Han Dao world

Chapter 323
Some people are happy, others are worried.

Lu Bu suddenly discovered that not only did he have a bright future ahead of him, but he also had a lot of trouble.

The first is the blood feud between him and the Xiliang people.

Among the Xiliang people are not only Han Sui and Ma Teng, but also a large number of Dong Zhuo's former followers.

Those people were not in front of him, and he didn't think about it for a moment.After being reminded by Zhang Liao, he realized that Dong Zhuo's shadow had not disappeared with Li Jue and Guo Si, and was still entrenched in the court.

If you don't have the strength to protect yourself, you may be backstabbed by them at any time.

Fortunately, the emperor scattered them to Nanyang, Shangdang, and Hedong counties, and did not take them with him.

There is only one Zhang Xiu beside the emperor.

Lu Bu realized that perhaps he should also send someone to the emperor's side, as his eyes and ears.

He thought of Wei Xu's suggestion, a little moved, but also a little worried.

Cai Yan can be Ling Shi, so her daughter Lu Xiaohuan can naturally be Lang.

But his daughter is too young, whether he can take on this important task, he is not sure.

Maybe Chen Gong should teach his daughter to read first.

Lu Bu was uneasy and thought a lot, but couldn't make a decision.

But he realized one thing: Zhang Liao was very important to him, and he could provide him with help that Wei Xu and others could not.

Lu Bu quietly looked at Zhang Liao, considering whether he should show it.

The most direct expression is naturally to reuse Zhang Liao and equip more troops.

"Wen Yuan, you get along very well with those Huns."

Zhang Liao bowed to salute. "The main reason is that the court's system is appropriate, and those Huns are sincere and willing to serve."

Lu Bu nodded in agreement.Not to mention the Huns, even he finds the emperor's system very attractive.

Once upon a time, the inward migration of children from border counties was always prohibited by the imperial court.Zhang Huan made great contributions, and was allowed by the emperor to move from Dunhuang to Hongnong.

If you can move to the inner county after five years of allegiance, everyone in Bingliang will flock to him.

But at this moment, Lu Bu is not concerned about this issue. "Then assign all the Huns to your command."

Zhang Liao froze for a moment, looked at Lu Bu, somewhat surprised.

Lu Bu is not someone who easily delegates power, especially someone like him who is not a close friend of Lu Bu.The most typical one is Gao Shun.During the battle, Lu Bu would let Gao Shun command the troops, but in normal times he would take back the military power to prevent Gao Shun from becoming powerful.

That is to say, Gao Shun has such a good temper, and it would always turn his face against another person.

Lu Bu is now entrusting himself with troops, perhaps because the two hundred Huns were not his subordinates.

Zhang Liao didn't say much, and bowed to accept the order.

The emotions of Wei Xu and the others were also a little strange, and there was a little more jealousy in their eyes.

Liu Xie marched along the river. At the southern foot of Mona Mountain, which was still [-] miles away from Chengyi, scouts came to report, and scattered Xianbei cavalry appeared in front of them.

Liu Xie had analyzed a similar situation with Xun You before, and officers above Qu Junhou had received relevant instructions, and even the Huns who were semi-independent of the Han army's command system had received relevant orders, so they did not panic .

Qubei, who was at the forefront, gathered the team while sending back the news, keeping a safe distance from the Xianbei people.

The Xianbei were once vassals of the Huns.After Tan Shihuai, the strength of the Xianbei people increased greatly, and their morale also increased. Today's Huns are no longer opponents.Unless it is absolutely necessary, he does not want to fight the Xianbei people.

Liu Xie ordered the whole army to stop advancing and seize favorable terrain.

Habayashi stood on the foot of the hillside, ready to attack.

The armored rider hides behind the Habayashi riding formation, the knight dismounts, and two people work together to put on the armor, and drive the spare horses to the rear of the formation for unified management.

Wang Fu led his troops in the rear to catch up and set up an array along the river to protect the flanks.

Song Guo climbed up the hillside with Huben, put a few horses on the high place, and set up a few desks, which can be regarded as a general's platform.

