114. Chapter one hundred and fourteenth(1/2)
"Finished."
Li Lian silently said in his heart: Use the battlefield news tips.
"Ding! The host uses the battlefield information tip x1. It detects that the host is in a force - Zhou Dynasty, is in a battlefield position - Yanmen County. The hostile forces are the Huns, Turks, Xianbei, and the neutral forces are Rouran. Successfully used the battlefield information tip."
The battlefield news tip means that the host can use the battlefield news tip to obtain unknown enemy operations, such as army deployment, support army targets and numbers, etc.
"Ding! Successfully detects a cavalry composed of the Huns and Turks outside Sufang County, with a number of 200,000 people."
Sufang County!?
Li Lian stared at the location of Sufang County on the map.
Silently recite in my mind: Continue to use the battlefield news tips.
"Ding! The host uses the battlefield information tip x1. It detects that the host is in a force - Zhou Dynasty, is in a battlefield position - Yanmen County. The hostile forces are the Huns, Turks, Xianbei, and the neutral forces are Rouran. Successfully used the battlefield information tip."
"Ding! Successfully detected a Hun cavalry five miles outside Dai County, with a number of 30,000 people."
What!?Daijun!!
Li Lian's face suddenly changed drastically, and he stood up after a flash of wind.
"Damn it! His target is Beijing!!!"
When the previous dynasty was founded, the north was often threatened by foreign tribes. The capital was moved to Beiping and changed Beiping to the capital. After the founding of this dynasty, foreign tribes such as the Huns and Turks were all ready to move, so Taizu also regarded the capital as the capital to maintain chaos outside.
Daijun only takes three days to get to Beijing!!!
"What did you see!?" He Qi and others couldn't help but feel anxious when they heard the word "Beijing".
Li Lian had no way to explain why he could know that Huhanye sent someone to raid the capital, so he had to immediately run his brain and try to express his thoughts in other ways.
"Come on! Send a scout to investigate the number of people in the Huns and Turkic camps." He turned around and gave an order.
"Also, there is something strange about sending Kuaima to the surrounding areas of Sufang County and Dai County!"
He Qi is worthy of being a veteran of the battle formation. He knows the elegant meaning when he hears the string song. He immediately guessed Li Lian's meaning.
He said seriously: "Are you suspicious of Huhan Xie's plan to attack the east and west?"
Li Lian did not answer explicitly, and asked back: "If the general is in charge of millions of soldiers who can fight well, the general will be desperate. He stationed his troops outside Yanmen and had a stalemate with more than 800,000 soldiers from our Great Zhou?"
The answer is natural!
It was really a stalemate in Yanmen. Judging from the forces of both sides alone, it was enough to be a stalemate for several years.
After thinking about this, the generals' faces became more and more gloomy, and a little panic arose in their hearts.
If it is true as Li Lian said, Huhanye sent a large army to capture Sufang County, and even taking Shang County and going deep into the hinterland of the Great Zhou Dynasty would not be the worst result. I am afraid that Huhanye's men will take a detour and go from Dai County to the center of the Great Zhou Dynasty - the capital!
Due to the Northern Expedition, the three most elite troops in the capital, Tiance Mansion, Lantian Daying and Fengtai Daying, have all emerged. At present, only 20,000 defenders and 7,000 imperial horse prisoners, plus all the other soldiers who can fight are only 30,000.
General Ying Jin of Pingbei hurriedly said, "Marantor, please give the order! Let the last general lead the army back to the capital!" Regardless of whether Li Lian's guess is correct, the capital is really important. The emperor, the emperor and their families are all in the capital, and they dare not even take a risk.
"I am willing to return to the capital together!" The backbone general Xue Songfu clasped his fists together and said.
Li Lian ignored them and directly accused himself of thinking about how to solve the current dilemma.
War is not a child’s thing. If you are brave but not scheming, how can you become the winner?
Li Lian became the champion Hou, not just because of the two emperors’ love for him, nor because of his unparalleled force, but because of his wisdom on the battlefield.
The capital was in danger, and he was more anxious than anyone else.
The people who Li Lian cares about, such as the Supreme Emperor, Jia She, Xiao Zhang, Jia Hu, etc., are all in the capital.
He tried to calm down and pondered the two messages given by the system word by word.
"Ding! Successfully detects a cavalry composed of the Huns and Turks outside Sufang County, with a number of 200,000 people."
"Ding! Successfully detected that there was a Hun cavalry five miles outside Dai County, with a number of 30,000 people."
