Chapter 406: The Great War Is Imminent

The Wind Thunder Dragon, it lies in its speed, in terms of brute strength, it is still not as violent as the Red Rabbit Horse.

Of course, even if it is a red rabbit horse, if it is really restrained in Ma Chao's hands, I am afraid that it will not be able to break free.

Finally, the Storm Thunder Dragon was still subdued by Ma Chao.

It is said that it has spirituality, so it is natural to spare his life. It felt Ma Chao's domineering power, which made it have the idea of taming the strong, and this thought should be its spirituality. Know how to seek good fortune and avoid evil.

Ma Chao tamed horses, and was also looked at by those aliens, and they were all amazed by Ma Chao's bravery, and they could be regarded as seeing the real power of the Han generals.

In this way, the two kings of the Di and Qiang tribes, as well as the leaders of the tribes, their generals and warriors, were also convinced. It is clear to see that the prestige of the New Han Army is not blown out, but the generals of other people, and it does have a strength that is difficult for them to match.

With the episode of Ma Chao proposing the color head and pulling the war horse who is obsessed with the king, it is equivalent to directly allowing these aliens to obtain tangible benefits.

Although they have not yet been able to decide whether to submit to the New Han Dynasty, they have made it clear that they will definitely not participate in the attack on the New Han Army. And said that they could disperse the tribes at once and no longer assemble here.

However, Jia Xu didn't let them disperse immediately, and let them temporarily assemble according to their original plan. Moreover, they were required to keep it a secret, so that the princes of Xiliang and the mysterious person knew that they had reached an agreement with the New Han Dynasty.

This, in fact, is also for the sake of their own safety of aliens. Imagine if they rebelled. Let the mysterious man and the princes of Xiliang notice, so that their plan cannot be carried out. So. They're going to be angry, right? Surely you will be angry with these alien tribes, right?

Now, these Di, Qiang and other tribes. It's true that he has received the benefit of that mysterious person, and if he doesn't do anything about it, anyone will be furious.

Of course, now, these alien tribes are gathered here, and there are four or five hundred thousand horses, and this strength has exceeded the total strength of the princes of the Xiliang forces. They gathered here, even if they didn't go according to the mysterious man's plan. The mysterious man and the princes of Xiliang couldn't help them. At most, they dare not speak out, and sit back and watch their own plans fail.

But once they are separated, then it will give the mysterious man and the princes of Xiliang and the other forces a chance to break through these alien races one by one, which will cause them great harm. Therefore, it is better to stay here.

In addition, Jia Xu also considered it for another reason. That's how hard it took these aliens to gather here. Once an agreement was formed with them, and eventually they were all willing to submit to the New Han Dynasty, then. It is also of great benefit to them in the future. If they all leave, it will be difficult to find them in the future. Also, if they submit to the New Han Dynasty, then. You can also take advantage of their military horses. Think about it, if the mysterious man and the princes of Xiliang were in power, when they thought that these alien armies would join them in launching an attack on the New Han army. But I was surprised to find that these alien armies. Instead of attacking the New Han Army as they wished, on the contrary. Instead, an attack was launched against them. Thinking about the situation at that time, it was equivalent to hanging up the mysterious man and those Xiliang princes and beating them violently. At that time, I'm afraid that if you don't have to fight, they will be scared to death themselves, right?

This is also a way that Jia Xu can think of, a faster and easier way to unify Xiliang, if it is done, Jia Xu believes that this winter, it will be able to completely unify Xiliang. As long as Xiliang is unified, then it will be easy to do, and the plan to unify the Han may be realized in advance.

In fact, the most important part of the New Han Dynasty's winter war plan so far is not whether Jingzhou can attack Yizhou or whether it can contain Liu Zhang and Zhang Lu's army. Rather, it lies in whether Jia Xu can persuade the Xiliang alien races such as Di and Qiang in Xiliang to submit to the New Han Dynasty.

Now, at least people have seen hope, and they have seen the hope of the Xiliang alien race returning to the New Han Dynasty. Now, Jia Xu and the others can only return from the alien barracks first and wait for the final results of their deliberations.

Of course, Jia Xu, Ma Teng, Ma Chao and others must also prepare for the worst, and be prepared to be enemies of the New Han Dynasty in case those aliens are unwilling to surrender to the New Han Dynasty. If that's really the case, Jia Xu won't be soft, and when the time comes, he will definitely make a killing move, which will definitely surprise the Xiliang alien clans and the Xiliang princes who thought they could be enemies of the New Han Dynasty.

In general, the aliens gathered hundreds of thousands of people, and those Xiliang princes also had hundreds of thousands of horses. Their target was too large, and their movements were completely under the surveillance of the New Han Army, and Jia Xu could know what was going on at the first time, so that he could calmly arrange a plan to deal with the enemy.

