The descendants of the Qiang people, the Southern Xiongnu people, and the intermarriage between the two were called Huqiang.
He sent 50,000 troops, claiming to be 100,000, to invade the Han Dynasty southward.
If it was during the Han Dynasty, as long as the Great Han Dynasty did not fall apart, it would be a major event.
Furthermore, the Southern Xiongnu in the Huqiang were called Han ministers. Their duty was to defend the northern border for the Han.
Thus, this was considered an invasion and a comeback.
The dukes naturally received news of such a major event.
Those who were far away were indifferent and continued to plan how to strengthen themselves.
Those who were close to it should protect themselves and think of a way to consolidate the border so that they would not be harassed by the flames of war.
At the same time, they gloated over Dong Zhuo's misfortune.
They definitely couldn't break Chang 'an, but they were happy to see Dong Zhuo exhausted.
Later, he heard that the generals of Xiliang were unwilling to go north to resist the enemy. It was Yang Yu, an old subordinate of Bingzhou, who was also the one who had awed the three auxiliary generals when he was attacking Dong.
This surprised many people.
He really couldn't understand why Yang Yu would do this.
Only a few people managed to see through the crux of it.
For example, Cao Cao.
After receiving the news, he put down the bamboo scroll heavily and sighed.
"Why is my lord sighing?" The person who spoke had a face as white as a sheet of paper. He was obviously a sickly person.
The strategist that Cao Cao valued the most was a talented actor.
Cao Cao handed the bamboo slips over. Xi Zhicai only glanced at them a few times before he started coughing violently.
"Cough, cough, cough-"
"Lord, when the time is right, this child will definitely meet Feng Hualong and become a great enemy. We must eliminate him!”
Indeed, great minds think alike.
Back then, when the allied forces attacked Dong, if it wasn't for Yang Yu's sudden appearance, perhaps the Han Dynasty would have been revived by now.
After that, they were almost killed in the pursuit of Luoyang, and more than half of their troops were lost. They had yet to recover until now, all thanks to Yang Yu.
Thus, no one understood Yang Yu's terror better than Cao Cao.
Don't look at the age of adulthood, what would happen in a few years?
"I know that he will become a great trouble in the future, but it is beyond my reach. Now that the Yellow Turban forces in Qingzhou are strong and have broken through Yanzhou counties, we should focus on dealing with our own affairs first.”
"As for encountering the Wind Dragon, the wind can't be blown casually. Let's wait and see.”
Xi Zhicai nodded slightly. This was the only way.
Then, his eyes flashed and he whispered,"My lord, I have a plan that can help you take control of Yanzhou.”
.....
There were very few people like Cao Cao who could see through this.
Therefore, most people admired Yang Yu as an iron-boned official, unlike Dong Zhuo's vicious subordinates, who was loyal to the Han Dynasty.
Gradually, some of the talented people who had failed to meet Yang Yu or those who had aspirations remembered Yang Yu's name.
His gaze turned to Slave Gao.
The Hu Qiang army had been attacking Gao Nu for three days, but they still could not take him down.
The corpses piled up under the city wall were already five feet tall, and the casualties were obvious.
Hu Qiang's golden tent.
Uphro admitted that he was indeed furious because of the death of two envoys.
But he was not a brainless good-for-nothing who could be controlled by fear.
Attacking the city in three days, the casualties were indeed high.
This was because every time, there would always be a little bit of difference.
He was just a step away from taking down the city wall.
Unfortunately, he had lost three days.
Every time he thought he would succeed, he would return empty-handed.
"Chanyu, let me attack again!”
"That's right, Chanyu. Nearly half of Gao Nu's city walls have been destroyed, and some places have even collapsed. As long as we gather more elite soldiers, we can definitely take them down!”
"Attack again, Chanyu!"
Although the generals were exhausted, they were still filled with fighting spirit.
In this battle, all the tribes had suffered losses, so they had to win first.
Wouldn't it be a huge loss if they stopped fighting just like that?
He was like a gambler at a mahjong table who was running out of money. He only wanted to continue betting and try to turn the tables.
Yu Fuluo pondered for a moment." The sky is getting dark. The various tribes will stop fighting and fight again tomorrow.”
After dismissing the generals, Yuflo did not drink.
These few days, he woke up in the middle of the night with a bad feeling.
However, he couldn't grasp or touch this feeling. He couldn't give up on attacking Slave Gao just because of this.
Even if they took a detour to the south, it would take a lot more time. Moreover, the various tribes had already lost many people. If they did not fight, their prestige would definitely drop greatly. The gains would not make up for the losses.
.....
It has been ten days since the cavalry came out with a strange plan.
After wiping out more than ten thousand Hu Qiang people in the first battle, Yang Yu split his forces into ten groups and spread them out, each attacking and killing small tribes according to the secret map.
The entire army was clad in Hu robes and had scimitars at their waists. They would not be discovered unless they got close, and they were extremely confusing.
In a short period of time, the 3,000 Snowy Dragon Cavalry had transformed into Life-Seeking Wuchangs and were harvesting lives.
Wherever he passed, he killed and buried him.
Regardless of gender or age, they were thoroughly cleaned up.
Another three days passed.
They had already advanced more than 600 miles north, wiped out dozens of tribes of all sizes, killed and buried countless.
Yang Yu finally saw the final goal of this long run.
Ancient City.
Shuofang.
The Western Han built the city to defend against the frontlines of the Xiongnu.
If he knew that his descendants would hand over this strategic location, would Emperor Wu of Han open his coffin?
In the south of the city, behind a small hill.
Yang Yu looked at the city from the dense grass.
Although the Huqiang did not manage a fixed town, they still had the foundation from when they were built. The city walls were thick and sturdy, making it difficult to break through.
"My lord, the other nine divisions have all assembled.”
"The eighteen cavalrymen of Yanyun have discovered that there are six thousand strong enemies in Shuofang City, with a total number of about twenty thousand.”
Luo Cheng's words made Yang Yu fall into deep thought.
Deep behind enemy lines, without backup, the enemy was outnumbered.
Rashly attacking the city was the most unwise choice.
No matter how strong the Snow Dragon Cavalry were, they couldn't take down Shuofang City.
"Who is the leader?"
"He is Yu Fuluo's younger brother, Huhuquan. It is said that he looks fierce and has boundless strength.”
Yang Yu was slightly surprised.
Another person who left his name in history.
Yuflo and Huhuquan had both attached themselves to the burly man several times and jumped horizontally several times.
Even if he died, his direct descendants would still bring disaster to the Central Plains. Later, the emperor of the Xiongnu Han Kingdom that destroyed the Western Jin Dynasty was Yu Fuluo's grandson.
After observing for several hours and figuring out the habits of the Hu Qiang, Yang Yu retreated down the hill.
From the reaction, the enemy didn't know that the Han elites had entered Hetao.
This had something to do with the speed of the Snowy Dragon Cavalry's advance and the fact that they did not leave a single Hu Qiang alive.
"How many horses have you collected along the way?”
" I don't know the exact number," Hua Mulan replied respectfully." But there are at least 30,000 of them. They are hidden in the dense forest within 30 miles."”
Yang Yu grinned and patted Hua Mulan's shoulder." My mother taught me since I was young that I shouldn't casually take other people's things. Although Hu Qiang is a beast, we have borrowed the horse power for several days. It's time to exchange it back.”
