    After discussion, it was decided to use Tanshi Tuolan, Tanshi Qiuyue, and Taishi Ci as the front army, Che Gonglie and Qiu Liju as the rear army, Huang Zhong as the general for the Northern Expedition, and Liu Yi as the military advisor, commanding 130,000 troops to launch the Northern Expedition.  Xianbei.  Three days later, the army set off. Wang Yue stood at the top of the city, watching the generals go away, and sighed: "The army is still too small. In this Northern Expedition to Xianbei, I can only send 130,000 troops! Too few! Too few!"  " Wei Yan said: "Lord, don't disturb me. Although we have few soldiers, we are each one against ten. I believe that with 130,000 Northern Expedition troops, we can defeat Beihu in one fell swoop." Tong Guan also nodded and said: "Yes, I will.  The strength of the Wang family's army is so powerful that it cannot be measured in terms of numbers. "Gu Yong said: "My lord, I believe that the top priority is to appease the people, win over the people, and stabilize the entire Liaodong." Wang Yue said: "Oh?  Gu Yushi, do you have any suggestions?" Gu Yong said: "My lord, there are three foundations for our foundation: one is the famous Wang family business name at home and abroad; the other is the powerful Wang family army in Jiuzhou; the third is the widely respected military officer.  School. Now, Liaoxi, Woju, Dongyi, Goguryeo, and Sanhan have been included in the territory. There are many more advantages such as salt factories, ironware, copper mines, and marine fisheries. We should integrate resources from all parties, optimize our advantages, and make up for it.  Our disadvantage will turn Liaodong into a real paradise." Wang Yue smiled and said: "That's very good. I wonder if Gu Yushi has any further detailed plans?" Gu Yong said: "Yes, my lord.  Report it carefully." Wang Yue looked around and said with a smile, "Look, Gu Yushi is indeed a disciple of Cai Yong, he is very experienced!" "Haha" Everyone laughed in unison and walked into the hall while laughing.  Go and listen to Gu Yong's detailed development plan.  Not to mention how Liaodong developed, Huang Zhong commanded an army of 130,000, with Tanshi Tuolan's Flying Knife Battalion, Huang Zhong's Shen Gong Battalion, and Qiu Liju's Cavalry and Shooting Battalion as sharp-sword troops, and rushed into the Mobei Grassland with great momentum.  .  These elites of the Wang family army are all capable of defeating hundreds of people. Facing the scattered soldiers on the grassland, they are all as easy as cutting melons. Even if they occasionally encounter rebuked soldiers, under a hail of arrows, they will be outnumbered by the enemy.  When he reacted, he shot him on the spot.  "General, ahead is the Tumul Grassland, where General Anansha was captured." Although Qiu Liju was a little dissatisfied with the position of deputy general, he knew that the young man in front of him was Wang Yue's disciple, and he had a special  A powerful warrior who is known as the God of Arrows, his Divine Bow Battalion is much better than his Tallinn Knights in terms of quality and archery skills. If it were not for the slight advantage in riding and archery, he might still be in the Wang Family Army.  There is really no status at all!  Therefore, when he learned that the young man in front of him would be the commander-in-chief, Qiu Liju, the former leader of the Wuhuan Kingdom, did not have too many complaints.  "Yeah." Huang Zhong carefully searched around the grassland and found no useful clues, so he had to take a short rest and continue heading north.  At night, after setting up camp again, Huang Zhong invited Tanshi Tuolan and his son to the Chinese army's tent.  "General Tuolan, can you introduce to me the situation in the Mobei grassland?" Huang Zhong asked friendly.  Tanshi Tuolan looked at the grassland under the starry sky with a cold face. His expression softened a little, as if he was recalling something. A trace of tenderness flashed in his eyes, but was immediately replaced by thick resentment. His somewhat softened expression turned cold again.  stand up.  "There's nothing to say, it's just some grassland." Huang Zhong looked at Tan Shi Qiu Yue, the two of them looked a little embarrassed.  Tanshi Qiuyue quietly pulled his mother's sleeves and said with a blushing face: "Mom, the general wants to know what forces there are on the Mobei grassland." Tanshi Tuolan said: "Are they forces?" After thinking for a moment,  He also said: "There are nineteen tribes in Xianbei, of which eight are the largest, namely the Duan, Murong, and Yuwen tribes in the east; the Rouran tribe in the central and northern parts; and the Tuyuhun, Qifu, and Tufa tribes in the west.  " Huang Zhong counted in his mind and asked doubtfully: "General Tuolan, isn't this the seventh one? Who is the other one?" Tanshi Tuolan's originally cold face flashed with resentment, and he gritted his teeth.  Yinya said: "There is another one, which is our Tanshi Division, which is now the Tuoba Division!" "Oh" Huang Zhong suddenly realized and said apologetically: "General Tuolan, please don't worry, this time the master has made up his mind.  This time I will avenge the general's blood and restore the glory of your Tanshi tribe." Tanshi Tuolan said disdainfully: "Huh, he? He is not so kind! To restore our Tanshi tribe's Xianbei, we still have to rely on our Tanshi family.  "The power of Tanshi Tuolan!" Knowing that there was some dissatisfaction between Tanshi Tuolan and his master, although he didn't know the reason, Huang Zhong did not dwell on this matter anymore and continued to ask: "General Tuolan, what is the current strength of these eight divisions?"  " Tanshi Tuolan sank again and said: "?Seven years ago, when I came to Liaodong from Mobei, the eight divisions had about 300,000 troops, the central division had about 150,000 troops, and the east and west divisions had about 150,000 troops.  Now that seven years have passed, it is estimated that the number of troops will only increase, not decrease.  "    "ah?  so much?  "Tanshi Qiuyue was shocked. When he fled Liaodong, he was still young and didn't know the depth. He thought it was just an army of more than 100,000 people. He didn't expect that the three Hus combined would have such a force. And  This time, the Northern Expeditionary Army only had 130,000 soldiers, less than half of it. It was an away battle. Can they win? Tanshi Qiuyue became worried. Tanshi Tuolan raised his eyes and saw that both of them were a little surprised.  He said slowly: "Don't worry, Mobei's special nomadic life and extremely low economic environment have restricted the population development on the grassland.  No matter how many troops there are, there can only be so much; if it exceeds 500,000, it will be a disaster for the grassland.  " "Oh, so" Huang Zhong took a breath and said, "That's okay.  General Tolan, is there any connection between these tribes?  In other words, is there any possibility that we can differentiate?  Tanshi Tuolan naturally understood what Huang Zhong meant. He looked at the young general in front of him with approval and said, "The tribes on the grassland are somewhat different from those in the Central Plains. There is no union or differentiation between them. Since they have the same ancestor,  , and an enemy.  They are both proud of the eagles of the grassland, but they cannot tolerate each other; just like two tigers in the same territory, as long as there is an opportunity, they will definitely spare no effort to occupy each other's cattle, sheep, and women.  Everyone is already accustomed to these, and many tribal leaders may even be half-brothers!  However, due to mutual hatred and territorial awareness buried deep in their bones, these connections have long been deliberately ignored by everyone.  " "Territorial awareness?  "Huang Zhong chewed these four words gently, and his eyes flashed with strange lights. After a long time, he shouted to the account: "Guards, go and invite the generals to come over for discussion-including Military Advisor Liu Yi.  " "Yes, General.  "After a brief response, not long after, Taishi Ci, Qiu Liju, Che Gonglie, and Liu Yi came to the Zhongying tent one after another amid the sound of running. "General Huang.  " "General.  " All the generals saw the courtesy one after another. Huang Zhong stood up and returned the courtesy and said: "You don't have to be polite, please sit down.  " "General Huang, you are summoned late at night, but do you have any tricks to defeat the enemy?  I think this grassland is not ordinary. Can we, 130,000 people, conquer it?  " Taishi Ci became a disciple of Wang Yue and entered the royal family. He and Huang Zhong are also considered brothers and have a relatively close relationship. After sitting down, he was the first to raise his concerns. " Taishi Ci's words hit everyone's hearts. Except for Qiu Liju and Huang Zhong,  Except for Tanshi Tuolan, no one else had ever been to the grassland. Before setting off, he consciously used the elite of the Wang family army to defeat the well-equipped Samhan and Goguryeo in just three months. As for the backward Mobei,  It is easy for a country that can only survive by plundering to fully conquer it. However, only after we actually arrived on the grassland did we gain a new understanding of the seemingly endless sky and the sight of thousands of miles away.  Arriving at the populated grassland, everyone felt faintly worried. Liu Yi looked solemn and said: "We were not fully prepared for this northern expedition, and we did not expect that the grassland would be like this.  Not to mention defeating the enemy, our own supply problems are also a problem.  " The old man, Che Gonglie, had been a bandit on the Saintess' Peak for several years, and he was still the boss. But looking at the situation on the grassland, he also hated iron and steel. He cursed: "There is fertile land here, but why do these Xianbei people  Not farming?  What a backward nation.  " Qiu Liju and Tanshi Tuolan both came from the grasslands, so they understood the helplessness involved and looked at each other with a wry smile. Liu Yi saw that the two of them looked a little strange and asked: "What?  Is there any unknown reason for this?  "    "oh?  "Everyone then remembered that there were two ready-made prairie aborigines in front of them. They all looked at the two curiously, hoping that the two of them would solve their doubts. Qiu Liju looked at Tanshi Tuolan and saw that she had returned to her usual coldness.  , had to cough lightly and said: "On the grassland, the strong are respected, but at the same time, they compete with each other and invade each other.  Within the tribe, there may be 120,000 unity, but between tribes, there are always irreconcilable conflicts.  This is a unique survival rule on the grassland for a long time. Everyone has their own territory and follows ancient rules.  Within the territory, they unite and help each other, but between territories, they are like water and fire.  " "Rule of survival?  "Everyone looked weird. How old is this, and there is still such an ancient custom? Do you think you are a beast? Huang Zhong nodded secretly. Qiu Liju's words are similar to what Tanshi Tuolan said about territorial awareness.  , all have obvious tribal characteristics. Qiu Liju continued: "Don't underestimate this ancient rule.  ?It was the vast grassland that allowed the tribes on the grassland to survive the long battles; but it was this long-term battle test that made almost all the herdsmen on the grassland become soldiers.  And their warriors are all top-notch, and their swordsmanship and archery skills are all astonishing.  This is also the reason why the barbarians on the grassland can invade the Han repeatedly, but the Han Dynasty has no way to deal with the barbarians.  Therefore, although the grassland is very backward, the combat power of each tribe is not bad at all!  Especially since we are in the grassland and have the advantage of being at home in the grassland, we should be more careful.  " After listening to what Qiu Liju said, everyone had a new understanding of the Mobei grassland. Liu Yi's expression became more solemn and he said in a deep voice: "So, this Northern Expedition is still troublesome.  No wonder Huo Qubing only temporarily captured Mobei with a million troops, but more than ten years later, he was snatched back by the barbarians.  This Northern Expedition should be carefully planned.  "(To be continued.
