Farmer of Shu Han

"Oh dear, why are you here?"

Originally, Feng Da Sima, who was still eagerly thinking about autumn, immediately let go of what he was holding when he saw the beautiful and picturesque Mrs. Zuo.

At the same time, he quickly pulled his hand out from somewhere.

The arms shook uncontrollably almost at the same time!

Hua Xiaowu in his arms was also agitated.

Cooperating with Feng Da Sima's shaking arm, he broke free from Feng's arms in some embarrassment, staggered a bit, and then stood still.

Hands are frantically arranging the messy clothes on his body.

The two of them looked very much like men and women who were caught having an affair on the spot - of course, the two of them were indeed considered as such, who made them not justified?

General Guan, who was satisfied with his bad taste, walked slowly to Feng Da Sima and sat down, raised his chin:

"Why, my concubine is hindering A Lang's good business?"

"No, no," Feng Da Sima hurriedly picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip to suppress his shock, and said with a dry smile, "They're not outsiders, so it's okay for the family to say anything?"

Then he looked at General Guan and asked again:

"Where did Xijun come from?"

General Guan is not an unreasonable person, not to mention that she personally sent Hua Xiaowu to Da Sima Feng's couch.

Seeing that Feng Da Sima had a good attitude, he didn't bother too much, and handed over an official document:

"Bingzhou sent news that our people who were active in the north of Youzhou were ambushed and suffered a big loss."

"Um?!"

Feng Da Sima frowned, and took the official document, which was an unexpected surprise.

After all, the cavalry of the big man can still suffer on the grassland?

"what happened?"

General Guan turned his head, raised his chin again, and signaled Hua Xiaowu with the same gesture:

"What are you doing here? Why don't you pour me tea? No winks!"

Hua Xiaowu felt guilty, and hurriedly stepped forward to pour a cup of tea upon hearing this.

After pouring, I realized, hey, why should I be so obedient?

General Guan picked up the teacup and took a sip, as if trying to ease his emotions, before replying after a while:

"I suspect that Sima Yi may have sent troops to Youzhou."

Feng Da Sima raised his voice: "Yes!"

His eyes widened: "Sima Yi sent troops to Youzhou?"

It was expected that Sima Yi would take over Youzhou.

After all, after taking Jizhou, Youzhou will be cut off from Xuchang.

Wang Xiong may be regarded as a character with some talents.

But staying in the bitter cold place of Youzhou, in order to show some kindness to the Hu people, he even did not hesitate to push away Tian Yu who advocated being tough on the Hu people.

Then Cao Rui saw it, hey, Wang Cishi, you did a good job, anyway, you don't need so many soldiers in Youzhou, why don't I transfer them to support Guanzhong.

It doesn't matter if it's done like this, but in the battle of Guanzhong, the monarch and ministers of Wei State put high hopes on Sima Yi, and was chased away by others, and finally ran back to Luoyang.

The second batch of Hebei soldiers who were transferred, who were also the last foundation of Hebei, were dragged in Hanoi, and finally incorporated by Sima Taifu.

It's okay to say that Jizhou is in the rear, but Youzhou is suffering.

The land of Youzhou is too cold, and the food production is not comparable to that of the inland, and it has to bear the responsibility of supplying horses to the inland.

The soldiers and horses were withdrawn again, and the defense was empty.

After the First World War in Guanzhong, the barbarians who were originally obedient, for some reason, made troubles in the frontier, and the troubles became bigger and bigger, and the chaos became more and more chaotic.

Even if Wang Xiong wanted to recruit soldiers from the county, he could only think about it in the end—even if he got a little bit, it would be a drop in the bucket.

Soldiers eat food, soldiers eat food, if you want to raise soldiers, you must have food first.

Where does Youzhou get so much food?

If there is no food, then what kind of soldiers are recruited!

In the past few years, the situation in Youzhou has become more and more rotten, which made Wang Xiong, who was still a little angry, very anxious.

