Back to the Song Dynasty as a tyrant

Chapter 877

After Wu Jie came out, he said with a bitter face, "What's the matter?"

"Yu Yunwen came to visit you." Guo Hao seemed to know what Wu Jie was doing just now, interrupted Wu Jie with a bit of complacency on his face.

"Can't you go and deal with it?"

"It seems that there is something urgent and I must see you."

"Look, handsome, it's you who seized this opportunity and must call out handsome!"

"The last will not dare!"

Wu Jie ran in and put on his coat, then walked to the front hall.

Yu Yunwen and others are waiting there.

"My next official sees Wu Shuai!"

Wu Jie looked kindly: "What's the matter with Binfu coming to see me?"

Yu Yunwen cut to the chase and said, "Wu Shuai, to tell the truth, I'm here to borrow soldiers."

"Borrow troops?"

"The barbarians outside the pass committed suicide arbitrarily, causing merchants in Fuzhou to complain, and some people dare not go north to leave the pass."

"So you came to this commander to borrow troops to fight the barbarians?"

"Yes."

"If my commander remembers correctly, His Majesty has given you the task of maintaining good relations with those people outside the pass. Are you going to send troops to fight them?"

"If we don't teach them a lesson, how can we explain to our own people, who will dare to go out to do business in the future?"

"But if you send troops and fight with them, won't the relationship between the two sides be broken?" Wu Jie asked.

"If you blindly beg for help, what you get in return is reconciliation?"

Wu Jie laughed loudly: "Okay! I like your idea, how many soldiers and horses do you want?"

"Three thousand cavalry."

"Your appetite is not small. You want three thousand cavalry as soon as you open your mouth. There are only five thousand cavalry in total here!"

"If you don't defeat those barbarians once, they will think that we are easy to bully!"

"Do you know how to fight?" Wu Jie said with a bit of teasing on his face.

"War is to destroy the enemy!"

Looking at this young scholar, Wu Jie couldn't help but think of himself when he was young, and he said, "What if the relationship is completely messed up?"

"It will be borne by the lower officials alone."

"I'm afraid you can't afford it alone."

"But right now, we must send troops!" Yu Yunwen said, "Please also ask Shuai Wu to help me!"

"Guo Hao!"

"The end is here."

"You go and order three thousand cavalry, go out with Yu Zhizhou, and let those barbarians feel our enthusiasm!"

"Order!"

After Guo Hao and Yu Yunwen went out, they asked, "When will Zhizhou want someone?"

"I want it now!"

"Now, so impatient?"

"If we are slow, those barbarians know that we are going to attack them, and they will take precautions or flee." Yu Yunwen said, "The grassland is very vast. If they escape, how can we find them again?"

Guo Hao couldn't help being a little surprised that Yu Yunwen, a scholar, actually had such an opinion.

He couldn't help but praised: "Yu Zhizhou also knows soldiers!"

"The way of the world is similar with minor differences." Yu Yunwen said, "Why don't Guo Dutong send scouts to investigate first, and the rest of the people set off immediately, how about it?"

"Okay, as you said!"

Three thousand cavalry rode all the way out of the north of Fugu and entered the boundary of Fengzhou.

The boundary of Fengzhou is naturally also the border of the Great Song Dynasty. The Great Song Dynasty had set up some fortifications here before, but due to frequent wars, the population gradually withered, and it was abandoned.

And after all, it is a border area, and the border will not be as clear as those of later generations, and some barbarians often come to fight grass valleys.

In fact, this area entered the junction of the Central Plains Dynasty and the grassland.

The Song Dynasty was a dynasty that didn't like to build the Great Wall. It was said that the boundary of Fuzhou was the place where the ancient Great Wall passed through. However, in the Song Dynasty, it was not rebuilt.

The main reason is that a lot of city walls were built here to fight Xixia, and the bigger border troubles are in Hebei.

Guo Hao asked: "Yu Zhizhou, who are we going to fight when we come out here, and where are the enemies, do you know?"

"Of course I know that in the south of Yinshan Mountain and north of Fuzhou, this group of barbarians is called the Wanggu tribe." Yu Yunwen said seriously, "This Wanggu tribe claims to be the descendants of Li Keyong The Wu people are different, they speak Turkic language."

Guo Hao couldn't help being surprised, no wonder Yu Yunwen dared to send troops so quickly, he had already learned a lot about the opponent.

Yu Yunwen continued: "Like most of the Northern Yi people, the Wanggu people lived a nomadic life, but they also farmed some fields. In the past, some of them would go south to do business with us, but more of them would do business with the Jin people. .”

"Then how strong are their troops?"

"The Wanggu tribe has a lot of people in the south of Yinshan Mountain, but they don't form a group, they are scattered."

"Then how do we go after our enemies?" Guo Hao asked, "We can't kill just one place we see, right?"

"Of course not. If we see one place and kill it, we will soon completely anger the entire Wangu tribe, cut off the possibility of wooing them, and make them completely fall to the Kingdom of Jin, which is not good for us."

"What if it is killed?"

Yu Yunwen was stunned for a moment, then said: "I can't stop killing. Back then, Wei Qing and Huo Qubing fought the Huns with coaxing and deceit. Once the Huns realized that they couldn't beat them, they would run away. The Han army couldn't find anyone on the vast grassland." .”

"Then who is our target this time?"

"One named Uncle She, he is the younger brother of the leader of the Wanggu Tribe, Ala (la) Huso. I met Ala Huso last year. He is very interested in our cooperation, but his younger brother wants to cooperate with Jin We cooperate with others, always thinking of being our enemy."

"Do you know where he is?"

"No accident, he should go here tens of miles south of the Yellow River."

