Chapter 176: Reinforcements from the Southern Barbarian Army Arrive
A day later, there was no news of Meng You, and Meng was ordered to scout the horse to keep an eye on the movement in the direction of Nanban.
Two days later, there was still no news of Meng You, Meng Yuxin said, it is no wonder, after all, King Duosi's Bald Dragon Cave and Yang Feng's Yinye Cave are far away from his own forces, and it is indeed a long time to come and go.
Three days later, four days later, five days later, at this time, Meng Shu was already very anxious, just yesterday, his wife also said that if they didn't come again, he should be forced away by his wife.
But fortunately, it's okay, on the sixth day, Meng Shu, who was worried in the big tent, finally received a report from Tanma: "Report to the king, I found that General Meng You came with a large group of men, and there are still twenty miles according to this!" ”
"Okay, let's explore again!"
Then Meng Shu asked the soldiers to gather all the people under his account and go out of the camp together to meet Meng You and the others-
These people must have asked Meng Shu to greet them in person, so they said that they were not his subordinates, they were not under his own command, and they were here to help, so he had to be polite to others.
It's good that Meng Huo is a barbarian king, but if you are honest, he is not the king of the Southern Barbarians, but the leader of their area, so no matter how far away, who cares what kind of barbarian king you are or not the barbarian king. In the Southern Barbarian Realm, there are many people, and there are caves in this and that cave, Meng Shu can only be said to be one of the relatively large ones.
At the end of the day, in Nanban. Or all the qiē speak with strength. If Meng Shu had that strong strength, it is estimated that he would have made the entire Nanban surrender a long time ago, but didn't he still have that strength.
So for King Duosi and Yang Feng who came from afar. He had to go out to greet him. Besides, the power of the people is not small, and they are still here to help, so no matter what Meng Shu says, he has to go out.
So in this way, he took everyone out of the camp for five miles to greet King Duosi and Yang Feng who came from afar. That's really enough to see.
Anyway, Meng Huo is also the barbarian king of their area, and his reputation can be said to be in the entire Southern Barbarian Territory. They are all very famous such people. Therefore, he was able to take everyone under the tent and go out five miles to greet him, which really gave King Duosi and Yang Feng a lot of face.
If you really talk about it, the power and strength of these two people. Compared to Meng Shulai. Of course, there is still a big difference, so Meng Shu's action is really a big face.
So when the two of them saw Meng Shu, they both smiled, and King Duosi said, "Barbarian King, I really didn't expect it for a few years." It's actually here to meet again, hahaha! ”
said. The two big guys hugged each other, although the relationship between the two was not very good, but they had seen each other before, and they knew each other, so they greeted each other with the etiquette of a hug.
As for Yang Feng and Meng Huo, they are indeed meeting for the first time, so Meng You has to introduce them-
I saw Meng You smile, "Brother, this is what the younger brother often mentions to you, Yang Feng, the master of the Yinye Cave!" ”
Yang Feng hurriedly greeted Meng Huo, after all, he knew in his heart that whether it was compared to power or power, he was inferior to Meng Huo, so of course he had to lower his posture. Although I came to help this time, people may have promised a lot of benefits to themselves, so it was not for nothing, how could I have to do something.
The two of them had obviously heard of each other, so they hurriedly smiled and said hello, there were Meng Shu and Yang Feng, the two of them had just met, and the others could be said to be very familiar with each other.
Meng You has a good relationship with King Duosi and Yang Feng, and King Duosi and Yang Feng are also acquaintances, and Meng Shu and King Duosi have also met, so they are all familiar, needless to say.
"Come, come, come, please enter the account, let's go to the big tent and talk about it later!"
"Okay, please!"
"Please!"
Saying that, everyone entered the big tent, and Meng Shu's big tent was definitely not small, so there was no problem at all with dozens of people-
After everyone entered the big tent, the guests and hosts sat down, and then Meng Yu first introduced the people under his account to King Duosi and Yang Feng, in addition to Meng You, the other two cave masters, as well as their own generals, including the Golden Ring Sanjie and Ah Huilan's generals, all introduced the two of them.
Everyone has seen it, they don't know each other before, but others may not have heard of it, but obviously, they are both cave masters, and they have heard of each other. So when I met, it can be regarded as "once born, twice ripe".
Then King Duosi also introduced the two subordinates who came with him to Meng Shu, both of whom were generals under his account, and everyone met each other.
After that, Yang Feng also briefly introduced the people he brought, and he brought one person, but everyone didn't dare to underestimate it, because Yang Feng brought his only son. When everyone heard this, they said in their hearts, this Yang Feng is not small, the only one seedling, dare to bring it here-
But Yang Feng didn't know what everyone thought, otherwise he would definitely cry out for being wronged, it's time to say, what kind of kid does Lao Tzu want to bring here? If this is really a three-long and two-short, I can't stop it. I really can't help it, this kid has to come, what else can he do?
Yang Feng is nearly forty years old, and his son is almost twenty years old. And he and King Doth. It is indeed much older than Meng Huo's Meng You brothers, and they are old forces that belong to Nanban.
When Meng You came to invite them out of the mountain, King Duosi came directly with two generals and 20,000 horses. As for Yang Feng, he originally wanted to bring two generals here, but his son knew that he was going to fight against the Liangzhou Army of the Han Dynasty, he had to come, there was no way, although Yang Feng said that this person had a bad temper, but he was such a lone seedling for himself. It's really not good, it's really holding it in your hand for fear of falling, and holding it in your mouth for fear of melting. I can't spoil him, so I can't resist him, so I can only bring him here.
If you weren't a person like Yang Feng, he would dare to bring his only seedling to the battlefield. Although his son is okay. But who doesn't know that "the strongest are the stronger". Who dares to underestimate the Han people, at least Yang Feng definitely doesn't dare-
But obviously this misunderstanding has been caused, Yang Feng can feel it somewhat, but he doesn't explain anything.
What everyone thinks, as long as it's not a bad thing, then it doesn't have much to do with him. However, it is obvious that Meng Huo is very satisfied with Yang Feng's actions. In his opinion, although Yang Feng is the same as King Duosi. They all came with 20,000 horses, but they also pulled their own seedlings. Doesn't that tell the story?
This shows that Yang Feng is confident, can it be so? Therefore, when Meng Shu saw Yang Feng like this, he was happy in his heart. said that he and King Duosi knew each other before, but he didn't know Yang Feng. But obviously, he didn't dare to bring his son to the king of Duosi, but Yang Feng dared. This is a real friend, this is the truth in adversity.
Meng Shu thought about it a lot, but if he knew the facts, he didn't know what kind of wonderful expression he would have.
After that, everyone chatted a few words, and then Meng Shu held a banquet to entertain everyone. Not to mention, if you want Meng Huo to have a banquet, if there is no situation, it will definitely not work-
Let's just say that he has always been defeated before, so you let Meng Huo go to the banquet, and he has no chance to go. But this time it's different, even if it's true that I lost miserably before, but people came from afar to help the soldiers, of course I want to feast everyone, so it's right, I can't be too stingy, that's not good.
Even Mrs. Zhurong accompanied her, and drank happily with everyone, they were different from the Han people. The Han people never let women serve the table, but the people of the Southern Barbarians, when the guests come, the host's wife is warmly entertained, which is the biggest face for the guests, and the people of the Southern Barbarians are like this.
Everyone is happy as guests and hosts, and Mrs. Zhurong can be regarded as seeing that she is the king, and she has indeed not been so happy for many days. It's no wonder that it's always been a defeat, and it's been captured twice, so it's weird if you can laugh. It was only during the last small victory that I really laughed for a while. It's not that I haven't laughed, but with Mrs. Zhurong's understanding of it, I don't know, it's more fake, it's just perfunctory-
After all, as a barbarian king and the leader of the Southern Barbarian Army, if Meng Shu didn't smile at his subordinates at all, it was easy for people to think that he didn't even have confidence in his own king. In that case, after a long time, the morale of the army will definitely be weakened, and there will be no remedy at that time.
But obviously, Meng Xu's experience was there, and he knew what could be expressed in front of his subordinates, and what could never be revealed.
Therefore, even if the Southern Barbarian Army in his hands now is indeed frightened of the Liangzhou Army, it can still hold on, and this has to be said to have something to do with him, Meng Shu, the barbarian king.
But the remaining men and horses of the Southern Barbarian Army have definitely become frightened birds, just like Lu Xun said to Ma Chao, but Meng Shu didn't think of this. And by the time he really found out the problem, it was estimated that it would be too late, after all, with Meng Huo's less than half-baked strategy, what else could he expect from him?
