Xi Zhicai did not rush to explain, but looked at the map and asked, "My lord, where is Liu Bao now?"
"According to our spies, he's in the great city of Shuofang." Lin Han pointed to a location on the border of the map. "Tugehu is causing chaos in Shuofang and is currently in the city. Why are you asking him?"
"My lord, Liu Bao is the son of Yu Fuluo. Today, I beg you to spare Liu Bao. Since we want to drive the Southern Xiongnu into the Xianbei, please promise Yu Fuluo not to kill Liu Bao.
Tell Yu Fuluo to cooperate in attacking the forces of Xubu Guduhou in Meiji City. Use Yu Fuluo's troops as siege costs. We promise not to kill Liu Bao, but to drive him north, into the desert.
hiss~
Lin Han's eyelids twitched.
Xi Zhicai’s plan is so beautiful.
He was amazed by Xi Zhicai's move.
As expected, the [Planning] skill is so terrifying.
If Yu Furo agreed to his conditions, he could just kill Yu Furo's troops with a legitimate reason, the Southern Xiongnu would be completely destroyed, and it would be difficult for Yu Furo to cause chaos in the future.
"Mr. Xi has a good plan." Bai Qi said during the meal.
Since joining the team, Bai Qi never praised anyone, and Xi Zhi was the first one to do so.
"That's what we decided."
Lin Han asked someone to find Yu Furuo.
Yu Furuo, who was originally disappointed, showed hope again when he saw Lin Han.
"General Xiao, are you willing to let the Tugehu tribe go?"
"It's unlikely that I'll let the Tugehu tribe go. They're causing chaos in Bingzhou. I've come here under orders to suppress them. However, I can spare Liu Bao and half of the Tugehu generals."
"What do you mean?" Hope flashed in Yu Furuo's eyes.
"When I attack the Tugehu tribe, I will let Liu Bao go and not surround and kill him, but there is a condition."
"General Xiao, please speak." Yu Furuo was overjoyed.
"You must cooperate with me and attack the Xubu clan in Meiji City. The Xubu clan was one of the instigators of the Tugehu rebellion. If you join me in attacking Meiji City, I will spare Liu Bao."
"That's...good."
Yu Fuluo thought about it again and again and nodded in agreement.
Done.
Lin Han remained calm on the surface.
Xi Zhicai’s plan has been completed.
Let Yu Furuo go back to reorganize the army, and Lin Han gave the marching orders to the others.
Xu Chu led 10,000 Jingji guards and stayed in Taiyuan County with Xun Yu to garrison and protect the safety of food and supplies in the rear.
Bai Qi led the Demon Guard Battalion and 10,000 captured soldiers to the direction of the great city of Shuofang, killing half and leaving the other half, and drove Liu Bao north.
The remaining 20,000 Jingji Guards and captured soldiers, as well as 20,000 soldiers from Yufuluo's army, followed Lin Han towards Meizhi City.
After the entire army had rested, they headed north into Xihe County.
On the fifth day, the entire army went to Pingding City via Fenyang Yangchangcang.
On the way, they encountered some rebellious Hun bandits, but they were put down by Lin Han's butcher knife in one fell swoop without causing any splash.
The reason why the Huns dared to rebel was that they saw the chaos in the Central Plains and the incompetence of the border commanders, so they dared to have evil intentions.
Unfortunately, it was Lin Han who went on the expedition this time, and the Huns were not so lucky.
Yu Furuo, who had originally doubted Lin Han's reputation, completely gave up after seeing the army and methods under Lin Han's command.
It turns out that there is no false reputation.
When they reached Pingding City, the two armies went their separate ways.
Bai Qi led the Demon Guard Battalion and 10,000 captive soldiers westward, entering Shuofang and heading towards Dacheng. Meanwhile, Lin Han led Dian Wei, Xi Zhi, Yu Fuluo, and others northward, heading towards Meiji City.
Pingding City is more than 60 kilometers away from Meizhi City, and can be reached in a day's march.
Meiji City was built by the Han Dynasty to accommodate the surrendered Xiongnu people. It is also called Nanchanyu Court. When the Xiongnu people were dependent on the Han Dynasty, the surrendered Xiongnu people gathered in this area.
The Tugehu tribe rebelled and caused chaos everywhere. Xubu Guduhou took over the position of Chanyu and took the lead in occupying Meiji City, intending to break away from the control of the Han Dynasty.
When the enemy was at the gates of the city, the people on the city walls were in panic.
Xubu Guduhou was on the top of the Meizhi City wall, looking at Lin Han from a distance. When he saw Yu Furuo beside Lin Han, his face immediately turned dark.
"Yu Fuluo, are you determined to be a dog of the Han people and attack your own brothers?" Xubu Gudu Hou roared.
"You thief, you led your soldiers in rebellion, usurped the throne, and caused countless casualties among my people. You are not my brother."
Yu Fuluo was furious.
The father was killed, the son was persuaded to rebel, and he was left to wander outside. Now the other party wants to teach him a lesson, which is a great shame and humiliation.
"If you kill the Han general next to you and return to the Southern Xiongnu, I will return the position of Chanyu to you." Xubu Guduhou shouted.
"Liu Bao has been tricked by you to this point. Do you think I will believe your lies?"
Yu Fuluo was dismissive.
During the march, he knew how terrifying Lin Han was. Not to mention that he wanted to rebel, even if he had some intention of doing so, all of them would be killed without a burial place.
Seeing that the two had quarreled enough, Lin Han rode forward, took out his ancestral loudspeaker calmly, and shouted towards the city.
"Listen up, everyone in the city! I am Xiao Hange. You are causing chaos in Wuyuan and harming the people. Leave the city and surrender immediately, or I will kill you without mercy."
The words caused a commotion.
Xiao Hange's name was well-known among the Qiang, Di, Xianbei, and Xiongnu peoples. He was ruthless and merciless when slaughtering foreigners, never showing mercy, and was feared by everyone.
Just one call made the Tuguhu in Meizhi City panic, which shows the deterrent power of his name.
"Han thief, if you have the guts, attack the city. I'll be waiting for you inside."
Xubu Guduhou shouted from the top of the city wall.
After these words were spoken, the Xiongnu soldiers felt much more at ease.
At this time, Xubu Guduhou was a man in his forties, the new patriarch of the Xubu tribe. He was extremely strong and had a fierce look.
"Brother, go up and challenge him."
Upon receiving the order, Dian Wei immediately rode forward, pointing the halberd in his hand directly at the top of the city wall.
"You traitor, do you dare to leave the city and fight your father?"
