Chapter 141: Megatron Liaodong
Although the coalition forces were dispersed, Yuwenxun Nickyan was still confident that he would break Xi'anping. Because his subordinates were all cavalry, he had no choice but to face Xi'anping, who had a tall city wall, and in desperation, he sent someone to send a letter of challenge to Wei Shuo in the city.
The tone in the letter was full of provocation and contempt for Wei Shuo: I heard that Captain Wei is a hero, and his subordinates are all tigers, I don't know if I have the courage to compete with the warriors of my Yuwen tribe?
After reading Yuwen Xun's challenge book, the corners of Wei Shuo's mouth showed a hint of mockery, no wonder the Yuwen tribe in history would be defeated by Murong Diao. Compared with Murong Diao, Yuwen Xun Nick Yan is far inferior in terms of mind, means, and ability!
"Hehe, I didn't expect Yuwen Dadan to be such a child's play, what did he think of fighting? Still challenging the book? Joke! Is the war a brawl between horsemen?! Wei really didn't expect that the opportunity to break the enemy would be sent by himself, it seems that God is helping us! ”
"Ahh Hearing Wei Shuo's jokes, everyone present burst into laughter, and the sense of urgency brought about by the pressure of the army suddenly dissipated a lot. Many people feel that the tens of thousands of Xianbei cavalry outside the city are actually nothing to fear.
Wei Shuo took the opportunity to agitate: "Everyone, don't look at the Xianbei cavalry outside the city as many as ants, in fact, Yuwen Xun's army is a rabble, and there is no combat effectiveness at all. Tomorrow we will teach the Xianbei people a good lesson, let them see what war is, you just need to do your best to fight, there is nothing to fear. ”
Changshi Pei Wei was also full of confidence: "It seems that the Yuwen clan has a wide range of soldiers, and it is menacing!" In fact, although the enemy is outnumbered, the army has no orders and no battle formations, so there is no need to be afraid. Tomorrow, our army only needs to secretly send a group of elite surprise troops, take advantage of the enemy's appointment with us to fight, attack them unprepared, and will definitely win the battle. ”
Wei Shuo thought so, and immediately sent Speedu and Notomi as the vanguard, leading 5,000 infantry and cavalry to meet the enemy. In addition, he secretly asked Wang Xiang to lead 3,000 elite cavalry to sneak out of the city in the dark, just waiting for the opportunity to smash the enemy camp as soon as the opportunity came tomorrow.
Knowing that Wei Shuo accepted the challenge, Yuwenxun was overjoyed, he didn't take Wei Shuo seriously because he had a strong army, and he didn't take any precautions. Early the next morning, the Xianbei people still got up, ate, and fed the horses according to their previous habits, without a trace of the tension before the big war.
Even Dadan Yu Wenxun Nick Yan only got up when the time of the battle was approaching, and at this time, the Jin army in the city had already taken up a position under the command of the officers. Yuwenxun Nick Yan didn't pay attention to the Jin army's arrangement at all, he thought that as long as his cavalry attacked, the Jin army on the opposite side would collapse without a fight.
It's a pity that Yuwen Xun Nick Yan completely underestimated Wei Shuo's adaptability, standing on the head of the city and looking at the chaotic enemy camp outside the city, Wei Shuo was overjoyed, and regardless of the fact that the agreed time had not yet come, he only waved the command flag with his big hand, and the Jin army, which had already lined up in formation, immediately killed the unsuspecting Xianbei people.
It wasn't until the Jin army was in front of the battle that Xianbei thought of rushing to the battle. As soon as the Jin army on this side clashed with Yuwenxun's troops, the cavalry led by Wang Xiang rushed into the enemy camp with lightning speed and set fire everywhere. For a while, the Yuwen clan's army was in chaos, and many people didn't know what was going on, why did it suddenly catch fire on all sides?
In a hurry, no one knew what to do, so they had to flee for their lives. Yuwen Xunyan, who had just gotten up, looked at his own camp in flames, and couldn't help but be dumbfounded, he never thought that the Yuwen tribe, which had an advantage before, would fail before he could start fighting his tens of thousands of troops!
Although the Xianbei cavalry is brave and good at fighting, in the face of an avalanche-like situation, they cannot recover their decline no matter what. The chaotic situation on the battlefield suddenly magnified the shortcomings of the Hu cavalry's lack of discipline, and a large number of Xianbei cavalry ignored the reprimands from officers at all levels, and only scattered and fled for their lives.
Yuwen begged the turtle to take hundreds of guards to protect his father Yuwenxun and fled in embarrassment, until now their father and son didn't understand why the army collapsed inexplicably.
