Chapter 426 Is this the end?

Zhang Buyi is not a bigot.

In fact, he even talked about it for an hour and a half.

The real situation is that the Huns surrendered in less than an hour.

There are some decent battles, but they are almost negligible.

"This...this is a win???" Chai Wu looked confused. Until now, he can't believe that they actually won.

Yes, the Han army won in less than an hour.

Chai Wu was the first to attack, and then the other three groups went to outflank him. The Huns wanted to escape.

But they were soon blocked back. To the north was the Yellow River, and there was not enough passage for them to escape.

There are enemies on the other three sides. At this time, besides surrendering, what else can they do?

"What do you think?" Zhang Buyi smiled slightly, with a proud look on his face.

Chai Wu's performance was pretty good, but he was still a little short of a general who could lead an army alone.

The resources he has access to are actually quite a lot, but the speed of growth is really too slow.

In this regard, even Zhang Buyi is much stronger than Chai Wu.

At least, Zhang Buyi can see the problem based on the intelligence.

"Read more, think more, and summarize more!" Zhang Buyi explained earnestly.

"There are nearly 200,000 people in the Xiongnu camp. Generally speaking, there will be at least 10,000 or 20,000 people in the camp. Even if this is their logistics, even if there are no strong enemies around, no one will dare to let it go. No matter. If enemy scouts continue to harass you near your camp, what will you do?" Zhang Buyi looked at Chai Wu and asked.

"Of course I'm going to fuck him, why don't you even think about it?" Chai Wu said directly without even thinking about it.

"Yes, of course I'll fuck him!" Zhang Buyi imitated Chai Wu's tone, and then said: "Where are the Huns? Have you done them? Did our scouts suffer any big losses? Even if we suddenly More scouts were added to encircle and suppress the Huns. Did their camp send troops to support them?"

"No..." Chai Wu thought for a moment and said.

"Yes, no, we have been bullied right at our doorstep, and we have been bullied for more than ten days in a row. If there was someone in his camp, would he sit idly by and do nothing?" Zhang Buyi asked.

"No!" Chai Wu shook his head.

"That's right, definitely not. From the beginning, the Huns didn't seem to expect that we would come. Maybe they were still waiting for news about the Huns scouts outside the Great Wall. From the beginning, they misjudged that our scouts were harassing us. The purpose, maybe they have sent people to notify the main force, I don’t know for sure, but no matter what, the current camp must be empty."

"With more than 40,000 of our main forces, can't we still take down the Huns' logistics base?" Zhang Buyi looked at Chai Wu with a smirk on his face.

Chai Wu thought about it and still felt it was a bit fake.

Anyway, no matter how you look at it, it seems impossible. It seems like it all happened in a dream.

Did Zhang Buyi really make these judgments?

Is this still the salted fish general I know?

When did Zhang Buyi learn these skills?

You must know that Zhang Buyi is privately called the most handsome boss in the Han Dynasty, and his promotion depends entirely on the emperor's favor.

The other generals are all powerful, but Zhang Buyi is definitely at the level of a favorite.

Since when did your favorite Zhang Buyi have such strong abilities?

"Moreover, everything on the battlefield can be traced..." Zhang Buyi showed a mysterious smile again.

"???" Chai Wu looked at Zhang Buyi in confusion.

I also know this, but can you explain it more clearly?

Zhang Buyi looked around, then quietly pulled Chai Wu aside.

There were no idle people around. The battle was over. There were only more than 2,000 Huns resisting, and these people were killed in the first wave of roosters.

And the rest are all old, weak, sick and disabled.

Now the army is collecting the spoils of war, and the harvest of this trip is definitely good. The Huns left a lot of horses here.

These horses were originally owned by the Huns and robbed from Donghu.

You must know that after the Huns captured Donghu, they took away all the war horses from the original tribe. The Donghu people only had more war horses than the Huns.

It is estimated that the Huns themselves would not have thought that they did not leave their war horses to Guan Ying and Han Xin, but instead took them thousands of miles and gave them to Zhang Buyi.

"Actually, I received the news five days before the expedition!" Zhang Buyi whispered with a smile.

"News? What news?" Chai Wu was stunned for a moment and subconsciously said: "Scout?"

"News from the east! His Majesty told me to be more careful on the grasslands earlier. Five days before the expedition, I received an urgent report from Luoyang that the Huns were defeated in the east!" Zhang Buyi said calmly, the outcome is irrelevant anyway.

It's important, but this bit of shit needs to be done first.

"What? The Huns were defeated?" Chai Wu felt a little unbelievable and said in surprise.

It’s not surprising that the Huns lost the battle with the Han army, but on the grassland, their fighting power seems to be quite strong, right?

Why did we lose this battle again?

Why do I suddenly feel that my brain is not functioning well enough?

"That's right, it was a defeat. The Huns first destroyed Donghu. They were so fast that Guan Ying and Han Xin couldn't catch up. After defeating the Huns, they sent an army of 100,000 people south to invade the border.

