The Donghu tribe, which has been plowed by the Huns, has no strength to fight again?

If you said that you were reluctant to be unwilling before, so you resisted a little bit.

Then this time, when the Han cavalry was still far away from the camp, they directly hung out the banner of surrender.

There are either wounded or old and young women and children in the camp, how can this battle be fought?

Especially when these Donghu people saw that the person who appeared in front of them was not a Huns, not to mention the shock on their faces.

Seeing that the Han army just surrounded the camp, they did not rush in directly.

Many people breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, they were clever enough to directly hang out the banner of surrender, otherwise, these three thousand iron horsemen would have all died......

The Yueshi acted as an interpreter, and soon understood the ins and outs of the whole thing.

"In order to prevent them from escaping, and also to be able to control the Donghu captives, the Huns only left them with supplies that barely lasted until the winter......" Bayar kindly translated.

"General, this Huns did it ruthlessly enough, they didn't even leave a single war horse!" Han Xin was a little speechless.

The Yueshi had already told them about this situation, but when they really saw it, they were still a little surprised.

However, there seems to be nothing wrong with dealing with the enemy.

"The Huns are preparing for the future integration!" The baby nodded.

The meaning is already obvious.

The family and children all stayed, leaving supplies, although not much, but they can last until winter.

And in Maudun Shan Yu's plan, the battle was almost over before the fall, or it would be sooner.

At that time, the family members are still alive, and those Donghu soldiers who surrendered will not have much resistance.

After a period of rectification, didn't the strength of the Xiongnu be completely enhanced?

The culture and customs of the steppe have led to a lack of a sense of belonging.

It doesn't matter if the strong is the king, or if you have milk, you are the mother, almost all of them are like this.

Whoever has the biggest fist will follow whomever he wants.

"This Mao Dun is not simple, no wonder Your Majesty said that the Xiongnu will definitely be the mortal enemy of the Han Dynasty in the future!" Looking at the eyes, the baby had to sigh.

"Yes, along the way, we haven't seen a single Hun, and finally encountered a camp, or is this the case, general, what should we do now?" Han Xin also found it a little difficult to do.

"Once the Xiongnu swallow Donghu, their strength will be doubled, and at that time, whether the Han can still take the initiative is another matter." The baby said with a tight frown.

"Your Majesty has taken this into account when you force the army to go on the expedition this time, and the best way is naturally to join the battlefield and attack them indiscriminately when the Xiongnu and Donghu are fighting."

"But for now, we're still a step slower......"

When they were in Luoyang, Guan Ying and others had been thinking about these issues.

And it is summarized into three difficulties, the first of which is to find it.

The characteristics of the nomads gave the Central Plains Dynasty a headache, they were all cavalry, they had no fixed residence, they were erratic, and it was actually difficult to find them in the vast grassland.

Sometimes even they themselves may not be able to find it, and they need the tribes along the way to point them in a general direction.

This problem also plagued the Han army now, even if there were Yue's people to act as guides.

And along the way, they can only make sure that the general direction does not deviate, and then the reconnaissance and tracking of the enemy can only be determined by relying on the traces left on the ground.

Footprints, feces, these are their main reference targets.

But this method is not particularly accurate, because he can only be sure that there are people in front of him, but he cannot be sure whether it is the main force or ordinary herdsmen passing by.

Don't count on horse dung and cow dung or anything, this thing is not a fertilizer in the grassland, but a fuel for making fires and cooking.

Therefore, almost everything that can be seen on the ground is sheep dung.

This makes it even more difficult to judge the situation of the enemy passing in front, plus the main force at the forefront, logistics in the middle, and finally the family members and children, the traces of these people passing by are enough to cover up the traces of the main force passing by.

And in the steppe, if you can't find the enemy, then what kind of battle is there?

The second is naturally to catch up.

After getting a batch of war horses from the Yueshi, the second situation faced by the Han army was slightly better.

But in fact, it was not much better, because the weight of the equipment of the Han army was too large, and it was also a burden for the war horses.

Compared with the lightly armed Hun cavalry, the Han army did not have an advantage in long-distance marching and other aspects.

Even with cavalry, it's as stupid as a propeller plane has to compete with a jet plane.

The third is how to fight.

It may seem ridiculous to say, but on this issue, it is the issue that has been discussed by the entire court for the longest time.

Is it to beat them away?

Or did they break their heads and bleed?

Or do you directly fight them to exterminate the race?

