Han Sui couldn't help but laugh. "What about the emperor? The Xianbei people will not listen to his edict and surrender voluntarily."
Yan Xing was speechless. "It is true that the Xianbei people will not listen to the emperor's edict, but the Xianbei people definitely want to take the emperor's life. When the emperor is here, the Xianbei people will not give up easily. As long as there is a slight possibility of victory, they will go all out
."
Han Sui was stunned for a moment, as if he was waking up from a dream.
The most talked-about thing among the Huns is that Maodun besieged Han Emperor Yu Baideng and wrote a letter of credence to tease Empress Lu. The most talked-about thing among the Xianbei people is Tan Shihuai's rejection of Emperor Xiaohuan's marriage proposal.
The capture of Danhan Mountain by the Han army was the greatest shame for the Xianbei people. If they could capture the Han emperor alive, they would not only be able to save the face of Danhan Mountain being captured by the Han army, but also regain their morale and possibly get a large reward.
The emperor is the most tempting lure.
The Xianbei people came in droves, seemingly because of the Wolf Cavalry, but in fact they came for the emperor. Unless the Han army was too strong and they felt that there was no chance at all and retreated in the face of difficulties, they would not give up easily.
Did the Han army have the strength to make the Xianbei people retreat despite the difficulties? No, at least not in the Xianbei people's eyes.
So they will not give up easily and will fight to the end as long as there is a chance.
In this case, he did not need to consider the issue of pursuit. Instead, he killed a large number of people in positional battles and destroyed the main force of the Xianbei people as much as possible.
Compared with assault cavalry, the Han army had more obvious advantages in positional warfare, and Han Sui had been training in positional warfare and siege warfare for the past six months.
This may be the reason why the emperor consulted him, but his on-the-spot response failed to meet the emperor's requirements.
Han Sui was so upset that he wanted to slap himself in the face. If he was not careful, he might lose this rare opportunity.
"So, we should stand up to fight?" Han Sui asked Yan Xing for advice quickly, regardless of Yan Xing's attitude.
"Yes, we must not only set up a formation, but also set up a strong formation to show that we can't do it, so that the Xianbei people feel that they may succeed if they attack again. If necessary, they can even open up the formation and let the Xianbei people enter the hinterland and come before the emperor.
"
"Is this... possible?"
"It can be done." Yan Xing said unhurriedly: "As long as you don't deliberately indulge the enemy and get the emperor's permission in advance, it is not impossible even if the emperor goes to fight in person. To win with less, you should use every skill.
The power of people.”
Yan Xing turned to Han Shaoying and said: "Your female battalion must also be prepared for battle. This may be one of the few opportunities for you to go into battle."
Han Shaoying nodded excitedly. "I'll tell Yun Lu later."
Yan Xing added: "It's just that it's easy to show strength, but it's the hardest to show weakness. Luring the enemy into an ambush may seem clever, but if done improperly, it may turn out to be true, causing the army to collapse. Aweng intends to command the army to meet the enemy, and there are many things to prepare.
The most important point is to let the soldiers know your deployment, so that there will be no misjudgment and the morale of the army will be shaken."
Han Sui nodded repeatedly. Yan Xing hit the nail on the head, but he was still sure of it. After more than half a year of training, his subordinates had improved significantly compared to before and would not collapse easily.
"The students taught by Mr. Jia are about to graduate. Some of them are commanding scouts on the front line to detect the enemy's situation and block the Xianbei forward. Aweng might as well discuss with Mr. Jia to see if some people can be transferred to the camp to assist the captain.
Lieutenant. Those people are not only proficient in the art of war and can directly command operations, but also know the sand table and position design. They are rare and good helpers. What is even more rare is that these people are good at communicating with soldiers and can eliminate their uneasiness and stabilize the morale of the army. "
"Really?" Han Sui was moved.
"Aweng hasn't talked to Jia Shizhong?" Yan Xing was a little surprised.
Han Sui looked embarrassed. He had been here for a while, but he had never met Jia Xu in person. There were both objective reasons and subjective reasons. He was reluctant to meet Jia Xu and always felt that his words were not congenial.
