Chapter 412: White Mountain (Daily Update 5/5)
"Zhang Liao went out to pursue the Xianbei people?"
When Gao Shun arrived at Yanmen Pass, Zhang Liao had led 10,000 wolf cavalry and 40,000 light cavalry out of the frontier, following the Xianbei cavalry in Budugen.
Xin Ping looked bad: "Zhang Liao went out of the frontier with light clothes and did not even carry the heavy armored cavalry used to rush forward. I'm afraid something will happen."
"Where did he go?"
“Bai Dengshan.”
"Soldiers, keep up!"
Gao Shun led the camp and heavy cavalry, and immediately followed Zhang Liao out of the frontier.
Behind Gaoshun, Qianzhao also arrived later.
He heard that Zhang Liao and Gao Shun had left the prisoner, so he handed over the prisoners left to Xin Ping for custody and then went out of the frontier.
The Lord has already killed him, and they cannot stay out of the matter.
"Oh, my great military advisor is going to be at the level of guarding prisoners."
Xin Ping found that he seemed too conservative as a military advisor.
The generals under Xu Tian’s command are more radical than the other.
Baideng Mountain, the Xianbei cavalry retreated here, all over the mountains.
"The Han army is determined not to chase after this place."
Bu Dugen promised to many Xianbei nobles that the Han army would not chase Baideng Mountain.
Many Xianbei cavalry camped near Baideng Mountain and began to count the spoils that had washed away Yanmen.
Behind the Xianbei people, Zhang Liao's 50,000 cavalry were approaching quickly.
With Zhang Liao's current command value, he provided bonuses to 50,000 cavalrymen and was easily promoted.
Perhaps it was influenced by Xu Tian or Zhang Liao's instinct that made Zhang Liao keen on raiding this kind of risky attack.
"General, the scout cavalry of the Xianbei people were found in front of him!"
"It seems that the Xianbei people are right in front of you."
Zhang Liao's face was solemn.
Budugen's Xianbei cavalry may have hundreds of thousands or millions, while he only has fifty thousand cavalry.
"Camp on the spot, you follow me to investigate."
Zhang Liao only took a few deputy generals to risk investigating the reality of the Xianbei army.
Zhang Liao is no longer the Mayi boy who was chased by the Xianbei 1000 men. If he is qualified to be a general who has the wrestle of the wrench.
Zhang Liao had confidence in his own force, and even if he was surrounded by tens of thousands of Xianbei cavalry, he could escape unscathed.
Baideng Mountain is located in Pingcheng area in the northern part of Yanmen County. The famous Baideng siege once took place.
Emperor Gaozu of Han, Liu Bang, was besieged here for seven days and seven nights by the Huns Maodun Shanyu. Later, Liu Bang used the strategy of his adviser Chen Ping to bribe Maodun Shanyu's concubine and blew the pillow wind. The Huns untied the siege by themselves.
Zhang Liao climbed Baideng Mountain, and heavy snow fell from the sky. Xianbei cavalry returned with trophy and were full of food and grass. They didn't have to worry about the winter food.
It is precisely because these spoils cannot be abandoned that the Xianbei cavalry, who is famous for their rapid action, was caught up by Zhang Liao.
The more greedy you are, the more likely you are to reveal flaws.
"Heavy snow will interfere with the vision of the Xianbei people and make them ignore the dangers around them."
Zhang Liao had already appeared in Baideng Mountain, but the Xianbei people still did not notice that Zhang Liao, the killing god, was approaching.
"General, it's too difficult for us to attack dozens of times the enemy for 50,000 people."
"The Xianbei Shanyu Budugen is likely to be at the foot of Baideng Mountain, and there are at least dozens of ten thousand men and hundreds of thousands of men and women around you..."
The deputy general who followed Zhang Liao to investigate was inferred that the risk of raiding Budugen was extremely high.
The Xianbei did not have decent famous generals, but with more people, a group of Xianbei generals with force between 60 and 80 joined forces, and the battle formation of the Xianbei people was still a bit tricky.
Zhang Liao looked down at the Xianbei camp below from Baideng Mountain, and it stretched endlessly and could not see the end.
If you can find the position of the step root, the success rate of the raid can be improved.
However, it is not easy to find Budugen's camp in the Xianbei people's camps all over the mountains?
The daughter of the Yanmen County Fortress owner who was taken in by Zhang Liao also believed that it was a bit reluctant to defeat Bu Dugen with 50,000 people.
Almost all the young and strong people in the Budugen tribe gathered here, with a large number of people.
Many ants can even bite the elephant to death.
Zhang Liao was also evaluating the plan to raid the Xianbei cavalry, but what he calculated was not the success rate, it was not what he was considering.
He was considering the timing of launching a raid.
"According to Gao Shun, Qianzhao, Zhang Yan and his team's march progress and speed, the first person to meet was Gao Shun. The time to arrive at Bai Dengshan was the morning of the next day."
Zhang Liao has calculated the opportunity to win.
"Since the general has made up his mind, we will obey the order."
Although Zhang Liao's deputy generals thought that the risks were very high, once the main general made a decision, they would never be timid and dared to go up and fight to the death.
“It’s time for us to go back.”
This time Zhang Liao is truly independent.
During the Battle of Zanhuangshan, Zhang Liao and Jia Xu served as military advisors, weakening the Black Mountain Army, and then Zhang Liao launched a raid.
This time, Zhang Liao led his troops alone.
"Maybe you die, do you want to participate in the raid? Is there a name?"
Zhang Liao asked the daughter of the fortress master and directly used it as a deputy general.
"Li Xiu, whose courtesy name is Shuxian."
"I haven't heard of it."
Zhang Liao was very straightforward and had no impression of this name.
There are many powerful people in Bingzhou, and Zhang Liao really doesn't know the name of any powerful daughter.
Li Xiu curled her lips, very dissatisfied with Zhang Liao's ignorance of her.
But now it is not the time when children are in love. Li Xiu replied: "I have the power to fight and I am willing to follow the general to kill the enemy!"
"Very good. Since you are joining the army to fight, you must be prepared to wrap your body in the horse leather."
Zhang Liao knew that she had some strength, otherwise she would not have allowed a burden to join her army.
Ten thousand wolf cavalry and forty thousand light cavalry keep a certain distance from the Xianbei cavalry to accumulate strength.
In order not to be noticed by the Xianbei people, Zhang Liao's cavalry did not raise a bonfire, but only used tents and clothes to avoid the cold.
The Xianbei people didn't know that the danger was approaching, the heavy snow was getting heavier and the north wind was howling.
The bad weather made the Xianbei people more sure that one thing was that the Han army would not pursue them in such bad weather.
"Can you really defeat the powerful enemies who repeatedly invaded Yanmen County?"
Li Xiu was a little worried.
The Xianbei invaded Yanmen County repeatedly, and if they could kill the Xianbei Shanyu, it would be the best.
If it fails, the Xianbei cavalry will invade Yanmen even more unscrupulously.
Li Xiu, who was unable to sleep, left the tent, and the snow outside was already three inches deep.
Except for the patrolling Wolf Cavalry team, all other cavalrymen hid in the tent to rest, maintaining morale and physical strength.
The chief general Zhang Liao is still inspecting various cavalry teams to ensure that they maintain a high state.
"Why do you want to join the army?"
When Zhang Liao saw Li Xiu coming, he started chatting while patrolling the battalions.
"The Xianbei people repeatedly invaded Yanmen, and many people in our family died under the sabers and bows of the Xianbei people."
Li Xiu was very angry.
Zhang Liao can empathize with it because Zhang Liao is also from Yanmen and has experienced a lot of frontier wars since childhood.
