Kebineng was beheaded in front of the formation, causing the Xianbei Huqi, who were already somewhat disorganized, to be instantly defeated.

The Yi Cong Hu cavalry chased them to the north, and many Xianbei Hu people were driven into the river. Countless people were drowned and their corpses were floating in the river.

After the war, Governor Feng, as he had said before the war, collected enough war horses and selected 5,000 meritorious men from among the Hu cavalry.

They were promised that they could continue to the west, go to Gaoque, and plunder the Xianbei Hu tribes.

After this battle, tribes with more than a thousand riders were temporarily organized in the area south of Yinshan Mountain in a short period of time, and were wiped out.

Five thousand righteous followers are enough to ride wildly without restraint.

Time was running out, and after defeating Ke Bineng, Governor Feng had no time to slowly clean up the mess.

He summoned everyone and ordered:

"Liu Liang is responsible for which of the tribes that originally relied on Kebineng can be used by the Han Dynasty. How to gather them together."

Liu Liang was overjoyed when he heard this:

"Liang Ding lives up to your expectations!"

I have been a grandson here in Yinshan for so long, and now things are changing. Let’s see how I can show my talents.

Governor Feng looked at Xu Xun again:

"Xu Xun, you will command these five thousand Huqi and stay in Yinshan to see if we can raise more food and grass, just in case."

Xu Xun quickly agreed, and then asked slightly hesitantly:

"Do you intend to leave these five thousand Huqi alone in Yinshan Mountain?"

"Yes, what's the problem?"

"Your Majesty, the Hu people have never been trustworthy. They are still obedient under the restraints of the Junhou. If the Junhou leads the army to leave, Yinshan is a place where the Hu people gather. Just in case..."

Hearing this, Governor Feng smiled slightly:

"Yuande can rest assured that the relatives of Yi Congjun are far away in Liangzhou, and there are military commanders in each army. Who among those leaders would dare to have second thoughts?"

"Even if they want to rebel, who will support them?"

Let Liangzhou's good days go by and go to the desert to eat the wind and sand?

Some leaders may have such thoughts, but who among the people below would be willing?

Besides, even if they rebel, where can they find tribes that support them?

You can’t count on the Xianbei barbarians in the Yinshan Mountains, right?

First there was the Qiaoshan massacre, and then there was the battle in Wuyuan County, when the hatred between the two sides was in full swing.

Liu Liang appeased Ke Bineng's old troops, and Xu Xun looked at Yi Cong and Hu Qi. As long as the two sides can maintain a balance for two or three months, it will be enough. By then, Guanzhong will almost be able to decide the winner.

Although Xu Xun had been the logistics staff officer of the Liangzhou Army for a long time, he had never led an army before, so he was a little worried.

Hearing Governor Feng's explanation at this time, he breathed a sigh of relief:

"It turns out that Junhou had already planned it, but I was too cautious."

Just when Governor Feng led his army back to the north and swept away the barbarians in the Yinshan Mountains, the court in Luoyang was filled with joy.

Cao Rui circulated the memorial sent back by Sima Yi to the ministers and said with a smile:

"It is said that Thief Feng is cunning and has never failed. When Guanzhong heard about it, his expression changed. I didn't expect that this time I met Da Sima, but he came back without success. I am really happy."

Cao Rui's health has never been very good. In addition, in the past few years, he has been addicted to drinking and excessive sexual indulgence, which has made his body increasingly weak.

Especially when they heard that the Shu captives mobilized the whole country to invade Guanzhong, the people of Wei State were panicked.

As a result, Cao Rui's mood has been extremely bad for more than two months.

After all, after the Battle of Longyou, the Wei Dynasty first lost Longyou and then Liangzhou.

In the battle of Xiaoguan, Feng's thieves defeated the many with a small number, and became famous all over the world. It can be regarded as a turning point in the strategic situation of Shu and Wei.

After Liu Bei's defeat at Yiling, during the ten years when the war between Shu and Wei resumed, the Wei Dynasty suffered repeated defeats.

Not to mention that many people in Guanzhong are as afraid of Shu as a tiger, even in Luoyang there are also many people who are muttering in their hearts:

Over the years, the military strength of the Shu captives has become more and more powerful, and the Feng rebels have conquered all the power in the world. In addition, I heard that Hanzhong is also prosperous in culture. Is it true that Liu Han has not exhausted his power?

Nanxiang paper was brought to Luoyang by caravans in the early years and has been sought after from the beginning.

It has the reputation of being "smooth and smooth, far superior to Cai paper".

The land of Shu is well equipped with both civil and military forces, so no wonder some people have such thoughts.

Therefore, it is not difficult to understand that many people are worried about the fact that Shu is determined to win Guanzhong this time.

It may be that the kidney qi is too weak, which makes the deficiency fire more likely to rise. Cao Rui's temper has become more and more irritable these days.

