Chapter 364: Southern Xiongnu
"No, I'm going to see my father."
Cao Qing said that he handed Yang Yuan to the maid on the side, and planned to go out.
"Madame, don't be excited, father-in-law is also helpless."
Yang Ling hurriedly stopped her and said with a smile,
"Besides, how can a husband refuse to eat the king's fortune and be loyal to the king?"
Under his kind words to appease, Cao Qing dispelled the idea of going to Cao Cao.
Yang Ling stayed with the girls for a while, then took Zhou Cang and the others and left the mansion.
But when he went out this time, Yang Ling took Guo Zhao and Ma Yunlu with him.
First, it is a long journey, and he needs a woman to take care of him.
The second is that Ma Yunlu has not met Ma Teng for a long time, and he just took this opportunity to reunite their father and daughter.
When he went to Liangzhou, although Yang Ling only brought 20,000 soldiers and horses, he brought a lot of generals, such as Zhao Yun, Gan Ning, Ma Chao, Ma Xiu, Ma Tie, and Ma Dai...... Even Zhang Xiu and Hu Che'er traveled with the army.
In order to rush to Liangzhou as soon as possible and find out the situation.
Yang Ling left the large army to Zhang Xiu to lead, and he led the elite soldiers and good generals, and rushed to Liangzhou first.
……
After a long journey of nearly half a month, Yang Ling and his party finally arrived in Chang'an City.
Zhong Xuan, who served as the lieutenant of Si Li, knew that Yang Ling was coming, and even led a group of officials to go out of the city to greet him in person.
Zhong Xuan is about 50 years old, with a thin appearance and a literati temperament.
Don't look at his courteous literary quality, he has high attainments in calligraphy and literature.
But he is also a good hand in governing political affairs and marching and fighting.
Due to Dong Zhuo's destruction, the people in Guanzhong were not able to make a living, and Cao Cao ordered Zhong Xuan to lead the commander of the school as a servant and supervise the troops in Guanzhong.
After his care, Si Lizhou recuperated and gradually developed.
When the Southern Xiongnu rebelled in Pingyang, he also led the armies from all walks of life to repel them.
"The arrival of the general of Zhengxi this time can be said to make Chang'an City shine!"
Zhong Xuan's old-fashioned face showed a rare smile.
He was proud, but it was for others.
Who is Yang Ling?
The literary attainments are extremely high, and he can be called the first in the world.
This is not true, the battlefield battle is even more impressive!
"Captain Si Li, I'm polite, I still need to learn from you."
Yang Ling said with a smile.
"Alright, let's stop standing and go into the city."
Zhong Miao welcomed Yang Ling into Chang'an.
A banquet has already been set up in the city, and when everyone is seated, the banquet will officially begin.
After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, the two also chatted about business.
"The purpose of the general Zhengxi's coming, Duke Wei has already written to tell me, but if the general has orders, he will never refuse!"
Zhong Xuan said solemnly.
"Then thank you Captain Sili!"
Yang Ling bowed his hand and expressed his gratitude.
After the two talked about it, Zhong Xuan seemed to think of something, and said cautiously,
"There's something I feel compelled to tell the general!"
"Sir, please speak."
"A few days ago, I received news that Han Sui sent an envoy to Bingzhou to meet the Southern Xiongnu."
Zhong Xuan said in a deep voice,
"Since the general is going to Liangzhou to deal with this matter this time, he must not be careless."
Han Sui went to contact the Southern Xiongnu?
Yang Ling was stunned for a moment, and then relieved.
The Xiongnu and Qiang were originally one family, and they often united to make trouble on the border of the Han Dynasty.
It was reasonable for Han Sui to contact them.
It's just that I don't know if Hu Chuquan has learned a lesson after the fiasco in Hanoi County.
If he didn't repent, there would be no need to keep him.
Thinking of this, a cold glint flashed in Yang Ling's eyes, but he chuckled and said,
"Thank you, sir, I know."
After the banquet, Yang Ling also took Guo Zhao and Ma Yunlu to live in the room arranged by Zhong Xuan.
This night is not humane.
Early the next morning, Yang Ling did not follow the predetermined plan and went straight to Liangzhou.
Instead, he left Chang'an City and headed north.
His purpose was simple, that is, to inspect the Southern Xiongnu Department.
In just a few days, Yang Ling and the others entered the boundary of the state.
Looking at the endless plain in front of her, Gao Rou on the side was a little worried,
"General, if the Huns really collude with Han Sui, wouldn't we be in the mouth of a tiger when we go?"
There were only three hundred people around Yang Ling, and the rest of the troops were handed over to Zhang Xiu.
With this manpower alone, how could it be an opponent of the murderous Huns?
"Wen Hui don't worry, the soldiers are not expensive, but this amount of manpower is enough to deal with the Huns."
Gan Ning said with a grin.
"Xingba is right, Wenhui doesn't have to be nervous."
Yang Ling also smiled faintly.
Gao Rou glanced at the three hundred centaurs behind her, and her face showed hesitation.
He had heard Yang Ling mention it before, saying that these three hundred centaurs seemed to have undergone some kind of special forces training, and they were extremely elite.
Even Gao Shun's trapping camp and Gan Ning's tyrant battalion are not their opponents.
However, seeing that Yang Ling and Gan Ning were so confident, Gao Rou couldn't say anything.
Before setting off from Chang'an, Yang Ling sent a messenger and asked him to inform Da Shan Yu Hu Chuquan.
Therefore, not long after entering the border of Bingzhou, he saw a dusty road ahead, and a Hun cavalry galloped towards him.
After arriving in front of Yang Ling, they immediately grabbed the reins and stopped abruptly.
A richly dressed Hun stepped forward on his horse and said respectfully,
"I've seen the general of Zhengxi!"
Yang Ling recognized that he was the right virtuous king of the Huns.
"Why don't you see the big order and the small order?"
"Returning to the Great General, Da Shan Yu is encamped not far ahead."
Go and replied.
When Yang Ling heard this, he secretly sneered in his heart.
This Hu Chuquan is really bold, he didn't come to see him, and let himself go to see him.
It's so lively!
Yang Ling nodded quietly,
"Please lead the way!"
"Yes!"
Go and pull the reins, turn the horse's head, and lead the way for Yang Ling in front.
It didn't take long for a large Hun camp to appear in front of Yang Ling.
Da Shan Yu Hu Chuquan took the nobles of the clan to greet him at the gate of the camp.
"The general of Zhengxi came from afar, it's really hard!"
Hu Chuquan stepped forward with a smile on his face, and his attitude was extremely enthusiastic.
Yang Ling ignored him, looked around, and didn't see Liu Bao's figure.
He frowned, and said lightly,
"Where is Xiaodan?"
"Returning to the general, Xiao Shan Yu is a little unwell and is recuperating. When he is well, let him come to see the general. ”
Although there was nothing wrong with Hu Chuquan's answer, Yang Ling saw a hint of dodging in his gaze.
There is a problem.
Definitely problematic.
"Okay!"
Yang Ling pretended to be casual and nodded, and followed Hu Chuquan into the camp.
After settling down, Hu Chuquan smiled,
"The general will rest here for the time being, and I will hold a banquet to greet the general in the evening."
"Well said."
Yang Ling nodded.
Hu Chuquan saluted, and as soon as he came out of the camp, the person behind him couldn't help but say,
"Lord Shan, why don't we just do it?"
