In the 480th century, the Zhanghu people surrendered, and the power of the Northern King increased greatly2

"I have a guess." Chun Ge took out a topographic map from his bosom, spread it on his knees, and said: "If I am the king of the north, facing the menacing Hu people, it is definitely the next strategy to face the enemy head-on. ”

"It's a good idea to lure the enemy deeper." Lin Xun's eyes flashed, and he said: "The advantage of the Hu people is that there are many soldiers, and we are outnumbered, so it is indeed not easy to attack rashly, but the weakness of the Hu people does not know the terrain. ”

"The king of the north has a thorough understanding of the north, but he is afraid that the Hu people will enter the territory of Yousu, and that is the turtle in the urn." In the years when Chunge was an official in Songcheng, he saw the military exercises of the North King from time to time, and in that place, Chun Ge dared to pack a ticket even if the North King was closed his eyes, he could walk around in a circle.

"The retreat of the Northern King made the Hu people take it lightly, and added the familiar terrain, the location is favorable, and the east wind will be far away?" Chunge pointed to one of the valleys on the map on his lap, breathed a sigh of relief, and smiled.

"It's too close to Jingshi." Lin Xun looked at the valley on the map, if it was in the footsteps of a soldier, if the army was unimpeded, it should be able to reach the capital in seven days.

"Don't forget, the King of the North doesn't need war to add to his prestige." If Chunge is the king of the north, he will definitely not let this war end prematurely, Su Jianyu wants to make the king of the north suffer a loss, with the character of the king of the north, he will definitely find a way back, and the best way is to scare Su Jianyu.

"If the Northern King quickly eliminated the Hu people, wouldn't it be more deterrent?" What Lin Xun said was to deter Su Jianyu, and the strong military strength was enough to make Su Jianyu's small abacus stop turning.

"The military talent of the Northern King is well known, and he won, what is so strange." Chun Ge spread his hands, looking like he took it for granted.

As soon as he lost, the emperor had to stop watching the fire from the other side, and the emperor made a move. It is inevitable to use the treasury, which is a decoration, so that the king of the north will have more opportunities to recuperate. Lin Xun thought of the grain and grass that Su Youren had borrowed. He said violently: "He still wants to pull you into the water." ”

"Yes, but I donated all my furniture to the treasury, but he didn't expect it, and it wasn't me who lent the grain to the king of the north, but the merchants in the southeast, and since I asked the merchants to borrow it, they must pay it back." Chunge's eyes were cold, and the king of the north wanted to put him along, but unfortunately he was a step too late, but he was calculated by Chunge.

"Then let's wait for the news of the victory of the Northern King." Lin Xun helped Chunge put away the map. Offering his shoulders to this guy, he hasn't rested for days, and this time he can finally get a good night's sleep.

In Chunge's news network, Su Youren still didn't have any news, and the king of the north seemed to be taking root in Songcheng. Those soldiers who have followed the king of the North all the year round. To this day, we can't forget the scene when the soldiers came to the city at that moment, and the king of the north resolutely retreated.

Time went back to half a month ago, and the North King received the news very early that the Hu people were attacking, so the personnel of the North King Mansion had begun to transfer. The arrogant people in the North King's Mansion thought that the North King was just doing this to avoid worries, but of course, the North King did not go into battle in person at the beginning. He is a veteran who has been stationed outside the Waibei Wangfu all the year round. I don't know if the Hu people were too cunning, or the veteran despised the enemy, and the leading cadre was wiped out in ten days.

So the Hu people led their 200,000 people and fought all the way to the nose of the king of the north. The army under the king of the north has not forgotten the humiliation more than ten days ago, and they have been fighting all year round. They have never suffered the loss of the entire army, so most of them are gearing up, vowing to let the Nahu people come and go. How do you know that people are not as good as heaven, but when the morale of the North was high, he ordered to retreat to Songcheng.

That's why there are now soldiers who are passive and slacking off. The order of the North King undoubtedly poured a basin of cold water on everyone, and the big guys didn't understand the intentions of the North King, but as soldiers, their duty was to obey, so they obeyed.

"Lord Wang, why do you want to withdraw from the army?" The man was about 60 years old, but he had a youthful face and was very well maintained. No one would have imagined that this person, who looked like a Taoist, was actually the No. 2 strategist under the Northern King, Bai Yuan.

"What is the morale of the army today?" The North King was still calm and flat.

"Down, or rather confused." Bai Yuan knew that it was not suitable for the King of the North to tear his face with Su Jianyu at this moment, but the King of the North said that his territory was handed over, and people undoubtedly slapped Su Jianyu in the face in front of the world.

"You're so confused." King Bei glanced at Bai Yuan, and sighed secretly in his heart, this staff member who had followed him for several years still couldn't reach that tacit understanding, he couldn't help but think of that young man, he was destined to miss the young man.

"Lord Wang, with the strength of the palace, only 200,000 people, how can we be forced to retreat." Bai Yuan was also a member of the army when he was young, don't look at him now he is a long shirt fluttering, his temper was notoriously hot back then.

