People in the Eastern Han Dynasty, Hu and Han respected together

Chapter 179
There are four counties in Hexi, Wuwei, Zhangye, Jiuquan, and Dunhuang. If you count the two vassal states, Zhangye is a state and Juyan is a state, there are nearly 40 cities.

Their Li family is not the Yuan family, and there are no disciples and old officials throughout the world. If they want to really occupy a place, they can only send troops to seize it.

If the cities are pulled out one by one, it will take a lot of time and cause a lot of casualties, which is not worth the candle.

Surrender is acceptable, but military power, political power, financial power, and the three major powers must take part of them, otherwise they can surrender at will, and then they can betray at will.

With one plan, Li Yao can be compared to thousands of troops!

On the fifth day of July, the sun is very good, the breeze is blowing, neither hot nor cold, suitable for expeditions!

To the north of Lingju, 10,000 cavalry have assembled, but if you count the flags, you will find that there are at least [-]+ troops.

Tens of thousands of people, boundless.

Whether it is 5 people or 10 people, it is impossible to count clearly by counting the heads, and the best way is to count the flags.

However, if you want to carry more flags, you can carry more, and if you want to carry less, you can carry less. Increasing or reducing flags reasonably is also a strategy of war.

Li Wenhou came on horseback, and he was followed by senior military officers. They gradually walked to the front of the army formation, facing the gaze of tens of thousands of people, they all held their heads high and their chests held high without any pressure.

Military missions have already been arranged, and there is no need for speeches at this time. Three years of training and three years of kindness, their morale is quite strong, and they only need to give an order, and they will turn into tigers and wolves.

Li Wenhou nodded in satisfaction, and immediately shouted loudly:
"The army is leaving!"

Hey!Hey!Hey!
flap!flap!flap!

Dozens of eagle birds quickly rose into the sky. They came from all directions in the army, mainly from the left and right cavalry.

Ow!Ow!Ow!
Mastiffs are also in the army, and they will follow. They are mainly responsible for tracking the enemy, and they can also be used for combat.

There are eagles in the sky and mastiffs on the ground. No one can escape detection and tracking. I want 5 people to be comparable to 10 people, completely blockade the four counties in Hexi, and turn the city into an isolated city.

Naturally, we have to be prepared, and this time we will definitely go deep into the grasslands. Zhangye is a country and Juyan is a country. There are many Hu people, Xiongnu tribes, Xianbei tribes, Zahu tribes, and Hu people in the Western Regions.

In the future, the Gaoche tribe and the Chile tribe will eventually merge into one through fighting, and just a hundred years later, some of them went to the Central Plains, and evolved into more tribes, until they were completely Sinicized.

After going deep into the grassland, if you want to find water sources and look for herdsmen's livestock, these eagles, birds and mastiffs can be of great use.

Boo!Boo!Boo!
The left and right cavalry set off first, and the sound of horseshoes changed from calm to rapid. They acted in units of thousands of people.

If it was scattered to this extent a few years ago, it would be very difficult to get it back.

But now, because they get along day and night and have undergone a lot of training, their military literacy has improved significantly, and they are fully capable of undertaking this kind of combat mission.

As the smoke rose into the sky, at least [-] cavalry scattered out. They were divided into [-] groups, and they would weave into a big net according to the original plan, completely sealing off the entire Wuwei.

In the end, Li Wenhou personally led the army, but in fact there were only [-] followers left. Their goal was very clear, and they went straight to Guzang, the governor of Wuwei County.

The entire Hexi Corridor is almost flat, without any dangerous terrain, suitable for cavalry to gallop freely. The many cities standing inside are like bright lights in the dark, guiding them to find the past.

After a day, it's the next day!

In the entire territory of Wuwei, from the officials to the common people, they all found tens of thousands of cavalry galloping past near the city.

Guzang, Wuwei, Xuanwei, Xiutu, Luanniao, Yuyin... none of the more than a dozen cities fell, and cavalry were all around the cities, and they had already surrounded them.

The county wanted to ask the county for help, and the county also wanted to mobilize the county to help, but the messenger they sent out was like a bug stuck to a spider web, and was eaten up without the slightest resistance.

Now they all understood that the city where they were now had become an isolated city, there would be no reinforcements, and they could only save themselves, but morale had fallen to the bottom, and fear was spreading in the city.

After all, there are only 1000 cavalrymen outside the city, and they will carry the banner of 3000 people, making it difficult to judge how many enemy troops there are.

In the end, a piece of news swept across Wuwei!
Li Wenhou of Jincheng personally led an army of [-], and went all the way north to capture Wuwei.

If it was someone else who came, they might not believe it, but it was Li Wenhou who came, and they already believed it.

Because Li Wenhou had done this kind of thing, led an army of 10,000+, entered Guanzhong, surrounded Chang'an, and finally the court wanted to appease him. In order to allow him to retreat, he was made the prefect of Jincheng.

The name of a man, the shadow of a tree.

There are also tens of thousands of cavalry outside the city, no matter the officials or the common people, they all believed it, and they felt panic all day long. It’s not that no one wants to resist, but more people are already thinking about how to surrender to save their own wealth and the lives of their families...

And at this time, Wuwei Guzang!
Huang Jun smashed all the things that could be smashed, and he shouted excitedly:

"One hundred thousand troops, where did the one hundred thousand troops come from..."

While roaring, his expression became more and more excited, and finally he shouted in grief and indignation:
"This Li Wenhou who killed a thousand swords, I didn't even want to beat him, he actually wanted to come over and beat me, no, he has already brought someone over to beat me!"

Huang Jun, the prefect of Wuwei, was originally a few years ago, when the Yellow Turban Uprising broke out, he searched for anti-rebellion supplies and arrested the anti-rebellion strong men.

But not long after, the Liangzhou rebellion broke out directly. Li Wenhou, together with Beigong Boyu, arrested Chen Yi, Ling Zheng, and summoned the chiefs of Di and Qiang.

Now that the imperial court wants to take care of the head, it can no longer take care of the back, and passively chooses to abandon Liangzhou. Huang Jun muddles through smoothly and continues to be the prefect of Wuwei until today.

But this time he couldn't get away with it, because on the third day after the troops were dispatched, the army had already arrived in Guzang.

Smoke and dust billowing, horseshoes bursting!
Countless cavalrymen gradually emerged from the smoke and dust. Tall war horses and majestic soldiers, these thousands of elite cavalry, appeared directly in the sight of the defenders, and also appeared in Huang Jun's sight.

Soft!

Huang Jun's legs were so weak!

Now Guzang has become an isolated city, with less than ten thousand people and less than one thousand soldiers, how can it resist an army of one hundred thousand, how can it resist this iron cavalry!
