Chapter 407: A man should be like iron, and a hundred tempers will become steel
"It should be safe here!" The army led by Gao Yi was all cavalry, so although the enemy army was outnumbered, there was no way to stop it, and in a short time, Gao Yi broke out of the encirclement. {We don't write novels, we're just web text porters-
When they arrived at the foot of a hillside, a team of hundreds of people suddenly flashed, and when several princesses were secretly screaming badly, Liu Hua suddenly said in surprise: "Husband, why are you?"
The person who came was Liu Hua's husband, but General Hou Fuguo finished ambushing, he smiled and said to Gao Yi: "Thanks to Meng De's clever calculation, he sent someone to contact me as early as when he was in Luoyang, and I also heard Meng De talk about the matter of you coming to Hongnong, so he asked me to wait here, and sure enough, within half a month, you came!"?
Liu Jian and Liu Xiu have also seen Fu Wan: "Uncle has a heart!"?
After Fu Wan, he saw that there were only three people, and he expected that Princess Wannian did not come out, so he saluted Liu Jian and said, "The two of you have worked hard!"?
Gao Yi laughed: "It seems that my hard work has not been in vain, by the way, Master Hou, you have been in Hongnong for a long time, you should be familiar with the situation here, right?
Fu Wan said: " I'm ashamed to say that I only know one or two about the situation of Hongnong, there are dozens of anti-thieves here, and they have always been a big trouble for the imperial court, this is not counting, in recent days, Zhang Yan of the Montenegrin Army also led 100,000 people out of the state to Hongnong, the Montenegrin Army is a thief who has risen in recent years, and it is the strongest in the Yellow Turban Yukou, Zhang Yan is the most capable general in the Montenegrin Army, and even the late Ding Yuan is also afraid of three points, this time I can come to Hongnong because Ding Yuan died and the state is empty, I think the White Wave Thief and the Montenegrin Army must not be satisfied with the barren and the state, and want to expand new territory based on this!”?
"I see, I know!" Gao Yi touched his chin, "Dong Zhuo's troops seem to be going through a protracted tough battle, Lord Hou, princess, in this case, you can't stay in Hongnong, the eldest princess of Wannian had already negotiated with Dong Zhuo when she came, and lied to him that she would assassinate the three eldest princesses in Hongnong, so once Dong Zhuo's eyeliner found out the truth, the consequences would be unimaginable!"?
Fu Wan nodded: "I will disguise myself with a few eldest princesses, go east to Jizhou along the Yellow River, take refuge in Yuan Shao, the Taishou of the Bohai Sea, and call on more righteous people to crusade against Dong Zhuo's rebels in the name of the Great Han!"?
Gao Yi looked at the people around, and said with a solemn expression: "The Han family is sluggish, my courtiers are not effective, and the princess is tired to come forward to suffer, until now the eldest princess is still under the half-surveillance of Dong Zhuo's army!"?
Liu Hua finished saying: "Yin Feng is a person who understands righteousness, and I ask Dr. Gao to worry about her safety!"?
"You can rest assured about this!" Gao Yi straightened his armor and said goodbye to everyone, "There will be a period later!"?
I, Gao Yi, won't let anyone hurt half a hairy hair of Princess Wannian!?
"The whole army is marching to the north, and you must find General Maten's troops!"?
"General, in fact, we don't need to spend time with these Xiaoxiao here!" In an open field in the north of Hongnong, Ma Teng was commanding his army to kill the thief army, and a captain next to him whispered.
Ma Teng observed the battle situation from time to time, glanced at the captain and said: "That's not the case, my life's ambition is to sweep away the world and sweep away the riots in the four seas, which is also the reason why many people entered the court as officials after the Yellow Turban Rebellion, but I still don't want to disarm and continue to fight, I have been fighting horses for many years, and I am not used to living idle days!"?
The lieutenant immediately flattered: "What the general said is extremely true, now that Dong Zhuo is in power, how many people in the imperial court have died well?" The emperor Song Zhu Jun and Lu Zhi, who once commanded the pacification of the Yellow Turban with Dong Zhuo, are sick and sick, and the evening scene is not bleak, only the general is the wisest, and only by holding the military power can people not underestimate themselves!"?
Ma Teng was furious: "Bold! How can I, Ma Shoucheng, be a person who supports soldiers and respects himself?"?
The lieutenant's face immediately changed: "What the villain said is true, if Dong Zhuo wasn't afraid of the general's tens of thousands of troops, how could he send a large army to Hongnong?"
"Hey!" Ma Teng sighed, "I have no selfish grudges with Dong Zhuo, you see that Gao Yi has also entered Beijing, and there is nothing to do, I believe that as long as I am willing to let go of the military power, he will not do anything to me!"?
The lieutenant was shocked: "The general must not have such thoughts!"?
Ma Teng said in a deep voice: "The Son of Heaven ordered me to return to Beijing, and I delayed it, it is already a crime of disobeying the holy decree, although I know that Dong Zhuo did it, but there is no way!"?
"Report!" the herald came from afar, "Niu Fu of the Xiliang Army led an army of 50,000 into Hongnong City, and now it has been heavily surrounded by the White Wave Thieves and the Black Mountain Army!"?
"What?" Ma Teng was taken aback, "no wonder all the enemies we have encountered in the past few days, and the real main force of the enemy has long avoided the sight of our army and set up an ambush in the south!"?
The captain said, "Is the general going to the rescue?"
Ma Teng nodded: "If this army is destroyed, it will be a heavy loss for my Han!"?
"There is an enemy situation!" the soldier looked in panic at the hundreds of cavalry in the distance.
"The whole army is on alert!" Ma Teng did not dare to be careless, and could see that the opposing troops had undergone strict training and war tests.
