Chapter 147: First win a son

After arriving at Junyi, Yuan Mulan ordered to take all the food and livestock of the people in the city, slaughter thousands of pigs, cattle and sheep, drink all night, and reward the three armies, so as to eliminate the depressed depressed atmosphere of Cangyuan and inspire the soldiers to use their lives.

As for the people, whether they will starve to death, no one cares. Throughout history, if they have been expeditioned to enemy countries, the food route will be thousands of miles away, and even the most powerful empire cannot completely solve the problem of logistics supply in wartime. As long as the soldiers are allowed to feed the enemy, they will inevitably disturb the people. Those so-called benevolence and righteousness are just a lot of historical writings, which are taboos for the respected people.

The Wei army was founded by the Xianbei people and was obviously not worthy of the title of "benevolence and righteousness". When food was short, the Han people were just two-legged sheep, and could kill them to satisfy hunger. The Yuan Mulanzhi army was famously strict, so they barely restrained the troops from taking only food, and no other more vicious incidents occurred.

Therefore, if you control the army without killing indiscriminately, burning houses, not humiliating women, and looting property without any bottom line, you can be called a benevolent and righteous army!

This is the truth of the war.

In contrast to the widespread existence of this era, Xu You, at the beginning of his training in Qiantang, combined modern consciousness, worked hard to improve the cultural literacy of the organization, and then gave him a sense of faith and mission. Then he used the Supervision Department to brainwash and establish an open and transparent reward and punishment system. It can completely prevent orders, not demolish houses when frozen to death, and not plunder when starved to death, and overtake the entire era from a spiritual level.

The lights in Junyi City were brightly lit and never turned off all night, and the sounds of playing and drinking were endless. However, there was abnormal silence in the city guarding the main roads. The fully armed guards guarded the important roads. There were more than a dozen generals in the lobby. Yuan Mulan stood in the middle, staring at the map, and used the tip of the scimitar to pass through the scimitar, saying: "Xu You's troops were divided into two groups, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one by one, one by one by one, one by one by one, one by one by one, one by one by one, one by one by one, one by one by one, one by one by one, one by one by one, one by one by one, one by one by one, one by one by one, one by one by one, one by one by one, one by one by one, one by one by one, one by one by one, one by one by one, one by one by one, one by one by one, one by one by one, one by one by one by one, one by one by one by one, one by one by one by one, one by one by one by one, one by one by one by one, one by one by one by one by one, one by one by one by one by one by one by one by one by one by one by one by one by one by one by one by one by one by one by one by one by one by one by one by one by one by one by one by one by one by one by one

The outer marquis who followed the army said: "According to Bailu's investigation, there is the Xu-character flag on land. The three capitals under his command, Huerdu, Bashandu and Zhenhaidu, are all here, perhaps as the main force..."

Yan Lishi, general of the Huwei Central Army General, said: "Xu You's three guards, except for Hu Er, are all equipped. Since its establishment, they have never shown their combat power on the battlefield. Bashandu and Zhenhai have made great achievements. If both of them are on land, then they will definitely be the main force."

"If Land is really the main force, will our army set up a formation in Junyi and wait for it to work hard, and wait for it to come from afar, physically and mentally exhausted before fighting?" said General Lou Mijia, the Zhige.

"General Lou said very much. The enemy's forces are powerful. It is better to take over the city first to defend it, consume its spirit, and then choose the right to defeat the enemy." General Pingmo He Luoluo was defeated repeatedly and was already afraid of the Chu army. He abandoned his past passion, as if he had no city wall as a support, and his back became unsafe.

"Pingmo was scared!" General Yuchi Xin of the Cavalry said coldly: "Xu You has a thunder cannon in his hand, and guarding the city is undoubtedly waiting for death. Our army is all cavalry. We should be traversing the plains hundreds of miles around Junyi. How can we hide in the city and be the turtle in the jar?"

He Luoluo was named and could not hold his face. However, the General of the Cavalry was above him. Yuchi Xin was deeply favored by the emperor. With his family background, he dared not commit crimes. He suppressed his anger and said with a smile: "Then the relationship is good. Please lead the general of the Cavalry to defeat the enemy. If he can fight and defeat him, I would like to reward him with three thousand beautiful girls, one hundred thousand cattle and sheep, and a hundred brocades as a reward!"

Yuchi Xin was not afraid and hummed: "Prepare your bets, and when the battle is over, I will go to your mansion to get it!"

"Okay, what if you can't win?"

"If I can't win, I will wear a woman's clothes and bring you water to wash your feet!"

Hearing this, General Hebayun, who was dozing off beside him, also became interested and said, "Okay, I will be your best person. If anyone refuses to admit it afterwards, I will not accept it."

