Chapter Ninety-Four: The Battle of Bluestone Bridge [End]

Lu Yi lost the battle in the end, but Yanbei won the war. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info the imperial court Zhonglang made Meng Yi the biggest loser in this battle.

More than 10,000 soldiers and horses were shot and killed by Lu Yi on the bluestone bridge, and more than 1,000 were lost under the defense of the land of Liaodong, and they were able to defeat the troops of Lu Yi, but they were shot by the strong crossbow of the Xiaoya army in the forest, and the Xiaoya sergeant wearing big armor simply broke up a school captain who was pursuing head-on, and then fled to the bluestone bridge, but the defenders of the bluestone bridge were defeated by the cavalry led by the jaw of the needle, and Zhang Leigong and Jiang Jin on the north mountain came out to hold the retreat.

Four local battles, four were defeated, and in the end, Meng Yi had to gather the rest of the defeated soldiers and flee south, and was pursued by Zhang Jaw on the road, cutting hundreds of ranks.

Although he was defeated four times, Meng Yi still led more than 3,000 routs to flee to the south of the Qingshi Bridge, and Yan Bei stopped Zhang Jaw, who continued to pursue, and began to order the soldiers to clean up the battlefield. He only ordered Zhang Leigong to lead his headquarters to the south and pursue in the direction of Meng Yi's escape, without ordering Meng Yi to be killed, but hoping to squeeze Meng Yi into the defensive range of Wang Dang, the captain of the school in southeastern Liao, and join forces to strangle him.

He didn't dare to let go of his headquarters and chase after a Meng Yi who had lost his armor...... In Yanbei's heart, although Meng Yi's name is big, the real enemy has always been Gongsun Zhan, who recruited troops in western Liaoning after the first battle of Guanzi City.

He had to leave enough soldiers and horses to guard against the Bluestone Bridge.

What's more, Meng Yi, who led 3,000 soldiers and horses, did not have a lot of money and food, so what could this gang of rebels do in Liaodong?

Can't turn over the palm of your hand!

All the generals were happy, only Lu Yi had a blue face, and everyone looked unkind.

Wang Yi and Jiang Jin led their troops to clean up the battlefield, and the men and horses of each department re-encamped, sorted out the location of the Chinese army's village, and together with the people who escorted grain and grass in Xiangping, they began to rely on the dense forest to cut down the village. This ambush was easy to fight, and Meng Yi suffered a dumb loss with mental calculations or unintentionally, but with this precedent, Gongsun Chan will definitely not be so light on the enemy next time, and I am afraid that he will have to fight with a dignified array at that time.

Yanbei must have a strong enough camp, there is a bluestone bridge in front of it to be defended, there is Xiangping in the back, and in the middle is his camp for 6,000 soldiers and horses!

The battlefield was cleaned up in the afternoon, and the armor and equipment were collected, and the rest was the arduous work. The battle of the bluestone bridge was only fought for four hours, but more than 5,000 casualties were killed and wounded on both sides, plus the remnants of the wounded and captured soldiers who were lucky not to die, and the scattered affairs had to be sorted out.

Digging a pit and burying people is a big job.

The battlefield was cleaned up until evening, and the work in the hands of the generals was idle. Yan Dong and Sun Qing, who came from Xiangping to report the good news, discussed together under the Chinese military tent five miles east of Qingshi Bridge.

It is said that it is a discussion, but in fact it is also a celebration, except for the absence of alcohol, all specifications are arranged according to the banquet of the celebration.

During the banquet, Jiang Jin was arguing to drink, and after being scolded by Yan Bei with a few laughs, he stopped talking, Yan Bei sat on the top, supported his arms on his knees, and supported his chin on his arms and asked the generals: "At present, the great enemy Meng Yi doesn't have to worry too much, do you have a good plan for how to resist Gongsun Zhan?" ”

Today's Lu Yi, who has made the greatest contribution on the battlefield, calmly did not speak, the generals, you look at me, I look at you, no one knows what to say, so Yan Bei raised his eyebrows at Lu Yi and asked, "What does Brother Koji think of today's battle?" ”

In fact, it is ridiculous, originally none of the generals could not get used to Lu Yi's arrogant appearance, and no one except Yanbei was close to him on weekdays, but today after Lu Yi proved himself with the results, the generals were even more reluctant to be with him.

Until now, no one under Yanbei's tent has comforted Tie Qing's face.

"Alas!" Lu Yi turned his head darkly and sighed, turned around and arched his hand and said: "Koji is defeated, why should the general humiliate Koji with this?" ”

Yan Bei glared when he heard Lu Yi's words, "Who the hell humiliated you?" ”

"Koji blocked more than 10,000 enemy troops at the bluestone bridge, and since the general rushed to the top of Nanshan, he can naturally see it clearly!" Koji Yi stiffened his neck and said, pointing to the generals who were laughing and drinking in the tent and said: "Gao Ran crouched in the forest, saw that my department was suffering and did not save it, there were ambushes behind the north and south mountains but did not come out, only to wait for our troops to be killed and wounded, this is belatedly but each received a great feat, the general asked Koji at this time how he felt about this battle, not to humiliate Koji Mou and what is it?" ”

As soon as Lu Yi's words came out, the smiles on the faces of all the generals froze, who could hear these words when they were so happy? The silence of the big eyes passed, and the small ones already hated Lu Yi.

