Shi Le also came to Dongping.

Looking at this empty field, he had an illusion, as if he only needed 20,000 or 30,000 cavalry and tens of thousands of infantry troops to penetrate it and drink the Yangtze River.

Then he laughed to himself, that is, he was just penetrating, and he could not talk about establishing a solid rule.

If you cross Henan counties and counties, the local scholars will not see you, and will even receive money and food to let you leave quickly. But if you want to be a sitting tiger and stay and rule, it's not that simple.

After two years of fighting with the Hebei Shi clan, Dahu has understood this.

The three states of Henan, Yan and Xu are easy to win but difficult to conquer.

Once a large army is sent from Yangzhou and Jingzhou to the north, the Henan Shi clan is likely to take refuge in the past and provide them with food.

Henan is not his territory, so there is no need to work too hard.

"General." Peach Leopard and others rode up.

"Are you ready?" Shile stopped his thoughts and asked.

"General, give the order." Everyone said.

"Let's go!" With a loud wave, Shile followed with a large group of cavalry, filling the field like mercury.

And before them, thousands of infantry troops had already set off early, and the goal was directly aimed at Xiaqiu.

In the direction of Juancheng, the city gate is closed in broad daylight.

Yang Mao pretended to stand calmly at the head of the city, constantly boosting morale.

The Huns did not stay long under the city, and disappeared after a while.

For them, looting is even more important. There are only seven or eight days of water on the body, and the fortified city is still left to the infantry to gnaw.

Shi Le, Liu Ya, Jin Zhun, and Hu Yanyan, each leading the cavalry ranged from thousands to more than 10,000, and rushed into the eastern part of Yanzhou.

On the 26th, Shile entered Puyang.

On the 27th, Jin Zhun invaded Gaoping, Liu Ya wreaked havoc in Jibei, and Huyan Yan entered Mount Tai.

At this time, three pontoon bridges in the area of Dongwuyang have been repaired, more and more infantry have crossed the river, and more than 100 forts in Jibei, Dongping, Gaoping, Rencheng, Taishan, and Puyang counties have been lowered one after another, offering money and grain.

At the same time, Cao Wei and Zhao Gu had been going south from Qingzhou for a few days, but they did not come to Yanzhou.

The entire eastern Henan region is fishy.

Cao Fu sat in Xuchang, although he was old and lacked energy, but at this critical moment, he still tried his best to raise his spirit and formulate a strategy.

"The news is broken again, fuck." Chen Yougen slapped the stone table and said angrily.

Li Chong's face was calm and he didn't say anything.

It's not the first time I've fought with the Huns, what's the point of being cut off?

At this time, don't be smart enough to send any messengers, it's too dangerous.

"There's a root, and the people are almost gathered, right?" Cao Fu, who was pretending to be asleep, suddenly asked.

Xiaohong served some snacks to the three of them, then glanced at Chen Yougen in fear and slipped away.

"It's almost, there are more than 7,000 war auxiliaries in total." Chen Yougen said: "Can you fight a dozen? ”

"Can you do one person and two horses?"

"I can't."

"What about a donkey and a mule?"

"If you wait a few more days, you may be able to make it up." Chen Yougen said: "However, the military situation is like fire, do you need to wait?" ”

Cao Fu was silent for a moment and said, "You go to Chen County first, and assist in the four counties of Yangxia, Chen, Xiang, and Ku." The old man was worried that if there was no army to suppress the formation, Chen Gong's hard work for several years would be ruined. Besides, Lu Yuzhou's side - you better go. ”

After learning that the Xiongnu crossed the river from Dongwuyang, the string in Lu Zhi's heart suddenly tightened.

He immediately sent a letter to Xuchang, asking for a group of troops to come over, and named the government soldiers.

From the Fugou to the item, two or three hundred miles are mostly earthen enclosures, with battalions as units. A soil enclosure is only a few hundred strong, and it will definitely not be able to withstand the siege of the enemy army, so it asks Xuchang to send reinforcements.

