Three Kingdoms

  Chapter 1135 please guess

   Seeing Xianbei lose his fighting spirit and flee northward frantically, Fei Qian finally let out a long breath. So far, no information has been received about the Xianbei activities in the Yanmen area, indicating that the Xianbei tribe in the Yanmen Yunzhong area has no offensive and defensive alliance with the Mobei Xianbei, nor does it mean to act in unison.

  There is nothing to worry about, as long as waves come, the refueling tactics have been proven time and time again, and the effect is not very good.

  In fact, if you think about it, you can understand it.

  Although the weather is cold in spring, the areas affected by the cold will always be stronger in the north than in the south. In the south, it will rain for at most two days in the cold spring, but in the north, there will be a heavy snowfall. The difference in geographical location has led to the difference in tolerance of the short-term climate between the Xianbei in Mobei and the Xianbei in Yanmen Yunzhong, which also led to Yanmen The nomadic barbarians in this area of ​​the cloud did not bear the oppression of nature like the Mobei Xianbei, and they were still within the acceptable range, so there was no need to raise their troops in the spring when they were about to let the livestock take a breather. go south.

Similarly, the southern Xiongnu in the Yinshan area, the cold air going south was blocked by the Yinshan Mountains, and did not have a very serious impact on the Yinshan area, so basically they entered the same spring farming season as the farming peoples. It's just that the spring plowing of the Han people is aimed at the land, while the spring plowing of the Hu people is more aimed at cattle and sheep.

Beating a dog in the water seems to be a very popular activity no matter in ancient times or in the Han Dynasty. Therefore, Yu Fuluo also has great interest and execution ability in chasing the defeated Xianbei. Xianbei's bare buttocks were exposed when he fled, and he immediately yelled for his subordinates to bring all the two thousand Huqi who came with him into the pursuit...

  As for Yu Fuluo himself, he stayed at Feiqian. On the one hand, it is because Yu Fuluo is now rebuilding the royal court in Yinshan, and he is more or less a serious Shanyu. With some identities, let the people below do the hard work; another reason is because of the colorful scepter placed in front of Fei Qian.

No one was interested in Hu Yehan's head. After taking a look at it, Fei Qian asked someone to give it to Yu Fuluo's troops. With such a head on the tip of a spear, it is estimated that it would not be able to defeat it. Shaomobei Xianbei's psychological defense line.

  As for taking the head to go to the central government, to go to Luoyang to ask for merit, it may have been useful before, but now, hehe...

After hearing that Liu Xie and Yang Biao had a falling out, although Yang Biao didn't say anything on the surface, his control over power became more stringent. It is only held on the first day of the new year.

   Once a month, no one is happy!

  So even if Fei Qian captures and sends these heads away, when the next court meeting is held, whether there will be credit evaluation or not, whether it can be submitted is still a problem.

  The most important thing is that Fei Qian is currently short of manpower, and even the messenger is not easy to find. After all, there are many rules of the gentry, and it is not something that a casual ordinary person can be in charge of...

  Do you know whether to stand on the left or the right when entering the door?

  Do you know whether to drink the soup first or chew the meat first when eating?

  Do you know whether to face down or face up when you greet His Majesty?

do you know…

   This is "Li".

   It’s really not something that can be done by just catching someone. If you don’t understand, you will be laughed at, and if you are serious, you will even think that you are deliberately insulting the other party. Then it’s not surprising that the other party cut off the messenger’s head to vent their anger.

   After all, an envoy represents the face of a family of princes.

Before Zaoyi was busy with the spring plowing and farming, he had some spare time in the summer and acted as an envoy once or twice, going to Chang'an and Jizhou, but this is not a serious thing, after all, Zaoyi is not well-known , it’s not very fun if there is one, and with the increasing harvest of Pingyang’s farming, Zaozhi’s ability in farming will arouse the covetousness of others sooner or later. When this little ice age is approaching, any farmer Those who have made achievements are the treasures of various princes, how can they be easily sent outside?

   What's more, Zaozhi can't leave, and neither can the others, so although it's a pity, it's the only way to go.

  However, what is the meaning of Yu Fuluo's constant staring at the colorful scepter?

   "Chan Yu, Shan Yu?" Fei Qian looked at Yu Fuluo, seeing that his saliva was about to stay, could it be that he wanted to take a bite?

