In the third year of Empress Dowager Fu's reign, Liu Jiye, the first general of the Northern Han Dynasty and the first fierce general in the world, surrendered.

No, it's called Yang Ye now.

Yang Ye's surrender, no one in the Northern Han army still has the heart of a war, the civil and military officials even breathed a sigh of relief, the so-called person who knows the times is Junjie, this Northern Han is not better than the Southern Tang Dynasty or Hou Shu, it has only been more than ten years since it was split from the Later Zhou, and now the national strength is weak, and the Khitan father is too hateful, so there is no resistance to the surrender, the Northern Han Dynasty has no resistance, and Liu Jien, as the honor of the Ninety-Five, although 10,000 are unwilling to surrender, but now the general trend has gone, as long as Yang Ye orders the four city gates to be opened, Hou Zhou can still easily break through and occupy Jinyang, rather than die in the net, it is better to go to Hou Zhou to be a rich idler after surrendering.

Empress Dowager Fu still treats him preferentially, after all, this is the first enemy emperor to surrender, and he must be raised as a mascot with good food and drink, and set an example for the Southern Tang Jinghu Nanhan of Houshu.

It wasn't until the army entered the city, a series of superficial efforts were completed, and the Empress Dowager Fu sat in the palace of the Northern Han Dynasty and proudly accepted the worship of the old ministers of the Northern Han Dynasty, that everyone thought of a key question.

What about the Khitan?

After Yang Ye's narration, as early as a month ago, when Li Yun first surrounded him, Liu Jien told him that the Khitan reinforcements would arrive in seven days.

So, seven days, seven days, seven days, and more than a month passed, until before surrendering, it was said that it would be three days later.

Everyone looked at each other, no one knew what was going on, was it that the Khitan didn't care about the life or death of the Northern Han? This is obviously impossible, after all, the Northern Han is a nail in the door of the door of the Later Zhou Dynasty, and no one is a fool. Starting from the Khitan Yanyun Land, how could the cavalry go south for seven days to get to Jinyang City, why haven't you seen the Khitan figure for a month?

Just when everyone was confused and didn't know the situation, the battle report finally arrived.

"Report ~~ Report to the Queen Mother, our army has won a big victory!"

"Do you still need you to report our army's victory?" What the hell, I'm sitting in the palace of the Northern Han Dynasty now, of course it's a big victory.

"No, Queen Mother, the villain is to repay the victory of the Tianxiong Army, my Tianxiong Army was ordered to block the Khitan and delay the reinforcements, and the Jiedu made Fu Yanlin and the Liao general Xiao Jili fight in the Hulu Valley, and use the terrain to delay the Liaodong Iron Cavalry for eleven days!"

"Good! The fifth uncle is really brave! ”

"Eleven days later, Commander Zhou's envoy arrived."

Zhou Yu? Faintly, Empress Dowager Fu had a hunch that the delay in the arrival of the Khitans must have something to do with him.

Sure enough, with the herald's report, everyone's eyes straightened.

"Empress Dowager, Zhou Commander personally went into battle, Fu Shuai and Xiao Jili were in the middle of the battle to raid Xiao Jili's rear army, our army won a complete victory, beheaded 7,000, captured 4,000 horses, and the rest fled back to Khitan."

Empress Dowager Fu's face turned red when she heard this, and she couldn't bear her joy, so she blurted out, "Okay!" is really worthy of being the martial arts star chosen by God! ”

At this time, I saw that this little soldier's face was full of awe and fanaticism, and he said excitedly: "Report to the Queen Mother again, Xiao Jili is only the front army in the Khitan reinforcements, and Yelu Tartlie, the king of the Khitan Southern Courtyard, was furious when he heard that Xiao Jili was defeated, and personally led 200,000 southern troops south. ”

I don't know if this messenger is deliberately hanging people's appetite, or if it is the origin of storytelling and singing, he gasped and mobilized everyone's emotions, as soon as he heard that the king of the southern courtyard of Liao State personally led the troops, everyone felt heavy breathing, waiting for his next words.

I saw that this little soldier took a deep breath and shouted loudly with all the strength of his body: "Commander Zhou used the soldiers like a god, calculated the march route of Yelu Tart, and set up ambush troops to meet the enemy, seven battles in ten days, and seven victories!" ”

Quiet.

There was no one applauding the hall for a while, but it was extremely quiet.

