Gao Wei saw that the county order opened the city gate, and hurriedly said to Ma Zhong in a trembling voice: "General, can you remove the thing on my waist, be cautious!" ”

Seeing that his subordinates had captured the county order and controlled the city gate, Ma Zhong withdrew the sword resting on Gao Wei's waist, and said in a cold voice: "Gao Wei, the two cities of Puban and Ruicheng still need your cooperation, as long as you cooperate properly, my lord's guild will consider putting you back!" ”

In this way, Ma Zhong easily defrauded Puban and Ruicheng, and after firmly controlling these three county seats, he quickly sent troops to deceive those family forts close to Yuan Shao and swept away those families.

From then on, the area near Yanchi in Hedong that was controlled by Gao Gan was occupied by the Wei army.

However, it was said that Dian Wei and Pan Feng led 5,000 men and horses to Baibo Valley, and Wei Yan had already reorganized the captured Hun cavalry.

The 70,000 Hun cavalry when starting from Meiji City, through the Wei army's archers along the road, were shot and killed more than 12,000 people, after entering the Baibo Valley and being ambushed by Wei Yan's army, more than 13,000 people were killed, only more than 44,000 people remained, of which more than 15,000 were wounded, less than 30,000 people could still fight on horseback, Wei Yan also selected 8,000 elites in it, leaving only Liu Bao Dadan, who was willing to be Wei Yan's puppet, more than 20,000 cavalry.

Liu Bao looked at the more than 20,000 cavalry under his command, and couldn't help frowning.

He can see that these are the mediocre riders of various tribes, and most of them are greedy for life and afraid of death, when the Hun cavalry was ambushed by the Wei army, the cavalry who died in the previous battle all pulled their bows and arrows to resist, but these guys simply jumped off the horse, lay on the ground and pretended to be dead, so they saved their lives, relying on these guys to help them win the throne of Da Shan Yu, it was a joke!

Wei Yan saw Liu Bao's embarrassed look, so he asked, "Da Danyu, why are you so worried?" ”

Liu Bao pointed to the group of Hun soldiers and sighed loudly: "If Wen Changgong only gives me a group of people who are greedy for life and afraid of death, I am afraid that I will not be able to enter Meiji City, and I should not be a big order, and it will be in vain for Wen Changgong to be kind!" ”

Wei Yan smiled and pointed at his Wei army: "Da Danyu, what do you think of these soldiers under me?!" ”

Liu Bao looked at the fierce and high-morale Wei army, and his expression was full of envy, jealousy and hatred: "Wen Changgong's Wei army ambushed me with 60,000 horses, killed more than 13,000 of me, captured more than 44,000 of me, and the Wei army itself only lost more than 1,000 people. ”

Wei Yan was full of ambition, and laughed and said: "Da Shan Yu, you should know that most of my soldiers are adapted from the Yellow Turban Thief!" ”

Liu Bao was stunned for a moment, and thought about the combat power of the two branches of the Yellow Turban Thief, the White Wave Thief and the Black Mountain Thief, which was slightly inferior to their Hun cavalry, especially the White Wave Thief, who had little training and purely relied on numbers.

Liu Bao said in a trembling voice: "Xiao Wang really doesn't know, how did Wen Changgong turn those bandits and bandits into today's elite soldiers?!" ”

Wei Yan smiled proudly: "Da Danyu, the elite soldiers are not selected, but trained!" Since you complain that your cavalry is useless, it is better to hand them over to my Wei army, my Wei army will definitely train them strictly, and after the training is qualified, I will hand them over to your command, I don't know what Da Dan will do?! ”

Liu Bao thought that Wei Yan wanted to brainwash all the Hun soldiers and control them all into his own mercenaries.

He hadn't seen Wei Yan's training of the Wei army was a strict training from both physical and mental aspects, but according to the daily training of other armies, he felt that Wei Yan's training of the army for him could not change the mentality of these Hun cavalrymen, after all, they were still Huns, no matter what tricks Wei Yan played, they still listened to me, the big Danyu.

After thinking for a long time, Liu Bao agreed with Wei Yan's proposition.

After Liu Bao's guidance, Wei Yan ordered people to kill all the leaders of the Hun cavalry belonging to Liu Bao's hostile tribes, and then selected people with high riding and archery skills and great prestige from ordinary herdsmen to be generals at all levels, and the establishment of the Hun cavalry was all arranged according to the Wei army's corps, two, team, battalion, brigade, division, and army.

In order to prevent the Huns from repeating, Wei Yan still sent Dian Wei, Pan Feng and others with 5,000 men to guard the Huns who had been disarmed and disarmed.

Wei Yan explained to Liu Bao: "You can't go to the battlefield without the training of our Wei army!" ”

After the Xiongnu soldiers were forced to land, Wei Yan prepared to break through the Baibo Valley, completely eliminate the Baibo thieves, and end the war before the arrival of ice and snow.

The passes on both sides of the Baibo Valley are narrow and narrow, and it is inconvenient to use troops, Wei Yan was at a loss to break through the Baibo Valley Pass, but since Liu Bao surrendered, Wei Yan started the idea of the more than 30,000 Huns in the Baibo Valley, and he wanted Liu Bao to inform the Huns inside to come and join forces.

Bai Boqu Shuai Hu Cai already knew that Wei Yan had forced Liu Bao to land, and he was afraid that the more than 30,000 Huns in the valley would collude with Liu Bao, so he sent people to confiscate the weapons of the Huns and sent people to keep them under strict guard.

Wei Yan saw that there was no news of Liu Bao's letter shot into the Baibo Valley, and knew that this strategy had been seen through by Hu Cai, so he tried to build ordinary catapults, ladders, rushing carts and other siege equipment, and then organized more than a dozen attacks, except for more than 1,000 people killed in the battle in vain, nothing was found.

In desperation, Wei Yan had no choice but to send someone to the rear to transport the thunderbolt cart, but was blocked by Xu Shu: "Lord, that thunderbolt cart is very huge, and it takes a lot of time to transport it, and now that the cold winter is coming, the ice and snow weather is not far away, and our army has little time to fight in the field!" ”

Wei Yan saw that Xu Shu was confident, so he smiled and asked, "Yuan Zhi can have a quick victory?" ”

Xu Shu quickly drew a topographic map of the Baibo Valley on paper, pointed to a corner in the northwest, and said with a smile: "In the past few days when the lord sent people to build siege equipment, I rode a horse and circled around this Baibo Valley, and found that this Baibo Valley is surrounded by cliffs, and it is difficult to climb down, but it is not completely impossible to climb. On this side of the northwest corner, there are a lot of pine trees growing on the cliff wall on the top of the valley, and there are also a lot of grass and trees growing on the bottom of the valley, the cliff here is the highest and most dangerous, and it is close to the pass in the west, so Hu Cai did not arrange too many sentinels here, so the lord can lead people to climb down and surprise attack the Baibo Valley. ”

Wei Yan heard Xu Shu say this, and suddenly remembered a handsome talent in the Three Kingdoms period, Deng Ai, he attacked Yinping, when he led the army to reach the Sky Ridge, there was a steep cliff in front, Deng Ai wrapped his body with felt, rolled down the cliff, and other soldiers had felt, they all wrapped their bodies with felt, and rolled down the mountain.
