Three Kingdoms: Summon the Heroic Soul Yue Fei at the beginning

Chapter 450 Zhang He's Letter
Chapter 453 Zhang He's Letter
At this moment, a soldier came to Ye Xiao and held a letter over his head for Ye Xiao to look at.

Ye Xiao took the letter and found that it was written by Zhang He. He thought that Zhang He had wiped out the Huns. He opened the letter with a smile, but as he read it, Ye Xiao frowned. The content of the letter was very short. Just a dozen words.

"Surrounded, break out and retreat to the direction of Yinshan Mountain, hope the Lord will rescue you."

In just a dozen words, Zhang Xi's predicament and helplessness at this time were written.

"Come here and bring me a map."

Following Ye Xiao's order, a map was handed over. Ye Xiao looked at the map calmly, and quickly analyzed Zhang Yun. They should have been blocked in the Baishiyan area.

"Zifang, this is Junyi's letter, take a look."

After speaking, Ye Xiao handed the letter from Zhang He to Zhang Liang, and Zhang Liang began to read it after receiving the letter.

"My lord, it seems that Jun Yi is really in danger, otherwise he wouldn't have called for help with such short words."

"I know what you said. What I want to know now is which way he will retreat if he retreats."

After hearing Ye Xiao finish speaking, Zhang Liang came to Ye Xiao, looked at the map in Ye Xiao's hand, fell into deep thought, and after about a cup of tea, Zhang Liang spoke slowly.

"My lord, if I were Junyi, then I would definitely take this path, and then go up the official road and enter Yinshan Mountain."

"Why?"

In fact, Ye Xiao knew why, but just wanted to hear whether Zhang Liang thought the same as him, Zhang Liang cleared his throat when he heard Ye Xiao's question.

"My lord, according to the letter sent by General Zhang He a few days ago, we can know that General Zhang He and the others are planning to attack the Huns by the Qing soldiers, but at this time we have received a letter for help, which means that General Zhang He suffered an accident somewhere. An ambush by the enemy."

"My lord, there are only two places where an ambush is possible near Baishiyan. The first one is to set up an ambush on the road of Baishiyan. If the Huns set up an ambush here, General Zhang He's surname will not come out at all. Come."

"And the second point is to set up an ambush in the Valley of the Lion King, let General Zhang He and others advance for a while, and then at night when General Zhang He is resting, the Huns come from the Valley of the Lion King to deal a fatal blow to General Zhang He."

If Murong Yan or Wu Tuoxi were around at this time, they would be surprised by Zhang Liang's talent and learning. Zhang Liang did not participate in this war at all. Just relying on Zhang He's letter and the current map, he could judge the cause of the war that night. time and exact location.

"If I remember correctly, Zifang, you told me that day that Baishiyan was ahead, but we have been walking for a day now, and we haven't reached Baishiyan yet. What's going on?"

Ye Xiao looked at Zhang Liang and asked.

"Returning to my lord, on the desert, although one city is close to the next, the distance between the cities is very far away, just like the distance we are now. If we want to reach Baishiyan, we have to Go for two days."

When Ye Xiao heard Zhang Liang's words, he remembered that when he was on a business trip in the northwest, the endless desert city and the sword pavilion between the cities were indeed terrifying.

"How about this, first send scouts to inquire about the news around Baishiyan, and see if we can meet Junyi."

"The rest of you should speed up your march, we will try to join Junyi quickly."

After Ye Xiao finished speaking, he thought Zhang Liang would leave, but found that Zhang Liang was still standing there, Ye Xiao asked very puzzled.

"Does Zifang have something to say?"

"My lord, since we want to support Junyi, why don't we just send iron cavalry forward? We must know that this is less than a day and we can only march about sixty or seventy drops. In addition, the sun is very poisonous now, and the weather is cold in the morning. Along the way, the soldiers had to start fires and put them out."

"If my lord only brought the cavalry and let the cavalry rush to Baishiyan day and night, wouldn't it be possible to save General Jun Yi faster?"

Seeing what Zhang Liang said, Ye Xiao asked with a smile.

"Does Zifang miss his sweet wife?"

Hearing Ye Xiao's question, Zhang Liang immediately smiled and asked back.

"Don't my lord miss my wife?"

"Naturally, I want to part with the ladies for many days, and I miss them very much."

Speaking of this, Ye Xiao remembered that he had been away from Yuzhou for half a year at this time. When he was going on the expedition, Liu Bowen and others were still admonishing him, telling him that there was no need for foreign rebellions in such places to do it himself, but they were rejected Ye Xiao refuted it. When he returned home, he was very clear about the consequences of these alien races becoming bigger.

Back then, it was because the Ming Dynasty did not care about the Oirats, which led to the unification of the Oirats. The Mongolian princes also took the opportunity to go south, and made a civil fort change, and the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty was captured.

And Ye Xiao is not good, let this era have a second Oirat, so Ye Xiao decided to personally crusade against the Xiongnu and Xianbei allied forces and train these newly recruited soldiers by the way.

"Since the lord misses his wife, he should rescue General Junyi as quickly as possible and return to Yuzhou."

"Could it be that I rescued General Jun Yi this time, and then let the Huns go, and then continued to invade our border after they recuperated. At that time, I was personally conscripting? In this way, not to mention the waste of time and money, it will make the Huns People think we are easy to bully."

Hearing what Ye Xiao said, Zhang Liang probably guessed what Ye Xiao meant, but he didn't dare to be too sure, so he asked tentatively.

"My lord, you want to drive these Huns out of Mobei?"

When Ye Xiao heard what Zhang Liang said, he turned his head and glanced at Zhang Liang, then nodded slowly and said.

"It's true. Only when those Huns are completely wiped out can our north be peaceful."

"But my lord, there is a wilderness in Mobei, how should we manage it?"

Zhang Liang’s problem is also a problem that has troubled the rulers of the past dynasties. The Han people belong to the farming society and are good at farming and other things, while the land in Mobei is mostly desert pastures, which are only suitable for grazing. The Han people are not proficient in grazing, so generally large The unified dynasty will find a few foreign races willing to submit to them in the land of Mobei as a natural barrier, which can also be controlled, and the grasslands in the north can also draw manpower from these foreign races in the event of war.

Ye Xiao didn't want to do that, because he knew that there was something called potatoes and corn in this world, and Ye Xiao also knew that they were in America, but now that the world was not unified, he didn't have time to explore America.

But once Ye Xiao unifies the world, he will send ships to explore the American continent, so as to bring back crops such as potatoes and corn. At that time, even the bitter cold places in the eyes of those literati can be cultivated.
