Chapter 133 Chu Luo Appears
"Don't dare, as the general said, the victory in this battle depends entirely on the lives of the soldiers of the three armies, and the green bird is only a trivial effort." Jiang Chengxiao responded calmly.

Although he notified in time that Liu Ziqi led the army to successfully annihilate the Jiaoli Ministry, he still felt a little uncomfortable in his heart. If he had been able to detect Jiaoli's real intention earlier, perhaps the more than 1000 people would not have died tragically.To put it bluntly, he was still a little concerned about his strategic loss to Jiao Li.

Liu Ziqi laughed, and said: "Jiang Huan's cavalry is too modest. If you hadn't stopped the Turkic soldiers and horses in Xizhoushan and informed the general of Jiao Li's movements, maybe Jiao Li would have really retreated this time." He also had lingering fears about this, if he hadn't notified him in time this time, maybe Jiali had really escaped from Loufan Pass.

He Ruojuan didn't notice the pimple in Jiang Chengxiao's heart, he took it as his modesty, and praised him immediately.All the generals in the hall naturally flattered him and congratulated him on his first victory.On that day, He Ruoyu ordered the army to rest for a day, and set off for Dingxiang County tomorrow to retake Dali City in one fell swoop.

After leaving the lobby, Jiang Chengxiao was walking on the street of Shanyang County, Zu Yan was leading the horse, and followed the master silently.Although they won this time, the master didn't seem very happy, and always looked worried.

Shanyang County had already been breached by the Turks before, and the small town, which had been deserted due to the blizzard, seemed even more dead after being looted by the Turks.The one or two ordinary people who can be seen occasionally are also a group of old and weak. They are nestled in the corner, looking very helpless and desperate at the moment.

Unconsciously, he walked to the gate of Shanyang County. Although Shanyang County is the county seat of Mayi County, the city is not particularly tall, which is inseparable from the remoteness of the place.In fact, Shanyang County existed more as a fortress of the Dali City. If the Dali City had not been breached in the first place, it would not have suffered an indiscriminate disaster.

After all, the imperial court was too careless this time, ignoring that the Turks who had been ravaged by the snowstorm would go south so soon. In the hasty confrontation, the city of Dali was lost, which caused some counties in Mayi County and Loufan County to be looted .

However, thinking of this, Jiang Chengxiao suddenly had a doubt.He felt that the Turkic people going south this time was just like a joke. Could it be that Cao Li's brain was trampled by a horse's hoof? He thought he could plunder Bingzhou with only [-] soldiers and horses, and then he could escape safely?

Does he look down on the Jin army, or does he think that the Jin emperor is a softie like the former Wei emperor?
According to common sense, the Turkic people should not divide their troops. They should gather [-] troops and go south directly, so that the court will find it quite difficult to deal with, but once they divide their troops, they will give the Jin army a chance to defeat them one by one.

Not only is Qiao Li's brain broken, but Chu Luo's brain is also broken?

No, King Zhao once told him that Chu Luo was not an ordinary treacherous person, and he would never do such a thankless thing.From this point of view, there are only two possibilities for Jiao Li to go south, one is that he made his own claim, and the other is that Chu Luo did it deliberately.

Judging from the confrontation with Jiao Liwei, this person is not the kind of brainless fool, he should understand the pros and cons, and it should not be his arbitrariness.So why did Chu Luo do this on purpose?

Jiang Chengxiao walked outside the city, and the guards on both sides gave him a military salute.Leaning on the city wall, he was thinking hard about the purpose of going south this time.The obvious situation now is that Jiao Li got nothing this time, and since he entered Bingzhou with only [-] troops, his end was doomed.

But why would he do this.Wars have a purpose, the Turkic wars are not for territory, they are for supplies and population.But Jiang Chengxiao didn't believe that Jiao Li didn't know what he couldn't loot during this trip, so there must be some other reason that made him have to bite the bullet and go south when he knew he would get nothing.

"What?" Jiang Chengxiao frowned, reviewing the whole thing.

Cao Li went south from Dali City to Mayi County and Loufan County.Dulan went south from Yulin City to Yulin County, Diaoyin County
While he was thinking hard, a shout suddenly came from ahead: "You Xiaowei urgently reported that Suide County fell, and the general's house was built and died in battle. He led an army of 15 to go south to Yan'an County, and quickly helped!"

