Great Han Arrow God

Chapter 541 Yuhuan
Only he knew how much pressure Liang Xiao was under, but the pressure Yu Shan was under was obvious to all—at least he felt so.It seemed to him that everyone was watching his jokes.Beheading the school lieutenant Kan Yu before the battle became his biggest heart trouble. No one dared to speak to him, no one dared to speak to him, but waited silently for orders.

He knew that he should make a decisive decision, whether to continue the attack or retreat immediately, and he should make a decision as soon as possible-the supply camp was destroyed, and he could not hold on for too long-but he was still unable to make a decision.

He didn't know how to decide for himself.The successive setbacks made him seriously unconfident in his ability to lead the army.

He didn't know if his decision would be listened to.What goes into the minds of the generals after making such a stupid mistake, what if they refuse to carry it out?
Time passed day by day amidst Yu Shan's self-doubt.

In fact, this period of time is not very long, no more than five days before and after.But these five days almost crushed Yu Shan. Just as he mustered up his courage and was about to launch another attack, Wei Qing and Wu were led by thirteen building boats with five thousand paces and appeared in Zhangpu.

Seeing Mei Gao, Liang Xiao was surprised and delighted.He strode forward and held Mei Gao's hand tightly. "Young girl, why are you here?"

"Can't I come?" Mei Gao laughed, patted Liang Xiao's hand, and looked at Zhao Yingqi.Liang Xiao understood and introduced quickly.When Mei Gao heard that Zhao Yingqi was the prince of Nanyue, his expression changed immediately, but he didn't say anything.He and Zhao Yingqi greeted each other politely, and then pulled Liang Xiao aside.

"Bo Ming, you are so brave to bring the Nanyue prince here. What if something happens to you?"

Liang Xiao smiled, briefly explained the situation in Nanyue, and finally said: "I can't help it. Lu Jia's influence is too great. If he doesn't have enough status, no one can compete with him. Zhao Yingqi is young, It's so deceiving."

Mei Gao smiled wryly and shook his head. "You really are unscrupulous. But then again, if you hadn't been brave enough, you wouldn't have achieved what you are today. Bo Ming, I have two missions here. One is to go to Xiqiang and there are still some As a result, the emperor gave me the opportunity to serve in the army. Second, the emperor asked me to bring you something."

As Mei Gao said, he took out a thin brocade box from his sleeve and handed it to Liang Xiao.Liang Xiao opened it suspiciously. On the silk in the brocade box lay a jade ring carved from Hetian jade. It was crystal clear and flawless, but not too big. The diameter was only about three inches, small and exquisite.Liang Xiao played with it for a while, feeling a little puzzled.

"I have traveled thousands of miles just to give you a jade ring? Although this jade ring is beautiful, it is somewhat meager."

Mei Gao couldn't help laughing, and reached out to pat Liang Xiao on the shoulder. "Okay, don't think it's expensive. For this jade ring, Ling Tang and Master Weng spent nearly two thousand gold."

"What do you mean?" Liang Xiao was even more confused.

Meigao talked about Liu Ling's donation of money for relief, and finally said: "Of course this jade ring is a rare thing, but its value is not the jade ring itself, but its symbolic meaning. Jade is a ritual vessel, and the emperor bestows jade on it. , there must be a purpose. Ringer, also, has the meaning of consummation. That is to say, after this battle is over, you can return to Beijing to take up a post."

Liang Xiao raised his eyebrows, only then did he understand Mei Gao's meaning.It turned out that giving Yuhuan was a sign of reconciliation.

"Besides the jade ring, what else can you usually give?"

Mei Gao understood what Liang Xiao wanted to ask.He smiled. "Jade Jue."

"Jue, Jue Ye, what do you mean by severance?"

Mei Gao nodded. "You don't want that day."

Liang Xiao didn't make a sound, put away the jade ring, turned around and gave it to Xi Ya to put it away, but felt a little indescribably depressed.He didn't feel sorry for the two thousand gold, even if it didn't happen, he would not have any objection when he learned that Shandong was hit by a disaster and donated two thousand gold for disaster relief.But he was very uncomfortable with having the power of life and death in his hands.

No matter how hard you try, if the emperor is not willing, you can only live far away.If he gets upset and gives you a jade ring, he will cut off all kindness from now on, and maybe you will be asked to take the blame and commit suicide.

What kind of shit is this?
Liang Xiao didn't say anything more, but asked about the battle.Mei Gao could also feel that Liang Xiao was unhappy, so he tacitly changed the topic, talking about how he rushed from Chang'an to Huainan, then to Kuaiji, and then to here.

Meigao was sent to serve as an envoy, and the emperor appointed him as the envoy to supervise the army. He rushed from Chang'an to Huainan, became the contact between the imperial court and the Huainan Navy, and supervised the southern expedition of the army.Together with Wu Bei, he led the refitted thirteenth-floor ship to Kuaiji, joined Han Anguo, Wei Qing and others, and attacked Dongye by sea.King Ying of Minyue did not expect this move, so in a hurry, he had to go out of the city and surrender.