With this kind-hearted veteran general patted his chest, the bet was made. No one dared to blame the debt, whether it was Yuchi Xin or He Luoluo. But for the Xianbei nobles, wearing women's clothing was undoubtedly a great humiliation. There was no other way but to die, so Yuchi Xin's bet was actually his life!

The dispute between the two was just a small episode, and the discussion continued. Li Chong, the general of the Longwei Central Army, said: "The boats travel faster, and the water should arrive at Junyi first than the land. I think we should focus on the south bank of the Binshui..."

Mu Fan agreed and said, "The military strategy says that the real one is weak, and the virtual one is solid. Xu You is too cunning, and the main force may not be on land."

"That's right! Xu You knew that our army was short of food and grass, and was eager to fight. If he really thought that land was the main force and went to fight, the water was the main force. He was surrounded by him and was surrounded by the enemy from both sides, he would definitely be defeated." Li Chong was also a famous general in the six towns of the Northern Wei Dynasty. He had a close friendship with Mu Fan. He had always had a good relationship. After hearing his support, he immediately said with a clear idea.

Yuan Mu Lanjing's audience was arguing. After a while, he said, "After occupying Junyi, I ordered people to lock the river with iron in the river, and there were many wooden stakes at the bottom of the river, which could block the Chu Navy's boats. Since they cut off their route, it would be better to take this opportunity to concentrate their forces to attack the other route, and then kill a resurgence..."

Mu Fan's eyes lit up and said, "Xu You relied on his troops to annihilate our army, so he divided his troops to attack, and I happened to defeat them one by one!" He offered his advice: "However, the Youdu Army warships are tall, especially good at water battles. They only use iron chains and wooden stakes, which may not be hindered for too long. I think we can collect more old ships, dig them into the air, put them on the wooden stakes, layer by layer, sink them into the water, and then use the wooden wheel of the ox cart to connect the iron chain to wrap them around the body..."

"A clever plan!"

Yuan Mulan immediately adopted it and ordered someone to implement it immediately, saying: "There are many waterways around Junyi City, which is not conducive to the development of our army. Therefore, I chose this place for the decisive battle with the Chu army!" The scimitar cut west from the map and gently tapped a certain place.

Everyone looked over, it was Zhongmu!

Zhongmu was a place of war since the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. Lu Xuan Gong met with princes here, Qin Gongsun Zhuang attacked Zheng here, Liu Bang defeated Qin generals here, and Cao Cao and Yuan Shao fought here.

The choice of Mu as the place for the decisive battle was the result of Yuan Mulan's careful consideration. Her eyes were like a pool of clear water, but they were filled with a rushing cold air. Anyone who was swept by her eyes stood up in an instant, held her breath, and listened quietly to military orders.

"He Luoluo, you will lead two thousand people to guard the Yunmen Ferry on the south bank of the Binshui River. If you encounter an enemy ship and your troops are all gone, you are not allowed to take a step back. If you can stop the enemy for two days, I will ask for you!"

He Luoluo's neck was covered with a cool air, blocking the enemy for two days, and never retreating. The danger was terrible if you think about it. He did not hesitate at all and said loudly: "Abide by the order!"

"Yuchi Xin, you will lead two thousand people to quietly leave the city at night. The horse does not stop and the saddle will not be disarmed. When encountering the Chu army vanguard, you can look for fighter opportunities. If you win a small victory, you will then defraud! "

"Abide by the order!"

"Li Chong, you must lead 5,000 people to arrive at Luzhuang in the northwest of Zhongmu County before dawn, and ambush in Gaogang on both sides. If you encounter Yuchi Xin's defeated soldiers, don't show up to meet them. After letting him go, then eat the pursuers of the Chu army!

"Abide by the order!"

"The Chu army failed in the first battle, and the situation is unknown, so they must not dare to advance rashly. You and the two of you work together to seize the time to set up camp in Luzhuang and wait for our main force to arrive."

Li Chong and Yuchi Xin clasped their fists at the same time and said, "Abide by the order!"

"Hoba Yun!"

"The veteran is here!"

"Please ask my uncle to stay at Jun Yi to support the food and grass, and look forward to our army's retreat!"

"Don't worry, just go to slaughter the island barbarians. I have me in charge of Junyi City, and you will have no worries!"

Yuan Mulan's eyes flashed over Dugu Ping, who was looking forward to it, and said:

"Fan Lishi!"

"I'm here!"

"Lou Mika!"

"I'm here!"

"You two follow me, and after dawn, the soldiers will be sent to Zhongmu!"

"Abide by the order!"

Dugu Ping was stunned and hurriedly said, "Mr. Military Commander, where is me?"

Yuan Mulan pretended to be pondering and said, "General Dugu was defeated by the Chu army last time. If he is not ready to fight again, he can stay in the city for a while..."

