0218: Troops
On September 18, Yu Fuluo took the lead in sending troops, leading nearly 80,000 troops gathered from all over the country to march to Manbo, and at the same time, the Huns in the direction of Shuofang and Shangjun had already gathered nearly 50,000 people in Xi'anyang, but they did not attack, but continued to send scouts to investigate the situation in Wuyuan County.
There is obviously only one purpose, that is, to maintain the threat to Wuyuan County, otherwise Wuyuan County and even Yunzhong County will send troops to support Manbo.
At the same time, Guo Tai of Baibo Valley led an army of 100,000 from Pingzhou and arrived outside the city of Zishi in a few days. And Nahuyuquan led 30,000 Hu cavalry to march all the way to the southeast from Pingzhou City, but he planned to directly bypass the many county towns of Taiyuan County and go straight to the baggage team led by Lu Zhi of Shangdang County.
On the other side, Zhang Yanqin of Montenegro led an army of 100,000 from Montenegro to Yuci County, Taiyuan County through Shangai County, and sent another general to lead an army of 50,000 to attack Yangqu County in the north of Taiyuan County, with a total of more than 400,000 troops from the three sides, pointing directly at Taiyuan County. Yes, baggage is indeed very attractive to them, but Li Yi is the biggest purpose of their dispatch this time! Even if you can't grab those baggage, as long as you can capture Taiyuan, it will be enough.
As long as Taiyuan is conquered, it can completely cut off the connection between Li Yi and the Han court. Then Li Yi only relied on Yanmen, Wuyuan and other counties, it was impossible to resist their tripartite forces, and at the same time, they could also resist Li Yi's offensive while going south to attack Shangdang, and even fight all the way into Hanoi.
At that time, how can the inevitable imperial court resist them? You must know that in the westernmost Liangzhou, there are still 100,000 rebels!
"Humph! Is it finally here? Lu Bu held Fang Tian's halberd and snorted coldly, "I'm already impatient!" It's just that although Lu Bu said domineering in his mouth, the hand holding Fang Tian's halberd trembling slightly revealed his nervous mood at this time.
Although he had worried that Guan Yu had no experience in commanding an army before, in fact, how could he Lu Bu have it? Perhaps, in history, he is the overlord who led the wolf cavalry to conquer the world and will do his best in the world, but today's Lu Bu is obviously far inferior to the one in history.
Although Lu Bu has been serving as Li Yi's deputy as a long history, in fact, from the period of the Liao camp to the pacification of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, whether it is he, Lu Bu or others such as Gao Shun and others, they are just fierce generals who charge behind Li Yi. Perhaps the only thing that is stronger than Guan Yu is that the training of the flying cavalry camp in the later stage is basically arranged by Lu Bu.
It can be said that this upcoming war is not only a battle that will determine the fate of Bingzhou and even Li Yi's career, but also the first war commanded by Lu Bu, Gao Shun and others as a commander, and it is also such a disadvantaged war.
By the way, after determining the purpose of Yu Fuluo and others, Li Yi directly ordered Lu Bu to take over all the defense and military affairs in Yuci County, and the same was true for Gao Shun, Zang Min, Yan Liang and others. There is no way, although there are corresponding military attaches in these places, but in this case, Li Yi really can't believe them.
After all, this war is too critical, Li Yi doesn't want to lose, and he can't lose! For this reason, he even transferred the troops of Shangdang County to Taiyuan County to the greatest extent. At the same time, Tong Fei, who was in the clouds, was transferred back, and Dian Wei was sent to Taiyuan.
Manber County.
Li Yi stood in place with a serious expression, and Cai Yan and Diao Chan on the side had some difficulty helping Li Yi put on the armor, obviously for them, this matter was more difficult. But they still asked to put on the armor for Li Yi in person, and it seemed that only in this way could they be able to put their minds at ease.
After a long while, Li Yi checked it, and then smiled at Cai Yan, "Don't worry, madam, I'll be back soon~"
"The concubine wishes the gentleman a great victory!" Cai Yan bowed and bowed when he heard this.
Nodding at Cai Yan, Li Yi touched Diao Chan's hair on the side, and then turned around and walked out. On the side, Xiaobai turned his head to look at Cai Yan and roared, as if assuring them of something, and then followed Li Yi out of the door in high spirits.
didn't take two steps, Li Yi suddenly looked at Xiao Bai beside him a little strangely, "Speaking of which, why is Xiao Bai so energetic every time you encounter a war, but you are usually like a pig, except for eating and sleeping?" ”
"Whew!" As if he understood Li Yi's words, Xiaobai roared dissatisfiedly.
"Haha! Perhaps, as the Holy One said, you are actually a divine beast in the sky? Li Yi laughed and said, not long after, he had already come to the city gate, Cai Yong, Zhang Zhi, Zhang Xu, Xia Houlan and Zhang Meng were already waiting here. On both sides of the street, all the people of the city of Manber gathered.
"Zikang, do you really want to fight the enemy army outside the city? With the grain stored in the city, it is not a problem to hold on for more than half a year. Cai Yong said with some concern.
"Haha! The enemy is only 80,000 men, but our army has 30,000 troops! In this case, if I am still in the city, won't I lose the prestige of my unparalleled marquis?! Li Yi laughed and said, "Uncle, don't worry! In this battle, my nephew will definitely win! ”
Then, Li Yi walked to Zhang Meng and Xiahou Lan's side, patted the shoulders of the two of them heavily, and said with a smile, "The affairs in the city will be handed over to you!" ”
"Please rest assured!" Xia Houlan and Zhang Meng responded loudly when they heard this. Although there are Cai Yong, Zhang Zhi and others, they are just simple Confucian scholars after all, and marching and fighting are not what they are good at.
At the same time, the people on both sides of the street and the soldiers on the city walls shouted at the same time, "Please rest assured, Champion! We will defend the city to the death! ”
"Haha! Fathers and fellow villagers, if your words are heard by the soldiers outside the city, I am afraid that they will die of shame. Li Yi laughed when he heard this, and then said no more, because he didn't know how many times he had said it during this time.
I saw him turn over and get into Xiaobai, and went out of the city gate directly. Outside the city, a full 30,000 troops had already been assembled, and standing at the forefront were Tong Fei, Zhao Yun, Zhang Ren, and Zhang Liao.
Glancing around at everyone, Li Yi then said loudly, "You also heard the voice in the city just now!" If they are needed, it's not just my shame, it's your shame! Because ours can't! will give that Hu Lu a chance to attack Mamber! Do you think you're incompetent?! ”
"No!" The crowd shouted in unison.
"Good!" Hearing this, Li Yi nodded with satisfaction and said, "I've never liked to say anything big, so it's still the same sentence!" Money! Woman! Honor! Fame! Status! Everything you want! Defeat the enemy in front of you and you'll get it! ”
"Whoa, whoa!" The crowd shouted again, their voices soaring into the sky.
"Let's go!"
