Huyana led 10,000 remnants of the army to return to his own territory, and now the Wuhuan tribe in Liaodong can fight less than 30,000 soldiers, Su Fuyan died, Huyana became the big leader, inheriting his brother's title of King Qiao. This looting caused an unprecedented blow to Liaodong Wuhuan, and Huyana decided to ask for help from Qiu Liju in Liaoxi Wuhuan, whose tribe had a population of more than one million and nearly 200,000 soldiers who could fight. Su Muyan and Qiu Liju have a good relationship, and they are still sworn brothers, and when they heard that Su Muyan was killed in Liaodong, they couldn't help but be furious. Huyanna's strength was not as good as that of others, so he was humble and polite, and asked Qiu Liju to send troops to avenge Su Fuyan. On the grassland, strength is respected, Qiu Liju is not a good person, plus he has always looked down on Huyanna, and intends to annex the territory of Wuhuan in Liaodong, so that his territory has expanded by nearly half. At this time, it was already October weather, gradually cold, Qiu Liju's strategist Li Zheng was a Han man, quite a reading of military books, after being robbed by Qiu Liju to Liaoxi, he found his talent and appointed him as a strategist. Li Zheng said to Qiu Liju: "The war is not going to end in a moment, the cold winter is approaching, and it may be difficult to provide food and grass." Qiu Liju laughed: "My 100,000 troops are coming to Liaodong, isn't it like a bamboo, what can Liu Ze Xiao'er do with my army?" So he didn't listen to Li Zheng's words, gathered soldiers, horses, grain and grass, and prepared to go on the expedition.

Zhao Bao, the Taishou of Liaoxi County, heard that Qiu Liju had gathered troops and horses, and Pegasus sent a message to the imperial court to ask for support. Zhao Bao is the younger brother of Zhao Zhong, but Zhao Bao is ashamed of Zhao Zhong and never interacts with Zhao Zhong. At the same time, the soldiers and horses of western Liaoning were assembled, the city was fortified, and the war was actively prepared.

Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty received Zhao Bao's recital, was shocked, and urgently recruited his ministers to ask for advice. The general He Jin was not born as a butcher and had no knowledge, so Situ Wang Yun went out of the class and said: "Qiu Liju has 100,000 soldiers and horses, and the plan is not small. Yuan Kui said: "Liaoxi, Changli, Xuansu, and Liaodong should be the whole and unified command, otherwise they will fight separately, which is not conducive to breaking the enemy. The minister of the Manchu Dynasty suddenly cast a disdainful glance at Yuan Kui, isn't this obviously trying to seize power for the old Yuan family? Zhu Jun said: "Your Majesty, the art of war, thousands of miles of attack, the general." Luoyang to Liaoxi is not thousands of miles, the division is tired and old, how can he compete with Wuhuan? Liu Ze of Liaodong is proficient in the art of war, and his corporal is elite, and he can supervise the military affairs of Liaoxi, Changli, Xuansu, and Lelang counties, and will be able to break Qiu Liju's soldiers and horses and protect the peace of the Han frontier. "Zhu Jun is a famous general of the dynasty, and his words are still very convincing. Liu Hong nodded and said, "Okay, immediately pass on the order, Liu Ze will supervise the military affairs of the counties and fight against Qiu Liju." ”

At this time, Liu Ze was in his own courtyard, leisurely playing Tai Chi, the sun in late autumn was bright and gorgeous, and it was extremely comfortable to shine on his body. Cai Wenji was a first-time wife, leaning on the door and watching her husband's slow boxing, she didn't understand, what kind of boxing is this, how to hurt the enemy? Liu Ze finished punching all the way, and he was sweating with relish, Cai Wenji ordered someone to bring it early, and the husband and wife began to eat. Shi Ah came to report, there was a business trip, Liu Ze hurriedly finished eating, and came to the county guard's mansion. In order to facilitate the exchange, the county guard mansion and Liu Ze's private residence have a gateway to communicate.

