Great Han Empire

Chapter 15 Rising Sun
Regarding Que Ju's abnormal behavior, Murong Feng was unable to figure out his real intention for a while.He discussed with Tie Ao repeatedly, but he still didn't understand what Que Ju's intention was to continue to stay where he was.If we don't get close to Helian, with Ke Zui's troops already wiped out, loopholes will appear in the advancing surface surrounding Murong Feng.In other words, Que Ju's abandonment of fighting with the iron wolf and other main forces under the banner of Murong Feng actually means letting Murong Feng escape from the encirclement.

"Is it possible that Queju or Helian are still behind on Ke Zui's advancing route?" Murong Feng asked Tie Ao hesitantly.

"If there is a follow-up, it is to reserve a support army."

"But our scouts have been observing this route, and there are no cavalry within a hundred miles."

Tie Ao remained silent.Because he has no experience in commanding such a complicated battle situation.He is always commanded by the top, and he brings the team to fight.

Xianbei people have no writing, no education, only one mother tongue.If there is any important event to communicate, it is to draw a few symbols on a piece of wood, and the so-called wise men or smarter people in the tribe who are responsible for conveying the news will translate it to the tribal leader.In this kind of primitive civilization, the way of survival in a backward culture is often to do things by experience or intuitive instinct, even to fight.Therefore, people like Murong Feng who have great wisdom, self-taught but profound knowledge, among the Xianbei people worship and trust them as half gods.

In the past, Murong Feng advised Tan Shihuai, a generation of heroes who were rare in the world.Around Tan Shihuai, there are many such talents, but Murong Feng is more prominent in the military.After Tan Shihuai's death, these people were killed by Liansha, fled, rebelled, rebelled, and deteriorated. Basically, not many survived.Since Murong Feng escaped, he has been trying to make a comeback, but he has rarely met such a knowledgeable and eloquent person like himself.

He often stays alone in the big tent, thinking hard.At times like this he thought of the past.A group of people gathered around Tan Shihuai, talking and laughing, and they were able to brainstorm and solve many problems.Unfortunately no one can help him.Bear Ba is already very good.Murong Feng thinks that he lacks spirituality and it is difficult to become a master.As for Li Hong who was following him recently, firstly, he is a Han Chinese, so he is a troublesome person after all, secondly, he was injured before, and his mind can be confused for a while, and he doesn't know when he will recover.Normal people can't say it, let alone clever.

Murong Feng stood in the night, silently thinking about Queju.Then he saw Li Hong.

Surrounded by a group of Xianbei soldiers, Li Hong was roaring and waving a tree trunk one foot (equivalent to 23 centimeters today) thick.There are seven or eight swords of different lengths stuck on the ground around Li Hong.With his upper body naked, Li Hong danced around the tree trunk, but he didn't touch a saber.The soldiers onlookers exclaimed and cheered.

Murong Feng said to the guard standing behind him, "Go and call the leopard back."

While wiping the sweat off his body with his clothes, Li Hong strode up behind Murong Feng, panting heavily.

"Master..."

Murong Feng frowned, "Put on your clothes. Do you think you look good with your chubby body?"

Li Hong immediately did a chopping pose with the knife, puffed up his muscles like a small hill, and asked Murong Feng's guards around him: "Does it look good?"

The guards couldn't help laughing, even Murong Feng couldn't help kicking him, and said with a smile, "Don't be ashamed and conspicuous."

Li Hong put on his shirt and followed Murong Feng in the camp.Seeing the commander-in-chief patrolling the camp, the soldiers around stood up and saluted the commander-in-chief along the way.

While waving back, Murong Feng was talking loudly to the soldiers.During the interval, Murong Feng expressed his worries to Li Hong.Li Hong always blindly thinks that the Marshal must have a plan in advance, and he is just testing him, so he said very casually: "The purpose of the Marshal is to get all three tribes of Mijia and Murong to join the battle. Since the two have already Crossing the river, his determination to participate in the war has been clearly revealed, so why worry about it. We will eat Queju sooner or later anyway, so why care about whether he has reinforcements. Simply mobilize the whole army, surround Queju as quickly as possible, and destroy Queju. Eat up his reinforcements, and then eat up Helian. Our army is in full swing, look at the world, who is the commander-in-chief's opponent?" Li Hongyue became more excited when he said that, and he almost raised his arms and shouted.

The surrounding soldiers only heard Li Hong saying loudly, "Look at the world, who is the opponent of the Marshal", and suddenly felt that what the disheveled Han man said was very reasonable, and immediately the alert soldier shouted: "Marshal! Invincible!"

First a small group shouted, then a large crowd shouted, and then the whole barracks shouted.

"The handsome is invincible..."

The sound shook the sky, and the excited soldiers opened their throats and roared heartily.Immediately, all the people felt their hearts surged and their blood boiled, and they wished they could jump on their horses and gallop across the battlefield.

Murong Feng was infected by the high emotions of the soldiers, and tears of excitement filled his eyes.Li Hong only felt that his whole body was full of strength, and he shouted hoarsely.

