Chapter 196: Yanren Zhang Fei exterminated the three Hans
In the land of Liaodong, Zhang Fei, who had been waiting for a long time, led three thousand Yan cavalry, supported by Gongsun Du as the rear, and first drove to Goguryeo in the north, Goguryeo had been suppressed by Gongsun Du before and could not raise his head; In the past, Zhang Fei's name shocked Liaodong, and the king of Goguryeo, Yuan Yu, heard that Zhang Fei led his army to come, and Gongsun Du was the backing, so he did not dare to fight, and he was willing to bow down and be a minister.
However, this time, Zhang Fei did not come to conquer Goguryeo, his goal was Samhan in the south, but he had to pass through Goguryeo along the way, so he took it all together.
"Brothers, this time we are here to conquer a group of brazen people, who are determined to win, can you have confidence?" On the border between Goguryeo and Samhan on the Korean Peninsula, in the autumn wind and falling leaves, Zhang Fei rode on the dark clouds and stepped on the snow, holding eight snake spears in his hands, shouting in front of the sequence of 3,000 iron cavalry and the 30,000 Goguryeo troops next to him.
"Imperative, fearless." The three thousand Yan cavalry roared loudly, and the sound overshadowed the 10,000 Goguryeo soldiers and horses next to them, these three thousand Yan cavalry were the elite soldiers under Zhang Fei, and the main general's temper was like this, and the soldiers under him were naturally no better. As soon as they heard that Samhan was so brazen, everyone rushed to be the first.
"General Zhang, the 10,000 military horses of Goguryeo have been assembled, please instruct the general." The king of Goguryeo, Yuan Yuhei, was next to Zhang Fei and bowed down and said. Yuan Yuhei was also shocked by the momentum of these three thousand cavalry, and secretly congratulated himself in his heart that he did not fight Zhang Fei.
"You have the right to go and destroy Chen Han, and the other two will be handed over to me, after the matter is completed, I will go back to ask my eldest brother for instructions, and crown you as the commander of the three Hans, and you can trade with me in the Central Plains." Zhang Fei said impatiently.
"Thank you general, I will definitely do my best to help the general pacify Samhan." As soon as Yuan Yuhei heard that he could open up trade, his face was full of joy, he had already heard that the Central Plains was rich and rich, and the Central Plains commodities he usually came into contact with were only a small part. At this time, trade is open, and the country does not have to worry about winter food.
Zhang Fei responded coldly, turned back to the three thousand Yan Qi, and shouted: "Okay! Let's let those brazen people know that our Celestial Empire will not allow villains to be defiled! Then he turned the horse's head and looked ahead, and the spear of the snake rose up, and the horse moved forward. Kill! Zhang Fei shouted.
"Kill!" Behind him, the three thousand iron horsemen shouted together, and the horses' hooves galloped, resounding all over the earth, and in an instant, the Goguryeo military horses were thrown behind their backs, and in a burst of passionate shouts, the three thousand Yan horses broke through from the Yalu River into the territory of Sanhan like a flood.
After breaking in, Zhang Fei fought first, and waved the essence of the word light cavalry to the extreme, and the three thousand Yan horses broke into the gathering place of the three Koreans like the wind, and the first one was Ma Han, who had the largest number of three Koreans. There are more than 100,000 households in total, nearly 400,000 people, divided into 42 tribes, although the number is dozens of times that of Zhang Fei, but Mahan did not have much city at that time, only a little stronger than the primitive society, although there are iron tools, but there are only some low earthen walls in its tribe to block the flood of wild beasts. There was no discipline and law, and the tribes remained independent and had no alliances.
Under the attack of Zhang Fei's 3,000 Yan cavalry, it was only seven days, and 16 of the 42 tribes of Mahan were wiped out by Zhang Fei, but there were not many casualties among Zhang Fei's iron cavalry, at most there were only some lightly injured personnel, and the number was only a few dozen, and only one soldier was unfortunately shot by a stray arrow and died.
It is true that Zhang Fei fought undeclaredly and caught those Ma Han sticks off guard, but the combat effectiveness of those Ma Han sticks was indeed weak and pitiful. In fact, since the surrender of Goguryeo, Zhang Fei has delayed some time, and it stands to reason that the people in the land of Samhan should also know that those sticks do not want to believe it; Their location is a poor and remote place, in their eyes, the Central Plains is a paradise, how can they look at them? In the past, Emperor Wu only conquered the four northern counties, and he gave up. Moreover, Liu Bei does not border with Sanhan, so there seems to be no reason.
