Chapter 395: Quick, Surrender

The subordinates of Bayar and Batu basically followed, and the rest were also grazing not far away, basically they could come over in three or five days, and they were able to keep up with the Han army.

However, the baby did not intend to wait any longer, but immediately had the leather coats distributed, and then ordered to go directly to the expedition early tomorrow morning.

The Huns had already moved, and if they continued to delay here, the battle would have almost ended when they reached the place.

As for logistics.

There are almost 10,000 people brought by Bayar and the others, and it is enough to barely control the cattle and sheep first.

Let people go back quickly to inform and bring people to catch up quickly, but it is only a few days' work.

"General, this is going to steal the people of the Shiyue Clan!" Han Xin laughed.

"It's called knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent!" The baby was corrected directly.

What is stealing or not stealing, how ugly is it?

Immediately afterwards, there was a sigh: "If you want to say that this majesty is real, why is everything so thoughtful?" ”

"This is also His Majesty's arrangement?" Han Xin was stunned for a moment, feeling a little shocked, this majesty seems to be a little demonic.

"Hmm!" Guan Ying nodded, and then said: "Your Majesty said that grassland warfare is different from plain warfare, cavalry warfare pays more attention to mobility, and fighting in a traditional way will definitely not have any good results, so in terms of marching mobility, we must learn more from the grassland people." ”

"Bayard and Batu are not heirs, but these two can be put to good use. They have seen the strength of the big man, but the ability of these two people is insufficient, at this time they need to provoke their ambitions, give them some sweetness, let them see some hope, these two people will definitely cooperate. ”

"And the Yueshi people who are mixed into the main force can tell us how the cavalry troops can move quickly, follow behind the grazing, and can also tell us what distance should be kept and what kind of way to assist, these are the things that the Han army lacks the most at the moment."

Han Xin nodded a little confusedly.

He thought of the question.

But I didn't think so comprehensively.

Han Xin's own idea is to learn the way of the steppe people to fight and ensure logistics.

The vehicles transporting grain are on the grassland, especially at this time of year, and the capacity to pass is very worrying.

So his plan was to have some of the people graze after the army.

The way is right, but Han Shin ignores that grazing is not simply herding.

Ordinary grazing only needs to have pasture, and it doesn't matter how fast or slow it is, unless it needs to be accelerated to catch up with seasonal changes.

But fighting a war and grazing is different, he needs to feed these livestock.

At the same time, it is necessary to always maintain a certain distance from the army, so that the army can be resupplied at any time.

Obviously, the steppe people are absolute experts in this area.

No matter how thoughtful Han Xin was, without the help of the grassland people, he would definitely have problems.

Why did Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty fight the Huns for more than 40 years?

War naturally takes time to prepare, and often the entire Han Dynasty takes three or five years to prepare before it can guarantee a large army to go out once.

And the early expedition is full of unknowns every time.

In front of them is a grassland where they know nothing, what is about to happen there, and how to deal with problems when encountered, they are all ignorant.

But the battle can't be fought, so the first few times Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty fought with the Huns, he was basically groping for experience.

As a result, in the early Han-Hungarian War, there was a lost party, the regiment annihilated the party, and the vitality of the party was greatly damaged......

Every piece of experience, the Han Dynasty took back and spent a few years to digest and absorb it, and then the next time, another problem occurred, or the same problem.

For example, the first siege of Mayi, after being detected and retreating, the Han army did not besiege in time, resulting in the safe evacuation of the Huns, and this battle gave birth to the first salted fish party of the Han Dynasty, Gongsun He.

The second battle was the Battle of the Grassland, which gave birth to the Lost Party, the Salted Fish Party and the Gongsun He Army of the Tourist Group, the Yuanqi greatly injured the Party Gongsun Ao, and the regiment wiped out the Party Li Guang.

In every battle in the future, there were always various problems in the big man, but the experience was also accumulating, and the progress bar was rising rapidly.

Then in the final battle of Mobei, Li Guang successfully inherited Gongsun He's lost party, and led the army around in circles, and when Wei Qing was preparing to clean up the battlefield, he came......

And this time, in order to make Li Guang's dream come true, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty gave him an extremely luxurious configuration.

Zhang Qian, the grassland pass, has been following Li Guang, and I don't know if Zhang Qian is useless?

It was the aura of bad luck on Li Guang's body that shrouded Zhang Qian, and even Zhang Qian, the grassland map, was lost.

Of course, this is just a matter of luck.

But as Wang Buying, who stands on the shoulders of giants and walks over again at the end of history, he will never allow such low-level mistakes to occur.