In the face of the increasingly rampant barbarians, Youzhou can hold the main city well, what else do you want?

Ask the imperial court for help, but the letters sent to Xuchang one after another are sealed like stones and sink into the sea.

Apart from being busy sleeping with the late emperor's woman every day, General Cao had a great time fighting Sima Taifu.

Who is in the mood to take care of Youzhou?

Not only unintentional, but also powerless.

Money, food, people, no matter what, General Cao is also in short supply!

So it's better to pretend that you don't know anything.

It was not until Sima Yi entered Jizhou that he wrote a letter to Wang Xiong.

After Wang Xiong received the letter, he almost cried, wishing he could call Brother Sima Yi:

Taifu, it's hard for you to still remember me, brother.

If you don't come again, I will hang my seal and go home.

So Sima Yi took over Youzhou even more smoothly than Jizhou.

It's just that people didn't expect that he dared to send troops out to ambush.

To be able to ambush Liu Hun Tufa Tianli and others on the grasslands outside the Great Wall, and to defeat them, at least some blood was required.

After all, the cavalry led by Liu Hun and others was at best inferior to the fine cavalry of the Guanzhong Eighth Army.

Because some of them are serious cavalry soldiers of the Han army.

"How much did you lose?"

"Nearly two thousand rides."

Hearing this, Da Sima Feng took a breath and said in disbelief, "Two thousand horses?"

"right."

General Guan let out a sigh of relief, as if the news made her a little depressed.

Feng Da Sima, who hadn't read the military newspaper yet, expected five or six hundred riders at most.

Unexpectedly... two thousand rides?

And it's still a good horse!

Do you know how many war horses Lao Tzu gave them in a year for the country of Wu's thousands of requests?

And it's a big deal!

It is not comparable to picking horses from any tribe on the grassland and desert!

ride!

What kind of unit is riding?

Both the man and the horse are gone.

This bunch of losers!

Sitting up straight, Da Sima Feng immediately opened the military newspaper and read it carefully.

Along with the military newspaper, there was also the battle situation written by Sima in the army.

After reading it, Da Sima Feng looked angry and snapped the military newspaper on the case:

"Obviously knowing that there is a new Wei army in Youzhou, this is called a new enemy situation, why don't you know to be more careful!"

This defeat was obviously carefully planned.

In the past few years, Liu Hun and others set out from Pingcheng, and their scope of activities gradually expanded. From Daijun to outside the fortress of Shanggu, they can be seen everywhere, and sometimes they can even stand out in Yongcheng.

In line with the principle of not bringing a war horse into Youzhou, almost all the Hu people outside the Great Wall in the north of Youzhou were driven to Pingcheng by various means to trade livestock.

The only exception is the eastern Xianbei located in Yuyang and Youbeiping. Because the distance is too far away, there is no way to affect it too much for the time being.

Things go bad here.

Since the spring of this year, some Wei troops have been added to the frontier fortress in Youzhou.

No more, no less, just enough to hold the key points of the frontier.

Although these Wei troops are unable to take the initiative to attack, they can still rely on the frontier fortress to resist if there are not many troops on the other side.

Although this did not cause much harm to Liu Hun and others, it did cause some trouble to the operation.

So they wanted to pull out the nails on these side plugs.

It's a pity that these Wei troops seem to be very cautious and never go out of the fortress easily.

Even if Liu Hun sent a small number of men and horses to drive cattle and sheep past the city, the Wei army in the city could resist rushing out.

It was this kind of behavior that made Liu Hun and others think that there would not be too many Wei troops in the pass.

Coupled with the fact that their actions on the grassland have been too smooth these years, they let down their vigilance and finally became contemptuous.

Until one day, a certain tribe on the grassland sent them a message:

The eastern Xianbei on the desert north of Youbin is driving a large number of livestock to trade in Baitan County, Yuyang County, Youzhou, before winter. Among them, there are no less than 3,000 war horses.

