Looking at Zhang Liao, Jia Kui could not help but curl his lips. He did not want to lead the team back to Qiantun, but wanted to follow Zhang Liao and continue to raid the enemy tribe.
"Just do whatever I ask you to do. There's so much nonsense. I won't be able to fight without you in the future. Take me away quickly."
Zhang Liao frowned slightly. Although Jia Kui took the initiative to ask for a fight rather than passively avoiding it, what he wanted was absolute obedience. He could not disobey himself whether he asked for a fight or avoided a fight.
"promise."
Seeing Zhang Liao angry, Jia Kui acted like a child who made a mistake and directly admitted his mistake to him.
"Well, General Yan Xing, let's go."
Zhang Liao nodded, and then directly followed Yan Xing and rushed towards the direction of the Zhanmu tribe with the cavalry who came to support them.
Jia Kui led his men back to Qiantun's tribe, and Gao Lan finally came over with 30,000 cavalry to cooperate with Xun You.
"Military advisor, I'm here."
Gao Lan came directly to Xun You and saluted him with clasped fists.
"Boyu, how's it going? How's it going with Zhangjia's tribe?
Is the resistance fierce or not?
Is the loss of troops and horses heavy?"
Seeing Gao Lan coming, Xun You finally felt relieved. You must know that the enemy on Gao Lan's side is the weakest. The enemy only has 15,000 soldiers and horses. If they take down 50,000 people, it would be too much to lose troops and generals.
.
"The Zhangjia tribe is considered to be people who know current affairs. When they saw our army coming, they immediately knew that they were unable to resist. There was no conflict at all, so they led the whole tribe to surrender. I have asked Yuan Ke to lead the army to escort them south, and I will lead
Bring 30,000 cavalry to support the battlefield here."
Upon hearing Xun You's inquiry, Gao Lan directly told Zhang Jia's situation and surrendered without hitting Zhang Renjia. It did make him hit the cotton with a heavy punch and it was not affected at all.
"Okay, after Wenyuan defeated the Qiantun tribe, he got the news that the Zhanmu tribe had led troops to support, and directly led more than 10,000 cavalry to attack the enemy again. I have sent Yan Xing to lead the troops to support, so there is no need there for the time being.
Forget it, if you do this, immediately lead your cavalry to Colt's headquarters, I want you to capture it as quickly as possible."
What Xun You wants now is to fight quickly. Since the battle has already begun, there is no reason to leave time for the enemy to organize. He must attack as quickly as possible and defeat all enemies with a lightning-fast offensive.
"You don't need me here anymore?
Or am I waiting?"
Gao Lan took a look at the situation here and saw that the enemy had too many prisoners, but Xun You didn't have many soldiers and horses. If he left now, he was afraid that problems would arise.
"No, there won't be any problems here. The war is urgent. You have to remember what's most important right now, time. You must not give the enemy a chance. Do you understand?"
Xun You glanced at Gao Lan, indicated to him that there was no problem here, and asked him to lead his troops and leave with peace of mind.
"In this case, I have nothing to say. Gao Lan takes his leave."
Since Xun You has said that there is no problem here, he has nothing to hesitate. He prioritizes the war and directly leads his 30,000 cavalrymen to roll up the wild sand and rush towards Colt's troops.
The war on the grassland was in full swing. Zhang Liao led the soldiers and horses sent by Yan Xing to support him and went straight to the outside of Zhan Muer's tribe.
The people there were preparing to move, but there was not enough time, so they were killed by Zhang Liao.
After a battle, the entire Zhanmu tribe fell, and except for a few who escaped, most of them were captured.
After Zhang Liao finished killing here, he stopped temporarily. He was exhausted and could only rest temporarily, while Gao Lan led an army of 30,000 people directly into the grassland belonging to Colt's tribe.
However, it was found that the place was deserted and there was no trace of the enemy at all. After catching the horse thief You Ge was nearby, he learned that this tribe had long ago abandoned the grassland and gone north to seek a living.
In desperation, Gao Lan could only lead his army to rest on the spot, and at the same time sent people to report the news to Xun You and wait for his decision.
Xun You came to an end here for the time being. The four major tribes had nearly 100,000 troops and hundreds of thousands of people captured by him. After capturing these, the army temporarily rested.
The consecutive days of battle not only greatly tested the cavalry, but also tested the horses under their command to the extreme. Although there is no shortage of horses on the grassland, it will take time to adapt to the new horses, but this does not mean that he will stop taking action.
In the name of Bu Dugen, Xun You issued a decree to the surrounding small and medium-sized tribes, asking them to surrender as a whole, otherwise they would bear the consequences if the army killed them.
Zhao Yun's side was also prosperous. He picked three large tribes and five or six medium-sized tribes one after another, captured more than 100,000 people, and annihilated 50,000 to 60,000 enemies. After doing this, Zhao Yun also stopped his actions.
First, the soldiers needed to rest after fighting for days. Second, like Xun You, they focused on Bu Dugen's will and wanted to spread the news. He was the king's master and asked those tribes to surrender as soon as possible. Otherwise, the army would kill them and they would bear the consequences.
The entire Xianbei grassland was in turmoil under the attack of two armies from the East and the West and nearly 200,000 cavalry. A sense of pessimism and despair enveloped the entire Xianbei tribe. They did not know where to go because it was impossible to resist the soldiers and horses of the big Han.
Huang Zhong and others led the New Fifth Army out of the Great Wall and directly met Yuan Shu's troops heading south. They took over 200,000 to 300,000 prisoners of the Kebineng tribe from their hands. Then Yuan Shu directly led the guards ahead and returned.
