Three Kingdoms: Become the Han Dynasty Royal at the Start!

231: Swept across Bingzhou, people panic!

The first year of Chuping, the end of May.

Liu He's army captured Shanwu, and after more than 10 days of cleaning, the rebels of the Hu people in Yanmen County were completely swept away.

Since then, the number of cavalry under Liu He has greatly increased, and the number of Hu Renyi soldiers has increased to more than 20,000.

Even minus the cavalry under Zhao Yun and Taishi Ci, the total number of cavalry under Liu He has exceeded 70,000.

When cleaning up the rebels in the county, Tian Feng was also counting the surviving population of Yanmen County.

In the end, the results of the statistics made everyone who heard it angry.

As of the first year of Chuping, that is, in early June of 190, the total population of the entire Yanmen County was only more than 25,000.

Most of them are young and middle-aged men, less than a quarter of women, and the old and weak are negligible!

When the Eastern Han Dynasty was at its peak, the population of the whole country exceeded 50 million.

Even in a border county like Yanmen County, the population has been kept at about 100,000 because of the continuous enrichment of the population since Emperor Wu of the Western Han Dynasty.

Today, there are only more than 20,000 mouths left!

In contrast, it is the explosive growth of the Hu population.

In just one county of Yanmen, the scattered tribes of Wuhuan and Huns who surrendered and were captured have a combined population of nearly 80,000!

This is also under the premise that Zhao Yun and others treated the Hu people without mercy and slaughtered several tribes!

Even in the early years of the Western Han Dynasty, when the Huns were the most powerful, the population of the Hu people had never experienced such an exaggerated growth!

If you think about it with your toes, you can know that the prosperity of the Hu people is all based on the hardships of the Han people.

After the statistical results came out, from Liu He to ordinary soldiers, they all wanted to slaughter the Hu people to pay homage to the suffering of the Han people.

But it is not yet time to settle down and rectify the internal affairs, Liu He left more than 20,000 Youzhou infantry to the newly appointed Yanmen prefect Yan Liang, joined the army with 5,000 Hu people righteously, and left Shen Pei as Yan Liang's partner.

Yan Liang, as the prefect of Yanmen, was reported to the imperial court together with his general number. He received a letter from Youzhou a few days ago, and the emperor has agreed. The imperial edict and official seal are on the way.

For the sake of stabilizing Yanmen, even if Yan Liang himself was reluctant, Liu He still decided to let him take office immediately.

In addition to the soldiers, horses and scribes, Zhang Shun, who originally belonged to Yan Liang's command, was also left behind, but of course the Han Wu soldiers and the Beiwei Army could not stay in Yanmen to waste.

The current Yanmen has been attacked by Zhao Yun and Taishi Ci's cavalry from south to north, and the Hu tribes were all terrified.

With the abilities of Yan Liang and Shen Pei, they left behind more than 20,000 Han infantrymen and more than 5,000 Hu people's righteous cavalry, which was enough for them to clean up the situation.

Out of prudence, Liu He recruited all the young and strong men of the surrendered Hu tribe, and let them bring their own horses and swords to fight with the army, leaving only the old and the weak, women and children to stay at Yanmen.

In the Hu tribe, as long as a man taller than a wheel can mount a horse to fight.

In this way, even excluding the troops who stayed at Yanmen, the number of troops under Liu He almost doubled.

Among them, there were only 4,000 Han Wu soldiers left; more than 8,000 Beiwei Army; more than 10,000 local infantry in Youzhou; and the strong crossbow battalion with almost no damage.

The main thing to strengthen was the cavalry. Zhao Yun's Youzhou cavalry only injured more than a thousand people, and Taishi Ci's original Liangzhou cavalry suffered more casualties, and there were still more than 15,000 people left.

In addition, more than 30,000 Hu people who were drawn into the army joined the army.

There are still more than 100,000 soldiers under Liu He who can continue to maneuver, and most of them are highly mobile cavalry!

The terrain of northern Bingzhou and Liangzhou is extremely favorable for cavalry combat!

After a short period of rectification, in early June, Liu He continued to march westward with his troops, trying to take the Yunzhong and Dingxiang counties occupied by the Southern Xiongnu in one go!

However, just after entering the territory of Dingxiang County, a group of unexpected troops unexpectedly appeared in front of the marching camp.

On June 5th, at noon, the commander-in-chief of the commander-in-chief of the town's western governor.

Liu He stared at the camp guard kneeling in front of him, his eyes bewildered: "What did you say, who will call the camp? 55

"Report to the governor, the person who came here claimed to be the messenger of the Xiongnu Shanyu, and I hope to see the governor!" The young guard did not understand his own governor's mood at all, and reported it in a straight-forward manner, "According to them, the Xiongnu Shanyu heard the governor came and hoped To be able to show obedience to the big man through you!

Not only Liu He, but also Zhao Yun and others were all at a loss.

Taishi Cihu stared: "What tricks are the Huns playing? Didn't they get the information a few days ago, saying that the Huns have already assembled in the clouds, waiting to fight to the death with our army?"

The guard is very innocent: "General, the villain is only responsible for spreading the word, and the rest doesn't know anything.

"However, there seems to be a Han man in the Huns' messenger team. But the distance is too far, and the man is wearing a straw hat, and the villain can't see his face.

Is there a Chinese man?

Liu He rolled his eyes and suddenly thought of something: "In that case, let them in first."

Soon, three people were brought to the handsome account.

Two of them were dressed as Hu people, and the third person was dressed in typical Chinese scholar's clothes, and his figure and posture were very familiar to everyone in the account.

Cheng Yu stood up in surprise: "Feng Xiao?!

The scribe put down his straw hat and slowly raised his head. Who was Guo Jia who was ordered to send an envoy to Xianbei more than half a month ago?

Guo Jia still had that frivolous smile, straightened his sleeves, and bowed to Liu He to the end: "Captain, Guo Jia is fortunate not to be humiliated! 99

Then he straightened up and handed over to Cheng Yu with a smile: "Brother Zhongde, it's been a long time.

There was an explosion of "coax—!" in the tent.

Zhao Yun took three steps and two steps to Guo Jia's side, looked up and down for a long time, and then heaved a sigh of relief: "It's great that you have returned safely, sir!"

The generals also swarmed up around Guo Jia, looking forward, back, left and right, tossing around with a small body, until it was confirmed that he was not injured.

The scribes had to be more reserved, but they also looked at everyone with a smile, and even the most disciplined Cheng Yu was not angry.

Liu He smiled onlookers and did not stop him.

Guo Jia is a condescending man, and he doesn't have the arrogance of the literati, and he doesn't look down on people because of the difference in IQ, so he has a good relationship with the generals.

In addition, this person is excellent in intelligence and intelligence, and his friendship with the scribes is also very good.

Even the most attentive Guo Tu has a good impression of this family.

Seeing that the person returned safely this time, it was not only Guo Jia's friend, Liu He also finally put his half-hanging heart back into his stomach.

Guo Jia is good-natured and patiently answering every question.

"Xianbei people are rude, but they are actually very good at talking. They will naturally believe whatever they say."35

"How can it be fake? If Guo Jia is not sure, how dare he travel thousands of miles to his death?"

"General Evil is still in the Huns' tent, rest assured, he is safe, the Huns will receive him as a guest!"

"The specific process will be explained by Guo Jia to the Governor.""
