Chapter 175 Picking up people [Please subscribe and vote monthly]

Shao Siming and Yan Lingji were silent. You said you knew martial arts, but did you use yourself as a container to absorb other people's internal energy to perform moves?

Is it because we can’t perform martial arts or do we have no hands and need to use your hands to perform them?

"what happened?"

When Li Ren and the other three saw the tent being split open, they ran over immediately, and then saw Yan Yan holding a long sword.

"Try out the new moves, don't stop for a while!" Yan Yan said calmly.

"Okay!" Li Ren and the other three were fine. They thought Yan Yan had been assassinated, which frightened them.

Just looking at the split tent, the cuts were smooth and neat, the three of them were still a little shocked. The sword marks were too sharp, and it would be difficult to do it without absolute martial arts cultivation and certain swordsmanship.

"This is the swordsmanship contained in the Eight Methods of Yongzi!" Yan Yan put away his sword and said calmly.

Yan Lingji and Li Ren looked at Yan Yan in surprise. Is this a personal explanation, a personal demonstration?

"Find someone to repair the camp, it's time for winter!" Yan Yan looked up at the sky. The sky looked a little yellow, which was a sign of heavy snowfall.

Sure enough, soon, Moton and Hu Dan came running.

"Heavy snow is coming!" Mao Dun said solemnly.

Every winter, countless cattle and sheep freeze to death on the grasslands, as well as a large number of herdsmen.

"Usually at this time, it's almost time for us to retreat, but this year..." Hu Dan sighed, with an indescribable solemnity between his brows.

If they cannot rush back to their respective pastoral areas before heavy snow blocks roads, the consequences will be unimaginable.

"The war on the frontline is getting intense. I'm afraid I have to wait until next spring if I want to go back!" Yan Yan thought about it. I'm afraid this heavy snowfall is what Li Mu is waiting for!

Under the heavy snow, it was difficult for the Hu people to retreat.

Similarly, as long as the Hu people are dragged behind Yanmen Pass and unable to return, the non-combat attrition of the Hu people in the coming year will be an extremely terrifying figure.

Without the young and strong grassland herdsmen tribes, I am afraid that more than half of them will completely disappear from the grasslands.

But this was Li Mu's plan, a trap set for the Hu people three years ago or even earlier.

The resistance at Yanmen Pass now looks stubborn and tenacious, as if it may be broken down at the next moment, which also makes the Hu army want to withdraw but are reluctant to let go of the fat in their mouths.

Therefore, the Hu Chinese Army is now debating whether to withdraw or continue to attack Yanmen Pass!

"The Chanyus will not retreat!" Modun said with certainty.

"Why?" Yan Yan and Hu Dan both looked at Mo Dun, wondering why he was so sure.

"Because this time the coalition forces went south with too much momentum and preparations took too long. If they return without success, the Chanyus will not be able to explain to their clansmen, and the Chanyus' prestige will also be threatened."

"So, they will never retreat back!"

Modu said seriously.

Yan Yan and Hu Dan also understood that in order to go south this time, Donghu Shanyu gathered almost all the large, medium and small tribes in the entire grassland, and the consumption of food, grass and livestock was also extremely terrible.

If he fails to succeed, Donghu Shanyu's prestige in the grassland will be absolutely threatened and he will lose his prestige.

The same goes for other chanyus. After all, the grasslands are dominated by tribes, and not all are absolute vassals of the royal court. If the royal court loses its troops but returns without success, then if the chanyus recruit again in the future, there will probably be no tribal scenes. from.

Therefore, no matter whether they are willing or not, the Chinese army cannot retreat from this battle! "Is this Li Mu's real plan?" Yan Yan suddenly wondered if Li Mu had guessed that this would be the case from the beginning, so he dared to lay such a trap and delay the war until winter.

"Is this a strategy to attack with troops?" Yan Yan also had a realization. This is what the art of war calls a strategy to attack with troops. Li Mu had already planned everything from the beginning, waiting for the barbarian to jump in on his own initiative.

Just as he was talking, the clouds in the sky gradually lowered, making the whole world gray and dim.

"Pa~" Yan Lingji looked up, feeling the coldness on her face, and then stretched out her hand. A snowflake fell into her palm. After feeling the warmth in her palm, it turned into water droplets.

"It's snowing!" Yan Lingji looked at Shao Siming and said.

They never appeared in the camp when Mao Dun and Hu Dan appeared, so the two of them were staying behind a small mound not far from Yongzi Camp.

Shao Siming also stretched out his white palms to catch the falling snowflakes.

From one or two here and there, they gradually grew bigger and bigger. Snow was flying all over the sky, but the temperature between heaven and earth became a little warmer when the snow fell.

"When it snows, the sky and the earth are warm. This may be the last warmth that God gives to the world, and then all the warmth is taken away overnight!" Yan Yan also stood in the wind and snow and whispered.

When Mao Dun and Hu Dan heard Yan Yan's words, they were also stunned. What did you say? You are so sad about spring and autumn, are you going to the Central Plains to serve as officials?

"After a storm, you will always see a rainbow, but after a snowstorm, you will always see a ghost!" Yan Yan lamented.

Hu Dan and Mao Dun were silent.

"But at least we are living well, right?" Yan Yan looked at Moton and Hu Dan with a smile.

They sold a large amount of livestock and military supplies from the baggage camp, and the things they got in exchange were sent back to their respective tribes early. Therefore, no matter how heavy the snow was, it would not affect their tribes.

"So, it's time for us to get to work!" Yan Yan said while looking at Mao Dun and Hu Dan.

"Work? What kind of work are you doing? What else can you do in this damn weather?" Both Moton and Hu Dan were puzzled.

"All the tribal armies from the entire grassland are here, so do you think the old, weak, women and children left behind in each tribe's garrison can survive this winter?" Yan Yan asked.

Mao Dun and Hu Dan shook their heads. Even if those young and strong soldiers were in their own tribes, they might not be able to survive the harsh winter.

"So, let's go pick people up!" Yan Yan said seriously.

"Pick someone up?" Hu Dan and Mo Dun still didn't understand.

"Don't understand?" Yan Yan looked at the two of them.

Hu Dan and Mao Dun shook their heads, they really didn’t understand!

"Then are you interested in coming with me?" Yan Yan asked with a smile.

"I'm extremely happy!" Mao Dun and Hu Dan nodded. Since they can't do anything in the snowy weather, they might as well see what tricks Yan Yan is playing.

Yan Yan smiled and rushed towards Yunzhong County with the Hu army that really belonged to the third prince Wu Mu Yajie.

This is the cross-section of the Yellow River, and it is also the location of Hohhot City in later generations, but now, it is called Yunzhong!

In the entire Yunzhong County, only the area around Yunzhong City belonged to the Zhao people, and the wider area belonged to King Lou Fan.

Therefore, Yunzhong and Jiuyuan are two nails stuck in the building.