Fortunately, there is a goddess in the harem who can bring relaxation and pleasure to His Majesty, and often turns His anger into joy.

But as a result, the already frail emperor often looked pale.

At this time, Cao Rui's pale face showed a rare rosy color, showing the happiness in his heart.

"General Qin Qi (Qin Lang) strategized and forced the An Ding bandit army to retreat without fighting. He has the style of a general."

"The Feng thief is tyrannical and the barbarians are unjust. They agreed to go south, but they got into a fight on the way. Now that the Feng thief has withdrawn from Qiaoshan, he must be afraid that his retreat will be cut off by Ke Bineng, so he is eager to lead his army back north."

Cao Rui said excitedly, "The Shu captives came in three groups, and both groups will be defeated without a fight. I believe that soon, the Ge thieves will also have to retreat southward to Hanzhong."

Seeing this, Jiang Ji, the Central Protector, stepped forward and said:

"Your Majesty, although Thief Feng led his army back to the north, he still had people stay at Qiaoshan to capture the generals of Shu. This thief is the most cunning."

"Therefore, since all the thieves have not evacuated from Qiaoshan, it is not yet certain that Feng Thief has retreated. We should be more careful."

Cao Rui laughed and said:

"In my opinion, Thief Feng's move is exactly cunning. If he leads all the troops to withdraw from Qiaoshan at once, it will expose the unstable morale of the army."

"When the time comes, there will be Kebi in the north who can stop him from returning. If the Wei Dynasty follows him, and Feng is attacked from both sides, won't he become a trapped beast by then?"

"Therefore, it is best to leave some of the thieves to guard Qiaoshan, so that they can safely return north to open up a retreat, and then allow the Qiaoshan thieves to retreat slowly."

He saw that Jiang Ji still had something to say and knew what he was thinking, so he explained:

"Don't worry, sir. There is a big commander in Guanzhong now. The main purpose is to drive away the enemy invaders. He will not let the soldiers attack easily to avoid falling into the thieves' plan."

Jiang Ji then retreated.

Cao Rui sighed inwardly.

If it had been ten years ago, even if Guo Huai didn't want to pursue him, he would have personally ordered Wei Jingqi to pursue him.

only……

well!

Thief Feng crossed the desert and came from the north. He must have brought his cavalry with him.

Even the elite cavalry of the Wei Dynasty had to avoid their sharp edges when faced with the cavalry led by Feng Thief.

Wei Jingqi really wants to chase out Qiaoshan and meet Feng Thief in the desert. It is not certain who will chase whom.

Yang Ji, the leader of the army, came out and said:

"Previously, His Majesty ordered the recruitment of soldiers from Hebei Province. The troops have arrived in Hanoi County. Now the situation has changed. I wonder if we should continue to reinforce Guanzhong or make other arrangements?"

Cao Rui pondered for a moment and said:

"Although the Shu captives have retreated in two directions, the Ge rebels still have a hundred thousand people stationed in Wuzhangyuan. Don't be careless."

At this point, he paused, "It's just that if the soldiers from Hebei are allowed to continue to reinforce Guanzhong, it will be a waste of money and food."

"Why don't we station ourselves in Hanoi temporarily? If something happens in Guanzhong later, reinforcements can be sent at any time."

"Secondly, we don't have to use too much troops and troops. We can also save some money and food. We can wait until the Ge thieves are defeated and then stop the army."

Although he said it easily in front of everyone, Cao Rui knew in his heart that Jiang Ji's reminder was indeed very reasonable.

It seems that Feng Thief has left Qiaoshan and headed north to open his own way back, but as long as the Shu captives do not completely withdraw from Qiaoshan in one day, they cannot take it lightly.

More importantly, last year, Jingzhou also seized a letter from Sun Quan to Ge Thief, which contained an agreement between the two parties to jointly send troops to invade Xinjiang.

Now the Shu captives have indeed come as promised, but the Wu invaders have not seen any movement, so we must be on guard against this.

In this battle in Guanzhong, the only thing that can be resolved is if Feng Thief and Ke Bi can fight. No matter which side wins, it will be a good thing for the Wei Dynasty.

It would be best if the Feng thieves were defeated and tens of thousands of Shu captives' elite troops were buried in the desert. In this case, it would really be God's blessing for the Wei Dynasty.

However, Cao Rui has no hope for this.

After all, even the fine cavalry of the Wei Dynasty were defeated miserably at the hands of Feng Thief, and how could Kebineng defeat the iron cavalry in Feng Thief's hands?

However, if Kebineng is defeated by Feng Thief, it will also help the Wei Dynasty solve a potential threat from the north.

Cao Rui's thoughts are quite good this time.

If it had been anyone else, things would have gone exactly as he wanted.

It's a pity that what he met was a bumpkin who crossed illegally, a bumpkin who had more than 1,800 years of experience.
