Han Dao world

Chapter 294 Victory in the First Battle
Wang Fu's subordinates came from the three cavalry battalions of the Northern Army: Yueqi Battalion, Tun Cavalry Battalion, and Changshui Battalion.

The cavalry of these three battalions originally came from the vassal state, but after living in Luoyang for many years, they actually became Luoyang people.The hardships and simplicity of the past are gone, but the habit of stealing, rape and cunning is increasing day by day.

Even the selected elites still have no advantage over the real Hun knights.

If the numbers were equal and the two armies faced each other, they might not have the courage, let alone a chance of winning.

But the situation is different now, the Huns have been defeated, even Luo himself has become a bereaved dog, chased by Zhang Yang and Wang Fu, and the tribe is about to be defeated. Those ordinary Huns are scattered and flee for their lives. There is also fighting spirit to speak of.

Facing these knights of the Han army who were eager to make a fortune, the Huns had no desire to fight at all, and they left immediately.Before even making contact, seeing the knights of the Han army approaching aggressively, they turned around and left.

Fighting depends on morale.

When morale is high, usually weak chickens can become fighting cocks.

When morale is low, real wolves will run away with their tails between their legs, and those with insufficient strength run as fast as rabbits, lest they be caught up and lose their lives.

This is the current portrayal of the knights and Huns of the Han army.

The knights of the northern army, who usually had no status among the three thousand elite knights, suddenly became invincible and strong, their mentality almost exploded, and they were even a little lonely.

It was not only the hundreds of knights whose horses were temporarily taken away by Wang Fu, but also the knights who did not follow Zhang Yang and Wang Fu to chase down and shoot down were almost the same.They used [-] people as a unit, and under the leadership of Qu Junhou, they chased the north and killed them wantonly.

According to the prior arrangement, they did not forget to rob the goods while killing people.

War horses bear the brunt of the strategic material, and they should be grabbed as much as possible.The arrows of the Huns are also good and can be used as a supplement.Some horn bows are exquisitely made, not weaker than the standard war bows of the Han army, and they are also collected together.

There are people who are greedy for money, their eyes are wide open, and when they see the Huns who are dressed a little more politely, they will chase after them and chop them.After chopping it down, search the whole body up and down, inside and out.

Although most of the Huns were poor, the nobles of the Huns were not.The knights of the Han army often had unexpected gains, and some valuables such as gold and jade were seized.

Along the way, Liu Xie saw several knights of the Han army smiling with the spoils they had just collected.

He pretended not to see it.

Of course, these knights were not the mighty teachers he expected, but everything had a process.Now that the imperial court is so impoverished that they can't even get the reward money, if they are not allowed to search for some loot, does it really depend on enlightenment?

It's a long road, don't rush.

Hu Chuquan and Aiken who accompanied him were heartbroken.

Some of the spoils looted from the Huns were originally Shan Yuting's property.

But they dared not say a word.

The law of the jungle was originally the law of survival on the grassland.Now that they are living under the fence, they can't even quell the internal rebellion. They can only rely on the strength of the Han people, and how dare they compete with the Han people for spoils.

In the evening, Liu Xie rushed to the hiding place of Luo's logistics troops.

This is a valley in the desert. A tributary of the river passes through the desert and wets a long and narrow valley.

Large tracts of cattle and sheep wander on both sides of the river, leisurely.

The Huns who were in charge of guarding the cattle and sheep did not wait for Luo's order, but waited for Zhang Xiu and Yubayashiqi who were like wolves and tigers. There was almost no substantive battle, and these Huns surrendered.

Since the Han people appeared here, Luo was naturally defeated, and there was no point in resisting.

Anyway, they are all slaves, and it may be more comfortable to be slaves of Han people.

When Liu Xie rushed to the valley, Zhang Xiu had already ordered the Huns to kill cattle and sheep, and was ready to celebrate.

Looking at the cattle and sheep all over the mountains and valleys, Liu Xie breathed a sigh of relief.

With these cattle and sheep, the combat time can be extended by at least half a month.

Just after dismounting, Liu Xie received another piece of good news: After chasing for nearly a hundred miles, Zhang Yang maintained his advantage to the end, cut off Luo's head, and was on his way back.

Feeling relieved, Liu Xie exchanged glances with Xun You and smiled knowingly.

Pei Jun and the others were not so deep in the city, and cheered excitedly. Even Cai Yan showed a bright smile, and his steps became much lighter.

Beheading Luo is equivalent to annihilating the right part of the Huns.

The first battle was won, and it was a victory that exceeded expectations. Anyone who heard it would be excited.

"Servant, please walk with me." Liu Xie said.

Xun You bowed to accept the order. "Dare not to obey."

The two arched their hands and walked slowly along the river.The breeze was blowing from the northwest, blowing away the smell of blood and livestock in the valley, making it much fresher.

"Next step, where should we hit?" Liu Xie asked.

"I think you should go to Meiji."

Liu Xie turned his face sideways, waiting for Xun You's explanation.

"The rebellion of the Huns was originally started by the tribes on the right who contacted Xiutu and the white horses and copper. The other tribes just waited and watched. It is impossible to get rid of the evil, and the right way is to punish the evil. If the fall is punished, the other tribes should know the choice and must gather in the Meiji. Your Majesty, according to Meiji, if Baimatong becomes a minister, His Majesty can reprimand him in front of the Xiongnu ministries. If Baimatong refuses to accept, His Majesty can issue an order to punish the thieves. How dare the ministries refuse to obey?"

Liu Xie was noncommittal.

He knew that Xun You's plan was good.When the head of the Huns is defeated, the other tribes must be scared, so take advantage of this opportunity to accept it as soon as possible, and teach as soon as possible, it may not be a choice.

But he doesn't think so.

He not only wants to use this to fight for power, but also wants to solve the problem of the integration of the Huns and completely relieve the border troubles, at least to lay the foundation.

"If I don't return to Luoyang, how will the situation in Shandong develop?" Liu Xie asked suddenly.

Xun You looked calm, showing no surprise.

"If my expectation is not bad, once Yuan Shao sends his troops south, Yanyu, Jingxu will definitely respond. Sun Ce in Yangzhou may have a change, and he may not be willing to bow his head and become a minister. Yizhou, with the danger of geographical advantages, may stick to it for a while. "

Liu Xie didn't change his face, and then said: "And then?"

Xun You's eyes flickered slightly, and he pondered for a moment. "Then Yuan Shao has two choices: one is to enter the court and take charge of the government, and the other is to fight against His Majesty."

"Will he become emperor?"

Xun You took a peek at Liu Xie out of the corner of his eye, and pondered for a moment. "It's possible, but not necessarily."

"Why?"

"Yuan Shao is resourceful and indecisive. Not only does he have the heart of disobedience, but he has been brewing for a long time. However, the great Han Dynasty has been in the world for four hundred years, and Guangwu has raised scholars for a hundred years. There is no shortage of loyal people. However, it may not be as smooth as Wang Mang's usurping the Han. Although Yuan Shao did not proclaim the emperor, although the ministers had objections, there was still room for maneuver. It is expected that the fierce ones will raise troops. Yuan Shao has some scruples, so he will inevitably hesitate."

"So, if Yuan Shao dares to proclaim himself emperor, the situation will be clearer?"

Xun You's heart tightened, he hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

Liu Xie also nodded, but did not speak.

Xun You looked at Liu Xie's calm side face, and his scalp tingled for a while.
