Chapter 625 Strength Geometry
After Tuoba Tao led the army to station at Huatai, the Military Supplies Director soon came to report, "Your Majesty, the army has been settled properly. I infer from the number of stoves that the Song Army had about [-] people stationed here before."

The sudden number was like a thorn, directly poking into Tuoba Tao's nerves.

"Six thousand..."

Tuoba Tao silently leaned back against the Xiongpirou, and the group of Lushuihu people who suddenly appeared on the mountain bag flashed in front of his eyes.

Although he couldn't see exactly how many people there were in that team, at least it was more than ten thousand.

Tuoba Tao suddenly sat up from the soft couch, the thoughts in his mind made him flustered for a moment.So how many people does Tan Yaoyu have now?

Thirty thousand?fifty thousand?or more?

When the group of people who went to round up Helian Ding last time came back, there were some rumors that Qiu Chi's Salvation Army had a magical weapon.

Although Tuoba Tao was annoyed at the time, he later deluded himself into thinking that it was Tan Yaoyu's deceptive trick.In order to give the world the illusion that although Qiu Chi is small, he cannot be deceived.

But just now Xi Jin also said that Qiu Chi's crossbow spear is so huge that even Ahura can't resist it.Now it seems that he underestimated the enemy? !

"Send someone to find out exactly how many troops Qiu Chi has now. Remember to be careful."

Tuoba Tao let out a foul breath, feeling extremely bored in his heart.

He vaguely felt that he was breeding tigers to make trouble, but he couldn't help worrying about Tan Yaoyu's injury.where will she goRevenge pool?Or go to Songdi?In short, it won't be Pingcheng...

Tuoba Tao was a little discouraged, today was probably the closest he was to catching Tan Yaoyu, and he just missed it for nothing... I'm afraid it will be difficult to have such a good opportunity again in the future.

Due to the appearance of Tan Zhaoyu, Tuoba Tao's original deployment was disrupted.

Although the Northern Wei Army quickly occupied the four towns in Henan, and even plundered everywhere along the river.Although there were scattered troops during the period, the location of the Song Dynasty army has never been found.

After Tuoba Tao's blood cooled down, he didn't dare to go deep into the enemy's hinterland easily.

At this time, the Great Song Dynasty Hall was already in chaos.The news that Yanzhi was injured and defeated was sent back to Jiankang first.

Since Dao Yanzhi didn't have the slightest intention of confrontation, he led the troops back all the way.But Tuoba Tao thought that the main force of the Southern Song Dynasty would ambush along the river to counterattack, so that the search area was also near the river.This allowed the main force of the Southern Song Dynasty to escape the encirclement and suppression of the Northern Wei army by chance.

There were many voices in the DPRK against handing over the military power of Hulu to Yanzhi.If it weren't for Liu Yilong's insistence, Yanzhi would definitely not be in charge of the army, regardless of seniority or combat experience.

Now Yanzhi's disastrous defeat directly discredited Liu Yilong.The burning of the warship made matters worse.Exhausted both physically and mentally, Liu Yilong fell ill as a matter of course.

A strong enemy is present, but the emperor is ill.Seeing that the army of the Northern Wei Dynasty was as powerful as a broken bamboo, at this time, the courtiers also ignored the infighting between the poor family and the clan, and began to play one after another, asking Tan Daoji to regain the military power.

King Pengcheng, who was once again entrusted with state affairs due to the emperor's illness, did not want to return the military power to Tan Daoji, but at this time the other generals had already been frightened by the Wei army, and only Tan Daoji could handle this hot potato.

Therefore, King Pengcheng could only reluctantly order to restore Tan Daoji's right to lead the army, and let him immediately lead his troops north to resist the invasion of the Northern Wei Dynasty.

But don't look at him handing over the military power to Tan Daoji, but he still has his own little Jiujiu in his heart.

Liu Yilong's brainwashing of him before was obviously successful, but now King Pengcheng only thinks about how to prevent Tan Daoji's momentum from overwhelming him.After all, at this time, the taste of power over the government and the opposition has already made him want to stop.

In the end, it was King Pengcheng's new favorite concubine who gave him an idea, whether to give soldiers or not.On the pretext that the national treasury was empty, Tan Daoji was only given food and grass for less than ten days, and he was sent to the front line.

