Chapter 757: Hunt and Kill
Turning over Yin Mountain, the cold wind gradually became cold, but fortunately there were sheepskin furs, bad wine and other things prepared by Gao Yun.
The officers and men of the Southern Army are sincere in their meritorious service, their hearts are hot, and their bodies are naturally not afraid of wind and cold.
"I can't imagine that the Northern Army is so easy to speak, no wonder Jiangdong was finally broken by the Great Liang." Huan Shiqian sighed.
As a member of the Huan clan, he knew too well Jiangdong's various flies and dogs over the years, if Jiangdong could have one heart, he would have overcome Shenzhou thirty years ago.
"The glory and disgrace of the Southern Army and the rise and fall of your families are all fought here, and you must sacrifice your life to fight." Xie Xuan took a deep breath of the cold wind, and a cold cold went straight into his heart.
Not only did Gao Yun generously support, but even the fine work and scouts scattered on the grassland came to respond to them, providing all kinds of information about the enemy, and even where to settle down and where the tribes were more friendly to the Central Plains.
Let Xie Xuan find out the reality of the enemy in a very short time.
At this point, how could Xie Xuan not know that the emperor was behind his support?
The Southern Army is standing on the shoulders of the entire Liang State.
The school administration has been operating in Mobei for three years.
"Why don't the general say much, who of us doesn't know how powerful it is?" Mao Anzhi clenched the lance.
The other generals Tan Xuan, Mao Husheng, Zhu Xuan and others also looked serious.
"Advance and retreat are all under my orders, and those who love war and those who are cowardly are all killed!" Xie Xuan took out the momentum of the main general.
"Yui!" The crowd gave up.
"Attack!" Xie Xuan pulled out his long sword and pointed to the northeast, yesterday he made a secret report, the northeast side of the high car department, the weakest strength, only a few days of marching, was left behind.
There were more than 3,000 people in total.
It's not much, but it's also a piece of meat.
The southern army rode out on horseback and marched against the north wind, with heavy armor on their bodies and sturdy war horses under their crotch, which made every soldier extremely relieved.
Even if he dies in battle, his family will have no worries about food and clothing, and his heirs will be given priority to be elected to Shangwutang and truly become the people of Daliang.
People in these years are not afraid of death, but they are afraid of the miserable fate of their families after death.
More than 7,000 horsemen swept northeast in a fierce wind.
In less than two hours, they caught up with the high chariot department, which rode on the grassy knoll with a bow and spear.
Huan Shiqian and Zhu Xuaner took the lead, one left and one right, each leading three or four hundred horsemen to attack from the side.
Arrows were fired from the mound.
The southern army was not afraid, and rushed forward in the face of the few arrows, the arrows smashed on the armor and clanged, and some of the arrows were still made of bone, which was difficult to penetrate the armor of the Liang army.
The southern army picked up the crossbow machine one after another and shot it at the hill, and the enemy army was suddenly in chaos.
"Kill!" Huan Shi was as strong as a mad tiger, and pounced into the flock, flying up and down with a lance in his hand, stabbing several people to death.
Zhu Xuan on the other side was not far behind, with a knife in his left hand and a spear in his right hand, swept through like a whirlwind with his own guards, and the enemy troops suddenly fell in pieces like wheat.
Soon, the brothers Mao Anzhi and Mao Husheng led more than 2,000 horsemen to attack from the front.
The wind swept the clouds.
The enemy army also collapsed at this moment, or scattered as birds and beasts, or directly knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.
Seeing that it was about to swallow up the more than 3,000 high car divisions, the rear army sounded the sound of gold.
Everyone was in the mood, but remembering Xie Xuan's warning in advance, they had to abandon the rout and retreat.
Xie Xuan didn't say a word, and led the army to the east.
Less than an hour after the Southern Army marched, three cavalry armies from the west, north, and southwest approached.
As soon as the enemy retreated, the southern army bit again.
With the news of scouts and meticulous work, they cannibalized the substitute army one by one, and they are not greedy, and they will retreat with one blow.
