Volume 1 The Beginning of the Late Han Dynasty Chapter 39 A Powerful Army, Xu Fuwu

Since the time of Xiang Ao's order, the entire battlefield has been divided into several pieces in a moment. If you look down at the battlefield from above, you can find that Xianbei has been surrounded by the Han army at this time, and the blocks are constantly staggered, and the blocks begin to shrink after each crossing. Under such circumstances, the Xianbei cavalry unconsciously decreased rapidly.

"Lord, this formation is really good, at this time, Captain Xianbei probably doesn't know that the army has been divided!"

After a moment of madness, Xu Fu was awakened by Xiang Ao, who was already out of breath at this time. The first time he went into battle to kill the enemy, he was inevitably affected by the ubiquitous killing intent on the battlefield, and Xu Fu himself was even more apprehensive.

"I thought that this team must be extraordinary, not just reckless." Xiang Ao has stopped killing the enemy at this time, and the military formation has been formed, if there is no master of breaking the formation, even if there is no other way to do it, after all, the military formation is divided into different regions, and it is extremely difficult to exchange military orders after being divided. Unless there are more than a dozen unparalleled generals, they can be gathered into an army again. But looking at this army, it is impossible.

This array also has weaknesses, if the advantage of the armor exceeds that of Xiang Ao's army, it is also in vain if it cannot trap the various phalanxes. There is also the unparalleled generals mentioned earlier, if it is more than half of the phalanx, it is easy to break this formation. However, with Xianbei's military strength at this time, even the elite of the Han Dynasty may not be able to meet such conditions at this time.

There are indeed too many Xianbei cavalry, nearly 30,000 of them, and Xiang Ao used this army formation to fight for nearly three hours. With such a high-intensity fight, not to mention Xianbei, the Han army who just raised a knife to kill people was also very tired. When the sky was getting dark, Captain Xianbei noticed some clues.

"Shameless Han Dog, you have the courage to fight against Ben General, and you will not accept the formation Demon Dao."

Scold! Succeed in the king or defeat the king, and there is still a disobedience on the battlefield? Xiang Ao begged for it, and laughed lightly. Xiang Ao looked at the battlefield and found that most of the casualties in Xianbei had passed, and the Han army was also tired. Since this person was so funny, Xiang Ao decided to stop and talk to him.

"Order, collect troops!"

"Woo woo..."The Han army was excited from the beginning of the killing to the current exhaustion, smelled the horn of the army, instantly repelled the Xianbei cavalry beside him, and retreated towards the rear of Xiang Ao. Although he was extremely tired, he was still not chaotic and methodical when he retreated from the formation.

Seeing that the Han people had withdrawn, the Xianbei Wanfu was relieved in his heart, and he could finally rest. For more than two hours, Captain Xianbei blocked many sieges, but there were only a few Han soldiers who could machete. Captain Xianbei trembled his hands, bracing his body and ordering the reorganization of the army. The result shocked the Xianbei Wanfu. There are more than 28,000 cavalry, and only more than 7,000 can be mounted at this time, and I don't know how many of the corpses in the pile of corpses placed horizontally and vertically between the two armies survived.

Xiang Ao also suffered a lot of casualties, with more than 2,000 cavalry attrition, including hundreds of archers, which made Xiang Ao's heart ache.

"Can you wait for it?" Xiang Ao shouted: "This general is not a person to kill, nor is it not that Xianbei is not allowed to be inferior, but Xianbei intrudes on the border of our Han every year, poisons the people, and the general is forced to raise troops. ”

"You, the Han people, are so vain!" Xianbei Wanfu shouted angrily: "Don't I know that the Han people are cunning, before Tanshi Huai Shan Yu, I Xianbei also paid tribute to the Ru Han Dynasty, but what is the result?" The Han people do not regard Wu Xianbei as the people of the Han people, how can the oppression and bullying ever stop? Especially the family, shouldn't I be as humble as a pig and a dog? Surrender, delusional! ”

"This general is Xiang Ao, the general of the Northern Regions, and the Northern Protectorate is under my jurisdiction. All the household registrations in the Northern Regions are all people of the Northern Regions, and there is no difference. As for the scene today, it is the fault of the war, and I have not blamed anyone. Besides, do you think that in such a scenario, you can escape the general's army today? Please also ask the general to think quickly, if it is timely, the tens of thousands of soldiers lying in front of him may be able to save one or two. ”

Captain Xianbei was entangled. can't fight, can't escape, the key is that he also wants to rescue the soldiers who haven't lost their breath in the pile of corpses, but he hates the Han people and doesn't want to surrender. "Han general, I admire your benevolence, but I can't teach me to surrender."

