Chapter 511
If the Youzhou cavalry is not included in the mixed cavalry in Liaodong and western Liaoning, there are mainly two branches of Yuyang and Shanggu.
The Hulu were good at shooting, and the people in Youzhou were also good at shooting. As the main force of the northeastern frontiers to deal with the Huns and Wuhuan during the Han Dynasty, the peace between the Han Xuan and the Hu people for many years left the two armies useless until the troubled times came.
Yuyang Tuqi made its mark in the battle of Hebei last year. On the other hand, Shanggu Tuqi was a powerful soldier known as "the control of tens of thousands" and trained Geng Yan and Jing Dan, the two generals. However, Geng Kuang was full of "hiding his shortcomings" in order to retreat safely, he did not participate in the final battle. The people next door were all snatched by the Yuyang people next door.
Until today, the decisive battle with the Red Eyebrows, the Upper Valley Turks arrived at the last moment. As they joined the battlefield, the war was completely out of suspense.
The general determined the character of a team. Yuyang Tuqi followed the rash man Gai Yan, using the fighting style of fighting for life and advancing quickly.
However, under the leadership of Kou Xun, the Knights of the Upper Valley were quite prepared. They arrived at the battlefield on pack horses, changed into battle horses, and then formed a formation. Only then did they calmly rushed towards the Red Eyebrow Army, which had just been defeated and ran all over the world. They did not stop, but instead fought against the rabbit and slowly drove away the killing.
Kou Xun immediately stood up and stared at the situation nervously. Although he had a military post and was not unfamiliar with military affairs, he mainly worked as a civil servant. He could still look at the overall situation during the march, but he was still a little dazzled after the battle, so he completely delegated his power to several lieutenants, allowing them to play freely, just for fear of making mistakes.
Fortunately, Chimei was defeated and was attacked from behind, and suddenly became in chaos. Elite thunderbolts defeated their troops. For a moment, they were like cutting melons and vegetables. Three thousand cavalry could chase 30,000 people.
The Yuyang soldiers in the south have also defeated Yang Yin's troops. Gai Yan's personal connections have been to the north with more than a thousand cavalry with the remaining strength. The two Youzhou cavalry are like two hunting dogs, assisting the "master" in the fifth rein to hunt the Red Eyebrow.
As the art of war says: the enemy runs around, the soldiers are scattered, or they wing on both sides or cover them in front and behind, and their generals can be captured.
But they failed to catch Fan Chong in the end. Not to mention the defeated soldiers who scattered after the collapse, there were still 20,000 or 30,000 people who were defeated and retreated with Fan Chong, but were forced into a large undried swamp by the Wei army and used the muddy ground to resist the cavalry.
In the south, the Yuyang Tuqi, who was addicted to killing, accidentally rushed in and was killed dozens of times by counterattack. The Tuqi of Shanggu also wanted to continue chasing in, but was recalled by Kou Xun's Mingjin.
"The defiled Juze, and the advance and retreat gradually faded. This is a dangerous place for the rider. The reason why the clear generals avoided and the secret generals were defeated is that they cannot be chased!"
Kou Xun adhered to the principle of caution and asked the lieutenants to take the wings of the Shanggu till the north of the Hancheng, and he rushed to the Wucai Banner to visit the fifth reunion. How to fight this battle is still the emperor.
"I am a general, Guangyang Prefect Kou Xun, pay homage to Your Majesty, Long live Your Majesty!"
This was the first time Kou Xun saw the fifth relationship, but unlike Gai Yan, who was unruly and disgraceful, Kou Xun's etiquette was quite sufficient.
The fifth reunion asked Kou Xun to be polite and looked at him, "I often regard Jing Sunqing as my confidant, and Sun Qing also has a right-hand arm in Youzhou. One arm is Yuyang Gaiyan, and the other arm is Kou Ziyi! Today, the left and right arms of the northern country are here, but they knocked down Chimei, and only made Sun Qing the only one who became the governor of Ganzhou."
It turned out that after quelling the Youzhou rebellion at the end of last year, Jing Dan was concerned about the confrontation between the emperor and the Red Eyebrows, and knew that this determined the future trend of the Central Plains. After sending the Yuyang soldiers, he asked the Shanggu to rush south.
