With difficulty, Qiu Liju raised his hand and held Su Puyan's arm. He looked at Su Puyan with cloudy eyes, and said slowly.

"Yuan Shao is slow-minded but ineffective, gentle and indecisive, not a hero. In this battle, I am afraid that the sons of my tribe will all be defeated in Yanzhou..."

Su Puyan's face changed slightly, he calmed down and said in relief.

"Now Yuan Shao has assembled more than [-] troops in Wei County. Ju Yi, Gao Lan and other generals are all powerful generals in the world. Zhu Ling, Lu Zhao and others are all famous generals in Jizhou. We will not be defeated..."

"I know."

Qiu Liju looked away from Su Puyan's body, and looked at the beam above his head again.

"Whether we win or lose, no matter whether we win or lose, the [-] sons we sent out will never come back. These have nothing to do with winning or losing."

"Battle of Baoqiu, do you still remember?"

Su Puyan's face darkened, he naturally remembered the battle of Baoqiu.

In that battle, they joined forces with Yuan Shao's army to face Gongsun Zan together, but Yuan Shao handed over most of the pressure to them at that time.

In the end, although Gongsun Zan was successfully defeated, they also suffered heavy casualties, but Yuan Shaojun did not suffer many casualties.

When Liu Yu was in charge of Youzhou, he regarded them as ordinary Han people and did not despise them.

When Gongsun Zan was in charge of Youzhou, he treated them as slaves, coming and going as soon as he was called, reprimanding them at will, and oppressing each other with force.

Now that Yuan Shao is in charge of Youzhou, although he is not as bad as Gongsun Zan before, he doesn't pay much attention to them.

"Even if Yuan Shao is not the hero, he is our only choice now."

Su Puyan looked gloomy and said in a low voice.

"Gongsun Du has always been against us. Even if he agrees to the alliance, does brother think it is a good thing to depend on Gongsun Du?"

"There was a great war between the Xianbei and the East in the north, and the wars continued. The elder brother of the Xianbei people couldn't be more clear about their virtues."

Qiu Liju shook his head.

"Do you remember the battle of wet water?"

Su Puyan frowned slightly, not knowing why Qiu Liju suddenly brought up the battle of wet water.

In the Battle of Rushui, the Wuhuan tribe of Shanggu and the cavalry army of the Yellow Turban Army invaded the territory of the Wuhuan tribe of Youbeiping. Wuyan, the king of Khan and Lu, asked him to borrow troops at the beginning, but he did not borrow troops, but Qiu Liju borrowed part of them. The cavalry gave Wuyan.

The Battle of Rushui ended with the defeat of the Youbeiping tribe. Wuyan, king of Khan and Lu, was beheaded by Zhang Liao of the Yellow Turban Army.

"The power of Shanggubu has expanded to the Rushui area. Compared with a few years ago, Shanggubu is now more than twice as strong as before..."

Qiu Liju propped up his body, stared at Su Puyan, and said in a deep voice.

"In the Battle of Shuofang, Liangzhou was attacked, and Xianbei was attacked. The cavalry of the Yellow Turban Army was powerful and should not be underestimated. Monnan Mobei heard the flag of Taipingdao and fled. Seeing that the army of Taipingdao dispersed, Xianbei did not dare to go south and herd. Ma, the bandits dare not easily invade the border."

"perhaps……"

Qiu Liju held Su Puyan's hand tightly, he opened his cloudy eyes and let out a long sigh.

"We're really on the wrong track..."

Chapter 619 Three Counties Wuhuan

"You mean..."

Su Puyan's complexion changed slightly, and he heard Qiu Liju's overtones.

Qiu Liju nodded solemnly.

"Before Zhang Ju was defeated, the envoy of Taipingdao came to me secretly."

Qiu Liju's face was serious, and he said in a deep voice.

"I'm sure Taipingdao didn't have much influence in Youzhou at that time, and it was absolutely impossible for the Eagle Wolf Guard to receive too much news. I was in secret contact with Liu Yu at the time, but..."

