Chapter 275: Endless Bitterness

Again, the population of the Han Department is too small, and it is necessary to use any means to increase the number of people. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Raiding Xuzhou is not for the land, in addition to extinguishing the threat from the south of Qingzhou, for the population!

"Will Donghai County add about 200,000 people to us?" Liu Yan really felt terrible about the governance of Shijie Zhao, even if he captured the capital to get the classics and documents, the data written on it turned out to be from the founding period of Shile, and it couldn't be used as a reference after so many years: "The number of Lanling counties is slightly small, and it is too much if it can be 100,000." ”

Mass migration will be a big problem, and then there will be a large number of docks and forts and walled cities to deal with, and if you don't solve the problem of those places, there will be no population at all.

The key issue is on Liu Yan's case, too many and too troublesome things are not lost with the end of the war, but more often.

The local Haoqiang with the dock fort and the walled city will not compromise easily, that is the foundation that the Shijie Zhao State has not cultivated for decades, and what is placed in front of the Han army is to find a typical deterrent. How to deter is still a problem, and if you do it well, you can let the rest of the places compromise strongly, so as not to fight slowly one after another.

If the deterrence does not work, it is impossible for the Han army to waste so much time to fight one by one, and do not forget that the threat from Qingzhou is not only from Xuzhou, the threat of Sun Fudu in the direction of Jizhou is already imminent, and Yao Yizhong seems to be approaching Qingzhou from the direction of Yanzhou.

"Find the strongest dock fort to break through first, and give the rest of the heroes a deterrent." Sang Yu thought for a while, and said helplessly: "If it doesn't work, aren't we recruiting a large number of new recruits?" Only a small number of veterans and new recruits can attack the dock fort. ”

"Be prepared for both." Ji Chang is actually more inclined to attack Pengcheng directly, capturing Pengcheng will be the best deterrent, killing or capturing Shi Zun can also create momentum for Wang Jianguo, but unfortunately there is no time. He said: "Mobilizing new troops to come over is an urgent matter, and it happens to be on the way. ”

Don't forget that by such a waterway as Yishui, the Han army can transport troops to the front line by boat, and of course they can also transport civilians back from the front line, so the exchange can be regarded as not empty.

Originally, they thought that they would get more things in Xuzhou, but their imagination was a little different from reality, for example, they didn't get much from cereals, but the number of cattle and sheep seemed to be relatively large.

If you think about it carefully, it seems to be the same thing, most of the Hu people eat cattle and sheep as their staple food, and the plant-based food is not as good as the agricultural productivity of Shijie Zhao State, and the quantity must tend to be a minority.

"Your Excellency, horses, cows, and sheep may be difficult to transport by boat." Tian Shuo is happy with pain: "There are too many of them. ”

This time, the Xuzhou army that defeated Shijie Zhao State, because it was the end of the siege and annihilation of the trapped death, captured more than 100,000 war horses, and the total number of cattle and horses was about 170,000, which was really a large batch of materials. The corresponding amount of forage is also huge, after all, horses, cows, and sheep themselves will eat mostly forage.

"We have at least two or more big battles to go." Ji Chang smiled a little: "I'm afraid...... Sun Fudu's temptation of us has begun? ”

According to the speculation of the Han army, Shijie Zhao Guo, who had already suffered losses, should have changed his strategy, no longer coming all the way alone to be broken by each one, and launching a total attack at the same time with the momentum of thunder like Mount Tai pressing on the top?

How many troops does Liu Yan have on hand that can be used in field battles? There were about 50,000 before. The Battle of Xuzhou was over, and there were only 35,000 main forces left that could be used for combat. This is a dangerous signal, especially since the next may face more than two attacks, the main field force of the Han army still has to be fought, and it is absolutely impossible to divide it into two parts.

How to deal with it has been difficult to improve, the established plan is to find a place to build fortifications to hold, and it is for this reason that a huge amount of manpower and material resources are used to continuously improve the momentum of a complete set of corners.

"We're here for another month at most." Ji Chang looked at Liu Yan worriedly and said, "No matter how much, the rear is really unstable." ”

Liu Yan wants to pit the Jin army, but the distance is really a little far.

Looking at the speed of the Jin army's actions, and then looking at the intensity of the attack, a good Northern Expedition dragged on a bit, and the number of troops invested in nearly two months was still less than 20,000.

"The border line is too long, the Zhao army occupies the numerical advantage of the troops, and then the Yan State and Liangzhou armies that were originally scheduled to be better have not moved." Huan Wen told the truth: "The lack of Yan State and the Liangzhou Army involved the Zhao Army, and only the way of the monarch made the court feel inappropriate. ”

Liu Yan understood.

The Eastern Jin Dynasty didn't expect the Han army to do much of a thing, it was still dispensable, or it wouldn't have been when Liu Yan led the army to fight against the Shijie Zhao army, and the small ~ dynasty ~ court still wanted to engage in a conspiracy in Qingzhou.

Ji Chang asked: "If the small ~ dynasty ~ court knows that the Xuzhou army has been annihilated, will it increase troops to Xuzhou?" ”

"The border between the ruling area of the imperial court and the state of Zhao is very long, and it has often affected the whole body." Yuan Qiao smiled bitterly and said, "Although General Che Cai (Yu Bing) has tens of thousands of soldiers and horses on hand, he can ...... In addition to Xuzhou, it is necessary to deal with Yuzhou and Jingzhou. ”

"Cheng Han, who had already stopped, learned that Shi Hu was going to pour the country's troops south, and Li Shou transferred troops to punish the generals again." Huan Wen's face was helpless: "Just in the area of Bayi, Li Shou has 50,000 troops, and he may invade at any time." ”

If you look at it as a whole, there are really a lot of places that the Eastern Jin Dynasty has to deal with ~ Dynasty ~ Court, and there are flaws almost everywhere.

