Section 848 Chi You Hua Hu (1)
The camp of the captain of Changshui is not far from the Zhangjia Manor.
Cross the Changshui River and walk more than 300 steps to the south, and you can see the slaughtering barracks.
Flags are flying, battle flags are flying.
Riding a horse under the wall, Zhang Yue looked at the material of the wall with great interest, and was amazed.
Because, the walled wall of the camp of the captain of Changshui is not the imaginary rammed earth wall.
Instead, it is built with a mixture of sediment, reeds, straw, etc., and is built with bamboo and wood as the skeleton.
Xu Xiangru watched from the side, and saw that Zhang Yue was curious about the wall, so he explained: "Although Captain Changshui has been stationed in Neijun all the year round, however, there are things over the years, and they all need to help the border, and the victory or defeat of the border war, sometimes, depends on the speed of building the wall......
"Therefore, the six lieutenants of the Northern Army, including Captain Changshui, and the elite barracks and fortresses of other inner counties are all built by the method of building walls on the border, and they are renewed every year......"
"In this way, if you can win, you can quickly build a wall in the area, and even build a city!"
Zhang Yue listened to it and also remembered that people in later generations often said that the Great Wall of China was the Great Wall.
But that's usually the Great Wall.
Few people know that there is a Great Wall of the Han Dynasty that is several times larger than the Ming Great Wall.
The biggest difference between the Great Wall of the Han Dynasty and the Great Wall of later generations is that there is an additional section of the Great Wall that runs thousands of miles from the Hetao to the west and goes deep into the Western Regions.
Zhang Yue had always been curious, how did the Han family manage to extend the Great Wall from the site of the Qin Great Wall in Hetao to Juyan in just a few decades under the technical conditions before the Western Yuan Dynasty, and even had time to build a fortress defense system facing the Qiang people in the Hexi Corridor?
Now, listening to what the continuation said, he knew.
It turns out that the Han army will also work part-time as an infrastructure maniac!
Where is this Great Wall fought and repaired?
If you think about it, it seems that this is really the case.
In the second year of Yuan Shuo, Wei Qing recovered Henan, and in that year, he 'restored the fortress of Meng Tian when he was old in Qin, and it was solidified because of the river', and even the fortress of Jiuyuan City, which had been abandoned for a hundred years, was repaired by the Han people from scratch at lightning speed.
Even more exaggerated is the Gaoque Fortress.
As the core and fortified city of the Great Wall of Qin, Gaoque was in the hands of the Xiongnu for 150 years, experienced the wind and sun, Wei Qing attacked Henan, and when it was recovered, this once fortified city was already crumbling.
Therefore, even the Huns did not think of relying on the danger of Gaoque to hold on to help, but ran for their lives.
As a result, a year later, the Xiongnu Youxian King led the main force of his royal court with 100,000 cavalry to attack Henan, in a vain attempt to recapture the strategic location of Hetao.
And then......
100,000 Hun cavalry bumped into their heads and bled under the high gate......
Since then, the Huns have not appeared in the Hetao again.
Because, standing on the bank of the North River, Gaoque Fortress is a fortified city that they cannot capture!
In one year, the Gaoque Fortress will be repaired and it will be glorious again!
This was inhuman before the Common Era!
After repairing the defense system of the Great Wall of Qin, the Han family began a vigorous Shuofang development plan.
In ten years, 300,000 immigrants swallowed the entire Hetao into their stomachs and digested it thoroughly.
I just digested the loop, and I didn't have time to burp.
In the third year of Taichu, he ordered Guanglu Xun Xu Ziwei to build a new Great Wall along the Yinshan Mountain to the north, which stretched from Wuyuansai to the north, at 42 degrees, and extended to Luqi.
At the same time, the Han army has been building cities and walls in Hexi for more than ten years.
When the Great Wall was completed, the Hexi Defense System was incorporated into the Great Wall Defense.
And that's not all!
The point is that the Han army eats from the bowl and looks at the pot.
After the Dawan War, the Han family built another fortress defense system in Luntai Tuntian.
If one day, the flank threat can be resolved and the Huns can be driven south of the Tien Shan Mountains.
Perhaps, Luntai will also build a Great Wall connected to Juyan, extending the territory of the Han family to the Western Regions.
Now, looking at the wall of the Changshui school captain, Zhang Yue can understand why the Han family can play the role of this infrastructure madman before the Western Era.
Gain, this kind of plugging project built with straw, reeds, sand and stone, will be built very quickly!
Moreover, the raw materials can be obtained locally.
Even, its sturdiness may not be worse than the Great Wall of the Ming and Qing dynasties.
It's just that the Great Wall of this nature is difficult to resist the invasion of wind and sand.
Therefore, all that can be found on the Great Wall of the Han Dynasty in later generations is some ruins and broken ridges.
Xu Xiangru was very proud, and sold to Zhang Yue: "If you want to run Monan, it is best to build a city in Monan......"
