Chapter 389 Good talk on paper

When Liuzhu Bodhisattva was separated from Xie Xiqiu, he once asked the deputy general of Liuzhou a question of heart-killing.

Are you not afraid that you and I will defend the two towns of Linyao and Fengxiang, but because the 20,000 monks did not rush to the battlefield in Liuzhou in time, Qingcang City was lost?

At that time, Xie Xiquan's answer was very interesting: It would be impossible to have the enemy Jianghuai here.

The Northern Liang border army has always had the habit of xenophobia. Gu Dazu, deputy commander of the infantry, had already won a high reputation in the Spring and Autumn War, but outside Liangzhou Pass, he never reached the level he should have. There was obviously support from young vassal kings, and he could not change that embarrassing situation. Jinquqiao Zhou Kang once broke up with him in Chongzhongjun Town. For example, as both the deputy commander of the infantry, Chen Yunchui had something to discuss with the cavalry on the left and right of Liangzhou, or needed to borrow.

If you transfer people, you may not have to come in person. Just a letter, or even the grievances of the cavalry are angrily digging the footsteps of the cavalry. From Yuan Zuozong to He Zhonghu and Zhou Kang, anyone would probably endure it. At most, they would laugh and scold a few times when they met and discuss matters. However, it was Gu Dazu's turn. Even if this veteran of the Spring and Autumn Period who could hold a firm place in the history of military strategists, he was even known as the founder of the world's situation, and would never have such treatment in the Northern Liang border army.

Not only Gu Dazu, but the younger generation of Yu Luan Dao had a bad situation at first, so he could only go from Liuzhou to Youzhou and was regarded as the cavalry general, rather than climbing directly on the Liangzhou side cavalry. You should know that before the Youqi fought a series of battles outside the Hulukou, the Youzhou cavalry was always ridiculed by the Liangzhou side cavalry, who was above the top Liangzhou side cavalry, and privately joked about the daughter of the old general Yan Wenluan. Embroidery, it was okay, but it was absolutely impossible to fight.

Then, General Liuzhou, who was neighbor of the Longxiang Army, betrayed Jianghuai. After the first Liangmang battle, the Longxiang Army wanted to replenish the military source. Whether it was He Zhonghu or Zhou Kang, even if Cao Wei, a young cavalryman who had experienced no borders, wanted soldiers and generals. Although the cavalry in Liangzhou had complained, they all followed the wishes of the young vassal kings. Only Kou Jianghuai, who was the general of Yizhou, knew the entire Beiliang officialdom that this person was a genius of military law who had made great achievements in Guangling Road. In the end, his direct troops were only young and strong. Moreover, after he finally gathered a cavalry of ten thousand people, he was not willing to deliver them to their superior war horses, either because of the harsh military orders of the young vassal kings from Qingliang Mountain, he did not respond to the perfunctory.

This was the case with the enemy Jianghuai. In fact, Xie Xiqin, who was also one of the two kings of Great Chu, was not much better. Before he was temporarily promoted to the deputy general of Liuzhou who was a third-rank official, he cooperated with the elite cavalry of Caowei to rush to Miyun Mountain Pass. At that time, his cavalry was of mixed origin. Most of them were the cavalry of Fengxiang and Linyao, who were born in the Western Regions, and the two or three thousand cavalry recruited by Chai Dongdi and Han Wenbao. Such chaotic soldiers would probably look down on even the Youzhou cavalry, which was looked down upon by the Liangzhou side cavalry.

Whether this deeply rooted habit can change is related to the level of Xinliang Wang’s personal prestige, but the relationship is definitely not so big that it changes day and night.

And the young vassal king seemed to have almost conceited confidence in this.

In fact, neither Yu Luandao, who had been promoted to the second deputy commander of the Left Cavalry by He Zhonghu, nor the less veritable general of Liuzhou, the Gu Jianghuai, had never disappointed Beiliang.

This is especially true for Xie Xiqian, who has helped Cao Wei take over the Miyun Mountain Pass.

Before Xie Xiqiu brought troops to settle in, there were already two thousand soldiers guarding the city, half of the refugees and half of the Youzhou infantry. Compared with the low walls of Qingcang City, the Dafeng Dynasty obviously attached more importance to Fengxiang Army Town, which could reinforce the Western Region Protectorate's Mansion as soon as possible. The city walls were set to be the same size as the county town of the Central Plains. Compared with the two ancient towns of Qingcang Linyao, the Dafeng Dynasty finally ended up being a magistrate. Fengxiang, who was the county magistrate and the chiefs of the other two towns, had more than 200 officials who were able to wear the seal of Dafeng, far exceeding the 120 people in Linyao Qingcang. Once the Western Region Protectorate's Mansion in the west could not control the more than 40 countries in its jurisdiction, every time the war, the defeated and fled Western Region nobles must pass through Fengxiang Army Town, and then choose to enter the Central Plains from the old Northern Liang, or turn to the southeast and go to Shuzhao for refuge.

Therefore, the history of Fengxiang Military Town is like its city wall, which is heavier than Qingcang Linyao.

If there were no 10,000 monk soldiers from Xie Xifeng as the backbone, Fengxiang Army Town faced the attack of 10,000 Southern Dynasties Buba soldiers and the three thousand cavalry outside the city to take the opportunity, perhaps at most, they would try to knock down more bodies of the Beimang barbarians under the city and at the top of the city. Fengxiang was destined to be lost. Beiliang could only give up this strategic point covering half of the Western Regions. Perhaps Liuzhou was defeated by the western front army of Huang Song Pu's army, and Fengxiang Linyao's gains and losses were of little significance. However, as long as the two sides were evenly in a stalemate, the two towns would be in great possibility to change the situation of the battle. One side needed to provide a large rear for Yu Luandao and Cao Wei's cavalry, and the other side could use this as Gusai Prefecture to gather troops and strongly reinforce Huang Song Pu. Especially if the Liuzhou cavalry won by chance and still had the spare energy to break through the defense line of the Southern Dynasties and to conquer Gusai Prefecture in the north, then Beiliang lost the two towns, which could even be fatal.

