Abnormal movement? Qiangqu Gubo's face showed a hint of surprise, could it be that the official army wanted to attack the county seat? Thinking of this, not only Qiang Qu, but even several generals around him were excited, they had been waiting for this day for a long time.

Qiang Qu walked up to the city gate with an excited face, but what he saw was not the scene of the officials and soldiers preparing ladders and other siege utensils to attack the city on a large scale. Instead, I saw a large number of people and horses in the distance, hurrying here. Judging by the number of torches, there were 10,000 men.

"Cavalry!" Qiang Qu's eyes flickered as he stared at the approaching man and horse, and he shouted in surprise when he heard the sound of the horse's hooves hammering the ground.

Seeing that the 10,000 cavalry stopped in front of the official camp, and there was no conflict between the two sides, Qiangqu's heart continued to sink. How he hoped that the officers and troops would clash with the ten thousand cavalry. If a conflict breaks out between the two sides, Qiangqu will immediately order the Xiongnu soldiers to open the city to meet the enemy, and the 10,000 soldiers will attack on both sides and destroy the officers and troops of Zhao Yisuo who surrounded the south gate.

As long as they can break through the blockade of the official army, the Qiangqu headquarters can escape from Guangning County, and the other three officers and troops will not be able to confront the Qiangqu.

However, seeing that the 10,000 cavalry were merged into the official camp after a short separation, Zhao Yi's strength increased greatly. There is a good saying, there are 10,000 people, and there is no boundary. With the addition of 10,000 cavalry, the strength of the battalion has surged, and the battalion has suddenly doubled.

Seeing this situation, his soldiers and subordinates hurriedly asked Qiang Qu: "Leader, now that the officers and troops have increased, how should our department respond?" ”

Without the increase in the number of troops in the official army, the Qiangqu headquarters could not break through the encirclement of the officers and troops, and now the strength of the officers and troops has increased greatly, and their strength is even more powerful. If Qiangqu launches another offensive attack, the casualties of the soldiers will only be greater.

"Defend it!" Now Qiangqu has only this way, the surge of 10,000 soldiers of the official army camp, the formation is the same as before, Qiangqu is glad that the official army did not attack the city, but also hates Zhao Yi even more. Zhao Yi wanted to trap himself alive, rather than being killed by Zhao Yi without the power of a chicken in the future, it was better to fight with Zhao Yi to break the net.

Qiang Qu, who returned to the palace, paced back and forth in the hall, and finally slowly knelt on the couch, secretly saying that he only saw the Yi tribe on the outskirts of Youzhou, but ignored an important issue. Seeing 10,000 soldiers reinforcing Zhao Yi today, Qiang Qu had a flash of inspiration in his heart, and thought of a question that he had never thought about.

That's right, he has the Yi tribe on the periphery, but Zhao Yi has the court officials and soldiers of the Han Dynasty. Yi tribes such as Kebineng and Suli are not on the same level as themselves, but as long as the emperor of the Han Dynasty gives an order, the officials and soldiers of the court can share the same hatred and hatred and unite with the outside world.

Even if wars broke out in various parts of the border of Youzhou, Zhao Yi did not panic at all, because he had the support of the imperial court behind him.

If the officers and troops of all ministries enter Youzhou, in the face of Youzhou, which has hundreds of thousands of officers and troops, the Yi people outside the country will dare to make abnormal moves. Qiangqu thought about it and re-wrote a letter, detailing the advantages of the official army, hoping that Kebi and Su Li could get rid of their selfishness, and join forces with their own troops to attack Youzhou and lay down this great river and mountain.

The general who took the letter raised his eyes to look at Qiang Qu's gloomy face, and asked tentatively: "Leader, if the superiority of the generals and the army is revealed, will Kebineng and the others throw a mouse trap and dare not invade Youzhou?" ”

The general's words made Qiang Qu's gloomy face even more gloomy, and the general took the letter in his hand, and the thoughts in his heart turned. This general is right, if the advantages of the official army are said, Kebineng and others may not dare to invade Youzhou. At this time, they have no grudges with the officials and soldiers of Youzhou, and they can stay out of the matter. They already know that Youzhou is a hot potato, why do they still touch it.

However, Kebineng and other tribes have their own exploration horses in Youzhou, and the mobilization of troops and horses in Youzhou must not be hidden from their spies. Even if he didn't tell the matter, Kebineng and the others would still know. If you wait until Kebi can probe the horse to report the news, I am afraid that by then the official army has already been formed, Youzhou has become a monolith, and his own troops will die even worse.

Qiang Qu thought about it and opened the letter, and added, "If the two leaders want to carve up Youzhou, this is the best time, if the official army has been formed, your department will have no chance." After adding this sentence, the Qiangqu command department will send this letter out quickly.

Qiangqu had already put the decision on this matter in the hands of Kebineng and Suli, but he did not put his hope on Kebineng and others, after the letter was sent again, Qiangqu ordered the generals to select strong men from the Xiongnu soldiers as the vanguard of the attack.

At this time, the official army camp did not have the tense atmosphere in Guangning City, and Zhao Yi was in the military tent to greet Zhu Jun who led the army. Zhu Jun had already scattered his soldiers all over Youzhou according to Zhao Yi's request, and he brought 10,000 elite cavalry from the Jizhou Prefecture to Guangning County to help Zhao Yi.

Zhao Yi and Zhu Jun met with old friends, and there were a lot of words, Zhu Jun admired Zhao Yi very much, Zhao Yi served as the pastor of Youzhou, not only managed Youzhou in an orderly manner, but also made such a big thing in such a short period of time. Zhu Jun is really ashamed.

