Chapter 601: Peace

Before Gongsun Chan led Bai Ma Yi to return to Beiping City. The battle of Pig Pen Slope has been decided. The 10,000 elite infantry of the Beiping Army under the command of Yan Gang had no bright future in the face of the Wuhuan coalition army, which had an absolute advantage in numbers, coupled with the innovative tactics of the Wuhuan cavalry, Yan Gang's rout was no suspense.

When the 20,000 Wuhuan cavalry who copied the back road of the Beiping Army arrived, they were no longer useful, and the Wuhuan warriors who moved out of the county town had already solved the battle, and all that remained was to pursue the scattered defeated soldiers and clean up the battlefield.

Although the shape shì was extremely unfavorable to them, the Beiping army still fought hard under the leadership of Yan Gang, and showed that an elite division should be suzhì. In the rain of arrows flying from all directions of the Wuhuan people, the soldiers of the Beiping Army fell one by one, and every step forward was so difficult, but their pace of progress never stopped.

Under the impact of the Beiping Army's death, the Wuhuan coalition army could only watch more than 2,000 Beiping troops enter the jungle, and Yan Gang, the general under Gongsun Zhan's tent, was also among them. The Wuhuan people did not continue the pursuit, and let the cavalry enter the jungle to fight, which was very unwise.

In the battle of Zhulongpo, the 10,000 elite infantry soldiers of the Beiping Army were buried here with nearly 8,000 people, and the Wuhuan cavalry also paid the price of more than 2,000 deaths. In Ah Niu's opinion. 50,000 cavalry versus 10,000 infantry, there was really nothing to boast about winning this victory, but the Wuhuan people reacted as if they were celebrating a holiday.

"It was a brilliant victory!" Uwang was in tears.

"Yes, we have never achieved such a huge victory, we have rewritten history!" Futon's voice was also a little choked.

"We won!" The adults of the Wuhuan tribe high-fived each other, and they were inexplicably excited.

Ah Niu couldn't help but feel a little sorry in his heart, the Wuhuan people had suffered too much in the battle with the Beiping Army in the past. Not to mention that the battle loss ratio in this war is about 1 to 4, even if the number of Wuhuan people killed in this battle is equal to that of the Beiping Army, in their opinion, it is a great victory!

The total strength of the Beiping Army was close to 30,000, and the loss of 8,000 elite infantry soldiers was not a small blow to the Beiping Army. Looking back, although the losses of the Wuhuan coalition army were not light, they were shared by dozens of tribes, and if they were to fight for attrition, the pain of the Beiping army would be even more profound.

Everyone knows that after the first battle of Zhulongpo, the Beiping Army has almost lost the ability to confront the Wuhuan coalition army head-on, and the Wuhuan coalition army's actions in Beiping County on the right will be easier. However, this also means that after this painful defeat, the possibility of Gongsun Chan defending the city has greatly increased, and the Wuhuan coalition army wants to lure the Beiping army out of the city again, and there is little hope.

No one knows whether such an outcome is good or bad!

Only one thing is certain: the Wuhuan coalition army has finally defeated the invincible Beiping army, this is a complete victory, and the shame that Gongsun Chan inflicted on all Wuhuan people is being washed away!

The warriors of the Wuhuan tribes were also excited, and everyone raised their sabers and strong bows to the sky and cheered, expressing the joy in their hearts. The battle ended quickly. There were still many corpses of the war dead in the battlefield that had not been refreshed, and a strong smell of blood floated in the air, which could not stop the Wuhuan people from celebrating.

At this time, a 5,000-strong Wuhuan cavalry force rushed out, and it was difficult to hide the excitement between the eyebrows, but there was a little more sternness in his expression.

Wu Wang and Fu Dun walked over with a smile on their faces and said to Ah Niu: "The infantry of the Beiping Army has been completely defeated by us, if it were not for the troops of Ah Niu City Lord to contain the White Horse Yicong, we would not be able to launch a siege here so confidently and boldly. We have sent 5,000 Erlang to meet General Zhao's troops. ”

"Hmm."

