After receiving the news from Xianbei, Liu Xin and the other generals and strategists were already at the Yuyang County Governor's residence. Liu Xin also quickly escaped from the beautiful life in Yuyang. The shadow of the war shrouded everyone, but from their faces, it was obvious that they were only excited, not worried or afraid.
"My lord, according to the Xianbei spies, the Xianbei invasion this time is probably the largest in recent years. Zhi Cai believes that there must be a special reason. We must guard against it."
Listening to Xi Zhicai's analysis, Liu Xin also felt that this was an important matter. The Xianbei had sent out fifty thousand troops. This was the largest scale of the Xianbei invasion since the Battle of Setting Sun. The Wuhuan tribes in western Liaoning were guarded by Gongsun Zan, an old thief, and had nothing to do with him. The Wuhuan probably wouldn't waste such a good opportunity. Once the Xianbei people went south, they attacked Beiping and Liaoxi. His Yuyang Prefecture was still fine. With Youbei and Liaoxi as a buffer, the Xianbei couldn't attack Yuyang in one go. He didn't know how Gongsun Zan would deal with the Xianbei invasion. Gongsun Zan had more than five thousand cavalry. About 7,000 infantrymen were stationed in various important towns, with Luroncey as the main defensive pass. Luronse was located in the easternmost part of the Xuwu Mountains, between two mountains. On the left was Meishan, and on the right was Yunshan. Luroncey was a city built on a mountain, with three walls forming a defensive system in the shape of a sun. The outer city wall was five zhang tall, three zhang wide, and a thousand zhang long. It was made of stones stacked from the inside to the outside. In the center was a ten to twenty zhang tall city tower called the Sun Gazing Tower. At both ends of the main city wall, auxiliary walls were built according to the mountain's terrain. There was also a story on each wall. The Plum Tower stood on the Plum Mountain, and the Cloud Tower was built on the Cloud Mountain. Starting from the two side walls, it extended further up the mountain. The Great Han Kingdom had built a city wall that was about two hundred miles long to prevent the Hu Tribe from invading. A hundred steps back from the main city wall, a tall city tower was built between the two mountains. The city wall was as high and wide as the main city wall, 500 feet long. There is a building called Lulong. The two sides were connected to the main city wall by stone walls. On both sides were two rows of barracks. A hundred steps further back was the New Moon Tower, which faced the main road. This city wall was forty feet high, twenty feet wide, and eighty steps long. There was a floor on it called the New Moon Tower. On both sides of this place were warehouses for storing grain, stables, and wooden houses for treating wounded soldiers. It was indeed an impregnable pass that could be blocked by ten thousand people. As long as Gongsun Zan defended this pass, the Xianbei would definitely be blocked from going south. However, he did not know if Gongsun Zan could defend this pass. There shouldn't be a problem. No matter how many cavalrymen there were, as long as there were more than two thousand infantrymen guarding the city, it would be difficult for the enemy to shake the impregnable pass.
After analyzing the situation, Liu Xin was not anxious for the time being. He just needed to pay close attention to the situation.
"My lord, as long as you give me 2000 Youzhou cavalry, I can beat the Xianbei dogs back to the grasslands and capture that old bastard Yuwen alive to be my lord's urinal.”Zhang Fei looked at his lord anxiously. He had thought that there would be a big battle to fight, but now that it seemed that it would not succeed, and that old thief Gongsun Zan had gotten the upper hand, Zhang Fei could not sit still anymore.
"My lord, give me 1000 Youzhou iron cavalry and I can beat the Xianbei dogs to a pulp, capture that old bastard Yuwen alive and chop off his head to be my lord's urinal.”Yan Ming looked at Zhang Fei. He couldn't get good things alone. Recently, he only trained his soldiers and didn't fight. His whole body felt itchy and uncomfortable.
Liu Xin looked at the crowd. They were very happy that their morale was good. Seeing the worried expression on Xi Zhicai's face, Liu Xin knew that there was something that the military counselor could not figure out.
"Lord, according to common sense, the Xianbei know that with Lulong Sai blocking them, no matter how many troops there are, they won't be able to do anything. "Why did they send 50,000 troops? Zhi Cai thinks that there must be something we don't know about." Xi Zhi Cai scratched his head and still couldn't figure it out. Could it be that the enemy wasn't afraid of Lulong Sai at all? Only when the problem of Lulong Sai was solved would the Xianbei dare to gather their troops to the south. Otherwise, it would be impossible. Moreover, the Xianbei lord of the east, Mi Jia, had already fought with the Great Han countless times. Naturally, he knew.
It was powerful. "Not good, my lord. Luroncey must have lost. In Zhicai's opinion, Gongsun Zan might betray the country and send the Xianbei people south to attack the lord. If we don't make preparations, I'm afraid Yuyang's foundation will be destroyed."
Shocking, absolutely shocking. If what the military counselor said was true, then Yuyang would be dangerous. He had to plan for the worst. Liu Xin came back to his senses, and he already had a plan in his heart.
" I wonder how you think we should handle the current situation. After all, it's still a guess." Liu Xin looked at Xi Zhicai. In fact, Liu Xin already believed in his deduction. Only then could he explain why the 50,000 Xianbei soldiers had come south.
Looking at his lord's eyes, Xi Zhi knew that his lord had already agreed with his deduction. "First, order people to constantly monitor the Xianbei cavalry, Lulong Sai, and the movements of Youbei. Also, mobilize the army and set up defenses on all fronts to deal with the worst case scenario and resist the enemy outside Yuyang.”