Liu Xie sat down in front of the case, took off his combat boots, pulled up his wrinkled foot clothes, and tied them tightly again.

The leather of the combat boots is very hard, without the protection of the footwear, it is easy to wear and tear the feet.

Cai Yan, Pei Jun and others on the side were busy preparing their pens and ink, deliberately not looking at Liu Xie.

The dignified son of heaven, they are so reckless, they really can't see it.

On the other hand, Yang Xiu was very calm, took a look, took out a pair of thick woolen footwear from his arms, and handed them to Liu Xie.

"Your Majesty, use this. It keeps you warm, absorbs sweat, and doesn't stink your feet."

Liu Xie glanced at him, took it over, and smelled it. "Have you worn it?"

"I just wore it once." Yang Xiu said: "General Zhengxi gave it to him. He said it was the handicraft of the Qiang people. The Qiang women with the most skillful hands use the best wool and weave a pair in one winter. Seeing that my feet are cold, I couldn't bear the cold, so I gave me two pairs."

Liu Xie changed into a woolen overcoat and combat boots, and stomped his feet, feeling that Yang Xiu's words were true.Although these wool socks are not delicate in shape, they are really warm.

"Go back and talk to General Zhengxi, see if we can organize Qiang women to open a workshop, and find a few more Qiang women to weave this kind of footwear for the lieutenant generals."

Ma Chao on the side thought that Yang Xiu was troublesome, so he turned the gift given to him into a tribute, which caused Liangzhou to lose for nothing.Later, when I heard that the emperor was going to set up a workshop and use this kind of footwear as a military supply, I was immediately excited.

Tens of thousands of generals in the army, two pairs a year, that is hundreds of thousands of pairs, can make a lot of money.

"Your Majesty, the cost of these footwear is very high, more than ten times that of ordinary footwear." Ma Chao reminded.

"No matter how high the cost is, can it be worth more than the soldiers' feet?" Liu Xie said: "You have been in the army for a long time, and you should know how many soldiers in the army have frostbitten feet. Frozen feet will not only affect the battle, but also affect their lives in the future. .”

"Your Majesty is wise." Ma Chao smiled, but felt a little regretful.

Just now I still said less, it should be said dozens of times.

While chatting, the sound of the horn in front was getting closer and more urgent.

Liu Xie looked up.

The people who go to lowliness have retreated.The Huns rode their horses and galloped, while turning around and shooting, blocking the approaching Xianbei.With the help of stirrups, most of the Hun knights were able to turn around and shoot, and the accuracy was also improved a lot.

The Xianbei must have suffered a lot and did not dare to chase too close, so the Huns retreated calmly, passed in front of Wang Fu's position, and regrouped on the east side of the formation.

Hu Chuquan led two guard knights, passed through the main formation, came to the foot of the mountain, threw his stirrup off his horse, and trotted up the mountain.

"Your Majesty, it is Fu Luohan's subordinates who are here. Fu Luohan himself is under Chengyi City, and he may want to attack the city."

"Where did the news come from?"

"I caught two Xianbei scouts before, so I found out." Hu Chuquan took the water bag and took two sips of light wine. "Fuluohan gathered more than [-] people, and even brought supplies. It seems that he is determined to win Chengyi."

Liu Xie frowned slightly.

Fu Luohan brought over the supplies, wouldn't Lu Bu want to miss out?
Xun You asked timely: "Do the Xianbei often attack the city?"

"Very little." Hu Chuquan shook his head. "I also find it very strange. I came here to report to His Majesty and draw His Majesty's attention."

"Did Baimatong follow?"

"I haven't heard of it, it seems to be still in Xi'an Yang."

Xun You quickly found the location of Xi'an Yang on the map and tapped it with his finger. "Your Majesty, this is a good opportunity to feintly attack Baimatong and ambush Fu Luohan."

Before Liu Xie could speak, Ma Chao laughed first.

"Servant, Fuluohan is right in front of you, but Baimatong is fifty miles to the west. If you don't repel Fuluohan, how can you pretend to attack Baimatong?"
