Zhang Fei frowned. He didn't like to put his hopes on others, but Zhuge Liang's words made sense. Their strength was far from the opponents of the Northern Huns.
"From now on, there is no need to dodge. Kill all the Huns we encounter. I think the Huns will soon notice us behind them." Zhuge Liang said with a cold face.
[General Zhang, things are not that simple. The strength of the Northern Huns is now growing like a snowball. Killing Zahu alone will not damage the foundation of the Northern Huns, and killing Zahu alone will not be able to test it at all. The true strength of the Northern Huns was revealed. ¡¿Zhuge Liang thought silently as he watched Zhang Fei wave his snake spear angrily.
The so-called Northern Xiongnu army currently gathered at Jicheng is no less than 100,000, but how many of the real Northern Xiongnu control men are there? The number passed by Guo Tu before his death was no more than 30,000, but if the Northern Xiongnu only had this few The military strength is absolutely impossible.
Therefore, Zhuge Liang guessed that most of the Northern Huns should still be recruiting the grassland tribes outside the pass to increase their own strength. Zhuge Liang viewed this as an opportunity to test the strength of the Northern Huns.
Whether they are acting as bait or the Bingzhou Army that may attack at any time, there is absolutely no way they can come into contact with the real Northern Huns controllers in the first place.
The reason is very simple. It is absolutely impossible for the Northern Huns to maintain a population of several million. As a Chanyu, as long as he is not stupid, it is absolutely impossible to consume the sparse members of his tribe as cannon fodder. So the real people of the Northern Huns mainly do The purpose is to break the deadlock when the battle situation is deadlocked.
Therefore, Zhuge Liang quickly guessed that once they appeared behind the Northern Huns were exposed, the ones attracted would definitely not be the real Northern Huns. The Northern Huns who also encountered the sudden thrust of Bingzhou wolf cavalry and surrounded Jicheng would definitely not be the real Northern Huns. Huns.
Zhuge Liang can understand these things by thinking about it from the perspective of the Shanyu of the Northern Huns. Since the battlefield is at the foot of Jicheng, Zhuge Liang can almost be sure that whether Yuan Tanle is happy or not, Shenpei will choose to attack.
No matter whether the Northern Huns show a stronger strength than Yuan's army after breaking through the barrier, or the Northern Huns show unimaginable qualities, the next battle of Shenpai will give a very clear answer to the Bingzhou Army and Liu Bei's army.
After Zhang Fei let go, the northern Xiongnu rear army quickly received the news that there might be enemies in the rear, and then passed it on to the Chinese army.
Xu Bucheng was sitting in the main seat in the Chinese army's tent. After the **** escaped, he flew back to the grassland alone and told Hu Yanchu what he saw and heard. Hu Yanchu then allowed Xu Bucheng to implement the plan. , 20,000 northern Huns controlled strings, and more than 80,000 barbarians of all kinds went south.
As for Hu Yanchu, Qiu Linbei and others are still working hard to unite the Hu people outside the pass. They need enough cannon fodder.
I won¡¯t go into details about what happened after that. Xu Bucheng chased Shen Pei and Zhang Zha and captured Changping. After obtaining food supplies, his military formation became more prudent, suppressing the seriously injured Zhang Zha, and the sometimes unconscious Shen Pei. He continued until he surrounded Jicheng.
Unlike when he was a general in the Xianbei army, Xu Bucheng was much more stable as a commander this time, and carefully assigned tribesmen to fight. Until now, only more than 300 of the more than 20,000 Northern Xiongnu commanders have been killed in battle.
"Sure enough, it's better to go back to our hometown. Our people are all on the prairie. If you look around, you can find a bunch of subordinates." Hou Tingtang said with a smile while eating mutton.
"Indeed." Xu Bucheng said calmly and did not pick up on the words of Marquis Luutan. He was considered a supporter of Hu Yanchu. Marquis Luutan was considered a more radical revenge faction and always wanted to go back to the east to get back what belonged to them. grassland.
"As the sun chases the king, our rear army found traces of a large group of Han troops." At this time, a Qian Chang wearing leather armor entered the tent and saluted Xubucheng.
"Han Army? Did our headquarters suffer any losses?" Xu Bucheng asked.
"There are four warriors of our clan who went to the rear to lead the outside and have not returned yet." Qian Chang lowered his head and said, "It is suspected that the Kunlun God has returned."
"You lead your thousand men, and then lead 10,000 outsiders, to explore the rear, with the main focus being the headquarters. When necessary, you can abandon the outsiders to ensure the safety of the headquarters." Xu Bocheng thought for a moment and said.
Qian Chang then withdrew. At this time, Marquis Luoting sneered and said, "When did we, the descendants of Kunlun God, become so afraid of fighting? Not only did we give 10,000 external soldiers and horses, but also a thousand warriors of our own clan, You don¡¯t want to kill the enemy, you just want to ensure the safety of your headquarters!¡±
"The fact that you said this after he left doesn't mean that you already understand our predicament?" Xu Bocheng glanced at Marquis Luoting and said, "If you have this free time, why not go see the big city opposite? When can I get it?¡±
??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????]It really couldn't be worse. There is nothing more miserable than not even having any clan members.
After watching Marquis Luoting leave, Xu Bucheng began to think about what Shanyu Huyanchu told him when he led his troops south, "If you can fight, fight. We and the Han Dynasty are blood feuds. When the two sides meet, they will definitely fight to the death. I will fight to the death." My guards are temporarily handed over to your command to ensure the safety of the people as much as possible. We can no longer bear too much loss. "
"Hey, the Han Dynasty wants to kill us?" Xu Bocheng sneered, "We want to kill you too!"
In Jicheng, Shen Pei, who was unconscious and awake all the way to Jicheng, finally woke up under the treatment of doctors. Yuan Tan immediately came to express condolences to Shen Pei with gifts. Of course, he was mentally prepared. All aspects of mental preparation.
"Zhengnan, you finally woke up." Yuan Tan's expression changed a lot after not seeing him for several days, and he was obviously excited when he saw Shen Pei wake up.
"You have failed your lord's expectations" Shen Pei looked at Yuan Tan who was holding out his hand to support him, his eyes were slightly hollow. Yuan Tan understood that at this moment Shen Pei was not looking at himself, but at the shadow of Yuan Shao on his body.
"Zhengnan has done a good job, but our enemy is too strong." Yuan Tan also looked away at this time. If he had made a note of it before, but now that the army is approaching the city, Yuan Tan has become much more enlightened. This is probably This is also where Yuan Tan resembles his father the most.
"I misjudged the fighting power of the Northern Huns." Shen Pei's eyes gradually turned around, and he coughed continuously and said, "I overestimated myself. The Northern Huns are really strong. The Huns who defeated us were the ones who were disguised as Xianbei was the one who unlocked the legion talent. Unfortunately, I didn¡¯t take the chance to kill him.¡±
"Zhengnan, you rest first, we can talk about these things later." Yuan Tan looked at Shen Pei, who had suddenly aged by more than ten years, with red eyes.
"My lord, I hid Junyi's matter from you, please don't punish him." Shen Pei remembered Zhang Zha who came back together and explained while lying down. Zhang Zha is an indispensable force for the current situation. .