Ah Niu nodded, he was not too worried about the safety of the Flying Wing Battalion, the characteristics of the Flying Wing Battalion could be used to the maximum extent in the battlefield selected by Xu Wushan. Although he couldn't learn the battle report at the first time, Ah Niu has been checking the situation of the Flying Wing Battalion in the city lord's guard book, and so far, there has been no attrition in the Flying Wing Battalion, which is the main reason why Ah Niu has been able to remain calm.

Before Zhao Yun went to war, he was instructed by Ah Niu: procrastination is the main thing, if it really can't work, it is best to preserve strength.

You can't blame a certain city lord for being selfish, a special type of troops like the Flying Wing Battalion is too precious, and he finally saved more than 550 horses, could it be that he lost it for such a battle that had no direct stake in Feng Xiang? Even if Fengxiang City itself faces the catastrophe of life and death, as long as there is another choice, Ah Niu will never fight with the Flying Wing Battalion and the camp.

In the final analysis, Feng Xiang is only a guest army in this war.

More than 500 cavalry flying wing battalions can hold back 3,000 white horses for a period of time, and those Wuhuan adults can't say that Feng Xiang didn't do his best.

With Xu Rong's on-the-spot command, even if Bai Ma Yicong and Yan Gang's troops converge, the outcome of this battle will not change in any way, and no one can stop the victory of the Wuhuan people, the only difference is how much the Wuhuan coalition army will pay.

In fact, in Ah Niu's view, from the moment the Beiping army went out of the city to reinforce the county seat of Wuzhong. The outcome of this battle is already doomed, and the Beiping army will be defeated!

Half an hour later, five thousand Wuhuan cavalry and flying wing battalions came to the pigpen slope, and the Wuhuan military general who led the troops to meet Zhao Yun was Zalu, this tower-like man gently urged the war horse to come out of the crowd, his lips kept moving, and he shouted out after a while.

No one knew why he was so agitated until Zaru finished speaking.

"General Zhao of Fengxiang City not only dragged down the White Horse Yicong led by Gongsun Zhan, but also shot and wounded more than 500 enemies, forcing Gongsun Zhan to return to Beiping, and the Flying Wing Battalion did not suffer any casualties!"

The tens of thousands of Wuhuan people in the pig pen slope were all stunned and silent.

As for whether the Flying Wing Battalion can hold back the White Horse Righteous Servants, in fact, most of these Wuhuan people do not have much hope, no one could have imagined in advance that this cavalry force of more than 500 people could really drag the terrifying, almost invincible White Horse Righteous Servants, and even killed and injured the enemy at the same time, there were no casualties!

Gongsun Chan was forced to abandon his elite infantry and flee back to Beiping!

What tens of thousands of Wuhuan cavalry can't do, the Flying Wing Battalion has done!

This fact is difficult for people to accept for a while, no matter how the Flying Wing Battalion does it, winning is winning, and they deserve everyone's respect and cheers. Those Wuhuan lords who had been disdainful of the Flying Wing Battalion were eager to find a crack in the ground to get into.

Objectively speaking, the flying wing battalion still had some people in this sortie, and more than a dozen unlucky cavalrymen were swept across their faces by branches hanging in mid-air while running wildly on the mountain road, as if they had been whipped several times, forming a red and white "zebra crossing", which was extremely funny, and the injured one was almost blind. This kind of non-combat mistake is really laughable.

"Oh my God, even Baima Yijun is no match for this small cavalry in Fengxiang City, how strong are they? What kind of monsters are these! ”

"Fortunately, Fengxiang City is our friend."

This unprecedented victory greatly boosted the morale and confidence of the Wuhuan coalition army, and this hearty victory also caused discordant voices to appear within the coalition army. At a time when the Wuhuan coalition was at a disadvantage. The tribes can work together to overcome the difficulties, but when the most difficult times pass and victory is in sight, all kinds of pent-up contradictions have poked their heads out.

This is a coalition of more than thirty tribes (6 and several more Wuhuan tribe troops arrived, bringing the number of participating tribes in the coalition to more than thirty), representing different positions, and the adults of each tribe want to fight for the greater good of their tribe. Even if not all of them are so short-sighted, as long as a few people express such a will, the whole group will soon follow suit!

