Chapter 206: The Destruction Plan Begins to Bear Fruit
Before Ye Tong's orders were issued, he received information from Jiang Song of Yumen Pass, that a large number of Xiongnu iron cavalry were gathering, and the target was Yumen Pass, and the scale was estimated to be around 400,000.
After handing the information to Zhang Liang, Chen Ping, Fan Zeng, and Cheng Yu, they couldn't help but glance at each other, as expected, Mao Dun felt that this time he was making a big determination to prepare for a decisive battle with the Qin Empire.
Cheng Yu said puzzledly: "General, will the Huns carry out a sneak attack from the desert?" ”
Ye Tong was slightly stunned!
It is true that this possibility was not considered, because it was too difficult to cross the desert, and no one dared to play it in general. The problem is that wars are often unexpected and anything happens.
Zhang Liang thought for a moment, nodded and said, "Lord, what Zhongde said is true. The Huns, knowing the difficulty of a frontal attack, would certainly take the risk and send a detachment of troops and horses across the desert. Even if the losses are heavy, only tens of thousands of iron horsemen need to cross the desert, for Yumen Pass, the situation is serious, and it is necessary to strengthen the patrol of the desert border area, and once discovered, immediately send troops and horses to solve it. ”
"Mr. Fan, this matter depends on you, tomorrow Mr. Fan will set off with troops and horses, and this general will notify Jiang Song in advance with the letter eagle, and let Jiang Song send a large number of patrols to carry out a carpet search in the desert border area."
"Lord, don't worry! We are prepared, even if there are tens of thousands of Huns riding through the desert, as soon as we find it, we will annihilate it in one fell swoop while they are weak.
He was not worried about the harm of the Huns crossing the desert to Yumen Pass and Yangguan, but was worried that the heavy industrial park would suffer heavy losses once it was harassed by the Hun iron cavalry crossing the desert. ”
What Fan Zeng said is true, the Huns will not send many iron horsemen across the desert, breaking through the sky with 100,000 iron horsemen, or even less. After all, it was too difficult to cross the desert, and the Huns knew in their hearts that they could only use surprise troops, and it was impossible to form a large-scale battle.
Crossing the desert, the Huns could not afford to lose either.
Zhang Liang suggested: "My lord, the soldiers who reinforce Yumen Pass will be transported directly by train, and two months ago, the railway from Chang'an to Yumen Pass has been opened. ”
Oh!
"The railway is open, then use it! Contact the person in charge of the railway and ask him to open a special train to transport soldiers, supplies and other supplies for the Qin army. ”
The herald replied, "Yes!" ”
Ye Tong shook his head, hundreds of thousands of civilized school students are repairing railways, can the speed not be fast?
After everyone left, Ye Tong rushed back to Dingjun Mountain at night to carry ammunition to Dingjun Mountain, rifle bullets can only be produced in Dingjun Mountain, and the production line in Chang'an Industrial Park is being installed.
A few days later, Ye Tong returned to Chang'an City with 30,000 soldiers and horses, entered the base camp of the military pavilion, and 30,000 soldiers and horses were stationed with other soldiers and horses.
Seeing Long Ji, Ye Tong was surprised, the kid had only mixed with the battalion commander now, and asked puzzledly: "Long Ji, your kid is the first general under Xiang Yu, how did you get mixed with the battalion commander for so long?" ”
"That, general, there is no war, and it is too difficult to be promoted. However, the lowly post heard that he was about to go on an expedition, and the lowly post would soon be promoted to brigade commander. ”
"Go for it! General Ben has been looking forward to your promotion and hopes that you will become a corps commander soon. ”
"General, you must work hard!"
"Yingbu, you have only been promoted to the head of the regiment, so you haven't messed around!"
Yingbu, one of the three generals in the early Han Dynasty, was promoted a little faster than Long. However, it seems that other Ji Bu, Zhong Liwu, Xiang Zhuang and others were only promoted to battalion commanders, and some were mixed with company commanders.
"General, as Long Ji said, it is really difficult to be promoted without war!"
Hehe!
"Don't worry! Tomorrow, go to Yanmen Pass, and fight a decisive battle with the million iron cavalry of Maoton, you will fight, don't drop the chain when the time comes! ”
"Lord, don't worry! Others dare not say it, and they are the first to cut off Mao Dun's head and use it as a urinal for the general. Zhong Liwu replied.
"Report to the general, has you finally been promoted to the rank of corps commander?"
Ye Tong turned his head and saw that it was Peng Yue. The old boy was one of the earliest people with Ye Tong, and his experience points were enough, but he couldn't be promoted, and in the end, he was in a hurry and took the initiative to ask for a military study.
Hehe!
"Yes, you are the seventh person in the Qin Emperor's army to be promoted to a legion?"
Yes!
"Lord, why is it only the seventh, who is promoted before the lowly position?"
"Lin Xiao and Zhou Yu of the Navy were both successfully promoted to corps commanders a month ago. If you are the fifth person to be promoted in the army, you will form the fifth army and you will be the commander-in-chief. ”
"Yes!"
Everyone is not envious, Peng Yue followed Ye Tong to fight in the south and the north, and he made many meritorious achievements, but he has also been stuck and has not been promoted.
Zhang Han is the same, he has made countless achievements, but he was not promoted, and when he saw the outbreak of the war, he also looked forward to being promoted through a big war. During this time, Zhang Han was reading military books at night, and he didn't dare to mix anymore, Peng Yue was a role model.
Ye Tong can't do it, the system can instill knowledge, as long as the experience points are enough, he can be promoted immediately. Locals have to work their own, and not only do they need experience points, but they also have to learn the art of war.
Seeing the difficulty of promotion in the Qin Emperor's army, some of Xiang Yu's generals had already taken another path, leaving the army to take up local posts or do other jobs.
