Chapter 84 Arriving in Yuyang (for subscription)

Early the next morning, the two parties parted ways.

The two sides actually went along the way before reaching Taiyuan, but Huo Shan's speed was too fast for them to keep up, so Huo Shan could only take a step ahead.

Instead, the route was changed. Originally, he was sneaking away. Huo Shan planned to go from Hongnong, and there was a trail going directly to Hebei through Xiaoshan, and then to Hedong. The road was not very easy.

Now that there is the Snake Slaying Sword, it is naturally a good road to walk, just go up from Huayin Turn to Hedong, and the rest of the journey is the same.

The small prefectures in various places can still supply food and grass, the horses can also eat better, and they can do a better job of keeping warm at night.

Although it's only been two days and nothing has gone wrong, but running in the ice and snow for half a month, it's impossible to die, but the horse's legs will definitely suffer from frostbite.

If you get frostbite, you have to change horses, which will damage your combat power for nothing. Now that you have the Snake Sword and the supplies from the local Shaofu, it will definitely be better, and Wuhuan can also save some.

On the nineteenth day of the first lunar month, he arrived at Hedong.

On the 23rd of the first lunar month, I arrived in Taiyuan, rested overnight, and then set off, turning to the north-east direction of Zhongshan.

On the night of the 26th of the first lunar month, he arrived in Lunu, the capital of Zhongshan, and had a rest for a day on the 27th under the hospitality of the King of Zhongshan.

Starting in the early morning of the 28th, there are still five hundred miles away from the final destination, which is a three-day journey. Huo Shan ordered that he must arrive within two days.

On the afternoon of the 29th of the first lunar month, 3000 members of the Habayashi Army finally arrived at Gushui outside Yuyang City, which was only a dozen miles away from Yuyang.

In the last two days, I ran nearly 250 miles a day, um, within the normal range.

Even if there are supplies from the Shaofu in these fourteen days, it is not easy.

But fortunately, the ground was frozen, and the road was better. There were hundreds of horses with frostbitten legs and cracked hooves. There are still protective measures.

Not one of the dead horses was dead, but all of them were limp.

But it's okay, after five or six days, it will be back to normal.

The frostbitten horse had no choice but to exchange it with Wuhuan, and let Wuhuan take good care of the injured horse.

The horse is not a big problem, and the soldiers are also full of enthusiasm, without any fatigue after the long journey.

Because the news of going to the battlefield has spread since meeting Wei Qing and leaving Guanzhong.

Most of them joined the army to fight for meritorious service. They practiced for nearly three years, and every day was boring training.

Now that it is finally time to go to the battlefield, it can be said that it is full of enthusiasm and expectations are overflowing!
.........

Huo Shan exhaled a breath of white air, and the fair skin on his face turned blue from the cold.

Huo Shan looked up at the dark sky, then looked at the surrounding environment, and couldn't help sighing:
"Northern scenery, thousands of miles of ice, thousands of miles of snow..."

Everything that came into view was covered with a layer of white snow.

Although Huo Shan was sighing, his heart was a little heavy.

Because it has not snowed for seven or eight days, and the snow has not melted, we can see how cold the weather is.

This is still in Shanggu, Yuyang and other places. I don't know how cold the Huns in the north are.

"It seems that we should bring some medicinal materials and lard for frostbite."

Huo Shan murmured something softly, then turned his head to look at the group of people who were standing not far from Li Yu and were sizing up Li Yu.

Huo Shan walked over, glanced around, and said with a smile:

"I've been watching it for more than ten days, haven't I seen enough?"

Shangguan Jie laughed:
"Huixiaowei, this kind of BMW, no matter how much you look at it, you can't get enough of it!"

"Exactly."

Don't blame them, Li Yu is indeed a bit magical.

The war horses in the Yubayashi Army are all the best war horses of the big men, but after more than ten days of journey, they are all a bit listless.

But Li Yu was different, she was still in high spirits, which was not the reason why they were surprised.

After all, there was a champion next to her. At least Li Yu could tell that she was on her way. The champion was like a normal horse.

What amazed them was the champion's skin color. Because the blood-sweating horse's skin is too thin and has dense capillaries, after exercise, the silver-white skin turned pink.

If you walk in and look at her chest, you can vaguely see the blood flowing in the blood vessels under the skin.

It's just so beautiful, and the ability to change skin tone is just amazing.

Li Yu simply takes all men and women, no matter who you are, you will always attract attention when you see her.

"Haha, don't look at it. After we finish fighting the Huns, we will go to the Western Regions and get a horse for each of you. If there are outstanding soldiers in this Huns battle, we will reward them."

"Is what my lord said true?"

Zhao Ponu looked overjoyed, and so did everyone else.

They also knew about the blood-sweat horse. It was a heavenly horse named by His Majesty, and it was an imperial horse.

So unless His Majesty rewards you or the King of Dawan personally tells you to give it to you, or you run to catch it yourself, it is impossible to get it.

Because even if Dawan was taken down, the usual Dawan horse would be fine, but such a top-notch hard-working horse, don't even think about it, it belongs to Liu Che.

But if Huo Shanfa said it, it would not be a problem to buckle a few horses.

"Nature is true."

After finishing speaking, Huo Shan looked at Yuyang, and saw that there were people coming from the other side of the river, so he said:
"Go down and line up, get ready."

"promise."

It has been a quarter of an hour since they came here. Dong Ming took people to report the situation and asked them to come out to greet them. The meeting finally came.

