Han counter current

"This Liao is indeed difficult to deal with. He led [-] troops across the river to set up camp, and left [-] troops to defend on the other side of the river. In this way, no matter whether our army crosses the river or not, we are at a disadvantage."

Bu Dugen was also very troubled. It turned out that although Zhang Liao only left [-] elite soldiers on the opposite side, he sent people to plant banners and recruited many old and weak women and children to pretend to be soldiers in the camp on the other side of the river.

Coupled with the defeat of the three thousand-man teams crossing the river, Budugen was convinced that there were [-] troops on the other side of the river. This was also the main reason why he hesitated to cross the river by force.

"Our goal is to plunder the Hetao. If Zhang Liao is afraid to go forward, then we will cross the river. What if Zhang Liao comes after us?

Our sons and daughters will definitely think that Zhang Liaoyong is unstoppable, so the morale of the army will definitely be demoralized, so we must not avoid the battle.

I decided to storm the enemy's camp and annihilate the entire army of Zhang Liao's army. Only in this way can our army drive straight into Hetao.

You have all figured it out, only by beheading Zhang Liao and the enemy army can we plunder the women and livestock we need from the Hetao. "

"promise,,,,,,"

As soon as Budugen showed his power, all the people under him bowed their heads and took orders.Over the years, they have witnessed Budugen's dominance of the central Xianbei, and whenever Budugen ordered a deadly battle, no one was allowed to object.

Therefore, everyone also understood that right now, only by defeating the enemy's camp and beheading the enemy's general Zhang Liao, could they go to the Hetao Grassland to plunder smoothly.

The brutal offensive started again after dawn, and the Xianbei cavalry took turns taking turns to harass the defenders with their best cavalry and shooting tactics.

In the camp, Zhang Liao commanded the defense indifferently. Even though he lost a lot of soldiers, he still had no plans to use the [-] cavalry.

"General, most of our army's arrows have been consumed, and many soldiers have been injured by arrows. If we continue like this, I'm afraid we won't be able to hold on."

The deputy general reported immediately after counting the losses, and the [-] defenders were divided into two teams to take turns defending, but this couldn't hold back the [-] enemy cavalry taking turns to go into battle.

Even though there were not many casualties on my side, the soldiers were physically exhausted, and their iron bodies could not survive such a fight.

"We are tired, and the enemy army is even more tired. We are not allowed to change personnel. We have tents to rely on, and the river water saves us from threats from the rear. Can this not defeat the enemy army?"

Zhang Liao didn't mean to relax at all. In fact, he also knew that his eight thousand subordinates were not easy, but, for the sake of the overall situation, he had to let the soldiers stick to their posts.

"Hey, it's a pity that most of these 3000 soldiers are recruits, and their combat effectiveness is too weak. If they are elite veterans, only [-] people are enough to hold this camp, regardless of the [-] elites in Budugen.

After this battle, I must apply to the lord to train elite soldiers, otherwise, if I encounter the elite troops of the Central Plains heroes in the future, how can I fight. "

In fact, among Zhang Liao's [-] troops, except for [-] elite infantry and [-] elite cavalry, the remaining soldiers and horses can only be regarded as recruits, and their combat effectiveness is not strong.

In addition, he left two thousand elites and three thousand young men on the other side. Therefore, on the surface, he has a lot of troops, but in fact, there are not many soldiers that can really play a role.

However, relying on the natural danger of the river and Zhang Liao's adequate preparation, for the time being, he can still bear it.

Chapter 513 Detour Rescue 1

Bu Dugen's [-] troops were temporarily held back by Zhang Liao. Although they couldn't move forward, Bu Dugen didn't worry too much.

After all, in the original plan, he also had an ally who would attack the Hetao Grassland from the east, and the two armies would attack at the same time. No matter which route broke through first, they would all be able to enter the Hetao Grassland together in the end.

It is a pity that due to the contradictions between the central Xianbei and the eastern Xianbei, there is little communication between them.

In addition, coupled with the distance between the two parties, it is difficult to convey the news, so Bu Dugen still does not know the news that Kebi can be assassinated.

On the grassland two hundred miles north of Yeniudu, Chen Feng finally saw Zhao Yun who had returned triumphantly. This battle depended on Zhao Yun judging the situation and attacking in time to defeat the enemy in such a short period of time.

"The last general will wait to see the lord,,,,,,"

More than 4000 soldiers and horses knelt down to salute Chen Feng, and the more than [-] captives behind them all stared wide-eyed, fearing that Chen Feng would order them to be slaughtered.

