The first general of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 152
"Withdraw! Quickly withdraw! Follow me!"

Yu Fuluo is worthy of being the son of Qiangqu. Although he was facing a desperate situation, he was still decisive when he still had the strength to fight, and immediately led a group of people to kill.

It's just that Yu Fuluo didn't care about Qiang Qu at this time, and only wanted to protect his own life.

Yu Fuluo retreated like this, although the Huns were brave by nature, but at this time, no Huns were willing to die willingly, and they all fled in all directions.

In fact, Wei Tao's army was not that big. It was the remaining thousands of people led by Zhou Yu who appeared behind the Xiongnu.

Originally, this was a means to prevent Qiang Qu from escaping, but now it has become a trick to catch a turtle in a jar. Obviously Zhou Yu has discovered Yu Fuluo's actions and took advantage of it.

"Qiang Qu, you wait for the Huns to be barbaric enough. To escape for themselves, they don't even want their father. It's really ridiculous, hahahaha..."

Seeing Yu Fuluo running away desperately, Wei Tao laughed and said.

Although Na Qiang Qu also knew the rules of the Huns, and his reason could understand why, but after realizing that Yu Fuluo fled directly regardless of himself, he couldn't help feeling a kind of sadness in his heart, and the weapon in his hand was even more relaxed, and it became more and more inappropriate. Wei Tao's opponent.

"Go!"

Seeing that Qiang Qu's heart was shaken, Wei Tao shouted suddenly, and the halberd in his hand struck straight in like lightning, breaking through Qiang Qu's protection in one fell swoop and hitting his wrist with a heavy blow.

"what!"

With a scream, Qiang Qu fell off his horse immediately, and then countless soldiers stepped forward and struck him with swords on his neck, taking Qiang Qu as a prisoner.

It was just that Wei Tao kept his hand and just knocked Qiang Qu off the horse. Even so, he was seriously injured and fell off the horse, which made Qiang Qu dizzy directly.

"Clean up the camp and push all the captives back!"

No matter how Wei Tao gave an order, it was naturally arranged by someone. With Zhou Yu around, Wei Tao was very relieved.

Looking at the fleeing figure of Yu Fuluo from a distance, Wei Tao suddenly swung the halberd in his hand, very annoyed!
This is the second time. Once the Huns were defeated, they fled with the speed of their horses. Even if Wei Tao had been prepared, he could not be stopped when he was charged by the cavalry, allowing the Huns to escape safely. retreat.

Wei Tao only felt waves of anger in his heart. For many years, although the Han people were strong and powerful, they always suffered from alien races in the border areas.

Even if it was Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty who was so talented, Wei Qing and Huo Qubing drove the Huns to the north and kept the frontiers safe, but within a hundred years, the troubles of the Huns reappeared in the frontiers.

Among them, it is true that the Han Dynasty has a vast territory, no matter how far away it is, it is beyond the reach of the whip, but it is also the reason why the infantry cannot catch up with the cavalry, and as long as the Huns want to escape, they will never be able to destroy their foundation.

"Brother, are you worried about the Huns' cavalry?"

It has to be said that Zhou Yu did have a bit of ability to read people's hearts. Seeing Wei Tao alone looking at the trace of Yu Fuluo's departure, he knew it very well in his heart, and immediately went to Wei Tao's side to speak.

"The Huns cavalry come and go without a trace. If something goes wrong, they will flee. Now this is still a direct confrontation with our army, and I have repeatedly plotted it. Even so, it is easy to retreat. If we want to drive north , When confronting the Xiongnu on the vast grassland, they must be attacked back and forth, causing heavy casualties. The logistics are long and it is not easy to transport, and it is difficult to find the various Xiongnu tribes on the grassland without knowing the direction, even if they are eating in the enemy's capital It's very difficult."

"Gongjin should know my heart!"

Wei Tao couldn't help sighing, although Zhou Yu didn't necessarily know about "Guerrilla Warfare", but he had already expressed the essence of what he said.

"This is a big man's trouble, and Yu can't help it for a while, but the first thing is to stop the Xiongnu's momentum."

Although Zhou Yu is a top strategist, he also has no good solution to the problem that has plagued the big man for 400 years. He can only persuade with a wry smile.

"Can we proceed now?"

The Xiongnu had tens of thousands of elites, so it was impossible to capture Qiang Qu alone if they wanted to split up.

"Yes, please ask my lord to persuade Qiang Qu."

With Zhou Yu's affirmation, Wei Tao ordered someone to bring Qiang Qu up soon after returning to the camp.

"Qiang Qu Shanyu, although you are also a Xiongnu Chanyu, how dare you order people to harass me? Don't forget that my majesty is majestic and inviolable. Anyone who offends me will be punished no matter how far away! Even you Qiang He is also my subordinate!"

Wei Tao's words were true. Although the Xiongnu were powerful, they were far inferior to the Han Dynasty. If the emperor of the Han Dynasty gave orders, even the Huns Shanyu would have to obey them.