"In that case, don't blame the general for being ruthless, besides, there are soldiers lying in the corpse pile, and there are those who can be saved." Xiang Ao's face was difficult and he was ready to wave his hand and order.

"Wait!" Captain Xianbei shouted anxiously: "Han general, I can surrender, but please let the general go back to my soldiers, they just follow orders." ”

"It's impossible, this time I should have known that I would have sent troops to the land of Xianbei, if thousands of soldiers and horses were released, the danger of this trip would be a little more, how can I explain to the people behind me?" Xiang Ao directly refused, but he said in a deep voice: "I don't want to kill more, if you abandon the army and surrender, and then release you after the general captures Danhan Mountain, if you still don't allow it, then the battle is!" ”

Captain Xianbei Wanfu, his face was ugly, and his heart was even more entangled, and finally he had to grit his teeth and say: "Okay! I will believe in the general once! After speaking, he took the lead and dismounted and threw away his weapon. The people behind him also dismounted and abandoned their troops.

Seeing this, Xiang Ao raised his hand, and hundreds of cavalry crossed the pile of corpses to the Xianbei people to collect weapons and horses. Seeing that thousands of Xianbei people surrendered, Xiang Ao hurriedly ordered to follow the military doctors to find the living.

Xiang Ao ordered people to guard Xianbei and look for soldiers who were still alive, and Xiang Ao and the others were busy until the second day. Although Xiang Ao's army formation was a killing formation, Xiang Ao had specially instructed him during training that he only needed to let the enemy in the formation lose action. Since then, more than 20,000 people's corpses have been saved. More of the soldiers who died were trampled to death by falling to the ground, and very few died from injuries.

Seeing such a result, Captain Xianbei Wanfu was even more grateful to Xiang Ao, and his heart also gave rise to sincerity. And Xiang Ao's soldiers rescued a lot, nearly more than 1,000.

"Lord, it is extremely dangerous to stay so far in Xianhu!" Xu Fuji was worried, excluding the disabled, the Xianbei people, and those who were rescued, there were still more than 15,000 people who could go on horses to fight, which was much more than Xiang Ao's headquarters.

"It's okay, Zhongda should have arrived here, just send a few cavalry to escort the surplus Xianbei people back to the clouds and settle down."

Hearing Xiang Ao's arrangement, Xu Fu was slightly determined. "Lord, it would not be forgivable if it was to be escorted back to Xianbei to capture the Northern Regions on weekdays and slowly edify, but this time it is a war to annihilate the royal court, which is very dangerous. Especially the Xianbei foreign tribes have invaded our Han for many years, and there are a lot of poisonous people, who should be killed, why is the lord so benevolent and virtuous, and still saves his life! ”

"Yuan Zhike still remember my "Chicken Deer Nostalgia"?"

"Remember!"

"Have you ever seen me too compassionate during the war?"

"Never!"

"Then Yuan Zhi thinks why I am so uncertain, have compassion and have been ruthless?" Xu Fu looked at Xiang Ao with a puzzled face.

"Yuanzhi, I once said that in order to make the people live a better life, I also said that I did not want to kill more. But from Shuofang to the present, how many Southern Xiongnu, Xianbei, and even Han people have died in my harvest? Xiang Ao sighed and said: "The world is so big, where can I see the peace of the people?" The richest Jizhou? The center of power? Or a barren state? Or even a foreign race? ”

"I haven't seen it, I haven't seen it anywhere!" Xiang Ao looked up at the sky: "I just want to use my blood and weak strength to carve a pure land for the people, not to seek peace in everything, not to be free of oppression, just to let the people live, just to live." And the ruthlessness is against those who want to stop me from realizing my ambition, not the people of the world. ”

"Yuan Zhi and Kong Ming once asked me about my ambition, and I also asked myself for a long time when the night was quiet." Xiang Ao lowered his head and stared at Xu Fu: "If the Han can be saved, I am willing to devote my life to help His Majesty create a peaceful and prosperous world for the Han Dynasty, if the Han cannot be saved..."

