"Why?! Why are you doing this!!!" When it came to the pain point, Qianzhao even pointed at the two Yuan brothers and scolded: "Yuan Xi! Yuan Shang! You let the Huns into the customs regardless of the safety of the people. I will remember you severely, you are recruiting the Yuan family, and you are destined to be infamous forever!"

"Bold!"

"presumptuous!"

One of Yuan Shang and Yuan Xi's face turned red, and the other's face was ashen. This man insulted them both in front of so many people. Does he still have Wang Fa in his eyes?Is there a master?

"Fork it out for me, lock it!" Yuan Xi slapped the armrest of the seat with a "slap" and shouted angrily.

"Yuan Xi! You killed me! Kill me now if you have the ability!" Qian Zhao had already given up all his strength. If he didn't fight today, he would be tormented by his own conscience day and night in the future.

Yuan Xi sneered, and said, "You want to die? Hmph! That general will fulfill you!"

"Come on, drag me out and chop it up!"

Hearing that Yuan Xi was really going to cut off his move, several generals ran out and knelt on one knee and begged for mercy: "My lord! You can't, my lord!"

"General Qian is the mainstay against the Wuhuan people. Without him, even if we defeat Cao Cao, what will we have to fight against the Wuhuan people?"

"That's right, my lord, it's a bad omen to cut a general before the battle, and you can't kill a general who is recruited! Besides, we don't have many generals who are good at leading troops..."

Hearing this, the anger in Yuan Xi's heart was half extinguished immediately, there was no way, the family background was weak!

But he himself has already stood tall now, so he can't just jump down like this... If he really jumped, what is his prestige, and how can he lead the team in the future?

Fortunately, Yuan Shang is always more considerate.

"Ahem..." He coughed twice, and persuaded Yuan Xi, "Second Brother, General Qian was just angry and outspoken...Don't bother with him."

The ladder had already been set up, and Yuan Xi just went down the ladder, "Hmph! Since the general interceded for you, I will spare your life today! But death is inevitable, and life is inevitable! Come, drag me down!" , take heavy responsibility for the Eighty Army Sticks!"

"Hahaha! Yuan Xi, beat me to death if you have the ability! Hit... woo woo woo..."

Qianzhao was dragged out by the guards who came in from outside the door. On the way of being dragged out, I heard that Qianzhao was still fighting Yuan Xi.

One of the guards couldn't help but put out his hand to cover his mouth after listening to Zhaozhao's words.

It's not that the guard sounds uncomfortable, but that he is protecting Zhao Zhao in a disguised form, so as not to provoke Yuan Xi to lose his head again with his unscrupulous words.

If the eighty cudgels are really strong, even if the pull is not dead, the lower body is probably paralyzed.

Fortunately, Qianzhao has a high prestige in the army, and the sergeant who executed the execution respected him very much.

The army stick seemed to be raised high and swung down heavily, but when it landed on the buttocks of Qianzhao, less than two of the ten layers of strength were used.

After the [-]th army stick, Qianzhao seemed to be beaten to pieces and dripping with blood, but it didn't hurt the root.As long as he lies on the bed for a month and a half, he will be a good man again.

But after being beaten by the army stick, Qianzhao completely gave up on the Yuan brothers.

Lying on the bed, Qianzhao can have a lot of time to think about the future.

"I heard that Prime Minister Cao beat the Southern Huns to surrender... Maybe only by defecting to Prime Minister Cao can we truly keep the northern barbarians from the Han land..."

Qianzhao has already made up his mind, and when his injury is better, he will go south and join Cao Cao.

Chapter 361

Since the Wuhuan people entered the customs, they burned, killed and looted all the way, running through the entire eastern and central Youzhou.

Without the border guards, some county soldiers along the way would be no match for the Wuhuan people.Wherever the Wuhuan people went, they had no scruples at all. They killed people and robbed everything they saw. They almost destroyed half of Youzhou.

Almost all of them carried large and small bags of belongings, and behind them were groups of cattle, sheep and captives.

But they were not satisfied, they still laughed wildly, and continued to go further to the west of Youzhou.