"But General Ma Teng?" the soldiers who were fighting in front of them saw that they were waiting for this place, and hurriedly dismounted and shouted.
"Who are you?" Ma Teng wondered who it would be at this time.
"General Ma, it's me, Gao Huohuo!" Gao Yi's voice came excitedly and excitedly, showing himself from the army.
"Gao Huohuo?" Huangfu Song quickly stepped forward, "Hahaha, it's really Mingyang, why did you come to Hongnong?"?
"It's a long story!" Gao Yi gasped, "I came to Hongnong with the Niu Fu army, but I was surrounded by hundreds of thousands of thieves, and I led the army to break through to the death to come here!"?
Ma Teng frowned: "It was an ambush designed by the thief army, and several officers and soldiers have been wiped out because of this, which also blames my negligence, I have been fighting for many years and will be able to win these carving insect skills!"?
Gao Yi urged: "Without further ado, let's leave immediately!"?
"Wait!" said the captain just now, "Dong Zhuojun originally came with the calculation of the general's army, now why don't we sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, and reap the benefits of the fisherman, isn't it better?"
"Presumptuous!" Ma Teng scolded, "Whether it is our army or Dong Zhuojun, it is all for the sake of sweeping away the subordinates and protecting the family and defending the country, and I Ma Teng will never be that kind of villain!"?
Gao Yi smiled: "Sure enough, it's still the Ma Teng I know, time flies, more than a year has passed, but it hasn't changed at all!"?
Ma Teng waved the command flag: "All the troops, show your courage and courage, this time you will annihilate the thief army in one fell swoop!"?
"No!" tens of thousands of people responded in unison.
Hongnong City, the siege of the city of white wave thieves densely attacked the east, west and south three city gates, the north gate of the Montenegrin army also attacked, but relatively much more orderly, the four city gates and city walls were broken, the defending troops had to defend while stepping up the repair of the city defense.
The sky was full of arrows like rain, corpses were everywhere, and the soldiers on both sides were suffering rapid casualties, but because the siege troops were basically civilians wearing simple weapons, and there were no decent siege equipment, they could only rely on the tactics of crowds to consume the defenders' bodies.
Niu Fu climbed the city wall and discussed the battle situation with Jia Xu: "It seems that we have fallen into the trap of the enemy, we have suffered thousands of casualties in just half a day, I don't know if we can hold on until the reinforcements arrive, not to mention that the reinforcements are also very slim!"??
Jia Xu squinted: "The enemy army is large, but fortunately it is not a regular army, so although our army has thousands of casualties, the other party's casualties must be no less than 30,000!"??
Niu Fu snorted coldly: "But the other party does have a lot of people, even if it wins, it will be a miserable victory, how to replace the main bus at that time?"??
Jia Xu said quietly: "The lord doesn't know the situation here, even if he comes in person, I'm afraid he won't be able to stand the crowd, most of the 50,000 horses brought this time are newly recruited people, and they don't practice military affairs, this is also a training opportunity for the lord to give the general and these soldiers!"??
Niu Fu smiled: "It's as if these thieves have made a pact with the Lord early in the morning!"??
Jia Xu also smiled: "This won't be, but, a man should be like iron, and a hundred refining methods become steel, this will never be wrong, it is useless to complain about the status quo, you can only fight with all your might!"??
"Mr. Kan is also quite a scheming person, how can he be helpless like this!" The voice of the wind came from behind.
Niu Fu Jia Xu immediately bowed down and saluted: "Your Royal Highness the eldest princess, it is very dangerous here, why did you come up in person?"??
The accompanying guards slurred: "General, Her Royal Highness the eldest princess must come, the villain really can't stop it!"??
"Stand down!" Niu Fu shouted, "Continue to protect the eldest princess, only a few of you are asking if you are on a business trip!"??
Yin Feng chuckled, this Niu Fu is really as stupid as a cow, and the three eldest princesses must have escaped safely at this time: "When I came, I told the Taiwei that I didn't come to visit the mountains and rivers, but to help make suggestions!"??
Jia Xu said: "Listening to the tone of the princess just now, it seems that there is a way to deal with the rebels?"??
Yin Feng didn't think for a moment and said, "Yes, go straight to the enemy's granary!"?
Niu Fu was overjoyed: "Or the princess is thoughtful! I'll order people to go out of the city-"??
"Wait!" Jia Xu stopped Niu Fu and looked at Yin Feng meaningfully, in fact, how could he not think of such a thing as destroying the enemy's grain and grass, but, "First, we don't know where the rebels are storing food, and even if we know it, it must be heavily defended there, how can it be broken overnight?"??
Yin Feng said coldly: "The food shortage is fake, and it is true to divert the attention of the rebels!"??
Niu Fu was stunned, and saw Jia Xu nodding and smiling, a little confused, what kind of dumb riddle are these two playing???
Jia Xu asked Yin Feng rhetorically: "Could it be a four-pronged approach of defense, food cut-off, repair, and ambush?"??
Yin Feng said: "Sir is really a resourceful man, I only think of the ambush roughly, and Mr. even thinks of the other three points!"??
Jia Xu smiled: "This is the reason why the princess agreed to let His Highness - the princess is familiar with the art of war, and there will always be some whimsical ideas, and the ministers are the most thoughtful and perfect implementation of these whimsical ideas!"??
Niu Fu laughed ugly, and the strategists would say something that made people fall into the clouds.
Jia Xu whispered to Niu Fu: "The most important thing to do at present is to grow the ambition of the rebels, destroy their own prestige, since ancient times, the arrogant army will be defeated, we just need to make the enemy feel that the victory is in hand, and then everything will be fine!"
