523 Good scenery outside the plug

"In the Qin period, the bright moon and the Han period, the Long March has not been returned. But to make the dragon city fly will not teach Huma to cross the Yin Mountain. Liu Zhang didn't even think about it, so he read it out directly. Zhen Mi on the side didn't think about it so much, so she recorded it easily.

She is completely accustomed to Liu Zhang's occasional poems that pop out like a nervous disorder. Although this one is not as good as the previous one, it has a taste of the plug, and it is quite a feeling to read. Especially since they are all Han now, and they have a lot of memories of Wei Qing and Li Guangdu, and it seems more appropriate to read at this time.

"Back then, the two generals galloped outside the Saiwai, killing the Huns and having to flee, but the general was thinking about the war that year?" How powerful it was in the Western Han Dynasty, it was not inferior in the middle of the Eastern Han Dynasty. Who knew that the end of the Han Dynasty would become like this, but Liu Zhang's rise should be stronger now than it was back then, right?

"Huh?" Liu Zhang thought of those two, but he simply wanted to recite poetry. This is also fortunate that the Han people have poems to read, and when they encounter a few lines of poetry, they also seem to be very elegant, otherwise they can only stare dryly, how uncomfortable? Replaced by those foreigners, oh God, oh God is so beautiful......

Looking at Liu Zhang's puzzled look, Zhen Mi was also a little confused. After reading the verses, is there anything wrong? Liu Zhang looked at her like that, and couldn't help but say, "Okay, don't worry about this, look at the scenery outside the plug." "There are only barren mountains, grasslands, and dead trees in heaven and earth, and there are not even a few flocks of birds.

Zhen Mi couldn't help but roll her eyes when she looked at the desolation outside, Liu Zhang's indecent appearance was really helpless. However, the poems were still good and sent back to Cai Yan, and then sent them to the newspaper, and finally they went to ask what others said. In short, women have seen it themselves, and they like to let others evaluate it, and they are listening to the evaluation.

"In front of the lord is the ruins of General Duliao, where the jurisdiction of General Duliao was set up during the reign of Emperor Zhao of the Han Dynasty. Over the years we have lost control of the north, and gradually become a fortress of the Huns. Zhang Ren said as he walked that Liu Zhang knew a lot of strange things, but he didn't seem to understand these places at all.

Liu Zhang nodded and said, "The desertification situation here is so serious, it's quite troublesome to turn around and deal with it." It seems that you need to find a capable official to take charge of the north, which is not easy to manage? "Liu Zhang is not easy to manage over there in Youzhou, but Liu Zhang is planning to march north.

"Why should the lord be worried? There are so many officials in Chang'an, how can they not govern here after the imperial examination? "Zhang Ren knows that Liu Zhang's selection of officials is very strict, and he used to be filial piety and rely on recommendations or something. But since he got out of the imperial examination, Liu Zhang has asked for real talent and real learning. This one is absolutely not allowed to speak, there were not many people who followed him back then, and it was all based on himself. Those who followed him already had the size of a big family, if someone came to Liu Zhang's side so easily to get a piece of the pie, wouldn't it be very unfair to Fa Zheng and Zheng Du who worked so hard back then?

"I'm not worried about this, it's just a trivial matter to govern, but it's very quickly destroyed." Liu Zhang felt that he was thinking too much, and he was only in his twenties and thought about it hundreds of years later.

"How long will it take to get from here to the gathering place of the Huns?" Liu Zhang was a little bored in a hurry, but fortunately he was a large chariot cavalry, and although the infantry was available, he was also very fast. Even if it is like this, it will take a month, and it will take two months to come and go, and there will be two months of fighting in between. This is out for half a year, which makes Liu Zhang very uncomfortable. If it were a conquest of Rome, wouldn't it be decades? It seems that we still have to go by sea, otherwise this walking day will make people desperate.

"At the current pace of marching, it will take us five days to reach the place of the Huns. In front is the Dalai Banner, and then it is Linwo after passing here is Wuyuan County, and after passing through Jiuyuan, you will reach the capital Wuyuan. That's almost a month, and you have to fight the enemy during this time. Zhang Ren had already passed it, but he understood that Liu Zhang was most afraid of hurrying.

Liu Zhang turned around and shrank directly on the chair of the cart, how long did it take to travel? It seems that Cao Cao and Liu Bei are still easy to fight, and they will not run around when they are close to themselves. These Huns, Liu Zhang is not easy to find, so he has to run to their nest. Of course, if they don't come out, that's better. Liu Zhang was stationed here all the way and the army drove all the herdsmen inland to the interior of the state.

"Hurry, hurry! Remember to rest early in the afternoon, although there is no shortage of water here, but also to ensure that our soldiers are well fed and sleep. "Liu Zhang is not short of supplies, and he doesn't have many troops. It is enough to ensure that he goes all the way to Wuyuan County, not to mention that the supplies in his rear are still coming.

