"Lord, the Mongolian army has withdrawn!" Early in the morning, Li Xiang was disturbed by this sudden news, which disturbed his sweet dreams all night.
Although he was in a bad mood, facing such an important matter, Li Xiang still put on his clothes obediently and summoned everyone to the big tent.
"Everyone, I've heard everything!" After entering the big tent, Li Xiang said immediately when he saw that everyone was already here.
"Lord, I wonder if this news is true?" Wang Meng asked immediately.
"Of course it's true!" Li Xiang said calmly.
"My lord, after the southern Xiongnu are eliminated and occupy the Hetao area, I am afraid that Temujin will become a more difficult enemy than Wanyan Aguda!" Wang Meng said seriously.
Having just experienced a major defeat, normal people would be somewhat angry and unwilling, but Temujin could clearly realize that with his current strength, he could no longer defeat the combined forces of the Southern Huns and the Bingzhou Army, and made a decisive choice. Withdrawing troops, it can be seen that Temujin has remained awake and has not let any external objects affect his judgment at all.
Coupled with what Wang Meng learned about Temujin's family history, Wang Meng clearly felt at this moment that Temujin might cause more trouble than Wanyan Aguda in the future. In Wang Meng's view, Temujin Much better than Wanyan Aguda.
Moreover, if their plan goes well, it will not be Wanyan Aguda who will lead the Bingzhou Army in the future, but Temujin. This Temujin should be a major enemy of the Bingzhou Army!
Regarding what Wang Meng said, Li Xiang nodded noncommittally. Regarding Temujin's abilities, Li Xiang knew better than anyone else that Wanyan Aguda could not compare to Temujin, and his reputation as a genius was not just talk.
Fortunately, compared to the Central Plains, there are also many outstanding people on the grassland. In the future, there will even be more outstanding people on the grassland. With these people, Temujin's attempt to unify the grassland will not be as difficult as that of Li Xiang. How easy is the difficulty of Central Plains?
Otherwise, if Temujin really unifies the grasslands and the Central Plains is still falling apart, then Li Xiang will really have trouble sleeping and eating.
However, even though Wang Meng and Li Xiang already valued Temujin very much, they actually underestimated Temujin. Neither of them expected that after a big defeat, although Temujin They gave up continuing to attack the southern Xiongnu, but instead chose to sneak attack the seemingly more powerful central Xianbei.
"Okay, now that the Mongolian army has withdrawn, let's discuss how to deal with the Southern Huns first!" Li Xiang said while suppressing the excitement in his heart.
With the withdrawal of the Mongolian army, the major enemies of both the Bingzhou Army and the Southern Xiongnu were gone. This also meant that the Bingzhou Army was almost ready to start to fall out with the Southern Xiongnu who was fighting Wanyan Agu. Since then, Li Xiang's real purpose of sending troops this time, the plan to capture the Hetao land, has been put on the agenda.
Moreover, this was indeed a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. After several battles, the Southern Huns lost more than half of their 100,000-strong army, leaving only the last 40,000 troops. In addition, Wanyan Jinpinzi, one of the top generals of the Southern Huns, has not fully recovered from his injury, and even if he takes action forcefully, he will not be able to exert his full combat power.
In addition, the Bingzhou Army still had Meng Tian leading tens of thousands of troops ready to attack, waiting for the opportunity for Li Xiang to launch an attack at any time. Once Li Xiang sends the signal to attack, the already extremely empty southern Xiongnu rear will be absolutely unable to resist the conquest of Meng Tian's army.
Although Wanyan Aguda learned the lesson of his defeat at the hands of Mu Huali this time, he left Wanyan Gao and Wanyan Zongqian to guard the rear. But a good woman can't make a meal without rice. No matter how capable these two people are, it will be useless if they don't have enough soldiers to command them.
What's more, the enemy they have to face is Meng Tian. In history, Meng Tian is famous for recovering the land of Hetao and driving the Huns from the north. After the establishment of the Qin Dynasty, it was also because of Meng Tian's existence that the Huns "did not dare to go south to herd horses", which shows their prestige.
Under such favorable conditions, if the Bingzhou Army is still unable to eat the fat meat of the Hetao Land, it will really be unforgivable!
"My lord, this time I and the state army came to support the Southern Xiongnu, but I was paid. I think it is better to go and get the remaining reward back first, how about it?" Wang Meng said lightly.
At any rate, Li Xiang had finally raised his intelligence to a high of 97 points. When Wang Meng opened his mouth, Li Xiang understood what Wang Meng meant after a moment of thinking.
Naturally, the reward Wang Meng asked for was not really just for the horses, cattle and sheep from the Southern Huns. After the Southern Xiongnu conquered the Hetao land, they would naturally have enough, and it would not be short of the last promise of the Southern Xiongnu.
The reason why he wanted to ask for the last remaining batch of so-called rewards from Wanyan Aguda was just for the sake of the hearts of the Annan Huns, so that the Southern Huns could relax their vigilance.
Who would have thought that Li Xiang had just sent people to collect a debt from Wanyan Aguda, and then Li Xiang ignored the loss of this debt and directly sent troops to attack the southern Xiongnu. In this case, the actions of the Bingzhou Army will inevitably be much smoother, and their losses will inevitably be reduced a lot.
"Okay, just do what Jinglue said. One thing doesn't require two masters, so why not let Jinglue go to the southern Xiongnu camp!" Li Xiang nodded in agreement.
As for asking Wang Meng to go to the southern Huns camp, Li Xiang was not worried about what would happen to Wang Meng. On the contrary, Li Xiang sent his top military advisor, which was more able to win Wanyan Aguda's trust, making Wanyan Aguda think that the purpose of the Bingzhou Army was just those war horses, cattle and sheep, thereby creating opportunities for subsequent actions.
Although Temujin has taken the initiative to withdraw his troops, the threat from the Mongols to the Southern Huns still exists. Wanyan Aguda still needs the help of the Bingzhou Army, otherwise the Southern Huns themselves will not be able to resist future attacks from the Mongols alone.
Therefore, there will be many places where Wanyan Aguda will seek help from the Bingzhou Army in the future. With Wanyan Aguda's magnanimity, he will not easily fall out over something he has promised to others long ago.
Under this situation, even if Wang Meng went to the southern Xiongnu camp, nothing would happen. Even Wanyan Aguda would care about Wang Meng's safety more than others.
Of course, if Wanyan Aguda knew that Li Xiang's real purpose was to capture the Hetao land and eliminate the Southern Huns, the situation would be completely different. A rabbit has to bite people when it's anxious, let alone a hero like Wanyan Aguda?
However, only a limited number of people in the Bingzhou Army knew about this news, let alone Wanyan Agu.
