"This brother, your boxing technique is so interesting, next time I must learn it."

After saying this to Xie Xun, Lu Bu strode out of the courtyard. Its majestic heroic posture and chic steps, if it is seen by the young star-chasing girls of later generations, it will definitely be a burst of amazement and even fainting.

"Okay, the guests are gone, everyone has something to do, let's go and get busy!"

Zhang Yan said, glanced at Xie Xun with concern, and said:

"Retreat, your 'Seven Wounds Fist' has a lot of trouble, why did you use it again?"

This "Seven Wounds Fist" is Xie Xun a few years ago, feeling that he lost his mother at a young age, lost his father at a young age, and even Zhang Jiao, the "great sage and good teacher" who regarded him as a god, suddenly died of a serious illness, and the great cause of the Yellow Turban was empty in a blink of an eye.

Although it is used, the power of the "Seven Wounds Fist" is extremely huge, and it is difficult to compare it in the world. However, everything in this world has its limitations. The limitations of the "Seven Wounds Fist" are:

- Hurt others before hurting yourself!

In the words of Master Da Tai of the Medical Dao, it is called:

- Hurt yourself first, then others. Seven injuries in one practice, all seven are injured!

"Big brother, little brother is in a hurry, and he won't be in the future."

Xie Xun, the lion king, has always been majestic in front of his subordinates. Only in the face of the righteous brother's arrogance will this tame appearance be revealed. Zhang Mad was secretly happy about this, and said a few more words, which made Xie Xun retreat.

However, when the generals went to work, looking back, the arrogance was already sinking like water. He asked his guards to find the 100-member leader of the scout team who was in charge of enemy reconnaissance and scolded him.

Now the leader of the 100 people in charge of the scout team is still He Man, who is nicknamed "Flying Heavenly Daoist". This person was originally and his brother He Yi, both of whom were the right-hand men of the Yellow Turban "Bo Cai Shuai". Later, "Bo Caishuai" was defeated, and the two brothers protected Xie Xun and came to join Zhang Qiang.

After Zhang Qiang appointed Xie Xun as the commander of a thousand people and took charge of the army, he naturally transferred the two brothers He Yi and He Man away from Xie Xun, so as not to make the mountain faction in the army too strong and threaten.

Poor He Man, as the commander of the scout elite soldiers second only to the four thousand-man commanders, was scolded so much that he was bloody, but he didn't even dare to say a word of defense.

In the hearts of many old people of Taiping Dao who still insist to this day, Zhang Qi, the "little heavenly master", is the heir of Zhang Jiao, the "great virtuous teacher" back then. Being scolded by the "Little Heavenly Master" is nothing, for them, the old people who still believe in it, they may feel quite honored.

After scolding, Zhang Qiang felt much more comfortable. Seeing He Man, the leader of the scouts, standing in front of him without saying a word, he looked panicked, and he also knew that it was impossible for the army to be without flaws. At that moment, the scout team was rewarded with two fat sheep as an additional reward for the scout's hard work for many days, and Zhang Madness sent this loyal subordinate away.

Give a slap to a date. This kind of means of dominating is quite skillful. As long as the mistakes made by his subordinates are not principled, insolence is usually not punished too severely.

Occupying the court of Meiji was only the first step to completely pacify the Southern Xiongnu. Fortunately, the Southern Xiongnu had just experienced a fierce internal strife. Many aristocratic ministers were killed or expelled by the coup d'état. Otherwise, the resistance to insolent action will be at least twice as great as it is now.

However, even with such a favorable background, Zhang Qi still felt that there was a serious shortage of troops at this moment.

For this battle, Zhang Qiang mobilized a total of 7,000 people in the Taihang Mountains. Among them, there were 3,000 soldiers and 4,000 auxiliaries. Of course, the auxiliaries of the Taixing Army can actually be sent directly to the battlefield and directly participate in battles that are not too fierce.

Then, in order to conceal the division of the state and the limit on the number of horses in the army, among the 7,000 people, only 2,000 elite people really participated in the surprise attack on the Meiji royal court. The remaining 5,000 people were hoarded in the former "Linshui County" administrative office, which was hundreds of miles away from the "Baibo Valley", and was led by the general Ban as the rear response of the army.

Among the 2,000 people who participated in the surprise attack, including Lejin's cavalry, Xie Xun's thousand-man team, Dian Wei's heavy armor team, and Zhao Yun's cavalry team. There were 1,600 soldiers and more than 500 auxiliaries.

Among them, Dian Wei's heavy armor team and Xie Xun's thousand-man team are both infantry fighters with low riding skills. Even with the help of bilateral stirrups and Takahashi saddles, they were only able to ride on horseback, and they were considered a group of mounted infantry. The main force of the raid that was really relied on by insolence was still the cavalry team of Lejin.

