Three Kingdoms

  Chapter 595 A little calculation in the dark night

In the dark night, Ma Yan, Xu Huang, and Huang Cheng stayed in a tent in a mountain depression. With the double cover of the tent and the terrain of the mountain depression, it would not be easy if they were not close, or looked in from the entrance of the depression. Notice the glow of the little bonfires lit inside the tents to keep out the cold.

"Shuye, your people should be almost ready now..." Ma Yan looked at the timekeeping water leaker that was dripping, estimated the current time, and picked it up with a twig. Picking a bonfire, he said.

   "It should be almost there." Huang Cheng also glanced at Shui Leak, estimated the time and said, and then added, "...if the Xianbei people don't find out..."

  Xu Huang is still habitually expressionless, without saying a word, but from time to time, he lightly taps the handle of the ring knife at his waist with his fingers to reveal that his heart is not as calm as water.

  Ma Yan nodded after hearing what Huang Cheng said.

  The matter of military strategists is the same.

  There is no such thing as being foolproof and 100% sure that it can be implemented. Everything has certain uncertainties and certain risks.

All the strategies are actually similar. If they are not discovered by the opponent, they can be blown up like a landmine, killing the opponent on the spot, but if they are discovered, they will probably be ineffective. Just when I got out of bed, I was stepped on by myself...

   Take the matter of Ma Yan, Xu Huang, and Huang Cheng mobilizing Xianbei before, what if the head of Xianbei's head twitched for a while, and he led the troops regardless of his desperation to chase the exhausted Ma Yan's troops? Then, if unfortunately caught up, the Mayan army, which has lost the strength of its horses, will undoubtedly be defeated under the double disadvantages of Xianbei's number of people and the new force.

  But in Xu Shu's plan, the real brilliance is not the actions of these Xianbei people, but in these strategies and strategies, they did not suppress all their belongings at once.

Ma Yan's army has 1,000 cavalry, and Xu Huang and Huang Cheng have 1,000 cavalry and 800 infantry. No matter which branch is unfortunately hit by failure, it is still capable of fighting as a whole. , so as not to completely collapse.

  Why is the risky strategy of the army so special? Because those who are successful are so rare. Most of the people who put all their strength in one strategy end up turning into loess.

Simply put, Xu Shu's strategy is to use various means to try his best to take advantage, fatigue consumes Xianbei's strength, destroys and injures Xianbei people if he has the opportunity, and increases the loss of Xianbei people, but if there is no chance, or it fails, it is not a big problem Anyway, in the end, if the Xianbei people's real goal is Beiqu, and the lone army goes deep, then it will be the same as the Han people who went deep into Mobei alone, and failure is in sight.

  The water leak in the large tent finally drained the last water, and the ruler on the top of the pot also dropped to the bottom.

Huang Cheng, who had been paying attention to the water leak, stood up, fastened the silk sash on his body a little more, then cupped his fists at Ma Yan and Xu Huang, and said, "It's almost time, so let's go first ..."

  Ma Yan and Xu Huang also stood up, and said at the same time: "I wish Shuye all the best, and a certain team will arrive soon!"

  ×××××××××××××

  In the dark night, in Pingding County, the voices of women crying could be heard from time to time, which contrasted with the deathly quietness and eerieness of the night.

  Almost all the doors on both sides of the street, whether they are shops or houses, are open, and some doors are completely damaged, lying sideways on the street side of the door.

  These houses with their doors open are, without exception, a mess all over the place. The fragments of earthen pots and torn clothes seem to tell how urgent it is for cultural integration when ethnic minorities go south.

  These houses with the doors open, without exception, are without moving figures, and there are a few human-shaped objects, but they are all lying motionless on the ground, obviously dead already.

  In the night, those open dark doorways are like the entrances of tombs.

Of course, there are still some rooms with intact doors, and the doors are tightly closed, but without exception, there are some Xianbei people standing outside the doors, and there are faint crying voices in the house. sound…

  The people in these houses are naturally the people who the Xianbei people are going to take back for ethnic integration. Although the gate guards are all Xianbei people, they belong to different tribes. Those who have contributed to the integration of the nation are detained separately. On the one hand, it is for the convenience of statistics, and on the other hand, it is natural to give priority to ensuring the interests of their own tribes. .

  When two different civilizations collide with each other, there will always be some sparks of love. Of course, the insignificant losses caused by the collision can naturally be omitted under pen and ink.

Just like the Han people often beat and scolded the Hu people who entered the vassal, and even directly killed them, they also used their lower body to think and explore when they treated the Hu women. It is also common on people's heads.

   Anyway, it’s a two-way fusion, isn’t it?

  Although Pingding County was captured, many Xianbei people are still used to sleeping in grassland tents, and instead of entering the city, they camped outside the city.

Another reason is that the Xianbei people brought their own horses when they went south this time. Many horses are used to staying together in groups. At that time, the Xianbei people also directly surrounded a piece of land on the crop field in the city, and put up a simple wooden fence. On the one hand, they could let the horses find some food at will, and on the other hand, they also saved some work.

In the camp of the Xianbei people, there are various items looted from Pingding County, piled up like a mountain, and vehicles of all sizes are full of things. About one-third of these items will be handed over to the big households. Go up to the next level, and then the tribes of the big households will take another quarter of the remaining supplies, and then the final remaining will be distributed according to the number of heads of each tribe, and also taking into account the military exploits.

  Among these vehicles hoarding materials, there is a row of more than a dozen fully loaded baggage vehicles. These are the vehicles that were snatched from the abandoned dock before.

As the night deepened, there were some subtle sounds of wooden pegs rubbing against each other from the bottom of these carriages, and then a figure suddenly appeared at the bottom of the carriages, and then a little head poked out from behind the wheels, moving left and right nimbly. watching...

   Sima Yi burst into tears, beat his chest and stamped his feet: "It really is destiny!"

   Sima Shi and Sima Zhao stood in front of the bed and comforted their father: "Father, please don't do this..."

   Sima Yi continued beating his chest and stamping his feet: "My beautiful youth in the first half of my life was wasted on the bed because of that old thief..."

   Sima Shi and Sima Zhao looked at each other, and continued to comfort him: "This...is dead, so forget it, Father..."

   Sima Yi was still heartbroken: "The rest of my life was wasted on the bed because of...that guy..."

   Sima Shi and Sima Zhao looked at each other, their faces full of excitement...
