When Shao Xun arrived at the camp, he was just in time to kill pigs and sheep, so he mixed a meal of wine and meat with a smile, and even the sons and daughters with the teaching team were also stained, and they opened their bellies and ate to their heart's content.

After having eaten and drunk, the army marched westward.

Du Tan, Du Yin brothers and a group of Yiyangwu Fort commanders "reluctantly", sent several miles, and then went home briskly.

On the way west from Yiquanwu, Shao Xun also met the second group of displaced people from Bingzhou who went to Yunzhongwu, it seemed that there were about 300 households, helping the old and the young, staggering, and moving forward with difficulty.

They were accompanied by some ordnance, livestock, and farm tools purchased in Luoyang.

Shao Xun restrained the soldiers and strictly forbade harassment.

Just kidding, if you let the soldiers rob your own property, you can't cut them all?

At noon on the same day, the displaced people crossed the river in batches and went to the south bank of Luoshui, while the army marched all the way on the north bank and arrived at Sanxiangyi (now Sanxiang Town) that night.

From Sanxiang Station to the north, there is a narrow mountain valley road, one of which is opened up in the middle of the mountainside, one side of the road is a mountain, the other side is a deep stream, it is said to return to Xiban - Ban, the hill slope is also.

The name of Huixi is seen in history because of Feng Yi and Deng Yu.

The two led the army to fight in the west of Michi County and were defeated. Deng Yu ran to Yiyang, Feng Yi returned to Xiban, and only took a few people back to the camp.

After this more than 30 miles of mountain valley road, you can reach the west saka in the east and west two mountains of the mountain - the mountain is divided into the east and west two mountains, and the west mountain is the mountain road of the west mountain.

From here to the east, through the Dongkun Mountain, through Xin'an and other places can also go to Luoyang, that is, the north road opened up by Cao Cao.

The northern road is more difficult and dangerous, and it is not as easy to walk as the southern road.

Even the emperor of the Tang Dynasty ate Luoyang, and he also liked to take the Yiyang Road on the southern route around the long road, so he also built a series of palaces in the Luoshui River Valley to rest on the way.

The army stayed here for three days.

During this period, Shao Xun transferred more than 2,000 people from the upper, middle and lower armies to Danshan, broke through the thief village, and captured more than 300 households.

He also sent people to Yunzhongwu, found Mao Er, who sent the oxen to him, and ordered him to lead the seven to ten teams of the first building of the Silver Spear Army to Tanshan Village to clean up the mess.

Mi Huang let this go unnoticed and basically didn't care.

Mi Zhi personally accompanied the army and observed. When I saw more than 2,000 people crossing the river again, trekking along the difficult mountain road, and then going forward to attack the thief village, I was slightly discolored.

This intensity of war is indeed not comparable to the fire of the country dock fort.

Where the flesh and blood fly, it is particularly moving.

At this point, he understood that Shao Xun controlled the three villages of Yunzhong, Jinmen, and Danshan, and made great efforts to operate, and after the climate became successful, his influence in the Luoshui River Valley would be greatly increased.

Sooner or later, this natural river valley surrounded by mountains will be completely controlled by him, right?

The vision is quite vicious, there are east and west Erkun Mountains in the north, and there are Bear's Ears Mountain in the south, and only the opening to Luoyang on the east side, as long as you build a city in this open - or simply rebuild Yiyang County and use it as a screen - you can block the invading enemy army.

If the enemy does not pull out Yiyang, the back road will always be threatened, and the grain route may be cut off, so it will not be able to advance into the Luoshui River Valley with peace of mind.

Then, the big war will take place around this exposure.

This person has a strategy.

On the 15th, the army entered Huixiban in batches.

On the difficult mountain road, everyone is cautious. In particular, the auxiliary soldiers of the baggage troops, the vehicles, mules and horses with heavy loads must be carefully served, and do not fall into the ditch.

"This road was dug in the Qin period, and it is still in use today." Shao Xun dismounted and walked to Mi Zhi, who was following him, and said, "If an enemy army attacks from the north, it will take this way." ”

"Why can't you pick a mountain trail and march lightly?" Mi Zhi asked.

Knowing that the enemy would come from this road, I temporarily built a fence at a dangerous place to block it head-on, but I didn't know when I would fight, and the enemy might as well go around the mountain path.

"It is possible to take a detour, but the mountain trail has not been dug up, and it is difficult for people and horses to walk, and it is impossible for the baggage convoy to pass. This kind of light army can only be taken by surprise, and once it is discovered, it will die without a place to be buried. Shao Xun said.

The fact that you are marching with a light army and no baggage convoy to follow means that you are likely to be unarmoured, underarmed, and only have a few days of dry rations on you, and a serious shortage of consumables such as arrows. When crossing the mountain road, the physical exertion is also very high, and many people will even get injured.

In such a state, you can really only rely on surprise, and you have to count on the people on the other side to be demoralized and collapse at the first touch.

If the other party has high morale, well-armed, full of physical strength, and dares to fight, in a state like yours, it is purely a head-off.

"Like...... Yes. Mi Zhi nodded and said: "In the past, Cao Wei and Shu, Deng Shizai secretly attacked Yinping, all the way was difficult, seven hundred miles of mountains and valleys, when they arrived in Jiangyou, the soldiers lacked clothes and weapons, and they were unkempt. If the Shu army had well-trained elites waiting for them, Deng Shizai was afraid that the whole army would be annihilated. ”

"Haha." Shao Xun smiled and said, "That's how we can leave a name in history." In fact, it is a gamble, betting on the emptiness behind you, betting that you are not defensive. If you defend it, he will die, and there will be no way out. ”

Deng Ai's army, which passed through the 700-mile uninhabited area, dug roads all the way, and when they arrived at Jiangyou, they could imagine what the state was.

