What Guo Peng wants to express is very clear.

I'm going to destroy you.

There is no other way.

Guiyi Shanyu's scalp was numb and his brain was confused.

Before he could clear his thoughts, Guo Peng had already cast the heads of the Huns who had been cut off before into Jingguan outside Jiuyuan County, showing off his military power to the Huns in the city.

And warn them that resistance will only bring about more ruthless killing, surrender, and a glimmer of hope.

Where did Guiyi Shanyu dare to surrender?

On the sixth day of the 10th month, Guiyi Shanyu made a desperate bet and sent troops out of the city to attack Guo Peng, and fought against Guo Peng.

Guo Peng was prepared and ordered Zhao Yun, Guo Dong, Cao Xiu, Cao Hong and Cao Chun to lead the troops to fight back. After a fierce field battle, he defeated the Xiongnu army, beheaded more than 6,000, and captured more than 10,000.

On the eighth day of October, Guo Peng led his troops to attack Jiuyuan County.

After the disastrous defeat, Guiyi Shanyu could only grit his teeth and defend the city, launching troops to defend the city to resist Guo Peng's attack.

Guo Peng intended to try Xun You's ability, so he asked Xun You to command this siege battle with confidence.

Xun You was not vague, and stood up calmly, and arranged forty trenchers directly. He bombarded the Huns for two consecutive days, and the city walls were broken and morale declined to the extreme.

On October 13th, at the third hour of the Chen Dynasty, Xun You ordered the army after eating to launch a full-scale attack.

The Wuwan people in the army were ordered to be disembarked by Xun You, and they first defeated the morale of the Huns with thunder and thunder, making them feel that the Wei army was like a god's help. Then the entire army attacked and climbed the city wall along the ladder to launch a fierce hand-to-hand battle with the Huns.

The Wei army, wearing excellent armor, and most of the Xiongnu soldiers wearing ordinary fur clothes, started an extremely fierce battle on the top of the city. The Wei army pressed forward step by step, and the Xiongnu soldiers did not dare to ignore their lives in order to survive.

The equipment of the Xiongnu defenders was quite similar to that of the Wei army, and there were also swords and shields, but the quality was much different from that of the Wei army. When swords and swords were fighting each other, the Wei army's swords were more lasting, while the swords of the Xiongnu soldiers were easily cut off.

The war was fought from morning to dusk, and the Huns tried their best and did their best to resist the Wei army's attack.

In order to win, Guo Peng allowed Xun You to mobilize the Tiger Guards, Xun Yong ordered Xu Chu and Dian Wei to be put into battle, and the Tiger Guards invested two-thirds of the Tiger Guards.

Two big men, as strong as cows, joined the battlefield with thousands of Tiger Guards, and the ones killed were blood flowing into rivers and corpses piled up like mountains.

Finally, in the afternoon, the Huns collapsed. The Wei army expanded the results in one breath and entered the stage of harvesting lives. The Huns' resistance completely failed and Jiuyuan County was liberated.

Xun You commanded the battle for the first time, and at the beginning it was a bit awkward, but he quickly adjusted it.

He has a big heart, calm and composed in the face of danger, and is a rare military talent.

Guo Peng has to admit that in this era, the most top talents often appear among the top wealthy families, and their existence and power lies in their own abilities.

There are not many such people, but there are definitely many, and Xun You is one of them.

With Guo Peng's support, Xun You calmly dispatched tens of thousands of troops, and issued different instructions to the generals of each army, specifying time, what tasks to achieve, where to attack after breaking into the city, what to occupy, how to capture the enemy, etc.

In a short period of time, he fully demonstrated the art of commanding like a fish in water, and he was genius.

There are so many talents in the world, how can I not use them for my own use?

Seeing Xun You acting calmly, Guo Peng smiled with satisfaction.

The war was basically over, the Southern Xiongnu were defeated, and the families of the Huns who migrated and fled with Guiyi Shanyu were in trouble.

Losing the protection of the army, they all became trophys. They tried to escape with the elderly and the young, but were caught by the Wei army roaring on horseback. Most of them were captured and they didn't even have time to escape.

The final result was that more than 10,000 soldiers of the Southern Xiongnu were killed, more than 100,000 men and women were captured, more than 300,000 livestock were captured, and all the items of the Southern Xiongnu nobles such as fur and bone products were seized.

Guiyi Shanyu fled to Yiliang County with only a few hundred remaining soldiers. Guo Peng ordered Zhao Yun and Cao Xiu and Cao Chun to lead the troops to chase him, but he stayed to sort out the results.

In addition to Guiyi Shanyu, the major prominent figures in the Southern Xiongnu Shanyu Court were either killed by the Wei army or captured, and then ordered to be killed by Guo Peng, without even one person left.

The troops were sent in mid-September, and it was mid-October. In one month, Guo Peng successfully wiped out the Southern Xiongnu tribes entrenched in the northern part of Bingzhou, and the progress was rapid.

The resisters were killed and the rest of their tribes were captured. The Southern Xiongnu were actually destroyed, leaving only Guiyi Shanyu, a commander who could no longer cause any big waves.

Guo Peng ordered the captured prisoners of the Southern Xiongnu tribe to be dealt with in batches.

The young and old who cannot be used immediately will be killed. The young and young men will be reorganized as hard labor, while the young and young women will be reorganized and will be incorporated into the Han people as a member of the Han people. They will be given to poor bachelors who cannot afford to marry their wives as wives, so that they can reproduce offspring and increase the population.

The population of the Han Dynasty was still very lost. If there was not enough population in the future, Guo Peng would find it difficult to develop and utilize the Jiangnan region.

Anyway, prisoners must play the role of prisoners, otherwise they will waste their food.

At the same time, Guo Peng also selected a group of young and strong men and women to give to Nanlou, as a reward for sending troops to Nanlou to help fight, so that Nanlou could bring these men and women back to use as slaves.

Nanlou was very happy and accepted Guo Peng's return, and then continued to follow Guo Peng along the Yellow River to recover the Wuyuan County and counties along the way one by one.

The war time has passed, and the next is garbage time. It will take time to restore Wuyuan County and Shuofang County. Along the way, you will encounter Zahu who live here, as well as a small number of Xianbei and Wuhuan people, and Guo Peng's policies are the same.

Those who surrendered were exempted from death, and those who did not surrender were eliminated on the spot. They marched and killed all the way, swept away all the miscellaneous he encountered along the way, easily took down the counties and towns, and advanced along the Yellow River to the middle and upper reaches of the Yellow River.

Zhao Yun and Cao Chun and Cao Xiu captured Guiyi Shanyu dozens of miles west of Xi'anyang, captured him alive, and brought him back to present him to Guo Peng.

Guo Peng was overjoyed.

Faced with Guiyi Shanyu's begging for mercy, Guo Peng was not ruthless at all and directly ordered Guiyi Shanyu to be executed.

I have worked so hard to fight for so long, in order to eliminate all of you and stop chasing the border. Invalid mercy is unnecessary, redundant, and extremely wrong policy.

Guo Peng wants to help those people correct their mistakes.

Bingzhou is the first step, to eliminate the entire Bingzhou Mihu, reset the rule in Bingzhou, strengthen management and garrison, and start raising horses on a large scale with the help of the grassland advantages in the northern Bingzhou. This is Guo Peng's established strategy.