During the Xiangyuzi period, he was arranged by Ye Tong to manage the enterprise; Li Ji, Chen Wu, Zhou Yin and others entered the Criminal Department, some went to local areas, and some went to other departments.
The arrangements are good, and there is only such a wave of people in the army who can fight. Only Cao Wuxian, who surrendered to Chengcheng in Xianyang City, was promoted to regiment commander after many years, and how many other people surrendered to Cheng with Cao Wuxian, and they were still mixed at the battalion commander level?
It's not fair?
At the beginning, Long Yu and the others also felt unfair, but fortunately, Zhou Yu had just been rewarded, and he also started from a small soldier, staying in a barracks with Long Ji, Yingbu and others, it was also training, and Zhou Yu's promotion speed was so fast that the generals under Xiang Yu were dumbfounded!
There was no way, he also led a group to fight, and several people were swept by Zhou Yu. Long Ji, Yingbu and others have nothing to say, they also work together as small soldiers, and their promotion is the training results of leading soldiers in training, and they can't accept it.
Later, Long Ji, Yingbu, Zhong Liwu and others, after hearing about Zhou Bo, Peng Yue, Zhang Han and others, closed their mouths directly.
Peng Yue, Zhang Han, Zhou Bo and others know the situation, their abilities are good, those who can fight, those people have made so many feats, and they are also stuck, what else can they say, hurry up and brush up on experience points!
The next day, Ye Tong led an army of 100,000 to the north to reinforce Yanmen Pass. All the generals under Xiang Yu went out with him, plus one Peng Yue.
Camping and resting at night, Ye Tong met an old acquaintance, Ye Tong asked puzzledly: "Mengtian, when did your kid come back, why didn't you come to the general's mansion?" ”
"That, general, after the emperor was harmed by the Huns, the Mongolian family had no object of allegiance, so Meng Yu proposed to revise the clan rules and change allegiance to the emperor into allegiance to the country and the Yanhuang nation. That, Meng Yu was also in the army, but he was a soldier under General Mu. ”
Ye Tong was relieved that the Montessori could modify the rules of the clan, which was good for the Montessori, and they could not be bound by the rules of the ancestors.
When he heard that the revised clan rules were allegiance to the country and the Yanhuang nation, Ye Tong smiled. In Ye Tong's heart, the Mengshi family is placed in an important position, and the country needs such a family.
"Mengtian, don't you have a military position? How can you start from a small soldier? ”
"General, I left the army for two years and returned, and there is no reason to continue to enjoy the original military position, so I started from a small soldier, and now I am promoted to battalion commander, and when the war is over, I should be able to be promoted to regiment commander!"
Ye Tong nodded!
"Not bad! If you have blood, you will definitely be promoted, work hard! General Ben is looking forward to it, the Montessori clan, General Ben is most optimistic about you. ”
"Thank you, lord!"
When the Imperial Army went on the expedition, two magazines and newspapers, "Focus" and "Imperial Daily", made timely reports, which shocked the people of the world at once!
Millions of Huns iron cavalry criminals at the border?
Maudun led a million iron horsemen to take revenge?
There are also some tabloids that also reported the incident, and the headlines are very shocking, all of them are millions of Huns riding iron horses or something, and they are scared to death at first glance.
For this reason, the Hundred Debate Halls of the Empire also organized a special debate on the Xiongnu border passes.
None of the hundreds of schools of thought opposed the Qin army's decision to counterattack, and they all issued appeals that the Yan and Huang people should work together to completely solve the problem of the Huns.
Including Confucianism and Mohistism also supported the Qin army's counterattack.
After Ye Tong received the information, he smiled.
I know in my heart that in the era of the Qin Emperor's army, neither Confucianism nor Mohist was so pedantic, and later it became pedantic because many subsets of scriptures and histories disappeared.
Coupled with the continuous submersion of later generations, the originally incomplete Confucian classics have completely changed their taste, and they have a completely different meaning from the original classics.
If nothing else, let's just say that during the Song Dynasty, civilian officials led troops to war, and civilian officials definitely couldn't fight wars. However, after being captured, the vast majority of civilian officials did not surrender and only sought death, which is really very strong and admirable.
---------------
What Ye Tong didn't know was that Mao Dun led a million iron horsemen to invade the border pass of Emperor Qin's army, and there was no way to do it. In recent years, the birth rate of children on the grassland has become lower and lower, and the physical fitness of young people has gradually weakened, which makes Mao Dun puzzled.
There is no way, if it goes on like this, once the strength of the Qin Empire increases, with Ye Tong's character, he will definitely take the initiative to send troops to attack the Huns. It was precisely because of this consideration that Mao Dun did not hesitate to lead his troops and horses to a decisive battle with the Qin army.
What happened on the grassland was, of course, the destruction plan presided over by Chen Ping, and the effect of the plan was gradually reflected in the past few years. The population of the Xiongnu tribes is constantly declining, and the decline in population means a decline in strength, which is something that fools understand.
Chen Ping carried out the destruction plan, not only plundered the gold and silver in the hands of the Huns, but also caused the Huns to face the situation of extermination. Of course, none of the businessmen who performed this task dared to speak out, because once they spoke out, they would face extinction.
What's more, the merchant said that the Qin Empire was planned to terminate at most, and the merchant would also be hit by the retaliatory blows of the Huns, and the merchant could not afford it.
In the past few years, no one knows how much of the problematic high wine sold to the grassland, only the person in charge of the shipper in Dingjunshan knows, and even Ye Tong does not know the specific quantity.
Ye Tong knew about the information in his heart, but he didn't know the reason why Mao Dun sent troops. If Ye Tong knew, he would definitely laugh for three days.