Youzhou, his time is precious and cannot be wasted on these prisoners.
Xun Chen has been sitting in Yuyang City because he still has a lot of things to do. The Wuhuan people have just dispersed from Youzhou to various parts of the Han Dynasty. Next, there will be a population of 200,000 to 300,000 people in Kebineng. These are all troubles.
Well, if he doesn't take charge here, I'm really afraid something will go wrong.
Yuan Shu returned to Youzhou and went directly to Yuyang to meet Xun Chen.
"My lord, thank you for your hard work along the way."
Xun Chen saluted Yuan Shu. As a lord, he could personally lead people north to conquer the grassland. To be honest, if nothing else, this magnanimity and courage could not be resisted by others. Even the original Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was also a big man, led by Wei Qing.
and Huo Qubing sent troops to attack the Xiongnu.
"What's the hard work? Just treat it as a trip, how about it?"
Is there any telegram from Gongda?"
But Yuan Shu shook his head. He didn't have to work hard. This journey was just about enjoying the scenery of the grassland. The real hard work was for the soldiers fighting on the front line.
"There is indeed a telegram from Gongda. He and Zilong are currently attacking the grassland in a pincer movement, one from west to east and the other from east to west.
And the results of the battle were also very brilliant. In addition to the more than 200,000 people of the Budugen tribe, Gongda and Zilong captured several large and middle tribes, annihilating more than 100,000 Xianbei cavalry, and captured more than 200,000 people from both sides.
,
Xianbei's millions of people are now almost captured by us, and I believe it won't take long for the grasslands to become our big man's bag."
Xun Chen directly reported Xun You's telegram to Yuan Shu. Without a transmitter, it would have been too slow to deliver the message. He summarized the messages before submitting them to Yuan Shu.
"That's right. They are all pillars of the Han Dynasty. The fight against Xianbei is almost over."
In just a short time, Xun You and Zhao Yun have already done so much. Counting the results of previous battles, Xianbei's previous statistics had a population of one million. Although the specific situation may be slightly more, so what?
It's just more prisoners.
"Lord, if nothing happens, you should return to Jizhou. You have been out long enough this time."
Xun Chen looked at Yuan Shu and signaled that he had been out for too long, and that he, who was about to become the king of a country, could not be so willful.
"I understand. Since there is nothing going on here, I should return to Jizhou. I guess it will be almost the same at Gongtai. The heat is coming soon."
Yuan Shu glanced at the sky in the distance. The battle in Jiaozhou was over, and it was almost time to take the final step.
"Well, so my lord, it's better to leave early."
Xun Chen nodded, indeed, if Bingzhou hadn't been pacified yet, that step would have been taken long ago. Everyone was looking forward to it. After all, only if Yuan Shu took that step, could they follow him and get promoted to nobility and glory.
unlimited.
"Then if there is nothing else, I will leave. I will leave this place to you. Once the prisoners of Kebineng are escorted to the big man, they will be dispersed immediately. They will be dispersed as much as possible. I should not need to say this."
Since everything was fine here, Yuan Shu had nothing to say. After giving a few instructions, he took Dian Wei directly to leave Youzhou and headed towards Jizhou under the escort of the guards.
After a long journey, Yuan Shu went all the way south and returned directly to Xindu without stopping.
"My lord, you will be gone for a long time."
When Yuan Shu returned, Ju Shou immediately greeted him.
"What's wrong?"
Hearing Ju Shou's words, Yuan Shu was stunned. His expedition lasted only a short time, and this battle on the grassland was considered to be faster.
"My lord, Mistress Linglong gave you a little daughter-in-law while you were gone."
Jushu glanced at Yuan Shu, then Yuan Shu left immediately, and the news of Linglong's birth came out.
"Hey, look at my head, I'm going to the city right now."
If he now has four wives, one principal, three auxiliaries, and the one with whom Yuan Shu has the deepest affection is the maid Linglong, it is really a sin that Linglong is not here to give birth to her.
With Yuan Shu in front and Ju Shu behind, the carriage went directly through its own dedicated passage and rushed to the Prefectural Shepherd's Mansion.
Yuan Shu walked directly through the pavilion rockery and appeared in the exquisite courtyard.
"The young master is back."
The people in Linglong Courtyard are all old people who used to be with Yuan Shu, so their names have always been called Linglong, which has not changed at all.
"Shh."
Yuan Shu made a gesture of silence, and then quietly came outside the house. Through the crack in the door, he saw Linglong recuperating on the bed, and her newborn daughter was lying next to her. Linglong's eyes were filled with the light of kind motherhood.
"exquisite."
Yuan Shu gently opened the door and called Linglong's name.
"Ah, Master, when did you come back?"
Seeing Yuan Shu, whom she had longed for, appear next to her, Linglong cried out in joy.
"Shh."
Following Linglong's shout, the little baby beside him woke up immediately. When he saw the unfamiliar Yuan Shu, he was not afraid at all. Instead, he stretched out his little hand and smiled all over his face.
"Have you chosen a name?"
Yuan Shu picked up the child directly. The little cutie was really not afraid of people and was babbling.
"I won't wait until the young master comes back to give me a name."
Linglong looked at Yuan Shu, a trace of satisfaction flashed in her eyes. He was not doing it for fame or profit, as long as he could accompany Yuan Shu and help his children grow up.
"Just call her Yuan Rui. It's the same as the pistil. How about it?"