The reason why it is led by "civil official" Kou Xun is quite meaningful.
"I can let the prefect of Yuyang Wang Liang go south, but in the end I chose Ziyi. Do you know why?"
At that time, Jing Dan's illness still did not improve. He talked to Kou Xun: "Your Majesty's imperial doctor and Liaodong Shen Tang are useless. I am afraid that I will not live long. Even if I am lucky enough to live a few more years, I will not be able to stay in Youzhou again... Alas, I can't worry about this place. Looking at the court and the country, the only one who is most suitable for the emperor to shepherd the people of the North Province for the sake of the emperor is Ziyi!"
If Kou Xun had not been Kou Xun, the county town would have almost disappeared when the rebellion broke out. Of course, another reason is that when Jing Dan first arrived in Shanggu, Kou Xun, who was Gongcao, recommended him to Geng. The two had a close relationship. In contrast, Wang Liang was an old subordinate of Wu and Han. Although they both belonged to Youzhou, the Shanggu system and the Yuyang system also competed. Does anyone get close to each other?
But Jing Dan knew that Kou Xun had defected to the fifth reunion too late, and he must be ranked behind Peng Chong and others in terms of qualifications, so he wanted him to come to Heji again and asked the emperor to see Kou Xun's talents with his own eyes.
Kou Xun agreed with tears at that time. In order not to let Jing Dan down, he had to leave a good impression on the fifth reunion.
He came from the Gu Da clan, not only spoke properly, but also had a moderate figure. He met under the car, but he won the good impression of a group of men and staff officers. He nodded and thought to each other: "I thought the officials from the border of Youzhou were all vulgar martial artists like Wu Han and Gai Yan..."
As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of horse hooves sounded, and the man nearly nine feet tall came on his horse, with broken arrows and blood stains on his vest.
He was impatient and rode until he got off the horse while guarding Langwei. He held something in his hand and walked towards the fifth reunion with great strides. This momentum and the murderous aura that had just ended the bloody battle, which made the guards unable to help but want to touch the hilt of the knife!
The person who came was Gai Yan. The sweat from his forehead made his vision blurry. He just wiped it with his hands, but wiped the blood on it, which made it even more costly.
So Gai Yan ignored Ye Kou Xun and others, walked by in a daze, and only bowed to the fifth reunion who was surrounded by the crowd and the axe and cart, wearing a cloak, and picked up the things in his hand and presented them.
"Your Majesty, the head of the Red Eyebrow Chief Yang Yin is here!"
Poor Yang Yin, who was able to escape from Ao Cang, but could not escape from He Ji, was finally killed by Gai Yan.
Wu Lun was only interested in Fan Chong, so he didn't even bother to look at the stairs carefully. Seeing Gai Yan coming alone, he had a bad premonition and asked anxiously: "Where is Wenyuan?"
Gai Yan was stunned: "Ma Guowei was later reorganizing the army to surround the bandits to prevent them from escaping, so that the generals would come first."
Kou Xun had just arrived and didn't understand what had happened, but Di Wu Ren immediately reacted.
"Ma Yuan is helping Gaiyan!"
Previously, because Gai Yan was concerned about Ma Yuan's safety, he made an agreement with Zhang Zong, and almost trapped friendly forces from the siege. He was removed from his post by the Fifth Reun and only appointed a "fake general" as a crime and made meritorious service.
After Ma Yuan knew about this, he specially asked him to show off his head first.
If you take too much responsibility for yourself and get the credit, this is Ma Yuan's style.
Wu Lun then laughed at others and said, "Wenyuan really treats his subordinates like babies and innocent children."
Seeing that Gai Yan was covered in blood and sweat, he thoughtfully ordered the men to wipe him off. If it was Ma Yuan, the fifth reunion would have wiped him personally, but the closeness of the king was particularly precious, and Gai Yan could not return the throne.
It was not until a moment later that the situation on the battlefield became more stable. The Wei army had already forced to the swamp and surrounded the remnants of 20,000 to 30,000 Red Eyebrows, and Ma Yuan came to the central army.
Fifth Lun saw a car coming from the leopard tail flag from afar and frowned. Because Ma Yuan was unruly in character, he would never ride a car if he could ride a horse. Then he looked at the person lying on it, wrapped in a horse leather, and did not move. Combined with Gai Yan, Ma Yuan had been seriously injured in the assault before, and his heart was shocked!
