From the Battle of the Mud Plain to the siege of Maogukou, Qian Xu, who was in the Wind Camp, saw the power of the heavy cavalry of the Tianshan White Horse Battalion, which was completely different from his own Wind Camp.

The starry night was silent, the young Qian Xu rested on the tree on the side of the road, and Sun Lian and Jiang Liao around him were chatting there, and one said that he would erect a monument in front of the old biao long grave in Tulong Mountain when he had money in the future.

It should be said that this old standard chief will not care about these, just buy some good wine for his old man when the time comes, the old standard chief has lived for half his life, and he has never even drunk a sip of authentic green plum wine.

The two of them just said that, Qian Xu next to him kept silent, and at this time, Sun Lian gently pushed the young man next to him, "Xiao Xu, what's wrong with you?" Homesick? ”

Qian Xu shook his head and sighed deeply, "When I was a child, I always thought about when I could go out of the customs and go to Beiban to have a look, but I didn't expect this dream to come true, Brother Sun, Brother Jiang, you see that this Beiban is the same as our Xiangzhou, the sky is full of yellow sand, and there is smoke and dust everywhere, how do you say this kind of place will become a battleground for soldiers?" ”

Sun Lian smiled and was directly opened into the conversation, "You don't know this, this Beiban is not only Yunlian Lege, but also all kinds of other Lege, just like our eighteen states."

Their territory is not all yellow sand and Gobi, there are oasis rivers and fertile land, but it is still much worse than our Central Plains, these barbarians, they always think that one day they can plant the land of our Central Plains, drink the fine wine of the south of the Yangtze River, and enslave the people of our Dafeng. ”

Jiang Liao then said, "But if they want to go south, the first thing they have to pass is our pass, Xiangzhou, Dingzhou, Jingzhou, Sanzhou is the only barrier in the north of Dafeng, once these three states are lost, the north of Dafeng will have no danger to defend, and when the Northern Barbarian cavalry raises troops to the south, Dafeng will have no power to resist." ”

"Then we have done so much for Dafeng, why is the court still so wary of us, and even ...... even forced the old general to death...... "The old general in Qian Xu's mouth is naturally Ning Zhi.

Sun Lian sighed and said, "The imperial court is afraid that we can defeat the Northern Barbarians, and is afraid that we can't beat it, this matter, it's not something that we big-headed soldiers can think about, the general tells us to fight, let's fight, if we die in battle, we can find our name in the grave of Tulong Mountain, then this life will be worth it." ”

Jiang Liao was amused and laughed, "Hahaha, that's right, but I don't want to die so early, I still think that when I am old and discharged from the army, I can go to the Central Plains and Jiangnan to see what the country we have guarded for most of our lives is like." ”

"Huh? Then Lao Tzu is going to have a look, and then the two of us will be together. Sun Lian quipped.

"Whoever wants to be with you, Lao Tzu wants to take his mother-in-law with him, you old face Lao Tzu wants to vomit when he sees it, take you, and lose Lao Tzu's interest." Jiang Liao was disgusted for a while.

"You still dislike me, if Lao Tzu hadn't desperately pulled you back from the battlefield, you would have been stabbed into a sieve by those barbarians."

"It's okay if you don't say it, I'm still angry when I say it, it's not that you have to grab the wine pot of the Northern Barbarian captain, Lao Tzu was tripped over to cover you."

The words of the two of you and me added a lot of laughter to the otherwise silent night.

Qian Xu also laughed, if there was no war, they might have a better life, but there is no such thing as this world.

……

When Zhao Wenzan came to Maogukou, he looked at the white horse and iron horse under the city, and scolded Wei Huaiying's ancestors for eighteen generations in his heart, this old boy really buried a big hole for himself.

Forget about burying the pit, and keep it by yourself, Hongnong directly took away 10,000 elites, and let yourself bring 10,000 old, weak, sick and disabled people to guard here.

In addition, the original 10,000 soldiers in Maogukou were less than 20,000, and under their city were 10,000 Xiangzhou iron cavalry.

But fortunately, they still have a city, and it is not easy for cavalry to attack the city, if there are 10,000 infantry battalions below, then he will directly open the city and surrender.

At this time, under the city, Han Nian and Tian Yi were staring at the Maogukou in front of them and pondering.

"The scout came to report that the elites in Gao City had gone north to Hongnong, and only less than 10,000 remnants of the army had come to Maogukou, what is this Yeluguo calculating, does this not want Maogukou?"

When Tian Yi first saw the scout military report, he didn't believe it, and it wasn't until he confirmed it in every possible way that he recognized this ridiculous fact.

Han Nian frowned after hearing this, "It is said that the Northern Barbarian faction is fiercely disputed, and the old faction of the royal court and the Shaozhuang faction are fiercely competitive, and the lord of this Yunlian Leg, Yeluguo, is a member of the Eight Princes' lineage, that is, a member of the old faction, and Wei Huaiying, who was ordered to come to Yunlian Leg, is the minister of the Young Zhuang faction, so thinking about it, it is not strange to let 10,000 old, weak, sick and disabled come to Shoumao Gukou." ”

"Someone is trying to kill someone with a knife." Tian Yi smacked his tongue and said.

"If you want to kill someone, it depends on whether our knife is fast or not, attacking the city is not the strength of the cavalry, and with the experience of the mud platform and the tile tomb, the defenders of Maogukou will definitely not go out of the city to fight again, if they forcibly attack the city, I am afraid that the gains will outweigh the losses...... Han Nian frowned and analyzed.

