Chapter 609 Xianbei Surviving in the Cleft (Supplement 19/20)
"The Han cavalry is here!"
The Xianbei cavalry in Bingzhou saw a team of high-level heavy cavalry full of clothes rushing towards him. The earth was trembling, and the Beiwei Army raised the battle axe!
With the inertia of the war horses charging, the Beiwei Army broke into the Xianbei cavalry, and the battle axe easily killed the Xianbei light cavalry in front of him!
The Xianbei light cavalry had almost no decent armor, at most only half-body armor. Facing the Beiwei Army with strong hand-to-hand combat ability, in the hand-to-hand combat with the Beiwei Army, many Beiwei Army cavalry were unable to kill many Beiwei Army cavalry, but instead he was killed by the Beiwei Army cavalry!
Niu Gao's iron mace hit the chest of a Xianbei light cavalry, and its sternum broke in an instant. The Xianbei cavalry fell off their horses and lost its breath at all.
With his own force, Niu Gao rushed around a group of Xianbei cavalry, two iron maces blocked and killed Xianbei cavalry. At least dozens of Xianbei cavalry died under his fierce attack!
Yue Fei swept through the spear and killed two or three Xianbei cavalry at the same time. He did not feel how powerful this Xianbei cavalry was.
It is obvious that this is just a cavalry of the ordinary Xianbei tribe.
"They were not the cavalry that attacked Mayi, they might just be herders."
Yue Fei and Niu Gao easily defeated more than a thousand Xianbei cavalrymen and found that they were just nearby Xianbei tribes and herdsmen who came out to plunder the world while the chaos was in the chaos.
When Yue Fei and Niu Gao led the Beiwei army to Mayi, the Xianbei cavalry that attacked Mayi had left, and the local weapons and food were plundered.
The Beiwei Army's equipment was too heavy, and it was even faster than the light cavalry of the Xianbei tribe.
The situation Yue Fei and Niu Gao are facing now is a bit similar to encountering horse thieves on the grassland. They are uncertain and want to defeat them, they must first find these group of Xianbei cavalry.
Zhang Liao returned to Mayi and found that the station was burned and frowned slightly.
This group of Xianbei cavalry made Zhang Liao kill.
"According to the information provided by Miss Xueyue, this group of cavalrymen has the war eagle of the Iron Eagle Scout, so they can detect our movements in advance. It is very difficult for us to encircle them."
Yue Fei informed Zhang Liao of the information about Tuoba Xianbei.
The Iron Eagle Scout was originally a special group of troops of the Northern Wei Dynasty. Therefore, other Northern Wei generals may also have the Iron Eagle Scout.
When facing such an enemy, both Yue Fei and Zhang Liao felt very difficult.
The opponent mainly uses light cavalry and has a vision. It is very difficult to find and annihilate the Tuoba Xianbei cavalry.
"It's better to try to find their tribe. They currently have a population of more than 200,000, and even more, and they can hide in the mountains of Yanmen County."
"Send a large number of scout cavalry to follow this Xianbei cavalry to see where their purpose is to go."
Although Yue Fei was able to defeat the Tuoba Xianbei, the Tuoba Xianbei cavalry had always been able to avoid Yue Fei. In other words, Yue Fei could not seek a battle.
"The two generals, Miss Xueyue, judged that the Xianbei tribes may migrate to Xihe County and the Hetao Plain."
When Yue Fei and Zhang Liao were discussing, Xueyue's scout had already found out where the Xianbei tribe was going.
Generally speaking, under the premise that the princes of the Han Empire had already divided their territory, if a force wanted to rise, they could only choose to survive in a gap.
The place where Tuoba Xianbei was chosen was Chutian, Xihe County, Hetao area where Lao Qin forces intertwined.
When Yue Fei and Zhang Liao attacked the Tuoba Xianbei, they could escape to Lao Qin's territory, and when Lao Qin attacked, they could escape to Chu Tian's territory.
Moreover, it can also attack unstable counties such as Yunzhong County and Shuofang County.
"This group of Tuoba Xianbei is really cunning. It seems that they have done it intentionally."
“That’s exactly that.”
"Go forward and chase after me now!"
Yue Fei and Zhang Liao speed up the marching!
The Beiwei Army and the Majestic Legion joined forces and marched quickly!
Tens of thousands of Xianbei cavalry protected the population of the Xianbei tribe and went to Xihe County.
The Beiwei Army and the mighty army caught up with the real Tuoba Xianbei cavalry, and there were thousands of cavalry responsible for the cut-off. The Beiwei Army and the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry immediately launched an assault!
Zhang Liao broke into the Tuoba Xianbei cavalry with his halberd, and its characteristics made the morale of the Tuoba Xianbei cavalry rapidly decline!
Hu Sanniang used two swords to kill several Xianbei cavalry!
The Beiwei Army broke into the enemy's formation with its impact power, and then fought in close combat. With its heavy iron armor, it basically attacked with all its strength and did not pay much attention to defense!
Wen Yang led a small team of Bingzhou wolf cavalry to penetrate from the flank, directly causing the collapse of thousands of Xianbei cavalry, just like the last straw that overwhelmed the camel!
"Continue chasing!"
Yue Fei and Zhang Liao's army had no time to clean the battlefield and chased them to the edge of the Yellow River!
Yue Fei asked someone to spread the map: "All the troops can attack Yunzhong County, Wuyuan County, and Shuofang County along the Yellow River, encircle their rear routes, and wait for an opportunity to attack. The troops and horses directly pursue the Xianbei troops from Yanmen County and attack Xihe County."
Zhang Liao asked: "West of the Yellow River, it is the territory of the Guanzhong Army. They have garrisons in the local area. Will we allow us to enter Xihe County and chase the Xianbei?"
“That’s exactly the trouble.”
Yue Fei looked at the map and the Zhou Bo army of the brave old Qin was stationed in Xihe County and confronted Bingzhou. They would not easily allow Bingzhou troops to enter Xihe County and a war broke out.
The Tuoba Xianbei really survived in the cracks.
"If the Guanzhong Legion did not allow us to cross the river, they might raise tigers."
This is exactly what Yue Fei is worried about.
At present, the Guanzhong army of the Qianlong Qin Dynasty captured Shangjun and Xihe County in Bingzhou, controlling the territory west and south of the Yellow River, while Chutian occupied the territory east and north of the Yellow River. Both sides used the Yellow River as the boundary. During the National War, a temporary truce was temporarily halted.
The Tuoba Xianbei intentionally provoked a war between two major forces to benefit from it.
Things became quite troublesome because they involved the interests of the two princes.
"Let the civil servants go to Chang'an City to negotiate."
In the end, Yue Fei and Zhang Liao stationed troops on the edge of the Yellow River, waiting for the reply from Xianyang City.
If the Guanzhong Army allowed them to pursue the Xianbei tribe, they could cross the Yellow River and chase the Tuoba Xianbei.
If the Guanzhong Legion did not allow them to chase the Tuoba Xianbei, then they could only choose to withdraw, which would give the Guanzhong Legion a headache for the Tuoba Xianbei.
Although if the Tuoba Xianbei becomes bigger, the Bingzhou of Chutian will inevitably be affected in the end, the first one will be affected will definitely be the Xihe area.
...
Xihe County, the leader of Tuoba Xianbei, organized hundreds of thousands of Xianbei tribes in advance to enter the Xihe area, seize the Ordos Plateau, and refused to leave, grazed here, peeping at Shuofang County, which lacked garrisons.
"We need time to rest and recuperate from Chang'an City."
