Chapter 796: The Arrival of the Flying Horse (Ask for Subscription)
After cleaning the battlefield and probing the surrounding news, Chen Zhi and Pang De did not choose to stop, they wanted to make the Xianbei people pay a heavier price.
Micah led the soldiers to break through the siege and left, counting the soldiers, there was originally an army of 10,000 people, at this time there were only more than 5,000 people left, the rest of the soldiers did not have to think about it to know their fate, through the news transmitted by the scouts, so that Micah fell into a long silence, it has always been the Xianbei people who wreak havoc in the Han realm, robbing the Han people of rice and grain, and driving the Han people as slaves, and now the tragic situation of the Xianbei in the east is more tragic than the Han realm, and the people who escaped from the tribe are no more than 15,000 people.
This is the largest tribe in the eastern Xianbei, the people in the tribe reached more than 30,000 people, not including the 10,000 army, one day and one night, the Han army killed more than 20,000 Xianbei people.
Different from the Han Dynasty, the grassland is vast and sparsely populated, and the population is extremely important to the Xianbei people, which is also the reason why the Xianbei people will bring back some captives when they invade the Han realm, not only for them to drive, but also to help the Xianbei people pass on their ancestry, and the loss of so many people at one time is also a heavy blow to the Xianbei people.
"So many people died." Micah muttered.
"My lord, do you want to send cavalry to inform Lord Su Li and Lord Que Ji that the east has suffered such a drastic change, if the two adults can't return in time, the rest of the Xianbei tribes in the east will be really in danger." A captain stepped forward.
"Quickly send someone to inform Su Li and Que Ji, and let the two return to the tribe as soon as possible." Micah almost roared and ordered, all along, Su Li, Que Ji, and Mica have been fighting in the eastern Xianbei for the power in their hands, but the appearance of this Han army made Micah have to let go of the grievances between the three, from the Han army, he felt the destruction, if this Han army could not be defeated, the eastern Xianbei may really decline.
The same as Chen Zhi and Pang De, when Ji Ling led the army to the central Xianbei, he was met with more stubborn resistance, among the three Xianbei tribes, the strength of the central Xianbei was the strongest, even when Lu Bu raided Xianbei the year before last, the central Xianbei suffered heavy losses, among the Xianbei people, the central Xianbei still has a high status.
The Xianbei people learned the lesson of the last LΓΌ Bu raid on Xianbei, and each tribe left a different number of cavalry, which may be much worse than the cavalry in the Xianbei army, but they can still do it in resisting the enemy's sneak attack, and most of the cavalry led by Ji Ling are Hun cavalry.
Even if the Hun cavalry regarded themselves as warriors, their perennial life in the territory of the Han Dynasty had worn away their sharpness, and compared with the Xianbei people, they lacked a bloody nature.
Even under the sneak attack, Ji Ling did not get much benefit, and the central Xianbei, who had suffered a loss, was more cautious than the eastern Xianbei.
At this moment, Ji Ling met the general from Bingzhou, Zhao Yun, which was also the most important turning point in defeating Xianbei in the middle of the country.
After Zhao Yun got Jia Xu's order, he immediately rushed to Jinyang, and then led three thousand flying horses to the grassland, for the grassland, flying horses are no strangers, the reason why they are famous all over the world is because the Xianbei people on the grassland, now back to the grassland, can only be said to be a revisit, for the Xianbei tribe on the grassland, the flying horses do not have any good feelings.
Along the way, Zhao Yun did not entangle too much with the Xianbei tribes, and with the speed of the flying cavalry and superb equestrian skills, it was difficult for the pursuers sent by the Xianbei tribes to capture the traces of the flying cavalry.
Zhao Yun understands that now Youzhou has reached the most critical moment, unlike the state with a standing army, the 30,000 troops in Youzhou are temporarily transferred from the counties and counties, maybe not weak in combat effectiveness, but the cooperation between the soldiers and soldiers is much worse than the state army, a large army wants to achieve greater achievements on the battlefield, the lack of cooperation between soldiers and soldiers, it is difficult to do, and the Youzhou army is out of a critical period.
This is not so much a battle, but rather a tempering of the Youzhou army, once the Youzhou army can come out of this war, it is bound to become more elite, but the transformation of an ordinary soldier to the elite needs to pay the price of blood.
After the starry night rushed to Xianbei in the central part of the country, the scouts sent by Zhao Yun learned about the situation of their own army and hurriedly got in touch with Ji Ling, who was also eager to think of the situation on the battlefield in Youzhou in the future.
Seeing Zhao Yun, Ji Ling was surprised and delighted, originally thought that it would be difficult to complete the task given by Lu Bu, who knew that Zhao Yun led the flying horse to come, and he was very clear about the combat effectiveness of the flying horse, and the Xianbei people on the grassland were defeated by the flying horse. With Zhao Yun's three thousand flying horses, it can be said that he is invincible in the face of Xianbei people.
"I've seen General Zhao." Ji Ling hugged his fist, this gift was not only because of Zhao Yun's identity, but also because of his admiration for Zhao Yun's character and martial arts.
Zhao Yun hurriedly returned the salute and said: "General Ji is polite, this time General Ben went to Xianbei on the order of the military division, and I hope that General Ji will give me more advice." β
"General Zhao, the situation in Youzhou is not very good now, and it will be a long story short, Kebineng and others raised 50,000 troops to go to Youzhou, and the lord ordered General Chen Zhi to lead an army of 8,000 to attack Xianbei in the east, and ordered to lead an army of 8,000 to attack Xianbei in the middle, in order to make the Xianbei people unable to take care of each other, at this time the lord only has more than 10,000 soldiers and horses in his hands, although the Lieyang bow cavalry is very elite, but the Xianbei cavalry is also a full 5,000 people."
Zhao Yun nodded knowingly, Lu Bu is very important to Merge and Youzhou, once Lu Bu makes a mistake, it will be the biggest turmoil for Merge and Youzhou.
"General Ji, there are 3,000 flying horsemen under the command of this general, if you and I join forces, we will break the royal court again and see if the Xianbei people withdraw their troops." Zhao Yundao.
"I am willing to obey General Zhao's orders." Ji Ling said excitedly, the first time he rode to break through the Danhan Mountain Royal Court, Ji Ling didn't catch up, and now he is going to personally attack the holy land in the hearts of Xianbei people, even if the prestige of the Danhan Mountain Royal Court in Xianbei at this time is getting lower and lower, it still represents Xianbei.
When the rest of the generals heard Zhao Yun's words, their blood was also boiling, and their eyes at Zhao Yun became more and more hot, some of them didn't know Zhao Yun, seeing Ji Ling's respect, they were about to ask after going back.
"In the past, the general had followed the Marquis of Jin to level Xianbei, so that the Xianbei people were frightened, and Budugen was compensated for a large number of cattle, sheep and horses, at this time, and the state can be said to be in internal and external difficulties, and now the state and Youzhou, compared to the former and Youzhou, I don't know how much stronger, stepping on the Xianbei royal court is naturally not a problem, presumably you also understand that what the Marquis of Jin needs is not only to defeat the Xianbei people, but to drive the Xianbei people away, just like the period of Emperor Wu, so that the Xianbei people disappear from the grassland." Zhao Yun said slowly.
