Compared with the counterinsurgency, Ma Teng was ordered to expel Xianbei, and this task was the most important.

Xianbei attacked the three states of Youhe and Liang this time, although he only took advantage of the fire to rob, and did not want to fight to the death with the Han Dynasty. But Xianbei's strength is not comparable to those rabble rebels.

Xianbei is now in a general trend, and the west and north of the Han Dynasty have been almost completely occupied by them, and the territory under their control is not much smaller than that of the Han Dynasty. That is, their population is too small, and if the population is large, they can definitely become the henchmen of the Han.

Although Xianbei is strong, the current Han is different, and it is not the situation of being bullied by others before. The three states of Youliang and Liang are all borders, and they all have legions stationed there, just to protect the security of the border.

Therefore, as soon as the Xianbei people attacked, the legions stationed on the border also took action. The Northern Army, the Northwest Army, and the Western Army launched an attack on Xianbei's army at the same time.

Although the Han army launched an attack, the Han army rarely had cavalry, and even the Han army's army was relatively strong in combat after training. But they can't catch the Xianbei people at all, and they are helpless.

The iron cavalry of the Xianbei people was raging in the three states of Youji and Liang, and the army of the Han Dynasty had almost nothing to do. In the end, they could only resist the city and try to reduce their losses.

But the Xianbei people just came to take advantage of the fire to rob, they didn't attack the city at all, they just wanted to get a little cheap and left. Now that the Han army is defending the city, they can be regarded as having fun.

Seeing that Xianbei people were so arrogant, the soldiers of the Han Dynasty were quite angry, and they all tried to come up with ideas, wanting to give Xianbei a taste. But most people's ideas can't bring any trouble to Xianbei.

Dong Zhuo, who is very famous in history, was born in Liangzhou, and was also in the legion that rounded up the Xianbei people this time. But because they couldn't catch up with the Xianbei people, they were able to defend Wuwei City. The current Dong Zhuo, who is a very fleshy young man, saw the Xianbei people raging, he was quite angry, and he also wanted to give Xianbei a taste.

If you don't want to say it, people who can make a name for themselves in history don't have a simple look. Even this is the case with this famous villain.

Dong Zhuo was born in a strong family in Liangzhou, and he has been brave and ruthless since he was a child, and he is definitely a ruthless character. A person like him knew the truth of seeking wealth and danger, and when he saw that others couldn't help the Xianbei people, he went to the chief officer of the legion.

Dong Zhuo is also a celebrity in the legion, and he is very familiar with the chief officers in the legion, especially Gao Qiang, the highest commander of the legion, who has the most favorable impression of him. When Gao Qiang heard that he had a way to make Xianbei retreat, he was quite curious.

"Zhong Ying, if you have any ideas, just say it, and we can also help you with your staff."

"yes."

"yes."

The commanders of several legions surrounded Dong Zhuo, wanting to listen carefully to what good ideas he had.

"Ladies and gentlemen, that's what I think." These chief officials are all acquaintances, and Dong Zhuo is not polite, so he said directly, "Xianbei's current strength is only about 100,000, and now that they are attacking three states at the same time, they are almost out of the nest, and there must be no one in their family." ”

Gao Qiang listened to Dong Zhuo's words, thought for a while, and nodded in recognition of Dong Zhuo's statement.

"Since there is no one in Xianbei's hometown, we will send someone to kill his hometown directly now, I don't believe that Xianbei will not retreat!"

"Siege Wei to save Zhao!" In Gao Qiang's mind, such a word suddenly appeared.

I have to say that Dong Zhuo's idea is a good idea, as long as it succeeds, Xianbei will withdraw 100%. But this is a good idea, but it is quite dangerous. Fighting alone in a foreign land, it is impossible to have reinforcements to support it, and if you don't get it right, you have to throw your life somewhere. Besides, no one knows how many troops the Xianbei people left in their hometown, and the Han Dynasty lacked horses, so it was impossible to send too many people. If you count it this way, the task is even more dangerous.

