Han Yi turned his head and asked, "Guo Zhi, I don't know where the more than 10,000 Huns who broke through Jinyang City are at this time?" ”

Guo Yi raised his head and thought for a while, and said: "After looting countless property, grain and more than 10,000 young and strong men and women of the Han people, the Huns went to Loufu County through Wolf Meng, and it seems that they intend to flee to Xihe County. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo”

Han Yi calculated: "From Jinyang to Loufu, all the way is the mountain path of Luliang Mountains, with a total of more than 300 miles. Escorting more than 10,000 people and a large amount of supplies is definitely unpleasant. The day of the destruction of the city was the seventh day of the third month, and it was the seventeenth day of March, and it was only ten days, and they traveled more than 200 miles at most. That is to say, when our army found them eight days later, they had just arrived in Gaowolf County in Xihe. ”

Guo Yi was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said: "The West River has been occupied by the Southern Xiongnu, Han Sima intends to go to the West River to intercept it, isn't he afraid that the Southern Xiongnu will attack it in a panic without knowing the situation?" ”

Han Yi said hatefully: "I'm not afraid that they will all come, but I'm afraid that they won't come." I will slaughter them all in Gaowolf County. ”

Guo Yi couldn't help but gasp and persuaded: "Han Sima, don't be restless, there are only more than 12,000 people in the state army. Although Yang Feng had 10,000 people, he was a first-time descendant, and he was afraid that he would not help Han Sima fight the Southern Xiongnu to the death. And Ding Jianyang still has the heavy responsibility of pacifying the white wave thief, but I'm afraid he won't help you. However, there were 300,000 Huns, no less than 60,000 horsemen alone, and no less than 100,000 people who could fight. This...... This...... The disparity in strength is too great. ”

Li Feng, Xue Lan, Liu He, and Gao Ya all spoke out and persuaded: "Brother Han, what Guo Zhi said is very true, our army has few soldiers, and it is better to take a long-term view of revenge." ”

Zhang Yang wiped his tears and persuaded on the side: "Mingyuan, Zhang Tingshi is also my uncle." The Southern Xiongnu killed my uncle, and my hatred for them is no less than Mingyuan. However, the power is stronger than people, and the court has no intention of crusading against the Southern Xiongnu at this time, and this revenge needs to be considered in the long run. ”

Han Yi was furious, looked around at the generals in the tent, most of them were fighting against the entire Southern Xiongnu clan, and they had palpitations. Only those parts of their own, although worried, are not afraid. Han Yi sighed secretly, in the end, it was still his own intimacy.

At this time, Guo Yi persuaded again: "Han Sima, it's not that I stopped you from going to take revenge, but that the situation is really unfavorable to me." Starting from a small place, the state passed through the rebellion of the Southern Xiongnu and the White Wave Thieves, and the counties of the four sides were broken, and there was a shortage of soldiers and horses, grain and grass. If you forcibly conquer the Southern Xiongnu, it is good to win, but if you don't win, the entire state will fall into the hands of the Southern Xiongnu. ”

"Speaking from the big picture, the elite soldiers of the court are all in Xiliang. Even the Youzhou Rebellion was pieced together for a long time, and the 6,000 Hun raiders who were transferred to the Fuluo Department had an army of 30,000 to attack Yuyang Erzhang and the Wuhuan tribe. The white wave thieves were chaotic, and even the guards in the forbidden palace were drawn out, and there were Ding Jianyang's 10,000 troops. If the state is lost, what will happen to this division? What will happen to Luoyang? Do you want the heavens to fall? ”

It is often heard that there are millions of soldiers in the Han Dynasty, but there are more than 100 counties in the Han Dynasty, and each county has about 5 to 7,000 soldiers, so it goes to 5 to 600,000 troops. There will be thousands or more troops in the hands of each state to deter the local counties, which has gone to more than 100,000 people. There are more than 10,000 people at key points along the Great Wall, such as Lelang, Liaoxi, Shanggu, Yanmen, Beidi, Wuwei and Dunhuang, which went to nearly 100,000 people. There are 200,000 standing armies in the north and south of Sili Prefecture. That's the army of a million.