In the first tribal meeting after winning the battle of Pigpen Slope, the tribal lords had a fierce debate about the future of the battle, and the scene was very hot and the atmosphere was extremely tense.

The main battle faction believed that it was necessary to take the opportunity of this great victory to completely uproot the remaining forces of Sun Zhan, the Taishou Gonggong of Beiping, so as to prevent future troubles; However, the main peace faction believes that although the Wuhuan people have achieved the absolute military initiative in the battle, it is almost impossible to take more advantage from the Beiping army, and they should seize the opportunity to force the Beiping army to negotiate peace and obtain greater benefits by peaceful means.

The focus of the debate is whether this battle should continue to be fought, the main battle faction of the Niu Ye army and the main peace faction of the Taran tribe are evenly matched, and neither side can convince the other side.

Both factions have their own reasons.

Main Battle Faction:

First, Sun Zhan, the Taishou Gonggong of Beiping, repeatedly bullied and oppressed ethnic minorities in the north, including Wu Huan, as evidenced by the tragic blood in Beiping. A single Wuhuan tribe was simply unable to resist the attack of the Beiping army, and this time it was difficult to gather the forces of more than 30 tribes, and if they did not take advantage of the situation to completely eliminate Gongsun Zhan, would they sit back and wait for the Beiping army to recover and retaliate one by one?

Second, the Wuhuan tribes have lost more than 15,000 warriors and people alive in this war. I need to give an explanation to those heroic souls who have sworn away.

Third, there are a lot of materials and money in the towns of Beiping County, and if the richest county towns and county towns can be captured one by one, the Wuhuan tribes will receive extremely rich rewards. During the period of the war with Gongsun Zhan, the production of the participating tribes was greatly affected, and the war capture was just enough to compensate for the previous efforts.

The arguments of the main and main battle factions are refuted one by one:

The first point is that after the Beiping army suffered a heavy setback, Gongsun Chan was very likely to defend the city, and the Wuhuan coalition army, which was not good at siege warfare, had almost no possibility of attacking Beiping City.

The second point is that if you continue to fight, there will definitely be more Wuhuan warriors who will lose their lives. The dead warriors are certainly lamentable, but the living should be cherished.

The third point is that it is true that the spoils of war can be captured after capturing the towns and villages of Youbeiping, but the gains from the towns and villages are very limited, and the cities with abundant materials are not so easy to attack. Attack a city with stone walls. The Wuhuan coalition will have greater casualties, and the manufacturing of siege equipment is not even enough to ensure a continuous attack on a county town.

In addition, Lord Fton also sternly voiced his worries.

"We have achieved this great victory, and the Beiping army should not dare to go out of the city to face our army head-on in the short term, but this is not necessarily a good thing. Putting aside the Han people's ability to defend and defend the city, the balance of the war in Beiping has been broken, will those Han forces that are close to Beiping and have always remained silent sit back and watch our Wuhuan people continue to do whatever they want in Beiping? And the Xianbei people who helped us to hold back the Liaodong Army would tolerate us taking advantage of Beiping alone? Even Lord Liu Yu, the Pastor of Youzhou, probably won't agree to us doing this! ”

Ah Niu, who had been silent in the tent, couldn't help but have a new understanding of Lord Futon's insight, "Being able to be arrogant or impatient in addition to the big victory, and being able to make a rational analysis of the current situation, this fat man's insight is by no means beyond the reach of ordinary people." The Taran tribe is one of the three strongest tribes in Wuhuan, and Futon's vision must be the key to it! ”

Victory blinds people, and Futon's words made those tribesmen who fought the main battle sluggish, and the shape of the Wuhuan people was not as good as they imagined. No one dared to pat their chests and say that Lord Futon's worries would never become a reality!

The previous argument in the camp faded down, and everyone was thinking about Futon's words, and Lord Futon was obviously quite pleased with this, and his face was slightly pale, and he said slowly:

"Our Wuhuan tribes have attacked Beiping on a large scale this time, not because our strength is enough to compete with the Han people. I believe that the prestige of Gongsun Du's Liaodong Army in the previous march into the steppe has not been forgotten, even if the strength of Yan Zhanng's Beiping Army is compromised, if the target is any one of our tribes, it will be able to win a complete victory.

