Chapter 115 Stealing the Camp
Chapter 115: Stealing Camp
"Sa~"
The cold light flashed, and the last wolf-toothed arrow fell from the sky and pierced into the eyes of a Xianbei war horse. The Xianbei war horse raised its head and neighed, and fell to the ground in desolately. At this point, there were no people or horses standing on the entire battlefield. The bleak north wind blew across the battlefield, rolling up the wind and sand in the sky, and a strong smell of blood drifted in the air~~
Looking around, the battlefield was full of corpses of people and horses, three thousand cavalrymen, and less than five hundred cavalry could escape back to their formation with Bu Dugen.
"Hey!" Kuitou punched the shaft hard and cursed, "These cunning Han people will be destroyed by breaking the mountain pass and then they will be destroyed by the hatred in my heart~~"
Tuoba Jiefan, the young leader of the Tuoba tribe, looked at the sky gradually getting dark and suggested: "King, it's going to be dark today, and the cavalry is not conducive to night battles. Why not stop the troops for the time being and wait for the decisive battle tomorrow?"
"Um~" Kuitou nodded and said in a deep voice, "Send an order to retreat ten miles to camp."
Han army camp, at the gate.
Ma Yue quietly breathed a sigh of relief and looked back. The last trace of sunset was slowly retreating from the horizon, and the sky was already vast. The first battle was finally won, and it was a complete victory! However, the war had just begun, and there would be a fierce battle tomorrow. Ma Yue would never naively think that the Xianbei people would retreat after losing more than 3,000 cavalry.
The reason why the Xianbei people were so easy to win today is because they were not familiar with the tactics of the Han army, so they were caught off guard. But tomorrow, things will become completely different! Although the heavy armored iron cavalry is unmatched and the Xianbei people are difficult to resist, they are too small after all, and they seem so insignificant in front of a total of 30,000 Xianbei troops. Tactics such as traps and ambush can only be used once. The second time may not be effective!
Pei Yuanshao suddenly suggested: "Boqi, should you go to steal the camp while the night?"
"Hmm!" Ma Yue's heart suddenly moved and he said slowly, "Stealing camp?"
...
Luoyang, the living room of the General's Mansion.
"This is a white tiger skin, a rare treasure in the world, and it is very difficult to find. When my general heard that the general had a chronic leg disease, he was quite afraid of the severe winter. He specially led 300 iron cavalry to travel thousands of miles and robbed them from the wilderness in the northern desert to offer them for the general to keep the cold."
After Jia Xu said that, he solemnly handed a complete white tiger skin to Xu You.
Xu You reached out to take it, and a greedy look swept through the depths of his eyes, and said lukewarmly: "Ma Fubo presented such a tribute, probably because he wanted to ask General? I am really embarrassed. Old Master He was sick and was not in good health. The general was very filial to his parents and had already accompanied the old master to return to his hometown."
"Where is the sir?" Jia Xu said without changing his face, "If it weren't for the general's support, how could my general be so kind today, I would not be respectful."
Xu You touched the goatee's beard under his chin and said calmly: "Today, the court will discuss that the 97 court officials, including the Grand Tutor Yuan Feng, Grand Tutor Yuan Wei, and Situ Huang Wan, jointly report to the emperor. He intends to dismiss Ma Fubo's military post. Isn't it for this? "
Jia Xu's heart sank, thinking that although this guy is not good-looking, he speaks sharply and has clear ideas. He is a powerful character! Thinking of this, Jia Xu sorted out his thoughts a little, and fought back lukewarmly: "Mr. Xu You thinks that with the general's current situation, can he still control the government? If my general wants to protect himself, why not ask Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong and others for the sake of the general alone?"
“This ~~”
Xu You was hit by Jia Xu's words and was speechless.
In fact, 97 court officials including Yuan Feng, Yuan Wei, Huang Wan jointly submitted a report. The officials who wanted to stop Ma Yue had already caused shock to the court and the country. Even the eunuchs were still watching the changes and did not want to interfere in this matter. He Jin was even more like walking on thin ice and did not dare to get involved easily! He heard that Ma Yue condemned Jia Xu's visit, He Jin avoided him, wanting Xu You to block it.
Seeing Xu You being shocked by his words, Jia Xu struck while the iron was hot and continued: "My general was born in the Yellow Turbans and was once a bandit. When he was fighting in Nanyang, Yingchuan and the capital, he burned, killed and robbed local gentry and gentry. He had long been despised by the gentry all over the world, and he had no hope of returning to the Central Plains in this life."
Guo Tu was moved when he heard this. Jia Xu's words were true. Although Ma Yue's actions in the Central Plains had great martial arts, they also disappointed the hearts of the gentry in the world! Even if Ma Yue had the intention of being an unjust and had a tiger and wolf army to support him, it would be extremely difficult to enter the Central Plains.
Seeing Xu You seem to be intentional, Jia Xu continued, "My general's intention is to collect the Wuhuan people and compete for the desert. If it is not necessary, he will never want to get involved in the disputes in the Central Plains in this life. Even if the imperial court has given up my general position, it has nothing to do with the overall situation. At worst, my general leads people north of the frontier, where can't we settle down in the desert thousands of miles away? But~~"
Xu You browed and asked, "But how?"
Jia Xu smiled faintly and replied: "However, Dong Zhuo of Xiliang is a tiger and wolf, and the support of the gentry clans is that even if one day he can be punished and eliminated the eunuch party and eliminated the central examination, it will be a hidden danger, and the general's life is worrying."
"Um~"
Xu You was shocked when he heard this. If Ma Yue was really dismissed from office by the court and fled into the desert from then on, it would also mean that Xu You's plan to borrow foreign troops to kill the eunuch party would have completely miscarried! When the time was set, Xu You booked Dong Zhuo. Ma Yue's two foreign soldiers thought that the checks and balances were checks and balances. Once Ma Yue escaped from the desert, Dong Zhuo would definitely try to replace He Jin without being left behind.
Moreover, Jia Xu's words just now pointed out that compared with the powerful people in various places, Ma Yue is the most suitable foreign military for He Jin to use, because Ma Yue cannot win the hearts of the gentry in the world, and it is difficult for him to gain a foothold in the Central Plains. Even without Dong Zhuo's checks and balances, Ma Yue cannot replace He Jin.
"Brother Wenhe doesn't know anything. The situation in Luoyang is very complicated now." Xu You's face slowed down and he said sincerely, "Even if the general wants to save him, he is still powerless to return the gods."
...
Alashan Pass, Han army camp.
Ma Yue was wearing heavy armor and walked slowly through the formation. The crisp sound of iron hooves shattered the silence of the dark night. The soldiers' eyes turned as the horses advanced. Under the red light, the iron armor on Ma Yue's body reflected a dark red reflection, as if the fire of hell was burning on his body~~
“Hululu~”
The horse under Ma Yue's crotch made a heavy noise and finally stopped at the far left side of the array.
"Clam~~"
