Rumble - Kill!

A series of rumbling and rushing sounds came into Fro's ears, which made his mind shake and his whole body trembled and quickly came back to his senses.

When he looked up, he saw three Han generals striving horses and soldiers slashing their personal guards, and now they are only more than ten steps away from him, and they are about to kill him. Suddenly, Yu Fuluo's expression changed suddenly. He could no longer care about his eyes to die with his eyes. He got up and turned over. Then he turned his head and ran away quietly, as if he saw that the situation was not good.

At this moment, Yu Fuluo seemed to forget that he was the commander of the army, and was responsible for the lives of more than 100,000 troops. The success or failure of the battle to capture the Beidi County of Liangzhou was here. He even forgot that he was the initiator of this battle, and the reason why he joined forces with various troops to invade Liangzhou was not just a simple plunder, but also shouldered a very important mission.

However, when all these beautiful original intentions collide with their own lives, Yu Fuluo chose to escape without hesitation. In other words, preserving his life is the first priority in his heart, and nothing else matters.

Therefore, when he felt that his life was threatened, his first reaction was not to lead the crowd to fight bravely or try his best to save the defeat, but to turn around and run away quickly.

At this time, Yu Fuluo no longer fantasized about defeating the Western Liang army head-on, nor did he expect to capture Chiyang City, nor did he have the intention to avenge the old Huns. The top priority in front of him was to escape.

A small halberd can send the old Huns over 60 years old to the underworld. Who can guarantee that there will be no second small halberd that suddenly flew to seize his life in Yu Fuluo?

You should know that the old king of the Huns is not an ordinary Hun general, nor a weak and incompetent old man. He is the old leader of the Southern Xiongnu tribe with the oldest qualifications and most respected status. His identity is equivalent to that of the Han Dynasty. When he was young, this old man was one of the few warriors in the tribe and was famous throughout the Southern Xiongnu tribe. After four generations of the Huns, he was highly respected.

In addition, the old Huns King was also a key figure in Yu Fuluo's return to the Xiong territory and succeeded the position of Shanyu. As long as he could win his support, Yu Fuluo could justify the inheritance of Shanyu and take over hundreds of thousands of people from the Southern Xiongnu. He took over tens of thousands of tribes and became a powerful force that was not weaker than the princes of the Central Plains. Perhaps under his leadership of Yu Fuluo, the Southern Xiongnu would have the opportunity to advance to the Central Plains and further expand the territory of the Xiongnu in the future. By then, he would become the most wisest and most powerful Shanyu in the Southern Xiongnu in the past century, leaving his name for all generations.

Unfortunately, all this turned into a bubble when the Huns died suddenly. Yu Fuluo's long-awaited return to the tribe and inherited the Shanyu was stranded again, and he missed a great opportunity in vain. However, these things are really not worthy of truth compared to his own life. If he could not even save his life, what does the Shanyu's position have to do with him?

The reason why Yu Fuluo, who had been fighting on the battlefield for many years, survived to this day is because of his quick response ability to judge the situation and immediately left when the opportunity was not good. Even the 30,000 Xianbei cavalry could not stop the Han generals' rush. In less than half an hour, he was defeated by the Han cavalry and fled in all directions. What a powerful combat power!

In addition, there was a shout of killing sound in the sky from the rear of the army, Yu Fuluo did not have to deliberately look back and watch, and knew that he and the army had been trapped. He was ambushed in advance by the Han army and attacked from front to back, and the defeat was decided.

In the flash of lightning, Yu Fuluo didn't have to think about it. He turned around and did not stop for a moment. He rushed into the Huns' cavalry formation, hid in the army, and stayed away from the three Han generals.

Not only did the Han people know this truth, but Yu Fuluo also knew the three flavors of it. Over the years, he has gone through danger countless times and escaped without hesitation. What he relied on was not how brave the Huns' war cavalry were, nor how powerful the soldiers under his command were, nor on his own bravery, but on his instinctive reaction to danger and his extremely sensitive speed of escape.

"Don't leave. Come with your life!"

Dian Wei, who failed to kill Yu Fuluo just now, was watching Yu Fuluo's movements while fighting. Therefore, the moment Yu Fuluo plucked his horse and fled, he was discovered by Dian Wei. He immediately shouted loudly, rushed left and right, and rushed straight to Yu Fuluo who was fleeing in panic.

"I'm still standing there, hurry up and stop him and kill the Hangou!"

Hearing the sound of chasing behind him, Yu Fu's Roman whip flew and his escape speed became faster. At the same time, he sternly shouted at the group of dazed personal soldiers and the Hun generals, and ordered them to intercept Dian Wei and fight against the formation.

