Six hundred and ninetieth chapters plow court sweeping holes
"Order the Inhuman Army to pursue freely! Release the mission of containing prisoners!"
"promise!"
"Dingyuan, Zhaorong led his troops to pursue him. Gao Shun fell into the battlefield and cleaned up the battlefield. Our troops came to the center to support him."
"promise!"
Fang Zhiwen issued an order for a full-scale pursuit, and this is how the cavalry's combat is. When the enemy collapses, endless pursuit follows until the last enemy is killed or all surrenders!
Standing on the fence of the camp, the players who witnessed the entire battle were so happy that they were satisfied. The players in Gaoshun's troops had even experienced the battle. Now that Gaoshun's troops stopped pursuing, these players can also choose to end the military mission and regain the pursuit or captive mission.
So the players gathered to the secretary, hand in tasks and tasks. Then, teams of players formed a team of players to go out of the barracks and chased the Xianbei cavalry that fled everywhere. Some people rushed towards the camps thrown by the Xianbei people, where there were combat supplies from the Xianbei people and cattle and sheep as food!
Fang Zhiwen sat on the war horse with an iron bow. The guards around him did not dare to relax at all. They looked around with vigilance and cleaned up all the dead on the way Fang Zhiwen was walking again. Now on the battlefield, who knows if there will be enemies pretending to be dead and hiding somewhere to try to ambush their lords and other generals!
Xu Shu silently wiped the sweat from his forehead, watching the guards conducting a vigilant search, and carefully recorded the details of these battles.
"Yuanzhi, congratulations. The first time I commanded a large-scale battle was so successful!"
Fang Zhiwen said with a smile, but his eyes searched around, as if looking for prey.
"Haha, it's all the credit of the adults and soldiers. My subordinates are just talking!"
"Haha, the wise man is working hard! Yuan Zhi doesn't have to be too humble. The command this time is very meticulous. The whole battle is like a sophisticated machine, which looks really pleasing to the eye. I have seen Yi Ren's large-scale battle command before. It seems that they are in this style, but they are not as light as Yuan Zhi!"
Fang Zhiwen narrowed his eyes and looked at the sky as if he was recalling something. Shaoqing grinned and shook his head gently.
"Sir, Yi Ren's battle is more refined. I have also learned some in the Xilin Academy. The key point of this kind of command lies in the number of lower-level generals. If it were not for the number of high-level generals in our army, it would be difficult to achieve this command effect."
"Well, that's true, so our army should firmly follow the strategy of focusing on the essence but not the amount of energy to manage the army. Try to reduce combat losses so as to cultivate more grassroots generals."
"Sir, right!"
"Haha, we slowly wander upwards. I guess they will block some of the Xianbei people there and let the clerks left behind in the camp be responsible for the camp's affairs. They will use the camp as a transit place for Yiren."
"Abide by the order!"
"Where have Zilong and Zheluo been?"
"The two generals set out last night as planned. Zheluo should now be near the source of Zuoleshui. General Zhao Yun may be moving eastward under the Xianbei Mountains further north."
"Good, everything is planned, go!"
In the evening, Fang Zhiwen and his party arrived at the upper reaches of Zuoleshui, about 150 miles away from the mouth of the river where they originally camped. A lot of surrendered soldiers were conquered along the way. The troops originally had 4,000 troops, but these surrendered soldiers had no war horses and weapons, and they followed the cavalry slowly in dejectedly.
Zhen Xiang and Taishi Zhaorong indeed blocked a large number of Xianbei defeated troops in this shallow area. After a not-so-hard hunting, more than 20,000 Xianbei soldiers surrendered, while Zhen Xiang and Taishi Zhaorong were camping here.
Soon after, players filled with large and small bags from all directions also appeared one after another, and the last one arrived was Gao Shun, who was responsible for the tail sweep.
"I will carefully calculate the results of today. In the morning battle, the enemy entered the battlefield in total 220,000 cavalry. Our army killed about 40,000 enemy troops in the subsequent battle. This number is slightly conservative, but it will not be much different. In the subsequent pursuit battle, about 10,000 cavalry were killed directly, about 10,000 prisoners and chased them on the road, about 20,000 surrendered here, totaling 55,000 to 60,000 enemy troops were killed, and 25,000 to 30,000 were captured. Now there are still strange people who are fighting prisoners, so the number is not accurate. The total number is about 210,000 enemy troops. According to the information of the scout cavalry, they have already fled in all directions. It is not appropriate for us to pursue them in a dispersed manner. So I suggest that we advance directly to Suli's old nest and strive to win the Suli's Xianbei in one fell swoop!"
Fang Zhiwen and others looked at the map. Fang Zhiwen nodded: "It's possible, let's do it. After a little rest, I will lead the guards and Zhaorong, Dingyuan and two horses, chasing north overnight, trying to attack or force the landing of Suli's troops before the defeat. The back team will be led by Gao Shun and followed slowly."
"promise!"
"Sir, where are the subordinates?"