It's a pity that they were wrong, Zhao Xu has an understanding of any country in the world today. If it weren't for Zhao Xu's busy fighting in various parts of the Central Plains, and his base was not in Youzhou, he would have destroyed these three small countries a long time ago; Although Zhao Xu understands, he is not interested in other ethnic groups, and there are only a few who are interested, but unfortunately, Sanhan is within his goal.
In the face of the Goguryeo Legion with 30,000 troops, and Chenhan, who was the weakest, it could only be described as miserable; Goguryeo was very familiar with the Sanhan troops, and when the Xiongnu were defeated in the Han Dynasty, Goguryeo subdued the Sanhan, and now it is easy to face the weakest Chenhan, with no more than 100,000 soldiers and civilians in the country.
In the face of Goguryeo, who was very familiar with him, and Zhang Fei's troops, who had received strict training and longed for glory, and were like wolves, the resistance of Ma Han and Chen Han seemed boring, and Ma Han and Chen Han had a total of 100,000 troops, but Zhang Fei was thick and fine, strategic, and brave; Goguryeo has been the big brother for many years; In the end, less than 20,000 of the armies of the two countries survived, and all the men who dared to resist were killed; Goguryeo was a little embarrassed, but Zhang Fei was very conniving at the behavior of his subordinates, in his opinion, this was very good, and the three Hans who killed him were terrified, and he would not dare to talk nonsense in the future. What's more, Zhang Fei didn't kill prisoners indiscriminately, but just killed the Mahan people who were in a head-to-head confrontation, and besides, the massacre of Sanhan should also be done, and there is a price to pay for talking nonsense.
After Zhang Fei captured Mahan, he seemed to find it unchallenging, stopped his advance, and settled in the occupied area; Since Zhang Fei stopped, Goguryeo didn't do it anymore, and he didn't take another half step forward, Zhang Fei seemed to be waiting for something, maybe he was waiting for him to really kill him!
In the capital of Liaodong, in the mansion of the Marquis of Liaodong, Gongsun Du was discussing the war of Sanhan with his son Gongsun Kang and the generals under his command.
"Father, it seems that General Zhang wants to solve Samhan at once, but I don't know how long Samhan can last." Gongsun Kang said with a smile. He didn't understand the reason why Zhao Xu came all the way to exterminate Sanhan, but later he heard that Sanhan had robbed the history of the Han people in the Central Plains and talked nonsense, which made him immediately angry. originally wanted to replace Zhang Fei on the expedition, but Zhang Fei refused. To tell the truth, using a fierce general like Zhang Fei to deal with Sanhan is really a waste of time to kill chickens with a knife, and it is a waste of time to use such a poor place.
"It is estimated that General Zhang will ask Sanhan to gather troops and horses and fight a decisive battle!" Gongsun Du thought about it and said.
"Oh, father, why is that?" Gongsun Kang asked suspiciously.
"General Zhang is brave and fierce in the world, and his sex is like a raging fire, if he is killed one by one like this, it will definitely not be in line with General Zhang's wishes; What's more, the decisive battle of the main force is decisive, and we must kill the three Hans who are afraid of our big men like tigers, so that the subsequent forced surrender will be twice the result with half the effort. Gongsun Du's eyes flashed with sharpness, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he smiled. After Gongsun Du came to Liaodong, he began to have an unstable foundation, fought Goguryeo and so on several times, and knew that those barbarian U knew the most, knowing that they had no faith and righteousness, and had always only submitted to the powerful, and only killing them in a battle to make them lose their resistance was the most labor-saving way.
"Father, General Zhang only brought 3,000 cavalry, and the three Hans gathered troops are probably close to 100,000, do we really need to send troops to help? If General Zhang misses something...... Gongsun Kang smiled when he heard this, and then asked sadly.
"Huh! You underestimate General Zhang Fei and Zhang Yide too much, although the number of people in the land of Sanhan is large, but if you say that the elite is good at fighting, I am afraid that only 30 of them will not be able to defeat one of our army; General Zhang bravely crowned the three armies, led the troops to fight for many years, and he was deeply accustomed to cavalry warfare. Haven't you heard General Zhao Xu say: Zhang Fei and Zhang Yide's millions of generals in the army are like probing for things! It's just three Hans, what a lot of worry. Gongsun Du said lightly.
"The father's words are very true, and the child is taught." Gongsun Kang suddenly remembered Zhang Fei's feat of scaring away tens of thousands of Wuhuan soldiers in the past, and he couldn't help but feel a burst of reverence in his heart.
The cessation of Zhang Fei and Goguryeo finally caused the Samhan people to panic, and the driven Mahan and Jinhan soon spread the news of the Han invasion to every corner of the peninsula, and the Benhan people, who had thought they were at ease, also began to fear.
