Chapter 48 Breaks
Feng Ye couldn't take these people away for the time being, so he simply organized the young men and distributed weapons and armor. Many of the young and strong were defeated and captured officers and soldiers, and even more were bitter and bitter people who were ruined by the scourge of Donghu. Especially after being captured, being treated as a slave, the Donghu people beat and scolded at every turn, which is simply not a human life.
At this moment, he was rescued by Feng Ye, and they all expressed their desire to join the army, follow Feng Ye, and take revenge on the Donghu people.
"This king is Feng Ye, the ninth son of the current emperor, and was named the king of Liaodong by His Majesty. This time, the king heard that you were captured by Donghu, and came to the rescue. However, in order to rescue you this time, this king is a light cavalry deep, and the army is still behind to confront the main force of Donghu.
Because the number of people far exceeds the expectations of this king, I cannot bring you back to Liaodong for the time being. The king hopes that you will be able to stay here for a while, and then come and take you home after the king has broken the enemy. Feng Ye said impassionedly.
The reason why I say this is to buy people's hearts, and secondly, to give these people some confidence. You can't tell them that he, Feng Ye, wants to use 3,000 Dongning Iron Cavalry to exterminate Donghu's 200,000 army, right? Once they know the truth, I'm afraid they will think Feng Ye is crazy. When the time comes, it will cause unnecessary chaos.
When Feng Ye led the army to pass by the Donghu army, he had already been seen by Donghu's Tanma, which Feng Ye did not hide, but also deliberately exposed.
If you attack the enemy, you must save it, and it can be regarded as an alternative siege of Wei to save Zhao. Feng Ye's hand immediately attracted the army of Donghu Middle Road, and they ran back desperately. How many people is there in the entire Dongning Wei? Counting the robbed Hu women and the recruited farmers, there are only more than 20,000 people, and most of these people are still poor, how much food and wealth can they have?
Such a small city, and there is not much wealth, but there are 60,000 troops in the city, and it will not be able to fight it for a while and a half. Once the logistics were cut off by Feng Ye. Their army of more than 100,000 will surely be self-defeating.
The remaining three people still rushed to Dongning according to the original plan. This was somewhat unexpected by Feng Ye. It seems that there are not no smart people among Donghu. Instead of being led by Feng Ye's nose, it is better to implement the tactic of changing houses.
The Donghu people thought that they were outnumbered, and even if they divided their troops, they could still defeat Feng Ye. At this moment, they didn't know that the 20,000 elites who stayed behind had been wiped out by Feng Ye. And the people who chose to return to help were also targeted by Feng Ye at this moment.
More than 200 miles, even a rapid march would take two days. And the general who returned to the reinforcement chose to divide the troops wisely, and let 10,000 people rush back quickly, and he himself followed behind with more than 20,000 people, as well as grain, grass, baggage and other materials.
According to his thoughts, there are still 20,000 elites of various ethnic groups in the camp. No matter how fast the speed of Dongning Iron Cavalry is, more than 200 miles, how can it run for a day, right?
And his vanguard troops can rush back in two days. Even if Feng Ye, the king of Liaodong, no matter how famous he is, he won't capture the logistics camp in just one day, right?
At that time, the garrison and his forward troops, the two sides should cooperate inside and outside, and attack back and forth, and they will definitely be able to defeat the newly promoted Liaodong King Feng Ye in one fell swoop.
It's a pity that Feng Ye's Dongning Iron Cavalry can't be judged by the common sense of this era at all. One false step will make a great difference.
Feng Ye spent half a day organizing the young and strong army, and got the news that the generals were going to divide the troops. It was a surprise to him. After lunch that day, he led the army to the battle.
Just more than a hundred miles, for Dongning Tieqi, it is a matter of more than half an hour. Just when the Donghu vanguard was marching rapidly against the autumn tiger, Feng Ye's iron cavalry arrived.
"Assault on the whole army. Feng Ye gave an order, and the Dongning Iron Cavalry began to accelerate the assault out of the sight of the Donghu people. It turned out that this kind of accelerated assault could perfectly leave Donghu's scouts behind and eat dirt.
No matter how many scouts the other party sent, it didn't have the slightest effect. In the assault process of the Dongning Iron Cavalry, there is no difference between the blind and the deaf.
The 10,000 Donghu army was defeated by a surprise attack by the Dongning Iron Cavalry. These Donghu soldiers are just ordinary herdsmen, but they are better at riding. There is no way to compare with Dongning Iron Cavalry.
Feng Ye didn't even send people to chase and kill the fleeing Donghu people, and for the first time, he didn't collect the spoils of war, so he took the Dongning Iron Cavalry to attack again. Time is pressing, there are still two days to go, and the main force of Donghu will enter the boundary of Dongning.
With the locust-like beating nature of these Donghu people, once they enter the territory of Dongning, they are afraid that they will immediately cause a scene of scorched earth for thousands of miles.
In the afternoon, Feng Ye once again assaulted the main force that had returned to Donghu. The Donghu people who were hurrying with a large number of baggage were unsuspecting and were directly attacked by Feng Ye.
The Donghu people are not a professional army, and in terms of discipline, they are not even as good as the officials and soldiers of the imperial court. When fighting a good battle, everyone is brave and rushes up. When they were assaulted, they immediately showed the inferiority of the military qualities of these people.
After being beheaded by Feng Ye, they immediately scattered and fled after losing their command. He left behind a large number of grain, grass, baggage, cattle, sheep and horses.
Feng Ye didn't send people to chase and kill the fleeing Donghu people, he also needed these people to report to the other Donghu troops. After defeating this group of Donghu people who came back to help, he was not in a hurry. Send people to collect the spoils of war, and at the same time send people back to the battlefield that has not been cleaned just now, and collect the horses of the vanguard troops.
As long as the news spreads, Donghu will inevitably come back to help. There is still a glimmer of life after returning to the rescue, otherwise the back road will be copied, and they will definitely die if they carry no amount of grain and grass.
Feng Ye estimated: Donghu still has a three-way army, more than 100,000 people. The first route of reinforcements was more than 30,000 and nearly 40,000, and the whole army was annihilated. Once they got the news, it was impossible for them to send any more people back. That's simply a tactic to add fuel to, and it's a taboo for soldiers.
If there are two ways to help, Feng Ye can rely on the speed of Dongning Iron Cavalry to spare those two people and attack the remaining people. So if Donghu Shan Yu is not stupid, he should choose to fight back with the whole army.
Feng Ye simply retreated with the whole army, although he took the baggage of the Donghu people and the cattle, sheep and horses, the speed was a little slower. It took more than a day to rush back to the booty camp. The young men who had just been organized were originally a little apprehensive, but they didn't expect that in just two days, the king of Liaodong won another big victory.
What Feng Ye didn't expect was that less than two days after he left, there were a lot of problems in the camp. These guys, who were slaves in Donghu two days ago, suddenly had other careful thoughts when they saw Feng Ye leading the army to leave. Form a gang and dominate beautiful women. It's like turning over and being a big official.
