Chapter 0711: The Deceased
Ran Min led 80,000 Wei cavalry to attack the Persians, and Shapur II successively sent people like Murong Ke to ask for help, but the latter seemed unimpressed and did not respond.
Feng Budo, who was beside Murong Ke, couldn't sit still, got up and said, "Great Sima, why don't you send troops to rescue the Persians?" If the Wei army defeats the Persians, its next target will be our army, and the morale of the Wei army will be high, but I am afraid that it will be difficult to deal with. ”
"Feng Budo, you should know about the battle of Yique, right?"
"I've heard a little."
"How similar is the current battle to the Battle of Ique during the Warring States period? It's just that he Ran Min is not in vain, and I, Murong Ke, am not a tyrannical kite! ”
The Battle of Yique was a battle in which the Qin army led by the general Bai Qi to annihilate the combined forces of Korea, Wei and the Eastern Zhou in Yique in order to open the passage to the Central Plains in the east.
During the war, the Qin general Bai Qi aimed at the weakness of the Han and Wei armies watching each other and not wanting to attack first, and pinned down the main Han army of the coalition army with a small number of troops, and attacked the weaker Wei army with the main force.
The Wei army was unprepared, rushed to the battle, and was quickly defeated. The Han army was frightened, and its flanks were exposed, and it was flanked by the Qin army, and fled in defeat.
Bai Qi took advantage of the victory and waved his army to pursue, completely annihilating 240,000 Han and Wei allied troops, capturing Yique, and capturing several Wei cities and most of the areas east of Anyi in Korea. Wei and South Korea ceded land and sued for peace.
Feng Budo sighed and said: "Great Sima, the last general knows that you want to borrow the hand of the Wei army to weaken the power of the Persians, and you want to take advantage of the fisherman." But once the Persians are defeated, how can our Yan army defeat the Wei army on its own? Don't forget, although we have 200,000 soldiers and horses, some of them are the armies of the countries we conquered, and their combat effectiveness is really not too strong, at least far inferior to the Wei army. ”
Hearing this, Murong Ke said faintly: "The Wei army has not much food, so Ran Min wants to urgently seek the opportunity for a decisive battle and succeed in a battle." But that's why we can't let him get his way. If we can't defeat the Wei army, we will also consume him! ”
In the place where the Wei army and the Persian army fought fiercely, Shapur II could not wait for the reinforcements of the Xianbei people, and saw that the iron cavalry of the Wei army had broken his formation, rushing left and right, and the soldiers and horses that had just been gathered were defeated in an instant.
Shapur II finally couldn't take it anymore and ordered the whole army to retreat.
As soon as the Persians retreated like this, the whole line collapsed!
These yellow-haired and gray-eyed Persians immediately spread their feet and fled in all directions, and behind them were Wei Cai on war horses. How can a two-legged man outrun a four-legged warhorse?
The Wei army pursued all the way for twenty miles, slaughtering more than 100,000 Persian soldiers, and Shapur II fled to the south with only a few hundred cavalry.
The next day, the Wei army attacked the Xianbei people's camp again, but Murong Ke seemed to have been prepared for defensive warfare and built a strong camp.
Murong Ke seemed to want to consume the Wei army here, and Ran Min also realized this, so he retreated and wanted to retreat. But where can Murong Ke let him get his wish?
Murong Ke seized the favorable opportunity and took advantage of the retreat of the Wei army to decisively lead 50,000 light cavalry to attack and kill the past, blocking the way of the Wei army. With the continuous invasion of the Xianbei cavalry, the Wei army was overwhelmed and suffered heavy losses.
Ran Min had no choice but to leave part of his troops behind, and he led the main army to continue to retreat. But Murong Ke chose to chase and fight fiercely, chasing all the way, so the Wei army and the Xianbei army started a big battle, facing each other in the wilderness near Mulu City.