Fang Zhiwen looked at Xu Shu's tired face and hesitated for a moment and said, "If Yuan Zhi thinks it is OK, just follow us. If your body can't bear it, follow Gao Shun all the way, what?"
"I'd better follow the adults. Although I'm a little tired, I won't be able to march yet, and I haven't participated in the war!"
"Haha, you are the military advisor, we are the soldiers, we each perform our duties!"
Fang Zhiwen smiled and patted Xu Shu on the shoulder hard, making Xu Shu tilt his body, and bared his teeth in pain, so he hurriedly hid away.
...................................................................................
No matter how fast Fang Zhiwen is, it cannot be faster than the flying eagles of the Xianbei people. However, although the Xianbei people are nomadic people, their moving speed has not yet reached the level comparable to that of light cavalry.
However, Fang Zhiwen's troops are now less than 25,000. Even if the Suli troops have lost their elite troops, even if the troops fighting south have not returned to their hometowns, there are still 400,000 or 500,000 troops in the camp, and more than 100,000 string control men are still available. If they really have the determination to fight to the end, they can still cause serious damage to Fang Zhiwen's troops. Therefore, although Fang Zhiwen is pursuing fiercely, his purpose is to drive away the Xianbei people, eventually lead to their collapse, or oppress the Xianbei people to surrender.
Of course, another purpose is to catch up with the Xianbei cavalry who are fleeing back, annihilate or surrender them.
The Xianbei people naturally did not dare to stop for a moment, and wanted to run back home directly, but their war horses had to stop and rest. Then they discovered an important problem, that is, they had no food and grass! When they ran away, all the cattle and sheep that were food and grass were thrown into the camp.
The war horses can still eat fresh weeds all over the mountains, but people can't eat this thing. As a result, the war horses have rested, but their physical strength has become weaker. Although it can catch some snakes, rats, dig some wild vegetables to satisfy their hunger, the thing is not food after all, and it is not enough to fill these 20,000 to 30,000 soldiers.
On the next day, Fang Zhiwen, who was chasing one man and two horses overnight, followed the traces of the defeated soldiers and caught up with the remaining soldiers of the Suli tribe. If the tribe that was beaten the most in this battle, it must be the Suli tribe. If this matter was placed in the Central Plains, the members of these Suli tribes would definitely hate Fang Zhiwen to death, but it was different on the grassland.
The rule of the rule of the strong prey on the weak is followed on the grassland, so the Han people should not always say that the Hu people are cruel, because they are not only cruel to the Han people, but also to other nomadic peoples. Similarly, when the Han people completely defeat them, they also recognize the principle of the strong prey on the weak. Therefore, they do not hate Fang Zhiwen more, but are more afraid of Fang Zhiwen.
When these Xianbei people, who were almost exhausted, saw Fang Zhiwen's grimace flag, only a few loyal people dared to fight. When these loyal people were shot to death from afar, these weak Xianbei people completely surrendered under the leadership of the general.
Xu Shu was also worried about how to deal with these prisoners. He couldn't take these prisoners to capture Suli's people!?
However, Fang Zhiwen directly dispersed these troops and used his own guard as the backbone, and really planned to use these surrendered troops to capture their relatives. This is OK?!
In fact, Xu Shu did not understand the habits of the Hu tribe on the grassland, so of course it is OK. Moreover, Fang Zhiwen's trust can win their loyalty. More importantly, after turning the gun, they not only have to protect their relatives, but also get rewards. This is a practice on the grassland!
After a full meal, these recruited troops followed Fang Zhiwen on the road. With these leading parties, Fang Zhiwen easily appeared outside Suli's camp. Fang Zhiwen was not in a hurry to attack. Instead, after forming a military formation, he sent a surrendered general to surrender to Suli's younger brother Cheng Lugui in the camp.
Cheng Lugui is not very old, he is only in his early twenties, but he is already extremely brave. He did not follow him when he went south this time, and was left at home to take charge of affairs. Perhaps Suli had a bad premonition about his trip to south this time.
Cheng Lugui summoned the elders of the clan and wanted to discuss ways to deal with Fang Zhiwen, but most of the elders advocated surrender. This has to praise Shi A and Zhen Jiang for their good work and being able to penetrate Miyun's policies into such remote areas. These clan elders are vested interests. Although it is good to be a grass-headed king on the grassland, the reality no longer allows it now. The powerful enemy is right at home, and their elite troops have completely collapsed and surrendered. In this case, choosing to retain their existing wealth and go to the Han Dynasty like the Flower World to be a rich man.
Those who really dare to fight to the death are those young men with strong spirits, such as Cheng Lugui!
So, the tough Cheng Lugui was cut off his young head on the spot and presented it to Fang Zhiwen as a letter of fame!
On that day, the big flag above Suli Camp fell and replaced it with a black grimace flag. This camp became the northernmost Dahan camp in Youzhou. Fang Zhiwen did not intend to destroy this camp, but planned to build a city here, hoping to exist as a border landmark, which marked that this place was the territory of the Dahan...)
