52. The big picture can be determined
The crescent moon is bent, and it is looking down at this war-torn ancient fortress in the clouds with its soft gaze that has not changed for thousands of years. The door of the silent east was quietly opened, and hundreds of sturdy bulls with gray cloth covered heads, mouth stuffed with debris, and horns and sharp knives were appeased and rushed out. He was followed by a column of fully armed, excited, and strutting soldiers of the Xinghan Red Tiger Cavalry.
Because the east gate of Yundong connects to the grain route of the Xinghan army, it has always been under the blockade of the cavalry, so the Xianbei cavalry post does not exist here. The heavily defended Xianbei battalion, which was several miles away, of course, had no way of detecting the situation, and in order for this well-prepared surprise attack to achieve a perfect end, in the past few days, the Red Tiger Iron Cavalry had repeatedly swept around the east gate, so that Budugen did not dare to send a cavalry sentry here. However, Budugen, who was dreaming of recovering his old nest in the big tent, never expected that tonight would be destined to become a lingering nightmare for the rest of his life.
Walked to the Xianbei camp about the Xu land, where the Xianbei cavalry sentry dutifully lurked, while wondering why there were cattle in the middle of the night? While reporting to the camp at a rapid pace. But none of this is important in the eyes of the Xinghan army, it is too late.
The slightly trained ox *** staggered in two rows, the morning glory cut the rope that tied the cow, and then lit the oil-soaked oxtail successively, and when the cow began to run forward in pain, the archers behind added a lot of strength: shot an arrow at the fat cow's buttocks. In an instant, the frenzied cattle collectively entered the estrus period, and in the blindfolded situation, they only knew that they were running forward, and the direction of their wild gallop was the Xianbei camp.
At this time, the Xianbei camp, which was not aware of the approaching danger, was like an innocent and ignorant girl, in a state of no ability to resist, to meet the reckless actions of the most vicious people.
When the first fiery ox rushed into the camp of the Xianbei people, the nomads who had been accompanied by cattle, sheep and horses for generations were now in a great panic. The torn barracks behind the herd bear witness to its fragility under the brutal impact and the unstoppable nature of the manic herd. And the bull's eye, which could not see anything, was driven away by the shouts of the Xianbei people around it, and the alarm became more and more red, and it frantically shook the high tail of fire; Waving his stumbling hooves, he rolled forward even more lifelessly.
When a group of fire bulls rushed into the Xianbei camp that stretched for miles with a loud rumbling sound and a momentum that soared into the sky, the Xianbei warriors who were trying to stop the fire bulls from raging just now were instantly stunned. The pale face didn't even have time to recover a little bit of blood, and the slightly trembling body involuntarily turned and fled, and some of the two stunned people who were not too powerful, or the unlucky ones who were not very clever, were all picked up by the sharp knives that flashed cold light on the horns of the ox, or turned into a painful wail under the hooves of the ox......
In an instant, the Xianbei camp, which was originally built for both offense and defense, and was peaceful and silent in the dark night, turned into a frenzied human tragedy in less than a quarter of an hour. Cattle scurrying around, things scattered all over the ground, tents on fire, soldiers screaming and fleeing, and the wounded screaming miserably...... What a "messy" word to describe!
And Xu Chu commanded thousands of Red Tiger Iron Cavalry, and originally wanted to rush into the enemy camp with the crazy fire cattle herd, but seeing this situation, he couldn't help but look at each other, and after a while of fear, he pressed his heart that was about to move: It's not too late to wait for the fire cattle herd to be a little farther away before fighting, otherwise the cow hooves will not recognize you as a Xinghan army or a Xianbei person.
At the same time, the Xinghan Red Tiger Foot Soldiers who arrived at the appointed time suddenly opened the south gate of Yunzhong City, and under the suspicious gaze of the Xianbei cavalry sentry, a large number of heavily armed soldiers, wielding all kinds of weapons, led by Liao Hua, Chen Zhi and others, rushed to the Xianbei camp ...... that had become a pot of porridge.
