1242. The end of a warrior
Now, raising such a legion and occupying such a huge piece of wasteland can be said to be a very money-burning thing.
Although this territory is huge, it is very barren and difficult to develop, although the people here are called steppe peoples, but in fact, the grassland is a very small part of such a huge territory.
To a large extent, it is a wasteland, and even if it is developed, it is very difficult to develop, and it requires very large economic support, and at the same time, it also requires the army to guard against strong foreign enemies.
This is another big expense, and the Qi State is busy with unification and needs to expand its armaments, but part of this military expenditure has to be shared with the Northern Legion, and the soldiers of the Northern Legion, although the number is huge, but to a large extent, it cannot be deployed.
Because once the northern army is used for the unification of Kyushu, it is very likely to fall into the invasion of the Xiongnu, which is no weaker than the Kyushu countries.
At that time, the powerful Jin State, against the Xiongnu who had not yet been completely unified, needed a strong Great Wall and natural hazards to guard.
And now the Xiongnu are basically unified, and the Xiongnu at this time are far more powerful and powerful than the Xiongnu of that year.
Therefore, the Qi State must not use the Northern Army, because once it is used, the northern part of the Qi State may be lost.
So many times, the State of Qi only claims to have a million troops, but never claims to have an army of two million, because the State of Qi knows that there is a million legions that cannot be called.
Of course, now it looks like this is a money-losing business, but the Qi State controls such a large desert, and now it wants to control the Bohai Sea, what the Qi State gets is a powerful alien person, and it is also a large degree of northern security, which can make the Qi State feel at ease to compete for hegemony with the countries.
Da Wuyi looked at the rain of arrows in the sky, and his cavalry charged on war horses, but none of the cavalry rushed in front of the Qi army.
This is the suppression of weapons, because after the Qi State controlled Goguryeo, after obtaining a large amount of wasteland in the north, the Qi State was already a nomadic and agricultural country.
Of course, to deal with the three countries of Bohai, Xiongnu and Donghu, it is necessary to use nomadic methods, and the northern legions of Qi have inherited the courage and good fighting of the nomads, and at the same time have obtained the battle strategy of Qi.
The war drums of the Qi country sounded, and with the sound of the drums, the soldiers of the Great Martial Arts fell one after another, looking at the rain of arrows in the sky, the Great Martial Arts was silent for a long time: "The country of Kyushu, facing the country on the grassland, has always been in a defensive posture, it seems that it will not be long before all this will change!" ”
"The country of the grassland, the country facing Kyushu, will become a defensive posture!" Da Wuyi said lightly.
Although the situation of the war is comprehensively biased towards the Qi State, the Great Martial Arts does not have the slightest intention of retreating, what he has to do is to face the Qi State, face it in a heroic way, and face it in a fearless way.
He took out his scimitar, and then looked at the huge Qi army array in front of him, and he said lightly: "Being able to fight with the overlord of Kyushu, the Great Qi Empire, is also the most glorious thing in my great martial arts life!" ”
Ku Balon looked at the Great Martial Arts and said: "Your Excellency, you don't have to die, as long as you lay down your weapons, I guarantee with my head, Your Excellency will definitely be able to live, and you can even serve in my Qi country and complete a great feat!" ”
Kubalon can see that the great martial arts are also a talent, although he was defeated, it is not that the talent is inferior to him, but that he is too powerful behind the big martial arts, and there is nothing behind the great martial arts.
He hopes that the great martial arts can return to the Qi country and serve the Qi country, which is the fate of a talented person.
He believes that talented people should display their talents on the most perfect platform.
Da Wuyi looked at Kubalon and said: "Kubalon, you are also a celebrity on the grassland, I don't quite understand, why do you want to work for the people of Kyushu?" "Bobo
"For them, what about the slaughter of our steppe people?" The Great Martial Arts looked at Gu Balon and shouted.
Kubalon was silent for a while, and then said: "There is a saying in Kyushu that those who know the times are Junjie!" ”
"The heyday of the grassland is over, and the era of Kyushu will begin!"
"I'm just going with the times!" Gu Balon looked at the great martial arts and said.
And Da Wuyi laughed out loud when he heard it: "What a good one conforms to the trend of the times, my Da Wuyi is a stubborn person, and at the same time a soldier!" ”
"The brothers have all died in battle, if my great martial arts are still alive and surrender to those who killed them, what face will my great martial arts have to stand in the world?" Da Wuyi looked at Gu Balon and said.
Kubalon was silent and did not speak, he knew that he could not persuade the Great Martial Arts, but he still admired the Great Martial Arts very much.
Dawu Yi held his scimitar and rushed forward, his guards following him in one last charge.
The archers behind Ghubaron prepared again, and Ghubalong stopped them.
"They are heroes on the grassland, warriors on the grassland, heroes have the death of heroes, and warriors have the death of warriors!"
"They should be honorably killed by the enemy, not shot by this arrow!" Ghubalong said as he looked at the soldier beside him.
"General, if we use a bow and arrow, we can easily deal with them!"
"In this battle, we only lost less than 100 people, if we fight with these thousand horsemen, I'm afraid we will still kill 100 people!" A general beside him said.
The general saw that Kubalon was not crushing the army, but with the same number of troops, or several times more troops.
But the other side is heroic and righteous, with the determination to commit suicide, this battle, if fought like this, will inevitably lose 100 or even 1,000 people.
The general thought that this was completely unnecessary, because it could be solved with this rain of arrows.
Because the nomads in the north are very brave and good at fighting, and their strength is amazing, although the equipment on the northern legion is not the most elite, the weapons in their hands are second only to the samurai legion and the Jizhou iron cavalry, but their arrow storage is the most in the Qi country.
Because their enemy's combat effectiveness is amazing, when facing a powerful enemy like them, they believe that this requires the superiority in weapons to make up for this gap in combat effectiveness.
Although most of the northern legions were aliens, most of the Goguryeo people did not have much difference from the Qi people's way of survival, and there was still a gap between them and those fierce nomads.
Secondly, the northern legion still has Dongyi Island people, but this group of people is very good at foot combat, but the cavalry is far behind, but their skills with bows and arrows are also very powerful.
The second is some nomads who have taken refuge in the Qi country, and these people will basically be incorporated into the northern army after coming to the Qi country.
