56. Teeth and claws

However, since coming to Xinghan, Wang Bo has greatly improved the status and treatment of handicraftsmen according to the cognition of his previous life, and adopted a large-scale assembly line production model, although it is far from the mechanized application of the previous life, but this is far beyond the ideas of the times, but it has greatly stimulated the enthusiasm of producers, and the productivity is very different from before.

The extreme lack of population is also a very nerve-wracking thing, except for the scattered Xianbei people in the entire cloud, most of the places are in a state of vast and sparsely populated. Although Xinghancheng has always tried its best to encourage and recruit people, except for the exiles who have lost their living conditions in Bingzhou due to the cooperation of Ding Yuan, they have been sent into Xinghancheng in an organized manner, but the progress in other places has been slow, and occasionally some enthusiastic children have rushed to Xinghan, and other people who have some means of survival would rather stay in place and suffer than move to Xinghancheng. The idea that the Han people living in one place and keeping one place has been deeply ingrained, and it will not change until it is absolutely necessary.

Especially like Youzhou Zhuo County, Shanggu and other large counties with large populations, Liu Yu, the last assassin Liu Yu was benevolent and kind to the Hu people, and had a high prestige among the Hu people outside the Saiwai, so for most of the previous time, the Hu and Han people in Youzhou kept peace, and even the powerful Xianbei people were relatively peaceful and self-contained, especially after the death of Tanshi Huai, they fell into civil strife and were unable to invade the south, and only a few participated in the plundering of Yanmen, Liaoxi and other places. It will hardly invade the neighboring counties of Shanggu and Yuyang, so the Han people in these places live relatively peacefully, and it is reasonable that they are reluctant to go to Xinghan.

Although since Liu Yu was transferred to the post of Ganling Minister of Qinghe State, his successor has been mediocre and incompetent, and the situation in Youzhou has deteriorated, except for the jealous and hateful Gongsun Zhan, who often fights with Hu Qi, most of the secluded realm has not deteriorated to the point of being out of control. Wang Bo was also out of his reach for this, so he had to tame the Xianbei people while waiting for the times to change.

A big battle in the clouds, the court rejoiced, and several parties benefited. A month later, after Ding Yuan, Wang Yun and other people loyal to the Han family, after several rounds of maneuvers with eunuchs, relatives, scholars and other forces in the court, the old Emperor Ling of Han finally issued an order to reward the meritorious ministers who recovered the clouds.

Ding Yuan, who led the troops to help, was officially appointed as a cavalry captain, and was appointed as the main commander by Ding Yuan, stationed in Hanoi to prevent white waves.

And Wang Bo, who contributed the most, was also promoted again, from the Xinghan County Order to the Xinghan Zhonglang General, all of whom were set to guard Xiangjun. Yang Feng was also named lieutenant of Lieutenant Yun. Then there was a bunch of blank appointment letters for official positions such as lieutenants and military commanders, which were handed over to Wang Bo to dispose of by himself.

The eunuch who didn't want to see Wang Bo once again threw the holy decree in the Bingzhou Assassin History Department, and went back to Luoyang to resume his life, and left the sincere Ding Yuan there with a wry smile and pondered: How to go to Xinghan City to announce the decree and reward? You can't just take the holy decree and a few tattered official robes, right? That would make Wang Bo laugh.

…………

Time flies by in a hurry, and before you know it, the late autumn has come to an end, and months of vigorous construction have completely changed the appearance of Yunzhong County: patches of farmland are connected vertically and horizontally; Waterwheels are rising from the ground... The subservient Xianbei people are also being forced to change the customs of generations. But when winter comes, there is still plenty of food and a safe and carefree life in the tribes, so that the weathered faces of the old and weak women and children really show a peaceful smile. No more having to pity your beloved horses to be slaughtered as food, and no more worrying about men and sons risking their lives to loot and kill ..... for food.