"Okay, hahaha, Zilong, you really shined in this battle. Why did you come back with so few people? What about the rest of the soldiers? Where did Meng'er and Xiao'er go?"

Tens of thousands of elite troops were sent back and forth to be commanded by Zhao Yun, and more than 4000 people have come back now. Although so many prisoners have been brought back, the loss cannot be so great.

"Reporting to my lord, in this battle, our army swept across the eastern Xianbei grassland and defeated countless enemy troops. After the last general surrendered more than 30 Xianbei tribes, he knew that he could not move forward, so he escorted the captives back first.

In addition, a small number of enemy troops fled. Tuoba Jiefen's son led two thousand remnants of the defeated generals and fled northward, while Xiao'er led three thousand elite soldiers to pursue and kill them.

According to the itinerary, it is estimated that they will soon enter Mobei, Xiao'er issued a military order, not to destroy the remnants of the enemy army, and never return them.

Meng'er also led [-] elite troops to pursue the enemy in the northeast direction. I sent someone to contact him later, but failed to catch up. It is estimated that he has also entered the depths of the grassland now. "

Without these two young generals brought back, Zhao Yun felt that he had neglected his duty. After all, the grassland was too dangerous. If something happened to these two young generals, it would be a big loss for him.

"Forget it, these two guys boasted that they would ride out of the fortress and wipe out the barbarians at the beginning, but this time they have the opportunity, they will definitely make a mess before they come back.

They are also grown up, and they should go out and venture alone, otherwise, how can they be worthy of the reputation of their biological father, let them go. "

Hearing that his two adoptive sons led the army out without permission, Chen Feng could only smile wryly and shook his head. There was no other way, these two children were already competitive, and now they were impatient and reckless, so they would definitely not be able to sit still.

"It's just, my lord, the snow falls earlier in the north, no matter whether you go north or east, it will be covered by heavy snow at that time.

The two young generals led only [-] soldiers and horses to go deep into the grassland. When it snowed heavily, they would definitely be trapped on the grassland.

The enemy's strength is not strong, even if it is a sneak attack, it may not be able to hurt the two little generals. However, the most terrifying thing on this grassland is the weather. After heavy snow blocks the road, there will even be a wolf disaster.

In that case, whether it is the enemy, wild wolves, or bad weather, the two young generals may be injured. You must pay attention to this. "

Zhang Yan is relatively familiar with the situation on the grassland, and now that winter is approaching, the snow falls earlier in the north, so his worries are not unreasonable.

"Hmph, those two boys are smart, and many of their soldiers are young men from the youth battalion. Don't worry, the winter on the grassland can't trap them.

Besides, if they can't get out of this grassland and survive this winter, it can only be said that they are destined to be so, no wonder others.

Forget about them, I should have rewarded Zilong for his great victory, but this is a critical moment, and our army will continue to fight.

Zilong, I want to join you with [-] cavalry, [-] war horses, and [-] head of cattle and sheep, and let you go to the rear of the Xianbei in the middle and disturb the grassland behind the enemy. Do you dare to go? "

"The end is what you can ask for."

Chen Feng nodded with satisfaction, Zhao Yun is a talent, and a very rare cavalry genius.On the grassland, there is a wide range of detour space, which is the paradise of light cavalry.

Zhao Yun was able to use what he had learned here, and no one in the grassland could resist him. This was also the reason why Chen Feng wanted to exclude him from going deep into the grassland to attack.

"Zhao Yun is a cavalry general. As long as you give him cavalry and horses, he can gain military exploits. In history, he followed Liu Bei to the south, and all his knowledge was useless, so he only left the name of bravery.

Now that it's in my hands, how can I waste this cavalry genius? "

Looking at Zhao Yun's high-spirited expression, Chen Feng kept thinking in his heart that he was lucky to have a subordinate like Zhao Yun.

After thinking about it, Chen Feng nodded. He went south some time ago, and in the battle with Cao Jun's cavalry, his advantage did not come into play.

Even though Zhao Yun and other generals led the elite cavalry to entangle and harass the enemy, they did not maximize the advantages of the light cavalry.

The main reason was that the field was limited at that time, there was not enough space, and the range of detours was too small. In addition, I had to give up the detour and fight instead.

In this way, he followed Cao Cao's way.Therefore, after returning to Chang'an, Zhao Yun, Pang De and the other generals were very upset, and they had long thought of finding an opportunity to prove themselves again.

Now, Zhao Yun is waiting for the opportunity, so he is naturally unwilling to miss it.Although [-] cavalry is not many, on this grassland, as long as you have the ability, you can turn the world upside down.
