"If this Shanyu hadn't killed Xing Ju together with the Xianbei people, how could you have ascended to the post of captain of Wuhuan?"
"Now you are so courageous. With Yang Ling as your support, you dare to be so rude in front of this Shanyu!"
"Aren't you afraid that I will kill you?!"
Tadun Shanyu's face was gloomy, his eyes full of cold murderous intent.
The surrounding Wuhuan guards had their hands on the scimitars at their waists.
As soon as Tadun gives the order, they will pounce on Yan Rou and hack him to death!
"Of course I'm afraid of death."
Yan Rou smiled calmly,
"But I am an official of the Han Dynasty, and I should do my best for the court."
"I would also like to advise Lord Shanyu not to go his own way, lest you end up like Yuan Shang and Yuan Tan!"
"Oh, by the way, before leaving, General Wu Guan Zhonglang also asked me to tell Master Shan Yu."
Tadun Shanyu was stunned for a moment and subconsciously said,
"What words?"
"Those who offend China will be punished no matter how far away they are!"
Yan Rou said every word.
His voice was loud, sonorous and powerful, and the faces of the Wuhuan people present could not help but change!
"I've finished my words. You can kill or cut into pieces as you please, Lord Shanyu."
Yan Rou smiled lightly.
"Arrogant!"
"court death!"
"Master Shanyu, kill him!"
A group of Wuhuan nobles immediately started making noises.
But Tadun Chanyu's expression was gloomy and uncertain, and he sneered after a long time,
"What an arrogant Yang Ling!"
"I won't kill you today, but I won't hand over Yuan Xi either."
"Go back and tell Yang Ling that if he has the ability, he will take Yuan Xi back himself!"
Yan Rou stood up and took a deep look at Tadun Shanyu.
"Master Shanyu, you will one day pay the price for your decision today!"
Looking at Yan Rou's leaving figure, Tadun Shanyu smiled disdainfully.
With his current strength, a mere Yang Ling would still be looked down upon.
…
A few days later.
Ji County.
"Then did Tadun really say that?"
Yang Ling tapped the table lightly and said calmly.
"My subordinates dare not hide anything. Tadun is indeed so arrogant."
Yan Rou said respectfully.
"A barbarian leader dares to be so arrogant. It seems he is tired of living. Soon, I will let him say the harshest words and receive the most painful beatings!"
Yang Ling turned around and played.
Just kidding, don’t look at the Eastern Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms period, when the Central Plains region was in turmoil.
But it is easy to deal with barbarians like Wuhuan and Xianbei!
"Military advisor, why don't you let the last general lead the troops to attack this ignorant Tadun!"
Gan Ning, who had always been belligerent, stood up decisively to ask for help.
Yang Ling thought for a while, shook his head and said,
"It's not necessary at the moment."
Now that he has just captured Youzhou, although most of the counties are looking forward to it, the aftermath is still quite troublesome.
Moreover, there are still a handful of Yuan's subordinates who are still clinging to the city to defend the city.
This all takes time to process.
Therefore, Yang Ling could only put Wuhuan's affairs aside for the time being, and instead deal with Youzhou's affairs.
…
In the next period of time, Yang Ling reused Xian Yufu, Tian Yu and others.
With their help, Youzhou was managed in an orderly manner, and there were no disturbances caused by the change of rulers.
At the same time, Cao Cao also sent an official document in the name of the imperial court.
In his official documents, he also generously rewarded the officials who contributed to the Youzhou War.
Of course, the number one hero of the reward is naturally Cao Pi.
But Yang Ling didn't really care about this.
Just when everything was on track in Youzhou and Yang Ling was thinking about returning to Xudu, something unexpected happened suddenly.
…
Yuyang County.
Guangping County.
It is a hot summer day, and although the crops in the fields are not yet mature, the diligent farmers are still working in the fields.
On the bluestone by the stream not far away, several village women were washing their clothes and chatting.
Several young children were laughing and playing in the shade of a nearby tree.
It's really a quiet and peaceful scene.
Suddenly, the earth shook faintly, and a faint "rumbling" sound was heard.
The working people all stopped what they were doing and looked extremely confused.
However, after a moment, they finally understood where the movement came from.
I saw a cavalry on the horizon not far away, charging towards this side menacingly!
Although because of Yuan Shao, Youzhou was rarely robbed by barbarians.
But among the people present, some still recognized the other party’s origins at a glance!
"They are from Wuhuan!"
"Hurry into the city!"
People dropped their belongings and fled toward the county seat.
Suddenly, the sound of panic, the screams of women, and the cries of children filled the sky!
The originally quiet and peaceful environment was shattered in an instant!
But in the blink of an eye, the Wuhuan cavalry rushed forward.
Seeing the people of the Han Dynasty fleeing in embarrassment, Wuyan, the king of Hanlu who was responsible for the robbery, couldn't help shouting excitedly,
"Quick, don't let them escape!"
The Wuhuan people behind him also screamed and rushed forward.
Yupingcheng is just a small city.
Most of the troops in the city are sword archers responsible for maintaining law and order and arresting bandits.
Before they could close the city gate, the Wuhuan people rushed in!
Facing the elite Wuhuan cavalry, the sword archers in the city were no match at all.
But in the blink of an eye, they suffered heavy casualties.
The remaining people dropped their weapons and knelt down to beg for mercy.
But the Wuhuan people would not be merciful. They waved their scimitars and killed them one after another!
It's not over yet!
The Wuhuan people with red eyes started galloping through the streets of the city.
Whenever people of the Han Dynasty are seen, they will be killed without mercy!
There are even some crazy people who behave like animals to women on the street!
After King Wuyan of Khanlu saw it, instead of stopping him, he burst into laughter.
He even ordered,
"Come here, kill all the men in the city, and take the women and children back to be slaves!"
Following such an order, the entire city of Guangping instantly flowed with blood, and the sky and the earth even turned blood red!
After ransacking the entire city of Guangping, Wu Yan still had some unfinished ideas.
Before leaving, he even ordered the city to be set on fire!
Two days later, when Yang Ling received news of Wuhuan's invasion and came with troops to support him, he was left with only a scorched city!
"Reporting to General Wu Guanzhong, more than 5,000 households in the city... were all killed, with no one left alive."
Looking at Yang Ling's cold expression, Tian Yu said cautiously.
"Damn you bastards! Don't fall into my hands, otherwise they won't be able to reap the benefits!"
Gan Ning was so angry that he pulled out the long knife from his waist and chopped at the plants on the ground randomly!
Yang Ling took a deep breath and said every word,
"If I don't take this revenge, I, Yang Ling, will never be a human being!"
