Chapter 493 : Use the Blood of the Enemy to Replace Our Tears
Originally, I was counting on Zhang Shouyue's old soldiers, those county captains in Liaoxi City, out of loyalty to Zhang Shouyue, to create a little trouble for Gao Yuan, even if it was impossible to resist Gao Yuan's offensive, but Gao Yuan was disgusted It's good too, but Gao Yuan didn't even leave them with this hope.
People's hearts are always the most difficult thing to guess in this world. County lieutenants such as Wang Yulong and He Baotian are not disloyal to Zhang Shouyue. If Zhang Shouyue is still alive, standing in front of them and asking them to fight Gao Yuan to the death, they will definitely say nothing Said, fuck the guy, it's up, life or death, that's not even considered. But now, Zhang Shouyue has passed away, and his two sons, Zhang Shubao, have also died. The remaining one, Zhang Junbao, is actually a heartless thing that kills his father and brother, and it falls into the hands of Gao Yuan. Gao Yuan made a conclusive and indisputable evidence, which made them have no one to pledge allegiance to even if they wanted to.
They are all old, and they have a big family behind them. It is not worth it at all for a Zhang Junbao who is not recognized by their relatives.
Gao Yuan did not attack, firstly because Zhang Junbao fell into his hands, secondly because of the good reputation he had gained in the west of Liaoning in the past few years, and thirdly because he was sure of the county lieutenants who had mastered the last bit of armed force in Liaoxi County their thoughts.
Attacking without attacking, going down without going down, Liaoxi City fell into Gao Yuan's control, just like pinching a snail with ten fingers, with a sure chance, and using this method, the adverse reactions and sequelae of Gao Yuan's seizure of Liaoxi City were completely discarded up. What Gao Yuan wants is a Liaoxi County that can be used, not a Liaoxi County that he has to go around to put out fires after he occupies it, a Liaoxi County that adds chaos to him.
During the day, the gates of Liaoxi City are wide open, and pedestrians are as usual, but at night, the gates will still be closed, and there is still a curfew in the city. Ye Zhong took Ye Feng, followed the last wave of people out of the city, out of Liaoxi City where they stayed for a long time, and walked towards the cavalry camp of the East Zheng Army not far away.
The city gate slowly closed behind them.
The people who went out of the city together watched the two of them walking straight towards the camp of the Eastern Zheng Army, and only glanced at them. In the past two days, small merchants and peddlers have almost surrounded the entire camp of the Eastern Zheng Army. are used to it.
Ye Zhong and Ye Feng didn't care about anyone, they just walked step by step like the big camp, outside the big camp. Quite a few soldiers were cleaning up the mess left by the peddlers outside the camp. Seeing the two coming, several soldiers straightened up and walked towards them. He opened his mouth and was about to speak when suddenly the sound of horseshoes came from behind him.
Ye Zhong also raised his head in surprise, and looked at the horse team that appeared in the distance. At the same time, inside the seemingly undefended camp. There was also the sound of hooves, and two teams of heavily armed cavalry rode out to meet the horse team in the distance.
Ye Zhong's heart skipped a beat, the situation these days. He always thought that the Zhengdong Army had also relaxed, but now it seems that they are loose on the outside and tight on the inside, no matter what the situation in the city is. They have always maintained a state of combat readiness,
Otherwise, they wouldn't react so quickly, if the Liaoxi soldiers in the city did something. If you want to attack Zhengdong Army, you will definitely suffer a big loss. Just from such a small aspect, Ye Zhong's evaluation of Gao Yuan's running the army has reached a new level. Facing opponents who have no fighting spirit, it seems that Liaoxi City can be defeated in one go. Belittle and relax.
Not arrogant in victory, not discouraged in defeat, this is the most basic quality of a strong army.
Immediately afterwards, the loud cheers from the cavalry who went up made Ye Zhong instantly understand who the cavalry were running from a distance. There is only one person who can make these cavalry cheer so much, and that is the general of the Eastern Army, the ruler Gao Yuan.
Ye Zhong stopped, "It's your brother-in-law!" He said to Ye Feng.
At this moment, under the afterglow of the setting sun, the flag fluttering in the distance was already very clear. A tall flag fluttered in the wind and quickly approached them. Turning the corner, when the whole army turned around, Gao Yuan, who was running from a distance, just inserted between them, and the two cavalry changed from preparing to meet the enemy to protecting Gao Yuan. Eyelids twitched several times.
He is a general in charge of the army, so he naturally understands how difficult it is to perform these movements, which seem ordinary to laymen, in a high-speed gallop like clouds and flowing water.
The Qin people defeated the Huns and almost completely destroyed most of the Huns. Now it seems that Gaoyuan has been fulfilled. If the Huns royal court still existed, how could Gaoyuan gather so many Huns cavalry and how could he quickly establish Such a powerful cavalry.
Gao Yuan's methods are also really good, he was able to train the rebellious Huns so well, you must know that the Huns cavalry in the past didn't have many strict tactics, and when fighting against the countries of the Central Plains, they almost always launched a war. It is the sprint of the whole army all over the mountains and plains, relying on the powerful sprint force to penetrate the infantry's defensive formation, and then start the massacre. Once the sprint is unfavorable and cannot penetrate the enemy formation, most of them will turn around and walk away, spying on the left and right, waiting for opportunities Make a decisive battle. This is also the reason why the countries in the Central Plains have nothing to do with the Xiongnu cavalry. Even if they have an absolute advantage in strength, the opponent will not fight you head-on. The infantry will always be on the defensive, but the cavalry will attack anytime and anywhere.
