Chapter 466 On the usage of the Xiongnu royal court
Within half a quarter of an hour, all 2,000 of Ju Chengyi's troops were killed, and no one survived. The royal guard's loss was less than 400 horses.
"Split the troops into two groups, go all the way to Guangyan, and go straight down to pacify them."
"promise."
Now that the battle is over, it is time to harvest the peaches. Yuan Shu's cavalry troops are divided into two groups, each going to the two counties.
After this battle, all the foreign races in Xihe County were wiped out by Yuan Shu, and the nine counties returned to the hands of the Han Dynasty again.
"Gongda, where do you think we should fight next?
Yuan Shu was in the royal court of the Southern Xiongnu in Meiji. In front of him was a huge military map of Bingzhou.
After hearing Yuan Shu's question, Xun You raised his legs and came to the map.
"My lord, Shuofang County is adjacent to the Qiang and Hu territories. I think we should not move for the time being. We should start from Wuyuan County, where the Huns are the largest. We have a huge advantage as we have the Hun Royal Court in our hands. We can order the Hun Royal Court to issue an edict.
Say that Meiji is in danger, let all the ministries send troops to rescue them, and we can wait and annihilate them one by one. After taking over Wuyuan County, we can send troops to capture Dingxiang and Yunzhong counties."
Xun You thought for a moment and came up with a strategy of first going west and then east, weak first and then strong.
Yuan Shu nodded. He also thought the same way. Although Qianghu's current strength is not as good as Xianbei's, their teachings are too dense for Xianbei.
There are now more than 200,000 Qiang people living in Shuofang County. Although they are also fighting against each other, the biggest possibility for me to attack now is that they will unite to fight against me.
I'm not afraid of fighting him, but if there is too much damage, it will be very difficult for Wuyuan, Dingxiang, and Yunzhong counties to win.
"Military advisor, what if they don't come to rescue us? What should we do? Should we attack them all the way?"
Wen Chou took a look at the map and had some objections to Xun You's words.
"Zilong, tell me."
Xun You did not answer Wen Chou's question, but looked at Zhao Yun.
"Actually, the military advisor's plan is a serious conspiracy. We will annihilate these Xiongnu troops if they send troops. It's okay if we don't send troops. With the trump card of the Xiongnu Royal Court, we can lead the army under the banner of disrespecting orders.
Send troops northward and wipe out the Xiongnu tribes one by one, so that Wuyuan County can be easily obtained."
Zhao Yun sees things clearly. If someone comes, I will kill them. If someone doesn't come, they won't give me face. I will directly send troops to destroy them, and others will not gossip.
"What Zilong said is true. Conspiracies are easy to block, but evil schemes are difficult to guard against. Just follow Gongda's wishes."
"promise."
Twenty or thirty Huns cavalry, who had been trained by Yuan Shu, rode towards Wuyuan County on war horses. Their mission was to deliver the imperial edict to the tribe.
With the arrival of these cavalry, the news of Meiji's siege spread throughout Wuyuan County. The Xiongnu tribe had an absolute advantage in Wuyuan County, with nearly 200,000 people scattered in all directions.
Although these tribes left Xihe County, they are inextricably linked to the Southern Xiongnu Royal Court. Now that the Xiongnu Royal Court is under siege, more than 50% of the tribes immediately sent troops to rescue them.
As the saying goes, where there are close tribes, there are distant tribes. In addition to the tribes that are close, there are those who are distant. Less than half of the tribes choose to stay put and wait and see what happens.
A group of Xiongnu reinforcements poured into Meiji from all directions, with a total of nearly 40,000 horses.
"Zilong, you lead an army of 10,000 eagles and 10,000 Xianbei cavalry to the north to intercept them.
Boyu, lead 10,000 Weilu troops and 10,000 Wuhuan cavalry to the east to intercept them.
Uncle evil, you lead an army of 10,000 eagles and 10,000 Xianbei cavalry to intercept in the direction of Manbai.
Ju Yi, you lead 10,000 Weilu troops and 10,000 Wuhuan cavalry to intercept in the direction of Heyin.