In the middle of the night, Murong Feng called Tie Ao and the others to the big tent.Everyone didn't know what happened, so they all came flying horses in the camp.The rapid hooves of the horses awakened many soldiers who had just fallen asleep.

"Tomorrow morning, we will rush to Jutun to encircle and wipe out Queju." Murong Feng waited for everyone to sit down, and then said.

"Marshal, the Sky Blue Tribe and the Coyote Tribe will arrive tomorrow. There are still some tribes that are farther away coming one after another. Shouldn't we wait?"

"No more. I'll send people to stay here. Once they arrive, tell them to rush to Jutun for support."

"Queju has 5000 troops, and we only have [-]. We can't guarantee to eat him in one bite. Wouldn't it be safer for the commander to wait for two more days until all the reinforcements arrive?" Hou Li, the commander of the Xianchi tribe, said softly Said.

"Iron Wolf Duan Song's [-] troops will arrive at Jutun one step earlier than us. They will attack from the northwest first. After Tie Ao leads [-] cavalry to cut in from the northeast, I will lead the Qin Friends of the Dead Mountain Tribe, Feiji from the Sumu tribe, Plowshare from the Liyu tribe, and Tuhuo from the Xigou tribe, the four commanders cut in from the southwest. Thirteen thousand against five thousand, we should be sure to win the battle quickly."

Murong Feng glanced at everyone, and said slowly, "Eating Que Ju from the Changlu Tribe, and Ke Zui from the Tiger Tribe are basically finished. In the central Xianbei, only the two Murong from the south bank of the Rushui River are as strong as us. Fight. After this battle, you can get a lot of spoils from these two big tribes, which should be able to compensate for the losses of the various tribes."

The tribal leaders headed by Tie Ao hurriedly saluted Murong Feng, "Thank you, Commander, for your generosity."

Before dawn, there was a resounding sound of bull horns in the sky above Yeyan Wai.

The troops are gathering.The soldiers had already finished their breakfast.Under the urging of the sound of the trumpets, everyone packed up the tents in an orderly manner, extinguished the remaining fire in the fire, led the horses to saddle, and slowly gathered under the banners of their respective troops.

The eagles of the Black Eagle Tribe spread their wings and soared above the wild geese, with a crisp cry from their mouths.Looking at the ground from the sky above the Wild Goose Wai, there are five streams of people of different colors flowing towards the pasture outside the camp.

Murong Feng rode a horse and stood under his red flag.He looked stern, looking at the continuous stream of soldiers in front of him, his eyes were filled with excitement, and he exuded a high fighting spirit.

Murong Feng looked back at Li Hong who was sitting on the horse and looking around.Li Hong's black panther probably sensed the impending battle, and walked around in small steps uneasy, raising its head and neighing from time to time.Li Hong kicked the horse's belly in embarrassment, "This kid is dishonest."

"Still nervous?" Murong Feng asked kindly.Thinking of the tension in the Mazuipo battle, Li Hong's face immediately turned red.He shook his head hastily, puffed up his chest and shouted loudly: "Back to the commander, don't be nervous." Then he whispered triumphantly: "How is it? Am I right this time? It's really exciting to have a fight. "

Murong Feng was amused by him, "You are a genius, didn't I tell you?" Immediately, a trace of imperceptible worry and worry flashed in his eyes.What is he worried about?Looking at Li Hong's black hair fluttering slightly in the morning breeze, Murong Feng suddenly felt that the world was really unfair.The cowardly Han Dynasty is full of talents, and it is a genius to catch any idiot.Looking at the Xianbei country in Nuo Da, he couldn't find a young man like Li Hong.The Great Han Kingdom has many talents but weak national strength, and is often invaded wantonly by the Xianbei Kingdom, which lacks talents but is aggressive.The world may be fair again.But Li Hong is a big Han. Once his memory is restored or he encounters any stimulation, he still wants to go back.Once such a person holds military power in the Han Kingdom, what will it mean to the Xianbei Kingdom?

But Li Hong didn't know what Murong Feng was thinking, he was still showing off his cleverness to Murong Feng triumphantly, "The commander-in-chief's plan is really perfect. Eliminate Queju, and then surround Helian with the fastest speed." , In this way, the initiative of the entire central Xianbei battlefield has been firmly grasped by the general. Regardless of the success or failure of playing Hanshan, the general is already invincible."

Murong Feng looked at him in surprise, "Leopard, do you keep the whole Xianbei situation in mind?"

"Didn't the commander-in-chief say that a general must grasp the overall situation in his heart in order to obtain the maximum benefit on the local battlefield?"

Murong Feng nodded appreciatively, "It's one thing to say it, but another thing to do it."

The messengers from various ministries came galloping one after another, reporting loudly to Murong Feng that the army has assembled.

Murong Feng made a starting gesture towards the trumpeter behind him.

"Ugh..."

A long sound of the horn awakened the sleeping Chaoyang.It opened its eyes slightly, and dimly saw thousands of troops and horses, led by a big fiery red eagle flag, making earth-shattering thunder like a flood breaking an embankment, roaring all the way, and rushing towards itself aggressively.It was startled, and its eyes widened in horror.

Suddenly, the sky full of red clouds shot out of the horizon, covering the raging tide.

The sun rises.
