Chapter 112: Speaking of "rites" is also divided into objects

Later, LΓΌ Wu learned the reason why Han Ju ordered him to go north.

It turned out that Han Ju asked the military god Wu to make a hexagram, and the hexagram showed that it was auspicious to the north.

Military operations are actually decided by hexagrams?

This is really an operation in the Spring and Autumn period.

Whoever each country wants to fight with, basically it will invite gods and witches to perform divination, and once the hexagram is shown as "fierce", believe it or not, a military operation will be canceled?

And this is the old habit of "Zhou".

Of course, Lu Wu was in a marching posture, riding in a chariot.

It should be said that the entire "lower army" was marching northward, but it did not converge, several "divisions" separated, and when they arrived at the meeting point, they gathered again.

Lu Wu was somewhat dazed now.

He thought to himself: "It's because my status is not enough, and I didn't know how many times I needed to divinate before sending troops?" ”

No matter what era you are in, you really have to have a certain status to know more.

They went all the way to the north, and on the way they encountered the Hu tribe, and they would usually solve it easily, but they did not encounter a large force of Hu people.

It took seventeen days and nights to cross the river from a shoal to the east bank.

Lu Wu remembers it very clearly......

Isn't this shoal just a place to avoid pursuit?

Continuing to march forward, he also found that he was too familiar to be able to do it.

In fact, there is no relationship with the map, otherwise if he glances at the map, he can confirm the route of the march, which is the area of their last activity, and he doesn't have to wait for the field to come back to his senses.

"...... here" Huo Qian's reaction arc was relatively slow, and he reacted when he saw the ruins left by the previous sweep, and said, "Could it be ......"

You don't need to be "Mo Fei", you can be more confident.

Lu Wu didn't go to find Cheng Hua, telling him that he was very familiar with this area.

A few performances gave him a kind of realization, and it was natural to behave if he wanted to, but he couldn't be too high-profile, so as not to take everyone for a fool.

They arrived at the rendezvous site and stopped to await the arrival of the follow-up troops.

Lu Wu, who wanted to keep a low profile, was summoned by Cheng Hua.

Cheng Hua saw Lu Wu, there was no extra nonsense, and said directly: "There will be an order for the next army." ”

It is right that the general of a regiment does not give orders directly to a brigade commander.

There is a rule for everything, it is taboo to report to a higher level, and it is also very difficult for a subordinate to command a subordinate who overstepped.

Lu Wu listened to Cheng Hua's relay.

Han Ju, who commanded the whole army, did not forget some details, how could he forget that Lu Wu and others had come to [ ] this area.

He gave instructions to Cheng Shui and ordered their "division" to find the logistics camp of Bai Zhai's army and solve it alone.

The topography of a place will determine many things, and some areas are suitable for what to do, and there will never be a place that is not suitable.

Bai Zhai has evolved to be semi-nomadic and semi-agrarian.

Lu Wu has already witnessed this with his own eyes, but there are far more nomadic Di people than those who specialize in farming.

Since they are mostly nomads, how can they not carry horses, oxen, and sheep in the army?

Herds, on the other hand, are generally placed outside the formation of the army, and instead of following the army, they usually fall behind the army.

Lu Wu's instructions to Han Ju to solve the logistics of Bai Zhai's army were taken for granted in an accident.

It will be surprising that it is nothing more than an era when "etiquette" is still emphasized, and the countries that pursue the war of "conquest" know where the enemy's logistics line is, but they also turn a blind eye.

There is even a rule that posterity cannot understand!

That's the two warring armies, they don't hunt down each other's messengers to deliver messages at all, and if they see it, they don't see it.

Wouldn't it be strange to know this fact?

However, facts are facts.

It is also a natural premise, Bai Zhai is not counted among the nations, and what the Jin State wants is to exterminate them, not to defeat them and then collect protection money.

This also gave Lu Wu a wake-up call.

Unless you have the strength to break the rules, it is better to act within the framework of the rules.

The fact is also like this, as a member of the circle, you can still be reasonable, if you are kicked out of the circle, it will be the end of the Hu people?

Lu Wu thought, "I'm embarrassing my peers, right?" ”

Most of the traversers, who have not gone to strange places, have been thinking about breaking the rules all day long, and even can't wait to do it.

He couldn't understand it a bit.

People with small arms and legs, where do they have the courage to use their small bodies to fight the whole world?

The order is very clear, but it is not only the "brigade" of Lu Wu to carry it out.

The commander of the operation was Cheng Hua, the "handsome", who took a whole "division" to act together.

Lu Wu recalled the terrain and could roughly judge where a large number of livestock could be accommodated at one time, but he didn't dare to confirm it 100%.

In fact, it is enough to have a direction, and the next thing is nothing more than sending scouts to investigate.

The scouts sent out came back one after another.

Their proclamation made Cheng Hua's eyes look at Lu Wu more and more strangely.

"Wu ......" Cheng Hua first said that Lu Wu's guesses were all correct, and then said: "You will attack the north side." ”

Lu Wuying: "No! ”

He was a little puzzled by Cheng Hua's eyes when he looked at him.