Soon, Han Yue rushed to Dongye and told Han Anguo about Liang Xiao and Zhao Yingqi.Knowing that Liang Xiao had captured Zhangpu, Han Anguo was overjoyed, and immediately arranged for Wei Qing and Wu Ke to lead five thousand horses, take a building boat, and go straight to Zhangpu along the coastal road.

"Doctor Han has sent a letter to the Daxingling to inform him of the situation here. If there is no accident, the Daxingling should have dispatched troops, but there are many mountains on the western front. It is hard to say whether he can come here in time. Bo Ming , can we make an emergency landing on Yu Shan?"

"I can't think of where Yu Shan can go now." Liang Xiao smiled. "What you want to ask is whether you can kill Yu Shan?"

Mei Gao also laughed. "Yes, His Majesty didn't say it clearly, but I think we can take this opportunity to accept Minyue as Han County, and at the same time warn Nanyue, lest they push back and refuse to accept hostages."

Liang Xiao nodded slightly. "I also have this intention. The reason why I have been promoting the power of the cavalry is to let the Nanyue monarchs and ministers realize from the bottom of their hearts that the strength of the imperial court cannot be competed by the South Vietnam. Put away the heart of sitting in the sky. I have finished the preparation, now it's up to you Performed."

Mei Gao curled his lips and said jokingly: "Your bedding is too high, how can we step up, or we will have a black nose and swollen eyes. Your Majesty said, this hundred horses are for you Yes, you don’t push it out, let’s perform it again.”

Liang Xiao laughed out loud. "Let me be Wei Qing's striker? I'm not going. How about it, I'll recommend someone."

"Who?"

Liang Xiao turned his head and looked at Han Shuo who came to protect Mei Gao from a distance. "Here, that kid."

Mei Gao thought for a while and felt it made sense, so he nodded.

After the discussion, Meigao said goodbye and left.Liang Xiao invited Zhao Yingqi over and informed the battle arrangement.Knowing that the reinforcements from the Han army had arrived, they had captured the capital of Minyue, destroyed Minyue, and planned to wipe out Yu Shan, Zhao Yingqi was of course happy.He asked excitedly: "Your Majesty, when we attack Yu Shan, can we join the battle?"

"Your Highness is interested, of course you can. However, the situation is not so urgent now, so it's better to be cautious. Tens of thousands of people rush to kill, and no one can guarantee whether there will be danger. Therefore, I suggest you still It’s better not to join the battle, just stay on the hill and watch my Han army fight.”

Zhao Yingqi blinked. "Although the Han army is brave, they only have five thousand cavalry. Can they defeat Yu Shan?"

"Your Highness, why don't you wait and see?" Liang Xiao smiled meaningfully. "If there is a stalemate at that time, His Highness can also play by ear. Whether to take advantage of the opportunity to flee far away, or to decide the outcome with one blow, is all in the mind of His Highness."

Zhao Yingqi rubbed his chin and laughed twice.

-

Mei Gao returned to the camp by the sea, and passed on Liang Xiao's opinion to Wei Qing and Wu Bei.Wei Qing and Wu Bei were relatively silent. Han said that he was even more surprised and couldn't believe his ears for a while.

After a while, Wu coughed lightly, breaking the calm. "General Wei, Liang Junhou is afraid of slander and ridicule, so he refuses to accept this task, so he can only see the general showing off his prestige."

Wei Qing glanced at Wu Bei and smiled silently.He is not stupid, how could he fail to see that Wu Bei was trying to excuse Liang Xiao.Liang Xiao is Huainan's son-in-law, and he has always been on good terms with Wu Bei. If Liang Xiao were to be his striker, Wu Bei would definitely not be happy.

However, he didn't intend to let Liang Xiao be the striker.He is equal to Liang Xiao in terms of rank and rank, and also called a brother, how can he regard Liang Xiao as a fighting general under his subordinates.Fortunately, the Son of Heaven didn't say that, he just said that he would hand over the cavalry composed of hundreds of officials to Liang Xiao, and let him show the power of the fine cavalry of the Han army.Liang Xiao's recommendation to Han Shuo to lead these hundred officials is not considered as a resistance to the imperial edict.

Wei Qing turned to look at Han and said. "The champion Hou Zhuyu is in front, you have to work hard, you can't lose the prestige of my Han cavalry."

Han said that he was very excited, and quickly said: "Please don't worry, Junhou, I will definitely live up to the expectations of the two princes."

Wei Qing sighed softly: "I was going to hand over all the cavalry to Bo Ming's command, but he wanted to be lazy, so I had to take responsibility for it myself. Mr. Wu, you will be in charge of the infantry. Let us join forces on foot and cavalry to let Nanyue How about seeing the strength of the Han army?"

