【Chapter 974】 Kill the wolf, kill two birds with one stone
Clang!
Kebi Neng, who was in the lead, swung his sword on his prancing horse, waved away the oncoming short-handled scimitar, and slashed a Wuhuan cavalryman off his horse with a backhand. Immediately beat the horse and slaughtered into the front army of the barbarian army, the sword rolled, the left and right folded and rushed, brave and fierce, unstoppable. Under his leadership, 20,000 Xianbei iron horsemen roared and killed the generals, and they took a slight advantage in the first battle, taking the lead before the Wuhuan pioneers, and killing the barbarians by surprise.
Unexpectedly, the Eastern Expeditionary Army and the Barbarian Army met head-on at the northern foot of White Wolf Mountain.
When you meet on a narrow road, the first strike is the strongest. When the Wuhuan barbarian army saw the Xianbei iron cavalry at first glance, they hesitated slightly, not knowing whether the Xianbei army led by Kebineng was friend or foe, but Kebineng was not relentless, did not hesitate for a moment, and killed the killer as soon as he came up. By the time the Wuhuan cavalry reacted, the Xianbei Iron Cavalry had already entered the formation, and a rare encounter unfolded in an instant.
In fact, the front army led by Kebineng was not the first team to make a move, before him, the scouts under his account and the hundreds of scouts sent by Zhao Yun had already collided with the Wuhuan scouts and fought fiercely. It was precisely because the scouts were the first to start the battle and could not get out, so they could not report the news at the first time, so that the armies of the two sides met suddenly and unnoticed, so that the two sides were unprepared for a fierce battle.
It was a battle without any formations and pre-war preparations. On a narrow mountain road that could only be used by a horse-drawn carriage to pass Guò, the two front armies met head-on. The preemptive Kebineng Qianjun undoubtedly has a slight upper hand, coupled with Kebineng himself as the first soldier, riding a horse and waving a knife as a pioneer, invisibly quickly opening up the situation, and giving full play to the advantage of being the first to strike. It greatly encouraged the fighting spirit of the soldiers of the department, and the morale was high and they moved forward bravely.

At the foot of the White Wolf Mountain, which is high and densely forested. Kebi can lead the Xianbei Iron Cavalry to open and kill bravely. The Wuhuan front army against him was the 30,000 Wuhuan cavalry led by Wuyan. In terms of the comparison of troops, the officers and men of the Wuyan Department have a clear advantage, and their strength is more than half of that of the Kebineng Department. However, the narrow mountain road limited the strength advantage of the Wuyan front army, and even if there were more than half of the soldiers and horses of the Kebi Neng Division, it was useless, and the cavalry of the Kebi Neng Division, which had taken the lead, was defeated and retreated, and it was even a wolf.
The most important thing is that when Wuyan saw that the general who led the army to rush over on the opposite side was Kebineng, the leader of the Xianbei in the central region. He was timid. Instead of leading the army to fight and resist, he turned around as soon as possible, and turned around without losing time. The impact of this move is enormous.
Soldier bears one. Will be a litter.
As a vanguard general, Wuyan took the lead in retreating and avoiding the battle, which invisibly greatly weakened the will to fight of the soldiers under his command, and suddenly frustrated the morale that had just boiled. Forthwith. There will be no fighting spirit. The soldiers have no fighting spirit. Under the influence of Wuyan's passive avoidance of the war, the Wuhuan front army could not stop the formation of Kebi Neng's brave rush to kill, and retreated while fighting. Then he and the Wuhuan cavalry who followed closely behind crowded into a group, and they were in a dilemma, which caused the Wuhuan cavalry to collide with each other. Many cavalrymen were squeezed out of the mountain road with men and horses, and fell into the mountain stream below the mountain road, and the sound of neighing and terrible screams was extremely miserable. Appalling.