Yu Wenxun crouched on the horse's back and fled for his life, gritting his teeth and muttering in his mouth: "The Jin people are cunning! I'm not convinced! Jin people don't obey the rules, I don't accept it! ”
If Wei Shuo heard Yuwenxun's complaints, he would definitely scoff, big brother is fighting! In the face of a war where either you die or I live, where is there room for a little play? War is meant to be unscrupulous, and how can there be any credibility in dealing with the enemy?!
Besides, Wei Shuo's strength is far inferior to the enemy, how can he defeat the enemy if he doesn't play some tricks? If you want to blame, you can only blame Yu Wenxun for being too stupid, too stupid and too stupid, obviously occupying a good situation, but choosing to make an appointment with the opponent. Let's make an appointment to fight, obviously it is a time set by myself, but I got up late, giving Wei Shuo a chance!
"My lord, why do I feel that this victory is a little inexplicable?" Looking at the Xianbei people who had been in chaos, Lu Chang, Yang Tan, Han Shou and others felt a little incredible standing beside Wei Shuo.
To be honest, don't say that other people have doubts, even Wei Shuo himself can't believe that everything that is happening in front of him is true! He just seized the fleeting fighter plane, but he didn't expect to achieve great results. Not only did they defeat 50,000 Xianbei cavalry in the first battle, but they also captured about 20,000 Xianbei people.
Wei Shuo scratched his head and smiled: "Maybe we have really been protected by God, otherwise how can we explain everything that is happening in front of us?" ”
This was Wei Shuo's joking, but they didn't think that other people would take it seriously, they couldn't help but be a little stunned when they looked at the charismatic Wei Shuo, could it be that this lord of his own family is really the master of destiny?
Seeing that the black pressed a Xianbei captive, the corners of his mouth were grinning to the root of his ears, and now he would no longer worry about the lack of youth. With these 20,000 strong Xianbei people, the population pressure caused by the construction of Lushun will be greatly alleviated.
With a smile, he smiled and said to the Jin army who was guarding the captives: "You guys work harder and send all these Goguryeo people to Lushun." ”
"The county order is slow!" Unexpectedly, the head of the cavalry division who had just returned from chasing the enemy army stopped him, only to see Speedu smile and said: "The county order of the Yu clan, these Xianbei people are all natural riders, and it is a bit of a waste to send them all to do coolies, please let you select some suitable people from among them and add that among our cavalry, it is not too late to send the rest to Lushun!" ”
"How many are you going to pick to add to the cavalry? If there are too many people, I won't say yes! The Xiake said with a wary expression.
"Hehe, the county order is filtered, and I only plan to select three thousand riders. According to the plan of the lord, after this battle, our army will completely occupy the entire Liaodong. In order to defend the territory in the future, the entire cavalry will be expanded to five compartments, with a total strength of about 15,000. ”
"These Xianbei people who have been selected and left behind will be the backbone of the expanded cavalry in the future!"
After the reorganization, digestion, and absorption of the Karasuma people, Wei Shuo and his subordinate Wu formed their own unique model for the naturalized Hu people. First of all, Wei Shuo positioned the naturalized and absorbed Hu people as the low-level Hu people, and all the Hu nobles and elders were not within the scope of his naturalization.
This distinguishes him from the previous Central Plains Dynasty's approach to the Hu people, which had placed the naturalization of the Hu people on the upper rulers of the Hu people, and ignored the Hu people who occupied the majority. In fact, there are also a large number of Hu people who have a difficult life within the Hu people, and this part is very easy to win over.
Secondly, once the target of naturalization was determined, Wei Shuo not only completely separated all the Hu people, but also tried his best to promote Han culture among the Hu people, encouraging the Hu people to learn Chinese and give Han names.
The result of the second battle of Xi'an Ping was beyond the expectations of many people, 50,000 Yuwen cavalry were annihilated, Yuwen Xun Yan luckily picked up a life, and fled back to the Yuwen tribe's lair with more than 10,000 remnants of the defeated generals. After the news reached Xiangping, Cui Yu was so frightened that his face was like dirt, and in desperation, he actually sent his nephew Cui Tao to Xi'an Ping to congratulate him!
After this battle, not only did Wei Shuo shock Liaodong, but also captured a large number of ordnance, grain and grass and war horses, which can be said to be a lot of capture. Looking at the mountains of materials, Han Shouxi of the Joint Logistics Division smiled, this was the biggest harvest he had since he took office as the head of the Joint Logistics Division, he was busy with statistics, and at the same time he had to discuss the division of the spoils with the people of the county guard.
