Chapter 68 Pingnan destroys thieves and chases north to perish [2]
Between the river rushing southward and the Taihang Mountains stretching north and south, on the steep Bingzhou-Hebei Avenue, an elite Wei cavalry team was galloping towards the north at this moment.
From the words "Protect Wuhuan Xiaowei Xie" on the leading tooth flag, it can be judged that this is the unit where Jie Jun went north to pursue King Kebineng of Xianbei.
While Jie Jun was chasing after him at full speed, a messenger on a horse behind him came flying to report:
"Report, report to the captain. Three miles away from behind, we found a large force of Xianbei cavalry. Because of the smoke and dust, we can't see how many there are!"
When Xie Jun heard this, his heart sank, and he secretly screamed, why did the Xianbei cavalry appear behind him? Could it be that he was too careless and fell into Kebineng's ambush plan?
In any case, no matter whether the Xianbei cavalry behind him was an enemy or a friend, Xie Jun knew that he had to turn around and prepare at this time.
"The whole army obeys the order! The rear team becomes the front team and get ready to meet the enemy!"
"only!"
After hearing the order, the ten messengers immediately galloped towards the south. Within a moment, the knights who received the order quickly changed their formations under the command of the commanders of each battalion and camp, and prepared for the possibility of danger from the south.
The attacking enemy.
As the sound of horse hooves from the south became clearer and clearer, Xie Jun realized that he might have had a false alarm. Because, he saw a large banner swaying in the wind among the smoke and dust billowing from the south.
There are three characters in the big book: "King Guiyi".
He knew that this was only King Bu Dugen of Guiyi who came to support him.
The two great Wei border warriors finally met.
"Unknown King Guiyi has arrived, Xie Jun missed the welcome from afar, please forgive me!" Xie Jun was wearing armor, so he just slightly cupped his hands in accordance with military etiquette.
"Lieutenant Jie Xiao, you're welcome. I have been ordered by the Governor of Wu to pursue the traitor Ke Bineng's remnant soldiers. Since I have met the captain, why don't we pursue the enemy together?"
Hearing that the other party came to pursue together, Xie Jun said with great joy:
"So good!"
After the handover, the two armies quickly joined forces and then continued to run towards the north, pursuing the defeated wolf cavalry of Kebi Neng with all their strength.
Outside the south city of Dingxiang County.
Ke Bineng, the righteous king of Xianbei, and his tens of thousands of defeated soldiers were making final repairs at this moment.
Everyone has a bright mirror in their minds. If they can break through the defense of Dingxiang County, they may return to the grassland tribe base camp in the north and wait for an opportunity to make a comeback and make a comeback.
If they cannot break through Dingxiang and retreat, they will have no choice but to lead the Wolf Cavalry, which is short of food and hungry, to risk their lives and go south to fight to the death with Qianzhao and Jie Jun's Jingqi.
Kebineng tightened the wolfskin armor tightly, wiped the remaining blood on the blade with his leather robe, and ordered loudly with all his strength:
"Brothers, conquer Dingxiang and go home!"
"Go home, go home, go home!"
The roaring wolf riders, like crazy hungry wolves, pounced on Dingxiang Nancheng, which was far less well-defended than Xihe County.
――――
"King Guiyi, Dingxiang City is coming soon!"
Jie Jun, who was driving two horses, changed his horse to another mount that had been resting for half a day, while looking at Dingxiang City in the distance where the dust was everywhere but there was little sound of killing.
"It seems that Dingxiang City did not stop Ke Bineng."
Bu Dugen, who was familiar with cavalry, used his extraordinary eyesight and ears to carefully observe the outline of Dingxiang City in the distance, and then expressed his judgment.
"How could it be possible? No matter how brave and skilled Kebineng was, how could he lead some defeated soldiers who only relied on cavalry and lacked equipment to capture a border city of our great Wei Dynasty in such a short period of time!"
Xie Jun was emotional, firstly because he did not believe that Kebineng could have such ability, and secondly because he was upset that he had not been able to successfully catch up with Kebineng and annihilate the main force of Xianbei.
Bu Dugen, who has read countless people, could see the young general's thoughts at a glance, so he comforted Xie Jun and said:
"Lieutenant Jie Xiao, don't be upset. In my opinion, Ke Bi Neng was able to escape successfully not because he and his wolf cavalry are so brave and invincible, but because someone deliberately let him go!"
Xie Jun was even more surprised when he heard this:
"So there are spies in our army!"
Bu Dugen looked nervous and surprised when he saw Jun. He shook his head and said with a smile:
"There is no spy who can open the gate of a county so easily. In my opinion, this matter was either done by Commander Liang or arranged by Captain Tian."
"King Guiyi said..."
A smile appeared on Xie Jun's face at this moment.
"good."
Bu Dugen smiled and said:
"Our army is in the north of Dingxiang City, and there must be an ambush in the Yunzhong area. Lieutenant Jie Xiao, let's continue chasing, drive!"
"Okay, then follow what the king said, boys and men, chase after me!"
The cavalry of the Wei Dynasty, which had just stopped, embarked on the journey to the north again.
――――
Yunzhong County boundary.
"Wolves, we have broken out of the cage and are going home!"
Ke Bi Neng, who originally planned to fight to the death, never thought that he could break through Dingxiang so easily. It seemed that God was determined to defeat him.
Just as Ke Bi Neng looked up to the sky and laughed, riding his horse back to the north, he almost reached the dust flying in the east and the banner of "Wuhuan Fu Yihou".
Kebineng felt relieved. It seemed that his younger brother Juluohou, Wang Tong, and Wang Ji had returned. At this moment, Kebineng, who had escaped from death, no longer valued victory or defeat. As long as his brother was safe, his brother
You can make a comeback.
