Longxian, Ma Teng's official residence.

"Good news, father!"

Ma Chao rushed into the inner hall and said excitedly to Ma Teng: "Our scouts have just found out a piece of news. ”

"Oh?"

Ma Teng was surprised: "What good news? ”

Ma Chao said excitedly: "Half a month ago, the king of Tu, Hong Tu, raised 20,000 troops into Kou Wuwei, Luo Zheng's general carelessly underestimated the enemy, led the army to attack and was broken by Hong Tu, and took advantage of the situation to seize Guzang, Luo Zheng has already led the army back to Wuwei. ”

"Oh, that's it?"

Ma Teng was in good spirits, and his face also showed joy.

Ma Chao nodded again and again: "Originally, the child wondered why Luo Zhengpifu came back from Guanzhong so quickly, it turned out that Wu Wei was copied by Tu Gehu. In this way, Duan Xuan's army may not have been defeated by Luo Zheng. ”

Ma Teng's face moved, and he asked, "Has Gao Shun's 8,000 army ever withdrawn?" ”

Ma Chao calmed down and replied: "Gao Shun's 8,000 army did not withdraw, and Luo Zheng also left 3,000 cavalry for Gao Shun, it seems that even if Wu Wei is lost, Luo Zheng does not plan to give up attacking Longxian." ”

The smile on Ma Teng's face disappeared, and he said solemnly: "Yes, Luo Zheng has spent so much effort, how can he give up the plan to attack Longxian County." In this way, even if Duan Xuan was not defeated by Luo Zheng, he would not be able to enter Liangzhou? ”

"Ugh!"

Ma Chao was stunned and said, "How can you see it? ”

Ma Teng was patient and took the trouble to teach the eldest son, and said in a deep voice: "If Duan Xuan's army hadn't been disabled. then troops can be sent to Liangzhou at any time. Since Luo Zheng dared to leave Gao Shun's 8,000 army to continue to attack Longxian, he personally led the army north to Wuwei. It shows that Duan Xuan is no longer able to send troops to Liangzhou, and he is not disabled. It's the heavy casualties. ”

Ma Chao said suddenly: "I see, the child understands." ”

Ma Teng nodded and said, "If Wu'er encounters something in the future, you have to use your brains more, let's go!" ”

"Leave the child!"

Ma Chao bowed and retreated.

Linjing, Lu Bu's official residence.

"Oh, Tu Ge Wang Hong slaughtered Gu Zang?"

When Lu Bu received the news, he was also surprised.

Wei Xu replied: "Exactly. A month ago, the king of Tu Hongtu sent 20,000 troops to plunder the counties of Wuwei, Wu Xi was careless and underestimated the enemy, led the army to attack, but was broken by Hong Tu in a battle, not only the 3,000 army was annihilated, but Wu Xi was also killed. Today, Hongtu is plundering the counties of Wuwei, Luo Zheng has returned from Guanzhong, and personally led 9,000 cavalry out of Longxian County to Wuwei in the north. ”

"Good. That's great! ”

Lu Bu gritted his teeth and said: "General Ben and Ma Teng, whom Luo Zheng forced with despicable means, slaughtered 20,000 cavalry of Gehu and went south to enter the Kou and attacked Guzang, which can be regarded as a bad breath for this general." ”

Zhang Liao said in a condensed voice: "Lord." At present, there are only ten days' grain left in the city, and the counties have no more grain and grass, and the people everywhere have already eaten the grass. If you don't find a way to get food and grass, the soldiers will go hungry! ”

"This ......"

Lu Bu's brows immediately frowned. Let him be brave and brave, comparable to the overlord. At this time, I couldn't help but feel a deep powerlessness, it was impossible to conjure up food out of thin air, and I rubbed my eyebrows and asked, "Can I borrow some more from those rich people?" ”

Zhang Liao smiled bitterly: "It is estimated that it is enough, since the Qiang rebellion in the north of the Central Plains, after years of war, the gentry and rich households in the two counties have already fled, even if there are still people who have not moved out, there is not much food in stock!" ”

Lu Bu said helplessly: "What can you do?" ”

Wei Xu, Hou Cheng, Hao Meng and others lowered their heads when they heard the words, thinking about it.

Zhang Liao and Zang Ba also frowned, this grain is not wood on the mountain, and it can be harvested back if it is gone.

The population of the two counties in the north was already small, and in addition to the constant wars, a large number of people either fled or died of military disasters and famines, and the two counties together were less than 80,000 people, and they really could not collect much military rations.

There are still nearly three months before the grain is harvested and sent to the ground, and the people have eaten grass roots, so how can they still collect grain and grass.

Hou Cheng said cautiously: "I heard that Luo Zheng got a large amount of military food from somewhere last year, and he didn't have to worry about the grain and grass under his rule, didn't he give our army 2,000 stones of grain and grass in the spring?" The lord sent someone to try it, or he could borrow food and grass for emergencies. ”

Lu Bu was furious and said, "You asked General Ben to borrow grain from Luo Zheng's husband?" ”

Hou hurriedly said: "Lord, there is really no way, now except for Luo Zheng, who has grain and grass, it is better to borrow grain from Luo Zheng than to let the soldiers go hungry and mutiny, right?" If you really can't do it, you can only send troops to plunder the Huns. ”

"Huh?"

