death.

The fact that the evil king wanted to surrender to the Han was not a secret in Chang'an, and there were not many people who really did it, and Zhao Xin had also heard of it.

To be honest, this matter is not very difficult for him.

"Now the Xiongnu Da Dan Yu led all the armies to surround Yuyang City, and all that is left in the city is definitely some old and weak women and children, as well as cavalry who sent food to the Xiongnu army.

If you can go to the city of Decadence and find someone who can help us contact the Evil King, you should be the first to take credit for this battle. ”

"Tell the Evil King that when I appear, he must immediately turn back.

In addition, let him plot against Wuhuan Da Dan Yu, after the end of the war, Wuhuan Da Dan Yu can enjoy the same treatment as the evil king.

It's just that Zhang Yuan really reassured him to do this.

"What does the hussar general need me to bring to the Evil King?"

The reason why the Wuhuan people did not develop to the southeast was only because the founders of Weiman Korea were Han Chinese, and Weiman Korea was a vassal state of the Han Dynasty, and he was worried that the Han would help Weiman Korea.

Otherwise, the power of the Wuhuan clan will be able to destroy these people.

I will seize Weiman Korea and give it to the Wuhuan clan! If he wants to take down the raccoon dog and Samhan, I can also send a large army to support him. ”

What Zhang Yuan said was nonsense, as long as the Han could destroy Weiman Korea, he would easily crush these ethnic tribes on the Korean Peninsula with the combat power of Wuhuan.

Only Liu Che.

It is impossible for Zhang Yuan to make decisions for Liu Che.

And what Zhang Yuan said, Zhao Xin knew, what he said was all to fool Wuhuan Da Shan Yu.

Who would dare to say that in Dahan?

Zhao Xin also felt that Yi Zhixian only had 700,000 cavalry, and after removing the 200,000 of the Evil King of Hun and the 200,000 of Wuhuan Dadanyu, there were only 300,000 left.

Even if the Evil King and Wuhuan Da Dan watched from the wall, the Han army could easily deal with these 300,000 people.

As long as the Huns did not run to the east, even if they won the final victory, Zhang Yuan could not command the army to destroy Weiman Korea.

However, Zhao Xin felt that if he told the Hun Evil King like this, the Hun Evil King would also agree to fool Wuhuan Da Danyu, and the success rate would be quite high.

"The last general has remembered clearly, I will find a way to infiltrate their garrison with the Huns who escort the grain and grass."

"If that's the case, it couldn't be better."

Now it seems that the Quartet is the weakest, and it seems that the Xiongnu headquarters is the weakest.

Although they have 300,000 people, it is your 300,000 that the Han army wants to destroy.

If Zhao Xin turned against the water and told all the situation to the Xiongnu Dadan Yu Junchen, then at least the evil king would not be able to sit still.

Originally, the Xiongnu Da Dan Yu was suspicious of the evil king.

Zhang Yuan was overjoyed, originally he just wanted Zhao Xin to find some people to deliver the letter, but he didn't expect Zhao Xin to have an undercover heart.

As for the possibility of Zhao Xin's surrender, Zhang Yuan also thought about it.

It is not too simple for the military ministers to take away the military power of the Hun Evil King, and if they directly kill the Hun Evil King, the 200,000 army will definitely only listen to the Hun Dadan Yu Junchen.

Isn't the evil king of Hun worried that the Xiongnu Da Dan will forcibly take away his military power after he finds out?

Whether it is the Han or the Huns, everyone knows about it.

Therefore, Zhao Xin honestly did what Zhang Yuan said, which would cause internal turmoil in the Xiongnu army.

He is not honest, he chooses to oppose the water, and there will still be chaos within the Hun army.

The evil king of Hun will definitely be suspicious of each other with the Huns.
