Chapter 70: A New Era of the Prairie

Guo Yuan on the ground was lying on the ground like a dead pig, and he didn't know if he was dead.

"Brother Ling Ming quickly sent people to clean up the battlefield and take the population and goods away!"

"Order!"

Ma Chao and Pang De didn't care about Liu Tong at all, and began to arrange post-war work.

"Two generals, the troops of the king of Guli on the left and right are in front, and the east of the river is still fighting, we should pursue the enemy in the west of the river, and we should even help the battle of the east of the river!" Liu Tong's tone was always filled with indignation.

Liu informed that the Huns often had many people with cattle and sheep following them when they were fighting, as military food, and Ma Chao Pang De obviously had these ideas.

"Champion Hou, our army has completed the task of the general, the enemy army in Xihe has retreated, and Huchuquan will be besieged, and this victory is clear. Poor people do not chase, blindly pursue, only increase casualties. Ma Chao replied without question.

"Shaft An dare to do this!"

Liu Tong suddenly became angry when he saw Ma Chao like this, and pointed at Ma Chao with a Canglong stick and scolded! This guy is so hateful, so rude!

Ma Chao was also on fire when he heard it, and he was about to step forward with a spear, but when Pang De saw it, he hurriedly hit the horse to stop the middle.

"Champion Hou doesn't order me Xiliang Army to chase it, Hou Ye can chase it by himself!" Pound grinned and said to Liu Tong seemingly reasonably.

Liu Tong has no choice, he has few people, he can't beat them, even if he can beat them, it is not the time to be in this stall.

"Let's go!"

Liu Tong took his men to the north, leaving behind a sound of ridicule.

Liu Tong endured his anger and walked more than a mile, thinking that he still had less than 2,000 people, and it was obviously unrealistic to chase the more than 10,000 Huns who fled to the west of the river, so he continued to walk forward for a while, wading across the river towards the area where the battle was fighting in the east of the river.

At this time, the sky was already slightly bright, and Liu Tong had just launched with the troops in front, only to see the Huns on the opposite bank who were under black pressure also began to enter the water along the river bank.

Not good, the Huns on the other side began to rush at themselves. No, they didn't come for themselves, and their own people are not enough for them to stuff their teeth!

The Huns should have started to flee, they should have seen the defeat of the Huns in Hexi, and saw that the Han army in Hexi did not pursue, so they thought they could cross the river!

Liu Tong's scalp was numb, and the Huns were in the water for several miles along the coast! You will be engulfed in an instant.

"Back off, back off!"

Behind them are their own troops, some are on the shore, some are going into the water, and the steep retreat will cause chaos. Unable to retreat, Liu Tong had to run downstream in the river, and the Han army in the river also followed, and the Han army on the river bank ran downstream along the river bank.

Liu Tong finally went ashore and moved closer to Ma Chao, and Ma Chao and Pang De found out about this situation from a distance, and they were already in array.

Liu Tong was very embarrassed, and he was angry with Ma Chao just now, and he didn't want to ask them for help again, so he stopped a few hundred meters away from them.

When the Huns saw this, they fled north as soon as they got ashore. This is a strange situation, the Han army in Hexi watched the Huns cross the river, but the Huns were worried about preventing the Han army in Hexi, but the attack they thought did not appear for a long time.

Liu Tong is no longer a stunned young man with only blood and bravery, waiting for the Han army in Hedong to come and pursue, planning to attack again.

However, after a long wait, the army to the east of the river was not found to have crossed the river!

The Huns finally got out! What a strange thing! Liu Tong looked at Ma Chao and Pang De's army in disappointment. I was furious.

However, at this time, something unexpected happened, the thunder of the horse's hooves behind him suddenly sounded, and the horse exceeded the soldiers in pursuit!

Liu Tong was even more angry! The Huns have already left more than two miles!

Ma Chao and Pang De passed by Liu Tong, and under Liu Tong's angry gaze, they rushed away in a dashing manner.

Liu informed that they went to pick up things, and they went to make gestures!

When the sky was completely bright, Liu Tong came to Yan Rou's handsome tent.

"General, why don't you pursue?"

It's understandable that Ma Chao doesn't pursue, why doesn't Yan Rou pursue? Liu Tong saw Zhang Yan and Yin Li and others in the tent, and Liang Mao also walked in and asked.

"Dahe has worked hard, you fought very well in Hexi in this battle!" Yan Rou said appreciatively.

"But ......"

"But we've captured Luan Tihu Kitchen Spring!" Zhang Yan laughed.

Liu Tong wanted to say it again, but stopped as soon as he heard this. Having captured Shan Yu of the Huns, it is understandable that Yan Rou did not want to increase his casualties. Yan Rou, like his father-in-law Liu Yu, has always advocated that the main thing is to pacify ethnic minorities, and if he can, he will not fight. Now that he has captured Huchuquan, even if he can completely annihilate the Huns, he will not do this.

