Chapter 653 Beheading

The plan could not keep up with the changes. Just at the end of November, the situation on the battlefield in Bingzhou took another subtle change.

The direct reason was that the Wei army began to build boats into beams, and dispatched troops from Shizui Mountain to Hunhuaizhu, which was very likely to move to the east bank of the Yellow River and then fight with the Huns.

Faced with the actions of the Wei army, King Zuo Guli, the commander of the Huns, did not dare to neglect it. However, his reaction was to retreat all the Hun soldiers to the rear, but drove away tens of thousands of Hu Han's men as outposts. The pseudo-emperor Lu Fang did not escape, and King Zuo Guli actually asked him to supervise the battle between Hu Han and Huns' troops.

The princes and warlords of Hu Han all knew their weight and were placed at the forefront of the war between the two armies. Everyone thought that this was the Huns who wanted to fill the gullies and consume the Wei army, and everyone was nervous.

Only Sui Yu, who had made up his mind to surrender to Wei, and Li Xing and the other two were overjoyed.

"In this way, it will be easier for us to pick up the Wei army!"

So, not only did not fear, these two people took the initiative to ask Lu Fang to transfer them to the forefront position, one left and one right, and each other was in the right, which moved Lu Fang very much and praised them as "the loyal and kind-hearted Han Dynasty."

Because it is of great importance, Li dared not tell his confidants and subordinates, so he could only discuss it privately. The only problem now is that although the matter was scheduled to be held on the first day of the December 2000, the specific time, how to respond, and how to come from the Wei army, the opposite side has not notified them yet.

Unlike Suiyu who had already received a lot of gold, Li Xing later joined this plan and only received indirect verbal promises, worried about more: "If General Wei just wants us and the other two to rebel against Lu Fang first and cause the Hu army to be in chaos, what should we do?"

After all, they were still thirty miles away from Hunhuai. The Huns scouts wandered between the two armies at any time. Any small group of Wei troops going out of the frontier could not hide the Hu people's eyes and ears. In this case, the way to maximize the interests of the Wei army was to first let the Huns and Hu Han fall into civil strife, and then take the opportunity to go out to attack them.

If this is the case, the risk of the operation will increase greatly. How many subordinates can they have left after the battle?

Li Xing's hesitation was finally resolved slightly when the last day of November was about to end.

"The boat comes on the water, and comes from the south!" When the night was dark, officials and soldiers guarding the river came to report.

That's right, on the water!

Sui Yu and Li Xing suddenly realized that they almost forgot that this gurgling Yellow River was once the most convenient waterway between the north and the north.

The Yellow River has a huge shape of "Ji" on the land of Bingzhou. From Xinqinzhong to Shuofang, Wuyuan went downstream. As early as when Emperor Wu of Han attacked the Huns, he used ships to transport troops on the river, breaking the Zidao and Liangbei River. Later, the military farms were blocked. Because Xinqinzhong was well developed, there was some surplus grain every year, so he used the Dahe canal to transport grain and fodder to the downstream. It was said in history that "because the canals were irrigated, the water was pounded into the river canal, and the military food was sufficient for less effort."

At its peak, 200 ships were built, and one ship carried 2,000 hu of grain. From March to September, three round trips could be sent 600,000 hu. Isn't this more convenient than carrying grain from Chang'an?

However, when it was Xinmang, the canal transportation declined, and in the past fifteen years, boats and ships disappeared, so they almost forgot the grand occasion of the boats and sails covering the river. Taking a step back, even the canal transportation was concentrated in spring, summer, autumn, and winter, which was not conducive to navigation, so the two of them did not expect this.

However, the use of troops is different from the canal transportation. Even if it is against the wind, it is still a little speed. The two ordered that the camp be unavailable, and they went to the mudflat to meet him. However, they saw ships from Wei who were heading north. In order to ensure the stable night voyage, the two ships formed a boat, and one boat could carry twenty people. The soldiers of hundreds of boats went straight downstream. They had to arrive at the northernmost end of the Huhan Camp to set fire, so that they could use the power of the north wind to burn the sky!

Seeing this situation, Sui Yu and Li Xing had no doubts anymore. He went to the camp overnight and officials gathered, proclaiming:

"Lu Fang is just a mixed Hu of the Three Waters. She pretended to be a descendant of the Han family and deceived us for a full ten years!"

"Now that his identity is disclosed, he wants to offer his land to the Xiongnu, so that our children in Bingzhou will always be Hu slaves! He abandoned his clothes and wore Hu clothes."