The armor and weapons are definitely incomplete, and most of them can't eat well along the way, and their physical strength and energy are consumed to the extreme.

When you enter the enemy's hinterland, you are also terrified in your heart, and your morale is not too high.

As a result, the Shu army surrendered directly, allowing them to obtain key supplies, so there is no way to say.

"Who is Lang Jun referring to when he says that the northern soldiers are attacking the south?" Mi Zhi asked.

"If I say it's the Huns, do you believe it?" Shao Xun asked rhetorically.

Mi Zhi was a little stunned.

He admitted that Liu Yuan's current momentum was very good, but to attack Hongnong in the south meant that they had already invaded the vicinity of Luoyang, how could it be?

"Don't believe me? If you don't believe it, wait slowly. Shao Xun smiled and said, "Don't worry, Hongnong County is divided by mountains and is roughly divided into two parts. Shanbei is located on the bank of the big river, facing the east of the river. If the Xiongnu crossed the river and went south, it would be difficult to hold on. The south of the mountain is sandwiched between the mountains, there are river valleys in it, the water and grass are abundant, and there are thousands of hectares of fertile land, which are suitable for grazing and farming. Can you stop the Huns? ”

He didn't believe it, from the Qin Dynasty to the Tang and Song dynasties, there have always been these two roads, can the Huns still come up with tricks?

One goes east from Kunshan, passes through Xin'an, tends to Luoyang, and the terrain is difficult and dangerous.

One goes south from Kunshan Mountain, and then turns northeast along the Luoshui River valley to Luoyang.

If the Xiongnu were coming, it was more likely to go west from Luoyang and attack Yiyang.

But it's not that it's impossible to defend.

Yiyang County needs to be overhauled, it is best to build a warehouse city, reserve a large number of materials, and station more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, and the Huns will not be able to get around.

Their cavalry needed to eat, and the horses were especially fed. In times of war, it is no longer possible to feed the horses with grass, so you don't have to do anything for the day, and you can go and herd the horses.

In war, what is fought is logistics, and what is fought is determination.

"What if the Xiongnu besiege for a long time and attack repeatedly?" Mi Zhi asked.

Shao Xun laughed and said, "Don't worry, they are poorer than anyone else." If there is no grain in Luoyang, long-distance transshipment, most of the grain will be consumed on the road, and the gains outweigh the losses. At that time, Liu Yuanhai may also recruit me and entrust me with an official position. If I don't surrender, he will have nothing to plunder, and he will have to retreat until he has the ability to occupy Luoyang. ”

"Lang Jun's plan is far-reaching, admire." Mi Zhi arched his hand and said sincerely.

He was a year older than Shao Xun, but he had never thought about such far-reaching strategic and tactical issues.

However, he still found it difficult to believe that the Xiongnu would go south to Luoyang.

They haven't even been able to take Taiyuan now, so how can they go south?

Of course, it was not surprising that he thought so.

Everyone didn't realize - or realized, but didn't want to think deeply - the Luoyang Chinese army was gone!

Just like Sima Teng's bear, can he contain the main force of the Huns?

If you can't contain it, people will go south in a big way, what can you resist?

It can be said that so far, there are not many people who are actively preparing to resist the Huns, Shao Xun is the one with the greatest strength, so he even asked for part of Concubine Pei's dowry, and he owes a favor that is not easy to repay in this life.

Facts will educate everyone, I just have to put my head down and do things.

On February 17, the army went out of the mountain road and arrived at the intersection of the East and West Erkun Mountains.

After resting for a day, we crossed the stone slab road of Xikun Mountain to the west, entered the first-line Tianguan Road with towering mounds on both sides, and arrived in Shaanxi County in the afternoon of the 20th, passing through the ancient city of Anyang.

There is no county order in Shaanxi County.

When the county officials saw the army of the Governor of Luoyang coming, they immediately opened the door to greet them.

Mi Huang's father and son and others entered the city to live temporarily, while Shao Xun stayed outside the city to command the army.

"Chen Yougen." Shao Xun sat on a baggage cart with a golden knife, took out a letter from his arms, and shouted.

"Yes." Chen Yougen immediately responded.

Because he drove for the Son of Heaven, he is now the deputy general of the ninth rank official, and he is the second official in the Shaw Group.

In this regard, Lao Chen is not very rare. His backbone is probably heavier than Shao Xun's.

"You come here." Shao Xun hooked his hand and said.

Chen Yougen leaned over.

"You take this letter and cross the river from Maojin to Hedong...... Shao Xun said in a low voice.

"No." Chen Yougen realized something, and couldn't help but ask: "Such a big event, why didn't the general go there himself?" ”

"I'm going to accompany the lieutenant around the neighborhood."

"Along the way, apart from mountains and hills, I don't think there's much to turn around. Why should you be so dedicated to the affairs of the court? Chen Yougen muttered.

"You don't understand." Shao Xun pretended to wave his hand and said: "I am in Anyang, my words are involved in Shaanxi, I am in the mouth of Manyu (du), and I am in the ruins of Caoyang. Beautiful! ”

"What the hell...... Chen Yougen carefully put away the letter and left quietly.

He seems to be rude, but in fact there is splendor, and he knows that visiting Pei's is a big deal. Therefore, in the afternoon of the same day, he took more than 20 horsemen to cross the river from Maojin, set foot on the land east of the river, and ran all the way.

Shao Xun took the time to draw simple maps for later use.

For him, this is not only a trip to show off his military might, but also a staff trip, which is important.