Lu Bu's heart moved, and then he denied this mention.

Zhang Liao also said: "At present, bandits are rising in the two counties of Beidi and Anding, and our army has to divide troops to garrison various places, and even the three thousand cavalry of the lord cannot be mobilized lightly, and I am afraid that it will not work to send troops to plunder the Huns!" ”

Zang Ba also nodded in agreement, which is a fact.

Lu Bu struggled for a long time before he sighed: "Okay, then send someone to try it and see if you can borrow some more emergency military rations from Luo Zheng." If you really can't do it, you can only send troops to plunder the Huns. ”

All the generals sighed, and your heart was a little heavy when you looked at me.

North of Wuling, Zhao Yun Daying.

"Good news, General!"

A junior colonel rushed into Zhao Yun's big tent and said with a fierce hand: "The lord and father-in-law led the army, and it has reached twenty miles away. ”

"Oh, the lord's army has arrived?"

Zhao Yun suddenly refreshed himself and turned his head to look over.

The Colonel replied, "Exactly! ”

Zhao Yun immediately stood up and said quickly: "Quickly go and gather all the generals and colonies, and go with a certain to meet the army of the lord." ”

"Yes."

The little colonel obeyed the order and walked out of the tent.

About half an hour later, Luo Zheng personally led 9,000 cavalry to arrive, Zhao Yun led the generals out of the camp, and before he could talk about the old days, he went straight to the big tent of the Chinese army and convened the commanders and generals above the army Sima to discuss the matter.

The Great Tent of the Chinese Army.

Luo Zhengzheng's clothes were unsolved, and the big sword and golden knife sat on the top.

Jia Xu, Cheng Ying, Zhao Yun, Yan Xing, Wang Fang and other civil and military generals were lined up on both sides, all with solemn faces.

Luo Zheng's gaze fell on Zhao Yun. He asked in a deep voice, "Zilong, what has happened to the Tu Gehu army recently?" ”

Zhao Yun replied: "Hong Tu doesn't seem to have taken advantage of the situation to go south under Jincheng. Only the troops plundered the counties of Wuwei, and the last general was afraid of leading Hong Tu to raise troops south. Whether they did not dare to act rashly, and did not send troops to break the Hu soldiers who plundered the counties. ”

Luo Zheng said 'um' and said: "Zilong is right to stay still, since Wuwei has been lost, it is useless to attack in a hurry, and you can't provoke these Huns who drink blood to Jincheng." Where is the main army of Hongtu? ”

Zhao Yundao: "According to the report of the scouts, Hong Tu has 3,000 cavalry stationed in Guzang, in addition to the cavalry sent out to plunder the counties of Wuwei. There are still 8,000 cavalry forcibly conscripted tens of thousands of people, and the city is being repaired and slaughtered. ”

Luo Zheng smiled and said: "It seems that Hong Tu is really planning to rebuild the Xiu Tu royal court, it's really a big dog's guts, although the Han court is dead, but my Han people are not so weak that even a small Tu Gehu department can't clean it up." General Ben came to see who borrowed a gall from Hong Tu's horseman and dared to argue with General Ben. ”

The generals were also excited, and they rubbed their hands and said: "Please send troops quickly to defeat these damned Huns." ”

Luo Zheng got up and paced back and forth in the tent. Silent and silent.

Jia Xu looked at the generals, then at Luo Zheng, and suddenly said: "Our army only has 12,000 cavalry, and Hongtu has no less than 20,000 cavalry. Nearly twice as many as our army. If it is a hard fight, even if it can defeat Tu Gehu, our army is bound to suffer heavy casualties. I thought the general should avoid the front. Directly lead the army to kill Benxiu Tuze in order to mobilize the Hongtu army. Look for another opportunity to destroy the enemy. ”

Luo Zhengjie said: "This general also has this intention, Wen He is really my son!" ”

Jia Xu said in a gloomy voice: "Slaughter the major armies. If there is a chance, the general simply copied Hong Tuze's lair, and then burned Xiu Tuze, only in this way can the border trouble be completely eliminated. ”

Everyone listened to it with a dark heart, and they all looked sideways.

Jia Xu's guy is too ruthless, and he wants to completely wipe out a tribe of nearly 200,000 people when he opens his mouth.

Although the generals have no opinion on killing people and exterminating the clan, anyway, these Huns should have died, but they were still shocked by Jia Xu's ruthlessness, and they all had a cold feeling in their hearts.

Luo Zheng said categorically: "Good, according to Wenhe's plan, the generals will quickly prepare, order the army to rest for the night, and tomorrow morning the troops will rest Tu Ze, first set foot on the old nest of Hongtu, slaughter his clan, and then find an opportunity to break the enemy." ”

"Yes!"

The generals responded with a bang, got up and strode out of the tent.

Jia Xu and Cheng Ying did not leave, and still sat down.

