Chapter 143: I'm Angry With You!
The first to see the Huns was the area of Yanmen in the clouds, and the horses of the Huns galloped not far away, neighing, and tirelessly galloping in the distance.
The infant stood on top of the wall, his eyes fixed on the enemy outside the wall, and there was no fear on his face.
"Light the beacon."
"They are looking for a favorable position, let Chai Wu and Lu Chen put away the banner, pretend to be short of manpower, and it is best to attract the enemy to attack them."
"Get Guo Meng ready"
The infant was not armoured, but only wore a helmet, held a large shield, hung a strong bow, and gave several orders.
Here in the Tang Kingdom, it was the soldiers of the Tang Kingdom who were led by Guan Ying to guard it.
Zhang Cang did not come, he was still staying in Taiyuan, although this person was timid, but his ability to govern the country was really good, and now the Tang State can transfer more than 50,000 elites at will, and it will not affect domestic production, and this national strength is only comparable to that of Qi State, Guan Ying carefully observed the Tang State and found that if they did not hesitate to recruit the national strength and go all out, they could recruit more than 300,000 troops.
And it's different from Qi State. Because the Tang State is surrounded by the enemy on three sides, the people here are fierce, often fighting, there are many fierce beasts in the mountains, that is, ordinary people, occasionally go up the mountain to hunt, under the same scale, the soldiers of the Qi State are definitely not able to beat the soldiers of the Tang State.
What's more, the middle and lower-level officers of the Tang State were all elites drawn from the Northern Army, that is, the personal soldiers of the Tang King.
The generals at the upper level are all the fierce generals of Peng Yue and Yingbu, and the quality of the army is extremely high, just in terms of the configuration of the generals, this is more than the configuration of the northern and southern armies. Of course, after Guan Ying commanded these people, he still inserted a few of the big men and fierce men in the heavenly group, just to make it easier for him to command.
At this moment, in the face of the Huns, these soldiers of the Tang State did not have the slightest fear, their eyes were full of expectation, Zhang Cang used the military system to the extreme during this period of time, and even ordered internally, those who can rob the Huns livestock, can be promoted to the knighthood if they take back the three heads, and if they can bring back the head of a Xiongnu, they can be promoted to two knights...
Zhang Cang really developed the Tang State as the Qin State, so that after these people saw the enemy, their eyes were always above their heads, and they couldn't take their eyes off it.
This set of methods can only be emulated by the Tang State, just because the Tang State has a large land and a large amount of land that can be given to meritorious soldiers, and other vassal states cannot do it.
What's the most outrageous? The most outrageous thing is that the Tang State actually has a standing cavalry... There were more than 600 knights and about 1,000 war horses.
Thinking of this, Guan Ying's heart can't calm down, and my big man only has more than 2,000 war horses! What do you Tang Guo want to do?!
And the terrible thing is that the people and soldiers of the Tang Kingdom do not recognize any princes and famous generals, they only recognize the Tang King. Even the orders given to the soldiers must be ordered in the name of the Tang King, otherwise, those fierce generals who have followed Peng Yue Yingbu will not bird him at all, and their noses will be raised high, as if to say: Naigong also did Xiang Yu back then, what is the great thing about you?
They were imprisoned by the Han Dynasty, but they were pardoned by the Tang King and brought back to the Tang Kingdom, so they only recognized the Tang King as their master.
When the soldiers at the bottom mentioned the king of Tang, they admired it even more, and showed off to the baby with a smile, saying that the king of Tang had borrowed three sheep and a cow from him, and the lambs and calves born were all his.
It is really impossible to connect the little Huizi in Chang'an City with the benevolent and righteous Mingjun.
However, what is the matter of the Tang State, it is not about the baby, he is a relatively pure general, and he will not worry about whether the Tang King will rebel like other generals, if the Tang King rebels, the Son of Heaven orders himself to crusade, then he will go to war, if no one gives the order, the Tang King is the self-proclaimed emperor and what is with him?
The Huns began to probe, the Hun cavalry rushed towards the city wall at high speed, after approaching, they pulled the bow and shot arrows, the rain of arrows suddenly enveloped the Great Wall, after shooting a round of arrows, they immediately retreated, the second team began to gallop and come, and pulled the bow and shot arrows again, they were extremely fast, and the bow and arrow were only in an instant, so that the Han army had no way to counterattack.
Under the protection of the big shield and the city wall, the archers of the Han began to counterattack, and the strong crossbows and strong bows were pulled apart in an orderly manner, and occasionally they could also shoot a few Hun knights, but the probability was not high.