Historically, though, this isn't a mistake, because they are inexperienced.

But Wang is not hungry, although he does not have much experience, he knows to go to experienced people to borrow experience.

Yue's is a good target for stealing teachers.

Of course, to say that there is no experience at all is to be false.

The addition of Achar and others gave the Han army some understanding of the grassland.

But the size of only a few hundred people is not enough to support the needs of an army of 100,000.

Knowing, understanding, and doing that are completely different things.

And Bayar and Batu didn't know that they were actually used by the Han army, and the two of them were still making war exploits, and then went back to overthrow the heir domineeringly and inherit the dream of the Yue clan.

……

After the army left Yunzhong County and entered the grassland, it was not in a hurry to separate.

Instead, they first moved eastward together, and at the same time sent a large number of mixed scouts composed of Han troops and Yue's people, all over the area around the army for reconnaissance.

"This ghost place ......" on the third day of the expedition, Guan Ying couldn't help but scold.

The good temper has basically been tormented by the ruthlessness of the grassland in the past three days.

The troops marched slowly, a little faster than the infantry, but not much faster.

"General, don't panic, you can't go fast at this time." Bayar hurriedly explained.

"Yes general, even if it is the Huns, this time is also not fast, this environment is still very physical consumption of war horses, if it is to catch up with the speed, it will inevitably lead to the death of a large number of war horses, in addition, the logistics will not be able to keep up, the animals are going to eat, but at this time there are only some hay hidden in the snow, you must eat while walking, even if you are in a hurry, you can only use the hay prepared in advance to solve." Batu explained.

To describe it, the grassland now is like a field where it has rained for three days, and the conditions are only worse than the fields.

Even if you are a human being, if you put your foot down, the whole surface of your foot will sink into it.

The soles of the horses are smaller than the soles of the human feet, and they weigh more, so it takes a lot of effort to take almost every step.

Therefore, in the past three days, the war horse has not had a chance to run at all, and can only be ridden on it step by step.

Of course, there is one more point that Batu did not say.

The equipment of the Han army was too heavy, and the armor, coupled with iron weapons, limited the speed of the Han army.

So even under the same circumstances, the Huns would be faster than them.

Although the baby was in a hurry, he could only continue to walk slowly with patience.

The scouts who scattered out have already killed hundreds of war horses, an average of more than 30 per day, if the 100,000 army is according to the intensity of the scouts, they will become infantry before they reach the place, then what a fart?

Ten days later.

The snow on the ground had almost melted.

However, due to the temperature difference between day and night, the grassland still freezes at night.

Then it began to melt at noon the next day, and the road became muddy.

Day after day.

Ten days later.

As the temperature rises, the water evaporates much faster.

The ground was no longer as muddy as before, and the speed of the Han army was finally able to start to increase.

But the speed of improvement is also very limited, after all, this is not the best time.

According to Bayard and others, in about another twenty days to a month, the cavalry will be able to gallop freely on the steppe.

……

At the same time, it was about 800 miles northeast of the Infant Irrigation Hanxin Department.

Smoke rises from a camp, and the smell of meat wafts in.

But the people who were going to eat them didn't have much excitement on their faces.

Although they are not short of meat, they eat meat every day, and it is quite distressing to eat every day.

You can't eat it.

These are livestock that freeze to death in winter.

In the past, it could be frozen and stored when it was cold, but now that the weather is getting hotter, the ice has completely disappeared.

If you don't eat them as soon as possible, they will spoil quickly.

So this tribe plans to eat what they want to spoil first, and process everything else into jerky.

Although there is food, the number of livestock has plummeted several times, and it is even predictable that the next year will not be easy.

However, at this moment, there was a slight tremor from the earth.

The smoke overhead is the best weather vane.

The Donghu people in the camp looked into the distance with some confusion.

As the voices of the horses became louder and louder, the hearts of the Donghu people became more and more struggling, and there was a faint feeling of panic.

"Hun ......" A sharp-eyed Donghu man pointed ahead with a frightened face, and then shouted frantically.

This roar made the entire camp explode in an instant, and they all picked up their weapons and turned over on their horses.

However, when they saw the number of enemies, a look of despair could not stop flowing on their faces.

Thousands of war horses rushed into the camp at high speed, regardless of men, women, old and children, as long as they were under their own swords, they would definitely not let go of one.

Blood was sprinkled all over the camp in an instant, and the Donghu people didn't remember until now that the Huns weren't in the west?

How did they get here?

Why are they coming at this time in time?

"Quick, surrender, hang out the signal quickly, a little later, the people of the tribe will be dead......"
