Trust between people is the most difficult to establish.
It's like people of later generations go to the pirated market to read novels while clamoring about where the most basic sense of trust lies.
That’s why there are records in history that record how much someone trusted someone, and how someone reciprocated this heavy trust.
Just imagine, it’s like the street is full of ugly people, and suddenly a person as beautiful as a fairy appears. Will everyone be stunned and sigh, it turns out that there are such beauties in the world!
Most of history is written on thin paper, with a few words, filled with pus, blood and ugliness that is about to overflow. Therefore, those historians will paint the few shining points in a colorful way. , touching the heart.
At most, there is still mutual suspicion and calculation between people...
"Zidu, you said that the Xiongnu Chan Yu Fuluo did not pursue him?"
When Fei Qian just saw Ma Yue coming from Pingyang with less than a hundred cavalry, his heart almost stopped for a moment, but after hearing some details told by Ma Yue, his whole heart felt a little better again. temperature.
The Southern Xiongnu Yu Fuluo directly led his soldiers and horses to capture the Baibo Valley in Ma Yue, while the Baibo Army was attacking the old city of Pingyang!
In this extremely bad news, the only thing that Fei Qian can't figure out now is that Yu Fuluo seems to have let some water go...
First, Yu Fuluo did not participate in the attack on Pingyang County. Of course, the Hu people were not good at attacking cities after all. With infantry-based soldiers like the Baibo Army, Yu Fuluo had no need to fight directly in hand-to-hand combat, so this It makes more or less sense;
Second, although Yu Fuluo defeated the cavalry led by Ma Yue, he did not intercept and kill him. This is a bit interesting. After all, the Hu people are quite good at riding on horseback, and from Pingyang to Yong'an, although there was a long journey, It is indeed possible to bypass the Baibo Army, but it is not that easy to bypass the Hu people with one person and many horses...
Ma Yue's face was full of shame and he knelt down in the hall.
He had just led the army independently for less than ten days, and was coaxed back like a sheep. Although he understood that it was the most correct thing to come back with effective force, report to Fei Qian, and accept Fei Qian's punishment, but in It is indeed very painful emotionally.
"...Yes, my lord, the Huns only pursued them for about ten miles and then they all withdrew. Please punish me, my lord!"
In the Han Dynasty, losing an army meant losing most of the troops. It was also a very serious crime for a general and commander. However, this crime of losing an army must be judged based on the actual situation, otherwise no general would be willing to lead the army. .
However, Ma Yue's current situation must still be punished, but after all, we are outnumbered and the enemy is outnumbered. If there are no problems in major decisions, it will probably not be a capital crime.
Fei Qian asked: "Of course we must punish the crime, but this is not the point now. If we punish you now, will the real situation be improved? Zidu, let me ask you, you have to think about it in detail, Pass the entire future without missing any details..."
Ma Yue kowtowed, and then slowly recounted the story while thinking about it.
After Fei Qian left Pingyang, it turned out that the Baibo Army did not launch any attack on Pingyang from the beginning, but camped on the edge of the Fen River. It seemed that they wanted to ignore Pingyang and go south directly.
But two days ago, Bai Bo's army suddenly turned around and pushed directly to Pingyang City, and began to attack Pingyang County without hesitation.
Ma Yue had originally received instructions from Jia Qu, saying that if Bai Bo's army attacked Pingyang City, then Ma Yue should seek opportunities as much as possible to raid the place where Bai Bo stored grain and grass. He did not need to kill many Bai Bo, but only burned them.
Food and grass are equivalent to destroying Bai Bo's energy and spirit in one fell swoop.
On the first and second day, the Baibo Army drove the people to attack the city, but its own soldiers did not move. Therefore, the momentum was huge, but it had no effect. Then on the third day, that is, this morning, the Baibo Army used
The soldiers...
Ma Yue and his cavalry waited until noon, when the fighting was in full swing, and then suddenly rushed out of the valley and went straight to the Baibo Army's rear camp.
At first, the battle went smoothly, but Baibo's army was suddenly attacked, and the siege momentum suddenly became chaotic. Ma Yue led the cavalry into Baibo's rear camp and began to set fire to the food and destroy it...
Just when everything was going according to the original plan, unexpectedly, the Huns' cavalry suddenly joined the battlefield and charged directly at Ma Yue!
There were originally many Hu Qi under Ma Yue. Under the circumstances at that time, many Hu Qi even panicked on the spot and fled first without waiting for Ma Yue to give any orders. Although there were still old soldiers from Bingzhou to support them.
, but morale has been greatly lost...
There were indeed too many Hun cavalry, almost ten times as many as Ma Yue and others, so they had no choice but to retreat. There were not only Hun cavalry but also Baibo thieves between Ma Yue and Pingyang County. There was no way to enter Pingyang City.
So they had no choice but to retreat to Yong'an, but what was strange was that when the entire Huns were chasing Ma Yue, they seemed to have no intention of killing them all. They only drove them ten miles away and then took the initiative to withdraw their troops.
After the whole battle, Ma Yue's loss was not caused by any moment of contact. Instead, it was because the recruited Hu Qi saw that the momentum was not retreating and quietly slipped away during the evacuation process, which was about ten miles away.
…
In other words, for every number of people who died in battle, a large group fled. By the time Ma Yue reorganized his team, only more than a hundred Bingzhou veterans and more than a hundred Hu cavalry were left, that is,
It is said that about two hundred Hu Qi escaped during this process.
Mercenaries have this kind of virtue, so there won't be many surprises when Fei infiltrates.
It's just that after Fei Qian listened to Ma Yue's whole story, a thought kept circling in his mind. What does Yu Fuluo mean?
According to Ma Yue, the Huns' cavalry strength was at least more than 3,000, which means that as long as Yu Fuluo has this determination, there is no big problem in eating the more than 500 people in Ma Yue, but now Yu Fuluo
Luo's approach was tantamount to driving him away without taking action.
Although Ma Yue's troops were lost, it was actually Ma Yue's lax control during the retreat and failure to detect and stop him in time, which caused Hu Qi to escape, and it was really not Fu Luo's fault.
"How was the situation in Pingyang County when you left?" Fei Qian asked.
Ma Yue said honestly: "At that time, he led troops to attack Baibo's rear camp, so Baibo who attacked the city was in chaos, and Liang Dao counterattacked and killed many... But later because of the Xiongnu... so the current situation..."
Fei Qian couldn't help but frown...
"Fengxiao, wait a minute...you lost this book, right?"
"Ah, yes, it's mine, thank you Wen Ruo."
"Fengxiao, are you looking for this?"
"My wine gourd! Hey, it's you... Wen Ruo, thank you!"
…
"Wen Ruo, what's wrong with you following me all the time?"
"I'm waiting for when Fengxiao loses himself, so I can pick him back up in the tent..."