Qiu Liju stared into Su Puyan's eyes.

"The emissary of the Taiping Dao came to me at that time. Between the words and sentences, it seemed that we knew that we would abandon Zhang Ju and Zhang Chun and go to Liu Yu."

Su Puyan's body trembled slightly, his eyes twitched.

He also remembered one thing, that Xu An seemed to have sent an envoy to greet Zhang Ju and Zhang Chun.

Later, when Zhang Ju and Zhang Chun were in the limelight, they sent envoys to bring the crown clothes, completely grasping Zhang Ju and Zhang Chun's thoughts.

At first, Su Puyan thought it was just a coincidence, or that Xu An heard the rumors, but combined with what Qiu Liju said, then all this began to be unimaginable.

They contacted Liu Yu secretly, and it was impossible to leak this matter, because the person responsible for delivering the news was his most trusted relative.

When looking for opportunities, they all went through a series of disguises, and when they met Liu Yu in the end, only a few people knew the content of the conversation, and all of them were Liu Yu's cronies and trusted people.

It is absolutely impossible for these people to be people on the path of peace.

Therefore, the original most unreasonable explanation has become the most reasonable explanation.

Maybe Xu An is really Huang Tian's incarnation in the world, just like the rumors say...

Otherwise, how to explain all kinds of abnormalities is just right.

In the seventh year of Guanghe, millions of Yellow Turbans were destroyed. I thought that the Yellow Turban Army was already on the verge of destruction.

But since the appearance of Xu An, Taiping Dao has turned from danger to safety, until now it crosses states and counties, dominates the northern border, and its power has reached its peak.

"Although the Taiping Road is now in full swing, occupying 25 counties in four states, but I don't think they are interested in Jizhou and Youzhou."

Su Puyan's tone softened, he was already a little shaken by what Qiu Liju said.

Since the appearance of Xu An, Taipingdao has been losing more than defeating. Because of the support of Taipingdao, Shanggu Wuhuan tribe is now much stronger than them.

Now that the three of them are working together, I am afraid that they are only a little stronger than the Shanggubu, and this advantage will disappear once the cavalry from Taipingdao joins.

"Do not."

Qiu Liju shook his head resolutely.

"Youzhou has probably already been included in Xu An's plan. Once the Central Plains War comes to an end, it may be the time for the Yellow Turban Army to send troops to Youzhou."

"You've seen the new harness of the Yellow Turban Army, right?"

Su Puyan's face was slightly condensed. The battle of the Yellow Turban Army's attack on Liangzhou consisted of three battles.

One is to rush thousands of miles to attack the Xianbei royal court in the west.

The second is the Battle of Gaopingchuan, against the Liangzhou coalition forces twice as large as themselves.

The third is the ambush in Jixian County, where Han Sui fell in ambush and defeated Weishui.

The marching speed and combat power of the Yellow Turban cavalry really caught the attention of all the heroes in the world.

One day and one night, he ran for 280 miles, and set up an ambush in advance, defeating Han Sui's elite cavalry.

When Han Sui returned to Pingxiang City, Xu An had already led an army to occupy Pingxiang, and Han Sui was decapitated and taught to lose the twelve counties of Liangzhou.

The new style of harness is now used by all tribes in Wuhuan.

However, because there are not many craftsmen and materials, most Wuhuan people's stirrups are made of cloth stirrups, Gaoqiao saddles are also extremely rare, and some horseshoes are also equipped.

They are all ethnic groups on the grasslands. Su Puyan knew how important these new harnesses are. It is no exaggeration to say that equipped with such new harnesses at least doubled the combat power of the cavalry.

"I originally thought that Liu Yu was the Man of Destiny, but it turns out that Liu Yu is not..."

Qiu Liju let out a long sigh.

"I don't know what the world will be like in the future, but besides Yuan Shao, we still have a second choice..."

Qiu Liju held Su Puyan's hand tightly.

"Although Shanggubu is quite far away from us, we are all Wuhuan people after all. We come from the same lineage. Nanlou's daughter is married to Xu An. What he said to Xu An should have weight."