According to the system, there is a cavalry composed of the Huns and Turks outside Sufang County, with a number of 200,000 people. These 200,000 people have a great chance of raiding from Helan Mountain to the west, so Yunzhong County on the east of Sufang County cannot get news of the passing of the Huns coalition forces. It seems that Sufang County should have been surrounded by 200,000 cavalry from the Huns and Turks. The reason why there is no news is that the Huns and Turks control the important roads around Sufang County and are not allowed to leave the city to seek help or the news is leaked.
The 30,000 Hun cavalry five miles outside Dai County should be a cavalry that was transferred from the camp when Huhanye sent his army to attack the city for several days, so Xiaozhi's spy buried in the Huns coalition attracted attention by the army's siege and did not notice that a cavalry was missing. Now these 30,000 Hun cavalry were either planning to detour and sneak attack the capital, or want to take Dai County and cut off the throat between Yanmen and the capital.
Soon, Li Lian opened his eyes and ordered decisively: "General Anbei Fan Bu, the backbone general Xue Songfu, I ordered you and the two of you to lead the troops to Dai County immediately!" Huhanye was not a risky person. He made plans every time he acted, and probably wouldn't expect only 30,000 cavalry to capture the capital this time. Li Lian inferred that these 30,000 cavalry were to capture Dai County, in order to shake the morale of the Great Zhou army, he also forced his 450,000 army to return to the army to serve the king and carry out the plan to surround Wei and save Zhao.
"The last general obeys the order!" General Anbei Fan Bu and General Xue Songfu held their fists together.
Li Lian did not choose the Pingbei General Ying Jin who recommended himself first because Pingbei General Ying Jin was mostly infantry, and he was not suitable for returning to the army at this time of quarrel. General Fan Bu of Anbei was known for his bravery, and the backbone general Xue Songfu was the best at fighting in the field. The cooperation of the two of them, coupled with the 40,000 men under his command and the 30,000 defenders of Dai County itself, was enough to easily solve the 30,000 Xiongnu cavalry.
As for Sufang County…
"General Fenwei Niu Jizong, General Weilu Gao Kegong, I ordered you and the two of you to lead your troops to rush out in the northwest to support Sufang County. In fact, they joined forces with the defenders of Dingxiang County to detour behind the enemy camp, and took the opportunity to burn its food and grass! They cooperated with the army to attack the enemy's troops in front and back!"
War is a treacherous way. Go far away, pretend to be closer; go nearer, pretend to be far away. Be able to fight, pretend not to fight; be to fight, pretend not to fight. It is true or false, and it is also true.
Sufang County itself is a heavy city on the border, with many soldiers stationed. In addition, Li Lian made a suggestion to the emperor, so that Shangjun would increase his troops to Sufang County. Now there are about 300,000 troops in the garrison of Sufang County. For a moment, the 200,000 cavalry of the Huns and Turks could not conquer Sufang County.
Since this is the case, it is better to deal with the main force of the enemy first and then return to Sufang County to help.
The Huns coalition now has at least 800,000 people outside Yanmen City, and the daily food consumed is astronomical. Moreover, whether it is the Huns, Turks, Xianbei, or Rouran, they are not farming people themselves. The grassland is dry and windy, and is located in a high and cold area, and it is not suitable for most crop growth. It is impossible to grow grain like the Zhou people and be self-sufficient. The food and grass are mainly driven by ordinary tribesmen, and they follow the army. When they have time to eat, the tribesmen quickly slaughter cattle and sheep for food for the soldiers.
As long as all the cattle, sheep, food and grass of the Huns coalition were burned... No, just burn five or six out of ten, the Great Zhou would be able to gain an advantage, take steady steps, and gradually eat up the more than 800,000 troops.
Niu Jizong seemed rough and generous, but in fact he was fine and meticulous. He knew the skills and was able to stand alone, and he was very proud of his generals. Li Lian was relieved to be willing to lead the army alone to take on this important task.
"I will obey the order!" Niu Jizong's eyes were bright, his body was like an iron tower, and his muscles were tangled, as if he had endless strength. The sound was not loud, but it had the power to shock people's eardrums. If ordinary people heard it, they would definitely buzz in their ears.
Huhanye is only over 10 years old this year, and he is the age of the strongest.
At this time, the overlord on the grassland was sitting in his big tent, looking carefully at a picture painted in cowhide
The rough map, ears are listening to the reports from their subordinates.
"Wang, the scout found that Zhou Dynasty reinforcements entered Yanmen City. According to the banner and our spies in the Zhou Dynasty, it can be confirmed that Zhou Dynasty champion Marquis Li Lian led the army to arrive." Hu Luyi said respectfully, with his eyes hanging on the ground, and he did not dare to look at Huhanye at all.
Huhanye didn't know if he didn't listen to him or thought about it, so he ignored him.
The smile on Hu Luyi's face became even more humble, but cold sweat slowly flowed down the back of her head.
One drop, two drops...