Coincidentally, it was Zhang Rang who came to announce the decree, Zhang Rang saw Liu Ze, read the holy decree, and the unique male duck laughed and said: "Congratulations to Rundong, the emperor is important, supervise the military affairs of the five counties, Rundong will definitely whip Jin and sing triumphantly." quack quack...."Liu Ze said secretly: "Step on the horse's hooves, your gold, silver and jewelry have been brought by Lao Tzu, and you can laugh, it seems that you have scavenged a lot of things." Seeing Zhang Rang's finger, he pretended to be taken aback and said, "Rang Gong, what's wrong with your finger?" Zhang Rang was suddenly embarrassed and said: "Don't mention it, I don't know where the blind thief came from, he actually broke into my house and forced me to tell the whereabouts of the vault. Liu Ze was amused in his heart, but he showed an expression of great concern on his face, and said: "Oh, Ze is eager to go to Liaodong, but he didn't know that Ranggong was forced by thieves, and he was guilty of sin, so let Ranggong wait for a while, and wait for me to arrange the soldiers and horses, and set up wine to wash the dust for Ranggong." "The reason why Zhang Rang came to Liaodong is precisely because Liu Ze was generous, and he lost so many things at home, this time in the autumn wind, he had to fight a dozen well. At the moment, he smiled and waited for Liu Ze to arrange.

Liu Ze called his subordinates to discuss together. Xi Zhicai said: "Duke Ming supervised the soldiers and horses of the five counties, Qiu Liju raised troops from Liaoxi, and the two counties of Xuansu and Lelang should not be disturbed, please give an order to the Duke of Ming to quickly mobilize the soldiers and horses of the two counties to help." Guo Jia said: "An army of 100,000 people, more than one way, should let the scouts set off quickly to find out the enemy's situation." Le Jin and Yu Ban also said that Liaoxi County and Changli County should also send messengers to and fro to facilitate unified command. Liu Ze nodded and said, "Okay, our army has 15,000 cavalry. Wen Qian, can the stirrups and horseshoes built by the ordnance battalion be complete? Le Jin said: "It's all ready." Wen Qian arranged craftsmen to quickly equip the cavalry with stirrups and nail hooves. I don't know how many cavalry the two counties of Xuansu and Lelang can draw? Their stirrups and shoes should also be prepared. "Lejin took the order." The weather is getting colder and colder, Zhicai, have the animal skins that Feng Xiao got have been made? "All the production has been completed, and it is guaranteed that everyone who goes out on the expedition can wear warm clothes and live warmly. In addition, Tadashi purchased a large number of wolf skins, tiger skins, bear skins, mink skins, etc., and made them. "Okay," Liu Ze couldn't help but perk up, fighting a war is making money, and Xi Zhi is good at internal affairs, and preparing these things properly saved Liu Ze a lot of worry. Yun Chang and Zilong each led 5,000 cavalry, and set off to Wuxian first, followed by Wen Ze and Yide with 10,000 infantry each. Zhicai and Wenqian stayed in Xiangping to supply grain and grass. Send away Gonggong Zhang, and I will lead 5,000 cavalry to go back with Fengxiao, Dian Wei, and Zhongkang. ”

Zhang Rang didn't expect Liu Ze to be so stingy this time, he only gave him a hundred jars of wine, and sent him away, the ninja was angry, thinking about how to give Liu Ze some loops and eye medicine to the court when he turned around, and turned to Luoyang listlessly.

Zang Ba has stayed in Wuwu County since the last war, and his soldiers and horses have reached 25,000 people. When Liu Ze arrived, the scouts sent came back one after another, and Zang Ba said: "According to the scout's report, Qiu Liju played a pretense of revenge for Su Fuyan, 100,000 horses, and the soldiers were divided into two routes, one was personally led by Qiu Liju, and one was led by Qiu Liju from Zi Badun, bypassing Yiwu Mountain, and coming straight to my Liaodong. Liu Ze looked at the map and asked Guo Jia: "Fengxiao, Qiu Liju is going straight to Liaodong, in your opinion, where will the troops come from?" Guo Jia stared at the map and said: "There is a wide passage between Yiwu Mountain and Montenegro, there is a large swamp between Montenegro and Wangping County, and the east of Montenegro is sparsely populated, and Qiu Liju will not want to go." "The meaning is very clear, the most likely route Qiu Liju will take is the passage between Yiwu Mountain and Montenegro." Can you find a way to lure the people of Qiu Liju and Bandun to the area between Montenegro and Wangping? "Yes. Careful planning is required. ”

Qiu Liju can be described as proud, the army was provided with food and lodging by Huyana along the way, 100,000 horses, almost ate the Huyana tribe cleanly, there is no way, the situation is not as good as people, Huyana regrets it to death. Bypassing the Yiwu Mountain, he sent someone to report, and a hundred miles ahead arrived at the boundary of Liaodong, so please take that road. Qiu Liju has been looting for many years, and he knows the terrain of Youzhou well, and said: "Rely on Yiwu Mountain to go south, rob the county seat, rest and recuperate, and then attack Xiangping."
