Da Wei Chun

Chapter 665
"Now that Cui Yanbo has been defeated, the remnants have retreated to Hedong, and several counties in the west of Hexi have been conquered by Master Li, so how can you ask where General Huangfu has gone?"

Zhang Jingzhi's tone was very polite, and he was very puzzled: If Huangfu is still west of Dahe, he should be in Wuwei, Jincheng, or the area around Shanshan and Yanhan.But no matter where he is, the envoy will not be unable to find him, and it will not even be known that Li Chengzhi has sent a new army to help him.

The same is true for Li Liang.Moreover, it has been half a month since he and Daxi sent troops, if the two of them received Li Chengzhi's military order, they should have sent Qitang to respond.

The reason why there was no news, and even the deputy commander of the South Road didn't know that Li Chengzhi sent troops to help, there is only one possibility: Huangfurang is not near Wuwei and Jincheng.

Where else can it go?

Meeting Zhang Jingzhi's and Daxi's suspicious gazes, Li Liang sighed secretly, and said helplessly: "To tell you the truth, General Huangfu has already gone north. If there is no accident, he is now very weak, and in all likelihood, he is separated from Xingluan by the city." Confrontation..."

Huangfu let the army go to Bogulu?

Hearing this sentence, Daxi felt his hair stand on end, and his hair almost stood on end.

Do you only have Xingluan's tens of thousands of troops when you are Bugulu, or do you know that the hinterland of Hequsi, five or six hundred miles to the northwest, is the garrison of Yuanyao, the general who conquered the North?

No matter how small, there are nearly 20 troops in these two places.

Having won once by luck, Huangfu Rang really regarded himself as the god of war, thinking that wherever he went, he could really be invincible and invincible?
Daxi was like this, Zhang Jingzhi was also shocked.

Knowing that the first battle in Shanshan was due to luck, how dare Huangfu Rang enter the tiger's den again?

Seeing the two of them like this, Li Liang explained again: "General Huangfu didn't act arbitrarily, but agreed with me to take the risk... Well, it's not really a risk..."

Li Liang paused for a while, then looked at Zhang Jingzhi and Daxi with deep meaning, "I think you two still don't know, Rouran has already retreated, right?"

Daxi exclaimed: "How is it possible?"

"How is it impossible?"

Li Liang suddenly laughed, "I can defeat Cui Yanbo in the south, and naturally I can defeat Rouran in the north..."

Where is the North Road, how do I not know?
Well, it seems that there are...

At the beginning of February, when the weather was slightly warmer, Li Song led his army to the west and took the former Dunhuang town general to recover Dunhuang.Hearing that Yuan Zhi was yelling so loudly, he dared to call Li Chengzhi a traitor when he saw Li Chengzhi.But in Li Song's hands, he behaved like a sheep.Not only did he obey Li Song's words, but he also made suggestions in every possible way, so Li Song put down Dunhuang in less than [-] days since he sent troops from Zhenyi without bloodshed.

After hearing no more news, Daxi only thought that Li Chengzhi had asked Li Song to guard Dunhuang and organize the townspeople to garrison the fields.Thinking about it now, it must have been Li Song who sent troops from Dunhuang, protruding from Zhuoxie Mountain, and attacking Roujun...

Suspicious in his heart, he blurted out: "But Li Song won?"

"Not only the fourth uncle, but also Li Yongshou who ambushed on the west bank of Juyan Lake, Li Feng on the east bank, and a total of ten guards from the three sides joined forces to make Rouran difficult to care about. In the end, he was defeated at Junji Mountain and fled into the depths of Mobei ..."

The more surprised Daxi was, the happier Li Liang was, and he replied in a loud voice, "I don't know how many people were killed or injured, but the number of cattle and sheep seized by Fourth Uncle and Li Yongshou is as many as one million, and the grain, grass, and hemp transported from Guanzhong are worth thousands of carts." ..."

Millions of cattle and sheep... According to this scale, Rouran's troops should be at least 20, even 30 is also possible.

And even if there are 30 troops on the North Road, it can only be worth [-].With [-] to win [-], who dares to say that this is not another great victory?

There were Huangfurang, Li Liang, and Huangfuzhong before, and Li Song, Li Feng, and Li Yongshou later.Even Li Shi, who is mediocre and illiterate, has made a lot of contributions, but he and Zhang Jingzhi are the same as going to the theater, a waste of time, a waste of time?
If he had known that Cui Yanbo had been defeated and Rouran had retreated, why would Huangfu have to let him go far away and attack Bugulu thousands of miles away from the east coast of Yudong?
Although most of Daxi's troops are new troops, they have fought a lot of battles, okay?Don't you even dare to fight a smooth battle?

What's more, there are more than [-] horses and [-] chariots.If you travel in a hurry, the distance from Zhangye to Bogulu is only [-] li. No matter how slow you go, it will take seven or eight days.

Maybe I sat on the top of the city and drank a few days ago...

The scene of Yuan Yao retreating to the Six Towns in a hurry when he heard that the Xihai army was going north along the west bank of the river suddenly appeared in Daxi's mind.

