Chapter 423 Sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai with a big arrangement in mind

Just as Da Danyu was talking and discussing with many strategists, there was another change outside the account, and many heralds rushed in.

When Da Shan Yu saw these people, his eyelids jumped wildly, and the secret path was not good, guessing which pass had been hit.

Therefore, before he could wait for the heralds to speak, he was the first to ask: "What is going on?" At which pass has the enemy appeared? Who's calling for help? ”

When these heralds heard this, they looked confused and puzzled.

One of them said: "Your Majesty, according to the investigation, outside the border of Gansu, near the border with Inner Mongolia, we have found many enemy troops, all cavalry, with more than 50,000 people. Although they are under the banner of the Wei family, after investigation, they are not members of the Wei family, but another unknown force.

These people traveled hundreds of miles almost a day, and seemed to be in a hurry. And according to various circumstances, their destination is Yumen Pass, the rear of our army. ”

"What? And what's going on? Da Shan Yu was shocked: "When did you find out about this situation?" ”

"It was about ten days ago when they clashed with the local natives, and I didn't know about it until I found out."

The herald said: "After we found out about the situation, we came to report it non-stop. But their march was too fast, and they were all cavalry, and we couldn't get ahead of them. According to estimates, at this moment, they should have arrived near Yumen Pass. ”

"Bastard..."Da Shan Yu roared angrily, and suddenly understood everything, his face was distorted, and he was extremely angry.

After that, he stopped talking and sat silently in the middle of the field, waiting for many other high-ranking generals to come to discuss the matter. This is because he knows that no matter how angry he is, it will be useless, and it will be too late.

After waiting for more than four hours, the high-ranking generals and overseers of the countries who had led the troops out returned and came to the big tent.

As soon as they arrived at the big tent, they immediately inquired, and they didn't understand why Da Shan Yu suddenly ordered to stop the march and let himself come over to discuss things.

Da Shan Yu said with a pale face: "Generals, we have been tricked, we have been tricked." In the rear of our army, 100,000 troops are attacking Yumen Pass from the east and west.

According to intelligence, these people have been planning for a long time, marching thousands of miles, and are full of combat power. The reason why the defenders of Dingxi Pass went out of the pass this time was all to cover up people's eyes and ears, confuse us, and buy time and opportunity for the large army that appeared in our rear.

At present, our army has transferred troops and horses to various passes, and the defensive strength of the passes is extremely weak, and it is impossible to stop the attack of those large armies. Now that the situation is completely out of our control, what do you think? ”

As he spoke, he introduced some of the situation of the 100,000-strong army.

When many of the generals and overseers heard the news, they were in an uproar and became extremely nervous.

"These 100,000 troops are all under the banner of "king"? Could it be that Wang Mang? Prime Minister Loulan praised virtue and said: "We have received information before, saying that Wang Mang is very likely not to be in Dingxi Pass. Now it seems that if this is the case, he is indeed not in Dingxi Pass, but led the army thousands of miles to attack our rear. ”

"It should be." Da Shan Yu said: "There is no doubt that this matter is related to Wang Mang, and now I have gathered everyone here to ask everyone what their opinions are and how to deal with these changes." ”

The prisoner replied: "Your Majesty, at the moment the matter of our army has been decided, and it is useless for us to regret it. Therefore, I think that we should not do anything, gather all our forces, directly rush to the pass, share life and death with those people in Dingxi Pass, and then continue to wave the army south, go straight to Huanglong, and destroy the imperial capital of Kyushu. As for the city behind us, it doesn't hurt to lose it. ”

"No, it won't work." One of the strategists shook his head and said, "Since Wang Mang has made this arrangement, he must have calculated this point and taken precautions. If my expectations are correct, when our whole army gathers and wants to fight to the death with those Han troops in Dingxi Pass, they will definitely do their best to defend and retreat into a certain pass city.

With their combat strength and numbers, it is still completely possible to drag on for a few months. And because we are cut off from the back road, we can't afford to wait, we can't afford to consume, and we don't have so much heavy grain and grass to supply.

Therefore, in my opinion, we should quickly lead the army back and engage in a general battle with the enemy forces in our rear, so as to open up the rear road. After doing this, we will have the energy to re-plot the territory of Kyushu. ”

"It's not the right thing either." Bullard, the prime minister of the Yue Clan, said: "If these soldiers in Xiguan are ignored, then how can we stop them from rushing through the pass? We led the army back to attack the Han army in the rear, which also took some time.

If we wait until both of their armies have completed their respective tasks and completely trapped us at a certain pass, then we will have no way to advance and no way to retreat, as if we are in a desperate situation, and there will be no chance of turning over.

Although the Han army in Dingxi Pass is insufficient, they are large enough in number, almost 600,000, and they still have a steady stream of reinforcements coming, which can block our attack for a long time. Although the number of those who appeared at Yumen Pass was small, their combat power was very strong, and they could also block us for a while. We don't have that much time to procrastinate. Otherwise, the morale of the army will change. ”

"Bastard, so our army has no room for redemption at all? Can only be slaughtered by them? Mandrola, the general of the Great Wan Kingdom, roared angrily, looking unwilling.

"Yumen Pass is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack. Although we have just issued a military order, they have transferred eighty percent of the troops and horses. But they still have some combat power, which is enough to defend for a while.

In my opinion, we should quickly lead the army back and try to control the situation before the fall of Yumen Pass. As long as we don't get cut off, we still have a chance to win the game. ”

"Hey..."

Everyone sighed, and they all felt that this was unrealistic.

In their opinion, since the 100,000 army has appeared in Yumen Pass, it means that these people will definitely take Yumen Pass quickly at any cost.

Yumen Pass will definitely not be able to stop it for a day or two, and when he leads the army back, Yumen Pass will definitely be lost for many days.

Da Shan Yu saw that everyone showed a look of powerlessness, and he said lightly: "Don't be too desperate, as long as we are alive, it means that we have not failed." I didn't anticipate the current unfavorable situation, but I did anticipate a worse situation earlier and was well prepared.

In other words, I was ready for our annihilation, and after the annihilation, I still have the ability to get out of here alive with everyone. And I'm still a little bit sure that I can turn defeat into victory.

I, the Huns, have been fighting with the Han for thousands of years, and I have long figured out their treachery, so how can I be defenseless? The reason why I am asking for everyone's opinions now is that I hope to recover from the disadvantages without using the killer weapon. ”
