Chapter 1241: Low morale
Cao Cao nodded and thought, "Yes! The current strategic focus has changed! We must place the main forces in the Western Regions! But after all, this place is far away from the Central Plains, and our soldiers are afraid that they will be homesick if they stay here for a long time, which will affect their combat effectiveness!? ”
Zhang Liao pondered for a moment and suggested: "It is better to let the eight main army corps and the garrisons of Yongzhou, Luoyang, and Bingzhou take turns to garrison the Western Regions, while the Xianbei Legion and the Xiongnu Legion, which are mainly nomads, can be stationed here all year round, and there will be no problem!" ”
Cao Cao nodded thoughtfully, and said with a smile: "Wenyuan, your suggestion is very good!" However, the stakes are high, and I must make a decision after consulting with the cabinet ministers! Prior to this, all the armies were temporarily stationed in the Western Regions! Wen Yuan, you are in charge of the defense of the Jin people on the northern front of Kangju! ”
"No!" Zhang Liao clenched his fists and promised. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
That night, Cao Cao received military information from Xizhou. At present, the battle situation in Xizhou is not very optimistic, mainly because Wuyi Mountain is attacking with all its might.
The Wuyishan army of nearly 100,000 troops finally broke through the estuary defense line on the tenth day after the war, Pei Yuanshao was forced to lead the remnants to retreat to the nearby domestic city, and then the Wuyishan army surrounded the domestic city, and now it is attacking day and night, for the Wuyishan people, the siege is simply a nightmare, and they have lost seven or eight thousand people under the domestic city with poor siege equipment.
At the same time, the rebels of Tiele were still storming the capital of Wusun Wang, and before that, they had repeatedly attacked the head of the capital of Wusun Wang, and the Xizhou garrison of Wusun Wang's capital was not only inferior in numbers, but also slightly inferior to Tiele in many aspects such as the will to fight.
Li Yuanil led another Wusun rebel army to besiege Hengren Fortress to the west of the capital of Wusun Wang, and the situation was also precarious, while the rebels of Shikoku were besieging the strategic city of Imjin City, where the situation was not much better than that of the Wusun area.
Cao Cao frowned and muttered, "It's time to end too!" "Write an order, call the herald, give him the order, and let it be passed on to the Protectorate of the Western Regions.
Just on this night, outside the city of Hengren.
The rebels, who had been storming Hengren all day, temporarily stopped their attacks, and the barracks soon fell silent, with only patrols and sentries moving. The night was darker than ever, because the moon in the sky didn't know where to hide.
The two sentries on the north gate of the camp walked back and forth with spears in hand, looking very vigilant.
Suddenly, the two of them heard a rapid and slight sound of breaking the air at the same time, and before they could react, their eyes widened, and they collapsed on the verandah of the gate, and both of them had a sharp arrow stuck in their necks.
Immediately afterwards, I saw hundreds of black shadows quickly come out of the thick night not far ahead, came to the gate, and then lay down in the grass outside the gate, and at the same time, two black-clothed people quickly climbed up the corridor on the gate. At this moment, a group of patrolmen was coming this way, and there were about a hundred of them.
The two men in black who ascended the verandah immediately picked up the two dead sentinels and made them lean against the railing of the verandah as if they were dozing.
No sooner had the two sentries been set up than the patrol came under the veranda. The captain of the team leader glanced at the corridor and said unhappily: "Raise your vigilance for me!" ”
There was a vague promise from the corridor. The captain cursed in a low voice and led his men to the other end.
When the patrol group had left more than a hundred paces, hundreds of black shadows reappeared, and at the same time, the two black shadows who had previously boarded the corridor jumped down from the corridor and opened the door.
Hundreds of men in black immediately poured into the barracks and disappeared between the tents of the barracks.
Li Yuanri had already fallen asleep, and nearly a hundred personal soldiers were close to the big tent.
Suddenly, Li Yuanri heard a slight strange noise outside the tent, woke up, hurriedly got down from the bed, and shouted from outside the tent with some chagrin: "What are you doing? ”
He was surprised that there was no response from outside the tent.
Li Yuanri subconsciously had a very bad premonition.
Hurriedly went to the weapon rack and got his spear.
At this moment, the curtain was suddenly lifted, and several black shadows rushed in.
Li Yuanri was shocked and asked, "Who is it?" However, he was answered by several cold blades.
Li Yuanri hurriedly parried.
At this time, two other men in black came in from outside the big tent.
"Spread out!" One of the men in black whispered.
Several black-clothed men who were attacking Li Yuanri immediately flashed to the sides.
Immediately afterwards, the two black-clothed men who had just come in fired crossbow arrows at Li Yuanri with their crossbows.
Li Yuanri dodged several arrows, and was suddenly nailed to his thigh by an arrow, and he couldn't help but snort and stumbled backwards.
The two men in black immediately stopped firing arrows, and then the other men in black pounced and captured Li Yuanri alive in a fierce fight.
At the same time, fires broke out in many places in the barracks, especially the stables and grain and grass storage grounds.