"Alright, let's do as Zhicai says. Ryuji, pass down the order to keep an eye on the Xianbei, Youbei, and Lulongsai's movements. Report immediately if there are any signs.”Since Liu Xin agreed, he didn't say anything.
"In addition, my lord can send Commandant Yan to lead Youzhou's 1st Cavalry Regiment out of Pinggu to the surroundings of Ji County.”Xun You thought for a moment and suggested,
"Yan Ming, listen up. Immediately lead the 1st Cavalry Regiment and station them around Ji County. Don't take the initiative to attack. There is no chance of winning against 5,000 enemies that are several times stronger than you. If you encounter special circumstances, you can attack!”Liu Xin kept giving orders.
Looking at Zhang Fei's anxious black face, Yan Ming already had a battle to fight, but he didn't. He had joined the lord and hadn't fought a battle yet, so how could Old Zhang not be anxious?
Looking at Zhang Fei's anxious expression, Liu Xin suddenly had a bold idea. Looking at the map of Youzhou, Liu Xin kept staring at the Juyong Pass Avenue. He circled from the west end of Yanshan Mountain to the north end of Yanshan Mountain and directly attacked the Xianbei grassland. Now that the Xianbei people in the east had mobilized 50,000 people to the south, the defense in the rear must be empty. If he could make a drastic move at this moment, the Xianbei people would be greatly weakened and he would be less of a threat in the future. When the Central Plains was in chaos, he would have nothing to worry about and could go south without worry. Drinking horses in the Yellow River, fighting for hegemony in the Central Plains.
Wealth comes from danger. It was decided. Xi Zhicai kept looking at his lord. Seeing his lord's determined expression, he knew that his lord had already thought of it.
"Yi De, I have a very important mission here. It can even determine the strength of both sides for a long time to come. Do you dare to accept it?”Liu Xin knew that it would be difficult for him to display his full strength if he did not goad Zhang Fei.
When Zhang Fei heard that his lord had an important task for him, he was naturally very happy. He did not expect his lord to still remember Old Zhang. Old Zhang still had goods. "Why wouldn't I dare? Old Zhang dares to make a military pledge!“
Looking at Zhang Fei, who didn't even know what task he was going to assign to him, he dared to make a military pledge. Liu Xin and Xi Zhicai didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Only this old fellow could do such a thing.
"Yi De, don't be anxious. It's better to listen to the mission that the lord has arranged for you before considering it."
"Advisor Jun, how dare you underestimate me!" Zhang Fei's eyes widened. He was obviously anxious. It was not easy to get a chance, so he could not let it go.
Liu Xin placed the map on the table." Yi De, I need you to take the main road of Juyong Pass and go around Yan Mountain to attack the Xianbei grassland. This time, the eastern Xianbei army will attack, and the rear will definitely be empty. This time, go and rob whatever you can. Slaughter all the men, the elderly, and the children. Bring back the war horses and women. Can you do it? Can you do it?"”
Zhang Fei took a look. F * ck, big money, good opportunity, satisfying. Old Zhang liked to do this. "Look at what my lord is saying. If I don't even dare to do such a small thing, how can I kill the enemy? My lord, don't worry. This time, we will definitely defeat the Xianbei army and make them recover in less than 10 years. Just wait and see, Old Zhang will go now."
"Wait, Yi De, let Yi Zhi accompany you. Everything must be discussed with Yi Zhi, and you can't act rashly. Otherwise, you will be punished by military law when you return.”Liu Xin thought for a while and decided to send Guo Xu, who was the most stable, over. Only then would he be at ease and let Zhang Fei go. After all, it was very dangerous to go deep into the enemy's rear.
Everything that needed to be prepared was ready. Now, it was time to observe the development of the situation. At present, Yuyang City was urgently mobilized, and the reserve forces were urgently summoned to defend Yuyang City. The Breaking Ranks were responsible for overseeing the entire Yuyang County. This way, once a battle broke out, Liu Xin could personally lead the Dragon Cavalry Army, as well as the javelins and scythes. These were all prepared to deal with the cavalry.
Liu Xin looked at the land of Yuyang. The sun had set as usual. He wanted the people of Yuyang to live and work in peace and contentment. Especially in the past few days, he had experienced life with the three beauties. He had a deep feeling. He must fight this battle well and not fail. Otherwise, who knew how many of the people who were dependent on him would die under the iron hooves of the Xianbei.
Lu Pinger, Da Qiao, and Xiao Qiao looked at Liu Xin's lonely figure. The afterglow of the setting sun shone on their lover, making him look like a god of war. Just looking at his back made the three of them drunk, giving them a sense of security. Xiao Qiao was very happy now because Liu Xin had acknowledged her status and expressed his love for her. Her unrequited love had finally come to fruition. The three women stepped forward at the same time, holding Liu Xin's hands and watching the sunset together. The guards at the back saw this scene and were actually drunk. No matter what, they had to protect their lord.
In the winter of the year 182, Lulong Sai, which had stood tall for countless years, was broken. The news was immediately sent to the Yuyang County Governor's Office. Liu Xin looked at the urgent document and knew that this war was inevitable. He could only fight to the death. It was time to teach the Xianbei dogs a lesson. Otherwise, he would think that the burly man was as easy as a persimmon!
