Chapter Fifty-Nine: The Winter of Wuhuan
Fang Zhiwen, who was cleaning the battlefield, received a message from the flying pigeon, and the Xianbei people went south, and as soon as his eyes turned, Fang Zhiwen understood that this must have been recruited by Bunton, and he had only scavenged less than a few thousand people in Bunton's territory, and Bunton's backhand came, and it seemed that this Bunton was really not easy to deal with.
As for the Xianbei people, the Xianbei people are also people, robbing the Xianbei people is no different from robbing the Wuhuan people, but the military strength and mobilization ability behind the Xianbei people are just stronger, but the Xianbei people seem to be merging states and Liaodong to start a war with the Han Dynasty, they really have the ability and willingness to open up a third battlefield in the north of Yuyang?
So, did he really turn his head to deal with the Xianbei people as he wished? Fang Zhiwen doesn't think so, the so-called things that the enemy doesn't want to see the most, he has to do it in every possible way, the more he doesn't want to plunder the eastern grassland, the more he wants to plunder, as for the Xianbei people, they will definitely not take the initiative to find trouble for themselves, maybe their goal will be to go south and enter the fortress.
discussed with Li Xueyin with a flying pigeon book, and wrote a reply to the dissatisfied Xiangxiang, and then asked a herald to send a silver piccolo back to Xiangxiang, the equipment of musical instruments is very rare, this piccolo is a high-end product at a glance, just used to appease the dissatisfied girl.
When Badun, who was in Guliu Town, learned that the Xianbei people were going south, his tears almost fell, and he was bitter! This group of Han horse thieves is really despicable, maybe he should be called a madman, his own tribe is constantly attacked, Guliu Town can not leave for the time being, because the loyalty of the Qiu Liju department is still very problematic, especially after giving up a large number of tribesmen last time, although a lot of high-ranking generals were killed at that time, and the troops were suppressed, but this dissatisfaction still needs time to be resolved, and these tribesmen gather on the grassland north of Guliu Town, and they also need the protection of the troops.
Therefore, Bunton didn't dare to send troops at all now, and he didn't even dare to leave, so he could only stay in Guliu Town honestly, at most, he sent a capable cadre to take 100,000 soldiers back to chase down the horse thieves, but the effect can only be regarded as strong, and many scattered small tribes are still constantly attacked, as for taking Miyun Sai Wei in the south to save Zhao, where the city wall is tall and the attack surface is narrow, so he won't go to the wall.
At this time, he understood Qiu Liju's pain, the biggest problem of the nomads was that their defense was extremely poor, and then there was the shortcoming of not being good at hard fighting in winter, and these two points were used by this gang of Han people and horse thieves, and every attack hit their own weakness, but they couldn't use their strength.
Bunton can only order his remaining generals to gather the people as much as possible, and wait until spring, after the grass grows, the situation will change, and then the offensive and defensive situation will be different, Bunton can only comfort himself like this.
The other is to place hopes on the Xianbei people, now that the Xianbei people have finally gone south, they have crossed the wet water and occupied the old land of Qiu Liju, maybe they will soon engage Fang Zhiwen, and when the time comes, the haze on the heads of the Wuhuan people will gradually dissipate, of course, just maybe.
It's just that the abacus is used in private, no matter how brilliant your calculation is, it is impossible to pull your will into other people's thoughts, let alone influence other people's actions, of course, it is impossible to change Fang Zhiwen's thoughts and actions, but it seems that the Han Dynasty did not have an abacus!
Badun's good mood didn't last until the third day, because the news from the east told him that Fang Zhiwen didn't turn around to the west at all, but continued to storm Badun's tribe, and now there was only one way left in front of Badun, tightly shrinking the tribe, gathering heavy troops to focus on defense, and sending senior generals to patrol the border, making a tenacious defensive posture.
"Zhiwen, there seems to be movement in the Xianbei people in the west, and Bunton has also assembled troops and made a gesture of key defense, and your activities are not big in the ground, so I asked you to come back and discuss it, this winter offensive is almost like this, what do you see?"
Li Xueyin is wearing a dark coat with a large flower texture and a cyan background, the skirt is tight, highlighting Li Xueyin's attractive figure, the skirt cuffs are loose, and the clothes are elegant, the collar and cuffs are inlaid with silver edges, and the inside is a two-layer small coat that gradually becomes lighter.
Fang Zhiwen blinked, turned his head to look at the fragrance next to him, it was also the same style of deep clothes, but the pattern and color were different, it looked more lively and cute, and he nodded with satisfaction, and then turned to Li Shehu and said, "What do you see about Shooting Tiger?" ”
"Bandun stationed in Guliu does not come out, and sits back and watches the lord rampant in Beiping, showing that his army is not yet available, so Bandun will not do anything all the way."
Speaking of this, Li Jihu looked at Fang Zhiwen, Fang Zhiwen nodded noncommittally, and then looked at Li Xueyin, Li Xueyin only smiled slightly, but Tian Yu, who was sitting at the bottom, looked like a relative, and seemed to agree with his thoughts.
"As for the Xianbei people, the Xianbei people are currently invading the south and annexing the state, and disturbing Liaodong in the east, even if they come to attack, it is not terrible, as long as Lord Tian and Brother Murong stick to Miyun, and the lord encroaches and attacks on the periphery, the Xianbei people will be defeated."
"And what about the people of the Badun headquarters?" Fang Zhiwen asked with a smile.
Li Shuhu responded: "I will not take it lightly 1."