Indeed, the personal guards and the Southern Xiongnu generals who were protecting Yu Fuluo were stunned at this moment. At the beginning of the war, the powerful and brave attack of the Han cavalry had already made them dumbfounded, and they were stunned and timid. Then the Huns Old King suddenly died, which even more shocked the Huns generals and had no master. Now the central army is still there, and the army is not in chaos, the commander Yu Fuluo turned around and ran away. This move caught many barbarian generals off guard, short-circuited their minds, blank in their minds, unclear why, and at a loss.

They could not understand no matter what, the Han army was weak and had been huddling in the city for a month and did not dare to go out of the city to fight. Why did the magical weapons fall into the sky overnight? There were Han army inside and outside the city?

Seeing the Han army cavalry rushed forward fiercely, and broke through the Xianbei battle formation in an instant, the Huns fighting cavalry guarding the central army were inexplicably shocked. In addition, the Han army, which was crowded behind, penetrated two slashes from behind, and the two wings were defeated. In addition, Yu Fuluo turned his head and ran away. This made the barbarian generals unwilling to kill the enemy and had no fighting spirit. The first reaction was to escape, just like the commander Yu Fuluo, who saw that the opportunity was not good, immediately "retreat" immediately.

In an instant, Yu Fuluo fled, and a group of barbarian generals followed, and they all ran without saying a word. So much so that when thousands of barbarian soldiers were about to go forward to rush forward, they found that the generals were missing. Then they turned their heads to observe and saw their respective generals fleeing with the commander Yu Fuluo.

The coach and generals ran away, so what if the soldiers were supposed to be?

Dada dada--Boom!

Suddenly, more than 40,000 central cavalry, who had not yet participated in the battle, turned their horses from the front to the back formation, and rushed to "retreat". The barbarian soldiers who were attacked by the Jinqiu cavalry and the county government soldiers on both sides were not naughty. Seeing the chaos of the central army, how could they sit idly? Thousands of two-wing infantry soldiers ran to the rear camp at random, running at a very fast speed, compared with the chaotic central cavalry. The retreat speed was even higher than that of the chaotic central cavalry. The soldiers on both wings were both infantry. If they charged in the battle, they naturally did not run faster than the cavalry. However, if the army retreated, it was unknown who was faster and who was slower.

Of course, people with two legs do not run faster than those with four legs. But this is the result under normal circumstances. If the war cavalry is crowded together, blocking the front and behind, it is a different matter. The infantry can move flexibly, and then seize the gap and get into it, and then throw away the bags all over the body and run wildly. In this way, infantry still runs faster than cavalry. They step like flying, and can run more than a hundred steps in the blink of an eye, quickly leaving the battlefield.

"Hahaha!" Just as more than 100,000 barbarians were fleeing in panic, a hearty laughter sounded from the North Gate Tower.

Then Li Li, Dian Wuxia and Ma Yunluo appeared on the top of the city. Lu Su, who was responsible for staying in the city, stood beside Li Li, laughing happily. The joy was hard to express.

Looking down at the chaotic barbarians under the city, Dian Wuxia was overjoyed and said with a smile: "There are more than 100,000 barbarians, with strong soldiers and strong horses, and are in full force, but they are actually a group of mobs! Thirty thousand Xianbei cavalry, more than 45,000 Huns war cavalry, and seven thousand Qiang cavalry, and nearly 100,000 war cavalry alone. In addition, there are nearly 100,000 war cavalry, plus 50,000 white wave infantry, the mighty army of 150,000 is now so vulnerable!"

"What my sister said is very true." Ma Yunluo continued to echo: "These barbarians look fierce and fierce on the surface, with burly and strong bodies, with skillful crossbows and scimitars, and skillful bows and horses, but in fact they are a group of ruthless people. If they meet cowardly people or Han army with fear, these barbarians will become more and more brave and cruel. They will look fierce and fearless; however, once they meet people or troops with more courageous combat power than them, they will be timid and afraid of death and run faster than rabbits. Not only the Huns, but also the Xianbei, Wuhuan and Qianghu."

After hearing this, Lu Su nodded happily and said with some emotion: "On weekdays, these barbarians plundered the villages and towns of the Han Dynasty, burned, killed, robbed, and committed all kinds of evil. They were not ashamed of being ashamed of but proud. They have long been accustomed to doing this, as if they were born like this. In contrast, my brother has acquiesced to the voluntary army of our army in the past two years, but they are not favored by scholars and gentry. It seems that we are doing this against the will of heaven and deviating, and have been criticized by many privately.

