He Wuji nodded, turned to the Wang brothers and said in a deep voice: "Where did the Yan army go after defeating Ding Ling's army? Do you know who the coach is?"
Wang Yi rushed: "The troops were led by Murong Nong and Murong Lin. After they defeated Ding Ling, they did not take advantage of the victory to pursue them. They did not even seize Ding Ling's camp. They went directly to the southwest, which seemed to be Yecheng.
direction."
Liu Yu's expression changed drastically: "What, are you going to Yecheng?"
Even Teng Tianzhi stood up in shock: "Oh, it seems Liu Yingyang is in danger."
Without saying a word, Liu Yu turned around and walked out of the palace: "No, I can't just watch Liu Yingyang and the others fall into crisis. I have to save them!"
He Wuji stretched out his hand and stopped Liu Yu: "Ji Nu, don't be impulsive. You haven't received the order. If you leave now, you are leaving without permission. Besides, Liyang City currently has only a few thousand soldiers and horses. Even if you bring them all, I'm afraid it will be wrong."
It’s a drop in the bucket.”
Liu Yu gritted his teeth: "I'm not going to lead troops to rescue him, but I want to stop Liu Yingyang myself."
He Wuji shook his head: "No, Ji Nu, he is the commander-in-chief. If he just reports the enemy's situation, sending a flying eagle will be faster than you can. You can't command him."
Liu Yu said in a deep voice: "The army is in pursuit now. You know the marching speed of our Beifu Army. It is impossible for Feiying to catch up with the army. We can only go to the left-behind camp in Yecheng and wait for someone to chase him there.
, I’m afraid that after the battle is over, the day lilies will be cold. I can only set out in person and catch up with the army."
He Wuji said in a deep voice: "But so what if you catch up? I have been following Liu Yingyang, and now all he can think about is defeating Murong Chui in one fell swoop. You must not let him run away. There is no reward for you here, no.
How to convince him with strong evidence? If it were you in his place, and a man suddenly came over and told him to abandon the enemy troops within easy reach in front of him, would you listen?"
Liu Yu gritted his teeth, took out the gold medal given to him by Xie Xuan from his arms, and said sternly: "If you have time, even if you use this gold medal to represent Commander Xuan in ordering Liu Yingyang, you have to do it."
I have to be responsible for the lives of tens of thousands of brothers and the national destiny of our Jin Dynasty. How difficult and difficult it is to set up the Beifu Army. We all know that if it is broken here, how many years will it take for the strength to recover?
!”
He Wuji's eyes were bright and he looked directly at Liu Yu: "Ji Nu, if you use Xuan Shuai's gold medal to force Liu Yingyang, I'm afraid you will fall out with him and become enemies with him in the future. We soldiers all know that there are people we hate the most.
You use your power to force yourself to submit. Besides, if the general refuses to grant orders to the foreign king, the whole army will grab them all the way. If you force Liu Yingyang to withdraw his troops at this time, you will cut off the brothers' financial path. I'm afraid everyone will
I can’t get along with you.”
Liu Yu said loudly: "I am saving them. If my life is gone, what's the use of this property? The military situation is so fierce that I can't care about so much. One day, everyone will understand who is right and who is right."
He Wuji sighed: "Since you have made up your mind, go ahead and do it. Governor Teng, could you please gather your troops quickly and select elite soldiers to go north to meet Liu Yingyang and the others? He is not talented but is willing to lead them.
"
Teng Tianzhi nodded quickly and said: "Okay, I can rest assured that there will be no military commander in charge, but it's just the defense of Liyang City..."
Liu Yu turned around and said seriously: "If the army is defeated, Liyang will be difficult to defend no matter how many 20,000 troops there are. Grand Administrator Teng, please contact Xie Zhenjun as soon as possible and ask him to send troops to respond. If Fu Pi's army comes, lead them to the ferry."
If you want to eat, you must not let them into the city."
Teng Tianzhi was about to speak when he saw Liu Yu running out. In the blink of an eye, the burly figure disappeared outside the government office.
Northeast of Yecheng, two hundred miles away, is Wuqiao Ze.
This is a wasteland, and the Zhang River flows through it. On the river, which is about thirty steps wide, there are five bridges that have been in disrepair. A loess road runs through both sides of the bank, and on the roadside is an endless stretch of wasteland and swamps.
Abandoned baggage and ordnance were scattered all over the ground, while a large number of heavily armed Jin troops were crossing these bridges, running like flying
Liu Laozhi was riding a tall horse, standing on the roadside. In front of him, the soldiers of the Beifu Army, who were like tigers and wolves, wearing heavy armor and carrying long spears, ran forward, four standard marching columns, like running
Like horses, the soldiers' breath in this winter mixed with the mist evaporated from the hot sweat all over their bodies, making this early morning wilderness fall into a strange confusion.
Liu Yi and Meng Chang were also riding horses, beside Liu Laozhi, with smiles on their faces. Liu Yi pointed at the wasteland on the roadside, which was dotted with traces of earthen stoves: "Commander
Please see, these stoves were from the third to fourth update yesterday, and there are only more than 2,000 left. This means that most of the Yan thieves have fled, and now they are still with Murong Chui. There are only more than 20,000 people, and he is almost the only one from Murong Xianbei.
The tribe, those Wu Wan, Ding Ling, Xiongnu and Jie servants are probably all gone."
Liu Laozhi's purple face showed a smile: "It seems that the speed of our army still played a key role. Murong Chui never expected that we could go from formation to dispatch of troops so quickly, let alone from Guangling to
It only took us more than ten days to arrive in Hebei. Thanks to our preparations over the years, there were ready-made military rations along the way, eliminating the trouble of transshipment. The troops could leave their baggage behind and move forward."
Meng Chang said calmly: "Commander, having said that, after arriving in Hebei, these advantages will no longer exist. If our army attacks too far away, wouldn't it be a bit dangerous? And I always feel that Murong Chui will not refuse to fight like this.
And retreat."
Liu Yi smiled and said: "Yanda, you are just too cautious and haven't gotten rid of the bad habits of the literati. We have already analyzed that this time Murong Chui was forced to retreat in front of the enemy, mainly because the rear was captured.
Ding Ling and Zhang Yuan's troops went to attack his hometown. That was his fundamental reason. Whether it was the families of the soldiers or the food, grass and luggage in stock, he could not lose it, so he had to give up the siege of Yecheng and solve the urgent need.
If we stop at this time and give him a chance to defeat Ding Ling's army, that will be really troublesome."
Liu Laozhi nodded with satisfaction: "Xile is right. We have been following them these past few days, and now it seems that their infantry has almost all collapsed. This shows that Murong Chui left in such a hurry and almost abandoned the infantry.
, with only cavalry, if you want to outrun four legs with two legs, you have to speed up a little bit more. Order, all officers and men, take off their armor, throw away their baggage, go into battle lightly, and pursue me at full speed!"