In order to prevent this transaction, but also to establish prestige in the Xianbei area in the east.

Liu Hun and others sent out their entire army, ready to intercept them at the edge of the pass.

The result can be imagined, the interception failed but was surrounded.

If the soldiers hadn't been brave and good at fighting and broke through with all their might, the five thousand elite cavalry would have escaped three thousand and replaced them with the tribes on the grassland, the entire army might have been wiped out.

"This time, even if it wasn't Sima Yi who made the move, he might be an experienced general among the Wei thieves."

To paralyze, slow down the enemy, hit with another blow, and lure Liu Hun and others to be fooled step by step. Every step is carefully planned. This is not what ordinary generals can do.

Feng Da Sima sighed:

"After this battle, even if Sima Yi discovered my plan in the north of Youzhou."

If it's someone else, even if it is discovered by the other party, there is no need to worry too much.

After all, the big man can afford the price, and he is not afraid to raise the price with Wei Guo.

As long as the money is in place, I believe everything is easy to say.

Those who are concerned, who knows what targeted measures Sima Yi will take?

In the past, you can let go and do it as much as you want, but I'm afraid you have to be careful in the future.

Especially near the frontier, once Sima Yi, an old tortoise, was bitten by him, it would still be very painful.

Now Feng's heart is very painful.

Two thousand rides!

How much food does it cost to train two thousand fine riders?

"Now Liu Hun and the others..." Feng Da Sima put his hand on the military newspaper, "They have already returned to Bingzhou, that is to say, Sima Yi may get a batch of war horses from the barbarians in the north this year."

Because of this defeat, and the fact that Liu Hun and others were forced to return to Bingzhou, at least some Hu people in Youzhou would become apprehensive for a short time.

After all, barbarians are afraid of power and not virtuous!

No matter how many benefits are given, it is not as simple as a saber.

Liu Hun and others withdrew from the Youzhou border temporarily, and retreated in embarrassment in front of the Hu people.

The power of the Wei people's victory was enough for Sima Yi to do something.

August and September are the best time of the year to trade livestock.

It seems that Sima Yi deliberately picked a good time.

Apart from this, what caught Feng Da Sima's attention the most was a detail in the military newspaper.

Gently knocking on the military newspaper, he suppressed his anger and said:

"According to the battle report written by the army Sima, the scouts in the army did find out that they saw a large number of Hu people driving a large number of livestock from the northeast..."

Could it be that the news that Liu Hun and others got is true?

Then Sima Yi used his tricks?

If the guess is true, then even if the Hu people in the north of Youzhou are tempted by profit, or they admire the big man, they will still not sell a horse to Youzhou.

But Sima Yi still got the horse he wanted from the Eastern Xianbei in Youbeiping.

It can be said that hugging grass and hitting rabbits is right.

"Pingcheng is too far away from Youbeiping, not to mention those Xianbei people in the east are still in Yuyang and even to the north of Youbeiping. Our people are simply out of reach."

Fortunately, those Xianbei people are far away. If I remember correctly, such a large-scale trading event should only happen once every two or three years.

Feng Da Sima raised his head and seemed to be thinking about something. After a while, he murmured:

"I remember, when I was inspecting Pingcheng, I met a man named Tuoba Desert Khan, who claimed to be the eldest son of Suotou Xianbei?"

(Note: Chapter 1169 to Chapter 1172)

"Suotou Xianbei?"

General Guan felt that this name was a little familiar. After all, Liu Hun and others were making troubles in Youzhou, and they must have sent back a lot of information from the grassland.

After thinking for a while, General Guan quickly remembered: "Huh? Is it the largest one in Xianbei in the east?"

"Yes." Feng Da Sima nodded, "Two years ago, I heard that there are already more than 100,000 people who control strings, and they are the largest tribe in Monan."