At the head of the city in the clouds, Zhen Yu, who had been trained with the army, was accompanying Wang Bo, who was full of excitement, watching all this intently, and after seeing it, Zhen Yu flashed his eyes with endless admiration, and muttered to himself: "In ancient times, there was a coalition of Qi Hou Tian Dan Fire Ox Formation, Zhao Five Kingdoms, to protect the family and defend the country; Today, there is a Xinghan army and fire bulls attacking Xianbei for several miles at night! All soldiers are like the ears of gods! Yu coincided with this battle, and it was really a blessing for three lives! The general's battle will surely go down in history! β¦β¦β
The wolf smoke that had been wafting for most of the night, resounding for several hours, finally dispersed before dawn.
The tragic situation of the Xianbei camp at this moment was clearly presented in front of everyone: most of the tents had been set on fire, and where the fire oxen had wreaked havoc, there was hardly anything intact left. All kinds of humble men, lying in a mess for miles, some naked; There are those who wear only the upper half of the leather armor; There is a ...... that burns black and does not slip into autumn Scattered all over the place in strange shapes. The cattle and sheep of the army, who had been accustomed to being raised, were distributed in groups on the periphery, and they were screaming in some panic because they could not find their owners, and those who had not had time to escape from the fire simply became roasted whole sheep with bursts of meat fragrance.
Hundreds of paces outside the camp knelt more than 10,000 frightened, black-faced Xianbei soldiers, unkemptly armored and stared at by the archers on the periphery, and a little more aggressive action ushered in a burst of kicks. Kneeling next to him were a large number of Han slaves who were cowering and looking around blankly.
At this point, the tens of thousands of troops gathered again by Budugen disappeared, and the old guy slipped away quickly, but unfortunately the green wolf army that was good at long-distance attacks was not there, Xu Chu chased after him in a hurry for most of the day, and he was still stunned and fled. However, according to the estimation of various scouts: there are only more than 10,000 remnants of the defeated soldiers who have escaped, and this has to count the number of Budugen who gathered back the scattered rout.
The Xianbei people in the clouds are no longer able to compete with the strength of the Xinghan army, right? Wang Bo, who had just woken up after a comfortable sleep, couldn't help but sigh after listening to the report with a happy face on his face.
Oh, yes! Since the establishment of Yunzhong City, the Guangxing Han army has been competing with the Xianbei people in Yunzhong, and nearly 30,000 prisoners were captured in the two battles of Yunuguan; 25,000 prisoners in the offensive and defensive battles in the clouds; Coupled with the nearly 20,000 people who attacked at night this time, more than 70,000 Xianbei people who were skilled in archery and horses, or died or entered the coolie battalion of the Xinghan army, could it be that the Xianbei people still have the youth to fight?
Isn't that right? Wang Bo made a rough calculation and asked: There shouldn't be so many Xianbei soldiers in the clouds, right? According to the statistics provided by the Department of Thorn History of Bingzhou, aren't there more than 100,000 Xianbei tribes entrenched in Yunzhong, Wuyuan and other places? This should also include the elderly, weak women and children, right? Besides, there should be tens of thousands of tribes in the Fuluo Han tribe near Beiyu and Wuquan, right?
After hearing this, Liao Hua pondered for a moment and said, "Lord! Xianbei cavalry must have the help of the Southern Huns, and when we go to investigate carefully, we will know the clues! β
Sure enough, after being identified by several Han slaves, among the dead enemy soldiers, many Huns were found, and even some Xiqiang people. Among the Xianbei people who were killed, wounded, and captured, there were many children who were younger. After checking it, the generals looked at each other and laughed for a while, and congratulated Wang Bo in unison: "The lord is worry-free!" The root of the step is at the end of the road! Hahaha......"
Wang Bo was also pleased: "Hmm! The foundation of my Xinghan has been completed, and the overall situation can be determined! β
Then he issued several orders in a row: the Green Wolf Army turned back to Yunzhong City and ceded the Fuluo Han Department to Lu Bujun; At the same time, the Red Tiger Cavalry was ordered to track down the Budugen who had fled eastward, and beware of contacting the Huns to sacrifice their lives to counterattack; Let Yang Feng of Xinghan City organize a group of reserve troops to rush over, ready to fully accept Yunzhong and so on.