"Xu An accepted the Shanggu tribe, the Xiongnu and Qiang people, and even some Xianbei people. Most likely, he would not refuse to accept us."

"With our help, whether Taiping Dao wants to seize Youzhou or govern Youzhou, it will be much easier, and Xu An has no reason to refuse."

Qiu Liju opened his cloudy eyes and looked at the beam.

"It's the first time I've seen the Han court so weak."

"I also felt the danger of the dead for the first time..."

"There is no room for the weak on the prairie. If you can't become a strong person, then you should be attached to the strong. This is what my father once told me."

"We used to be attached to the Han court, but now we are attached to Yuan Shao..."

Every time Qiu Liju said a word, he became weaker, and the blood on his face gradually began to dissipate.

"I see."

Su Puyan stood up, he noticed Qiu Liju's situation, he knew that he couldn't let Qiu Liju talk anymore, Qiu Liju's energy had reached the limit.

"I will send someone to contact Nanlou, so you can rest assured."

"I...maybe...can't last until the beginning of spring..."

Qiu Liju raised his hand with difficulty.

"Tap."

"Aon, I'm here."

Hearing Qiu Liju's shout, Tadun, who was kneeling beside him, immediately leaned forward and held Qiu Liju's hand.

"The Horde...is handed over to you..."

"Your brother is young, take good care of him..."

Looking at Tadun's resolute face, Qiu Liju seemed to see himself when he was young.

He took one last look at Lou Ban who was sitting behind Ta Dun, and instructed.

"I believe you will never let me down..."

……

In March of the third year of Chuping (192), spring blossoms and snow melts.

However, the white flags in Lingzhi City did not come down. Countless white flags and Wuhuan cavalry in white robes escorted Qiu Liju's coffin to his homeland in the north.

Qiu Liju's son Louban was young, so Qiu Liju's position was temporarily taken over by his nephew Tadun.

At the beginning of spring, Ta Dun ascended to the position of Shan Yu with the support of a group of tribal elders.

Yuan Shao sent an envoy to confer the title of Tadun.

Ta Dun obeyed the canonization, and thus officially began to control Wuhuan, the three counties of Youbeiping, Yuyang, and Liaoxi.

This is what my father once told me.

"Three Kingdoms": Tadun and valiant, the elders on the border are all compared to Maodun, relying on it to block and far, dare to be exiled, to be a hero.

6 Chapter twenty surefire strategy

In March of the third year of Chuping (192).

Jizhou, Weijun, Yecheng.

Around Yecheng, there were nearly [-] soldiers who rushed from all over the city.

And in Liyang, there are more than [-] soldiers guarding this crucial ferry.

With the Yellow River as the boundary line, the two sides face each other from north to south.

Yuan Shao stationed troops in Yecheng, Liyang, and Hemucheng.

There are a total of 11 soldiers, including more than 9 cavalry and [-] infantry.

Xian Yufu and Xian Yuyin each led more than [-] Tuqi from Wuhuan and swallowed them in the outskirts of Yecheng, while Han Meng led [-] Tuqi to swallow Liyang.

Yuan Shao ruled the military by trial and match, Tian Feng and Xin Ping were the masterminds, and Ju Yi and Gao Lan were the generals.

Apart from the ordinary soldiers of the county and state, Yuan Shao had three strong armies, and it was these three strong armies that won Yuan Shao one victory after another.

The first is a heavy infantry trained with the Xiyuan Forbidden Army as the backbone - "Wuwei Army"

The demons under Yuan Shao's command were not completely useless in Bingzhou. The heavy infantry that Yuan Shao is now training is very similar to the soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army, but their equipment is better than that of the soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army.

The soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army are now wearing iron armour, an iron breastplate, and a shield spear, but the lower body is not well protected.

However, Yuan Shao, who was rich and powerful and supported by powerful families in Jizhou, Youzhou, and Qingzhou, even had enough protection for his lower body, and some soldiers of the Wuwei Army could even wear a layer of leather armor.