Fortunately, when the vehicle approached, I saw that Ma Yuan was lying but moving, so I felt a little relieved.
Ma Yuan insisted on getting off the car, and refused to let someone help him. He only relied on the three-foot-foot-mounted ring knife station to move towards the fifth reunion step by step. When he got closer, he wanted to abandon the knife and continue moving forward, but the fifth reunion had already stepped forward a few steps to support him.
Ma Yuan's calf was almost penetrated by a spear, and a blood hole was penetrated. Fortunately, the bone was not cut. Although it was simply bandaged, it still overflowed with blood.
"Your Majesty..." Ma Yuan had a lot of words to say.
Wu Lun's eyes were all focused on his calf: "Can you deal with it?"
"Skin trauma..." Ma Yuan wanted to "apologize" first, but the fifth reunion did not give him a chance to speak. He changed his usual intimate behavior as Ma Yuan, and scolded him with a stern face:
"Last year, Wan Xiu hit Longyou and rolled down the mountain and injured his waist. He also said that it was a 'skin trauma' that didn't get tight. What was the result? After a winter, Junyou couldn't get off the bed!"
It has only been a few years in troubled times, and the heroes who fought with Di Wu Lun were disabled: Jing Dan was seriously ill, Wan Xiu was injured, and Geng Chun also broke his shoulder during the battle in Hebei, causing him to walk with his neck tilted, no longer as tall and proud as he was when he was young.
Wu Han was still stubborn and injured his feet when he was in Hebei. Now he is jumping around in Longxi like nothing is wrong.
The sword has no eyes, and the general is still like this, and the cruelty of the war can be seen.
Wu Lun didn't want Ma Yuan to die on the battlefield before he died in battle, but ended in pain due to cervix, so he waved his hand and said:
"Imperial Doctor, come quickly to get the strong wine."
The fifth relationship was in Chang'an and asked people to distillate "bite wine" with grain, and then placed the bitter wine in the set of instruments of the royal family and princes distilled "Xian Lu" in the Han Dynasty, and finally obtained the distilled wine, which was far less purity than later alcohol.
They are mainly used in medicine, especially Jinchuang. Preservation of celadons disinfected with boiling boiling water is also a Han Dynasty skill, and the fifth reunion is only slightly improved.
There is not much spirit, so don’t think about ordinary soldiers. It is mainly used for general Jin Chuang above the school lieutenant. It is said that human life is not high or low, but it has priority. I have tried it several times since this time I went east and the effect is pretty good.
The fifth reunion asked the imperial doctor to immediately disinfect Ma Yuan in the tent and reband it. He was unwilling to refuse, and he also picked up the porcelain bottle and asked him jokingly.
"Does Wenyuan want the imperial doctor to come, or do you come in person?"
Now it is not as good as back then. Of course, it is still the imperial physician. The fifth reun was sitting opposite him and watching them fiddling with Ma Yuan.
Ma Yuan was proud and rejected the chopsticks that the imperial doctor wanted to stuff into his mouth. After a word of the fifth reunion, he asked about his battles before and after.
Established in the palace, the imperial physician team, which had been instilled with a lot of knowledge by His Majesty, carefully wiped Ma Yuan's legs with a clean cloth and did not care about the fine cleaning of the filth.
At this time, it should be just a little pain. Ma Yuan's face did not change and reported to the fifth reunion before and after the battle.
It was painful until the boiled liquor poured on his wound little by little! Ma Yuan's tone paused for a moment, and then he continued to speak, as if nothing had happened.
When the imperial doctor treated it almost the same, he applied the wound to their ancestors' golden sore medicine. When he wrapped it up, Ma Yuan was sweating all over his body, but his brows did not frown.
He was almost talking about the place where Gai Yan ran his horse and killed Yang Yin. He was in the middle of the day. He smelled the smell of wine in the tent and suddenly became greedy and looked at the fifth reunion: "Your Majesty, is there any wine in the army?"
"Yes, the wine brewed by the queen, I know Wenyuan is waiting to drink it, and I will go and get it to celebrate your merits."
Ma Yuan shook his head and pointed at the remaining half of the bottle of liquor: "Today's hard work, drink liquor!"
