Chapter 1199: What Battle Should We Fight?
Chapter 1199: What kind of battle do we fight?
None of them were good at math, or rather, they didn't do it deliberately.
Su You said meaningfully: "The war has lasted until now, and it has been fought for seven years. After a full battle, no more than 70,000 enemies were destroyed in seven years, and with the 50,000 accounts captured before and after, the total was only 120,000...... Just now we said how many Xiongnu came? ”
Everyone looked at each other, compared to the total population of 2.5 million Xiongnu, this is ...... Twentieth?
Xu Xi said: "But there is another big victory next. Zhao Xin, a Han general who was captured by the Xiongnu, once offered a plan for Shan Yu, thinking that if he lived in Mobei, the Han soldiers would not be able to arrive. Emperor Wu did the opposite. ”
Lu Huiqing said: "Emperor Wu is a horse, 100,000 horses, 140,000 horses, and 140,000 horses, and the weight of grain is not equal. Ordered the general Qing and the hussar general to divide the army in illness. The general came out of Dingxiang, the hussar general came out, and the Xianyue desert attacked the Huns. ”
Fan Chun said: "The results of this battle on the general's side are not too big. 'Just hearing it, far away from its baggage, with elite soldiers to stay in Mobei. At dusk, the wind rose, and the Han soldiers surrounded the left and right wings. Shan Yu Du and Zhuang rode hundreds of routs to the northwest and fled. 'The general couldn't chase after him at night, and he captured and beheaded nine thousand captives. ”
"However, the hussars have won a great victory, 'more than 2,000 miles out of the dynasty, engaged the king of the left, and captured more than 70,000 people, and the king of the left will all flee." Feng wolf dwells in Xu Mountain, Zen Guyan, and returns to the Hanhai Sea'! ”
Su You said: "This battle is a decisive victory, a total of 100,000 enemies were destroyed, and the main force of the Huns was truly defeated." ”
Fan Chun said: "However, the cost of this battle is very great, and the Book of Han records: 'The two generals of the Han Dynasty went out to encircle Shan Yu, and killed 80,000 or 90,000 prisoners, and the Han soldiers and things died in 10,000, and the Han horses died more than 100,000. Although the Xiongnu are sick, they are far away, and there are few Han horses, so there is no way to go back. ’”
Lu Huiqing said: "After this battle, the Han Dynasty was unable to fight again in the short term, after Huo Qu died of illness, until the sixth year of the Yuan Ding Dynasty, the Han Dynasty destroyed the two Yue, and then sent Gongsun He to ride 15,000 miles out of Jiuyuan for more than 2,000 miles, and from the Huhou Zhao Ponu more than 10,000 horses, out of the order to live thousands of miles. ”
"To the Xiongnu River, none of the Xiongnu returned without seeing a single Xiongnu."
Many popular science articles on the Internet, writing about Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty's expedition to the Xiongnu, will choose to end here.
Su You's heart also regrets for Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, if history really comes to an end here, Emperor Wu will instead consolidate the Hetao, develop the people's livelihood, and use troops for the second time after the strength is expanded, and the strength of China may not have to wait until the Tang Dynasty to come.
sighed: "Huo Qubing attacked the Huns six times in his life, was invincible, opened Jiuquan in Hexi, captured more than 120,000 enemies, and surrendered more than 40,000 people. ”
"Wei Qing attacked the Huns seven times in his life, one fought with Shan Yu, collected Henan, and beheaded more than 50,000 captives. The border troubles of the Xiongnu were basically cleared. ”
"After sixteen years, the Han was unable to go north, the Xiongnu was unable to go south, peace was reopened, and the two countries did not fight, for dozens of six years."
"But in the past sixteen years, where have the Huns who surrendered before been settled? The Loop. ”
"A generation of Huns grew up, but they did not become Han Chinese."
"In the past sixteen years, the Han Dynasty has gradually lost control of the Hetao and Monan, where the Huns are still horse farms."
"The only thing to be thankful for is that the Han Dynasty was divided and ruled, and there was no longer a huge threat that could destroy the country."
"Sixteen years later, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty sent troops out again, and this time, there was no longer the glory of Wei Huo."
Fan Chunren sighed: "In the second year of Taichu, Zhao Ponu, the Marquis of Xunye, attacked the Huns, and was besieged by 80,000 cavalry of the Huns and defeated, Zhao Ponu was captured, and more than 20,000 cavalry were annihilated. ”
"In the second year of the Tianhan Dynasty, Li Guangli, the general of the second division, sent 30,000 cavalry to attack the right Xianwang and beheaded more than 10,000 people. The second division of the Xiongnu Great Siege was almost impossible to get off. Han soldiers and things are six or seven. ”
"Cavalry captain Li Ling will have 5,000 infantry out of Yanbei for more than 1,000 miles, and Shan Yuhui, joint battle, the mausoleum killed and wounded more than 10,000 people, the soldiers are exhausted, want to return, Shan Yu besieged the mausoleum, the mausoleum surrendered to the Huns, and its soldiers were only 400 people who escaped and returned to the Han."
