"Prince, the concubine can write a handwritten letter for the prince and Pingliang Hou Xu Ye stationed in Liangzhou, so that he can know the right and wrong of loyalty, so that he can serve the prince! As for whether it will succeed or not, the concubine is not sure. ”

"What?" Zhao Xun was slightly stunned, "Waiting for Xu Ye in peace?" This person is a talent, who has made a lot of contributions to quelling the rebellion in Liangzhou in the past, and is now the left general of Liangzhou. Will he listen to your advice? Is he connected to you? ”

Seeing Zhao Xun stunned and asked, Murong Xiyue's face turned pale, and she hurriedly explained: "It's not like that, but in the past, he was a general of the Praetorian Guard, and my father discovered his talent and helped him." When he was in Luoyang, he was secretly ordered by my father to give up the control of the Praetorian Guard, did not fight to the death with Situ Lei, and became a general under Situ Lei. My father once said that this man was credible. The concubine just didn't know if this move had any effect, so she wanted the prince to give it a try, which could be regarded as a contribution to the prince. The concubine has not had any contact with peace and coolness, and she did not tell the prince before, also because the prince has been fighting outside for many years. ”

Zhao Xun took Xiyue's little hand and said with a smile: "Don't be restrained, I don't blame you, you really helped me when you said this." I originally intended to win over this person, so that he could become our internal response to our attack on Liangzhou. Okay, don't be so cautious in the future, remember, you have to call my grandfather. As he spoke, he reached out and pinched Xiyue's little nose.

"Yuzuki remembers!" Xiyue was relieved when she saw Zhao Xun say this. The last few days have been her happiest and happiest days, and she doesn't want to let her happiness happen because of some small things. Before marriage, he did not have such a connection with the enemy general, and he did not say it until after marriage, which inevitably made people suspicious. This is also what Murong Xiyue is worried about, but fortunately, Zhao Xun didn't care about this.

Immediately, Zhao Xun immediately asked Hawkeye Si Feige to pass the book, and passed Murong Xiyue's handwritten letter to Li Chenfeng, the coach of Beisai, so that he could contact Lianghou Xu Ye, the general of Liangzhou's painful soldiers, and it was best to subdue the other party.

Pingliang waited for Xu Ye, and Zhao Xun had a friendship when he entered Luoyang that year. At the beginning, Zhao Xun also wanted to win over this general, who was famous for his military exploits and was idle by Murong Cheng and Situ Lei. However, I don't know if Zhao Xun's reputation was not high at the beginning or something else, Ping Lianghou rejected Zhao Xun's wooing. However, the original Pinglianghou also expressed great appreciation to Zhao Xun for subduing the northern provinces of Youzhou.

Now, this peaceful and cool wait is under Situ Lei, and is arranged by Situ Lei in Liangzhou. It is estimated that he also wants to rely on the prestige of Pinglianghou to deter the local Haoqiang and Qianghu tribes in Liangzhou. However, Zhao Xun knew that the governor of Liangzhou was Situ Fei, and this Situ Fei was in a hurry to grasp the real power of Liangzhou and work hard for himself to seek the position of King Yong. And this Pinglianghou was extremely dissatisfied with Situ Fei's wanton exclusion of dissidents in Liangzhou and the promotion of his cronies who were not very capable of governing Liangzhou. Between the two, the contradiction is not small. If it weren't for the fact that this Xu Ye was not famous, which would cause the Liangzhou army to riot, I am afraid that this Xu Ye would have been idle by Situ Fei a long time ago. However, Rao is like this, this Xu Ye is still gradually being discharged from the core of Liangzhou by Situ Fei.

…………

The snow fell, the sky and the earth were white, and Hu Cong, the leader of the Yishan Clan, was in an extremely gloomy mood at the moment. Under the powerful attack of the Zhao army and the food crisis, five of the more than 30 tribes in the central part of Beisai have been wiped out and eight have surrendered. It is still under the control of the Qianghu tribe, which is getting smaller and smaller. Even, the cavalry of the Zhao army has already appeared near the Yishan Department. And the anti-Zhao alliance he formed has lost its due role at this moment.

