Chapter 2 Yan Zhao Fengyun Section 58
Li Hong suddenly remembered Zhao Wen.
If the troops did not attack Murong Ji in Luting, Zhao Wen would not have died. Whether the attack was fought or not, in fact, did not affect the development of the Yuyang war situation. Now it's the same way, his own troops have helped the Maiha tribe break away from the Xianbei country, and they have already fought one more battle, but fortunately, there are not too many losses. If you join the Quang Ninh battlefield, you will inevitably have a decisive battle with Tito's troops, either a siege battle or a cavalry duel on the plains, both of which are attritional battles, and the casualties of the troops will be very staggering. With such a small number of people that he had managed to put together, he couldn't just be so meaningless. More than half of the soldiers brought out of Luronse were dead.
"What's wrong with you? If you don't fight, or is it not easy to fight? Zheng Xin asked.
"I think of Zhao Wen." Li Hong pushed the map in his hand and whispered, "He can be immortal." It's all because of me, I had to run overnight, and as a result, he died in Luting. This time, if I make my own decisions and send troops to Fengping Circle, it is estimated that the losses will be even greater. ”
Li Hong sighed, and then said: "Ti Tu knows that after the leader was unexpectedly defeated by us, he has been unable to achieve an overwhelming advantage over the Han army on the battlefield of Guangning, and in this dilemma, he will not last long, and he will withdraw his troops and leave." Whether or not we participate in the Quang Ninh battlefield will not affect the overall situation. Moreover, there should be no war in Youzhou in the next few years, and there is no need for us to let the soldiers lose their precious lives at this time. ”
Zheng Xin didn't seem to know Li Hong, and looked at him for a long time.
"People, you are a famous leopard in the northern frontier, you fought all the way here with a sword in your hand, why did you suddenly lose your courage and become timid. What the hell is wrong with you? ”
Li Hong lowered his head and kept silent, thinking of Zhao Wen in his mind, and involuntarily felt a trace of fear in his heart.
"Zimin ......" Zheng Xinli pushed him and persuaded loudly: "Why don't you want to think about the knife, the big head, don't you want to think about Lord Tian Jing and Lord Wang Jin, how did they die?" It is an honor to sacrifice one's life for the country. When they died, when Zhao Wen died, did they ever complain, did they ever regret being a soldier? ”
Li Hong suddenly remembered the iron wolf, Gongsun Hu, and Ji Ming, and his heart became more and more sad. He no longer had the heart to listen to Zheng Xin, and walked out of the big tent alone.
Worried about the resurgence of the Xianbei people, he came early in the morning to say goodbye to Li Hong, and prepared to lead the tribe to continue south to live in Yefengwei temporarily. Li Hong was worried that they would be criticized by the Han people on the way, which would cause unnecessary misunderstandings, so he specially sent a tun chief with men and horses to accompany them south. The more than 1,500 people and thousands of horses captured became the trophies of the Maiha tribe, and they followed under the watchful eye of the cavalry warriors of the Maiha tribe.
The large army stayed on Sheephorn Mountain and continued to monitor the movements of the Xianbei people to prevent them from continuing to pursue after they regrouped their men and horses.
Li Hong silently watched the migratory army of the Maiha tribe slowly disappear from view, and he was very happy in his heart. Since then, tens of thousands of people can live and work in peace and contentment in the Han Kingdom, which makes people feel very happy when they think about it. He turned and mounted his horse to return to the camp, but saw that none of his men had moved.
"I heard that the adults are going to take us to Tito, when will we act?" Jade asked solemnly.
"The soldiers are fast, and this matter must not be delayed." Wu Zhao immediately picked up and said.
Li Hong was stunned for a moment, knowing that Zheng Xin must not give up, and united all the soldiers to come to ask for battle.
He glared at Zheng Xin fiercely, and said with a smile: "The timing of this matter has been missed, and it is no longer appropriate to send troops." ”
"Why?" Risong said: "The leader we attacked only yesterday, will we get the news today?" Dishui Wai is nearly 300 miles away from Quang Ninh, and it stands to reason that the news should not have reached Quang Ninh. We could have rushed to Quang Ninh with the pretending to be the leader's troops. ”
Li Hong looked at everyone, smiled bitterly, and said again: "The time has been missed. Without absolute certainty, troops cannot be dispatched. ”
"My lord, do you remember what you said to us at the mountain pass ferry camp?" Beard was uncharacteristically and shouted: "You said that because we are Han people, we will never allow any enemy to trample on every inch of our Han country. Have you forgotten? The brothers we brought out from Dayan Mountain, the brothers we brought out from Yuyang, how many are left now? Will their revenge not be avenged? ”
"Even if we all die in battle, we will die for the sake of the Han Kingdom, and we will die without regrets." Wu Zhao said slowly.