He could have expected that even if Xing Luan was given another hundred thousand troops, he would not stick to the town of Bogulu on the west bank, but retreated to the east bank overnight, burned all the ferries, and paid off all the ships.

This is not speculation, but inevitability.

Not to mention that Yuan Yao and Xing Luan gathered together all the famous generals under the sky, and heard that Tuyuhun's 20 fine cavalry, Cui Yanbo's 30 army, and Rouran's [-] fierce soldiers were successively defeated by the West Sea. When it is time, it will only avoid its edge, and retreat as fast as it can.

Sometimes, words such as unstoppable and invincible are not only used for praise, but also as evidence of God's help.

And the older the army and the people who have been fighting for a long time, the more they believe in this truth.Therefore, even if Huangfu only led one thousand soldiers, Xing Luan and Yuan Yao would only retreat three quarters.

Huangfurang could drive Yuanyao away and retreat Xingluan without even dying or wounding a single soldier.

This is a famous general in the world... A famous general, after this village, how can there be such a shop?
Grandpa's chance to become famous just flew away like this?
Daxi's envious eyes were red: "Since you have already received the news of Rouran's retreat, why don't Zhang Sima and I know about it?"

Hearing this, he knew that he was blaming Li Chengzhi, not to mention Li Liang, if Li Chengzhi was in person, Daxi also had the same attitude.So Li Liang didn't care, and replied with a smile:
"This news is not from Langjun, but from Yuan Yao, so Zhonglang and Sima didn't know about it. After doing the math, even Langjun just received the news... It was also a mistake: a few days ago, Huangfu and I The general was about to divide his troops. He planned to clear the routs along the east bank and recover the counties of Zicheng (now Gaolan County, Lanzhou City, Gansu Province) and Naowei (now Jingtai County, Baiyin City, Gansu Province). Another way was to cut wood and build bridges. Cross the river in shallow water.

After many investigations, the ancient crossing of the Dahe River in Xiqiang (now Yongjing County, Linxia Prefecture, Gansu Province) was finally selected... But Fang sent the former army across the river, and before they could set up piles, they happened to bump into Cui Yanbo, who was going to Yuzhong. Yuan Qin, who was ordered by Yuan Cheng.

After some questioning, I found out that Uncle Feng and Uncle Feng had defeated Rouran.I also know that Yuanyao had already pulled out his camp three days ago, and retreated to Woye overnight, just to prevent my army from the North Road from raiding the six towns.He also knew that Yuan Yao urgently ordered Xing Luan to retreat to the east bank, and divided his troops to patrol the river bank to prevent our army from crossing by force... so General Huangfu made a decisive decision and rushed to Bugulu in order to hold Xing Luan..."

Daxi was a little numb from shock: Is this Huangfu so daring?
It can hold Xing Luan back, and it can also defeat Yuan Yao's plan to order Xing Luan to patrol the east bank of the river.Li Liang only needs to capture the counties on the west bank and relieve his worries, and then he can build a bridge to cross the river.

But the rabbit bites people even in a hurry, Huangfu Rang is not afraid that Xing Luan will fight him to death?
As soon as such a thought came up, it was categorically rejected by Daxi: I am also a demon, knowing that the West Sea is unstoppable, how could Xing Luan, as a famous general, seek his own death?

Secretly annoyed, Zhang Jingzhi laughed loudly, and clapped his hands back: "It's better to make a decisive decision! I just don't know, what will Chief Li and General Huangfu want after crossing the river? Could it be that they want to attack Guanzhong?"

Li Liang smiled modestly: "Sima was joking! It's just a few small victories, so it won't make me and Huangfu obsessed with ghosts, so that I will be invincible?
The two of us agreed that when Naowei County is taken down, all of Hexi will be attached to it, so there is no need to worry about the future.Then I will lead the army across the river, release Yuanqin first, and order him to send a message to Cui Yanbo to let him know the news of Rouran's defeat and Yuanyao's withdrawal.Then, with great fanfare, they marched towards Yuzhong.Cui Yanbo, the general of the defeated army, no longer dares to speak bravely, he will definitely retreat back to Longguan in a hurry..."

Daxi asked in an almost arrogant way: "What if he wants to die with you, what should he do?"

"Absolutely not!"

Li Liang shook his head firmly, "Because Yuanyao's military order is like this: order Cui Yanbo to only leave the underdogs to the east bank to bluff, to echo Xing Luan from a distance, and to temporarily hold the river. Cui Yanbo will lead the remaining Chinese troops under his command to withdraw. Xiao Guan, when Yuan Yao returns to Fangliu Town, he will send Xi Shangshu northward to guard Longshan with him..."

Zhang Jingzhi was overjoyed immediately: "We guard Longshan together... Yuan Yao actually wants to abandon Dahe?"

"If you don't give up, you can't do it!" Li Liang replied, "According to Yuan Qin's words, the court has long since been unable to continue because he reprimanded his ministers for lending troops to Tuyuhun and Rouran. COFCO grass is only enough to eat and chew for one month.