The more chaotic it is, the more tragic it becomes. Under the pressure of the Kebineng army step by step. The 30,000 Wuhuan front troops hugged and blocked the back, pushed forward and pushed back, crouched into a ball, and blocked the mountain road. As a result, the cavalry at the forefront were all pushed and pushed into battle by the Wuhuan iron cavalry behind, and were pushed in front of the Xianbei iron cavalry, and became the soul of the Xianbei people.
As wave after wave of Wuhuan cavalry was cut off their horses, the mountain road gradually became clear. The panicked Wuhuan front army passively changed the rear team into the front team, and retreated in a panic, so as to take the initiative to make way for the Xianbei iron cavalry led by Kebineng, and was chased and killed by the Xianbei iron cavalry all the way, and the Wuhuan front army led by Wu Yan fell into a daze, fled in a hurry, and was exhausted.
And the source of this fiasco is on Uyan. He was afraid of Kebineng, knowing that he was no match for Kebineng at all. In order to save his life, at the moment of an unexpected encounter with Kebineng, he did not have the courage to fight against Kebi at all, and subconsciously retreated, directly leading the entire 30,000 Wuhuan soldiers of the entire front army to collapse without a fight. So much so that in a complete defeat, the 30,000 Wuhuan front troops trampled on each other to the death, far more than the souls who died under the swords of the Xianbei people.
The rout of the Wuhuan front army invisibly boosted the fighting spirit of the Xianbei Iron Cavalry. Led by Kebineng, the 20,000 Xianbei Iron Cavalry continued to advance after an initial period of stagnation, and accelerated their march as they pursued the defeated army of Wuyan. In this way, it had almost no impact on the later Eastern Expeditionary Army, so that the follow-up army entered the northern foot of White Wolf Mountain one after another and entered the narrow mountain road.
????????????????????????
Da-da-da-da!
"Report ——— Kebi Neng Department encountered the Wuhuan front army ten miles ahead, and the two sides started a fierce battle, and the Wuhuan front army has been killed and retreated by the Kebi Neng Department and is in pursuit!" The sentry who rode a horse to report the battle was Zhao Yun's personal soldiers.
"Encounter?" When Li Li heard this, he immediately groaned, subconsciously brushed the green beard under his chin, and frowned slightly, thoughtfully.
After hearing Li Li's words, Zhuge Liang's eyes flashed, and he immediately stepped forward to ask the scout about the detailed battle situation. The scouts answered all questions, and immediately told them in detail about the battle that had just happened, and did not dare to hide it at all.
Waving his hand to signal the scout to retreat and rest for a while, Zhuge Liang rode his horse and stood beside Li Li, and said in a low voice: "Recently, it has rained heavily, and the marching speed of our army is very slow, and it stands to reason that the Wuhuan barbarian army should know the whereabouts of our army and the speed of its march." If so, where is the encounter? In addition, our army sent two scouts, but they were entangled with Wuhuan scouts in the White Wolf Mountain, and none of them came back to report the news. Is it all a coincidence? ”
Speaking of this, Zhuge Liang paused, shook the feather fan lightly, and his sleeves swayed in the wind. After a moment of silence, he continued: "Wechen never thinks that there are really coincidences in the world. Anything that seems to be a coincidence must be man-made, and today's events are no exception. I wonder if the Lord thinks so? As soon as he spoke, a different color flashed in Zhuge Liang's eyes, as if he was worried and murderous. Obviously, he thought that this encounter was quite strange and had something to do with the former military Kebi Neng Division.
Li Li's expression was unusually calm after hearing this, his face was unwavering, and he couldn't see joy or anger. After thinking for a while, he still didn't say anything, and said unexpectedly: "Under the First World War, the Wuhuan front army lost more than 3,000 soldiers, and the Kebineng army suffered less than 1,000 casualties. It seems that Kebi can account for the soldiers and horses very elite, and the combat power is not bad, far better than the Wuhuan cavalry! Turning his head to look at Zhuge Liang, Li Li's eyes were deep, giving people an unfathomable and profound feeling.