"A barrier like Juyansai can be built in March, although the sale is a little different, but it is definitely easy to use!"
"If it is equipped with trenches, arrow towers, and enough reserves of sheep's head stones and canals, only 500 people need to hold on, which is enough to resist the siege of 3,000 Hun cavalry in January!"
"Like the city of Lady Fan, it has changed hands seven or eight times in more than ten years, the Huns destroyed it, and our army rebuilt it after recovering it, and it has never changed its solid ......"
Zhang Yue listened, looked at the wall and defense system in front of him, and nodded.
This kind of simple and easy-to-build fortress defense is clearly bullying the Huns and has no means to attack fortifications.
If the Huns want to conquer one such camp, they are afraid that they will have to fill it with their lives.
But what's the use of filling in one?
The Han family only surrounds Juyansai, there are five large barriers, and more than 100 small and medium-sized beacons and barriers.
Fill one, and there are hundreds of hard bones!
Besides, Li Guangli's corps is eyeing the outside, as long as the Huns dare to go, once they are entangled by a certain obstacle, then don't go!
Unless the Huns can find a way to annihilate the largest mobile corps of the Han army, Li Guangli's corps, in the field.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to gnaw on the defense.
However, Mo Nan will forget it......
The southern part of the desert is vast and sparsely populated, and it is impossible to afford a tight defense system like the Great Wall.
But......
It can be considered to select several strategic points on the Monan grassland and build a fort as a base for the operation and development of Monan.
Of course, Zhang Yue said with great interest: "What Xu Gong said is quite reasonable, wait for me to study it carefully!" ”
Hearing this, he immediately became elated.
Among the military exploits in history, the heaviest is the soil!
If you can establish a defense system in Monan, the scale is no less than that of Juyan and Wuyuan.
So......
The credit of his initiator, I am afraid that he can at least increase the number of food estates for himself by more than 2,000 households!
It can also bless the descendants and carry on the legacy of future generations!
……………………
From under the wall, come to Yuanmen.
The officers and officers of Captain Changshui, who had been waiting here for a long time, immediately greeted him under the leadership of Captain Cheng and Jun Sima.
"The last general is waiting to welcome you!" Dozens of generals wore armor and bowed slightly, and for a while, the blades of the armor clanged.
Zhang Yue immediately turned over and dismounted, and said politely: "All generals are exempt!" ”
Now, he is the official envoy of the Son of Heaven, and has the power to command, control, and dispose of Captain Changshui.
Only the Son of Heaven announced that he was appointed as the general of Changshui and became the rightful general.
But it's not much different.
Under the recommendation of Xu Xiangru, Zhang Yue soon basically got to know all the main generals of Changshui Lieutenant, and at the same time called up the information of these generals in his mind and rebuilt a file for them.
As a result, Zhang Yue knew the past, character, surname, and place of origin of the officers above the military rank of Captain Changshui.
As a field cavalry unit of the Han Army with Wu Hengyi as the main source of soldiers.
The distribution of officers of Captain Changshui is interesting.
Among the officers above the military level, only three are officers from Wu Hengyi, and these three are mainly serving as deputy positions.
For example, Captain Changshui's military Sima Ye Pohu, and Zuoqu's military Hou Cheng Huang Ponu.
Just from the name, you can find out how contemptuous and disdainful the fathers of these Wu Hengyi officers were for their former backgrounds.
As a result, the names of his descendants are basically slave-breaking, broken-beard, slaughtering, and killing slaves.
However......
Even so, under normal circumstances, these people face a ceiling.
Without sufficient military exploits, it is impossible to hold a regular position - unless they are willing to be sent to the county and to serve in the county army, otherwise it is difficult to hold a regular position in the field army, especially in the janissaries such as the Northern Army.
Of course, having military exploits is another matter!
The Han family has always treated meritorious people equally.
As long as there are enough military exploits, not to mention the Wuheng people, there are more than a dozen Huns who are marquis and generals!
Therefore, the elites of these three Wu Hengyi are now gearing up.
After meeting with Zhang Yue, he immediately patted his chest and promised that he was willing to be driven by the waiters, and the dogs and horses would fill the ravines first to repay the holy grace of the Son of Heaven'.
For fear that Zhang Yue would dislike their background and be unwilling to take them to meritorious service.
As for Wuheng's relatives?
All right......
Who's that?
Who the is related to these Yidi?
These people were already attached to their fathers and ancestors, and even settled in Guanzhong.
I really don't know the so-called 'Wuheng people' on the grassland!
Even if Zhang Yue asked them to slaughter the Wuheng tribe, and the chickens and dogs were not left, I am afraid they would all rush to do it.
Of course, Zhang Yue would not do such a thing.
It's too lo, it's too off-top!
And except for the three Wu Hengyi followers, the remaining officers are basically all the children of the Han nobles who are rooted in the red.
However, there was also a surprise.
Liu Xu, who served as the captain of Changshui, was a Huns.
And it's the Hun royal family, after the twin clans!
That's not unusual!
