With these sabers, Zhang Yue returned to Chang'an, and then selected 1,500 people from the Changshui Captain, the Flying Fox Army, the Captain of Wuheng, and the Wuheng and Xiongnu Righteous Servants.

The selection criteria are simple.

He is more than seven feet three inches tall, weighs no less than 300 Han Jin (about 150 Jin), can open a four-stone bow, and has superb riding skills.

Because it's simple, it's harsh.

After selecting the whole army, more than 1,000 people were singled out, and in the end, they had to expand the scope to the righteous side, and they barely managed to get enough people.

After choosing a good person, Zhang Yue reorganized this army.

Here he played a sideshow, raised the slogan of 'retro', and named the formation of this unit 'brigade'.

Called the Eagle Yang Brigade, the brigade consists of three regiments.

Each regiment has five combat teams, each with 100 cavalry.

Each team consisted of twenty combat detachments, which were still in groups.

However, the middle of the decade was removed, which was in line with the law of development in the cavalry era.

This combat organization was the result of the infantry era, and in the cavalry era, rapid reaction and group assault became especially important.

Even the organization seems a little redundant, and even more bloated.

After the abolition of this organizational structure, each corps will be directly commanded by the team commander, who will be responsible to the regimental commander, and the regimental commander will be directly connected with the brigade commander.

As a result, a simple, fast, effective, and three-dimensional combat system with three-dimensional communication has been formed.

Of course, Zhang Yue still reported this matter to the Son of Heaven and got the permission of the Son of Heaven.

After the formation of the Yingyang Brigade, Zhang Yue immediately began to organize the training of this unit, and personally served as the brigade commander of the Yingyang Brigade, and selected three young adjutants from the Northern Army to assist.

All three of them are rising stars in the Northern Army.

They are from the three captains of Shotsheng, Huben, and Qimen, each with their own expertise.

For example, Guo Wan, who is a captain of the shooting sound, is a training expert, and he has served as the captain of the shooting sound for more than ten years, and has trained several batches of elites.

The captain of the tiger school, Cheng Yang Ye, is an expert in cavalry warfare, has rich battlefield experience, has participated in the battle of Tianshan and the battle of Yuwushui, and is very familiar with the geography of the Western Regions and Mobei.

The last captain of the gate, Sima Han Weiyang, was the younger brother of the late Han Yannian, the governor of Han Jiuquan.

It was Han Yannian, the lieutenant of Li Ling who died in the depths of Junji Mountain.

With the assistance of these three people, Zhang Yue began to carefully train this new army in the barracks.

The main thing is to train them to fight with sabers.

From individual soldiers to squads, to team coordination.

I practice every day to get acquainted with the use of the saber as soon as possible.

On the other hand, under the pretext of 'drill', Zhang Yue transferred the cavalry of Captain Changshui and the Flying Fox Army to the north.

In four days, the two cavalry were moved from Chang'an to the Longxi area.

…………………………………………

It's late August.

The temperature in the Western Regions is dropping day by day, and soon, people need to put on thick leather jackets to keep their bodies warm.

After ten days of arduous trekking, Wang Mang finally arrived at Yumen Pass with his troops.

Under the towering pass, the ancient road is long.

Countless people crowded the roads with deer carts and ox carts.

And there is more and more intelligence and information about the front line.

"Your Excellency, this is the movement of the second division that we have just collected!" Chang Hui handed a booklet bound on white paper to Wang Mang.

"It's hard work!" Wang Mang nodded and said to Chang Hui: "When I return to the dynasty after success, I will recommend Your Excellency to Your Majesty!" ”

In the past few days, Wang Mang has taken these people recommended by Zhang Yue to trek all the way and contact places all the way.

With their assistance, Wang Mang was able to quickly rush in the direction of Yumen, while gathering the power of the local government of the four counties of Hexi, and at the same time collecting all kinds of information.

I have a clear understanding of the abilities and talents of these people.

Not to mention the side, this Chang Hui alone is the talent of the general!

Wang Mang couldn't help but love talents and wanted to take them for his own use.

Chang Hui was flattered, and said: "All protect and love, and the last general will not dare to be ashamed!" ”

Wang Mang smiled and looked at the words recorded on the booklet sent by the latter.

After reading it, Wang Mang sighed and said, "Our second-division general, after all, the pattern is still insufficient!" ”

What is mentioned in the book is the current movement of the army of the second division general that Chang Hui and others inquired about.

If what he said above is true, then Wang Mang really looks down on the second division general.

According to what it said, after the imperial envoy arrived in Hexi and conveyed the edict and meaning of the Son of Heaven to Li Guangli, the latter immediately accepted the edict with trepidation, and said with tears in his eyes: "The ministers are respectful of the edict and dare not disobey it!" ”

Therefore, he ordered to gather the army, and set up a camp in the Heqiu area north of Loulan, and stopped the march, saying that he was waiting for the 'Son of Heaven to come'.

This is to be frightened by the reprimand in the edict of the Son of Heaven.

However, Li Guangli stopped, and the army had been in Loulan for several days.

As a result, rumors spread throughout the army, and the morale of the army was shaken.