For three hundred years, the Han people have been no longer Han people in the Han Wu period. Since the Eastern Han Dynasty, the people and the court have enjoyed peace for too long. The gentry and tyrants have been living up to their superiors. The people yearn for peace. The dignitaries and nobles and superiors respect each other and respect the foreign races, and they try to educate foreign countries with politeness and benevolence. However, our policy of politeness and benevolence is pedantic and cowardly in the eyes of the barbarians. Therefore, they will plunder the Han territory after the autumn harvest, burn, kill and plunder, and run rampant. Once our dynasty sends troops to fight, they will bow down and surrender. After our Han army retreats, they will still act recklessly and invade our Han territory and the people.

Since ancient times, the strong have always been respected. Whether it is gentle and kind or strong suppression, first of all, we must be strong enough to shock the villain. Otherwise, all kindness will be cowardly and bullied in the eyes of foreign countries. These barbarians who rely on their courage and ruthlessness have never believed that there is still mercy in the world. They only advocate force, and there is no way to talk about education. Therefore, I agree with the strategies implemented by my brothers. If you want to completely educate foreign countries, you must first beat them to obey, dare not resist or be able to fight, and then use Confucian education and appeasement. This is the right way!”

Hearing Lu Su's words, Li Li turned his head to look at him in surprise, and smiled knowingly: "I was surprised by Zijing's words. I thought Zijing was from the Jianghuai River Town and was born in a gentry. He should have a kind and kind attitude towards foreign countries. Unexpectedly, Zijing had an insight into the world and had a unique eye. He could see the pros and cons of foreign countries around the Han Dynasty. It was really rare to have a unique understanding of the pros and cons of foreign countries."

Amid the laughter, Li Li calmly said: "By the heart, I never discriminate against any race. As long as all races can live in harmony, I will not exclude all races coexisting in the world. However, I always adhere to the words of Emperor Wu of Han: Those who offend me, who will be punished even if they are far away. The people of our Han have never been bullying the weak, and the land of Yanhuang is not a country of war and bloodthirsty killing. We love peace and yearn for a peaceful and prosperous era. But we should always have a sense of crisis and enrich the people and strengthen the army. Once we encounter any provocation or invasion, we will definitely give a thunder blow to make them surrender or destroy. This northern expedition. One is the imperative to pacify the northern border, and the other is the northern barbarians have been evil for a long time. Since we have the ability to recover our hometown, we will definitely not allow the barbarians to rage, and we will swear to eliminate all evil things. We will purge all foreign races in the northern border in one fell swoop!"

Lu Su nodded happily and said thoughtfully: "What my brother said is very much. However, our army is not optimistic at the moment. In addition to the Western Regions, there are also Hanzhong Zhang Lu peeking in the south. The heroes of the Central Plains in the east are eyeing each other. The war in the north is underway. If our army takes too long to pacify the northern border and loses too much force, once the war in the Central Plains breaks out, it will be extremely unfavorable to our army. There is another crucial factor that must be paid attention to, that is, although we have a lot of money in our hands, we have not been able to exchange money for food because of the war. In this way, once the war lasts for a long time, our army will face pressure on food and grass again, and may be worried about not being able to afford food and grass."

Li Li nodded slightly and said with a smile: "Zi Jing is extremely worried. However, I have planned the matter of food and grass for a long time, and I believe it will be clear within half a month. If the plan is successful, even if our army does not use money and property, it can guarantee that there will be no shortage of food and grass for half a year. If the plan is not completed, then we can only go out and fight quickly!"

"Oh, brother has any plans?" Lu Su was surprised and asked in a low voice: "I don't know where the food and grass come from? Should I really borrow grain from the Zhen family to fight and then slowly repay the Zhen family after the war?"

"Zhen family? Hahaha!" Li Li shook his head slightly and chuckled, "Although the Zhen family has a large number of grass, it can indeed solve the urgent problem, but it is not enough to support the needs of the army of more than 100,000 or even 200,000 to 300,000 troops. After all, the Zhen family is a merchant family and never does business at a loss. It is really easy to borrow but not easy to repay. It must pay a certain price. Moreover, the reason why I value the Zhen family is not to plan for the Zhen family's money and grain, but to borrow the Zhen family's commercial channels all over the world to drive the circulation of goods in Xiliang prefectures, thereby driving the development of Xiliang's business and improving the living conditions of the people. Therefore, before a last resort, I will not borrow food and wages from the Zhen family, nor will I rob it forcibly. Otherwise, why should I do my best to move the Zhen family to Chang'an? Wouldn't it be more convenient to directly rob it?"