However, this world has been peaceful for a long time, and at the beginning of the Yellow Turban Rebellion that spread across the country, the soldiers of various counties and counties have long been overwhelmed, and they can only defend the city. There are fewer and fewer people who can send troops to the field, and only the 200,000 troops in Sili Prefecture and the soldiers of the assassins in various states are available. However, the Yellow Turban thieves were flat, and the Xiliang thieves rebelled again, and the court had increased troops in Xiliang several times, so that Xiliang had an army of 200,000 in it. It can be said that the elite of the world is all in Xiliang, and there are few soldiers who can fight in other places.

Guo Yi's words are not unreasonable, the Southern Xiongnu were afraid of the power of the Han Dynasty for many years, and did not dare to commit forcible offenses, but only made chaos in the three counties of Xihe, Shangjun, and Dingxiang. If Han Yi went to Xihe County and aroused the rebellion of the Southern Xiongnu, the world of this Han Dynasty would be bad. You must know that the south of Xihe County is Sili Prefecture. The West River is only six or seven hundred miles away from Luoyang, and Hu Qi can reach the city of Luoyang within ten days.

Although Guo Yi's words are reasonable, but the husband's revenge is only a matter of time, and Han Yi will not let go of the Southern Huns easily. Otherwise, there will be no shame to worship Gongsun Ying, no shame to see Gongsun Chan again, and no shame to pick up the sister-in-law Wang'er who is still in the package.

Han Yi thought about it for a long time, but finally couldn't let go of the matter of revenge, stood up suddenly, glanced at the generals in the tent, and said indifferently: "Today, I, Han Yi, send troops to swear to fight against the Southern Huns, and those who are willing to accompany each other are all my brothers." In the future, we will share wealth and wealth, and we will not dare or forget until we die. Those who don't want to follow, Han Yi is not reluctant, and Han Yi will never know each other in the future. The day of sending troops can be postponed to the fifth day of the fifth month of May, and those who are willing to come to help each other will meet in Yinguan County to discuss the Southern Xiongnu. ”

After speaking, Han Yi turned around and left, and the generals under his command also followed him closely. left a few generals who were very embarrassed in their hearts.

At night, Han Yi was secretly sad in his private account, and he couldn't help but cry like rain when he thought of Gongsun Ying. Han Yi has been miserable since childhood, and his ex-wife is bad, so he finally married a good wife, and the husband and wife are harmonious and happy.

Cheng Qi brought a bowl of corn porridge, wiped his red eyes and said, "Master, you can eat something, you haven't eaten for a day, you are hungry, how will you avenge your mother." Besides, the young master is still young, and he still needs your care. ”

Han Yi nodded and said, "Well, I know, you can let it go first, I don't have an appetite for a while." How did Yang Feng reply? ”

Cheng Qi said hatefully: "How can I reply, it's not that as a criminal general, I didn't dare to easily clash with the Southern Xiongnu without the order of the court." ”

Han Yi sighed: "Without the help of others, just the troops under my name, plus the volunteers in Yinguan County, and the Xianbei hired army, there are less than 10,000 people, and I am afraid that I will not be able to deal with the Southern Huns." ”

Cheng Qi shouted: "I'm afraid of a bird, we have slaughtered nearly 100,000 Xianbei people, why not be afraid of the Southern Huns." How did the Southern Xiongnu compare to the Xianbei people in the East? It's not a bird, and it's even worse, I'm afraid he's a bird. ”

Cheng Qi said it well, but at this time, at that time, although the Xianbei people in the east were strong, they were scattered at that time, and each had its own careful thoughts. However, because of the rebellion of the Southern Huns, the ties between the various departments were very close, and it was difficult to break them individually. If an army of Han Chinese appeared in the three counties, it was possible to have a big decisive battle. With less than 10,000 troops, it is still too small.

