Chapter 427(1/2)

Concealing the news of the Eastern Conference's victory was not something Zhang Buyi decided to do with a slap on the forehead.

It's a carefully considered decision.

First of all, I didn’t think too much about the battle plan in my plan for this expedition.

Most of the time, it was mainly about harvesting the Huns' logistics and destroying their living environment.

Therefore, since Zhang Buyi had this idea, the soldiers who followed him on the expedition this time would not be able to have any great military exploits.

At this time, what is the use of telling them that Guan Ying and Han Xin won the battle in the east and how many enemies they killed?

In the end, instead of improving your own morale, it will have the opposite effect.

In a country, Zhang Buyi himself is not the kind of general who leads troops in battle, and his appearance this time is a bitter trick.

So there is no need for him to fight any earth-shattering battles.

If the Huns hadn't run fast enough and Guan Ying and Han Xin couldn't catch up, Zhang Buyi wouldn't have even planned to lead his troops out.

Isn’t it nice to lie down and win?

I always cause trouble for myself when I have nothing to do, so how much free time do I have?

So, at Zhang Buyi’s urging.

The soldiers didn't even have time to count the trophies in detail, so they could only hurriedly return to the Great Wall pass with these trophies.

No one knows how many there are except that they only know that the amount of loot is so exciting that it makes people unable to sleep.

And the speed when I went back was faster than when I came here.

There is no other reason than that we have enough war horses.

Zhang Buyi even sent people to send 80,000 war horses to Zhang Ao, which directly resulted in Zhang Ao's army now being able to have five horses per man. Although they had to hand it in when they returned, for escaping,

Now they are the fastest in the world.

Zhang Buyi also has five horses per person, but even so, there are still many extra horses.

The women of the Huns had one horse each, and the adults were holding their children and riding their war horses.

The cattle and sheep were constantly on the road, and the Han army did not need to graze, so they did not need to worry about whether these cattle and sheep would be injured, die, or even lose weight on the way.

For Zhang Buyi, these are just clouds.

It’s not like there aren’t pastures within the Great Wall. At worst, we can just graze them to let them gain weight after we go back.

As for the dead ones, that’s even better. How delicious is it to just peel them open and eat them?

Seven days later...

The Han army, who had been rushing along the way, finally returned to the pass of the Great Wall.

The moment he saw the Great Wall, the tense stone in Zhang Buyi's heart finally let go.

He was not nervous about how many trophies he had obtained on the battlefield, nor was he excited at all.

And now that he can finally bring these things back, it's no problem, it's time to get excited.

Eight days later, the scouts from the rear came to report that a large number of Huns came towards the pass to kill.

"Haha, the reaction of these people is really slow!" Zhang Buyi said coldly and mockingly.

"General, do you want to go out and fight them?" Chai Wu asked, although he knew why Zhang Buyi did what he did, but since all the military exploits have come to him, he shouldn't give them up in vain.

"Fight? What to fight? Don't just think about fighting all day long, you will fight when it's time to fight!" Zhang Buyi knocked on Chai Wu's helmet, making a bang sound.

Although Chai Wu was almost twenty years older than him, Zhang Buyi didn't feel like facing his elders at all. Who made him a superior?

"Hurry up and tally the results of the battle and send them back to Luoyang as soon as possible. Although there are no heads among our brothers in this battle, with so many horses and livestock, Your Majesty's reward will not be small!" Zhang Buyi continued to urge.

Seeing this, everyone had no choice but to send people to count the loot.

They probably have a certain number of war horses, and it's actually quite easy to count them.

Zhang Ao was given 80,000 horses, five for each of the 40,000 forbidden troops, excluding one of his own horses, which is 160,000 horses. In other words, 240,000 war horses have been guaranteed.

Then they brought back almost a hundred thousand women of all sizes, but the Xiongnu women and the Yuezhi women among them had to be clearly distinguished, after all, the Yuezhi women still had to be returned.

