However, it was said that the three brothers Li Mu led 3,000 Han troops, all the way non-stop, and in the evening of the same day, they rushed to the Qingshui River, and the westward Han army was stationed in the Qingshui River camp that night.

On the second day, after the Han army was full, Li Mu ordered the westward Han army to change into the clothes of the Xianbei army. The army crossed the Qingshui River and marched in a northwesterly direction. At noon that day, the westward army reached Heicheng. Li Mu ordered the Han army to bury pots and cook on the spot, so that they did not have to set up camp. Li Mu knew that this black city was only sixty miles away from the hinterland of the Xianbei army in the clouds, and if the army attacked by surprise, it would only take more than half an hour to arrive. Li Mu also passed down the general's order, and the army rested until tonight, and tomorrow when it was ugly, it attacked the clouds.

Li Mu called Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao to his side. Li Mu looked at Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao, and said with a serious expression: "Zilong, Wen Yuan, the leaders of the Xianbei army in Yunzhong, Putou and Fu Luohan, have been killed, and their elite has been wiped out. Now, the Xianbei army in the hinterland of the clouds is only 10,000 people, and the combat effectiveness is naturally uneven, and there is no need to be afraid! There must be a large amount of grain, grass, and ordnance stored in the hinterland of the clouds, and this should be the gathering place of the Xianbei people in the clouds, and naturally there will be no shortage of women, children, and children. What do you two think about this? ”

Zhao Yun pondered for a while and said, "Big brother, from Zilong's point of view, my westward army will only kill the Xianbei army, and the grain and ordnance that can't be transported can be burned." As for women and children, they can be left to fend for themselves! ”

Zhang Liao said: "Big brother, I agree with what the second brother said. At present, our westward army is only 3,000 people, and if this surprise attack is successful, we will have to move eastward, join forces with General Huangfu, and attack Danhan Mountain. ”

Li Mu nodded, his face sank, and he said in a deep voice: "The Xianbei army must be slaughtered!" Food, grass and ordnance are destroyed! As for women and children, women and children are left behind, and children above the wheels are slaughtered! ”

As soon as Li Mu's words fell, he saw Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao's faces change greatly, Zhao Yun took a step forward and hurriedly said: "Big brother, I'm afraid this kind of practice is too cruel, my Han is a state of etiquette, how can I do such a thing." ”

Li Mu looked at Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao, and said in a deep voice: "What Zilong said makes sense, the Han is a state of etiquette, but what about Xianbei?" How do they treat our women and children? What do they do to our Han women? ”

Li Mu saw that Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao were silent, and said: "Zilong, Wenyuan, think about it again, if you let these children go today, what about five years and ten years later?" They will also grow into Xianbei soldiers, and then swing their sabers at our Han people. If they were the people of the Han Dynasty, I, Li Mu, would naturally not do such a thing. ”

Li Mu saw that Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao were still silent, and said: "Thousands of merits, my descendants have commented that I, Li Mu, have a clear conscience!" I Li Mu is willing to carry this notoriety. ”

Zhao Yun said: "Big brother, the three of us are righteous brothers, and this notoriety Zilong is willing to carry it." ”

Zhang Liao continued: "Big brother, Zhang Liao is also willing to carry this notoriety. ”

Li Mu sighed and said, "Both of you are loyal and courageous people, and it is really difficult for the two of you to do such a shameless thing." ”

Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao said in unison: "Brothers should be of one heart and one mind. ”

But he said that he couldn't return to see that Putou and Fu Luohan had been gone for two days, and when he saw that no news came, he was also shocked in his heart. I had to send scout horses to explore the direction of the Qingshui River along the clouds, but these scouts did not come back, so they had to strengthen their vigilance and wait for Putou and Fuluohan to return.

Li Mu's westward army rested for the night, and just after the hour, Li Mu beat the drum and raised the tent. After the three drums, the Han army was assembled.

Li Mu looked at the three thousand Han army, and said loudly: "This surprise attack on Yunzhong, success or failure in this move, if you can defeat the Xianbei army in Yunzhong, all the wealth obtained can be rewarded to Yuer." ”

When the three thousand Han troops heard this, they naturally cheered.

Li Mu said in a deep voice: "First break through the Xianbei army in the clouds, and then take the property, those who violate the order will be killed!" Those who insult Xianbei women will be beheaded! ”

The three thousand Han Junshan shouted: "Obey the general's order!" ”

Subsequently, the 3,000 Han troops set out from Heicheng, all of them were human titles and horses wrapped in hooves. Along the way, the westward army encountered several groups of rangers, and the rangers saw that the three thousand Han troops were all Xianbei army clothes, so they naturally did not suspect it. When the 3,000 Han troops came to the Xianbei army garrison in Yunzhong, they saw a thousand households come forward and ask where the Han army came from and why there were only these people. Li Mu took out the tokens of Putou and Fuluohan, saying that they had been ordered by Putou and Fuluohan to come back to defend Yunzhong. Li Mu also told the thousand households that Putou and Fuluohan had eliminated the Han army and were on their way south to plunder. When the thousand households heard this, they did not doubt him, so they put the three thousand Han troops into the camp.

