Ye Zhao didn't let Guan Yu and Zhao Yun get up immediately, after all, they had just come back from a change of guard and wanted to reunite with their families.

Zouma Water and Xungushui are both the boundaries of the Qiang people, but the Qiang people in these two places, with Ye Zhao's great opening to the Qiang trade, the Qiang people in these two places have trade contacts with Chang'an, and even their leaders have come to visit Ye Zhao in person, Ye Zhao asked them to help hide their tracks, although Zhao Yun and Guan Yu have not yet left, but the cavalry has arrived secretly under the cover of these Qiang people in batches.

With the passage of time, according to the data collected from various places, Ye Zhao has roughly divided the area where the Huns who infiltrated Guanzhong are located.

"What do these people want to do?" Half a month later, Ye Zhao looked at Chang'an, which was surrounded by a large number of circles drawn by cinnabar pens on the map, and his brows jumped.

"Changmen Pavilion, Weiqiao, Pickaxe ......" Li Ru nodded to these places and said: "There are more than 20 places of size, many are nearly a thousand, and the few are hundreds, these people are currently quite regular, and they use them on weekdays, and they also exchange the property they bring for food, but these goods can be a lot, and the Huns spend so much manpower and financial resources, so the plan is not a trivial matter." ”

"And there's another thing I wonder if the lord is paying attention to?" Xi Zhicai frowned.

"Oh?" Ye Zhao looked back at Xi Zhicai.

"Although the Huns are attached to the south, they rarely walk around in the pass, even if there is occasional looting, they also take more roads, but this time, these Huns who went south seem to know the terrain of our Guanzhong well, and the purpose is very clear, if it is not for the restructuring of our army, there is an intelligence network in each county, and the counties will make statistical reports on the Qianghu in the territory every month, and it is difficult for us to detect the movements of these Huns!" Xi Zhicai bowed down.

Ye Zhao and Li Ru's faces instantly became difficult to see, this problem is not unexpected, but now Guan Chinese Wu, basically Ye Zhao's cronies, whether Ye Zhao or Li Ru, Xi Zhicai, obviously do not want to have a traitor under their command, and plan the line, formulate the way of action, if there is really someone who has an affair with the Huns, the status is probably not low.

Ye Zhao fiddled with the cinnabar pen in his hand, looked at the area circled on the map and said: "Order Xu Rong to spy secretly, no matter what conspiracy they have, prepare to do it, in addition, order the Kunming Chi battalion to transfer 20,000 soldiers and horses, and wait for dispatch at any time." ”

"Don't worry, my lord, in my opinion, this person who instigated the Huns may not be a person in my army!" Xi Zhicai shook his head and said: "Otherwise, these data will not be sent to us so easily, there will definitely be errors and omissions, the enemy doesn't seem to know that we have such an intelligence network, but they are very familiar with the land of Guanzhong." ”

"Han Sui and Ma Teng have no change at present, and Han Sui is working hard to collect money, and there is chaos in Guanzhong, which is absolutely not beneficial to Han Sui at present, of course, it is not ruled out that Han Sui has far-sightedness, and wants the strong man to break his wrist, first chaos Guanzhong, and plot against my Guanzhong." Li Ru shook his head and said: "Li Dao and Guo Yan's old department will either die or surrender, and most of those who are gone are incompetent, and they may not have this layout ability!" In addition, the only ones who can do it are those ministers who follow the Son of Heaven to return to the east. ”

"In this way, the minister remembers one thing!" Xi Zhicai saw Ye Zhao and Li Ru looking at each other, and said with a smile: "About the second year of Xingping, the Southern Xiongnu Shan Yu led the army south, and later died in battle, and was succeeded by his younger brother Hu Chuquan. ”

"Although it is impossible for Cao Cao to focus on Guanzhong now, if it is not for the lord to kill Shuzhong, the land of Guanzhong is nominally also Cao Cao's bag, perhaps under Cao Cao's command, Guanzhong has already begun to be deployed, and now the lord occupies Guanzhong, it must not be something that Cao Cao wants to see, if he secretly orders someone to come and make trouble, it is not impossible."

"But Chen Qun came to visit before, and he didn't know anything about Guanzhong, and he had been in Yingchuan before, according to the news from the secret agent, after Chen Qun left Chang'an, he went straight to Youzhou, it can't be this person's layout!" Li Ru shook his head and said.

"In fact, there are still many capable people in the DPRK and China." Ye Zhao waved his hand, leaned on the back of the chair, looked at the two of them and said, "Don't guess yet, the Huns have set up such a big battle, they will always come out and sing two plays, see what they want to do first, and then make plans." ”

"Whoa!"

"In addition, no matter what it means this time, since the Huns have stretched their necks over, there is no reason not to take it, in recent days, let people do a plan for the Hetao, these hundreds of miles of fertile land, let a group of Huns occupy a bit of a pity, just take this opportunity to get it back, and it will also be a big granary for our army in the future." Ye Zhao said with a smile.

No matter what the Huns think, but people even stretch their necks over, and if they don't eat the fat meat in their mouths, they will be damned.

Xi Zhicai and Li Ru couldn't help laughing when they heard this, indeed, now the Huns seem to be secretive, but every move has fallen under Ye Zhao's monitoring, for Ye Zhao, these 10,000 Hun soldiers are basically meat on the chopping block, but over there in the Hetao, Guan Yu and Zhao Yun haven't made a move yet, after all, it is a nation where all the people are soldiers, if they can't defeat the other party before they react, once these Huns join forces, Guan Yu and Zhao Yun's two troops are afraid that they will suffer, no matter how elite they are, they are useless, there are many families, and they occupy the geographical advantage.

