Huang Xu's sword skills include the family sword skills taught by his father Huang Zhong, and the sword skills refined by Zhao Yun based on the spear skills. The two sides are combined, and the sword skills include spear skills, which are like swords but not swords, like spears but not spears, and they change when dancing.
The theory of broadswords sometimes includes stabs and provocations. As soon as Yu Jin fought, he knew that the young man in front of him was not simple. He might not be able to beat him with his current martial arts skills. Huang Xuzhao went to Yu Jin's vital points to greet him, and Yu Jin was so busy that he had no idea of escape.
None. After finally getting rid of the knife, Huang Xu's knife came again before he could turn around.
Under the command of Lu Xun, the Thousand Guards Battalion was divided into four teams. The first team went straight forward to cooperate with Du Yu's descendants inside and outside. The two teams on the left and right were responsible for hijacking the Wei army coming down from the mountain. The fourth team served as a reserve team to respond at any time.
The raging fire grew stronger and stronger, illuminating the entire valley. You could feel the scorching air waves even a hundred steps away. Du Yu led his men to return with the bodyguards and began to disperse the soldiers who were still fighting the fire. On the top of both sides of the mountain
When the Wei army saw that the food and grass had been set on fire, some of them took the opportunity to escape into the back mountains.
Yu Jin was speechless. He had guarded so hard but failed in the end. He was a veteran of Cao Wei. How should he explain to Cao Cao for making such a mistake? Even if Sima Yi and Cao Cao didn't kill him, how could he have the face to live here anymore?
In the world. Thinking of this, the weapon in Yu Jin's hand suddenly stopped. Huang Xu saw the opportunity and slashed with his broadsword.
Dou Da's head flew into the sky, flying towards the fire with disheveled hair. Both Wei Jun and Long Jun could see it clearly. It seemed that time had stopped at that moment. Everyone's eyes were fixed on Yu Jin's head.
, little bits of blood fell from the sky and dripped onto the soldiers' faces, still carrying the slightest trace of body temperature.
Huang Xu reached out his hand to catch Yu Jin's head and held it up high: "If Yu Jin dies, the one who surrenders will avoid death!"
The Wei army no longer had fighting spirit. The general was killed in battle. The captain, captain, etc. did not dare to step forward. They all looked at Huang Xu holding Yu Jin's head high in the center of the battlefield. They didn't know whether they should surrender or fight! "Bang!" I don't know what it was.
Who dropped their weapons and knelt on the ground. Someone took the lead, and the Wei army completely lost their fighting spirit. They all dropped their weapons and knelt down to beg for surrender.
Huang Xu, Lu Xun, and Du Yu were all covered in blood, with only their white teeth and white eyes showing. Behind them, a thousand guardsmen stood with their heads held high. This battle was considered a complete victory. A thousand guardsmen died in the battle.
No, less than a hundred people were injured. However, the general of the Wei army died in the battle, and 500 of the 10,000 troops and horses were lost. A thousand people fled, and the rest surrendered. One hundred thousand loads of Wei army's food and grass were also burned. It was a brilliant victory.
Sima Yi was restless and always felt that Long Jun's silence was a bit strange. It had been half a month and there had been no movement at all. Could it be that Long Bin really had to wait for him and the others to starve to death before taking action. Sima Yi knew that he had recruited almost all the men in Wei State.
Millions of people were deployed on the banks of the Yellow River, and the daily cost was an astronomical figure. It can be said that the Wei State has spent all its efforts to maintain it. Even so, it will only last for two months at most. After two months, they will surrender without a fight.
chaos.
"Father! Father!" Sima Zhao hurried in, out of breath, pointing outside and speechless.
Sima Yi didn't wait for Sima Zhao to say anything, stood up and walked out the door. Just in the sky to the north, the lights were clearly visible. Sima Zhao followed him out and said: "Based on the distance, it should be near Makino!"
"Makino? How is this possible? What is Yu Jin trying to do?" Sima Yi had already realized that something was wrong, but he didn't want to believe it, so he asked again: "Has there been any movement along the river recently?"
Sima Zhao shook his head: "It seems that someone wanted to break through Puyang and Le'an a few days ago. They were noticed by our army. There was a small battle between the two sides. The Dragon Army killed a few of our soldiers and then retreated."
"It's broken! The Dragon Army has crossed the river!" Sima Yi stamped his feet and hurried back to the house, searching carefully on the map: "Look, here in Puyang, Le'an is far away from Neihuang and Gaotang, plus here
In the Muye area, these three places are where we store grain, and Long Fei is so ruthless, he can't wait for two months!"
On the second day, Makino sent news that the grain garrison was burned and the general died in the battle. On the third day, Neihuang sent news that the grain garrison was burned and General Li Dian was seriously injured. On the fourth day, Gaotang sent news that the garrison grain store was burned and General Li Dian was seriously injured.
The grain was burned, and General Le Jin was nowhere to be found.
Sima Yi sat down on the ground and kept muttering: "It's over, it's over! It's completely over! Without food and grass, the soldiers have no fighting spirit and will retreat without fighting!"
"Father, don't be discouraged. We still have millions of troops! As long as we stay on the bank of the Yellow River, Long Fei will never cross the river!" Sima Zhao was young and energetic. It can be said that he would not shed tears until he saw the coffin, and he would not give up even when he reached the Yellow River.
