Wei Ni

The spring breeze brings joy to horses' hoofs, and people feel refreshed on happy occasions.

After resting for a whole day and night, the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry and the Hussar Battalion returned to Pingyi with the joy of the strategy. Everyone was in high spirits and returned to Pingyi. Even the bleak and dilapidated scenery after autumn could not remind them of the thousands of miles away. Nostalgia beyond.

Xia Houhui was even more indulgent.

I saw him lying on his back on the war horse with his head in his hands without any general demeanor, squinting his eyes and staring at the white clouds above the sky. He didn't know what he was thinking, and there was a smile on the corner of his mouth.

He really felt comfortable.

Because he had almost achieved his goal of merging the state with the expedition, and he also received additional joy.

Needless to say, the achievement was to defeat the Yuzhu Gejian tribe and 20,000 Mobei cavalry at the cost of less than a hundred cavalry. Even if the number of kills was not a lot, it would definitely be praised by Emperor Cao Rui and solidify the authority to lead the army alone in the future. Base.

As for the main force of Kirby Neng, which is still confronting the Wei army in Beiping, it is not yet known when it will be defeated~

That is a matter between Qin Lang and Tian Yu.

He was just the general of the backbone camp, and the actual military power of the backbone camp was still in the hands of the battalion deputy, so he had no need or qualification to worry about that. Especially in the pre-war planning, both Qin Lang and Tian Yu agreed and implemented his suggestions of alienating Kebi Neng and Bu Dugen, and sending Wuhuan Tuqi to Dingxiang County to kill Hukou and set up an ambush. This was considered the whole process. It’s time to consult the military strategy and benefit the war.

With Tian Yu, who is familiar with border warfare, he has nothing to comment on in this battle.

As the saying goes, "You can seek with the few but not with the many; you can benefit from sharing but not alone."

In any case, his authority still remains on the Huainan battlefield.

Knowing clearly that the emperor Cao Rui sent troops to attack the Xianbei bandit chief Kebi Neng was not only to restore the prestige of Jing'an's northern border and restore the defeat of Qiandi's minister Bi Gui, but also to experience Qin Lang and Cao Shuang and to let Tian Yu manage the Bingzhou Hetao. He was so shameless. Xia Houhui, who took the initiative and was allowed to participate in the war by Emperor Cao Rui, had already made achievements in advancing strategies and breaking attacks. How could he be greedy for more?

If he is mainly anti-customer and all the benefits are taken advantage of by him alone, wouldn't this be a hindrance to his career in the future~

Therefore, now he has made up his mind that when he returns to Daijun Beiping, he will be silent and will no longer participate in the progress of the war. Anyway, he sent back the three cavalrymen including Baima Yicong, which directly challenged Qin Lang's authority as the general. No matter how generous Qin Lang was, he would not be remembered in the next war.

In this way, just treat yourself as a spectator.

If you are really too busy to panic, just go and observe Tian Yu's command before the battle, which will also benefit you in supervising your troops in the future.

The extra joy was that he felt that it was appropriate to accept Han Long as his subordinate!

The reason is that everyone in the temple knows that Emperor Cao Rui is very dissatisfied with the peace between Liaodong Gongsun and the thief Wu Sunquan, and has always wanted to raise an army to attack him. However, it was only postponed because the imperial strategy was mentioned and put into action. That’s all. Therefore, it can also be inferred that once plans for war begin in the future, it will be inevitable for Emperor Cao Rui to transfer Wang Xiong, the governor of Youzhou, to another place.

Xia Houhui can be sure that when Wang Xiong leaves office in Youzhou, he will never take Han Long with him!

He was just a humble man from the frontier, how could he enter the eyes of Wang Xiong, who was born in the Wang family of Langya.

In other words, maybe Wang Xiong today doesn't even remember that his confidant recruited someone like Han Long.

Therefore, Xia Houhui can already sigh with joy in advance - it is inevitable for a warrior like Han Long to fall into my lap!

Yes, that's a warrior.

In the original historical trajectory, Han Long was the one who assassinated Kirby~

Being able to assassinate Kebi, the leader of the Xianbei tribe who had unified Mobei and dominated Monnan, his bravery and careful thinking were at least better than those of a thousand-stone general.

Two flowers bloom, one branch each.

Just when Xia Houhui and his party returned from Pingyi in the north of Dai County with great joy, Kebineng, who had more than 100,000 troops and had gone south from Pingcheng to confront the Wei army, had a gloomy face and full of anger. He had just seen the messenger sent by his son-in-law Yuzhu Gejian.

He also knew that his carefully planned back-up plan was discovered by the Wei army and was defeated.

Yes, it was attacked.

Although the 20,000 Mobei Xianbei cavalry suffered only a few casualties in the Wei army's sneak attack, with approximately more than 3,000 casualties, many of whom only needed a few days of rest to return to battle, Yuzhu Gejian's messenger told him that he was still willing to The Mobei cavalry who continued to stay in Monan to assist him in the battle only had eight thousand left.

The reason is also attributed to the grand alliance ruling system on the grassland.

This reinforcement of 20,000 cavalry was called by Kirby Neng and was pieced together from various tribes in Mobei.

The strength of each tribe is different, and the losses among the tribesmen in the Wei army's attack are also different.

Some tribal leaders whose tribesmen had suffered heavy losses felt that if they continued to stay in Monan to help the war, even if Kirby could defeat the Wei army and fulfill his promise to divide the pastures and give them, their tribes would not have the strength to hold on to the fruits of victory.

In this case, it is better to go back, there is no need to make wedding clothes for others.

Some tribal leaders who had not suffered many losses lost confidence in Kirby and could not see the hope of victory in this battle.

If you think about it carefully, this idea is understandable.

Kirby has been the most powerful tribal leader in Monan for more than ten years, and his son-in-law Yu Zhugejian's tribe has been in the Yanghe River Basin for a generation. What's the result?

The Wei army actually sneaked into the tribe's habitat and attacked them secretly!

Moreover, the prerequisite for the sneak attack was that Kirby could personally lead more than 100,000 string control men to confront the Wei army in camp.

What kind of leadership will allow the enemy to escape from under your nose without even realizing it; what kind of territorial control will cause the enemy to be killed before you know it?

How dare you expect to usher in the dawn of victory when you follow such a tribal leader!

Although the lush aquatic plants and the more suitable climate in Monan are enviable and exciting, some Mobei tribal leaders hope that they can survive, so they left without saying goodbye.

They were discovered by the Wei army as a surprise force, and the reinforcements were reduced sharply from 20,000 cavalry to 8,000.

This result made Kirby Neng feel melancholy, but he could not blame the departing Mobei leaders for anything. He could only secretly curse his son-in-law Yu Zhugejian, angry that he could not be reused.

But this is not the time to hold Yu Zhu revolutionary construction responsible, nor is it the time to encourage the remaining eight thousand Mobei knights, but to resolve the impact of this incident.

It was impossible to hide the surprise attack by the Wei army from the tribal leaders gathered around him.

It was okay for him to be a die-hard loyal tribe member. He only needed to calm down and comfort him a few times to stabilize the morale of the army.

But Bu Dugen, who was also a tribal leader and had just made peace with him, and who had defected from Wei State, was not so easily fooled.

If one thing is not handled well, the consequences will not be as simple as alienation. (End of chapter)