After the banquet, Meng Shu said to everyone: "Now we have more than 100,000 people. So of course, it is necessary to enter Yutongshan again and fight with the Liangzhou army! ”
Everyone shouted in unison: "Yes!" ”
And King Duosi and Yang Feng glanced at each other, and both of them said in their hearts. It seems that Meng Shu is really anxious. Doesn't the Han people have something to say, called "I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry", can this defeat the Liangzhou army.
To be honest, King Duosi didn't take Ma Chao's Liangzhou army too seriously, and when Meng You went to move the troops, he explained it very clearly to him. Meng You said that this Liangzhou army can defeat his own side. It is completely relying on their intrigues and tricks, and in terms of real strength, they are not as good as their own.
And King Duosi because of his trust in Meng You. and contempt for Ma Chaoliangzhou Army, he really believed this. So he immediately brought the troops and Meng You and Yang Feng together-
As for Yang Feng's side, Meng You didn't say that, but just promised you a lot of things. Yang Feng brought the troops here.
But Yang Feng really didn't know the bottom in his heart. Because in his opinion, he has never fought with the Han people, and he doesn't know if he is an opponent of others. To say that even such a powerful Meng Shu has lost, and he can win by going by himself? But obviously, he understands what it means to be "rich and dangerous", as long as he goes, in the end, he will win or lose. Don't you know it all?
Victory, better than anything else. With the benefits that Meng received from himself, and the benefits he received from the Liangzhou Army, this is enough for himself. As for the defeat, he will retreat quickly, and just run away. Anyway, he doesn't have any friendship with him Meng You, although the relationship with Meng You is not bad, but he can be regarded as benevolent and righteous.
Besides, he Meng You is Meng You, and Meng Yu is Meng You. I have a good relationship with Meng You, but I don't have a good relationship with him Meng You.
So with such an idea, Yang Feng came with them-
On the second day after King Duosi and Yang Feng came to Meng Huo's camp, in the morning, Meng Huo and everyone led their troops to Yutong Mountain again.
"Report to the lord, Meng Huo's army still has thirty miles according to this, and there are about 100,000 men and horses!"
Ma Chao smiled, "Explore again!" ”
"No!"
After Tanma retreated, he said to Lu Xun who was not far away: "Bo Yan, it seems that Meng Huo's main force and reinforcements have arrived, and our men and horses have arrived last night, otherwise it is true, it is not easy to deal with so many people in Meng Huo!" ”
Lu Xun smiled: "Lord, it's true that this Meng has been invited to send reinforcements, but if there are too many people, it may not be a good thing." I think our army can try to break through each one, what is the Lord's will? ”
Ma Chao nodded when he heard this, "Okay, as soon as I say it, I will follow what Boyan said!" ”――
In Ma Chao's view, what Lu Xun said is indeed very reasonable. In fact, Meng Huo sent people to move troops, it was nothing more than a few people, and he still had the confidence to deal with it.
A foreign race is a foreign race after all, and they don't have a real strategist, and they can only suffer from it. If they had decent counselors, they wouldn't have looked at them that way, and if they hadn't paid attention to them, it wouldn't have been possible.
But now they don't have it, and if they don't, how can they pay attention to it?
Even if they are tigers, they are only toothless tigers, but they are tigers with teeth, so when compared, they can indeed be said to be superior and judgmental.
So in the end, who is strong and which is weak, a discerning person will know at a glance that he doesn't need to think about anything more. The Southern Barbarian Army, the matter of the Southern Barbarians, Meng Huo, he must solve them all well.
Thinking of this, Ma Chao smiled slightly, as if he saw the day when he solved all of these-
Meng Shu set up camp five miles away from Ma Chaoliangzhou's army, not that he didn't want to move forward, but he felt that there was not much need, this distance, now, can't be said to be too far, of course it's not close, even if it's about the same.
After all, you are going to be close, and you can't fight nearly 200,000 people. He had learned from Tanma that Ma Chao's reinforcements had also arrived from Chengdu, so there may not be fewer people than him, it should be said that it was about the same.
In this regard, Meng Huo has no surprises and no regrets. For him, he wished that the people of the Liangzhou Army were similar to him, or if the other party was really less, he thought that others should have a rhetoric, and his own victory was also a victory, all relying on his own side more than others.
If you want to say that Meng Shu is such a good-looking person, he will never allow others to say so. So in his opinion, now that both sides are about the same, that's really the best, so that if he wins, others won't have anything to say, right?
There is one more update after that (to be continued......