Liu Tong also had an idea that quickly calmed down his mood. It was around this time in history that Ma Chao led his troops to defeat Hu Chuquan and Gao Gan, Guo Yuan and others, Guo Yuan was even beheaded by Pang De, and Gao Gan and Hu Chuquan surrendered.

After Cao Cao Jin Wei King, the power rose greatly, Yecheng, his reputation spread to the north, the Huns admired him very much, so Hu Chuquan came to Yecheng to congratulate Cao Cao. In order to weaken his power, Cao Cao left Luan Tihu Chuquan in Yecheng, treated him with the courtesy of a guest, and asked his right virtuous king to go back to help him manage the various tribes of the Southern Xiongnu.

The left part of the Later Order was located in Taiyuan Zishi County (now southeast of Fenyang, Shanxi), the right part was located in Qi County (now southeast of Qi County, Shanxi Province), the south was located in Puzi County (now Xi County, Shanxi Province), the north was located in Xinxing County (now Xin County, Shanxi Province), and the central part was located in Daling County (now northeast of Wenshui County, Shanxi Province). Although the Xiongnu tribal organization was still nominally preserved, all the power had fallen into the hands of the Cao Wei regime, and the Southern Xiongnu regime perished.

Liu informed that Liu Kuan must have known about this history, and perhaps he had already informed Yan Rou of the relevant strategy, and even if he did not tell Yan Rou, with Yan Rou's understanding of the northern grassland tribes, he would propose a similar policy to Liu Kuan. Because that's how he dealt with other tribes all these years.

Liu informed that the war with the Huns was almost over.

After the war, Ma Chao was appreciated by Yan Rou, and Yan Rou also played for Ma Chao, only Liu Tong was very dissatisfied with Ma Chao. After all, Yan Rou's pursuit had his own overall considerations, and Ma Chao's failure to pursue was completely selfish and completely disregarding the overall situation, because at that time he didn't know that Hu Chuquan was captured, and he didn't know Yan Rou's plans!

When Liu Tong talked to Yan Rou about this matter, Yan Rou said: "It's good that the Xiliang Army can participate in the war, as long as he doesn't make trouble and can obey orders in the overall situation." As for some selfishness, don't care about some goods. ”

Liu Tong thinks about it, why ask others to think like himself and keep pace with himself.

However, Liu Tong was thinking that when Cao Cao was prime minister in history, he wanted to recruit Ma Chao to join the court as an official, but Ma Chao did not go to the post. After the crusade against Guo Yuan, Cao Cao used the edict of Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty to worship Ma Chao as the assassin of Xuzhou, but Ma Chao still did not go to the post. Cao Cao changed the title of Ma Chao to the counselor, and the position of Xuzhou Assassin was given to Zang Ba by the imperial court. Will Liu Kuan also appoint Ma Chao to a position other than Xiliang this time, and will Ma Chao refuse to take office? It is estimated that Ma Chao will still not take office, because he knows that he can't leave the nest of Xiliang, otherwise he will establish a tiger with missing teeth and an eagle without wings.

If you really come to the Central Plains to take up your post, don't want Liu Kuan to clean you up, just I, Liu Tong, will deal with you bastard!

When the army was marching out, Liu Tong also learned some things, first of all, Pang De was too fierce, and when he captured Guo Yuan, because he was clamped too hard, he was already out of breath when he was thrown on horseback.

The other is the left and right Xian Wang, although the left and right Gu Li King ran away, but the left and right generals of the Huns, the left and right captains, the left and right big households, the left and right bones are marquis, except for the right general who ran away, the other generals who followed Hu Chuquan were captured, and the commander was also arrested several.

Each had his own needs, and Ma Chao returned with their booty and Qiang's cavalry. Ma Chao not only got the materials and people he had captured, but also distributed a large amount of materials to him by Yan Rou.

As for Yan Rou, he doesn't value materials, what he values is that after this battle, he has basically solved the problem of the Huns, who have the most headache for him, and after all these years, he has worked hard in the grassland, and it should be said that the grassland has entered the new era that Liu Kuan is looking forward to.

If the problem of the Huns is completely solved, then, if nothing else, the steppe will be pacified, and the rebellion of a few tribes can only be regarded as a small fight. In the future, as long as the Xiongnu and a few larger Xianbei tribes are stabilized, it will not be a big problem.

As long as the "National Law" is properly implemented, after several decades of peace and stability, according to Liu Kuan's strategy, through great integration and assimilation, this millennium problem should be solved. Everything is developing on a good side, but there is a premise, that is, there will be no more big melee in the Central Plains, as long as the north is stable, all this is not a problem.

The rudiments of the steppe regime are about to take shape, and the dawn of a new era has already passed through the clouds.