The ruins of General Duliao are already close to the desolate Gobi here, but fortunately, the water source is easy to find. Looking at the desertification outside, Liu Zhang had never seen a desert in his previous life. It's good to look at this time, but who knows that the big camp on my side has just been stationed, and a pack of wolves actually appeared in the distance?

"There are quite a lot of wolves on the edge of the desert, it seems that the Huns have grazed and fed a lot of these things over the years?" There are more sheep, and naturally there will be more wolves, and the shepherds of this period do not like to raise dogs, so it is naturally a little worse to deal with wolves.

Zhang Ren glanced at it a few times and said, "There are a lot of these wolves?" "So many wolves are a threat to horses, and once a horse is frightened, it's troublesome.

Liu Zhang glanced at it a few times and said, "Send a team of cavalry out to kill, don't come and harass us at night." Kill a few more heads and come back, and you can also add food in the evening. "In this era, there are no animal protection laws, wolves are beasts of prey, but they are also meat.

After a night's rest, Liu Zhang continued to hurry, and Liu Zhang, who had been walking all the way, almost did not collapse before reaching the Dalat Banner, and when Liu Zhang arrived here, the Huns had already seen Liu Zhang's army. By the time the people and soldiers had already known about it, the people and soldiers had already known about it.

It's just that the firearms of the Han people are too fierce, and there is nothing to defend here, so in the end, Yu Fuluo Huchuquan gave up this place and ran away with a large number of soldiers. They patted their butts and left, but the herders here couldn't go that fast. They had a large number of cattle and sheep, and if they gave up, they would not be able to survive on the grassland, and finally these people slowly gathered here, and Liu Zhang's arrival caused a large number of herdsmen here to panic.

Speaking of which, when the Huns bullied the Han Chinese, it was really called a murderous one. But when the Han killed the Huns, it was even more ferocious and wild. That kind of ferocity was unimaginable to later generations, it was completely a struggle between the two ethnic groups, and finally ended in the victory of the Han people.

Dismounted and looked at the city ahead, there were still herdsmen outside the city, and it was definitely too late to run away. In the distance, there were a few seven or eight-year-old boys and girls holding sheep cubs and looking curiously here, they had not experienced the era of the Han people going north, so they naturally did not understand what the arrival of the army meant.

The adults saw Liu Zhang's army driving the children towards the city one by one, and the cattle and sheep were placed here. At this time, life is still important, but those children look at their own cattle and sheep, which are more important than them. The scene was chaotic for a while, but fortunately, they saw that Liu Zhang was not in a hurry to march, but stopped and watched.

Liu Zhang felt that he was not a brutal person, and there was no need for Liu Zhang to kill ordinary people. Killing them will not solve the problem, it will only increase senseless killing. It's better to send these people back and let them go to the state to graze, which is the right thing to do.

Liu Zhang rode his horse and stood in front, and an old man walked out of the city, and he came to Liu Zhang's side alone: "General little old man Chagar, I don't know what the general needs are when he comes from afar?" There are some cattle, sheep and food here that can be given to the general. Looking at Liu Zhang's quiet appearance, his heart went up and down.

Liu Zhang looked at it for a while before saying, "Isn't there a single soldier in this city?" ”

The old man immediately said: "There are only more than 1,000 herdsmen and nearly 10,000 cattle and sheep in the city of General Hui, and there are absolutely no soldiers. The leader returned to Wuyuan with all the soldiers, and only me and the old and weak were here. We are willing to contribute half of the cattle and sheep, and I hope that the general will let us go. As he spoke, he knelt down, and when the Han people fought the Xiongnu moved westward, they really didn't kill all of them. This once drove the entire Xiongnu away, and if they did not move, they would definitely be killed by the Han people. This shows how great the hatred was back then, and it was no less than the massacre of blacks by whites. Of course, Liu Zhang will do the same, only to be strong in the time of racial disputes.

Liu Zhang looked up and said, "What if I choose not?" I'm going to kill them all? What do you do? Liu Zhang looked into the distance lightly, he was not familiar with it, and he didn't know if there were ambushes. Of course, the Xiongnu can be said to be all soldiers, or they can be said to be all herdsmen.

The old man looked at Liu Zhang's indifferent attitude, and suddenly looked at Liu Zhang dumbfounded. originally thought that he was a talkative general, and he didn't kill at the first time, but when he really spoke, he felt that Liu Zhang was really difficult to communicate. Especially when he doesn't say a word, it's really a little scary.

Liu Zhang glanced at it a few times and said, "You go back and tell all the herdsmen in the city to come out and stand on one side, and I will send someone to search in the city." If there is only one man in the city, I will kill you all. If there is no one in the city, I will spare you all. I'll just give you a cup of tea, and if you can't do it, don't blame me for killing people. Liu Zhang still didn't tease this old man after watching it for a long time, and according to his own urine, he was afraid that he could scare this old man to death. In later generations, big words are big words, but now it is a bit scary to have the right to say big things. However, Liu Zhang did not have the determination to slaughter civilians after all, and if it was a soldier, he would not have a sense of guilt when he killed him.
