"There is no need to pursue." Tang Ao waved his hand and concluded.
The opponent's combined cavalry and infantry have more than 300,000 horses, and with Daliang City behind them, there are sufficient logistical supplies.
On the other hand, the number of people here, even if all are added together, is only more than 100,000. To pursue them is to give the opponent a chance.
Speaking of which, if Wei Qian'er didn't want the Huns cavalry that they finally obtained to be too wasted here, the current situation is that they should attack the city and defend on their own side.
"Everyone has been tired for a while. Let's take a good rest first." Tang Ao finally said with a relaxed look on his face.
From the time someone contacted Sun Fuhu, to Oyadan being kidnapped, Tang Ao going to save him and being injured, Pingcheng pretending to change the flag, the Huns cavalry attacking, and the Xuanjia army dispatching, too many things have happened recently.
Fortunately, the Jizhou Army withstood this test. Although there were more than 100,000 Beidi troops outside the town and county, the crisis must have been resolved when uncle Shen Yunyi arrived with a large army.
Tang Ao is one person and cannot dominate the world. Even so, it is better to relax fully. What he has to do now is to deal with Oyadan. Becoming a master can truly be a man, and now he is When fulfilling the duties of a husband.
As long as Oyadan returns to his heart, with her help, he can better integrate the power of the barbarians, which will be of great benefit to strengthening his own strength.
...
Daliang City.
Le Ming led an army of 100,000 men and committed suicide in defeat. The news that General An Zhiwu had no choice but to lead an army of 150,000 men across Pingcheng and retreat to Daliang City had already spread back to the palace.
Emperor Qianying was furious with thunder.
This time to attack the Jizhou Army, the timing was very good, and there was no possibility of failure. But who would have thought that this would be the result.
Well now, not only did we not capture a city or a pond, but we also lost 100,000 elite infantry. The only thing that is gratifying is that we have gained the loyalty of 200,000 Huns cavalry.
When he thought that these were 200,000 cavalry, and they were very powerful Hun cavalry, why Emperor Qian Ying could not be greedy, so he called in several important ministers to discuss how to take the military power into his own hands.
Although Wei Qian'er had been promised before, as long as she could convince the Huns cavalry, the military power could be handed over to this woman. But now the situation has changed, didn't the Xuanjia Army lose a hundred thousand men?
With this matter in mind, now that he wants to regain the command of the Huns cavalry, it is not considered a breach of contract, at least it can be said to be reasonable.
This matter was so important that Emperor Qian Ying found Zhang Zhen, one of his important ministers, and entrusted him with this matter.
Zhang Zhen was originally one of Emperor Qianying's most trusted and most relied-upon staff. Unfortunately, he was captured by the Jizhou Army when he was instigating a rebellion against Xian County. Although he was later redeemed at a price, he no longer looked like the As trusted as before.
After all, who knows what kind of experiences a captured person has encountered, and whether there have been any psychological changes?
But this time, in order to take back the military power of the 200,000 Huns cavalry, Emperor Qianying immediately thought of this person. After all, this is one of Zhang Zhen's special skills. The incident in Xian County at the beginning, if the Jizhou Army had not taken action earlier If he takes one step forward, he might actually be able to accomplish the matter.
Zhang Zhen also knew that this was an excellent opportunity for him to perform. After receiving the order, he rode a fast horse out of the city and headed north to meet the 200,000 Huns army.
Emperor Qian Ying wanted to renege on his promise and take over the command of the Huns cavalry. If this happened, the person who would be hurt the most would be Wei Qian'er. How could she be captured with her IQ?
Before Emperor Qianying's order was issued, that night, when the army was stationed for a rest, Wei Qian'er got into the tent of Huyan Gai, the king of the Huns.
Hu Yangai is more than 40 years old and has a beard on his face. Perhaps it is because of the difficult living conditions. The skin on his face looks very rough due to the wind and sun.
In addition, he was the king of the Huns. He wanted to frighten his subordinates and had a fierce face. No matter how you look at it, it makes people feel that they are far away from him.
But tonight, Wei Qian'er came to sacrifice herself. Without it, her current strength is too weak, and she has no other trump cards to use to win over Hu Yangai except her own identity and body.
Of course, knowing that in the eyes of men, the best thing is always what you can't get, Wei Qian'er will not send her body right now. She has already called two maids to take her place. These two women are both in shape and physical appearance. They are all one-of-a-kind in appearance, and the only difference between her and her is temperament and status.
Wei Qian'er was talking and Hu Yangai listened, and soon the ferocious face showed an expression of excitement. According to what Wei Qian'er said, she would marry her, and then Hu Yangai would have a more formal identity, the former big brother. Son-in-law of King Di.
