Chapter 452: No Battles for the Time Being
Cao Zhang is still in the age of youth and enthusiasm.
As the son of Prime Minister Cao Cheng of the Han Dynasty, he himself is on the side of the Han people, facing the invading Hu people, with the highest righteousness, hearing that the Hu people are so hateful, he is even more eager to rush out, find the Hu people to fight hundreds of battles, and kill the Hu people without leaving a piece of armor.
Of course, Cao Zhang can only think about it.
This idea is impossible to realize, and Cao Cao will not let him realize it.
Chen Zhou also felt sad for those people, and said helplessly: "These are all brought by Han Sui, the people of Liangzhou will soon hate Han Sui, if I am Han Sui, I should try to do something to make up for it, then it is not far from him to surrender to us, continue to wait." ”
Cao Zhang asked, "Are we not sending troops at all?" ”
If you send troops now, rendezvous with Han Sui, and the two sides join forces, you can reduce a lot of losses, so that the Xianbei people can't go deep into Liangzhou.
"Don't come out!"
Of course, Chen Zhou knows the benefits of sending troops now.
The strategists around Cao Cao could think of this benefit, but they didn't discuss sending troops, they just had other plans.
"Why?"
Cao Zhang didn't understand.
As strategists, they like to say things that people don't understand, and they like to calculate this and that, as if they can calculate anything.
"If you want to go smoothly and completely subdue Liangzhou, you have to wait."
"When the people of Liangzhou are most desperate, Han Sui will come to surrender, and if we send troops to fight again, the people's hearts will be towards the lord."
"Han Sui's prestige will fall apart."
"If the lord wants to do something in Liangzhou next, it can be easy."
"Also, lure the enemy."
"If we don't send troops, we can lure most of the Xianbei soldiers deep into Liangzhou, and then attack them in groups, maybe we can wipe them out, and none of them will be able to go back."
"The Xianbei tribe in this area of Hexi, after being defeated in this battle, will not be able to invade the south for many years in the future."
"So, we have to wait."
"My lord, they must have thought of this too, and they are also waiting."
"Don't rush into troops."
Chen Zhou explained.
It's just that when Cao Zhang heard it, he felt very cruel, and asked, "According to Mr.'s plan, wouldn't it kill a lot of people?" ”
Chen Zhou said: "There is a sacrifice to gain, if the third prince feels cruel, it is actually not suitable to come to war, let alone fight." ”
Cao Zhang was silent.
I was thinking about whether what Chen Zhou said was right or not, and it was possible that the war was so cruel, whether he wanted to admit it or not, it was so cruel.
"Sir."
At this moment, a crisp voice came.
Ma Yunlu trotted over and said a little excitedly: "Hu people...... The Hu people are here, what should we do? ”
Chen Zhou said unhurriedly: "Keep waiting, Miss Ma don't worry, General Ma is fine, he will definitely come back safely." ”
He repeated what he had just said to Cao Zhang, and continued to wait for other news in the rear army camp.
——
In the vicinity of Tonozawa, there are many villages and small towns.
There are still a lot of people gathered here, and they cultivate and graze their cattle, and their lives are very leisurely.
The Xianbei Hu people in the north have not gone south for a long time, as if they have forgotten the way to the south, and the people here have also forgotten the horror of the Hu people.
Just last night.
The Hu people, who had not appeared for a long time, suddenly appeared and killed them, killing men when they saw them, robbing women and children when they saw them, as well as cattle and sheep, money and grain, cloth, etc.
Those things that can be snatched, the Hu people directly robbed them, and those that can't be snatched away will be burned with fire.
The place where the people originally lived was full of vitality, but now it has been looted by the Hu people, mourning is everywhere, and corpses are everywhere, like purgatory on earth.
Tuoba Jiefen led the army, and after robbing one place, he immediately went to rob others.
The bald Pi Gu seemed to have forgotten, and he had to go to Guzang to find Han Sui for revenge, but now all he thinks about is burning, killing and looting, following the Xianbei soldiers who went out to fight, and looting frantically, all of them are full of harvest.
"Damn!"
The scouts sent out by Han Sui originally wanted to find out what the movements of the Xianbei people were.
But before the Xianbei army saw it, they saw a mess in front of them, and there were corpses of the people of Liangzhou everywhere.
The scout is also from Liangzhou, and when he saw this scene, a wave of anger erupted in his heart, but he couldn't do anything but go back and report these things.
Han Sui had already led his troops to the vicinity of the section of the city wall that Yang Qiu said, and set up troops to ambush, but he couldn't wait for the Xianbei people to appear, but he waited for the news.
The crowd was furious, furious, and the sound of scolding continued in the army.
They all gritted their teeth, wanting to cut those Xianbei people with a thousand knives and put them to death.
"Envoy, what should I do?"
The candidate asked.
"Envoy, I suggest going to war."
Zhang Heng said: "We still have more than 3,000 cavalry, attacking with cavalry, raiding the enemy's rear, those Hu people must be angry when they see us coming, they must be angry to chase us, keep chasing south, give up plundering the people." ”
His suggestion was approved by everyone.
Use cavalry to attract the attention of the Xianbei people, the cavalry is very fast and can escape, and the Xianbei people will not continue to kill and plunder when they see the cavalry attacking.
"Envoy, I'm coming!"
Liang Xinglang said.
"Envoy, I can too."
Cheng Yin's second opening echoed.
The other generals said that they could do it one after another, and they were furious again.
"General Liang, General Hou, you each lead the cavalry to attack, raid the rear of Xianbei, and lure them here."
Han Sui finally adopted Zhang Heng's suggestion, and said, "The others will follow me and continue to wait for the ambush." ”
"Yes!"
Liang Xing and Hou Xuan said in unison.
The task was arranged, and they led the cavalry to rush out of the Great Wall.
The cavalry galloped, and the speed of the war horses was fast.
After running wildly, I finally saw a group of Xianbei people who were plundering.
They are just a small group of people, they are killing a village, and the people in the village have been almost killed, and the things that should be robbed are almost gone.
But those Xianbei people, they don't know how presumptuous their laughter is, and they are particularly arrogant.
The people who were plundered and killed, crying in a piece, were completely overwhelmed.
"Damn it!"
Hou Xuan shouted angrily: "Brothers, follow me into the Hugou and kill ......"
As soon as his angry voice fell, he took the lead in rushing forward and killing the Xianbei people who were looting in front of him.
Liang Xing didn't speak, but his red eyes had already shown his anger, and he was also furious, and the two led the cavalry to kill fiercely.
The Xianbei Hu people, who were happily looting, did not expect that there would be cavalry from Liangzhou to kill.
Caught off guard, the cavalry rushed past and fell many Hu people.
The remaining Xianbei people fled in embarrassment.
But no matter how fast they are, they can't be faster than war horses.
There were not many Xianbei people who looted here, only hundreds, and they were all killed by them soon.
"Keep killing!"
Liang Xing shouted.
They rode their horses and looked for the other, plundering Hu people.
Those who were rescued, the people in the village, were grateful to Liang Xing and them at this time.
The cavalry battle began.
The Xianbei people, who were scattered and looted, were severely injured and killed at a loss.