"Bolai's move can be said to have broken the balance of the border of Youzhou, if the Yi tribes of various tribes invade Youzhou, with the strength of your and my two states alone, I am afraid that it will be difficult to resist." Zhu Jun said with some concern, the combined strength of the Jizhou Mansion Ya Garrison and Youzhou officials and troops has reached 100,000, but the overseas Yi tribe has been fighting for many years, and the combat power is not trivial, in the face of the attack of one or two tribes, the official army can still hold on, but if all the Yi tribes outside Youzhou invade Youzhou, it will be troublesome.

In Zhu Jun's view, although Zhao Yi surrounded the 50,000 troops of Qiangqu and deterred the various departments outside Youzhou, it was also equivalent to giving the Yi people a good opportunity.

Zhao Yi didn't care, he still pushed the cup with Zhu Jun as usual, and said: "Although the combat power of the Yi clan's soldiers and horses is not trivial, it is not monolithic. It has been nearly half a month since our officers and troops besieged the Qiang Canal, and the outside Yi people are afraid that they have already received the news. If you want to attack Youzhou, I'm afraid you will attack it long ago. The reason why they waited until now, I guess they are waiting for an opportunity, waiting for our officers and troops and the Qiangqu department to lose both, and then their opportunity will come. I have reported this to the imperial court, and asked the imperial court to send a large army to help. This is a good opportunity to make a name for yourself, and the court will definitely accept it. ”

Zhu Jun nodded, and secretly said that Zhao Yi's actions were really well thought out, if the foreign tribes had not moved, and the soldiers of the official army had already come to Youzhou, they would never have a chance again. From this point of view, the defeat of the Qiangqu Department is a foregone conclusion.

Just when Zhao Yi and Zhu Jun were having a good conversation, Tai Shici came in to report that the secret matter in the army was not hidden from Zhu Jun, but directly said: "My lord, the Hun spy is dead." ”

The Huns were caught Seth, because the injuries on his body were extremely serious, Zhao Yi did not ask after dealing with the injuries, but wanted him to recuperate for one night, and then ask him what happened when he left Guangning County after stabilizing his condition.

Now that he heard the news that Tai Shici said that the soldier died, Zhao Yi's eyebrows stirred: "What is going on?" ”

Tai Shi Ci told the matter in detail, and under Zhao Yi's treatment, Naset was out of danger. When he woke up once, Tai Shici didn't ask questions to stimulate him, but ordered the soldiers to take care of him. Tai Shi Ci felt that this person might have extremely important information on him, so he valued Seth very much.

I wanted to wait for Seth's injuries to stabilize before telling Zhao Yi, but I didn't expect that Tai Shi Ci had just turned around and walked out of the camp tent, and there was an exclamation of soldiers behind him.

"The soldier who took care of him has been escorted out of the tent, please send it down." Tai Shi Ci bowed and said.

The angle of the arrows on Seth's body was tricky, his condition was not stable, and Zhao Yi did not dare to take the arrows easily. I wanted to wait until my injuries stabilized before taking the arrow, but I didn't expect that Seth would pull out the arrow and kill himself.

Now that everyone is dead, what is the use of punishing the soldiers, and this mistake is not in the guarding soldiers, if the wounded have the intention of dying, even if the soldiers take care of them day and night, the wounded will still find free time. There are many ways to commit suicide, and a single suicide by biting your tongue can be overwhelming. Therefore, Zhao Yi did not punish the soldiers, but ordered Tai Shici to release them. At the same time, he said: "Although I didn't interrogate the man, I can guess the purpose of the man." At this time, the Qiangqu Department was short of grain and grass and morale, and several attacks were unsuccessful, which made the army's morale turbulent. Qiangqu must have wanted to unite other tribes, so internal and external attacks, killing the official army and attacking Youzhou. Zhao Yi slowly walked to the tent and stared at the flickering torches on the gate of Guangning County, "What I really care about is who Qiangqu contacted. ”

After encircling the Qiang Canal in Guangning County, Zhao Yi had already ordered the whole county city of Youzhou to be on guard, even if there was an invasion of the Yi tribe, with the official army of the county town, it would not be a problem to resist for more than ten days, and this time was enough for Zhu Jun's Jizhou soldiers and horses to rush to reinforcements.

Zhao Yi unfolded the map of Youzhou, compared the distribution and strength of the Yi people, and discussed with Zhu Jun the strategy of defending against the enemy. The two had just finalized the defense of a few places when they were interrupted by the shouts of the soldiers at the camp gate, who hurriedly walked into the military tent: "My lord, there is a large group of men and horses approaching me again!" ”

"Oh?" Zhao Yi's eyes turned, put down the brush and before Zhu Jun and the others came to the camp gate, they saw a large area of firelight flashing at the junction of heaven and earth in the east, and the firelight flashed extremely fast.

Tai Shi Ci had already ordered the officers and soldiers to prepare for battle, this cavalry marched extremely fast, and in less than a quarter of an hour, it was less than three miles away from the official army camp, and the whistling torches blown by the wind reflected the faces of the cavalry were even more hideous.

The cavalry marched closer and closer, and the solemn look on Zhao Yi's face slowly turned into a smile, and it was none other than Wen Qin's third brother, Batu.

Batu brought the news of the difficult building to Zhao Yi, and also brought 10,000 Wuhuan soldiers, Zhao Yi was very happy about Batu's arrival, because now is the time to employ people.

Zhao Yi pointed to the map, and did not be polite to Batu, and said directly: "Trouble the third brother to bring your soldiers to this place." ”
