The son of Yuan Shao who traveled through the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 85

After the war, Tian Chou took people to count the number of people. During the service, our army killed [-] soldiers, killed more than [-] enemies, and captured [-] Wuhuan elite string-controlling soldiers.It can be said that the smallest sacrifice was exchanged for a big victory.It's a pity that at this time, people were exhausted, and they couldn't immediately pursue the enemy across the river, and couldn't take advantage of the situation to expand the results of the battle.

Our army spends a whole day dealing with the battles with many casualties and often collecting the food, weapons, horses, camps and other rich spoils left by the Wuhuan army.The enemy's corpses were collected and burned to ashes with firewood, and the wounded became prisoners.Our soldiers were gathered together to hold a public sacrifice at dusk. They killed horses and offered them in front of the tent to lay a memorial service for the dead. The clothes were cremated together, and then the ashes were collected and brought back to their hometown for burial.I personally mourned with tears and recited the eulogy written by Guo Jia. The sincere and touching eulogy made everyone cry.

The glorious task of collecting trophies is entrusted to brother Zhou Cang. He intends to disobey the general order, but I told him that when cleaning the battlefield, the collected trophies include food, and all of them belong to him, so he will not speak. up.Zhou Cang was sweating profusely from moving the corpse, and seeing me and Tian Feng Jiaxu coming from a distance, he shouted at the top of his voice, "Master, you lied to me, here, there is no food, nothing, not even a piece of dry food Do you see the shadow?" I smiled from a distance; "When we invade Liucheng, not only will I give you food, but I will also give you the wives who spoiled you. That's okay." Zhou Cang said angrily; "Her wife , I don’t want it, and that thing can’t be eaten, why do I want her, if you want to give it to me, give me one.” Both Tian Feng Jiaxu and I laughed out loud.Tian Feng scolded: "This bear is Huaichun." Jia Xu shook his folding fan and felt sour; "Eat sex, and eat sex."

Tian Feng smiled, and suddenly said with a bitter face: "Young master, what do you think we will do with so many Wuhuan captives we have captured? Let's collect them. Those who are not of our race will have different hearts. They are afraid that they will rebel against each other in the future, so let them go back. Well, it's even more impossible, isn't that just asking for trouble?" Jia Xu blurted out; "There is an open space over there—" Tian Feng and I lost our voices together; "Killing——"

"I've thought about this, but Liucheng hasn't been breached yet. If the massacre is going on now, the people of Wuhuan will rise up and fight to the death. It's not good." In order to save Jia Xu's face, I tried to be as tactful as possible.Jia Xu laughed and said, "Young master, don't worry about it. You can test your ears with your jokes. You are a benevolent master with a kind heart." I thought to myself, this kid is not bad, and he has a good heart.But I thought in my heart, it's not that I have a kind heart, it's that Mr. Jia's scheme is too vicious.

I thought for a while and said: "Actually, these Wuhuan soldiers can be recruited." Tian Feng turned pale with fright, sweated, and his neck became thick, and said loudly; "I would rather agree with Mr. You can't let the young master recruit these capricious jackals." Jia Xu thought to himself, what the hell, it's my strategy, okay, once it's done, even Lao Tian is on my side.He patted Tian Feng on the shoulder to signal the friendship of the alliance.

"Mr. Tian, ​​why is this?" I smiled wryly.

Tian Fengyi was strict in his words and said sharply: "These Wuhuan soldiers usually have poor military discipline, and they are ungrateful for profit. They like to burn, kill and loot. The military discipline is even worse. No, this is not a problem of military discipline, but the Wuhuan people's combat. Traditionally, they fought to rob supplies and feed them with war. You said, if such a team was brought back to Jizhou, wouldn’t the Central Plains be in chaos? Moreover, at this time, Tadun is still alive and Liucheng is far away. Cut the weeds and eradicate the roots, if the day comes back, you only need to climb up and look far away, or send a message to these Wuhuan remnants, let's rebel, and cooperate with each other, then don't talk about Youzhou—my son, Even Jizhou is fucking over."