After traveling thousands of miles all the way, there were more than 5,000 Dai soldiers who died at the hands of the Southern Army, and countless soldiers were defeated and wounded.
Tuoba Shiyijian was furious, and set up ambushes several times, or the army counterattacked, this group of men and horses could always retreat one step ahead, as if they knew this grassland better than the Xianbei people.
As if he had a bad premonition, Tuoba Shi Yijian turned around and retreated towards Daxianbei Mountain.
It is also a place for Xianbei people to escape the cold.
However, the Liang army predicted in advance, ambushed in Gonglushui, attacked it halfway, killed more than 2,000, and calmly retreated.
If it weren't for the heavy snowfall, the casualties would have been heavier.
The repeated failures also made the face of the emperor of Daiguo and the grassland Shan Tuoba Shiyijian gloomy, and many tribes were automatically dispersed, and the momentum of Daiguo suddenly decreased......
Luoyang ushered in the first snow of this winter.
It also received good news from Liaodong and Mobei.
"In the battle of Liaodong, Cui Dudu defeated the enemy army head-on, killing more than 4,000 enemies, Yamen general Li Fu was wearing seven wounds, beheading the enemy general Li Qigen, Liu Khotan Qu Zhen, the rest of the people retreated to Zimengchuan, and met the Xuanjia army, killing more than 5,000 people!" Zheng Lin read excitedly in his voice.
The three generations of the Li family are generals, and Li Yueyan teaches by example, and finally comes out of a fierce man.
Hearing that his son was so violent, Li Yue was first overjoyed, and then worried about his injury, but Cui Jin had no other news to send, indicating that the injury was not serious.
Li Yue still has confidence in the armor of Shanyang Iron Fang.
Mobei Xie Xuan also lived up to his expectations, chasing and killing more than 2,000 miles, although he failed to capture Tuoba Shi Yijian, but he hit the country hard.
In the two battles of Liaodong and Mobei, Tuoba Shi Yijian was finally caught and let out a bad breath.
At the same time, it also verified the combat power of the Southern Army and the Xuanjia Army, as long as the detailed work is properly coordinated, the tactics of small forces to invade are completely feasible.
What Xie Xuan appreciated most about Li Yue was that he knew how to advance and retreat, and when he saw that the weather was getting cold, he did not continue to go deeper, but chose to retreat.
"The three armies are easy to get, but one general is hard to find, Xie Xuan can be described as a famous general!" Wang Meng also praised.
With this successful experience, the counterattack on the steppe will be smoother next year.
"Behind the famous generals, there are countless scouts and meticulous hard work." Li Yue has not forgotten the real heroes.
Yang Luo's contribution was even greater, and without the first-hand information he sent back, Xie Xuan would never have fought so smoothly.
"Your Majesty is very true." Wang Meng nodded.
"Tuoba Shiyi is so bold that he dares to ascend the throne and claim the throne in Danhan Mountain, and next year, I will make him regret not being at the beginning!"
There are no two days in the sky, and there are no two lords for the people.
Tuoba Shi Yijian is called the emperor, obviously he still has delusions about the Central Plains.
This year is just a small test, and next year I will give him a bigger one.
"How's Longyou Cotton?" Li Yue's main concern now is not the war, but cotton.
Once this thing is successful, the bitter cold of the Western Regions, Liaodong, and Mobei will not be a big problem.
Food, clothing, and warmth.
With quilts and cotton clothes, he then selected a few pieces of fertile land in Mobei to build a dock fort, and then selected a garrison of Qiangdi soldiers who were resistant to bitter cold to maintain the rule of Daliang.
At the end of the day, productivity solves the problem.
"40,000 catties have been sent, and Dasi Nongyan can be promoted throughout the country, and the three provinces are considering this matter." Wang Meng asked him to get some cotton quickly.
Li Yue held it in his hand and looked at it carefully.
It is whiter and bigger than last year's cotton, and there are far fewer traces of insect damage.
Although it cannot be compared with later generations, it is very rare to achieve this kind of quality.
"Review as soon as possible, and next year the whole country will implement it, and the people who grow cotton will be exempted from some forced labor and household surveys."