They never expected that Liu Bei would come to attack their poor place; And it came so quickly, the situation in the Central Plains Sanhan people also heard about it, but they didn't expect Liu Bei to divide his troops to attack the land of Sanhan under the pressure of Cao Cao and Sun Ce.
However, they miscalculated, this is Zhao Xu's idea: do it casually. For these ungrateful and brazen Peninsula sticks, Zhao Xu is angry.
Ma Han and Chen Han, who had suffered heavy losses, were no longer able to stop Benhan's overlord status in the three Hans, but King Benhan did not have a trace of joy, Zhang Fei was powerful in the past, and no one knew about the entire peninsula, no one knew; I never expected that today's frightened Zhang Fei waved his army to fight, and even their suzerain, Goguryeo, bowed down to his vassals, which made them how to resist the already weak Sanhan.
King Benhan sat on the throne of his palace stupidly, his face was full of fear, and it took a long time for him to come back to his senses, look at His Royal Highness's ministers, and ask whom, "What should we do?" Yes, surrender, we surrendered to the Han Dynasty, Goguryeo surrendered, we also surrendered! ”
"The king, it's useless, the Han have always paid attention to etiquette, and this time they drove out without even seeing the envoy we sent, and I don't know which of our clansmen offended the Han and wanted to completely wipe out our three Hans, alas!" When the prime minister saw his king lose his temper, he couldn't help but speak.
The Prime Minister's words, like a basin of biting ice water, completely extinguished the flame of hope in the heart of King Benhan, and King Benhan fell weakly on the humble throne and muttered to himself.
"Why should the king worry, we originally had 50,000 horses in Benhan, plus Ma Han and Chen Han deserters, it is estimated that there are also 100,000 troops, the Han army is only 3,000, and Goguryeo is only 30,000, what a foot to say, let's fight with them!" Kim Jae-in, the No. 1 warrior in Benhan, jumped up and said.
Kim Jae-in's words seemed to ignite King Benhan's hope again, but King Benhan's face changed, and he groaned for a while, saying, "Yes! We also have soldiers, as long as we can repel them this time, and then sue for peace, maybe we can still ......" King Benhan burst into tears and smiled, looked at Jin Zaiyin, and said: "Jin Zaiyin, you go and gather all the people who can fight, and you must repel the Han army and Goguryeo for me!" ”
"Yes, the king, the minister must kill all those Han dogs and Goguryeo dogs!" Kim Jae-in said loudly, as if he looked down on King Benhan's timid appearance.
"No, no!" Looking at the arrogant Jin Zaiyin, King Benhan became worried again, and said: "If we anger the big Han, they will mobilize heavy troops to attack in the future, how should we deal with it?" ”
Jin Zaiyin looked unhappy when he heard this, and shouted: "The king is confused! If we wipe out the Han army and the Goguryeo army in one fell swoop, and there is not a single one left, they will not dare to attack again in the future. ”
"Well...... well! Whatever you want! However, Goguryeo is familiar with the tactics of our army, so he can attack the Han army first, and the Han army is small, and after the Han army is destroyed, he can lead a large army to surround Goguryeo, and he may be able to defeat Goguryeo in one fell swoop, so that Goguryeo can submit to us. King Benhan said with luck.
"Yes! The king, the last general will not let the king down. Kim Jae-in said firmly.
Under the full conscription of King Benhan and Jin Zaiin, an army of 100,000 was assembled within ten days, of which Ma Han and Chen Han accounted for more than half, and now that Ma Han and Chen Han have been destroyed, they have no choice; At least everyone is equipped with weapons, at least the best of them have iron tools, and there are five or six thousand people who have iron tools, and there are stone axes and stone knives in the middle, and there are wooden knives in the poor, which looks quite neat, and as for the morale, it can only be said that the ignorant are fearless! Except for the Mahan and Jinhan, the Benhan army encouraged each other and said, "There are so many of us, dozens of times the enemy's army, how can we be mixed up to protect ourselves."
It's a pity that they are only blind, how do they know that they are facing a heavily armed Youzhou Elite Cavalry.
In Jin Zaiyin's eyes, the other party only has 3,000 people, and he has an army of 100,000, including 5,000 cavalry, and an army of 100,000 to fight 3,000 people. It's just that he never imagined that now the cavalry of the entire Han Dynasty has been equipped with horse shoes, fully armed, and the fine bow and crossbow have been assembled, and the training method is even more unthinkable to them. The Samhan people had never fought against any nation-state except Goguryeo, and their knowledge of cavalry and elite soldiers was really pitifully limited.
