Chapter 63: As long as the temptation is big enough

Liu Xie didn't know this, otherwise he would have directly ordered Xu Huang to lead his troops north, and he would not have let the five people come over to discuss.

"According to Aiqing's words, we still have to use tactics to lure the enemy deeper."

"Your Majesty is wise, the Hun cavalry has always been extremely fast, when let it cross the south bank of the Fenshui and the muddy water, in blocking its way to the north, and then find its decisive battle, a victory to annihilate it, it is the best policy." Jia Xu pointed to the strategic sand table that Liu Xie asked people to do, pointed to it and said:

"This is according to His Majesty's will to do the Hedong sand table, you see, after crossing the muddy water, go south to hear that this is a narrow road, if you can lure the Hun cavalry to attack Wenxi City, after it goes south, build a city under the pass, you can block the shortcut for the Huns to return north.

This road is impassable, and the Hun cavalry will either storm Wenxi and break the city to gain a foothold; Either go eastward, cross this flat beach, detour from Weizhuang, and go north in the direction of Yicheng.

Based on the experience of the Xiongnu who invaded Hedong many times and their habits, it is very possible to take the road of Weizhuang, so we set up a Zika in Weizhuang in advance to intercept it, and none of the invading Xiongnu can escape. ”

"The question is whether the Huns will be fooled, whether they dare to invade Wenxi County in the south." Wang Yi asked.

"Dare! As long as the temptation is big enough, the bait is strong enough, and they will come. Jia Xu said firmly, looking at Liu Xie, and everyone also turned to look at Liu Xie, not knowing what Jia Xu meant.

Liu Xie joked: "What is bigger than my bait, I went to Wenxi to conquer in person, and the Huns may want to capture a Han emperor for fun." ”

"Your Majesty! Even if you go to the front line in danger, the Xiongnu will not necessarily attack Wenxi, so it is better to ask Your Majesty to stay in Anyi. Wang Yi still persuaded worriedly.

If it was the Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty in the past, they would be interested if they were not prepared, but now it is just a Son of Heaven in several counties in half of Hedong, and the attraction is not enough, and grabbing it will not bring much reward to the Xiongnu, on the contrary, it will anger the Han people.

"Whether they come or not, I will personally conquer the front line, this time the Huns will never be allowed to act recklessly in Hedong, rob our Han people, and do that burning, killing and looting, they either don't come, they will be killed." Liu Xiecai didn't know how to ink like this, and when he saw that Wei Ji and others still had something to say, he said directly:

"In the past, the Huns went south with the help of Baibo bandits, and they saw and saw with their eyes and ears, but this time Han Xian, Hu Cai, and Li Le were eliminated, and the Huns had fewer eyes and ears, so see how they galloped across the east of the river."

"That's it! This matter needs to be planned, now go and issue an order first, to unite the people, unite all the forces that can be united, and go all out to deal with the Huns, Pei Qian, you are happy to hear the big clan, immediately return to Wenxi, move the people nearby into the city, and clear the wilderness for me to strengthen the wall, there must be no mistake. ”

"No! The minister will go. Pei Qian was ordered to leave and quickly rushed back to Wenxi.

Liu Xie said: "Now, these three positions need someone to be responsible, Wenxi is responsible for the temptation of the enemy, and Gongming is responsible for going down to the village at the pass and blocking the road to the north of the Xiongnu, so I have never thought about who will be responsible for the road of Weizhuang." ”

There is only one general under his command who can fight, and Liu Xie is somewhat helpless.

There are so many generals in the world, but they are all in other people's hands, which makes him a little depressed, as the Son of Heaven, there are few available generals in the huge empire, how sad.

Wang Yi recommended himself: "Your Majesty, why don't you let the ministers come here." The minister also led the soldiers to fight, the minister took the soldiers in the county, ambushed here, Liu Bao came, and the two mountains will roll the stone and wood at the same time, and kill him alone on his back. ”

Wang Yi has led soldiers, but there have always been few soldiers and few generals, and he has fought, but there are few bandits who have been exterminated, and he has been defeated in the harassment war against the Huns, and his subordinates have encountered the Huns, although they are ambushes, they may not be able to stop them.

If Liu Xie is completely annihilated, he will hurt the Huns at one time, and if Liu Bao runs away, it will be a trouble, and there will be no peace in the northeast of Hebei in the future.

Then Liu Xie looked at Jia Xu a few times, Jia Xu touched his beard, shook his head slightly and said no, Liu Xie saw this in his heart, so he said to Wang Yi:

"Wang Aiqing, you have always defended the city, your soldiers and horses are afraid of the Huns all the year round, and I am afraid that you will not be able to stop all the Hun cavalry, so you are responsible for guarding the city of Jiangyi, although we let go of the muddy water line to lead Liu Bao to Wenxi, but it is not to send this city of Jiangyi to him, so that he can loot unscrupulously, so he still needs enough prestige generals to guard, so it can only be Wang Aiqing."

Wang Yi thought about it, and also felt that what the Son of Heaven said was very reasonable, in case Liu Bao did not bring all the Hun cavalry into the pass to attack Wenxi, but to gain a foothold in Xianjiangyi, and he fought a defensive counterattack in Jianyi to drag down Liu Bao.

"The minister took on the task." Wang Yi commanded.

"In this way, it can only be Jia Aiqing who ambushes Weizhuang, for how to ambush, where to ambush, how to confuse the Hun army to the greatest extent, I think no one is better at it than Jia Aiqing, this matter is just right for you." Liu Xie had no choice but to let Jia Xu take over this most important job, and it was also the biggest credit.

Jia Xu was excited, feeling that the burden was heavy, and the Son of Heaven was giving such a great trust, which was incomparable to anyone.

Of course, Liu Xie also has some worries: "But what makes me uneasy is that Jia Aiqing is not a general, and I will not give you too many soldiers and horses. ”

There are too few generals who can be used, and even fewer can fight, how could Jia Xu want to lead the troops to the front line to fight directly with the enemy at close range, and was about to speak, Liu Xie said: "In this way, I asked Li Yan to go with you, although Li Aiqing has not commanded battles, but he is strong in martial arts, can set the heart of the army, strengthen the prestige of our army, and can charge into battle at critical moments." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Li Yan had no experience in leading troops, so he was suddenly appointed directly to the front line and used as a general, and he was overjoyed.

Only when a military general fights can he obtain great achievements, be crowned a wife and son, and win a knighthood.

Although he is the king of swords, although he loves forging knives, he is also a citizen of the Han Dynasty, and he also cherishes the military exploits of the Han Dynasty and the title.

However, Xu Huang said: "Your Majesty! General Li went to Weizhuang, what should you do, you can't have a general by your side to sit in Wenxi, you can't let Your Majesty personally lead the troops to fight in the city, the ministers are really a little worried. ”

Wang Yi, Jia Xu and others all nodded, if the Huns really wanted to rob the Son of Heaven and blindly attack Wenxi, there were no capable generals around the Son of Heaven at that time, which was very bad.

"I'm just defending the city, as long as there are soldiers, what are you afraid of?" Liu Xie was not afraid, and he was still saying that at this time, he only heard Zhou Gang report at the door: "Your Majesty! There were two people outside the palace who asked to see him, and one of them said that his name was Wang Yue.

He said that he had given his name, and that His Majesty would summon him in. ”

"Wang Yue! Emperor? Liu Xie's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly said: "Bring them in quickly, the emperor came just in time, and you can rest assured that you have him by my side." ”
