Straight man of steel

Chapter 473 The situation before the war
After almost finalizing the matter, Zhang Yuan called Zhao Xin and Gongsun Rongnu to him.

"Xihou, you take Cong Pinghou to King Hunxie again.

Tell him that it's time to start an incident a week later, and ask him to send someone to take Cong Pinghou to Hu Nu City.

After Pinghou you left, you stayed in Hunu City, and all the army in Hunu City obeyed your orders.

This is a handwritten letter from General Wei Qing. When the time comes, you, together with the Wuhuan people and King Hunxie's subordinates, will take down the [-] Hun army.

It's best to force them to surrender. If they surrender, they will be locked up in the Hu Slave City, leaving an army of [-] to guard and suppress them.

Leave Gao Bushi in Hunu City, and you and Zhao Buyu will lead the remaining [-] troops and rush to Yuyang City to support us!

If the Wuhuan people are cheating with King Hunxie's subordinates, after tricking you out of the city, they will try to exterminate you.

Find a way to break out and return to the city.

The [-] troops in Hu Nu City are all tribes, and their cavalry cannot charge you with their backs against the city.

Remember to preserve your own strength is the most important.

If the Xiongnu army did not surrender, then after killing them all, 1 people would be left to defend the city, and the rest would rush to Yuyang City. "

Zhang Yuan had a lot to say to Gongsun Rongnu, but that was all he said.

Gongsun Hecai is the best candidate to command the [-] army in Hunu City. After all, he is a chariot general. When Zhang Yuan and Wei Qing are not around, he can easily command the [-] army in Hunu City.

But there is no way now.

It would be too risky to let Gongsun He slip out of Yuyang City and send him to Hu Slave City.

If Zhang Yuan is the King of Hunxie, he will directly capture Gongsun He, and then go to Yi Zhixie to claim credit.

It was bullshit to say that the big man surrendered before, just to be able to catch one of Zhang Yuan, Weiqing and Gongsun He.

A person like Yi Zhixie who is so overjoyed must have been overjoyed.

Maybe it doesn't matter what King Hunxie did before.

Such a risk cannot be taken.

Now it is Zhang Yuan who has King Hunxie and Wuhuan Great Chanyu under control.

How could they possibly hold Zhang Yuan's hand?

If it wasn't for the fact that there was no such thing as trust between each other, Zhang Yuan would have asked King Hunxie to send Chu Da and the others out first.

Chu Da was able to send the news that King Hunxie and King Xiutu were going to Taidang City to support the military officials before, which was able to offset the bad impression he left in Liu Che's heart.

"General Hussars, the last general will definitely take down the [-] Huns' army!"

Gongsun Rongnu's time in the army was actually the same as that of Zhang Yuan and Wei Qing, and the three of them were all about the same age.

But Zhang Yuan has never paid much attention to him.

There was a reason to choose him. Gongsun Rongnu had met Zhang Yuan when they encircled and wiped out King Baiyang and King Loufan before, but Gongsun Rongnu had been by Wei Qing's side since then.

And that time his military exploits were not enough to qualify as a marquis, and he was always a school lieutenant in the end.

With only these few people in total, it is impossible for Xin Zhao to let him lead the army alone. No matter how great his contribution to the big man is, Zhang Yuan will not be able to overcome that hurdle.

But Zhao Puonu's prestige was too low, and Zhao Buyu and Zhao Buyu were already in Hunu City.

Gongsun Ao's temperament is too impulsive and domineering, and he is easy to get on top when fighting.

An irrational person cannot command an army alone.

However, Gongsun Ao belongs to the luckiest wave of generals in the Han Dynasty. He has been using experience to fight monsters and upgrade, and he is almost at the level of Wanhuhou.

Among the generals of the Han Dynasty, Wei Qing has the most fiefs, followed by Zhang Yuan, followed by Gongsun Ao with [-] fiefs.

Gongsun He was also a Marquis because of his father, Gongsun Hunxie, but later he was deprived of the title due to a crime, and then Gongsun He was re-appointed as a Marquis just to continue his father's fief, so Liu Che didn't give him more titles.

Then as soon as Gongsun Ao led the army alone, he would be finished immediately.

Otherwise, if he was lucky that time, he would have properly entered the rank of Wan Huhou.

Zhang Yuan traveled over here, and he has some impressions of how these people ended up later, which made him not use the wrong person every time he hired people.

"You guys go first. After the Marquis of Xi sends you off to the Marquis of Cong Ping, come back to the Wei's Mansion in Yaoyangdu. I still need you to lead the 15 cavalry to fight with the Marquis of Heqi."

"I will understand at the end!"

With the help of King Hunxie, Gongsun Rongnu from Pinghou successfully entered the Hunu City.