The slightly thin strength of the Xinghan army has also been greatly enhanced. The former reserve army was baptized by the battlefield and almost all of them were organized into official soldiers. And now the reserve army is no longer composed of Han people, yellow-eyed Xianbei people; Huns with broad cheekbones; The four different Karasuma people are mixed in, making the Xinghan reserve army look more like a ragtag army, but only if they have actually fought will they know their toughness.

Considerable progress has also been made in other areas, such as the armoury workshops and breeding farms, and other munitions departments have expanded considerably, and the war potential has been further enhanced. It can be said that if a war on the scale of the Reconquista in the clouds is launched now, it used to take more than a month to prepare, but now it takes less than half the time.

Xinghan Academy, Xinghan Medical Center...... The cold wind could not stop the enthusiasm of thousands of Xinghan people to build their homes, and under the rule of the Xinghan army, everywhere was changing with each passing day and a thriving scene.

However, the rest of the northern frontier of the Han Dynasty was overcast at this time, shrouded in gloomy clouds.

Since entering the early winter, countless news of the Saiwaihu tribe's armament and horses and ready to move have gathered in front of the county guards at all levels and the assassination table, and then reported it level by level until it reached the heavens, but under the light of the court bosses, Emperor Han Ling, who had no longer heard the bad news, smiled, and waved his pen: The disease of ringworm scabies is not to worry! Then continue to immerse yourself in singing and dancing.

Wang Bo already knew this, but he was also out of reach and powerless. After all, the current Xinghan army is still relatively weak, and the clouds that have just recovered involve most of the energy, the Hu people in Wuyuan, Shuofang and other places are still eyeing the tiger, although the Southern Huns have a deferential attitude, but if the Xinghan army has occasional setbacks, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no dissenting ambitions.

Moreover, according to Wang Bo's recollection, the number of Hu people invading the Han border this time has far exceeded the past, not only the state has suffered a catastrophe, but even some counties such as Youzhou and Jizhou, which have been stable for decades, have not been spared. There are so many Hulu, the 10,000 people of the Xinghan Army are not enough to stuff people's teeth, let alone rescue the Han people and kill Hulu.

This Han catastrophe finally became an inevitable reality after dozens of days. The Hu tribe entrenched outside the plug seemed to have been discussed in advance, and they went south one after another, not only the Xianbei people in previous years, but now even Karasuma and the large and small miscellaneous tribes are also involved on a large scale.

Although the garrison officials of the various counties also made a lot of preparations when they heard the news of Hu, they were like lambs waiting to be slaughtered in front of the raging tide and the Hu cavalry who were prancing horses and raising swords, and they had no choice but to shrink and tremble in the forts and forts, and watched a large number of Han people wailing and struggling under the hooves of the Hulu horses......

Especially in Youzhou, which bore the brunt of the attack, the old assassin Liu Yu was constantly armed and only benevolent, and the defects of Hu Zhizhi were finally fully revealed, and the counties encountered large-scale Hu Lu invasions, and the Hu dog, who was a little docile on weekdays, showed his hideous minions, and the unprepared people suffered from ......it, and it was as strong as Gongsun Zhan, who regarded the Hu people as the enemy of life and death, and killed Hu like slaughtering pigs and dogs, and Gongsun Zhan, who could only temporarily avoid his front.

After the initial temptation, the various tribes of the Hu tribe gradually evolved into an army of beasts that burned and killed and plundered, galloping through the northern frontier of the Han Dynasty, as if entering a no-man's land, where they passed, the young and strong killed those who dared to resist, and the rest were organized into coolies; Almost all of the old and weak women and children were killed, except for a few young women who were slightly more attractive for their sexual pleasure.

Like a snowball, the large and small raiding teams became larger and larger, and swept south towards Guangyang and Zhuojun. Later, even the counties such as Changshan and Hejian in the deep Hebei Province also entered a lot of uninteresting Hu Qi.