The Yishan Ministry sent a request for help to Liangzhou, but Situ Fei refused again. However, Situ Fei promised to support a batch of grain, grass and living necessities, but Yishan and other tribes needed to trade livestock and war horses. In a word, Situ Fei is not an idiot. The Yishan Department and the Anti-Zhao Alliance are in a critical situation at the moment, and they need him, but he can't support the other party in vain, he needs the other party to fight with the Zhao army, but he also needs to be real.

It is a pity that whether it is the grain and grass materials that Situ Fei is going to sell to the Anti-Zhao Alliance or the livestock that the Anti-Zhao Alliance is going to trade with Liangzhou, they were all seized by the Zhao army with a tough attack. Even if they killed livestock and burned grain, they didn't leave the anti-Zhao alliance at all.

Although Situ Fei protested against Zhao Jun's atrocities against the Liangzhou caravan, Zhao Jun still trumpeted that anyone who traded with the Qianghu tribe was a traitor who betrayed the interests of the Han people, and everyone was punished. Originally, the Qianghu tribe in this northern place had been plundering and harassing the people in the southeast of Liangzhou, and Zhao Jun's move was naturally supported by the people and merchants in the southeast of Liangzhou. So much so that Situ Fei had to break his teeth and swallow it in his stomach. What's more, Situ Fei lost not only a lot of grain and grass materials, but also unspeakable losses.

Canglin City, Zhao Jun's North Road Station. Because of the heavy snowfall, the half-built city and the military camp in front of the city that had been defended for more than ten miles were white. Canglin City, which is a newly built city on the basis of a tribal station, has a side length of more than three miles. It was built together with the Han people who migrated with the logistics team, and the Qianghu people who were given the status of ordinary people were built together with the Qianghu people who were subjugated to the tribes, and it was also regarded as building a hometown for themselves. Of course, in addition to these people, there were countless slaves.

In front of Canglin City, there was the military camp of Li Chenfeng's army. That is, the headquarters of the Zhao army attacking the Qianghu tribes was also to protect the construction of the rear city. You must know that in the north and south of the country, there are dozens of cities built at the same time, of different sizes.

"Okay, General Xue and General Qin have done a good job, now, whether it is Situ Lei in Liangzhou or the so-called anti-Zhao alliance opposite us, it is a big loss. Come, for the actions of the two generals, we will drink this cup full. Li Chenfeng's bold voice sounded from the handsome tent.

Xue Qinglan said with a smile: "I don't dare to take credit for this, if it weren't for Li Shuai in the north to make this anti-Zhao alliance miserable and have no food and drink, why would they go to trade with Situ Lei." However, this time Situ Fei was definitely angry. There are a lot of grain and grass materials, enough for 100,000 troops to spend a month, and there are 5,000 Liangzhou troops escorted alone. As a result, the 5,000 Liangzhou elites who had become caravan guards and dart divisions were suddenly overwhelmed by our cavalry. ”

"It seems that in order to hide their identity, these soldiers don't even have armor and equipment. This is the most elite veteran of the Liangzhou army, according to the captives, they are the army under the Liangzhou rebellion when Xu Ye pacified the rebellion in Liangzhou. In the entire Liangzhou, there are only more than 20,000. As a result, we solved a quarter of them at once. Haha, what a pleasure! ”

"In addition to 30,000 or 40,000 loads of grain, we also have 10,000 long knives, 5,000 bows and arrows, and 150,000 arrows. In addition, there are some daily necessities such as salt tea. In addition, we also intercepted 20,000 horses and 30,000 livestock from the Qianghu people. The rest is some gold and silver things, which are converted into more than 200,000 silver coins. ”

Li Chenfeng said with a smile: "I'll just say, it's obviously a secret business, why did Situ Fei shout loudly after we intercepted it, it turned out that the loss was so big." However, his loss this time is much more convenient for our operation against Liangzhou. ”

When Qin Daolin heard this, his eyes lit up, and he said continuously: "Li Shuai, is the lord ready to make a move to Liangzhou?" It's really good that the land of Liangzhou is a big place, but Situ Lei has been conscripted one after another, and the harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes have been increased, which has made the local bandits in Liangzhou continue. The soldiers and soldiers of Liangzhou were even more vulnerable, which made the local powerful clans and Qianghu tribes resist the government and oppress the people. The last general has long wanted to get Liangzhou back from the hands of the so-called Liangzhou Metropolitan Governor. ”

