The county guard of Wuyuan County is not far from the county government of Jiuyuan County, of course, it is said to be a mansion, but it is actually a slightly larger courtyard, which is not as good as his own mansion in Li Yi's eyes and is quite poor.

"Wen Xiu, Bozhong!" As soon as Li Yan entered the door with the three of them, he greeted him with a smile. Wen Xiu is the character of the county guard Guo Hong, and Bozhong is the character of the county magistrate Chen Gu. These two have served in Jiuyuan for many years, and they are also familiar with Li Yan. By the way, in this era, the prefects at the county level were divided into prefectural commanders and prefectural magistrates, with 10,000 people as the boundary, and those above as prefectural magistrates and those below as prefectural magistrates.

Li Yi followed the sound and saw two men about 3 or 40 years old, sitting in the top position chatting about something. Judging from their expressions alone, they don't seem to be as confident as Li Yan showed in this attack by the Hu people.

"Yoshi, you're finally here, sit down, sit down!" Guo Hong and Chen Gu were overjoyed when they saw Li Yan coming, and hurriedly greeted them. As soon as they finished speaking, the two of them saw Li Yi and the others, "Yichang, why did you bring Ayi and them too?" ”

"The kid has seen the county keeper and the county magistrate." Li Yi said respectfully.

"Ha, isn't this Ayi wanting to see the war~" Li Yan smiled when he heard this, "Although he is still young, he is completely different from other children, I think it is good to let him see it as soon as possible." In the end, Li Yan's expression became very helpless.

Is it good for children to see war early? I'm afraid it's only in a few places, such as Bingzhou, Youzhou, and Liangzhou, right? After all, here, because of the proximity to the border, and the Hu people who were dependent on the Han Dynasty living in the state, compared to those states and counties in the interior, the safety factor does not know how low it is.

Incidents of bloody death due to clashes with the Hu people occur almost every day, and every September the Hu people come to plunder in order to prepare food and grass for the winter. In this case, the folk customs of Bingzhou are extremely strong, which is also the reason why Li Yan's status here is so high.

Hearing this, Guo Hong and Chen Gu glanced at each other, and immediately smiled bitterly, "Yichang, you may not know that this time the Hu people suddenly came, it was not a small group of cavalry like before, according to the return of the horses, the number of enemies was at least 3, 4,000 people. And not only Wuyuan County, but also a large number of Hu cavalry were found outside Yunzhong, Shuofang, and Yanmen. Guo Hong's tone was full of doubts and helplessness.

"What? Could it be that the sandalwood is ready to start a war?! Hearing this, Li Yan immediately stood up and asked in shock. 3. 4,000 cavalry, that's not a small number.

At this time, under the suppression and differentiation of Huo Qu's illness in the past and the emperors of the Han Dynasty in the future, the Xiongnu had completely lost the courage of the past. Not only was it divided into the Northern and Southern Xiongnu, but the Southern Xiongnu were also completely dependent on the Han Dynasty and the Northern Xiongnu were enemies. Most of the Northern Xiongnu also fled to West Asia, and they did not dare to return to the east all the way to the west.

Since then, the northern grasslands have completely fallen into an era when many tribes compete with each other. And this situation made the Han people once think that the north would be completely peaceful from now on, but unfortunately, this situation did not last long, and another Xianbei appeared. Under the leadership of Tan Shihuai, the leader of the Xianbei tribe, Ding Ling was rejected in the north, Fuyu in the east, and Wusun in the west, and soon occupied the homeland of the Xiongnu, once again reigning on the prairie, and instead of the Xiongnu threatened the border of the Han Dynasty.

"Who knows? This matter has been reported to the imperial court, but even if the imperial court makes any moves, I am afraid it will have to wait for a few months. Guo Hong shook his head and sighed, obviously very dissatisfied with the efficiency of the imperial court in some things.

"What about General Huangfu?" Hearing this, Li Yan asked again.

"General Huangfu's side has completed the army, and he can go out at any time. However, this time the Hu people are strong, and I am afraid it is difficult for us to expect too much from General Huangfu's reinforcements. Guo Hong shook his head and sighed.

"Do the Hu people come often?" At this time, a childish voice suddenly sounded, which startled the three of them at the same time, and after reacting, they realized that it was Li Yi who was asking.

"Yes, if there are no accidents, every September is the day when the Hu people go south. Because after the winter, those Hu people lack food and grass for people and horses to spend the winter, so they will basically take advantage of our harvest to go south to plunder. Guo Hong explained with a smile.

He likes Li Yi very much, not only because Li Yi looks cute, but also because Li Yi is talented and intelligent, and he is different from the maturity of ordinary children.

"I see." Li Yi nodded his head when he heard this, and didn't say anything more. Seeing this, Guo Hong continued to discuss with Chen Gu and Li Yan about guarding against the Hu people. They didn't avoid Li Yi, and there was no need. Although Li Yi was talented and intelligent, they didn't think that Li Yi could understand this.

And can Li Yi understand? Naturally, I can understand it, after all, there is no technical jargon in what they are talking about, but it is just some words about how many troops need to be deployed here, and where the Hu people must not be allowed to break through. It's just that even if he understands, Li Yi doesn't have any way.

It's not that I'm worried about being too prominent and attracting suspicion and malice, but there's really nothing I can do. After all, Li Yi was just an ordinary person in his previous life, and he played a lot of war games, but where can the real war be simulated by the game? In particular, Li Yi is not familiar with the geography of Bingzhou at all, and if he talks nonsense, isn't he asking for trouble for himself?

In the following days, Li Yan basically did not stay at home, although he was not an officer and soldier, but as a strong man in Jiuyuan County, at this time, he obviously needed to lead his subordinates to help resist the Hu people.

What is Haoqiang? The biggest difference between him and the landlord is that he has armed forces, and the matter of teaching his subordinates to practice martial arts is not something that only appeared in Li Yan's generation. In fact, the reason why Li Yan is so valued by the county guard Guo Hong and others is that in addition to his own martial arts, what is more important is the combat effectiveness of his subordinates. Generations have been trained since childhood, the worst man, and also a good archer.

It's just that all this has nothing to do with Li Yi, although he is very worried about his father, the only thing he can do is to stay at home and practice martial arts with Lu Bu and others. Don't let Li Yan be distracted and take care of them, this is the only place Li Yi and they can help Li Yan now.

However, strictly speaking, the fact that the Hu people went south still had a certain impact on Li Yi, such as he picked up the books again. This time, he clearly realized that the only advantage he had with children of the same age was just the soul of an adult, if he didn't start studying hard now and making progress every day, how could he dominate the world with martial arts alone?

"Abu, Ashun, you should also read more books." Li Yi said to Lu Bu and Gao Shun, although the two of them looked bitter when they heard this, they still nodded honestly. Li Yan is not at home, Li Yi is their master.
