Chapter 81 Expedition to Dongqiang, Li Muxing, Xiongbing
"Expanding the territory is of course chic and majestic! However, keeping the aftermath is even more important! ”
"As a general, if you only know how to charge into battle, you don't know how to take care of the overall plan and protect the fundamentals. This is the courage of the horseman! ”
"In order to make a decision, then act, consolidate the open source, in order to be sustainable! May you wait for the ring of thought! ”
When Li Mu saw Zhang Liao and the others, his face showed envy, and he said in a deep voice.
"Subordinates obey the teachings of the Lord!"
Zhao Yun, Zhang Liao, Huang Zhong and others replied in unison.
"Zhang Liao Town guards Yunwu City, Deng Zhi, Li Hui, and Zhang Ji have full authority to handle the government affairs and civil affairs of Jincheng County, and they can recruit another 8,000 soldiers."
"Dian Wei led 3,000 troops and guarded the front line in Yuzhong."
"Chen Zhi led 3,000 troops, and the town guard order was on the front line."
"Xu Huang led 4,000 troops and guarded the front line of Jincheng. I hope you will work together to protect the foundation of Jincheng County! ”
"Bo Miao, you take the seal letter of the captain of Qiang and go to Anding County and Beidi County to inform the two counties of Taishou and Jincheng County's dispatch of troops. It would be great if the two counties were willing to provide grain and grass! ”
"The subordinates must do their best to live up to the trust of the lord!"
Zhang Liao, Deng Zhi, Dian Wei, Xu Huang, Chen Zhi and others touched the ground on one knee and said loudly.
"Everyone, go and prepare!"
Li Mu nodded and said.
Everyone got up and said goodbye!
……
When Li Mu returned to Taishou Mansion, he was just in time for lunch. Li Mu accompanied Diao Chan and Zhen Mi to eat.
"Cicada, Mi'er, in another month, I will lead the army to the battle, you have to take care of yourself! If there is an accident, protect yourself first, and then protect your children, you know? ”
Li Mu looked at the two, hesitated, and said in a deep voice.
Diao Chan and Zhen Mi listened, their hearts tightened, their faces turned white, and tears slipped out of their eyes.
"Ah Mu, did the imperial court ask you to send troops......" Diao Chan choked up.
"Although the imperial court has not issued an edict, as a captain of the Qiang Protector, I am obliged to send troops. Don't worry, I'll be back safe before the Chinese New Year! ”
Li Mu held Diao Chan and Zhen Mi in his arms, and said with a gentle expression.
"Ah Mu, you must return safely, for the sake of Mi'er, Sister Cicada, and the two little babies, you have to come back......"
Zhen Mi also choked up.
"Good! I can't bear you either! I promise you will return safely as scheduled! ”
Li Mu gently wiped away the tears of Diao Chan and Zhen Mi, and said in a firm tone.
Diao Chan and Zhen Mi knew that Li Mu had far-sighted ambitions, and although he was reluctant to give up, he could only endure it.
The two of them were just a force, telling Li Mu to pay attention to his own safety and come back safely!
……
In the blink of an eye, the time came to November 13, 183!
At the end of the day, when Li Mu woke up, Diao Chan and Zhen Mi had already woken up.
I saw that the two of them had swollen eyes, red eyes, and looked at Li Mu with teary eyes.
"Two great beauties, wake up so early, come and serve your husband to wash."
Li Muqiang endured the reluctance in his heart and said with a smile.
Diao Chan and Zhen Mi knew that her husband was reassuring them and diverting their attention. Because, Li Mu has never been reluctant to let them serve!
On the pretty faces of the two, they barely squeezed out a smile, waiting for Li Mu to change clothes and wash.
Li Mu accompanied the two of them to breakfast, and then they were ready to go to the school field.
Diao Chan and Zhen Mi took Li Mu's hand and sobbed and sent Li Mu to the gate of Taishou Mansion.
"Cicada, Mi'er, come in, it's cold outside, don't freeze your body, you have to take care of yourself! Don't worry about your husband, your husband will return safely! ”
Li Mu let out a long breath and said in a choked voice.
"Amu...... We...... And our children will be waiting for you...... Returning safely ......"