The war between us and the Beiping army started because Peiping unreasonably withheld our goods and insulted our people, so our retaliatory actions against Peiping did not attract more enemies. However, when we have already won a decisive victory, if we continue to pursue and fight relentlessly and try to destroy Gongsun Chan's power, it will only arouse the resentment of other forces - in fact, we have no strength to destroy Gongsun Chan.

In order to fight this war, the warriors of various tribes gathered in Beiping, the fierce wolves of the steppe and those enemies who were more vicious than the wolves. Zhengyan zhòng threatens the lives of the people, and even the greedy Xianbei people may take the opportunity to seize the pasture and rob us of our wealth. The safety of the various tribes cannot be guaranteed, and our warriors should return to their respective tribes to protect our clansmen and livestock, instead of continuing to stay in Youbeiping County, which is not our land.

In addition, it is autumn now, and the harsh winter is coming, and I believe that the tribes of all the adults here have not yet had time to make sufficient preparations for the winter, and those tasks also need to be completed with the assistance of skilled warriors. We don't have much time left to splurge. ”

There was silence in the camp, insisting on staying and continuing the war, and the final result is difficult to say, but the problems of the tribe's production, life, and security are predictable. Some of the adults of the main battle faction have begun to seriously consider these issues.

Since the beginning of the argument, Lord Uwang has not spoken, and has quietly listened to the arguments of the various tribesmen. Uwang knew very well that with the victory of the Battle of Zhulongpo, the situation of all tribes sharing weal and woe would be gone forever, and his role as the temporary leader of the alliance had been weakened by Yan Zòng, which was the reason for his silence.

Until now, when Wu Wang began to speak, he did not directly express his opinion, but asked Ah Niu, who was also silent.

"Ah Niu City Lord, I wonder what you think about this matter?"

A certain city lord said lightly: "I agree with Lord Futon's opinion, after today's battle, if the Wuhuan coalition army continues to put pressure on the Beiping army, at most five days, the Liaodong army will make a heavy comeback, don't forget that there are still reinforcements from the Plains Order still marching to Beiping."

Also, with Gongsun Zhan's character, he will never sit still. If I were the Taishou of Beiping, I would only need to use the Beiping infantry to defend the county seats, county towns and other important cities, and personally lead Bai Ma Yi to go north from the wave army, return blood for blood, and hunt down and kill the women and children of the Wuhuan tribes who have no ability to resist, and even don't have to wait for reinforcements to arrive, and the siege of Beiping will be relieved. ”

With the strength of the White Horse Righteous Servant, even if the warriors of the tribes did not leave, they could only accept the fate of being broken one by one!

If Gongsun Chan is forced to the point of desperation, Gongsun Chan's thousand-mile pursuit will definitely become a reality. The migration of the tribes has just begun, and it is very close to Beiping, and Baima Yicong even has the ability to bloodied more than ten tribes in less than three days!

Everyone is discolored!

"This ...... It won't be so strict, right? ”

Lord Yatu of the Niuye tribe stammered, in fact, he himself understood that since the Wuhuan people were able to implement the scorched earth policy in Youbeiping County, why couldn't Gongsun Chan wash all the ministries in blood?

At this moment, two pieces of news came.

First, the 5,000 troops of Liu Bei of the Plains Order, with the help of a certain player force in Gongsun Zhan's camp, took a small road to avoid the obstacles of Liu Yu's camp player troops on the official road, and arrived in Beiping City an hour ago!

Second, half an hour ago, Beiping City sent a scout cavalry force of hundreds of people to disperse towards the Wuhuan prairie in the north!

If the main battle faction in Lord Wuhuan was still a little hesitant before this, then after these two news, everyone couldn't sit still, and everyone realized that this battle could no longer be fought. Beiping had the first support army, led by Liu Bei and Zhang Fei, who were in the limelight in the battle against Dong Zhuo; And Gongsun Zhan suddenly sent a large-scale scout to the north, obviously it cannot be ruled out that the Beiping army is preparing to move north, and everyone knows who the target of the north is.

It was under such circumstances that a certain city lord put forward the idea of "willing to go to Beiping to negotiate with Gongsun Zhan, hoping to turn the conflict into a jade silk", which was unanimously praised by the adults of all tribes.

