Chapter 366 The King of Zuogu Li
Late at night, in front of the Night Wolf Valley in Yangjun, King Liking of Zuogu sat by the bonfire, looking at several embarrassed defeated generals in front of him with cold eyes. Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½
"Ambushed? 6,000 people are all gone? Didn't you say that there are 40,000 broken troops in Suzhou, you must be careful?"
Zuogu Liwang Su Bu is Chinese New Year's Eve years old today, born with big ears, thick beard, lofty bearing, majestic when looking forward to it, a pair of red eyes shocking people's hearts.
At this time, the defeated generals were all in a cold sweat under their gaze, and one of them said cautiously: "At that time, someone also persuaded him, but the commander of the Ten Thousand Cavalry said that the army of Great Qin had lost its courage and would not dare to go out of the city. As a result, sixty-seven miles outside Suzhou, our unit was ambushed. The Second Division of the Broken Army, using Taoist occult techniques to cover up, lurked on both sides of the main road, catching us off guard. β
When Zuogu Liwang Xu Bu heard this, he couldn't help but sneer: "Are your scouts all blind?"
Seeing that these people were silent, Su Bu's eyes were slightly condensed, and then he waved his hand and motioned for them to leave.
The defeat of Suzhou this time is the responsibility of the main general. Although these people are also at fault, they do not need to be held seriously responsible, and they can only be dealt with in accordance with military law.
As for the commander of the ten thousand horsemen, now that everyone is dead, there is no need to talk about military law. The purpose of the punishment was to warn the people, and now the life of this man is enough to warn the whole army not to be careless.
"A hundred miles of rest. β
After these people retreated, Xu Bu looked at a white-robed old man next to him: "It seems that you are right, this An Guogong is indeed a little tricky." It was this king who was wrong before, and I can't help you. β
The hundred miles of Changxi smiled bitterly when he heard this: "Ying Chong is only fifteen years old, and he has not yet reached the age of binding his hair, and he was unknown before. His Royal Highness does not believe the words of the ministers, but it is a matter of course. It's just that now, this son has become a bit of a climate, and I'm afraid it's even more difficult to deal with. As far as the minister knew, two days ago, he had defeated the 300,000 Maitreya Mahayana army at Loufengkou, and then defeated a force called 'Heavenly Court' in the Qin Realm. In yesterday's battle alone, five people from the Quan Tianjing Realm and two from the Shangzhu Kingdom were killed. Behind him, there was no internal worry, and now he had subdued 40,000 of the Broken Army. With the current financial strength of the Anguo government, it is easy to gather 400,000 troops in the north. β
"Heavenly Court, this king has also heard of it,"
Xu Bu bowed slightly, and there was a slight remorse in his eyes. Heavenly Court had sent people over before, wanting to join forces with him to get rid of that Duke An Guo. But these **** took into account the unstable back road, and there were other things involved, and they didn't trust the force called 'Heavenly Court', so they politely refused.
But now it seems that this is indeed a mistake, even if only two Quan Tianjing were sent over at that time, the result would be very different.
"But 400,000 is an exaggeration?"
"It is no exaggeration to know that the army under his command now has 200,000 people, and the soldiers of various families can also gather more than 100,000. β
Baili Changxi shook his head: "And this son is the son of a famous general, just by ascending to the heights, there are countless Kwantung lords attached." As far as the old man knew, as early as seven or eight days ago, that An Guogong had ordered people to go to Yongzhou to recruit troops, and at least 100,000 old soldiers from the Kwantung region could be obtained, all of whom were elites who fought against the six countries of the Kwantung region all year round. β
Su Bu's expression was solemn, and he turned to the other side and asked, "Hu Han Evil, what do you think?"
The man he looked at was a young man in leather armor and a feather ornament on his head. The appearance is extremely young, only twenty years old, but the temperament is shrewd and capable.
This is the left captain of the left wing of the Xiongnu, whose status is equivalent to the combination of the privy envoy and the jiedu envoy in the Qin realm, which can be described as a high and powerful position.
The Xiongnu were difficult to govern because of the vast area and sparsely populated. In addition to the central royal court, there are two wings, left and right. Put the left and right Xian Wang, the left and right Gu Li Wang, the left and right generals, the left and right Dadu Lieutenants, the left and right big pawns, the left and right bones are marquis, and the left and right are big and ditch.
Among them, the left and right Xian kings are the heads of the left and right wings; the big danghu, the bone capital marquis, and the big and ditch are the civil ministers, who are used for auxiliary government; and the left and right Gu Li kings, the left and right generals, and the left and right captains each have a large army, and there are 8 to 120,000 horsemen under their command, one for every 10,000 people, and the commander is called "ten thousand horses".
In addition, there are left and right day chasing kings, left and right gradual general kings, left and right Huzhi kings, left and right Yu Yu kings, left and right Lu Tu kings, left and right Lingding kings, etc., leading various large and small tribes, and vassal departments, which are equivalent to local state and county guards. The strength of the army ranged from 30,000 to 50,000 horses, and there were also those who could not reach 10,000 horses.
In recent years, under the governance of the Huhan evil, the troops under the jurisdiction of Zuo Dadu have become stronger and stronger, with an army of 130,000. This is not only a loud voice in the seven left-wing departments, but also has a place in the central royal court. At this moment, it is his right-hand man.