At this time, Mao Dun had already appeared on the edge of the Great Wall of Yan Kingdom.
Maudun's steed is very tall, black, extremely ferocious, other steeds dare not approach, riding such a tall horse, Maudun can lower his head to look at the generals around him, showing his high status.
"The plough is lonely... A little off... There is not a single flag on the Great Wall, it is empty..."
A general looked at the Great Wall in the distance and asked, "On weekdays, they will garrison a large number of troops, how can it be empty at this moment?" ”
"Hahaha, they must have summoned all the troops to the Tang Kingdom, and the Yan Kingdom has become an empty country!" , another general said loudly.
"No... They're ambushing here, they're deliberately luring us."
Mao Dun squinted his eyes and grinned, "Five-chariot guard, come, you ride my steed and carry my flag... Attack the Great Wall and attack the Yan Kingdom! ”
"Good!"
For Maudun's order, even if you are asked to send him to death, no one will refuse, this is Maudun's consistent style, no matter what he says, no one is allowed to hesitate, you must agree immediately, otherwise, he will make you worse than dead. He even shot his own father to death, even the generals who were close to him on weekdays were extremely afraid of him in their hearts, and they didn't dare to hesitate no matter what Mao Dun said.
One of the generals mounted Maudun's horse, took his banner, and shouted, and then began to charge with the cavalry.
The Hun cavalry roared, bows in hand, and galloped towards the city walls.
"Brush One"
Almost at the moment when they were about to reach the city walls, numerous flags were violently raised.
"Qi."
"Zhao."
"Beam."
"Chu."
"Swallow."
In the middle position, a big man's banner fluttered in the wind, and Xiahou Ying waved his hand violently, "Kill!! ”
"Whoosh, whoosh, hey one"
For a time, the arrows and meal arrows flew out, shrouded in those Hun cavalry who charged at the forefront, but at that moment, the horses neighed, and the cavalry howled miserably and led the five chariots of the army hurriedly ordered, taking turns to attack, and the cavalry began to use their best cavalry tactics again, shooting back and forth, only the first salvo gave the Huns a huge wound, after that, the cavalry relied on the favorable speed advantage, and continued to ride and shoot.
The Hun cavalry seemed to be not afraid of death at all, calm and composed, and withdrew after a round of shooting, even if there were arrows hanging on their bodies, they gritted their teeth and did not say a word.
The Huns fight, they don't give you the opportunity to fight in close combat at all, they have always relied on the advantage of cavalry to fight with you, if you stay still, you will ride and harass you, if you pursue, then fly kites, unlike other nomadic tribes, the Huns are not fighting on their own, they have a lot of different tactics, they can cooperate with each other, the Huns are wolves, and Maudun is their king.
Therefore, if you want to defeat the Xiongnu, the most important thing is to have horses.
You can't even catch up with the enemy, you can only be beaten passively, what else can you say to defeat?
The attack here in Yan is obviously a notch stronger than that in Tang State, and the strength is stronger in the frequency of cavalry and archery exchange, and the frequency of rotation in Tang is far less than here, the knights here are constantly galloping, and the speed of rotation is also very fast, and the soldiers of the Han Dynasty are basically shrouded in arrows, and they counterattack with arrows.
Of course, the soldiers of the Han Dynasty were not without advantages, their arrows had a longer range and greater damage, because the Xiongnu mainly relied on mounted archery as a means of fighting, and the consumption of arrows was extremely large, so they would use everything they could think of to make arrows, including primitive arrows such as bone arrows.
The Han bow was large, half a man tall and heavy, while the Hun bow was short and shot faster, but the damage was not so strong.
Both sides paid a lot of costs, and the five chariot guards continued to command, occasionally going in person, drawing bows and arrows, and cheering up the soldiers on their side.
While he was fighting hard here, Maudun went north with the rest of his army, and he sent someone to inform the five chariot guards, and after another half an hour of fighting, he would retire and rest and wait for him outside the county.
Liu Chang scratched his ears and looked at the "sand table" in front of him.
It's a rudimentary model, with only a few pieces of wood to serve as the Great Wall and a few stones to act as an army.
"Master, I can only defend... There's no way to fight back. ”
Liu Chang looked at the messy situation in front of him and begged: "Why don't I become a Hun?" ”
Han Xin glanced at him, "Okay...", the two got up and changed positions.
