The Yuan Family of the Three Kingdoms I call the shots

Chapter 244 Herding the sheep

As soon as Zhang Liao's words came out, everyone in the entire tent was a little stunned.Because although Xia Houshang was appointed by Cao Cao to be Cao Cao's subordinate, and Zhang Liao was his master and deputy, his surname was Xiahou after all, and he was related to Cao Cao himself, not to mention that his uncle Xia Houyuan was also here. Looking at the master, Zhang Liao's move was a bit extreme.

Xia Houshang thought that his words would definitely get the approval and permission of all the elders in the king's tent, but he never expected that what greeted him was a very thorough rebuttal from Zhang Liao, his boss. Sheng, coupled with his status as a relative of the Cao family, was upset, and opened his mouth to refute.

But before he could speak, Xia Houyuan suddenly raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder, slapping down what he wanted to say, then looked up at Zhang Liao quietly, and said, "Wen Yuan, Bo Renzhi Although the words are out of proportion, he is still young after all, and he speaks freely, so you don't have to be too stubborn, besides..."

Xia Houyuan pondered for a while, and said in a low voice: "Besides, his words are not completely unreasonable..."

"General Miaocai? Could it be that you also agree with this fallacy of blatantly disobeying the Lord's military order?" Zhang Liao closed his eyes and said bluntly.

Xia Houyuan didn't speak, but Xia Houshang couldn't help it anymore, and said, "General Zhang, I don't like what you said. What is a fallacy? This strategy is clearly a good strategy! It is for the sake of our army in the future. Great plan!"

"Hehe." Zhang Liao smiled lightly, and said, "If you want to do it, just do it, but please forgive me, Zhang Liao swears not to do such trivial things." After saying that, he turned around and was about to leave the king's account.

Xu Huang hurriedly dodged to stop Zhang Liao, and said with a wry smile, "Wen Yuan, everyone is just working for Sikong. Why is there a disagreement?"

Xia Houshang glanced at Zhang Liao's back with dissatisfaction, and muttered: "General Zhang guarantees Yuan Shang so much, maybe he has something to do with Hebei..."

"Bastard!" Before he finished speaking, Xia Houyuan shook his hand and gave Xia Houshang a big ear, and the violent voice resounded throughout the Wang Tent: "How dare Zhu Zi'an make such nonsense? General Zhang is your chief general, you How dare this kid commit the crime above, he deserves to be killed! He still hasn’t apologized to General Wen Yuan!”

"No need..." Zhang Liao glared at Xia Houshang coldly, then cupped his hands at Xia Houyuan, and said, "I'll go back and prepare the soldiers and horses first. Farewell!" After saying that, he turned and walked out of the handsome tent. Xu Huang couldn't stop him either.

Xia Houyuan stared at Zhang Liao's back for a long while, and finally heaved a long sigh. He raised his hand and nodded at Xia Houshang's stubborn face, then flicked his sleeves, and walked out of the tent, and went to chase Zhang Liao together with Xu Huang. .

Only Xia Houshang stood inside the king's tent, staring closely at Zhang Liao and the others who were walking out with dissatisfied eyes, clenched his fists unconsciously.

********************
Two flowers bloom, one branch each.

Not to mention the fall of the Southern Huns Royal Court, the capture of Youxian King Qubei, and the gap between Cao Jun who went to attack the rear of the Southern Huns Royal Court. Quan finally got specific information about the other party.

The scouts came to report that there were really only a few thousand soldiers and horses in the place, but it was the endless flocks of sheep, cattle and horses that stirred up dust in the field. Hu Chuquan and Zuo Xianwang were raped by the other side with a group of animals.

The two Xiongnu leaders sat in their seats, listening to the report of their subordinates in a daze. They didn't turn this corner for a long time. They didn't express their feelings until after a while, and each of them looked up to the sky and sighed deeply.

Hu Chuquan took a deep breath and sighed: "This group of hateful barbarians robbed so many cattle, sheep and horses, and blamed Ke Bineng, but now they use these cattle and sheep to fool us... ....It's too low, it's too low!"

King Zuo Xian also had an indignant expression on his face: "This gang of hateful barbarians, who dare not confront us head-on, actually use such despicable tricks to fool us, Shan Yu, this is simply fooling us both for fools! !"

When Hu Chuquan heard the words, his face was as silent as water.This Zuo Xianwang is really too bad at talking, the other party took us two for fools, and we both fell for it!Doesn't the extension of his words mean that the two of them are fools?
"King Zuoxian, it's not that this king is talking about you. What you said is neither adulterous nor stupid. It really has the demeanor of a king... It's not good for others to look down on us, let alone ourselves. You just said that If so, don’t you slap your own ears again?”

King Zuo Xian also came to his senses at this moment, smiled shamefully at Hu Chuquan, and said: "Don't blame Shanyu, it's my king's negligence in what he said."

Hu Chuquan nodded in satisfaction, and said: "It's okay, I need to encourage you in the future."

Zuo Xian Wang Weiwei said yes, and then suddenly changed the subject, saying: "Shan Yu! Now that we know the enemy's tricks and the actual number of troops, we might as well send troops to kill them tomorrow! There are only a few thousand people in the area. Everyone, if this king is in the front, he will be able to smash them all in half a day!"

