Chapter Twenty-Six: How to Return the Huns Before They Were Destroyed
The Acropolis is very lively, all families are happy, spontaneously organize to go to the streets, very simple and simple dry food, while thanking the hands of the non-stop hair coarse dough cake, some soldiers don't want it, by the Acropolis people directly and toughly stuffed into their arms, the coarse dough cake is not only not delicious, but also tastes like chewing wax, very dry.
Although this is the case, all the soldiers are happy to eat in their mouths, they can live on the battlefield, and they can eat hot food, and they are glad and mourning in their hearts.
At this moment, in the Acropolis Mansion, many Wanding military captains are discussing the next defensive strategy.
Jiang Wanjiang sat paralyzed on the main seat, he had just come down from the city tower, and he was repeatedly sure that the Huns had retreated.
The tight strings of nearly half a month have also relaxed, and the strength to move the body is gone, and the two wounded doctors are treating the wounds on Jiang Wujiang's body, and the scars on the bones are shocking.
Jiang Wujiang endured the pain and bared his teeth, listening to Wan Yingyi, the Wan Ding Army in front of him, saying suggestions.
"Your Highness, the northern forces of the Wuguo are in an emergency, and I will go to Guancheng to garrison next, this..."Wan Yingyi was embarrassed, and added: "Your Highness, I am not saying this to complain, and it is recommended that the northern defense line be closed to the Huguan fortress north of the Great Wall."
The 50,000 soldiers of the Acropolis, all of whom were killed in a slight position, and even the logistics quartermaster Sima had already died in the defense of the city with a weapon.
Jiang Wujiang pursed his lips, but he couldn't say the words that came to his lips anyway, although Wu Guo held and won this time, he really suffered heavy casualties.
If you don't shrink the battle line, find a place to defend the fortified fortress, and wait until the Xiongnu realize it, I am afraid that they will turn back to the south.
If it weren't for the 20,000 cavalry of the Wanding Army who left their infantry baggage and arrived in advance, I am afraid that they would have died heroically.
Wan Yingyi looked at His Royal Highness the Crown Prince silently, and did not dare to say more.
Wuguo Wanjia, control the country's soldiers and horses, let the Manchu Dynasty civil officials deeply shelved, every time the court meeting said that the Wanjia family has a heart of disobedience, Wan Qicang felt powerless, too lazy to explain to a group of sour and rotten Xiucai, Jiang Heshan is a peacemaker in the middle, persuade this, appease the martial arts.
This time, Wuding Pass was included in the territory of Wuguo, such a great merit, it was inevitable to provoke the wind blowing in the ears of the emperor, after all, people's hearts are separated from their stomachs, who will know what the emperor and the old man really want to write in his heart.
Jiang Wujiang beckoned, signaled to help himself up, and the guards on both sides were quick to help, helping His Highness to slowly walk to the middle sand table.
Holding on to the edge of the sand table, he staggered around and observed.
Wan Yingyi also stood up, hurriedly walked to the side and stood quietly, silently paying attention.
Regardless of whether the east Qiguo fights or not, he will eventually have to go to the city to fortify, and for the Wu State, the entire west, and even the entire northwest territory of the Wu State are thousands of miles away from the army.
The commanders in the army also stood up one after another, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince did not sit, even if he was tired from a long run, who would dare to sit.
Jiang Wujiang glanced at the generals, fanned his hand to indicate that it was okay, and sat back in his place, adjusting his state, and would leave the acropolis at any time.
Wan Yingyi looked at Jiang Wujiang who was frowning, His Royal Highness was reluctant to decide, I am afraid that he would worry about the people of the Acropolis, or not, His Royal Highness may be a Ming Jun in the future, and he will be the helmsman of the Wanjia family sooner or later, and it is inevitable that he will not deal with the people in front of him in the future, and he will leave a good impression on the people.
"Your Highness, the last general will allocate 10,000 cavalry and 10,000 infantry from the Wanding Army to stay" Wan Yingyi was full of sincerity.
As for the real intentions or false intentions, I am afraid that only Wan Yingyi himself knows, and in the same year of the crown, he naturally has the arrogance he should have.
If it weren't for the Emperor of Wuguo, Jiang Heshan and Wan Qicang have been friends for many years since childhood, and they have a deep relationship, and they know what each other wants most in their hearts, if it weren't for this, I'm afraid they would have done it to Wan Jia a long time ago.