Gao Shun, lead the remaining cavalry and the 7,000 dead cavalry to the direction of Linwo to intercept them."
"promise."
Regarding the upcoming Xiongnu reinforcements, Yuan Shu also mobilized his troops and sent out all the hundreds of thousands of cavalry, while the remaining troops were still stationed in Meiji.
Time passed by, and Wen Chou, who was in charge of Manbai's direction, was the first to start the battle. Twenty thousand cavalry fought against more than 7,000 Huns cavalry. The fight was smooth and easy.
In a quarter of an hour, seven thousand cavalry were beaten to a pulp, five thousand were killed, two thousand were captured, and no more than a hundred escaped.
After Wen Chou, Gao Shun also started the battle smoothly. The dead army was eager to fight. Facing more than 5,000 Xiongnu coalition troops, they roared and rushed over.
After all, the First Huns Army was the First Army of the Huns. They broke through the enemy with a single charge, and then there was a massacre like chopping up melons and vegetables. The five thousand Xiongnu coalition forces were all killed without taking any prisoners.
In addition to these two groups, the other three groups also fought successively, but the results were all the same: all the Xiongnu reinforcements of about 40,000 were destroyed.
"My lord, we can march into Wuyuan County."
All the reinforcements have been killed, and it's time to march into Wuyuan County.
"Go down and order the whole army to set off, targeting Wuyuan County."
"promise."
Wherever Yuan Shu's long sword points, thousands of cavalry are galloping, and thousands of armies are heading towards the direction. Everywhere you look is full of military flags fluttering in the wind, and the yellow sand is full of fast running teams.
"Clan leader, it's not good."
A Hun cavalry quickly ran into a large tent.
"What's wrong?"
Wenluolba, the leader of the Chehel tribe, frowned and looked at the tribesmen in front of him.
"Clan leader, countless troops have been sent from the direction of Meiji, under the banner of annihilating the rebellion, they are coming to kill them."
The clan members looked at the clan leader, their eyes filled with horror.
"What are you afraid of? Immediately contact me the Doker Tribe, Kanlunqi Tribe, Dabuz Tribe, Buchetan Tribe, and Yunqilang Tribe, and ask them to lead their troops to jointly defend against the enemy."
Although the tribesmen said it was very scary, Wenluo Erba was not afraid. There were only so many Xiongnu people. Even if Meiji was besieged by others, even if the rescue was timely, the losses would be huge. Even if you killed the entire army, how many people would there be.
"promise,"
The tribes Wenluoerba mentioned were not good enemies. They had not calmed down since they came out of the royal court. When they heard that Meiji was sending troops to strangle themselves, they did not hesitate and rushed to the Chehel tribe with all their troops.
Within five days, Yuan Shu's army arrived, and reinforcements from Wenluo Erba also arrived one after another.
"Reporting to my lord, Chehel's troops have gathered four troops, with a total of about 50,000 cavalry, and have set up a formation thirty miles in front of our troops."
The scout reported the discovered information to Yuan Shu's account.
"Gongda."
Yuan Shu glanced at Xun You who was standing aside.
"Lord, there are two strategies for you to choose from in this battle."
Xun You stood up directly and came to Kan Yu's side.
"Say it."
Yuan Shu smiled and spoke to Xun You.
"The first is to follow the strategy of the two counties in Yuanyang and Yuanbei and send rangers to support the Chehel tribe. I believe they will definitely return to support the tribe after receiving the news. This will give us opportunities to defeat each other.
The second is simple, use your power to overwhelm others and kill them openly and openly."
After Xun You finished speaking, he looked at Yuan Shu, waiting for his choice.
"The first strategy is good, but it takes too long. It is impossible to say that the war has already started here just after the rangers were sent out. Instead of doing this, it is better to have a simple battle and let those who occupy Wuyuan, Yunzhong, Dingxiang, and Shuofang
Foreign races, look at our strength."
Yuan Shu thought for a while and decided directly to have a head-to-head contest.
