Chapter 523 It's Not Simple

Liu Meng was disdainful of the Pingbei general of the Wei State, there were only 10,000 people, and the infantry accounted for more than half of them.

As for the extermination of the southern Xiongnu, Liu Meng didn't care at all, the southern Xiongnu was originally the weakest of the five, plus the southern Xiongnu were alone in Hedong County, and the distance between the other four was too far to save each other, and it was not a big deal to be wiped out by the Wei army in the end.

Now Liu Meng's main goal is still Jinyang City, only by taking Jinyang, can the unification of the Xiongnu in the true sense be realized, and only then can he have the strength to resist the Wei court.

As for Cao Liang's 10,000 horses, Liu Meng really has nothing to worry about, now the total number of men and horses of the four Xiongnu departments is almost more than 100,000, if Cao Liang dares to come to the state, isn't it more than enough to deal with him?

Liu Yue is a bitter face, Cao Liang's greatness, only those who have experienced it can understand, after the defeat in Pingyang, the entire southern Xiongnu was divided into two factions, the Huns who participated in the battle of Pingyang were all afraid of the war, and those who did not participate in the battle of Pingyang did not believe in evil, and insisted on taking the initiative to ask the Wei army to repay the blood debt.

At this moment, Liu Yue also regretted it very much, regretting that he should not have accepted the instigation of those leaders and took the risk to attack, which was the catastrophe of destruction, if he was more resolute at that time, he would have been in the ravine and play hide and seek with the Wei army, how could he have fallen to this point.

One thought of heaven, one thought of hell!

But Liu Yue looked at Liu Meng's confident and frivolous eyes, hesitated, and swallowed back what he wanted to say. Originally, the status of the southern Xiongnu was the lowest among the five tribes, and he was now displaced, like a lost dog, what qualifications did he have to teach Liu Meng how to do, if he really made Liu Meng unhappy, maybe he was worried about his life.

Under the low eaves, he had to bow his head, and he stood aside obediently, not daring to say anything more.

But Liu Bao's attitude was different from Liu Meng's, he listened to Liu Yue's words, he couldn't help but fall into deep thought, frowned, and asked Liu Yue in detail all the details of the battle, and grasped the situation of the Wei army completely.

Liu Bao nodded frequently, sometimes frowned, sometimes realized, seemed very patient, and took the initiative to ask questions from time to time, very seriously.

Liu Meng was a little impatient, he really didn't understand that Liu Bao would be so interested in such a small army, it stands to reason that the plan they are discussing now to attack Jinyang is a big plan, is it worth making such a fuss about the problem of ringworm?

However, Liu Bao is older than him, about the same age as his father, and his generation is also a generation apart.

Although in order to compete for power and profit, Liu Meng has regarded Liu Bao as his biggest opponent in his life, but on this occasion, Liu Meng still gave Liu Bao enough face and listened to their conversation very patiently.

Liu Meng was silent, naturally Liu Jiao and Liu Teng had no objections, and Liu Yue was the only one chattering there on the spot, and they had to listen calmly and honestly.

After finally elaborating on it, Liu Yue finished speaking, Liu Bao glanced at them, and said in a deep voice: "Everyone, this Pingbei general Cao Liang is not simple. ”

Liu Meng laughed secretly, but said quietly: "How does Uncle Leopard know that this person is not simple?" ”

Liu Bao said: "Although this Cao Liang is young, his achievements are extraordinary, and he has made many miraculous achievements in the battle of Wei and Shu, so he was entrusted with the position of General Pingbei." There are at least more than 10,000 people under the command of Liu Yue, the southern marshal, but they were easily defeated by him, and the whole army was almost wiped out. ”

Liu Yue's command, there are more than 10,000 cavalry, although the strength of the southern Xiongnu is worse than the left and right, but no matter what, the southern Xiongnu is also a force with good strength, in just over half a month, it was completely annihilated by the Wei army, let me ask, under the same conditions, can the left Xiongnu be completed?

The answer is no, Liu Bao asked himself that even if the soldiers and horses of the Huns on the left poured out, they might not be able to achieve such a result, unless the four Huns united, maybe it could be successful?

But the four Xiongnu departments are united, that is the scale of nearly 100,000 troops, Cao Liang has solved the problem with 10,000 people, which can only be solved by 100,000 people, doesn't this very show that this Cao Liang is not simple?

Fighting with cavalry, it is not difficult to defeat the opponent, it is rare to wipe out the opponent, such a battle, they have really rarely experienced before, the main reason is that the cavalry is too fast, once the battle is unfavorable, they can easily escape.

If it is not a miracle that Cao Liang's infantry-based army was able to annihilate more than 10,000 cavalry of the southern Xiongnu in one fell swoop, it really proves how outstanding the leader of this army is.

Liu Meng said with a haha: "Uncle Leopard, you are too cautious, why be afraid of dealing with a young man who is only in his twenties, everyone here believes that with the power of his headquarters, he can defeat Cao Liang." Now that the siege of Jinyang is besieging it, success or failure is in this move, how can there be extra soldiers and horses? ”

Liu Bao said: "Cao Liang came with the army at this time, naturally it was aimed at us, and it was natural to set up an ambush halfway, annihilate his troops in one fell swoop, and it was not too late to turn around and take Jinyang again." ”

Liu Meng said disappreciatively: "A yellow-mouthed child, his hair has not grown, and he actually learns to lead the troops to the battle, what a joke!" If Uncle Leopard really thinks that Cao Liang has the courage to enter Bingzhou, then Uncle Leopard might as well lead the soldiers and horses of his headquarters to intercept it? β€œ

Liu Meng's words are obviously for Liu Bao in the next set, a few more time they agreed, who took Jinyang City first, who will be the Hun Shan Yu, in Liu Meng's cognition, only Liu Bao has the strength to compete with him for a single position, he was still secretly planning to give Liu Bao a little stumbling block, not let him enter Jinyang City before him, this time Liu Bao actually took the initiative to ask for reinforcements from the Wei army, isn't it in Liu Meng's arms.

Liu Bao has lived for decades, how can he not know the thoughts in Liu Meng's stomach, but in Liu Bao's opinion, the struggle for power and profit at this time is obviously very naΓ―ve, if the Huns can't defeat the Wei army that came to merge the state, then even if they become a single Yu, what can they do?

Therefore, Liu Bao agreed without hesitation, and agreed with Liu Meng that one south and one north, break the Wei army, take Jinyang, and recapture what the Huns had lost before.
