Great Wei Overlord

Chapter 12 The army gathers
Chapter 012

Ran Ming drew Takahashi's saddle and stirrup on the ground with the scabbard, and asked, "Can this thing be made?"

As expected of an excellent carpenter, Wei Meng looked at it for a while and said, "General, this is actually not too difficult. This little thing can be made in half an hour!"

"Very good!" Ran Ming said: "Now the army is leaving, and you have to go with the army, so you don't have to do it for the time being. Tonight, when we camp, you can do it overnight!"

Ran Feng is Ran Min's adopted son, who has deep knowledge in both riding and foot combat. When he saw the figure drawn by Ran Ming, he guessed the purpose. His eyes lit up, and he looked at Ran Ming. Be different!With such a Takahashi saddle and stirrup, the cavalry of the Wei army can increase the combat effectiveness by at least [-]%. Don't underestimate this [-]%, it is enough to easily change the outcome of a battle!

Ran Ming said again: "Remember, this matter must be kept secret. If it leaks out, be careful with your head!"

"The little one understands, the little one understands!"

Ran Ming gestured to Jing Zhan, and Jing Zhan nodded in satisfaction. Before he knew it, two of Ran Ming's guards were missing, and the two quietly followed Wei Meng to the rear army!
At the same time, a tall and mighty young general sits on the head of the Xianbei army camp's commander-in-chief. He is Murong Ke, the most powerful general in the Yan Kingdom.Murong Ke made great achievements in the battle in Yan State, and he looked down upon him.Murong Ke is young and honest, deep and magnanimous, eight feet and seven inches in length, with a handsome appearance and great fortitude.He wears a beast-headed tattoo on his head, a tiger-skin quiver slung across his shoulders, a dazzling Mingguang armor, animal-headed shoulder guards, and a rhinoceros belt around his waist.It is covered with a Ruyi tiger-headed brocade battle robe.

At this time, Murong Ke was not only not happy at all, but it was cloudy and cloudy. He and the Wei army stationed in Anxi camped [-] li away from each other. The two sides have confronted each other for more than ten days, and there has been no major war between the two sides.

Originally, Yan State wanted to take advantage of Ran Min's rebellion, defeat Ran Min in one fell swoop, and occupy Wei State.But at this time, he couldn't really make up his mind.

Ran Min's name is actually too resounding. Three years ago, Zhu Huxiong dominated the Central Plains, and Ran Min beat Hu Xiong with a piece of paper, killing corpses all over the field, the Huns died, and the Jie people also survived in name only.

On the strategy "Sai Wuhou" Li Nong was defeated, and on the military strategy "the enemy of ten thousand people" Sun Fudu was awarded the head.Facing such a powerful character who dare not cry at night, even if it is the No.1 general in the world, Murong Ke who attacked Xuantu at the age of 14, even though he only led [-] Xianbei cavalry at the beginning, he dared to attack Shile with [-] Jieqi , and achieved a huge record of beheading [-] people. Although he pacified Liaodong, pacified Goguryeo, defeated Fuyu, and destroyed the Ministry of Yuwen, he was invincible, but he did not dare to underestimate Wei, which has only [-] troops and only one capital.

A group of tigers led by a sheep is not terrible, but a group of sheep led by a tiger is also afraid of wolves!
Ran Min is not only a fierce tiger, but the [-] elites he leads are the elites of hundreds of battles who have been killed from the mountain of corpses and the sea of ​​blood.

In the first year of Yongxing, the Han cavalry led by [-] Ran Min drove more than [-] Xiongnu cavalry for hundreds of miles, beheading [-] cavalry.Although he has a more outstanding record than Ran Min, Murong Ke knows that the Han cavalry and his Xianbei cavalry are not comparable at all. Han cavalry are actually infantry on horseback!

Whenever Murong Ke thinks of Ran Min at night, he will think of the Battle of Lingshui, that is, Ran Min, those Jie cavalry who had no intention of fighting when they saw the Xianbei cavalry, but fought more with less, and defeated 20 Xianbei cavalry Great defeat, Xianbei suffered a terrible defeat in that battle, losing 7 horses, beheaded or captured alive.

Right now, when Ran Min is mentioned in all the ministries of Xianbei, no one will change their colors!
With such an opponent, Murong Ke has no confidence at all!
Just then, a young man dressed as a scribe walked in!Ten steps away from Murong Ke, he said with a happy face: "The general is overjoyed. Overjoyed!"

The person who came was none other than Gao Kai, the son of Gao Xu, the former general of Yan Guangwu!Gao Xu (appeared in the original blood blade) is a Han from Youzhou, and served as the former emperor of Yan, Murong Hao.It is said that this man is wise and resourceful, and he has made great contributions to the establishment of Yan State by Murong Hao.And his son Gao Kai inherited his resourcefulness and became Murong Ke's soldier!

"Why does this king like it?" Murong Ke (who was named the king of Taiyuan at this time).

Gao Kai clasped his fists and said: "The subordinates have found out that the Wei army is short of food. Now the food and grass are not enough for the army for five days. I think that Ran Min will retreat soon! Our army can take the opportunity to follow and chase, and we will surely gain something!"

"It's true!"

"The subordinates dare to guarantee their heads!"

"Hehe!" Murong Ke looked up to the sky and laughed loudly, "God really helped me, Dayan!"

After finishing speaking, Murong Ke's face turned cold, and he ordered: "Call up, gather generals!"

