Just imagine, a powerful cavalry pounced forward from the front. Even their men and horses were covered with layers of iron armor. It is estimated that the bows, arrows and steel knives that Xianbei people are best at using cannot be used. Take advantage of the speed advantage brought by not approving armor and escape quickly.
After all, the most opponents Kebi could see in the past were wearing tube sleeve armor, fish scale armor, chain mail, and iron armor with a basin collar is already too much.
To deal with these people, you can also use bows and arrows to shoot their war horses, affecting their offensive capabilities.
But Cao Tai said that Liu Beijun put iron armor on the horses in a frenzied manner. From a distance, the cavalry of the Han army looked like stone statues.
When meeting this kind of person, he really has no good tricks other than avoiding him.
That's the advantage of iron production...
If I occupy the Central Plains in the future, I must also improve the level of smelting, produce more armor, and accumulate capital for future hegemony.
But now the distant water cannot save the near fire.
Ke Bi Neng struggled for a while, and suddenly thought of a problem.
"I heard that Liu Chan's soldiers came out of Tongguan, and they are about to invade the East?"
"That's right," Cao Tai snorted, but then he felt more anticipation in his heart, "Could it be that Khan wants to fight Liu Chan?"
Ke Bi Neng let out a hey, and said boldly:
"Why, can't it?
I heard that the river network near Ye County is dense, which is not suitable for us and other cavalry to use it.
On the contrary, since Liu Bei's soldiers left Tongguan, no one in the Wei Dynasty dared to plunder him, and the emperor had to move his capital to avoid Liu Chan's soldiers.
Although a certain person is not talented, he is still willing to lead his army to the west to fight... with Liu Chan. "
Liu Chanjun had just pacified Guanzhong, and this time he forcibly marched eastward, so he was already very tired.
The famous general Cao Ren was stationed there. He fought Liu Chan, and I led Erlang to attack suddenly, which was enough to make Liu Chan's blood flow into rivers.
Hmm, not bad, why didn't I think of that before?
Tian Yu couldn't help sneering at Ke Bi Neng, who had just vowed to fight Liu Bei, suddenly changed his temper.
Cao Tai also felt that Ke Bineng was slapping himself in the face, but when he heard that Ke Bineng was willing to help his father fight, he must be very willing.
His address was a little more respectful, and he said in a low voice:
"Your Majesty, Liu Chan is so powerful, don't underestimate the enemy."
Ke Bineng laughed loudly, and said to Tian Yu:
"Of course I know the number, and I will ask General Tian to help me kill the enemy."
Tian Yu couldn't help sneering, thinking that Liu Adou was extremely strong with his troops, it was definitely not because Ke Bi Neng could defeat him, it would be great if Ke Bi Neng was willing to go.
He said sinisterly:
"Since Liu Adou dispatched troops, he has been invincible in all battles, and all the troops of our Great Wei have no power to resist him.
What, Khan is going to die? "
If it was Bu Dugen, he would have lost his mind at the moment, but Ke Bineng is not afraid,
He smiled sinisterly:
"Really, if Liu Adou wants to kill me, I will call General Tian to save me,
I must have known each other once, and General Tian would not just sit back and watch me die at the hands of Liu Adou. "
Cao Tai didn't bother to care about the bickering between the two.
Everyone in the government and the public was frightened by Liu Chan. I heard that now that Liu Chan is advancing eastward, no one dares to confront Liu Chan head-on.
Only Cao Ren took the initiative to take command of the army with his clan in mind.
However, Cao Ren also knew that this attack might be more ominous than good. He had left a suicide note for Cao Tai to cherish.
At this moment, someone is willing to support Cao Ren, no matter who it is, Cao Tai is very happy.
He immediately expressed that he would try his best to support Ke Bineng, and when he passed by Luoyang, he would find a way to help him raise a lot of weapons so that he could fight Liu Chan head-on.
Ke Bi Neng was full of ambition and laughed.
Seeing Cao Tai's humble expression, Ke Bineng immediately thought of something.