In fact, during the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the imperial court was ready to order the Xiongnu to send troops to quell the rebellion, but it happened that Huangfusong, with the help of Wei Tao, set fire to the Yellow Turban Camp and successfully reversed the situation. go south.

Of course, this also made the Xiongnu see the weakness of the big man, and it was the idea that Qiang Qu was going south to plunder the big man.

"Humph!"

Although he was defeated by Wei Tao, Qiang Qu was still a bit stubborn and snorted coldly.

However, Qiang Qu did not refute Wei Tao's words, after all, it was the same in fact.

This time, Qiangqu intends to go south, and it is preparing to defeat the Han army, so as to get rid of the status of the Xiongnu under the Han people, and want to restore the situation that Han Wu was equal to or even stronger than the Han people before Han Wu.

It's a pity that Wei Tao's first battle shattered Qiang Qu's dream.

"That's all! I don't want you to wait for the barbarians to talk too much, but because you are also the head of the Xiongnu clan, this is to let you go back. I hope that after you go back, you will immediately dismiss all the tribes and let them return to their own land. If Otherwise, I will kill your family!"

Wei Tao said awe-inspiringly, all the momentum fell.

"You want to let me go?"

Hearing Wei Tao's words, even Qiang Qu couldn't believe it. The relationship between the two armies is already a life-and-death relationship. After finally capturing him, he still let him go?
"Give me a way out, I hope you can disperse the soldiers of the Xiongnu tribes, if not, I will never show mercy."

Wei Tao didn't say much about Qiang Qu, he just waved his hand casually and asked Qiang Qu to be taken down.

"Gongjin, that's all it needs to be? Don't you want to spread rumors among the Xiongnu?"

After Na Qiang Qu left, Wei Tao turned his head and looked at Zhou Yu, who was aside. This was Zhou Yu's plan, but it had to be said that this plan felt a little 'crude'.

"My lord, it is useless to plan against the heroes of the Central Plains like this. It is easy to be seen by others, but it is different to plan against the Huns like this. Whether you see it or not, someone will take the opportunity to make trouble. We just need to wait and see." Can."

Since Zhou Yu was so confident, Wei Tao naturally didn't ask any more questions.

As for what happened after Qiang Qu returned to the Xiongnu alone, Wei Tao naturally didn't know.

However, after two days, the entire army of the Huns pushed in, but the Huns who should have gathered 5 horses now only have [-] left, and it is obviously impossible for the Qiang Qu to give orders like before. Next, there is everything you can do.

What is even more surprising is that after the Xiongnu went south to Mayi, they did not dare to launch an offensive against Mayi immediately, but immediately set up camp, as if they were going to fight a protracted war with Wei Tao.

The reason why the Xiongnu was troubled by the big Han was that the cavalry was brave, and they came and went like the wind, invading constantly. If they really fought positional warfare and siege warfare, it would undoubtedly give up their greatest cavalry advantage.

Of course, what's even more surprising is that the Huns' camp seems to be divided into three parts. Although it's like everyone's horns, it's weird no matter how you look at it.

"Gongjin, isn't the Huns split? How could this be?"

Wei Tao's face was a little weird. Even if the Xiongnu had conflicts, it wasn't just provocation or success.

"My lord, this is not surprising. Although the Shanyu of the Xiongnu belongs to the Qiangqu, there are not no tribes in the Xiongnu tribe that can compare with it. The Marquis of Nasu Bugudu is the leader of the second largest tribe of the Xiongnu. Now that the strength of the Qiang Canal is weakened, it is natural to compete with it, as for the other small tribes, they are holding together and watching the battle, which is why the current situation has been formed."

Zhou Yu obviously knew the Xiongnu better, and said with a chuckle.

"Of course, my lord should not be ignored. Although the Xiongnu have disputes now, they can still unite as one when facing my big man. We have to be cautious when facing the Huns cavalry."

Maybe he was worried that Wei Tao was too optimistic, but Xun You reminded him from the side.

This time, Wei Tao attached great importance to the battle against the Huns, so many of his counselors and generals came together, which can be said to be well-equipped.

"Don't worry, Gongda, I will definitely pay attention."

Wei Tao was a man in two lifetimes, knowing that many people in history went crazy after winning, but in the end they turned victory into defeat. It's really sad, Wei Tao naturally won't get carried away easily.

"But what is the current battle like?"

"My lord, our army is still not as good as the Xiongnu in terms of strength alone, but our army has the upper hand in terms of situation alone. If I launch an offensive quickly at this time, I'm afraid it will make Qiangqu and Xubu If the Marquis of Gudu join forces, it will actually put our army at a disadvantage."

Xun You and Zhou Yu looked at each other, and finally Xun You spoke first.

"However, the Xiongnu will not allow us to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight like this. Whether it is Qiangqu or Naxubugu, the best way to win is undoubtedly to defeat our army. How can we allow our army to watch? "

Wei Tao nodded first and then said, when it comes to strategy, Wei Tao may not be as good as Xun You and Zhou Yu, but when it comes to fighting, he is definitely no less than anyone else, so when Xun You's voice fell, Wei Tao was aware of it. inappropriate.

"Gongjin, Gongda, are you planning something?"