"What the lord said is very true." Zhuge Liang nodded in response as if he had realized something, "The scouts in the rear have reported that there is no change in the Xianbei Royal Court, and there is no sign of barbarian soldiers and horses within a radius of a hundred miles of our army, and everything is as calm as usual." ”
At the end, Zhuge Liang added: "It's too quiet, it's a little weird, unusual." ”
Li Li bowed his head slightly, and said in a deep voice: "Yes." This time, our army sent 100,000 troops to the east to conquer Wuhuan, and did not deliberately hide their whereabouts along the way, but did not encounter resistance or resistance from the barbarian departments, which was indeed quite abnormal. The white wolf mountain in front of you is undulating, the mountains are high and the forests are dense, the ancient trees are towering to the sky, there is no end in sight, and it is enough to hide 100,000 soldiers. In such a dangerous place, the Barbarian Army of Badun actually encountered our front army unexpectedly, and was defeated in the first battle, losing thousands of war horses in vain. Hehehe??????" Li Li laughed meaningfully, the laughter was cold, but not a sneer.
Zhuge Liang nodded lightly, and said: "Recently, I made a secret report, and when I fled back to Liucheng, I had a secret discussion with the leaders of the Wuhuan tribe for half a day, and then summoned all the young and strong men of the tribe to go to Liucheng to assemble, and contacted the barbarian tribes of Youbeiping, Anyang, Liaoxi, Liaodong and Monan, and gathered heavy troops again, wanting to fight a decisive battle with our army again.
It is preliminarily estimated that the strength of the barbarian army gathered in Liucheng this time should be no less than the troops of the previous decisive battle of Lulongsai, at least more than 100,000 people. Moreover, the barbarian army was not limited to the Wuhuan and Xianbei tribes, and it is said that the Buyeo people in the east also sent more than 10,000 soldiers and horses to join the alliance to participate in the war, trying to get a piece of the pie. Therefore, the battle of White Wolf Mountain will be a decisive battle that will determine the pattern of Youzhou and Saiwai, and the good and evil are uncertain and cannot be underestimated. This is Zhuge Liang's kind and tactful reminder, and the statement is powerful, so that Li Li can make decisions.
Li Li's expression changed slightly, a solemn look flashed between his eyebrows, and he disappeared in a flash, so he chuckled: "It's more than a hundred thousand barbarian iron horses." From this point of view, the reason why the northeastern border is perennially turbulent and the border is restless is not without reason. These barbarian tribes entrenched in the northeastern corner and in the grasslands outside the Saiwai are numerous and powerful, and they all make a living by plundering our Dahan border counties, and in a certain way, they have common interests. In this way, it is not surprising that they have repeatedly formed alliances with our Han army as enemies. ”
Speaking of this, a flash of brilliance appeared in Li Li's eyes, and he said in a low voice: "Compared with these barbarian states, Kebineng is an outlier. He took the initiative to form an alliance with me, in a vain attempt to use the power of our Han army to help him unify the Xianbei tribes, and then dominate the grassland. Before that, I always thought that was what he really meant, but now ?????? I had to reorient him.
This man's meticulousness and plan are far beyond our expectations, and even ?????? The army of my Eastern Crusade and the hundreds of thousands of barbarian troops carefully contacted by Bunton are all in his plot. A decisive battle that determines the pattern of Youzhou is still unavoidable, and after the decisive battle, no matter who wins on both sides, it will be a miserable victory, although the victory is still defeated. After the winner is divided, the central Xianbei army has sprung up, and you can get the benefits of the fisherman. Sandpiper and clam fight, kill two birds with one stone, the end is a good calculation, a good strategy! ”
"Ahh Zhuge Liang heard the change of color, the light of wisdom in his eyes flickered again and again, and he instantly captured the core vein in his mind in a hurry. Don't??????
