Chapter 398: Surrendered City
At the same time that Tuoba Li retreated, Zhang Liao and Gao Shun also retreated to the Xianbei people to the north.
Tuoba Lixiong, who was outside the Yanmen Pass, also led his troops back to the north.
As soon as they retreat, they will retreat on all fronts, after all, they can't fight, let alone win, and if they continue to stalemate, they may freeze to death.
Zhang Liaohe led them, and when they saw the retreating enemy, they couldn't help but go out and chase and kill for a distance, harvested a lot of heads, and snatched some, and the enemy fled in embarrassment, and left behind the grain and grass.
Gao Shun and them also sent troops to chase for a while, and they also returned with a complete victory.
"Finally retreated."
Gao Ran looked at the harvested grain and said with a smile: "Next, we should be able to survive the winter well." ”
Zhang He asked: "After the winter, do we still want to fight again?" ”
"It depends on the meaning of the Xianbei people."
Gao Shun said: "If the Xianbei people continue to go south, they will definitely fight again, take advantage of the winter when it snows, we will recuperate, and fight again next year. ”
"It's the same as Huo Qu's disease."
Zhang He said again: "Our lord can seal the wolf." ”
Gao Shun listened to this, and was very yearning for these, of course, he also wanted this kind of historical achievement, and said: "Go back, I still have to write a letter, send it to the lord, report the situation here, and wait for the lord's next arrangement." ”
When they got back to the city, they set about arranging for this.
Not only Gao Shun will report the situation, but also others.
——
Their letters were soon sent to Gohara.
After Yang Zhao read it, he made sure that the Xianbei people in the north of the other defense lines had retreated, and he replied separately, asking them to pay attention to their precautions and spend the winter in the north.
During the war, Yang Zhao was not unexperienced when he was away for the New Year.
But it's the first time he's homesick like this year, probably because there is an extra stinky boy in the family, and he can't accompany Jiang Er, so he wants to go back, if it weren't for those Xianbei people who came in, he would have gone back a long time ago.
"Xianbei people, it is indeed hateful!"
Yang Zhao complained in his heart.
Thinking of this, he wrote another letter and asked him to send it back to Linzi to his wives.
The next morning.
Yang Zhao appeared on the city tower again, looked to the north, and the shadow sent out also went deep into the north, and did not find any problems, the enemy really retreated completely, and was completely relieved.
Time passed quickly, and it was New Year's Eve.
"The Hetao area is still very empty!"
"The five plains where we are located, there is nothing but the garrison, and it is very empty."
"It's about to be the New Year, and I don't feel like it at all."
Yang Zhao brought them all in, and randomly found a big mansion in the city to enter, which was regarded as a New Year's dinner, and at the same time, he also added vegetables to the soldiers in the army and ate meat.
"The lord drove all the Huns away, of course it will be empty."
Dian Wei first said: "We are the only ones in the city. ”
Feng Ming sighed: "It is not easy to restore the grand situation of the Hetao area in the future. ”
Jia Xu said: "It's been more than ten years, but it's much better to control the land in our hands than to fall into those foreign tribes." ”
"This is also a great achievement."
Ju Yi admired: "Only our lord can do this, and no one else can." ”
"That's right!"
They agree with this sentence.
Zhao Yun echoed: "I think the lord still has the ability to destroy Xianbei and break through Danhan Mountain." ”
"It's a bit of a long-term stretch."
Yang Zhao drank a glass of wine and said slowly: "What I want to do most now is to calm the world, if it weren't for the Xiongnu and Xianbei taking the initiative to provoke a war, I don't want to fight for the time being, I think about the world first." ”
"I can only say that those outsiders don't know what to do!"
Tian Yu said.
Those foreigners are still ambitious, and the chaos within the Han has nothing to do with their foreigners, so they have to step in sideways, for the sake of interests and ambitions.
They continued to eat and drink, and continued to talk.
Now it was freezing cold, and the ice outside was several feet thick, and the enemy would not sneak attack at this time, so they could relax for a while, and after chatting for almost a night, they went back to rest separately.
Early the next morning.
After Yang Zhao got up, he first went to the city tower to inspect it, and then ordered that even if it was cold, he had to train his troops, this should not be wasted, and it could also warm his body, even if it was the New Year, he had to practice.
While training, wait for the time to pass.
This kind of time has passed for a long time, and they have waited for a long time before everything recovers, and it is not clear whether the next Xianbei people will come again.
"We will send troops, occupy the Great Wall, and go to the surrendered city on the north side of Yinshan."
Yang Zhao ordered.
In the future, they will also arrange garrisons on the Great Wall, and the surrendered city will be used by him as an outpost, and more than ten beacon towers will be built on the north side of the surrendered city, and once there is any movement, the news can be transmitted back to the Great Wall in the shortest possible time, so that the garrison can do a good job of defense.
These are the conclusions reached by Yang Zhao and Jia Xu after discussion.
The current surrendered city has long been empty.
Yang Zhao led his troops into the city, looked up and said: "The surrendered city was built to accept the surrender of the Xiongnu nobles, if the Xianbei people want to surrender, then the place of surrender is in this city." ”
"The surrender of the city can reflect the strength of the Han Dynasty back then."
Zhuge Liang sighed: "It's a pity that the current big man has been defeated to this extent, and I don't know if there will be a big man in the future." ”
Yang Zhao said: "In the future, it doesn't matter whether the big man is called the big man or not, the important thing is that the world can be stable." ”
"My lord is right!"
Zhuge Liang said.
After they occupied the city, the Great Wall began to prepare for defense.
At the same time, he also sent a message to Zhang Liao and them, and they must also make arrangements to climb the Great Wall, this great project to defend the Hu people in the north must be used to have the value of its continued existence.
After the beginning of spring, the snow and ice melt.
The grasslands in the north finally showed a little green.
Yang Zhao was thinking about when the Xianbei people would go south again, and suddenly got the news that the shadow came from the north.
"Tuoba Liwei, here we go again!"
When the news came back, the whole army was on alert instantly, and all the soldiers who were still building beacons retreated to the surrendered city, preparing to fight the Xianbei people again.
However, this time, Tuoba was weak, and did not lead the army south, only brought hundreds of cavalry, and hurried from the northern steppe, not like he wanted to provoke a war again.
Tuoba was weak, came to the vicinity of the surrendered city, pulled the reins and stopped.
"I've seen the Great Han General!"
Tuoba Li dismounted slightly, faced the direction of Yang Zhao, and bowed deeply with the etiquette of the Han Dynasty.
Jia Xu said: "Tuoba Liwei should have surrendered to us this time, it seems that Budugen has been scared by us." ”
Although the two sides only fought one battle, the strength of Yang Zhao's subordinates, as well as the power of that special weapon, really made them a little scared.
Bu Dugen was worried that Yang Zhao would take advantage of his morale to enter Xianbei, and he would not be able to resist that kind of weapon, and the two sides had no grudges before this, so it was better to surrender.
