Sanggan, Takayanagi, and Ru, Xuchi, and the Tsumichi clan, plus the Daiwang headquarters, and the Dairen who hold the banner of the black dog are a total of six tribes. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The Sanggan is divided into three branches: the headquarters, the imperial department, and the Hunbu. Although the place occupied cannot be compared with the king of Dai, but as the second largest tribe in the strength of the six tribes, whether it is the population or cattle, sheep and livestock, or farmland and pasture are quite considerable, the total number of people is 15,000 people, across the Sanggan River and the two tributaries of the Hunhe River and the Yuhe River, and even built a small city of more than 1,000 people, which has a market, which is an important place for trade between the Jin State and the Dai Kingdom.

The reason why the population is many times larger than that of the Hu tribe on the steppe is not only that these generations annexed a large number of tribes and reduced them to slavery decades ago, but also because they were already engaged in farming, and agriculture could feed more people than animal husbandry. However, their crops are planted only once a year and the rest of the time is spent grazing.

In short, although the Sang cadres were strong within the Dai Kingdom, when Mu Xia led the 8,000 Zhao army to attack, their little resistance and precaution could only be described as an egg hitting a stone......

Boom! Dozens of bowstrings sounded, but the feather arrows that flew out could not shoot the heavily armed Zhao battle array on the opposite side.

They are simply armed to the teeth! Broad shields, thick leather armor, and the sparkling bronze armor of the first row of armorers, they slowly advanced with spears in their arms, leaving the archers of the generation, who had always prided themselves on their marksmanship, helpless.

Although there are many horses in Daiguo, their main means of combat is still a mixed formation of horses, chariots, and apprentices, but they do not pay attention to the formation as much as Zhuxia. During the battle, they rushed up in a chaotic manner, either being poked to death by spears, or being shot into a sieve by the powerful bow and crossbow fire behind the Zhao clan's armor soldiers.

The Dai people were full of despair, it had been nine full days since the Jin people crossed the Juzhu Plug and invaded the Dai Kingdom, and they resisted fiercely, but they still retreated an average of twenty miles a day, getting closer and closer to the Sanggan City behind them.

"You can't fight like that!"

The patriarch of the Sang cadres has been anxious, originally they had been prepared for the invasion of the Jin people, because the relationship between the country and the Zhao family has continued to deteriorate in recent years, and last year it was learned through different channels that the head of the Zhao family had gathered a large army in Jinyang and other places, and practiced all day long, obviously trying to represent the country.

Therefore, the acting king greeted the various departments, especially the Sang cadres who were on the verge of sentence note, and asked them to be careful, but when the Jin people attacked, the generation people still found that they had made too little preparation.

The wide fields on both sides of the Sanggan River allowed the Zhao army's attack to be unimpeded, but the weak and sporadic attacks of the generation could not shake the Zhao army's formation at all. Since the field war is unfavorable, then you can only defend the city, but because it is a half-herding and half-farming nation, the generation of people for the defense of the city is more neglected, Yuyi, Hunyi only has a wooden fence, only Sang Cognac has more than a zhang city wall, last year under the strict warning of the king, only reluctantly increased to one and a half zhang.

But now, it seems, is not enough.

On the eighth day after crossing the sentence note, Zhao Junbing came to Sanggan. For Zhao Wushu, who had captured big cities such as Chaoge and Puyang, the city walls of this height and the more than 1,000 guards in the city basically did not form any obstacles. As long as they spend half a day attacking this place, resting and resupplying, they can continue to advance along the river and kill all the way to Daicheng.

However, after easily breaking the city, Zhao Jun found that only the elderly and the sick and disabled were left in the city, and the rest of the generations were nowhere to be found......

……

"If it goes on like this, it will be easy to destroy the generation!" Standing at the head of Sanggan City, Youcheng was very excited, this small town was not enough to satisfy his desire for conquest, only the head of Daicheng and Daiwang was worthy of dedication to the head of the family.

Mu Xia did not relax his vigilance, although he also felt the ease of this expedition, all the way over, the Zhao army only lost more than 100 people, the three Sanggan troops added up to 2,000 combat strength, but they have lost three or four hundred, Hun and Yu have been captured by the partial division commanded by Tian Ben and Xu Qu, and now Sanggan City has also been taken, and the trouble brought to them by the resistance of the generation has not even been much more difficult to supply.

They had already left the country and penetrated more than 100 miles into the country, and this long and dangerous supply line was very fragile, and Mucha had to spend a lot of energy to maintain it and ensure that the back route was not cut off.

At this time, it was autumn and winter, the farmland was idle, and only the pastures with artemisia grass were left on both sides of the Sanggan River.