Li Chenfeng shook his head and said: "Now is not the time to start a war with Liangzhou, the lord is asking us to gather the civil and military forces of Liangzhou to facilitate our future actions." This Liangzhou Metropolitan Governor has some ability, but unfortunately, now all his thoughts are fascinated by the position of King Yong. Therefore, he did not pay attention to the livelihood of the people in Liangzhou, but devoted all his energy to seizing the power of the Daozhou. In order to control Liangzhou, Situ Fei, the governor of Liangzhou, was in a hurry to replace the original cultural relics officials in Liangzhou with his cronies, which made Liangzhou's civil and military dissatisfied. In addition, in order to expand his strength, Situ Fei recruited troops and increased taxes, and the people and ordinary merchants in Liangzhou expressed their dissatisfaction. ”

"And now this Situ Fei and the property and armor of Liangzhou are trading with the enemies of Liangzhou, and as a result, he has lost his troops and lost his generals, and he has gained nothing. You say, can the cultural relics officials in Liangzhou have a good impression of Situ Fei? Especially this time, the five thousand black-armored cavalry of the Liangzhou Army were all gone, I think those generals of the Liangzhou Army will definitely be extremely annoyed. The black-armored cavalry of Liangzhou was the cavalry brought up by Pingliang in the past, and they made great achievements in the rebellion in Liangzhou. Now that Pinglianghou is also in Liangzhou, presumably, at this moment, he has been completely disappointed in Situ Fei, who was already dissatisfied. ”

When Qin Daolin heard that there was no war, he couldn't help but sigh and said, "Although you can't start a war directly, it is also extremely good to be able to bring Ping Lianghou over." As long as Pingliang waits for us, then it will be too advantageous for us to attack Liangzhou in the future. ”

"Li Shuai, the lord's secret letter!" At this moment, Nangong Hao, the deputy general of the army, walked in quickly and handed a letter to Li Chenfeng.

Li Chenfeng didn't dare to hesitate, his face tightened, he quickly opened it, and then said with a smile: "Okay, the lord's letter this time has made our actions more certain." ”

After reading it, Li Chenfeng smiled at Xue Qinglan and Qin Daolin: "Two generals, this time you came from the south, it's really just right." The lord has decreed that the war here is in charge of our decision, and the final battle of the attack will be decided at our discretion. In addition, the letter of the lord was accompanied by a handwritten letter written by the princess Princess Xinna in the name of the Dayan royal family, which was extremely beneficial to us to persuade Xu Ye. Therefore, the coach decided that we would conquer the whole territory of Beisai before the year, which was regarded as a New Year's gift from our team owner. Two generals, do you have the confidence to fight in the snow? ”

Xue Qinglan and Qin Daolin looked at each other, and laughed in unison: "Okay, it's really good, how can you be happy by harassing this Qianghu tribe every day." Although Li Shuai gave the order, we will attack from the north and south, and we will definitely be able to subdue the Qianghu tribes in one battle. ”

Li Chenfeng immediately asked people to spread out the map, pointed to the more than 20 tribes on the map, and said, "There are still more than 20 tribes that have not surrendered to us, but among them, there are already three of our shadows. Therefore, if we act, especially in the snow, the Qianghu tribe will certainly not find out. ”

"This time, we dispatched from the north and south at the same time, and the soldiers of General Xue and General Qin in the south divided into two routes, attacking from the east and west respectively. Our Northern Route Army, on the other hand, is divided into three routes, dispatching from the middle to both sides, and attacking you separately. Except for the Yishan tribe and the three subjugating tribes, the remaining twenty-one tribes are basically vulnerable, and after encountering our sudden action, it is estimated that the surrendering ones are still in the majority. Then, after conquering these twenty-one tribes, our Fifth Route Army will form a large encirclement of five-pointed stars and encircle the Yishan Division. Li Chenfeng pointed to the map and said one by one.

"Li Shuai rest assured, the last general will definitely complete the task and attack the Yishan Department with the army."

Li Chenfeng said in a deep voice: "This Yishan is a die-hard element, and he is also the initiator of the Anti-Zhao Alliance. We must not have any appeasement towards Yishan. Therefore, there is no one left in this Yishan Department. We must let the Qianghuyi tribes living in Liangzhou know what will happen to those who resist our Zhao army. It can also be regarded as laying a foundation for our army to attack Liangzhou in the future and deter those Qianghu tribes. ”

…………

Ten days later, in the middle of the night, the cold wind howled, and the snow that had fallen for two days finally stopped. However, the howling cold wind makes the weather even colder, making it difficult to adapt.

