Chapter 177 Advance Northward and Eastward
The war is about to begin, and everyone is busy in all aspects.
After receiving the order from Zheng Yu, Tadun and Yan Rou immediately sent troops to the Xianbei tribe. Among them, Tadun led a cavalry force of 10,000 people, mainly Wuhuan people, and began to advance rapidly to the north. The goal was to quickly seize the troops entrenched in Wuhuan. The Xianbei Suli tribe on the Maruyama line and Yan Rou attacked northeast, occupied the Yuwen Mohuai tribe's nest near the Goguryeo line and moved all their subordinates and tribesmen to Wuhuan territory.
After receiving the order, the two armies marched non-stop and moved very quickly, as if they were entering uninhabited territory.
Two days later, they occupied their tribal capitals respectively, and then gathered their tribesmen to migrate to Wuhuan. At first, these Xianbei people were extremely nervous and panicked, but the Zheng family army had strict discipline and made it clear that as long as they obeyed the orders, everyone's personal life and property would be safe. Security is guaranteed and no infringement will be allowed. Anyone who dares to report or resist will be killed without mercy.
Most of these tribesmen were old, weak and women. They were defenseless against the army. However, Su Li and Yuwen Mohuai's mansions were guarded. However, in the face of the powerful offensive, they were quickly and completely disarmed. In the end, only a few resisters were eliminated. Except for those, all surrendered.
This battle went extremely smoothly and was a fruitful success. Except for the chiefs and common people, the ordinary people did not move at all, but the obedient chiefs and common people were also treated properly. Then came the large-scale migration, because they were well prepared in advance. , although there was some resistance, the migration was still progressing smoothly. In addition, these nomadic people did not have much property. Most of them were horses, cattle and sheep, all four-legged animals, and they moved south very quickly.
Soon, Zheng Yu received a reward in Liucheng, saying that his goal was achieved and progress was going smoothly.
Taishi Ci and Zhao Yun also returned to their respective posts. Both armies were waiting in the eastern border area. Among them, Taishi Ci led 40,000 infantry and cavalry and began to dispatch, inserting directly into the rear of the Xianbei coalition within hundreds of miles, while one covered Yan Rou and Taton. The flanks are safe, and the second is to cut off the supply line of the Xianbei Allied Forces, causing panic on the front line of the Xianbei Allied Forces.
Zhao Yun led 40,000 Chinese troops and was still waiting in the Liaodong border area.
Lu Ziqi came to report, saying that Xianbei's 60,000 main force surrounded Gongsun Du's 40,000 cavalry on the front line of Tucheng. There were constant attacks and defenses between the two sides, but the Liaodong Army was not in great danger. The depressions made it impossible for cavalry to use them, and they lacked siege equipment, so they faced many difficulties.
After hearing this, Zheng Yu immediately felt relieved. He was still in Liucheng, thinking that it would be more advantageous to wait until Xianbei and Gongsundu exhausted each other more before sending troops. However, he had already raided the nests of the two Xianbei tribes and occupied Xianbei. It was a storage and transportation place for the coalition forces' grain and grass supplies and cut off their supply lines. It was difficult to predict how the next battle would develop. He wanted to go to the front line as soon as possible, but something happened that forced him to stay in Liucheng for a day or two.
The reason is that the four Wuhuan masters, Wu Da, Su Buyan, Wu Yan and Nanlou, all wrote letters and sent messengers to Liucheng. On the one hand, they explained their current situation to Zheng Yu, and on the other hand, they entrusted everything in the family to Zheng Yu. Give it to Zheng Yu and ask him to treat his subordinates and clansmen well.
Zheng Yu thought to himself, this damn rule, how can you just give away your wives and concubines?
In addition, although the Su Buyan tribe was attacked by Xianbei, the tribal chiefs still ran fast, and most of them ran to Wuhuan territory. Among them, the Su Buyan family safely came to Liucheng to join Zheng Yu, and Lu Xian took the initiative to arrange for them. Luxurious mansions are all settled.
In the palace, Mrs. Su Buyan cried and complained about the evil done by the Xianbei people in their tribal territory, and asked Zheng Yu to send troops to drive the Xianbei out and restore their homeland. However, when Zheng Yu showed her the letter written by Su Buyan, At that time, Mrs. Su Buyan was still shocked. It turned out that Su Buyan had given her, her family's women, property, and servants to Zheng Yu.
"This, this," Mrs. Su Buyan was speechless. The only gratitude and love she had for Su Buyan in her heart completely disappeared. She understood that although she was beautiful, she was just a piece of cake in Su Buyan's heart. It's just a delicate item, so I can't say it anymore if I want to plead for Su Buyan and the tribe.
She raised her head and glanced at Zheng Yu, then lowered her head with a red face.
Song Ji comforted her and said: "My husband-in-law has decided to send troops to Liaodong, and he will definitely pay off the blood debt for everyone. But madam, you and your family can stay in Liucheng. My husband-in-law will take good care of you. Besides, your master and my husband-in-law are brothers." , her women are equal to my women,”
Mrs. Su Buyan sighed, "Forget it, I won't say anything anymore. Don't call me Mrs. Su Buyan from now on. I can't afford it." After saying that, she couldn't help but shed two drops of tears.
Seeing that Song Ji was talking more and more outrageously, Zheng Yu quickly stopped him, "Don't talk nonsense, I will treat their family well." Although this lady was only twenty-four or five years old and was the most beautiful in the tribe in terms of body and appearance, he was not I didn't pay too much attention to it, thinking that I already had enough women in my family.