For the cavalry, this range has been reduced to a very small one.

"It seems that you have known about his whereabouts for a long time."

"This person has repeatedly shown his hostility towards our dynasty. He grazes horses south of the Yellow River, and often sends some troops to wander in that area. His purpose is to threaten the reconstruction of our city wall in Fengzhou."

"How many soldiers and horses does he usually dispatch?"

"It's not yet known."

Guo Hao said: "I don't know, it doesn't matter, my three thousand cavalry is more than enough to fight a Wang Gu tribe."

On the eighth day of April, two hundred miles to the southwest of Yunnei Prefecture, a group of cavalry were indeed recuperating there.

These cavalry are the soldiers and horses of Wang Gu's tribe.

This area belongs to the boundary between the front Tao plain and the back Tao plain, which is near Baotou in later generations.

There is not only horse herding here, but also cultivated land, located in the south of Yinshan Mountain.

Yinshan is an important dividing line between the Central Plains dynasty and nomadic people in ancient China.

Of course, the place Yinshan was taken over by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

To the north of Yinshan Mountain is an endless grassland and desert, and to the south of Yinshan Mountain is a long and narrow plain from west to east, which is the legendary Hetao Plain.

The Hetao Plain is rich in natural resources, and whoever seizes it has the initiative.

At this time, Uncle She was drinking and eating meat.

He said: "This time killing the Song people is very good. If the Song people dare to send troops to us, we will expand the war and completely break with the Song people!"

Chapter 878

Altai said: "I'm afraid Alahushi won't agree to an all-out war with the Song people."

"Sometimes, some things are beyond the control of Ah Lahu." Uncle She laughed and said, "As long as we keep looting Song, Song people will soon be unable to sit still and want to fight us."

"Then how do you explain to Ala?"

"It's not us who robbed, but the people below did it. We don't know who it is, and it has nothing to do with us! Hahaha!"

The rest laughed too.

"In my opinion, as long as Uncle She can completely sever our relationship with the Song people, he can make demands on Yelu Yujian as much as he wants." Su Nonghei said.

"That Yeluyu can't be trusted." Altai said, "There is quite a gap between this person and the Jin people. I am worried that this person will rebel against the Kingdom of Jin, and then you will be implicated, Uncle She!"

"Whether Yeluyu sees rebellion against the Kingdom of Jin has nothing to do with me. Now I just need his support to support me as the leader of the Wanggu tribe."

Altai added: "I heard that the Song people also have a lot of troops in Fuzhou. Should we withdraw to the north of the Yellow River to prevent the Song people from making a surprise attack?"

"Song people have never stepped here, they dare not!" Uncle She sneered, "not to mention that Yu Yunwen, who has been begging to join us, he will never dare to act rashly!"

"Come on, drink!"

Everyone began to eat meat and drink heavily again, and they drank all afternoon, and they were already drunk by the evening.

The Yinshan Mountain in the distance is like a giant dragon crawling between the sky and the earth, witnessing the rise and fall of the years.

The April wind blows across the rolling Yellow River, moistening the fertile Hetao Plain.

The iron hooves of the Central Plains Dynasty have not arrived here for hundreds of years.

Just today, on this bloody evening in the setting sun, in this evening when the strong wind swept across the open grassland, the cavalry of the Central Plains Dynasty reappeared here after hundreds of years.

Guo Hao asked: "Master Yu, if you charge like this, will you be ambushed by the enemy?"

"The scouts say that the enemy is resting now." Yu Yunwen said, "Time is running out!"

Guo Hao thought to himself: Damn it!This Yu Yunwen has never fought a war before. Does he know that fighting is very dangerous? Isn't it a little too wild for the whole army to rush over?

It was also Guo Hao's first time fighting on the grasslands. He had no idea and wanted to be more conservative.

After all, after Wu Jie made a decision on this matter, if something went wrong, Wu Jie would have to bear the responsibility.

But now Wu Jie's main task is to build a city wall to the west, and secretly advance the front against Xixia.

Guo Hao didn't want any problems at this juncture.

When it was getting dark, the Song army arrived at the north of the Yellow River.

The setting sun, which had already sunk half into the horizon, dyed the empty four fields red.

The Wanggu tribe deployed some scouts in the south, but they would never have imagined that the Song army would make a big detour south of the Yellow River, interspersed to the north of the Wanggu tribe, that is, on the edge of the Yellow River.

The torrential Yellow River flowed tirelessly eastward, and seeing the iron hooves of the Central Plains Dynasty again seemed to be jubilant.

The Song army took a short rest, and then collectively changed horses, changing horses and charging horses.

Yu Yunwen pulled out his sword, rode on a horse, and shouted in front of the large army: "I am a scholar. I have no strength to bind a chicken, but I have the heart to calm the world. A man's ambition is in the four directions, and the north is not peaceful. Why should family be?" , today we will kill the enemy together and build meritorious deeds!"

Guo Hao said in his heart: Fuck, Zhizhou Yu, this is what I should fucking say!

Countless figures moved quickly under the setting sun, rushing towards the south.

At this time, everyone in Wang Gu's camp was sleeping soundly, and they didn't even know that Song Jun had arrived.

When the setting sun completely sank to the horizon, the sky turned dark blue.

"what sound!"

It was too late when Wangu heard the roar of iron hooves coming from the ground ahead.

"There is an enemy attack!"

"Quick! There is an enemy attack!"

"..."

Trumpets sounded among the Wangu camps.

People hastily picked up their weapons and prepared to join the battle. The sleeping people in the camp were awakened and walked out of the camp in a daze.

However, at this time, the cavalry of the Song Army changed from walking fast to running in small steps, and entered within 300 meters.