"The Yamen Army." Cao Fu looked at Li Chong again and said, "Stay in Xuchang for the time being." Chen Gong's family is all in the city, and there must be no loss. The old man has sent 5,000 soldiers from Xuchang to Kaocheng to listen to the command of the king of the East China Sea and the concubine. ”

Xuchang Shibing sent thousands of people north to Xingyang, but they have not been recovered for the time being. After sending out 5,000 men, there were almost 5,000 soldiers left in the city.

Cao Fu did not trust these newly attached armies, and they must be suppressed by the Yamen Army.

The four recruits of the Silver Lance Army and the 5,000 Tuntian Army were led by Hou Feihu and went to Weicang to collect ships in case of emergency.

Lao Cao put on a posture of defending the city.

It's not the best choice, but it's a decent response.

******

On September 25, it was another sunny day.

On the Yang Canal, the ships were lined up one after another, almost to the edge of the sky.

Yang Canal is an artificial canal that flows through Luoyang since the Han Dynasty.

In the west of Luoyang City, it is called "Qianjin Canal", after passing the north Xia Gate and Guangmo Gate of the north of the city, it winds to the south, passes through Jianchun Gate, Dongyang Gate, and then goes all the way to the east, and connects Luoshui at the boundary of Gongxian County, this section is called "Jiuqudu".

After Shao Xun passed through Gong County, the fleet and convoy went west along the artificial canal of Jiuqudu, and stationed outside the second gate of Jianchun and Dongyang.

The reason why Taicang is repaired in Dongyang Gate is actually for one reason: it is convenient to unload.

On the day of Shao Xun's arrival, Wang Yan, Xun Fan, Liu Jun, and Liang Fen went out of the city to meet each other.

"The Huns retreated?" Shao Xun pointed to a messy battlefield and asked.

"This matter depends on Liang Gong." Wang Yan knew that Shao Xun was in a hurry, and immediately explained: "Knowing that reinforcements were coming, the Huns stormed Dongyangmen and Jianchunmen, but the forbidden army fought them. coincided with the arrival of the Liang Gong soldiers, and the Xiongnu broke away. ”

Shao Xun nodded.

He was too lazy to compete with Liang Fen for the merit of King Qin, there was no need.

More than 70 boats loaded more than 300,000 grains, and this credit is even greater.

He only wanted to figure out one thing now.

"Taiwei, you have been in Luoyang from beginning to end, do you think the Huns are serious about fighting?" Shao Xun asked.

Wang Yan hesitated for a moment and said, "Not really." ”

Shao Xun understood.

Even people like Wang Yan, who don't know much about military affairs, can see that the Xiongnu's offensive is not fierce, so it only shows one thing: the Xiongnu's target is not Luoyang.

This is the same as his previous judgment.

"Where did the Huns retreat?" He asked again.

"Retreat to Mengjin." Liang Fen stepped forward and said: "I sent Beigong Chun to lead the army to pursue and defeat the enemy, one Xiongnu fled westward, passed Xin'an, and most of them retreated to Mengjin. There were many people on Meng Jin's side who tried to ambush Beigong Chun, but they didn't succeed. When the Liangzhou soldiers retreated, they saw a fire in the direction of Mengjin from a distance, and the Huns should have burned the pontoon bridge and retreated to the north bank. ”

"How many enemy troops are there in Hanoi?"

"Only the old man can answer this." Liang Fen glanced at Shao Xun deeply, decided to sell his favor, and said: "My department captured the thief general, and learned that the puppet Han Hanoi Wang Cang was stationed in Yewang, and then went east to Ji County. ”

When Shao Xun heard this, he suddenly felt that the fog of war that had been shrouded in the sky before had finally been torn apart.

There are two possibilities: first, the Xiongnu attracted him to Luoyang and besieged him under the city; Second, the Xiongnu avoided the real and attacked the two states of Yanyu and Henan.

The first one may have already been ruled out.

Now it is almost certain that the Huns beat his lair.

"Quan Zhong, don't you enter the city to see the Son of Heaven?" Wang Yan asked on the side.

