So Tu Hun, who had a firm gaze, asked again: "If Kebi can go south in a big way, how can I resist, and how much can General Zhengxi send troops?" ”

"Why do you want to resist, the current territory is handed over to my father-in-law, and my father-in-law naturally has a way to defend it. If you don't send many troops, you can fight, just to show the strength of your Hun warriors. If you know that you can't beat it, just run west. If you dare to pursue, or occupy your territory, my lord will send troops to cut off your team! Let him not be able to take mushrooms from head to tail, and even fall apart internally. ”

Tuhun: "......"

Guo Jia frowned and smiled when he saw Tuhun frowning: "Wasn't it like this when the Southern Xiongnu were defeated by the Northern Xiongnu in the past? Moreover, once the commercial and trade cooperation began, Kebineng would be war-torn about the attitude of the Han court. If you can't stop the small-scale robbery, and you won't have a place to run sooner or later if you stay in Bingzhou, will you run across the Yellow River? If you don't cooperate with my lord, aren't you afraid of repeating the mistakes of Yu Furo when you flee south? ”

Tuhun smiled bitterly: "Mr. Guo is too alarmist, right?" ”

???????????????? Guo Jia shook his head: "My lord was able to defeat Dong Zhuo in a row, annihilate Yu Fuluo, and defeat Yuan Shao in Jizhou within half a year. Do you think that my lord will easily propose to recover the annexed state, don't forget that there are still more Han people living in the land of the annexed state than the Huns, and you Huns have no unified command.

And Kobineng is now using your tribe's road to trade with the south, do you think he will be satisfied, why don't you drive you away and trade directly with the south? Your war with the Xianbei people is inevitable, it is only a matter of time. ”

"This ......"

"Three or four years ago, my lord was able to break through the east of the river with 3,000 soldiers and broke the valley with my man, so that Yu Fuluo and Qubei did not have time to cooperate, and the Baibo army was wiped out. Don't think that only you Huns swim, Lu Bu, the fierce general under the former Wumeng Commander Ding Yuan, is known as the first person in the world, and he is helpless in front of the public. Which one of Yu Fuluo, Hu Chuquan, and Liu * Bao is not strong, and now he is here? Maybe you will say that all of you Huns can ride and fight, but don't forget that there are 100,000 elites in the hands of the Han court, half of which are Xiliang cavalry, and there are at least 20,000 or 30,000 Qiang people, and they were not defeated by my lord in a war? Do you think you can compare with Dong Zhuo's strength together? Can the entire Southern Xiongnu fight 20,000, 30,000 or 50,000? ”

Tuhun: "......"

"Jiayuan came from afar with sincerity, if you don't agree, you Huns don't agree, we can send people to Kebineng, maybe they are happy to share the grassland of the Southern Huns fairly with my master."

Tuhun: "...... Sir, give me a little time, and I will convince my father first. ”

Guo Jia shook his head again and again: "The grassland people are not my Han Dynasty, the state of etiquette, if you go directly to King Hutu, Jia estimates that your death is not far away." If I could let you know why King Hutu wanted to hide such a big thing? Because he was worried that the spread of the matter would affect his prestige in the tribe. You are also known as the first warrior of the Huns, so the day the matter is revealed is when he cedes the tribal leader. This kind of internal struggle is staged every day between many families! ”

"Please teach me, sir!" "Whether you want to work with us or not, Jia has a word, and remember. Either pretend not to know, if you want to have a showdown with King Hutu, you have to grasp the situation first. One hit kills! ”

Guo Jia's expression was serious, and he was sweating all over! He now seriously suspects that Guo Jia is specifically here to sow discord between their father and son. However, the fact that King Hutu took refuge in Kebineng can't be hidden, he really has to make a choice, and he doesn't want to be Kebineng's lackey.

Seeing Tu Hun in distress, Guo Jia reminded again: "Qiangqu is consistent with your attitude towards Kebineng, if my lord's army comes to remedy it, you can ask him for help in the name of my lord!" As long as we can stalemate, my lord will definitely send troops to reinforce as soon as possible. ”

"What about the south?"

"Then you can choose not to disclose your attitude first, and pay attention to wooing the tribesmen during this time. When the Southern Xiongnu tribes are called up, our army has almost arrived, and then you can do it again, as long as you don't die on the spot, even if you are defeated, our army can also take you back from the hands of King Hutu or Qubei. Of course, if you are able to escape to our camp in the case of Jhambard,???????????????? That's foolproof. ”

Tu Hun was not angry and said: "Sir, you can't hope that I am a little better, can't it be that I successfully obtained the command of the tribe, and then united with Qiangqu to fight against Qubei and Kebineng?" ”

】

Guo Jia shook his head: "If that's the case, what else do you have to worry about?" ”

The earth is dumb.

After thinking for a while, Tuhun said: "If there is a war, after the war, I want all the Huns in Yunzhong, Xihe and Yanmen!" ”

"Deal! The Huns will not farm, and our army will not feed them in vain. However, if the cattle and horses are to stay, we need war horses to equip the army, and we need cattle to be lower, and the sheep can be sold to you a part. ”

Tuhun: "......"

