Chapter 096: Pacifying Xianbei and Fighting the Grassland (3)
Zhao Xu and other more than 300,000 troops marched north and left Shanggu in a mighty way, and the Xianbei people naturally couldn't avoid discovering it.
Xiu Wu Lu immediately made a decision, so that the original arrangement in the south of the 30,000 army delayed time, about half of these 30,000 troops are Su Li remainder, has long been dissatisfied with Xiu Wu Lu's order, at this time the Han army of 300,000 north, these Su Li Yu knew that Xiu Wu Lu was to send them to death, immediately decided, immediately rebelled, and sent people to contact Zhao Xu and others overnight.
Zhao Xu, Cao Cao, Ma Teng and others are naturally not afraid of him, and the army of more than 300,000 on his side is still afraid that he will not succeed. I replied that night.
Needless to say, in the early morning of the next day, the rest of the Xiuwulu army rebelled before they were ready, and joined forces with Zhao Xu and other brigades, and was surrounded by 50,000 Hun cavalry and more than 200,000 allied troops in an instant.
The result of the battle was naturally no suspense, under the attack of more than 200,000 iron cavalry and tens of thousands of elite infantry, the more than 10,000 Xianbei cavalry were attacked inside and outside, and they collapsed in an instant, and Dugu Tuo, the leading general of the Xiuwu Luqin faction, was also beheaded by Zhao Yunchong.
After the battle, Zhao Xu asked the Xianbei people who died in the battle to be buried on the spot, and let Yu Ban collect the troops, and then led the army to continue north. That night, everyone gathered together to discuss the next step.
Zhao Xu spoke first: "Now we have a small victory, just take advantage of the victory to pursue, tomorrow General Hu Chuquan will lead 30,000 Hun cavalry to the north with me, and I will be the vanguard!" ”
As soon as Zhao Xu said this, everyone was startled, and Cao Cao's eyes closed slightly. Guan Yu frowned slightly and said: "Boxiong, you are one of the coaches, how can you attack easily, if there is a mistake, how can we explain to the eldest brother when we go back?" ”
Zhuge Liang also said: "General Zhao Xu, this plan is indeed too risky. ”
Zhao Yun said: "As the commander-in-chief, my brother really can't be easily dispatched, so let Zilong be the pioneer on his behalf." ”
"Huh! Needless to say, tomorrow Zilong, Dian Wei, and Uncle Zhi will go with me, and then bring 20,000 troops, plus 30,000 Hun cavalry, foolproof, and this time is just to lure the enemy, we will fight and go, you are ready to ambush, as soon as we disperse them, you will take them in one fell swoop, you can rest assured. Zhao Xu said nonchalantly.
Zhang Feidang even got up and shouted: "Even if you want to go Boxiong, why don't you take me there!" What the reason. That being the case, I should be a pioneer! ”
Zhao Xu saw that Zhang Fei's old mistake had been made again, and hurriedly patted Zhang Fei on the shoulder, asked him to sit down, and said with a smile: "Yide, you think too much, I don't let you be a pioneer, I don't let you go; It's my fault that I ignored you for a while, and even so, let's go together, and you be the pioneer! ”
Zhang Fei smiled and said, "It's still Boxiong, you are righteous!" When he quieted down, Zhao Xu wiped his sweat and sighed.
Everyone in Liu Bei's camp felt a headache, but they all knew Zhao Xu's strength and temper, although they believed that Zhao Xu would return intact, but they all felt that it was inappropriate, and they knew that they couldn't persuade Zhao Xu, and they were helpless.
At this time, Cao Cao's eyes opened, and the essence was released, and he said: "Indeed, although Boxiong is brave, after all, it is slightly inappropriate to go alone. It's better to let Brother Shoucheng go with you. Cao Cao said, looking at Ma Teng.
Ma Teng stood up and said, "If General Zhao Xu insists on going, then he is willing to go with General Zhao Xu!" ”
"It would be great if you were too willing to go with you." Zhao Xu said with a smile.
Ma Teng also smiled and said, "Where is it, resisting foreigners is a matter of duty, and in the military camp, there is no need to see outside." ”
A day later, Zhao Xu and Ma Teng set out, and two days later, the army reached a place only 600 miles away from Xiuwulu's army.
At this moment, Xiu Wulu, who was paying close attention to the movements of the Han army, was also very nervous, although he knew that Zhao Xu's lone army was deep, but he was still afraid of an ambush, and there was only less than a hundred miles between Zhao Xu and the Han army, and Xiu Wulu did not dare to dispatch easily.
"General Zhao, you dare to go deep alone, your courage is commendable! It's just that I don't understand, what do you rely on for such courage? When the army was resting, Ma Teng asked Zhao Xudao.
Zhao Xu smiled and said, "It's very simple, just because the enemy doesn't know how powerful I am!" ”
The two looked at each other and laughed.
Not far from here, Ma Yunlu, Ma Chao's favorite sister, was sitting on the stone at the moment, staring blankly at the busy scene in the military camp in front of him.
"Sister, what are you doing here?" Ma supernaturally sat next to Ma Yunlu and asked.
"Ahh Third brother, you smell of sweat! Smells bad! Ma Yunlu covered his nose and shouted with disgust.
