Fufeng Song

Chapter 30 Battle of Banqiao

But after a while, the two of them arrived outside the gate.Lu Yao jumped off the horse, handed over the reins to the solemn-looking guard, and then strode towards the commander-in-chief.A few steps away from Shuai Zhang, Liu Kun's voice was already heard.Lu Yao didn't have to worry about being late, so he rushed in by roll call.

All the generals in the tent looked a little nervous, but Liu Kun stroked his shiny beard and smiled up to the sky, very happy.

His voice was loud and mellow, full of appeal: "Hahaha, you boy, you are too courageous!"

Standing next was Ding Miao with his head held high.Kneeling at his feet was a bearded man with braided hair.The barbarian's face was covered with blood, and even the snow-white fur cloak wrapped around his body was stained with blood in many places. He looked really embarrassed.

It turned out that Ding Miao went out to spy today, but he stayed away from the team and went out to the vicinity of Yuci City.On the way, I met a group of Xiongnu army horses meandering across the northern source of Zhangshui River, and went straight to Wuxiang.Ding Miao followed closely along the way relying on his extraordinary scouting skills, and finally he caught the opportunity to surprise the barbarian formation.

This Ding Miao only led more than ten Qingqi men, yet he dared to attack the barbarian army, which was a hundred times larger in number than him, it was really daring and reckless to the extreme.Such a move would be like sending someone to die, but Ding Miao succeeded.The Hu people were caught off guard, and Ding Miao brutally beheaded and killed dozens of people. He passed by and captured a nobleman of the Xiongnu back.Such bravery and courage are worthy of being one of the best heroes under Yue Shigong's command.

Lu Yao couldn't help admiring secretly.

He also heard from Ding Miao that he had captured the Huns, and then galloped all the way to get rid of the pursuers and hurried back to the army formation.He didn't bother to ask questions along the way, so he punched the guy violently when he had nothing to do, and he punched the guy hundreds of times along the way.The poor Huns were a bit stubborn at first, but after being full of old punches all the way, they were repaired to death, and now they are ready to answer every question.

According to the Hu man, the intruders were under the command of Liu Jing, the general of the Xiongnu who stayed behind in Jinyang, with a total of 4000 soldiers on foot and cavalry.

It should be noted that although the Huns claim to control 20 people, in fact, the total force is about [-], excluding the subordinate tribes.Most of them have gone south with Da Shanyu Liu Yuan to fight fiercely with the Luoyang Forbidden Army deployed along the Yellow River.Liu Jing's army was the largest mobile force left in the Jinzhong Plain after the Huns went south. It was mainly composed of warriors from the Xi and Jie tribes attached to the Huns, and they were usually scattered in several counties along the Fenshui River for food.

Yu Liukun went all the way north from Shangdang, constantly recruiting refugees and people along the way, with a huge momentum.Liu Jing, who was in charge of staying in Taiyuan, did not dare to be negligent, and while reporting to Liu Yuan, the big order, he gathered troops to resist.

More than 50 enemy troops are not a big number.Over the past few years, the Eight Kings of the clan have fought in the Central Plains, using hundreds of thousands of soldiers, and there have been more than one battles with a scale of [-] million people.Liu Kun, who is the right arm of the King of the East China Sea, has led the army many times, and all the generals under his command have led thousands of troops to fight.It's just that, now that everyone is joining forces with light cavalry, the available troops are so meager that it is really difficult to resist the enemy in the face of [-] barbarians.

At the moment, the expressions of all the generals became a little dignified.

"4000 troops..." Linghu Sheng, the guard, said in a deep voice, "If we add up these miscellaneous beard tribes that have been entangled with us in the past, the total number will probably exceed [-]."

"In comparison, our army currently has [-] troops. In addition, there are more than [-] old and weak refugees who are too weak to fight. The strength of the troops is at a disadvantage, not to mention that those old and weak are really burdens." General Han Shu calculated After a while, he raised his head to look at Liu Kun: "Master..."

Another general, Lu Chang, probably felt that Han Shu was discouraged, so he interjected, "Wen Hao, what do you think of those barbarians' fighting strength?"

It's a pity that Ding Miao is a straightforward person, how can he care about Lu Chang's wishes?He curled his lips: "The barbarian is very fierce, and he rides lightly and fast, hehe... Just now, I, Ding, came out on the horse. If you change it, I'm afraid I may not be able to retreat unscathed."

