Chapter 409
Dong Zhuo led a large army to advance into Jiluo Mountain, and fought and retreated with the company. He kept luring Dong Zhuo into an ambush circle. With a horn, the ambush troops came out together. Even the long-lost Red Ridge appeared. More than 20,000 cavalry generals Dong Zhuo surrounded the middle. {wx}
The trumpets rise and fall one after another, and the battle flags cover the clouds and the sun.
The Han soldiers couldn't help but lose their lust and were a little panicked for a moment.
Dong Zhuo was not nervous at all and ordered the formation to be set up. The messenger immediately passed his orders out. The powerful sound of war drums sounded, overshadowing the sound of the Xianbei horns and comforting the mood of the Han soldiers. Under the command of the war drums, the Han army took action and pushed out the Wugang chariots and connected them to form a defensive formation. Infantry, crossbowmen, and cavalry entered the combat position one after another, ready for battle.
The war is about to break out.
Holding his fat belly, Dong Zhuo struggled to board the Central Army General Platform, which had just been built with a Wugang car, and checked the surrounding situation. The surrounding hillsides were crowded with people, all over the mountains and fields, and people were cheering and shouting, making people dare not take it lightly. The Han army surrounded by the valley looked like a small boat in the vast ocean, as if only a charge of the Xianbei people could overturn them.
But Dong Zhuo was not worried. He knew very well that he was not Helian’s real target, he was at best a bait. Before the real big fish was hooked, Helian would not swallow his bait, otherwise he would not be able to reach Jiluo Mountain at all.
Dong Zhuo ordered all his strength to defend. Even though he knew that Helian would not do his best, he could not let Helian take advantage. Helian regarded him as bait, but he wanted to be an angler and use himself as bait. Helian was nailed to death here. For this purpose, he must minimize casualties, especially the casualties of cavalry, so that he had enough strength when counterattacking.
Seeing Dong Zhuo's hiding in the middle, he showed a rare smile. It was a rare record for luring the Grand Marshal of the Han Dynasty into the encirclement. No matter whether it was the destiny of the Qianluo or the Lu Ri deduction, he would not dare to look down on him as before. When Murong Feng saw this scene, he would be impressed by his clever plan. Judging from the official rank of the trapped general, even when Tan Shihuai was alive, he did not have such a brilliant record.
He Lian ordered an attack. He must severely attack Dong Zhuo and force Dong Zhuo to ask for help from Liu Bian in order to lure Liu Bian, the real dragon, into the ambush circle.
With a command, the Xianbei people fired thousands of arrows at once, covering the clouds and the sun. The sky was dark.
Dong Zhuo was not afraid at all. He ordered all soldiers to defend according to the formation and used strong bows and crossbows to counterattack. Although the terrain was not good for the Han army, in terms of position attack and defense, and in terms of bows and crossbows, how could the Xianbei people be the opponents of the Han army?
For a moment, the two sides fought hard to distinguish.
He Lian raised his head, opened his arms, looked at the blue sky, and showed a heartfelt smile.
There is no cloud, and the sky is as clear as a washing.
...
Jiluo Mountain is more than 300 miles south of Yanze.
Yang Feng raised his spear and whistled fiercely: "Kill——"
"Kill--" Five thousand elites galloped on horseback, with a spear in their hands and a sharp arrow in their strings, and rushed towards the panicked Xianbei people.
The Qiang people invaded the border, Liangzhou was desolate for a long time, and there were only less than a thousand people left in the vassal state of Juyan, all of whom were huddled in Juyan City and did not dare to step out of the city. Outside the city, it became a pasture for the Xianbei people, and the zhemu forest was even more forbidden by the Xianbei people, and the Han people were not allowed to get involved. Once caught by the Xianbei people, they would be slaves at the least, and they would be killed on the spot.
For decades, the Xianbei people have become accustomed to it, and no one expected that more than 5,000 Han elite cavalry would suddenly appear here.
It collapses at once.
Five thousand elite cavalry chased and died in the north, and they were filled with joy.
Next to the bodies of the Xianbei people, Yang Feng ordered the soldiers to slaughter cattle and sheep, have a full meal, and add supplies and war horses to the Han people in Juyan City and take all the remaining supplies into Juyan City. After hearing this news, Juyan City was filled with joy.
After a night of rest, Yang Feng led five thousand elite cavalry and continued to chase and kill the Xianbei people under the guidance of two arrogant and brave men.
On the way, Yang Feng met Dong Bai, who was guarded by three hundred dragon cavalry.
Dong Bai passed on Liu Bian's order to Yang Feng, not caring about the war in Jiluoshan, and continuing along the border of Liangzhou to sweep the pastures of various Xianbei tribes in the western region. Their main force is now besieging Dong Zhuo in Jiluoshan, and the remaining tribes are all women, children, elderly and weak, which is a good time to take advantage of the situation.
Yang Feng immediately understood what Liu Bian meant and couldn't help but be overjoyed. Although he did not participate in the war last year, he knew very well about the war. He regretted that he could not participate in it at that time. Although he was born in the Yellow Turban, Yang Feng was no different from an ordinary Han man in terms of hatred for the Xianbei people.
He didn't expect that he would receive compensation so soon, and with him as the main force, the emperor Liu Bian and the Grand Marshal Dong Zhuo both became supporting roles, attracting the main force of Xianbei people. Yang Feng was extremely grateful and invited Dong Bai to accompany him. Dong Bai was originally Dong Zhuo's granddaughter. When he saw the big eagle and the three hundred dragon cavalry beside Dong Bai, Yang Feng knew that Dong Bai had another identity, so he would naturally not be reluctant to part of Dong Bai's contribution.
