Chapter 480: Alluring the City and Solving Mysteries (Part 1)
In the recent sweep of the Hetao cavalry, Hetao not only massacred millions of Mandan people, but also looted all their food. Most of the stolen food was hoarded in the southern camp. According to the mystery
It is estimated that the four armies on the southern front have nearly 300,000 troops, and they will have no worries about food and grass for at least half a year.
As for the Baijing Mandan, naturally it cannot collect food locally like the Hetao. All food must be transported from the country. All the more than 100,000 cavalry in the Hetao are roaming in the three states of Xuan, Zhi, and Yin, basically cutting off the logistics supply line of the coalition forces. Here
It is the territory of the Three Northeastern Kingdoms, so the Three Northeastern Kingdoms are destined to be on the defensive at the beginning. However, the bloody killing of Fengjing and the use of troops are not conventional.
The rations transported by the coalition forces from the vicinity of Juyongguan could not stop the Hetao cavalry attack if there were fewer accompanying soldiers. Although Huan Fuchuan, Heji Mu'er and others had tried their best to entangle more than half of the cavalry in the Hetao, the Hetao cavalry still remained.
There were also more than 50,000 cavalry active on the long road from Juyongguan to Xuanzhou, forcing Beijing to station a large number of troops nearby.
Due to the excessive activity of the Hetao cavalry, the coalition forces near Xuanzhou were even in danger of running out of food. Faced with such a situation, Huan Fuchuan and others finally could not sit still. Under Hekimul's personal arrangement, Mandanbai
The Beijing coalition forces had a head-on collision with 60,000 cavalry led by Xuesha Fengjing in Zhirong County, eighty miles northwest of Zhizhou Fucheng.
Huan Fuchuan personally led 50,000 soldiers to escort a month's supply of more than 300,000 troops from Juyongguan to the Xuanzhou front line, thus attracting the attention of the Hetao cavalry. Hejimul and Leng Fangbu led 100,000 soldiers.
The army, including 50,000 infantrymen, set up an ambush on the way, preparing to compete with the Hetao side. As expected, the Hetao cavalry fell into the trap and killed the 70,000 soldiers of the two Falcon Legions. They were attracted by the food and followed them all the way. As a result, Zhi Rong was found in Zhizhou.
Near the county, the Hetao cavalry finally ran into the trap that the coalition forces had prepared. Fortunately, Xue Sha Fengjing was an outstanding general in the Hetao, and they fled as soon as they saw something was wrong. The combat effectiveness of the Hetao cavalry was also tough enough, although in the end
More than 15,000 soldiers were left behind, but they also caused at least 20,000 casualties to the coalition forces. After this battle, the Hetao cavalry finally restrained itself a lot.
However, what made Huan Fuzhuan and others even more troubled was that the Hetao cavalry no longer disturbed their own logistics supply lines, but focused their main energy on the planned massacre of the people visiting Beijing on Beiyuan Road. The two legions of the Falcons were slaughtered with blood.
There are still close to 100,000 cavalry, and they are collecting food locally. On the vast plains of Beiyuan Road, at least 30,000 cavalry can be gathered at any time. In the five states of Beiyuan Road, in addition to the five state capitals and the Great Wall defense line,
As an important pass on the road, few county towns could withstand the cavalry attack of the three armies of Hetao, let alone the Beijing-based people scattered in the countryside. After half a month, although Beiyuan Road was not as littered with bones as the western part of Taihang Road, there were still many casualties.
There are also countless people.
At the end of May, more than 30,000 cavalrymen of the Falcon Corps suddenly rushed into Zhenzhou on the Donghai Road. Haixi General Jin Xiangliang, who had been promoted to the deputy envoy of the Donghai Road Guard, led more than 50,000 infantry and cavalrymen and intercepted the 30,000 cavalrymen led by Feng Jing personally in the suburbs.
The two sides fought for most of the day, but the Hetao cavalry could neither break through Jin Xiangliang's defense nor defeat it, and finally had no choice but to withdraw. At this time, Jin Xiangliang, who had been waiting for the Hetao cavalry to retreat, finally used the 10,000 he had been hiding.
The cavalry took advantage of the Falcon Legion's retreat to pursue them. At this time, the morale of the Hetao cavalry was already quite low due to their long-term failure.
Under the pursuit of the powerful Haixi cavalry, the Falcon Legion was as frightened as a bird and did not dare to stop fighting. More than 30,000 cavalry were actually chased by 10,000 cavalry led by Jin Xiangliang himself and fled in embarrassment. On Beiyuan Road
In the north of Qingzhou, the Hetao cavalry responsible for cutting off the rear of the Bangalore division was finally overtaken by Jin Xiangliang. From Bangalore down, more than 3,000 cavalrymen were killed in the battle. After this defeat, the Falcon Corps no longer dared to set foot on the East China Sea Road. When Jin Xiangliang released
Slow down and wait for the infantry formation behind to arrive. After slowly entering the Yinzhou boundary on Beiyuan Road, the nearly 100,000 cavalrymen of the two main blood-killing Falcon corps in Hetao who were originally active on Beiyuan Road actually slowly shrank and finally retreated back to Xuanyuan.