As the more than a thousand defeated Wuhuan cavalry sent by Wang and Wang gradually approached, Kebineng had not yet seen the banner of his younger brother Juluohou.
"The two Fu Yihou, why don't you see your younger brother Juluohou?"
After hearing Ke Bineng's words, Wang and Wang Ji looked at each other and smiled:
"My brother Ju Luohou went against the will of heaven and dared to become the enemy of the Huanghuang Wei Dynasty. He really did not know whether to live or die. He has died in the battle. We are specially ordered by Liang Shijun to come with Captain Tian Yu to exterminate you.
Rebel!"
When Ke Bi Neng heard this, he was horrified and then furious. In addition, when he heard the news of his brother's death, he felt sad and mixed with all kinds of emotions. He raised his sword and cursed Wang Tong and Wang Ji:
"Shameless rat, how dare you betray your covenant and harm my brother!"
When Wang Tong heard this, he sneered, raised his whip and cursed:
"Kebineng, you seduced my two brothers and came to invade Wei. You struck stones with eggs, and as a result, we lost many of our tribes in vain. Now that we have surrendered to Wei, we are about to take your head to claim your merits!"
"
After Kebineng heard this, he was filled with shame and anger. He was about to mount his horse and wield his sword and step forward to challenge for a fight in person, but was blocked by his confidant Suo Nu. Suo Nu admonished him:
"Your Majesty, why bother to fight with them? Don't you see that in the past, Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty was trapped, escaped disguised as a woman, made a comeback, and finally dominated the world. Now that the Wei army has not completed the encirclement, why bother, Your Majesty?"
Kebi Neng heard the words. Although he knew that this was a good idea, he just couldn't swallow it.
Suo Nu saw that Ke Bineng had no intention of changing his mind, so he raised his sword and hammer and shouted loudly:
"In that case, Your Majesty, Zonu invites you to fight!"
Ke Bineng hesitated for a moment and nodded.
Zuo Nu saluted again, then rode out into battle, charging towards the Wei army with more than a thousand fire wolf cavalry under his command.
Tian Yu, who had already arrived in front of the formation, saw that Suo Nu, wearing heavy red wolf skin armor, holding a large red copper hammer weighing more than 40 kilograms, and sitting on a flaming red rouge horse outside the Great Wall, he was indeed brave and incomparable.
match.
"Crossbowman fires continuously!"
Tian Yu did not want to confront the opponent's elite head-on, so he made a prompt decision and issued this order.
Before Zonu could charge to the front of the Wei army's formation, he was hit by an arrow in his shoulder. He roared in pain, broke the wolf's fang shaft, and continued to launch a ferocious attack.
Not long after, Zuonu and his thousand fire wolf cavalry finally rushed into the Wei army's formation.
Suonu was unparalleled in bravery, bronze hammers were everywhere, flesh and blood were flying everywhere, and the morale of the Wei army was somewhat solidified for a while.
Seeing this, Tian Yu continued to ask the crossbowmen to wait for opportunities to fire, and at the same time arranged a shield array to block the footsteps of these Xianbei cavalry.
Once the speed of the cavalry is slowed down, the cavalry will become a target for heavy infantry and crossbowmen to massacre.
No matter how brave Zonu was, he was unable to save himself at this moment. Just when Zonu was trapped in a tight siege and knew that he had a narrow escape from death, he turned around and shouted in the loudest voice:
"Your Majesty, leave quickly!"
Kebi could see that his beloved general was trapped in a tight siege. He was so overwhelmed by hatred that he immediately rode forward, but he was tightly surrounded by his own soldiers.
"King, let's go, let's go!"
The soldiers grabbed the reins of Ke Bineng's horse and surrounded him and ran towards the north.
"Zonu! Zuonu!"
Kebi Neng turned his head to the south and yelled Zonu's name crazily.
Zonu, who was trapped in the battle, heard the voice of his king. A smile appeared on his ferocious face.
Finally, the arrow penetrated the heavy armor and the bronze hammer hit the ground.
This red general star finally fell on the dividing line of the Northern Territory of the Great Wei Dynasty.
At this time, King Bu Dugen of Guiyi and the cavalry of Wuhuan Colonel Xie Jun also arrived at Yunzhong County.
Tian Yu, Xie Jun, Bu Dugen, and the troops of Wuhuan Fuyihouwang and Wangji, who had just surrendered to the Wei Dynasty, surrounded Zoonu's elite and the tens of thousands of wolf riders who were behind Kebineng's palace.
In Gaixin, after repeated attacks, tens of thousands of wolf riders were finally annihilated in the desert of Yunzhong County.
The remaining 30,000 wolf riders disappeared into the wind of Mobei together with Xianbei King Kebineng.
――――――
Xihe County.
Yu Huan, who couldn't figure out why Xia Houxuan knew so many secrets despite racking his brains, couldn't help but ask Xia Houxuan:
"Brother Xuan, why did you know about the changes in the northern border in advance, and why did you predict that His Majesty would encounter danger in Licheng County when you were in the northern border?"
Xia Houxuan, who was wiping his armor, smiled slightly after hearing Yu Huan's doubts:
"Some things rely on favors, such as Liang Shi in the north, and my uncles from the Xiahou family who live in different places. Another example is my uncle in Yongliang, uncle Wenlie in Yangzhou, and my father in Jingzhou.
.”
Yu Huan suddenly realized it and asked again:
"Then, what else is going on?"
Xia Houxuan was thoughtful:
"There are still some things that rely on luck and guesswork."
After hearing this, Yu Huan nodded his head and scratched his tiger head as if he understood.
