Chapter 407: The military situation is like fire
At a time when the situation in the Central Plains is about to change greatly, with the rebellion of Zhuhu in the northwest in Guanzhong, the Liaodong Army will face a severe test.
Juquzhi, the king of Guishan, gathered more than 60,000 Hu cavalry troops near Yongxian, and was complacent, planning to take the initiative to seize Yumei in the northwest of Yongxian. In order to remove the threat from the northwest of Yongxian, and at the same time expand the sphere of influence of the Di people.
"Drive! Sigh~~! ”
"Report!"
"Back to the king, the first two miles is Huangshui, and its upstream is not far from Yumei, and there are about 20,000 Liaodong troops in the city at present, and the lord will be Beigong Chun."
Juquzhi rode on the sturdy horse, shook the cloak on his back, raised his whip and pointed to the northwest, and casually ordered: "Continue to closely monitor the garrison in Yumei City, the army will immediately cross the river and go north, after breaking through Yumei and capturing Beigong Chun, I will feast you in Yumei City!" ”
"King, now that my 60,000 cavalry troops are approaching Yumei, how can a mere 20,000 Liaodong soldiers be the king's opponent?!"
Under the flattery of the people below, Ju Quzhi was very useful, he never thought that raising troops to resist Liaodong would be so smooth, only a few days of effort, the men and horses under his command from less than 10,000 at the beginning, expanded to 60,000 troops, let him understand what it means to look at the scenery.
"As long as Yumei and Wangxian are successfully taken, the entire northwest of Fufeng County will be just around the corner!"
Ju Quzhi raised his head, looked at the endless plains around him, and said heroically: "Liaodong is not benevolent, and the people are indignant. Besides, why can this great river and mountain only be stolen by the Jin people? I can also break through a foundation. ”
"What Da Shan Yu said is that the world is originally the only one who is virtuous! Now Liaodong is perverse, and Da Danyu is just Shuntian in response to the people to send troops to recruit Liaodong! ”
"Well, this Dan Yu is going to personally catch General Zhenbei and ask him in person, why do you want to treat me and other Hu people so harshly!"
……
At this time, it was the spring of the sixth year of Jianxing, the long harsh winter had just passed, the footsteps of spring were gradually approaching, and there was a breath of spring everywhere, and the air seemed to be filled with the fragrance of flowers.
The Guanzhong Plain has been paved with a thick layer of grass, and under the trampling of tens of thousands of war horses, the green blades of grass are still standing up like a tenacious fighter.
On the west bank of the river, five scouts were resting and eating dry food in the dense forest by the river, and these scouts were wearing standard paper armor, and outsiders could recognize this as the famous Liaodong Xiang Army at a glance.
"Wu Chang, did you say that the Hu people would come?" A young scout, gasping for breath, asked the captain beside him.
Wu Chang took a sip of water and muttered to himself, "Who knows? At present, Hu is arrogant, and he heard that all the Di people in Guanzhong have rebelled, and more than 100,000 cavalry troops have gathered in Yongqin and Qin, and there are more than 60,000 troops near Yongxian alone. ”
"Alas! This Hu man who killed a thousand knives is really inexhaustible! As soon as there is a stir, they will rebel. and the king of Nanyang also followed the blind coaxing, shamelessly canonizing the rebellious Hu clan. ”
"Hee-hee! No matter how powerful the Hu people are, where is my opponent of the Liaodong Army? ”
"Hehe, don't underestimate the Hu people, the combat effectiveness of the Hu cavalry is still very strong, and the number of Hu cavalry far exceeds the Yumei garrison, so you must not be careless."
"Okay, enough rest, hurry up and get on the horse, and everyone will go around again."
"Okay!" Soon the scouts were packed up and rode away.
On the ground that had just fallen after the spring rain, there were several rows of messy horseshoe prints.
The scout team of the Liaodong Army kept patrolling back and forth along the west bank of the river, and suddenly the commander was attracted by several moving black dots on the opposite side through the clairvoyant mirror, and he hurriedly shouted to his subordinates: "Stop, everyone, stop!" Find a place to hide. ”
Everyone stopped and quietly gathered around Wu Chang to hide, and one of the scouts asked, "Wu Chang, what happened?" ”
"Attention, everyone! I just found out that there's a ride on the other side! At present, our army is all stationed in Yumei and Wangxian, and in addition to the Liaodong Army, I am afraid that the entire Huangshui coast can only be rebels! ”
At this time, a scout with excellent eyesight also spotted the Hu Ranger, and he pointed to the moving black dot in the distance and shouted, "Oh my mother! There really is a Hu Qi! Look, what about the rangers on the move? ”
Looking at the faint Hu Qi in the distance, Wu Chang said anxiously: "Not good! This must be the forward ranger of the Hu people, and he must quickly tell General Beigong about the situation in front of him, so that the general can prepare to meet the enemy. ”
"Captain Wu, what should I do next?"