A living twin? Or the twin clans who served as high-ranking officers in the Han Army's forbidden army?
It's even more curious than the rolling of later generations.
Liu Jue also knew this, and when he saw Zhang Yue's expression, he immediately expressed his attitude and said: "In the waiting, the last general is the captain of Han Changshui, not the Hun Yidiye!" ”
"The last general's father, after being the princess of Han, knew the righteousness, in the sixth year of Yuanzhen, returned to righteousness in China, the Son of Heaven gave the Liu family, and also hoped to serve in the Mingcha!"
"General, don't get excited...... Zhang Yue hurriedly reassured Liu Jue: "This official doesn't mean to look down on the general, and even has full respect for the general!" ”
Liu Yu calmed down at this time, but he still said: "Mingjian, the last general has already made up his mind in this life, and he is willing to be the Son of Heaven, exterminate the Huns, and cut off the tyranny of the Ji Congee clan!" ”
Zhang Yue said: "The general's ambition, I will go to the Son of Heaven!" ”
Liu Jue finally showed a smile and bowed: "The great grace in the service, the last general will not be able to repay it, I am willing to serve the minions and eagle dogs!" ”
Zhang Yue immediately helped him up and said: "It's all about serving the country, and if you don't talk about it, you won't report it......
In my heart, I have a good impression of Liu Jue.
Because, the file in his mind told him that Liu Yu was indeed a talent.
Before he served as the captain of Changshui, he served in many Han forbidden armies.
Hou Junzheng of the Left Army, Hou Junzheng, who served as the captain of the shooting sound, Hou Cheng of the Hou Army of the Captain of the Yue Cavalry, and Jun Sima of the Tun Cavalry Captain, have been praised for their various positions, and they have always been conscientious, and they are also very famous in the Northern Army.
It's just that because there is no military merit, it can't break through the ceiling set by the Han family for the Guiyi Hu people.
Otherwise, there must be a place for him among the six lieutenants of the Northern Army!
Regarding the unspoken rule that Hu people cannot hold a regular position, although Zhang Yue is not very supportive, he does not oppose it.
Existence is reasonable.
After all, the Han family has also suffered losses from Erwuzai.
Zhao Xin and Wei Lu are both Guiyi Hu people cultivated by the Han family.
As a result.
One taught the Xiongnu the magic of shrinking the turtle, allowing the Huns to shrink Mobei, and the strategy of consuming with the Han.
One brought the Han family's art of war, culture and other advanced systems to the Xiongnu, so that the Xiongnu learned strategy, tactics, and even knew how to surrender and accept rebellion.
Therefore, it is reasonable to be wary of the Hu people.
It's just that, as a traverser, Zhang Yue knows that such exclusion and artificially creating obstacles are actually very detrimental to national integration.
is like this Liu Jue and others, although it seems that they are very loyal.
But what about the heart?
Will they tell themselves in their hearts that I am actually different from the Han Chinese?
This is very detrimental to assimilation and even less conducive to unity.
In Zhang Yue's view, the best way is not to emphasize and tell these people about their life experience, let alone take the initiative to remind them.
The Zhuxia nation and Chinese civilization are strong enough!
As long as you don't artificially create barriers, artificial reminders and emphasis.
So, will there be any Hu businessmen who live in Chang'an today, but still dress in disguise?
Of course, now Zhang Yue is not in charge, and he is not in his position and does not seek his position.
After greeting and getting to know everyone once, Zhang Yue entered the Changshui camp surrounded by them.
In the camp school grounds, there are already soldiers standing up, all of them in full armor, waiting for Zhang Yue to inspect
Xu Xiangru introduced it on the side: "Shizhong Gong, Changshui Lieutenant, has left and right Wu Hengyi Congqu and Xuanqu Hu Qiqu before and after, and now they are all here, ready to go, waiting for the service to speak!" ”
Zhang Yue listened and nodded, Captain Changshui, although he was mainly from Wu Heng, he was also mixed with a large number of soldiers of other ethnic groups.
Tun grew up in Changshui Township, that is, Changshui Wuheng Yicong.
In the Xuanqu River, which is hundreds of miles away from Changshui Township, Xuanqu Huqi is also stationed.
Xuanqu Hu cavalry is mainly composed of Xiongnu, Yiqu, Yueshi, Linhu and other ethnic groups.
The combat effectiveness is also very strong, but it is not as famous as Wu Hengyi.
Zhang Yue looked at the elite of the Han family in the school field.
Although the name is Wu Heng Yi Cong, Xuanqu Hu Qi.
But in fact, there is no longer half of the anger in this army.
Everyone is crowned with hair and hair, with a placket and a legging.
If someone hadn't told Zhang Yue, he might not have known that this army was a Hu cavalry force composed mainly of righteous subordinates of all ethnic groups.
With a slight sigh, Zhang Yue ascended to the general platform surrounded by Xu Xiangru and others, and then turned around and looked squarely at the elite of the Han family who were in front of him, lined up in a dense queue.
