"What are your orders, my lord?"
Chen Qun immediately stepped forward and asked.
Liu Cheng pointed to the stone carvings on the rock with a riding whip and said: "Since Dou Xian, Geng Bing and others led the army to defeat the Northern Huns, the Northern Huns were forced to move westward.
From then on, there were no more Xiongnu in Mobei.
According to this, there were only one hundred In the past few years, if I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes, would anyone know what was engraved on it?
People who want to know the content of Yan Ran's Le Gong will have to come to Yanran Mountain.
What if this stone carving is corroded by weathering after thousands of years?
Those historians are also very lazy, and they just say "Yan Ran's Le Gong" in one sentence.
It's really Damn it, take a rubbing of this stone carving and take it back to keep it safe for future generations."
"Yes," Chen Qun agreed, and immediately ordered people to build a high platform under the rock to facilitate the rubbing.
When everyone returned to the camp, Liu Cheng convened everyone to discuss matters.
"Since Tuoba Jiefen escaped with about 15,000 people, where do you think they will escape?"
Liu Cheng asked while eating.
Yan Xing stood up and clasped his fists and said: "Brother, it seems that the direction Tuoba Jiefen led his people to escape should be in the direction of Zhao Xincheng, and there are only many Xianbei tribes living around Zhao Xincheng in this area.
They can get supplies there, and even supplement them." troops" Li Ru also stood up and raised his hands and said: "That's true, my lord, Tuoba Jiefen's original purpose should be to escape into the Yanran Mountains to escape our army's pursuit, and then go to Zhao Xincheng to obtain supplies and soldiers, but our army ambushed here in advance.
An ambush hit him and disrupted his plan, so he They could only flee directly to Zhao Xincheng, but their subordinates believed that they had been running away non-stop for days and had little time to rest and eat.
Even if they could hold on, their horses could not, and their escape speed would definitely not be fast.
They thought We must break out of camp and pursue them as soon as possible without giving them a chance to breathe."
Chen Qun stood up and said: "What Mr.
Li said is not unreasonable, but my subordinates think that our army should not pursue too fast.
Because our army is not familiar with the terrain of Mobei, once the enemy leads us by the nose, we will definitely be exhausted to fight against Xianbei."
People are not things that happen in a day or two.
It is impossible to deal with the Xianbei people in a day or two.
In the past few days, we have been chasing Tuoba Jiefen.
Not many Xianbei tribes can be seen anymore.
It can be seen that the Xianbei tribes living in various places have gradually received the news and migrated to the north.
If Tuoba Jiefen cannot obtain supplies, our army may not be able to obtain supplies.
We have many troops.
Once supplies cannot be obtained, there will inevitably be no pursuit, so my subordinates believe that they must anticipate the enemy's opportunity in order to deal with Tuoba Jiefen."
Liu Cheng chewed the mutton, looked at Guo Jia and asked, "Fengxiao, what do you think?"
Guo Jia thought for a while and said, "My lord, what Mr.
Li and Mr.
Chen said are reasonable.
We can neither allow Tuoba Jiefen to have a chance to breathe, nor should we be led by him.
We must not let him lead us away."
He can escape wherever he wants.
Wherever he escapes must be in accordance with our intentions, which means that we must lead him by the nose, and we cannot let him lead us by the nose."
Liu Cheng was very interested in Guo Jia's idea, but some people didn't understand.
Wang Shuang asked: "Mr.
Guo, you are a bit wishful thinking.
His legs are on someone else's body.
How can he escape and listen to us?"
stupid" Guo Jia smiled and said to Liu Cheng: "My lord, judging from the current situation, it is impossible for Tuoba Jiefen to lead his army to escape back to Monan.
Tuoba Xianbei has brought out almost all of Tuoba Xianbei's active forces and left them behind."
The people in Monan are all old, weak, women, children, and the sick and disabled.

After escaping back to Monan, those old, weak, women, children, and the sick will only become a drag on him.
He also knows that we men value benevolence and righteousness.
He will definitely not do anything to the old, weak, sick and disabled, so he will flee everywhere with peace of mind.
So where will he flee now?
He has no choice but to continue fleeing north, because he has no food and no soldiers.
These can only be obtained by continuing to flee north, so we can estimate his approximate escape route.
In this case, why don't we help him."
Liu Cheng took a sip of wine, raised his hand and said, "Tell me your specific thoughts."
"Since he is going to flee north, we can wait for him somewhere in the north in advance.
How to make him get into our pocket according to our idea?
This requires hard work.
First, we must force him not to If he doesn't take any road, he will be attacked if he takes other roads.
He is now fleeing to Zhao Xincheng , we can send two elite small groups of cavalry to quickly detour to the south and east of Zhao Xincheng, making a huge momentum to make him feel that there are large groups of our army's cavalry to the south and east, and we have a pursuer chasing after him.
He, at that time, he will have to run north, and I will set his next stop for escape in Dragon City."
Liu Cheng immediately shouted: "Come here, bring me the Kan map!"
Two soldiers carried a long map and hung it up.
Guo Jia walked to the map and found the location of Zhao Xincheng: "Our current location is at the southern foot of the central part of Yanran Mountain.
Zhao Xincheng is really at the southern foot of the eastern part of Yanran Mountain."
At the foot of Yan Mountain, two elite thousand riders circled around at the fastest speed.
Don't deploy to the south and east of Zhao Xincheng, with 10,000 horses following in hot pursuit.
