After Li Dian listened to Cao Pi's words, he immediately said: "Zhijinwu is useful to the last general, although he speaks, now the army has arrived in Yecheng, and on the order of Sikong, Zhijinwu has the right to oversee the whole army." After Li Dian finished speaking, he immediately took out a copper tiger-shaped object, which could be grasped with one hand, and Cao Pi found that this object could be divided into two from the middle.
Li Dian said: "This thing is Sikong's troop transfer tiger talisman, except for Sikong, any general who commands the whole army, all believe in this guard, if not, the army from the military marquis above, will not obey the dispatch." ā
After Cao Pi took over the treasure, he said to Li Dian: "General Lao Li took over the matter of consolidating the city defense of Yecheng, and I want to concentrate on building the Xiannong Altar, which requires 30,000 people and 5,000 soldiers. ā
Li Dian naturally took the order. Cao Pi immediately took Li Dian to Yecheng County Mansion, gathered the generals, said his plan, and then asked Li Dian to stay in the main hall to arrange the division of labor, and he left quietly and returned to Yang Mansion to rest.
In the following days, Cao Pi began to command the sergeants to supervise the construction of the Xiannong Altar by the people, Chen Lin still stayed by Cao Pi's side to help, in addition to the minfu and sergeants, Cao Pi also invited a lot of craftsmen from the Wei County clan, so that they could take the people to collect stones and cut wood. During this period, from time to time, there will be a battle report from Qingzhou, Yuan Tan's army has been defeated and retreated under the oppression of Cao Cao's tiger and leopard cavalry, and has run back to Nanpi, as for the reinforcements of the Wuhuan people, it is not mentioned in the battle report, which makes Cao Pi can't help but think of the pull and the scarf, maybe they have succeeded...
Li Dian came to Yecheng with a large army on the twentieth, the ninth year of Jian'an has reached the beginning of May, Qingzhou came to the good news, Cao Cao defeated Yuan Tan in the Qinghe near Nanpi, captured Yuan Tan alive and then beheaded him, the good news mentioned that Cao Cao's tiger and leopard cavalry will come to Yecheng within five days.
After the good news in the street, Cao Pi immediately summoned the generals and handed over the details of welcoming Cao Cao to Cao Ren, and at the same time asked Cao Xiu to send cavalry to reconnoiter the movements of Gao Gan and Yuan Xi in Youzhou.
At the same time as Cao Cao summoned the generals, in Youzhou, the two of them were riding horses, four rotating horses were beside the two, and they were followed by five riding horses, wearing birch fur hats, wearing furry animal fur coats, being hung with a long bow, hanging an arrow bag around the waist, and a long wooden pole hanging on the horse, with an irregularly shaped metal bump stuck in the head of the wooden pole, if Cao Pi was here, he should think that this was the predecessor of the mace.
These men who are dressed very differently from the Han people are the Wuhuan envoys sent by the Wuhuan Cliff King to see Cao Pi, in addition to this no one, there are two cavalry who have already gone to the front to explore the way, because some areas of Youzhou are still Yuan Xi's territory, if Yuan Xi meets their group of people, it will inevitably be a vicious battle, although they can run to Yan Rou and Xian Yufu, but this will delay the time to go to Yecheng, whether it is a recruitment, a scarlet or a Wuhuan messenger, they don't want to delay time on the road.
To the west of Youzhou, there is the Taihang Mountain Range, and then to the west is the Loess Plateau, which is not conducive to horses, but in the east of Taishang Mountain, it is true that in the plain area, they can gallop day and night without walking the road, which really avoids a lot of trouble and saves some time.
However, the premise of taking such a road is to send someone to explore the way, because the plain has no direction, and the people who explore the path in front should find out the path, and then leave some marks such as half a tree trunk or arrows on the way to guide future generations. This is the reason why there are seven people in the Wuhuan envoy group, but two of them are exploring the way.
At this time, it was already dusk, the sky was gradually darkening, and he smiled at the tallest Wuhuan knight beside him: "Brother Bo Xizang, it's almost night, the knight will enter Jizhou after walking a hundred miles, don't be in a hurry, you can find a hidden place nearby to rest for a night tonight." ā
The man named Bo Xizang smiled and said, "Recruit the warriors, we will listen to you." ā
At this time, the sound of horses' hooves in front of them came, and the two Wuhuan knights hurried back, it stands to reason that they should return to the team after dark, and when they come back in this way, they must have encountered something urgent.
Bo Xizang asked in Wuhuan dialect: "Rusa, Runu, why do you come back now, you should come back to make peace with us when it gets dark." ā
One of the knights said: "Bo Xizang, we have encountered a group of defeated troops who have fled from Qingzhou, they were originally Yuan Shang's subordinates, and later took refuge in Yuan Tan, and now Yuan Tan has been killed by Han officials, and they are now about to take refuge in Yuan Shang, who has fled to Youzhou." ā
Zhao Zhao, who once commanded the Wuhuan cavalry, naturally understood Wuhuan words, and immediately laughed: "Yuan Tan was defeated so quickly, it was really the death of the Yuan family!" Brother Bo Xizang, quickly followed me to Yecheng, and after seeing Sikong and Zhijinwu, he gave the king of Wuhuan Qiao an official, and then attacked with the imperial army back and forth, pacifying Youzhou in one fell swoop! ā
Bo Xizang was silent when he heard this, he was the lord (i.e., leader) of a tribe in Wuhuan. Now the Wuhuan tribes are scattered in Liaodong, Liaoxi, Youbeiping, Yuyang, Guangyang, Shanggu, Dai, Yanmen, Taiyuan, Shuofangbian ten counties, the population has reached 300,000, all the people who can ride horses and shoot arrows in the prime of life are at least more than 30,000, even in the Xianbei who has risen in power outside the Guan, they dare not insult Wuhuan, and now they seem to be invincible The Yuan family of the northern clan has declined, leaving only one Youzhou, with the strength of Wuhuan, if Youzhou is annexed, into the pass, with the power of the Wuhuan cavalry, I can't fight with the Han people.
He is the lord of the tribe, and his vision is naturally different from the ordinary Wuhuan people, he knows very well the fertility of the land in the Guannei, not only has exquisite clothes, but also beautiful women, if he takes this opportunity to enter Youzhou, unite the remnants of the Yuan family, and then unite with the Xianbei, Fuyu, and Huiqian ethnic groups, plus Gongsun Kang, who sent people from Liaodong to canonize the King of Qiao, can not stand firm in Youzhou, plus the King of Qiao, maybe he will be able to establish a country in Guannai......
"Before, King Qiao didn't want to send troops to help the Yuan family, because he was afraid of helping the Yuan family to repel the imperial army and rise again with the north, and now the eldest son of the Yuan family's three sons, Yuan Tan, who is the most warlike in war, has died, leaving a brave and unscrupulous Yuan Shang and a weak Yuan Xi, no matter how short the rate is, as long as the army of the Han people is blocked, with the prestige of the Yuan family in the north, they will definitely be able to gain a foothold again, and they can only rely on our Wuhuan people without soldiers and generals...."The more Bo Xizang thought about it, the hotter his heart became, and he raised his eyes and glanced at the trick in front of him, Unconsciously glanced at the weapon hanging from the side of the mount.
Seeing that he didn't reply for a long time, his face was cloudy, he glanced at the blade again, and suddenly sneered: "Bo Xizang, what do you want?" (To be continued.) Mobile phone users, please browse and read, a better reading experience.
