After a day or so of investigation, some Xiongnu did dress up as Han soldiers.

They blended into the city, and some of the Xiongnu took them as prisoners and went to Nanwa Town.

In this way, they could join forces with the outside and take advantage of the darkness to seize the city gate and let the other Huns in.

Liu Zhang and the others saw through the tricks of the Xiongnu, and Li Guang sent people to arrest the Xiongnu who pretended to be the Han army.

At the same time, the Han army was sent to Nanwa Town to capture those Xiongnu.

Liu Zhang and Zheng Nan did not participate in the operation, and Li Guang told them to rest in the city.

This little thing doesn't need Liu Zhang's action, and the ID card he proposed is feasible.

Liu Zhang provided the molded plastics, and Li Guanghui sent someone to make them and then distribute them to every soldier of the Han army.

All the Xiongnu who infiltrated Yunzhong County were captured alive, and the Xiongnu plan was shattered.

After interrogating the Huns, they also confessed truthfully.

Indeed, as Liu Zhang guessed, after seven days, the Xiongnu would attack Yunzhong County at night.

They wanted to rob the supplies in the county town and rescue the other Huns.

Liu Zhang suggested to Li Guang, it is better to make a plan.

Looking at the Huns, whether they dare to use this means to sneak attack in the future, not everyone can afford to sneak attack.

It's not that Liu Zhang and the Huns underestimate the Huns, but that the Huns' methods are not clever.

If you look closely, you can see that something is wrong.

Li Guang and the others quickly took measures and avoided huge losses.

This matter was not publicized to the public, and he still kept in touch with the Huns outside.

There are people in the Han army who understand the Xiongnu language, and if they meet a Xiongnu liaison.

Just take advantage of them and make them think the plan is going well.

Li Guang adopted Liu Zhang's suggestion, and perhaps could inflict another heavy blow on the Xiongnu.

Time passed quickly, and on this day, Liu Zhang was going to lead 5,000 Han troops to Wuwei County.

Song Shizhong was traveling with Liu Zhang, and he was going to Jiuquan County.

In the sixth year of Yuan Ding, Zhangye and Dunhuang two counties will be set up, and Wuwei and Jiuquan will correspond.

From then on, the Xiongnu could not roam freely in the land west of the river, which also cut off the connection between the Western Regions and the Xiongnu.

Liu Che's strategic goal was achieved, and the next step was to defend the land west of the river.

Huo Quzhi and others were recalled to Chang'an, and they had to rest in Chang'an for several months.

The defensive task was handed over to Liu Zhang and them, and it was also a test of their ability.

According to Liu Zhang's performance during this time, Liu Che was very satisfied.

only let him defend Wuwei County, he was still more partial to Huo Quai.

gave part of Wei Qing's military power to Huo Quai, not wanting his military power to be too large.

On the other hand, in order to cultivate younger generals, Liu Zhang's status in Liu Che's mind was not as good as Huo Quai's.

Liu Zhang doesn't care about these either, in the past few months, his record is no smaller than Huo Qu's illness.

He didn't have any complaints, they were all about fighting the Huns, so there was really no need to care what others thought?

After Liu Zhang and the others left, it was really difficult for him to return to the Red River Valley by plane accompanied by a simulated human robot.

Liu Zhang and Song Shizhong rode their horses to the west, and it has snowed heavily on the grassland in the past few days.

There was a thick layer of snow on the ground, and the speed at which the horses galloped was much slower.

There were no more Xiongnu on the grassland, and most of the Xiongnu retreated to Mobei.

They were really afraid that the Han army would attack the Xiongnu tribes, especially Liu Zhang.

It was safer for the Xiongnu to retreat to Mobei, and when the spring flowers bloomed, they would return to Monan.

"I went to the land west of the river, and I don't know when I will be able to go home. You've only been together for three days, and you're going to separate again, aren't you a little reluctant? ”

"It's a little reluctant, but you have a task on your side, and you haven't been back to meet Xiaosheng for a long time."

Liu Zhang felt that he was a little better, and Song Shizhong had been away from home for almost two years.

"I also want to, I also have a very important task."

If you don't struggle, you won't be able to rise to your status.

He is different from Liu Zhang, even if he doesn't do anything, he can enjoy endless glory and wealth for the rest of his life.

"Even if you don't come to fight the Huns, you and your family don't have to worry about food and clothing, but I'm different."

Song Shizhong only has envy and wants his family to live a better life.

He had to work harder, and his efforts were not in vain.

Liu Zhang observed the surroundings as the drone reconnoitred near the road they were heading on.

The drone sent a message to Liu Zhang that some Huns had been spotted looking for food in the snow.

Those Huns carried knives and bows and arrows, and they did not have armor-piercing charms.

They wore shabby animal skin robes, and they searched the snow for prey.

