Xun Yu groaned: "Now is not the time to pursue Ma Teng. ”

Luo Zheng thought deeply and said: "What Wen Ruo said is very true, and General Ben also thinks so. At present, although our army has successfully repelled Ma Teng's army, there are still 30,000 Xihai Qiang soldiers who have not retreated, and after this battle, our army has consumed a huge amount of money and food, and it is no longer able to make a big move. If there is a strong enemy at this time, I am afraid that the general will not be able to hold even Jincheng County. ”

The generals looked awe-inspiring, and they didn't expect the situation to be so dangerous.

Xun Yu said: "The top priority is to repel the Xihai Qiang soldiers as much as possible in order to appease the people." ”

Luo Zheng asked: "How much is the food and grass of our army?" ”

Xun Yu said: "There is still half a moon of grain, if there is no support from the Qianghu tribe, the remaining grain and grass will not be able to support the autumn harvest at all." ”

Luo Zheng's brows furrowed for a moment, and he said, "What is the attitude of the Qianghu tribes?" ”

Xun Yu said: "I have sent people to the Qianghu tribe to borrow grain, and there is no news yet. ”

Luo Zheng thought for a while, and then said categorically: "If you don't repel the 30,000 Qiang soldiers of the West Sea, I'm afraid that these Qianghu tribes will not be so easy to borrow food from this general." I intend to personally mention that the cavalry of all units will go west to Linqiang in order to do their best. ”

Xun Yu arched his hand and said: "The lord is wise." ”

Luo Zheng Huo Ran stood up and said, "The generals will quickly go to the hour to count the troops and horses, and they will send troops tomorrow." ”

"Yes."

Li Meng, Wang Fang, Yang Qiu, Yan Xing and other generals hurriedly got up and answered loudly.

Luo Zheng said again: "Punish the fast horse to send an order to Zhao Yun, but you don't have to go back to Yunwu, and lead the army to kill Linqiang first." ”

"Order."

A herald had already answered the order loudly, received the arrow order and ran out.

Luo Pian turned to Xun Yu at this time, and said warmly: "Although Ma Teng's army has retreated today, the situation in Jincheng is still tight, and the aftermath still needs to be bothered by Wen Ruo. If something is difficult to decide, Wen Ruo does not have to doubt, but can be decided. ”

Xun Yu happily arched his hand and said: "Yu is divided into internal affairs, and the lord can rest assured." ”

Luo Zheng nodded at this time, having Xun Yu staying in the rear did make him very relieved.

The ancient road of Huangshui is difficult to walk with ups and downs.

Zhao Yun led 15,000 cavalry and was slowly moving eastward.

Suddenly, a fast horse galloped forward, and when he was three hundred paces away, he was stopped by the front army.

After the identity was verified, the herald was released.

"General Zhao Yun listens to orders."

The herald did not dismount, but shouted loudly on horseback.

Zhao Yun's face was solemn, he sat up straight on the horse's back, and said loudly: "What military orders does the lord have?" ”

The herald said loudly: "The lord has an order, ordering General Zhao Yun not to return to Yunwu, and to lead the army to kill Linqiang." ”

Zhao Yun's eyes froze, and he said, "Where is the arrow order?" ”

"The arrow order is here!"

The herald hurried forward and handed over the arrows.

Zhao Yun took the arrow order with both hands, and after verifying that it was correct, he said loudly: "Get the order." ”

The herald didn't say much, but he wanted to beat his horse and leave.

Zhao Yun stopped the herald and asked, "How is the battle going in Yunwu?" ”

The herald said: "Ma Teng's army has been repelled by the lord and has now withdrawn to Jincheng. ”

Zhao Yun's expression perked up, and he said, "Okay, you can reply to the lord, and then lead the army to Linqiang first." ”

The herald arched his hand, and then he rode away.

Zhao Yun knew that the battle in Linqiang was urgent, and he did not dare to delay, so he immediately ordered the army to turn around and kill Linqiang.

Jincheng, Ma Teng's military tent.