Huang Xu, Lu Xun, and Du Yu watched as Makino's food and grass turned into ashes bit by bit. The mission was successfully completed, and they could go back and hand in orders. However, with a thousand of them and nine thousand prisoners, not only was it dangerous, but it was also the biggest burden. Although Makino
They don't want to leave the Yellow River, but they have to cross millions of Wei troops. If one of the captives is dishonest, they will become the targets of the Wei troops.
Lu Xun suggested that these prisoners be released on the spot. Huang Xu refused, saying: "We are in danger now. If we let them go, they will report to Sima Yi that millions of people are surrounding us and a thousand of us will be captured easily. Even if we have to
We have to wait until we get to the bank of the Yellow River to release it."
What Huang Xu said makes sense, but it is indeed too dangerous to take these nine thousand prisoners. Du Yu suddenly said: "Since we have ten thousand people, why not continue to the north?"
This time not only Huang Xu was shocked, but even Lu Xun was shocked. Further north of Muye is Yecheng, which is the capital of Wei. Ten thousand soldiers and horses went to attack Yecheng. Isn't this a joke?
?
Du Yu smiled faintly: "Two generals, why are we burning Sima Yi's food and grass? Isn't it just to disturb the hearts of the people of Wei? In this case, what can be more frightening to the people of Wei than the troops approaching the capital of Wei?"
Huang Xu looked at Du Yu and nodded: "You are brave enough! Back in the day, Jiang DaDao went to Chang'an alone and captured Xiliang for His Majesty. If your plan was successful, you would have done much more than Jiang DaDao.
!”
"Then how can we get this Wei prisoner to go with us?" Lu Xun was thinking about practical issues.
Du Yu said: "The soldiers of the Wei State were forcibly recruited and did not fight for the Wei State. If the two generals agree, they will be the Dragon Army from now on and enjoy the same treatment as the Dragon Army.
If your family members are taken care of by the government, or they may be richly rewarded, they can settle down and live in peace. Your Majesty will occupy Hebei in the future, and these people will be the most important contributors. If you build monuments and biographies for them, I can convince them!"
"Everything else is easy to say. I'm afraid it's not appropriate to set up a monument and a biography!" Huang Xu said: "Your Majesty has never built a monument or biography for any of the troops. Even he himself has never carved his name on the stone!"
Lu Xun waved his hand: "Okay! It's settled, I'll take care of this matter, just let Yuan Kai go and do it!"
Du Yu was a native of Wei. He had served as the chief governor of the Wei State and knew the soldiers of the Wei State. Why were some people forced to serve as soldiers, and some were just to earn a living? The ultimate goal was to survive, and they did not expect this.
On the battlefield, he will not die under the enemy's sword. Du Yu is suitable to be a political commissar, this is what Long Fei said. He first talked about the hardships of the Wei State, and then the sweetness of the Tianlong Empire. Comparing the two sides, the good and the bad are determined.
Some of these soldiers' hometowns are in Yanzhou, Yuzhou, and Qingzhou, and they also understand the situation in their hometowns from a few words.
Du Yu said: "Brothers, the Wei State is engaged in military warfare and the people are in dire straits. If this continues, let alone the common people, we will all starve to death. However, those dignitaries who stay in Ye City are eating and drinking all day long and have concubines in groups.
But let us, who don’t have enough food and clothing, to die for them, why? Are they nobler than us just because they are born well? No! General Long said that everyone in the world is equal, and the common people are the world’s
Master! Since we are the masters, why can’t we take back what belongs to us?”
The nine thousand prisoners of the Wei army were so excited by what Du Yu said that they wanted to rush into Yecheng and kill all the dignitaries. Du Yu changed his tune: "Today, we, the soldiers of the Tianlong Empire, are going to attack Yecheng. If any of you want to
Go, you can sign up. As long as you sign up, you will be a soldier flying over the sky from this moment on. If you die in battle, the government will take care of you until you die. If you don't die in battle, the government will pay you military salary on a monthly basis. At the same time, it will also bring three years of income to your family.
Free of rent! If we win, then you will be the heroes of the empire. When His Majesty builds a monument here, your name will be on it! What an honor that is! Who wants to go?"
"I'm going! I'm going!" There were very few people who signed up at first, but gradually more and more people signed up. Lu Xun kept his promise and recorded everyone's name on a piece of silk and sent one person to Guandu.
There were a thousand people who were unwilling to go, but Lu Xun did not make things difficult for them and released them on the spot. This approach convinced those who guaranteed that Long Jun meant what he said.
Carrying the food that had not been burned, the nine thousand people entered Muye City. Although the people had a natural affinity for the soldiers, they still walked out of their homes when they saw the temptation of food. In the Yamen of Muye, Lu Xun's opponent
The soldiers under the command were adjusted, with a thousand guards and eight thousand captured soldiers. The eight hundred guards were taken out and each of them led ten men, and the remaining two hundred guards were taken as a whole. This can ensure the combat effectiveness of the captured soldiers.
It also provides strong support in the event of an accident.
It was only one day's journey from Muye to Yecheng. In order to give the illusion of a surprise attack on Yecheng, Lu Xun ordered to march day and night, making no noise wherever he passed. This was also to buy time for these new soldiers. They had no extra time and followed Muye.
Sima Yi must have known about the situation, and Yecheng must have seen it. In order to rush for time, Lu Xun ordered all the soldiers and horses to leave the city overnight. While walking, the new captain introduced the essentials of the battle. He hoped that when they arrived in Yecheng
Money, this group of soldiers can be of great use.