Both Jia Xu and I were stunned as if struck by lightning, not surprised by his words, but surprised that Mr. Tian, ​​who is usually well-dressed and the most image-oriented, said "fucking" so powerfully.

I saw that Tian Feng was really in a hurry, and he was going to come to the same deadly remonstrance with my father again, so I hurriedly dissuaded him; According to Mr. Jia Xu's words, it's easy to kill them all." Jia Xu thought to himself, pretending to be an innocent girl for a long time, it's better to be a bitch, why bother.Tian Feng blushed and said reluctantly, "Okay, sir, please tell me your thoughts." I finally felt a little sympathetic to my father when I saw his attitude of resigning himself to death.However, although Tian Feng committed a crime because of his rigidity, his loyalty is directly proportional to his straightforwardness, which is not bad at all.So I patiently explained; "That's right, two gentlemen, Yuan Xi considered that these Wuhuan soldiers' horsemanship and archery skills, as well as their individual combat effectiveness, are far superior to those of the Central Plains soldiers. Having such a team can greatly strengthen our army. The strength of the army. Mr. Tian said just now that people who are not of our race must have different hearts, and the reasons for the corruption of Wuhuan soldiers' military discipline. I have also considered it, and I think it can be resolved—"

"How to solve it? These people are bloodthirsty and can't be changed at all." Tian Feng refused.I laughed and said, "They are human beings and not wolves. How could they love to kill by nature? It's just the law of the grassland where the weak eat the fittest, which makes them cruel. As for the looting of supplies and the corruption of military discipline, there is a problem of eating. Wu The Huan people don't have salaries and food to distribute to the soldiers. If they want money, they have to grab it by themselves. This has created their bad habit of burning, killing and looting. As long as we strictly enforce military discipline and pay salaries on time, let them have enough food and clothing. Warm. After a while, I can’t be driven away.” I thought to myself, it seems that the Duoyan Sanwei in the Ming Dynasty used Mongols to fight Mongols. People don't care about food.So I have the confidence to recruit and turn these more than 1 Wuhuan cavalry into a three-good army with strong combat effectiveness, strict military discipline, and loyalty.

Although Tian Feng is stubborn, he is very reasonable. As long as you are right, he will immediately admit his mistakes and make no secret of his mistakes.Tian Feng's face softened slightly, and he pondered: "Young Master's words are not unreasonable, but these people must find a general with strict military discipline, and they must be organized into different teams, divide and rule, so that they can Use it." I don't know, these people are time bombs, if you use them well, you will be lucky, if you don't use them well, you will become a big tail, and you will be unlucky.He nodded and said: "Put them into Wen Chou's Black Dragon Cavalry, and Wen Chou will personally command them." Wen Chou's military discipline has always been very strict, and he is well-known in the Hebei Army, Tian Feng nodded slowly.It seems that I am not very relieved.

The sky is full of stars, and the sky on the prairie is very high and bright. Jia Xu took a breath, and suddenly pointed at Daying behind him with a smile, "Young Master, look."

In the camp, the soldiers who had finished all the aftermath were celebrating their victory.Behind the bonfire, soldiers wielded knives and guns, sang and danced with their arms raised, and the aroma of barbecue permeated the entire camp, full of an atmosphere of victory.Zhou Cang held a leg of lamb he found in the Wuhuan Camp in his hand and roasted it on the fire. He stood up and waved to the three of us; Half of it." Zhu Ling, Yuan Yin, Guan Cheng, Zhao Du, Tian Chou, Liaodong soldiers Su Shu, Hu Che'er, Zhang Xiu, Wen Chou and other generals sat around drinking.I suddenly thought of someone and shouted, "Where's Chang Xi?" Zhou Cang was taken aback, knocked on his forehead and said, "This kid was injured and didn't come out, so I forgot about him. Young master, help me barbecue, I'll go find him." Him." I waved my hand and said, "Forget it, you'd better come by yourself, I'll go find him."

