Chapter 161: Trapped in the Nine Plains

"What the hell is going on?"

"What the Southern Xiongnu feared was the fact that the court had once again levied the Southern Xiongnu cavalry. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"Oh?" Seeing that Ding Yuan was puzzled, Ma Yi hurriedly explained: "Ten years ago, in a big battle with the Xianbei people, the court was defeated, and more than 30,000 soldiers were surrendered, but more than 10,000 of them were Southern Xiongnu cavalry. Over the years, the court has continuously recruited the Southern Huns, and the Southern Huns have suffered a lot of losses, almost to the point where they can no longer bear it. The year before last, the Western Liangqiang Rebellion, the Southern Xiongnu were requisitioned 20,000 horsemen, and they have not returned. This year, Hebei thieves rebelled, and another 6,000 horses were requisitioned, which may be just the first batch. ”

"When my brother passed by the Xiongnu land this time, he heard a lot of resentment from the Southern Huns. However, because the soldiers sent this time were all soldiers directly under the Southern Xiongnu Shan Yu Ministry, although the other ministries were resentful, they also failed to riot against the court. If the court heard that the soldiers of the Southern Xiongnu had indeed been broken by the people of Yinguan County, they would have suspected that the Southern Xiongnu were bullying each other with the old and weak. The court was worried about the war in Hebei, and inevitably ordered the Southern Xiongnu to send elite cavalry to fight again. The Southern Huns were unwilling, and after learning of this order, they would also riot, and this was the opportunity for the eldest brother to take advantage of the situation. ”

Ding Yuan's brows furrowed more and more, and he said unhappily: "The matter of causing the Southern Xiongnu rebellion is not only harmful to the court but also to me, I really don't know what opportunity there is?" ”

Ma Yi said with a smile: "The name of the elite cavalry of the Southern Huns is heard all over the world, and if there is a riot, there will inevitably be chaos in the entire state." At this time, the court used troops in Hebei and Northwest again, and the elites were all gone. When I see that the counties of the state are too stubborn and there is no outstanding person to resist, this is the time when the eldest brother is in danger. ”

The corners of Ding Yuan's mouth were tightly closed, his brows were furrowed deeply, and he said half-loudly: "There are only a thousand people under my brother's command, and if my brother has great ability, how can he suppress the rebels of more than 300,000 in the three counties of Dingxiang, Xihe, and Shangjun of the Southern Xiongnu?" ”

Ma Yi said: "This matter is easy to hear, although there are many Southern Huns, but the cause of the riot is only the court's forced self-conscription order, not other things. At most, there were only more than half of them who rioted, and it would be good to have 20,000 or 30,000 elite horsemen, at least the Southern Xiongnu alone and the Xianwang Department would never dare to cause chaos. When the eldest brother was in danger, they plundered a lot, and the anger dissipated early, and the eldest brother asked the court to cancel the conscription of the Southern Xiongnu soldiers and horses, and they would naturally disperse slowly. ”

Ding Yuan groaned: "I'm not afraid of 10,000, I'm afraid of what if." ”

Ma Yi said with a smile: "The junior brother also has thoughts about this matter, Yanmen County Yinguan County ordered Han Mingyuan to go north last year to conquer the eastern Xianbei, and he is famous. Although I was not in charge of the county at this time, I left thousands of brave people who were from Xianbei, and they even defeated 6,000 elite Hun cavalry a month ago. When the Huns heard this, they would not dare to offend Yinguan County. Yinguan County is also the main road leading to Taiyuan County and Dai County, so the war in Dingxiang County in the north should be worry-free. ”

"Taiyuan County in the east and Hedong County and Xihe County in the south are separated by Luliang Mountain, as long as the eldest brother leads the army to resist the danger and go down to the village to defend, even if the Southern Huns soldiers and horses are numerous, I am afraid they will not be able to do anything. The Shangjun in the west is adjacent to Zuo Fengyi and Beidi County, and the more than 200,000 troops of the court in Xiliang are there, and they should also have no worries. As long as the Southern Xiongnu rebellion is limited to the three counties of Xihe, Dingxiang and Shangjun, in this way, it will not take the eldest brother half of his effort, and the great credit for quelling the Southern Xiongnu rebellion will be at his fingertips. ”

Ding Yuan muttered to himself: "Is this to give up more than 60,000 people in the three counties of Dingxiang, Xihe, and Shangjun to the Southern Xiongnu?" This...... This ......"