Li Hong was very moved in his heart, he turned over and dismounted, and shouted loudly: "Come." Tell me, how to fight? ”
Seeing that Li Hong agreed to their invitation to fight, everyone cheered and dismounted and gathered around Li Hong.
"We totaled it together last night, and we thought that the possibility of annihilation and Ti Tu in this battle was still very high." On behalf of everyone, Jade told Li Hong about their plan, "The intention of Tifu is very obvious, he is ready to carry out a front and rear attack on the Han army with the two leaders in Fengpingwei. ”
"We took a clever and bold scout from Lord Zheng's scout, and the messenger of the head of the head came out, and we went to Quang Ninh to tell Ti that the head had agreed and agreed with him to attack the time. On the day of the attack, his troops met the enemy head-on at the troops of Fengping Wai and Kei Chou-sama, and our troops pretended to be Xianbei people from their flanks, and then suddenly killed the Karasuma people while the enemy was completely defenseless. This is a surprise and will have a miraculous effect. ”
"At the same time, we quickly informed the captain of the Gokarsuma school, Mitsuma, that Tuoba Feng had withdrawn his troops, and that on the way back to Zhuolu, we caught Tito's messenger and learned of Tito's plan and the chief. Now the Kuitou's forces have been defeated by the Maiha tribe and us in Sheephorn Mountain. Of course, I said this so that he would not know about our cross-border fighting. His official can order our arrest at any time because of this matter. Then we told him about the plan. In order to defeat Tito and recover Quang Ninh, I think he will definitely agree to this plan. Once he succeeds, he will not only be able to wash away the shame of being defeated by the enemy and driven to Juyong, but he will also be rewarded for his meritorious service. ”
"Finished?" Li Hong asked.
Jade nodded and said respectfully: "When adults fight, they always win with strange soldiers, and the soldiers are like antelopes hanging horns, and there is no trace to be found. We are all very impressed and feel beyond our reach. Therefore, please advise you on the shortcomings of this plan. ”
Li Hong laughed, pointed to the jade and said, "You will also be flattering." I'm not as good as you say, but I'm just a little more thoughtful than you are. There are several uncertain factors in your plan. If these problems are not solved, the plan will be flawed, that is, it will not be implemented. ”
"First of all, how can we be sure that there is no close connection between the head and the? If Titu had known that the leader had been defeated in Dishui Wai, our pretended plan would have been seen through and exploited by the enemy, and if they had done so, we would have been defeated. ”
"Secondly, none of us know Captain Gokarasuma, Master Mitsuru, so why should he believe the news we sent? Even if he believes in who we are, why should he believe in our plans? This is a matter of the survival of his 5,000-strong army, how can he not think carefully and think twice? If it is the enemy's treacherous scheme, his troops are in danger of being wiped out? ”
"We are the border army of Lu Longsai in Youbeiping County, and here I have the largest rank, that is, a military commander with a rank of 1,000 stones, and a captain with a rank of 2,000 stones, which is pitifully small. He was surrounded by several officers of my rank. According to the military law of the Han Dynasty, the military Sima did not have the right to lead the troops on the expedition alone, let alone command more than one song. Now I can lead the troops to command the war, purely because the war is critical, and it is an expedient measure temporarily given by Lord Liu to assassinate Shi Liu, which is illegal to say. In this case, if my small army Sima advises a captain on how to fight, wouldn't this be a humiliation for oneself. If he doesn't send someone to take me, he will give Lord Liu a lot of face. ”
"The last issue is the issue of troops. The captain's troops are mainly infantry. According to our information, he took three thousand infantry, two thousand cavalry from Juyong, Fuyang. With this combination of military formations, there was no chance of victory at all in a battle against the 8,000 cavalry of Titu on the plain. If there is a mistake in coordination and we can't get there in time, his troops risk being hit hard by the Karasuma people. Even if we arrive on time and attack the 8,000-strong troops with more than 3,000 cavalry, we will end up in a bitter battle. On the plains battlefield, even if you sneak up on the enemy, it will turn into a bloody battle. Being able to defeat the leader this time was not only lucky, but more importantly, thanks to the timely attack of the Maiha tribe, which caused an internal and external attack on the enemy. This kind of good thing is just like this once in a lifetime, and there will be no second time. Our troops are exhausted, and everyone is happy, right? ”
A group of subordinates were silent, and everyone was thinking about Li Hong's words.