Looking at the Xianbei army with a well-organized army on the opposite side, Ran Min's expression was quite solemn.
Over the years, under the leadership of Murong Ke, the Xianbei people have established hegemony in Europe, and even overwhelmed the Roman Empire and conquered many European countries.
Among these Xianbei troops, the Xianbei people are the main body, but there are more blonde and blue-eyed aliens. After all, in the process of moving west, the Xianbei people also absorbed many Hu people, as well as Baiyi, to create a powerful Xianbei Empire.
"Is Murong Ke here? My emperor wants to have a meeting with Murong Ke! ”
In the phalanx of the Wei army, a junior colonel rode out and shouted at the mighty Xianbei army.
Not long after, there was a commotion in the phalanx on the opposite side, and Murong Ke, who was wearing a helmet and armor, then drove his horse out, without a single entourage. And Ran Min also came out single-handedly, met with Murong Ke in front of the two armies, and then sat on the ground.
I haven't seen him for many years, Ran Min is already an old man over half a hundred years old, with a weather-beaten face, two deep-set eyes, deep and bright, looking very divine, and his hair is also very neat.
And what about Murong Ke?
At this time, Murong Ke didn't have much meat on his body, and he was as thin as an old osprey. But the tanned face, the short gray beard was particularly spiritual, and the pair of deep-set eyes were particularly bright. It's rare to see such sharp and bright eyes.
"Murong Ke, I haven't seen you for many years, you are already old, so old...... I don't even recognize you anymore. Ran Min sighed.
Murong Ke smiled: "Yes." Emperor Wei, the years are not forgiving, you and I are already old people over half a hundred years old, and half of our bodies are in the ground! It's been more than ten years since we said goodbye last time, right? ”
Ran Min bowed slightly: "It's been more than ten years." Murong Ke, speaking of which, we are old people, you and I have been opponents for more than 30 years, and you have always been my confidant. Huan Wen, Murong Hao, Pu Hong, Yao Yizhong and others, these unborn heroes are all dead one by one, without these opponents, I am very lonely. Fortunately, I have you, if I don't get rid of you, I really don't feel at ease, I really can't look at death! ”
"Hahahaha, I can be regarded as a real opponent by Emperor Wei, I don't know if I should be afraid? Or should I feel honored? ”
"Murong Ke, this should be our last battle, right?"
When Murong Ke heard this, he nodded and said, "Yes." This is our last battle! If I don't die, the Xianbei Empire will not be destroyed, after all, it will be a big trouble for your Wei State. If you don't die, the Great Wei Empire is still there, and the Xianbei Empire will never have peace! After this battle, you may live or die, maybe we won't die, but the war between the Wei Empire and the Xianbei Empire will not end until one side falls! ”
"You're right. However, I always believe that victory will belong to the Wei Empire! My empire will rule the world! ”
Ran Min said domineeringly: "Where the rivers go, the sun and the moon shine, they are all Wei soil!" ”
"It's just your delusion!" Murong Ke smiled dumbly and said, "You won't succeed." Emperor Wei, you are over half a hundred years old, how many years do you have to live? ”
"Haha, I can't do it, it doesn't mean that my son can't do it, my grandson can't do it!"
Hearing this, Murong Ke shook his head and said, "Who knows? Emperor Wei, let's fight. ”
"Fight!"
Leaving this sentence, Ran Min and Murong Ke returned to their respective military formations and began to dispatch troops.
With a "choking" sound, Ran Min pulled out his sword, pointed at the phalanx of the Xianbei people opposite, and said sharply: "Go to war-"
"Kill!"
The Wei army and the Xianbei army attacked almost simultaneously, and they did not hesitate in the slightest, nor did they have the concept of defense, nor did they use bows and arrows.
The Wei army was like a huge fiery red tide, and the Xianbei army was like a black steel torrent, sweeping out a large area of smoke and dust in the vast yellow earth, and in an instant, the two armies collided together.
