Chapter 72 Reverse Take (1)

A moment later, General Ding Miao, General Chen Jin, General Ding Yu, Chief of the Army, and Chief of the Ji Sang, Bai Xu, Chen Pei, and Xiao Shi, Du Qin, Yang Xing and other leaders arrived one after another.

When they stepped into the hall, the food and other food placed in the hall had been withdrawn, and pine and bright torches were added on the four walls, which were as bright as daylight. In the middle of the hall, Lu Yao hugged his shoulders with his hands and stared at a huge map hanging on the screen inside the hall. The map was painted with a whole picture of silk. Chu Kun and several personal soldiers pulled it hard on the left and right sides of the screen to organize it smoothly.

Shao Xu and Xue Tong stood behind Lu Yao, with Song Ming illuminating in Xue Tong's hands, while Shao Xu narrowed his eyes and looked carefully at every subtle part in the picture.

There were many new words written on the silk silk. Between the thick black lines that looked like the mountain water system, there were circles everywhere, and the blanks on the edges of the circles were added with the small words of fly heads. Hu Liuniang held the inkstone in one hand and the pen in the other, making the final correction. She frowned slightly, looked at the whole picture up and down, and finally turned to the lower right corner of the map and painted a few more words. She casually put the inkstone on the table table. She clapped her hands and smiled with satisfaction: "Daoming, please look, it's done!"

Hu Liuniang's father was once a great man from the Green Forest from Hebei to Yanmen. He was used to smuggling horses, weapons and selling private salt. Hu Liuniang was used to doing things like smuggling horses, weapons and selling private salt. If he was familiar with the forces of all parts of the northern border, no one could surpass her.

"Thank you, Master Hu." Lu Yao nodded and asked sideways: "What do you think Shao Gong thinks? Is there anything else that needs to be supplemented? I remember that Shao Gong once took on the responsibility of handing over the Hus in the northern border of the King of Chengdu. I believe he is very familiar with the situation here. If you find any omissions, please give me some advice."

Shao Xuwei really never expected that Lu Yao knew his former duties clearly. He was stunned for a moment and hurriedly said: "The Master Hu is indeed well aware of the situation in the northern border. This picture is meticulous and can be said to be completely missed."

"Very good. Since that's the case, let's start." Lu Yao turned around.

He Yun had been waiting for a long time, and after Lu Yao said, he knelt on one knee and reported, "General, all the generals have gathered together. The team leader and the generals are all there, except Liu Fei on duty." Then he stepped back and stood on the side of the platform in the center of the hall.

"Mr. Shao."

"In." Shao Xu moved out of the list.

"Please explain this picture to everyone."

"Yes!" Shao Xu coughed lightly and faced everyone sideways. He has been with the army these days and is familiar with most generals, so there is no need to introduce himself.

"Please look, this is a map of the northern border that the Lord of Hu Village has drawn for a few days. The people living in the center of this map, from left to right, are Yanmen County, Dai County, Shanggu County, and Guangning County. Jinyang is here, and Ji City is there." Shao Xu directed the map to talk freely: "This time, General Lu was ordered to go north to participate in the four-year ceremony of worshiping the sky in the Tuoba Xianbei. The destination of our trip is Dai County."

"Dai County is under the jurisdiction of Youzhou, which is the place of the country in the Spring and Autumn Period. There are still relics of Dai Wangcheng. This place is located in the south of Pingji, controls the desert in the north, and straits the danger of Liaoji on the left, and supports the solidity of Yunzhong on the right, which is a place that military strategists must fight for. The Taihang Mountains are divided into two north and south branches west of Dai County. The northern branch is connected to Yinshan Mountain, which separates Dai County from the Wanli Grassland. The Tuoba Xianbei held a ceremony to worship the sky, which is here; and the southern mountains connect the remaining lines of the mountain, becoming the boundary between the Dai County Basin and the Hebei Plain. Dai County has four counties, namely, Guangchang, Pingshu, and Dangcheng, and the capital is located in Dai County. However, since the dynasty's reign, the state's authority has not been implemented, resulting in the invasion of Hu Feng here, and the county magistrates, etc., who imitate clay and wooden body."

Shao Xu reached out and drew a big circle on the marked "Shaped as dense as stars in the Dai County area" on the map: "These are the forces that live in Dai County at this moment. Roughly estimated that there are about twenty of these Miscellaneous Hu tribes, with more than a thousand falling, while the smaller ones only tens of them falling. They did not accept the king's transformation and attacked each other. For decades, many forces have been stormy and died, and they are still in trouble today."

"Those mediocre tribes are not worth worrying about. Let's talk about the strongest power among them. Since Tuoba Yiyi, a central leader, died of illness last year, his tribe was annexed by the Luguan official in the eastern part of the Tuoba Xianbei, and Caohai in the northern part was all criticized as Luguan. Tuoba Yiyi's third son Pugen, He Yiyi, and Hena were still young, so the rest of the tribe was led by Yiyi's wife Wei, and moved from the east to the east of Chanhebei, occupying a small area in the western part of Dai County, and struggling to support it."

