Chapter 425: An Hour and a Half Is Enough

Lu Xun once said that if you are not afraid that hooligans will know martial arts, you are afraid that hooligans will be educated.

Although this sentence does not sound so good, it is a very real sentence.

It is actually the right way to describe the current situation.

The Xiongnu is like the hooligan who knows martial arts, and the Dahan is the educated hooligan.

Martial artists kill people to see blood, and they can make you feel scared when you see them.

And cultural people kill people, they don't see blood, and they don't even know how to die if you die.

In terms of deterrent effect, of course, it is better to kill people without seeing blood, but in the long run, it is more appropriate to kill people without seeing blood.

Something, it's a lifetime thing, the kind of thing that makes you feel terrible from the bottom of your heart.

Not only the Han army, but also the previous Qin army, the Zhao army during the Warring States period, and so on.

When facing the nomads, all of them used strategy and tactics.

Therefore, in the minds of these people, the agrarian civilization in the south is a cunning and scheming opponent.

From this aspect, Chai Wu's inference is also reasonable.

As for Zhang Buyi......

"That's right, soldier, treacherous! Contact in advance, maybe they will run, but no matter how fast the logistics are, it can't compare to ours, when they release scouts to explore, they can't find the location of the army, and there are still large armies fighting on the front line, so they naturally won't retreat easily. ”

Zhang Buyi straightened his chest, although he still had some squares in his heart, but there was no way.

Who made himself the boss here?

Who made their own decisions that made Han Jun a big winner?

Do you want him to say it now?

That's absolutely impossible, don't even think about it, it's all here, even if you bite the bullet, you have to admit that all this is in your own expectations, otherwise, what about morale?

Do you want the face of this great general?

"Strategy and tactics, you have to use it flexibly, think more about the situation on the battlefield before deciding, in fact, there is nothing difficult, look at the opportunity, poke it out, and it's over!" Zhang Buyi continued to speak arrogantly, without any nervousness on his face.

On this day, the Han army continued to fight steadily.

However, compared with the previous days, today has advanced ten miles more.

It's just that in the last ten miles, people dismounted and walked on foot leading the war horses together.

With this ten-mile buffer, tomorrow's army will be able to meet directly with the Xiongnu's logistics troops.

As for the main force of the Huns, I'm sorry, Zhang Buyi hasn't received any news yet.

And the latest information is that the scouts have dispersed for more than 300 miles, and there is still no trace of the main force of the Huns.

On the contrary, I found a lot of scattered tribes of the Huns, and the number of cattle and sheep carried was not large, and the number was not large, and most of them were composed of men who were slightly older and about to become adults.

The scouts observed these people from afar, but did not approach, and the Huns did not seem to have a sense of prevention at all.

It's not that the Huns didn't have any defenses at all, but they put the scouts at the far end, and there weren't many scouts near the battlefield.

Basically, they were placed in the west, mainly to scout the Han army around the Great Wall, and did not expect the Han army to appear in their rear.

And war is like this, it is impossible for everyone to be careful in all aspects, let alone take care of all sides.

Even the Han army can't.

It's not so much about the battle on the battlefield as to who can perform more brightly.

It's more about a competition to see which of the two sides makes fewer mistakes on the battlefield.

There are no winners in wars, but some wars must be fought for the sake of the future.

……

Early the next morning.

The evenings on the prairie are still a little cool.

It was not good to sleep without clothes this night, there was no tent, with some coolness, and the body was wet, in such an environment, people are very easy to get sick.

"Wait, where did the water come from?" Seeing that many soldiers were drinking water and eating jerky, Zhang Buyi looked around, and his face couldn't help but be dark.

"The water in the river, living water, tastes sweet, and is delicious!" Someone pointed to a place not far away.

The large army was almost always marching along the river, which was a necessary factor in the encampment of the march.

"Holy shit!" Zhang Buyi's head exploded instantly, and he hurriedly shouted: "Don't drink it, go and notify everyone and pour out the water!" ”

"General, today is no longer suitable for making a fire, and there is still a way to go, so you can't let the soldiers go to the war with dry mouths, right?" Chai Wu also heard Zhang Buyi's shout, and hurriedly came out to dissuade him.

"You know!" Zhang Buyi scolded Chai Wu viciously.

It was already very close to the front line, and in fact the whole army had not been on fire since the last fire was lit yesterday morning.

The reserves of water bags are limited, and the water that was boiled yesterday was basically drunk last night.

People always feel thirsty when they wake up in the morning, but the Han army requires that they are not allowed to drink raw water, but now they can't make a fire, what should they do?