King Pengcheng felt that as long as the grain and grass were still in his hands, Tan Daoji would not be successful.Little did they know that the Zhu family secretly helped Tan Daoji's lake army camp, food and grass were no longer a constraint on Tan Daoji.

After receiving the news, Tan Zhi and Tan Can, who had been sent to Qingzhou to avoid disaster, immediately rushed to Hulu and took over the barracks.

However, at this time, the Lake Army Battalion had been exhausted by Duan Hong, and it was barely enough to hold Qingzhou.Although the two brothers intend to fight the Wei thief for life and death, it is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice.

Tan Daoji was ordered in the face of danger. He had no warships, and he did not have enough troops. Although the Zhu family was helping with food and grass, he was afraid of being seen by others and implicated in inviting rain, so he did not dare to contact the Zhu family rashly.

Therefore, after regaining military power, Tan Daoji never launched a large-scale counterattack.Tuoba Tao's army was only restrained on the front line of Qingzhou, which made the Northern Wei Dynasty scruples and did not dare to go further south.It can be regarded as temporarily stabilizing the situation.

Tuoba Tao and Tan Daoji suffered a lot in several confrontations.He couldn't figure it out, even though his strength was several times that of Tan Daoji's, yet somehow he was repeatedly defeated.

Even if Tan Daoji can rely on his familiarity with the terrain and the use of various military techniques, he often makes four or two moves.

But in the face-to-face confrontation, it was obvious that his soldiers were stronger and braver, but why did they become soft-legged shrimps in front of the Song Army navy, and they couldn't stand firmly.

The leaders of the Northern Wei Dynasty would never have thought that this was a hidden danger that Tan Yaoyu planted for them when he attacked Rouran a few years ago.

At the beginning, Tuoba Tao believed in Tan Yaoyu's practice method, and ordered all armies to continue to use this method. After several years, the soldiers of the Northern Wei Dynasty became more and more unstable.It is not visible when riding a horse, but it is fully exposed once on the boat.

But no one suspected that Tan Yaoyu was responsible for this matter. It was only because the soldiers of the Northern Wei Dynasty were inland all the year round and were not good at water warfare.

Seeing that there was no hope of going south, Tuoba Tao simply turned his spearhead and swallowed the Xia Dynasty's Guanlong area including Pingliang, Guanzhong, and Longxi counties effortlessly.

Previously, Helian Ding disappeared for no reason on the way to Pingcheng, and he didn't know where to hide afterwards, whether he was alive or dead.But even if he is still alive, the Xia Dynasty is dead in name only.

This battle lasted for more than half a year, and finally ended with the disintegration of the Song Xia alliance and the complete victory of the Northern Wei Dynasty.Tuoba Tao returned to Pingcheng before the New Year's Eve, celebrated with great fanfare, and had a feast for Dadan.

After the war, the generals of all walks of life got a lot of benefits in terms of rewards for meritorious deeds.Even Xi Jin, who lost the war, was not held accountable and was able to retire and return home.

However, the most eye-catching reward is Kou Qianzhi, the Great National Teacher.

During this trip to the south, Kou Qianzhi made predictions for Tuoba Tao several times, and they often came true.When the northern and southern armies were unable to pull back, he proposed to attack the Xia land and further expand the territory of the Northern Wei Dynasty.

With such meritorious service, when Tuoba Tao decreed to build the Jinglun Temple for him with a lot of money, even though most of the dignitaries in the court were Buddhists, there were very few voices of opposition.

Although the Xia Dynasty had lost its land, Helian Ding was still alive and dead after all.In order to make the Xia people surrender, Tuoba Tao added the title of King Qin to He Lianchang.

What was even more unexpected was that Tuoba Tao actually accepted the opinions of Kou Qianzhi and Cui Hao, and married Princess Rouran whom he despised the most, who was the younger sister of the current Khan Wu Ti of Rouran, as his concubine.He married his younger sister, Princess Xihai, to Wu Ti.

This move greatly stabilized the situation in the north, and made the Northern Wei Dynasty's control over the entire north improved unprecedentedly.
