The heavens start from saving Daming

Chapter 584

Before the evening of the second day, the Han army, who had marched more than sixty miles in a hurry, finally arrived outside Chengle City.

Outside the city, the original Nuoda Baiyang Tribe camp was in chaos.

Suburu, who had rushed back yesterday, immediately gave the order to retreat.

But the characteristic of nomadic tribes is that they take everyone and all their belongings wherever they go.

In the old camp of the Baiyang tribe, there are not only tens of thousands of old and weak women and children, but also hundreds of thousands of cattle, sheep and horses, and various supplies.

They don't have cars or trains, and the degree of organization is so low, where can they go in a hurry.

There are still some strong people in the Aries Tribe, but not to mention the low morale caused by the disastrous defeat before, there are still a large number of people scattered outside, and they have not been able to gather in time.

Xu Bulu, who was beaten so frightened, didn't believe that he could still carry the Han army, let alone that there was still Cheng Buzhi in Chengle City.

So he didn't hesitate at all. As soon as he came back, he took his own palace tent first, and brought the core directly under the tribe's manpower, loaded ironware, fine wine, money, silk, medicinal materials and other expensive things into the cart, and drove a large number of cattle and sheep straight to the cart. Go to Yunzhong County.

Before leaving, Xu Bulu arranged for the four vassal tribes, Jinggu, Wulun, Micilu, and Fu, to stay behind.

These four tribes were responsible for the siege of Chengle before, so they suffered little loss.

But the problem is that the main force of the Baiyang tribe has all returned in a disastrous defeat. How can these four vassal tribes, which are estimated to be only seven or eight thousand strong in total, be able to stop the advance of the Han army?

Everyone knows that these four tribes were abandoned, and the only purpose they were left behind was to delay the pursuit of the Han army as much as possible. To put it simply, they used their own lives to fight for the escape time of the Aries tribe. .

Under such circumstances, the vassal tribes, which already have low organization and low morale, have no intention of fighting.

When Li Yunze rushed out of the city with his reinforcements, the leaders of these four vassal tribes almost unanimously led their respective tribesmen to chase the old and weak who had run away on horseback. The big camp was left to the Han army.

"Your Majesty!"

The excited Hanbok and others rode their horses over and urged, "Hurry up."

"I can't catch up."

Li Yunze simply shook his head, and looked at Chengle City, which was slowly opening the city gate. "The soldiers marched for nearly seventy miles, and there were still many soldiers who fell behind and failed to keep up. If you return your carbine, it will not pay off
lose. "

He stretched out his finger to Cheng Bushi's department that drove out from the city in the distance, "They can try."

Cheng Bushi, who had already noticed the changes outside the city, finally chose to leave the city after seeing the banner of the reinforcements.

Such actions made Li Yunze shake his head greatly.

If it was said that Xuburu did not leave the city when he went eastward in a big way yesterday, Li Yunze said that it is understandable, because it may be a tactic to lure the enemy.

But last night when Xuburu fled back, it is impossible for the city to not notice it at all, right?
Even if not, what about this morning, with so many old and weak people driving cattle, sheep and horses in carts, it is impossible that all the defenders in the city are blind, right?

But there has been no movement in the city, and they waited until the sunset covered the ground at this time, seeing that it was going to be dark before coming out.

Seeing that it was going to be dark, what was the use of coming out now.

Li Yunze originally thought that since Cheng Bushi was a famous general, he must be able to judge the situation on the battlefield and seize the opportunity to take the initiative to attack.

Even if the Aries Tribe cannot be defeated, it should be possible to entangle its main force or cut off its tail.

He carried out a forced march without hesitating a lot of wear and tear, causing many soldiers to fall behind or even fall to their deaths, in order to be able to rush over in time to cooperate with Cheng Bushi in the pincer attack.

It's a pity that Cheng Bushi's performance really disappointed him. What's the difference between this Nima and Yuan Chonghuan?
"I don't know if you don't move like a mountain, you really don't move."

Sima Qian said that Cheng Bushi had never lost a battle. If he defended the city like this every time, he would not be defeated unless the city was breached.

Cheng Bushi finally left the city, but instead of chasing the fleeing Huns, he went straight to find the reinforcements that had already entered the old camp of the Baiyang Tribe.

The Aries Tribe is very large, with tens of thousands of people.

Moreover, there are more than ten vassal tribes under his command. This time he came to Dingxiang County, and the total population should be more than [-].

Not to mention the scattered losses before, the core of its headquarters ran away this morning, and the four vassal tribes that had been cut off before, and could still be organized and strong, also ran away with the members of the tribe.

However, there are still many old and weak members of the vassal tribes, and even those who were abandoned by the Baiyang tribe stayed in the old camp.

There are more than ten thousand of these people.

There are also various tents and other materials in the old camp, as well as countless cattle, sheep and horses scattered outside.

"Heh~~~"

Looking at the messy scene in front of him, Li Yunze was actually amused, "Isn't this the trick used by the bandits in the late Ming Dynasty when they escaped?"

At the end of the Ming Dynasty, when the rogue bandits were hunted down by the officers and soldiers and could not escape, they would leave their gold and silver treasures on the side of the road, and then leave the coerced Dingkou for the officers and soldiers to kill and pretend to be meritorious.

These abandoned old and weak were used to slow down the Han army, and those cattle, sheep and horses, as well as the remnants of the old camp, were the gold and silver treasures left by the Baiyang tribe.

I have to say that although they are nomadic tribes, they are very sophisticated in terms of scheming.

Amidst the clanging of the armor, Cheng Bushi led the team over.

Everyone around Li Yunze, except his own soldiers, all saluted Cheng Bushi.