The defense of Hu Slave City is definitely not as strict as that of Yuyang City.

Moreover, 30 of the 20 troops outside the city seem to be in harmony with each other.

In addition, the [-] Huns army was the worst.

During this waiting time, Zhang Yuan also called back Gongsun Ao who was wandering outside.

Gongsun Ao had killed thousands of Wuhuan and Huns during this time.

Zhang Yuan was afraid that he would get angry if he killed the Wuhuan people.

But fortunately, Gongsun Ao also had a way of fighting guerrilla warfare, and he didn't leave anyone alive at all.

And he also listened to Zhang Yuan, and never did anything to those herdsmen or the Huns Wuhuan who escorted cattle, sheep and livestock.

Those he killed were soldiers of the Xiongnu and Wuhuan wandering outside.

It was about to enter April, and Zhang Yuan also confessed to the army in the city.

Said the time to attack.

It's just that they didn't talk about King Hunxie and Wuhuan Da Shanyu.

These 15 cavalry were suffocated in the small town of Yaoyang Duwei's Mansion, and they all came alive after knowing the news of the upcoming expedition.

As for the defeat, none of these soldiers thought about it.

How could it be possible to fail following Zhang Yuan?

The only person in the army who may be worried is Zhang Qian.

The generals basically knew about Zhang Yuan's plan, but he was the only one who was stupid enough to not know what Zhang Yuan's plan was.

The day the army left the city.

Zhang Qian rode on the horse and ran to Zhang Yuan's side and asked.

"General Hussars, let's rush over like this. Are the Huns all pigs waiting for us to slaughter them?"

Zhang Yuan looked at Zhang Qian and smiled.

"What, are you scared?

As I said, you can choose to stay in Yaoyang Duwei's Mansion. "

Zhang Qian felt in his heart that Zhang Yuan must be sure, otherwise he wouldn't be joking with the lives of 15 troops.

"Has General Hussars sent King Hunxie's army to our side?"

"uncertain."

Zhang Yuan told Zhang Qian the truth, he was really not sure.

"uncertain?"

"It's definitely not sure, can you give your life to a Hun?
You have to control your own destiny. We have 15 cavalry, of which [-] are elite.

Still afraid of the more than 50 aliens in Yuyang City? "

Zhang Qian was so frightened that his teeth began to chatter.

He didn't want to fall into the hands of the Huns.

He felt that Zhang Yuan was taking a risk, risking the lives of 15 cavalrymen.

"Since General Hussars said so, I have already expressed what I should say.

I will also have an explanation before His Majesty in the future. "

Zhang Qian murmured that he was giving himself a psychological comfort.

Zhang Yuan glanced at him, didn't say anything, just nodded towards Gongsun Ao and Zhao Xin.

Gongsun Ao roared and set off.

15 cavalry moved in response.

Zhang Yuan and the others had to arrive at Yuyang City before noon.

Then see how the Huns react.

If the Huns stood still, Zhang Yuan would let the army and horses rest first.

He did not want his exhausted army to face the full fighting power of the Xiongnu.

If Yi Zhixie wanted to send a large army to start attacking the Han army, then Zhang Yuan couldn't wait any longer.

He will choose to go to war directly with the more than 30 Huns.

It is possible for Wuhuan Da Chanyu and King Hunxie to rebel against the water, but it is impossible for them to contribute.

I can still vividly remember the story of my husband's sheep sentence and the mountain narrowness.

King Hunxie had already sold King Xiutu, and he did not use his army to help the Han army strangle King Xiutu's army.

These people have lived for a long time and know that the more bargaining chips they have, the greater their power will be in the future.

Every pawn is precious, and it is always better to watch others fight than to end up on your own.

When King Hunxie and Wuhuan Da Shanyu ordered the attack on Yuyang City in Yizhixie, they didn't exert any strength at all.

Shrewd to the extreme.

Moreover, it is basically impossible for Zhang Yuan to cover up the whereabouts of the 15 troops. Since this is the case, then there is no need to cover up.

Anyway, it is going to be exposed, so it will appear directly in front of the Huns.

Yi Zhixie couldn't be so timid that he immediately chose to run away when he saw the 15 cavalry of the big man.

Zhang Yuan wanted to get rid of part of the Xiongnu army under Yuyang City first, so that something went wrong later, and Zhang Yuan was able to accept it.

An army of 15 marched from north to south.

Hundreds of miles were gone in no time.

When there were still ten miles away from the camp where the Huns were stationed, the Huns had already discovered Zhang Yuan's whereabouts.

Zhang Yuan sent Zhao Puonu and a hundred cavalry to clean up the Huns and Wuhuan's scouts in front, and the effect was very obvious.