Now that you know where the best places are for large-scale grazing, isn't it natural to look for them?

He was actually completely surprised that he guessed all of this kind of thing.

This kind of action of attacking the enemy's logistics troops, whether it is now or in the future, is basically a matter of nine out of ten things if you do not make stupid mistakes.

Lu Wu is a very "stable" person, and his thinking is more complex than that of the real Spring and Autumn people.

He didn't pounce on him straight, first had a short meeting with his subordinates according to the custom, explained what he thought clearly, and waited for his subordinates to understand his ideas before assigning tasks.

The nobles who transferred this "brigade", they had cooperated with Lu Wu at least once, and they were not surprised, but they were still surprised.

There's nothing simpler than knowing what you need to do and just doing it.

It's just that there are more commanders and generals, who always like to make arrangements at the end of the day, which not only makes them scramble, but also their subordinates are caught off guard.

LΓΌ Wu's assignment was not complicated.

He divided his troops into three parts, and personally led fourteen chariots and a thousand soldiers as the main force to break through from the front.

Huo Qian led six chariots and 500 soldiers to attack from the eastern flank.

The remaining part was the auxiliaries, and they had only one task, to attack the horses, cattle, and sheep of the Hu people.

Among the auxiliaries, there are actually still samurai.

After all, some nobles brought a surplus of samurai, but not every samurai would be included in the battle sequence.

On an afternoon with dark clouds floating in the sky, LΓΌ Wu gave the order to attack.

The first chariot he was in was at the head, with an equally high-speed chariot at every ten paces or so on the left and right flanks, followed by soldiers running on foot.

"Weird?" Lu Wu's hand was attached to the edge of the chariot, his body swaying with the bumps of the chariot, and he thought: "The Hu people in these years are so stupid, they didn't think about arranging sentry posts and early warning personnel on the periphery??? ”

The last time they entered the territory of the Hu people, unless they happened to encounter it, every tribe of the Hu people really did not arrange a peripheral warning.

This time, the Hu people are assembled into an army, even if it is a logistics force, it is also an army.

However, why is there no vigilance that an army should have?

The raid kicked off with the sound of horses' hooves and wheels.

While the Hu people were walking, singing, and working, they found that an army was moving towards them at high speed.

A desolate trumpet sounded from inside the camp.

Knowing that the Hu people were attacked, they blew it up directly.

What Lu Wu saw was that the Hu people were assembling very quickly, and soon a force of about six or seven hundred men and horses rushed out of the camp, followed by many more one after another.

It was too far away for him to see clearly the equipment and composition of these Hu people.

The wait was getting closer, and he could see clearly.

The Hu people who came out of the camp were men, women, and children, and most of them were young and strong.

They galloped and screamed "ho-ho-ho" from their mouths.

Lu Wu saw that the oncoming Hu people began to slow down, and then saw them dismount one after another, and thought, "Sure enough! Even the Di people, who grew up on horseback since childhood, entered the combat state on foot, not riding and slashing. ”

Actually, it's not just now.

Even in the future, it is necessary to wait for the spread of saddles and stirrups, otherwise there are not many riders who can fight on horseback.

Therefore, it is better to say that it is cavalry, than that of infantry on horseback.

The Hu people who got off their horses were lining up.

In fact, they don't have any formation, they just crowd people, stand in a scattered manner, and then wave the various weapons in their hands, and shout all kinds of cries with their mouths.

Lu Wu pondered whether to follow the customs of the Spring and Autumn Period, that is, the aristocracy, to order the army to stop and chat with the other party's people with status and status?

"Am I having a bad brain?" Lu Wu raised his spear and shouted: "Advance, advance, assault!" ”

and not against the nations.

What Han Ju wanted was to obtain the logistics materials of Bai Zhai's army.

Cheng Hua's instructions are also very clear, as long as he can solve the other party.

Etiquette is full of aristocratic style, and it is the opponent of the Chinese cultural circle, so it needs to be observed.

Several high-ranking people did not plan to play aristocratic style with the Hu people, so there was no risk of bad reputation if they did so.

What kind of "etiquette" did Lu Wu talk about at this time!

The chariot galloped under the guidance of the horses' hooves.

The war horse pulling the cart, facing the scattered arrows that came at it, rushed into the crowd, knocked a few into the air in an instant, and then ran through the not thick crowd.

The main commander on the chariot was constantly sweeping or waving his long weapon, and the royal hand was trying his best to control the warhorse, and Rong was carrying a shield in his hand to resist the arrows that came from the fire.

The Hu people who stood in formation without a point, they were actually frightened into confusion before the chariot approached, and many of them turned around and ran.

The chariot broke up the formation of the Hu people, and continued the assault straight ahead.

They were followed by soldiers who came on foot and bounced, and they collided with the Hu people.

At that moment, like hot metal meeting cheese, the Jin soldiers did not encounter much help, and completed the chiseling in a short time.

Lu Wu stabilized his figure, took the time to turn around and look back, seeing that his soldiers were still running with all their might, he was very amazed at the physical strength and endurance of people at this time.

The Hu people who had left the camp to block the attack were completed in one charge, and the road to attack the camp was opened to them......
