Domination of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 646 Repelling the Enemy 2
Just when Hua Xiong led his subordinates to join the battlefield, Gongsun Xu was leading his subordinates and the captive army several hundred miles away.The work of rectifying the captives went smoothly. After all, Yan Xing had expressed his surrender, and his subordinates had no reason to object.

These Xiliang soldiers don't care much about who they work for, anyway, as long as someone can give them hope.What's more, they followed Han Sui just because they wanted to make a living and get ahead, but if they followed Gongsun Xu now, they hoped to be even bigger.

Of course, among the more than 2 captives, there must be some who are loyal to Han Sui. At the beginning, thousands of people fled the [-] army under Yan Xing's command. They were definitely loyal to Han Sui, otherwise they would not have been in this situation. He also thought about fleeing back to Xiliang to report to Han Sui.

You know, they are actually very unsafe when they have become a defeated army. At that time, Gongsun Xu had sent pursuers to chase them down. If these people were sensible, maybe they could still survive, but these people are too loyal to Han Sui. As a result, many people died on the battlefield.

After cleaning up those diehards among the captives who refused to serve him, Gongsun Xu disrupted all the captive troops and reorganized them, and then sent his cronies to serve as grassroots officers in the captive army. Control the captive army.

There is food to eat, military pay, and a chance to be promoted.This is the pursuit of a man born in a bitter cold place, and Gongsun Xu grasped this very well.He has already made a promise to all the captive troops, as long as they can make meritorious service on the battlefield, all of them will be rewarded accordingly.

This time, General Gongsun Xu led them to attack those Qiang tribes, and the captive army had a chance to prove themselves.

Li Ru commanded the troops of the headquarters to resist the attack of 4 Qiang horses. After Hua Xiong rushed back to the tribe here, the situation has begun to change.Li Ru could have defeated the enemy with his own troops, but from the beginning he only defended, in order to wait for Gongsun Xu to lead the army back.

"Military division, the final general is willing to lead the troops to attack." In the big tent, Hua Xiong was pleading for orders from Li Ru, and he said solemnly: "Tomorrow I will choose [-] elite detours to attack the enemy's rear, and only the military division will contain the enemy for me. Just before the army."

Li Ru looked up at Hua Xiong, then lowered his head and said, "Is there any better suggestion? For example, is there any strategy of surrendering without fighting, or whether you can avoid losses?" One soldier and one general will defeat the enemy."

"This, isn't this too difficult." Hua Xiong replied: "The general will not be able to do it."

"Hehe, Hua Xiong, sometimes don't stare too much in front of your eyes." Li Ru shook his head and smiled, "It's not that your strategy is bad, but you should know that if I restrain the main force of the enemy army, I will definitely lose a lot of money." With few soldiers and horses, if you rely on [-] elites to attack the enemy's rear, if the enemy finds out, it is very likely that you will fall into a tight siege, and the loss will definitely not be small.

Even if you were not seen through, you successfully attacked the enemy's rear, but you only have 1 people. How much do you think you will have left of your 1 horses after the war is over?Also, Hua Xiong, don’t you think it’s a great achievement for defeating 4 enemy troops? "

"Master, I don't know what the military advisor means, so I ask the military advisor to explain it clearly." Hua Xiong cupped his hands and said, "The military advisor seems to have something in his words."

"Hehe, you don't know how to figure out people's hearts." Li Ru said with a smile: "Such credit is beyond what you and I can take. The lord is coming soon. With the lord here, why worry about thieves not being broken. Besides, now The northern border is in danger, and the lord protrudes from the depths of the grassland, what do you think the lord needs most now?"

"What is it?" Hua Xiong asked, "Soldiers, money and food? Or what?"

"Hmph, an irresistible trend." Li Ru sneered and said, "A few months ago, my lord fell into the grassland, and a few months later, my lord will rise with an irresistible force. If all the horses are blocked by Han Sui, Han Sui's army will be broken and his generals will be sent down.

If the Qiang people block it, the Qiang people will be defeated, and they will take the Qiang people's cattle, sheep and horses as marching materials, and drive the Qiang people's warriors as the vanguard to fight on the battlefield, understand?What we should do now is not only to remove all obstacles for the lord, but also to create such an invincible situation for the lord. "

"Well, I understand what the military master said." Hua Xiong nodded and said: "No wonder, no wonder the lord said early in the morning that you, the military master, can solve this problem by yourself. It turns out that there are deep-seated reasons for you to retain your strength and focus on defense. , I will understand at the end.

The northern border is in critical condition. Hundreds of thousands of Xiongnu and Xianbei cavalry are besieging the defense line of the northern border. My lord wants to sweep across the grassland with overwhelming force, so that the people of the world can know that the grassland coalition forces will not be my lord's opponent.Even the enemy himself would be terrified, hahaha, the general understands, the military advisor, the general knows what to do. "

"Then Yan Xing, since he has already served the lord, let him do something." Li Ru nodded and said: "Tomorrow you can lead your troops to resist for a while. If the Qiang soldiers and horses attack aggressively, just focus on defense. Leading the army into the formation, this Yan Xing must be a good player when charging into the formation."

