However, it was said that the three brothers Li Mu led 3,000 Han troops, all the way non-stop, and at dusk of the same day, they rushed to the Qingshui River, and the westward Han army was stationed in the Qingshui River camp that night.

On the second day, after the Han army was full, Li Mu ordered the westward Han army to change into the clothes of the Xianbei army.

The army crossed the Qingshui River and marched in a northwesterly direction. At noon that day, the westward army reached Heicheng. Li Mu ordered the Han army to bury pots and cook on the spot, so that they did not have to set up camp.

Li Mu knew that this black city was only eighty miles away from the hinterland of the Xianbei army in the clouds, and if the army attacked by surprise, it would only take more than half an hour to arrive.

Li Mu also passed down the general's order, and the army rested until tonight, and tomorrow when it was ugly, it attacked the clouds.

……

Li Mu looked at Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao, and said with a serious expression:

"The second brother, the third brother, the leaders of the Xianbei army in the clouds, Putou and Fu Luohan, have all died, and the elite in the clouds has been wiped out."

"Now, the Xianbei army in the hinterland of the clouds is only 10,000 people, and the combat effectiveness is naturally uneven, and there is no need to be afraid!"

"There must be a large amount of grain, grass, and ordnance stored in the hinterland of the clouds, and this should be the gathering place of the Xianbei people in the clouds, and naturally there will be no shortage of women, children and children. What do you two think about this? ”

"Big brother, from Zilong's point of view, my westward army only kills the Xianbei army, and the grain, grass and ordnance that can't be transported can be burned. As for women and children, they can be left to fend for themselves! ”

Zhao Yun pondered for a while and said in a deep voice.

"What the second brother said is very true. At present, our westward army is only 3,000 people, and if this surprise attack is successful, we will have to move eastward, join forces with General Huangfu, and attack Danhan Mountain. Zhang Liao replied loudly.

"The Xianbei army is slaughtered! Food, grass and ordnance are destroyed! As for the women and children, the old and the weak, the women and children are left behind, and the rest are slaughtered! ”

Li Mu nodded, his face sank, and he said in a deep voice.

As soon as Li Mu's voice fell, I saw that Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao's faces changed greatly!

Zhao Yun took a step forward and hurriedly said: "Big brother, this kind of practice is too cruel, my Han is a state of etiquette, An can do such a thing!" ”

"This is the way to take evil and destroy yourself, please think twice!"

Zhang Liao said with a solemn expression.

"What the two virtuous brothers said is reasonable! The Han is a state of etiquette, what about Xianbei? How did they treat the old and weak of the Han family? How did they treat the Han women? ”

Li Mu said in a deep voice.

Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao were silent!

"Zilong, Wenyuan, if you let these children go today, what about five years and ten years from now?"

"They will also grow into Xianbei soldiers, and then swing their sabers at the people of the Great Han."

"If they were the people of the Great Han, I, Li Mu, would naturally not do such a thing."

Li Mu said in a deep voice.

Li Mu saw that Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao were still silent, and said: "Thousands of merits, my descendants have commented that I, Li Mu, have a clear conscience!" This notoriety is borne by me, Li Mu, alone. ”

"Big brother, the three of us are righteous brothers, and this infamous Zilong is willing to carry it."

"Big brother, Wen Yuan is willing to carry this notoriety."

Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao said in unison.

"Both of you are loyal and courageous people, and it is really difficult for the two of you to do such a shameless thing."

Li Mu sighed and said.

"Brothers should be of one heart and one mind."

Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao said in unison.

……

But he said that he couldn't return to see that Putou and Fu Luohan had been gone for two days, and when he saw that no news came, he was also shocked in his heart.

I had to send a scout horse to explore the direction of the Qingshui River along the clouds, but I didn't see the return of the scout. If he didn't return, he had to strengthen his vigilance, and waited for Putou and Fu Luohan to return.

The westward army rested overnight, and just after the hour, Li Mu beat the drum and raised the tent. After the three drums, the Han army was assembled.

"This rush to the clouds, success or failure in this move, if you can defeat the Xianbei army in the clouds, all the wealth you get can be rewarded to you."

Li Mu looked at the three thousand Han troops and said loudly.

When the three thousand Han troops heard this, they naturally cheered.

"Break through the Xianbei army in the clouds first, and then take the property, and those who violate the order will be beheaded! Those who insult Xianbei women will be beheaded! ”

Li Mu shouted in a deep voice.

The three thousand Han Junshan shouted: "Obey the general's order!" ”

Subsequently, the 3,000 Han army set out from Heicheng!

Along the way, the westward army encountered several groups of rangers, and the rangers saw that the three thousand Han troops were all Xianbei army clothes, so they naturally did not suspect it.

When the 3,000 Han troops came to the Xianbei army garrison in Yunzhong, they saw a thousand households come forward and ask where the Han army came from and why there were only these people.

Li Mu took out the tokens of Putou and Fuluohan, and falsely claimed that he had been ordered by Putou and Fuluohan to come back to defend Yunzhong.

Li Mu also told the thousand households that Putou and Fuluohan had eliminated the Han army and were on their way south to plunder.

When the thousand households heard this, they did not doubt him, so they put the three thousand Han troops into the camp.

As soon as the 3,000 Han troops entered the camp, Li Mu stabbed the 1,000 households to death with one shot.

"Brothers, follow me to kill all the Xianbei dog thieves!"

As soon as Li Mu's words fell, he took the lead and killed the big tent of the Xianbei Army.

Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao are naturally not to be left behind, and they will kill everyone when they come out.

When Li Mu's words just fell, the 3,000 Han troops began to set fire everywhere and cut down anyone they met.

In an instant, the Xianbei army camp was on fire, and the sound of the Xianbei army ghosts crying wolves was higher than ever.

The fire took advantage of the wind, and the fire burned all the way from the Xianbei army camp to the tents of the ordinary people of the Xianbei people.

All of a sudden, I heard the cries and screams of women, children and children.

However, he said that in recent days, the vigilance of the non-returnee has been very high, and he patrols several times a night.

But just two quarters of an hour ago, the rangers came to report that there were 3,000 Xianbei troops, returning to defend the camp in the clouds.

Even, the ranger took out the tokens of Putou and Fu Luohan. Of course, the ranger and Hu Bugui didn't know that these tokens were given by Li Mu.

After listening to the ranger's report, he was naturally relieved, thinking that he could finally sleep well.

At this time, Hu Bugui woke up from his sleep, heard shouts outside, and the figure floated, and understood in his heart that the Han army had robbed the camp.

Unable to return and care about anything else, he walked out of the camp with his clothes and bare feet. As far as the eye could see, the flames were everywhere, and the Xianbei soldiers fell one after another.

Seeing that the general trend had gone, he hurriedly found a horse and fled for his life in a panic. However, after only running a dozen steps, he saw a young general in red clothes and red armor rushing towards him.

Before he could turn the horse's head, he saw a human head hanging on the tip of Li Mu's broken spear.

……

An hour later, the 3,000 Han troops annihilated 10,000 Xianbei troops.

Li Mu ordered Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao, each with 500 soldiers, to drive away those Xianbei women, children, old and weak.

Before half an hour arrived, I saw more than 60,000 women, children, old and young, wailing and screaming to the barracks.

Li Mu had already made a decision in his heart, and immediately ordered more than 38,000 Xianbei old and young to be executed.

For a time, in the Xianbei military camp, the mournful wail resounded through the sky and lasted for a long time!

Li Mu turned his back, looked up at the sky, and said silently in his heart: I'm sorry, if you want to blame, you are born in this era!