In Yanmen Pass, the fortress that is renovated every year but is becoming more and more dilapidated, although there is a brave general Zhang Liao stationed, but the lion leads the sheep, how can he do it over a group of howling wolves? There was no way to stop a large number of Hu cavalry from venting as if they were attacking, and they broke through in a few days, and tens of thousands of Xianbei cavalry drove straight into the state. Among them, the Fuluo Han tribe, who escaped from the clouds and had no fixed residence, faced the powerful Xinghan army like a lost dog, but was not ambiguous about other Han people at all, and heard that Lu Bu was transferred, he was even more unscrupulous, venting all his anger here.

There are also a lot of Hu cavalry who don't know whether they are alive or dead to come to Xinghan City, and before they get close to Yuhu Pass, they are killed by the Xinghan army who are holding back their stomachs......

This sudden, and it can also be said to be a long-planned misfortune, became out of control from the very beginning under the casual eyes of the Han court and the lack of preparation of the officials in various frontiers. The Hu riders who tasted the sweetness could no longer curb the greed and cruelty in their hearts, and more and more tribes participated in the tide of raiding in the south, and even the Hu tribes who had always maintained friendship with the Han people also joined in with red eyes, and some tribes even dispatched all the young and strong, leaving only the old and weak women and children to take care of the house......

The raging Hu cavalry has brought profound disasters to the people of the Han Dynasty, You, and Hebei Prefectures, and has been several times worse than the disaster of the Yellow Turbans. And Hu Lu swept away the essence of the place, took away everything that could be taken away, and razed to the ground if he couldn't take away.

The tragedy continued to be staged over time, during which the Hawkeye Guard, who was secretly lurking in Zhen's and Wang's liquor stores in various places, continued to gather these situations in Xinghan City; Wang Bo even received an assassination order from Ding Yuan from the Southern Xiongnu: asking the Xinghan army to intercept the back road of the Hu cavalry besieging Yanmen Pass to relieve the pressure on the military and civilians of the state. Of course, the wording is quite euphemistic, after all, Wang Bo is nominally controlled by him, but in fact he cannot be regarded as his direct subordinate.

The call for the soldiers and civilians in Xinghan City to kill Hu is getting higher and higher, and the generals of Xinghan have also asked Wang Bo to fight in person several times, asking to go out of the Yuhu Pass to kill Hu Gou, all of whom are from the bottom of the people, of course, they understand and sympathize with the suffering of the people the most......

Wang Bo did not allow any of them, but only told the generals to strictly train the soldiers under their command, and kept sending scouts to closely monitor the changes in the direction of Pingcheng.

It lasted for nearly dozens of days, and the large-scale southward Hu cavalry in the Pingcheng Valley became sparse and sparse, and was replaced by the frantic figure of the Hu dogs who returned north with trophies.

Every Hugou laughed so unscrupulously that they could hear it from afar, and it was obvious that the harvest of this trip south was unexpected for them. The hair, which had not been washed for many days, was thrown at the back of his head like a big weed, and it was impossible to see that there was still a neatly combed pigtail ...... when he used to pursue the girl, and everything looked so hateful!

Occasionally, when they met the same kind of people who later went south, the bull's eyes, which were already so beautiful that they narrowed into a slit, suddenly came to their senses, and while laughing, they showed them the fruits of their labor. And so, the roaring of horses and the wave of whips aroused a burst of helpless screams and panicked commotion in the crowd of captives.

Countless ragged and unkempt Han Chinese, connected by ropes, swayed and supported by staggering steps, supporting their crumbling bodies, driven by the howling of dogs and horsewhips, in the ice and snow, in the cold wind howling. Men and women, tall, short, fat and thin, although the number of people is several times more than the escorted dogs, but they do not have the courage to resist at all. Most of those who were weak or fell down lost their footing and lost their feet, and were greeted by blood-dripping scimitars or merciless horses' hooves......

In the middle of the captives was a transport team composed of countless deer carts, loads and other loads, and the young and strong coolies of the Han people were gritting their teeth and personally sending home all kinds ......of food and materials that they relied on for survival, and the thought made people feel that the future was endless and hopeless.

