Chapter 19: King Zuoxian
King Zuo Xian should have 70,000 or 80,000 horses, and it seems that they may have known that Jiang Hexing's advance was about to intercept or find a place to ambush, and they were accidentally beaten to pieces by the forward regiment. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Although the forward regiment can repel them, it is almost impossible to completely annihilate them, even if the knife is broken, how many people can be cut?
Wu Kui analyzed and predicted the battle situation and sent it to Jiang Hexing, and Jiang Hexing's army had about 5 days of travel after Wu Kui's army, and the road was unimpeded.
Seeing the battle report sent by Wu Kui first, as well as the analysis of the battle situation sent later, Jiang Hexing convened all the generals to analyze where the current position of Zuo Xianwang's army is, and how can it be annihilated in one step.
Everyone expects that King Zuo Xian should have an army of about 100,000, and it should be near the Wukui Forward Regiment, and now that he suffers such a big loss, it is estimated that he will not dare to move the Forward Regiment for the time being, and it is best to surround them and annihilate them in one fell swoop.
Jiang Hexing thought about it, he came over this time is the territory of King Zuoxian, the east of the Huns is controlled by King Zuoxian, if the entire Huns mobilize heavy troops, it will take a long time to prepare, now many soldiers and horses should still be in the border county, and they can be regarded as directly attacking their key points when the enemy's strength is weak.
Jiang He is about to come up with his own ideas, first mobilize his own heavy troops, focus on solving the Zuoxian King first, and after solving the problem, build a city on the spot, just near the Wolf Juxu Mountain, like a nail firmly rooted in the key point of the Xiongnu. After the city is built, he threatens Shan Yuting at any time, and if Shan Yuruo mobilizes heavy troops to attack the city, then only greater losses await him.
All the generals unanimously agreed to attack the heavy troops of King Zuo Xian first, and then build the city, so that they could firmly establish a stronghold here, and food, weapons, and supplies would not be a problem, and they could fight as much as they wanted in the future.
Jiang Hexing sent people to give orders to Ma Yuan and Li Xiaoquan respectively to speed up the march and march to Wolf Juxu Mountain as soon as possible. At the same time, let your own team move faster.
Six days later, Wu Kui's army has arrived at the station of the forward regiment, and now the station has been 30 miles away from the battlefield, not for anything else, the smell is unbearable, mosquitoes and flies smell all day long, the flying eagles in the sky, the wolves on the ground, all come to forage, especially at night, there are wolves all around, the soldiers are not afraid, but there is no need to compete with these beasts.
Gubei retreated 30 miles and camped at the edge of the Gonglu water. When they saw Wu Kui's army arrive, they were extremely excited. Wu Kui first feasted the soldiers of the whole regiment, and in the past few days, they had probably eaten enough dry food, and when they saw fresh ingredients, rice and noodles, they were even happier than winning the battle.
As soon as Wu Kui arrived, he first sent spies to investigate the situation of King Zuo Xian, and considered the next step, how to stabilize King Zuo Xian first, prevent him from escaping, and then wait for several armies to arrive and annihilate them in one fell swoop.
There were unforeseen storms and clouds in the sky, and sure enough, the day after Wu Kui arrived, it rained heavily on the grassland. The river suddenly became very wide, and Wu Kui had no way to enter the army, so he had to wait for the weather to improve, but the spies were still sent out.
Because they were encamped by the river, and the river flowed into the camp. Wu Kui had no choice but to let everyone take advantage of the heavy rain to re-camp and move to the high slopes to the north.
After five days, the rain gradually became lighter, the ground was still slippery, and all the sailboats carrying the army's food and grass were next to Wu Kui's camp. And the army of the river was still in the rain, trudging forward.
Wu Kui smiled bitterly, arranged the ship, and quietly waited for news from all parties.
But it is also strange that for several days, the spies did not reply with any news.
After another two days, the weather cleared, and spies came back one after another, but there was no sign of the Hun brigade.
An information notice sent by Jiang Hexing made Wu Kui suddenly realize.
Some time ago, the men and horses encountered by the forward regiment were the troops of General Zuo under King Zuo Xian, and some other horses, a total of about 30,000 people. They are not in the north of Gonglu Shui, but about 200 miles south of Gonglu Shui, King Zuo Xian mobilized his troops there, and it is also the royal court of King Zuo Xian, and now because Shan Yu does not like the title of King Zuo Xian, it is called "Hu Yu", so it is also called Hu Yuting.
Wu Kui thought that these Huns were quite cunning, quietly crossed the river, let go of the men and horses in the south of Gonglushui, and only hit the north, and he also sent people to the west and north to investigate, but he didn't expect to run more to the south, fortunately, there were many people from the Wang faction, and the battlefield news was comprehensive.
Wu Kui ordered on the same day that all the troops should be moved to the high ground on the south bank of the river, and the soldiers on the south bank of the river and the north bank of the river would gather together to prepare for a big battle.
The busy transfer of the day began, first set up pontoon bridges, one was not enough, in one breath with boats to build five pontoon bridges, people, horses, vehicles, weapons, wounded, little by little transferred to the south bank, busy for a whole day, seeing that the sky was almost dark, the ground was full of messy things, the camp tent had not yet come and had time to tie up, carts, horses, mixed together, transporting dry food, and transporting weapons were also placed together.
Look at the empty meadow people, there are a bunch of people in the east and a gang in the west, there are carts in front of them, there are horses tied to them, and there are people carrying the wounded, who have just come from the bridge, and they really can't find a clean place to settle, and they are shouting loudly.
Wu Kui stood in front of the tent he had just set up, frowning, looking at the chaotic meadow.
The afterglow of the setting sun shone on the grass, pulling the shadows of the people and horses slender and slender. After a while, the sun was completely out of sight, and the stars opened their eyes and looked down on the people in the meadow. Wu Kui's mind suddenly remembered Jiang Hexing's explanation: "Pay special attention to the night of the full moon, which is usually the time when the Huns attack. ”
Wu Kui shook his spirit, turned around and asked his soldiers, what day is today, and the soldiers told him that on April 15, Wu Kui immediately sent his soldiers to ride fast horses, passed down orders, and organized them into battle formations to prevent sneak attacks.
The soldiers beat their horses and ran away, and Wu Kui lay on the grass and listened. Turned around and entered the camp tent, came out already neatly dressed, holding his own point steel gun, a personal soldier pulled the big black horse, Wu Kuifei got on the horse, and shouted: "Prepare to fight!" ”
Wu Kui rode his horse to a small hillside outside the camp tent and watched the movement in the distance from afar. It was getting dark, and the moon was already above the eastern sky, and a faint glow was shining on the grass.
Behind Wu Kui, gradually the military horses were gathering, and the division commander kept coming to report, Wu Kui just turned around and looked, nodded, and asked them to get ready.
There were also officers who went up the hillside, looking south, endless meadows, and in the distance it was dark, and they didn't know what the commander was looking at. After watching it for a while, they all felt bored, and they all went down the hill one after another to organize their teams.
