Chapter 30 Sending troops to Shanggu County

After more than 20 days, nearly [-] cavalry finally arrived in Ji County. All the servants were exhausted. After Liu Yueyun and Qin Qiong stayed in the barracks, Gongsun Yue led Li Cunxiao, Dian Wei, Di Qing and Chen Ping into Ji County.

As the seat of Youzhou, the city of Ji County is high and deep, with walls as high as four feet (about 9 meters). It is nearly 3.5 kilometers long from north to south, 2.5 kilometers wide from east to west, and covers an area of ​​nearly 9 square kilometers. It is considered a strong city.

Although Ji County was not as prosperous as the Central Plains in the past, there were people coming and going, but now every house is closed, and occasionally there are three or two pedestrians on the street, who are also hurrying and looking quite nervous. The cloud of war has shrouded the whole city. over the city.

"Bogui, I have finally expected you to come. Now the leader of Wuhuan, Tadun, is uniting with the leaders of Wuhuan of Shanggu, Liaoxi, and Youbeiping counties, and the troops will be divided into two groups. What can we do?"

After entering the State Shepherd's Mansion together with Gongsun Zan, an old man over 50 years old with gray hair and a sad face quickly walked up to him, followed by several people. Gongsun Yue already knew his identity after sweeping his eyes.

【Name: Liu Yu】

【Commander: 53】

【Force: 42】

【Intelligence: 85】

【Politics: 92】

Today's Liu Yu is not only the shepherd of Youzhou, granted the title of Marquis of Xiangben, but also worshiped by Dong Zhuo as the Taifu. He advocates treating the local nomads with a gentle policy. There is quite a prestige between the common people and the Waihu.

Liu Yu's intelligence and politics are good, especially the politics has reached 92 points, which is more than enough to govern a state.

But the few people behind him were shabby. The only generals were Xian Yufu and Xian Yuyin. Both their commander and force were in the seventies. No wonder Gongsun Zan pressed him on the ground and rubbed him hard.

As for civil servants, Liu Yu's cronies such as Tian Chou, Wei You, Cheng Xu, Qi Zhou, Zhang Yi, and Zhao Gai did not have the talents of military advisers, but they were capable of administration, so naturally they could not resist Gongsun Zan's tiger-wolf division.

However, among these people, Gongsun Yue found a young figure, who seemed to be in his thirties. It was Di Qing's brother Di Renjie, who was now the county magistrate of Ji County under Liu Yu's command.

"Lord Zhou Mu, since the Wuhuan people dare to buckle up, we must beat them thoroughly this time, otherwise they will come and harass them once every three days, which will be very annoying.

I have already read the information. Wuhuan's main force is mainly concentrated in the two counties of Liaoxi and Youbeiping. In Shanggu County, Nanlou, the leader of Wuhuan, is the commander. The army can go to resist.

Since they are divided into two ways to hold back the side, then we will divide into two ways to meet the enemy. On the way back, my second brother and I have discussed that he will lead [-] elite cavalry to resist, and I will personally lead the rest of the main force. Go to Beiping County, look for fighters to fight the Wuhuan people! "

After Gongsun Zan finished speaking, Liu Yu repeatedly shook his head, disapproving of his strategy.

"General Fenwu, the Hu people are brave and good at fighting, and they are said to number [-]. General Ziqing only led [-] soldiers and horses. Isn't it like hitting a stone with an egg?"

"Lord Zhou Mu, as long as you can prepare [-] arrows for me, as well as [-] high-quality war horses, and [-] days of rations, I will issue a military order. I would like to raise my head and see you!"

Seeing that Gongsun Yue was full of confidence, and Gongsun Zan told the sidelines that the "tiger and leopard rider" was as brave as the "white horse righteousness", and after seeing the bravery of Li Cunxiao, Dian Wei and Di Qing, Liu Yu could only nod in agreement.

"Since General Ziqing is confident, Benzhou Mu will stop persuading him, don't worry about the arrows, grain and rations, they will be delivered to the camp outside the city in three days.

If General Ziqing can repel the Wuhuan invasion this time, Mu of Benzhou will ask the imperial court for his merits and rewards. I hope the general can keep our soldiers and civilians in Youzhou safe! "

"Master State Shepherd, don't worry, you will definitely fulfill your mission!"

After discussing the march in the State Shepherd's Mansion, Gongsun Zan first returned to the camp outside the city, while Gongsun Yue brought Li Cunxiao, Dian Wei, and Di Qing to Di Renjie's mansion.

"Brother, we brothers can finally fight side by side, tell me about your situation after you came to Ji County!"

As soon as he entered the mansion, Di Qing couldn't wait to pull Di Renjie to ask questions. He was completely different from his usual meticulous and reticent.

"Second brother, with General Ziqing's letter recommendation, Master Zhou valued me very much and directly made me the magistrate of Jixian County. Di has not had time to thank General Ziqing.

General Ziqing, the Hu people are a people on horseback. Almost all men are soldiers, and all of them are good at riding and shooting. Are you three thousand soldiers and horses an enemy of the Hu people several times your own? "

Di Renjie was worried when he was in the State Shepherd's Mansion, but now he is in his own mansion, and he is his own person, so he naturally opened up.

"Brother Renjie, don't worry, since you dare to boast about going to Haikou, you are sure of it. Although the Shanggu Wuhuan cavalry is said to be [-], the number is definitely not that many, and it is estimated that it is only more than [-].

And among the more than ten thousand cavalry, the real elite is estimated to be around five thousand, three thousand against five thousand, plus a few strong generals, if the "tiger and leopard cavalry" can't win, how can we talk about "what the soldiers are pointing at, Invincible!" "

"Brother, keep your heart in your stomach. This time we not only want to defeat Shanggu Wuhuan, but also prepare a big move. Just wait for our good news!"

Seeing the mysterious appearance of Gongsun Yue and others, Di Renjie didn't ask any more questions. He knew Di Qing's character very well, and he would never do anything that had no chance of winning.

"Brother Renjie, the army will not move out until a few days later. During this time, you and Brother Wenjie have a good chat, and you will definitely gain something!"

"Di has heard of the name of Ying Chuan and Chen Wenjie for a long time, so he naturally wants to ask for advice at such a good opportunity!"

"To each other, the lord has praised brother Renjie very much, and praised you as "the talent of Wang Zuo". Chen has been a good friend for a long time!"

Seeing that Di Renjie and Chen Ping had already begun to compete, Gongsun Yue was more than happy to see this, and after leaving Di Qing to protect Chen Ping, he returned to the barracks with Li Cunxiao and Dian Wei.

In the next few days, Gongsun Yue took Li Cunxiao and others to make the final preparations before the battle. In fact, it was just to equip the horses with Takahashi saddles, double-sided stirrups and horseshoes.

Although these are small gadgets, the effect is undoubtedly obvious. These cavalry are good at riding. After they get used to Takahashi saddles and double-sided stirrups, they will be able to free their hands, and their combat effectiveness will have a new level. promote.

As for the use of horseshoes, it can increase the propulsion time of the horses and protect the horseshoes from wear and tear, which not only prolongs the service life of the horses, but also lays the foundation for this long-distance raid.

The 500 cavalry who went to Shanggu County to fight the Wuhuan invasion this time, in addition to [-] "tiger and leopard cavalry", there were also [-] cavalry selected from Youzhou cavalry, all of them were good fighters. Among them were five hundred "White Horse Yi Cong", led by Gongsun Fan, who went to Shanggu County together.