Dugu Ping's blood was surging, his lips were almost bitten, he drew his sword and cut off his robe, and said angrily: "Please give me three thousand people. If you don't have the first merit to defeat the enemy in this battle, you will die in front of the formation!"

"Okay!" The so-called "Advocate" is worse than agitating the generals. Dugu has always been brave and has the ambition to fight to the death, just like a sharp knife being unscathed, and he is invincible!

"I can't give you three thousand people, I only give you one thousand elite riders, you are so..."

It was midnight, and the stars hanged in the plains, and crows lived in the dead woods on the left side of the road, croaking constantly, adding a bit of desolation and distantness to this barren land.

The torch that stretched for dozens of miles appeared in the field of view, like an earth dragon covered in fire, winding towards the east, as if it could swallow everything in front of it.

The vanguard army led by Ming Jing was in charge. He stopped his horse and stopped beside the team, frowned. The eight scouts sent out should be rewarded every half an hour, but it has been delayed for half a quarter of an hour. The Cuiyu army was very strict and it could not be caused by laziness and scattering. So, could it be that they encountered the enemy?

However, two hours ago, I received information from Junyi. Yuan Mulan plundered the city and was rewarding the three armies with big wine and meat. Look at her intention, she wanted to wait for her to fight against the Chu army in Junyi, and she probably wouldn't take any risks.

Mingjing decided to wait a little longer.

At this moment, he heard the sound of horse hooves galloping in front of him, and soon there was a sequel to support the scout covered in blood. He was hit by five arrows, and the arrows penetrated his breastplate. His vitality should have been cut off. He had no idea what kind of will he use to insist on returning to the army.

"General... army, enemy... attack!"

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly died. Ming Jing drew his sword and said sternly: "Design the formation!"

After about a quarter of an hour, the land under his feet began to tremble slightly with a rumbling sound. The roar of evil ghosts sounded in the darkness, and countless arrows and poisonous snakes attacked. Fortunately, he received warning in advance. Mingjing's army set up a circular formation, and giant shields were erected on both sides, causing no major casualties, and the enemy was not willing to fight. Three rounds of arrows shot through, and then rushed forward. Seeing that the Chu army's formation was not chaotic, they turned around and left.

However, with such an enemy who came and went like the wind, it became too dangerous to march at night. Mingjing sent people to the rear to ask for instructions on whether to camp on the spot and continue to march until dawn.

After receiving a report from the rear, He Ru advised: "Yuan Mulan sent cavalry to disturb him to slow down the journey of the army. If the enemy wants us to do, then we must not do what the enemy wants us to do."

Xu You nodded and said, "Tell Mingjing, be careful and do not delay. The forward must occupy Zhongmu before dawn!"

Yuchi Xin used the cavalry to the extreme, sometimes on the left and sometimes on the right, which was elusive and destined to be invincible. He was not greedy for every battle. Regardless of whether he had any or not, he was about to leave at once, and he dragged the Chu army down.

However, after a series of battles, the Chu army also found out the details of the enemy. It was estimated that Yuchi Xin's troops were only two or three thousand. Xu You ordered Quan Changyi to lead his 5,000 cavalry to expel him. The command from the Joint Army Department gave Quan Changyi clearly and clearly. It was enough to drive away twenty miles away, and there was no need to chase him.

Who would have thought that as soon as the two sides fought, Yuchi Xin was defeated and led his troops to flee. Quan Changyi had wiped out Dugu Ping's troops at a price that was almost unharmed on the battlefield of the sash platform. Although he was humble and restrained on the surface, he was very disdainful of the combat effectiveness of the Wei army. This time he easily won the first move and suddenly had the idea of ​​making great contributions again. He ignored the military orders of the military command and followed him to chase him.

Anyway, the military order said that it was to drive away twenty miles away, and it was as dark as ink. How could it be distinguished between twenty miles or fifty miles? As long as the head of the enemy general was cut off, would it be possible to be punished for the great victory?

The cavalry was so fast that they chased each other and arrived at Luzhuang soon. Quan Changyi noticed that the Wei army was gradually slowing down, and it was obvious that the war horses could not run anymore. This was reasonable. The Wei army had bothered him for several hours, and neither the war horses nor the knights had a rest. He was raising his energy and judging the superiority and inferiority.

"Cool Horse"!

"Invincible!"

This was the slogan of the Western Liang horses when they charged forward. After surrendering to Chu, Xu You allowed them to keep it. Quan Changyi took the lead and rushed forward with his head and was about to feast on his feet, but suddenly rushed out of the wings with dense cavalry, with people and horses as if they were dragons, and they could not see at first sight.

"Get into the trap! Retreat, retreat quickly!"

Quan Changyi was shocked and pulled his horse back and was about to turn around. It was too late. He was instantly overwhelmed by the crowd. He barely killed several people. His heart was painful in his back. The horse spear came out of his chest and heard someone shouting in his ears:
