Chapter 423: Don't Forget, We're a Forbidden Army
Although Zhang Buyi is reluctant on the surface, there is actually no one more worried than him.
That's right, all this is a bureau arranged by himself.
When he wanted to back down, the first one to stand up and lead the rhythm was the general he picked up with one hand.
As an actor, Zhang Buyi, after acting in this scene, began to really enter the role.
The Hun scouts outside the Great Wall must be disposed of, otherwise they are like the eyes of the Huns.
Wherever the Han army went, they would follow closely and tell the Huns about the Han army's every move.
So, taking advantage of the night, Zhang Buyi sent 2,000 forbidden troops out of the Great Wall and hid them according to the pre-reconnaissance position.
At dawn the next day, the Hun scouts reappeared.
And this time they weren't as lucky as before.
was directly caught by the forbidden army who had ambushed in advance.
Scouts don't need too many people, and more people are more likely to expose them.
The Huns mostly formed a team of ten people, each with three horses, and then sent dozens of teams to different areas to investigate.
According to this scale, it doesn't actually take many people to detect a situation within a range of one or two hundred miles, but two or three thousand people are enough.
The unsuspecting Hun scouts were caught off guard by the forbidden army, and because they had been surrounded, they couldn't even find a chance to run.
And seeing that the forbidden army that went out to ambush had already closed the team.
Zhang Buyi, who was standing above the pass, waved his hand: "Send troops!" β
The 80,000 cavalry, which had been prepared for a long time, began to exit the customs in an orderly manner.
Of course, the total strength was more than 80,000, and it was naturally impossible for Zhang Buyi to take them all away, so he still left a few thousand cavalry to guard the house.
Otherwise, with only those 2,600 city defense troops, they would never be able to hold it, and besides, their mission here was only to collect food.
"General, our speed ...... I'm afraid that when we arrive, the Huns will almost run away......" Zhang Ao found Zhang Buyi who was mixed in the army with a desperate face.
Well, although it came out, it still didn't change its timid attribute.
The generals are still Huo people, and Zhang Buyi is hidden in the forbidden army.
Okay, hide it, hide it, you're a general, how to fight what you say, as long as you come out.
But......
For a cavalry unit, a march of forty miles a day will not take a single step.
What does this mean?
Zhang Ao could even guess what he would say when Han Xin came back?
The Han cavalry led by Zhang Buyi has already lost the face of the Han cavalry.
The cavalry attacked, and if you don't run eighty or ninety miles a day, you are embarrassed to say that you are a cavalryman?
Even at the beginning of Han Xin's army, when the weather conditions were extremely unsatisfactory, they still marched fifty or sixty miles in one day.
After the weather warmed up, a hundred miles a day was just a normal march, and there was even a record of a hundred and fifty miles a day at a critical moment.
Therefore, compared with Han Xin and them, the army under Zhang Buyi is completely out to let out the wind, paddle water, and dry salted fish!
"What's the speed?" Zhang Buyi glanced at Zhang Ao.
"General, the army has already set out, the scouts have run to a place hundreds of miles in front of us, and have also had frequent contact with the Hun scouts, basically determining their range of activities, at this time we should speed up and rush up, and strive to entangle them before the Huns react, such a slow and leisurely march, even if the Huns react slowly, they can react before we arrive, after all, a large number of Han army scouts suddenly appeared around, this is not a normal thing!" Zhang Ao patiently explained.
Well, maybe Zhang Buyi is not good at leading troops in battle.
It seems like......
This is the first time he's led a soldier on his own, right?
It seems that the forbidden army has never come out to fight alone, right?
But the official level crushed people to death, not to mention Zhang Buyi, the general of the Praetorian Guard?
It was still canonized and appointed by the emperor himself, and Zhang Ao had to explain to him in a good voice and persuade him to be good.
"Are you a general or am I a general?" Zhang Buyi asked unhurriedly.
"You...... You are the general......" Zhang Ao's head is full of black lines.
"Do you know I'm a general? Do you know more than I am? Zhang Buyi sneered.
ββ¦β¦ No...... Don't dare to ......" Zhang Ao hated and couldn't turn around and leave.
Lao Tzu has already come to suggest to you in a low voice, it's not your fault if you don't understand, you can't even listen to the words, that's your fault.
If you really knew how to fight, you would have sent troops a long time ago.
In Zhang Ao's view, Zhang Buyi has wasted a large number of fighters now.
And at this last critical moment, he was still unrepentant and seized the last opportunity to make up for the missed fighter in front.
If you don't change it, forget it, and play official power in front of yourself, if you didn't Zhang Buyi was personally appointed by the emperor, Lao Tzu would have killed you a bastard.
The great exploits are gone......
The brothers were screaming anxiously, and the little eyes were eager to make meritorious contributions, how could I explain to them......