Any reigning emperor is always afraid of rebellion, and it is impossible to trust unconditionally with a big heart, unless this Ninety-Five Emperor is an iron man.
I saw and understood this truth in my father Wan Qicang.
Wan Yingyi heard Jiang Wujiang's question, pulled back his thoughts, and looked at the latter.
"I remember that the Huns liked to carry their families to act"
"Yes, Your Highness, the Huns always drag their families to their activities, I really don't understand," Wan Yingyi replied seriously
Jiang Wujiang had a flash of thought, and for a moment, he suddenly couldn't grasp the key point, and he sat back in the first place with some decadence, closing his eyes and recuperating, he was really tired.
When Wan Yingyi heard His Royal Highness say this, he was also from a century-old martial artist, and when he smelled a hint of strategy, he also began to scrutinize it carefully.
When the two of them were in deep thought, two small soldiers passed by at the gate of the mansion, and a few words of conversation attracted Jiang Wujiang's attention.
"Why does the Huns' camp stink so much?"
"It's normal to stink, a bunch of barbarians who can't understand the language"
"But doesn't that smell of?"
"What? Have you ever smelled it? ”
A few people in the team laughed and leaned back.
"What a system to make a noise in Fukou!!" The commander of the Wanding Army snorted
Hearing this, everyone in the team hurried and fled in a panic.
Jiang Wujiang didn't care, but after thinking about it carefully, he slapped the long table and shouted, "Stop them"
The commanders were stunned and hurriedly rushed out two or three to find someone.
The Wu team hadn't gone far, trembling, and thought that it had disturbed His Highness to rest.
Jiang Wujiang watched the commander kicking the Wu team, punching and kicking, and hurriedly shouted, "Stop!" Who told you to beat and scold the soldiers!! ”
"Go down and get the fifteenth army stick yourself, and then next time I pick your clothes" Jiang Wujiang shouted angrily: "Don't go quickly, you want me to carry you there"
The commander of the Wan Ding Army glanced at the young marshal Wan Yingyi behind him, who signaled to wink, lowered his head and led away.
Jiang Wujiang naturally saw it in his eyes, the commander turned his back without saluting, it's just that now is not the time for disunity.
Retracted his eyes and looked at the five people in front of him who were kneeling on one knee, still looking at themselves nervously.
Jiang Wujiang said gently: "Don't be afraid, I just heard you talking and want to ask you some questions."
"Please show His Royal Highness the Prince, the little soldier knows everything," Wu Chang was obviously more clever, and hurriedly replied
"You just went to the Hun camp?" Jiang Wujiang nodded with satisfaction and asked
Wu Chang was in a cold sweat, afraid of a misunderstanding, and hurriedly explained: "Shi Chang ordered me to go and investigate and patrol to see if there are any clues, but it was too dark, my eyesight was limited, and I only smelled a smoky smell."
Jiang Wujiang grasped the key point and asked anxiously, "What kind of smell is it?" ”
Wu Chang couldn't speak, his eyes motioned for Wang San'er to answer, Jiang Wujiang saw it clearly, looked at the person with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks behind Wu Chang, and didn't urge, and asked softly: "Brother Wang, what do you smell?" ”
Wang San'er was flattered and timid, spoke intermittently, stuttered a little, and replied, "Yes... It's the smell of livestock, and that kind of smell is very good, I smelled it when I was a child, we remembered, it was a bit like a two-horned beast."
When Jiang Wujiang heard this, he hurriedly carved it on the bamboo slips, the shape was just similar, the details were not important, and he hurriedly handed it to Wang San after the carving.
Wang San stuttered in surprise when he saw it, and pointed and said, "That's it... This"
In an instant, Jiang Wujiang seemed to see the Huns dragging a long line, clustering and driving the sheep, all the way to the north of the Heavenly Wolf Mountain, why go to the Heavenly Wolf Mountain, because there is a Heavenly Lake there, the lake is as big as half of the Wuguo, and the grassland is fat, and the plain can be relaxed.
Jiang Wujiang waved back the five people, walked to the sand table excitedly, and asked Wan Yingyi, "How long has it been since the Huns retreated?" ”
Wan Yingyi counted the hours and said, "There should be three hours."
"Where did you retreat? Where is the estimate now? ”
Wan Yingyi looked at the sand table, calculated the distance, and pointed to two hundred miles northwest of the Acropolis, where there happened to be a small natural body of water.
Jiang Wujiang raised his smile and smiled, God help me! The Huns will make you pay for your blood debt this time!!!
