"Lord!" Qin Qiong came all the way from the smoke on a war horse, turned over and dismounted, and said respectfully.
"Why are you in such a hurry?" Li Xiang looked at Qin Qiong who came in a hurry and asked with a puzzled expression.
"My lord, Wanyan Agu has been hit." Qin Qiong replied solemnly.
"I know, invite him to the big tent!" Li Xiang waved his hand casually and said calmly.
Within the big tent.
As the master, Li Xiang sat on top of the throne with an indifferent expression. On the left, Wanyan Aguda and a group of Southern Xiongnu generals sat in sequence. On the right, there were Su Lie, Qin Qiong, and Zhao Yun, the generals of the Bingzhou Army.
"General Li, the Huns in southern China suffered heavy losses in yesterday's battle. They are no longer able to face Temujin's army alone. I wonder if the Bingzhou Army can fight with the Xiongnu in southern China in the future battles!" Wanyan Aguda said with a solemn expression.
Last time, although Wanyan Aguda used the sharp weapon Tiefutu, the result was not ideal.
Not long after Tiefutu came out to fight, Temujin took the initiative to withdraw his troops. Therefore, Tiefutu did not cause much damage to the Mongolian army at all. To say that the biggest gain from the battle of Tiefutu was that Wanyan Zongbi defeated the Mongols.
Army General Lan Tianxiang.
However, the Blue Sky Elephant is just entering the super first-class realm for the first time. Even Zhou Qing, the leader of Xue Rengui's command, can't defeat it, and it is nothing in today's world. It's just a blue sky elephant who has just entered the super first-class realm for the first time, and Temujin does not lack this blue sky elephant.
Therefore, even if Lan Tianxiang died in battle, it would not be considered a big loss to the Mongolian army.
On the contrary, the Southern Huns lost nearly 20,000 troops in this battle, but they could only defeat Temujin's 10,000 troops. From this, the gap between the Southern Huns and the Mongolian army can be imagined.
After this battle, the number of the Southern Huns' 100,000 troops dropped sharply to 80,000, while the number of Temujin's Mongolian troops also dropped to 130,000.
Since the beginning of the war, only Li Xiang's Bingzhou Army has suffered smaller losses. They only lost two thousand cavalry against Chi Laowen's vanguard army. In the subsequent battle, there was almost no loss, but Mu Hua was killed.
Li's nearly a thousand cavalry and horses.
"Wanyan Khan is joking, haven't your and our armies been working together to fight the enemy together?" Li Xiang did not answer Wanyan Aguda's words directly, but instead asked with a haha.
"General, why are you doing this? You should know what I mean." Wanyan Aguda said in a deep voice, "Although your and our armies work together, we are fighting separately. If it goes on for a long time, Temujin will defeat each of them, so why not next time?
How about a big battle in which your and our armies gather together to fight against the enemy Temujin?"
Through the last battle, Wanyan Aguda had figured out that Temujin was now focusing all his energy on the Southern Huns, and was simply trying to contain Li Xiang's Bingzhou Army.
I also have some understanding of Li Xiang's Wanyan Aguda car formation. If the Bingzhou Army has been huddled in such a spiny turtle shell, then Temujin is not a fool and will naturally not launch an attack easily. Temujin only
It is necessary to send out a force to contain the Bingzhou Army and prevent the Bingzhou Army from affecting other battlefields.
If this continues, the Southern Huns will have to fight against the Mongolian army alone again. Then what is the point of the Southern Huns paying a huge price to invite the Bingzhou Army for support? Just to contain a force of the Mongolian Army is definitely not worth Wanyan Agu's attack.
That price.
Therefore, Wanyan Aguda took action today. He had to make the Bingzhou Army and the Southern Huns Army truly face the Mongolian Army.
After a long silence, Li Xiang finally spoke again, "That's fine, then just follow the Khan's words, and our two armies can join forces in the next big battle."
During the war, the troops can be united in one place, but due to various considerations, the camp must be separated.
Moreover, if Li Xiang agreed to Wanyan Agu's fight, it was not that Li Xiang really wanted to help Wanyan Agu fight the war, but if the Bingzhou Army did not participate in the war, then Li Xiang was really afraid that the Southern Huns would be directly overthrown by Temujin. By then,
With the strength of the Bingzhou Army, it was impossible to face Temujin alone.
"Wanyan Khan, the elite of the Mongolian army have gathered here, and their territory must be empty. If our army sends a cavalry, march straight into the heart of the Mongolian army, burn the food and grass, the enemy's military morale will not be out of March.
If there is chaos, our army can take advantage of the victory to pursue and defeat the enemy in one fell swoop. I wonder what the Khan thinks?" From the right tent of the big tent, a scholar in white suddenly said.
"I don't know who sir is..." Wanyan Agu asked aloud.
"Khan, this is the case with my military advisor Xun Yu and Xun Ruo. I wonder if Khan thinks Wen Ruo's plan is feasible?"
"It's difficult, it's difficult! Temujin has annexed many small tribes on the grasslands in these years. Even some tribes in Xianbei were attacked by Temujin during the civil strife in Xianbei. In these years, Temujin can be said to be
The strength is greatly increased.
Although Temujin has mobilized an army of 150,000 troops this time, which seems to have gone all out, according to this Khan's guess, it will not be a problem for the Temujin clan to mobilize another 30,000 to 40,000 troops for defense." Wanyan Aguda said.
He looked ugly.
Li Xiang looked a little ugly when he heard this, and at the same time he was a little frightened.
Li Xiang never expected that in just a few years, Temujin would have developed to this level.
According to what Wanyan Aguda said, if Temujin really tried his best, he might be able to recruit 200,000 string control men.
On the contrary, the Southern Huns are now nothing more than embroidered pillows, and they have only raised a hundred thousand troops with all their strength.
In fact, the decline of the Southern Xiongnu to what it is today is inseparable from Li Xiang. In the Battle of Yanmen Pass when Li Xiang was just reborn, Li Xiang caused heavy losses to the Southern Xiongnu. There were piles of Southern Xiongnu under the walls of Yanmen Pass.
The bones of Xiongnu herdsmen.
In the past, when the Southern Huns were really unable to defeat them, they could forcibly recruit the old and weak from each tribe. But since the battle at Yanmen Pass, even if Wanyan Aguda wanted to continue to recruit old and weak from each tribe, there was absolutely nothing he could recruit.
Yes.
Wanyan Aguda can't recruit women and children from the tribe, they are the future of a tribe. Even if the Southern Huns were really at the end of their rope, Wanyan Aguda would never do this.
If all the women and children died, then even if the Southern Huns defeated Temujin, the Southern Huns would have no future.
Not long after the Battle of Yanmen Pass, the period of confrontation between the Southern Huns and Mongolia entered, so that Wanyan Aguda had no time to recover.
It can be said that Li Xiang played an indispensable role in bringing the Southern Xiongnu to where they are today.