The remaining people climbed over Yanran Mountain and headed north along the west bank of the Anhou River to set up an ambush in Longcheng.
Tuoba Jiefen led the remaining troops.
The defeated general might get some supplies and soldiers after escaping to Zhao Xincheng, but he found that we were following closely.
When he was chasing after him, he discovered that there were our troops to the east and south.
If he did not want to be surrounded, he could only withdraw from Zhao Xin City and flee along the east bank of the Anhou River to Longcheng, the former Xiongnu Chan Yuting.
Waiting for him to arrive at Longcheng, Our army has been waiting there for a long time, waiting for work.
If he is lucky enough to escape, he can only We will continue to flee.
At that time, we will deploy a pursuit strategy.
In addition, the Lord will have to send people to the Xiongnu River to order Chen Dao to lead the army to drive the captured cattle, sheep and horses north to meet us at Zhao Xin City.
If we have been unable to obtain supplies, Chen Dao will lead the army.
The troops coming with their cattle, sheep and horses are our life-saving straw.”
Liu Cheng walked to the map and studied Guo Jia's strategy for a while, then turned around and ordered: "Immediately send someone to order Chen Dao's army to drive cattle, sheep and horses on his back to meet us in Zhao Xincheng."
Chen Qun cupped his hands and agreed: "Yes, Lord" Liu Cheng asked again: "Where are Wang Shuang and Ma Chao?"
The two stood up and clasped their fists and said: "The end will be here."
"I order you two to each take a thousand riders, one person and three horses, and rush to the south and east of Zhao Xin City respectively, creating a huge momentum and oppressing Zhao Xin City.
Remember, you must not let the Tuoba Xianbei people discover you.
Reality or fiction, once they find out that you only have a thousand cavalry, this strategy will fail."
Ma Chao and Wang Shuang clasped their fists and agreed: "I obey."
Liu Cheng then said to Yan Xing and Li Ru: "Yan Xing, Li Ru, you two will take 10,000 horses and set off quickly tomorrow morning through Yanran Mountain to the former Xiongnu Shanyu Tinglong City, and prepare an ambush."
Yan Xing and Li Ru stood up, clasped their fists, and agreed: "I obey."
"The remaining troops will be led by me personally to pursue Tuoba Jiefen from behind."
Early the next morning, people from all walks of life were on the road, heading to their predetermined locations.
Liu Cheng led 15,000 men and horses to pursue Zhao Xincheng at the fastest speed.
The Han army soldiers who had rested for a long time and a night were full of energy after eating and drinking, and their marching speed reached the fastest speed.
That afternoon, there was still an hour before dark, and the scouting horse from the front suddenly returned and reported: "Your lord, we have caught up with the Tuoba Xianbei people thirty miles ahead."

Both Liu Cheng and Guo Jia looked stunned.
Guo Jia smiled and said: "My lord, this is a great thing.
It seems that the Tuoba Xianbei people are indeed extremely sleepy.
They have neither food replenishment nor enough time to rest.
Their marching speed has dropped greatly, and they only walked this far in one day and one night.
It was such a short journey that we caught up in one day.
It’s no wonder that the road was full of exhausted and starved people and horses.
If our army had persisted yesterday and gritted its teeth and pursued another journey, we would have certainly caught up.
However, Now it’s suspected of being an afterthought, I don’t know what my lord is going to do next.”
Liu Cheng said with a smile: "Now that we have caught up, of course we have to fight.
We have to fight until they have no courage to turn around and fight back.
When they see our army, they will be so scared that they keep running away.
The order is passed, and the army will advance at full speed to catch up with Tuo."
The tail of the Xianbei people" "Yes, General" "My lord has an order, the whole army will advance at full speed" The pursuers from behind were catching up.
Of course Tuoba Jiefen noticed it immediately.
When he learned that the pursuers were approaching at the fastest speed, he knew that there was no way to get rid of the pursuers.
Someone must be there.
Stay and fend off the pursuers, otherwise no one will be able to escape.
Tuoba Jiefen summoned his young commanders and said with a serious face: "The Han army is catching up.
I didn't expect that this time the Han army would suddenly attack us Xianbei people.
They are in chaos internally but they still have the ideas to deal with it."
We, this is What I didn't expect was that I rashly sent troops to attack the three major Xianbei tribes in the west.
It was my mistake in predicting the situation.
Now I, Tuoba Xianbei, have suffered heavy losses.
There are only less than 13,000 people left out of 100,000.
I am so ashamed of myself.
The ancestors of the Xianbei people” Commander Kruhuai said: "Commander, what are you talking about at this time?
Attacking the three major tribes of Xianbei in the west is not your own will.
It is what we all agree on.
It is all our mistakes.
Now we should think about how to get rid of the current crisis. , Seeing that the Han army is about to catch up, we can’t delay it any longer.”
Other marshals also said: "Yes, marshal, what should we do now?"
Tuoba Jiefen turned his head and looked at the listless Xianbei warriors behind him.
He sighed: "Given the current situation of the Erlangs, we don't have the strength to fight at all.
If we fight the Han army here, the result will be the only one.
The whole army has been wiped out.
Now the only way is to have someone stay to stop the Han army and allow others to escape the pursuit smoothly."
The young commanders all fell silent.
Everyone knew what the outcome would be if they stayed to block the Han army.
It would definitely be a life-or-death situation.
Who can not be afraid of death and who is willing to give up his life easily:
