Chapter 443: Liu Gaozhi's Unintentional Northern Expedition

Captain Tao, you will report what happened today to General Liu and the generals!

As soon as Qin Feng's words fell, Tao Kan said that today he led his soldiers and horses to inspect, not wanting to encounter a large number of enemy troops, and then fell into a heavy siege, when he would definitely die, the soldiers of the Qin army fell from the sky, killed thousands of enemy soldiers, and saved himself and the soldiers of Beifu under his command.

After Tao Kan finished speaking, the whole tent was silent at first, and the silence was a little terrifying. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info Liu Gaozhi, the general of the Beifu soldiers, and dozens of generals of the Beifu soldiers, looked at Qin Feng in front of him, looked at Sima Zhi, Li Tie and other generals of the Qin army, with an incredible face!

This silence did not last long, except for Liu Gaozhi, the main general of the Beifu army, the rest of the generals of the Beifu army whispered about it!

"How is this possible? How can there be such a magical archery in the world? It can shoot arrows dozens of feet away, and it hits every hundred! If you want to say this kind of archery, it's easy to say that it is one or two people, but Tao Kan just said that the five thousand soldiers of the Qin army, under the fire of ten thousand arrows, all shot those dogs, and he and the hundreds of soldiers under his command, none of them were injured! How is this possible? How is this possible? ”

"Yes! When pigs fly! There is also Tao Kan who said that the Qin army fought with thousands of enemy troops, and after the enemy army was completely annihilated, there was no casualty among the soldiers of the Qin army, and the battle loss ratio was 3,000 to zero, which is too exaggerated! Could it be that those dogs stood still, waiting for the Qin soldiers to come and cut off their heads? ”

Although these discussions are almost like whispers, in this small tent, nearly 100 people are talking in a whisper, and the bursts of sound are not much different from tearing their throats and shouting loudly!

Seeing that the soldiers of Beifu didn't believe that the Qin army was so powerful, Sima Zhi and Li Tie's faces became iron-blue, and they didn't agree with each other, so they went up to tear and fight! And Qin Feng listened to these comments of the soldiers and generals of the Northern Mansion, but he only smiled slightly, and he couldn't see the slightest hint of joy and anger at all!

These generals of the Beifu army don't believe that the Qin army is so powerful, that is, they don't believe everything Tao Kan said, that is, they are saying that Tao Kan is lying and telling the truth! At this time, the generals of the Qin army had a bad attack for a while, but Tao Kan saw that everyone didn't believe him, and his eyes were already angry and angry, only to see him stand up and roar loudly: "I, Tao Kan, guarantee with my own life, with the lives of the two hundred and seventy-nine brothers who survived today, every word I just said is not a lie!" ”

Speaking of this, Tao Kan left the table and knelt down on one knee towards Liu Gaozhi, and said in a deep voice: "General Liu, what the last general said just now, there is no lie, if the general doesn't believe it, the corpses of the three thousand dogs are still lying thirty miles away, the general can send someone to check, look at the wounds on their bodies, see if there are any corpses of Qin army soldiers where, as long as the general sends someone to check, you will know that what the last general just said, there is no exaggeration!" ”

"If the last general has even a little exaggeration, please also ask the general to cut off the heads of the last general, and cut off the heads of the two hundred and seventy-nine brothers who survived today, so as to correct the military law of our army!"

As soon as Tao Kan said this, Liu Gaozhi sneered in his heart, you Tao Kan, for the sake of the reputation of the Qin army, he did not hesitate to gamble with himself and the lives of the soldiers under his command, what a big deal! But don't forget, you are not a soldier of the Qin Army, your identity at this moment is still my Beifu military captain, don't sit crookedly!

You asked the general to send someone to inspect the battlefield, isn't that to tell everyone clearly, I don't believe what you say, I don't believe that the Qin army's strong bow and crossbow are the best in the world, and I don't believe that the Qin army's soldiers are fighting against the sky!

In this way, wouldn't the general have offended the Qin army and His Royal Highness the King of Qin! Tao Kan, Tao Kan, don't say that you are telling the truth, even if what you say is all bragging, you will be true to what you say!

Thinking of this, Liu Gaozhi laughed: "The Qin army's strong bow and crossbow are the best in the world, and the combat power of the Qin army's soldiers is invincible, these generals have already heard of it!" Listening to what Captain Tao said today, I realized that those so-called rumors not only did not exaggerate, but had reservations, and did not express the respectability and admirability of the soldiers of the Qin army! ”

Liu Gaozhi's words are extremely high-sounding, and there is room for it! not only praised Qin Jun a lot, but also showed that he didn't see it with his own eyes, everything was just hearing some rumors and what Tao Kan said just now! Even if Qin Jun is not worthy of his name in the future, he will not take the slightest responsibility!

As for whether he will privately send someone to check the battlefield situation and verify Tao Kan's words in the name of cleaning the battlefield and burying the corpse, then only Liu Gaozhi himself and God know!

Seeing that Tao Kan did not hesitate to fight with his life for the sake of Qin Jun's statement, Qin Feng looked at Tao Kan's eyes, and he was a little more cordial! And Sima Zhi and Li Tie and other generals of the Qin army, if it weren't for the fact that there were so many generals of the Beifu army on the side in this big tent, I am afraid that they would have rushed over and hooked up with Tao Kan, and the eldest brother and the younger brother would eat meat and drink a lot of wine!

Tao Kan used his own life and the lives of more than 200 brothers under his command to guarantee that what he said was absolutely true! Dozens of Beifu generals in the big tent, although they felt that this matter was incredible, but they couldn't help but believe it!

As Tao Kan said, if he said a lie, he only needed to send someone to the battlefield to check it, and the matter would be revealed! If Tao Kan said big things, then he would never dare to gamble with his own head and the lives of his more than 200 Paoze brothers!

Thinking of this, the generals of the Beifu Army, who had been talking a lot, fell into a terrible silence again. It's just that this silence doesn't feel incredible, it's not that it feels impossible! Instead, I was shocked by Tao Kan's words, by the Qin army's such anti-heaven combat power and appalling achievements, and I didn't know what to say!

Five thousand soldiers of the Qin army fired arrows together dozens of zhang away, and they didn't hurt a single soldier of Beifu who was fighting in one place! 5,000 soldiers of the Qin army and 3,000 Hu people fought head-on, killing them all, and the soldiers of the Qin army did not have a single casualty!

What a battle against the sky, what an extraordinary archery skill, and this is just five thousand Qin soldiers! The Qin army has a total of 100,000 troops, and the 5,000 Qin army is so powerful, if it is 100,000 Qin army soldiers who drive to this front line of the river together, not to mention the alien Hulu entrenched in the north, looking at the whole world, who will be the opponent of the Qin army? From this point of view, the Qin army's combat power is invincible in the world, and it is not a boast!

Just now, these generals of the Beifu soldiers didn't believe what Tao Kan said, and they didn't believe that the Qin army was really so powerful! But at this moment, they are overkill one by one, imagining the Qin army too strong and too rebellious!

What Tao Kan said just now is indeed true, but this is only the combat power of the five thousand Qin soldiers under Qin Feng's command, and it does not mean that the 100,000 soldiers of the Qin army have such extraordinary archery skills and such a fighting spirit against the sky!

You must know that the five thousand Qin troops led by Qin Feng are not ordinary Qin army soldiers. Although the Qin army had a large army of 50,000, it was divided into heavy cavalry, light cavalry, heavy armored soldiers, ordinary soldiers, crossbowmen and so on.

And the 5,000 Qin troops led by Qin Feng are the soldiers and horses directly under the Tiance Battalion and the Huben Battalion, both of which are elite brigades in the Qin army. What's more, among the five thousand iron horsemen, there are also four hundred Iron Eagle swordsmen, and the Iron Eagle swordsmen are the elite of the Qin army, the trump card of the trump cards.

Therefore, Qin Feng, the five thousand soldiers of the Qin army, is indeed extraordinary in archery and has extraordinary combat power, but the 100,000 soldiers of the Qin army are not like this! Therefore, these generals of the Beifu Army think too strongly!

After this episode, those generals of the Beifu soldiers also came to their senses one by one, but the eyes they looked at the generals of the Qin army, especially at Sima Zhi and Li Tie, but they didn't have the kind of casualness just now, replaced by heartfelt respect and jealousy from the heart!

Seeing that everyone was no longer entangled in this matter, Qin Feng looked at Liu Gaozhi, the main general of the Beifu Army, and said with a slight smile: "General Liu, this king has just arrived, you still want to talk about the battle situation here in Huishui, probably talk to this king!" ”

As soon as Qin Feng's words fell, Liu Gaozhi stood up and said respectfully: "His Royal Highness King Qin, our army and the Hu people and horses have been facing each other for more than two months on the front line of the river!" Previously, they were only tens of thousands of cavalry, but then gradually increased their troops, and the day before yesterday, according to the report of the sentry scouts, the total number of their soldiers and horses was no less than 600,000! Of the more than 600,000 horses, there are about 130,000 or 40,000 cavalry, and the rest of the soldiers and horses are all pawns! ”

Because the Hu regime in the north is known as Great Qin, and Qin Feng and the soldiers of the Qin army are all descendants of the Qin people, Liu Gaozhi deliberately concealed the name of the Hu people when he reported the battle situation, but only called Hu Ren or Hu Dog, so as not to cause dissatisfaction among Qin Feng and the generals of the Qin army!

"Your Highness, the Hu soldiers and horses confronted our army on both sides of the river before, and then their soldiers and horses increased day by day, and there are only more than 70,000 soldiers in my northern mansion, if they are stationed along the front line of the river, it is inevitable to take care of one or the other!"

"What's even more worrying is that seeing that our army is very well defended, if Fu Jian abandons here, drives hundreds of miles away with the army, detours back to the flank of our army, and then crosses the river to the south, then Jiangzhou and Jingzhou will be in danger!"

"Once the enemy crosses the river from other places and goes south, more than 70,000 soldiers and horses in my Beifu military district will go to intercept it, once the fortifications here are lost, let alone stop the Hu people's iron cavalry, it will be more than 70,000 soldiers and horses in Beifu, as long as they will be lost!"

"So the last general thought about it, instead of letting them cross the river south from other places and threaten the southern states and counties, it is better to let them cross the river from here, and our army will stick to the fortress, like a nail, and firmly wedge these Hu soldiers and horses around the fortress, so that they can neither rest assured and bold to go south, but also unable to take our army's fortress!"

"In this way, we dragged him for a few months, and when their morale was low, our army would go out of the city to attack and kill them again, and we would definitely be able to defeat these Hu soldiers and horses! At that time, the enemy chieftain Fu Jian's division was in vain, wasting money and food in vain, so he could only retire in disgrace! ”

After Liu Gaozhi finished his tirade, Qin Feng kept knocking on the table with his knuckles, bowing his head and thinking about Liu Gaozhi's words, his face was as calm as water, and he couldn't see the slightest fluctuation!

Liu Gaozhi, as far as Qin Feng knows, although his character is inferior and he has no integrity at all, and he has changed his court three times and turned his back on his master, but as a commander of the army, his ability is indeed first-class, otherwise he would not become one of the famous generals of the Eastern Jin Dynasty!

In particular, his strategic view of the overall situation was unique in the world at that time! It's a pity that this person's personal morality is at a loss, and his political sensitivity is too poor, otherwise, he will definitely be able to live for a hundred years, and no matter how bad he is, he will not be infamous through the ages!

Not to mention anything else, just based on what Liu Gaozhi just said, purely in terms of defensive operations, it can be called a stroke of genius! In particular, the strategic layout of taking the initiative to retreat, letting Hu people cross the river, and exchanging space for time is simply bold and imaginative!

Although Liu Gaozhi's strategic deployment is wonderful, it is not what Qin Feng wants! Liu Gaozhi just wanted to drag down the Hu people's soldiers and horses, so that they had to take the initiative to retreat! And Qin Feng led the army to the Northern Expedition this time, what he wanted was to eliminate these hundreds of thousands of alien Hulu, and then further move north, drive out the Hu people entrenched in the north, recover Luoyang, Chang'an and the two capitals, and then recover the entire Central Plains, and create a Chinese dynasty in the Weijia Sea!

Thinking of this, Qin Feng asked in a deep voice: "General Liu, if you want to drag down the 600,000 soldiers and horses of the Hu people, this fortress can naturally be relied on!" But I don't know if the food and grass in the city will be enough for the army for several months? ”

Qin Feng's words are exactly the point of asking! You must know that once the enemy army besieges this fortress, if it cannot be attacked for a long time, the enemy army will inevitably besiege this city, so that the soldiers and civilians in the city will be starved of water and food! At that time, the outside of the city was full of Hu soldiers and horses, and the fortress was a lonely city, without any supplies from the imperial court. If the food stored in the city is not enough for the army for several months, then Liu Gaozhi's wonderful strategy to exhaust the enemy can only be talked about on paper, and it is too big to be right!

Seeing Qin Feng ask this, Liu Gaozhi's eyes suddenly lit up, it seems that His Royal Highness the King of Qin is really a deep military strategy, and he can see the key to this battle at a glance!

"Haha! Your Highness, don't worry! The food stored in the city is enough for the army to eat for half a year, and there are countless wells in the city, so there is no need to worry about those dogs cutting off the water source of our army! ”

After Liu Gaozhi said this, he looked at Qin Feng with a straight glare, only waiting for Qin Feng to praise loudly, saying that he had really made complete preparations, and this battle would definitely be won!

What Liu Gaozhi didn't expect was that Qin Feng not only did not praise himself, but smiled coldly: "Looking at General Liu's posture of digging deep holes and accumulating grain, is he planning to hold on to this city and wait for the enemy army to retreat?" ”

"What do you mean, Your Highness?" Hearing Qin Feng's words, Liu Gaozhi was shocked, thinking to himself what Qin Feng meant by this!

"Do you know that the Son of Heaven asked this king to lead the army here, not to help you hold this city, not to let the Hu people retreat! It is to raise troops for the Northern Expedition, recover the two capitals, recover the Central Plains, recover China, and rebuild China! ”

Speaking of this, Qin Feng stood up suddenly, looked at Liu Gaozhi and asked sharply: "General Liu, with your tired strategy, can you destroy the 600,000 Hu soldiers and horses in front of you?" Can you recover the two capitals and the Central Plains? Can China be restored and China rebuilt? ”