Can you still die of thirst by relying on the river?

Aren't you afraid of being laughed to death by those brothers who died in battle?

The more Zhang Buyi thought about it, the more angry he became, and strictly restrained all the way, but he didn't expect that something went wrong at the last moment.

Pointing to the west angrily, he said: "We are the Huns upstream, there are tens of millions of livestock and hundreds of thousands of people, they also drink the water in this river, people drink in the upstream of the livestock, we drink the water here, they have drunk, Du Teniang wants to die, don't you?" poured, all poured for Lao Tzu! ”

The people below may not be clear, but Zhang Buyi is very clear about these details.

It was mainly affected by Wang Buying.

In China, the army is encamped, and the water source must be given priority to river water, and the larger the water source, the better.

Secondly, the water must also be boiled for some time before it can be drunk.

It's still so strict in China, let alone in the grassland.

It is not that the king is not hungry and has not explained that the place where people drink water is best five miles upstream of the livestock drinking water, and at the same time, it must be boiled before drinking.

Among them, the most important cause of water pollution in the grasslands comes from livestock.

One is that the livestock drink it directly, and the second is that the livestock are coquettish near the water source, and the manure will penetrate into the water source.

Although the pollution may not be so serious in a short period of time, it is a small stream of pollution, and it is a factor that can directly cause people to disease.

And the king was not hungry, he was completely frightened.

The cause of Huo Qu's death is not particularly detailed in the history books, and it is very likely that the medical environment of that era failed to find out the cause.

Considering the trajectory of Huo Quzhi's life and the timeline of his death, the cause of his death is most likely to be drinking contaminated water during the war.

As for why no soldiers were affected, it can only be said that the history books will not record those soldiers who died similarly to Huo Qu's disease, unless they can all reach Huo Qu's disease, or a lower level than Huo Qu's disease, but this is obviously impossible.

Not to mention ancient times, even in modern times, there are still a large number of hydatid diseases in pastoral areas.

Therefore, the rule formulated by Wang Buxing seems to be rigorous and harsh, and even unreasonable, but in fact, the effect is still obvious.

Zhang Buyi was also thinking.

It is absolutely impossible to do without water, and you can't stand it without drinking water at home for a day on weekdays, not to mention the need for large-scale mobile operations today.

Zhang Buyi thought hard, and a drop of morning dew suddenly fell down his hair and fell directly on the grass on the ground.

Zhang Buyi's eyes suddenly lit up, isn't this water?

"Find grass on the ground that has not been gnawed by livestock, there is some dew on it, these can be drunk directly, try to collect some after drinking, and save some today!" Zhang Buyi commanded directly.

One of the safe sources of water is to dig wells now, digging a little deeper.

But this is obviously unrealistic, there is not so much time, and there are more than 40,000 people here, and three or two wells are simply not enough.

Most of the well water is dug until it can seep out the water, and then dig it for a while, and then through the accumulation of time, the groundwater will continue to seep out, and then the soil will settle down, leaving clean water.

Even if you have plenty of water, you have to wait more than a day before you can drink it after digging it.

So, it's too late.

The second is rain, dew.

This one is also the safest, and it is not as many sources of pollution as in later generations.

Moreover, even in the later life, at most, the heavy metals exceed the standard, and drinking a small amount is not a big problem, and it will not directly lead to illness and loss of life.

Although there is little dew, it is still water.

It took a while to put in the mentality of the people who were doing it and they didn't drink enough at one time, but talking is better than nothing, and I finally feel less thirsty.

Some people are troublesome, so they simply pick off the leaves with water droplets directly, hold them with both hands and suck them in their mouths, and then rub them and chew them twice in their mouths.

Although it tastes bad, it can solve some problems.

As for collecting dew, there's really no time for this.

After a short period of rectification, the army began to march.

In the distance, you can even faintly see the smoke coming from the Hun camp.

On the Han side, the Han army is still moving forward unhurriedly, as if the athletes are doing the final warm-up exercise before going on the field.

At noon, the Han army was only ten miles away from the Xiongnu camp.

But because of the terrain, the Huns have not yet found traces of the Han army.

Another reason is that Zhang Buyi has increased the force of scouts today, and all the scouts who came out of the Hun camp were strangled with all their might, prohibiting them from coming to investigate the military situation.

"An hour and a half, settle the battle!" On the war horse, Zhang Buyi thought about it and said lightly.

"General, what about so many people, and so many livestock...... Chai Wu was a little worried, this undressed man is getting more and more blind, solving one or two hundred thousand people in an hour and a half?

"Enough ......"
