Chapter 848: One Hundred Thousand Army of the Huns

There is no dispute about the origin of the name Hedong County, it is entirely because it is on the east bank of the Yellow River.

But for Hedong County, the Yellow River only wraps the periphery of the entire county.

Fenshui runs through this Hedong County!

The banks of Fenshui not only built most of the cities in Hedong County, but also the main rivers and roads connecting Bingzhou.

Including Xu Huang, who has become famous in the Yizhou Army, and his hometown is Yang County on the east side of Fenshui.

Without Xu Huang, there would still be nothing in this place.

Not far from Yang County, on the west bank of Fen River, there is another city, Pingyang County, which has been mediocre for hundreds of years.

Before the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the reputation of Pingyang County was not obvious.

The sense of presence in the 19 counties of Hedong County is extremely low!

The city of Pingyang is so mediocre that there are almost no stories.

However, just seven years ago, Pingyang suddenly emerged and became the focus of Hedong County.

Seven years ago, Yu Fuluo, the Shan Yu of the Huns who surrendered to Cao Cao, died. Hu Chuquan, Yu Fuluo's younger brother, succeeded Shan Yu and was placed in Pingyang by Cao Cao.

Pingyang County, Hedong County, which was originally mediocre, became the royal court of the Southern Huns in 195 AD in the second year of Xingping!

Seven years ago, with the support of Cao Cao, Hu Chuquan quickly gained a foothold and successfully led the entire Southern Huns.

However, at the head of Pingyang City at this time, a big flag with the character Liu was flying in the wind.

It was Tai Shici, Ma Chao, Pound and 17,000 Yizhou cavalry led by Pang Tong who occupied the city.

There was no fighting here, and Pang Tong successfully captured Pingyang City without any hindrance.

As for why there are no Huns stationed in the royal court of the Huns, all the reasons must be attributed to one person.

Liu Zhang!

If there is no Liu Zhang, even if Liu Zhang is only active in Liangzhou, he will not march into Qi County to confront the Xianbei people.

So at this time, the city of Pingyang is still full of Huns.

When Liu Zhang was still fighting Han Sui, Ma Chao and hundreds of thousands of Qiang people in Yuzhong, Huchuquan and the Xiongnu army were still in Pingyang.

But last year when Liu Zhang was fighting with the Xianbei people, when the two sides faced off in Qi County, Hu Chuquan led his army to withdraw from Pingyang.

Hu Chuquan led his army through Qiantao Plain and Houtao Plain, gathered 100,000 people who control strings, and lurked in Xitao Plain.

Xitao Plain, that is, north of Lian County, the northernmost city of Beidi County.

Huchuquan has only one purpose, to reap the benefits of the fisherman.

Regardless of who will win in the end, Liu Zhang or the Xianbei, Hu Chuquan is confident that he will be able to take advantage.

Liu Zhang is weak, and if he wins, it will be a tragic victory. At that time, Hu Chuquan can lead his army to take Guanzhong.

If Xianbei is victorious, with Fu Luohan's character, he must be overjoyed. Hu Chuquan happened to lead an army to attack Xianbei, a shame on the ancestors!

It's a pity that the development of the matter was completely beyond Hu Chuquan's expectations!

Liu Zhang not only won the victory without bloodshed, but also buried the 100,000 Xianbei army alive!

What kind of deterrent is this?

When Hu Chuquan heard about the burial, he was shocked on the spot!

Hastily led the army to flee from Xitao Plain to Houtao Plain, for fear that his previous behavior would anger Liu Zhang.

It was also Hu Chuquan's unrealistic dream that made him make a meaningless toss.

Bypassing the Yellow River from the Hedong County Plain, all the power of the Huns was taken to the Hetao area.

Without Liu Zhang, the people in the north of Baibo Valley want to escape the clutches of the Huns, which is tantamount to a dream.

The opportunity for these people to evacuate was entirely due to Liu Zhang's unintentional move.

It was also because of the ravages of the Huns that the people in these counties could endure Wei Ke's brutal and desperate drive.

In fact, Wei Ji didn't want to do that, because he was in Anyi and suddenly received a piece of information!