Or digging wild vegetable roots, they did not dare to run to the border of the Han Dynasty.

Those Xiongnu were more than thirty miles away from Liu Zhang's side, and the Xiongnu were vigilant around.

They were really afraid of encountering the Han army, they were just looking for food to satisfy their hunger.

They didn't want to fight the Han army, and if they encountered the Han army, they quickly fled.

"About thirty miles from here to there, there are two hundred Huns, and they are looking for food in the snow."

Liu Zhang pointed to the northwest direction, he did not want to lead the Han army to kill or capture those Xiongnu.

He didn't want to waste time, so let these Huns go for the time being.

"Regardless of them, it is estimated that there are not many of those Huns. We have to rush to Wuwei County as soon as possible, and when we get to the place, we can have a good rest. ”

The rest of the road will be very hard, avoid the Xiongnu gathering places as much as possible.

They did not have a combat mission, and the Huns did not want to fight at this time.

They rested for an hour, and then they mounted their horses and continued westward.

In the evening, they chose a good place to camp and rest.

There are Xiongnu activities in this vicinity, and they should be highly vigilant.

"We can only rest here at night, not only to guard against wild beasts, but also against the Huns."

Liu Zhang set up the tent and heard a wolf howl in the distance.

The beast is not terrible, what is terrible is the enemy's sneak attack.

Everyone is highly stressed, and it is difficult to rest well in this environment.

After a day of travel, and he couldn't help but rest, Liu Zhang decided to be on duty in the first half of the night.

Song Shizhong stayed in the second half of the night, and everyone could rest assured.

He sent humanoid robots to watch around, and they couldn't let their guard down.

"I'll keep watch in the first half of the night, and you'll keep watch in the second half of the night."

Liu Zhang looked at the time, and it was seven o'clock in the evening.

At twelve o'clock in the morning, the two of them changed shifts, and more than 2,000 Han troops were responsible for the vigil.

"Did you hear the sound of horses' hooves?"

Liu Zhang heard the sound of horses' hooves coming from in the distance, which meant that the enemy was approaching.

"Your hearing is so sharp, I didn't hear it."

Song Shizhong shook his head slightly, he only heard the wind.

The night was bitterly cold, and snow was falling in the sky.

The men were coming towards them, and the wind was carrying the sound of horses' hooves.

The android robot sent him a message that a pair of Hun cavalry was coming this way.

Let Liu Zhang be prepared, there are really Huns who come out and run around at this time.

It seems that we have to be ready for battle, and those Huns are only a few hundred.

And the Han army has 5,000 people, and the advantage is on Liu Zhang's side.

If the Xiongnu had known that the Han army was several times outnumbered, they would have galloped away.

"If they don't attack us, you don't have to worry about them. Now it's possible not to fight, try not to fight. ”

It's not that Liu Zhang was afraid of those Huns, but he didn't want the Han army to have casualties.

As long as they can deter those Huns, they will leave with great interest.

The two sides are at peace, if the Huns don't know what to do.

Then wipe them all out, and you can't delay too long on the way to Wuwei County.

The Huns, who had been scattered ten months ago, were getting closer and closer to their camp.

They met on the steppe, and they gathered together.

Some of these Xiongnu belonged to the king of Lou Fu, some belonged to the king of Hutu, and some belonged to the king of Hun evil.

These Hun kings were defeated, those who were killed were killed, and those who surrendered surrendered.

A part of the Xiongnu was scattered, and they could only flee for their lives in all directions.

A few Hun scouts came over here, and they first reconnoitred the surrounding situation.

If you encounter a large number of Han troops, then quickly run around.

They didn't want to be wiped out or captured alive by the Han army, and the Huns were left homeless.

The other Xiongnu nobles were reluctant to take them in, and they could only wander around the steppe.

They also did not want to become slaves of the Han nobles, and the Xiongnu nobles did not accept them.

"A couple of Hun scouts came over, grabbed them, and asked them something."

Liu Zhang sent more than 200 Han troops over and captured the Hun scouts alive.

More than 200 Han troops mounted their war horses, and they set off from four directions.

There were more than fifty Han troops in each direction, and it was unlikely that the Xiongnu would come with a few hundred.

It didn't take long for the Han army to return, and they captured eight Hun scouts alive.

These Xiongnu did not resist, and when they encountered the Han army, they directly threw away their weapons.

They also did not run away, they knew that if they escaped, they would be shot by the Han army with bows and crossbows.

The Huns are not stupid, as long as they have a chance to live.

They will cooperate well, and if the Han generals are happy, they can reward them with some food.

Maybe they will be released, some of the Huns are disgusted with war.

They saw no hope of victory, but they could not avoid war.

The Xiongnu scouts brought Liu Zhang and Song Shizhong to them, and then asked them some valuable information.
