Chapter 252 Return to Pyeongchang
Li Yu raised his head and said, "Let's go!"
Tribal Hall.
Not only were the generals of the Zhou army present, but also some leaders of the Su Nu tribe.
Seeing Li Yu coming, the general of Zhou State intervened and bowed, while the leader of Su Nu tribe shook his chest and bowed.
Li Yu waved his hand to everyone, signaling everyone not to be too polite.
He looked closely and found a sand table in the center of the hall.
He walked to the sand table and looked down.
Meng Liao immediately explained to him: "Your Highness, this is Mount Pulan! At present, the main force of the Hayi Army is stationed in Mount Pulan. In addition, they have built more than ten camps on the north and south sides of Mount Pulan. It is obvious that the Hayi people plan to use Mount Pulan as the boundary to divide the territory of the Su Nu tribe into two and cut them into two parts!"
When Li Yu heard this, he frowned and said, "The wolf's ambition is punishable!"
“That’s right!”
Meng Liao nodded heavily.
Li Yu asked: "Have you figured out how to deal with it?"
Chen Kai said seriously: "Your Highness, the ambition of the Hayi army to annex the Su Nu tribe is obvious. If the Hayi people cannot be expelled and allowed to station in the Pulan Mountain area for a long time, then the Su Nu tribe will be eaten up by the Hayi people little by little!"
The Su Nu tribe was annexed by the Hayi tribe, which indicates that Zhou State will be in crisis again.
Gao Tu said: "So...so, we have... nothing to hesitate about, this... this battle..."
Qin Shengying continued: "In this battle, we have no choice. We can fight, and we can't fight either!"
"Um!"
Gao Tu nodded heavily.
Li Yu asked, "How to fight?"
Gao Tu said: "Pull out... pull out... pull out the nails!"
He pointed to the sand table and said, "No...no matter...ha..."
"No matter how many camps the Hayi Army has set up, we need to pull them out one by one. We must not let the Hayi people gain a foothold in the territory of the Su Nu tribe!"
"Um!"
Gao Tu focused on the key points again.
Li Yu has no objection.
He asked, "What about the specific tactics?"
Chen Kai replied: "We can divide our troops into multiple directions and advance in unison, and at the fastest speed, we will eliminate all the camps arranged by the people in Ha!
Li Yu looked at Chen Kai and waited for him to continue talking.
"The Hayi tribe is a top-ranked large tribe in the territory of Xiaoyang Kingdom. Whether it is territory or population, it will be far superior to the Su Nu tribe. Once the war falls into a stalemate and enters a war of attrition, it will be extremely unfavorable to us. Therefore, this battle must be decided quickly, and we should defeat the Hayi army at the fastest speed!"
Li Yu rubbed his chin, thought for a while, nodded, feeling that Shen Kai's words were reasonable.
He said: "I am an amateur in leading troops to fight, but I cannot be without a commander in the army!"
As he spoke, he looked at Meng Liao, Chen Kai, Gao Tu, Qin Shengying and others and asked, "Generals, who would like to temporarily serve as the head commander of the army?"
When everyone heard this, they looked at each other, and no one immediately made a statement.
Meng Liao knew what he was.
With his current ability, he will command a army of thousands of people and tens of thousands of people to fight a hand-to-hand battle with the enemy. That's no problem.
But he had no confidence in himself to command tens of thousands of troops and fight a large-scale battle with the enemy.
Gao Shengying wanted to compete for the position of commander.
But she was a woman after all, and she had just arrived for reinforcements.
She was the head coach since she arrived, and she was worried that the soldiers below would be dissatisfied.
When the two armies fight, they demand that the whole country be united. If there is a gap between the generals, then the battle will not be fought.
She turned to look at her husband and signaled him with her eyes. This opportunity is too rare now, you should stand up and fight for it.
Of course, Gao Tu saw his wife's hint. He took a deep breath, cleared his throat, and said, "Dian...Dian...Dian..."
He had been in the palace for a long time, but there was no further information on the palace.
Chen Kai, who was standing beside him, said firmly: "Your Highness, I am not talented. I am willing to lead all the soldiers, repel the Hayi army, and regain the lost territory of the Su Nu tribe!"