"What you have given up is only the scattered pastures of the two counties, and what you have obtained is the lack of several small Xiongnu tribes. In particular, the Qubei tribe is close to 10,000 tents. ”

Tuhun seemed to remember something again and said: "If I unite with Qiangqu to fight with my father and the Beibei coalition army, I hope that your army will send troops quickly and try not to kill too many Xiongnu warriors." ”

"We do our best, as long as we don't hide in the middle of his army, most of them will be beheaded. As long as he kills the humiliation, how many of his tribal soldiers can stay depends on the appeal of you, the first warrior of the Huns. ”

Tuhun originally wanted to mention whether he could let the Wei family give him the previous daughter of Yu Fuluo, but when he saw Guo Jia's shrewd appearance, he finally gave up. Shan Yu, who is collectively known as the tribal leader and even the Southern Xiongnu, led everyone to fight against the Xianbei people and the Northern Xiongnu, a woman is not worth mentioning at all.

After Guo Tu left the Xiutu Department, he did not try to visit King Xiutu, nor did he go south to find Zhibei, because the information of the scout and Jinyi Wei was enough, although the King of Xiutu was not so hostile to the Han and Wei Xuan, he did not intend to be an enemy of the Xianbei people, and it was not worth Wei Xuan to support him, and Qubei had already been injured by Wei Xuan and had to be eliminated. Because purely in terms of population, the Huns who had surpassed the Han people in Xihe and Shangjun had already surpassed them, and blocked Wei Xuan's northward and westward advances and the way to contact Qiangqu. If the war doesn't go well, Wei Xuan can temporarily give up Wuyuan, Yunzhong and Dingxiang, but he must take back Xihe! Sometimes Wei Xuan even suspected that Qubei was also a Han crosser, otherwise how could he be stuck in such a key position, guarding the south of Bingzhou, guarding both sides of the Yellow River, and persuading the people in the tribe to learn farming.

Guo Jia then marched slowly along the line of Dingxiang and Yanmen Taiyuan, inspecting the route of the march and trying to persuade the small tribes entrenched in these places.

It's just that Guo Jia is disappointed that the smaller the tribe, the more visionary the leader is. They even robbed Guo Jia's second squad, although Guo Jia and the others didn't bring anything but horses. Guo Tu even met the envoys sent to these tribes by Qubei several times on the way. Obviously, to be humble is not only ambitious, but also a person with means.

With the return of Guo Jia, the scouts and brocade guards sent out in the previous months have also returned to Taiyuan one after another, and careful people will definitely find that the current state is cloudy.

In Taiyuan County, Wei Xuan's Northern Expeditionary Army is constantly assembling here after half a year of preparation. Two months ago, with the support of the Wang family and other local wealthy families, Wei Xuan took Zhang Zhao as the Taiyuan Taishou, and at the same time was responsible for the logistics and dispatch of the Northern Expeditionary Army, and then ???????????????? Talented young people from all over the country were recruited to participate in the preparation for this war. Among them, the most outstanding is naturally Hao Zhao from Taiyuan!

At the same time as Wei Xuan left Henan, Xun Yu was the Yin of Henan and dispatched in the rear. With the full favor as the Luoyang order, the reconstruction of the immigrants to Luoyang and the settlement of immigrants are strictly supervised. The Xinbi brothers, Cui Yan, Gu Yong, Xun You and others went north with the army.

After more than half a year of frantic explosions, the entire Northern Expeditionary Army also drew elites from the existing armies stationed in the four counties. Among them, all the cavalry participated in the battle, and now there are four cavalry divisions, Zhang Liao's tiger and leopard cavalry 5,000 heavy cavalry, Du Peng's Flying Tiger Army light cavalry 5,000, Zhao Yun's guard battalion light cavalry 4,000 heavy cavalry, Weitong's Xiao cavalry battalion light cavalry 3,000, heavy cavalry 2,000.

The infantry participating in the battle included 24,000 people from Wei Zheng, Zhang Yang, Tai Shici, and Xu Huang, plus 2,000 heavy infantry led by Dian Wei and Xu Chu, and 1,000 scouts dispatched by Wang Qiang long ago. The scale of the entire Northern Expedition is nearly 50,000 people, and I believe that the princes of the whole world and all the Huns will never think of it!

The reason why Wei Xuan dispatched so many soldiers and horses was also to pursue a quick war, no matter how well the various departments of the Southern Xiongnu were united, he must at least take Xihe and Yamen into his own hands before spring ploughing and start tuntian, otherwise he would not be able to raise so many soldiers and horses if no one continued to send him free grain and grass next autumn. Especially for war horses, there are no barren grasslands in Henan, Yingchuan and other places. But there are no states!

Of course, Wei Xuan's pursuit of a quick battle also has a purpose, which is to try to avoid direct conflict with the Xianbei people, and not to leave too much time for Yuan Shao for a few weeks. And Dong Zhuo estimates that it won't be a few days, and he must solve it as soon as possible so that he can have the strength to participate in the battle for the Son of Heaven as soon as possible.

The inertia of history is too strong, although much has changed for the birth of the elect. But Dong Zhuo doesn't seem to be able to hide, so Li Dao, Guo Yan, Duan Xuan, Zhang Ji, Fan Chou and others will win without Jia Xu's provocation and attachment, which makes Wei Xuan very looking forward to and worried.

If these Xiliang generals who originally belonged to Dong Zhuo noisily divided the winners and losers, he could only collect his troops and go south after occupying Yanmen and Xihe.