In the lobby of Shanyang County, the joy of the previous victory disappeared, and an urgent report from Diaoyin County directly broke the tranquility.General He Ruoyu urgently held a military meeting. He stood in front of the generals with a heavy face and said, "Let's all have a look." As he spoke, he picked up the urgent military letter from the table and let the generals pass it on to each other. .

When the generals saw what was said in the letter, some sighed, some were frightened and angry, and some begged He Ruojuan to immediately send troops to assist Yan'an County.When the letter reached Jiang Chengxiao, he couldn't help frowning when he saw the description of the battle situation above.

You Xiaowei first went north and recovered Yincheng and Fuchang one after another. The Dulan Department was defeated and defeated. However, in the area of ​​Liangushu, it was attacked by the Chuluo army who had been hiding there. 5 people were wiped out. The general built his house and died in battle, and only a few hundred people escaped.

So it turned out that Jiang Chengxiao seemed to understand a little bit. Chu Luo put out two baits to attract the imperial soldiers to attack in two ways.He waited on the sidelines, because his party lost too quickly a few days ago, so he chose the route of the blue team.

"Everyone, the military situation is urgent now. To the south of Yan'an County is Shangjun, and to the south is Jingzhao County. We must stop Chuluo." He Ruofei didn't have time to feel sad about building the house at this time. He just wanted to send troops to stop Chuluo immediately. Luo continued to go south. Once they entered Shangjun, Jingzhao County would also be in jeopardy.

Liu Ziqi immediately said: "General, we must lead our troops back to help, otherwise the capital is in danger!"

Han Zhong also nodded and said, "General, let's give the order. If Chu Luo is not stopped, if he is allowed to enter Jingzhao County from Shang County, then everyone will be to blame."

You know, the capital city is in Jingzhao County!

He Ruojuan nodded, and he immediately said: "Order the three armies to pack their bags, the cavalry go first, and the infantry later, go to Yan'an County immediately. Be sure to stop Chuluo from going south." After finishing speaking, he said to Jiang Chengxiao: " Jiang Huqi, I will give you [-] pawns, and I must give you back the city of Dali."

what? !

Jiang Chengxiao was taken aback for a moment, and then said: "General, the military situation in Yan'an County is urgent now, and there are 15 soldiers and horses at the disposal. Is it inappropriate to divide the troops at this moment?"

He Ruoyu said in a deep voice: "Because Yan'an County is in danger, the general will need quick reinforcements. The infantry is too slow, and only cavalry can do it. The general is not as simple as asking you to lead 5000 people and just take the city of Dali. You have to I will guard the city of Italy."

"Alright, the last general will obey!" Jiang Chengxiao cupped his hands.

Following He Ruoyu's order, Zuo Xiaowei's army immediately moved into action. There were nearly [-] cavalry in Zuo Xiaowei. After removing the infantry who died in Bingzhou, there were about [-] infantry left, most of them He was wounded in the battle and had to stay in Shanyang County to recuperate.The five thousand pawns that He Ruoyu gave him were indeed the last pawns.

At the gate of Shanyang City, He Ruoyu led [-] cavalry to gallop out, with flags fluttering behind him, and the wind howled fiercely. Teams of cavalry followed closely behind, and smoke and dust rose all over the sky amidst the sound of horseshoes.

Jiang Chengxiao stood on the city, looking at the continuous array of cavalry with complicated eyes.The order given by He Ruoyu just now was too sudden, and he couldn't understand the deep meaning of it for a moment. Thinking about it afterwards, He Ruoyu was probably protecting him.With 15 cavalry against [-] Turkic soldiers and horses, no matter how you look at it, it is a dead end.

"Is Jiang Hussar worried about the situation in Yan'an County?" Chariot General Zhao Jiao stood beside him.

Jiang Chengxiao nodded, "Yes, the general only has 15 cavalry, how can he resist Chu Luo's [-] troops."

Hearing this, Zhao Jiao comforted him and said, "Jiang Huqi doesn't need to worry, presumably the capital should have received an urgent letter from Yan'an County. When His Majesty sends a large army to station in Yan'an County, Chu Luo will definitely not get any benefits."

"I hope." Jiang Chengxiao murmured, for some reason, he always had an intuition that the matter was not over yet, and an inexplicable uneasiness quietly swarmed in his heart.