Xiang Ao sighed deeply and said firmly: "I will fight with the Heavenly Dao!" At least for the rest of his life, the people under Ao can live, and only for what they will die. ”

Xu Fu's heart was shocked, it turned out that the lord thought so far, and it turned out that the lord's grand wish was like this.

"Lord..."Xu Fu couldn't express the vibration in his heart, which made people dizzy like moving mountains and seas. After a while, Xu Fu knelt on his knees: "I can do things to the lord in my lifetime, and I am blessed enough." Fuding did his best to help the lord realize his ambition. ”

Xiang Ao picked up Xu Fu and patted the dust off his knees for him: "Yuan Zhi, only Kong Ming knew about this before, you are the second person, and I will not say it again in the future." If Yuan Zhi Yuan Zhi is willing to go down with me, I am very relieved! ”

"This is the only wish for happiness in this life!"

Receiving this answer, Xiang Ao clasped Xu Fu's hands tightly, and was also moved.

The next day, Gao Shun did chase Xiang Ao, and after a brief handover, he ordered Yijun to lead 1,000 infantry and 500 cavalry to escort more than 10,000 Xianbei to Yunzhong. At first, Captain Xianbei tried his best to stop it, but Xiang Ao had to persuade for a long time, perhaps Captain Xianbei felt his sincerity, and finally reluctantly agreed.

Under Xiang Ao's inquiry, he finally learned who this was. This person's name is Bu Dugen, one of the three major leaders under Helian, and this time he sent troops to rob Xiang Ao's soldiers and horses was instigated by the cronies left by Kebineng and Yuwen Mohuai in the royal court. The two described Xiang Ao as a great evil in the world, slaughtering many Xianbei people. The reckless Budugen believed it to be true, and left the royal court a month ago, and gathered 20,000 soldiers and horses outside the fortress to raid.

Although Budugen is reckless, he is very prestigious in Xianbei because of his bravery, and he is extremely sympathetic to the herdsmen and never does evil, so he is deeply supported. In less than a full moon, more than 20,000 soldiers and horses can be gathered. Xiang Ao handed over the five thousand Xianbei soldiers and horses left behind to Bu Dugen, and returned the horses and armor, so that Bu Dugen had a good impression of Xiang Ao.

"My lord, this place has reached the north of the Xianbei Royal Court, not more than a hundred miles." Xu Fu took out the map and pointed out the place name and distance for Xiang Ao.

"These little things will be handed over to the personal guards in the future, and Yuan Zhi doesn't have to do everything himself." Xiang Ao reminded that it was a rule to let the military advisor Xu Fu take care of the map.

Xu Fu also did not defend himself, and continued: "The leader of Budugen just mentioned that at this time, there are still about 20,000 soldiers and horses in the royal court, all of whom are the old department of Tanshi Huai, loyal to Helian, and the rest of the soldiers and horses are looking for a reason to retreat. In particular, Yuwen Mohuai almost did not recognize and even singled in his position, and retreated to Daxianbei Mountain. ”

"If it is a strong attack, it will not be pleased, so we have to try to lure out the company." Xu Fu pointed to the place marked as a river on the map: "The water is less than ten miles away from the royal court's tent, Xianbei will follow the example of my Han to block the river in order to facilitate the water, and raise the river bank by more than two zhang, if you try to dig the embankment..."

Xiang Ao frowned slightly and said: "It's not easy to subdue Budugen, if you use this method to be evil to Budugen, I am afraid that there will be an obstacle to my Northern Regions to subdue Xianbei in the future!" ”

"Don't worry, my lord, there are people who have benefited, and they have to give some strength to each other!" Xu Fu said mysteriously.