Otherwise, the 15 troops would have been seen by the Huns when they first left Yangduwei's Mansion.

When Yi Zhixie learned that a Han Chinese cavalry force of at least 10 people had appeared ten miles to the north, although she wasn't very scared, she was also a little panicked.

The Han army appeared behind them, and they were all so close before they were discovered.

"Da Shanyu, it seems that nearly a thousand people under our command were killed before, and it should be caused by this cavalry."

A Hun said to Yi Zhixie.

"Since there are already signs, why did you say it until now!"

Yi Zhixie roared wildly.

He didn't think that he was incompetent, but that these scouts were fools and idiots.

This Hun and he also knew that he couldn't continue talking.

He is just a small officer, and he might die if he talks too much.

"Get King Hunxie and Wuhuan Da Shanyu quickly, I want to discuss countermeasures with them."

King Hunxie and Wuhuan Da Shanyu breathed a sigh of relief when they knew that the Han cavalry had arrived.

This proves that Zhang Yuan did not deceive them, at least he did not deceive them about the date of the war and the number of Han cavalry.

But the play must go on.

King Hunxie and Wuhuan Da Shanyu still went to Yizhixie's Da Shanyu's account.

After the two met, they both laughed at each other, and they both knew what everyone was thinking.

After entering the tent of the Great Shanyu, King Hunxie and Wuhuan Great Shanyu stopped laughing.

Changing a worried look, he walked in.

"Da Chanyu, are the Han cavalry really ten miles away?"

"King Hunxie, you are lying on the ground right now, and you can hear the sound of the hooves of a large number of cavalry rushing towards you!"

How far is ten miles.

Twenty miles away, 15 cavalry are rushing, and you can feel the vibration with your ears on the ground.

The reason why the Huns didn't find out was because they had more horses in their garrison.

The hundreds of thousands of horses on the Xiongnu's side also have to complain.

If the Huns were all infantry, it would be impossible for the 15 cavalry of the Han Dynasty to be discovered when there were only ten miles left.

"What shall we do now?"

When the critical moment came, Yi Zhixie couldn't make up his mind.

"The cavalry of the Han army is only more than 50. We have more than [-] cavalry. What are you afraid of?"

King Hunxie said nonchalantly.

"Haha, King Hunxie, did you forget that Zhang Yuan led more than 5 cavalry to defeat you and King Xiutu's 20 cavalry.

Now King Xiutu is still working as a dog among the Han people! "

Don't slap someone in the face when you hit someone, and don't scold someone when you swear.

Yi Zhixie obviously didn't understand this principle.

As a result, Wuhuan Da Shanyu listened.

Well, sure enough, last year King Xiutu and King Hunxie summoned 20 troops to attack me, Wuhuan.

"Da Shanyu is not much worse than me. Nearly 1 people under your command died, and you didn't even kill [-] people from the Han army. Are you embarrassed to say me now?"

"Stop arguing, both of you, shouldn't you think of a way to deal with the Han army now?"

Wuhuan Da Shanyu's expression changed, and he began to act as a peacemaker.

"I think the best way now is to send someone to transfer the 30 army from Hu Slave City.

I don't think the two of you are very harmonious, otherwise give me a token, and I will tell my subordinates to quickly go to Hu Slave City to bring 30 troops here. "

Yi Zhi was leaning on the fire, and didn't even notice the many loopholes in Wuhuan Da Shanyu's opinion.

He quarreled with King Hunxie and went to dispatch troops, so would it be fine for one side to send someone there?

What token?
However, King Hunxie was on the side of Wuhuan Da Shanyu.

Immediately, she took out a jade pendant from her bosom.

"Here, with this piece of jade, I can mobilize the [-] troops under my command."

Yi Zhixie didn't think much of it at all, and also found a scepter.

"This can represent my identity as Grand Chanyu, Wuhuan Grand Chanyu, don't let your subordinates lose it!"

"That's natural."

After Wuhuan Dayu got two tokens, he found his cronies.

But what he said was completely opposite to what he said to fool Yi Zhixie.

"With these two tokens, I went to Hunu City and told the [-] Hun army directly to force them to attack the city.

The Han army in the city will pretend to be invincible and lure the [-] Hun army into the city. At that time, you can leave it alone and leave the matter to the [-] army of King Hunxie and the [-] army of the Han people. "

King Hunxie believed in Wuhuan Da Shanyu so much, but in the end he was put on the line.

Everyone wants to preserve their own strength, but fortunately they have the right to speak at the last moment.

"Are we really going to attack the Huns?"

"The ambitions of the Huns have been exposed. We Wuhuan people can't work for the Huns, and then they were annexed by them."

"Don't worry, Da Shanyu, I will definitely let the Huns' [-] troops fall into a trap!"