Hu Chuquan thought for a while, nodded and said: "In this case, according to Zuo Xianwang's intention, tomorrow you will lead 1 people as the front, and this king will lead the rest of the troops to help you out, and destroy this barbarian army in one battle."

"Yes!"

*********************
The next day, the Xiongnu soldiers and horses were assembled immediately, with King Zuo Xian as the vanguard in the front, and Da Shan in Huchuquan to meet the rear of the palace, and marched mightily towards the camp that Yuan Shang and others had set up.

As soon as the soldiers and horses of the Xiongnu made a move, they were immediately discovered by the scouts and informed Yuan Shang. Yuan Shang had already made preparations, and hurriedly organized all the troops under his command, arranged in formation, and each had a division of labor, waiting for the Huns Horses flocked.

Looking at the billowing smoke and dust on the desert in the distance, Cao Zhi beside Yuan Shang could not help but tremble all over. He swallowed a mouthful of spit and said softly, "Brother Yuan, the Huns are coming here."

Yuan Shang nodded lightly, and said, "Mmm..."

"Will the plan you set up last night work? Why do I feel a little overwhelmed?" Cao Zhi's face turned pale, as if he was about to vomit.

"Who knows, in this world, there is no battle that must be won, and there is no gamble that must be lost. We have already set up a fragrant hook to catch the bait, but whether the big catfish that hangs will bite the hook or not is not something you and I can say Well, the counselors are human, and the success depends on the sky, everything depends on fate." Yuan Shang's tone was flat, but it was not difficult to hear that there was a trace of tension in it.

Cao Zhi sniffed lightly, and said in a low voice, "But, I'm afraid..."

"What are you afraid of?"

"I'm afraid what if the big catfish doesn't bite the hook and bites us?"

Yuan Shang sighed faintly, and said: "Xia Zi, you are so timid. Standing with me is completely two grades. I really can't say that I am with you. How can I describe it... I remember A few days ago, I told you a story about Yu Boya throwing the piano to thank bosom friend, right? Right now, I seem to be Yu Boya in this story."

Cao Zhi blinked and said, "What do you mean, you are Yu Boya, and I am like your bosom friend Zhong Ziqi?"

Yuan Shang shook his head and said, "No."

"Then what am I?"

"You are that broken Qin that Yu Boya threw on the ground and smashed to pieces."

Cao Zhi: "..."

On the opposite side of Motu, the Xiongnu soldiers and horses led by Zuo Xianwang began to gallop, galloping towards Yuan Shang and the others.

Yuan Shang closed his eyes and shouted to all the soldiers around him: "Get ready—!"

When the words fell, these soldiers drove the large flocks of sheep that Yuan Jun had seized from foreign races to the front of the formation during this period of time. These sheep were still tied with a lot of clothes, food, and supplies. It was Yuan Jun who stole it from various small tribes.

Yuan Shang's heart immediately rose to his throat, success or failure depends on whether the blow can succeed!

"Brothers, get ready, open the gate... let the dogs go!"

The soldiers who drove the sheep to the front of the battle were stunned when they heard the words, and looked up at Yuan Shang in puzzlement, as if they didn't understand the meaning of his words.

Yuan Shang hurriedly corrected the mistake: "I mean, open the gate and let the sheep go! Drive them all, let them go!"

"Crash-"

All the goat-driving soldiers raised their whips together, and saw the flocks of sheep loaded with supplies, like a white mist, running towards the Huns with "baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa"

The soldiers and horses of the Huns were rushing under the leadership of Zuo Xianwang, but they saw a large white flock of sheep suddenly appeared in front of them, and all the flocks were carrying a lot of supplies and luggage. All the soldiers stopped the horses, and looked at the flock of sheep running towards them in amazement, with greedy rays of light in their eyes for an instant.

"There is a door, there really is a door!" Seeing the Huns salivating over these flocks and supplies, Cao Zhi couldn't help waving his hands vigorously beside Yuan Shang excitedly, contrary to his timid look just now.

Yuan Shang also breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and said with a smile: "That is, a group of prairie bumpkins who have never seen much in the world. I, a large group of sheep carrying supplies, will drive him over, and I will not shake their dogs. Eye?"

When the words fell, many Xiongnu soldiers were already robbing the flock of clothes and supplies, including the sheep themselves, but it is no wonder that in the bitter cold desert, any supplies are extremely precious treasures for the grassland people , maybe one day it will be able to meet unexpected needs, if you don't grab it at this time, maybe it will be snatched up in a while!
"Stop, stop! Form an array, attack the enemy, attack the enemy!" King Zuo Xian roared loudly, but it was like a drop in the bucket, and it didn't have any effect at all.

It's no wonder that in the hearts of these Xiongnu warriors, the opponents are just thousands of people. After a while, they will be able to withdraw their troops. When there is a delay, it is more important to grab more supplies.

Seeing the chaotic situation of the Huns, Yuan Shang couldn't help but smile, and turned his head to shout to the soldiers behind him: "Brothers, the flocks have been released, now execute the second step of the plan...to put those Cattle and horses with swords on their bodies dare to come over!"

"promise!"