"The Northern Palace's ability to easily block 200,000 soldiers and horses is really amazing." There was no expression on the face of the North King, but there was a little more coldness in his tone.

"That's natural, the prince has faded out of the battlefield for many years, but the strength is really there." Bai Yuan didn't hear the meaning of Beiwang's words at all, and followed his own train of thought as always.

"Elm head." King Bei glanced at Bai Yuan coldly and said, "After hiding for so many years, you want to make this king's efforts for so many years in vain." ”

"Lord Wang." Bai Yuan really didn't understand why the Northern King was so angry, the first strike on the battlefield, and the second strike was controlled by others, he stood in the perspective of a general, thinking that it was naturally the most convenient way to win.

Bai Yuan's trait really makes the king of the north love and hate, what he loves is that Bai Yuan has been following his heart for more than ten years, simply standing in the perspective of a general. What I hate is that Bai Yuan's dust remains unchanged, and what Beiwang needs now is someone who understands the overall situation.

In the current court, the North King is not only a vassal king, he is more of Su Jianyu's eyes. Why did he choose to hide his edges and corners when Su Jianyu ascended the throne, the reason is very simple, wait for the opportunity. The king of the north has ambitions, but he also has the corresponding ability, and the only thing he lacks is an identity. So the king of the north chose to wait for the opportunity.

The North King, who has shown weakness for many years, is still a thorn in the side in Su Jianyu's eyes, all at the moment when the Hu people attack, winning is only the final result, and how to win is the focus of the North King's thinking. Taking down the Hu people in one fell swoop, the king of the north really wanted to do this, it was a general's practice, not the choice of a royal family.

In exchange for the greatest benefit with the least damage, the North King has always pursued such a principle, and Chun Ge has also taught the North King a vivid lesson, sometimes showing weakness is to obtain greater benefits. If the king of the north attacked and took down the Hu people with lightning speed, all he got was a victory in a war and Su Jianyu's suspicions. If the king of the north retreats, he will use his actions to tell Su Jianyu that his North Wangfu is not as powerful as the world thinks, and when the king of the north succeeds in counterattacking, he can ask for more like Su Jianyu, and it is also a warning to Su Jianyu, his North King is a line of defense for Su, and whether it exists or not is very important.

During the half month that the Hu people occupied the Beiwang Mansion, the Hu people kept provoking Songcheng, but the North King just ignored it, even if those barbarians didn't have a clean word in their mouths, the North King's strong patience has been ignored for more than half a month. Finally, the king of the north summoned the generals.

"Lord Wang, the Hu people will go north in a few days, and our army should really stand still." One of the younger generals was the first to ask.

"You have a way to defeat the enemy." Beiwang took a sip of tea and asked lightly.

Bai Yuan, who had been silent for several days, responded without blinking: "Of course there is." ”

"When the Hu people came out of the Beiwang Mansion, they must have taken the ancient road, and Songcheng is just the exit to the ancient road, where our army will definitely be able to annihilate those Hu people in one fell swoop." Bai Yuan is worthy of being a military wizard, and the method he uses is to achieve the greatest victory with the least damage.

"Annihilating the Hu people in one fell swoop, what good will it do to the Northern Palace?" The soldiers present were all the North King's own people, so the North King could not shy away from asking.

"What do you mean?" Those soldiers are not all coarse, and a few of them are quite delicate.

"To win the battle, it is better to be good to Yousu, and better to be good to the palace, the scene of the emperor cutting the feudal domain is still vivid, if it weren't for Ben Wan's early statement, this southern palace is the future of the northern palace." The king of the north spoke like that, as if he had palpitations, his ambition never spoke, but slowly instilled in the hearts of his subordinates, and slowly those people would naturally cry out for him, and naturally he would be able to seek that position with confidence, and let people follow him with all their hearts.

"The emperor has become more and more excessive over the years." Their soldiers under these vassal kings became even poorer after the reduction of the feudal domain, and their status declined.

"Yes, the world in the north is all laid down with our help, and in a blink of an eye, it is the emperor who wants to deal with us." They are all battle-hardened generals, not stunned young men in the officialdom, Su Jianyu's behavior of cutting military salaries over the years has made these veterans feel deeply chilled.

"It's better to be the prince, if it weren't for the prince, relying on those Yulu who can't even eat the dogs, we would have starved to death." Although the Northern King did not resist Su Jianyu's reduction in military salaries, he gave subsidies to these old subordinates from the Northern Palace, and after so many years, it finally had an effect.

"It would be nice if the prince sat on that one." Bai Yuan blinked, sighed and said helplessly.

"Well, this king asked you to come, but I am not complaining." The king of the north glanced around at everyone and said, "Although the exit of the ancient road is a good place, the road to the north is uninhabited, so it can lure the Hu people in to avoid leaving trouble." ”

The North King's hand pointed to a valley, if Chun Ge was present, the two of them would definitely hug and cry, they were really confidants.