Whether a general can win a war in the army or not is one thing, no matter whether he wins or loses, he can be regarded as having a chance.
Now Zhang Ao doesn't even have a chance to fight, if he waits until those brothers who went out to fight come back, he will be miserable in the future, and whoever follows him will be depressed.
However, Zhang Buyi didn't care what Zhang Ao thought in his heart, and there was no need to care what he thought.
Does it have anything to do with yourself?
Of course not!
Do you think your cavalry didn't fight?
Hehe, to tell you the truth, the forbidden army didn't fight!
Just ask if you're afraid?
Of course, Zhang Buyi would not say these words, he was afraid that he would not be able to return to Luoyang.
He cleared his throat and said seriously: "Since you don't dare, why are there so many words?" Didn't General Ben arrange it? Doesn't General Ben know what to do? I might as well tell you, how to fight this battle, no one knows better than General Ben! Hear me clearly, it's no one! β
"Nuo......" Zhang Ao left with some anger on his face, but he was unwilling to leave.
Zhang Ao's painstaking efforts along the way were ultimately a waste of water, and in terms of overall combat strategy, there was no such thing as a hard fight at all.
Unless it was an encounter, of course, Wang Buxing did not clearly stipulate what Zhang Buyi had to do.
In fact, whether it is for generals like Guan Ying and Han Xin who have the ability to lead troops alone, or for fledgling newcomers like Zhang Buyi, the conditions and trust given by Wang Buyi are the same.
What to do on the battlefield is up to them.
Now Dahan is a good time for trial and error, and it is a period of rapid development for integration and rectification, sorting out experience, and development and growth.
If you don't make some mistakes during this period, then these mistakes will appear in the future all-out attack.
And at that time, the loss was obviously not something that Wang Buxing could accept.
"General, are you really not afraid that the Huns will run away? Once your plan is successful, the Huns will not die and will have to shed their skin, although it is not a war, but it is better than the merit of war, this is a ......" Chai Wu, the general of the Tiger Camp, also looked at Zhang Buyi with some reluctance.
"Run, run! It's a big deal to wait for the main force of the Huns to come back, what is not fighting, it is all floating clouds, isn't it fragrant to be alive? Zhang replied lazily.
"General, in fact, we can speed up a little, or we should have asked the scouts to shrink the range before, the scouts in front of us have all been in contact with the Huns, and the army is still hundreds of miles away, this matter is ......" Chai Wu continued.
This arrangement seemed to him to be the most unreasonable, how could any scout go hundreds of miles away to fight the enemy first?
Unless you can guarantee that the army will be able to pass in two days, but now this progress is obviously impossible.
If the army wants to pass, it will take at least five days to go up, and this is still an ideal state.
Chai Wu even felt that it would be good if they could rush over in ten days.
"What, you're in a hurry?" Zhang Buyi looked at Chai Wu, who was much older than him, and was a little surprised.
"No, I just think that it is like this now, and it will be difficult to explain when His Majesty asks about it in the future!" Chai Wu hurriedly shook his head.
"Your Majesty's side should explain it, I know it in my heart!" Zhang Buyi looked ahead, and he still attached great importance to the generals under him.
Although the daily communication is not too much, but at this time, Zhang Buyi still feels that he will teach them a lesson.
So as not to make some trouble for yourself when you get it on the battlefield.
Then he spoke: "What are the conditions of those cavalry? What are our conditions? β
Chai Wu was stunned, what conditions? What's the difference?
If you really want to talk about it, it seems that the equipment of the forbidden army is better, right?
"Don't forget the forbidden army's own mission, although the forbidden army is also equipped with war horses, and it can barely be regarded as a cavalry, but riding a horse does not occupy all of our training, so compared with the two, the horse combat ability of the forbidden army is not as good as those cavalry."
"You may not know how Han Xin trained these cavalry before, but General Ben has heard that some people feel that the days are too hard to persevere, but it is useless to hold on, so they can only train desperately during the day, and at night a room of people hide in the barracks and secretly wipe their tears."
"Do you think last year's battle could be fought by anyone or not? It's too naΓ―ve, no matter how bad the equipment of the Huns is, it is still at the level of the king of the steppe, if it is really as unbearable as some people say, then how can the nomads become the strong enemies of Zhuxia for hundreds of years? β
"Besides, the standard configuration of their cavalry is one person and three horses for light cavalry, and one person and five horses for heavy cavalry, what about us? How many miles do you think the war horse under the crotch can carry us in a day? What if something unexpected happens on the way? Do you want to get off your horse and fight on foot? β
Zhang Buyi looked around very calmly, and then slowly said: "Don't forget, we are a forbidden army, we don't need to compete with them, and we don't need to make those merits!" β