Shao Xun looked at the ships that were unloading one by one, shook his head, and said, "Captain, can you find a way to gather more manpower and vehicles to speed up the unloading of grain?" I'm in a hurry to come back. ”

Wang Yan was stunned for a moment and said: "The Son of Heaven intends to gather all the armies and expel the remnants of the Huns, you ......"

"Expel a bird!" Shao Xun scolded: "The thief's situation is unknown, don't act rashly." Who knows how many Huns there are in the wild? It's all speculation. ”

Wang Yan nodded silently.

Xun Fan and Liu Jun also looked ashamed, obviously they did not admonish the Son of Heaven.

To tell the truth, they were very satisfied with Shao Xun's behavior of escorting the grain into Beijing, which not only relieved Luoyang's urgent needs, but also greatly boosted the morale of the defenders.

If he doesn't come, it's a real disappointment.

Forbearance for the country was proposed by him, and no one can do without anyone, which can be described as both prosperity and loss. Do you really think that in despair, the court has no means to balance you?

Fortunately, he came, and his character is really good. If you can do anything, you can do it.

Now that he is leaving, it is actually reasonable, there is no need to stay too difficult.

With the 14,000 cavalry brought by General Wei Liang Fen, the food is available again, and the morale of the defenders has been greatly boosted, so there should be no major problems in the future.

Wang Yan didn't talk nonsense, and immediately sent people back to the city, mobilized some of the guards of the city, collected carts, and prepared to go out of the city to unload grain.

Shao Xun breathed a sigh of relief.

The Yang Canal connects the lakes in the city, such as Zhai Spring, Tianyuan Pond, Green Water Pool, and Jiulong Pool, and if the boats enter the city one by one through the Water Gate (the waterway hole in the city wall is located near the Dongyang Gate), and then unload the goods after anchoring, it is too slow, and he can't wait.

But even then, it now takes two or three days to fully unload.

However, after walking all the way, the soldiers were physically and psychologically tired, and they urgently needed to rest and recuperate, and by the way, replenish some supplies.

Seeing that there was nothing to do, Xun Fan and Liu Jun said goodbye and left, and returned to the palace to report.

Shao Xun pulled Liang Fen and Wang Yan to talk again.

"Liang Gong, can you lend me the cavalry at hand?" Shao Xun asked.

I was a little embarrassed to say this.

The Liangzhou soldiers are Zhang Liang's, and the task is King Qin, but because of the fall of Chang'an, he didn't go back for the time being.

The imperial court temporarily handed over this force to Liang Fen to lead, and if the road was opened in the future, they would probably have to go back.

What's the matter with following you to war now?

Liang Fen didn't say whether he agreed or disagreed, but said: "Now there are still more than 2,000 horsemen and more than 2,600 foot soldiers." I could have them go to war with you if I gave the order, but—"

"I owe Liang Gong a favor." Shao Xun said: "There will be rewards in the future. ”

Wang Yan sighed beside him and said, "There is no one else here, so the old man said it directly." In today's situation, no one can live without anyone. Helped Quan Zhong once, let him take care of the difficult things, if the Huns come to Luoyang again, Quan Zhong can still come to King Qin. General Liang, helping others is helping yourself. ”

Liang Fen was silent for a moment, and suddenly sighed: "Chen Gong took 20,000 horses and horses all the way, broke through many obstacles, and arrived in Luoyang. Such a strong combat power is really rare. ”

Shao Xun looked at him and waited for the following.

"That's fine." After experiencing this time, Liang Fen also had some thoughts in his heart, so he sighed: "I'll let Beigong Chun come over in a while, and you can discuss with him how to move." ”

"Xie Lianggong." Shao Xun bowed and thanked him sincerely.

He vaguely felt that Liang Fen and Wang Yan seemed to have guessed the movements of some of the main forces of the Huns.

After thanking Liang Fen, Shao Xun looked at Wang Yan again and said, "Taiwei, can you let the imperial court be accommodating and lend me the Xiao cavalry?" ”

Wang Yan's eyes widened.
