Chapter Thirty-Six: Military Orders Like Mountains (Six Watches for the First Order)
Santa's head was sent to LΓΌ Bu by a Hun trembling. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ info
Looking at the head of the Hun leader, Lu Bu grinned at the corners of his mouth, revealing two rows of white teeth, which frightened the Huns in front of him and sat on the ground.
"Don't be afraid, General Ben always counts when he speaks, and since he promised to spare your lives, he will never break his promise!" Lu Bu's voice had a suffocating sense of oppression, but in the ears of all the Huns, it was tantamount to the sound of heaven, and the originally tense nerves relaxed in an instant, and many Huns slid directly off the horseback and kowtowed to Lu Bu and begged for mercy.
"General Fei really lives up to his reputation, and today is really an eye-opener for Zaixia." The Yue Clan King and Han De came to Lu Bu's side and complimented them with a smile.
"Please also ask the clan king to hand over the Yue clan warriors to me for the time being, I need help in this next big battle." Lu Bu looked at the King of the Yue Clan.
The king of the Yue clan couldn't help but suffocate when he heard this, originally he wanted to see Lu Bu and the Huns kill each other, if Lu Bu failed or won a miserable victory, he could naturally shirk it, but he didn't expect Lu Bu to come directly to a hearty victory, facing Lu Bu's gaze, the king of the Yue clan only felt an unspeakable depression, and the words that came to his mouth were finally suffocated, and he nodded bitterly and said: "I hope the general will not forget the previous promise." β
"Don't worry." Lu Bu nodded, and asked Han De to follow the king of the clan to receive the Yue's soldiers and horses, and he himself came to the surrendered Huns.
Looking at the Huns who were on guard one by one, Lu Bu said indifferently: "What, do you want to use force with General Ben?" β
The military marquis who knew the Xiongnu language changed his face when he heard this, and he said Lu Bu's original words in the Xiongnu language sharply, and behind Lu Bu, the fierce eyes of more than 2,000 iron horsemen shot over, and the oppressive force of a moment made the atmosphere that had eased down instantly become depressed again.
A group of Huns looked at each other, and when the dragons were leaderless, these Huns were like a plate of scattered sand, and under the persecution of the Han army, they silently put down their weapons.
"Good." Lu Bu nodded with satisfaction, looked at these Huns, and said in a deep voice: "Now, since you have surrendered, then you are no longer the Huns, the main force of Jilu Village has been destroyed, I will attack Jilu Village, and your task is to help us open the city gate, is there a problem?" β
Under the translation of the military marquis, the face of a Xiongnu warrior suddenly became difficult to see, even if there is no national concept, but in the chicken deer village, their families live there, the war is together, the lives are devastated, the Huns do not believe in the saying of treating the people well, every time a city is breached, accompanied by bloody slaughter.
"Questions!?" Looking at the Huns with ugly faces, the military marquis shouted loudly.
Many Huns had a look of humiliation on their faces, asking them to help these invaders attack their homes and kill their families, and asked them if they had any questions?
"Tell them, reassure them that General Ben will not embarrass their families, as long as they help us open the city gates, they will be heroes, and their families will be rewarded." Looking at the Huns with unwilling faces, Lu Bu's tone eased and said to the military marquis beside him.
"Yes." The military marquis nodded and repeated Lu Bu's words, and the faces of these Huns finally eased a lot.
"My lord, the Yue Clan's men and horses have been assembled." Han De walked up, bowed down and said.
"Okay, march to Jilu Village, when the city is broken, the chickens and dogs will not stay!" Lu Bu nodded and snorted coldly.
"Lord, didn't you promise them just now......" Han De was slightly stunned and looked at Lu Bu suspiciously.
"There is a shortage of soldiers, and it is inevitable that there will be damage." Lu Bu said indifferently.
In the Xiongnu crowd, there are a few Huns whose faces changed when they heard the words, the Southern Xiongnu have been naturalized for many years, and there are naturally some people in the tribe who can understand Chinese, at this moment listening to such despicable remarks of the Han generals, several Huns tacitly lowered their heads, not letting their angry expressions be seen by these Han people.
"Let's go! Look at these Huns, don't let them run. Lu Bu didn't say much, waved his hand, and with two thousand Han cavalry, eight thousand Yue clan troops and hundreds of Huns, he marched in the direction of Jilu Village.
β¦β¦
Muma Slope, a tragic battle finally ended, Pang De stood on the gate, watching Han Sui's coalition army retreat like a tide, a few days, made Pang De lose a lot of weight, but between his eyebrows, there was a little more calm and bearing that he had never had in the past.
"General Pang." Li Ru walked up to the gate with the majestic sea, looking at Han Sui's army that had divided into several waves in the distance, and there was also a little melancholy between his eyebrows.