Beiping City is too guarded to the mansion, Ah Niu and Gongsun Zhan met again, and there were also Liu Bei, the plain order, and a lord player.

Ah Niu had planned to ask the fat dragon baby and the dragon god to help, so that the remaining troops of the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army would make a feint attack on the Pingyuan County, after Liu Bei brought out a force of 5,000 people, the defenders of the Pingyuan County were less than 2,000 people, and the Yellow Turban's siege of the city was likely to force Liu Bei to return to the division to save himself, after all, that was his only capital. However, considering that it might expose Feng Xiang's connection with the Yellow Turban, he did not take action.

Ah Niu's blockade of Liu Bei's troops to quickly get through the players of Liu Yu's camp was quite unexpected, and it was quite surprising that they arrived in Beiping, in order to prevent Liu Bei's army from arriving, almost all the player troops of Liu Yu's camp were dispatched, but the result was still a failure.

That lord player was obviously the lord who helped Liu Bei arrive in Beiping, and in Gongsun Zhan's introduction, Ah Niu finally knew his identity: Brother Wu Xiaoma, the lord of Jiangyi City, Liaodong County.

Jiang Yicheng's troops arrived in the war zone from Liaodong a few days late, and after Xiaoma made an analysis of the shape at that time, he ignored the task of "assisting in the defense of Junmi County", and led his troops to venture westward alone, and received Liu Bei in Liu Yu's territory, and led Liu Bei's troops to bypass the blocking troops unknowingly, leaving a glimmer of hope for the counterattack of the Beiping army. It is precisely because of this great achievement that Brother Wu was able to enter the account.

The first meeting between the strongest lord of Qingzhou and the strongest lord of Youzhou was actually realized under this circumstance, Ah Niu and Brother Wu Xiao Ma looked at each other and smiled at each other, and greeted politely.

"This guy doesn't seem to be a nuisance." Pony whispered.

The focus of Ah Niu's trip was still the negotiation with Gongsun Zhan, and the negotiations began quickly.

Liu Bei's reinforcements arrived so that Gongsun Zhan, who had just suffered a defeat, was a little more confident, but Yan Gang, who fled back to Beiping, described the battle of Zhulongpo secretly frightened Beiping Taishou, and the combat effectiveness of the Wuhuan people soared after innovating the tactics, and they were no longer the objects that the Beiping army could bully at will, and more than 70,000 Wuhuan cavalry still had an unshakable military advantage!

Even if Beiping can keep one county, four counties and some important cities, and use Baima Yicong to launch a fierce counterattack against the Wuhuan troops, but the successive fall of towns and towns will make the right Beiping County exist in name only, which is a "seven wounds fist" like a style of fighting.

Furthermore, Gongsun Chan is also worried that even if he relies on reinforcements and counterattacks to keep Beiping this time, who dares to say that there will not be a second or third incident of the Wuhuan coalition besieging Beiping?

Therefore, unless the Wuhuan people are too much, Gongsun Chan does not want that situation to happen, and he can no longer withstand a big toss.

Both sides have their own fears, and both have a strong need for peace, and the key battle is how to deal with it so that both sides can accept it, and there are steps to go down.

The matter arose because Beiping detained the goods of Wuhuan merchants, which was the tipping point of the war, so it was necessary for the Beiping army, which was in a loss and temporarily weak, to return the goods, so that the Wuhuan coalition army had a "reason" to retreat.

As the Taishou of Beiping, Gongsun Chan returned his goods like this after the defeat, which obviously also damaged his face, and a certain city lord had to take great pains for Gongsun Chan's face. Fortunately, Ah Niu is still a little anxious, and once again showed his own cleverness on this issue: Gongsun Zhan "gifted" that batch of goods to Fengxiang City as a little heart to support his teacher Lu Zhi to rebuild Luoyang.

A certain city lord is in the heart of heaven, and in order to settle the dispute between the two sides, he "transferred" the goods to the Wuhuan people again without authorization, so it is not about Gongsun Zhan.

As for the losses of both sides in the war, everyone tacitly chose to ignore it and let it drift by with the wind.

The deal is reached! (To be continued)