"Personally, I think the best way to annihilate as many enemies as possible at the least cost. If we defeat the enemy and lose most of our own, how will we fight the next battle? Don't fight? ”
"I have also considered this plan, but there are too many flaws to execute."
"My lord, what do you have in mind?" Yan Wuxing asked.
"I didn't. Now we can't find the enemy's soft underbelly, and we can't know where to start. Everyone must fight, and you must wait patiently for a while to find the right time. ”
"Keeper, your scout tun immediately went deep into the Quang Ninh area to reconnoitre. Jade, you go to Fengpingwei, get in touch with the school captain, and get his confirmation and trust. Leizi, you go to Macheng, call the old man and the little lazy as soon as possible, and rush to Yefengwei to meet us. ”
"Three days later, we'll go to Yefengwei."
Tito soon gets the news that the leader has been wiped out in Dishui Wai.
His subordinates immediately ran to his tent as if they had exploded, demanding to withdraw to Baishan. Now the situation is very clear, the Xianbei people have been defeated on all fronts, and the leopard troops of the Han army have even penetrated deep into the Xianbei border and began to counterattack. How long can the Karasuma people stay alone on the border of the Han Dynasty and guard the two small cities of Guangning and Ning County, which have little effect? While the Han army was still respite and the leopard's troops were still resting in Yefengwei, it was wise to withdraw as soon as possible.
Tito turned a pair of sinister little eyes, and watched his subordinates shouting in front of him, looking very disapproving.
"Afraid of what? You are only afraid of being besieged by the two sides of the Kei and the leopard. How many people are there in the Leopard's troops now? ”
Yu Jie, who was sitting at the bottom of the seat, hurriedly replied: "It is said that his troops have suffered heavy losses in Macheng, and it is estimated that there are more than a thousand people, and this is all he has. ”
His words were immediately met with an invective.
He raised his hands and motioned for everyone to listen to him.
"Lu Pofeng's troops are estimated to be around a thousand. It stands to reason that the 2,000-strong army of more than 2,000 people was naturally not enough to attack the 6,000-strong army at the head of the leader. But if he can win, what must be the trick to that? ”
"I think that in that kind of life-and-death situation, the Maiha tribe can at least organize an army of nearly five thousand people with all they have. They took advantage of the fact that the leader was underestimating the enemy, and they should cooperate with the Han people, and it was reasonable that they could defeat the leader. ”
"Defeating six thousand people is not an easy task either. It is estimated that the losses of both the Leopard and the Ink Ci troops are large. With the Leopard's current strength, it was impossible for him to rush to the Quang Ninh battlefield to join the battle, unless he received reinforcements immediately. So in the short term, it is impossible for us to be attacked by Kei thick and leopards at the same time. There is no need to worry too much. ”
Titu smiled coldly and said, "Everyone understands what you say?" My goal has not been achieved yet, so be patient and wait. Back to Baishan, everyone's benefits are indispensable. ”
The envoys of the ink shoot rushed to Fuyang and Jicheng, and visited the Taishou of Shanggu County and the Thorn History of Youzhou respectively. They were given the Hanting documents to temporarily reside in Ueya County. As for the official documents from Luoyang Kyoto, it will take a long time to wait.
Now the entire Youzhou already knows that there has been a rebellion in the Xianbei Kingdom and it has been satisfactorily resolved. Liu Yu and Liu Fan, the two adults, saw that the four divisions of the Xianbei Kingdom were established, and the rights of the Xianbei King were greatly weakened, and their hearts were overjoyed, and their mouths were crooked.
The Xianbei country fell into a situation of fragmentation. Now the four Xianbei tribes are busy dividing power, rebuilding their own forces, and fighting with each other. In this case, not to mention that it has become a dream to jointly send troops to invade the Han, that is, they themselves have to be careful of each other. And the initiator of all this is Murong Feng, who is bent on rebuilding the powerful Xianbei Kingdom. The huge gap between the ideal and the reality makes this ambitious Xianbei strong man feel that he is no longer able to do it, and it is difficult to turn the tide.
Soon, the news of Murong Feng and the Han people secretly colluding, plotting to overthrow Helian, and splitting Xianbei slowly spread in northern Xinjiang. And the sudden betrayal and settlement of the Maiha tribe seems to have made an unquestionable interpretation of this rumor. Youzhou's reports and the secret letters of officials from all over the country flew to Luoyang like snowflakes.
The focus of the contradiction slowly focused on Liu Yu, the assassin of Youzhou.