"The general understands." Hua Xiong said with a smile: "I will let everyone know that Yan Xing has completely devoted his allegiance to the lord."

"You can figure it out yourself, this is also your chance." Li Ru turned and stared at the map and said with a smile: "At most three or four days, the lord will lead the arrival, and it is still a question whether the Qiang soldiers and horses can resist it at that time, hehe , Hua Xiong, you have made money this time, these few battles are enough for you to earn credit."

Two days later, the camp of Li Ru's tribe was still intact. With Li Ru offering advice and a brave general like Hua Xiong commanding troops, plus the fact that the Qiang's troops were not much more than Li Ru's, the [-] Qiang cavalry were stunned. There is nothing to do with Li Ru.

At this time, Gongsun Xu has led an army of [-] troops to reach the battlefield a hundred miles away, and one day he will be able to join the battle circle, and the Qiang soldiers and horses still don't know that their side is being calculated by the opponent. What I know is that if Gongsun Xu leads the army, I don't know if they still have the intention to stay here.

After daybreak, the Qiang soldiers and horses still launched an attack, because they attacked fiercely these days, and the blow they dealt to the opponent seemed not small, at least the opponent's defense line was always so precarious, although at critical moments Hua Xiong would always lead the army out for a while, The crisis was saved, but it also gave the Qiang soldiers a hint that the enemy army would not last long.

The two armies were exhausted from the fierce battle until noon, especially the Qiang soldiers and horses. As the attacking side, they were more physically exhausted. Hua Xiong still adopted Li Ru's strategy, showing the enemy weak, but not being defeated by the enemy. The army broke through.

This is like fishing. It always makes you see the hope of success, but it always takes away the hope at the most critical time, so you have to keep working hard, even if you are exhausted now.

The two armies fought fiercely for another hour, and the Qiang soldiers and horses were indeed fierce. They still refused to rest or retreat. Hua Xiong has personally led the troops to charge four times today, that is to say, the Qiang army has four For the second time, he almost broke through his defense.

When the two sides were fighting to the death, a group of cavalry came running from behind the Qiang soldiers and horses. It seemed that the number was only about two to 3000, and it looked like a rout.

"What's going on?" Several leaders of the Qiang army gathered together and asked, "Where did the soldiers and horses come from? Why do they look like our own?"

"Leader, leader..." Many cavalrymen shouted to their leader while running, and they shouted at the top of their voices: "Leader, it's not good, the camp is about to be breached, it's not good, the camp... ,"

"Nonsense, isn't there [-] defenders in the camp? How could it be breached?" A leader grabbed a person and shouted: "Then why don't you resist, what's going on now, tell me quickly."

"The enemy's more than 4 cavalry came from the west." The man replied, "They launched an attack from all sides of the camp at once, and the brothers couldn't resist it. It took the enemy less than half an hour to break through our camp. Defense, we,,,,,,"

"What, [-] cavalry, how is this possible?" Several other leaders were also surprised: "The enemy's soldiers and horses are all trapped in the camp by us. Where did they get [-] soldiers and horses? Are you afraid of being condemned?" , so you made up this lie?"

"That's not true, leader, it's true." The cavalryman didn't know how to explain it, he knew what he knew: "The enemy army is indeed no less than [-] troops, and all of them are extremely brave. By the way, the banner of the leading general has the word Gongsun written on it."

"Gongsun?" Everyone wondered: "Could it be the Northern Army? That's not right. The Northern Army is trapped now. Whether they can hold their own territory is a problem. How could 4 people appear here? This is,,,,,,"

Just when these Qiang chiefs were still unable to guess the identity of each other, horns sounded from the periphery of the battlefield, and [-] cavalry appeared behind the Qiang army.At this time, horns sounded in the front camp, as if the two sides had negotiated, and at the same time they launched a pincer attack on the Qiang army.

"Gongsun Xu of Northern Xinjiang is here." Gongsun Xu took the lead and shouted: "The thief will die..."

Dian Wei led the Huben army to guard Gongsun Xu, followed by countless cavalry, all of them brandishing their soldiers and horses and rushing towards the rear of the Qiang soldiers and horses.

"No, it's Gongsun Xu." One of the leaders said, "Express, maybe you can save your life if you leave now. Get out quickly."

The 3-strong Qiang army did not resist when they fell into such a predicament. They have no camp now. If they don't break through now, they will not be able to leave after dark. Besides, Gongsun Xu The name is too loud, and the shock to them is too great.

With Gongsun Xu personally leading the army, they really didn't have much courage to resist.

"Don't kill those who surrender, don't kill those who resist..." The slogan of surrender sounded, and Gongsun Xu knew the importance of disintegrating the fighting spirit of the enemy. If he could really recruit these Qiang soldiers, it would be great.

However, these Qiang troops are not stupid. They actually have a lot of people on their side. The reason why they want to retreat is because they don't want to fight recklessly. They have more than 3 horsemen. If they want to leave, Gongsun Xu really can't stay here for the time being.

Seeing that there was no hope of surrender, Gongsun Xu had no choice but to order to hunt down and kill all the Qiang soldiers and horses.