This sudden news caught everyone off guard, and no one dared to believe it for a while.

Khitan! This nail that was inserted in the hearts of every Han people during the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, the Khitan Iron Cavalry, which had been invincible for five generations, was actually defeated by the 80,000 infantry cavalry of the Tianxiong Military Region? And defeated eight times in a row in one go?

How did Zhou Yu do it? With the careful interrogation of everyone, the course of the matter was generally clear.

There is actually nothing to say about the beginning of that battle, the Khitan iron cavalry comes and goes like the wind, from the Khitan to support the Northern Han Dynasty, there are more than a dozen marching routes, but Xiao Jili chose the latest, Fu Yanlin is also a veteran of the battlefield, naturally he will not let go of this opportunity, blocked them in the Hulu Valley, and took advantage of the geographical advantage to fight to the death with the Tianxiong soldiers, and finally blocked him to the death outside the Hulu Valley, and Xiao Jili began to think about a detour.

After that, Zhou Yu arrived with the aura of Wuqu Xing.

Because the Battle of Chibi is so famous, many people mention that Zhou Yu is the Three Kingdoms Zhou Lang Chibi, and they have the impression that he is best at fighting water warfare and arson, but in fact, when people followed Sun Ce to pacify Jiangdong in the early years, they fought all land battles.

And the biggest feature of Zhou Yu's battle is that he can use his brain and never fight hard, looking at his life's achievements, Sun Ce has always been fighting the enemy head-on in front, and he is obscene and detoured into the back row, and every time he can always appear at a very appropriate time when the two sides are in the middle of a fierce battle, he will appear in the position where the enemy least wants him to appear.

Kindness... Normally, if Zhou Yu shows up on the battlefield, the battle can be declared over.

Once or twice may be luck, but every time you fight like this, it can be called terrifying, what a powerful calculation power is required, to do this, you must accurately analyze every position where the enemy appears at each time, and even the troops, troops, formations and many other elements must be clear, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a genius commander.

And obviously, his Zhou Yu's ingenuity came to Hou Zhou, keenly discovered Xiao Jili's attempt to detour, and calculated the route they were going to take, Guan Fu Yanlin asked for 20,000 people, and decisively staged another detour to send back, and conducted a semi-ambush-style encounter in a small valley, many Khitan cavalry could not escape at all, when Zhou Yu successfully appeared in their rear formation, all the Khitans were stupid, they had fought a lifetime, and it was the first time they encountered such a dispatch.

The so-called cavalry has no baggage, but relatively speaking, the Khitans also have to bring tents to fight, and they also have to drive tens of thousands of sheep, these sheep can produce milk, and can kill and eat meat, and it is also the property of these soldiers, because the cavalry is not as dependent on the formation as the infantry, so Zhou Yu decisively decided: kill sheep.

The Khitans, who were fighting with Fu Yanlin, heard the sudden sound of slashing behind them, followed by the sound of sheep crying in a row, and immediately became calm.

It's not difficult to kill someone, let alone kill a sheep? Even killed and released, 100,000 sheep quickly ran and killed, and soon the Khitans panicked, and were killed by the front and back attacks! And because of the terrain, even the advantage that the cavalry can run at any time was not fully exerted, leaving a small half of the men and horses to retreat in embarrassment, Xiao Jili died on the spot, and the Khitan who survived by luck ran back like a dog.

After that, it was the fury of the Liao State, and the king of the Southern Courtyard, Yelu Tart, personally led an army of 200,000 to conquer in person, and Zhou Yu almost calculated all the routes of Yelu Tart, set up ambushes seven times, fought seven times, and ate Yelu Tartlie's seven vanguards in a row, beheading a total of 10,000.

Now, Yelu Tart Lie is about to go crazy, and he has gathered all the 200,000 troops together in one go, clenched into a fist, and walks slowly every day, and he has a headache when he hears that Zhou Yu's name is mentioned now.

After the little soldier introduced the miraculous achievements of their Tianxiong army, he said triumphantly: "Empress Dowager, Commander Zhou asked the little one to inform the Empress Dowager that now Yelu Tartlie's 200,000 army is in one place, and he has no way to say it, but if he delays time, he is confident that he can drag on for another ten days and a half months, so that you can rest assured that you can attack Jinyang City, hehe." It's just that now it seems that it is no longer needed. ”