Two days later, when Wang Bo and others were studying how to use this vast former land to build the granary of the Xinghan army, Niu Er led a few Huns into the big tent, which turned out to be a messenger sent by the Southern Xiongnu Shan Yuqiangqu.
When Wang Bo heard that the envoy of the Qiangqu faction sent the general of the Qiangqu to occupy Shanan and Jiling, he couldn't help but widen his eyes and was about to attack, but the Xiongnu messenger saw that it was not good, and hurriedly knelt down and explained.
It turned out that Qiangqu heard that the Xinghan army was in the clouds, and also specially selected 30,000 elite people to help, and when passing by Shanan, he found that the Xianbei troops in Shanan and Jiling counties were empty, so he took the opportunity to occupy them. After detaining all the old and weak women and children, when they were about to go north, they received the recovery of Cloud City; Budugen was defeated and seriously injured and fled westward, so he quickly sent an envoy to see Wang Bo and asked Wang Bo to send troops to receive Shanan, Jiling and other places, and then sent the Marquis of Xubu Gu to lead his troops to Yunzhong City, and listened to the dispatch of General Xinghan.
After hearing this, Wang Bo eased his gloomy face and scolded secretly: Haven't you seen that you have already laid down Budugen'er? Immediately laughed and said: "Qiangqu Dadan Yu is really a brother and ally of Wuxinghan, and he went north to help without receiving the help of Wuxinghan's army, and the general is grateful!" Now repair a book, you bring to the Qiangqu Da Shan Yu, Yan Ben General to do everything is done, and the big single will be in the alliance, in order to show brotherhood, I hope that the Xing Han Army will join hands with the Xiongnu Department to repair forever! β
"The villain is a big order, and General Yu Wan Xie is affectionate! The villain must not miss a word! After speaking, Shi Li retreated and returned to the land of the Huns.
After sending away the Xiongnu envoys, Wang Bo asked Liao Hua and the others: "Our army has now occupied most of Yunzhong, but what should Lu Bu's army do?" β
Liao Hua pondered for a moment and said: "Lu Bu is helping with the order of Ding Assassin Shi, and it is also justified, our army should ignore it for the time being, you might as well wait and see what happens, and avoid conflict with it." Thinking that the steps of fleeing west to Xianyang have been weakened, our army must beat the water dogs and quickly send troops to attack them! Lord, please watch it! β
After speaking, he took out a geographical map of the Yunzhong and Wuyuan regions and pointed it out to Wang Bo: "If the Wuxing Han army occupies Xianyang, it can rely on the natural danger of the Yellow River in the south and the ancient wall of the remaining veins of Yinshan Mountain in the north. In this way, it can hold the passage of Xiqiang and other Hudong into the clouds, and it is extremely good to defend, even if it is wartime with the Southern Xiongnu, it can also be defended by the river! This is the gateway to the central and western regions of the cloud, and it must be relied upon! β
Wang Bo nodded and said, "What Yuan Jian said is very good! When the 30,000 Huns arrive, the army will march west to Xianyang to ensure long-term peace and stability in the Han Dynasty! β
Before the Xinghan army was ready to march into Xianyang, the two waves of messengers that followed made Wang Bo overjoyed, but at the same time, he was surprised that happiness came so suddenly.
The first wave was sent by Lu Bu. The leader of the team is a heroic white-faced young general, Wang Bo immediately saw it, his eyes lit up, so enthusiastic, let the general be very flattered. Who knew that after announcing his name, Wang Bo's smile suddenly froze in one place: Why did such a handsome guy call Hao Meng such a name? Ay! Then he listened to Lu Bu's message conveyed by Hao Meng expressionlessly, and finally squeezed a smile, and asked him to convey his hope to meet Lu Bu, and sent Hao Meng, who was puzzled, on the road with a lack of interest.
LΓΌ Bu had already led his army to occupy Wuquan, Beiyu and other places in Yunzhong, and completed the set strategic goals. Maybe Ding Yuan had strict orders when he was leaving, or he was afraid of causing a conflict between the two armies. After hearing that the Xinghan army had captured Yunzhong City, he sent Hao Meng to inform Wang Bo that he would quickly send someone to take over the above-mentioned counties, and said that the state army would return to Yanmen Pass in a few days.
