Chapter eight hundred and forty seventh bare feet are not afraid of wearing shoes
On October 19th, thirty miles southwest of Guifang City, Mutaizhai.
The Alliance Horse Army arrived at the Guifang one after another and entered their respective ambush sites. The Alliance Infantry Army was still advancing on both sides of the Suotoushui River, walking in the snow, and getting closer and closer to the Guifang.
Li Fengyun and the Alliance Commander, under the escort of the Thunder First Army, traveled day and night, and rushed to Mutaizhai, where he was scheduled to be stationed. Mutaizhai was built against the mountains and rivers, and about thousands of the King of the King of the King of the Zuihe lived in the mountains and forests around the village. The Alliance Horse Army rumbling and murderous intent soared into the sky, scaring the crowd of the village to the face and frightened. The leader of the King of the Zuihe who led the way entered the village to communicate in time and quickly stabilized the people's hearts. However, Li Fengyun had no intention of entering the village, but ordered the soldiers to camp and rest in the mountains and forests outside the village. At the same time, in order to keep the secret, he asked the village gate to continue to close, and the people in the village could not leave.
In the afternoon, Yun, the chief of the King of the King of the Suihe tribe, and his younger brother Lei, rushed to Mutaizhai after hearing the news and reported the emergency military information. Yesterday, the Taoshui front reported urgently that Chijishi Ashinadula led his army to reinforce. The Turkic army on the west bank of Taoshui had exceeded 30,000 cavalry.
Li Fengyun's expression was immediately solemn. He leaned over to look at the map on the table, pondering and silently. Yuan An, Kong Yingda, Murong Zhili, and Li Mengchang, who had just returned from Panlong Castle, looked at each other, secretly surprised, and a hint of luck and a hint of fear in his heart.
The Turks chose the opportunity to attack very well. If the Alliance army did not win the Maogouchuan victory and still confronted the Xi army on the Wulishui line, they would inevitably be in a dilemma of being attacked from both sides and being extremely passive. Even if Li Fengyun quickly sent troops to support Guifang, it was snowing heavily and the road was difficult to move, and time might not be too late. In this way, even if the King of the King of the Suihe refused to surrender, held on the city and tried his best to hold the Turkic army, it would be impossible to change the situation in Anzhou suddenly subverted, and the alliance would be unable to reverse the crisis in the short term.
However, the alliance's luck has always been very good. Li Fengyun's foresight and strategy is rare in the world. Not only did he command the alliance army to successfully defeat the Xi army before the heavy snow came, but he also made the decision to lure and kill the Turks in advance. In order to make the best use of the favorable opportunity when the news of the Xi tribe's defeat had not yet spread, the alliance army, under his command and urging, rushed north to the ghost side without stopping, preparing to set up a trap to fight the Turks off guard. It was not expected that it would be just right, and it collided head-on with the Turks who entered Anzhou. The exquisite timing was amazing. This was not something that manpower could do, and it could only be thanked for God's favor.
Brothers Yun and Lei looked at Li Fengyun, who was calm and composed, and they were inexplicably confused. Two years ago, they killed Li Fengyun into a state of turmoil, and even thought they had killed him. However, two years later, Li Fengyun not only made a comeback, but even killed the Xi clan into a defeat, forcing King Ah Huizheng and the five tribes of the Xi clan to admit defeat and surrender. The facts were as unreal as dreams. The past life and death enemies formed an alliance to fight against the enemy. The two brothers even leaned under the White Wolf's tent, willing to be driven by it and charge for him. This incredible thing would not even happen in the past, but now it is alive. It is really absurd to think of it, and it makes people feel trance between reality and illusion.
"Ming Gong, the situation is critical. If nothing unexpected happens, Ashinadula may be attacking Taoshui at this moment, and more than 30,000 control strings may be flying in the flat pine forest." Yun quickly stabilized his emotions. When the disaster came, he needed to concentrate on dealing with the crisis and not wasting a slightest time. "The current fighter jets are fleeting against both sides of the enemy and us, so after the Ming Gong fought against Maogouchuan, he rushed north without waiting for a break. And Ashinadula is the same. Since he has already reinforced him, it means that he has made a determination, has clear goals, and will enter Anzhou as quickly as possible, defeat his opponent at the lowest cost, and our ghost side is the first to attack, and is in danger."
"Ming Gong, the Turkic soldiers are approaching, and they are coming fiercely. There must be a bloody battle under the Guifang City. The most urgent task is to make complete preparations and not be careless and underestimate the enemy." Lei was still as honest as ever. As soon as he said this, the atmosphere in the tent suddenly became wrong. Yuan An, Kong Yingda and others all looked at each other and were very dissatisfied.
Li Fengyun was cautious and nodded, agreeing deeply.
Lei's words are quite implicit and not very straightforward. In fact, his idea is completely correct. Now that the situation has changed, the power balance between the enemy and us has changed, and the basis of the trapping plan set by the alliance before no longer exists. We must immediately re-plan the strategy of attacking the enemy based on the latest changes in the battle situation.
Previously, the Turks had only more than 20,000 control strings on the Taoshui line, and they were interested in sitting in the mountains to watch the tiger fight, waiting for the opportunity to benefit the fisherman, so they were passive and lazy to fight and had limited offensives. But now the Turks believed that the fighter had arrived and they had to attack Anzhou with all their might. Chijishe Ashinadu, of the Southeast Yaqi Banner of the Jiji Southeast, even took action himself and rushed into Anzhou with more than 30,000 control strings. The goal was so big and the offensive was so fierce that it could be imagined.
