Chapter 476: Driving the Tiger and Devouring the Wolf?

"Your Majesty! Marshal! That's ......" Yuan Tian's face was full of shock.

Beihu Junchen looked at the north with the help of the high ground and was shocked.

The cavalry in the distance was black, and all the horses wore a layer of cotton or linen.

The soldiers on horseback were almost all blonde and blue-eyed, wearing only chain mail in the front row, and the light cavalry in the back row also wore only single clothes, and some even played shirtless.

The handsome flag in front of the army and the battle flag in the center, the center of the flag is embroidered with a blue six-pointed star.

"The Kingdom of Heaven and Sun is our ally, why are their people in this area? Are you going to plunder the 'two-legged sheep' here? The Wind Emperor was shocked and angry, so he went over to question.

"Your Majesty!"

Huyanche immediately rode his horse and stopped him.

"The number of the other party should start at 40,000, don't forget, we have nothing now, and we can't even keep the wolf city!"

Emperor Feng's face was bitter: "I understand, we must find a way to use this Tianri cavalry to fight a decisive battle with Liang Xiao, and follow the example of Zhuge Hui who assisted the Great Zhou Gaozu to use strategies to drive the tiger and devour the wolf!" ”

Yuan Tian stepped forward and said: "The ministers went to negotiate with them, and said that our army and Liang Xiao were both defeated, and finally lost, and were chased by Liang Xiao to the area of Monan, and His Majesty is willing to pay tribute to the ministers and be loyal to the country of Tianri......"

Emperor Feng understood, took out three rare treasures from his bag, gritted his teeth and said: "Lower your posture, as long as you can drive the tiger and devour the wolf, and promise them all the conditions, including providing the 'two-legged sheep' ......"

"Yes!"

Yuan Tian was ordered to take Baoyu to visit the troops of the Tianri Kingdom, but was intercepted by the Tianri cavalry.

"I am Yuan Tian, the prime minister of the Huns, and I want to see the marshal of your country, Benjamin!"

Another half a month passed......

In Monan, Liang Xiao's troops finally came to a hundred miles south of Wolf City after days of marching and set up camp.

Liang Xiao held a secret letter in his hand.

Before he set off from Yanzhou, Sima Ling, the commander of Xuanwei, specially handed over Duan Yunyi's secret letter to him.

There's a lot in the secret letter.

For example, if he does his best, even if the trip faces the worst outcome, the court will definitely not blame him.

In the process of sweeping the desert, he is responsible for all decisions and represents the Son of Heaven.

If the enemy resists stubbornly, or encounters a more unimaginable situation, or even has to be criticized by the history books, please rest assured that he will do it, and she will bear it on her shoulders.

The only hope she and Duan Yunsleeve had for him was to ask him to return safely, and then arrange a royal marriage contract for him.

She is the king of a country, but after all, she is still a girl under the age of twenty, and she dare not imagine the future of losing him.

Liang Xiao's heart was a little melancholy.

In this day and age, wars between nations are brutal.

During the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Wei Qing and Huo Qubing expelled the Xiongnu, and sometimes the Xiongnu tribes fled in a hurry, and there would be miscarriages of pregnant women on the way.

These are inevitable circumstances, and no one can guarantee absolute, eternal righteousness.

He had an awareness when he came, and he tried his best to disintegrate the nomads in the desert, but he must not let more Great Zhou soldiers pay for their lives because of his soft heart, and he must not hesitate when he should be ruthless.

But now, there is a girl who will definitely bear all the infamy for him, and even if he does not agree, she will definitely use the power of the emperor to achieve it.

To do this, he must be careful about the impact, but he must not ignore the lives of his soldiers because of the effect.

"Let's look at the situation, if it really can't be perfected, it's a big deal to hide it from her......"

Liang Xiao looked at the north, full of heat.

His father's head is still hanging at the gate of Wolf City, and it is said that there are still 100,000 soldiers' heads around Wolf City, I don't know what the current situation is.

Will the Beihu people receive the news and trample on their skulls in order to vent their anger?

In the military system of the Great Zhou Dynasty, there are also "good families".

Among the tens of thousands of people who accompanied him on his northern expedition, there were thousands of soldiers whose fathers were martyred in the year of the capital move.

The reason why Liang Xiao was able to quickly control the Yanzhou army was that the good family in the Yanzhou garrison played a certain role.

With the same hatred and hatred, there are people who are willing to avenge their ancestors and give them higher treatment, and they are naturally happy and convinced.

Now, this group of soldiers is clearly showing eagerness.

Actually, he was also a little anxious, but the army was moving fast enough.

Two and a half months have passed since the Western Expedition, and in the winter desert, the speed of the daily march in the last month has definitely exceeded fifty miles, which is already quite an astonishing efficiency.

Of course, the comparison of the maps of Wenren's clan and Dongye Canghai, coupled with his knowledge of the geography of the desert, and the captives as guides, provided a lot of help to ensure that the army could find a fertile place with water and grass in time, and occasionally even find a small number of trees and add some firewood.

In this northern expedition, more than 60,000 horse-drawn carriages and ox carts were prepared, and more than 30,000 cavalry and infantry served as temporary coachmen.

Later, the Guanlong cavalry knew that their combat effectiveness and endurance were almost inferior, and they were even willing to replace the work of this part of the soldiers.

Liang Xiao only kept part of the vehicle that was consumed in case of emergency, and the rest was used as firewood.

The preparation was very good.

But how many prisoners can be escorted depends on the situation in Wolf City.

Judging from the situation of 200,000 soldiers raised by the Beihu people, there are at least 500,000 Beihu people in the Monan area, of which there are at least 100,000 in Wolf City.

On the march every day, Liang Xiao certainly did not forget to send scouts in all directions to deal with all emergencies.

The scouts from the north marched earlier than the army, and today a party of fifteen men finally returned.

Fifteen people, each with an ugly face.

"Marshal! We wandered twenty miles south of Wolf City, and found countless skulls piled up in the desert, looking old, some of them weathered......"

Hearing this, Liang Xiao's face sank.

"It should be the skull of the Great Zhou Heroic Soul Gate back then!" This is the second time Zhuge Ding can't help but be anxious.

Chang Polang and Wang Pojun were also anxious.

There are also several children of the Zhuge family who broke off with Liang Xun, and the final fate can be imagined.

Among the 100,000 heroic souls, 5,000 belonged to the Guanlong army, and most of them came from the three of them.

"Marshal! The last general will ask Ying to destroy the Beihu Yu Party! ”

Mu Lingxiao and the others got up one after another to ask for battle.

Liang Xiao sighed: "Speed up the march tomorrow, and be sure to occupy Wolf City within two days!" ”

After the news spread, deducting some of the people who returned to the mouth of the Great Wall, there are currently a total of 80,000 Great Zhou soldiers, and the crowd is indignant.

The next day, 80,000 soldiers rushed to the north in a rage, marching seventy miles.

Early in the morning of the third day.

Beihu royal court, tents and cattle and sheep all over the mountains.

The wolf city is no longer as quiet as it used to be, and the soldiers and civilians are in a hurry, all of them look like they are running away at any time.

Emperor Feng's eldest son, King Tibai of Beihu Zuoxian, was anxiously waiting for news at the moment, his face pale.

Not long ago, bad news came from the south, Emperor Feng's 200,000 troops were almost wiped out in the hands of Liang Xiao, and he was trying to find a way to collect the western army in order to return to China as soon as possible, so that he could mobilize the people of Beihu in advance and prepare to withdraw to Mobei.

But he waited for more than a month, and there is no new news until now.