Liu Chang grinned, "Hahaha, okay, master, I will directly concentrate the forces of Tang Yan and attack your Yan Land!" He put several stones representing the Xiongnu in the position of Yan Guo, and shouted with a smile: "You->>."
[Reading updates load slowly, there are ads, chapters are incomplete, please exit Reading and read!] 】
The armies of Tang and Daidi marched slowly and couldn't catch up, I directly broke your Yan Kingdom, okay, the armies of all countries were defeated, the other princes and kings ran away, King Zhao died, I won! ”
Han Xin looked at him with disdain, and he slowly moved the stone of Daijun to the position of Yan Kingdom.
"Okay, even if you use half a day to break the Great Wall of Yan Kingdom and kill King Zhao, then you still need half a day to loot Yan Kingdom, and you will also encounter a counterattack from the city..."
"At this time, my army has been able to reach the vicinity of the Yan Great Wall in a hurry, and at this time, it is already the most exhausting time for both of us... However, your horse, which has been rushing from Tang, has been galloping, and has been running and still running?! ”
"Can't run? Can you fight with me?! ”
Han Xin's voice raised suddenly, and Liu Chang looked at the situation in a daze.
"Come again!"
"Okay."
"Shall I be a big man?"
Han Xin raised his head disdainfully and no longer paid attention to this laizi.
Liu Chang looked at the situation in front of him and understood a little, "That's why the master arranged the army in Daidi?" Is it to encircle and annihilate the Xiongnu in the Yan Kingdom? ”
"When are you going to make some progress? Even your little doll can see the fate of the storm on Yan Kingdom, isn't Maudun as good as you? ”
"Then he'll attack Dai!! He always thought that the Northern Army was in Tang and the Coalition Army was in Yan! Attacking the Tang Kingdom, the Yan Kingdom will also come to flank the attack, and if the Yan State is attacked, the Tang State will come to flank the attack... Therefore, he will pick one of the weakest places, and let Tang Yandu fall into a bitter battle in advance, so that they are tired and unable to support!! Then you can avoid the main force of the Han army and attack directly from the rear! Cooperate with the two feints to annihilate the army of the Han in one fell swoop! ”
"This Mao Dun is really greedy!"
"However, our northern army has always been acting on behalf of the land! Just lure him in... Then take advantage of the terrain of the Daidi... There are many mountains and rivers in the area, and it is the most suitable for ambushing the Huns!! ”
Liu Chang jumped up violently and shouted, "Master!! What do you think of my plan?! ”
"We can destroy the enemy and the generation!"
"I'm a genius! If only I were to command this battle! The Huns will surely perish! ”
Looking at the arrogant appearance of this little cub, Han Xin's face twitched, he darkened his face, and asked, "Then why do you think I arranged the Northern Army in Daidi in advance?" ”
"It turns out that the master is the same as I thought! It's really the same thing that heroes see! ”
"Get out!"
"Master... What if Mao Dun insisted on attacking the Tang Kingdom? ”
"There are more mountains and rivers in the Tang Kingdom than in the generations... With a large cavalry to the Tang State. Maudon hasn't gone crazy yet. ”
Liu Chang looked at Han Xin's eyes with even more admiration, and stars flashed in his eyes, "Master. I finally know why people like Fan Xu are so afraid of you..."
"Heh, such a strategy can only be used once... It has to be when Mao Dun is extremely angry and anxious to destroy the Han army before he can use it... The results of this battle will not be too big, even if you surprise the horse with your new thing, it will not help the Hun army... Do you know why Maudon was willing to use a large number of men and horses to storm this time? ”
"I don't know."
"If I'm not mistaken, what he brought this time is the elite of other tribes... He wants to integrate the steppe and use the men and horses of other tribes to attack the Great Han, weaken the Great Han, and also weaken the other tribes... The Xiongnu rose rapidly, and out of the million people under his command, the Xiongnu were less than 200,000. ”
"He has been out fighting for many years, and he seems to have special trust in other tribes, but in fact, after weakening their strength in disguise, the Huns will be able to completely control all the tribes."
"Isn't he afraid that his prestige will be ruined after defeat? Not afraid of the rebellion of those tribes? ”
He placed the Huns in various tribes as nobles. Hollowed out the original aristocracy... Do you think this is somewhat similar to the original Qin State mobilizing the people of the other six countries to build the Chi Road and the Great Wall? ”
"Will Win Zheng be afraid of causing a rebellion?"
"He wished that these people would rebel, so that he could kill another group of old nobles."
In the end, Han Xin said very seriously: "Never underestimate your enemy..."
When Liu Chang returned to the palace, he was even in a trance.