After all, they are friendly forces. This time Zhang Buyi has deceived them. That's almost it. You can't deceive people to death, right?

Therefore, these 100,000 women, including adults and children, are almost 100,000 horses.

In addition, there are about 20,000 to 30,000 war horses left.

In other words, in this battle, Zhang Buyi brought back as many as 360,000 to 70,000 horses alone.

Of course, war horses also suffer losses.

The real high-quality war horses are on the first two fronts.

Most of the horses that Zhang Buyi and the others brought back were mares, older horses, or war horses that had not really grown up, as well as some war horses that were kept as spare replacements.

There are only about 100,000 horses here that can actually be supplied as war horses to front-line troops.

But those mares are particularly precious. With these mares, it will be much easier for the man to breed war horses.

As for the Xiongnu seizing the border, what should we do with the prisoners?

It was just overthinking, the prisoners were all women, Zhang Buyi just let the city defense army watch and that was it.

They were originally asked to come for the autumn harvest, but the troops came back too quickly and the autumn harvest hadn't even started yet...



Outside the Great Wall, on the grassland.

Looking at the Great Wall in the distance, there are scenes of Han soldiers surging everywhere.

Modun Shanyu had blue veins popping up on his forehead, his hands were tightly clenched into fists, and his whole body was trembling uncontrollably.

Angry, furious, wanting to kill someone.

But seeing the Han army that had entered the Great Wall and prepared a defensive posture, Maodun Shanyu felt very depressed and helpless.

Although after receiving the news, he immediately broke away from the pursuit of the Yuezhi people and returned to the camp without stopping. However, after returning to the camp, he learned that the Han army had already left.

After a charge settled the battle that day, the Han army did not even spend the night in the camp, but returned directly with the women, cattle, sheep and horses.

It can't be done if you are angry, but there is no way.

What to do?

Order even Mango to catch up.

As a result, the main force of the Xiongnu only took three and a half days to reach the Great Wall, but it was still a step too late.

The Han army had all entered the Great Wall just half a day ahead of them.

There is actually no point in attacking again at this time.

The Huns were not good at attacking cities to begin with, and what's more, in this place, at this time, in such a situation.

Even if the Han army were to attack the Great Wall, there were not many options available.

Because there are no cities on the grassland, they are unfamiliar with sieges.

Otherwise, Luo Tan Ji Zhou would not have turned around and withdraw his troops directly under the Yuyang City. The purpose of Luo Tang Ji Zhou was to lure Wang Li out and lure the Han army to engage in field battles. However, Wang Li was as cunning as an old fox.

How could you be fooled?

The environment faced by Luo Tan Ji Zhou at that time was much better than the environment faced by Maodun Shanyu now.

At least outside Yuyang City, you can find wood that can be used to make siege equipment.

But now Maodun Chanyu can't find any wood to make instruments.

There were trees on the grassland, but they were few and very thin and could not support the weight of people. They could not even make a simple ladder.

Maodun Shanyu was going crazy now.

What is going on with this Han man?

Why can't I escape the pursuit of the Han people no matter where I run?

Isn’t there no Han army in Yunzhong County?

Why did so many people come out again?

Where are my scouts?

Where did Dute Niang die?

So many people were sent out, but no one escaped?

"Han troops on the Great Wall, if you are really men, come out and challenge us. Don't hide behind the Great Wall like a coward who can only hide in a woman's crotch!" Maodun Shanyu said crazily.

Outputting.

"If you want to hide, you're hiding under the crotches of you Huns women. If you were a man, you would have ordered an attack!" Zhang Buyi snorted coldly and replied directly to Maodun Shanyu below.

When it comes to swearing, even the ten Han generals combined are no match for Zhang Buyi.

After all, you have studied with Wang Buxuan for so long, and practiced with Sima Xin for so long. If you can't even scold a Huns, why are you still playing with your balls?