If it was just Huo Shan who led the army himself, it wouldn't be so troublesome, but he still has the Snake Slaying Sword in his hand, so Huo Shan represented the Liu family.

There are not many opportunities to feel Liu's divine power, so they need to welcome them.

Huo Shan got on his horse, tidied his clothes, and saw the Yulin lined up behind him, Huo Shan nodded to Sun Shang.

Sun Shang cupped his hands, and then the melodious horn sounded, and the entire Habayashi Army straightened their waists.

The trumpet was blown three times, and the ceremony and music on the other side of the river began to sound. Huo Shan sat on his horse and waited quietly.

This is the festival welcoming ceremony, although Huo Shan has not experienced it personally, but he has read the book, and with his mind, the process is naturally very clear.

After the first two rituals and music, Huo Shan started to walk towards the bridge, followed by the Habayashi army.

The river is not wide, so the distance is a bit farther, otherwise it would be bad if the last ceremony and music arrived without the end.

Huo Shan pressed the speed ahead, and the Habayashi army followed him across the bridge one after another, and then the whole team stood on the open space left on the other side of the river.

The people on the other side of the river looked at the uniform, even after a long journey, the Habayashi Army was still mighty and extraordinary, and they all sighed in their hearts.

'This is the Dahan Tianjun! '

On weekdays, they look down on the soldiers of the Northern Army. In their eyes, the Northern Army is because they are close to the emperor and well equipped.

If that layer of skin is removed, maybe who is more powerful.

In short, it's because they are unbalanced in their hearts. Their frontier army has been fighting all year round, and they can't get enough to eat. If there is a big war, they will come to take their credit.

But the Habayashi Army taught them a small lesson.

From Huo Shan's point of view, the Yulin Army at this time was actually in a mess, without any armor, and only equipped with knives, bows and arrows.

But it was the embarrassment in Huo Shan's eyes, the discipline and strong morale after the long journey that convinced them, because they couldn't do it.

They couldn't run [-] miles in fourteen days, let alone the morale of the soldiers.

The last ritual and music was completed, and the Habayashi Army stood in the queue, and the time was just right.

The people who greeted him began to go forward one by one to pay respects. First, Captain Hu Wuhuan knelt in the snow:
"Fang Shuo, the captain of the Ministry of Defense Wuhuan, welcomes the angel and welcomes the little prince."

Then came the others.

"Ijili, the leader of the Wuhuan tribe..."

"Chen Yuyang County Sheriff..."

"The Chancellor of Yuyang County..."

……

"I wait for the three elders of Yuyang City to welcome the angel and welcome the little prince."

"Everyone is in peace."

These people hesitated for a while, then stood up.

According to the usual practice, Huo Shan will give some reprimands and praises, and they will kneel down to listen.

This is the majesty of the angels of the Han family, under the restraint, it is as if I came in person.

Not to mention that what Huo Shan was holding was the Snake-Slaying Sword, and there was no comparison between Yan Jie and the Snake-Slaying Sword.

Huo Shan asked them to get up. One was because of those old men, and the other was because he loved his horses. It was not easy to stand more in the ice and snow.

"The prefect of Yuyang..."

The prefect of Yuyang shuddered, stepped out, and raised his hand in salute tremblingly:

"The minister... the minister is here."

"What are you shaking?"

Huo Shan frowned and looked at him.

"Chen Chen... Chen is not resistant to cold, it's freezing."

He couldn't help but not be afraid, the envoys of the Han family had unlimited rights, even if he cut off all the officials in Yuyang, it would not be impossible.

The last prefect of Yuyang was chopped down by the envoys with his own eyes. The reason is that he took money and gave convenience to a North Korean caravan.

At that time, it was a war, and who made him hit the muzzle of the gun.

If I come in person, it is really like I come in person, the imperial power does not go to the countryside, there is no such saying at this time.

Not to mention the rumors of Huo Shan being domineering in the Northland.

From their point of view, Huo Qubing is crazy, so is Huo Shanna, so it is a rumor.

Huo Shan glanced at Zhan Snake Sword speechlessly, tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk terrified the two thousand shi official like this.

"Since you can't tolerate the cold, then take your Yuyang official back to the city."

The prefect of Yuyang was a bit agitated, and he was relieved to see that Huo Shan didn't intend to find trouble, but what do you mean by not going to the city?
So the prefect of Yuyang saluted again, and asked tentatively:
"My little lord, my Yuyang yamen and the elders of Yuyang prepared a banquet together, and I would like to invite you to condescend to come to the banquet..."

Huo Shan looked at the expectant eyes of these people, thought for a while and said:
"Then three days later."

Huo Shan understood their thoughts.

It was nothing more than the young mansion bringing soldiers over, and he led the soldiers, and they wanted to ask if there was a big battle at the banquet.

If there is a big battle, they have to prepare in advance. Running away doesn't exist. Their mind is to see if they can intervene and follow him to make some merit.

It can only be said that Huo Shan's guess is very close to ten.

As for the news of Huo Shan's arrival, whether the Xiongnu will know, there is a possibility, but the probability is not high.

If it was normal, Huo Shan would come to the frontier, the Xiongnu would definitely know the news, after all, he is the champion.

But now, Uwe Shanyu died, Er Shanyu succeeded to the throne, and with the heavy snow, the internal instability of the Xiongnu, such a good opportunity, the border soldiers also launched several small attacks.

They are too busy to take care of themselves, and the grassland is covered by heavy snow, they are probably hiding in tents with sad faces.