The unique horn horn of the Xianbei people sounded immediately, which was the signal for the army to gather.The Han people gather generals with drums, while the Yan army gathers generals with horn blowing!
In a short time, all the generals of the Yan army arrived!
Among them were the generals of Guangwei, Murong Daoming, the governor of the forward, Murong Daoming, the general of the left, the general of Yangwei, Xian Yuliang, the governor of the forward, the general of Jianfeng, Murongba (also known as Murongchui), the governor of the forward, Murongde, and the general of Yokono, Shentu.蠮螉 (this character is unknown to Cheng Zhi, it was copied from the data), General Xiangwei Afuyu Hou Niyu, General Zhechong Bulugen, General Lifeng Qi Fujin Chenglugui (Xianbei is "hero ", meaning "warrior"), Huya General Puhouru, Guangye General Weichiqifen (Jiefen means "herb" in the Huns) and other dozens of generals, with a total force of more than 14 elite light and heavy cavalry. There will be tens of thousands of reinforcements led by King Yan in the future!

At this time, Murong Ke changed from his previous decadence, and rushed down to the generals of the Yan army in high spirits: "My big Yan has been a country for decades, and I have been squatting in the bitter cold of Liaodong. Now, can the country of Yan enter the Central Plains? Can it drink? Ma Huanghe, it depends on whether we can win this battle!"

"Defeat Ran Min Xiaoer, Yan Wan wins!"

Looking at the generals with high morale, Murong Ke nodded with satisfaction, "Yes, the wise man wins when the two armies face each other, and the brave man wins when they meet on a narrow road! Ran Min's son is only a man, how can he enjoy the prosperous area of ​​Jizhou! Ran Min's son is overconfident , let him come and go today!"

"The Yan army is victorious!"

Murong Ke said: "He Xiaolou listens to the order!"

"The minister will be here!"

"Let your three thousand cavalry fight the Wei army for the first time!"

"The minister will obey!"

From Xiaoguan to the battle dust, Hehuang cuts off the foreign spring.Han'er speaks Hu'er's language as best as he can, but scolds the Han people at the top of the city.This is a poem "Feelings in Hehuang" written by Sikong Tu, a poet of the Tang Dynasty.However, this poem can just reflect Ran Min's state of mind at this time!Originally, Ran Min and Li Nong were one of the few Han generals in Later Zhao.

In [-] A.D., before Ran Min rebelled against Hou Zhao, Shi Cheng, the leader of the Central Committee, Shi Qi, the servant of the Central Committee, Sun Fudu, the general of Longxiang, and Shi Hui, the former governor of Hedong, planned to kill Ran Min and Li Nong.It was Ran Min who stepped forward to kill the invincible Sun Fudu, and defeated Shi Cheng, Shi Qi, Shi Hui and others.At that time, Ran Min saw that Li Nong had higher prestige in the begging army of the Han family than himself, so he graciously gave up the throne to Li Nong, but Li Nong, as the son of the Han family, had his heart for the Shi family of the Jie family.

Refugees are not accepted.In the end, Ran Min established the State of Wei, and named Li Nong the King of Qi, and made him the king of Qi. The king, but the one for Li Nong is the prince!
In April of the first year of Yongxing, Shi Dai, the last princess of the Later Zhao Dynasty, was led by Shi Kun, the king of Ruyin, and 30 soldiers attacked Wei. Yecheng Gate, dedicate Yecheng to Shi Da!You must know that Ran Min's order to kill Hu has been implemented for more than three months, and the soldiers of the Wei army are covered with the blood of Zhu Hu. If Yecheng falls, the 30 soldiers and civilians in the city will definitely be killed.However, Li Nong trapped [-] Han soldiers and civilians for his own selfish desires.In the end Ran Min had to kill Li Nong and his three sons.In this way, the begging soldiers who didn't know the truth were separated overnight because of Ran Min's killing of Li Nong!
The Wei State established by Ran Min, in its strong and prosperous period, covered Taihang Mountain in the northwest, Hangu Pass in the west, Huaihe River in the south, and the Yellow River in the later period, Mount Tai in the east, Bohai in the northeast, and Zhongshan in the north across Xiangguo in the early stage. , the Bohai Sea area, and later occupied the northern boundary of Xiangguo and retreated to the Changshan area.With nearly 20 elite soldiers, there are like clouds of fierce generals.

In today's Great Wei, there are only 20 generals Jiang cadres in Yecheng (now the ruins of Yecheng [-] kilometers southwest of Linzhang County, Handan City, Hebei) and Ran Min's more than [-] field soldiers.Most of the rest of the Ranwei officials changed their banners.Every time he thought of this, Ran Min couldn't help feeling sad and indignant.As a Han, but willing to serve as Hu Nu envoy, Ran Min felt endless grief and indignation towards those Han who bowed their knees!Especially Li Nong, thinking of him, Ran Min wanted to tear him into pieces!
In history, most of Wei's officials and generals surrendered to the Jin Dynasty, and Ran Min just let it go and never took revenge.But Liu Xian betrayed Ran Min, and Ran Min immediately wiped out him with his troops.From this point, it can be seen that Ran Min is unwilling to fight a civil war. It is quite easy to pacify Qingzhou, Yanzhou, and Luozhou, which were surrendered to Jin. There was no time for rescue.

Ran Min sat alone in the tent, with complicated thoughts. As a general who grew up from a small soldier in the army, Ran Min couldn't see through the problems that Zhang Wen, Dong Run and others saw.But if he retreats, where can he retreat?There is only one capital city left in Wei State.If he retreats, what should the Han people in the north do?If there is nothing that cannot be violated, it is either great wisdom or great foolishness, and Ran Min is the former!
Liu Qun came to Ran Min with a gloomy expression and said, "Your Majesty, something is wrong! Our army has only five days of food left. This matter is no small matter. If the food shortage problem cannot be alleviated as soon as possible, not only will the morale of the army be shaken, It is more likely to attract the Yan army to attack, and then the situation will be even more troublesome."
