Chapter 133 The Army Departs ([-] chapters for subscription)
Early in the morning of the second day, the army began to move out, and the prisoners also began to move.

Fifty guides led more than 5000 Han Chinese and nearly [-] captives, driving a large herd of cattle and sheep, and began to move southeast.

After reaching the empty southeast area directly from here, you will turn directly and go south to Dahan.

Huo Shan said that he would not send anyone, but after they set off, Huo Shan still sent a hundred Wuhuan to follow.

Who knows if there are any bad types among the more than 5000 Han Chinese?

After the captives set off, the army also started to set off.

More than 3000, nearly 4000 people were divided into six divisions, front and rear, left and right, one division around the first and second battalions, and two divisions around the first and second battalions.

In addition, Wuhuanyi led by Yijili opened the way from the front.

All the newly recruited troops were thrown into chaos, mixed in with Xiongnu Yicong and Wuhuan Yicong, and while they were on their way, the old people around them gave them ideological education.

They are all one man and two horses, and then they are empty, without weapons, without armor, and they will be gathered together when they rest at night, so that they will not have the opportunity to rebel.

.........

The army swaggered towards the north, while Huo Shan was holding a map and looking at it, Zhao Puonu ran up to him.

"My lord, just now Ululi came to me and wanted his two sons to go back to Han together!"

Huo Shan glanced at Zhao Ponu:

"Do you think I'll be right?"

Zhao Ponu giggled:
"I don't think so, so I declined."

Huo Shan nodded:
"It's good enough to let his wife and daughter go back. It's impossible for my son, so don't let him think too much. As long as he is in my Yulin army, I, Huo Shan, can guarantee that he will be fine."

Zhao Ponu had a good time:
"Daughter-in-law, my lord, are these the names you learned from?"

Huo Shan glanced at him and ignored him, continued to look at the map, and after studying for a while, he ordered without looking up:
"Sun Shang, send someone to the front to find Zhao Chongguo and a Sima from the second and fourth companies."

"promise."

If Huo Shan remembers correctly, these two are the heirs of the two captains of Beidi, and they will follow Beidi's arrangement first, and put the others behind.

After a while, the three of them came, and Huo Shan began to arrange:
"There is a tribe sixty miles ahead on the right, and there is another tribe thirty miles to the north of this tribe. Both are two small tribes under the banner of King Zuoguli. You two bring your own soldiers and horses and a thousand Hun slaves to me. Exterminate."

"The last general takes orders."

"Let the Huns charge, Habayashi cannot be damaged any more.

All the adult men of the tribe were beheaded, the cattle and sheep were picked and brought back, and the horses were brought back. The tents were set on fire, don't burn the grasslands, women and children don't need to worry about it, as long as they don't die of hunger.

The Huns will accept it for us in the future, and we will come to pick it up in the future! "

"promise."

The two ran away happily, and Huo Shan looked at Zhao Chongguo again:
"Watch out, don't get lost, and don't get into trouble."

"promise."

"Go!"

In fact, this method of confronting the enemy is the correct one. Huo Shan's withdrawal of troops is not advisable in this era and cannot be controlled.

Even if it was Huo Qubing, if he surrendered, it would be for the Cheng tribe, and it would only be for the big tribe.

When you encounter small tribes, you always sweep them in this way. The kind-hearted ones keep women and children, and some food and drink. Usually, after killing men, no cattle, sheep or horses are left, which is basically equivalent to death.

If you have a dark heart, you can kill them all, and you can't tell the difference between the ears of men, women, and old people. It's all military merit.

This is a death feud. If you Huns don’t cry, then I, a big Han, will have to cry. Who cares whether your Huns die or not. This is war, not just playing games.

.........

For the next three days, the army marched all the way north, sometimes taking a slight detour and following the water source.

Two days ago, four small tribes and one medium-sized tribe were wiped out in the territory of Zuogu Liwang Grassland, and after leaving the Zuogu Liwang pasture, it was an empty piece of saline-alkali land!

As for why the two tribes in the northeast and southwest were not destroyed, in a word, there is no time.

With this fat piece of meat left by King Zuoxian, who would care about these two chicken bones!
Leaving the Zuogu Liwangbu Grassland, a saline-alkali land with a width of [-] li, the whole army moved quickly and passed the saline-alkali land in more than half a day.

When the army encounters saline-alkali land, it has to pass quickly and cannot stay.

On the one hand, there is basically no water in the saline-alkali land, and the water is not drinkable.

On the other hand, the saline-alkali people can hurt people when they walk on it, not to mention the horny horseshoes.

If you keep walking, it will take less than five days for the horse's hooves to become limp and rotten.

After leaving the saline-alkali land, the whole army found several rivers and cleaned the horseshoes well, but not one river was enough to wash them.

And when Huo Shan led the army to walk in the saline-alkali land, his second battle report also arrived in Chang'an.

The result can be imagined, the whole Chang'an was boiling, even more exaggerated than last time.

The lively atmosphere last time hadn't passed yet, and this time it happened again. When the two were superimposed, it would be like the thunder from the sky and the fire from the ground, how exaggerated.

The firecrackers in Chang'an were sold out, and some merchants even gave them away for free. The wine stations and restaurants in Chang'an were all free.

There is no way, someone is free, you have to follow, if you don't follow, you will be poked in the back.

What should I do when I run out of wine?
It's okay. I have it at home. Bring everyone to drink together.

What should I do if I run out of drinks at home?
Da Nong and Shao Fu are selling at the cost price of the two major government offices, which made me excited!

Moreover, the people gathered on the street and refused to go home, so Liu Che made an exception and imposed a curfew overnight, which was something that Huo Qubing had never enforced when he returned from victory.

Except for the palace gates and city gates that cannot be opened, all the squares and lis are not closed, and you don't care about walking on the street, you can walk as you please.

The whole of Chang'an can be said to be lively all night.

And who is Quan Changan the happiest?That is of course our Majesty.

A banquet was held in the front hall of Weiyang Palace, and Liu Che even shouted when he was drunk:
"I want to give Zihou a king, I want to give each of the Yulin Army a lord, and I want to make him a three thousand lord!"

Of course, this is just a drunken remark, and no one takes it seriously.

Even if he was crowned king, Huo Shan would not dare to take it.

It is not allowed to be crowned king unless it is the Liu family, that is the precept of the great Han ancestors, and it cannot be violated.

And if Huo Shan knew that when he was bitterly planning for the [-] princes, Liu Che would seal [-] princes, and he didn't know whether he should cry or laugh!
.........

After leaving the saline-alkali land and walking a hundred miles northward, according to King Zuo Guli and a few people under his command, he was considered to have stepped into the sphere of influence of King Zuo Xian.

King Zuoxian's territory is not as big as that of King Zuoguli, but the pastures in King Zuoxian's territory are much more fertile than that of King Zuoguli.

Especially along the Gonglu River, I don't know how many cattle and sheep have been raised!

And the army is almost five hundred miles away from the shore of Gonglu River.