Hu Chuquan suddenly led 100,000 people who control strings, and came to Hedong County!

Wei Ke, who got the news, immediately put down everything he was doing, and brought a few guards to head north desperately.

He not only gave warning to Pang Tong and the Yizhou cavalry, but also personally led the people to evacuate as soon as possible.

In order to prevent the panic from spreading, Wei Ji could only conceal everything and forcibly urged the people to evacuate.

Today, Wei Xi's inhumane expulsion has only one purpose, to save more people.

Hu Chuquan's sudden attack can be said to have exceeded everyone's expectations.

Especially Liu Zhang, he is familiar with the historical trend, and he is more aware of the future trend of Huchuquan.

There was indeed a large-scale use of troops in Huchuquan in history, but it was not this year, but after Yuan Shao died next year.

After Yuan Shang succeeded Yuan Shao, he successfully lured Hu Chuquan to rebel against Cao Cao.

In order to cooperate with Hu Chuquan, Yuan Shang also dispatched senior officials of Bingzhou governor and general Guo Yuan to join the operation.

The two sides jointly marched into Hedong County, threatening Cao Cao's flank.

Yuan Shao is not dead now, and Yuan Jun has no signs of fighting Cao Jun at present.

Who would have thought that Huchuquan, who had stayed well in the Houtao Plain, would suddenly lead an army south?

If it weren't for the spies of the guards inside the Xiongnu, the consequences would be absolutely disastrous!

After hearing the news, Pang Tong made a decisive decision and asked Wei Ji to lead the people south.

Pang Tong personally led the army into Pingyang, preparing to forcibly hold back the Huns.

"military adviser!"

A voice suddenly came, interrupting Pang Tong who was standing on the city wall looking into the distance.

"Ziyi! What's the matter?"

"According to the latest reports, Huchuquan's army has already arrived at Puzi. In three days at most, they will approach the city of Pingyang!"

So fast!

Pang Tong exclaimed in his heart, the speed of the Huns' advance far exceeded his expectations!

From the Houtao Plain to the east of the river, one needs to cross mountains and ridges.

Originally, Pang Tong thought that it would take at least five days for the Huns to arrive.

"Three days...Wei Kee can only go to Wenxi at most..."

Pang Tong frowned, and then became worried.

Now it is impossible for the people led by Wei Xi to directly enter Zuo Fengyi from Hedong, and the time is completely too late!

They could only go straight south all the way, forcefully cross the Yellow River to Hongnong, and then go to Chang'an by Hongnong.

It was half way further than the normal way, but safety was ensured after crossing the river.

"Ziyi, the Huns are not as powerful as the Xianbei. If we fight head-on, do you think we have a chance of winning?"

Pang Tong kept a glimmer of hope in Tai Shici, after all, Wu Fengying's reputation is too loud!

Whether it is against Ma Teng, Han Sui's iron cavalry, fine cavalry, or against Xianbei cavalry, Wu Fengying can win more with less and pierce the enemy!

If the Huns can be dealt with head-on, the serious problem can be solved once and for all.

For this reason, even if the Wufeng camp is damaged again, it will not hesitate!

Tai Shici clenched his hands tightly, he really wanted to tell Pang Tong that the Wufeng camp was invincible, but reason made him shake his head.

"Military Master, Wufeng Camp's killer move is the Che Xuan Formation. But there are many mountains in the Hedong area, especially after passing Anyi!"

"Although the road can be used by cavalry, the width of the road completely limits the performance of the Wufeng Battalion."

"If the Wufeng camp can't use the formation, at most one enemy...three!"

Pang Tong nodded slightly, and did not continue to embarrass Tai Shici.

He knew in his heart that Tai Shici was probably the one who gritted his teeth to say that one enemy is three.

If there is no strange trick, if 17,000 cavalry are thrown into one hundred thousand cavalry, they will be submerged in no time!

In particular, the Huns were proficient in cavalry and shooting, and they were able to attack and shoot, which would cause great casualties to the Yizhou cavalry.

The roads are mountainous and narrow, which is not conducive to cavalry raids.

If an ambush was set up in the middle of the road, Pang Tong would have no infantry and archers.

This place in the east of the river seems to be a dead end!