"Oh?" Yan Bei smiled, Lu Yi was a little stingy. He ignored Lu Yi, who was holding his neck, and turned to Wang Yi, who was in charge of cleaning the battlefield in the afternoon, and asked, "What is the harvest from cleaning the battlefield today?" ”

Wang Yiben didn't want to make a sound, but at this time, he was named by Yanbei and had to bite the bullet and said: "More than 1,000 sets of armor can be used, and the damaged weapon armor has been transported to Xiangping City, and the craftsmen can be raised to melt it into molten iron, and it is estimated that more than 1,000 armor can be recreated...... By the way, there are more than 100 ownerless war horses on the battlefield, and they have all been brought back to Xiangping. ”

Yan Bei nodded lightly with a smile, got up and spread his hands to everyone and said, "Brothers help Yan to fight, and if you are guilty, you will be punished, but how can you not be rewarded for your merits?" Today's Lu Yi won a big victory in the bluestone bridge, and Yan remembered it in his heart! ”

Laughing, Yan Bei said to Lu Yi, who was holding his neck with an unhappy look: "If you think that today's last subordinates have broken up and lost face, Yan will transfer you five hundred pairs of leather armor and weapons enough to arm a thousand people, and you can recruit troops yourself and bring back your majesty...... If you want anything else, if Yan can do it, you will speak, and Yan will reward you! ”

Lu Yi paused for a moment, bowed his head for a moment before he didn't make a sound but arched his hand to Yan Bei with a serious expression, "General, Koji is just angry in his heart......"

Before he finished speaking, he was stopped by Yan Bei's raised palm, and Yan Bei said: "It's just that you have to control your mouth in the future, your tactics are so exquisite, don't you understand that if you don't have these generals, you will die on the battlefield today?" And the position of the vanguard is what you ask me to give you, originally Yan's favorite vanguard is Gaolan, change places, you will be the same, let the enemy chase closer, so as to complete the encirclement. All the generals in today's battle have merit, if there is no merit, there is only Yanbei alone, but Lu Yi ...... Do you have a grudge against Yan? ”

Yan Bei had a signature smile on his face, a few inches closer to Lu Yi, and then he got up and opened his hand and smiled: "Hahaha, you can be angry with anyone, and you will not be angry with Yan!" Come, the generals and pour the bottle of warm soup, water instead of wine, today Yan for the monarchs to celebrate, to defeat Gongsun Zhan, we will be in Xiangping feast for three days, not drunk and not return! ”

Hearing Yan Bei say this, all the generals smiled openly and left Fang Cai's unhappiness behind, and drank all the water in the wine bottle or clay bowl in front of them, and even Lu Yi carefully glanced at Yan Bei and drank it all.

To be honest, when Yan Bei asked the last sentence just now, even Lu Yi's temperament felt a little chill down his spine...... How can this person smile like that, obviously grinning but making people feel chills in the bottom of their hearts!

After a feast, it can be regarded as a pleasure for the guests and hosts, and Lu Yi was finally rewarded by Yanbei with 500 pairs of leather armor and weapons armed with 1,000 people, Gao Ran and Zhang Jaw each got more than 200 pairs, and each received the next order to recruit troops in various counties in Liaodong and began to prepare for war.

After today's situation, Yanbei understands that this righteousness is the kind of women and villains that Confucius said in the Analects, which are not inferior to those who are far away.

In the end, everyone dispersed, and even the resourceful Fu Zhu took the next task of planning the tactics and left, but Yanbei left Yan Dong, Jiang Jin, and Wang Yi.

"Brother, is this something?"

Yan Bei smiled and sent away the frustration outside the tent door, turned his head to look at the three closest people in the army, the smile on his face gradually dissipated, beckoned the three of them to sit closer, spread out the map of Youzhou hanging in the tent, and said to the three of them: "It's okay to let the three of you stay, look here." ”

As he spoke, Yan Bei pointed his finger in the direction north of Liaodong, and his palm covered the position marked with Le Lang.

"A Liaodong County is too small, and Lelang County is too close, I plan to do something to Lelang County...... It's up to the three of you to do this. Yan Bei whispered, this is a conspiracy, and it needs to be hidden from Fu Zhi and the others for the time being, "Lelang Taishou should be called Zhang Qi, you should do this from three directions." ”

"General, you say, let's listen." Jiang Jin and Yandong glanced at each other, and when they saw the joy in each other's eyes, they immediately arched their hands and said, "Will you kill Zhang Qi or what?" ”

Yan Dong said: "Lelang Taishou Zhang Qi is a respected old man, a scholar from the Qingping Kingdom of Jizhou, and he is of noble birth, if he is not killed for any reason, I am afraid that it will hurt my brother's reputation in the future." ”

Yan Bei raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Pull it down, Yan has participated in the Yellow Turban Dao and Youji rebellion successively, where is there any prestige to talk about." It's just that this Lelang County must not be able to fight, and now it must go all out to guard against the western direction of Liaoning, and Lelang can't start a war again. Yan San, you will enter Lelang as a Youzhou scholar who is hiding from the war, and try to find out Zhang Qi's attitude towards our rebellion, if you have no objection to my annexation to Youzhou after the war, just spare his life and let him leave this position. In the meantime, I will give you enough money and two hundred sergeants to pretend to be your relatives and dependents, and establish yourself in Lelang. ”

As Yan Dong nodded, Yan Bei turned to Jiang Jin and asked, "How many people do you have in your hands now?" ”

"In the past few days, I have divided a lot of soldiers, half of the captain's department."

Yanbei nodded, pondered for a while, and then pointed to Xi'an Ping County, which is connected to the edge of Liaodong County and Lelang County, and said: "You lead your troops to garrison here, take some money, food and armor, and recruit people and horses along the way to supplement the captain's department, first, to prevent Lelang Taishou from attacking, and second, to explore the situation of Lelang County at any time." ”

"As for you, Ayi, give you 400 people to carry money, food and treasures, pretend to be the refuge of Youzhou Haoqiang into Goguryeo, buy the nobles, try to gain their domestic authority, and prepare to incite their war against Lelang County!"