Seeing that Chen Kai volunteered, Li Yu smiled and did not think much, saying, "Okay! General Shen will temporarily serve as the head commander of the entire army!"
Tsk!
Qin Shengying shook his head in his heart, and glared at Gao Tu with dissatisfaction.
What a great opportunity, if you don’t take the initiative to fight for it, how is it now? It’s on Chen Kai’s head again!
Gao Tu smiled bitterly.
He didn't want to fight for it, but was nervous and stuttered even harder. He couldn't speak out the words stuck in his throat for a long time.
After Chen Kai was appointed as the head coach of the army, he immediately began to exercise his head coach's responsibilities.
He mixed Zhou army and Su Nu army together and formed a total of forty battalions.
The number of people in each battalion is about one thousand, led by a lieutenant.
At present, the Hayi Army has arranged more than ten camps at the foot of the Pulan Mountain and on both sides of the north and south.
Chen Kai gave the soldiers of these forty battalions specific offensive tasks respectively.
A battalion will attack smaller camps.
To attack medium-sized camps, two or three battalions will be used.
He himself commanded ten battalions, totaling 10,000 troops, and directly attacked the main camp built by the Hayi Army at the foot of the Pulan Mountain.
Mount Pulan is not only a famous mountain of the Su Nu tribe, but also a famous mountain of the entire Xiaoyang Kingdom.
It is formed by a volcano and has a strange shape. It is large at the bottom, thin in the middle, and large at the top. From a distance, it looks like a huge mushroom.
Many tribes in the Xiaoyang Kingdom regard Pulan Mountain as a sacred mountain, and believe that the ancestors of the Xiaoyang Kingdom were born here.
The Hayi tribe has been coveting Pulan Mountain for a long time, so Bettan took the opportunity to occupy Pulan Mountain this time and planned to forcibly classify Pulan Mountain as owned by the Hayi tribe.
Li Yu did not participate in this war.
It’s not that he didn’t want to go, but that he was delayed by something else.
The merchants from the Fanhu Kingdom have now arrived in Pingchang City with a batch of sugarcane.
After receiving Zhang Hong's message, Li Yu was suddenly excited.
He didn't bother to participate in the war against the Hayi Army and set off immediately and returned to Pyeongchang City.
Lu Fang did not walk with him, but stayed in the Su Nu tribe.
The soldiers fought in front, and the Su Nu tribe belonged to the core of the rear, and there was no mistake at all. Someone must stay here.
In addition, Lu Fang also planned to promote the etiquette, even language and writing of Zhou State in the Su Nu tribe.
Li Yu felt that Lu Fang had a good idea, so he specially kept Chu Ren, Yan Wen, Feng Tang, Guan Ying and others to assist Lu Fang.
He rushed back to Pingchang City with Jinwu, Lu Chi, Zhu Da and others.
In the prefect's mansion, Li Yu met the merchant of the Hu who sent sugarcane.
In terms of race, the Fanhu people are not much different from the Xiaoyang people. They are both dark-skinned, flat-feeling, not tall, and have a thin figure.
But in terms of dressing, they are closer to Zhou people.
Perhaps it was because these Fanhu merchants often had business relationships with the Zhou people, and were deeply influenced by the Zhou people in terms of their living habits.
This time, there were two large carts of sugarcane brought by the Fanhu people.
Li Yu walked to the carriage and looked at it.
Jinwu immediately jumped into the car, picked up a sugar cane, and handed it to Li Yu.
Li Yu took it and looked carefully. That’s right! This is sugarcane!
A merchant of Fanhu in his forties rubbed his hands and smiled at him, bowed and said, "Your Highness, we have worked so hard to get the sugarcane of this car. We have traveled almost every inch of Fanhu's land. We don't know how many pairs of shoes have been worn out. During this period, we even know how many companions were tired and exhausted..."
Listening to his endless talk, Li Yu knew what he wanted.
He reached into his arms, took out a silver note of 200 taels of silver, handed it forward, and asked with a smile: "Is this enough?"
The Fanhu merchant quickly took the silver notes and opened them to see them. His eyes lit up.
But soon he said with a puzzled look on his face: "Your Highness, this...this little money is only enough to provide the exhausted person!"
Chapter completed!