If you really want to fight. Jia Xu prepared and asked generals such as Ma Teng, Hua Xiong, and Xu Rong to lead the army to arrange a large array of bed crossbows outside the city, and arrange them in the places where the alien army must pass. It is used to deter the alien armies, and if they really dare to attack, they will know what hell is in the killing field. Then, let the three generals Ma Chao, Yan Liang, and Wen Chou lead the cavalry army to directly attack the camp of the Xiliang army, and completely crush the army of those Xiliang princes with a brutal and unreasonable momentum.

Anyway, when the time comes, all kinds of sophisticated weapons of the New Han Dynasty will come out, and they will be taught to cry their fathers and mothers.

In any case, all aspects of the New Han Dynasty were in a state of intense preparation, and a major war was about to break out.

In Youzhou, Zhao Yun has already assembled his headquarters military horses, more than 100,000 and 200,000 troops, and the original military horses in Youzhou, Gongsun Zhan's more than 100,000 and 200,000 horses, have already joined forces with Gao Shun at Shanhaiguan.

As a result, the strength of the New Han Army reached nearly 400,000 horses.

I have to say that the strength of the New Han Dynasty has become so strong that it is not comparable to ordinary princes. Even the court of the New Han Dynasty did not imagine it at the beginning. Who would have thought that even if the New Han Dynasty split many battlefields, it would still be more than able to deal with it and have more and more troops?

There are nearly 400,000 troops on the Youzhou side, and more than 300,000 troops on the Xiliang side. Luoyang, Bingzhou, Chang'an and other places are afraid that they can also levy more than 300,000 troops. This does not include the New Han Army, which has been guarding the border passes. And what about Jingzhou? There are also nearly 300,000 troops, and there are also 200,000 or 300,000 sailors in Dongting Lake Xinzhou. Qu'a City. What about Sun Ce's army? What about the military horses of Tai Shici of Jizhou that have just been recovered? These, if they all add up, I'm afraid it's close to two million New Han troops, right?

What's even more terrifying is that the New Han Army on any battlefield has the ability to stand alone. And Liu Yi, now he only needs to sit in Luoyang and support a certain battlefield according to the situation.

It seems that the general shape of the New Han Dynasty seems to be even more severe. However, Liu Yi in Luoyang can be regarded as the lightest period after coming to this era.

Well, let's talk about Zhao Yun, Xi Zhicai, Gongsun Zan and Gao Shun meeting Shanhaiguan.

Gao Shun was very surprised, he didn't expect that he just reported his concerns to Liu Yi by reporting the situation he had detected to Liu Yi, and it didn't take long for him to get so much attention. Zhao Yun, Gongsun Zan and Xi Zhicai were immediately dispatched, and so many military horses were sent.

Everyone gathered in the official hall of Shanhaiguan.

As a lieutenant of the New Han Dynasty and a former enemy division, Xi Zhicai has the right to mobilize all military horses. This time in the external war, for a long time to come, should be the drama Zhicai in the middle of the dispatch. It's up to Zhao Yun and Gongsun Zan to make a plan for them. Therefore, the generals pushed the show to the first seat. Let Xi Zhicai preside over this meeting.

"General Gao Shun, let's tell us about the specific situation you have detected first. So. We can make targeted arrangements. Xi Zhicai said to Gao Shun first.

Gao Shun nodded, and said to everyone with a solemn expression.

Wuhuan people, their assembly is very secretive, at first, Gao Shun did not know, until the Wuhuan people's assembly became large-scale, Gao Shun learned from the mouths of some merchants, and then sent people to go deep into the prairie outside the customs to reconnoitre.

Outside the gates, there are not only grasslands, but also mountains and forests, which are vast and vast.

The people sent by Gao Shun actually traveled hundreds of miles, about seven or eight hundred miles away, to find the place where the Wuhuan alien race had gathered, which was on the plain under the mountain called Chifeng in the north.

It is precisely because he has unknowingly gathered hundreds of thousands of nearly a million Wuhuan people together that Gao Shun will be worried. Because, the alien races outside the Guan, if they want to attack the Guannei, they are not only from Shanhaiguan, but can attack the New Han Dynasty from the section of the Great Wall that is more than 1,2000 miles long. It can be said that from the easternmost Shanhaiguan Pass to the Yamen Pass in the west, they are actually the sections of the Great Wall that the Wuhuan people can attack. And Gao Shun's military horses, including the military horses left by Gongsun Zan in the north of Youzhou, are only about 100,000 people. When 100,000 people wanted to defend the Great Wall, which was more than 2,000 miles long, and the Wuhuan people could even dispatch tens of millions of troops, Gao Shun really didn't dare to be calm, so he would immediately report to the court of the New Han Dynasty to Liu Yi.