Even if there is boundless hatred and monstrous anger in their hearts, what can the defenseless people change in the face of the hideous and ferocious dogs? You can only blame this damn God! Only the thought of not wanting to die can sustain the current .......

The Xinghan army scouts lurking around watched all this, thinking about their own suffering experiences, and couldn't help but blood bump upwards and blur their eyes... After a long time, holding back his anger, Pegasus went to Xinghan City to report the news.

When Wang Bo received several such returns, he finally knew that the time had come for the Xinghan army to attack. In this catastrophe that swept through the northern frontier of the Han Dynasty, tens of thousands of Xinghan children had accumulated enough anger, and it was time to vent their anger.

Kill the dogs! Save the people! This is the only thought in the hearts of the soldiers who received Wang Bo's military order at this time.

Most of the Green Wolf Army was transferred back from the clouds that had settled down, plus the cavalry army that had been supplemented by months of rigorous training, as well as the reserve army and the baggage team, Wang Bo even included thousands of Hannu camp cavalry troops. Tens of thousands of soldiers, under the leadership of the wolf guards, went out of the valley outside the Yuhu Pass on the same day, and killed the Hu chiefs who were rushing to the tribe with joy and dreaming of the Spring and Autumn Festival. Wang Bo personally led more than 10,000 Red Tiger troops, and camped at the mouth of the valley outside Yuhu Pass with a coolie battalion, which was far away from Pingcheng, which was dozens of miles away.

Zhou Cang, Pei Yuanshao, Zhang Baiqi, Ping Han, and Li Damu's wolf owl guards led all the way south to the direction of Mayi and Yanmen Pass.

Huang Long, Liu Shi, Wu Huan, Jiang Qi, Xia Zhao, Lu Kuang, and Lu Xiang's wolf owl guard team led all the way to the direction of Laoxian and Juyang.

Du Yuan, Yu Poison, Bai Huan, Zuo Zhangba, Sun Qing, and Wang Dang's wolf owl guard team led all the way north to the direction of Pingcheng.

The three iron horsemen shot at three angry and powerful arrows, stepped onto the vast wasteland between Pingcheng and Yanmen, and pierced the Hulu group as far as they could see, and the anger that they had endured for a long time was fully vented at this moment.

As far as the eye could see, whether it was the Hu cavalry who escorted the booty back to the north, or some Hu tribes who were accustomed to staying here, they were all swept away. It was also after the recovery of Yunzhong that Wang Bo ordered among the military and civilians to avoid abusing the subjugated Hu people, and deliberately downplayed the hatred between the Han and the Hu people, otherwise these red-eyed soldiers would not let go even the old and weak women and children.

A large number of convoys followed, but they continued to transport the Han people rescued by the cavalry in front of them, as well as the countless materials captured, back to the camp of the Xinghan Red Tiger Army, and then sent by the coolie battalion to Yuhu Pass.

A few days ago, Hu Qi, who was still dancing with his teeth and claws, swept away the secluded and secluded, at this time, under the impact of the Xinghan Green Wolf Army, he had no power to resist, and all of them fell under the iron hooves and groaned, as if they were slaughtering the Han people, but I don't know if they figured out the eternal truth of "evil has evil retribution" before they died.

This situation lasted for more than ten days, and the scattered Hu cavalry finally realized that the situation was not good, and they were still in the Han Realm, and the leaders of the large and small tribes, who were excited about their bandits, were all surprised after receiving the cry of the escaped fish: When they came, they didn't encounter the blocking of the Xinghan army? What kind of crazy thing is this smoking? Although there are not many warriors sent to escort the spoils of war to the tribes, so many tribes send their own spoils, and the number is considerable, right? Even if they are defeated, they won't come back, right? Let's kill them all?

The surprise was followed by a furious outrage: Is this going to be black and black? It's good to see the good and don't die! It's good that we didn't go to your place to grab it, so you might as well come and pick up the tiger's whiskers? Is it easy for Lao Tzu to grab something and a woman tiringly? It's been in the hands of the Xinghan Army for a long time? No way! Absolutely not!