Diao Chan and Zhen Mi gently leaned on Li Mu's arms, clutched Li Mu's cloak tightly, and sobbed.
"Cicada, Mi'er, don't worry, I'll be back soon!"
Li Mu's throat was tight, his eyes were slightly wet, his eyes were red, and he said in a choked voice.
Li Mu kissed Diao Chan and Zhen Mi on their foreheads, gently pulled away the hands of the two, took a step back, took a look, turned around and stepped on the red dragon, and whipped away!
Diao Chan and Zhen Mi looked at Li Mu, and disappeared at the corner of the street in a moment.
The two leaned together and cried. Dongmei and Qiu Ju hurriedly stepped forward and supported Diao Chan and Zhen Mi.
……
Jincheng County School Camp!
"Soldiers, Qiang people and dog thieves, robbed my Han borders, despised my Han Tianwei, killed my Han people, and insulted my brothers and sisters. This revenge is not shared, do not avenge this revenge, swear not to be a man! ”
Li Mu glanced around the stage and shouted in a deep voice.
The Han army roared in unison: "Revenge and hatred ......"
"Soldiers! This time, the army is defeating Qiang, and it is the time for us to make meritorious contributions and glorify our ancestors. If you don't break Dongqiang, you vow not to return to the city! ”
Li Mu shouted in a deep voice.
The Han army roared in unison: "Don't break Dongqiang!" Vow not to return to the city! ”
"Soldiers! Launched! Let's go! ”
In the low and deep sound of the horn, 10,000 iron horsemen slowly drove out of the Jincheng County school field.
The people of Yunwu City, with all kinds of food, saw them off!
The army left Yunwu City, and Zhao Yun, Jiang Wei, and Luo Xian led three thousand iron cavalry to take the lead.
However, it was said that Zhao Yun, Jiang Wei, and Luo Xian led three thousand iron horsemen all the way through Dalu, Shicheng, and Anding, and came to the mountain castle in the north of Beidi County on the third day.
Zhao Yun ordered the army to set up camp, and the Han army was about to bury the pot to make rice. I saw that several Qiang tribes that had gone south to plunder the Han border came to provoke.
Zhao Yun ordered the Han army to assemble in formation!
"Soldiers, Qiang people and dog thieves, arrogant and incomparable, we will immediately go out of the camp to cover up and kill, and frustrate their sharpness!"
Zhao Yun was a white dragon in his crotch, and shouted loudly.
It was inconvenient for the Han army to shout, so they had to raise their weapons in response to this!
Zhao Yunliu Luo Xian led a thousand Han troops and held the camp.
Zhao Yun and Jiang Wei led two thousand elite horses, like hungry tigers, rushing out of the camp to kill!
Besides, when the Qiang people saw that the Han army had not eaten, they thought that the Han army must be sleepy and tired, so they cowered in the camp and did not dare to come out.
Some Qiang soldiers simply dismounted, sat on the ground, and insulted the Han army, these Qiang people had long lost their formation and were in chaos.
Suddenly, two or three Qiang soldiers screamed and shouted: The Han army is coming, run......
Originally, an army is most afraid of disturbing the morale of the army, once one person is in chaos, then more people will be in chaos!
Unless, the commander of the army can stop it in time. The Qiang people who know this, no matter how many generals there are, are in a hurry to get on their horses and flee for their lives.
Zhao Yun took the lead and roared loudly: "Kill the Qiang people and dog thieves!" ”
Jiang Wei was not to be left behind, whipped the war horse, and shouted to kill all the Qiang thieves!
Seeing that the main general was so desperate, the Han army was already boiling with blood and roared to kill the Qiang people.
Zhao Yun and Jiang Wei entered the Qiang formation, just like a tiger entering a flock, like entering a no-man's land, and there was no one under them!
The Han army cut down every time. In an instant, this encounter provoked by the Qiang people turned into a massacre of the Han army chopping melons and vegetables.
Zhao Yun urged the army to move forward, chased and killed all the way for more than 30 miles, before he reined in his horse and ordered the Han army to stop!
After Zhao Yunqin led a thousand fine cavalry, the remaining Han army collected the horses, grain, and ordnance of the Qiang people along the road.