Compared with the past, the Wuhuan people have gained a lot from this expedition and gained huge benefits... They are also yearning for a more prosperous Central Plains.

I heard that Cao Cao's army is already on the way north to Youzhou. As long as Cao Cao is killed, the Huahua World in the Central Plains will let the Wuhuan people have whatever they want!

Central Plains World, Huahua World!It's exciting to think about it!

......

Snowflakes of news spread to Lu Yan and Guo Jia from the shadow guards lurking in various parts of Youzhou.

After reading it, Lu Yan also had a gloomy face. After summarizing the news, he handed it to Cao Cao.

The people of Youzhou really had a hard time. In the early years when Gongsun Zan was here, although the Wuhuan people often harassed the border, they generally lived a stable life.

Later, after Yuan Shao colluded with the Wuhuan people to defeat Gongsun Zan, the harassment at the border became slightly stronger, but life was still passable.

But after Yuan Shao was completely suppressed by Cao Cao, this Youzhou really changed immediately.

The Wuhuan people only went south to break through Youzhou two years ago and plundered wantonly.

better this year,

He was let go by the Yuan brothers directly!

The people of Youzhou, who hang out with the Yuan brothers, will go hungry twice a day...

Don’t talk about being hungry, and your life will be threatened by the Wuhuan people at any time; let’s not talk about dying, if you are taken captive to the north, you will have to be slaves to these barbarians like pigs and dogs...

As the tragic experience of Youzhou spread throughout the world, it was the time when the top clan of the Yuan family, the fourth generation and the third prince, fell...Because of the behavior of the Yuan brothers to lure wolves into the house, the Yuan family will definitely be punished by all the common people and scholar-bureaucrats spit on!

After reading the information, Cao Cao squeezed the letter into a ball.

Cao Cao, who has always been extremely deep in the city and never changed his face when Mount Tai collapsed in front of him, will be really angry, "Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang of my Cao Nima! The affairs of the Han people should be resolved by themselves behind closed doors, and let these barbarians go Come in, you are asking for your own destruction, you are overdrawing the vitality of a big man! Damn it, really damn it, even a thousand cuts are not enough to quell my hatred!"

"Cao Nima???" Lu Yan looked at it in surprise, and thought, "Huh? Where did Lao Cao learn the national curse?"

Seeing Lu Yan staring at him, Cao Cao immediately realized that he seemed to be revealing himself, so he hurriedly remedied: "Brother Cao's mother, Yuan brothers, I, Cao Cao, will definitely send you to hell with my own hands!"

"Maybe it's just that old Cao learned without a teacher?" Seeing that Cao Cao was still cursing, Lu Yan was suspicious, but he didn't bother with these small problems anymore.

He said to Cao Cao: "The Wuhuan people have come this time with a total of 10,000+ people... We only have less than [-] cavalry, and this battle may be difficult."

Cao Cao raised his eyebrows and looked angry, "I, a Han Chinese, can equal five Hu people, a mere 10,000+ Wuhuan people, and I, Cao Cao, don't take it seriously!"

Uh... Lu Yan was a little speechless when he heard the words, and he suddenly said in his heart: "How powerful the Xiongnu were in the Western Han Dynasty, but they were still beaten by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and fled to the desert. But it still maintains its psychological advantage over the alien races in the north.”

Sometimes, confidence is an important factor in winning, but it should not lead to arrogance and underestimation of the enemy.

Thinking of this, Lu Yan said to Cao Cao: "Wuhuan has been doing business with the Yuan family all year round, and the people of Wuhuan today may not be what they used to be. Duke Cao must not underestimate the enemy."

Cao Cao couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw that he had finally fooled him.

After listening to Lu Yan's advice, Cao Cao nodded solemnly and said, "Mr. Lu reminded me that I will always be vigilant."

"That's good... the frontier is the border of Zhongshan Kingdom, we can rest for the night first, and then go all out to enter Youzhou tomorrow."

Cao Cao nodded and replied, "Okay! I will do as you said!"

......

Cao Cao's cavalry is still on the way,

At this time, Jiao Touch and Zhang Nan, who had already settled in Zhuo County, Fanyang County, Youzhou, were on the same level.