It was a bit premature for Ye Zhao to directly regard the Hetao as his own place at this time.

"Order someone to light the wolf smoke!" Ye Zhao said: "In addition, I will send someone to arrest a few Hun leaders, and we will interrogate them well tonight." ”

The details of the other party have been figured out, Guan Yu and Zhao Yun can do it directly, even if the Huns want to send the news back, it will take time, and it is easy for people here to come, but it is not so easy to leave.

Xi Zhicai and Li Ru nodded, as the side that should be defending, at this time, the army suddenly descended on the opponent's lair, which can have a surprise effect, and it is also the best time to attack.

In the afternoon of the same day, the area north of Chang'an was lit up one after another.

Near Weiqiao, in a gathering place of the Huns, the Huns who noticed the wolf smoke gathered together a little uncalmly.

"Chief, what's going on? Could it be that the Han people have discovered us? Several tribal leaders gathered together and asked in a low voice.

"I didn't see the shadow of the Han army." The man shook his head and said: "This time we went south, we didn't loot, the Han people couldn't find us, maybe the Han people themselves fought, now the Han people are divided, conquer each other, don't care!" ”

"These Han people are stupid enough, we have arrived here, and they don't even know that we exist." Another tribal leader grinned and said: "But it was the Han people who came up with this idea, if you want me to say, you shouldn't meddle in this matter, let them fight by themselves, and when the fight is almost over, we will make another move, this time the gold and silver in the tribe are almost all spent on the road." ”

"It's not that easy." The head man shook his head: "The purpose of this time is the capital of the Han people, I have just met the Bei people, and tomorrow I will go to the Bei people to envoy to Chang'an, we will take the opportunity to attack Chang'an, and the food and property of Chang'an will be ours, and the previous loss can be taken back ten times and a hundred times, I heard that the grain, gold and silver of the Han people are piled up as high as a mountain." ”

"Finally I don't have to endure it anymore, when I think about ......"

"Poof~"

Before he could finish speaking, a short arrow pierced the tribal leader's head in the stunned gaze of the others.

"What people!" Several tribal leaders are also battle-hardened figures, and when they found that something was wrong, they shouted angrily, and at the same time rushed out in the opposite direction, and slashed the tent with a wave of their swords, trying to join the soldiers on the periphery, but when they tore the tent and rushed out, they were faced with cold crossbow arrows.

Farther away, I saw corpses in the camp falling to the ground, in broad daylight, more than 200 people, so silently took their lives, everyone only felt the cold behind them.

"Under Gu Cheng!" Gu Cheng got out of the broken tent, looked at several Hun leaders who were standing stiffly in place, hugged his fists and said: "My lord has heard for a long time that the Huns are many heroic and brave people, so I specially ordered to come down and invite them as a meeting gift......"

Gu Cheng pointed to the corpses around him, and looked at a few people coldly: "I hope you can be satisfied." ”

"I'll fight with you!" A tribal leader pounced on Gu Cheng with red eyes.

"Poof~"

Beside Gu Cheng, I don't know when there was an extra figure, and I didn't see how to move, I only felt that the cold light flashed, and the Hun leader's forward action became stiff, Gu Cheng turned his body sideways, and the tribal leader fell down so straight and silent.

"Although we are Huns, but this time, we are just here to do business, Your Excellency is so rude, killing my soldiers in vain, it is too vicious, right?" The Hun leader looked at Gu Cheng and gritted his teeth.

"What your purpose is, I don't care, I just came to invite you by order, and I don't care about the rest, you can choose to follow me to see the lord!" Gu Cheng's indifferent gaze fell on the man, and the cold light in his eyes made the man's heart cold, and he didn't dare to make a sound: "Or...... You too can choose to die, just like this warrior! ”

The head man looked at Gu Cheng with a gloomy face, but he didn't speak, he wanted to delay time.

Gu Cheng looked at the sky, raised his crossbow without warning, and raised his hand at a tribal leader is an arrow, the tribal leader couldn't react, and was pierced through the neck by an arrow, his eyes widened in astonishment, staring at Gu Cheng deadly.

"What are you doing!?" The Hun head's eyes widened and he roared.

"My patience isn't too good." Gu Cheng unhurriedly took out a crossbow arrow from his waist again, and said while adding it: "Usually when we are in a bad mood, we will choose to kill, you must be clear, the life of the Huns, in the land of my Han family, is not protected, anyone can kill at will." ”

"You can continue to wait, there will be a lot of time in the future, but I don't know if I will lose patience again." Gu Cheng looked at everyone with a smile.

"Let's go!" The head man's face changed, and he gritted his teeth.

"In terms of the intelligence and insight of the Huns, you are already very good, and I still want to kill a few more in the next year, but it's a pity." Gu Cheng looked at the leader and shook his head with some regret: "You can actually think about it again, originally I only need to take two or three people back, and I can make a difference!" ”

"Don't think about it, I've been hearing the name of the captain for a long time, and I want to see you." The head man gritted his teeth and looked at Gu Cheng, he had no doubt that the other party would really make a move.

"Let's go!" Gu Cheng withdrew his crossbow in disappointment, turned around, and left without looking back, and several soldiers stepped forward, tied up these people, and sent them to Chang'an.