Therefore, only after discussing how to fight can we focus on solving the first two problems.

And now, the question in front of the baby is the third, how to fight?

"All women under the age of thirty, including girls, should be taken away, and the cattle and sheep should be left for them only for a month, let them fend for themselves!" The baby clenched his teeth.

The Donghu people are also enemies.

Although Wang Buyu did not rank the more powerful Donghu as the number one enemy of the Great Han, he did not even rank the number one.

But then Donghu will also be incorporated into the Xiongnu and become a force for the Xiongnu against the Han Dynasty.

In the end, the baby was given the decision to adopt the emperor's advice to him.

"General, what's the use of keeping them? What if they tell us when we're gone? And those women, in fact, they are not much use, why don't you kill them all, or use the two of us as slaves? Bayard looked pitifully at the baby, hoping to get some benefit from it.

"If you want those people, you can just take them away, but women and girls, General Ben wants to take them away!" Guan Ying said directly, without giving Bayar any room for bargaining.

"......" Bayard closed his mouth in amusement.

The rest are basically old people, little boys, and disabled people, what do you want them to do?

Wasting your own resources?

In Bayar's opinion, those women were still somewhat useful, but when the baby said that he would take it away, he didn't dare to have any ideas.

"General, we want those little boys!" Batu on the side hurriedly said.

"Hurry up and pick it, the army will go out immediately!" I didn't care about the baby, what was the use of those people?

Maybe it will be useful in the future, but for now, they will never want it.

"Batu, you're too impulsive, it's still a question of whether those children can be fed, it's a waste of food to bring them back, it's better to have some women!" Bayard was somewhat dissatisfied with Batu's decision.

Batu smiled slightly, and said: "These little boys can almost graze after two or three years, and if they raise them for another four or five years, they will be able to go into battle to kill the enemy, although the Yue clan does not lack these people, but the two of us are lacking, a few years later, maybe these people are our real henchmen!" ”

"Can you stay and talk about it, or ......" Bayard felt that there was not much hope for this matter, so his mood was not high.

……

On the other hand, the Han army is also picking out eligible women and girls.

As for why only those under thirty years old.

That's because the living environment on the grassland is too harsh, and living here all year round has already had a certain impact on their bodies.

According to the survey, the average life expectancy of the peoples in the steppe is not even thirty years old.

Of course, there is an element of war, but also a lot of environmental and medical factors.

Even in the Han Dynasty, the average life expectancy may be surprising to say, less than thirty years old.

Of course, the average life expectancy does not tell the whole story, because according to this algorithm, the average life expectancy of the emperors of the Han Dynasty in history was only 28 years old.

It is still subject to the influence of medical treatment, life and other factors, so the premature mortality rate is particularly high, and it is precisely because of these high premature mortality rates that the average life expectancy of ancient humans has been lowered.

Wang Buqi once asked the household department to select three counties from each of the three counties of Sanchuan County, Yingchuan County, and Nanyang County, excluding those who joined the army, and counted the average life expectancy of the remaining population over 20 years old who died normally within three years.

Naturally, it is meaningless to count only one year, but since these places became the territory of the Han Dynasty.

The data obtained is that the average life expectancy is around 41 years.

Although this detailed data was not counted back then, the 60 sentences and 70 deaths were also customized for this reason.

It's not that I haven't lived too long, but it's very rare.

"Would you like to pick a few and make a reservation?" Watching the groups of women being picked out and standing in line to the side, Han Xin joked with a smile.

"Get out!" Originally, he wanted to scold, but if he scolded him, it would be too hurtful, so he turned around and said: "No matter how anxious General Ben is, he can't rob the women of the brothers!" Besides, General Ben also has a wife! ”

"I don't know how long this expedition will take...... Han Xin continued to quip.

"If you want to find one yourself, don't worry, after you go back, the old man will never mention half a word to your wife!" Filling a baby has no good airway.

"Where is this, general, even if I bring it back, Madame won't say anything, just share it." Han Xin laughed.

"It's best not to mess around, just take it home directly, Your Majesty said, these women are to be given to those men who can't get women, and the other is to reward the meritorious soldiers as small ......" Guan Ying reminded again.

It's okay to say that if you play it, you will play it, and they don't know anyway.

But before it is issued to bachelors, these meritorious soldiers will be selected first, and the rest will be those bachelors.

So, the woman you picked may not know about being given by that dog......

Ahem......

That's what it means.

As for the reason, it's simpler......