"Strategist." War is indeed a place to hone people, in a few days, under the huge pressure, Pang De has faintly had a bit of the demeanor of a general, seeing Li Ru coming up under the escort of the majestic sea, bowing his head slightly, seeing that there was no one around, he smiled bitterly: "Before this, the last general never thought that in the face of Han Sui's old thief's 100,000 army, he would be able to hold out." β
Hearing this, Li Ru nodded silently, looking at Pang De with a little appreciation in his eyes, before that, although he felt good, but when it came to commanding the army, in his opinion, it was more suitable for Ma Chao, but unfortunately, Ma Chao was too easy to get angry in the face of Han Sui, which was definitely not the emotion that a commander should have, so he chose to acquiesce to Lu Bu using Pang De instead of Ma Chao, and now it seems that Lu Bu has some unusual skills in knowing and employing people.
"The general's ability is obvious to all, there is no need to be humble!" Li Ru pressed his hands on the railing of the gate, looked at the military camp in the distance, and a trace of worry flashed in his eyes: "But I don't know what conditions Han Sui agreed to the Huns, and let the Huns use their lives so much. β
"Military division, the casualties of our soldiers have been huge these days, if we continue like this, I am afraid it will be difficult for us to hold on any longer, why don't we retreat to Jixian and Linjing, and refuse to defend the city?" Pound frowned.
The defense of the camp is naturally not as good as the city, although Lu Bu has long been prepared for a decisive battle with Han Sui here, and the camp is quite strong, but when it comes to defense, it is not as good as the city after all.
"You can't go back!" Shaking his head, Li Ru smiled bitterly: "Once we give up Mumapo, Han Sui can drive straight in, not to mention Linjing, Jixian and other places, Jincheng, Longxi, Han Sui has been operating for many years, once Han Sui appears, it will inevitably cause turmoil in the city, the lord finally created the current situation, Han Sui is trapped in Wuwei, once we retreat, these will be destroyed, Han Sui will also get out of the predicament, regain the initiative, Xiliang Rebellion, I don't know when it will be calmed." β
Pound couldn't help but be silent when he heard this, having said that, he couldn't last long if he continued to fight like this.
"General rest assured." Li Ru turned his head to look at Pang De and said with a smile: "Han Sui's army is short of food, and it can't be supported for too long, and the lord's side, there must be news soon, the longer we support here, the less pressure the lord's side will be." β
Pang De nodded with a wry smile, according to the detailed investigation, this time the Southern Xiongnu invaded, and all the five Huns were dispatched, and now the number of people appearing on the battlefield is obviously different from the intelligence, you know, Lu Bu only took away 5,000 soldiers and horses, and it is rare to be able to contain so many Huns, and now Pang De only hopes to support Han Sui until the grain and grass are exhausted, as for Lu Bu's side, Pang De does not have expectations, after all, compared to Han Sui's huge forces, Lu Bu's 5,000 cavalry is too few, and it is not enough to control the situation of the war.
"That's right, military advisor, the major general ......" Pang De looked at Li Ru and opened his mouth, but was stopped by Li Ru.
"The general should know that the military order is like a mountain, and the general cares about the feelings of the past, which is understandable, but has the general ever thought about how to deal with the soldiers who went out with the horses that day?" Li Ru said in a deep voice.
"Tak understands." Pang De sighed, Ma Chao led the army to go out that day, and broke the vanguard army of the Huns in one fell swoop, but then he ignored the sound of gold in the village, and led the crowd to pursue the remnants of the Huns, and as a result, he was ambushed by Han Sui, 5,000 soldiers, and less than 1,000 people came back alive.
"General Meng Qi's plight is also very sympathetic to Xia." Looking at Pang De, Li Ru said quietly: "But the general should not be angry and raise troops, as the chief general of an army, he is the success or failure of an army, how can he mix his personal feelings with the army?" This is also the reason why the lord chose the general instead of General Meng Qi at that time. β
Seeing Pang De nodding with a wry smile, Li Ru turned his head to look in the direction of Han Sui's camp, he didn't say all the words, and blamed Ma Chao heavily, not only because he brought losses to the army, but more importantly, Ma Chao's prestige in the Xiliang Army was too great, Lu Bu reused Pang De, although it was because of his personality, but it was also just a good way to establish Pang De's prestige in the army, thus suppressing Ma Chao.
After a few days of observation, compared with Ma Chao, Li Ru is actually more optimistic about Pound in his heart, not only can he fight, he has a strategy, but more importantly, he is loyal, Lu Bu has the grace of knowing Pound, and Pound also has a sense of gratitude, if Ma Chao may be instigated to rebel against Lu Bu in the future, Pound, a general, is unlikely to betray.
Ma Chao is too rebellious, when Lu Bu is there, it is enough to suppress it, but if Lu Bu leaves, just like this time, he will not obey the military order in the first battle, although it is excusable, but this kind of sign must not be tolerated.
Li Ru didn't know if Lu Bu had such thoughts and concerns, but as a strategist, he had to make plans for the future and help Pang De establish enough prestige in the army, and even if Lu Bu could suppress Ma Chao and make Ma Chao not rebellious, Pang De, a future general, should also be trained well.
"Woo~Woo~"
The horn sounded again, the two looked at each other at the same time, after a short repair, Han Sui launched an offensive against the camp again, Pang De took a deep breath, picked up the big knife by his side and said in a deep voice: "The soldiers are fierce and dangerous, the military division will return, and wait for a certain enemy to be broken!" β
Li Ru retreated as he said, and an offensive and defensive battle kicked off again. (To be continued.) )