Furthermore, it is a defeated army, the morale and morale of the army are low and low, but if there is a slight setback, I am afraid that Murong Xiao's defeat will repeat itself.If the few remaining Chinese troops were also sent to Yuzhong, it would be difficult for Longshan to defend.Therefore, Yuan Yao had no choice but to cut off his tail to survive..."

Daxi's heart was burning, and he shouted anxiously: "Then why don't you take advantage of the victory and pursue it, but bluff and let the tiger go back to the mountain?"

Li Liang smiled awkwardly, but said nothing, just looked at Zhang Jingzhi.

Daxi didn't know how many cannons and explosives Huangfu Rang and Li Liang had brought, but Zhang Jingzhi was in charge of all the ministries, so he knew it clearly.

Since Li Song went west, Li Chengzhi has tried every means to purchase, and has accumulated nearly five years.But in this battle, Huangfu and Li Liang took more than [-]%, could it be that they were all exhausted?
He suddenly understood, and his heart flinched: "But the firearms have been exhausted? Even so, how dare Huangfu go north alone?"

"Cui Yanbo is extremely courageous and full of wisdom. If he hadn't fired thousands of cannons regardless of the cost, how could he be the first to steal people and make them fall into chaos?"

Li Liang sighed sadly: "Although the gunpowder has not been exhausted, it is not much. Huangfu brought a hundred stones when he went north, and left a dozen stones for me. Now they are left in Zicheng County, waiting to build a bridge to cross the river." used when..."

Only a hundred stones left?

Zhang Jingzhi remembered very clearly that when the two of them sent troops from Zhenyi, they loaded hundreds of carts with only gunpowder, a total of two thousand shi.Now the remaining is less than [-]%?
No wonder the two of them are so powerful?

It turned out that these two big victories were all made of gunpowder.

But no matter how you calculate it, it's worth thousands of dollars...

No wonder Cui Yanbo was already a defeated general, and Li Liang was even more likely to win, but he only dared to bluff and force him away?

Without gunpowder, you can only fight swords against swords, guns against guns, and take human lives.

Regardless of whether Li Liang dared or not, Li Chengzhi would never agree.

By analogy, Li Song and others were able to win more with less, and defeated Rouran so badly that they had to retreat to Mobei.

And he remembered that Li Song, Li Feng and others brought twice as much gunpowder and artillery as Huangfu and Li Liang.After such a calculation, I am afraid that there is not much left...

Zhang Jingzhi let out a sharp breath: "When Zhonglang and I sent troops, the Duke of the State had a strict order: After reaching Wuwei, he was only a partial division, and he had to follow General Huangfu's order. General Huangfu has already gone north, and Mr. The head of the military department is now the deputy commander of the South Road, and Zhonglang and I should obey Li's orders..."

Li Liang hastily declined: "Liang has little talent and little knowledge, and is even more unknown, how can this be good?"

"A soldier can't stay still without a general, and a snake can't do without a head...Although I am old, I am only good at military orders, laws, food and grass. When it comes to battles, even Zhonglang can't compare. All day long, my eyes and ears are noisy, and I am no longer comparable to others, so I hope there is no reason to refuse..."

It means that I am not even as good as Li Liang?
Da Xi wanted to snort coldly, but after thinking about it, he closed his mouth wisely.

In the past, if someone said that he was inferior to Li Liang, he would definitely not accept it.

Not even Li Chengzhi.

But now that even Cui Yanbo has been defeated by Huangfu and Li Liang, if he is still stubborn and dares to say that he is stronger than Cui Yanbo, maybe he will bump into Xi Kangsheng one day and his shit will be kicked out.

That's why even if you don't want to, you can only grit your teeth and admit it...

This is not the time to be polite, Li Liang pondered for a moment, then made a bow without hesitation: "So, Liang can only reluctantly do what he wants..."

Zhang Jingzhi hurriedly supported him: "It's a great kindness..."

He hadn't finished speaking, and Li Liang's waist hadn't straightened yet, when he heard a whistle outside the city.The three pricked up their ears in unison.

The urgent order, or was it given to Huangfu Rang?

Li Chengzhi is the only one who can pass orders to Huangfu.

The three looked solemn, and hurriedly greeted them out of the city.

When someone ran to him, he saw by the light of the fire that it was Li Cong!

Seeing that his body was covered in dirt and his hair was dyed white, he knew that he must be walking day and night without stopping.

Li Liang walked a few steps quickly, and shouted loudly: "Monkey, is your order urgent?"

"Exactly!"

The horse barely stopped, Li Cong jumped off the horse: "Brother, where is General Huangfu?"

Li Liang paused, then replied in a low voice: "Huangfu has already gone north, if the military order is urgent, I will immediately send a horse to protect you and go again..."

"As you expected?"

Li Cong muttered, then shook his head again: "No need, Mr. Lang said, it's the same for elder brother..."

After finishing speaking, he took out Lingxin from his arms.

After a short inspection, Li Liang tore off the seal.

It was written by Li Chengzhi himself?
After a hasty scan, the first thing I saw was the eight large characters written in Zhu Zhu: Don't be greedy, just take it when you see it!
