Chapter 855 Southern Xiongnu in attack
The Yellow River has only one advantage. I don’t know if the Han Dynasty was unable to defend the area north of the Beidi County in history, or because the Southern Xiongnu were sincere in their attitude, they gave up the Hetao area to the other party.
With the Hetao Plain, the Qiang people were about to starve to death. The Southern Xiongnu still had lush water and grass. However, the rainfall last year was indeed low, and others were not wrong. They would cry poor, but they were not going to ask Yuan Shao for more benefits?
"Zuo Xianwang, there is Hanoi County in front..." The high-ranking cadre looked at the Southern Xiongnu general next to him. The identity of this general was not simple. He was the nephew of the current Shanyu Huchuquan, and the son of the previous generation Shanyu - Liu Bao.
Liu Bao lived in the Han area in 188. He was born after Maodun Shanyu, so the surname Han was Liu. Strictly speaking, it was related to the royal family of the Western Han Dynasty.
If Liu Bao is not famous yet, then his son Liu Yuan will be famous. After the Five Barbarians invaded China, Liu Yuan rebuilt the Han Dynasty (known in history as Han Zhao/Fore Zhao). When the problem was established, he claimed that it was "Han".
"Why don't you go directly to Hedong in Beidi County, but take Bingzhou to take a detour?" Liu Bao looked at the high-ranking officials and was a little dissatisfied. He could go south directly, but why did he take a detour? Along the way, these tens of thousands of Hun soldiers consumed a lot of cattle and sheep. If they hadn't hunted along the way, they would have been a little short of food.
Of course, there are still a lot of cattle and sheep in the back. The question is why we have to bring so many people. When we come to Bingzhou, we will directly ask for food and grass. If not, whether friendly troops will become enemies will be different.
Yuan Shao had promised that he would come to the mansion of the Han Dynasty and conquer a city. He could allow them to rob for a day, but the woman could not be killed. At most, he could wait for Yuan Shao to redeem it (this high-ranking official didn't say it immediately, which was the bottom line).
"The northern county is in ruins, no one lives there, and the city is almost destroyed. When you come there, supply will be a problem. Going to Hedong, the north of Hedong County is full of long mountains. It is better to go to Bingzhou than to restrict the movement of cavalry. At least there is a ready-made official road, which can go all the way south." The high-ranking cavalry replied.
"That's how... you're still thoughtful! Haha..." When Liu Bao heard this, he seemed to be the same, so he didn't mean to blame him anymore.
He paused and continued, "The General's conditions that he promised us are still valid?"
"It works, of course it works!" The high-ranking official nodded, although this offended some of the aristocratic families in Hanoi County.
However, most of the big families there were inconsistent with Yuan Shao. Just say that the Sima family and the Han family either surrendered to Cao Cao or became officials in the Han Dynasty, and they were not under Yuan Shao's command. Therefore, even if these families were destroyed, it would not be heartbroken for Yuan Shao.
"But..." The senior official still needs to remind him, "No need to say men, women are not allowed to kidnap!"
There are too few women. Although they have good physical fitness, they can give birth to twins and triplets. Moreover, they can give birth to at least forty or fifty people during 150 years of adolescence. But the problem is that among these forty or fifty people, there may be more than ten women. This means that at least twenty or thirty people will have to be bachelors in the future.
If a man deducts the ancient genus, he has a lot of rough work. One person can do it, but an ordinary man needs two people to do it. Fortunately, there is no problem with his IQ, so some jobs that do not require too much physical strength can still be competent. In other words, moving bricks in this world can really make a fortune...
"It's too wasteful to kill it. It's better to catch it and herd cattle for us. Especially those with tender meat, it's comfortable to look at..." Zuo Xianwang raised the corner of his mouth slightly. There are many girls in the clan who like this kind of tender flesh the most. The key is that many men seem to like it very much, such as his dear comfort, the current Shanyu Huchuquan of the Southern Xiongnu.
This time, he agreed to send troops because "Cai Yan (Yuan Yao)" married the Southern Xiongnu and became his uncle's favored concubine. It was just a bit of a loss. In theory, the so-called "Cai Yan (Yuan Shu)" was going to marry him.
The Huns took the left as the superior, and Zuo Xianwang was the next candidate of the Shanyu. As the son of Yufuluo Shanyu, Liu Bao should have been the Zuo Xianwang very early, and Huchuquan, who was younger brother, was probably the Youxianwang at that time. However, Yufuluo died early and Liu Bao was still young, so Huchuquan became the Shanyu, but it is not surprising that Liu Bao was still the Zuo Xianwang.
In other words, it seems reasonable that Liu Bao is the one who abducted Cai Wenji in history.
As for this world, Huchuquan has a good habit of Longyang, so he naturally has no descendants, so he still serves as the Left King of Liu Bao. Liu Bao was also worried, what if this uncle changed his mind that day? So he naturally had to work hard to collect a large number of "loved people" for him. As for the beauty, don't, absolutely not!
"Hanoi County is about to arrive. When we enter the county, we may encounter enemy troops at any time. I hope you are careful. After all, in order to defend Hanoi County, the Cao army will probably mobilize a lot of elite troops to guard here." The senior official reminded.
"Haha..." Liu Bao laughed when he heard this, "If they were to seize the city, then I really had no choice, but if I dared to fight with us, even if I dispatched 30,000 troops, I would not be our opponent!"
For Liu Bao, the Han army's crossbow was indeed very powerful, but the problem was that it could only be launched once. By the second time, the large army had already rushed to the front. For the Huns who were good at controlling horses and riding and shooting, as long as they could survive a wave, the problem would be not big!
The two sides fought for more than 800 years, and the Southern Xiongnu continued to summarize and accumulate ways to deal with the Han army. For example, the trick of hiding in the belly of a horse, when encountering the opponent's arrow, they directly turned over and entered the belly of the horse, and the opponent's arrow could shoot directly in the air. Even if they hit the horse, the subsequent cavalry could quickly avoid it and then continue to rush forward.
At the same time, the left and right wings launched shooting and restraining, and charged head-on. As long as the opponent's gun array can be broken, the Han army in front of us will be a lamb waiting to be slaughtered, which is not worth worrying!
"Zuo Xianwang..." The high-ranking official looked around and then whispered, "About the transaction between the two of us..."
"It's easy to say, the women from Xianbei and Wusun have gathered 3,000 people, and they will follow the original price!" Zuo Xianwang naturally knew what the high-ranking officials meant.
There is a saying that "relatively speaking", there are many women in the Han area, while there are more women and few men in the Hu people. It is said that the troops behind King Zuo Xian now have 6,000 out of ten thousand people, all of whom are female soldiers, all of whom are women from the Southern Xiongnu.
I don’t know what went wrong. No matter how good a woman can give birth, she would have forty or fifty in her life. In the end, there were only a dozen men, and many girls couldn’t find anyone to marry, otherwise. Liu Bao was still thinking about plundering men from the Han area, because there were too few men.
There are few men, and the civilization is relatively backward, so women are tough and not considerate. They call and drink from men and vaguely tend to return to matriarchal society. So some men would rather like Longyang than marry in such an environment, which has further aggravated the population pressure.
Not to mention the Southern Xiongnu, Wusun, Xianbei and Wuhuan all had this situation, so many women simply sold it directly to the big man as goods. They really had no wives and had no right to choose. They spent money to buy one back, but at least they had a wives.