And at this moment, thunder suddenly rolled outside the barracks, and the whole earth seemed to tremble.
More than 10,000 iron horsemen suddenly appeared outside the camp and surged in through the wide open gate, like a flood of sluice.
These iron horsemen are black-clad and black-armored, wearing half-faceted helmets, and they are the most elite Xuanjia iron horsemen of the Wei army.
10,000 Xuanjia iron horsemen rushed into the Wusun rebel camp and swept past the thousands of rebels who tried to resist, and thousands of rebels were killed all over the field in the blink of an eye, and the remaining rebels fled in panic.
The 10,000 Xuanjia Iron Cavalry immediately divided into several teams and assaulted in separate ways.
At this moment, dozens of men in black escorted Li Yuanri out, and burned Li Yuanri's big tent with a fire.
The rebel soldiers, who were already panicked and at a loss, saw that the Chinese army's tent was burning, and their morale immediately collapsed completely.
More than 10,000 rebels fled like headless flies, while the Wei army's Xuanjia Iron Cavalry was ruthlessly chasing and killing, screaming one after another, and one by one the Wusun rebel soldiers were ruthlessly cut to the ground by the Xuanjia Iron Cavalry.
After about half an hour, everything was quiet, and the remaining six or seven thousand Wusun rebels were taken prisoner by the Wei army, and at this time they were completely devoid of the generous and heroic appearance of not long ago, and were completely a herd of poor lambs waiting to be slaughtered, and there was a deep fear on each of their faces.
Ma Teng entered the camp under the escort of everyone, glanced at the scene in front of him, and nodded with satisfaction.
At this time, a general of the Wusun Army was escorted to Ma Teng.
"Get on your knees!" The officer who had brought the captives shouted, but the general stood stubbornly.
The officer was furious and kicked the captive in the ankle, and the captive fell to his knees in pain. The captive glared at the officer and struggled to his feet.
Ma Teng motioned for the officer to stand back and asked, "What's your name?" ”
The captive snorted coldly and turned his head away.
Ma Teng said appreciatively: "You have a lot of backbone!" ”
Then he said with a hint of emotion: "But you Wusun is still dead!" And the vast majority of your people are also happy to be the subjects of the Great Wei Empire! Your rebellion is nothing but a respectable but pathetic farce! Yuluo ignored the captive and motioned for him to be taken down.
"General, it's time for us to sweep through Tieler's headquarters next!" A subordinate general rushed into the tunnel.
Ma Teng nodded and ordered: "The herald orders the Xuanjia Iron Cavalry to immediately pull out, and when they arrive at the capital of Wusun Wang, if the enemy army is unprepared, they will raid!" Otherwise, there is no need to rush to attack! ”
"Yes!"
Tiele, who had just fallen asleep, suddenly woke up and found that he was still in his tent, so he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, turned his head to look outside the tent, and shouted, "Someone! ”
One of his own soldiers immediately entered the tent, "General, what do you command?" The soldier asked, clasping his fists.
"What time is it now?" Tiele rubbed his temples.
The soldier replied: "It's past the time of the child! ”
"Is there a biography from General Li Yuanri?" Tieler asked.
The soldier replied: "No! General, at this time, if there is no emergency, General Li will not be arraigned! ”
Tiele nodded, got out of bed, put on his robes, and went to the soldier's camp.
At this time, the camp was very quiet, and most of the Wusun soldiers had already fallen asleep.
As he looked around the camp, he found a few soldiers whispering something in the tent, and he couldn't help but be curious, so he walked inside.
As soon as I reached the door, I heard a soldier say, "I don't know if we can win!" ”
Another soldier chimed in: "Yes! It's been so long, but there is no result! If the main force of Wei arrives, we will be finished! ”
The third soldier couldn't help but say, "If there was no rebellion, I would still be living a comfortable life in the city now!" I really don't know why I rebel! ”
When he heard this, Tiele was furious.
But what drove him even more crazy was yet to come.
As soon as the soldier's words fell, another soldier whispered, "Did you say that the general wanted to rebel because of the queen?" ”
Everyone was stunned, including Tie Le outside the tent.
"You can't say that! If the general hears it, we're done! ”
The soldier's voice stopped abruptly, looked at the door with a frightened expression, and stammered: "Big, big, great general!" ”
Everyone was startled, and hurriedly looked out of the tent, and saw the main character in their conversation, the general Tie Le, standing at the door with an iron face.
Everyone hurriedly stood up and hurriedly knelt down to Tieler, and the little soldier who had spread the scandal of Tiele just now trembled and said, "Villain, villain,"
Tie Le almost wanted to slaughter the guy in front of him who was chewing the root of his tongue on the spot, so he suppressed his anger and said in a deep voice: "I will pretend that I didn't hear what you said today!" If there is a next time, we will not be spared! Now, go back to sleep for me! ”
Everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in their hearts, they originally thought that Tie Le would not let him go, so they hurriedly thanked him.
Tiele returned to the big tent, put down his saber, and squatted on the handsome case, his eyes full of murderous intent. (To be continued.) )
