In Luntai City, Chu Tian learned from Xueyue that the Tuoba Xianbei was in Bingzhou and tried to take advantage of the empty Bingzhou military force to annex Bingzhou, so he hurriedly mobilized his troops.

Chu Tian's power is not short of civil servants and military generals, so even if Chu Tian is not in the pass, he still has enough manpower and material resources to suppress tribes that appear within the sphere of influence.

Chutian annexed prefecture, Hetao, Monan and other places, which was equivalent to Mingguan annexing of Fuyu Kingdom, like the Heilongjiang River Basin. During this national war, some territory brought trouble to itself.

But Bingzhou, Hetao, Monan, and Chutian cannot refuse it, nor can they sit idly by and watch the Tuoba Xianbei establish a Dai country or a Wei country in Bingzhou. They must suppress it before establishing a kingdom!

Xueyue had mobilized Yue Fei's Bingzhou army, Beiwei, invincible and powerful three armies to suppress the Tuoba Xianbei.

With Yue Fei's ability and cooperating with Yang Ye and Zhang Liao, two cavalry generals who are good at cavalry raids, are enough to give Tuoba Xianbei a headache.

According to the agreement of the five major civilizations, when the ice and snow melt next year, troops will be sent to attack Temujin's forces at the same time. Temujin seems to want to take the lead before the five major civilization coalition forces start to take action.

Huo'an from the Western Regions Protectorate was actively looking for opportunities and actively breaking the situation.

Huoan planned to quickly sweep north of the Tianshan Mountains by cavalry raids in the cold winter, forcing the tribes under Subutai to withdraw from the Western Regions.

Chu Tian lent Wei Qing's Yulin Legion to Huo An to participate in this surprise attack.

Wei Qing's Yulin Legion had about 50,000 cavalrymen.

Huoan took advantage of the reason that Temujin and the two major Khanate invaded the Western Regions, and some nobles from the 36 countries of the Western Regions betrayed the Protectorate, and eliminated the nobles who were dissatisfied with him in the Western Regions, sent officials to replace the nobles from the 36 countries of the Western Regions, and collected taxes and recruited troops.

As long as they have the right to collect taxes and military power, the nobles of the thirty-six countries will be equivalent to being undermined by officials of the Protectorate's Office.

The current relationship between the nobles of the thirty-six countries and Huo'an is similar to the relationship between the aristocratic families and the state governors who control military forces in the Central Plains.

Huoan recruited soldiers from the military farmland area directly controlled by the Western Regions Protectorate and various vassal states to make up for the losses of the Western Regions Protectorate in the war with Temujin and the two major Khanates, so that the Western Regions Protectorate quickly restored its troops.

At present, the Western Regions Protectorate has forcibly recruited 200,000 soldiers, most of which are new soldiers and servants.

Huoan selected 50,000 relatively elite troops from these cavalry and handed them over to Huo Qubing to recover the Wusun Kingdom north of the Tianshan Mountains.

The remaining new recruits and servants defended each city, focusing on guarding.

The Wusun Kingdom has a large population and a relatively strong military force. It should have been an important source of military force for Huo'an. However, now the Wusun King is controlled by Ogedei, and the Wusun Kingdom has become a vassal state of the Mongol Empire, providing a servant army for the Mongol Empire.

The recovery of the Wusun Kingdom and the reinstatement of the Western Regions Protectorate was equivalent to allowing the Protectorate to regain this important tax and military vassal state.

The vassal states of both sides have increased and decreased, which has a significant impact on the situation of the war.

"Huo Qubing 50,000, Wei Qing 50,000, is enough to defeat Subutai. Although Subutai is the title of King of Field War, it is hard to defeat four hands with two fists, let alone Subutai has a fatal weakness..."

Huo'an received help from Wei Qing, and his confidence increased greatly.

This is the double walls of the Han Empire, with 100,000 light cavalry on an expedition, which is equivalent to the dream lineup of the Battle of Mobei!

Moreover, this lineup is more luxurious in a sense than the Battle of Mobei.

The Wei Qing Legion also has the help of the powerful general Xue Wanche.

In Huo Qubing's army, in addition to Zhao Ponu, Huo An asked Chen Tang to help.

Chen Tang is a cruel person.

Those who offend our great Han Dynasty will be punished even if they are far away, and this person's mouth comes from this person.

Although the Huns during the Chen Tang period were no longer Huo Qubing and were strong during the Wei Qing period, Chen Tang and Gan Yanshou had 40,000 Western Regions Protectorate Army to kill the Northern Xiongnu Zhizhi Shanyu, with 40,000 troops.

"Lu Bu, Zhang Xiu, you two lead 10,000 cavalry to help the two generals."

Although the old Qin of the Qianran had no interest in the Western Regions Protectorate, he still sent 10,000 cavalry and powerful general Lu Bu to help.

Lu Bu should be good at light cavalry raids, and his own force is enough to protect the safety of Wei Qing and Huo Qubing.

"Here."

Although Lu Bu was a little reluctant, he still had to follow Wei Qing and Huo Qubing to fight. It seemed that his status was under Wei Qing and Huo Qubing.

In terms of force alone, Wei Qing and Huo Qubing will be killed by Lu Bu even if they join forces.

However, if we talk about the large cavalry battles in the Western Regions and raiding thousands of miles, then Wei Qing and Huo Qubing were eighteen streets away from Lu Bu.

Three people, different types.

Chu Tian was curious about what Huo An hadn't finished saying just now: "Subutai's cavalry is almost impeccable. What are his fatal shortcomings?"