Although Yun and Lei did not know how many troops Li Fengyun mobilized to the north to Guifang, Li Fengyun and Yuan An and other senior leaders knew it clearly. In order to win this battle, the alliance also tried their best. Except for Li Zixiong, Yang Gongdao was in Panlong Fort, Zhou Zhong, Lai Yuan was in Bai Tan, and Yue Gao led the Third Army of the Alliance to guard the garrison outside the city of the garrison, the rest of the troops went north, including Han Shiyan's Leopard Cavalry, the Mukun tribe led by Su Zhi, the Mohefu tribe led by Mohetunhe, and the main force of the Ahui tribe led by Ahui Chuan, all entered the Guifang battlefield, with a total force of more than 50,000 people, of which the horse army had more than 20,000 cavalry.
However, the combat effectiveness of the Thunder Army was limited, and the Xi tribes fought for several months and suffered consecutive defeats. The soldiers were exhausted physically and mentally. In addition, in order to ensure that the Mukun tribe, the Mohefu tribe and the Ahui tribe would not turn against each other in the last battle, and all the chiefs, some of the governors, the elderly, weak, women and children of these three divisions were hostages. This move will inevitably seriously affect the morale of the troops' control strings. Therefore, even if the alliance's cavalry and infantry army fights together and cooperates tacitly, their combat effectiveness is still a certain distance from the Turkic army that replenishes energy. At most, the two sides are equal in power and evenly matched. In this way, the alliance's strategy of luring the enemy into a siege and killing is not feasible. Even if the enemy is surrounded, it will not be able to be eaten. In the end, it will eventually turn into a bloody battle with both losses.
However, the key is that neither Li Fengyun nor Ashi Naduna would want to defeat both sides.
For Li Fengyun, both sides suffered heavy losses and his strength was greatly reduced. Once the purpose of this attack was not completed, the weak Luo River swept across the Donghu species, so he would not think about it. This would seriously affect his overall planning. The same is true for Ashinaduo Na. He is the backbone of the conservative and peaceful faction of the desert tent and the real power faction. His strength and record directly determine his status and power in the tent, and his status and power directly affect the political trend of the tent and the overall situation of the confrontation between the north and the south. If he suffers heavy losses or even defeats in this battle, the consequences will be disastrous, especially for the tent conservative and peaceful faction of the tent, it will be a heavy blow, and the losses of political interests are immeasurable.
So from a political perspective, Ashi Nadula was very passive in this battle of Guifang. He and Li Fengyun were not at the same level. So what if Li Fengyun could afford to lose, so what if the entire army was wiped out? He was just a chess piece from Zhongtu. The purpose of going out to the frontier was to disrupt the situation outside the frontier. Therefore, even if the alliance was wiped out, Zhongtu was the Ying family. On the contrary, Ashi Nadula could not afford to lose at all. He was in a high position in the tooth position and involved too much political interests. He would not dare to make any mistakes.
But this kind of insight requires a huge amount of rich information and a clear understanding of the general trend of the world. This is Li Fengyun’s innate talent. How many people in this world can overlook the world like Li Fengyun?
Therefore, when Li Fengyun pondered for a long time and decided to continue to carry out the trapping plan, not to mention that Yun and Lei could not understand, even Yuan An, Kong Yingda and others were full of doubts.
Of course, Yun and Lei did not dare to question Li Fengyun's decision. In fact, since Li Fengyun went out of the frontier, they had already shocked and were very awe-inspiring. Especially in Maogouchuan defeated the army of the Ahui Zheng and the Xi clan in a battle of tyrannical destruction, which one is stronger than the Ahui clan alliance of the Xi King Ahui Zheng and the Xi clan? In Yun and Lei's view, the strength of these two is almost the same. Now that the Xi King Ahui Zheng and the Xi clan alliance of the Ahui clan has been defeated by Li Fengyun, Li Fengyun's strength has not only not been reduced, but has made an explosive leap in a short period of time. From this, it is inferred that Ahui Duna and the Turkic army are not Li Fengyun's opponents, and may even be defeated by Li Fengyun's unpredictable means.
The so-called loss-making is nothing more than their analysis and deduction of this battle. They have been beaten by Li Fengyun to kneel down and surrender, and they have no qualifications to question Li Fengyun. However, as far as the current situation is concerned, they really can't think of a way to defeat the Turks. They are eager to know the answer from Li Fengyun's mouth.
Fortunately, Yuan An was "understandable" and questioned Li Fengyun on their behalf, "Since both sides are evenly matched, we no longer have the possibility of encircling and annihilation of the enemy, why do we still have to implement the trapping and killing strategy and insist on both sides? Why not change the strategy, hold on to the city, drag the Turks under the Guifang City, and continue to consume their opponents?"
"I don't have time." Li Fengyun said, "I must defeat the Turks in the shortest time and head north."
"Ming Gong, if we want to lead our troops north, we cannot lose both sides in this battle." Yuan An said with a wry smile.
"What am I afraid of?" Li Fengyun sneered, "I am not afraid of those who wear shoes barefoots. Not to mention the defeat of both sides, I am not afraid of even the jade and stones are burned. But does Ashi Na Duna dare? He dares to die with me?"