"The central part of Tuoba Xianbei is weak, and the territory of Dai County is controlled by the Wuhuan people and Duan Xianbei. The Wuhuan people are the remnants of Donghu. During the Han Dynasty, Huo Jiyao defeated the left land of the Xiongnu and moved various Wuhuan tribes to the five counties of Shanggu, Yuyang, Youbeiping, Liaodong and Liaoxi. They also set up Wuhuan lieutenants to be stationed in Shanggu County to deal with related matters. In the following hundreds of years, Wuhuan gradually moved into the Wuhuan, and the tribes were scattered in You, and there were no less than tens of thousands of people in the two states, and they were led by five or six tribes. Although they were defeated by the former Wei Emperor Wu, their power should not be underestimated. The Wuhuan people were mainly Hanshan and Baishan and other Wuhuan tribes, with about three thousand tribes."

"The Duan tribe is a powerful eastern Xianbei tribe known as the Yuwen tribe and Murong tribe. The contemporary clan leader Duan Wuwuchen was represented by Ningshuo General Wang Jun as the Duke of Western Liao, commanding more than 30,000 families of Hu Han and controlling 50,000 cavalry. His sphere of influence started from the southern part of Changli County and stretched for thousands of miles, covering all parts of Youzhou. In the past two years, they have been expanding further westward. The tribes of his son Jilu family frequently appeared in Shanggu, Guangning and other places, coveting Dai County."

Shao Xu walked a few steps to the right and raised his hand to show: "Another important force is the bandits gathered in Changshan. Changshan is across the border, connected to Taihang in the east, crossing Yanmen in the west, and stretching for more than 500 miles from east to west. Since the end of the Han Dynasty, this place has been a trespass for a group of thieves, and is still occupied by many Hu horse thieves outside the border. The most brutal and powerful one is called the "Changshan bandits". This horse thief comes and goes like the wind, burning and killing everywhere in the vast area that reaches Juyang in the east and Fanzhi in the west, and even the Xianbei and Wuhuan people dare not easily stroke their tiger beards."

"As soon as mentioned earlier, the number of the Hu people in the Dai area was more than three times that of the local Han people. Even if the Hu people do not occupy the city, it is enough to prevent the decree of the county prefect from leaving the county, so that the entire area seems to be a useless rib in Youzhou." Shao Xu returned to the platform and bowed to Lu Yao: "General, everyone, this picture shows roughly this."

"It's a blessing to Mr. Shao." Lu Yao nodded slightly to him, and Lu's eyes flashed across the faces of the twenty-one generals. Even Ding Miao and Shen Jin, two lazy people who had always been unreliable, could feel that Lu Yao must have something big, so he looked very serious. As for the other generals, they all held their breath.

Lu Yao strides forward and stands proudly against the background of the huge terrain situation map.

"Everyone, if you draw a straight line from east to west along the northern border of Jin, Dai County is an important point on this straight line, just between the Xianbei and the Tuoba Xianbei. If the Shanyuting, the eastern part of Tuoba Xianbei, in the north of the above valley, is drawn as the starting point and an arc from northeast to west, Dai County is still an important point on this arc, located between the two major forces in the eastern and western parts of Tuoba Xianbei. And if you look at it from a larger scale..."

Shao Xu stretched his arms as if he had wrapped the entire map in his arms: "The Hu and Han areas in Dai County are at the intersection of Han people and the Hu people in the north, and are located between the farming areas in the south and the nomadic areas in the northern desert."

"From Yanmen Fanzhi, walking 180 miles east, crossing Hengshan, and then reaching Dai County. The south of Dai County is connected to Zhongshan and Changshan in Jizhou, and to the southeast is Zhuo County in Youzhou. In the northeast, Dai County is connected to Shanggu and Guangning, and the three counties form a whole. Shanggu, Guangning and Dai County have three places, the passage of Youyan, with mountains and rivers, and can disturb the Rong of the Liaohai Sea. When going out west, it will shake the flying fox army, and it will also connect to the fertile fields in the south and control the desert in the north. It is worthy of being the key to the northern border.

.Analysis of the geography of the three counties, relying on the dangers of the peaks and the abundant grain and rice, the benefits of Hu market, and it has also been produced by powerful troops since ancient times. Since the restructuring of King Wuling of Zhao, Hu clothing and cavalry, and Daidi elite soldiers were the best in the world. During the Han Dynasty, Wei Huo sent troops from Dai County to attack the Huns. When it was the former Wei Dynasty, Dai Henei Pei Qian once wrote a statement saying: "The household registration of Dai County is Yin, and the soldiers and horses control strings, and there are tens of thousands of movements." There is no doubt that Dai County is an important town in the northern border. Whether it is Hu or Han, those who get it will prosper!"

"Over the years, it is only because it is located between the cracks of major forces, which can move the whole body with one move. The powerful tribes in the northern border, such as the Tuoba tribe, and Duan tribes are concerned about each other, so they dare not act rashly. But, the Husbands are concerned about each other, why should we worry about it? Such a situation is exactly where we use our skills!" Lu Yao raised his voice and stared at the generals in the hall: "Now, it is still more than a month before the Tuoba Xianbei sacrifice ceremony. In this month, I will make great efforts to take Dai County!"