Luo Zheng was silent for a moment before he muttered: "Liangzhou is bordered by Qianghu in the west, Xiongnu and Xianbei in the north, and the border problem has not been thoroughly explained since before the former Han Dynasty. Even though there is Huo Bi riding the west corridor of the river, Zhangye, Jiuquan, Dunhuang three counties, Ma ambush soldiers to conquer the eight hundred miles of Qiang Yuan, but the Liangzhou border troubles are still continuous, the Qiang Hu and the Huns surrendered and rebelled, rebelled and surrendered, after the unification of the desert by Tanshi Kui, the Xianbei people took advantage of the situation, hidden in the past Xiongnu prosperity, although now divided, but also far stronger than the Qianghu and the Huns. The nomads on the grassland are like weeds on the prairie, burned to ashes today, and will continue to grow next year, living and resting, changing again and again, the Huns are gone, and there are Xianbei people, and when the Bei people are gone, there will be other nomads who continue to rise and grow, enter the border pass every year, raise troops to loot, and in the end, in the end, it is my Han people who suffer. Wen He and Gongying are going to talk about it, what is the fault of this general in slaughtering the Qianghu people? ”

Jia Xu solemnly arched his hand and said: "General Gaoyi, for the sake of my Han people, how can I make a mistake, even if the history is like a knife, a hundred years later, my Han people will not forget what General Jì did." For these capricious alien races, I thought that there was really no need to let them multiply and survive, such as the Qianghu people, the Huns, and the Xianbei people of the desert. Even if the general wants to use the Qianghu people to pacify Liangzhou and unify the world in the future, he must completely put an end to its troubles. ”

Cheng Ying nodded again and again, and said, "I also very much agree with the lord's opinion. ”

Luo Zheng groaned: "The Qianghu people still need to be appeased for the time being, and the Han people under the rule of this general are too few, and they still have to rely on the Qianghu army to fight in all directions." However, the Qianghu people can be used to deal with the Huns, and even the Xianbei people, so that in the process of solving the Huns and Xianbei people, the vitality of the Qianghu people can also be consumed. As for how to deal with these Qianghu people in this way, and even the Xianbei people who defeated the Xiongnu and even Mobei in the future, how to completely put an end to the border troubles of our Han Dynasty, and Wenhe, Wenruo, and Gongying should also come up with a long-term strategy for the general, so as to follow the implementation and avoid blindness. ”

Jia Wen and Cheng Ying hurriedly arched their hands and said, "Obey the order." ”

Luo Zheng discussed with Jia Xu and Cheng Ying some details of the dispatch of troops to rest Tu Ze, and then went to rest.

Early the next morning, before dawn, the army rose from camp, rolled eastward, crossed the Great Wall from the tiger's mouth, and then turned north from the mud mountain, crossed the Baili sand sea in the south of Hutuze, and directly slaughtered the old nest of Hutuze.

Twelve thousand cavalry marched lightly, carrying no baggage with them, and only ten days' dry rations.

Crossing the desert is tantamount to self-defeating for the army.

However, Luo Zheng has his own way, although the vegetable garden cannot be used, the one-acre lake is inexhaustible. The biggest problem with crossing the desert is that there is no water source, and once the water source is solved, it is no longer a problem.

As for the ease of getting lost in the desert, this is even less of a problem.

Most of the 12,000 cavalry are men from the northwest, born in the northwest and grew up in the northwest, and they have long been accustomed to the environment of the great northwest.

Even if there is a slight deviation, it will not be too much of a problem.

As for not bringing the army's rations and baggage, it is even simpler.

Luo Zheng will never be polite to these Huns, as long as they kill Hugh Tuze, Tu Gehu people have cattle and sheep livestock, these cattle and sheep livestock are the food of more than 10,000 troops, these Huns are not Han people, even if they rob and kill them all, there will be no psychological burden, and for the Han people who have suffered from their looting, it is a thousand years of merit.

Five days later, the army crossed the sea of sand and captured Wuwei County, which is located in the north of Wuwei County and is the closest to Hutu Ze, with lightning speed.

Naturally, the eight hundred Hun cavalry would not all be killed, only more than a hundred people were really killed, and the rest did not run away, all of them laid down their arms and surrendered, but in the end they were ordered by Luo Zheng to be buried alive, leaving not a single prisoner.

The sun sets in the west mountains, and the sky is full of golden glow.

The shouts of killing in the city had long since subsided, and the Huns were all slaughtered.

Cheng Ying was trying to pacify the devastated Han people in the city, and distributed the captured cattle, sheep, livestock and grain to the people who had been captured by the Huns, which finally made the people fear a little away, and there was a smile on their faces.

did not stop in Wuwei for more, only let the army rest for one night, Luo Zheng led the army out of Wuwei to the south, and rushed straight to Hutu Ze non-stop. At this time, Xiu Tuze had already boiled over the sky, because Wuwei County was on the edge of Xiu Tuze, Luo Zheng led the army across the sand sea, suddenly appeared under Wuwei City, and attacked Wuwei in one fell swoop, and the news had already spread to Xiu Tuze.