The two took off the Hun-style felt clothes they were wearing and inserted them on their spears to ignite them.

"The Holy Emperor is in Chang'an, and General Geng is invincible. The first day of the twelfth month has arrived. We abandon Hu and join Wei. We are willing to transfer the spears and spears to fight against the Huns for the previous Wei Dynasty!"

...

When the time entered the first and first sight of the December month, the flames burned from the Huhan camp ten miles south, the King Zuo Guli, who was commanding the coalition, immediately knew about it.

"Have Liu Wenbo's generals responded to the Wei army?"

After hesitating for a moment, King Zuo Guli planned to send troops to rescue him, but as his deputy, the "King of Right Ao Huo", dissuaded him.

"King Zuo Guli, it would be better if he didn't save the Emperor of Han!"

This Chibi Bi has an extraordinary status. His father was the previous generation of Shanyu "Xiao Shan Yu Xian". The name of Xian Han Dynasty was called Xiao Shanyu because he was named Wang Mang. Old Wang Mang liked auspicious words and later he also named "Shun Shanyu".

Shun Shanyu was a puppet in Chang'an. Of course, it was very Shun, but Xiao Shanyu was different. Although he was also hostage in Chang'an, he had a rebellious bone in his mind. Not only did he escape back to the Huns privately, but after a series of complex struggles, he accepted Wang Mang's "gifts" and deceived a lot of gold and food, but he turned against the Xin Dynasty and officially announced that the Huns no longer respected the Central Plains and took the first step of independence and revival.

After Xiao Shanyu Yu died, his eldest son Bi failed to inherit because the Huns used the system of brothers and brothers. As Huhanye's son, Xiao Shanyu had two younger brothers behind him, so Bi was only named "The King of You'ao Hu" by the new Shanyu.

It would be fine if everyone followed the rules, but the decisions of the ancestors were followed. However, the new Shanyu called the capital and the corpse of Gao Ruodu did not speak of martial ethics. The first thing he did after ascending the throne was to convict and kill his younger brother and make his son the "Left King".

After leaving this stage, Qiang Bi was quite frightened, fearing that he would be killed. Fortunately, because he was young and had no prestige, the Shanyu was relieved for the time being and still let him take charge of the eight tribes in the south, but he sent King Zuo Guli and the Marquis of Lianggudu to supervise the subordinates of Bi.

The tribe of Zhao Bi was also the main force in sending troops to the south this time, so he naturally had a certain say. Seeing that he opposed saving Lu Fang and Hu Han's army, King Zuo Guli was quite puzzled.

Zhao Shibi Bisui said: "Liu Wenbo and Da Shanyu have a secret agreement. As long as Hu can help him conquer Longyou, Guanzhong, and let the Han Dynasty re-establish it in Chang'an, Liu Wenbo will be willing to present sixteen counties suitable for animal husbandry in the north to the Da Shanyu."

"But King Zuo Guli thinks, can Hu Dang really march to Chang'an?"

Zhao Shibi liked southern affairs and did not despise the Wei army: "During the time of Yizhixi Shanyu, Hu was a great country of barbarians. The people in Beizhou all followed the orders, and there were 300,000 string controls. After fighting with the Han army for a full forty years, the population dropped sharply, and no more than 100,000 cavalry could be used. Not only were they lost to the Western Regions, but they were even attacked by the slaves of Dingling and Wuhuan. They were divided into five and the war continued. It was my grandfather Huhanye Shanyu who made peace with the Han Dynasty, which made Hu respect the Shanyu court again."

"My father first went to Chang'an to stay for many years. When he came back, he told me that although the Central Plains had undergone chaos, the population was still a hundred times that of Hu! The army that could be organized was at least ten times that of Hu. Fortunately, Wang Mang was stupid, so Hu could win several battles."

"Now that the Wei State is becoming more powerful is not comparable to the New Dynasty. A few years ago, King Zuo Guli helped Lu Fang to attack Xin Qinzhong. He failed. The attack on Bingzhou and Youzhou was becoming more and more difficult. Although Hu is becoming more powerful now, he cannot compare with Maodun and Yizhishi. Even Shizui Mountain cannot pass through, let alone attacking Chang'an."

So Zhao Shibi felt that the Great Khan was confused. It was too unwise to let the Huns be involved in this war for a goal that could not be achieved, and to reduce the subordinates of the famous kings.

Seeing that King Zuo Guli was still hesitating, he made a simple and easy-to-understand example: "If a shepherd tells King Zuo Guli, 'Help me drive this group of sheep to the Beihai, as long as you get there, the ram gave birth to a small sheep, I will give you sixteen of them'."