"Aweng has been busy training troops." Han Shaoying quickly smoothed things over for Han Sui. "There is a chance today. Their positions are together."
"Yes, yes." Han Sui quickly agreed and decided to have two more drinks with Jia Xu later.
When the sun sets, the celebration party officially begins.
The seats of Emperor Liu Xie and Queen Fu Shou were in the middle, but no one had arrived yet.
Everyone else has already arrived.
On the left are the chief servants Jia Xu, General Han Sui and Ma Teng, followed by other officials such as Huben Zhonglang General Song Guo, Yulin Zhonglang General Zhang Xiu, Sanqi Changshi Guo Wu,
Yan Xing, Zhao Yun, Ma Yunlu, Han Shaoying and others sat below one after another. The emperor's official presence was limited in number, including several ministers, that is, twenty or thirty people.
On the right side are the Wolf Cavalry soldiers who went on this expedition. Wolf Cavalry Commander Lu Bu and his wife Wei Si took the first seat, Wolf Cavalry Commander Shi Huang Yi and his wife Yuan Si took the second seat, followed by Wei Xu and other meritorious officers, and the other soldiers sat at the bottom.
The seat is facing the emperor.
All the surviving soldiers were present at the table, including those who were seriously injured and could not sit up. The Imperial Medical Office specially arranged people to serve them food and drink to ensure that they could share the glory bought with their blood.
From time to time, someone would leave the table and stand up to congratulate Lu Bu and Huang Yi.
Lu Bu and his wife were in high spirits, looking left and right.
Huang Yi and his wife sat quietly and greeted each other with smiles.
The tent was very lively, with loud laughter. Langguan and attendants filed in, and wine and food were arranged. The aroma of wine, accompanied by the aroma of warm meat, filled the entire tent, making people salivate.
Han Sui seized the opportunity and chatted with Jia Xu for a while.
Just as he was talking, Wei Jian appeared at the door of the tent, pressed the long sword on his waist, and coughed: "Emperor of the Han Dynasty, the empress has arrived, civil and military officials are quiet."
The big tent suddenly became quiet, everyone stood up and looked towards the entrance of the tent.
The tent door was opened, and Liu Xie held Fu Shou's hand and walked in slowly. Under the gaze of countless eyes, they came to the main table and stood still. Liu Xie motioned to Queen Fu Shou to sit down together, and then extended his
With your right hand, press down gently.
"Gentlemen, please sit down."
Wei Jian said loudly: "The Emperor of the Han Dynasty granted him the civil and military throne."
Everyone said in unison: "I'd like to thank Your Majesty for the seat." Then they took their seats. Although there were many people, no one said anything. There was only the sound of adjusting clothes. Even the most unruly Lu Bu held his breath and did not dare to make a single unnecessary sound.
.
"Gentlemen, today's banquet has two purposes." Liu Xie stood up, cleared his throat, and said calmly: "The first is to celebrate the victory of the wolf cavalry soldiers. The second is to fight against Xianbei.
Mobilize. Let’s talk about the first thing now.”
Liu Xie turned to look at Lu Bu and Huang Yi, chin slightly.
Lu Bu and Huang Yi bowed in return.
Liu Xie looked at Wei Xu and others again, his eyes scanning the weather-beaten faces of each Wolf Cavalry soldier, allowing each of them to feel the emperor's attention.
Xun Yun stepped forward, poured a glass of wine, and then handed the glass to Liu Xie's hand.
Liu Xie raised his wine glass. "This battle cannot be won without the bravery and fearlessness of all of you. I would like to toast all the brave warriors with this first glass of wine. You have proved with your personal experience that a Han can not only be a Wuhu, but also a Wuhu."
You can be considered a Ten Hu or a Hundred Hu."
He paused and said loudly: "Everyone, please drink this cup to the full."
After saying that, he raised his glass and drank it in one gulp.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Lu Bu and others agreed in a loud voice, raising their glasses and drinking down the wine in one gulp.
