Chapter 895: Northern Expedition and Return to Beifu
Liu Yu frowned deeply: "Xuanshuai, if you must carry out your plan, I hope to be able to act with the vanguard this time, because I am not at ease. No matter whether I live or die, I will be with my brothers.
"
Xie Xuan's face darkened: "Ji Nu, this is the military order we have negotiated. You have been in the limelight too much before, so it is not appropriate to be a vanguard this time. We have already agreed on this matter, so there is no need to talk about it anymore!"
Liu Yu was impatient and said quickly: "Xuan Shuai, I..."
Xie Xuan waved his hand and stopped Liu Yu: "The army will set off tomorrow. I still have military affairs to deal with. Send slaves, you should pack your bags. In three days, when Liu Mu and the rear army set off, Li Yang will be left to you.
No matter what, we must keep it!"
Xie Xuan said, turned around and left, followed closely by a dozen guards. Liu Yu froze on the spot, looking at Xie Xuan's retreating back, speechless for a long time.
Half a quarter of an hour later, on a small hillock in the Chinese army camp, Xie Xuan looked serious, looking at Liu Yu who was leaving in the distance. Liu Laoyi, wearing a general's robe and armor, was standing next to Xie Xuan with a majestic look on his face.
An imperceptible smile appeared on his side.
Xie Xuan sighed softly: "Longzhi, this time you won't say that I am partial, just use Liu Yu."
Liu Laozhi smiled and saluted: "Thank you Xuan Shuai for giving me this opportunity. I will always be grateful."
Xie Xuan turned his head, looked at Liu Laozhi, and said calmly: "Jinnu only considered it military after all. He didn't know how much pressure our Xie family faced this time. Although the Northern Expedition after Feishui captured the Central Plains,
, but the major aristocratic families did not reap the benefits, but were dissatisfied. This time, my husband was under pressure and wanted to bring people like Zhang Yuan and Teng Tianzhi with him. However, the combat effectiveness of their troops cannot be counted on. It might be better to stay and defend the city.
Okay, the mission of vanguard assault belongs to you."
Liu Laozhi nodded: "I will definitely take Yecheng as quickly as possible and will not let others get involved. Everything is ready. When the time comes, General Liu Xi, Zhuge Kan and He Wuji will transport the grain.
Go to the area of Fangtou and Gutou and let Fu Pi take the people there to eat, and we can take the opportunity to occupy Yecheng. As for Murong Chui, once he sees us joining the Qin army, he will naturally lead his army north, and our army will take advantage of it.
If you pursue it sharply, you will definitely be defeated!"
Xie Xuan shook his head: "It's enough to occupy Yecheng. There is no need to pursue Murong Chui. What Liu Yu said makes sense. Murong Chui's strength has not been damaged. If he takes the initiative to evacuate, I'm afraid there will be fraud."
Liu Laozhi laughed and said: "Murong Chui is not very strong. Most of his subordinates are just rabble-rousers. They will only rely on him if they think he can achieve success in Hebei. If he gives up Yecheng, which he has been besieging for two or three years, and goes north, he will only
Afraid that his men would be completely dispersed, our army followed slowly behind to observe the dispersion of his troops. Once most of his troops were dispersed, we could wipe them out in one fell swoop. If his military strength was well preserved, then I would naturally not
Take risks and attack.”
Xie Xuan said seriously: "This matter is not only related to the fate of the country, the future of my Xie family, but also your future development in the army. In this case, you must be calm, calm, and calm again. As long as you gain a foothold in Yecheng,
Hebei will be ours sooner or later."
Liu Laozhi smiled and raised his hands in salute: "Don't worry, Commander Xuan. This time, I will let the reputation of the Beifu Army shock the world!"
At night, in the Beifu Army camp, a long queue, like a dragon, quietly walked out from each open camp gate. There were endless torches extending all the way to the north, but no noise could be heard, only that
The uniform sound of military boots hitting the ground, and even the sound of horse hooves, are so rhythmic. In the firelight, you can see that under the banner of the commander with a big "Xie" in the word, Xie Ping'an is armed, under the guard of more than ten famous generals.
Get off, ride the big horse, and go out.
Liu Yu had a serious look on his face, standing on the arrow tower above the camp gate, watching the army go away. Liu Muzhi on the side looked relaxed and said with a smile: "There will come a time when you will no longer be the vanguard."
Liu Yu shook his head: "I don't feel very good this time. It was a bit too hasty. Some of the old brothers who just gathered today are still not here and we set off in the evening."
Liu Muzhi smiled and said: "If not, how could we leave Zhang Yuan and Teng Tianzhi's troops behind? This Northern Expedition is still the Beifu Army and the Xie family's Northern Expedition. They eat the meat and leave some soup for them."
Just drink something else."
Liu Yu frowned deeply: "We should work together in the Northern Expedition. At this time, we have to be limited to such sectarian views. It shouldn't be. Marshal Xuan shouldn't be such a person."
Liu Muzhi put away his smile and looked around. The nearest guard was also on other arrow towers twenty steps away. Liu Muzhi lowered his voice and whispered: "Jinnu, you probably don't know this."
For the purpose of the Second Prime Minister and Commander Xuan, the credit for this time cannot be given to other families under any circumstances."
Liu Yuqi asked: "What does this mean? In the past, during the Battle of Feishui, we still needed the help of the major families, but this time we don't need it?"
Liu Muzhi sighed: "You may have forgotten that during the Battle of Feishui, Huan Chong wanted to send Huan Xuan to lead three thousand elite soldiers to participate in the battle, but he was rejected by Mr. Xianggong. Sometimes, people like this come to help.
The so-called own people, in the eyes of Mr. Xuan Gong and Marshal Xuan, are more troublesome than the enemy. At least the enemy can be eliminated, but this nominal friendly force cannot be truly eliminated."
"This Northern Expedition is not a defensive war. The territory captured will be allocated to the soldiers who have made meritorious service in the future. The Xie family's Northern Expedition is to recover the lost land on the one hand. They will take the opportunity to strengthen the power of their own family, strengthen the power of the Beifu Army, and use the recovered land.
Keeping the population and property in one's own hands is the main purpose."
Liu Yu took a breath of air: "How to divide the land? Doesn't it belong to the imperial court?"
Liu Muzhi sneered: "Yes, just like the land in Wu, it belongs to the imperial court in name, but can the imperial court control these lands and the people on them?"
Liu Yu said thoughtfully: "You mean, the Xie family wants to monopolize the land obtained by the Northern Expedition? This appetite is too big."
Liu Muzhi shook his head: "No, the Xie family is not that stupid and will not monopolize it, but the newly occupied land can be distributed to the meritorious soldiers according to their merits. As you said, there is no treasure in the north, so we cannot give it to the soldiers as agreed.
If they reward them, they can give the newly occupied land in the north to the soldiers according to their merit. Just like in the last battle of Feishui, all the soldiers who crossed the river can become officials. In this way, these territories will become the Beifu Army's.
, that is, the Xie family. In this way, the Xie family not only controls the army, but also controls a large area of newly recovered territory in the north, and no longer has to worry about the emperor's suspicion."