"No," General Guan seemed to remember something again, and exclaimed, "I mean, aren't they the tribe of the goddess?"

That celestial girl is probably from the Shanmen, who even sent people to rob their Feng family's things.

How could General Guan not remember?

But Da Sima Feng nodded: "That's right, it's this tribe."

"How could Ah Lang know about that Tuoba Desert?" General Guan paused, "He's still the eldest son of the leader of Suotou? Then, then..."

According to A Lang's temperament, this kind of person will definitely not let him escape from the palm of his hand, right?

"Tuoba Desert Khan, his lord, that is, the leader of Suo Tou, is called Tuoba Liwei, the guy who was born in heaven."

Feng Da Sima rubbed his forehead, "Master Tuoba Tianli is bald and lonely, and he is his brother."

I just don't know if it's a half-brother or a half-brother.

Anyway, the goddess said that Tuoba Liwei's adult is a bald-haired and lonely adult.

"So Tuoba Tianli should be called Uncle Tuoba Liwei, brother Tuoba Desert Khan."

After straightening out these relationships, and finally remembering all the conversations with Tuoba Desert Khan at that time, Feng Da Sima continued:

"At that time, I met Tuoba Desert Khan in Pingcheng, and I was also very surprised, because Suotou gathered in the Changchuan area, which is the northernmost part of Monan."

Speaking of this, Feng Da Sima looked at General Guan: "I didn't expect him to come to Pingcheng, and he is still a big man representing Suotou as an envoy."

"What?"

Feng Da Sima let out a heavy breath:

"They said that as long as the big man is willing to admit that Suotou is the master of the grassland, Tuoba Xianbei is willing to be the vassal of the big man and pay tribute every year."

When General Guan heard this, a disapproving look appeared on his face:

The grassland is also owned by the big man, so why should Tuoba Xianbei be the owner of the grassland?

"Also, they also promised that, as a show of sincerity, they are willing to imitate the old story of the Southern Huns, obey the call of the big man, and send out warriors from the clan to help the big man put down the chaos and wipe out the thieves."

"ah?"

When General Guan heard this, he became a little confused:

"The more I can't hear it, the more I don't understand. Isn't this Suotou a person with a goddess? And the goddess is at the gate of the mountain, and she has a grudge with Alang, so why is Suotou still willing to send troops to help the big man?"

Feng Da Sima shook his head:

"So I didn't take Tuoba Desert Khan's words seriously."

"Because if what he promised is true, it means he doesn't know anything at all, and he can't decide anything."

"If what he promised is false, there is no need to discuss it."

Feng Da Sima sighed:

"According to my plan, I also wanted to catch big fish with a long line to see if I could catch the person behind him, but I didn't know that something happened to the Governor's Mansion in Hedong."

"In addition, Tuoba Desert Khan left in a hurry after I left Pingcheng, and there is no news from behind."

After the incident of the Governor's Mansion in Hedong, the battle of Shangdang followed closely. He was so busy, how could he care about those barbarians?

There is no news about Tuoba Desert Khan.

So this matter was just left behind by Feng Da Sima.

Now that Liu Hun was ambushed, and this matter involved the Eastern Xianbei, Feng Da Sima remembered that he seemed to have missed an important chess piece on the grassland.

The eastern Xianbei had put up such a big fight in the north of Youzhou, and it was definitely impossible to bypass the most powerful Suotou.

I just don't know, Suotou finally felt that he had accumulated enough strength, and planned to go south to take advantage of the troubled waters.

Or is this just a normal transaction behavior?

This made Feng Da Sima a little vigilant.

Anyone can see that there is bound to be a big battle between the Han and Wei Dynasties in Hebei.

And this war can happen at any time.

The later the time, the greater the probability of triggering.

This is a battle that determines the fate of the Wei Kingdom.

But at this time, a wave of more than 100,000 control stringers appeared in the north, which was enough to cause unpredictable changes on the battlefield.
