"Zilong, how is the situation now? Is there any news of Gongsun Zhan? As soon as he arrived in Wangping County, Ye Chen called Zhao Yun, Guo Jia and Sun Gan.

"Second brother, the day before yesterday, Gongsun Chan sent 3,000 men and horses to support Liu Yu, and then there was no news, and now I haven't contacted Gongsun Chan." Ye Chen had already sent someone to contact Gongsun Zhan, but Gongsun Zhan was like missing and couldn't be found at all.

Ye Chen knew that Gongsun Chan must be preparing and would definitely take the initiative to attack, if they could get in touch and the two of them worked together, then the effect would be even better.

But Gongsun Chan didn't think about Ye Chen at the beginning, because he thought that Ye Chen only needed to be optimistic about the Wuhuan people and not let Wuhuan go south.

Wuhuan is a strategy of Ye Chen, and it is also the existence of tactical deception, so it is impossible for Ye Chen to announce their relationship, and he is also helpless for such a result.

"Is there any news of the Huns?"

"The news that just came out today is that the Xiongnu are powerful, with at least 50,000 people, and they have begun to attack Youbeiping all the way. And there are only less than 5,000 county soldiers in Youbeiping, and I am afraid it will be difficult to resist. Zhao Yun said this, paused for a moment, and then continued.

"In addition, we have also found Hun spies in the north, and they have been roaming around us, I am afraid that the comers are not good."

Zhao Yun simply told him what he knew, which was undoubtedly not good news.

In particular, the figure of the Xiongnu appeared in the north of Wangping County, although Wangping County is a distance from the grassland, there are hundreds of miles, but if the Xiongnu cavalry wants to attack, it can be reached in two or three days.

"Gongyou, you immediately assign half of the fortification team to build defenses on the periphery, and you can dig a few more trenches first. In addition, the construction of the city could not be left behind, and the masses were mobilized to build the city overnight. ”

Now no one can say when the Huns will be able to hit here, from Youbeiping to here, if there is no block, then it is estimated that it can be reached in half a month, if there is a blockage from himself and Gongsun Zhan, even if it can be hit, it will be at least three months later.

In three months, at least a few meters of the city wall can be built, plus the original city wall, there are two city walls, the defense is greatly strengthened, and when the time comes, relying on the city wall, it can still compete with the Huns.

Ye Chen asked people to start actively arranging defenses, and if they really wanted to fight here, they wouldn't be unprepared at all.

At the same time, Ye Chen also intends to act actively, and must not be so passive.

"Fengxiao, you and Zilong stay to defend this place. In addition, I will send someone to let Yun Chang also go out with me, and I will set off in three days, otherwise the Huns will soon be in the city. ”

Taking the initiative to attack is the best defense, and the worst can also buy more time here, and at the same time let Guan Yu come over and help himself, Guan Yu's broadsword is very lethal to the cavalry, and it is very useful when attacking.

Three days later, Guan Yu arrived to join Ye Chen, and Ye Chen took three thousand five hundred soldiers and horses, along with Guan Yu and Tai Shici, to prepare to set off.

"Let me pass, let me pass, I'm going to kill the Huns."

Ye Chen was in the whole team and heard someone making noise.

"What's going on?" Ye Chen asked, and after a while, a soldier ran over to report.

"General, there is a little kid who heard that we are going to fight the Huns, and he ran over and said that he wanted to join the army and fight the Huns."

"Oh, bring someone here." Ye Chen was a little curious, so he wanted to see who it was, and now many people avoided it.

After a while two soldiers came with a little boy, about fifteen or sixteen years old, tall and stubborn, with shabby clothes and a dark man.

"Who are you and why are you yelling outside?" Although Ye Chen's tone was flat, he had a sense of majesty, and the man was a little nervous when he saw Ye Chen's appearance.

I saw that the man calmed down after panicking at first, stood up straight, and said to Ye Chen, "You are the biggest here?" Are you a general? ”

"Yes, I'm the general, but you haven't answered my question yet."

"In Xiatian Yu, the word country rang, Yuyang people, I heard that the general was going to fight the Huns, so I wanted to join the general's team and go to fight the Huns together." The man heard that Ye Chen is general, and said with a fist.

After listening to the other party's words, Ye Chen knew that he was educated, but he didn't know why he fell here, and Ye Chen felt that the name Tian Yu was so familiar.

"Oh, being a soldier and fighting is not child's play, it will kill people."

"General, I understand all this, and I ask the general to allow me to participate in the war." After speaking, Tian Yu knelt on one knee and clenched his fists to ask Ye Chen.

"Why do you insist on fighting the Huns?"

"Don't hide it from the general, my home is in Yuyang, now that the Huns have invaded Yuyang, how can I sit idly by, and my family was also hurt by the Huns earlier, otherwise I would not have fallen here."

After listening to his words, and seeing that he was indeed a talent, Ye Chen also wanted to accept it, at least it was worth cultivating, but the big war was imminent, how could he be included in his own team, this was harmful to him, and it would also harm his own team.

"If you want to join my team, you can't do it yet."

"Please do it, general."

"You have two choices now, one is to get out, the other is to stay in Wangping County, I will send someone to train you, when the training is qualified, and when to join my team to fight the Huns together." Ye Chen said in an unquestionable tone.

Tian Yu was unwilling to see Ye Chen's non-negotiable expression, but there was no way, he had been observing this team for two days, and he liked it very much, and he was very eager to join.

Now, at least Ye Chen did not refuse him, but let him stay in Wangping County.

"If you want to fight the Huns, there is an opportunity, and now the Huns have killed to the right Beiping, and they will be killed soon."

"Okay, I'll stay here to train, but if I pass the training, I'll definitely join the fight."

Ye Chen shook his head and didn't answer him, he was a hot-blooded young man, but he was also a child, and when he saw the cruelty of war, maybe he wouldn't think like that.

Ye Chen asked people to take him down, and at the same time ordered him to arrange training separately, at least now it seems that he is a good seedling.

At this time, the escort battalion had already been completed, and a mobilization meeting would be held before the war, and Ye Chen would also want it.

But the soldiers of the escort battalion didn't need anyone to cheer him up and give him any promises, Ye Chen just said that the enemy had already come, and they brutally killed our compatriots and threatened our homeland.

After hearing this, the guard battalion did not make any moves, but the frenzy in their eyes could be seen that if the Huns appeared in front of them at this time, they would definitely pounce on them and fight with them.

After mobilizing, Ye Chen set off with the team, he wanted to go to Liaoxi first, because he knew that Gongsun Chan would definitely fight, but he didn't know what he was waiting for.

Enter Liaoxi first to learn more about the enemy's situation, and then wait for the opportunity to attack, otherwise it is too far from the battlefield and many things cannot be reacted to in time.