After demoting Cao Cao, both Jiao Touch and Zhang Nan were able to get promotions, and they lived happily ever after.

In March of the seventh year of Jian'an, they were appointed by Cao Cao as vanguards to attack Youzhou first.

At this moment, they have successfully seized Zhuo County, the seat of Fanyang County...but now that the Wuhuan people have killed them, their current situation is even more embarrassing.

After grabbing enough and eating enough, the Wuhuan people finally remembered the business.

When Cao Cao's army had just arrived at the border of Zhongshan, they had already marched west and south to Fanyang County.

Jiao Touch and Zhang Nan captured a county in Youzhou, and they hadn't waited to praise Shuang for two days, but now they were about to be harassed by Wuhuan's cavalry, and they felt like beeping a dog.

The Wuhuan cavalry, or the nomads in the north, they would not attack cities one by one like the Central Plains army.

Relying on the speed of their horses, they will come and go like the wind, and they will look around for towns to loot and sweep.When your pursuers arrive, if there are too many people, they will run away, and if there are few people, they will pounce on you and bite off a piece of your flesh, which is really disgusting.

For these nomadic wolves who fight to support war, Jiao Chu and Zhang Nan will definitely suffer if they take the initiative to attack.

But if they defended the city, when the Wuhuan people wiped out the surrounding area, the army and people in the city would be nothing more than trapped animals, and they would only die slowly.

And right now it's spring, and it's time to prepare for spring plowing.These Wuhuan people robbed all the cattle and sheep, and also robbed the food. There is no new farming, so how will the people live this year?

It was difficult for the two prime ministers to make a choice, so Jiao Touch had no choice but to lead his troops out to resist a few times.

But obviously, they are no match for the Wuhuan cavalry in the wild, and they are always bitten by the Wuhuan from time to time, and suffer a dull loss.

Today, Jiao Touch went back to Zhuo County in disgrace and embarrassment.

Seeing this, Zhang Nan said worriedly: "It's not an option to go on like this! I don't know where the prime minister's reinforcements are."

"tui!" Jiao Touch spit out bloodshot saliva, and said bitterly: "Fortunately, I voted for Prime Minister Cao. Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang, who are so stupid, opened the door to let those wolf cubs into Youzhou. I used to work for Yuan Shi , Now that I think about it, I feel sorry for my ancestors!"

After Jiao Trigger finished venting, he finally opened his mouth to answer Zhang Nan's question, saying: "The news of the [-]-mile rush has been sent out several times. I believe Prime Minister Cao's reinforcements are coming soon."

Zhang Nan shook his head and sighed, "Oh... I hope so..."

Chapter 362 Wuhuan Siege

The history of China is actually a history of blood and tears of mutual conquest and integration with foreign races.

Looking at the relationship between countless dynasties and foreign races, when the Central Plains dynasty was weak, the nomads rushed up to take a bite; when the Central Plains dynasty was strong, they fled to the grasslands to the depths of the desert when they were hurt.

Nomads can live in tents and migrate along the grasslands for grazing, without many fixed residences and assets.

However, the Central Plains dynasty was mainly a farming civilization, and land and houses were inherent assets that could not be moved away, so they seemed very passive in the face of nomads.

The nomads could rob the property of the Central Plains dynasty, but even if the Central Plains dynasty defeated the nomads, they could only get a small amount of cattle and sheep at most, because the nomads would flee to the grasslands and deep deserts when they felt that the battle was at a disadvantage.In the vast prairie and desert, they disappeared without a trace as soon as they rushed in... If they chased after them, they might not be able to find their traces even if they exhausted themselves.

What's even more exasperating is that even if a nomad is wiped out, a new grassland overlord will rise after a while.

The Han and Tang Dynasties fought against the Huns and the Turks for tens of hundreds of years. In the end, the Huns split and lost, and the Eastern Turks perished. The Western Turks and other nomadic peoples respected Li Shimin as the Khan of Heaven.But after the Turks came the Uyghurs, not to mention the Mongols who attacked the European continent later.The general prairie people are like weeds, the wild fires are endless, and the spring breeze blows and regenerates, and once the stubble is cut off, another stubble will emerge.

