The Mythical Version of the Three Kingdoms: The Evil God Arrives

Chapter 546 Hu Yanchu: Bad News Coming One After Another
The Northern Huns might surrender to the Parthian Roman Empire, but would never surrender to the Han Dynasty. So facing the demise of Qu Fu, the Northern Hun soldiers who followed Qu Fu southward launched a desperate charge against the Han army with the determination to die, and finally all followed Qu Fu to meet the God of Kunlun.

Those mixed Hu soldiers who followed the Northern Huns southward were repeatedly charged by the Han cavalry several times. After more than half of them died, they finally realized what they should do now.

They dismounted from their horses in a very embarrassed manner, dropped their weapons, surrendered to the Han army, and squatted tremblingly waiting for the Han army to deal with them. It is estimated that even if the Han army chopped them down with a knife, they would not dodge.

After all, the Zaohu, whose minds and wills were taken away by the Han army, had no time to avoid the Han army's attacks. Of course, if the Han army went too far and killed too many Zaohu, Zaohu would also rise up to resist the Han army. After all, they were all ethnic groups from East Asia, and there was a seed of rebellion buried deep in their hearts.

However, the Han Dynasty had been at the top for too long, and its moral constraints were still quite good. It would not do anything unnecessary to provoke the emotions of the surrendered barbarians.

Moreover, long before the war, Chen Xi had told them that if they encountered miscellaneous Hu people who wanted to surrender, they should spare their lives, as they would need their help when rebuilding the Han Dynasty later.

Zhang Xiu didn't understand why Chen Xi gave such an order, but as a soldier, Zhang Xiu would not object to the order given by his superiors. Since it said so and Chen Xi also gave the corresponding documents, Zhang Xiu would follow Chen Xi's orders even if he didn't understand.

After taking all the surrendered barbarians into custody, Zhang Xiu led his troops on a sweep northwards along the Yellow River. In addition to clearing out possible bandits, he also focused on sweeping out the defeated soldiers.

After all, the troops they led were Iron Cavalry and Qiang Cavalry, not the fast cavalry like the Baima Yicong. Facing so many cavalry, it would be very difficult to defeat them all.

Moreover, no one can guarantee that the troops that Qu Fu brought into Guanzhong are all of them. Perhaps Qu Fu still has troops left in Hedong County, Xihe County and Shang County. No one knows the specific situation.

As for questioning the captured miscellaneous Hu people... Zhang Xiu didn't think Qu Fu would tell these things to the miscellaneous Hu people. Maybe there were smart people among the miscellaneous Hu people who realized this, but Zhang Xiu didn't intend to find out the smart people among the miscellaneous Hu people, and he couldn't find them.

Under the current circumstances, it is unlikely that the smart people among the mixed Hu people will take the initiative to stand up and tell the Han army what they have seen and known. Smart people sometimes tend to think too much.

While Zhang Xiu was defeating the Northern Huns and other Hu allied forces marching northward along the river, Xu Rong also led his troops to defeat the Qiang allied forces. Later, he discovered that the Qiang allied forces only had 3,000 elite Northern Huns cavalry led by a few Northern Huns centurions.

In order to prevent the remnants of the Northern Huns from causing any trouble in Liangzhou after they moved north, Xu Rong led his troops to search the Qiang tribes in Liangzhou. If he saw any traces of the Northern Huns, he would immediately wipe out a certain Qiang tribe and move its people to Guanzhong, where Ma Teng would gather them. The Qiang people in Liangzhou would be robbed again, laying the foundation for subsequent plans.

Although the Qiang people in Liangzhou were angry at Xu Rong's behavior, Xu Rong's performance on the battlefield made them dare not show their anger and dissatisfaction, for fear that Xu Rong would use them as a sacrifice. At least they could save their lives by enduring, and the Han army also provided them with food, so they did not starve.

The Qiang people who died in Xu Rong's army on the battlefield died miserably. The Han army under Xu Rong's command was even more brutal. Although they were normal elite talents, they did not behave like normal elite talents, but rather like the elite talents used by Dou Xian.

The Qiang people of Liangzhou originally followed Dou Xian to carve the Yanran Stone, and many Qiang soldiers returned to the Qiang tribe. For some unknown reason, Dou Xian and the Han Dynasty did not take back the inheritance left by these soldiers in the Qiang tribe.

It is reasonable to suspect that this was one of the important reasons that led to the century-long Qiang Rebellion. Otherwise, why did the Qiang people act so... out of place among the mixed Hu people?
After Xu Rong had searched all the Qiang tribes in Liangzhou, he called Ma Teng and Han Sui over and asked them to lead troops to guard the areas around Sanguan, Longguan and Xiaoguan to prevent any accidents.

After defeating the Liangzhou Qiang coalition forces, Xu Rong led an army of 70,000 troops from Wuwei eastward along the Yellow River, then north along the Yellow River through Lingzhou, and finally entered the northern part of Shuofang County, blocking the Northern Huns' escape route to the west.

...

While Xu Rong was breaking the Northern Huns' conspiracy in Liangzhou, Zhao Yun and his White Horse Volunteers also appeared on the battlefield between the Han army and the Northern Huns.

