Chapter 87, elbows and armpits
Time flies, a few days later, in Luo County, Dingxiang County......
There is an army of tens of thousands of people gathering here, and the military flag in front of it is embroidered with a big "Yuan" character, and the flag representing the main general next to it is embroidered with the word "Han".
This is Yuan Shao's people and horses arranged in Bingzhou, these 10,000 people are naturally not all Yuan Shaojun's garrison in Dingxiang County, after all, the total number of Dingxiang places is so large, the population is not even more than a thousand, plus it is not eye-catching, only a certain number of people need to be stationed, after all, it is not far away from Yunzhong and Yanmen County, once something happens in Dingxiang, the two counties can immediately rush to help.
And now in this team, it is the people from Yunzhong County and Yanmen County who are included in it, and together they can be worth more than 10,000, and even the main general of this army is also from Yanmen on the order of Yuan Shao.
In fact, the current Yunzhong and Dingxiang counties are quite tasteless for Yuan Shao, and it is a pity to abandon the taste of chicken ribs, which is not only in the gap between Lu Bu and Xianbei people, but also the strategic significance of these two counties is not great, after all, if you want a bridgehead to enter the state, Yanmen is enough.
And don't look at Yuan Shao's huge power, but because of the particularity of the territory he occupies now, his battle line is too long, and at the same time facing so many forces and possible enemies, the manpower in his hands is a little stretched.
But in the face of the current situation in Bingzhou, he doesn't want to let go of such a good opportunity that may be a good opportunity to fish in troubled waters, so he can't accept Tian Feng's cautious behavior for a while, maybe it is also in the land of Hebei for a long time, for Han Fu and Gongsun Zhan's overwhelming advantage, so that although he has not really completed Hebei's hegemony, but Yuan Shao, who has a strong trend in this regard, also began to get a little carried away, so that he was stubborn and self-serving. The personality of others who can't listen to others is gradually revealed, and this time he is bent on going his own way, ordering Han Meng, a general under the garrison of Yanmen County, to gather 10,000 soldiers and horses from the three counties to go to the southwest of Dingxiang County. Preparing to wait for an opportunity in the dispute between Lü Bu and the Xiongnu, according to the current situation in Hebei and the garrisons needed by the three counties themselves, this 10,000 people is already the largest number that can be squeezed out.
Han Meng can be ranked at least in the top ten among the generals under Yuan Shao. This person fought bravely and resolutely, and was loyal to Yuan Shao, since Yuan Shao fled from Luoyang, he has been following him, and he has made great contributions in the wars he launched against Han Fu and Gongsun Zan several times. Yuan Shao was quite valued, and finally made him the lieutenant of Yanmen County and the three counties. And Yuan Shao was also selected to complete the task by him, after all, now the situation in Hebei is at a critical moment, Yan Liang, Wen Chou and others can't get out, and Han Meng is already the best candidate.
Han Meng had long been in Bingzhou, and there were many spies and scouts of Yuan Jun here, so he naturally heard that Lu Bu first destroyed Zhang Yang, and then annexed Shangdang and Taiyuan two counties. Later, there was news that Lu Bu officially declared war on the Southern Xiongnu in the north of Xihe County, and immediately raised troops to cross the river to the north, but he had not received Yuan Shao's order before, and although he had an idea at that time, he did not dare to send troops without authorization. Instead, he reported the news to Yuan Shao's side first, but there was always a delay in passing the news between each other, so there were many changes between Yuan Shao receiving the news and giving the order, and when he received the order, although he was paying attention, he couldn't directly participate in and influence after all, so he missed a good opportunity to add a mess at the beginning.
In the final analysis, although there is no shortage of generals under Yuan Shao's command, there is a lack of handsome talents who can judge the situation and dispatch well, and Gao Shun, Zhang Liao, and Lu Bu himself in Lu Bu's army are all such figures, Wang Cheng and others are also very valuable to cultivate, and it can be said that they represent a new wave of forces in Lu Bu's army.
Of course, Lu Bu had already guarded against him, and Zhang Liao, who stayed in the party, was prepared for them, but it didn't come in handy.
At this moment, Han Meng was going to lead these 10,000 soldiers and horses to break through to Wuyuan, and then enter the West River, just in time to rush to the Xiongnu Nandan Yuting.
At this time, Han Meng was also in a hurry, he didn't seize the opportunity before, which made him regretful, this time he couldn't miss it again anyway, at least he couldn't go back empty-handed.
Han Meng looked ahead from afar, and at the same time secretly made up his mind in his heart.
……
"Wenhou, Wenhou ......" In the morning, the sky was just dawning, Lu Bu had already woken up to perform martial arts in the school field, Fang Tian's halberd was dancing in full swing, but he heard Chen Gong's eager voice.
In fact, even if you can't hear the voice, just by the urgency of the tone, you can roughly guess who it is, after all, Jia Xu's personality is relatively tepid, and Chen Gong is more bold and direct, but he can't say who is good and who is bad, this is just a difference in behavior caused by different temperaments.
At this time, Lu Bu and others had already settled in the Xiongnu Nandan Yuting, and the Xiongnu nobles and commoners here who had not had time to escape or were not killed by Lu Bu's army had become their prisoners at this moment, and they might even become slaves in the future.
Lü Bu did not do it for the sake of humanitarianism, but took into account the practical need to reshape the Hetao.
Although the Hetao Plain is due to its natural climate and geographical location, whether it is used as a cultivated land or a pasture for grazing, it is very suitable, so the Huns grazing here did not destroy anything, but to return grazing to farming, it still takes a certain amount of time, just the handling of the cattle and sheep of the Huns is a big problem, fortunately, there are Jia Xu, Chen Gong and Lu Cui in this regard, they to consider, Lu Bu simply became the shopkeeper.
On the other hand, now the situation in Xihe County and even the entire Bingzhou is obvious, most of the Han people have gone to the border with Sili in the south, even if Lu Bu wants to reclaim the land in Hetao, he lacks manpower, just enough to capture those Huns.
The Huns left their weapons and horses, and the heavily armed Han army guarded them, so they couldn't do anything, and when the time came, they could only obediently become Lu Bu's free labor, and Lu Bu had already decided to do it in this battle with the Xiongnu.
As for people such as the old king of the Huns and some powerful nobles, who could not imagine that they would settle down and do things, Lu Bu killed them all mercilessly, which could not only deter other Huns and let them do things in peace, but also cut off future troubles for themselves.
Of course, Lu Bu could not take into account all the circumstances, so in order to avoid things beyond his control, he simply ordered that all Hun women who can marry Han men, whether they are soldiers or civilians, may be free from slavery. One is that there are more soldiers than civilians in most of the northern part of Xihe County, and the other is that the identity of soldiers is more secure.
And for this, of course, those Hun men can't stand it, you must know that there are not many outstanding women among the Huns, but now they have been snatched away by the Han people and left them with some crooked melons and cracked dates, but they can't resist.
In fact, Lu Bu doesn't like this kind of thing, but he is all for long-term consideration, Lu Bu knows that the best way to really subdue a nation is not necessarily to destroy it completely, but to integrate the nation, but in history, the integration of the Han and other ethnic groups is often accompanied by blood, and in this bloodshed is more of the blood of the Han people themselves, but now the difference is that the Han people occupy a dominant position, and he consciously guides, believing that he can do better.
Back to reality, he looked at a figure gradually walking on the side of the school field, it was exactly what he thought of Chen Gong, at this time, Chen Gong did not seem very anxious, but his face was very gloomy, and Lu Bu had a hunch that what he brought would never be good news.
