"This means that this elite army must be able to withstand the same pressure as our large army now, and may even be attacked more fiercely by the Turks." Yu Yi then said, "When the Turks
When they realize that there is no way forward in a short period of time, they will not allow their own way back to be cut off."
Hou Mi and Yu Xi, two young men who had long been unable to bear it, were eager to give it a try. When they heard what Yu Yi said, it was like a bucket of cold water being poured down on them. Before Hou Mi could speak, Yu Xi had already endured it.
He couldn't help but say: "The general's words are true, but with more than a thousand soldiers and horses, we have also blocked the Turks' fierce attack for several days."
Secretary Hou also said: "The Turks have been trapped in the valley for a long time. They don't have much food, grass, cattle and sheep. When they really run out of food, the Han slaves in the tribe and even members of their own tribe will
How long can we really hold on to the old, weak, sick and disabled among them? So as long as we tightly block their mouths, we can even make them submissive and let them fight among themselves..."
"Not to mention anything else, do you really think it's as easy as wandering around the wilderness on horseback just like before, just collecting information?" Yu Yi's voice was also a bit colder, "You two
Do you want to repeat Li Ling’s old story?”
Li Ling, a young general of the Li family in Longxi of the Western Han Dynasty, once led eight thousand light troops to attack the Huns. He was trapped in a valley and surrendered to the Huns after a bloody battle. This was also regarded by many as a shame for the light army's combat strategy. Now a famous general of the Northern Zhou Dynasty
Li Mu claimed to be the descendant of Li Ling who stayed on the grassland.
Yu Yi directly said Li Ling's name, which made Hou Mi and Yu Xi startled. Then they shuddered subconsciously. As generals, they had learned this knowledge since they were young, so they naturally knew what Yu Yi said.
What consequences does it mean?
They don't dare to become another Li Ling in the history books, nor do they want to.
Cao Zhong coughed lightly. In any case, this was his own tactic. Yu Yi's direct rejection would not give him face, so Cao Zhong also expressed his dissatisfaction in a timely manner.
Yu Yi raised his eyelids slightly and said calmly: "Anyway, this should be the best way to solve the problem, but it is obviously not advisable to advance the elite troops quickly. When the time comes to fight in the wind and snow in the north, we will not even have anything
There is no difference between relying on it and dying. The main reason why we can block the Turks here is because we have Huile City. If we don't even have a city, why should we block the Turks?"
"What do you mean by the old general?" Cao Zhong also found that he was a little anxious, and his voice softened a bit.
"Anyway, we are now taking turns to go into battle when we return to Lecheng. Most of our army is actually behind us, and we can only watch the changes in the battle situation in front. So since we have made up our minds, we can simply dispatch half of our troops and go directly to
If you want to block the entrance of the valley on the north side, block it thoroughly and not give the Turks any room to maneuver." Yu Yi's voice became more and more fierce, and the old general's beard was stretched out, as if all the snow and fighting in the north were already under his control.
Under control.
"At that time, we will advance in two directions..." Cao Zhong clicked on the sand table, "and completely annihilate the Turks in this valley!"
Yu Yi nodded slightly and glanced at Hou Mi and Yu Xi.
There is indeed no one else available now.
"Does the general need to take action personally?" Yu Yi said calmly.
Yu Xi and Hou Mi immediately trembled. For what they said, they would be fools if they didn't understand. They hurriedly handed over their hands at the same time: "General, please go!"
Seeing Yu Xi and Hou Mi go away happily, Yu Yi just sighed: "Young people, you still have to let them know some difficulties, otherwise the arrogant and powerful generals will be defeated."
Cao Zhong looked at the markings on the sand table and remained silent.
I have to say that I still have a long way to go before becoming a qualified commander. Perhaps Yu Yi's appearance at this time can be regarded as my luck, otherwise I don't know what will go wrong by then.
And is all this part of His Majesty's plan?
Your Majesty's chess moves are truly incomprehensible to people.

Luoyang.
Since the Eastern Han Dynasty, this place has been the center of the world, connecting north and south, connecting east and west, and where the world is prosperous. The wars and migrations in the late Eastern Han Dynasty also destroyed this century-old city. Although Cao Wei moved the capital back, for a long time,
Luoyang has not recovered its strength.
Later, during the Five Husties and the Northern and Southern Dynasties, wars continued, and Luoyang became the junction of the two separatist centers, Chang'an and Yecheng, and a place for back and forth. Especially in the Northern Zhou and Northern Qi dynasties, the two sides fought around Luoyang.
After the war that lasted for several generations, famous emperors and generals such as Lanling King Gao Changgong, Yu Wenyong, Yu Chijiong and Li Mu all stood out in Luoyang.
It is a pity that after Luoyang unified the north in the Northern Zhou Dynasty, there was not much chance to breathe, and it once again became the focus of competition between Yu Wenxian and Yang Jian. Now Luoyang is in the hands of Yuchi Jiong, and it is the front line against Yang Jian and Li Xinchen from the southwest.
Historically, Yu Wenxian was killed by Yang Jian before he could escape Chang'an in time. As the leader of the civil and military forces who stood against Yang Jian, Yu Chijiong directly raised troops to resist in Yecheng. Unfortunately, he was weak and was defeated by Yang Jian.
and Yang Jian also realized that as long as Yecheng existed, another center of power would always be formed in Hebei, so he simply razed Yecheng to the ground and moved the residents of Yecheng to what became Anyang, and that was the end.
The two centers of Chang'an and Yecheng are in a constant tug of war around Luoyang.
But obviously from now on, I am afraid that this stalemate will continue for some time.
Today, the heavily fortified city of Luoyang ushered in a team of carriages and horses.
The few people in the city quietly pushed open the closed windows and looked at these people and horses. Although they were used to seeing soldiers coming and going, they had not seen such a well-dressed car and horse team for a long time.
Everyone is a horse from the northwest. The leading soldier is holding a red flag. The golden dragon on the flag is baring its teeth and claws. On the flag next to the flag, a big Chinese character "Han" catches everyone's eyes.
Behind these two identity flags is a festival flag indicating the identity of this team of chariots and horses, indicating that they are envoys of the Han Dynasty.
Many people watching the excitement subconsciously wanted to say "Nanman", but they quickly swallowed the word that was almost on their lips.
Because the soldiers passing by had bright armor and wore white feathers symbolizing etiquette on their helmets, anyone with a little knowledge would know that this was the attire of Yu Lin, the invincible Han Dynasty who once roamed the grasslands in history.
And on the chariot and horse behind this, the envoy of the Han Dynasty wore a wide robe and long sleeves, and was dressed in deep red. A solemn aura rushed towards his face. (To be continued)