"What's wrong... How do you look absent-minded?
Gai Gong put down the book and looked at Liu Chang in front of him.
"Master... I suddenly felt like I... Some are too young and have a lot to learn. ”
"Oh?"
"It's good to be aware of my shortcomings... This shows that you have grown. ”
"It's still very necessary to save my body."
"Master, this is also Confucianism copying our Huang Lao?"
"Of course! That Zeng Zi can also be regarded as the grandson of Lao Tzu, which is naturally our Huang Lao's thoughts. ”
Liu Chang is also used to it, anyway, everything here in Gai Gong is Huang Lao's, a few days ago he wanted to ask for leave to learn more from Han Xin, Gai Gong also reprimanded him, saying that the soldier's thinking is actually Huang Lao's Liu Chang didn't read much, and he didn't know how he talked about it, anyway, in the end, he still rounded his own set of rhetoric, but Han Xin didn't seem to agree with it.
"It's good that it's finally no longer the same thing it used to be."
"Heh, master, I just said that I am still young, and when I am older, what about the likes of Maodun? I will take them alive! ”
"I am the personal inheritance of the Marquis of Huaiyin, and Xunzi will pass it on again, not to mention, I am still a disciple of the master! The legend of Huang Lao! Huang Lao, who has been studying with you for so long, when I am strong, who can beat me?! ”
For a while, Gai Gong didn't know how to reprimand him.
"Bang"
When the thunder was heard everywhere, the Huns' horses were frightened, raised their front hooves, and neighed loudly.
For the first time, there was consternation on Mao Dun's face.
When he encountered Zhou Bo's ambush, he was not surprised, but ordered to retreat, but on the way back, the Han army seemed to ignite something, so that their war horses were frightened, under the terrain of Xiazhai, the elite of the northern army angrily slashed and killed the Huns in front of them, flesh and blood flying, war horses hit each other, Mao Dun really did not expect that the enemy actually arranged an ambush here.
However, where did the Han army come from so many troops?
Mao Dun had snooped on the Han army before the war, and it is said that only the Northern Army and the armies of Tang, Yan, Zhao, Chu, and Liang participated in the war. The northern army is in Tang, and the coalition of the rest of the princes is in the Yan country, and Mao suddenly remembered that in the coalition army of the princes of the Yan country, it seems that he did not see the banner of the Tang country... Could it be that the large army guarding the Tang State is the army of the Tang State?? How long has they been in power, how can they have so many and such elite troops?!?
For the first time, Maudun discovered the speed of the rise of the Tang Kingdom, which made him even more angry than he found out that he had been ambushed.
If this development continues, then the future war will not be between the Xiongnu and the Han, but between the Xiongnu and the Tang State.
Maudun had always been arrogant, which he couldn't accept.
When Maudun attacked Daidi, he was ready, the front army opened the way, and he followed in the rear, and after encountering an ambush, he directly led the elite to leave, did not participate in the battle, and did not pay too heavy a price.
When Guan Ying watched the beacon fire in the distance being lit continuously, he understood that the substitute land had worked.
"Someone! Prepare for the horse!! ”
Guan Ying led the horse and looked at the Tang cavalry that had been prepared for a long time in front of him.
"The banner of the Huns is in front of us! This battle should be dedicated to the Son of Heaven!! ”
The knights were extremely excited, and they raised their arms and shouted: "Make the first contribution to the king!" ”
The infant was stunned for a moment, and then said loudly: "According to the order of King Tang!" The one who beheads the Huns will be promoted to a knight! Slay the Capture of the Flag, tear the earth and give the marquis! Kill!! ”
In an instant, the cavalry of the Tang Kingdom howled and rushed out towards the enemy, thousands of horses galloped, and the generals who commanded the charge in the distance were shot off the horses with one arrow, at that moment, the future old Shangshan Yu was completely stunned, where did they come from the cavalry?! How dare they charge?!
And when Mao Dun, who finally left Daidi, left the Great Wall, suddenly a knight came to tell in embarrassment, and a scout came, and the large-scale army of the Yue clan was storming the hinterland of the Xiongnu, burning and looting.
"Liu Chang!!!"
Maudun threw his head back and roared.
ps: I want to ask for a wave of monthly passes, but the monthly pass list has been exploded again, why is it so difficult to get into the top ten?
Last night, a stray dog from nowhere went into the backyard and bit three chickens to death... The few who are alive are also injured, ah, I feel sorry for me, there are really many stray dogs now,
No one cares!