  Yu Fuluo recovered from the state of trance, and said embarrassingly: "...Ah, General...Seeing this multicolored stick, this king can't help but think of some childhood things..."

   "Oh? Shan Yu likes this? Then give it to Shan Yu..." Fei Qian waved his hand indifferently, and asked someone to send the colorful scepter to Yu Fuluo.

  A piece of wood, dark, with some curvature, I don’t know if it is gloomy wood or ebony wood, or it was not this color originally, but it became this color after it became too much…

Then tie colorful silk threads and feathers as decorations. It looks pretty from a distance, but when you get close, you will find the dust and dirt hidden in the silk threads and feathers, which makes Fei Qian even touch it. All wishes are gone.

   "Give it to me?" Yu Fuluo couldn't believe it.

   Feiqian nodded, and habitually said modestly: "It's just a vulgar thing."

   "This is not a vulgar object!" Unexpectedly, Yu Fuluo said with some dissatisfaction, "This is the sacred object of the great shaman!"

   "Great shaman? A fetish?" Fei Qian blinked, "Has Shan Yu seen that head before?"

  Yu Fuluo was stunned for a moment, and then, like a rubber ball that had been deflated, he said softly: "I'm sorry, this king lost his composure..."

   "It's okay," Fei Qian said with a smile, "Come on, let's not talk, the next thing is to drink celebration wine for the sons and daughters. If Shan Yu has time, let's have a drink together..."

   Glancing at Yu Fuluo's unnatural expression staring at the colorful scepter, Fei Qian secretly smiled inwardly. This is the purpose of letting Yu Fuluo come here. In addition to the fact that the Huns were more hardworking and more useful when they were chasing Xianbei's defeated army, another reason is that since they want to promote a new religion among the Southern Huns , how can it be achieved without trampling the old religious system under its feet?

Such a colorful stick can not only remind Yu Fuluo at all times that the myth of shaman has been shattered, but also to take a step back, even if Yu Fuluo uses the colorful stick to support another person to become a shaman, It is also useless, because the most important thing for a shaman is not the scepter, nor the colorful coat, but the inheritance of the shaman's knowledge and experience.

  A shaman without inheritance is more useless than a shaman without a colorful staff...

   "Beat the drums! Light the fire! Prepare the wine!" Fei Qian said loudly, waving his arms, "I want to pour the wine and divide the meat for the outstanding sons in person! Let's celebrate the victory together!"

  Hearing this, the surrounding soldiers cheered involuntarily, resounding throughout the Yin Mountain.

  Fei Qian looked towards the far south amidst the cheers of the soldiers, thinking in his heart that the Yinshan Mountain in the north is considered to be an end, but the situation in the south does not know how it is going...

  ……………

  Zhang Liao raised his hand, clenched it into a fist and waved it, and slowly reined in the horse. The flag bearers behind him waved the banner, and the marching cavalry line slowly stopped behind them.

  Zhang Chen mobilized his horse, rushed forward, and asked, "Captain, what are your orders?"

   "Go to the back of the forest to set up camp, and the scouts will be dispatched for eighty miles." Zhang Liao glanced in the direction of Tongguan, then looked back in the direction of Luoyang, and said, "Send in both directions!"

Zhang Chen looked up at the sky, hesitated for a moment, and replied: "Follow the order!" Although Zhang Chen felt that it was still early and there was no sign of a storm coming, but since Zhang Liao, the commander in chief, had spoken, So no matter whether he asked again or said other words, it was an invisible provocation, and it would not be fun to be counted as a crime of slowing down the army. Therefore, although there were still doubts, he still passed the order according to Zhang Liao's intention.

Hearing the order to set up camp, the cavalry dismounted one after another. Some led their horses to the creek behind the forest to drink their horses. Pull up the curtain, cut firewood and prepare to set up camp, each of them is responsible for his duties, and there is no chaos at all.

  Zhang Chen found Qu Chang, and then gave Zhang Liao the command to send scouts. Qu Chang took the command, and soon sent more than ten scouts to the east and west directions, and disappeared from sight on horseback.

   Seeing that everything was almost arranged, Zhang Chen returned to Zhang Liao to report.

   "Zi Chu, do you have some doubts?" Zhang Liao asked Zhang Chen to sit down.

   "Reporting to the captain, this...is a little doubtful..." Zhang Chen said, "Why don't we rush to Tongguan to break the siege of Tongguan?"