Cheng Bushi is the governor of Dingxiang County, and Hanfu, Chen Xin and others are all lieutenants under his command, the most intuitive relationship between superiors and subordinates.

Seeing Li Yunze, Cheng Bushi showed surprise on his face.

Stepping forward, Cheng Bushi finally confirmed his identity when he was seven or eight steps away, and immediately saluted, "Minister, Cheng Buzhi. Greetings to the king~~~"

Li Yunze's heart moved slightly, and he stepped forward with a smile, "General, you don't need to be polite, but have you seen this king in Chang'an City?"

"Yes."

Cheng Bushi stood up straight, his brows slightly frowned, "Why is Your Majesty here?"

He knew that the prince Sheng Beifeng was in Zhongshan Country, but this is Dingxiang County, why did the King of Zhongshan Country come to Dingxiang County?
Slightly raising his chin, Li Yunze responded loudly, "The Huns invaded, as a man of the Han family, he should be at the place where he is defending against foreign invaders!"

What he said was so upright, all the soldiers around him showed admiration on their faces.

Only Cheng Bushi's face remained unchanged, "Dare to ask your majesty, is there an edict from the emperor?"

It is a serious crime to leave the fief without the emperor's edict.

"There is no edict."

Li Yunze admitted very straightforwardly, "The most important thing now is that the general must immediately gather the elite to pursue the Huns. They haven't gone far. As long as they pursue resolutely, they will surely gain something."

Cheng Bushi shook his head even more bluntly, "It's getting late. There is an old saying that clouds and snow can't pass the bridge, and night can't pass the forest. If you rush forward greedily, it will give the enemy an opportunity."

"Ha~~~"

Li Yunze sneered, "My lord understands why you have never been defeated. The enemy can't attack you like a mountain, the enemy can't loot like a mountain, and the enemy can't move you like a mountain. It's really easy to be undefeated, just don't fight." If this is the case, then the king's tethered dog is in

Here, you can also be undefeated! "

That's a lot to say.

Cheng Bushi's soldiers drew their swords and stared angrily, Li Yunze's soldiers naturally did not show any weakness, and also drew their swords to confront each other.

The atmosphere is extremely tense, and a fire may break out at any time.

Li Yunze understood why Cheng Bushi had no news or activities after Liu Che came to power in history.

As for his fighting style, which is almost the same as Yuan Chonghuan's, it is of course impossible to reuse it in the Emperor Wu Dynasty who advocated offense.

With a calm face, Cheng Bushi signaled the soldiers to withdraw their knives.

He cupped his hands towards Li Yunze, "Your Majesty left the feudal kingdom privately without an edict, and invited him to rest in Chengle. At the end of the day, he will report to the Son of Heaven, and the Son of Heaven will decide."

"Just because you want to lock me up?"

Li Yunze sneered, "I want to see it today, who dares to touch me?"

Cheng Buzhi sighed and shook his head, "Your Majesty misunderstood, I am just worried about Your Majesty, I will write a letter to the Son of Heaven, expressly stating that everything will be decided by the Son of Heaven."

After finishing speaking, Cheng Bushi bowed to Li Yunze, and then called Han Fu and others to return to Chengle.

As for chasing the fleeing Aries Tribe or something, don't even think about it.

"and many more."

Li Yunze called Cheng Bushi who was about to leave, and said amidst his doubts, "The soldiers of the Three Martial Arts fought desperately to defeat the Huns' invasion of Dingxiang County, and gained countless gains. Their military exploits should not be lost."

"It's natural."

Cheng Bushi nodded in response, "The Sima in the Free Army is in charge of counting the military exploits, so don't worry about it, Your Majesty."

In other words, you don't need to meddle in the affairs of the Great Wall Legion.

Things like losing military merits were the norm in the late Ming Dynasty.

Civil servants did not lose military merits and military rewards, but were heretics.

But in the early Han Dynasty, whoever dared to lose military merits had to light lanterns in the toilet.

Li Yunze didn't say anything more, he calmly looked at Cheng Buzhi and returned to Chengle City.

As Cheng Bushi's banner disappeared into the city gate, Li Yunze turned his head to look at the golden-red sunset in the distance, "Even if I use Feng Tang and Li Guang, I don't need you!"

What an undefeated famous general is really a ghost made by Sima Qian!

Li Yunze originally planned to persuade Cheng Bushi to give all the soldiers and horses of Dingxiang County to him to command.

In that case, he could gather tens of thousands of frontier troops, send troops to the nearby Yunzhong County to rescue, and even have a decisive battle with Da Shanyu.

Can.
Forget it, do whatever you want wherever you go.

Li Yunze began to gather people and horses, take care of the captured Huns, count the captured cattle, sheep and horses, sort out supplies, and so on.

A few days later, Chang'an City.

The two memorials from Zhongshan Kingdom and Dingxiang County were sent to Weiyang Palace at the same time through four hundred li urgently.

These two memorials were sent by military newspapers, and the post stations along the way were of the highest rank, so that they could be delivered to the emperor in the shortest possible time.

Liu Qi, who was angry because of the invasion of the Huns, saw Zhang Ou's memorabilia saying that the king of Zhongshan defeated the Baiyang tribe of the Huns in Dingxiang County and captured more than [-] people. He suddenly had a severe headache and screamed.

'Ah~~~'

The ministers and servants around him were shocked and rushed forward to help, but they were pushed away by Liu Qi.

"Hate it, I hate it!!"

Liu Qi gritted his teeth with a sad expression, and beat his feet and chest, "If I knew that I broke the Aries Department, why bother to make love!"