"If you really spend time traveling to the North Sea, many horses will be exhausted, and rams will never give birth to lambs."

"For such people, we can only use the method Hu is best at."

Qiang Bi smiled and proposed a plan: "Because of the Great Shanyu, it is difficult for us to kill the shepherd's lord directly and rob his finances. But when we meet a group of looters, we have the opportunity to abandon the shepherd's lord, and his flock will naturally belong to us!"

King Zuo Guli and King You Ao Hu were in charge of the southern tribes. Compared with the unattainable Guanzhong and the difficult to conquer the New Qinzhong, they were more coveted by the Shuofang, Wuyuan and Yunzhong in Lu Fang's hands.

King Zuo Guli was moved, and he didn't want to fight this war! The Huns had long been two hundred years ago. The so-called revival was just a revival. The internal division was serious. Except for the Shanyu, he also wanted to rebuild his glory. Everyone else just wanted to preserve their strength and actively pick up cheap things. It would be better for others to chew tough problems.

"The Great Shanyu attached great importance to this war and also cared about Liu Wenbo's promise. If he asked, how should he answer?"

Qiang Bi had already thought of a countermeasure: "As long as you collude with Xiao Wang of each division and agree to divide Liu Wenbo's territory later, everyone can say the same thing: Liu Wenbo's subordinates had a strange intention and surrendered to the Wei army. Not only did they kill Lu Fang, but they also wanted to let 40,000 Hu cavalry be trapped here."

"Fortunately, the God of Qilian is blessed and King Zuo Guli is cautious. This is how he can take everyone back and save the main force of the Shanyu Court! Not only is there no fault, but he has made great contributions! Shuofang, Wuyuan, and Yunzhong will all return to King Zuo Guli to order!"

King Zuo Guli was finally convinced and ignored the envoys sent by Lu Fang to ask for help again. He ordered all the Huns to evacuate the riverside camp overnight and return to Shuofang!

Before leaving, the King of Right Aohuo looked at the fire and fighting sounds of Huhan camp in the south. He would never forget the letter written by the Emperor Wu Lun of Wei a few months ago, and then the letter from the Daxing Order Feng Yan and the Embroidered Uniform Guard to find a way to send it to his royal court:

"In terms of brothers, the right wise king Yi Tu knew that Yas was the youngest son of Huhanye Shanyu, and should be established, and he would be killed. In terms of sons, the eldest son of the king in front of the king should be established. If he did not seek a way out, he might be killed sooner or later!"

The Emperor of Wei made a lot of sense. They had the same enemy. The current Xiongnu Shanyu retreated this time was the first response of the lobbying in the letter by Kuroshi.

"yes."

Zhao Duobi thought to himself: "When the Shanyu dies, I will become the new 'Huhanye Shanyu'. What's wrong with it?"

...

When it was dawn, the Huns who had lit up their talent for running away were completely separated.

The Hu Han warlords who had been fighting each other for a night finally reached an agreement, scrambling to follow Yu and Li Xing to be the "pioneers of the Chinese expelling barbarians". Facing the late Wei army, they shouted "Follow me" and searched Lu Fang everywhere.

Lu Fang was caught on the edge of the desert. The emperor of the Han Dynasty, who was a presumptuous emperor, betrayed everyone overnight. Even the master, the Huns, who had been licking for ten years, suddenly abandoned him. In panic, he was left with the instinct of escaping and surviving.

If he was riding a donkey cart, mule cart, or half-broken boat, he might have run away long ago, but Lu Fang was so desperate that he rode a camel and was caught up by Hu Han's cavalry. An arrow shot, and the camel fell down and pressed him down.

When Lu Fang was dragged out and pushed all the way to the Yellow River by his former ministers, Geng Yan, the general of the chariot and cavalry, also arrived here, looking at the north side to calmly retreat, and not even a sheep gave him the remaining Hun army, and he was still feeling unsatisfied.

After Sui Yu, Li Xing and others repeatedly proved that the person bound was Lu Fang's thief, Geng Yanxiao came over with interest and looked at Lu Fang, who was covered in mud and sand. He was pressed to the ground with his face against the mud flat.

Geng Yan pulled out the famous sword given by the fifth reunion, put the sharp blade in front of Lu Fang, and smiled:

"Lu Fang, listen to the rumors."

"You have been blessed by the Han emperors and have twelve lives and twelve heads!"