Chang Xi's left arm was seriously injured. In the words of his previous life, the ligament was severed.Fighting hard all day today, I forgot about him.When I entered, Chang Xi was lying on the bed with his head turned to the inside.The sound of footsteps woke him up.Chang Xi turned his head unfriendly, wanting to get angry.Seeing that it was me, his expression immediately softened.

"My lord, you're here." He sat up after saying that.Chang Xi's face was sallow and ugly.His lips were pale, and his eyebrows were twisted together, looking painful.I asked with concern: "Lao Chang, what's the matter with you? Is there something wrong with your wound?" Chang Xi's face changed, and he sighed a long time; "To tell you the truth, the military doctor told me today, saying My left arm may be useless, I'm afraid Chang Xi will never be able to charge into battle with the young master again." He was very depressed, his eyes were slightly red.I didn't know that Chang Xi's injury was so serious, so I said immediately, "My arm is useless? Who said that, come and show me." Chang Xi knew that I was a doctor, so he immediately leaned over.I unwrapped his bandage and saw that there was a tear in the ligament. If Mafeisan hadn't been invented, it would have been hopeless, but can surgery be used now?Just a few stitches under anesthesia.I laughed and said, "Don't be depressed, it's not a problem, I can cure you, don't worry, I'll keep you braver than before." Chang Xi's lips trembled and his eyes straightened, as if he didn't believe it.I smiled and said, "I'll dispense some medicine in a moment, and then I'll help you—this, take care of it, and see you soon." Chang Xi waited for more, and I went out.Go back to your handsome tent, torment a pair of Mafeisan, and then prepare some 'anti-inflammatory medicine' - salt water.Find a needle and come back.I have only seen stitches on TV before, but I didn't expect to do it myself today.horror horror.Fortunately, Chang Xi was a tough guy, and with Mafeisan anesthesia, he didn't feel any pain at all.The operation went fairly smoothly, but the stitches were crooked and not neat, which has no effect on health. Let's just pass it, it's better than having your arm useless.After the sewing was finished, I patted my chest and assured Chang Xi; "It will be basically recovered within seven days at most, don't worry." Chang Xi almost fainted from excitement, and at the same time secretly hated those quack doctors in the past.I swear in my heart that I will be with the second son in this life, and I have no second thoughts.

The army crossed the Ling River the next day and set up camp. After three days of recuperation, Guo Jia's health was almost recuperated, and he couldn't wait to come to me to discuss marching into Liucheng.I feel that the soldiers have regained their spirits these days, and the captured fifteen thousand Wuhuan soldiers also surrendered voluntarily and accepted the recruitment.I agreed.However, these Wuhuan soldiers did not have weapons until they gained trust.Tian Chou once again acted as a guide.A hundred miles forward from Linghe is Bailang Mountain.From a distance, this mountain looks like a wolf crouching and trying to run away, hence the name.I thought to myself, this is where Cao Cao defeated Wuhuan in one fell swoop. Unexpectedly, I was beaten to death before I reached White Wolf Mountain.White Wolf Mountain was actually undefended, and Tadun was obviously short of troops. According to the surrender, there were only less than 5000 old and weak soldiers left in Liucheng City, plus the [-] or so soldiers that Tadun took away, plus his In the past few days, the strength assembled by the Latin strongmen is no more than [-] at most. The combat power is very limited, and they are not good at defending the city. It is estimated that they can win in one battle.Walking out of White Wolf Mountain, a hundred miles away, Liucheng is in sight.

The strange thing is that our army was approaching the city, but not a single soldier was released from the city.When the army reached three miles outside the city, they had a panoramic view of everything at the top of the city, and found that there was not even a defender.This kid, what kind of tricks are you playing with me? Is it an empty plan?The gate of the city is closed, and there is no plan for the city, so what's going on?Liucheng is located in the extreme north, and the city is not big, but it is twenty miles wide.There are fields on all sides, surrounded by willow branches and shaded by trees.The surrounding land is fertile, with crops such as wheat and hemp, and more abundant fruits, such as peaches, plums, dates, and melons and gourds.The grapes are the most numerous, small, sweet, and seedless, called Suozi grapes.Livestock include cattle, sheep, horses and camels.Camels the most.moderate climate,.The natives are simple, the men are sturdy, the women are rustic, and there are also particularly beautiful orchids passing by.Its pronunciation is also Xianbei.From here, the main road goes eastward, more than 1000 miles away from the city of Hami in the Western Regions.

