At this level, what the three leaders of the Southern Xiongnu could do was to try their best to restrain their headquarters. As for the soldiers who had already transferred to other tribes, they could no longer care about it.

When they marched south along the Yellow River in this way, before they entered the Sili Zuo Fengyi, the three men, Huchuquan, Zuo Xianwang Liu Bao, and Youxianwang Liu Qubei, had already lost more than 60,000 troops.

In other words, the soldiers of these three people ran away one-third. This loss made the three people crazy, but the three people now know that it is impossible to turn back. They can only hope to restrain their headquarters and not liquidate them on their heads when they turn back.

As for other matters, they were completely unable to stop them. The three people who could still restrain the Southern Xiongnu have completely lost their authority.

On the contrary, the power of the leaders of the Southern Xiongnu tribes is constantly increasing. Simply put, the more fiercely the robbery they are now, the greater the power they gain. On the contrary, those who are smart and still restrain their subordinates will either be killed directly by their subordinates, or their strength will be greatly reduced.

This is a pit. Li Ru probably knew such an inevitable ending. Most of the Hu people in this era could not be very good at restraining their own forces. Even the elite Taishan who led Chen Xi to conquer the Bohai Sea at the beginning could not be very good.

At that time, small-scale plundering occurred in the Bohai Sea, which shows the quality problems of the soldiers at that time. Fortunately, as Chen Xi continued to rectify military discipline and Cao Cao, Sun Ce and others continued to follow up, the military discipline of the entire Han army was significantly improved.

However, listening to the grumbles of Wei Yan, Sun Ce, Guan Ping and others who went north are enough to explain too many problems. Although these people agree with the military discipline stipulated by Chen Xi, they still have the previous barbaric military discipline thinking in their hearts, so they should not think about the military discipline of the Hu people.

Later, the major tribes of the Southern Xiongnu discovered that the north seemed to have been empty, and the major tribes of the Southern Xiongnu really began to get dizzy.

What is the problem of getting some food and grass from you all the way? If we do what we do according to the order, if we don’t agree, if we don’t agree, then you will die.

In the end, the entire north of Sili and the southern Huns were almost in chaos, and it was also a pity that those places were still in the Bingzhou direction. Although the main force of Bingzhou had left, Hu Zhao was still in the northern part of Bingzhou.

Unfortunately, although Hu Zhao's talent is not inferior to the world's first-class wise man, he lacks military strength and generals. Even if Lu Bu's remaining power remains in Bingzhou, he is short of soldiers and major generals, so he can barely defend the four counties of Wuyuan, Dingxiang, Yunzhong, and Yanmen, and has no more energy to rescue other counties.

As for Taiyuan County and Sili, Hanoi are entrenched by aristocratic families. Although they were not completely protected, they did not completely indulge the Southern Xiongnu.

Only Shuofang, Xihe and Shangjun had neither strong generals nor good ministers, nor were they dens of thousands of families. The Southern Xiongnu made these three places a mess.

Fortunately, when Li Jue, Guo Si, Fan Chou and the other two left Sili, they fought one after another in these three places according to Li Ru's request, which made the place where the Han and Qiang lived were completely in chaos.

Then Cao Mengde entered Yongliang and moved all the Han people there to Sili to ensure the population of Sili. Naturally, those positions were basically empty and handed over to the Qiang people to occupy. Although there were indeed Han people in those positions, there were not necessarily more things to say than those of the Qiang people.

However, even so, after being robbed by the Southern Xiongnu, more than 100,000 or even 200,000 people were forced to leave their hometowns and run to Sili like fleeing famine.

After all, Sima Yi was the first to learn about this news, so he deliberately paid attention to the situation of the Southern Xiongnu going south, so he learned a lot of news about the north. However, the more he read these news, the more Sima Yi felt that the people behind the scenes were too calculating.

Wuyuan, Dingxiang, Yunzhong, and Yanmen counties together also have a name called Hetao Plain. This is a very fertile land, so after Lu Bu subdued all the Hu people who were dissatisfied here, Hu Zhao began to pull people here.

Although Hu Zhao was a supporter of the education sect, he knew very well who was the main trunk and who was the side branch. So after occupying these four counties, although Hu Zhao also educated the Hu people, he brought more Han people from remote areas in Hexi, Shuofang, Shangjun, and the north to Hetao to farm.

The benefits offered were even more brutal than those of Liu Bei, so naturally many Han people were absorbed into those four places. Of course, during this period, there were also Xianbei, Qiang, Xiongnu, Jie and other foreign tribes who also came here to settle down. Well, as an educational sect, of course, they must be treated equally.

Based on this, language, writing, system, and customs are all in line with the Han Dynasty. After the group of Hu people settled in Hu Zhao for two years, they basically became ashamed of being born into Hu people!

Sima Yi basically didn't want to say anything about this trick. After all, he was his own teacher. He often gave lectures and didn't mind any poor and lower-middle peasants coming to listen. However, since Hu Zhao "only knows" Chinese, the first thing that flocked to him was to be able to understand Chinese.

This also led to the unstable Han people either ran to Hu Zhao or Sili Cao Cao.

Although Hu Zhao does not have many soldiers and generals at present, the will left by Lu Bu in the four counties of Dingxiang is still there. In addition, Hu Zhao is at the level of a famous minister. If the Southern Xiongnu attacks in large numbers, it is true that Hu Zhao cannot withstand it, but only a few tribes want to take advantage of it, so he really thinks too much.

In the end, all the tribes that plundered Dingxiang County were beaten by Hu Zhao. Sima Yi knew his teacher very well. This was a gentle old man in the education sect who looked safe and harmless and did not understand military strategies.

In fact, Sima Yi knew very well that Hu Zhao was a middle-aged man, and Hu Zhao was over 100 years old and his wisdom of over 90 was not revealed. By the way, part of his military strategy was taught by Hu Zhao. That guy just deliberately cultivated his beard like that, but in fact the other party was a middle-aged man!

Therefore, Sima Yi could guess the march route of the Southern Xiongnu with his feet, because all the roads in the east were blocked, and the Southern Xiongnu could only go to Xihe Shangjun to the north.

"The Han people in Xihe Shangjun are probably less than half of the Qiang people." Sima Yi said silently.

Looking at the people who were with their families outside Chang'an City, Sima Yi couldn't help but shake his head. Cao Ang probably couldn't help it. He was a humble, generous and kind young man. For such a person, Liu Xie's possible movements were not as important as the displacement of the people.