Li Yuanzhi's eyes flashed: "Shooting the tiger, you mean, Bang Dun is just making a show, in fact, he just wants to trick the Xianbei people into sending troops?" ”
"Exactly, 1
Fang Zhiwen looked at Tian Yu, who was eager to try, nodded at him and said, "Tian Yu, tell me." ”
Tian Yu stood up happily and bowed his hand and said: "My lord, what Brother Shooting Tiger said is extremely true, we should take the initiative to attack the Xianbei people, and even directly attack their people who crossed the water, and hurt the Xianbei people, so that they can understand the intentions of the Xianbei people, and it is more important to separate the Xianbei and the people than to take real profits1
Fang Zhiwen pressed his palm, motioned for Tian Yu to sit down, turned his head to look at Li Xueyin, Li Xueyin said: "Now the city wall defense and equipment for defending the city in Linxi Town are basically complete, there are 220,000 people, and 50,000 militiamen can be recruited to assist in defending the city, and there are enough food, grass and ordnance." ”
Fang Zhiwen nodded and glanced at everyone: "It is indeed a conspiracy to separate Xianbei and Badun, but what is the relationship between Xianbei and Badun?" Why did they join forces to attack the Miyun Fortress? I don't think it's because they are of the same origin, or have some deep feelings, but in fact, it's just a convergence of interests, so the role of discord is limited. In addition, although he is now trapped in Guliu Town, it does not mean that he will always be trapped in Guliu Town, and in the spring of next year, he will be able to attack and defend differently, and when the time comes, even if the Xianbei people are stupid and hateful, they will not easily let go of this opportunity to share profits. It is foreseeable that the Miyun Fortress will continue to be in battle in the coming days. ”
Murong Fang and other generals nodded in agreement, Li Xueyin was thoughtful, Tian Yu lowered his head embarrassedly, but after a while, he recovered from the state of being hit, after all, he was still a child.
Li Xueyin's beautiful eyes flashed, staring at Fang Zhiwen with a serious expression, she couldn't believe that with the intelligence level shown on Fang Zhiwen's data, she would definitely not be able to say such a far-reaching point, but Fang Zhiwen has always been very mysterious, she will not be deceived by Fang Zhiwen's data, and even the loyalty of that 'diehard' should be a question mark, thinking of this, Li Xueyin couldn't help but secretly curl the corners of her mouth, revealing a charming smile.
Xiangxiang looked at her brother with admiration, anyway, in her heart, her brother is the most powerful one, not only in battle, but also in other aspects.
"In view of this, we must make full use of this winter, Xianbei people have a large population, and there is a next batch after eliminating this batch, while Badun is different, if we kill a little, he will have less, and if we snatch a batch, he will have a less, so, I mean, put Xianbei on hold, and attack Wuhuan! Xueyin, what do you see? ”
Li Xueyin smiled: "I agree, just send a division to attack the rear of Xianbei so that it can't let go of the attack, Zhiwen, you try to attack the tribe in the southeast of Wuhuan in Youbeiping." ”
Fang Zhiwen turned to the generals again.
"Our Lord's order is from 1
"Very good, Yuan Zhi, let you take 2,000 people from your headquarters, go out of the city tomorrow to attack the Xianbei people, and after you leave the city, you will do everything by yourself, I will no longer give specific orders, whether you advance or retreat is up to yourself, but everything should be done to save yourself first."
"No1
"Li Shuhu, I ordered you to take the men and horses of your headquarters to guard Linxi Town, and the rest of the generals will go with me to fight in Youbeiping."
"No1
"Xueyin, you can arrange the affairs in the city."
"Okay, the shooting tiger is responsible for scouting outside the city, patrolling the city wall, the militia will not be recruited for the time being, and will be recruited when necessary, I, Xiangxiang and Tian Yu, are responsible for checking props and materials, maintaining law and order in the city, and militia training."
"No1
Fang Zhiwen saw that the big things had been arranged, and as for the details, he could come down and arrange them slowly, turned his head and nodded at Li Xueyin, indicating that he had nothing else to do.
Li Xueyin said loudly: "Everyone, please act according to the instructions and adjourn the meeting." ”
After all the generals were gone, Xiangxiang exhaled and complained, "It's going to be a war again.1
Fang Zhiwen and Li Xueyin glanced at each other and laughed together, making Xiangxiang very embarrassed, Fang Zhiwen patted Xiangxiang's head and shook > the barren Amaranth stalksLi Xueyin laughed for a while and said, "Zhiwen, do you really plan to destroy Badun?" Something unrealistic, right? ”
"Of course not, just like you said, now we don't have the strength to destroy Badun, but it's okay to cripple him, before the end of winter, we must beat Badun, we can't let him attack Miyun Fortress in the spring of next year, and strive for a year of peace, and in the winter of next year, we can continue to encroach on the Wuhuan people."
"I've never been able to understand, isn't it that we can't win against the Wuhuan people in winter?"
"Well, if the Wuhuan people don't have the drag of logistics, they can entangle our troops, if the enemy has high-ranking generals, we will definitely lose if we fight hard, and if we run, we will not be able to run, we will be entangled by them, so only winter is the time for us to play our advantage."
Li Xueyin blinked: "Then what if they unite to besiege Miyun Fortress next spring?" ”
Fang Zhiwen smiled confidently: "We still have a large number of aliens waiting to make meritorious achievements, as long as we spend it with them, in winter, it will definitely be them who will collapse, and when we have another city in the future, or after we have obtained Guliu Town, the tactics we can choose will be more flexible." ”