Ma Yiyin said measuredly: "There is an old saying that there are clouds, the amount is small, the amount is not a gentleman, and the non-toxic is not a husband." Since hundreds of thousands of people were plundered by the Xianbei people ten years ago, the people of Dingxiang, Xihe, and Shangjun fled to the interior as soon as possible. The land of the three counties has long become the pasture of the Southern Xiongnu, and there are only more than 60,000 people left, even if all of them are given to the Southern Xiongnu, it will not hurt, this opportunity must not be lost. ”

Ding Yuan said unhappily: "The counties of Bingzhou are too stubborn and there is no outstanding person, but Zhang Yi is quite virtuous in the history of Bingzhou, do you know that Zhang Yi will not also know this counterinsurgency strategy?" When the time comes, we will give up our merits to others, and we will work hard in vain. ”

Ma Yi said with a smile: "This strategy has been made by the younger brother, how to grasp it and how to progress it is the eldest brother's business, and the younger brother can't do anything about it." However, nearly 60,000 people in the three counties of Dingxiang, Xihe, and Shangjun can be sold, so can't they be sold in just one and the state? ”

Ding Yuan heard this, immediately fell silent, with his many years of qualifications, loyalty and bravery, Mao Sui recommended himself to crusade against the Southern Xiongnu, and there was no need for the court to send a large army to help, it was indeed possible to be appointed as the chief general of the Southern Xiongnu Rebellion Army, and to control the soldiers and horses of all counties and counties in the state. It's just that Zhang Yi ...... Ding Yuan's somewhat old face was unpredictable for a while. In the end, however, it was the idea of ambition that prevailed......

"Brother Feng's divine shot, the younger brother is ashamed of himself, admire, admire." Han Yi said sincerely to a handsome and great man who was one foot tall, but had an even body, a fit body, great agility, and infinite strength.

After 20 days of traveling, Han Yi's army finally arrived at Jiuyuan City safely. The two guards of Jiuyuan City who greeted Han Yi, one tall and one short, both brought an inexplicable shock to Han Yi. The short one is the titular general Gao Shun, whose temperament is calm, his face is old-fashioned, his actions are meticulous, and his actions are straightforward and eye-catching, so that people can't say half of the flaws. is a serious and simple soldier, similar to Wang Dong's temperament.

The tall one named Lu Bu was radiant, handsome, and had an indescribable confidence in his gestures. Although the demeanor is slightly frivolous, it makes people feel less than half of the bad feelings. The size of the body and the movement like the wind give people an inexplicable sense of oppression. Although he is not the main general of Jiuyuan City, he is better than the main general of Jiuyuan City.

Lu Bu is brave, unlucky, extremely good at archery, and has infinite strength in his arms. Han Yi thought to himself, the 1,600 catties of stone in the Qingyi Courtyard of Luoyang City, Lu Bu was afraid that he could easily lift it, but he didn't know if he had reached the power of the overlord of 2,000 catties.

He often used a five-stone strong bow, and once shot more than 1,000 arrows in a row in a city defense battle in the past two hours, and the arrows were not missing, forcing back more than 10,000 Xianbei cavalry. He was shocked by the Xianbei people as a celestial man, and respected him as a "flying general", which was the same name as Li Guang in the former Han Dynasty, which shows its might. Jiuyuan City has been able to defend it for many years without breaking it, all because of him.