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the tent suddenly stagnated.

But the barbarian's spirit came from nowhere, and he hissed loudly: "My brother is Liu Jing, the general who destroyed Jin! He is the most valiant hero of the Huns, one of you can beat a hundred of you! One thousand Hey! You Han dogs are fighting against us, and there is only one dead end!"

Before he finished speaking, Ding Miao kicked him in the face.The barbarian burst out more than a dozen teeth and passed out immediately.

"The general who destroyed Jin? A hero?" Liu Kun sneered and stood up.He walked a few steps before the case, and suddenly pointed out: "Lu Yao!"

Lu Yao couldn't help being startled, this was the second time he participated in a formal military meeting, why was Liu Kun singled out to speak both times?He hurriedly stepped out and said: "The end is here."

Liu Kun looked at Lu Yao with piercing eyes: "This Hu'er keeps boasting about the bravery of the enemy general Liu Jing. Then tell me what kind of scum Liu Jing is!"

"Yes!" Lu Yao bowed and saluted, took the opportunity to think for a while, and said after a while: "Liu Jing is a heavy general under the command of Liu Yuan, the Hun's great chanyu. Liu Yuan falsely claimed his surname as Liu, so he is undoubtedly a barbarian. This man is stern and cowardly, and he hesitates to use troops. The generals and soldiers of our Bingzhou are not afraid of him. In addition, this Liu Jingsheng is cruel, easy to kill, and extremely tyrannical. Last year in May , he led troops to attack Sizhou, and plundered more than 3 men and women along the way. Resenting the slow travel of these people, he actually drove all [-] people into the Yellow River and drowned, and their bodies flowed down the river for more than a hundred miles. Weeping from the sky, heavy rain It has been going on for ten days. This move is absolutely unacceptable to human beings, and even Liu Yuan was furious when he heard the news, and immediately dismissed him for investigation."

Hearing Liu Jing's deeds, all the generals were furious.Immediately, some people were eager to fight, and some even raised their arms and shouted: If you can't kill this beast, you will not be killed.

"The barbarians are cruel, and the murders are not limited to this one? Pity me, the people of Huaxia, who suffer so much. I was ordered to appease Bingzhou, and I was about to wipe out these human beasts and return the people to a peaceful world. "Liu Kun coughed lightly, got up and said: "But this generation is arrogant and ignorant, dare to come to invite me to attack, it is asking for death. Tomorrow, all soldiers must fight the enemy bravely, beat the Xiongnu hard, and pay with blood!"

Liu Kun's confident words immediately infected the subordinates and generals, and the generals responded loudly, shaking the house.Although this army has only been formed for three to five days, and the enemy's strength is far greater than that of our own, the morale of the soldiers is extremely high, and no one takes the enemy seriously.

Half an hour later, Lu Yao returned to his barracks.

Gao Xiang and Shen Jin rushed forward first: "Daoming, what did you say in the military meeting? Are you going to fight the Huns?"

"We're going to fight!" Lu Yao nodded emphatically, "Besides, the newly-organized ministries of Yue Shigong are still unsuitable for battle. This time, we don't need to go into battle. We only need to obey the orders of the lord. We need to select some elite cavalry, Incorporated into General Ding Miao's subordinates."

The Jin army inherited the system of the former Wei Dynasty, and there were few large-scale cavalry units in the army.A small number of cavalry are usually scattered in various ministries, and they will be organized and commanded in a unified manner before the battle, so as to undertake difficult combat tasks such as searching for the enemy, breaking out, and chasing.Those who are selected must be well-known warriors in the army.For example, the elite "Tiger and Leopard Riders" that the former Wei Wu Emperor relied on to frighten the world were initially formed by temporarily mobilizing brave warriors with more than a hundred commanders from the entire army, and then gradually turned into permanent troops.

Therefore, Gao and Shen suddenly lifted their spirits: "Very good!"

These low-ranking military officers in Bingzhou had fought fiercely with the Huns for many years, and forged countless blood feuds, so their minds were much more simple, and they only wanted to kill the enemy and avenge their hatred.

Feeling a little relieved, Lu Yao nodded, "Old Xue and I will definitely go. One of you must stay to lead the army. Whoever goes and who stays, you can discuss it."

Gao Xiang stared at each other deeply, both of them stretched their faces.