At that time, the Bingzhou Army, led by Zhang Liao and Lu Bu, was engaged in daily attritional warfare with the Northern Xiongnu, and both sides were waiting for their respective reinforcements. The Northern Xiongnu were waiting for reinforcements from the northeast, while the Han Army was waiting for reinforcements from Liu Bei.

During this period, Hu Yanchu organized a major battle, trying to break through the Bingzhou army's front line and annihilate the 150,000 Han troops in Wuyuan County in one fell swoop. Unfortunately, he failed in the end, and Zhang Liao almost seized the opportunity to take away the central army.

If it weren't for Marquis Luandi who led his troops to forcibly stop Zhang Liao and the White Horse Volunteers, it is possible that Hu Yanchu would have died under the swords of the White Horse Volunteers this time.

At that time, Qiulinbei was leading two thousand Chanyu guards and three thousand Xiongnu guards, dragging the Xianzhen Camp led by Lu Bu and Gao Shun and five thousand wolf cavalry.

Xubu Cheng led 5,000 Xiongnu guards and commanded the miscellaneous Hu cavalry to attack the front of the Han army. The other northern Xiongnu internal qi left their bodies and led their troops to attack the left wing of the Han army, while the Dingling army attacked the right wing of the Han army alone.

Hu Yanchu led Luandi Hou to command the central army, which was basically the headquarters of the Northern Xiongnu and also the strongest point of the Hu coalition forces this time.

However, they could not withstand the terrifying mobility of Zhang Liao and the White Horse Volunteers, who went around and found the junction of the Northern Huns' central and rear armies. They seized the opportunity and attacked the Northern Huns' command center at a speed that the Northern Huns' commander could not react to.

Indeed, the Baima Yicong were not good at offensive operations, but no one could deny the terrifying killing power of the Baima Yicong when they entered the speed state. Combined with Zhang Liao's ability to identify opportunities and capture weaknesses, they directly penetrated every weakness in the Northern Huns' front line.

Under the command of Zhang Liao, the Baima Yicong did not need to face powerful armies that would slow down their speed. They only needed to break through the weaknesses or command nodes on a certain front, and then they would enter the route of harvesting the chaotic army that the Baima Yicong was best at.

The organic combination of Zhang Liao and the White Horse Volunteers gave the White Horse Volunteers a terrifying ability to penetrate the front line. The White Horse Volunteers were only a hundred meters away from Hu Yanchu at the closest time. If it weren't for Luandi Hou leading his troops to forcibly stop the White Horse Volunteers, the White Horse Volunteers would have slowed down...

Hu Yanchu was sweating profusely at that time. If Zhang Liao had not been busy fighting against Luandi Hou, he would definitely have led the white horse to charge.

Zhang Liao was so close to the Khan of the Northern Xiongnu that his will was boiling at its limit. His will, which was raised to its limit, made Zhang Liao's legion talents stronger than ever before, and even allowed the White Horse Volunteers to briefly gain the ability of super-speed regeneration. Although it was only low-level super-speed regeneration, it was still super-speed regeneration, which was something that many people would never be able to obtain.

Unfortunately, Zhang Liao was entangled by Luandi Hou and Xiongnu Qianzhang at that time, and did not notice Hu Yanchu's performance, otherwise Zhang Liao's will could even be pulled up to a higher level, and it is not impossible for his will to break through the realm. After all, the Xiongnu Chanyu was the long-cherished wish of the old Nie family for three hundred years.

...

Today, the Northern Huns are attacking the Han army camp again. The leader of the Northern Huns is Xubu Cheng, who has 3,000 Northern Huns and 30,000 miscellaneous Hu troops under his command. The Han army is facing Lu Bu and Zhang Liao. Gao Shun and Xianzhen Camp did not go to the battle. They have to beware of Qiulinbei and Chanyu's guards.

Xubu Cheng and several Northern Huns who used their internal Qi to leave their bodies blocked Lu Bu's attack with great difficulty. If it weren't for the tacit cooperation between Xubu Cheng and several passers-by who used their internal Qi to leave their bodies, plus the Qi and blood secret technique improved from the Central Asian secret technique, Xubu Cheng and others would not have been able to hold on for too long, even though Xubu Cheng had reached the limit of his internal Qi to leave his body.

Zhang Liao, on the other hand, was waiting for an opportunity on the periphery with 5,000 white horses, which brought great psychological pressure to the Northern Xiongnu generals who were in charge of the Zaohu. They were afraid that Zhang Liao would suddenly launch a straight charge and create a straight road of broken arms and limbs in the Zaohu's battle line.

The intensity of today's war is not very great, so the total number of troops deployed by both sides is roughly 50,000. The Han army dispatched 10,000 wolf cavalry and 5,000 white horses, while the Huns dispatched 3,000 Northern Huns headquarters and 30,000 elite cavalry of the miscellaneous Hu.

Relying on the terrifying deterrent power of the white horses on the mixed Hu people, Zhang Liao was able to target the enemy's 33,000 troops with only 15,000 soldiers. Unfortunately, the Northern Huns commander had no countermeasures yet.

