Chapter 212: The Great Wall is occupied by the Xiongnu
"It's about to go on the expedition, you all come with me." Yuan Xi waved his hand and flew towards the north by the four disagreements.
All the giant beasts followed behind Yuan Xi.
...........................
...........................
At this time, on a plain within the Great Wall, 60,000 iron horsemen of the northern and southern Xiongnu were stationed. Outside the Great Wall, near the north side of Yanmen Pass, 20,000 troops of Gao Gan were stationed.
The Xiongnu and Yuan Shang's troops echoed each other from afar, and there was a great tendency to march into Youzhou.
But somehow, after occupying a section of the Great Wall, there was no further action. Gao Gan went to the camp of the Xiongnu alone and met the leaders of the Xiongnu.
In the tent.
The Southern Xiongnu Right Xianwang went to Bei, the Northern Xiongnu Shan Yu Huchuquan, and more than a dozen Xiongnu generals sat together.
Gao Gan walked in and saluted one by one: "Meet the King of Nanyou Xian and Beidanyu." ”
"General Gao, please take a seat." The Right Virtuous King waved his hand.
"King Xie Xian."
In front of the Huns, the senior cadres did not dare to have the slightest disrespect. Maybe it's the disparity in strength. The Hun iron cavalry is too strong to be offended. Before setting out on the expedition, Yuan Shangqian instructed him to find a way to lure the Xiongnu to attack Youzhou and reach a military alliance with the Xiongnu.
And to do this, you have to have good relations with the Huns.
"According to the detailed investigation report we arranged in Youzhou, the governor of Youzhou was touched, and personally led 20,000 light cavalry to Dai County, and joined forces with Tian Yu and Tian Chou. They are clearly trying to regroup their forces and fight us for a decisive battle. Therefore, I think it is better to strike first and wipe out the tens of thousands of troops of Tian Yu and Tian Chou. "The right virtuous king of the Southern Xiongnu went to humble and said.
"Uncle is inappropriate." The Northern Xiongnu Shan Yu Hu Chuquan said: "We have already won the Great Wall, if we advance further, we will enter Youzhou.... ”
"What about entering Youzhou?" The arrogant look on his humble face: "My main purpose of going south this time is to plunder Youzhou. Get a lot of money and food, otherwise why would I use tens of thousands of iron horsemen? ”
"But we're alone now!" Hu Chuquan said: "We should wait for Xianbei's two armies and Yuan Shang's army to attack Yuan Xi before we make a move, and we will definitely win at that time." ”
Hu Chuquan's words won the approval of everyone.
Gao Gan, who had just taken a seat, also bowed his hand slightly, and said, "What Shan Yu said is very true. Yuan Xi had just exterminated the Black Mountain Army and had to surrender 180,000. His strength is much stronger than before. If you go deep alone, I'm afraid you don't have much chance of winning. Don't forget that the Eastern Xianbei and Tuoba Xianbei at the beginning, and the hundreds of thousands of iron horsemen before and after, weren't they also wiped out by Yuan Xi? ”
"This..."
Speaking of Eastern Xianbei and Tuoba Xianbei, there is no temper to go to humility.
For a long time, the Xiongnu and Xianbei fought and never picked up any cheapness. Those hundreds of thousands of Xianbei Iron Cavalry did indeed have extremely strong combat effectiveness, but they did not expect to be wiped out by Yuan Xi.
It can be seen that Yuan Xi's strength is stronger than Xianbei!
"Ahem..."
Qubei's face was a little embarrassed, he coughed lightly a few times, and said, "In this case, how are you going to march?" ”
"I have to ask General Gao Gan..." Hu Chuquan looked at Gao Gan.
"Ask me?"
"Yes, you are General Yuan's general, you should know when General Yuan will attack Jizhou. When the time comes, we will be able to win. Hu Chuquan said.
"So to speak..." Gao Gan was suddenly excited.
The task given to him by Yuan Shang was to find a way to make the Xiongnu obey the orders of the capital of the state, and when Yuan Xi attacked the state, the Xiongnu's soldiers and horses plundered Youzhou. He was still wondering how to speak.