The southern line camp in the northern part of the state entered the strategic defensive stage.
"The patriarch, General Bangalore, died for his country. Among the 3,500 soldiers who were cut off with him, except for the cavalry who saw the opportunity quickly, none of the rest survived. Among the soldiers who died in the battle, most of them were original members of our clan.
The tribesmen in the Dragon Cavalry Legion." When Luo Shangdan, the commander of the personal soldiers, opened the curtain of the camp and came in to report, Xue Qingcheng was pointing and drawing on the map with several tribesmen such as Hu Biyandan, Green and Coco Gale,
While deducing the next military plan, upon hearing this, the expressions of Xue Qingcheng and others suddenly changed.
After listening to Luo Shangdan's narration, Hu Biyan raised his thick eyebrows and said solemnly: "Bangalore is dead? Impossible. He is the best warrior of my blood clan. How could he die in battle so easily?
battlefield?"
Coco Gal punched the table hard. Because of his great strength, he immediately smashed a big hole in the table, and even the map originally spread on the table was torn. He said angrily: "Elder
, this is obviously killing someone with a borrowed knife! Fengjing is a famous general in the Hetao cavalry, and his military strength is several times that of Haixi. Even if his spirit has been lost, there is no way he will be chased by Haixi and run away in embarrassment. The strength of Bangalore's arms is not less than a thousand pounds, and the strength in his hands is
The mace is so brave that no man can deserve it, the black dragon horse under his crotch is also eager to fight, and there are more than 3,000 tribesmen accompanying him, how can the whole army be wiped out? This is obviously Fengjing using the sword to kill people, trying to weaken my bloody tribe.
The power of!”
Cocogar and Bangalore were old comrades in the Dragoon Corps. They had a close friendship and knew Bangalore very well. Therefore, when they heard that Bangalore had died in battle, they immediately became furious.
Xue Qingcheng's expression suddenly changed, and she suddenly said to Luo Shangdan: "You lead my own soldiers to blockade the vicinity of the commander's camp. No one is allowed to come forward without my order."
Luo Shangdan said worriedly: "Chief, what will happen if General Buhe and Huang Bushai come?"
There are a total of five commanders in the Snow Lion Corps, but neither Buhe nor Huang Bushai is a member of the Blood Clan. Buhe is from Qingyun. Although he is not from Qianqi of Qingyun Garrison, he is the first batch after Hetao occupied Dingzhou.
The soldiers who joined the army were quite senior in the Hetao military. Because he was born in Qingyun, he was regarded as one of his own by the Qingyun generals in Hetao. During the military reorganization, he was mysteriously placed in the Snow Lion Corps for an obvious purpose.
Metaphor.
Huang Bushai was originally a veteran of the Eastern Army. This thirty-eight-year-old man was captured by Rouran when the Northern Expedition was defeated. He was later rescued by Haotian during his night attack on Dingzhou, and he followed Haotian until his death.
Buyi. However, Buhe was on duty today to patrol the camp, and Huang Bushai was summoned by Haotian for a meeting. Therefore, there were only a few high-ranking generals from the Scarlet Clan left in Xue Qingcheng's camp.
Xue Qingcheng said without hesitation: "If they come, just say that I am discussing the internal affairs of our Bloody Plateau with several generals, and they will never make things difficult for you."
Luo Shangdan took the order and went out. Xue Qingcheng turned around and looked at Hu Biyandan with the angry look on Ke Kejial's face and the sullen face, and her face suddenly darkened.
"Green, tell me what you think." Xue Qingcheng opened her mouth and said.
Green scratched his scalp and said: "Clan leader, my subordinates think there is something fishy about this matter. The subordinates have also heard of the reputation of Haixi General Jin Xiangliang. However, Feng Shuai is one of the five generals of our Hetao. Even in
Today, no one can defeat Feng Shuai head-on with equal strength. But Jin Xiangliang actually killed Feng Shuai with 10,000 cavalry, and Feng Shuai abandoned his helmet and armor, and even had to cut off his tail to escape. There must be something fishy in this."
Green is not very bright, but after all, he followed Feng Jing on expeditions when he went south, and he has a deep understanding of this young man's military talent. Moreover, the military generals in Hetao have no discrimination against Green, and his relationship with Feng Jing
It's also very good, so it's very difficult to say anything.
Coco Gal's face darkened: "Green, what do you mean?"
Hu Biyandan's face was not good-looking either. Bangalore was his old subordinate, and he had been stationed with him in Tiandu Shengjing for many years. Although this man was a little impulsive, he had always dared to speak and act, and he was a man. Now. Now
His death was so unclear that he naturally couldn't let it go.
Xue Qingcheng suddenly said: "Koko Gal, I know why Bangalore died on the battlefield."
