The Qin army rode suddenly for a whole day to chase and kill the fleeing Xiongnu iron cavalry, chasing and killing while taking prisoners, and arranging personnel to escort them while captive. Ye Tong and Mu Guiying are like this, how many Hun iron horsemen were captured, I don't know, I can't guess, there are too many prisoners, and there are also too many Hun iron horsemen who escaped.

After dark, the cavalry basically returned to the Yumen Gate, and the logistics support troops in the city prepared the meal early, waiting for the cavalry to return.

After Ye Tong came back, he took out a large amount of wine as soon as possible, so that his soldiers could have a good drink and have fun. In particular, the musketeers and soldiers were really hard, fighting bloody battles for eight consecutive days, and six of them were fought day and night, both mentally and physically exhausted.

The next day, the staff officers of the army counted the results of the battle, directly killed nearly 170,000 Hun iron cavalry, captured less than 50,000 Xiongnu iron cavalry, and escaped about 70,000 Xiongnu iron cavalry.

Of the 70,000 Hun iron horsemen who escaped, there should not be many who can really escape back to the grassland. After all, tens of thousands of Huns fled into the desert and wanted to cross the desert.

Difficult! It's too hard! It's so difficult!

Ye Tong guessed that the tens of thousands of Hun iron horsemen who fled into the desert had no supplies, no water, and no sense of direction, and the number of Hun iron horsemen who could get out of the desert alive would not exceed one percent.

That is to say, in the Battle of Yumen Pass, the Xiongnu iron cavalry returned to the grassland with a maximum of 30,000 cavalry.

The losses of the Qin army were not too great, after all, the musketeers had been hiding in the trenches, and the attacking Hun cavalry could not threaten them. Only a few dozen people were sacrificed, and half of them were caused by their own grenade throwing mistakes, resulting in casualties, and not many were really shot by the Huns.

Millions of sheep, thousands of cattle, nearly 100,000 horses, 50,000 intact horses, and the rest were wounded, but all of them could be treated. After being cured, it is not a big problem to use it for pulling carts and plowing fields.

There are too many other materials and too many miscellaneous materials, and with dozens of staff officers, it is impossible to count them in a short period of time. There was a mess of gold, silver, copper coins, jewelry, jade, herbs, skins, and so on.

The assault cavalry suffered a bit of a loss, with tens of thousands wounded, hundreds of people seriously injured and killed, and the rest were slightly injured. This is mainly due to the good timing, the Hun iron cavalry was frightened by the huge explosion of the grenade and the scene, and suddenly disrupted the formation, allowing the Qin army to pick up the cheap.

If it weren't for the use of grenades, which caused psychological fear and fear to the Hun iron cavalry, the heavy cavalry and assault cavalry would definitely have a high price if they wanted to win, and it would be good to survive half of them. After all, the opponent's superiority in forces is too great, several times.

Ye Tong shook his head and smiled bitterly after hearing this, the grassland people went on an expedition, and the supply was cattle and sheep, cattle were used to pull carts, and sheep were grain. Therefore, it is not surprising that 300,000 Hun iron horsemen brought millions of sheep with the army.

Millions of sheep became the trophies of the Qin army, some of which were definitely kept to be raised, and some of which were sold to merchants.

Ye Tong told the staff officer of the army: "Transmit the battle situation to Xu Cheng with Xinying, and let her report it in the "Focus" and "Imperial Daily", and be sure to publicize the heroic deeds of the soldiers." ”

"Yes!"

After the Battle of Yumen Pass, Ye Tong rested at Yumen Pass for three days, allowing his musketeers, assault cavalry, and heavy cavalry to recover their strength.

Especially the heavy cavalry, don't look at the fierce battle for forty minutes, the effect is indelible. It was the heavy cavalry that unscrupulously collided with the Hun iron cavalry and directly tore apart the Hun iron cavalry battle array, so that the turquoise cavalry had the opportunity to defeat the extremely powerful 200,000 Xiongnu iron cavalry in one fell swoop.