"At the age of two, the Han envoy of the second division of the general 60,000 cavalry and 70,000 infantry went out of Shuofang; The strong crossbow captain Lu Bode will have more than 10,000 people, and the second division will meet, and the guerrilla general said that there are 30,000 infantry, out of the five plains; General Ao will ride 10,000 and 30,000 infantry, and go out of Yanmen. Shan Yu waited for Shuinan with 100,000 and engaged the second division. The second division was relieved and brought back, and Shan Yu fought for more than ten days, and the guerrilla was killed. Because of the battle between Zhu and King Zuoxian, it is unfavorable. 200,000 troops, not to mention nothing, still need to break through and return. ”
"In the third year of the Expedition, the Xiongnu invaded Wuyuan and Jiuquan and plundered the border people. The defenders of both sides went to battle, but both were unfavorable, and the captain was killed in battle. In March, Emperor Wu ordered Li Guangli to leave Wuyuan with 70,000 people, and the imperial historian Shang Qiu Cheng led more than 30,000 people out of Xihe, and Hou Mangtong led 40,000 people to ride out of Jiuquan to fight the Xiongnu. ”
However, the prince Liu was in trouble according to the witch Gu, and Li Guangli's wife and children were imprisoned. Li Guangli wanted to atone for his sins with merit, and ventured into the wave war, and 70,000 Han family sons and daughters were wiped out. ”
Su You sighed: "Counting from the second year of Taichu, it is another seven years, and the Han army has lost more than 100,000 people before and after, and the exchange ratio played by Wei Huo has been filled in again. ”
"The Han people are no longer able to go north, the world's household registration has been greatly reduced, the Hetao Monan cannot be enriched, and the Huns still account for the vast majority of the population of the two places, and Huo Qubing arranged the five Xianbei to monitor the Xiongnu in the north, and quietly rose."
"Since then, the Han court has been in decline, and it can only carry out a foreign policy of division and disintegration towards the Xiongnu."
"Fortunately, it has played a very good effect, and the Huns are barely stable in Monan."
"In this way, it was not until a hundred years later that the great general Dou Xian led 10,000 people to fight against the Northern Xiongnu, Le Shi Yanran, killed more than 13,000 soldiers below the famous king, captured more than 100,000 horses, cattle, sheep, and camels, and 81 people who came to surrender, and more than 200,000 people before and after, and the Xiongnu were basically wiped out here."
"Speaking of which, this battle is a good deal, only from the number of enemies destroyed, the results of this battle are equivalent to the sum of Emperor Wu's forty-four years of conquest of the Xiongnu."
Fan Chunzheng shook his head: "Actually, in fact, at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, various ethnic groups poured into the Central Plains, among which the Huns were the most numerous. It is known in history as 'Guanzhong has a population of more than 100,000, half of Rong Di lives, and Han and Hungarian people live together'. ”
"These Huns did a lot of 'big things', and Liu Yuan, who later claimed that the emperor established the Han Zhao Dynasty, was the Huns."
"After Xianbei became strong, the Xiongnu intermarried with the Xianbei family, and this part was called 'Tiefu'. Tiefu's descendant Helian Bobo built the capital of Chang'an, called Daxia. ”
"The Yueshi people who are integrated into the Xiongnu are called Lu Shuihu of the Xiongnu Bebo. Later, he was frustrated and killed Duan Ye and built Beiliang. ”
Su You said: "The rise of Xianbei is also related to Dou Xian's defeat of the Northern Xiongnu: after the Northern Xiongnu moved westward, Mobei was occupied by Xianbei, and there were still more than 100,000 remnants of the Xiongnu, all of whom called themselves Xianbei, and Xianbei gradually flourished. ’”
Fan Chunzheng nodded: "The Huns have integrated into Yuwen Xianbei, who is close to Goguryeo. Later, the Yuwen clan usurped the Western Wei Dynasty and built the Northern Zhou Dynasty. ”
Su You then spread his hands: "Wulang's style of play, let's not talk about whether there is a risky and radical factor, even if it is a complete victory, what is the difference between it and the strategy of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty?" ”
"As a result, it is still 'not enough to gain the land for profit, and it is more likely that after sweeping the circle, it will come back as usual, and it will not be able to form an effective occupation."
"After experiencing the experience of the Hetao Pass in the late period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, as well as the tragic historical lessons of Wuhu Chaohua, our Great Song Dynasty, do we want to repeat such a war?"
Everyone fell silent, Su You's historical and strategic outlook was too different from their imaginary battle to destroy the country, and it was difficult to judge the merits for a while.
Or Lu Huiqing broke the silence: "Mingrun, if the strategy of the seed is not advisable, how do you think it should be fought?" ”
Su You said: "In fact, Wulang's strategy was completely no problem at the beginning, because as far as the national strength of the Great Song Dynasty at that time was concerned, it was completely possible to fight for the stability of Western Xinjiang for 20 years. ”
"After that, we can work hard to discover the people's livelihood, stimulate the population, and cultivate a generation, and then we can fight again."
"But now, it's obviously a little out of place."
"The national strength of the Great Song Dynasty has now made great progress, from Hengshan to Hehuang, there are sortie locations everywhere, Goro, your vision should no longer be limited to Hengshan."
He looked at the terrain on the Song-Xia border and fell into thought.
Su You continued to introduce to others: "Actually, Gorou has also adjusted his strategy, and I think his adjustment is very meaningful. ”
He himself was a little confused: "Which time?" ”
Su You pointed to a small dot on the map: "Here, build the city of Luowu." ”
That time, it was a big stain on the body of the cultivator, the city of Hello was besieged, and the cultivator was so frightened in the rear that he couldn't even give combat orders, it can be said that there was no silence at all when the famous general was on the verge of a landslide and did not change color, and his performance could be scored zero.
Chong Ge was full of shame: "Chong Ge is ashamed, that time we suddenly came to the enemy, and we were defeated." ”
