Liu Song Hanque

Chapter 418 Operation Gyeongju
Seeing this, Helian wanted to charge towards the third wall.

It's just that there are bed crossbows of considerable size on the wall of the pass. Hu Xia's soldiers were all driven down by the Song army after several charges. He Lianbo knew that he had reached the limit, and he also knew how to accept it when he saw it, so he ordered the withdrawal of the troops. .

After withdrawing the soldiers, Helian Bobo did not return to the original barracks, but stationed troops on the spot between the first and second walls, making it clear that he wanted to confront the Song army in the narrow area in between.

Liu Yizhen and Xie Hui who got the news were naturally secretly excited.

The greater Helianbo's determination, the more in line with Liu Song's strategic intentions.

"In this way, the task in Hanzhong is completed. It depends on Qingzhou and Longyou."

Gyeongju.

Here is stationed Liu Song's most elite cavalry unit, Changning Cavalry.

Fu Hongzhi and the newly dispatched lieutenant general Mao Xiuzhi are now routinely bringing soldiers to inspect the Gyeongju border, and they can see faint figures flickering in an oasis in the distance.

"That's Helian Lun's barracks."

Fu Hongzhi and Mao Xiuzhi were old acquaintances of Liu Yu's subordinates before, so they were not unfamiliar, so they got along well.

"Helian Lun's men are all cavalry, and some of them have strange equipment."

Fu Hongzhi frowned, and slowly expressed his guess: "It's probably Hu Xia's armored cavalry!"

Liu Yi could really not care about cavalry, but Fu Hongzhi couldn't.

In his concept, the armored cavalry is the only god on the battlefield in this era!

If you underestimate the armored cavalry, you will definitely pay a heavy price!
Mao Xiuzhi, like Mao Dezu, came from the Mao family in Xingyang. He had a lot of experience and was responsible for commanding the cavalry before. He agreed with Fu Hongzhi's views.

"Indeed, it is very likely that they are cavalry in armor."

"but……"

Mao Xiuzhi looked at Fu Hongzhi: "Isn't General Fu also secretly training the mounted cavalry? Is it possible that you are still afraid that the mounted cavalry on the opposite side will fail?"

Fu Hongzhi smiled wryly: "It's not a matter of being afraid or not."

"The Son of Heaven doesn't pay much attention to cavalry. So this battle may be an opportunity!"

"As long as we can prove the power and value of armored cavalry on the battlefield. Even the emperor will reconsider."

Thinking of this, Fu Hongzhi became a little excited.

"If the Son of Heaven agrees to form more armored cavalry... not many! Just five thousand cavalry! Just think about the momentum of thousands of horses galloping! How exciting it would be!"

Equipped with cavalry, no general can say no to it!

That's why Fu Hongzhi has been obsessed with this matter, hoping to make the emperor change his mind and form a division of tiger and wolf.

After hearing this, Mao Xiuzhi smiled lightly and stopped talking.

Fu Hongzhi and today's emperor had a fateful friendship in Guanzhong. He could complain about the emperor, but he couldn't.

The conversation changed, and the two chatted about Guanzhong's actions.

"General Wang Zhen'e has been stationed in Chencang for more than a month, and it's really strange that there has been no movement yet."

"In addition, not long ago, I heard that General Zhu Lingshi also departed from Guanzhong and is about to arrive in Gyeongju..."

The second general who didn't know Liu Song's high-level plan was a little confused: "Which side is the main force in this battle? Which side is the bait? How should Qingzhou fight..."

When the two were thinking about the overall strategy, they found that there seemed to be a commotion in Helian Lun's barracks.

After a while, cooking smoke actually rose above the barracks. This phenomenon made both Fu Hongzhi and Mao Xiuzhi's hearts sink.

"Now is not the time to eat normally."

"Suddenly ordered to cook, there must be some military action!"

Where can the enemy stationed next to Gyeongju carry out military operations?

Fu Hongzhi and Mao Xiuzhi glanced at each other, then decisively turned their horses and ran towards their own camp: "Prepare to defend against the enemy!"

Just as the two judged, Helian Lun had indeed begun to seek military operations against Gyeongju.

It wasn't that there was any major strategic appeal, the main reason was that Helian Gui changed his name to Liu Gui, and the news that he was canonized as Shan Yu by the Emperor of Song reached Helian Lun's ears.

After hearing the news, Helian Lun was not angry at Helian Gui's betrayal, but covered his mouth and laughed happily.

Undoubtedly, as the prince, Helian Gui is a huge threat to Helian Bobo's other children. Now Helian Gui is not able to become the prince of Hu Xia no matter what. It's coming, isn't it?

It also reminds me of Helian Bobo's promise to himself - "As long as Qingzhou is captured, I will make myself the prince."

Now the Wangzhen Evil Department in Guanzhong is held back by Longyou's army, and he has obtained the "insider information" through secret lines, knowing that Guanzhong will probably not support Gyeongju, these have created excellent conditions for attacking Gyeongju.

"Taking Gyeongju, the crown prince is mine!"

As Helian Bobo's most valued son, Helian Lun's personality is not as tyrannical as Helian Ding's, but quite intelligent.

Attacking the territory of the Han people, you must not go to the checkpoints and cities!

Those yellow wheat fields and green vegetable fields are the hearts and minds of the Han people.

"Qingqi broke into pieces and rushed directly to burn the fields!"

"If you encounter Song Army cavalry, don't get entangled with them, run elsewhere immediately!"

"Our cavalry have one man and two horses, and their horsepower is far superior to that of the Han Chinese. As long as they run, they will not be able to catch up with us."

Helian Lun learned a lot from Helian Bobo.

"In short, it's just one sentence - run away if you can't fight! Our goal is only the crops of the Han people! Do you understand clearly?"

"Ow!"

The Xiongnu soldiers under Helian Lun let out howls of excitement like wolves, and rushed towards Qingzhou one after another.

They all executed Helian Lun's tactics accurately. When they saw the wheat fields, they threw lighted torches over them, and when they saw the water tanks, they deliberately destroyed them, allowing the water to irrigate the fields to flow elsewhere.

During the period, some villagers wanted to come up to stop them, but in the face of Hu Xia's cavalry, even the elite soldiers of the Song army who were heavily armed had to be careful, let alone them?

After a few charges, a large number of civilians died.

The violent Hu Xia cavalry was not ashamed but proud, and picked up the severed limbs to the tip of the spear, laughing and playing for fun.

A Huxia cavalryman triumphantly played with a gun, threw the flesh and blood from the tip of the gun, and landed on the houses built by these people with hard work.

The surrounding people dare not speak out.

The deterrent power of the Huns cavalry was too great for them. If they rushed up, they would die. No one wanted to be the next dead soul in the hands of the enemy.

Several Hu Xia soldiers saw so many Han people together but did not dare to resist themselves, and they also spoke noisy birdsong.

"A bunch of bastards, this Han people were born to be slaves of our Huns."

"Who said no?"

"Leave when you've had enough fun, or the Song Army cavalry will come over in a while."

"..."

One of them lit a dead branch in his hand and threw it directly on the roof, trying to turn these villagers into refugees without land and land.

"court death!"

An extremely accurate arrow was shot from not far away, directly hitting the palm of the Hu Xia cavalryman holding a dead branch, splashing blood.

"The Qingzhou government army is here! Wait for the Xiongnu to stop being presumptuous!"
