Chapter 344: The Great Wall is ten thousand horses, and the white sheep is frightened for a thousand miles
There is a gap in the northwest of the Yinshan Mountain Range, which is shaped like a gate que, and is called Gaoque. The land of Gaoque is said to be the end of the Great Wall built by King Wuling of Zhao.
The poem says: "There is a city at the mouth of the que, and the ending across the mountain is called a high queshu." From ancient times to the present, it has always been heavily defended to prevent blocking the road. ”
The south of Gaoque is Henan, which is the so-called Heshuo area. Yes, the land is fertile, the terrain is flat, and there are large areas of fertile pasture suitable for grazing.
Henan has always been the land of the Central Plains, and when the Qin State launched a war to unify the six countries of Shandong during the Warring States Period, the Xiongnu took advantage of the chaos in the Central Plains to attack and seize the natural pasture of Henan.
In the thirty-second year of the first emperor, after the Qin State set Kyushu, he launched the battle of attacking the Xiongnu in the north, and the general Meng Tian led 300,000 troops to recover Henan.
After the death of Qin, the Xiongnu in Mobei took the opportunity to go south and reoccupied Henan, the Xiongnu continued to invade the border counties of the Han Dynasty, and in the sixth year of Gaozu of the Han Dynasty, Han ** surrendered to the Xiongnu. In the following year, Liu Bang personally led his troops to conquest, but was besieged by more than 300,000 cavalry of the Xiongnu in Baideng for seven days and nights, and could not come out. Later, thanks to Chen Ping's strategy, he was able to get out of danger by bribing the Yan family who was pretending to be single. And this move also created a precedent for the humiliation and affinity between the Han and the Xiongnu, which has lasted for more than 70 years.
Gaoque City can be called a strong pass, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and there is a situation where there is a husband and a man who cannot open it. If Wei Qing hadn't come suddenly yesterday, he would not have been able to launch a surprise attack with an army of 30,000 while the defenders were unprepared. After the hussar battalion entered Gaoque, the Han army of Gaoque reached 40,000 people, like a sharp knife, inserted into the land of Henan and the desert.
"The Huns of Henan Aries King and Lou Fu King have less than 20,000 troops, there is almost no war in Henan for seventy or eighty years, and the soldiers are far from being called elite, you and I have an army of 40,000 people, and it is not difficult to occupy Henan in one fell swoop. What we need to plan now is how to enter the army in order to minimize the cost to pay. After Wei Qing welcomed Qin Cheng into the house, before he rested, he went straight to the map, and Wei Qing said to Qin Cheng.
Qin Cheng already knew the situation in Henan, because he knew that this would definitely be the first base that Liu Che would occupy to counterattack the Xiongnu. Gain Henan, hold the Gaoque Pass, you can make the Xiongnu have 100,000 troops and have to look at the pass to sigh, and the geographical location of Henan protruding, high-quality resources will make it able to become the front line of the Han counterattack against the Xiongnu.
"Brother Wei, don't sell it, I believe you already have a plan." Qin Cheng looked at the Henan land on the map, as if he saw the fat at the corner of his mouth, his eyes were hot and greedy, but his mind was very clear, he continued: "How to capture Henan is not difficult for you and me, but this time you and I are from the desert to the south, although the action suddenly achieved the effect of confusing the enemy, and was able to successfully take Gaoque, but after the Hun army reacted, it will definitely move south." At present, how to ensure that the backyard does not catch fire is the most important. ”
"Gaoque Pass is a Xiongguan, we only need to leave 5,000 strong soldiers here, to wait for work, even if tens of thousands of Xiongnu troops knock on the pass, there is no problem to hold on for more than half a month. And as long as the war in Henan goes well, it won't take ten days for your army to return to help, which is not a problem. Wei Qing subconsciously answered, and only then did he realize that something was wrong, he knew that Qin Cheng would never think of such a simple truth, so what Qin Cheng said should mean something else. After thinking about it for a while, Wei Qing already thought about it in his heart, "Brother Qin means that the Hun army will not knock head-on?" ”
Qin Cheng nodded in affirmation: "The Xiongnu know that Gaoque is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it can't be delayed for too long to rescue Henan, so they have to prevent them from finding another way." ”
Wei Qing frowned and pondered for a moment, "The Great Wall is thousands of miles, and it is inevitable that there will be gaps. ”
"If there is a high and strong pass, there must be a low wall and weak soil." Qin Cheng said leisurely.
"There are many military outposts in the border counties."
"Thousands of miles of running, only fast and not broken."
Wei Qing raised his head suddenly, his eyes were bright, and he stretched out his hand to draw a few lines on the map, "Break through the weak pass, walk along the Great Wall, day and night, you can bypass Gaoque, go straight to Henan, and attack from behind when our army is fighting with the Aries King!" ”
"Previously, your and my army were active in the desert, and the closest main force of the Huns was Princess Yixue's snow wolf, which was located hundreds of miles northeast of Gaoque. If her army received the report of the battle from Gao Que and decided to come to the rescue, it would only take two days to get here if she walked faster. Qin Cheng stretched out his index finger and nodded at a position on the map to make an analysis.
Wei Qing stared solemnly at the map in front of him, and suddenly turned his head to Qin Cheng and smiled: "Since Brother Qin has analyzed the situation so thoroughly, there must be a countermeasure, right?" ”
Qin Cheng laughed repeatedly, of course he wouldn't tell Wei Qing, in fact, the reason why he was able to predict that the Xiongnu army might march along the Great Wall and use the Great Wall to cover its whereabouts was because he knew that in that history he was familiar with, Wei Qing had done such a thing, and it was the time to attack Gaoque.