If the Jin army had four or five hundred thousand to deal with multiple defense areas, it would be fine, but the restrictions on population and productivity of the Eastern Jin Dynasty were small ~ dynasty ~ It was difficult for the court to raise 200,000 troops, so it was naturally restricted everywhere. I really have to thank the Yangtze River, and I have to be glad that the Hu people can't bear the water war, or the border line is so long, and the Shijie Zhao State has a complete advantage in terms of mobilizable troops, and it is strange that the Eastern Jin Dynasty can bear it.

"What!?" Yu Bing is also a beautiful man, but his handsome face is full of astonishment and disbelief: "Liu Jungong annihilated more than 100,000 Xuzhou troops? ”

The results of the fierce battle between the Han army and the Shijie Zhao army reached the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and it was already ten days ago.

"The message is accurate!" Wang Tan's head is like a chicken with a little rice, he is only thirteen years old this year, but he is very burly and majestic: "It was Yuanzi who sent back his relatives to deliver the news." ”

The news of Huan Wen and Yuan Qiao's detention was also sent back together, not written in letters, but by the personal soldiers sent back by Huan Wen with their mouths.

Yu Bing didn't have the time to annoy Liu Yan about the detention of people at all, and was completely shocked by the annihilation of the main force of Shijie's Xuzhou army: "Can't you?" Didn't Wang Luan have nearly 300,000 soldiers and horses in his hands? ”

"The real strength is more than 120,000." Wang Tanzhi had no scruples when he spoke: "Liu Jungong only used less than 50,000 troops to annihilate the 120,000, which is simply too powerful!" ”

Yu Bing looked confused: "Fifty thousand? What is the real strength of the troops? ”

No way, who doesn't talk about a claim these days? If there are thousands of people who dare to shout tens of thousands, and if there are tens of thousands, they dare to shout hundreds of thousands, and it is not strange that Yu Bing is not sure how many troops Liu Yan has.

"No, Liu Jungong didn't claim it, it was a real 50,000." Wang Tan admired his face and said: "According to Yuanzi, the armor and horses are close to 3,000, the sudden riders are nearly 10,000, and the light riders are also nearly 10,000. There are such a number of cavalry, but what Yuanzi really feels is an incomparably elite infantry army of about 10,000 people, a strong infantry army that can fight in formation in the face of tens of thousands of cavalry, and win the battle! ”

The main thing is that the battle in the formation made Huan Wen too impressed. He used a lot of words to introduce the Han infantry, especially emphasizing the sharpness of the bow and crossbow, and even asserted that as long as there was no shortage of arrows, no one could break them. In the end, he also reminded that the Han army is definitely not only those elite infantry troops, after all, there are 3,000 armored cavalry alone, and there are nearly 10,000 assault cavalry, it makes no sense that the elite infantry army will only have 10,000.

"No wonder......" Yu Bing's face was melancholy: "Liu Jungong dared to raise the Han flag in the Central Plains full of Hu people, how could he not rely on it?" It's hard to understand how it has been in just four years. ”

"General, the Xuzhou army has been destroyed, and the defenders of Jiangdu and Jiangshui Temple must panic." Wang Tan's face was longing: "It is no longer a problem to capture Jiangdu and Jiangshui Temple, we should take advantage of the rare opportunity to raise troops to cross the river and take the Huaiyin area at this time!" ”

Of course, Yu Bing knew that now was the best opportunity, but he had doubts, big doubts: "After Liu Jungong annihilated the main force of Shijie's Xuzhou army, could he enter Pengcheng?" ”

"This Motoko didn't say." Wang Tanzhi thought for a while: "Liu Jungong shouldn't go to fight Pengcheng, should he choose counties that are easy to attack to expand the results?" ”

Yu Bing is not sure how many troops Liu Yan has in his hands, and then whether Liu Yan has the heart to capture Xuzhou. According to Yu Bing's opinion, Liu Yan did not pay attention to the territory of Shijie Zhao before, but tried his best to develop overseas lands.

"Let's find out." Yu Bing's heart was full of entanglement, and he was silent for a while before he said: "If Liu Jungong enters Pengcheng, we will increase our troops to the north." ”

Wang Tanzhi glanced at Yu Bing deeply, and blinked his lips: "Is it the waste in the back that is pulling back again?" ”

Yu Bing's face was bitter: "I expected it." ”

It was not only the family that pulled the Northern Expeditionary Army back, but it was the Sima royal family who contributed the most. Recently, the south of the Yangtze River can be described as a change, especially the Sima royal family is the most active.

Sima's family was actually a little frightened and couldn't stand it, one was the pressure from Shijie Zhao Guo to pour the whole country south, and the other was the strength mobilized by the Yu family and the Huan family. They themselves usurped Cao Wei to establish the country, how can they not be afraid that they will also be usurped? Therefore, for the Sima royal family, beware of their own courtiers is a must-do, and ensuring that the royal family is worry-free is countless times more important than the Northern Expedition.