Another most important reason is that even if the territory of the nomads is conquered, the Han people will not be able to occupy it for a long time.

Most of the nomadic areas are grasslands and deserts, and the grasslands cannot be cultivated.Let's move the population, the cost is too high... The Central Plains Dynasty once tried to export population to the Western Regions, but in the end it was not particularly successful.

So sometimes it's not that the Central Plains dynasty can't beat the nomads, but that they can't arouse their interest in fighting them at all.

After the Yellow Turban Rebellion broke out in the Eastern Han Dynasty, it fell into a long-term melee among the princes, and the vitality of the Han Dynasty was quickly consumed.

Naturally, the grassland people did not want to let go of this opportunity to strengthen themselves, so whether it was the Wuhuan people, the Xianbei people, or even the Huns who surrendered to the Han Dynasty, they were also looking for opportunities to get rid of the control of the Han court.

In just over ten years now, the Wuhuan people have become so tyrannical that they can afford 10,000+ cavalry.If they are allowed to continue to develop, maybe one day they can really replace the original Xiongnu and Xianbei and become the new generation of overlords on the grassland.

The powerful Wuhuan cavalry led by Ta Dun could not be dealt with by the current Jiao Chu and Zhang Nan. Their only hope was Cao Cao who came from Yanzhou to support them.

But ten days had passed since the Wuhuan people entered the pass, and there was still no news of Cao Cao's army, which inevitably made Jiao Touch and Zhang Nan very anxious.

Zhang Nan walked back and forth in the hall, anxious in his heart; Jiao Touch sat on the side, drinking glasses of wine, frowning.

But at this moment, there was a sudden sound of drums outside the city, and then a messenger rushed to report, saying that there was a Wuhuan cavalry fighting under the city.

"Crack!" Ben was upset and his forehead was scorched, and he threw the cup in his hand on the ground, and the cup was instantly torn apart, and the wreckage was scattered all over the ground.

Without saying a word, Jiao Chu got up and wanted to go out of the city to fight that Wuhuan man.But when he got up and was about to leave, Zhang Nan grabbed his arm.

Zhang Nanchao Jiao Touch shook his head, and said: "They came to the city to yell and fight to provoke our army to go out to fight him. The barbarians don't know how to attack the city, why do you care about them?"

"But I can't stand this bird air!"

"How can you become a famous general if you can't stand it? Just bear with it, the prime minister's army will arrive soon."

"Hey! The devil wants to be a famous general, so I just want to kill myself!"

Although Jiao Touch said so, he listened to Zhang Nan's persuasion, sat down again, picked up the wine jar and sipped the wine.

If you can't fight, it's better to be drunk, so you don't have to listen to those obscene words to pollute your ears...

But what Zhang Nan and Jiao Touch didn't know was that Cao Cao's cavalry vanguard had actually arrived outside Zhuo County.

At this time, as Cao Cao's unstoppable vanguard general in his expedition, the dragon cavalry battalion led by Zhao Yun had been hiding outside the city for a long time.

Zhao Yun was looking through the binoculars at the Wuhuan people outside the city at the moment, and Xia Houlan beside him asked in a low voice, "How are they? How many people are there?"

After inspecting the Wuhuan army back and forth, Zhao Yun said with a solemn face: "It is estimated that there are about 5 people. And there is a big wolf-headed flag in the middle. It should be an army of a large tribe."

"Then should we wait for the follow-up team? After all, our dragon riding battalion is full, even if it is full, there are only 1 people."

"The Wuhuan people are not good at attacking the city. They just want to provoke the defenders and lead them to fight. As long as the defenders don't come out, the county town should still be safe." Zhao Yun analyzed the Wuhuan people's thoughts, and finally decided: "If they continue If there is a stalemate, then we will wait for the follow-up team; if they dare to attack the city, let them taste the power of our Central Plains cavalry!"

"Hi! I'm the best at stabbing people around the waist!" Xia Houlan grinned, and then said: "I'll arrange for everyone to take turns to take turns to rest. If there is a war later, our spirits will be better."

Zhao Yun agreed: "Very well, you can arrange it!"

Xia Houlan nodded, and then walked towards the hiding place of the team.