Pang De hurriedly walked into the tent and bowed his hand to Ma Teng: "I've seen the lord." ”

Ma Teng waved his hand and said indifferently: "Ling Ming doesn't have to be polite. ”

Pang De said in a condensed voice: "My lord, the army is running out of food, and the soldiers have made trouble several times. Although the last general suppressed it, it is not a way to go on like this! If we don't find a way to solve the problem of grain and grass, I am afraid that the army is in danger of mutiny. ”

Ma Teng said irritably: "How can General Ben not know, but Luo Zheng Xiao'er is strong and clear, and the people of Jincheng and Yuzhong counties have all been moved elsewhere, and not even a grain of grain is left, so in a hurry, where to collect grain?" ”

Pound sighed: "There is really no choice but to slaughter the war horse." ”

Ma Teng's eyes froze and he was silent for a long time.

Half an hour later, there were soldiers in the barracks again who were making trouble because they couldn't eat enough.

When Ma Teng heard the news, although he beheaded the soldiers who took the lead in making trouble, he had to adopt Pound's suggestion and ordered 10,000 cavalry to allocate 200 thin war horses to be slaughtered, so as to cope with the danger of food and grass, so as to calm the dissatisfaction of the soldiers.

However, eating war horses is a way out of the way after all, not a long-term solution.

Ma Teng did not dare to delay any longer, completely cut off the heart of attacking Yunwu, and led the army out of Jincheng to the east the next day, and did not dare to stay for half a day to retreat to Didao, which drew a humiliating end to the expedition to Jincheng.

Under Linqiang City, blood flowed and pestles, and floating corpses were everywhere.

The golden glow filled the sky, and the remnant sun quickly fell from the sky.

Seeing that it was getting late, the 30,000 Qiang soldiers retreated like a tide and returned to the camp.

Linqiang City, Gao Shun stands like a mountain, the majestic backbone seems to never bend, the broad and thick shoulders seem to be able to hold up the sky, even if the war is tight, this man like iron has always been calm, never showed the slightest nervousness and anxiety, as if the sky fell, but also able to push back, giving people infinite confidence.

Because of this, 8,000 hastily recruited and selected soldiers were able to fight the enemy to the death and be fearless.

The 30,000 Qiang soldiers retreated, and the soldiers who had been fighting all day were already exhausted, and they fell asleep one after another, regardless of whether there was a flood or a fierce urn under them. Just when he looked at the majestic back, his eyes couldn't help but reveal a trace of admiration.

Since the siege of the city by the Qiang soldiers of the West Sea, for more than ten days, Gao Shun has slept less than any soldier.

Even so, the soldiers never looked at Gao Shun with even a trace of fatigue.

For the sake of the generals, how can the soldiers not be respected, how can they not kill the enemy in blood.

In a certain sense, Gao Shun and Zhao Yun have the same qualities.

is also able to control his own desires very well, and the expression xiàn is more alternative than Zhao Yun.

It's just that he doesn't get close to women, he doesn't even eat alcohol, and he never covets pleasure.

Such a person is not a peerless hero, but has amazing expertise in a certain aspect.

Zhao Yun is calm and wise, cautious, and superior in force, even Xu Chu is slightly inferior.

Gao Shun showed excellent military literacy, won the support of the soldiers under his command, and led the army to win the battle and showed his grandeur.

The Qiang soldier battalion, the Chinese army's big tent.

"Damn Han General, I'm really angry, angry!"

Dian Ling's thunderous roar can be heard far and near, "It's been thirteen days, and the 30,000 army has attacked a small Linqiang City, but it can't be captured. What do you want these wastes to eat, who can tell me what the hell is going on, where has the courage of our Qiang warriors gone, why can't even a small Linqiang city be defeated? ”

No one said anything, and all the generals were silent, and they didn't dare to come out.

Dian Ling continued to vent the anger in his heart, and he was really angry.

An army of 30,000 attacked a city with only 8,000 men, but it was not captured for more than ten days.

This made the ambitious Dian Ling quite devastated, and there was nowhere to vent the pent-up evil fire.

Now it's good that these commanders have become punching bags.

When the roar of Dian Ling stopped, hurried footsteps suddenly sounded outside the tent.