"By the way, General Cao, I heard rumors today that the emperor is going to move the capital?"
The corner of Cao Tai's mouth twitched quickly, and he said with a wry smile:
"To be honest, Liu Chan marched east, Liu Bei invaded north, and Luoyang was already under the attack.
Although the Son of Heaven was unwilling to leave Luoyang, he could not bear the persuasion of his courtiers, so he could only move to Yecheng after a while. "
"No, I didn't mean Yecheng," Ke Bineng said suspiciously, "I heard that the emperor wants to move his capital to the North Kingdom?"
"Clam?"
A trace of fear flashed across Cao Tai's face for an instant, and then he put on a dazed look and said with a wry smile:
"Khan is joking,
My sons and daughters under my command are all Chinese soldiers, how can I go to the North Kingdom?
I'm afraid that I will be scattered halfway because I miss my hometown.
Besides, the northern country is cold all year round, and it was where Su Wu was exiled. How could we go to such a place. "
The change of Cao Tai's expression just now did not hide from the old fox Ke Bineng and Tian Yu,
Now that the Xianbei army is heading south one after another, it would be a good opportunity for Cao Rui to lead his army northward suddenly.
But what can it do?
Xianbei originally lived by chasing water and grass,
Can the Han people still go to the grasslands to herd horses and sheep, and then become Xianbei people?
Just like what Cao Wei said, if Cao Rui really did this, the soldiers under him would definitely run out in a month at most, who would go on a crazy adventure with him?
He couldn't think of a reason, so he could only hum twice to show that everything was under control.
There are so many resourceful people in the Han people, and these conspiracies and calculations are really incomprehensible.
When I occupy the world in the future, I want all my clansmen to learn Chinese, and I have to let go of all the things at home.
Chapter 542 Don't Let Them Run
Liu Chan moved eastward, Ke Bineng moved westward, and Liu Bei continued to move northward. Cao Wei's last living space has been squeezed smaller and smaller.
However, some people think that it would be a good choice to retreat to Yanzhou, Qingzhou, and Xuzhou now.
The people of insight in Luoyang City have already begun to pack up the soft things, and they are going to either eat a pot of milk to meet Wang Shi, or go to Yecheng to hide for a while and wait for the changes to see what kind of attitude Liu Bei and his son will use to deal with these old masters. A person who worked hard for Cao Wei.
Huan Jie, the important minister who first jumped out to encourage Cao Pi to proclaim himself emperor, died of illness when Cao Pi was alive.
However, there are still many ministers who have presented the form of persuasion before being marked by Liu Bei and his son, especially Hua Xin, who is known for his noble character, once dragged Empress Fu by her hair to get her out of the wall. Weeping on foot" asked Liu Xie for help, but Liu Xie could only helplessly express that he didn't know how long he would live.
Hua Xin's crime has far surpassed disrespect, which also laid a solid foundation for him to become Cao Wei's important minister, but now that the big man has killed him at the door, Hua Xin himself does not believe that Liu Bei will die because of his noble character. When such a thing does not exist.
He is now in panic all day long, crying at home almost every day and dare not go to court, for fear that when he goes out, the big man has already broken into Luoyang city, arrests himself and his family and sends him to Empress Fu's tomb for disposal.
What to do, what to do,
Who would have thought that a mat-weaver and shoe-seller would soon win the world,
Who would have thought that the big man, who was clearly on the verge of dying back then, would have regained his strength?
I can only blame my own choice back then, and I don't know how the history books of later generations will evaluate me.
"Master, let's hurry up and prepare to go north!"
The old servant who had followed Hua Xin for many years tried hard to persuade Hua Xin not to wait any longer.
If you don't leave now, when the big man kills him, the wealth accumulated by Hua Xin's family over the years will definitely be wiped out and confiscated by the big man.
It's not that Hua Xin doesn't understand this truth,
Is it safe to just go to Jizhou?