Ma Chao sniffed and said dissatisfiedly: "Where is it, brother, I just had a fight with that Feibi, and I'm tired, you don't help me beat my back as a sister, I usually hurt you in vain." ”
Ma Yunlu smiled: "Okay, third brother, Yunlu is busy with your back, come and sit down." ”
Ma Chao sat down in front of Ma Yunlu and said, "Then again, sister, what were you looking at just now?" Ma Yunlu's cheeks turned red as soon as he slammed it, and he didn't help Ma Chao beat his back, so he pushed Ma Chao and bowed his head and said nothing. Ma Chao was a little puzzled, and looked ahead, but saw Zhao Yun talking to a soldier in front.
Ma Chao was puzzled: "Sister, what are you looking at Zhao Yun for?" ”
The air suddenly quieted down, and after a long time, Ma Yunlu replied: "Third brother, what kind of person do you think Zhao Yun is, don't get me wrong!" I just heard that he fought in Bowangpo and bravely saved his brother, and I was curious for a while. ”
Ma Chao looked at Ma Yunlu for a while, comprehended, and said with a smile: "Sister, don't you have a crush on him!" ”
Ma Yunlu suddenly blushed and his heart jumped, pushed Ma Chao, and shouted: "I hate it, who laughed with you and told you seriously!" ”
Ma Chao smiled, waved his hand, and said, "Okay, don't be angry, don't laugh with you." To say that this Zhao Yun and Zhao Zilong are indeed a character, this person is strong in martial arts, mature and steady, both civil and military, and his brother Zhao Xu has a fight, loyalty and righteousness, love and righteousness, he is a good man, I also admire him. ”
After Ma Chao finished speaking, Ma Yunlu looked at Zhao Yun blankly, unconsciously stunned, at the age when she was in love, she was fantasizing about the age of having a hero in her heart; Since ancient times, beauties love heroes, and in Ma Yunlu's heart, there are only a few people who can be called manly husbands, such as Ma Chao; But since hearing the deeds of Zhao Xu, Zhao Yun and others, she began to have a new understanding of the world, and she began to want to be like Zhao Xue and get Ruyi Langjun, the hero of the world in her heart. And Zhao Yun is very in line with the image of Ma Yunlu's fantasy, although Zhao Xu is similar to Zhao Yun, but Zhao Xu is already married, Ma Yunlu naturally does not have illusions, but is more interested in Zhao Xu's younger brother Zhao Yun.
Although polygamy is now possible, many women still hope that their husbands will only love her, otherwise where will there be so many bloodshed in the palace for the sake of favor.
Ma Yunlu looked at Zhao Yun blankly for a long time, until Zhao Yun left, he couldn't help laughing, looked up at the sky, and smiled very sweetly.
……
"Lord Shan Yu, I just received news that the 100,000 army that was the vanguard seems to be greedy for merit, and now it has opened a distance of more than two hundred miles from their main force, and now it is only more than four hundred miles away from us." Tuoba Gu said excitedly to Xiu Wulu.
This is simply great news for Xiu Wulu. Now that this army has been more than 200 miles away from the rest of the Han army, this great news is definitely a wonderful opportunity for Xiuwulu and a group of Xianbei generals, if they can annihilate this 100,000 army, then they may be able to reverse the current situation.
Xiuwu Lu Xing asked excitedly: "Do you know who the leader is?" ”
Tuoba was stunned and said, "Uh...... I don't know that. ”
When cultivating Wu Luden, it was like being poured a basin of cold water, from head to toe. said: "Ridiculous, the Han people are very good at using a certain and scheming, we don't even know who the enemy's main general is, how can we attack rashly." ”
Tuoba Gu was speechless for a moment, and when he was embarrassed, Dugu Lixiong broke into the tent and shouted: "Shan Yu, good news." ”
"Oh! Tell me about it. ”
Dugu Lixiong said excitedly: "I just learned the news, and the leader of the Han vanguard is that Zhao Xu. ”
"What!" Xiu Wulu exclaimed, "Is this true? ”
"It's true, the young general is still afraid of a mistake, so he went to see it in person, and there is no doubt that it is Zhao Xu."
"What a Zhao Xu, there is no one in his eyes, and now he dares to go deep into the army alone to send him to death. The road is narrow! Xiu Wulu clenched his fists, slammed his fist on the table, and said angrily: "Zhao Xu, you are looking for death by yourself, hum!" ……”
Dugu Lixiong saw that Xiu Wulu was full of fighting spirit, and his eyes were about to spurt blood, so he immediately asked for his life and shouted: "Lord Shan Yu, I am willing to be the pioneer and sacrifice Zhao Xu's head." ”
"Good! I'll give you 100,000 cavalry, attack now, give me a head-on blow, you must destroy Zhao Xu, let the Han people know how powerful we are, Zhao Xu is brave, even if you can't kill him, you have to entangle him firmly for me, and you can't let Zhao Xu run away. Xiu Wulu's eyes were full of hatred and anger, and he commanded in a deep voice.
"Whoa! The youngster will definitely live up to the expectations. Dugu Lixiong received the order excitedly, and even withdrew from the big tent.
"The rest of the generals will follow me, and the whole army will attack, and deal with Zhao Xu, you must not be careless, and you must annihilate them before the Han reinforcements arrive." Xiu Wulu shouted.
"Yes!"
A total of nearly 300,000 main forces of the Xianbei people and the Qiang people poured out, Dugu Lixiong led 100,000 cavalry first, and Xiuwu Lu personally led an army of nearly 200,000 to follow.