In two years, Ye Tong only set up 2,000 heavy rides, and no matter how many Ye Tong can't afford to play, there is no money! Heavy riding costs too much money, 1,000 heavy cavalry, you can form 20,000 assault cavalry, it is too expensive, only dare to engage in 2,000 heavy cavalry.

This time, Ye Tong brought a thousand heavy horses, and the remaining one thousand heavy horses, five hundred heavy horses were transferred to Han Xin's command to listen to the order, and the five hundred heavy horses were handed over to Hua Mulan for command. Heavy cavalry can only be used as a strategic force, and can only be used at critical times to change the tide of battle in one fell swoop.

Ye Tong wanted to leave Yumen Pass, leaving 5,000 musketeers for Jiang Song, and taking away the original 5,000 infantry, which was still 20,000 soldiers and horses. The combat effectiveness is different, and the combat ability shown by the musketeers has been recognized by Jiang Song and Mu Guiying.

Before the temporary, Ye Tong called Xiao Hanxin and said: "Little Hanxin, although you are a relative of General Han, this general will not focus on it, and you can only see Caixia after the wind and rain, and if you don't sharpen it, you will never become a famous general."

There are two options, one is to return to the Central Plains with General Ben; The second is to stay at Yumen Pass. General Ben doesn't lie to you, stay in Yumen Pass, wars often happen, and the turquoise cavalry often goes out to hunt and fight the autumn wind, there are many opportunities, and the promotion speed is definitely fast.

However, it is very dangerous and faces death at any time. You choose for yourself, General Ben does not interfere, the road is your own, you must choose for yourself. ”

After a while, Xiao Hanxin said in a firm tone: "My lord, the last general is willing to stay and assist General Jiang Song in garrisoning Yumen Pass." ”

"Good! General Ben is not mistaken, he is indeed a true man, bloody, and dares to face difficulties, and General Ben likes such people. ”

"Thank you for the cultivation!"

"Jiang Song, take care of Xiao Hanxin, the two of you usually exchange more experiences in the art of war, which is good for both of you."

"Yes!"

After explaining the affairs, Ye Tong did not delay, took Mu Guiying and Qi Xin, and led 20,000 soldiers and horses to the Yanmen Pass in the north.

There's no way!

Peng Yue and Cheng Yu sent a letter to tell Ye Tong that Mao Dun, the overlord on the northern prairie, led hundreds of thousands of iron horsemen to kill Yanmen Pass.

After Ye Tong received the information, he knew in his heart that this time the battle of Yumen should be arranged by Mao Dun. Ordinary people really can't organize 300,000 Hun iron cavalry, only the grassland overlord Mao Dun has that ability.

Pengcheng:

Xiang Yu's official residence, Xiang Yu, Fan Zeng, Wu She, Long Ji, Ji Bu and others have been studying and analyzing military strategy. According to Fan Zeng, after the wheat harvest is over, Ye Tong will definitely use troops, and the target is likely to be the area north of the Yellow River, the core area of the Central Plains, and Ye Tong should be placed in the last place to recover.

I have to say that Fan Zeng's guess is correct, Ye Tong has studied it with Zhang Liang, Wei Yi, Cheng Yu, Chen Ping, Bai Lixin, Xiao He, Cao Shen, Li Shiqi and others.

Everyone felt that the area north of the Yellow River would be easy to recover, but after the recovery, it would face the invasion of the Xiongnu iron cavalry on the northern grasslands. Once the area north of the Yellow River was recovered, soldiers and horses must be stationed in Daijun and other areas to strictly prevent the invasion of the Xiongnu iron cavalry.

The thought in Ye Tong's heart was that it would be easier to destroy Xiang Yu first, and then deal with the other princes. The problem is that Xiang Yu's territory crosses the two banks of the Yangtze River, and if Xiang Yu wants to be eliminated, the two banks of the Yangtze River must be launched at the same time, in that case, Ye Tong will not have enough troops in terms of troops.

In addition, the five generals under Xiang Yu are very capable of fighting, and their morale is very high. Xiang Yu's reputation is loud, and the morale brought by him is high and normal. The Qin army had the advantage in weapons, but he didn't want to fight with Xiang Yu too early.