After the meeting, Lu Xian was responsible for arranging them, and decided to move Nanlou and Wuyan's families to Liucheng to settle down. Tian Chou sent people to take over the political power of several other tribes. Song Ji decided to fund the three tribes in Liucheng with the royal family's funds. Your family built a big mansion to settle down.
In this way, Wuhuan actually completed its unification.
Tian Chou demarcated the existing Wuhuan territory, as well as part of Xianbei and Youbeiping in the south, part of Changli and part of Liaodong, as the territory of Wuhuan State, covering an area of more than several Qingzhous. At the same time, he appointed a large number of Han officials and a small number of Wuhuan officials. It was ruled by Huan officials.
The situation developed faster than expected, which made Zheng Yu, Song Ji, Tian Chou and others very happy.
In addition, the two migrating Xianbei tribes were integrated into the Wuhuan tribes, and the regions were designated for unified management. In this way, Wuhuan became a place where Wuhuan, Xianbei and Han people lived together, and they migrated from the interior Some Han people came to participate in reclamation outside the Great Wall, making the Han people outnumber the two tribes, and the rule quickly stabilized.
The key is that Zheng Yu ordered the strict implementation of the national reconciliation policy formulated by Master Liu Yu in Wuhuan, so that all ethnic groups could live in harmony. Even the newly migrated Xianbei tribe quickly calmed down and transformed from nomadic tribes to ethnic minorities. Farming and hunting, learning Chinese, practicing Chinese customs, taking Chinese names, and being completely assimilated by the Han people did not take long. Of course, these are all things for later.
After dealing with these, Zheng Yu immediately took two bodyguards, Li Ji and Wu Min, and escorted by Lei Bao with 500 soldiers, left the east city and headed towards the Liaodong border area. The place they were going to was Zhao Yun's center. Army, he is the commander-in-chief of the Chinese Army.
The coach went out to fight, and Song Ji and Tian Chou sent them out of the city gate.
Thirty miles after Zheng Yu led his troops out of the city, he met Wu Su, Zuo Lan, Jin Ji, and Yu Ji, who were coming down from the mountain and heading towards Liucheng. They happened to meet each other.
Seeing Zheng Yu going out for the expedition, Zuo Lan immediately got off the carriage, rushed over and said loudly: "Fortunately, I arrived in time, otherwise I would have just missed him." After saying that, she couldn't help but throw herself into his arms with a smile on her face. No longer making any attempt to hide his longing, he said, "Ms. sir, I miss Lan'er so much. I really miss her."
Thinking of the charm and lovesickness they felt when they were alone in Wuhuan, Zuo Lan could no longer hold back her tears.
Zheng Yu gently wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and said lovingly: "My Lan'er is a fairy, so naturally she is otherworldly." Zuo Lan wiped the tears and felt a little embarrassed seeing so many people, so she quickly broke away from his arms. He came out and said coquettishly: "Lan'er has come down to earth, and from now on she won't think about things in heaven anymore."
Wu Su walked over and said, "Fortunately we blocked him, otherwise as Zuo Lan said, we would have passed him by."
Zheng Yu pulled Wu Su into his arms, causing her to panic immediately. She quickly pushed him away and whispered, "There are outsiders here."
Zheng Yu scratched his head and said "Oh" with a sinister smile on his face. Wu Su rolled his eyes at him but said nothing. Li Ji and Wu Min laughed "chichi".
Jin Ji and Yu Ji rushed over. Jin Ji held his big hand, while Yu Ji hugged his neck. Just like Zuo Lan did just now, she gave him a heavy peck on the lips and said loudly: "It doesn't smell good at all." ,"
Her words were full of innocence and very interesting. Everyone laughed happily, and the feeling of leaving for the expedition was immediately diluted. At this point, Zheng Yu remembered that Wusu and the others must have something else, so he quickly asked: "You must have something." Other important things,”
Wu Su nodded, "I'm mainly here to see the Governor off on his expedition. In addition, I want to invite Cai Yan and your wife to be guests of the Holy Lady Church. I have some specific things I want to tell them."
Zheng Yu was overjoyed, "Did it work?" He thought, Wu Su and Zuo Lan must have figured out the secret to opening up the vitality, and he was very eager to make Wu Su, Zuo Lan and other fairies have a big belly quickly. That was really He felt a greater sense of accomplishment than his victory on the battlefield, so his face was filled with joy.
Zuo Lan took over and said: "Eight and nine are inseparable. Our family will have a son soon,"
"Come on, tell me," Zheng Yu's expression looked excited and urgent.
But Zuo Lan was pulled aside by Wu Su. She rolled her eyes at Zheng Yu and said coquettishly: "These are girls' private words. Why are you, a grown man, listening to this?" This was a bit unreasonable. But thinking about these details is very embarrassing. How can I say it in front of so many people?
Zheng Yu patted his head with a simple and honest look, and understood that he really couldn't say anything at this time, but thinking that he was the specific executor, he would know the details eventually, but Yu Ji rushed over and whispered in his ear: " It's about dual cultivation practice. Sister Wusu and Zuo Lan are going to teach your ladies how to practice. Brother-in-law, Sister Jin Ji and I are also going to practice this time."
"You little brat, what kind of kung fu are you practicing? You should grow up first," Wu Min said teasingly, pulling Yu Ji aside.
Yuji's chest puffed up, "Not too small,"
It can be seen that Wu Min also puffed up his chest and hurriedly acted like a deflated rubber ball. He did not dare to speak and muttered in a low voice: "I won't compete with you now. I will compete with Sister Wu Min when I grow up." After that, he retreated to Jin Go behind Ji.