Wu Bei smiled and nodded in agreement. "It is my honor to fight side by side with General Wei. General Wei, when do you think it is better to start?"

"No hurry." Wei Qing waved his hands calmly. "Since Bo Ming succeeded in attacking the camp and burned Yu Shan's heavy camp, Yu Shan must not last long. We can compete with him first, and then defeat him in one blow. Don't forget, Mr. Wu, not only the South Vietnamese Army, but also the Liangshan Army. There are still [-] South Vietnamese troops to the south, if they cannot be deterred, Zhangpu may not be able to stand firmly."

Wu Bei nodded slightly.He had learned from Wei Qing's stability a long time ago, and knew that he was not the kind of person who was eager for quick success, so he was not surprised at all by Wei Qing's arrangement.

They negotiated and decided to set up camp tightly and not to attack. They just sent an envoy to see Yu Shan for the simple purpose of persuading Yu Shan to surrender.However, their persuasion to capitulate was not sincere at all, just to delay time.Just as Yu Shan made a little request, the emissary refused, and then pulled a bunch of useless things, and went back home, making Yu Shan confused.

Then Wei Qing and Wu Bei were not idle.Wei Qing led a group of [-] fine cavalry, and Wu Bei led more than [-] infantry, practicing on the slopes by the river every day.Lang Guan, led by Han Shuo, seized all the time to familiarize himself with the terrain and prepare for the upcoming battle.Han said he got the chance to lead the army by accident, and he worked hard to fight a good battle, like Liang Xiao and Wei Qing.

During the large-scale military training of the Han army, the Minyue army was frightened out of their wits, especially seeing groups of Han cavalry galloping back and forth on the grass by the river, which made them even more uneasy.In just a few days, they were attacked twice by Liang Xiao.Yu Shan's [-] personal guard battalion was defeated with only [-] cavalry at a time. The number was unknown, but the effect was very exaggerated. They directly burned the supply battalion, and they didn't even see what Liang Xiao looked like.

The cavalry left a heavy shadow in the hearts of the Minyue Army. At this moment, seeing more cavalry training in front of them, one can imagine the pressure.You must know that the cavalry led by Liang Xiao rode Yunnan horses, but these cavalry rode Xiongnu horses. Although they could not be compared with Yu Shan's Western Region horse, they were without exception much higher than the Yunnan horses. The speed is also significantly faster.

What kind of scene will such cavalry charge to kill?
The daily training of the Han army was like a rehearsal of the Ling Chi torture for the Fujian and Yue troops, which made the Fujian and Yue troops very nervous.Before the fight started, the Han army had the upper hand psychologically.

While Wei Qing was training every day, Liang Xiao was not idle either.He asked the South Vietnamese knights to train as soon as possible so that they could participate in the battle when necessary, while he took Zhao Yingqi to watch the theater every day.The purpose of attacking and killing Yu Shan was to kill the chicken to scare the monkey. Yu Shan is the chicken, and Zhao Yingqi is the monkey.It is most convincing to let him use his own eyes to understand the strength of the cavalry of the Han army. When he returns to Panyu in the future, he will know how to persuade Nanyue King Zhao Hu.

Zhao Yingqi quickly understood what Liang Xiao meant.After observing the training of the Han army at close range, he said with a wry smile: "Your Majesty, when will you fight? If you don't fight again, Yu Shan is fine. I was scared to death by you first."

"What are you afraid of?" Liang Xiao said with a smile, "Do you want to fight us too?"

"Don't!" Zhao Yingqi shook his head repeatedly. "Lend me two courage, I dare not fight with you." He let out a breath, and said: "You have too many horses, so tall, and run so fast."

"Do you think we are only stronger than cavalry?"

"Is not it?"

Liang Xiao laughed out loud.He knew that it was impossible for Zhao Yingqi to bow his head so easily.Young people, who will easily admit that they are not good enough, they have to find some psychological comfort for themselves.He laughed twice, but didn't continue.Zhao Yingqi felt weird, turned his head to look at him, raised his eyebrows, and waited for Liang Xiao to explain to him.

Liang Xiao was silent for a moment, seeing that Zhao Yingqi still didn't give up, he smiled and said, "I'm telling you now, you won't take it seriously either. After this battle is over, I'll take you to take a boat ride. Time to see for yourself."

Zhao Yingqi frowned slightly. "What do you mean to say, you guys are stronger than Nanyue?"

Liang Xiao glanced at it, then chuckled lightly, revealing a bit of disdain.Zhao Yingqi was a little annoyed, but didn't speak.Since Liang Xiao said that he would be allowed to take a boat ride and see for himself, he will wait patiently and see it when the time comes.

The two were thinking about each other, neither of them spoke, but there was an invisible rivalry that planted seeds in their hearts, like two precious knives colliding with each other, knocking out a stream of sparks, clanging and clanging.