As for the Xianbei Fuluo Han Division, without waiting for Lu Bu to make a big move, seeing that the situation was not good, he gave full play to the nomads' innate ability to fight if they could fight and run away if they couldn't, and escaped into the vast prairie overnight.
The latter wave of people turned out to be sent by the remnants of Xianbei who fled west to Xianyang, and the people who came handed over the request to surrender in an extremely humble manner.
Wang Bo, who was slightly stunned, learned that the old man Budugen was seriously injured in the clouds, and in addition to the defeat, he saw that the tribe had suffered all the casualties, and he vomited blood and died in shame and anger. When he was dying, he grabbed the general Daihua Wolf Mud, who was now presiding over the endgame, and told him that if he had nothing to do, he could lead the clan to join his brother to help Luo Han or surrender to the Xinghan army, in short, he couldn't go to Kebineng, who had torn Xianbei apart......
Daihua Wolf Ni discussed with the tribal leader who escaped death for three days and three nights, and finally decided to lead the people to surrender to Xinghan City, never betray it in his lifetime, and beg the Xinghan army to give him a good land, leaving the Xianbei beings under his command to live. And in the end, if Wang Bo was merciful and kind to his people, he was willing to hand over all the war horses, disband the soldiers, and so on.
Wang Bo was overjoyed to find the generals to discuss these two things, everyone was also very happy when they heard the news, putting aside the past solemn and respectful in front of their own lord, the stars hugged Wang Bo like the moon and frolicked, he didn't feel that he had fallen to the ground, his eyes flashed with reverence to the depths of his heart, and he shouted in his mouth: "The lord descended from the sky, and my brother will finally have a place to settle down!" "I was reluctant to get up for a long time, and some even had hazy eyes with excitement.
Seeing this situation, Wang Bo couldn't help but have a sour nose: the aspirations of ordinary people in this era are actually very simple, as simple as long as they can have a place to live. I closed my eyes and took a breath, and secretly swore in my heart: I suddenly came to this troubled world, and it is impossible to return to see this situation, since this is the case, I must protect this group of brothers who depend on each other for life and death! Whoever destroys it can't do it! How is Cao Cao? What about Liu Guanzhang?
Patronizing and everyone were happy, it wasn't until the scattered generals turned Cloudsdale into a sea of cheers that Wang Bo remembered what was going on. I had to scratch my head and find Liao Hua, Chen Dao, Zhen Yu and others, but they were obviously a little absent-minded, and after a brief discussion, they decided to send the more stable Liao Hua to lead the Red Tiger Army with a combination of 5,000 infantry and cavalry, to change the defense of Beiyu and Lu Bu's army, and ordered Wujin County to send some reserve troops to assist in the defense, and be sure to block the Saiwai Hu clan from the clouds.
Regarding Xianyang's Xianbei envoy, Wang Bo did not deliberately make things difficult, and replied to Dai Hu A Wolf Mud: You and the others have the heart to return to obedience, and the Xinghan army is not a murderous person, and after a few days, they will go to discuss Yunyun in person. Then send the green wolf army that rushed back to monitor first.
After the simple arrangement, Wang Bo let out a long sigh of relief, with an irrepressible smile on his face, and slept for the first time since Nishiidemo-gun. I didn't sleep until the second day when I opened my eyes refreshed, and saw Zhen Yu staying in the big tent with a smile, waiting for Wang Bo to wake up, as if he had something to say.
Scratching his head and getting up, after washing up a little, he talked with Zhen Yu while eating.
Zhen Yu froze, looked at Wang Bo's expression, and said cautiously: "At the beginning of today's clouds, it should be the top priority to appease the Hu people and specialize in production, the counties have not yet sent people to garrison, and the Wuxing Han army has many brave generals, but the capable officials who govern the place seem to be..., after all, the conquest side is very different from the shepherd side!" I wonder what the general is going to do? β
Wang Bo immediately stopped eating when he heard this, pushed away the food chips and other things in front of him, wiped his mouth and smiled bitterly: "Hey! The Wuxing Han army is full of martial artists, and there is a shortage of people who are familiar with the people's livelihood and governance.
