"This is called the camp being empty and unprepared? Zhang Chun lied to me!"
King Nanqiao of Wuhuan, who had led his troops here, felt his heart tighten as he had a bad premonition.
When Fo Xiao raided the camp, he was already prepared for the enemy.
No matter how many enemies there were, this incident itself was a huge blow to morale.
"King, look! There's fire in the northeast!"
King Nanqiao followed the direction of his trusted soldier and couldn't help but say in shock,"
"Damn it! This is the beacon tower of the Han army. I don't remember the Great Wall here!”
However, since they were already here, they would not be willing to leave without a wave of recklessness.
King Nanqiao commanded his troops to charge at the camp, but they were shot back by Liu Bei's arrows several times, resulting in countless casualties.
Although they had also killed many Han soldiers, anyone with discerning eyes could see that the Han soldiers had sufficient strength and that a war of attrition would not be effective.
Once his morale dropped, King Nanqiao, who thought he had fallen into a trap and wanted to preserve his strength, had the thought of retreating.
"Forget it, let's fight and leave. Fortunately, there are not many casualties.”
King Nanqiao decisively ordered the troops to retreat.
The Wuhuan soldiers suffered over a thousand casualties and slowly retreated in an orderly fashion.
However, not long after they retreated, they heard a faint, dull rumble on the road ahead.
"Your Majesty, the entrance to the valley has been broken by thousands of fallen trees! More than a hundred of our soldiers were killed!"
"Not good! We were really ambushed!" The people around King Nanqiao panicked.
"Don't be anxious! Those who disturb the morale of the army will be beheaded!"
King Nanqiao knew that the situation was critical.
Without saying anything, he pulled out his saber and beheaded a person who was shouting and messing up the morale of the army.
After he had intimidated the others, he decisively ordered,
"The Han army is sneaky and only dares to fight with bows and crossbows. They don't dare to fight us head-on! As long as the road was blocked, they could just dismount and move the wood!”
Unfortunately, the troops at dawn were difficult to control.
The Han soldiers lying in ambush on the mountaintop raised their fire and shouted. Behind them, the soldiers of Liangxiang Camp also slowly pressed forward with spears, shields, and crossbows.
The Wuhuan soldiers who had dismounted quickly fell into chaos.
Most of them realized that as long as they abandoned their horses and walked, they could escape by hiding on the two sides of the hill.
Since that was the case, why would they risk their lives to move trees for their allies?
King Nanqiao killed a few of them, but he couldn't stop the team from running around.
At this moment, someone pointed to the northeast. There was a row of torches approaching.
He did not know if it was the rapid response reinforcements attracted by the Beacon Tower.
King Nanqiao could only let out a long sigh, abandoning his horse and fleeing in the darkness along the dense forest on both sides of the hill.
When the sky was completely bright, Liu Bei led his men out to clean up the battlefield.
He found that there were about one to two thousand Wuhuan Horses left in the ravine that had been broken by the rolling logs.
There were also countless weapons such as scimitars, bows and arrows, as well as fur armor.
This vote was really worth it.
What was even rarer was that he hoped to create a bigger gap in trust between Zhang Chun and the Barbarian King.
……
Zou Jing knew of Liu Bei's victory that day, but he did not know how much Liu Bei had gained.
Liu Bei also knew how to behave, and announced to the public that he had seized another 600 horses.
He took the initiative to give his old boss 300 yuan, but his other colleagues didn't.
Taking advantage of the victory, Liu Bei added,
After two defeats, Zhang Chun definitely wouldn't dare to use the exhaustion technique anymore.
Zou Jing felt that it made sense, so he concentrated more troops to defend Changping Valley.
He also blamed Zhang Nan for not paying for the beacon tower, which led to the delay in mutual assistance.
Unfortunately, Zhang Nan wanted money so badly that he didn't want to make a loss, so he gave up everything he had, hoping that he wouldn't make a mistake.
If the Imperial Court wins or loses, why should I take out hundreds of thousands or even millions of money to build the Beacon Tower?
Do you think everyone is like Liu Bei, a Han clan relative who brings his own rations and still has to be loyal to the court?
I'm an official who gets paid by the army!
Besides, why didn't you pay two million yuan out of your own pocket and pay for all of us!
After fighting for ten days, Zhang Chun's prestige among the Wuhuan people gradually declined after a few defeats.
……
Back to the beginning of April in Luoyang.
After He Jin and Yuan Shao suffered a setback, they felt that they had lost face and could not mobilize their men.
He pushed the blame onto Liu Yu, who was about to be transferred to Youzhou Prefecture.
He Jin personally treated Liu Yu to a drink, and then coaxed and coaxed Yuan Shao, saying that they really had no choice.
If they were allowed to attack at their own pace, then they would have to wait until autumn to count on the South Xiongnu reinforcements.
If he wanted to bring it forward, Liu Yu would have to use his personal prestige and favor.
He needed to personally write a personal letter to the Qiang Qu Chanyu asking for help, and push for this matter with the imperial edict.
He Jin actually knew.
Liu Yu's personal prestige was more effective than the imperial edict of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty.
Liu Yu couldn't refuse, so she could only temporarily remember this matter and put it on her to-do list.
……
After being blamed by He Jin, Liu Yu returned to the residence and began to make military preparations for his transfer.
At that time, he was still a Great Patriarch.
His subordinates were also a bunch of Han clan relatives who were in charge of the royal household registration.
There were not many people who understood military affairs.
The thought of writing a letter to Qiang Qu Chanyu…
Begging him to send troops, Liu Yu felt that there was no one around him to use.
They lacked talents who understood diplomatic negotiations!
How should he write this letter?
His own prestige was naturally sufficient.
However, only people who were good at diplomacy could negotiate with the Chief.
Liu Yu went through all the subordinate officials in Zong Zheng's residence in her mind.
In the end, he actually thought of the guy with the lowest official position:
Li Tian, who only had 300 dans!