, Fortunately, His Majesty had anticipated this in advance, so he transferred Wang Li back from the south and led all the 130,000 recruits who enlisted this year to Yuyang. As soon as the recruits were halfway to Yuyang, the Huns came."

"Before Wang Li left Luoyang, he ordered the five border counties to clear the country and not leave a grain of grain or a single person for the Huns. When he arrived at Yuyang, he set up an iron barrel formation. The Huns couldn't do anything, leaving two thousand corpses.

Then we retreated to the border.”

"At this time, Guan Ying and Han Xin's troops split into two groups. Guan Ying personally led an army of 70,000 people to go south to support him. It turned out that the Huns were clever and sent their scouts far enough. When they saw Guan Ying, they immediately ran away."

"Han Xin continued to search for the main force of the Huns on the grassland, but the Huns were too cunning. Every time they captured a Donghu tribe, they took away the strong men, war horses, and a large number of cattle and sheep, leaving only the old, weak, sick and disabled in the camp.

And some Xiongnu family members guarded them."

"No matter what Han Xin did, the main force of the Huns would not come. No, Han Xin was angry. He sent people to various places to lull those tribes, and lulled tens of thousands of women back in one go. The Huns were then anxious and had to come out and follow

Han Xin fights."

"In the end, in this battle, the Huns were no match at all. More than 100,000 people attacked Han Xin's 30,000 people, but more than 10,000 corpses were left behind. There were more than 30,000 people who surrendered, and the rest all ran away."

"There were too many prisoners, so Han Xin could not continue the pursuit. He could only lead his people south, first hand over the prisoners to Wang Li, and then join forces with Guan Ying to march westward."

"Judging from the scale, what appears in front of us is probably the main force of the Huns that was defeated by Han Xin."

"Now these cattle, sheep, and war horses are from the Huns, Donghu people, and Yuezhi people!"

"Do you still remember that I asked the scouts to observe the size of the Huns going south?" Zhang Buyi asked with a smile.

Chai Wu nodded subconsciously: "Remember..."

He couldn't bear to forget this matter. Zhang Buyi would inquire about the situation almost every day, and would send a large number of men to observe the Huns heading south every day.

Although it is impossible to get an accurate number, from the traces on the ground, it is possible to roughly judge a range of people.

The reward given by the scouts is also very clear, it should be more than 100,000 people.

In addition to the previous information given by the Yuezhi people, as well as the continuous investigation and testing.

Substituting these known intelligence and looking at the information obtained during this period, we can basically judge that most of the main Xiongnu forces have gone south to pursue the Yuezhi people.

The Huns were divided into three batches.

The first batch is the main force of more than 100,000 people, and the second batch is slightly older men, but not yet old enough to withstand strenuous exercise, as well as men who are about to reach adulthood. These people are the auxiliary troops of the Huns.

The task of the auxiliary soldiers is to drive the sheep that are enough for them to consume and follow the troops within a range of fifty miles to ensure that the troops can receive supplies within a day.

At the same time, because these people are either about to become adults or have not yet lost their combat effectiveness, they have a certain ability to protect themselves.

The third batch was far away, basically it didn’t continue southward after crossing the Yellow River.

They were obviously also worried that the Han army would suddenly increase its troops in the west and directly cut off their contact.

Therefore, the main logistics force with limited mobility was asked to stay on the south bank of the Yellow River, and at the same time, scouts were sent to keep an eye on Yunzhong County to prevent Yunzhong County from committing fraud.

This place is almost five hundred miles away from Yunzhong County, so as long as Yunzhong County sends troops, they have at least three days to evacuate.

And because it was close to a large river, they could easily dismantle the bridge after crossing the river to prevent the Han army from pursuing northward.

In the eyes of the Huns, this was a safe method.

Although there are also some adventures, too many people were lost in the east. Now the Huns must make up for their losses through war and plunder, otherwise it will be difficult for them to rise quickly.

"I understand!" After thinking through these key points, the fog in front of Chai Wu was lifted: "Since the general has known the news from the east for a long time, why didn't he tell the soldiers?"

Zhang Buyi rolled his eyes at Chai Wu: "What are you telling them for? Are you trying to stimulate them? Do you want to see what others like and drink spicy food? Or are you planning to make them forget who they are? No matter how good the east side is in fighting, it still belongs to the east side.

What does the result of the battle have to do with us? Our morale does not need to be stimulated in this way!"

"But General..."

Zhang Buyi waved his hand directly, interrupted Chai Wu's words, and said bluntly: "No need, this battle is half over. The task now is to hide the news for the time being, and then take them away as soon as possible. Now

The number of war horses is enough. We will speed up the march. We must return to the Great Wall within ten days. We will tell everyone the good news after entering the Great Wall. Also, don’t forget that in addition to the 200,000 people in the south, there are still more people on the grassland.