After a long time, "Go and call the generals."
After hearing the order, Hu Lu Yi withdrew from the tent as if he had received a general amnesty.
The Manchu and the Huns agreed that since the king returned to the Zhou Dynasty, their whole body became more profound and unfathomable. Although the former king was awe-inspiring and unfathomable, they could still roughly guess. The king now became more and more difficult to see clearly, and no one knew what he was thinking, as if it had become a deep pool that could not be seen through.
Although Hu Luyi, who accompanied the King on the Zhou Dynasty, knew the reason for the change of the king, he knew even more that if he dared to reveal a little bit of the wind, he would definitely die without anyone noticing.
Huhanye looked at the map intriguedly. The Great Huns had not successfully entered the Central Plains for hundreds of years. Now he will personally lead millions of warriors to the south to establish a new dynasty, a dynasty belonging to his Great Huns.
One by one, the Hun nobles dressed in good armor entered the tent one after another.
The old tribe leaders began to look at each other with various signs and exchange various meanings with some invisible gestures.
"Records of the Grand Historian" records: "The Huns do not have documents, but are bound by words."
The Huns did not have their own words, but only used oral language to restrict each other.
Since Huhanye took office, he has vigorously promoted his tribe members to learn Chinese characters, but some older or really dead-witted Hun nobles are still illiterate. However, for many years, although the Hun nobles did not understand words, they did not hinder their creation of their own body language and passed on them from generation to generation.
Just as the last young Hun general, Wuligu, lifted the curtain gently, the older Hun nobles glanced at him with ambiguous eyes, and then made several gestures on their own, with the obvious disdain. The young peers glared at him with envy and hatred. If it weren't for Huhanye's tent, they would have started to "challenge" Wuligu again.
Wuli Geng said nothing, and sat down at the third person below Huhanye's right hand with his eyebrows and eyes lowered.
Seeing that all the nobles had arrived, Huhanye suddenly stood up.
The slashed face looked like lightning, and he was wearing a geese-ling chain mail that he had obtained for a lot of money, his strong arms and calloused tiger mouths all proved that the king on the grassland could step onto a war horse at any time, raise his tiger-headed golden spear and lead the warriors of the tribe to fight.
Under the pressure of this kingly aura, no matter what was being thought about, all the leaders of the Huns lowered their heads, bent down, and touched the ground with their foreheads to express their submission to the wolf king.
"Ten years."
"Since that battle ten years ago, our Great Huns have not gone south for ten years."
"Is it because we are afraid? No! It's just because we need time to prepare. And now! It's time for us to finish and there's a great harvest soon!!!"
"Now in Yanmen City, what we have to face is He Qi, Duke of Zhao of the Zhou Dynasty, and the champion Hou Li Lian who once killed Dong Muhe and killed tens of thousands of warriors in our Great Huns!"
"Tell me! Are you afraid?"
"Not afraid! No fear!" The young generals on the right side below said excitedly.
On the contrary, the patriarchs of the tribes on the left looked at each other, with a little hesitation in their eyes, and they didn't know what they were thinking.
The Huns can be roughly divided into two forces: the young generation promoted by Huhanye and the noble patriarch of the former Da Shanyu Yizhixie era. There is no need to say much about the young generation promoted by Huhanye. They are naturally the most loyal supporters of Huhanye. They have talent and potential and are full of energy. However, due to the short time, they cannot compete with the patriarchs of other large tribes in terms of overall power. The noble patriarchs of the former Da Shanyu Yizhixie era have unknown causes of death and are killed by the former Right Rizhu King Dong Muhe, who was captured and captured by the Zhou Dynasty.
Unlike the young generation who faced the powerful Zhou Dynasty for the first time, their clan leaders still remembered what happened in the battle ten years ago. Whether it was Li Lian's shocking killing of the Huns' warriors, or Hu Hanye's successful murder of the former Right Riju King Dong Muhe, they all felt vividly in their minds.
Huhanye knew that these old foxes might be a little afraid of Li Lian’s cruelty, or they were also a little afraid that he would take the opportunity to settle the tribe leader who was not the same as him, but they were more of arguing with him and waiting for him to distribute the benefits.
"Tell me! Are your bowstrings rotten? Are your swords rolled? The barren grasslands can no longer feed our cattle and sheep, but the greedy and incompetent Zhou people occupy the richest and most abundant land!"
"I promised that after breaking the city, the army will massacre the city and burn and kill and loot for ten days."
Without looking, Huhanye also knew that the eyes of the tribe leader suddenly lit up at this time and was looking at him eagerly.
"The king is wise!"
"When Li Lian killed the warriors of our Great Huns that day, he should slaughter him in the Zhou Dynasty today and avenge him!"