"It depends on your Highness, what choice you are prepared to make. β
Nahu Han Xie smiled and said, "If I wait for this time to go south, it will only be for the sake of plunder." Then just by breaking through this Night Wolf Valley, there will be a huge amount of money, countless ink stones, millions of jewels, and even a set of tools and craftsmen who can produce ink armor. In fact, in my opinion, this battle can be over, and I can take millions of slaves, use a few years' worth of goods, and return to the grassland with nearly 10,000 Qin-made ink armors. After this battle, the two million accounts of the left wing will all feel the kindness of His Highness. β
The king of Zuogu Li, Xu Bu, was thoughtful, and the hundred miles of long breath was a gloomy face. After a long time, Xu Bucai shook his head slightly: "I am unwilling to retreat like this." β
He went south this time, not only to plunder some goods and slaves, but to make immortal achievements. made his father change his mind and became the Xiongnu tribes, the unyielding King Tuqi (Prince) and King Zuoxian.
"I see, Your Highness's intention is to continue westward and attack Liangzhou, so that the king's tent and the army on the right wing can go south?"
Seeing that King Zuo Gu Li bowed slightly, Hu Han Xie smiled bitterly: "Then before that, we must first defeat this Great Qin's An Guogong." Otherwiseβ"
Otherwise, the 400,000-strong army going north could easily cut off their retreat and trap them to death.
At this time, Baili Changxi's expression changed slightly, and he said in a condensed voice: "As far as the minister knows, the Liangzhou Mansion army has withdrawn from Xilin City a day ago. β
Hearing this, the other two people around the campfire couldn't help but look at each other. Xilin County is located on the border between Liangzhou and Jizhou, and the Liangzhou army gave up this city without defending it, which was clearly intended to lure the enemy into depth.
If they had heard the news a few days ago, they would have cheered and cheered, but at this time, they were only deeply guarded.
The terrain of Xilin County is really not conducive to the gallop of the army-
"What a martial king!"
Xu Bu sneered and stood up, and then looked at the large dock fort in the depths of the Night Wolf Valley opposite: "This Night Wolf Valley, it's a pity. β
When he heard this, he not only shook his head secretly. I thought to myself that this king of Zuogu Li, although he is a hero, he is not without shortcomings, and he is too greedy for money.
At this time, the place of Night Wolf Valley is indeed attractive. It not only gathered dozens of Great Qin clans in northern Hebei and central Hebei, but also hundreds of millions of gold and silver, and countless ink armor weapons. With the strength of the entire Xiongnu army, it only takes seven or eight days to completely take this dock fort. But now for the left wing of the Xiongnu, the most precious thing is not these possessions, but time.
Previously, due to hidden worries in the rear, the old man's son had different ambitions, and hundreds of thousands of iron cavalry under the command of Su Bu had been stationed here for several days, giving Daqin a chance to breathe. There is no more time left, and it will continue to drag on here. The later the time to go south, the more prepared the Qin army will be, and the more tricky the situation will be.
"What a pity. β
Hu Hanxie looked very open: "Didn't Mr. Baili say that the wolf castle is not enough to store food and water sources this night. Inside, 200,000 people eat and chew horses, and the loss is extremely dramatic. In fact, there is no need for us to wait for a strong attack, just use tens of thousands of horsemen to trap them for a month or two, and they can win without a fight! Where can they hide those gold and silver goods?"
"That's the truth. β
Su Buwei bowed his head, and then turned his gaze to the direction further south: "The Qin army will attack my outpost, and it will definitely deter our army." This king wants to command 350,000 horsemen to go south immediately, what do you think?"
The purpose of that An Guogong was nothing more than to use this battle to deter and make him more cautious when he commanded the Iron Cavalry Army. Buy time for them to set up their defensive lines. The second is to use this small victory to boost the morale of the army and eliminate the fear of his subordinates.
But he didn't let him get his wish, as long as these 350,000 horses were pressed under the city of Suzhou at the fastest speed, he could naturally make all of that kid's plans abort.
Hu Han Evil Phoenix's eyes widened slightly, and then he smiled: "Your Highness is wise! β
As soon as he had finished speaking, he got up and left, without any delay.
And Zuo Gu Liwang Xu Bu took a deep look at this Zuo Dadu Lieutenant, and his eyes were complicated. After that, he ignored the hundred miles of long rest next to him, and turned around and walked directly to a nearby side tent.
There was nothing in this three-foot square tent. There is only one totem jade pillar, and a person is tied to it. It was an old man of indistinguishable age, with white eyebrows, countless strange ornaments tied to the ends of his hair, and his face was full of wrinkles like knife cuts.
Su Bu was expressionless, and knelt down in front of the old man: "Great Shaman! This time, Su Bu is about to fight with the real Qin army. This king heard that the Duke of An Guo was assisted by a skilled Yin-Yang Priest, so he came to ask the great shaman to help me meet the enemy. β
The old man opened his eyes and looked at the king of Zuogu Li in front of him expressionlessly: "I once said that the sun and the moon have shown that my Huns must not move troops within a few years, otherwise there will be a great calamity." If you insist on going your own way this time and leading a large army south, it will only bring tragedy to the left wing of our Huns. β
"I don't believe in heaven!"
Zuogu Liwang Xu Bu snorted softly, his expression was persistent and cold: "If you really care about the luck of my left Hun division, you should do your best to help me Xu Bu is talent, whether it is victory or defeat, you can retain more vitality for my left wing seven divisions." β
The great shaman was silent for a long time, and finally sighed, "I can help you, but you need to spare the ministers." β