  Zhang Liao nodded and said, "It's not wrong for you to think that way, but I think the commander under Tongguan also thinks the same way..."

  Zhang Chen opened his eyes wide and said, "What? Captain, you mean we have been exposed? If that's the case, wouldn't it be..."

  Zhang Liao laughed: "Don't forget that this is Hongnong! The surrounding towns and villages don't dare to confront us head-on, but they can still report a letter secretly."

  Zhang Chen said incredulously: "How is this possible?! Didn't we pull out the beacon tower at the Shanjin Ferry?"

   "There is nothing wrong with the Beacon Tower being removed...but there is one thing..." Zhang Liao looked up at the sky and said, "...There is not much food in the Beacon Tower...Do you know what this means?"

   "What does it mean?" Zhang Chen repeated, and then said with some hesitation, "The captain means that the rations of the soldiers in these beacon towers are running out...and they need to be delivered?"

  Zhang Liao nodded, and said: "It must be so... Therefore, no matter if you transport grain from Shan County or from other regions, you will definitely find something abnormal at the Shanjin Ferry...It is inevitable..."

   "However, we have come all the way, and we haven't seen a beacon fire warning?" Zhang Chen looked around, and indeed did not see the black smoke of the beacon fire. The weather was clear, and once the black smoke from the beacon fire ignited, it could be seen clearly even hundreds of miles away.

Zhang Liao smiled and said, "It's normal that there is no beacon fire... According to my estimation, the beacon tower must be built in the direction of Luoyang, and we didn't go in the direction of Luoyang. How could there be any beacon fire? Having a beacon fire doesn't mean we It must be safe and sound...not to mention it took us some time..."

  A thousand soldiers is easy to say, but with the addition of war horses, it is different. The war horses needed more space, and sometimes they would move around when they were not used to being crowded, which made it even more difficult to cross the river. Even though Pang Tong tried his best to mobilize some fishing boats of all sizes to ferry them together, it still took some time. Of course, it should be faster when we go back, because Pang Tong stayed in Shanjin and is repairing the pontoon bridge with only a few iron cables left. No matter what, as long as a passage with a width of one horse can be laid, it will definitely be faster than going back and forth. The ferry is much more convenient.

   "I was thinking, if the people in Tongguan know about our arrival," Zhang Liao said with a smile, "what do you think they will do?"

  Zhang Chen pondered for a while, and said: "Find a place to ambush us, kill or defeat us, take our flag head to Tongguan, and hit the morale of Captain Ma's soldiers by the way..."

  Zhang Liao nodded, and said, "That's right! Even if there is no ambush, just fighting from the front, we still have the upper hand... And we are not many in number, if we fight recklessly, we won't get much benefit..."

  Zhang Chen was silent for a while, sighed, and muttered: "It would be great if we rode with a suit, and rushing into battle is not a problem at all!"

Zhang Liao laughed loudly, and then said: "A thousand armored cavalry must be matched with at least two thousand light cavalry. If there is such a force, even if there are more than ten thousand infantry, it is impossible to stop it! But that is not a certain skill." , I will use this thousand cavalry to let the Yang family know that as long as Zhang is around, they will always be in fear, and there will never be peace!"

"Avoiding the truth, attacking the emptiness, coming and going like the wind, and finding the vital point is the skill of the cavalry!" Zhang Liao said, then turned his head to look in the direction of Luoyang, and said, "Since we guess that the opponent may be on guard, and we I don’t know where the other party is ambushing, so I might as well not go to Tongguan for the time being...Anyway, it is Captain Ma who guards Tongguan, and he is leading elite soldiers, the Yang family will not be able to conquer it in three or two days..."

   "Aren't we going to Tongguan?" Zhang Chen asked with some doubts, "Then where are we going?"

"Let's turn around and return to Shan County!" Zhang Liao smiled, looked up at the sky again, and said, "Well, it's not bad, the weather looks really good... Ha, let's pass the order down, bury the pot for cooking earlier, and rest earlier , set off at dawn!"

   "Wei! Ah, ah? Shall we go back to Shan County?" Zhang Chen widened his eyes and couldn't help but said, "Lieutenant, Tongguan is just around the corner..."

  Zhang Liao nodded and said, "That's right, go back to Shan County... Ha, we are going to attack Luoyang!"
