Maybe it's because Zhao Yu's soldiers and horses are too strong, or maybe it's because Bingzhou has been attacked by Zhao Yu's soldiers and horses many times, and the entire Taiyuan City actually heard that Zhao Yu personally went out to fight and closed the door, especially after facing Zhao Yu's siege, some people even sounded their intention to surrender.Especially after Li Xin led everyone to retreat to Taiyuan City, some Xuanwutang soldiers who stayed in the city played their roles one after another when they learned that the army of Army B was approaching the city, and began to spread rumors in the city.It is said that Liu Bei attacked Hanzhong, Guan Yu attacked Fancheng, Cao Cao imprisoned the Southern Xiongnu Shan Yu Huchuquan but let him escape, and the entire Southern Xiongnu joined forces with the Zhao Yu Alliance.The Southern Xiongnu army is marching into Yanmen Pass at the moment, once it breaks through Yanmen Pass, it will wave its army all the way into Taiyuan, and all the men will be killed, and all the women will be reduced to slaves.If you surrender to King Zhao at this moment, you will not only be able to avoid death, but also live and work in peace and contentment under King Zhao, and you will no longer have to be involved in the war.Since ancient times, rumors spread rapidly, and with the effect of spreading ten or ten to hundreds, many people in the city rushed to the streets, almost wanting to encourage the soldiers defending the city to open the city gate and surrender.For those Cao soldiers who guarded Taiyuan, it can be described as miserable, and it is a capital crime to escape from the battle.But now everyone in the city rumors that the Southern Xiongnu and Zhao Yu joined forces, and the armies of both sides attacked at the same time.If they break through the city gate, they will definitely be threatened with the slaughter of the city, and if they surrender Zhao Yu at this moment, it will be a life.After repeated hesitation, the Cao soldiers who guarded the city gate opened the city gate without authorization to welcome Zhao Yu's army into the city, so that Zhao Yu's soldiers captured the entire Taiyuan without blood.Now Zhao Yuqi has won the victory and won Shangdang and Taiyuan respectively, which can be regarded as opening a channel for attacking and merging states.And just when Zhao Yu led the army to gather in Taiyuan, while appeasing the people and the surrendered sergeants, while discussing the next step of the army plan with everyone, there was good news from the north.Under Guo Jia's strategy, Ma Chao and others broke through Yanmen Pass with just one attack, of course, the assistance of the Southern Xiongnu was indispensable.After Guo Jia docked with Hu Chuquan, he asked all the people of Hu Chuquan to attack with the army, but they did not need to participate in the war.Moreover, Guo Jia ordered Ma Chao, Ma Xiu, Ma Tie, Ma Dai and Gao Lan to lead 10,000 cavalry respectively, and they were lined up all the time, which was a full 60,000 uniformly organized cavalry, and there were tens of thousands of trapped camps led by Gao Shun on the side.The army stood in front of Yanmen Pass and marched forward in unison, declaring their strength and strength to the defenders of Yanmen Pass and the Southern Xiongnu clan, especially when the 100,000 army marched in unison and shouted "kill, kill, kill", the defenders of Yanmen Pass only felt that the city gate was trembling.Especially after the guards saw that there were not only ghost talents Guo Jia who came to attack the city, but also Ma Chao, who killed his Wei king Cao Cao and abandoned his robe, and the entire Southern Xiongnu, everyone lost their defensive heart.Under a charge of the Zhao army and the Southern Xiongnu army, Yanmen Pass was broken without attack.After the Yanmen Pass was breached, Guo Jia ordered Gao Ran to lead 10,000 soldiers and horses to defend this place, and the army of the Southern Xiongnu was all dismissed by Guo Jia.As far as Guo Jia's intention is concerned, after attacking Yanmen Pass, it is the territory of the Han Dynasty, and if these Southern Xiongnu soldiers are brought into the Han Dynasty to attack the city, it is inevitable that there will be some riots.In the face of Guo Jia's meaning, Hu Chuquan did not dare to have any objections, and after expressing his allegiance to Guo Jia, he led the army to withdraw from the land of the state and return to the territory of the Southern Xiongnu.In addition, Guo Jia also indicated to him that once he took the entire annexed state, King Zhao would personally discuss with Hu Chuquan about the matter of improving the lives of the people of the Southern Xiongnu, which is why Hu Chuquan was so obedient.Of course, this is only one of the points, and the other point is that when he followed King Zhao's army to attack the city this time, when he saw the green dragon cavalry of Ma Chao and others and Gao Shun's trapped camp, Hu Chuquan was shocked.For a long time, Hu Chuquan thought that his Southern Xiongnu was the strongest cavalry in the world, but he didn't expect that these Han people would have such a powerful cavalry, a soldier and horse that was not inferior to his Southern Xiongnu.Especially when Hu Chuquan saw that Guo Jia ordered some soldiers to carry these strange things to the front of Yanmen Pass, and let people aim at Yanmen to close the city gate, he saw that the two strange things suddenly shot out two tongues of fire, and then only heard a loud "boom", and the gate of Yanmen Pass was actually shot through by these tongues of fire.Without the solid city gate as a support, the guards of this city gate are even more vulnerable, and everyone does not have to pay attention to climbing the city wall, directly attacking the city gate, and the city gate will be breached in a moment.Before, Hu Chuquan also wanted to ask Zhao Yu to ask