Chapter 1381: Pacifying the Huns

At the end of August last year, the Empress Dowager died, and Wu Yu received a holy decree from Emperor Jianlong, asking him to return to Beijing to hold a funeral for the Empress Dowager.

Of course, Wu Yu also got a secret letter from the third brother at the same time, telling him to pretend to enter Beijing, pretend to be robbed and escape halfway, and not return to Beijing.

So when he encountered the Khitan ambush soldiers in the canyon dozens of miles outside Yanmen Pass, Wu Yu thought that these people were pretended to be sent by the third brother. Later, because of these people's killers, Wu Yu and Wu Cone and others were shocked to realize that they had really encountered an ambush, and Wu Yu took the opportunity to escape with people and avoid the deep mountains, intending to hide and wait for the news of the third brother according to the original plan.

Coincidentally, a few days after Wu Yu and the others took refuge in the mountains, they found that the Khitans who planned to kidnap him did not secretly return to the Khitan, but continued to lurk in the territory of Zhou.

Because the rebels in Montenegro were rampant at that time, and the White Horse Military Division, the Heishui Military Division, and the Gansu Military Division in the northwest were difficult to distinguish between friend and foe, Wu Yu did not inform the defenders of the whereabouts of the Khitans in these places, but only secretly sent someone to send a letter back to Mobei to inform the defender Tenghu in Mobei.

Who knew that the messenger was discovered by the rebels when he passed through the border of the Montenegrin Military Division, and failed to send the news back to Mobei, but was intercepted by the rebels.

Later, Wu Yu tracked down and learned that these Khitans were running for 100,000 stones of grain and grass, and these grains and grass had fallen into the hands of the Huns at that time. The Khitan secretly colluded with the Montenegrin rebels, intending to snatch grain and grass from the Huns.

Hearing Wu Yu say this, the third master and Wu Huan both frowned, the imperial court deployed hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses in the northwest, but the Khitan and Huns were like no one!

Wu Yu was also angry at this time, 100,000 stone grain and grass was not a small amount, and it must not be transported away by the Huns.

In the situation of being isolated and helpless, Wuyu sent the Black Guard to find Gao Chong, the former general of Yulin Wei and the current deputy general of the Mobei Patrol Battalion, who was patrolling near Mobei and Montenegro. Wu Yu and Gao Chong made a plan to "secretly" reveal the whereabouts of this batch of grain and grass to Li Zhun, the guard general of Yutian, Gansu Province, who was closest to the location of the military grain, and then set up a bait to lure the Khitan and Montenegrin rebels lurking in the dark to be exposed, and fight with the Huns, and then let Gao Chong lure Li Zhun to come, so that he could make a profit and smuggle away this batch of grain and grass.

And this bait is none other than Wu Yu himself.

When Wu Yu said this, he couldn't bear to cry out, "I wasn't completely sure at that time, and I was ready to become a benevolent person if I didn't succeed." Uncle Cone couldn't bear to let me get into danger, so he sent me away in a daze, and he was the bait for me. When I woke up, the military rations had been stolen by Li Zhun, and the Khitans and Montenegrin rebels returned empty-handed, but the Huns had captured Uncle Cone and a dozen black guards and dragged them behind their horses. He threatened that if I didn't save them, I would divide them into five horses. ”

The things that followed, there is no need for Wu Yu to say, the third master and Wu Huan also know.

"When I arrived, the Huns had already dismembered the bodies of the two Black Guards and Five Horses. Then, in front of me, the Huns killed Uncle Cone, cut off his head, and made it into a wine vessel. Wu Yu's voice trembled, and tears flowed from his eyes.

Xu felt that he was still useful, and the Huns did not kill Wu Yu but brought him back to the Xiongnu, first imprisoned him and then drove him to a desolate place to shepherd sheep. Knowing that He Lan negotiated terms with the Huns, he smuggled him and Jin Buchang back to Montenegro.

"Click!" The teacup in Wu Huan's hand shattered in the palm of his hand, and his eyes were red.

Wu Cone has followed his grandfather for many years, he is the general of the Right Jin Wuwei, the commander of the Black Guard of the Wu family, the housekeeper of the Wu family, the backbone of the Wu family when his grandfather was tortured by injuries in his later years, and the elder who watched Wu Huan grow up. Hearing that he ended up like this, how could Wuhuan not be in pain.