The 10,000 Buba's ants attacked the city, which was fearless. However, because it was a surprise attack with certainty, it did not carry a large amount of supplies, food and siege equipment that delayed the speed of advancement. Therefore, even the Buba's siege, which was considered by Beimang to be not inferior to the Youzhou infantry in the Northern Liang and Jinan infantry in the Liyang, had a very difficult battle. Although the downward Buba's siege, which had no geographical advantage in the process of shooting the arch bows, still showed amazing accuracy. Many young and strong refugees who were truly involved in the war for the first time, even if they were reminded in advance not to show their heads and wait and see, many of the corpses could only be dragged off the road. On the premise that Xie Xiqian did not use the monk soldiers in the Lantuo Mountain to the greatest extent, a group of suicide soldiers holding shields and holding swords attacked the city several times, and then they were killed and retreated again and again by Youzhou infantry and young and strong refugees.

From noon to dusk, Bubazhu paid nearly two thousand lives, most of whom died on the top of the city and was then dropped off the top of the city.

During this period, Xie Xiqiu only allowed everyone's strong and powerful monks to participate in the defense twice, twice.

Night battles are naturally not conducive to siege, so Bubazhu gave up after trying to siege the city.

He attacked the city many times but could not break through, just like the master of the martial arts world can break through the realm with only a line of distance, so he naturally would not give up.

The next day, it was destined to be a more tragic offensive and defensive battle.

The guarding the city was extremely silent.

Everyone looked at the monk soldiers of Mount Lanta, especially the young general with expressionless face, with sadness and anger in their eyes.

It’s not how they are afraid of death, but as long as the young man named Xie is willing to draw a thousand people to the front line of the city, they can kill many less people.

Even if there are only five hundred people!

So early in the morning the next day, the Beimang barbarian sounded the horn of siege and left the Youzhou infantry army as a general who served as the ward of Fengxiang Army. After saying something to Xie Xici, the middle-aged man who was shot through the shoulder by a stray arrow yesterday once again drew his sword to the battlefield.

He said with a smile.

"General Xie, please relax. You can sit on the bench high on the top of the city. Let's see how our Beiliang border army retreats to the enemy!"

In the Central Plains, Liyang Army, who is a captain or a miscellaneous general, may be bragged about as a general by others.

But in Beiliang, only Lao Liang Wang Xu Xiao was the only one who took this honor. Yuan Zuozong and Yan Wenluan were unable to do so, and Chen Zhibao and Chu Lushan, the two new and old guardians of Beiliang, could not do so.

In addition to the Youzhou cavalry that once fought side by side outside the pass, the Xinliang King Xu Fengnian is still rarely respected as a general, and is more just a prince.

Therefore, Xie Xici was "respected" with his surname "respected name" as the general.

Definitely not a good intention.

As the deputy general of Liuzhou and the direct general of Fengxiang and Linyao towns, Xie Xiqian seemed to be completely disregarded by this offense, and always looked like water, watching the general leave with great strides.

During the whole day, Bubazhu had more than 2,000 lonely ghosts in a foreign land.

After discussing with the cavalry generals, the commander of the ten thousand steppa baba began to withdraw his troops.

There were only 600 infantrymen guarding the city at the border of Beiliang.

The city lord guard who almost died in battle was dragged down by a monk soldier, spat a mouthful of blood and shouted in the direction of Liuzhou Deputy General: "Fuck your mother Xie Xiquan!"

There were six hundred people left, except for less than one hundred old soldiers in Youzhou, the rest were all refugees and young and strong.

Both sides were full of hatred for the young man who remained motionless from beginning to end.

When Beimang was about to retreat,

Xie Xici had already ordered: "The monks and soldiers followed me out of the city, regardless of the cost, and would entangle them for at least three hours."

This kind of behavior of standing by and watching during the war but ending up making contributions after the war has not been seen once in the Beiliang border where military laws are as good as mountains.

Xie Xici didn't explain a word.

The middle-aged monk from Lantuo Mountain who was rescued as a military general guarding the city, hesitated for a moment when he followed Xie Xici down the city. Finally, he asked: "General Xie, do you want to inform the Linyao Army Town? Take it together with the group of Bubazhans?"

This monk is also a top figure in Mount Lanta, and he is very outstanding in both Buddhism and cultivation.

One method is connected to all methods.

Through the secret words of the woman Bodhisattva before leaving, he had learned that the cavalry of Yuluan's sword army would turn around urgently and cooperate with them to intercept Bubazhu.

But for some reason, Xie Xiquan shook his head and said, "No."

The monk couldn't figure it out, but he didn't say much.

After all, Xie Xici is the main general.

The middle-aged monk has already experienced the terrible aspects of the Northern Liang military law.

No matter how dissatisfied the two thousand infantry guarding the city were, no matter how close Xie Xiqiu was to watch, everyone was still willing to die!

He was just full of suspicion and had only heard of military generals on the battlefield since ancient times. Apart from the few people in history who were afraid that his achievements would be too high, he only disliked his lack of military achievements. This young man named Xie was very strange.

After leading the monks out of the city, Xie Xiqiu turned his head and looked at the vast city of Fengxiang Army Town, and murmured to himself.