for Yanmen Pass as the territory of the Southern Huns, but now after seeing this scene, Hu Chuquan was suddenly stupid, if the other party gave it to him, as long as he offended the other party, then Zhao Yu could directly let people take it back.The Southern Xiongnu are a nomadic people, and they still have the upper hand in the war on the grasslands and plains, but if they defend the city, it is to give up the long of B and take the short, at that moment, Hu Chuquan had a new idea in his heart.Instead of risking his life to lead the people of the Southern Xiongnu to loot and kill everywhere, it is better to defect to Zhao Yu like the Wuhuan clan, so that the entire clan can live a stable life.Although Hu Chuquan has never been to Youzhou, he still knows a lot about the Wuhuan clan settling in Youzhou and getting along with the Han people after they took refuge in Zhao Yu.Especially when it was learned that the children of the Wuhuan clan and the children of the Han people went to school together, their elders and women could be assigned their own fields, which could be heavy land, weaving cloth and breeding.At regular intervals, a sergeant would come to collect it, and would give him money and money, and would never do anything bad to the people.And if anyone in the Wuhuan family joins the army, then they can get free medical treatment when they are sick, and their family can also get half of the cost of medical treatment.Even if these sergeants unfortunately die in battle, they will receive very generous pensions, and the most important thing is that each Wuhuan family can get a house of their own for free, even the fields mentioned above are also free.When Hu Chuquan went back and told everyone about this matter and thoughts, although some people raised great objections, after Hu Chuquan threw out a sentence, everyone stopped talking: "We led the people of the Southern Xiongnu to a lifetime of turbulent displacement, burning, killing and looting, although there are gains, but there are also losses, offending many tribesmen, living a life of fear every day, even eating and drinking is not a meal."
Why do we burn and loot, isn't it just to let our people eat and drink enough, if the king of Zhao can solve the problem of our food, do we still need to loot If the king of Zhao can solve the problem of accommodation for our people, so that each of us has their own house, do we still need to be bumpy and displaced" Hu Chuquan's words not only spoke to the hearts of everyone, but also said the shortcomings of the Southern Xiongnu all along, in the face of these words, no one could refute it, and even some old ministers and veterans were speechless.Some of them have been to Dahan, and have seen Dahan, those people come and go in the market without worrying about wind and sand, not having to worry about not having enough food, clothing, and no place to live, they have their own houses, although some houses are not big, but they can shelter from the wind and rain.Their children can be enrolled in schools from an early age and learn together without being involved in the war.As the bottom line in everyone's hearts was dismantled, everyone finally reached an agreement and was willing to follow Hu Chuquan to surrender to King Zhao, just like the Wuhuan clan took refuge in Zhao Yu back then.When Hu Chuquan ordered a communicative minister under his command to tell Guo Jia the news, and then handed over the Southern Xiongnu occupied by the Southern Xiongnu to the jurisdiction of Zhao Jun for a long time.Guo Jia couldn't help but be stunned, and then only told the other party one sentence, that is, a condition.The B army can unconditionally accept the soldiers and subjects of the entire Southern Xiongnu, and can also provide food, clothing and shelter for all the Southern Xiongnu, just like the Wuhuan family, but the only condition is that the Southern Xiongnu must obey the orders of the B army.Although the command of the Southern Xiongnu in peacetime is still in Huchuquan, if someone causes trouble or makes a mistake, they must be dealt with by the Han law of the B army.Of course, Hu Chuquan had no objection to this, and agreed without hesitation.Immediately, Guo Jia asked Zhao Yu to inform Zhao Yu of the news, and Zhao Yu had just received the good news of the capture of Yanmen Pass sent by Guo Jia, and after hearing about it, he couldn't help but be surprised.I still don't know what method Guo Jia used to subdue Hu Chuquan and the entire Southern Xiongnu, and asked the sergeant who came to report the news many times, but the other party didn't know anything about him.Although he had cooperated with the Southern Xiongnu Huchuquan Alliance before, Zhao Yu had always been wary of the Southern Xiongnu, for fear that the other party would be stabbed at the critical moment of his war with Cao Cao.Now, Guo Jia has just led the army to take Yanmen Pass, and this Hu Chuquan has expressed that he wants to surrender to himself, and this surrender is completely different from the previous cooperation.Zhao Yu couldn't help but be overjoyed in his heart, if he could really influence the Southern Huns like the Wuhuan clan, then the combat effectiveness of his soldiers and horses would be raised to a higher level in the future.The soldiers of the Southern Xiongnu were born with more belligerent blood, and the war horses of the Southern Xiongnu are also stronger than the war horses of the Central Plains, and their physical strength is strong, which can be said to be comparable to the Wuhuan clan.In the end, Zhao Yu asked Guo Jia to give a word, and everything was up to Guo Jia to decide.Immediately, Zhao Yu sent people back to Jizhou quickly, informed Xun Yu and others of the good news of the merger, and asked Xun Yu to send suitable people to settle in the state and start to solve the problems of these Southern Xiongnu