"Temujin Mobei cannot support so many people at all, so you should know what it means to migrate two million tribes to the Altai Mountains and Tianshan area. Subutai needs to protect these tribes."

"After a war, the population losses of hundreds of thousands. If Wei Qing and Huo Qubing can capture the population guarded by Subutai, then it can supplement the population losses of the Western Regions Protectorate. For such a light cavalry, he will be very uncomfortable to protect the population of the tribe."

Huo An told the reason.

In short, this time facing Wei Qing and Huo Qubing's attack, Su Butai was the passive side.

The Han Empire was in an advantage and entered the counterattack stage, so the Han Empire naturally had the initiative, while Temujin and his subordinates were in a passive position everywhere.

That's why Temujin wanted to open up the situation in Central Asia or West Asia and regain the initiative.

However, Huo An and others would not let Temujin take the initiative so easily.

Temujin actively put himself in an offensive, and the princes of the Han Empire were also planning to take the initiative.

"I see."

Chu Tian thought that if the Western Regions Protectorate could annex Subutai and bring two million people to the Western Regions, there were many herders who were good at riding and shooting among this group of tribes, then the Western Regions Protectorate could make up for the lost population.

Huoan probably has long been interested in Subutai's population.

In an era when the population is dominated by cold weapons, it is resources. Not to mention, the population of Subutai is a qualified source of cavalry.

"We must be careful during this expedition."

When Chu Tian saw the snow covered, he sent Wei Qing, Gongsun Ao, Xue Wanche and others to go to war, and couldn't help but worry about the safety of Wei Qing and others.

It is quite risky to conduct a thousand-mile raid in the cold winter.

"My lord, please don't worry, Wei Qing will definitely return to victory."

Wei Qing put on a white robe and merged with the white snow.

In the cold winter, white robe is easier to hide people's eyes and ears.

"Zilong, you follow General Wei Qing."

Chu Tian was still worried and sent the relatively calm Zhao Yun to protect Wei Qing.

As the commander of the cavalry under Chu Tian, ​​Wei Qing is different from Huo Qubing. His military power is not high. If Wei Qing is damaged, Chu Tian will probably cry without tears.

As a powerful general in the early Tang Dynasty, Xue Wanche had a force of 95, and should have been able to protect Wei Qing.

But Wei Qing's Yulin Legion needed a vanguard general, and Emperor Taizong of Tang Dynasty Li Shimin's evaluation of Xue Wanche was very classic. If he did not win a big victory, he would lose a big defeat.

In other words, Xue Wanche, as a powerful general, performed very unstablely.

It is precisely because of this that Chu Tian sent an additional calm Zhao Yun just in case.

Bai Ma Yicong followed Zhao Yun and acted together, serving as Wei Qing's guard and cavalry reserve team.

The military strength and combat power of the Wei Qing Legion were strengthened.

In this way, the lineup north of the Expedition Mountains is even more luxurious.

Wei Qing, Zhao Yun, Gongsun Ao, Xue Wanche, Huo Qubing, Zhao Ponu, Chen Tang, Lu Bu, and Zhang Xiu are almost all cavalry heroes.

Cavalry is a group of troops that create miracles.

"Huo Qubing, you must be careful. Come back to see me alive, and it is best to bring your head back with you."

Huo An advised Huo Qubing before he left.

Huo Qubing said cheerfully: "The last general cannot guarantee that he can win the first place of Subutai, but he can guarantee to the lord that he will defeat Subutai and obtain his population, cattle and sheep!"

"Okay, this time, Wei Qing is the head coach, and everything is under Wei Qing's command."

Before leaving, Huo An determined that Wei Qing sent by Chu Tian was the head coach, while Huo Qubing served as deputy coach and Lu Bu served as vanguard.

Relatively speaking, Wei Qing's character is calm, while Huo Qubing is still relatively risky, so the probability of failure of the expedition will be relatively reduced if the calm Wei Qing is the head coach.

"Sir, say goodbye."

Wei Qing, Huo Qubing and others bid farewell to a group of great figures from the Han Empire, turned on their horses, and embarked on an expedition to the northern foot of the Tianshan Mountains.

"The bright moon in the Qin Dynasty was the Han Dynasty, and the people of the Long March had not returned."

Chu Tian saw the 110,000 army marching on the snow and gradually moving away. He could only see the military flag, and he couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

Although the Han Empire teamed up to attack, for Wei Qing and Huo Qubing, this was also their most difficult battle.

Subutai can choose herders to change from a tribe of two million people to cavalry. At the same time, Subutai must be the commander of the imperial cavalry, which is comparable to Wei Qing and Huo Qubing.

There is also a 25% system bonus in Subutai, and the Mongolian cavalry are not afraid of fighting in the cold winter because they have adapted to the cold winter climate of the Mongolian Plateau. For them, the cold winter in the Tianshan Mountains is nothing more than that.

Wei Qing and Huo Qubing also had to bypass the Tianshan Mountains covered by ice and snow, marched from the southern foot to the northern foot, and fought all the way to Mount Altai.

Therefore, for Wei Qing and Huo Qubing, this is a hard battle, not inferior to the Battle of Mobei.

Their opponent is much stronger than the Yizhixie Chanyu of the Xiongnu.

"We cannot relax, Wei Qing, Huo Qubing, Lu Bu and others went to war. The meeting of kings held by Temujin poses a great threat to us."

After the 110,000 expeditionary force of Qianran Lao Qin watched Wei Qing, Huo Qubing and Lu Bu left, he did not relax.

Wei Qing and Huo Qubing carried out an expedition, with their mission - they once again defeated the powerful enemies for the Han Empire.