However, the howling cold wind made some of the noise drown out and made some activities more convenient. In a valley not far from the tribe, there was a bunch of small black dots, but if you looked closely, a group of soldiers and horses were resting here. It could be seen that those soldiers were very tired, and many of them fell asleep in the snow directly in this snow.

In the snow, several people stood solemnly, their black armor still stained with some snowflakes blown up by the cold wind, but they didn't care about the cold north wind at all.

"I don't know how the people sent to contact the tribe? If they can't make absolutes, we're going to kill them. One said in a deep voice.

"There shouldn't be any problem, the last time they went to Canglin City to buy food, they surrendered, and besides, the sons of the leaders of their tribes and some nobles have already moved into my army, how can they regret it? However, even regret will not help. Our army is here, and they will not know it. If they submit, then we will rest in their camp. If not, then get rid of them. ”

"Besides, we've already wiped out three tribes, and we don't care about one more. If it weren't for the sake of the raiders Yishanbu, we wouldn't have talked to them in detail and rushed over and destroyed them. Nangong Hao on the side looked up at the sky and said lightly. Nangong Hao is a member of the North Road Army, and he has already started to act three days ago, fighting in the snow, all the way non-stop, so although the three tribes were destroyed, the news did not spread. And this is too close to the tribe and the Yishan Department, so I came to the final detail.

"General Nangong, you said, we have been operating for three days, will the people of the Yishan Department find out?"

Nangong Hao smiled: "Probably not, at the beginning of our operation, it was snowing heavily." Moreover, in the time before this, our army did not act in any heavy snowy weather, and if you think about it, this Yishan Department will not find out. In addition, after we set off, we broke the enemy all the way, destroying three tribes in a row, and the finishing work was all done by foot soldiers, didn't those three tribes also not have the slightest discovery? Besides, before the operation, our army's scouts had already braved the snow to pretend to be Qianghu people, even if there were wandering sentinels, it should be solved. Besides, this cold wind is howling, and there are too few people who can be on duty at night. At the same time, it can also cover up the traces of the actions of our army. ”

The general has a point, but it's getting colder. However, after this battle, this land of Beisai will belong to the territory of my Zhao army. These damned Qianghu tribes have repeatedly harassed the people of my Dayan, and this time they were wiped out in one fell swoop. Completely solve these Huyi tribes, border scourge. The first lieutenant said coldly.

Nangong Hao took 10,000 cavalry and 10,000 Eight Banners of the First Town as a way, and 15,000 foot soldiers in the rear to deal with the aftermath. The cavalry broke the enemy, and the infantry finished. As Nangong Hao said, the Zhao army's actions were too sudden, and the Qianghu tribes were not prepared in the heavy snow, so Nangong Hao's three targets were rushed into the camp by 20,000 cavalry without the slightest defense, and they were broken in one fell swoop.

After a little resistance, the three tribes had no choice but to surrender. There are two main reasons for this, one is the lack of food for the tribe, and the other is that Zhao Jun preached the benefits of annexation to ordinary herdsmen. For the Qianghu tribesmen, the raids of the Zhao army in the past two months also shattered the confidence of these Qianghu cavalrymen to resist. For these defeated tribes, the Zhao army took measures such as executing tribal leaders and nobles, disbanding the tribal soldiers, and keeping them in guard, and soon after, they were dismantled one by one, or arranged to merge states, or arranged to other parts of Beisai.

"Report ...... General Nangong, the tribe has surrendered, and the spies we arranged for the tribe lord have not found any signs of the tribe gathering troops. Mach in the hands of their tribe arrived, asking to meet the general. ”

"Sue him, let him prepare some food for the army, and we will continue to act later. In addition, tell him that our army has taken action, and the whole army of the north and south has been dispatched, so that he can prepare to hand over to the follow-up infantry. Nangong Hao said lightly, but there was still a trace of joy in his tone.

"Yes, General!"

"General Nangong, aren't we resting here? Keep moving? Yi Pi said puzzledly, Nangong Hao also said that he wanted to rest here, why did he change it after a while?