As the fake wolf cavalry governor, Dong Bai inexplicably became the deputy general of these five thousand elite cavalry.
Five thousand elite cavalry, like five thousand ferocious hungry wolves, rushed around the grasslands of the Xianbei in the west, killing wantonly.
...
Ji Luoshan, the attacks for several consecutive days were so fierce and even tragic.
He Lian wanted to severely attack Dong Zhuo and forced Dong Zhuo to ask for help from Liu Bian, but Dong Zhuo refused to show his weakness and built a series of formations after formation and counterattacked tenaciously. The two sides fought fiercely for several days, with casualties, especially the Xianbei people. This kind of positional offensive and defensive battle was not their strengths, and the Xianbei people who had been dismounted were not the opponents of the Han army's infantry at all. If they wanted to break through the first level of defense of the Han army, they would have to pay an astonishing price.
Luo Zhiluo and Lu Ri were a little impatient, and they came to Helian to change his tactics and eat Dong Zhuo's troops in one breath, so as not to delay for a long time and suffer too much loss.
He Lian was silent for a long time.
He was also a little uneasy, but he didn't dare to look on his face.
He always felt that Liu Bian was nearby, but after a few days of fierce fighting, Liu Bian did not appear for a long time, and even the big eagle did not show up. Where did Liu Bian go? Did he calculate wrongly that he was not there at all?
It is not his goal to engage in a positional offensive and defensive battle with Dong Zhuo. His goal is to lure Liu Bian to rescue him. The ambush he arranged was prepared for Liu Bian. If Liu Bian could not come, what is the point of killing Dong Zhuo? What's more, it is not easy to kill Dong Zhuo. The positional offensive and defensive battle is the strength of the Han army, not the strength of the Xianbei people.
Where is Liu Bian?
Just as he was thinking hard with Lian, a tribe's little coach rushed in, sweating profusely and his eyes were frightened.
"The Han army appeared in Juyanze."
"What?" Luo Zhi Jian Luoluo jumped up suddenly. His garrison was closest to Juyanze. If the Han army appeared there, his tribe might be attacked. The main force of the Red Ridge tribe was all in Jiluo Mountain, and the old, weak, women and children left behind in the tribe were definitely not opponents.
"How is that possible?" He Lian was also surprised. He knew this little coach, and he arranged to go to Juyanze to get arrows. The consumption of these heavenly arrows was too high, so he had to supplement them. The most important source of wood for the Xianbei people to make arrow shafts in Juyanze. If it was destroyed by the Han people, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"I'm right. The tribes near Juyanze were killed, and all the cattle, sheep, and arrow shafts were also stolen by the Han people. The leading general surname was Yang, and they also had a big eagle..."
A chill rose from Helian's back. Big Eagle? Liu Bian went to Juyanze? No wonder he had never shown up and let Dong Zhuo hold on here. No wonder Dong Zhuo had never planned to break the siege, and seemed to be fighting the final battle with him. It turned out that Liu Bian was not here at all. He wanted to avoid the real and go to the false as last year, and to sweep the western Xianbei like last year.
He Lian's face was pale. He always wanted to be a fisherman, but he didn't expect that Liu Bian was not fooled by him at all, and Ji Luoshan was never Liu Bian's target. When he fought Dong Zhuo in Ji Luoshan, Liu Bian had already penetrated into the Xianbei in the West and began his best tactics.
Wait. He Lian suddenly shivered. Liu Bian brought three thousand spirits to the Hanshan Mountain, and now there are only more than three hundred riders heading west. Where are the remaining people and what are you going to do?
He Lian thought hard and calculated repeatedly, but couldn't wait. He rushed out of the tent, gathered his subordinates, and prepared to leave Jiluo Mountain and go straight to his pasture land. He Lian chased him out in person and persuaded him with great thoughts, but Luo Zhiluo was not willing to listen, pushed Helian away and left. When he waved his hand, he happened to sweep Helian's cheek. Others looked like he slapped Helian in the face.
He Lian's face turned pale and his heart continued to sink. The prestige he had just established was slapped by the intentional or unintentional slap of the Jin Luoluo, and his imagination of the grand career was also shattered.
These people are not people who can accomplish great things. I will never succeed when I am with them.
After Luo Jianluo left, people were in panic. The generals of various tribes were worried that their tribe would be wiped out by Liu Bian, so they no longer had the intention to besiege Dong Zhuo here, and they left one after another. Some even came to say goodbye to Helian, while others simply left without saying goodbye.
Overnight, 20,000 Xianbei troops scattered like birds and beasts, leaving only the subordinates of Lu Ri Descendant and Helian.
At dawn, He Lian jumped on his mount and smiled at the depressed Lu Ri Deduction. "The strength of the Red Ri tribe is greatly damaged. It cannot be your opponent anymore, and it cannot block my way. I am leaving. Take care of yourself. If you have the will to go west, you can go to me."
Lu Ri Describing looked at He Lian with complicated eyes. He knew very well that although He Lian had miscalculated again, it was just because his opponent was too strong, not because he was incompetent. When He Lian left, would they be Liu Bian's opponent? Maybe one day in the future, he would move west like He Lian and avoid the blades of the Han people from afar. It is a good choice to maintain a good relationship with He Lian.
"Where are you going?"