As for the 1,000 Bingzhou rangers provided by Guo Tai, the leader of the Taiping Dao in Bingzhou, because the organization was too poor and the armor was scarce, the combat effectiveness was not valued by arrogance. What Zhang Mad really cared about was the nearly two thousand horses brought by these Rangers. Without these nearly 2,000 horses, the arrogant surprise army would not have enough horses to transport the baggage of the accompanying army, so they could only walk to the court of the Meiji King on their legs.

Now, the royal court of the Southern Xiongnu has been captured, and the powerful nobles of the Southern Xiongnu are either dead or captured. The strength of the entire Southern Xiongnu tribe is in a vacuum. At this time, the number of Native Rangers of the Merge State can come in handy.

These state rangers may not be able to fight head-on, and they are also weak in organization for long-distance runs, but they are still quite good as servant troops and thugs. Therefore, Zhang Qiang very boldly planned a nest outing, and sent Le Jin, Zhao Yun, and Xie Xun to carry out a large-scale sweep of the surrounding Xiongnu tribes.

The Taixing army launched a victorious pursuit in a very timely manner. Many of the larger Xiongnu tribes have not yet received the news that the royal court has been broken, or have just received the news, and they are not ready for it. Caught off guard, more than 2,000 cavalry easily defeated more than a dozen large Xiongnu tribes with a scale of more than 500 tents.

Now, the arrival of Lu Bu's department made Zhang Qiang a little vigilant. However, the more than 200 elite Han army knights under Lu Bu also made Zhang Qiang extremely coveted.

Not to mention anything else, these two hundred Han army knights, killing the Huns, must be more sophisticated and efficient than the Tai marching army. Zhang Mad showed favor to Lu Bu, that is, he took a fancy to this.

Regarding the invitation of the arrogant attack on the Xiongnu tribe, Lu Bu did not hesitate and agreed to it. Being able to plunder unscrupulously is the favorite order of all Han troops. Even if the other party was just a Xiongnu barbarian who was known for his poverty, there might be no property in the tent of ordinary herdsmen, but the goods in the tent of the Xiongnu nobles would not be inferior to that of the middle-class families in the Han land.

What are you fighting for, despite the dead and wounded? Isn't it a promotion to make a fortune?

Promotions require heads, and fortune depends on plunder. Therefore, the places where the Han army raided were often covered with corpses and ruins. This kind of organized killing and plundering is not a little more efficient than that of amateur barbarian riders.

Why has it been more than 100 years that the Han Dynasty has relied on a small number of troops to be able to shock the Quartet, and even known as "those who commit strong men will be punished even if they are far away"?

In addition to the strong combat effectiveness of the Han army's "one Han and five Hu", the deterrence brought by the Han army's captivity is also an important reason. In some barbarian tribes, there is even a rumor that "the Han army passes everywhere and does not grow an inch of grass".

So, the next half month was the most difficult day for all the remnants of the Southern Xiongnu nobles.

On the grounds of "fornicating with Xianbei and brutalizing the Han people", Zhang Qiang carried out a lot of "punishment" on the Southern Xiongnu tribe near Meiji City, within a radius of 120 miles, according to the list listed by Bo Guoyi, the former "general of the Huns Protector".

All the Xiongnu nobles who participated in the activities against the predecessor "Qiangqu Danyu", and the Hu people who offended Guo Yi, if they did not escape fast enough and not far enough, there was only one fate:

——Become a part of a large-scale "Beijing View" in the west of Meiji City!

Naturally, some people hate the various actions of the Taixing army after occupying the court of the Meiji king, but there are also many people who fully support it. Among them, the Han people near Meiji Castle are, of course, in favor of raising their hands. These Han people, who were oppressed and brutalized by the Southern Xiongnu for more than half a year, didn't care about the Han army that occupied Meiji, whether the predecessor was an official or a thief!

To describe it in the original words of the village elders elected by the Han people, that is:

"See the Han official majesty again today!"

Moreover, due to the slaughter and plundering of the Taixing army, it was mainly aimed at those Xiongnu nobles who possessed wealth. For the ordinary Xiongnu herdsmen who were close to extreme poverty, the Taixing army did not look down on them at all, but from time to time gave them some rags that could not be taken away. This kind of behavior actually made ordinary Xiongnu herdsmen maintain a good sense of the Taixing army.

Seeing the strength shown by the Han army, some of the tribes were wiped out, and even took the initiative to join the Taixing army, wanting to rely on the strength of the Taixing army to become a new nobleman on the grassland.

Of course, when the rabbit is in a hurry, it will also kick people. What's more, those Hun nobles are by no means a group of good people!

As a result, thousands of private soldiers of the Xiongnu nobles, forgetting all kinds of filthy and personal enmity on weekdays, gathered unprecedentedly, and with full of grief and indignation, launched a desperate blow to the Taixing army entrenched in Meiji County.
