Memoirs of the Heavenly Khan

Chapter 57 General Pingbei, lead us to charge again
The two armies met on the banks of the Yellow River.

On one side was the leader of the Six Garrisons rebels, King Zhen Po Liu Han Baling, who served as the Grand Commander, Prime Minister, and King Pingnan Po Liu Han Kongque, who had rarely been defeated in his life.

On the other side was the son of the famous general Crouching Tiger, General Pingbei Li Shengui. Since he came to Yunzhong, he has been defeated in many battles, but he keeps fighting.

The two armies had clear formations.

Po Liu Han Kongque climbed onto the high platform and looked at the big banner with the word "Li" in the formation in the distance, his emotions fluctuating.

As long as Li Shengui is captured, all this will be over.

Po Liu Han Kongque gave the order to attack from the high platform, and then beat the drum himself.

All in one go!
The army that Po Liuhan Kongque could command included the Po Liuhan tribe, Huaishuo garrison troops and the western Chile tribes, and its members were complex.

This time, he only led the Po Liu Han army and a small number of Huaishuo garrison troops into battle, aiming for a quick victory and to overthrow the enemy's formation. Furthermore, a cavalry unit was ambushed nearby, waiting to capture Li Shengui after his army was defeated!
This army is the elite among the elite, and is the first-tier combat force among the entire Six Garrisons rebels.

The result of the battle was just as Po Liu Han Kongque had expected. The charge of his elite troops was very effective. Although the enemy's temporarily recruited soldiers were numerous, their combat effectiveness was not strong and they were quickly dispersed.

The dark front was forcibly cut into until it finally encountered resistance in front of Li Shengui's banner.

The eight hundred Li's men, all wearing iron armor, wearing bronze masks and holding long swords, were like a huge wall, blocking the elite troops of Po Liu Han Kongque.

After unifying the north, the Northern Wei Dynasty established a powerful military force, which was supported by a large number of official weapons and armor manufacturing workshops.

The Six Garrisons defended against the Rouran all year round. In order to prevent them from rebelling, the Northern Wei court controlled the supply of food, but there were no restrictions on weapons and armor.

Although the number of rebels in the Six Garrisons is small, the rate of armor they wear is not low, but most of them are old.

The troops under Li Chong's command were wearing distinctive armor.

The two elite forces collided, and it was difficult to tell the winner for a while.

Li Shengui looked at the battle situation in front of him and felt very nervous.

He had never seen such an elite army before. Although he had been defeated several times before, the war had not been so intense at the beginning.

There is still a process!

But this time, the other party came with such force that it felt like it would be over as soon as he inserted it.

Fei Mu advised from the side.

"Qing Gun, let's retreat!"

"Isn't it already blocked?"

Fei Mu looked at Li Shengui, who looked innocent, and said:
"Qingchen, these troops are all yours. What's the point of wasting time here? Let those worldly soldiers hold them back. We will retreat first!"

This is not a good deal at all.

Our own troops have been trained for many years, spending a lot of money and food, and are very loyal.

If we fight against the rebels from the Six Garrisons here, we will not gain any benefits if we win, and it will be even more tragic if we lose.

"But……"

"Don't worry, the rebels have surrounded us. It will be too late for us to withdraw."

Fei Mu overstepped his authority and issued orders on behalf of Li Shengui.

But as soon as the order was issued, the Hu leaders who were supposed to carry out the order temporarily left the troops and gathered together.

"General Pingbei, are you going to run away again?"

Seeing the aggressive look of the crowd, Fei Mu quickly called over the armored soldiers nearby.

Only with the protection of a group of soldiers did Fei Mu feel a little safe.

"Are you going to rebel?"

Who would have thought that these Hu leaders would dismount from their horses and kneel down one after another.

"General Pingbei, we all understand your plan. You just want us to surrender and wear down the Six Garrisons Army, so you feign defeat every time, don't you?"

Li Shengui was stunned and murmured.

"Have I?"

"Don't pretend, otherwise who could lose so many times in a row?"

Fei Mu, standing by, couldn't help but roll his eyes. "Your plan is certainly brilliant, but we can't hide it. To be honest, we don't want to surrender there. Life here is hard, but we can still survive. If we go over there, I'm afraid we won't even have vegetables to eat!"

As they spoke, the Hu leaders took out their swords and placed them across their necks.

"If you still want to feign defeat, we would rather die here than be labeled as traitors."

"We would rather die on the way to the charge than die of starvation in a cowardly way."

"General Pingbei, lead us to charge again!"

"Yeah, take us for another charge!"

Li Shengui looked at the barbarian leaders with tears in his eyes. He immediately drew his sword and said loudly:

"You are all loyal ministers and capable generals. Since this is the case, I swear here that I will not betray you if you do not betray me! After this battle, regardless of life or death, we are brothers. As long as I have a bite to eat, I will never let you go hungry!"

When this voice fell, the blood of the Hu leaders present boiled. They seemed to have found the beast instinct engraved in their blood when their ancestors from the grassland moved south more than a hundred years ago.

They all roared.

The situation on the battlefield has changed at this moment.

"Follow General Pingbei and you'll have meat to eat. Brothers, follow me!"

Those Hu people soldiers, led by their respective leaders, became fearless and ruthless, and surrounded the Six Garrisons Army from the opposite direction.

Po Liu Han Kongque looked at the changes in the situation and suddenly felt panicked.

He wanted to change the situation again, but found that he could do nothing in the face of an absolute majority.
-
Shengle.

Li Chong received a military report from afar. He thought about it for three days and three nights, but still couldn't figure out how Li Shengui won.

Po Liu Han Kongque led his elite troops to fight against the secular soldiers temporarily summoned by Li Shengui. Logically speaking, there was no way they could lose!

And lost so badly!

If Li Chong didn't know that Fei Mu was reliable and that he would never falsely report his military achievements, he would almost suspect that Li Shengui was lying about military intelligence!

Li Shuang walked in. Compared to Li Chong's confusion, he seemed much more indifferent.

"Shuang'er, what did Fei Mu say?"

"Fei Mu said that victory in this battle is due to divine intervention, not human effort."

Li Chong frowned and asked.

"What do you mean?"

"What I mean is that he can't explain it clearly!"

"..."

"Maybe this is what it means to kill a master with random punches!"

Li Chong looked at Li Shuang suspiciously.

"Why are you so happy, kid? With him here, your three strategies for suppressing the bandits won't be implemented anymore, won't they be able to be carried out anymore?"

"What are you talking about, foster father? Do you think I am the kind of person who is greedy for money?"

Li Chong nodded.

Trust between people!
Li Shuang walked out of the tent helplessly, and Hou Jing came over.

"My lord, Yu Jin said that the Mieliehe tribe of the Chi-Le tribe has agreed to surrender. As long as you give the order, we can join forces to attack the territory under the jurisdiction of Po Liu Han Kongque and divide up the Po Liu Han tribe!"

In the defeat of Po Liu Han Kongque, most of the elite troops were lost, and many people felt relieved.

"Wait a little longer and see how the Six Towns will respond."

“What if they don’t respond?”

Li Shuang smiled.

"General Pingbei's achievements will reach new heights!"