"Zhong Ying, you're a good idea. However, this place is very far away from the Xianbei royal court, and there are many dangers along the way, and it is quite difficult to find someone who can undertake this task. ”

Since Dong Zhuo said this idea, he wanted to complete it by himself, and when he heard this, he directly asked for an order, "Sir, give me two hundred horses, and I will complete this task." ”

Dong Zhuo was born in a strong background, has a lot of wealth, and usually makes a lot of money, so he has a good personal relationship with these chiefs. Those chief officials didn't want him to die, so they persuaded him one after another. But Dong Zhuo had already made up his mind, and those chief officers had no choice, so in the end, Gao Qiang directly ordered him to gather 300 cavalry and personally send him on the road.

Dong Zhuo's raid on the royal court this time is a surprise army, and what he pays attention to is a fast one. So they traveled lightly and brought a total of three days of dry food, in order to feel the royal court as soon as possible.

The royal court of Xianbei is in the Danhan Mountain, which is 300 miles north of Gaoliu, that is, the Daqing Mountain of Inner Mongolia in later generations. It's not close to the place where Dong Zhuo is staying now, even if he keeps running, he has to run for ten days and eight days.

"My lord, it seems to be a small nomadic tribe in front of you."

Dong Zhuo heard the words and saw that it was really true. At such a distance, three days of dry food is definitely not enough. Dong Zhuo's plan is to eat the enemy. I didn't expect to be so lucky, as soon as I arrived on the grassland, I ran into a small tribe.

"My lord, the dry food brought by the brothers is almost gone, let's just destroy this tribe."

"Yes, my lord, let's go!"

Those who came with Dong Zhuo were all ruthless characters, who wanted to kill people at every turn.

Dong Zhuo also had this idea, but he couldn't be so impulsive. Facing the enemy head-on, there will definitely be casualties, which he absolutely does not want to see.

In order to preserve his precious combat power to attack the royal court, Dong Zhuo suppressed his temperament, hid with his subordinates, and waited until it was dark before making a move.

Small tribes, there are not many people in total, that is, a dozen tents. One or twenty people against a tent, or take advantage of it, it is quite easy. So as soon as it got dark, this unlucky little tribe was wiped out.

"Yes, although the tribe is not big, it is quite wealthy."

For today's harvest, Dong Zhuo is quite satisfied, the small tribe is not big, but there are thousands of cattle and sheep, this is nothing, but they found more than a hundred war horses, which is a big harvest.

Dong Zhuo slaughtered cattle and sheep to make dry food, and then set off again with those war horses. In this way, Dong Zhuo led more than 300 cavalry and wreaked havoc on the grassland. Although it is not as big as Xianbei's scourge in the territory of the Han Dynasty, they let go of it, and the scourge is not light.

After using the same means to destroy several small tribes, Dong Zhuo's team was much larger, but the speed of their march was much faster. In the past, Dong Zhuo and the others only had one horse, but now they have at least two horses, and most of them have three horses. Riding it backwards like this is certainly much faster than a horse.

After a long journey of more than ten days, Dong Zhuo and the others came to the royal court of Xianbei. Don't look at the Xianbei people who live as nomads, but their royal court is a big city. Although the scale is not as large as the capital of the Han Dynasty, it is not as good as other cities.

Most of the Xianbei people followed Tanshihuai to attack the Han Dynasty, but this does not mean that the royal court of the Xianbei people is unguarded. After all, this is Xianbei's lair, and it is normal to leave some people to guard it.

But Dong Zhuo obviously didn't think that there were still guards in the royal court, so he was caught off guard. Especially when I saw that just in front of the city gate, the number of guards looked like hundreds, so that there were at least thousands of troops in this city. In his heart, the drum beat even more.

Three hundred against thousands, Dong Zhuo has no chance of winning at all. But things have come to this point, and it is too late for him to retreat.

"What to do?" Now Dong Zhuo is in a dilemma.

With his more than 300 people, if he wants to attack the royal court with thousands of troops, it is almost like looking for death. But if you don't fight the royal court, will this trip be in vain?
