Five thousand Han army elite cavalry were stationed in the cottage of Luozao Mountain, and more than a dozen rescued girls were sent to Zhao Yun's camp by the soldiers to be settled, including Yang Yuan and Su Shi.

Although there are only 5,000 troops, Liu Xie is now accompanied by five generals: Huang Zhong, Zhang Liao, Ma Chao, Pang De, and the female general Yan Er.

In the so-called Juyi Hall of the Thieves' Nest, Liu Xie convened a meeting of the people. ordered Xiao Luozi to hang up the map and asked Ma Chao: "Meng Qi is really bold, and he will go to exterminate Yu Fuluo without a single soldier." ”

Ma Chao stood up, saluted and said, "Your Majesty is smiling." ”

"No," Liu Xie waved his hand and said, "Meng Qi has this ability, I absolutely believe it." ”

Liu Xie motioned for him to sit down, looked at the generals and said: "Yu Fuluo is a part of the Xiongnu, although the military horses are brave and good at fighting, they are all brave and strategic, even if they unite with other tribes, they are not afraid. All I have to think about now is how to conquer him! ”

Huang Zhong said: "Your Majesty killed his son, he will definitely not surrender, and even if he surrenders, he will not surrender sincerely." ”

Zhang Liao said: "Han Sheng's words are reasonable. Moreover, this is a long journey from Fuluo, bypassing the Hetao and the grassland from Hedong, to the boundary of our Liangzhou, and it must be that the morale of the army and the people is not stable, and it is the best time for me to attack. ”

Liu Xie walked back and forth, and the generals didn't know what he was thinking, they all looked at him, waiting for him to make a decision.

After thinking for a while, Liu Xie said: "Hansheng, Wenyuan, what you both said makes sense, but do you know? In the entire Yufuluo Division, there were 50,000 troops and 800,000 people. I destroyed him, what to do with these 800,000 Huns? Accept them sinicization? ”

Huang Zhong said: "If it is not my race, its heart will be different, so it is better to kill them all." ”

"Lao Huang," Liu Xie said, "800,000, one knife, I'm afraid I can't kill it in a day, right?" Our Han family obeys the world with benevolence and virtue, how can such a cruel sofa accept the hearts of the world? ”

Zhang Liao said: "Your Majesty, in the opinion of the ministers, those who are unwilling to surrender will be killed, and those who are willing to surrender will be brought back to Luoyang and sold to the rich families in Luoyang as slaves. ”

Liu Xie shook his head: "No, no!" My Han Dynasty has abolished the slavery system since the beginning of Gaozu's founding of the country, and now it can be picked up again? ”

After thinking about it, he said: "Forget it, don't think about these things first, let's see how to ask him first." ”

Ma Chao said: "Your Majesty, it is better to follow what the minister said before, Pang De and I did not bring soldiers, broke into the Fuluo tribe, and after finding him, the result was a knife, and His Majesty's army came slowly behind, and then surrendered the rest of the army." ”

Liu Xie asked: "You two, can you do it without a soldier or a soldier?" ”

"Your Majesty," Ma Chao said, "Pang De and I both grew up in the Liangzhou area, and we are very familiar with the human geography in this area, so it is most suitable for the two of us to go!" ”

Pang De also stood up and said: "Your Majesty, the minister Pang De is willing to go with Meng Qi, not to be beheaded in Fuluo, and swear not to come back to see Your Majesty!" ”

Ma Chao and Pang De repeatedly asked to go alone, but Liu Xie had to agree, saying: "You two are going, be careful." There's plenty of time, it's not a moment, so rest well tonight and set off tomorrow morning. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

After a little more study, all the generals dispersed.

Yan Er accompanied Liu Xie on the night patrol, standing on the top of the mountain, looking at the mountain under the moonlight, Liu Xie sighed: "The great Han rivers and mountains, so many delicate, but so dilapidated, it has been three years since I ascended the throne, but the world has not been pacified, and the warlords of the Quartet are still dissatisfied." When will I be able to rule the world! ”

Yan Er said: "Your Majesty doesn't need to be anxious, Your Majesty is only twelve years old, and the coming day is long, and now our Luoyang soldiers are strong and strong, the city defense is strong, and the food is rich and the money is sufficient, and the princes dare not underestimate it. ”

"But Sister Yan'er," Liu Xie said, "I must subdue the world when I am 21 years old." ”

"Isn't that nine years left?" Yan Er smiled, "Within nine years, Your Majesty will definitely subdue the world and let all the princes in the world be obedient." ”

"Well, I hope so. Let's go, go back to the camp and sleep! ”

"Does Your Majesty want a slave to sleep?"

Liu Xie looked back at her and said, "Sister, what do you want?" I'm still a kid, okay? Every one who sleeps in his own sleep, he is not allowed to come and disturb me. ”

Yan'er smiled: "Yes, Your Majesty, Yan'er promises not to harass you." ”

The two returned to the camp to rest.

There was nothing to say all night, and the next morning, Liu Xie got up very early, gathered the generals to prepare for the march, Ma Chao and Pang De wanted to go first, and after saying goodbye, they went towards the Yufuluo Department.

Not long after Ma Chao and the two left, Liu Xie led the Han army to rise up from the village, with 5,000 elite horsemen, and marched steadily towards the place where the Fuluo Department was located.

In the area of Liangzhou, the population is sparse, there are few people on the march, crops and houses are also very scarce, the Han army is carrying dry food and drinking water, rest for a while at noon, let the horses eat grass, continue to rush in the afternoon, camp at night, burn the fire and cook, and continue to travel the next day.

After three days, seeing that he was about to arrive at the location of the Yufuluo Ministry, Liu Xie sent scouts to investigate around early, and reported that the Yufuluo Department was not far ahead, a place with abundant water and pasture.

Nearly a million civilians and 60,000 troops were stationed, mostly cavalry.

However, it was said that at noon that day, Liu Xiehan's army came to an open area and was marching, not far from the enemy's nest, and he faintly heard the sound of shouting and killing in front of him.

Liu Xie ordered the army to stop, and all the archers were ready to serve with individual fire arrows.

The so-called individual flame arrow is different from the fire arrow of the sunset crossbow.

The Sunset Crossbow is a heavy crossbow that requires multiple people to operate before it can be used, with a long range, great power and great lethality.

The arrows of the individual fire arrow are much shorter than the fire arrow used by the sunset crossbow, and can only be used with a bow, and cannot be used by the individual crossbow.

After the Great War of Tiger Pass, during the year of recuperation, Liu Xie carried out some reforms in the arms and weapons of the army.

Originally, whether the secondary weapon used a bow or a crossbow was collectively called an archer cavalry, but now it is differentiated, and those who use a bow are called archermen, and those who use crossbows are called crossbow cavalry.

Each cavalry archer will carry a flaming arrow, and the individual flaming arrow is the same as the flaming arrow structure of the Sunset Crossbow, which has a small bamboo tube tied to the shaft of the arrow, which contains gunpowder and iron pellets, and has a fuse underneath.

The archers and crossbow cavalry are mixed together, and when they are used, the archers set up the fire arrows, and the crossbow cavalry on the side lights the fuse for them, and then the archers shoot the fire arrows, and then the archers and crossbow cavalry are ready for ordinary arrows and begin to shoot at the enemy formation, the so-called "arrow rain attack".

At the same time as the rain of arrows attacked, they began to charge.