If one wants to avoid being killed by Zhang Liao, unless there are more than 50,000 miscellaneous Hu people and the Northern Xiongnu headquarters can unify the miscellaneous Hu people with their will, they can effectively restrict Zhang Liao's white horse. Otherwise, there is no way to limit the speed of Zhang Liao's white horse.

Zhang Liao's white horse entered the speed state too quickly. Zhang Liao's white horse's first talent was still speed, but his second talent had become an extension of speed - controlling the wind. They wanted to use the power of the wind to realize their vision of flying.

At the same time, most of Zhang Liao's white horse soldiers have also mastered a no-start charge, which can allow Zhang Liao's white horse to burst out to a speedy state in a very short time.

However, if we want to mobilize enough troops to punish Zhang Liao Bai Ma, we really think that the hundreds of thousands of troops in the Han army camp are just decorations.

Therefore, before the arrival of Kunwan and Lan's reinforcements, even if Huyan Chu had a way to deal with Zhang Liao's white horse, he could only suppress his restlessness.

"Chanyu, something happened over there with Qufu!" Qiulinbei rushed into the big tent with anger and sadness, waking up Huyanchu who was in deep thought.

Hu Yanchu's heart skipped a beat, and an ominous premonition suddenly came to his mind. He asked hurriedly, "What happened?"

"The war eagle reported that Qu Fu died in Guanzhong." Qiu Linbei said with his head down. He did not expect that Qu Fu would die in Guanzhong.

Ming Ming Qu Fu followed the arrangement of the Chanyu and did not participate in the battle between the Qiang people in Liangzhou and the Han army. Instead, he went through Xihe and Hedong counties to enter Guanzhong. As a result, he encountered the elite of the Han army in front of Chang'an and was finally left there.

Upon hearing the news, Hu Yanchu felt a black screen in front of his eyes and the world was spinning. If Qiu Linbei had not been quick to support Hu Yanchu, Hu Yanchu would have definitely fallen headfirst, which would have triggered a series of reactions.

“Chanyu!?” Qiulinbei screamed and quickly injected his internal energy into Huyanchu’s body to stimulate Huyanchu’s vitality.

Hu Yanchu closed his eyes and remained silent for a long time before he broke free from Qiu Linbei's support. He pressed his forehead and said, "I'm fine. Let me first tell you what's going on with Qu Fu."

Qu Fu died, and Huyan Chu was very sad. Although he had long anticipated that they might die at the hands of the Han army, he really didn't expect it would happen so soon. They had only been at war with the Han for less than half a month, and as a result, a king died in Guanzhong.

The death of Qu Fu finally made Hu Yanchu realize that living had confirmed one thing: the Han Dynasty had the ability to shield his spiritual talents. Otherwise, according to the future he saw, even if Qu Fu could not reach Chang'an, he would come back alive.

As a result, Qu Fu died in Wannian County, right at the east gate of Chang'an.

Hu Yanchu didn't believe that there was no calculation by the Han Dynasty. He had now sorted out the cause and effect.

"Qu Fu led his troops from Hedong County into Zuofengyi without encountering any obstruction. However, near the ferry crossing of the Wei River, when he turned to the Weishui Sanqiao, he encountered 15,000 elite cavalrymen of the Han army.

Qu Fu fought with three Han generals who had awakened their legion talents. In the last battle with a Han general named Zhang Xiu, he and Zhang Xiu both broke through the limit of their internal energy leaving their bodies, and were later beaten to death by Zhang Xiu's fist. "Qiu Linbei seemed to be calm, but his clenched fist showed that Qiu Linbei was not calm in his heart.

"Beat him to death?" Hu Yanchu's face was as gloomy as water, and he looked at Qiulinbei with dim eyes. Are you sure there is nothing wrong with your expression?
After all, Qu Fu had broken through the limit of his internal energy leaving his body at the last moment. Even if the Han general named Zhang Xiu was a fierce general as fierce as Lu Bu, he wouldn't be able to beat Qu Fu to death, right?
"Chanyu, Qu Fu originally had a chance to come back, but Zhang Xiu started to humiliate our Great Xiongnu. Qu Fu turned around and burned everything he had, and fought a life-and-death battle with Zhang Xiu with bare hands. In the end, he died at the hands of Zhang Xiu, who was blessed with the will of a large army." Qiu Linbei lowered his head and handed the silk brought back by the war eagle to Huyan Chu.

Hu Yanchu breathed rapidly. He took the silk handed to him by Qiu Linbei and quickly glanced at the Chinese characters on it. The Chinese characters were very messy and it was obvious that they were written in an emergency.

However, from the disorganized words, Hu Yanchu still captured what the recorder wanted to express, which was similar to what was said on the Qiulin Stele, except that the Qiulin Stele did not finish some details.

Huyanchu closed his eyes and dropped his hands weakly. The silk slipped from his fingertips. For a moment, the only sound in the tent was Huyanchu's rapid breathing. Qiu Linbei looked down at the falling silk.

"Report, a white cavalry corps suspected to be the White Horse Volunteers is coming from the direction of Yunzhong!" The messenger rushed in from outside the tent.