Wu Lun shook his head: "If you can't drink strong wine, it will burn a hole in the stomach and intestines, but there will be bitter wine."
Bitter wine is a drinking liquor that has not been distilled twice. It has a lower degree than strong liquor. The fifth remedy is also a bit of painkiller.
"Wen Yuan drinks, I only drink the Queen's brew."
The fifth reunion asked someone to drink a small glass of bitter wine for Ma Yuan, but he poured the rice wine made by his wife and touched Ma Yuan. He drank it all in one go and looked at Ma Yuan with a smile.
Of course, Ma Yuan was not willing to be outdone. Looking at the "bitter wine" in front of him that was clearer than rice wine, it was indeed very exciting to smell it, but he rode a strong horse and slept with a strong woman in his life. How could the wine go? He also raised his head and drank it all!
The Queen’s wine is delicious, the millet wine is sweet, lingering in the mouth, and the fifth remedy is warm in the stomach.
But Ma Yuan felt uncomfortable. His expression was calm when dealing with the wound. His nose and eyes were twisted together. His mouth couldn't help but open, and even coughed. After all, it was an unprecedented experience.
"Wenyuan was not afraid of the serious injury of Yashi, but was disgusted by bitter wine. This matter must not be spread."
If the fifth reunification had known this, he would only laugh and let someone deliver water to Ma Rong.
Because the mouth is bitter and spicy, no one wants to drink this wine, so it is called "bite wine". The fifth rein was vomited just after trying it out.
This TM is even harder than Jiang Xiaobai!
Ma Yuan finally recovered easily, and the scorching energy was slightly relieved. When he was savoring, the tingling and bitterness were similar to his defeat and trapped? For a moment, he laughed with the fifth reunion. The two of them pointed at each other while laughing, and the more they laughed, they couldn't stop for a long time.
The king and his ministers were laughing in the tent. The tall Gai Yan, who was standing outside, turned his head curiously and looked in. He only smelled a smell of wine. After sniffing, he licked his lips. He remembered that after the Ao Cang battle that day, when he presented the "warm" wine to Ma Yuan, no one had ever been so happy.
"What wine did the Guowei drink so happy?"
Perhaps, it is not the wine that makes people happy, but people.
Gai Yan has always not understood that Wu Han and Ma Yuan are like this, but they are all loyal to the fifth relationship. Why didn’t he see the spirit of Emperor Wei? He just shook his head secretly.
After laughing, Ma Yuan bowed his head to the fifth reunion and sighed: "I was careless for a moment and was defeated by Fan Chong. If the army had not arrived, it might have ruined the big thing."
Wu Lun only looked at him: "Even if there is a thousand-mile horse, there will be a time when the horse will lose its hooves. If you had not dragged the Red Eyebrow, you would not have won today. In my opinion, you and Gai Yan have won five battles and five victories. In the end, the formation was fought against Yang Yin, and they made great contributions!"
Speaking of this new and chaotic era, there were originally two idiom masters in history. One was Liu Xiu, who put it aside, restrained himself and served the public, strong winds and grass, overcome all obstacles, and were equal, not satisfactory, and were heart-to-heart. It was all about Xiu'er.
The second only to him is Ma Yuan, such as Ma Liang, who is getting stronger and stronger in old age and has a late bloomer.
But now, there is a fifth relationship. Inadvertently, he stole several Liu Xiu. Today, he used another idiom to underestimate Ma Yuan's small defeat.
In the view of the fifth reunion, the Far Winning General has flaws, which is not a bad thing. It is better to lose his horse than to lose his horse.
But how could this sentence comfort the proud and proud Ma Yuan easily? He was broken invincible. The wound has been cured now, but he still can't stand. I don't know how long it will take to take care of him. He patted his legs and said:
"No matter what, I will be broken by Fan Chong."
It is rare to see Ma Yuan like this. Di Wulun shook his head and laughed. He asked someone to lift the camp tent and pointed to the Red Eyebrow Army trapped in the dry lake for miles away and said: "Since ancient times, the battle has been judged by the results."
"It is better to chase the remaining bravery! Next, you will win the battle."
Wu Lun patted Ma Yuan's injured leg and thigh:
Chapter completed!