Ye Tong has no choice, the soldiers and horses under his command are too expensive, unlike the soldiers and horses of the princes, you can become a soldier if you give some food. Ye Tong relied on the system to exchange, and the price was too high. There have been few local recruits, accounting for only about 20 percent. One is the lack of population in the Qin Empire; The second is the issue of quality.

Xiang Yu summoned everyone to study, and the lord asked to see if there was any advantage to take advantage of. After all, once Ye Tong sent troops to the area north of the Yellow River, Luoyang, Hengshan County, and Nanjun would be empty.

Fan Zeng shook his head and said, "Han Xin's 50,000 soldiers and horses are stationed in Hengshan County, so it's not easy to start. In addition, the Yangtze River is the world of the Qin army, and when our Chu army attacks, it will not take much advantage, and it will be a confrontation if it is not. ”

At this moment, the guards came in and reported, "Overlord, Han Cheng sent someone to ask for help?" ”

What!

Xiang Yu, Fan Zeng and the others felt strange after hearing this, who would beat Han Cheng at this time?

Ye Tong? It shouldn't be! After defeating Han Cheng, the Qin army bordered the Chu army, and Ye Tong would not do such a thing.

After inviting Han Cheng's messenger in and asking about it, Xiang Yu and Fan Zeng learned that the Qin army Hua Mulan led 50,000 soldiers and horses to advance towards the Tiger Prison Pass, and should have been stationed in the Tiger Prison Pass at this time.

Han Cheng got the news that it was the Qin army's 50,000 troops who were killed, and he was so scared that he couldn't even think about it, so he immediately sent someone to Pengcheng to find Xiang Yu and ask Xiang Yu for help. Relying on Han Cheng alone, he couldn't resist the Qin army at all, Han Cheng knew this in his heart.

Zhong Liwu didn't know who Mulan was, and it sounded like a woman. I was puzzled all of a sudden, is there any thing about a woman leading soldiers and horses to battle?

"Overlord, who is Mulan? Haven't heard of this person, is it a man or a woman? ”

Fan Zeng shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Hua Mulan is a very effective general under Ye Tong, and the three regions of Xianyang, Luoyang, and Pingyang in Guanzhong have all been recovered by him.

This person used his troops as fast as lightning, and after taking Xianyang City, he continued to advance non-stop, taking Qin Pass and Wuban in one fell swoop, so that the defense system of the Qin army was perfect.

In the end, he took Pingyang and Luoyang, and then took Jiguan and Tiger Prison into his hands, and he was a discerning and powerful general. Oh! I forgot to say that Hua Mulan is a female general, and only Ye Tong's subordinates dare to play like that. ”

Wu Shi suggested: "Han Cheng should not be in danger, it is Ye Tong's suspicious plan." The purpose was to intimidate Han Cheng and make him not move. ”

Fan Zeng nodded and said, "Doctor Wu is right, this is very likely. Ye Tong used troops north of the Yellow River, worried that Han Cheng would disturb him, so he sent Hua Mulan, who could fight, to garrison the tiger prison. On the one hand, he was staring at Han Cheng, and on the other hand, he could do it if he had the chance. ”

Regarding the reinforcement of Han Cheng, Xiang Yu really wanted reinforcements in his heart, worried that once Han Cheng was taken by Ye Tong, the situation of the Chu army would not be very good, and there would be no depth of defense. To put it mildly, Han Chengcheng is the depth of defense of the Chu army, so that the flames of war burn in the territory of Han Cheng and cannot spread to the jurisdiction of the Chu army.

Before discussing whether to reinforce Han Cheng, the guards came in again and reported, "Overlord, the information sent by Yingbu. ”

Xiang Yu took it in his hand, his face changed greatly after inspecting it, he handed over the information to Fan Zeng, and said in confusion: "What does the Qin army mean by blocking the Yangtze River?" Could it be that Ye Tong wants to do something to Chu Jun? ”

After reading the information, Fan Zeng shook his head and said: "The Qin army's warships blockaded the Yangtze River, not to attack Yingbu, but to attack Jiangdong. Our Chu army is basically concentrated in the Pengcheng area, Jiangdong troops are empty, once the Yangtze River is blocked, we will not be able to reinforce. ”