Han Yi finally thought about it clearly, and said: "Cheng Qi, you quickly go to Changshan Country and ask my cousin to pay for the salary and borrow troops, don't necessarily borrow his 20,000 troops from the Nine Gates War against Huangfu Song." I would like to thank you with 20,000 Xianbei war horses. Also, if Changshan has enough grain, I will borrow 200,000 stone for grain and grass. ”

Cheng Qi was surprised when he heard this, and asked, "Didn't the master keep saying that you must not let others know about the relationship between my family and my cousin?" Why ...... now?"

Han Yi said: "There are no soldiers in the court, and I am eager to take revenge, and I thank him with 20,000 Xianbei war horses, which is my cover-up move." ”

Cheng Qi praised: "This is very good, even if outsiders have doubts." But because there is no evidence, it is difficult to say anything about us. Okay, master, I'll go overnight. ”

After Cheng Qi left, Han Yi thought about it, then found a book and a pen, and wrote down: Minister, and Sima Han Yi of the state army played...... There are no soldiers in the court, but the Yellow Turbans in Changshan have a lot of troops, or they can lure the thieves out of the county with heavy profits, imitating the stories of the Xianbei and Wuhuan people in the old days, and fighting for me...... The minister nodded again, and was willing to ask the court for permission.

Han Yi had just finished writing, and was about to call Yu Hua and send him to Su Gu in Luoyang, when Wei Xu asked to see him outside the tent. Han Yi didn't know what was going on, so he asked him to enter the account and tell it. After Wei Xu entered the account, he squeaked for a long time before he said: "Sima, I am very sad to see that Sima is heartbroken for the sake of Mrs. Gongsun. But the dead are gone, and so are the living. I hope Sima Duoduo takes care. ”

Han Yi thanked him, and Wei Xu said: "Which one, Sima, has a sister who is twenty-eight years old, and she is quite beautiful. Seeing that Sima is so affectionate and righteous, he is willing to give his little sister to Sima as his successor......"

The more Han Yi listened, the more frowning he became, he waved his hand and said, "Thank you General Wei Tun for your kindness, Han has no such thoughts at the moment." When Wei Xu was about to say more, Han Yi had already chased away the guests.

Early in the morning of the second day, Han Yi handed over the matter of the white wave thief to Ding Yuan and led the army back to Yinguan County. When passing through Jinyang City, I saw the city that was quite prosperous in the past, most of it was dilapidated at this time, most of the population in the city was taken captive, and the city was almost a ghost domain.

Under the guidance of Ru'er and Anova, Han Yi took his sister-in-law Han Wang to visit Gongsun Ying's grave. After Guo Yi retreated from the Southern Huns, he was buried in a quiet place, and the scenery was quite beautiful. Han Yi cried again, afraid that Gongsun Ying would be lonely, so he cut off a piece of hair and temporarily accompanied him.

Han Yi stroked the sleeping child and muttered: "Ying'er, please rest assured, after the husband avenges you, he will bring you and Wang'er back to Zhaoling, we will live in Zhaoling for a long time in the future, and we won't go anywhere, do you say okay?" The world is troublesome, how can I have so much energy alone, let's take care of our family first......"

Han Yixu chattered for a long time, and it was not until the dark night that Wang'er woke up hungry and cried, and then left this place under the persuasion of Ru'er and Anova.

As soon as he returned to Yinguan County, Han Yi sent Wang Yang to lead his troops to the Xiongnu Land to investigate the enemy's situation. He also ordered all the men and horses to practice, packed up and made all kinds of weapons, and prepared grain and grass. There were more than 30,000 sets of weapons in the treasury of Jinyang City, most of which were plundered by the Southern Huns. At this time, the Southern Huns were no worse than the Han army in terms of weapons, and they were only afraid of some difficulties in fighting with them this time.