Li Mu watched the thousand households enter the camp with three thousand Han troops, and stabbed the thousand households to death with one shot. Li Mu shouted: "Sons, follow me to kill all the Xianbei dog thieves!" After Li Mu finished shouting, he took the lead and killed the Chinese army tent in the Xianbei military camp, Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao were naturally not far behind, and they went out together and killed every person. When Li Mu's words just fell, the three thousand Han troops set fire to each other and cut down anyone they met.

In an instant, the Xianbei army camp was on fire, and the sound of the Xianbei army ghosts crying wolves was higher than ever. The fire took advantage of the wind, and the fire burned all the way from the Xianbei army camp to the tents of the ordinary people of the Xianbei people, and in a moment, only the howls and screams of women, children and children were heard.

But said that in recent days, the vigilance of Hu Bu Hui is very high, and he will patrol several times every night, but just two quarters of an hour ago, the ranger came to report, saying that three thousand Xianbei troops had come back to defend the Yunzhong camp, and even the ranger took out the tokens of Putou and Fu Luohan, of course, the ranger and Hu Bugui did not know that these tokens were given by Li Mu. After listening to the ranger's report, he was naturally relieved, thinking that he could finally sleep well. Right now, Hu Bugui woke up from his sleep, heard shouts outside, and the figure floated, and understood in his heart that the Han army had robbed the camp.

I couldn't care about anything else, I wore single clothes and shoes, and went out of the camp. In the eye, I saw the flames everywhere, and the Xianbei soldiers fell down one after another, and they knew that the general trend had gone, so they hurriedly found a horse and fled for their lives in a panic. However, after only running a dozen steps, he saw a young general in red clothes and red armor rushing over, and before he could turn his horse's head, he saw a human head hanging on the tip of Li Mu's broken spear.

An hour later, the 3,000 Han troops annihilated 10,000 Xianbei troops. Li Mu ordered Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao to lead 500 people to drive away those Xianbei women, children and children, and in less than half an hour, they saw 30,000 or 40,000 old people, women, children and children, wailing and screaming to the barracks. Li Mu had already made a decision in his heart, and immediately ordered all the children who were taller than the wheels to be executed. For a time, in the Xianbei military camp, the mournful shouts were endless.

Li Mu turned his back, looked up at the sky, and said silently in his heart: I'm sorry, if you want to blame, you are born in this era.

Li Mu knew that from now on, the Li Mu from the later generations would slowly disappear, and perhaps the Li Mu from the later generations would only appear when he treated Diao Chan, Zhen Mi, Zhao Yun, and Zhang Liao. Instead, there will be a brand-new, different Li Mu.

After dealing with the prisoners, Li Mu got a report that the Han army suffered more than 500 casualties in this battle, which means that there were only more than 2,400 soldiers left in his hands. Li Mu silently read in his heart:

The map of Zeguo's entry into the war,

What a plan for the people, Le Qiao Su.

With the king's words, the marquis is sealed,

One will be successful, and ten thousand bones will wither.

Li Mu learned that 40,000 horses, 300,000 cattle and sheep, countless grains, grasses and ordnance, and countless gold and silver treasures were seized from the Xianbei army and the people of Yunzhong. Li Mu picked a few items from the gold and silver treasures and prepared them for Diao Chan, Zhen Mi, Yang's family, Aunt Zhang's family, and Niu Er's family. The rest of the treasures, Li Mu asked the Han army to choose by themselves, and the Han army was naturally jubilant.

Li Mu suddenly changed his mind, he left two tun commanders, more than 400 Han troops, let them supervise the Xianbei old people, women, children and children, and transport these horses, cattle and sheep, grain, grass and ordnance, gold and silver treasures back to Yanmen Pass, once is not enough for two, two times is not enough for three times, until the transportation is finished. Li Mu promised these Xianbei people that if they could complete the task, he would naturally give them some cattle and sheep, grain and grass, gold and silver treasures. Those Xianbei people agreed with half a doubt. In fact, these Xianbei people know in their hearts that whether it is the Han army or the Xianbei army, whoever is powerful is their master.

After dealing with everything, Li Mu ordered the army to rest on the spot for a day. At midnight the next day, Li Mushuai led 2,000 Han troops eastward, preparing to meet Zuo Zhonglang's general Huangfu Song.