Coco Gal and others were shocked at the same time. They all looked at Xue Qingcheng in surprise, their eyes full of disbelief.
Xue Qingcheng narrowed her eyes slightly and took a few steps back and forth: "Koko Gale, you are right, Feng Jing is indeed killing someone with a borrowed knife. However, his death is not unjust."
Kekejial's face turned red, and Hu Biyandan also said doubtfully: "Why did the patriarch say this?"
Xue Qingcheng snorted coldly and said, "Do you still remember how Yanshan died?"
Hubiyandan and others were stunned at the same time. No one knew what Xue Qingcheng meant. After all, Hubiyandan was one of the four elders of the Scarlet Clan, so he opened his mouth and said: "During that military reorganization,
Yanshan was very dissatisfied with Hetao's actions of splitting up the soldiers of my blood clan, so he led the crowd to attack the lord, but he was killed on the spot by you, the clan leader."
Xue Qingcheng nodded: "Yes, you remember it clearly. Elder, Coco Gale, I know that the reason why Yanshan dared to attack the lord's government office is that it is one thing to be angry. Your encouragement and support from behind is also a major factor.
.In addition to the two of you, there are also Tu Songchi, Na Kekoduo, Bao Luohu and others, right? I also know that you are holding back your anger about my killing of 127 people including Yan Shan.
wrong?"
Green looked confused, while Hubiyandan and Kekejia lowered their heads to avoid Xue Qingcheng's cold, lightning-like gaze.
Xue Qingcheng was right. When Yanshan attacked Haotianfu Yamen, it was indeed they, the generals from the Dragon Rider Corps, who were behind the push. Yanshan was originally a stubborn man, but when they provoked him, he led his men and charged forward. Of course.
, the consequences are tragic.
Hetao was undergoing military reorganization. The five original armies under Xue Qingcheng and more than 80,000 cavalrymen of the Dragoon Corps were all integrated into the Hetao cavalry system. However, except for Xue Qingcheng, the corps commander, there were only nine people, including Hu Biyandan.
Continue to be qualified to hold the rank of commander. Among them, Green, Tis, Ubanju, Chiliu Zengdan and Ananda Wangmei are the old subordinates who followed Xue Qingcheng southward, while only Hubiyandan remains in the dragon cavalry regiment.
, Kokogar, Yanshan and Bangalore. The remaining few who were originally members of the Ten Thousand Households were demoted to guard commanders.
The Dragon Rider Corps has been stationed in the Holy Capital of Tiandu for a long time, and the Scarlet Clan's nature makes them somewhat unruly. And seeing the soldiers below being divided in this way, many people among the Scarlet Clan are dissatisfied. Hu Biyan
Shan Shan was already angry, and when he saw Yan Shan being aggrieved, he took advantage of the situation and added fuel to the flames. Together with Tu Songchi and others, he encouraged Yan Shan to seek justice from Haotian. However, no one expected that Xue Qingcheng was so tough and could be pulled off with a whip.
He took Yanshan's head and executed all the remaining more than 100 people on the spot. However, Hetao was still kind and righteous. After Yanshan's death, the position of commander was still given to Tusongchi, who was from the Blood clan.
Xue Qingcheng said slowly: "Everyone, I know that you don't actually have any ambitions, and you don't have any malicious intentions. However, have you thought about the consequences of doing this? If I didn't kill Yanshan on the spot, then Hetao
There will definitely be a big purge in the future. Maybe this big purge will not be obvious, but just like Bangalore who died in the battle now, our bloody soldiers will be completely regarded as abandoned by them and still remain on the battlefield.
Above. I am deeply gratified by your loyalty to our clan. However, I cannot agree with the method you have adopted."
To be honest, Xue Qingcheng actually knew the fate of Bangalore and the thousands of Scarlet Cavalry under his command. When the Hetao Cavalry was reorganized, except for the two armies of Haotian's Huben Army and the Panshi Army, the rest of the cavalry teams were all joined by Scarlet Cavalry.
.The three guards under Bangalore are rare pure-blood tribesmen. In the eyes of outsiders, this is the importance Hetao attaches to Bangalore. But when Xue Qingcheng discovered that the three guards were all as virtuous as Bangalore,
When they were all extremely dissatisfied with the military split of Hetao, she had already realized what Luo Xianghe Xuanji meant. That is, if these people were dissatisfied like this, it would be easier to throw them out.
After Xue Qingcheng figured out the purpose of Luo Xiang's mystery, she mentioned it to Bangalore several times, either explicitly or covertly, but Bangalore just didn't understand. But Xue Qingcheng didn't dare to point it out publicly, otherwise with Bangalore's stubbornness, who would
She knew whether he would make a noise openly. In that case, it would only be counterproductive. Xue Qingcheng had no choice but to hope that they could gradually wake up in the future battles. However, she did not expect that the man who seemed to be gentle, elegant, and well-known in the Hetao military
The respect of the elegant people was so decisive that Bangalore was thrown out so early.