Wen Chou and Zhang Xiu held their guns at my side respectively. Both of them were as confused as I was, and they turned their heads to look at Guo Jia and Jia Xu Tianfeng blankly.The three of them are not gods either, so they knew the tricks played by Ta Dun, and they also looked dazed.

Zhang Xiu said: "Since no one is guarding, let's rush in. If you don't pick up the cheap ones, don't pick them up." Wen Chou sneered, "It's just strange. Although this city is small, it is also the Wuhuan Royal Court. Why is there no one guarding it?" , Could it be that Tadun ran away when he heard the soldiers arrived." I shook my head and said, "No, if Tadun escaped, the residents outside the city would have followed suit a long time ago.

Guo Jia said: "Soldiers stationed under a strong city, the most taboo is hesitation, it is better to attack the city first." Sure enough, it was Guo Jia who liked to take risks the most.

Zhang Xiu was delighted, these words were most to his liking.Zhang Xiu clasped his fists and saluted; "My lord, give me 5000 people, and I will eventually go to attack the city." I thought for a while, but there was no other way, so I said carelessly: "Don't attack the city, just go and try to attack the city gate." Zhang Xiu After thinking about it, it's the same, if no one comes out, why are they still climbing the wall, and kicking the door directly, isn't it over? Seeing that this gate is far worse than the city gate in the Central Plains, hundreds of people go up and smash it randomly, and they are allowed to open .

Zhang Xiu took five thousand soldiers for a walk, and strolled to the city. He kept his gun on guard, fearing that cold arrows would be shot down.No, nothing.Very quiet.When they got to the city gate, Zhang Xiu simply went to knock on the door; "Is anyone there, open the door, open the door, your Master Zhang is here." Is this a war?

The soldiers around him were holding their spears and laughing.Before the laughter stopped, the door really opened.Zhang Xiu was startled, and immediately withdrew on his horse.More than a dozen soldiers rushed out of the city, surrounded by Lou Ban and Nengchen.When Zhang Xiu saw those people, he was not afraid at once, and while ordering his soldiers to enter the city, he dismounted quickly and put the knife on Lou Ban's neck.Shouting behind him hoarsely, "Young Master, Young Master, I have captured Lou Ban." These words almost stunned the three, four, five troops.Everyone said in their hearts, you are quite shameless, you caught it, and it was obvious that they came out by themselves.

Zhang Xiu pressed Lou Ban and walked to my horse, wiped off his sweat, panted, and said, "Master—Master, this kid has been captured by me, you can figure it out." Like the power of the tiger, he rolled my eyes in anger.

Just to be on the safe side, I signaled to Wen Chou to let the left-wing army enter the city and occupy the city first.Lou Ban came to ask for surrender, holding a red lacquer brocade box in his hand.I was about to ask a question.Jia Xu raised his horse from behind and said, "The prince is holding a depraved head." Zhang Xiu retracted the knife.Lou Ban also knew Chinese, so he immediately knelt down in front of the horse, "It's Brother Shedun." His voice was calm, without any panic.No matter how stupid I was, I could understand what happened, and said in a trembling voice, "You—you killed him." Lou Ban opened the box, revealing his stunned head, and said, "I killed him. I specially dedicated it to the general, so that the general would let him go." There are thousands of living beings in Liucheng." I let out a breath and looked at Jia Xu.Jia Xu motioned for me to go down and help.I thought to myself that things have come to this point, and I just picked up a bargain.Then he got off his horse and helped him up and said, "Prince——no, please get up, Shan Yu. Let's go to the city to talk." Nengchen Dazhi also stood up, holding a box in his hand.I coughed dryly and said, "This—this is—whose head is it." Nengchen Dazhi waved his hands and said, "This is not a head, this is—" He opened the box quickly; "It's Shanyu's seal Please accept it with a smile, to show our heart to surrender."