"I got the news when I was in the Huns, and I learned that General Gao Chong also died in Yutian. Third brother, Wu Huan, it's all my incompetence that will make Uncle Cone and Gao Chong fall to death. Wu Yu felt guilty.

Wuhuan slowed down before he said, "You can't blame Big Brother for this." If it were a different place, I would also find a way to keep 100,000 stone grains and grass, but the strategies that Wuhuan could think of were not as good as those of my eldest brother. ”

The third master asked, "100,000 stone grains and grass is not a small number, but Li Zhun was able to hide them without revealing them at all, so that Chai Yantan, Jiang Changsheng and Chai Ren'an did not find any clues after checking for several months, which shows that he has long been anti-minded." Wu Huan, you send this news out immediately, and then order 50,000 elite soldiers to rush to the Gansu Military Division overnight, capture Li Zhun, and find out the whereabouts of the military rations. ”

Li Zhun has less than 20,000 men under his command, and in the past few months, he has asked the court for a lot of grain and grass in the name of helping to defeat the Montenegrin rebels, and the 100,000 stone grain and grass must still be there.

Wuhuan immediately responded and got up to leave.

When Wuhuan left, Wu Yu lay on the table and cried. The third master waved his hand to let Xuanqi retreat, and he sat quietly in place.

Wu Yu vented enough, wiped away his tears and looked up and asked, "Third brother, am I still as useless as before?" ”

The third master handed him a cup of tea, and then said, "You did the right thing about blocking grain and grass." If you hadn't stopped this batch of grain and grass and let it fall into the hands of the rebels, Khitans or Huns, the situation in the northwest and Mobei would have been much more serious than it is now. You can judge the situation and stand up regardless of your personal safety, the third brother is very pleased. ”

"But......" Wu Yu didn't say any more, but the third master continued.

"But you're still missing. As the head of the Wu family, you can't let the black cone act according to your orders at the critical moment, this is your usual failure to govern the family strictly, this is one of them. Because of this loss, Wu Cone and others died. ”

"Gao Chong is a battlefield tiger general, but he is not good at meeting strategies. You asked him to negotiate with the scheming Li Zhun because he was using people inappropriately, which is the second thing. Because of this loss, Gao Chong died. ”

"Since you suspect that Li Zhunhui is secretly hiding grain and grass, you shouldn't just talk about revealing the whereabouts of grain and grass to him alone, if you reveal a few more forces, these grains and grass cannot be hidden by one force. If they divide it privately, they will definitely leave clues, and Chai Ren'an can find out the whereabouts of the military rations according to these clues; If they do not privately distribute the military rations, but instead report to the imperial court for merit and profit, the imperial court will not have any losses, this is it. Because of this loss, the military rations were hidden by Li Zhun to this day. ”

Wu Yu was convinced.

The third master changed his words and praised again, "But as Wuhuan said, you can come up with such a strategy in the isolated situation at that time, and stop the 100,000 stone grain and grass that will be transported away by the Huns, although this plan will damage the two generals, it is still desirable." ”

Wu Yu raised his head, "But if the third brother is here, he will definitely be able to come up with a perfect plan." ”

The third master thought for a while and shook his head, "If I was here at the time, I would also prefer to take risks alone." I dare to choose this because my kung fu is good enough to get out with confidence, and you can't. The black cone will disobey your orders, and that's because of that. ”

Ucon was entrusted by the old general to protect Uyu's safety, so when he judged that Ebonyu's strategy would put him in danger, his first choice was to follow the old general's last wish to protect Emissa instead of following Emissa's orders.

Black Feather clenched his fists, "I'm not strong enough!" ”

"Yes, if you want to convince others, you have to be strong enough. This strength is not only fists and feet, courage, but also a mind that calculates everything. ”

The third master continued, "In the past ten years, the third brother has suffered defeats, and the loss of manpower is several times that of you. The eldest husband should learn from the pain, and the next time he encounters something, he should consider it thoroughly. In a few days, you want you to lead your troops to defeat the Huns with minimal losses, possibly do? ”