Speaking of which, the Xiongnu was just a small branch of Dadi. When Wei Zhongyuan was the king of Di, he was just a young man less than twenty years old. His achievements were far from what he is now. Even from a distance, he was just a young man. When you arrive, you should step back and bow your head to salute.
Huyan Gai is what he is today because he dared to fight hard and was a member of the Huyan clan. This is why he achieved his current reputation.
But even this name is only recognized by the Huns and known by Beidi. In Daqian, few people know about him, and no one takes him seriously.
In ancient times, identity was very important. With the help of a good identity, a person can often save twenty years of struggle. In fact, it is not much different in modern times.
Wei Qian'er's willingness to marry Hu Yangai is equivalent to giving him a higher status. This is undoubtedly an excellent thing for integrating more forces and developing his own strength. Even if he leads troops back to the north in the future , there is a legitimate reason to send troops to Beidi, to avenge my father-in-law.
The identity of Wei Qian'er was given in time, but it was not enough. What she wanted was to tie Huyan Gai to her chariot. Then she started talking about the various cunning ways of Gan Ren. The general idea was that Gan Ren They cannot be trusted and must be guarded against, let alone leave military power in their hands.
Hu Yangai also agreed very much with this point. He had no intention of handing over military power, otherwise he would become a tiger without claws and could be pinched and squeezed by others. "But if you don't listen to Emperor Daqian, , what to do with the food and drink of the army? With 200,000 cavalry, eating horse chews is a big problem."
"It doesn't matter, Daqian is very rich, let's just go and rob him." Wei Qian'er said as if she was prepared.
"Robbing?" This answer seemed to surprise Huyan Gai, "Can Emperor Daqian agree to doing this?"
"I will definitely agree. The premise is that he gets half of the things we grabbed, and all the territory we grabbed is also given to him."
After all, I have studied Daqian for so many years, and I also understand the thoughts of the powerful people here. The people here are very hard-working, but also very cowardly, and they are easy targets for bullying. But the powerful people here only care about profits. As for the lives of the people, they will never put them in their eyes.
Knowing this, I will grab whatever I should and give away the benefits that should be given away. I will not give up the territory at all and give it all to Emperor Qian Ying. In this case, how can he have any reason not to agree?
As long as the Xiongnu army shows an attitude that we will not stay here for a long time and will return to Beidi, Emperor Qianying and all the nobles of Qianying will not regard them as enemies. This will be more conducive for them to go Loot to strengthen your own strength.
Once they have money and food, it is the time for them to fight back to Beidi and establish a new Dadi.
Wei Qian'er talked a lot, and Hu Yangai agreed one by one after hearing it. It was originally agreed that part of the looted things would be given to Emperor Daqian, which was within the scope of what he could accept. But on this basis, he did not He didn't pay anything, but on the contrary, he got a beautiful woman as his wife, and he had the great righteousness to return to Beidi and build the Great Di. No matter how you look at it, you have earned it.
The two hit it off and got Huyan Gai's promise that only the two of them could lead the 200,000 Xiongnu army, not even the Daqian Emperor. Wei Qian'er left the tent with satisfaction.
Of course, when Wei Qian'er left, the two maids who were guarding outside the tent also got into the tent. Naturally, they had no ability to negotiate terms, and some of them just offered their relatively clean bodies.
Wei Qian'er had done all this in advance. Zhang Zhen, who didn't know it, was still coming at a high speed, and he really died before he left the army.
...
Town and county.
The 140,000 Dadi army launched a continuous attack on the city for several days, but with little effect.
With the arrival of Shen Yunyi, the Second Firearms Battalion set up its position, and the Chariot Battalion was in front of the moat. Under the constant counterattacks of bows, arrows and artillery, the Beidi Army suffered heavy losses, but they could not even cross the moat.
Beidi was too poor, and they still used the oldest attack method. Apart from ladders, they didn't even have many siege vehicles. With their strength, how could they capture the town and county towers that had been heavily reinforced with money?
But even after knowing this, Yi Quxiao had no intention of leaving with his army. He was waiting for the Xuanjia Army and the Xiongnu Army to inflict heavy losses on the Jizhou Army. At that time, the Jizhou Army in front of him would have to return to defense. , their opportunity presented itself naturally.
After dozens of days of hard work, the lives of nearly 10,000 warriors were sacrificed, and the number of injured reached 20,000. The news finally came, but it hit Yiquxiao like a bolt from the blue, and he was unable to recover for a long time. Come.
The Xuanjia Army was actually defeated and had to withdraw from the territory of the Jizhou Army.
What was even more hateful was the Xiongnu army. They actually had no intention of causing trouble in the territory of the Jizhou Army. Instead, after crossing Pingcheng, they rushed all the way towards Daliang City.
What are you going to do? Are you going to cause trouble in the central and southern areas of Daqian?
