The Rise of the Song People of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1004
After the two armies of Gaoping City in Lingzhou of the Song Dynasty went to the Western Regions, Lu Heng, the emperor of the Song Dynasty, withdrew from the heroic march of the army at the beginning, but slowly changed to worry.

Although there are many marshals Zhuge Liang, Du Gao, Di Qing, Lu Xun, and Yue Fei under his command, the five of them are absolutely outstanding, but what if?
At that time, Lu Heng spent every day in a state of hesitation. The first time he woke up, he asked Qin Han and Shi Qian if they had any latest news from the front line.

This kind of hesitation slowly reached its peak within a month. That month's Western Expedition did not go well. Zhuge Liang was blocked outside the Tianmen Formation, while Lu Xun's army encountered Yelu Abaoji's personal attack on the grassland of Hunxie Mountain. .

The marching speed of Lu Xun's army was less than [-] miles a day, which made Lu Heng wonder for a moment whether his decision was wrong, and whether he should not attack Liao so early?

A total of more than 70 troops is an astronomical figure for today's Song Dynasty, not to mention that these two legions are the foundation of the current Song Dynasty.

Once these soldiers and horses are lost, all previous efforts may be in vain, and his Song Dynasty may turn from prosperity to decline. Lu Heng does not want to be the second Fu Jian.

Fortunately, Zhuge Liang's army can at least not lose in the Tianmen Formation, if it can't, they will withdraw and return to Yumen Pass. On the contrary, Lu Xun's army is the most worrying.

Now that Lu Heng finally knew the pressure of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty at that time, betting on the grassland was like a gamble. Lu Heng felt that he hadn't thought too comprehensively, or that the wind has been so smooth recently that he was a little drifting.

The grassland is not so easy to conquer. Just one state beat the Xianbei people to pieces. Sweeping across the grassland is a cool story but not reality. The reality is that more than 30 troops came out of the grassland and were pinned down by Yelu Abaoji's [-] cavalry.

Although the Hetao is a grassland terrain, it is not a real grassland. The Hetao has the iconic Yellow River as the guide, and the Great Wall is less than a hundred miles away, but the vast grassland is not!Without a target, and with no city defense measures at all, it was only slightly better for the natives to walk onto the grassland than to enter the desert.

During this period of time, the facts made Lu Heng firm up his thoughts again, this time was the last time!You can't rush to the grassland like this, and you will never send troops to the grassland on a large scale before building a city on the grassland!

But as an emperor, Lu Heng could not put his anxiety on his face. Although Yu Yunwen, Ding Wei, Zhao Ding, Zhang Zhao, Zhang Hong, Wang Anshi and others around him who were not heroes all noticed Lu Heng's anxiety, they could only wait. Lu Lingji even more It's very distressing.

Lu Heng didn't know that he was dying of anxiety, but Lu Xun, who was far away on the grassland, was calm and calm, and Zimo Ayi even accompanied him, watching the grassland scenery without any anxiety.

It seemed that it was Yelu Abaoji, not Lu Xun, who was constrained to march only twenty miles a day.

"Marshal! Marshal! Those bastards from the Liao people are attacking again!" Lao Niu opened Lu Xun's tent with a loud voice.

"It's coming again? This time it's Ke Bineng and Bu Dugen who are attacking! It's your turn, don't go too deep!"

Lu Xun ignored the loud old cow, but looked at the other two generals.

"Don't worry, Marshal, it's not the first time! We'll go back as soon as we go!" Bu Dugen said and left the village with Ke Bineng.

If Lu Heng were here, he would find that there were only Wu Li, Qubei, and Qiu Qiongying from the Xiongnu camp, Wei Mingling Gong, Hunwei Shanyu, Wei Minglangyu from the Dangxiang camp, Fang Mao, and some generals of the Fang Qifo Army. , and there are Bu Dugen and Ke Bineng who have just stepped out of the big tent, and Lao Niu who has just entered the big tent.

As Bu Dugen and Ke Bineng left the camp, a cavalry group soon came out of the camp and began to have a fight with the Yelu Abaoji Army that Lao Niu said.

Not long after, Lao Niu came back again, and Wei Mingling Gong, Hunwei Shanyu, and Wei Minglangyu left the camp in command.

Lu Xun didn't know how many times he was "forced to stop camping" and how many times he was asked to take turns to fight in the Dangxiang camp, Xiongnu camp, and Xianbei camp.

Is there something missing?No, is it missing too much?
Lu Xun was surrounded by only Fang Maung, Fang Qifo, Lao Niu's Panlong Forbidden Army, Dangxiang Camp, Xiongnu Camp, and Xianbei Camp.

Where did Yue Fei go?Where did the Cao family generals Cao Bin, Shi Bao, Li Jilong, and Murong Yanzhao go?
Lu Xun looked to the west and muttered to himself: "Pengju should have arrived in Pulei!"

That's right, Lu Xun looked thousands of miles to the west. The place Lu Xun called Pu Lei was also the place Yelu Abaoji said was the home of Che Shi!
It is even the place where Brother Yeluxiu and Yelu Antuan are stationed now, but now it is surrounded by hundreds of thousands of legions, and even a single scout cannot escape.

And this 10,000+ army is Yue Fei who should be with Lu Xun, beside Shi Bao, Li Jilong, Murong Yanzhao, and Cao Bin, but Gan Ning and Hu Yanzan are not here.

Pulei is about a hundred miles northwest of Hami in later generations. At this time, Pulei Sea (that is, Balikun Lake) has not shrunk due to the harsh environment and changes, and this place is already within the scope of Tianshan Mountains!
Therefore, Gan Ning's Jinfan cavalry and Huyanzan's Chixin cavalry were not here, but were lying in ambush on the only way to the grassland from the Tianshan Mountains.

What Yue Fei was facing now was Pu Lei, guarded by Brother Yeluxiu. Although he escaped from Yelu Abaoji's entanglement by Lu Xun's tricks, but because of this, he didn't bring enough siege equipment, so he was traveling lightly.

Therefore, Pu Leiyue Fei fought for three days and still failed to defeat him. Now, several army commanders gathered together to discuss that they must win this place.

What?Lu Xun was attacked by Yelu Abaoji until now, how did Yue Fei attack Pulei from under the nose of Yelu Abaoji?Why didn't Lu Heng, the emperor of the Song Dynasty, know about this?
Lu Xun's army was just a decoy. Although there were indeed a lot of soldiers and horses, they only accounted for [-]%. They were used to march grandiosely to attract Yelu Abaoji's firepower. Why didn't this king restrain Lu Xun and be restrained by Lu Xun?

As for how Yue Fei came to Pulei Sea?
From the very beginning, Lu Xun was "Ming repaired the plank road and darkened Chen Cang". Yue Fei's army set off from the surrendered city five days later than Lu Xun. When Yelu Abaoji found Lu Xun, the Ming army cooperated with many auxiliary soldiers to attract the opponent. Notice.

The Jingsai Army, Xiongnu, Dangxiang, Xianbei, Chixinying, and Jinfanqi are all cavalry, and many legions are equipped with one horse, two horses or even three horses, but now the few cavalry around Lu Xun have only one horse.

That is to hand over most of the war horses to Yue Fei, and let the legion harass the army from the back to the Yinshan Mountains to the west, through Zhangye County and run westward along the edge of the desert, breaking through the eyes of Yelu Abaoji's scouts.

Most of Yelu Abaoji's attention was attracted by Lu Xun. The vast grassland and desert could not be completely blocked. In this way, Yue Fei bypassed the main force of the Liao army and reached Pulei City.