Lu Su nodded in agreement and said softly: "What my brother said is very much, and this is the concern of my foolish brother. No prince can rely on a large family or merchant, just like Lu Buwei in the pre-Qin period, which is easy to borrow but not repay, so that the end of the day will not be lost, causing the disaster to cause Xiao Wall."

Speaking of this, Lu Su asked curiously: "I wonder how my brother can solve the dilemma of our army's shortage of food and grass?"

"Princes!" Li Li said two words with a smile, then smiled and turned his head to look at the battlefield under the city.

Dongdongdongdongdongdong!

On the top of Chiyang City, the war drums rumbled, and three strong men shook their arms and beat the war drums on the three sides to a loud sound, shaking the world.

"Don't let the thief chief go and kill him!"

On the battlefield under the city, Dian Wei opened and closed his halberds, shouted loudly, and took the lead, staring at Yu Fuluo's voice and chasing him relentlessly. Behind him, the two generals Zhang Liao and Xu Chu were heading together. They were both generals who were good at using long-handled swords. The swords were scattered, and the whole body was covered with barren ground within more than ten steps, and no one could stop them.

The two armies fought together in total. If they rely solely on the strength of Dian Wei, Zhang Liao and Xu Chu, even if they are not brave enough to be the ones that are not worthy of. Therefore, the 20,000 Iron Cavalry of the Huben Camp and the 5,000 Jin Qi Guards, and more than 10,000 county government soldiers led by Zhou Yu were the main force of the attack on the front battlefield.

After defeating 30,000 Xianbei cavalry in one fell swoop, the three generals Dian Wei, Zhang Liao and Xu Chu were the arrows, and Zhou Yu was the chief general of the central army. He led 40,000 troops to pursue and attack the central army camp of Fuluo. On the rear wings of more than 100,000 barbarians, Hu Cheer led 10,000 Jinqiu Guards to fiercely storm more than 30,000 infantry soldiers on the left wing of the barbarian army. Cao Xing, Liang Xing and other generals led more than 30,000 county government soldiers to attack the right-wing Qiang cavalry enemy formation, and then 5,000 bow and crossbow camp soldiers seized the commanding heights and shot them accurately. Among the 100,000 Xiliang army in the Beidi County, a total of 90,000 soldiers were put into the battlefield to fight, attacking front and back, which caught the barbarian army off guard, rushed in a hurry, and collapsed.

If the 90,000 Xiliang army and more than 100,000 barbarians face each other and charge head-on, who will win or lose? After all, the barbarian army has more than 80,000 combat cavalry, especially in field battles. In front-only battles, the barbarian cavalry alone is enough for the Western Liang army to drink a pot; and with the 40,000 white wave thieves under Yu Fuluo's command, they will help. Even if the individual combat power is not as good as the Xiliang army, they will win because there are many people and the power. It is still unknown who will win or lose in the front-only rushing forward.

However, Yu Fuluo, as the commander of the army, was afraid of the tragic death of the Huns in person. Dian Wei came to his front and immediately drove away and fled one after another. It was not important for him to escape, but the important thing was that the central commander of the army retreated with him; the flag bearer was his trusted general, so he naturally followed his horse's head everywhere. Seeing him turning around and running for his life, the central commander of the army quickly retreated.

On the battlefield where more than 100,000 troops were gathered together, the Central Army Yufuluo's flag was a flag of the coalition forces, which led the soldiers of the entire army to advance and retreat. Seeing that the Southern Xiongnu war cavalry in chaos, the commander retreated. When the soldiers and horses on both wings were facing strong soldiers in front and pursuit, they immediately collapsed and scattered, and each fled and ran for life.

As a result, the two wings of the barbarian army collapsed and the central army was in chaos. The Western Liang army took advantage of the situation to attack fiercely and attacked forward and backward, with unstoppable force, and defeated more than 100,000 barbarians to pieces. Then, with Dian Wei, Zhang Liao and Xu Chu, the three generals, followed Yu Fuluo and chased him relentlessly, as if they were tore open the battle formation of the barbarian army.

When Yu Fuluo rushed out of the central army and fled straight to the rear camp, the Western Liang army officially penetrated the barbarian camp, and the Huben camp attacking head-on and met with the Jinqiuwei Zhanqi, who was sneaking out from the central army to kill the barbarian army that fled in panic. It was really enjoyable, and this frontal battle was sure to win.