Seeing Wei Qing ask, Qin Cheng smiled confidently: "It's still the same sentence as Fang Cai, running thousands of miles, only fast and not broken." In fact, he wanted to say that martial arts in the world are only fast and unbreakable, although this sentence is very nonsense, because if the fist is not strong enough, no matter how fast it is, it is scum, but it is very suitable for the current Han army.
Wei Qing understood what Qin Cheng meant, and agreed: "The hussar battalion has been running for a long time and is very tired, so let the brothers of the hussar battalion rest for a while, and then we will start later." ”
Qin Cheng waved his hand and said highly: "The soldiers are fast, if the hussar battalion can't even stand this tiredness, what will the Huns destroy?" It's Brother Wei, your department, you have just captured Gaoque City, do you need to take a break? ”
"Haha!" Wei Qing laughed heartily, "Since this is the case, then you and I will divide into two ways, I will go to Longxian, you go to Longdong, and encircle the Aries King and the Loufu King!" ”
"At that time, all the Xiongnu in Henan will be annihilated in one fell swoop." Qin Cheng's fingers were a little heavier on the map.
......
In the hinterland of Heshuo, the king of Aries has a tent.
The huge royal tent was extremely richly decorated, a tiger skin with residual heat hung on the wooden pole outside the tent, waving in the wind under the bright sky, and the eyeless eyes were only two black holes, numb and lifeless, coldly responding to the awe-inspiring gaze of passers-by.
The singing and dancing in the king's tent was leveled, and the naked Hun woman writhed her slender ***, dancing in the music, and the exposed navel shook non-stop, like the fat-buttocks eyes, throwing flattery to the surrounding Hun ministers and the first Aries King and the guest Lou Fu King, there was an indescribable temptation.
The Hun ministers present were staggered, their mouths full of beef and mutton oil stains, talking and laughing loudly, looking at the dancing girls in the tent with eyes that could not hide their flesh-desire.
"Aries King, I heard that this white tiger you hunted this time is very fierce and abnormal, and it injured several warriors in a row, but in the end, it was pierced through the throat by you with an arrow, which is really powerful! Come, this king respects you! The pot-bellied King Lou Fu smiled and toasted to the meaty Aries King, and that happy look would make people suspect that the white tiger was hunted by him.
"Haha, it's a trifle. No matter how fierce a beast is, it is only a beast, where can it be a man's opponent? The Aries King's compliment to the King of Lou Fu was very useful, and he laughed loudly, looking very proud.
In fact, shooting beasts with an arrow through the eyes is the real ability, so as to ensure that the animal skin is not injured, and the rest are floating clouds, but the happy Aries King obviously will not care about these.
"The king of Aries bravely runs through the river, no one here is invincible, this king admires!" King Lou Fu put down the wine bowl, but his eyes drifted to the woman dancing in the tent.
Unexpectedly, the Aries King was not very happy when he heard the words of King Lou Fu, snorted coldly, and said with some dissatisfaction: "If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't go out in this Henan land, wouldn't this king just be brave to cross the river?" Looking at the entire Great Huns, there are few who have the ability to compete with this king! ”
"That's, that's, this king naturally believes it!" Lou Fu Wang laughed dryly.
The Aries King seemed to be mentioned as if he was troubled, drank a bowl of wine sullenly, and complained: "I heard that in the past few years, the Great Huns and the Han people have lost many battles and won less, and Chahardi has also been taken away, what a wretch!" Could it be that those turtle grandchildren in the desert are all rice buckets? was bullied by the Han people to this extent? The face of the Kunlun God has been lost by them! If my Heshuo warriors can attack the Han army, why is this so? ”
"Aries King, be cautious, be cautious!" When King Lou Fu heard this, he was nervous, looked left and right uneasily, and when he turned around, he saw that the Aries King was just drinking indignantly, sighed, and said: "You and I are not Da Shan Yu's cronies, how can you and I have a share in such a thing?" This was the case with the military ministers before, and now that Yi Zhixian has succeeded to the throne, the same is true. It can't be changed. Rather than being indignant, it is better to be content. Besides, there is nothing wrong with this Heshuo except that he can't fight and become famous. The pastures are fertile and the women are charming, but it is a good place to enjoy. It's the desert, and there's no comfort in our life here. ”
"So what?" The Aries King became more and more upset by the words of the King of Lou, and said in a rough voice: "The good horses and sheep you and I raised have all paid tribute to the royal court, how much can you stay?" I said, King Lou, why don't you have any ambition at all? Just want to have fun! That Chang'an is close at hand, as long as the big order is under an order, this king will be able to capture the emperor of the Han people in a few days, seize the Han people's country, and enjoy the wealth of the Han people! Where do you need them to fight so hard in those places in Upper Valley?! ”
King Lou smiled and picked up the wine bowl and said, "What's wrong with having fun?" Comfortable. ”
"Nest!" The Aries King scolded, paused, and said indignantly: "If there is a chance for this king to touch the Han army, this king will have to kill him and let them know what the real Great Hun warriors are!" ”
With that, he picked up the wine bowl and drank it all.
"Report!" At this moment, a sergeant broke into the big tent without a report and knocked the dancing woman in the tent to the ground.
"Daring, who let you in?!" The king of Aries was depressed, and when he saw this sergeant, he immediately threw fire on him, "Drag it out and give him fifty lashes!" ”
"Newspaper, my lord! The Han army, the Han army has captured Gaoque, and it has already led a large army to fight over! The sergeant hurriedly knelt down and said loudly.
"What?!" The Aries King and the Lou Fu King were both shocked, and the previous arrogance of the Aries King disappeared in an instant.
40,000 Han riders, although they are still thousands of miles away, have already shocked Henan Aries with a move.