What's more, before the arrival of the Zhao army, the astute generation abandoned his farmland and house. According to scouts, the generations on both sides of the Sanggan River were either dismantling tents or collecting cattle and sheep, tying things up on carts on horseback, looking like they were preparing to migrate.

More than 1,000 people in Sanggan City were evacuated in the same way, huddled in the city and waited for the enemy to fight, which was not the style of the people of the country.

Compared with the Zhao army, which needed to rely on grain supplies, the advantage of the Dai people was their nomadic nature, although they had settled in the Dai Land for many years, the habitual spring and summer grazing of various tribes allowed them to have a rapid transfer and mobilization system. After the Zhao army attacked, seeing that it could not be defeated, with the order of the commander of the Sang cadres, the people tied their tents and supplies to the wagons, drove the cattle, sheep and livestock, and moved away from the road.

Therefore, Mucha knew that the real battle had not yet come, and he did not take the suggestion of the post army to pursue and quickly approach Daicheng, but fought steadily, and every time he captured the small towns on both sides of the Sanggan River, he would leave people to guard and guard the safety of the grain route.

Although this move is safe, Shi Qi is also worried: "Although the Zhao army is strong, it has to divide troops to guard the roads and cities along the Sanggan River, plus the attrition caused by injuries and illness, when it is close to Daicheng, how many troops can be left?" Seven thousand? Six thousand? In the past few days when we are slowly advancing, Daiko may have gathered the tribes and gathered the army to clear the wilderness. Moving on, we will probably be greeted by an uninhabited land within a radius of more than 100 miles, and if we are dragged until the winter snowfalls, the army will be in a desperate situation! When the time comes, if you go hundreds of miles back to China, and the generations who are hugging together will harass along the way, the consequences will be unimaginable! ”

Shi Qi was worried that it was not for no reason, it was estimated before the war that the six divisions of the generation, plus the Wuzhi and Tu He departments that surrendered to the generations, would probably be able to make up seven or eight thousand apprentices, more than 1,000 horsemen, and hundreds of cars, of course, it would take at least half a month for the generation to assemble, and if the Zhao army was head-on, well-equipped, and advanced in tactics, it would have the advantage. But if it is broken into pieces by the enemy and exchanges space for time, so that Zhao Jun cannot find a chance for a decisive battle, it will be troublesome to drag it out until winter, it is simply a copy of the battle of Zhao Qi Snow Plains many years ago......

Mu Xia groaned and said: "You are right, you need to be cautious, but you can't miss the fighter, the safety of our rear can be guaranteed, the whole army has ordered, carry ten days of dry food after passing Sanggan, speed up, and strive for a decisive battle with the enemy in Daicheng!" ”

He looked at the vast north from afar, and thought in his heart: At this moment, Yu Xi's cavalry has arrived in Daidi, and the victory or defeat of this battle depends on the success of his great detour......

……

That is, in the early morning of this day, Tu Heyi's new young dog woke up from his sleep and was told: There is a faint smoke and dust rising in the north of the city, and it seems that a large group of people and horses have arrived.

The new young dog hurriedly put on his armor, took his hard bow, and went to the humble city of Tu Heyi to look, and everyone next to him was nervous.

Today's autumn is crisp and the sky is clear, but the new puppy faintly hears a slight thunder in the distance......

He looked up at the sky in surprise, but there was not even a single cloud, and he immediately reacted, his face turned pale, and he stared at the fields north of the city, staring intently.

As the continuous "thunder" became louder and louder, a black line faintly appeared in the north of Tuhe City, which was a galloping horse and a knight......

The new young dog counted it roughly, and was immediately shocked: "There are more than 1,000 horses, is this all the tribes of Donghu here!?" "From last year to the present, the Donghu tribe that migrated westward, with the combat power of hundreds of horsemen, caused great trouble and trouble to Tu He, looking at this posture, so many men and horses were dispatched, could it be that the entire Yan Dynasty is more than a thousand miles north, all the Donghu tribes jointly held a raid? This is unreasonable, the enmity between those Donghu tribes is greater than that with Tu He, unless the gods they believe in come, they will never unite!

However, the next thing that caught his eye was not the Huang Zhen of the Donghu people, but a blackbird flying in the fire......

Falcon? Crow? The new puppy does not remember which nearby tribe's totem is like this.

When the banner got closer, he had been to the border of Yan Kingdom, and he also knew about Jin Kingdom and the Zhao family through Shang Jia, he rubbed his eyes, took a closer look, and couldn't help but gasp: "It's Xuanniao!" ”
