Chapter 44

Fu Zhu looked at the map again and continued to ask: "Then what about the strength of the Xianbei people and the combat strength of the Xianbei tribes?" Can the general find out? "It's not a problem, because we have experts who know the intelligence of the various tribes in the grassland, Jin Riyan, you can explain it to Lord Fuzhi."

When the cavalry brigade commander Jin Riyan heard Lu Bu mention himself, he nodded, got up and came to the big map, used a wooden stick as a whip, and pointed to the map to explain. "Although the Xianbei people have convened the ten major tribes in this convocation order, except for the three major tribes in the central Xianbei that are very strong, the strength of the other seven tribes is similar, and they are all small tribes, and I am afraid that they are not as good as the previous Northern Xiongnu Right Xianwang Department."

"Among them, the western Xianbei needs to be on guard against the Northern Huns at all times, and the several tribes in the eastern Xianbei also need to beware of the Wuhuan and the Fuyu, and they definitely don't dare to do their best, I have estimated that these seven tribes, the most can send 10,000 people, and the few may only send 5,000 people. Although Kebi Nengbu and Kuitou are powerful, they have coveted the throne of Helian's big boss for a long time. ”

Jin Riyan paused, calculated, and then said: "Their two major tribes will definitely not use their full strength, I'm afraid each tribe can send 4-50,000 people." He Lian is the big leader, and he is the initiator of this summoning order, and his 80,000 royal court guards are afraid that they will dispatch about 60,000 people, so that the total strength of the Xianbei people should be between 180,000 and 220,000, and they can't work together at all. It is not too much to say that it is a plate of scattered sand, they all have their own small abacus, although there are many troops, they cannot form a joint force, and our army should have the strength to fight. With that, Kim put down the stick and returned to his seat.

After listening attentively to Jin Riyan's introduction, he thought for a moment, and then said to Lu Bu with a smile: "General Jin really knows the Xianbei people very well, the explanation is very detailed, and their disadvantages are also analyzed very thoroughly. ”

Lu Bu was surprised, this frustration was really amazing, and he didn't know if he really had a way, or if he was just talking, after all, he had only seen his skills in books before, and he had never dealt with him in this era. "Mr. Gonghe, let's talk quickly, and I'm so relieved." Jia Xu saw Lu Bu's thoughts and hurriedly asked for him.

Frustrated Professor looked at Jia Xu, "Mr. Wenhe is talented, he must have discussed with the general for a long time, how dare he get an axe." "Lu Bu knows that the literati and strategists of this era are sometimes so hypocritical, obviously they want to tell you, but they pretend to be reserved.

"Mr. Gonghe, don't be modest, although I have discussed countermeasures with the military advisor, maybe Mr. has a better idea, don't hide your secrets, talk about it quickly." At the end, Lu Bu deliberately used a joking tone.

Frustrated to satisfy his vanity, he gave Lu Bu a salute, and then he spoke unhurriedly. "The general doesn't have to worry, although the Xianbei people have a large number of troops, several times that of me, but their hearts are not aligned, and it is suitable for divide and conquer, and each one will be defeated."

Lu Bu and Jia Xu glanced at each other, and they could see the appreciation in each other's eyes, and what Fu Zhu said was exactly the plan agreed upon by Jia Xu and Lu Bu. "Oh, please tell me in detail, how to divide and conquer, how to break each one?"

Speaking of which, Fu Zhu didn't want to hide his clumsiness, and told what he thought in his heart. "The main force of the Xianbei people is the three major tribes of the central Xianbei, and the three major tribes that are most affected by the disaster, the eastern and western Xianbei tribes are just coerced by them and forced by the situation, and they don't really want to start a war with me."

"You can send a person who can speak well, go quietly, explain the interests and disadvantages, bribe money, and secretly agree that when the two armies are fighting, they will fake a fight and perform a play for the three major tribes. They can both maintain their own strength and deal with the three major tribes. As long as the leaders of these seven tribes are not stupid, they will agree. ”

"As a result, the only real threat is the three major tribes of the central Xianbei, all of whom have been affected by the disaster and have to go south to raid. But they are all afraid of each other, the leader and Kebineng both want to get their hands on the throne of the big chief, and Lian Lian's talent is far inferior to the two of them, so they are naturally wary of the two of them every day. When the two armies are at war, we can fight them selectively, inflicting heavy losses on the company and lightly wounding the head of the Kui and the Kobineng, as long as the balance of strength between them is out of balance, and we see that we are not so easy to defeat, then there will be civil strife, and we will take the opportunity to send out the whole army, and we will surely win a great victory. ”

Lu Bu and Jia Xu applauded together, and Lu Bu praised: "Mr. is every word and every sentence, in such a short time, he can come up with such a good plan, Lu Bu admires." Wen He's previous countermeasures discussed with me basically coincide with what Mr. said, and it seems that the two of you are heroes and see the same thing. ”

"It's just that we feel that we can't kill all of them to deal with Helian, and it is most beneficial for us for Xianbei people to be the big leader. Kuitou and Ke Bineng are both ambitious people, especially the style of the Xianbei leader Tan Shi Huai, who has a lot of deceased in governing and fighting, so he must not be allowed to sit big. ”

After listening to this, Fu Zhu thought about it for a while, and nodded again and again, "The military advisor and the general have a deeper understanding of the Xianbei people than Fu Zhu, and they have studied these leaders even more deeply, so it is indeed more beneficial for us to keep Helian." ”

Lu Bu said with a smile: "I have already sent a message to Li Su to come back, and he is responsible for lobbying the Xianbei departments in the east and west, this guy has long been clamoring to fight with me, and he is about to suffocate to death if he stays in Luoyang." Now we still need to wait for the other two reinforcements, and we can only wait and see what happens for the time being, so let's first study the method of dealing with the Xianbei cavalry. ”

Several people gathered in front of the map to express their opinions, and Gao Shun's insights made Fu Zhu and Zhang He refreshed. Although Zhang He was young, he also had a lot of insights into the use of cavalry, and he even provided some brilliant ideas. Everyone chatted hotly, and they didn't realize that the fish belly was white outside the window.

Under the same sky, in the vast grassland beyond the Great Wall, the sun has not yet risen, and the blades of grass are hung with dewdrops. On the beacon tower, several soldiers had already gotten up early and were preparing breakfast. Suddenly, there was a rumbling sound in the distance, and the experienced veterans could at once hear the hoofs of horses running together with a large group of cavalry.

Several people were taken aback, and climbed up to the top of the battlements and the high platform of the beacon tower to take a closer look. I saw a dark cloud floating in the sky in the distance, and a large group of cavalry under black pressure appeared on the horizon, coming from the east. "Are the Xianbei people coming, I recently heard that the Xianbei people are going south?" A recruit said.

"Don't worry, take a look again, look carefully, if it's a Xianbei person, hurry up and light a beacon." Another older veteran said.

The cavalry group is getting closer and closer, there are about four or five thousand horsemen, the clothing is not uniform, it is really the dress of the steppe people, the recruit is about to go to light the fire, or the veteran stopped him, "Don't worry, see the flag clearly." Getting closer, a large crimson flag came into view, embroidered with a big "Chinese" character, which was very eye-catching.