Facing the fat of Maogukou, the two generals who had been on the battlefield for a long time actually had a feeling that a tiger was eating the sky and had nowhere to eat.

"Old Han, you have a lot of ideas, you think of a way, this big living person can't be suffocated to death by urine, the eldest prince has already sent a letter, let us fight quickly, I heard that Tie Le Tu has already taken action, and if it drags on like this, I am afraid that there will be variables." Tian Yi looked at Maogukou in front of him and said anxiously.

Han Nian thought for a while, and suddenly had a flash of inspiration, "If you can't attack the city, you can't just let them out and fight them." ”

"Nonsense, I also know, these barbarians are like a turtle, where do they dare to come out, if they dare to come out and fight with us, there are still so many things there." Tian Yi said helplessly.

Han Nian smiled softly, "If you don't come out, then lure them out, the principle of not getting tired of deceit will work anywhere." ”

Looking at Han Nian's ill-intentioned eyes, Tian Yi knew that this old boy was holding back his bad farts again, and immediately smiled, "Old Han, you still have a way, when I go back, I will remember your first merit in front of the eldest prince." ”

"Okay, okay, don't come to this set, you go and prepare, and then look at me." Han Nian turned his horse's head and smiled maliciously.

When Zhao Wenzan at the head of the city watched all the Xiangzhou troops under the city withdraw, he was still a little surprised in his heart, what were they doing? Scared?

"General Qiyu, the Xiangzhou army has all retreated fifty miles overnight, and Xiangzhou is still retreating." The scouts sent out reported their discoveries to Zhao Wenzan in the Northern Barbarian dialect.

But Zhao Wenzan is also a veteran of the battlefield, and he still didn't believe in the sudden withdrawal of the Xiangzhou Iron Cavalry, so he immediately said, "Investigate again, as long as the Xiangzhou army has any changes, immediately report to the general, understand?" ”

"Yes." The Northern Barbarian scouts retreated.

At noon, the scout quickly returned to the city and reported, "General Qiyu, the Xiangzhou army continues to retreat south, and has withdrawn to seventy miles outside the city, there is nothing unusual, but there are a lot of pots and stoves left on the road, which can be eaten by 10,000 people according to rough calculations." ”

"Keep exploring."

In the evening, the scout reported again, "General Qiyu, the Xiangzhou army has withdrawn to a place of eighty miles, and there is still nothing unusual, and there are less than seven thousand stoves left on the road. ”

"Less than seven thousand, keep exploring."

After one night, it was a calm night.

In the early morning of the next day, Zhao Wenzan saw the scout who went to inquire about the whereabouts of the Xiangzhou army, "General, there are less than 4,000 pots left by the Xiangzhou army this time. ”

"Hahaha."

Unlike yesterday, today's Zhao Wenzan laughed when he heard the scout's report, and almost burst into tears.

"Wei Huaiying, Wei Huaiying, why didn't you think that the Xiangzhou army would highlight the withdrawal, or so embarrassed to withdraw, and want to follow the Xiangzhou army to get rid of the old man, you are still too tender, come on, gather soldiers and horses, catch up with this group of Xiangzhou army, and wipe them out."

The adjutant general next to him asked puzzledly, "General, what do you mean by this?" ”

Zhao Wenzan is also a person who is familiar with military books, and immediately explained, "The retreat of the army, to see whether they are really withdrawing or fake, depends on the number of their pots, the Xiangzhou army's pots and stoves have been reduced from 10,000 to 7,000, and now to 4,000, what does it mean, it shows that their people are getting fewer and fewer."

Only when the army retreats in a hurry, will there be a situation where the formation is scattered, taking care of oneself and losing one's other, and there are fewer and fewer soldiers, so this general concluded that these Xiangzhou cavalry heard something and fled in a hurry.

This is really a godsend, the successive defeats of the mud platform and the tile tomb have lost the face of our Yunlian soldiers; Today, General Ben is going to pick up the faces we lost again, and let the royal court see how powerful our Yunlian Legge soldiers are. ”

"The general is worthy of being a general, and his subordinates have been taught." The lieutenant behind him echoed with a flattering expression.

Zhao Wenzan immediately put on his armor and shouted, "Everyone, go into battle with the old man to kill the enemy." ”

A moment later, the sound of horses' hooves at the mouth of the valley was everywhere, and all 20,000 soldiers left the city and galloped south.

A day and a night later, when Zhao Wenzan led the army to the Xiangzhou army camp a hundred miles away, he looked at the empty military camp in front of him, and was stunned, "Strange, what about these Xiangzhou cavalry?" ”

"Woohoo!"

Just when Zhao Wenzan hesitated, there was a sudden sound of sharp arrows breaking through the air all around, and when he looked up, the arrows were as dense as flying locusts, flying towards them like an overwhelming land.

"General, be careful."

The adjutant general next to him hurriedly pulled the old general off the horse, and the next second, screaming again and again, wailing constantly, after a day and a night of marching, these were the old, weak, sick and disabled Maogukou border army was even more physically exhausted, in the face of the arrows in the sky, they didn't even have the strength to block, and all died tragically under the arrows.

After the rain of arrows, the sound of horses' hooves arose, and the soldiers of the White Horse Battalion of the Tianshan Mountains with white horses and heavy armor and the Swift Wind Battalion with thin armor in Tsing Yi poured out from all directions, instantly scattering the 20,000 border troops, and the battlefield was full of stumps and broken arms, and they wailed bitterly.

Han Nian stood aside and looked at the battlefield below, the corners of his mouth curled, "How about this plan." ”

Tian Yi on the side immediately gave a thumbs up and said with heartfelt emotion: "High, really high." ”
