Chapter 156 Chapter 155
The end of the Battle of Liaodong ended with the disastrous defeat of Zuo Tuqi's tribe and Zuo Guliwang tribe.

A total of more than [-] troops were dispatched by the two ministries, but only more than [-] people fled back to Damu, which was a huge loss.

The only thing that can make Yu Dan and Yi Zhixie feel lucky is that their headquarters did not suffer too many losses, and they can still maintain a good strength among the Xiongnu.

As for the wandering tribes of the grassland, it’s a pity, but it’s not that the Xiongnu’s main tribe is gone. They are like the weeds on the grassland, and they will grow again after a while. No one just looted them everywhere. Fan, just annex all the small tribes nearby.

For the steppe people, conquering and being conquered is like everyday life.

All the way back to the tribe in a rage, but the scene in front of her when she first arrived in the tribe made Yi Zhi squint dumbfounded.

Where did I go?
What about so many people?

I saw that Zuoguli King's headquarters was in dilapidation, the yurts were crumbling, the cattle and sheep were gone, and there were traces of being burned by flames everywhere.

I just went to Kou for a side, and my home was stolen!

"Who! Such boldness! Don't let me find you out, or I will definitely tear you apart!"

Among Zuogu Liwang's tribe, Yizhi tilted his head to the sky and roared.

The same scene happened to Yu Dan who returned to Hulun Lake a little later. The area around Hulun Lake was looted and there were no herdsmen.

And far away in the west of Liaoning, Hu Shui looked back towards the direction of the grassland as if he had realized something, with an immoral smile on his face.

The tragedies suffered by Yu Shan and Yizhixie tribes were caused by him alone.

The total population of the two kings' headquarters, which totaled nearly [-], was plundered by him, and now the grasslands are full of spies sent by Zhang Qi, so Hu Shui didn't take much effort to send most of them through more than a dozen waves of spies. The passage sent back to Wuhuan.

And there are some on his own side, but these are the recruits he has absorbed.

Since Zhang Qi gave him the right to recruit troops independently, Hu Shui has been expanding the number of Youyi Army, and after looting the headquarters of the two kings, the number of Youyi Army has reached [-], which is several times higher than before.

With extra manpower, Hu Shui was not idle. The bandits in the west of Liaoning had to be bandits, and the efficiency of looting things would be higher when there were more people. The roads that were not dared to go before can now be taken, and with [-] troops, Neither the Han army nor the Huns in Liaoxi County dared to fight against him.

Liaodong.

After the news of Zhang Qi's victory was sent back to Xiangping that day, Zhang Yi heaved a long sigh of relief, and felt extremely grateful for the good friendship with Zhang Qi.

Before Zhang Qi turned out to be born, Wuhuan was also in his consideration, but Zhang Qi came too fast, and Wuhuan disappeared before he and Wuhuan had a chance to make friends.

It is time and fate, Wuhuan's disappearance made him meet a fierce man, first he defeated him with five million troops, and this time he rode an army of ten thousand and one hundred thousand Huns. It will never be as easy as eating and drinking like Zhang Qi.

He read and read the letter sent back from Wangping, but he still couldn't restore the scene of tens of thousands of people entering the battle in his mind.

The [-] Huns' army has retreated, and Liaodong is now as stable as an old dog. At the moment when all the counties are suffering losses, Liaodong's performance is as dazzling as the moon in the night sky.

As long as he sends the letter back to Chang'an, his official career will be bright.

How do you say that?

I am not a powerful person, and my strength is all set off by my peers.

During this period of time, Zhang Yi often looked at the letter sent back and laughed, and kept laughing at the return of his youngest son Zhang Guang and eldest daughter Zhang Chan.

After returning to the prefect's mansion, Zhang Guang heaved a sigh of relief when he saw his father intact. Although Zhang Qi told him that Liaodong was settled, his heart was always in suspense until he saw it with his own eyes.

But now that he saw it, the longing for his father in his heart could no longer be controlled. With a snap, he fell to his knees in front of Zhang Yi.

"The child is not filial! Come back late."

"Okay, okay, it's good to be back, Qi's side is fine, you haven't offended others, have you?"

Zhang Yi stroked his long beard with great comfort and helped Zhang Guang up.

Zhang Guang shook his head: "Father's foresight is right. After staying in my elder brother's tribe for a while, I found out that my elder brother is different from the Huns. Although his tribe still speaks nonsense, there are quite a few people who are proficient in official script.

Moreover, Hai'er also discovered that the elder brother's tribe has elementary education, and all school-age children receive enlightenment in it, and the texts they learn are also Chinese and official script. "

Zhang Yi glanced at Zhang Guang in surprise: "Since you call Qi your elder brother, does that mean you don't reject this marriage?"

Zhang Guang blushed a bit: "Father is the wise man, the child was a little ignorant before, blue and white are very good."

As he said that, his eyes also wandered around, not daring to look at Zhang Yi again.

"Hahaha, okay, okay, since that's the case, then pick an auspicious day to get married as soon as possible. You are not young anymore, and it's time to start a family."

Zhang Yi looked relieved, now that Zhang Qi's status in his heart has been raised again, for local rich families like them, betting on both ends is the most cost-effective thing, and the Han Dynasty has been weak for a long time, maybe it should be considered Think about the future.

The whole Han Dynasty knew about Mayi's conspiracy, and he was no exception. In addition to the revenge of the Huns and the bandits, Zhang Yi's confidence in the Han Dynasty dropped a lot.

Now that there is a tribe with great potential and amazing strength outside the Great Wall, it will inevitably make him think about it.

Zhang Chan, who was always by the side, coughed a few times watching the scene where the father and son were loving and filial. She didn't even know how long the two would look at each other without making a sound.

"Father, it's not just us who came back this time, my brother also sent a dowry, [-] each for cattle and sheep, [-] for horses, and some cloth and ginseng."

She is Zhang Guang's sister, so she also called Zhang Qi his elder brother just like Zhang Guang.

"Judging from the brother's dowry, he attaches great importance to Qinghua, and the dowry you want to give here should not be taken lightly."

Zhang Chan's words interrupted the father and son who were immersed in their respective worlds.

Zhang Yi came to his senses, and coughed to hide his embarrassment: "It's natural, when Counselor Lu came to pick you up last time, he revealed that Qi lacks some professionals.

In this way, you select some literate people from your servants, and arrange people to go to other places to collect some people who are good at mulberry, hemp, sewing and brewing as domestic servants, and some corresponding craftsmen are also selected by the way.

After all, Qi's place is outside the Great Wall, and these people should be able to help a lot. Besides, some transcribed books at home are also prepared, and [-] shi of grain and grass are used as a basis.

This is the betrothal gift I am waiting for Mrs. Zhang! "

"Daughter understands, now go and prepare with mother."

Zhang Chan gave a slight salute, and then walked towards the inner courtyard, her grandmother had already passed by.