As soon as Han Yi met with the second general, he fell in love with the second general, and it didn't take long for him to become brothers with the two. Today, Lu Bu tried his shooting technique, and with one arrow, he hit the red heart of the arrow target located one hundred and fifty steps away. Screaming that he could only shoot a red heart within 110 steps, Han Yi, who pretended to be an extraordinary archer, was ashamed to speak.

Just when the people of Jiuyuan County packed up and prepared for the relocation of thousands of miles, suddenly overnight, 40,000 Xianbei Turquoise cavalry regiments surrounded Jiuyuan County. Han Yi and the others were shocked when they heard the news, and when they hurried up to the city to look, they saw that there were three thousand horsemen riding back and forth on each side of the city for miles outside the city; In addition, there are 7,000 people, who are stepping up the matter of setting up camp, and before long, four large villages will rise from the ground on all sides.

Lu Bu clapped his hands and was furious, and shouted: "Helian really has a conspiracy, fortunately, I didn't move out of the city, otherwise I would have been robbed by the Xianbei people." ”

Gao Shun shook his head and said: "Don't worry, I'm afraid that there is another reason for this matter, if I am Helian, I will not besiege the city at this time." Only when the people of Jiuyuan County relocated and lost the support of the city wall, would a large army be dispatched. ”

Lu Bu was stunned, turned his head and said, "Mingyuan, borrow your horse for a ride, and I'll go to find Helian and ask about it." ”

Lu Bu's body has grown up, and a pair of long legs are five feet long, and only the best horses that are more than seven feet tall can be adapted. And Han Yi came to ride the eight-foot-tall Xianbei Horse King this time, and Lu Bu didn't like it when he saw it. Only such a tall and good horse can exert the martial arts of his whole body.

Han Yi said with a smile: "Since Brother Feng likes it, just take it, why bother to borrow words." It's just a horse, where can I match the friendship of you and my brother. ”

Lu Bu was overjoyed, patted Han Yi on the shoulder and smiled: "Good brother, I, Lu Bu, will recognize you as a brother." With that, he lifted the halberd upside down, hung the carved bow at his waist, and strode down to the city. When he came to Han Yi's horse, he slapped hard with one arm, and the eight-foot-tall Xianbei Horse King trembled, but he persevered.

Lu Bu nodded with satisfaction, and flew on the horse, the Xianbei Horse King, who had always been a little wild, was under his crotch, but he was honest and did not dare to be inferior. Lu Bu laughed, ordered someone to open the city gate, and galloped away alone.

Han Yi saw it at the top of the city, and said to Gao Shun with a sigh: "Brother Feng Xian is invincible, but he has been trapped in Jiuyuan City for many years. If he can return to Han land safely this time, Brother Feng will definitely be able to dominate the world in Han land. ”

Gao Shun nodded and said, "I am also deeply convinced of Fengxian's skills, but Fengxian has always liked to strive and not to use wisdom. In Jiuyuan City, it doesn't hurt to be close to Xianbei. If you return to Handi, I am afraid that I will be despised by others. ”

Han Yi said with a smile: "There are many capable people in the world, but their talents are different, either they are strong or they are wise. Those who are all-round talents in civil and military affairs are often not outstanding, how can there be perfect people? Although Brother Feng has one of them, he can be invincible in the world, and he can also leave a name in history. If it's both, then is there still a place for us to mess around? ”

Gao Shun smiled and didn't say anything, just looked at Lu Bu outside the city. I saw Lu Bu's men and horses everywhere, and the Xianbei Sudden Cavalry all retreated, not daring to come forward to fight, and finally even the men and horses who were camped were scattered. When Lu Bu was about to turn around, they all gathered together again and continued the unfinished business. One advance and one retreat, which made Lu Bu angry.

In the end, Lu Bu pointed at Helian's nine-tailed Daxu and scolded angrily, and then someone came forward to negotiate with Lu Bu, and soon after, he saw Lu Bu riding his horse and retreating.