The battle between the Qin State and the Huns seized the opportunity of the Huns to attack the Zhao State. The soldiers blocked the retreat of the Huns and encircled them on several sides. This blocked the Huns in a small space and forced the opponents to fight. Only then has the victory been achieved, but this kind of victory cannot be replicated. Opportunities can be encountered but not sought. In order to achieve this strategic goal, Qin paid the price that Hangu Pass was almost breached by Zhao Mu, and General Yingteng died on the spot.
The Qin people did win, but from the overall level, it was just a miserable victory. Even the king of Qin went into battle shirtless in the end, but the Qin people had a stronger background than the Huns, and one of them had a stronger control The central government can quickly recover, while the Huns, who were already in a loose alliance, can't recover from a setback.
The general loose Huns have now become a sharp knife in Gao Yuan's hands. Ye Zhong can imagine that in time, when tens of thousands of Huns cavalry gather under Gao Yuan's banner, they will have strict command and strict command. What a terrible army it would be.
Looking at the cavalry team rushing towards this direction like a sea tide in the distance, Ye Zhong held Ye Feng's hand tightly. This is Gao Yuan's army, and the young lady of the Ye family is Gao Yuan's wife. This is a good opportunity for the Ye family to regain their chance. At this moment, Ye Zhong completely understood what Ye Tiannan meant.
Ye's era in Yan Kingdom is over, but he can still break out of the cocoon and be reborn. Ye Xiang can endure humiliation and live in Jicheng, but he is unwilling. He is more willing to use the blood of himself and his wife to pay for the collapse of Yan Kingdom. Add a bright red color heavily, and their blood will naturally not flow in vain. He not only successfully placed King Yan in a passive position above morality, but also laid an excellent foreshadowing for Gao Yuan's future replacement.
People like Ye Xiang. Every drop of blood will not be shed in vain.
The front team of cavalry passed in front of the two of them, and the swirls of dust completely drowned them. Ye Feng's eyes widened, and in the smog, he saw the tall man at a glance. All the cavalry wore the same armor, but Ye Feng still recognized Gao Yuan at a glance.
"Brother-in-law!" he yelled.
His cry was insignificant in the sound of rumbling horseshoes, and he himself felt the sound of his shouting. It was impossible for Gao Yuan to hear, and among so many cavalry galloping, it was impossible for Gao Yuan to notice two people dressed as ordinary people standing by the roadside, but he just called out. But Gao Yuanhuo turned his head and looked in the direction they were in. At the same time, he raised one hand.
The cavalry ahead slowed down. However, the cavalry in the rear split into two groups in an instant, passing by the two wings of the cavalry in front. The cavalry at the rear reined in their horses and slowed down at the same time, and the entire galloping cavalry team began to slow down from extremely fast in an instant, slowed down within a breath, and then stopped.
Gao Yuan looked at the two of them with surprise in his eyes.
"Brother-in-law!" Ye Feng called out again, but there was sobs in this call.
Gao Yuan got off his horse, the cavalry in front stepped aside, and he strode towards Ye Feng.
"Feng'er, is that you?"
Ye Feng opened his arms and ran forward, like a chick, he flew into the arms of the old hen. At this moment, the fourteen-year-old boy was showing his fragility and immaturity. He threw himself into Gao Yuan's arms, burst into tears.
"Brother-in-law, father is gone, and mother is also gone."
Gao Yuan's eyes were moist. Although his relationship with Ye Tiannan had a lot of filth, he gave birth to a good daughter who was his wife and a good son. In the future, as many obstacles as possible have been cleared away, but these few points are enough to make Gao Yuan feel sorry for him.
"I know, I know, Feng'er, a man, shed blood but not tears, everything will be fine when you get home. Your parents will not like you, and your sister will scold you for not being a man." " Gao Yuan said.
Ye Feng raised his head, his face was full of tears, although he wanted to hold back, the tears still flowed down uncontrollably.
"Ye Feng, it seems that you haven't made much progress. There's no need to cry. Hatred can only be washed away with blood. Tears will only provoke the ridicule of the enemy. Are you so useless?" Behind Gao Yuan, a voice sounded .
Ye Feng glared at him. He was very familiar with this person. It was Cao Tianci. This person was two years older than him.
"Cao Tianci, I couldn't beat you before, but now I can't. Do you want to beat me up?".
"Very well, I'll be here anytime." Cao Tianci sneered, "But I just can't see you crying like this. I saw my mother die in front of me with my own eyes, and I didn't shed a single tear. Kill those Donghu people and use their blood to replace my tears, can you do it?".
"Of course I can do it, I will definitely do it better than you!" Ye Feng said angrily.
Cao Tianci laughed, took a step forward, and stretched out his hand to Ye Feng, "Okay, you're like a man now, I'll wait to see how you behave." Ye Feng stared at him for a long time, and finally stretched out his hand to hold him together .
Gao Yuan nodded, touched Ye Feng's head, turned his head and walked towards Ye Zhong. (to be continued...)