"Send two people to hurry back to Yumei City to report the information to the general, and the commander of this army will stay behind with the rest of the people to monitor the movements of the Hu people. Remember! Move fast! Don't delay halfway, be sure to notify General Beigong as quickly as possible! If it's late, maybe Yumei will be in danger. ”
"Please rest assured, Commander Wu, his subordinates will definitely pass the news to General Beigong!"
At the urging of the captain, the two scouts rode their war horses and headed towards Yumei at the fastest speed. As scouts, the two know that the military situation is like fire, and the sooner they report the military situation to the army, the sooner the garrison can be prepared, which means that when the war breaks out, they will have a better chance of winning.
……
"Drive!"
"Get out of the way! Get out of the way! Urgent! Urgent! ”
The scouts soon came to Yumei, and as soon as they passed through the city gate, they shouted loudly, and the surrounding people avoided the way to both sides, and soon the two scouts came to the location of Beigong Chun.
"Report!"
Beigong Chun heard the scout's high voice from afar, and his heart suddenly sank, and he said secretly: Could it be that the Hu people are here to commit it?
Sure enough, the scout soon came to Beigong Chun's side and reported to him the military information detected by the scout team.
Beigong Chun's eyes flashed when he heard this, and he traveled thousands of miles to lead the seven-compartment infantry coalition army into Yumei, and its main task was to eliminate the rebellious Di people, and then occupy Yongxian, Chencang and other western counties of Fufeng, and cut off the road for the king of Nanyang to retreat west to Qinzhou.
At the beginning, Juqu Zhi concentrated the main force in Yongxian, and Beigong Chun was not good at starting directly. And now Juqu Zhi actually personally led the army to come, which just gave Beigong Chun a good opportunity to break the enemy. It's just that the Hu people have 60,000 cavalry, and there are only three cavalry under his command, and the rest are all infantry, and the strength is at an overall disadvantage.
If you want to defeat the Hu people, Beigong Chun has to think about it.
"You go down and rest first."
After Beigong Chun finished ordering the scouts, he thought for a while and said: "Immediately inform the lord of the news of the invasion of the Hu army, and say that Qu Zhi led 60,000 Hu cavalry rebels to invade Yumei, and it is estimated that the enemy army will arrive in Yumei tonight or tomorrow morning." In addition, tell the lord again, let him not worry about the first line of Yumei, I have a good plan to break the enemy, please wait for the good news. ”
"The order is to go down, open the warehouse and distribute weapons, and all the soldiers immediately return to the camp to prepare for battle."
"Finally, quickly send people outside the city to evacuate the people, so that they can temporarily enter the city to take refuge."
Several heralds rode away quickly with Beigong Chun's general, running in different directions. Soon the entire Yumei City was martial law by the Liaodong Army, and a large number of soldiers began to enter the city, and groups of rangers were scattered out to investigate the movements of the enemy.
……
At night, the lights in the big tent of the Chinese army were bright, Wei Shuo frowned and sat in the first place with a gloomy face, and the rebellion launched by Zhuhu in the northwest caught Liaodong off guard. At this moment, Chen An walked in with a military report and handed it to Wei Shuo.
Wei Shuo picked up the military newspaper and glanced at it, his face was suddenly full of joy, and he said with a smile: "Everyone, I just received an urgent report from General Beigong, it is said that the 60,000 Hu cavalry troops of the Qu Shuai Juqu of the Di clan are slowly approaching Yumei. General Beigong already has a countermeasure in his heart, he suggested that I take advantage of the main force of the Hu clan to go north, and quickly take Chang'an, as long as Chang'an is over, the situation in Guanzhong will be settled! ”
"Didn't General Beigong ask for reinforcements?" Feng Yi asked in surprise.
"No, General Beigong specially asked someone to tell me that he has a good plan to break the enemy, so I don't have to worry about Yumei!"
Wen Qiao smiled when he heard this: "That's really good! The lord did not know that the south of Yongxian County is Chencang, which is an important pass to cross the Qinling Mountains to connect Guanzhong and Hanzhong, which shows how important the strategic position of Yongxian is. In the future, whether the Liaodong Army went south to attack Chencang, or to cut off the connection between Yongqin and Qin, Yongxian County was a must-take. ”
"As long as General Beigong can gather and annihilate Juqu to know the main force to go north, Yongxian will be at your fingertips! (To be continued.) )
