Imperial Power Of Han Dynasty - Chapter 995
Chapter 995
“Wen Hou, Qin Gong has ordered you and I to lead the army to conquer Liaodong, what advice do you have?” Xu Huang said kindly to Lu Bu. Liu Ye deliberately told him that Lv Bu is aloof and arrogant, so Xu Huang must pay attention to Lv Bu’s emotions. Naturally, Xu Huang cares about the overall situation, so he will first ask Lv Bu’s opinions on everything.
Lü Bu sneered and said: “The mere Liaodong is not worth mentioning, I can get 10,000 riders on the level!”
Lu Bu led the cavalry conquest from the beginning of Dong Zhuo’s rebellion. He was naturally experienced. In his eyes, only Liangzhou cavalry was the only one in the world. Hezhou wolf cavalry and Youzhou Xiaoqi were elites. As for Liaodong cavalry, he was still short of fire. Especially Gongsun Du had just been wiped out by Cao Cao, and his elites were naturally tormented.
“Wen Hou’s words are not unreasonable, but our army still has to leave a division of the Cao army to guard against the plains to prevent future troubles.” Qingzhou is mainly distributed to the south of the Yellow River, but the plains of Qingzhou is in Hebei. In the hands of Cao Jun, it poses a threat to Jizhou and Youzhou.
“Well, if that’s the case, if someone left a military horse to defend against the plain country, our army marched from the west of Liaoning to sweep the east of Liaoning!”
After discussing with Lu Bu for a while, Xu Huang finally worked out a strategy plan for Liaodong: leaving five thousand paces to guard the Bohai Sea to prevent Cao Jun from attacking from the plain country. Xu Huang and Lv Bu both sent troops together, attacking slightly east of Liaodong with 40,000 infantry. Cao Jun’s strength in Liaodong area was relatively weak, and the attack on Liaodong area should be done by hand.
Just when Xu Huang and Lu Bu had just discussed a countermeasure, suddenly someone outside the door ran in and fell to the ground.
“Wenhou, Zhengbei, the latest information! Master Xianbei can lead an army of 50,000, tens of thousands of cattle and sheep to invade south, and the army is directed at Yanmen County!”
As the saying goes, the three armies did not move the grain and grass first. The Central Plains often worries about grain and grass during the war. The nomadic people’s grain and grass are naturally different from the farming peoples. They don’t farm land, but raise horses and sheep, so when they usually fight, they just drove a bunch of them. When the sheep go, they usually eat the sheep. When the sheep is eaten and before the battle is finished, they will naturally retreat. This is also the reason why the Han army often wins thousands of sheep after defeating the Xiongnu army. This is theirs. forage.
Lü Bu was naturally furious when he heard this: “It’s so much better than energy, it’s really itchy!”
Lv Bu was quite prestigious in Bingzhou in his early years, and he was called a flying general. Comparing Lv Bu with Li Guang, the famous parachutist of the Han Dynasty, it can be seen that the nomads were extremely jealous of Lv Bu. Later, Ding Yuan also heard of Lv Bu’s bravery. Because of this, Lu Bu was recruited into the army to serve as the master recorder. If it weren’t for this, maybe Lu Bu could really grow into a famous general like Li Guang.
“Don’t worry, Wenhou, the situation has changed.” Xu Huang said solemnly: “Our army is now defending the enemy from three sides. There are not a few enemy troops. I think our army should not act rashly. Please ask for instructions. The general is supreme.”
“When is the time, please ask the general!” Lu Bu said anxiously: “Xianbei cavalry marched fast, one person, two horses or even three horses, and within seven days they can reach Yanmen County. The terrain of Yanmen County is flat. How can they stop the enemy army? Offense!”
It is not that Xu Huang does not understand this truth. After all, he is a famous general who can achieve “long-term drive straight forward”. If he stays in place and asks Liu Ye for instructions, this war will definitely fall.
“Well, now I will send someone to ask the general for instructions, but I can’t remain indifferent. Ask General Lu to lead the Mianzhou Iron Cavaliers to go north to Yanmen County to defend against the enemy. How about I lead the infantry to go north slowly?” Xu Huang suggested.
Lu Bu nodded, and immediately led the generals of Binzhou to rush out the door: “A certain will rectify the cavalry to set out tonight, let this group of thieves know that I am a great man!”
Seeing the figure of Lu Bu rushing out of the wind and fire, Xu Huang couldn’t help but shook his head and smiled: “This Wen Hou, really…”
In September of the 15th year of Jian’an, the master of Xianbei, Kebi, led 50,000 cavalry to the south. However, the nomads of this period were actually far less terrifying than the Liao, Jin and Mongolia in the Song Dynasty. They did not have heavy cavalry such as Iron Buddha and Iron Harrier, and they used arrows made of bones.
At the end of the Han Dynasty, Zhang Huan and Duan Ying from Liangzhou Sanming attacked the Qiang at the same time. The Han army injured only a few hundred people, but killed 10,000 Qiang people. Behind this huge disparity, there are billions of military expenditures. Expenditures.
Therefore, Lu Bu led 15,000 cavalry to the north, and the difference between the two armies was no more than three times. Isn’t this battle done?
At the same time, Xu Huang shot a whistle and galloped towards Liu Ye’s army.
“The Xianbei dare to offend my great Han Tianwei? Huh, I really don’t know how to live or die.” Liu Ye couldn’t help but smile coldly when he looked at the letter sent by Xu Huang. The Han people have endured severe disasters since the Western Jin Dynasty. Liu Ye’s tolerance for Hu people is zero. After he even plans to defeat Cao Cao, the next step is to follow the example of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and lead his army to expedite the Hu people in the north. The disaster was completely eliminated, and I never thought that these Xianbei people would have dared to jump out to find death. In that case, don’t blame him for being cruel!
Guo Jia said: “General, there is something strange behind this matter. Xianbei has always been respectful to the court, how can he suddenly turn his face now?”
Liu Ye raised his brows: “What do you mean?”
“Didn’t the Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang brothers run away that day? It is said that Yuan Shao spent a lot of effort to win over the Xianbei people when he was in the past. I am afraid that Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang brothers fled to the Xianbei people, and then…”
Liu Ye nodded slightly. This is true in history. After Yuan Shang and Yuan Xi failed against Cao Cao, he first fled to Liucheng to seek shelter from Wuhuan Tadun. After Cao Cao’s expedition collapsed and defeated Wuhuan, he fled to Liaodong, and he was finally passed on Cut off their heads and took the initiative to send the heads of the two people to Cao Cao.
Now that there is no Gongsundu, the Xiliang army can only do it by itself.
“Yuan Shao really took a lot of thought to win over the Xianbei people. I didn’t expect to cause so much trouble to our army after death.” Ma Chao said coldly, and then asked Liu Ye for orders: “General, Ma Chao is willing to lead five thousand horses northward. , To capture and kill Ke Bineng’s head, dedicated to the account.”
“Hehe, why should General Ma do it himself? Naturally, someone will dedicate the head of Kebineng to the account.” Jia Xu laughed.
“It seems that Wen He has already thought about it. It is really the same as the hero.” Guo Jia smiled.
Jia Xu and Guo Jia laughed straight, but they confused Ma Chao. He couldn’t figure it out, and said to the two of them: “Please tell me if the two gentlemen have any tricks. Ma Chao can’t guess what the martial artist has.”