Now the troops of Xianbei and Liaodong are entering the Central Plains in a large scale,
Their military discipline is lax, and Hua Xin is likely to die in the chaos.
And the most important point is that when Cao Rui said that he would stick to Luoyang, Hua Xin was the first to show his support.
At that time, he kept saying that he was not afraid of the threat of the Han army at all, and would definitely fight the big man to the end, never ending his death, to avenge his friend Wang Lang, and would never leave Luoyang for half a step.
Who would have thought that Cao Rui would give up Luoyang at a critical moment,
He could treat what he said as farting, but Hua Xin couldn't.
The most important thing for celebrities is integrity and reputation.
Hua Xin's previous announcement that he would stick to Luoyang has already attracted the envious and expectant eyes of many disciples and grandchildren.
Many of them made great contributions during the transition from Han to Wei, and they were all willing to follow famous people like Hua Xin to fight to the death with the returning big man.
If Hua Xin was intimidated, wouldn't his hard-earned reputation be wiped out immediately? For Hua Xin, it would be worse than death.
Because of this, Hua Xin couldn't run away.
He has been looking for some ways to get in touch with the big man these days, and even started to seek contact with Soochow through his concubine (his concubine is Luo Tong's mother), to see if he can use Luo Tong to get in touch with the big man. Reconcile the relationship, and linger on for a while.
But he also knew that it was impossible for him to make up for his huge crime just by relying on this indirect relationship.
In the past few days, he was so anxious that he was on fire, but on the surface he still had to pretend to be calm, for fear that others would see his flaws.
The days go by like this,
The fear in Hua Xin's heart also increased day by day.
It is said that the old friend Wang Lang was directly scolded to death, and his reputation was ruined, and he did not know what kind of insult he suffered during his lifetime.
I, Hua Xin, have a noble character, a big man can't treat me like this.
The dinner was tasteless, so Hua Xin went to bed early, but not long after falling asleep, he suddenly felt someone watching him.
Hua Xin opened his eyes in a daze, and sure enough, he saw a black figure parked not far in front of him. Just as he was about to exclaim, the man let out a hey, and grabbed Hua Xin's neck with his rough hands, saying in a hoarse voice. :
"wanna die?"
Hua Xin quickly shut up and blinked pitifully, wondering if she was seen in the dark.
The man snorted, took out a dagger and pressed it against Hua Xin's back, and said in a deep voice:
"Ask your servants to open the back door."
Hua Xin's heart was pounding, but he didn't know what to do now, so he could only follow the man's request, howling and summoning the servants, and asked them to open the back door. Stay far away, and don't let anything happen to you.
"Hero, the old man has little savings in his family, and he can give all of it to the hero.
The old concubine's room is the birth mother of Luo Tong, the great general of the Eastern Wu Dynasty. If a hero is a noble man, he will... have a big thank you. "
Hua Xin originally wanted to put on a dignified and calm attitude, but the man holding the knife against her had a heavy beard and strong hands, and it was most likely some reckless person. Hua Xin didn't dare to make a fuss with her posture.
The man just let out a hey, sneered and said:
"Don't be afraid, we are not interested in your family's money."
Hua Xin shivered suddenly, and said in a trembling voice:
"Hero, what is the word of the hero, old man, the money of the old man is voluntary, the hero spares his life."
Not wanting money means dying. Between money and life, Hua Xin is still able to make a choice.
The person behind him heyed, Hua Xin continued to talk, the door creaked and slowly opened, and an elegant figure flashed in, sitting upright in front of him.
"Ziyu, long time no see."
"Grandpa, who is the gentleman?" Hua Xin trembled.
"I am Xu Shu, Ziyu is really a nobleman who forgets things."
Xu Shu!
Hearing Xu Shu's name, Hua Xin's eyes first flashed with fear, but soon his heart was filled with ecstasy.
"So it's Yuan Zhi, it's Yuan Zhi, it's good that Yuan Zhi is here.
Before Yuan Zhi disappeared, my brother has been thinking of you! "