I didn't expect Hu Chuquan to bring it up himself.
Gao Gan arched his hand and said, "Don't worry, General Yuan will soon start a war with Yuan Xi." At that time, it will definitely be able to contain most of Yuan Xi's soldiers and horses. You Huns take the opportunity to go south, and there will be no one to stop you. ”
"Hahaha... Well said. Qubei picked up the wine bottle and said, "Come, let's drink a bottle together." ”
"Drink..."
The generals in the tent all raised their wine bottles.
Drink it all.
I drank the mare's milk wine of the Huns, which had a slight smell.
Gao Gan almost vomited, but he held back.
"I wonder if you've ever drunk Qiong Jelly and Jade Liquor?" Gao Gan asked.
"Qiong Jelly Jade Liquor? What kind of wine is that? "I've never even heard of it.
Hu Chuquan said: "There have been merchants who have come to our Northern Xiongnu to sell, it is a kind of spirit, as long as you drink a small bottle, you can get drunk. And it's very refreshing, and it's enjoyable to drink. ”
"That's right."
Gao Gan smiled slightly: "There are many agar jade liquor in Jiyou and Youzhou, and there are also wineries. If we can occupy these two states, then we can enjoy them to our heart's content. It's not that I'm disrespectful to the Huns, the elixir jade liquor is indeed better than mare's milk wine. I don't believe you'll try it then. ”
Qubei and Hu Chuquan were not angry because of Gao Gan's words, but became interested in Qiong Jelly and Jade Liquor.
Qubei couldn't wait to say: "Then you urge General Yuan to attack Jizhou as soon as possible." ”
"King Youxian doesn't need to be in a hurry. It's a matter of time. Besides, with our strength alone, it is still a little difficult to deal with Yuan Xi. The lord has ordered people to go to the eastern Xianbei and Tuoba Xianbei to unite them. When the four of us raise troops, how can Yuan Xi be undefeated? ”
Gao Gan said.
The Xiongnu and Xianbei had just fought, and there were still many mustards.
Hearing Gao Gan say that he wanted to unite Xianbei, he was a little unhappy with Qubei and Huchuquan.
Qubei said: "Without Xianbei, we can also win." ”
"Don't worry, King Youxian, I'm here just in case. Don't forget that Yuan Xi has a lot of giant beasts, which are not something that a war horse can deal with. Xianbei had fought with Yuan Xi many times, had rich combat experience, and with them, he would be sure to win. ”
"Okay."
Hu Chuquan said: "For the sake of victory, I am willing to unite with Xianbei again." ”
"Ugh...."
Qubei also nodded.
"That's right." Gao Gan smiled and said, "The four of us will unite and attack the north. Cao Cao and Yuan Tan united to attack the east, with a total of five or six hundred thousand soldiers and horses, and there was no doubt about victory! ”
Painted them a huge pie.
Qubei and Hu Chuquan also nodded secretly, this arrangement is indeed much safer.
But....
People are not as good as heaven!
Just after they had just decided, there was a detailed report: "Yuan Xi personally led the vanguard battalion and the wolf cavalry army, and they have left Yecheng and come to the dynasty. There were also many behemoths with him. ”
"Good time!" He clenched his fists.
Hu Chuquan and Gao Gan, but they looked at each other.
"Looking at this posture, Yuan Xi wants a decisive battle." Gao Gan said: "I have to tell the lord the news immediately, and the lord will decide." He got up and clenched his fists and said, "I'll quit first..." ”
"General Gao, why are you in a hurry to leave. Let's discuss it again, with our 90,000 paces, we will definitely not be weaker than Yuan Xi. "Go and humble yourself and stand up to stop it.
Gao Gan frowned slightly and said, "Don't worry, King Youxian. At the end, I will go back to Taiyuan first. I'll give you an answer in a few days. Until then, please do not engage Yuan Xi at war. ”
With that, he left the tent.
Qubei discussed with Hu Chuquan for a long time, but finally didn't dare to act alone.