"Hmph, these aliens, really don't shed tears when they don't see the coffin, they want to deceive my Gongsun Zhan into taking care of them, and want to take the opportunity to be a big man? Look at how they really want to die! Gongsun Zhan hated the alien race outside the Guanhai the most, and first couldn't bear the hatred and said: "Drama military division, Zilong, don't think about it, we will directly wave the army to kill it, don't destroy the aliens, and swear not to return to the division!" ”

"General Gongsun, there are too many military horses gathered by the Wuhuan people this time, if we rush out of the customs...... Gao Shun said quietly: "In addition, I suspect that the aliens are not only the Wuhuan people who have gathered, but also some other aliens are afraid that they are also gathering in secret." There is another issue that we also need to consider, Gongsun Du of Liaodong, he also has a lot of military horses, for the time being, I don't know what their attitude is. I thought, do you have to figure out their attitude first? In the unlikely event that our army is out of the pass, and they come to attack us again, then we will be attacked on all sides. ”

Gongsun Du, the word Shengji, is a native of Xiangping, Liaodong. Shao moved to Xuansu County with his father. At the beginning, he was a small official of Xuansu, and was later dismissed from office after being promoted to Shang Shulang and Jizhou Assassin History. In the sixth year of Zhongping (189), recommended by fellow villager Xu Rong, he was appointed by Dong Zhuo as the Taishou of Liaodong. After Gongsun Du took office, he strictly imposed strict punishments and strict laws, cracked down on powerful forces, and made the order administrative through, and his wings gradually increased. In the first year of the First Peace Period (190), Dong Zhuo rebelled in the Central Plains, and the warlords in various places had no time to look east. Gongsun Du took the opportunity to establish himself as the Marquis of Liaodong and the pastor of Pingzhou. Then he attacked Goguryeo in the east, attacked Wuhuan in the west, took the Liaodong Peninsula in the south, crossed the sea to take the Donglai counties in the north of the Jiaodong Peninsula, and expanded the territory; He also recruited talents, set up a museum to open a school, recruited displaced people, and traveled overseas, as if he was the king of Liaodong. Due to Gongsun Du's enterprising and painstaking management, the Liaodong region gained temporary tranquility in the war-torn years of the Three Kingdoms at the end of the Han Dynasty, and promoted the development of local production technology and feudal culture.

The above is an account of Gongsun Du in history. It seems that he is indeed a generation of heroes. However, in this life, there may be many changes. At least, he is now the Wuhuan Emperor in the west and Goguryeo in the east, and he does not have the strength to attack Wuhuan and destroy Goguryeo, and it is even more unlikely that he will cross the Bohai Sea to seize Donglai and other places in Shandong.

In fact, Gongsun Chan and Gongsun Du should also be regarded as brothers of the same clan and have a certain relationship.

Listening to Gao Shun talk about Gongsun Du, the prince of Liaodong, Xi Zhicai, Zhao Yun and others all looked at Gongsun Zhan.

"Well, don't look at me, Gongsun Du, he is indeed a member of my Gongsun family, and he can barely be regarded as a brother of the same clan, but we have no connection with him at all. Back then, my father-in-law Sun Zan fought with Yuan Shao, and he took the opportunity to dig it up. Of course, it was also because of our defeat of the Wuhuan people back then, so that many Wuhuan people were intimidated by our prestige and retreated to the northwest, so that Gongsun Du had an opportunity. Otherwise, Liaodong would still be the world of the Wuhuan people. A certain was defeated by Yuan Shao, and borrowed troops from him, but he did not agree, and then, basically, a certain had no dealings with him. Gongsun Chan explained to everyone the relationship with Gongsun Du.

"Gongsun Duxi has heard that he has some friendship with General Xu Rong, but it's hard to say now. But one thing should be certain. This person is quite eloquent, and Liaodong is quite good under his governance. This, hehe, Gongsun Du can seem to be a lot stronger than your Gongsun Zhan. Xi Zhicai looked at Gongsun Zhan with some jokes.

"Uh......" Gongsun Zhan's face turned red, and he said a little embarrassed: "Drama military division, don't laugh at me, when you won Youzhou, what you wanted was to recruit troops and buy horses, first, you can compete with Yuan Shao, and second, you also want to have a stronger strength and destroy the Wuhuan people outside the Guan." As for the rest, I really didn't think much about it, but now, hehe, we are just a military general, only caring about the war, and for the rest, please ask the drama military division to bother more, you give the order, and I will carry it out. ”

"Hehe......"

All the generals in the hall couldn't help but laugh for a while. (To be continued......)