Among the people and local county soldiers who were responsible for transporting supplies, there was a saying that 'Your Majesty wants to ask the general for the crime because of the loss of the second division'.

In Wang Mang's eyes, Li Guangli is simply dying!

Of course, on the surface, he didn't dare to say it directly, so he could only cover it up with a euphemistic criticism of 'insufficient pattern'.

In fact, Wang Mang knew that Li Guangli was frightened by the edict of the Son of Heaven?

He's giving himself a dismount!

I want to use a large army to intimidate myself, the protector of the Western Regions, the envoy of the Son of Heaven.

In the hope that for the sake of the overall situation, he would have to back down and cede power.

In the final analysis, Li Guangli is just thinking about himself.

He was still thinking about it, wanting to take credit for himself.

It's a pity......

Wang Mang shook his head and instructed Chang Hui: "Get ready, fight the honor guard, let's enter the city and take over the Jade Gate!" ”

The Son of Heaven sent him to supervise Li Guangli.

It was to prevent Li Guangli from going alone.

Controlling the Jade Gate is crucial in this process!

……………………………………

At the northern foot of the Tianshan Mountains, the capital of the king of Qiuzi is Yancheng.

The grand celebration banquet has lasted for several days.

The Huns vied with each other, and wine and beef and mutton were available everywhere as if they didn't need money, and they were allowed to be used by the Hun soldiers.

And in the royal palace, the sages are even more complacent.

Since the capture of Luntai, he immediately sent people to Mobei to publicize this matter.

Feedback has now been received.

Among the four major clans, the Subu clan and the Huyan clan have already sent their clans to congratulate him on the way here.

This means that two of the four major clans in Mobei have already fallen to him.

And within the Twin Clan, wavers abound.

The Huns are like this, whoever is strong will follow whomever they want.

At the beginning, Yin Zhi was oblique and single, and this is how he got to the top.

Now, he can also copy Yin Zhi's path of slanting Danyu!

Now, the only obstacle is when Fox Lugu died.

Thinking of this, the sages couldn't help frowning.

According to the information he had, Hulugu's physical condition seemed to have improved a lot in the past month or so.

That's not going to work!

This winter, the fox deer girl must die!

He didn't want to wait until next year, after all, there were many dreams at night!

"Tu Lu!" A nobleman came over, knelt down and bowed: "The Outuo cavalry has just sent back information that the Han people's second division general has stationed its main force north of Loulan, south of Duanshui, and has not ......moved so far."

Hearing this, the sages laughed, and said, "It seems that the prestige of King Jiankun has frightened this second-division general!" ”

And all the people in the temple laughed when they heard this.

Because of the information asymmetry between the Han and the Hungarians, the Xiongnu side still did not know that after the Han family fell to Luntai, they quickly sent an envoy to reprimand Li Guangli and ordered Li Guangli to shrink his troops.

Therefore, in the eyes of the Huns, this was their own capture of Luntai, which frightened the Han people and made them dare not march.

Even if the higher-ups know in their hearts, this may not be the case.

But it doesn't prevent them from taking this out and bragging.

After all, the herdsmen and samurai of the lower classes still eat this set very much.

"Tu Hao, now that the Han people are afraid of our army, can we withdraw our troops?" Someone stood up and asked.

It's almost September.

The harsh winter in the Western Regions is coming soon.

Especially at the northern foot of the Tianshan Mountains, heavy snow will fall within a month.

If you don't retreat, everyone will be frozen.

The sage shook his head and said, "You can't withdraw yet!" ”

If it is withdrawn now, it is equivalent to giving up the entire northern foot of the Tianshan Mountains to the Han people, and with the infrastructure capacity of the Han people, by the spring of next year, Luntai City will appear in front of the Huns as it is.

This is unacceptable to the current sages.

After the capture of Luntai, the sage's appetite suddenly grew.

He hoped that he could wrestle with the Han people here.

Preferably, it is possible to take advantage of, or even eliminate a field elite of the Han Dynasty, and use their heads to lay the foundation for their own authority.

And then took advantage of this big victory and became the Xiongnu Shan Yu.

Besides, if the Han people come over, it is not something that can be solved by retreating.

There has to be a fight here for the problem to be solved.

The sage stood up, looked at his nobles, and said, "Now, the morale of our army is strong, how can we retreat?" Isn't that self-depravity? ”

"The cold winter is certainly not good for our army, but for the Han people, I am afraid it is even more unfavorable!"

"Han people, how can I have my Hun warriors to withstand the cold?" Speaking of this, the sages raised their heads proudly.

When it comes to frost resistance, the Huns are definitely entitled to despise others.

When I was in Mobei, the temperature in winter was more than ten or twenty degrees below zero.

That's it, the Huns still survived tenaciously.

And what about the Han Chinese?

Have they ever seen such weather?

Do they have the ability to fight in the cold?

The sages didn't think that the Han people had such ability!

He even prayed in his heart that winter would come a little sooner!

In this way, maybe with the help of winter, he can achieve an unprecedented victory at the foot of this Tianshan Mountain!
