Section 693 Strategies for dealing with the Zhou Dynasty
The autumn breeze began to blow in September, and the weather in Central Asia began to be cool, which was just the right time to march. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Although it is not suitable to go on a big job, Wei Xi's army still took advantage of the winter to do a vote, and their target was mainly aimed at the "wooden deer" of the white-clothed Khorasan Province.
In the 7th century, Mulu (also known as Mare or Male, located in Turkmenistan), located on the Silk Road, was located on the Silk Road, with a well-developed handicraft industry and commerce, a tall city, and a dense population, which became the station of Khorasan Province.
The cavalry of the Tang Army Brigade marched towards the wooden deer, the grassless desert was blown in the autumn wind by the dust raised by the horses, the wind and sand walked the stones, the distance was very spectacular, the army marched in it, and the aura of slaughter rolled in.
This area is flat, the 150,000 cavalry of the Tang army marched together, swooping over violently, and approaching the adjacent area of Mulu, the people in the city looked down, and the field was full of Tang cavalry, wearing many black robes, and there was really a black cloud to destroy the city!
Khorasan Governor Nasser and General Abaz declared a state of emergency in Khorasan and ordered the cities to clear their walls and fields, not to fight, to close their gates during the day, and to defend the city by soldiers and civilians.
The other cities arranged it this way, and Abaz led an army of 80,000 in Mulu, half of each horse, and went out to fight on his back!
is not afraid of the tens of thousands of Zhou troops, and the end is a kind of belt.
Nasser feared for the safety of his troops, and Abaz laughed and said nothing.
He guessed correctly, the Tang Army really didn't dare to fight!
Fighting under the city, the opponent has an infantry array, and the cavalry that comes to attack is in a disadvantageous position.
The Great Food Army laughed loudly, and Wang Xiaojie, the commander of the Zhou Army, laughed and said: "I was deceived by the shaft!" ”
In this attack, Wei Xi did not come, he led his troops to fetch fire to find the country, and handed over the task to Wang Xiaojie.
Wang Xiaojie knew very well what he was going to do, looking for an opportunity to annihilate the main force of the Great Food Army, and when there was no chance to find it, he would attack small towns and villages all over Khorasan, cut off traffic, and rob the population.
So the Tang army went on quickly, in addition to the main force of nearly 100,000 cavalry nailed the Mulu defenders, and then divided the troops to go around burning, killing and plundering.
On the land of Khorasan, the figures of the cavalry of the Zhou army appeared everywhere, and they kept in mind the instructions of the officers, and they single-mindedly plundered, robbed the population, and killed those who did not obey.
There are four central cities in Khorasan Province, a big food country, namely Mulu, Balkh (located near Mazar-e-Sharif, Afghanistan), Herat, Herat, Afghanistan, and Nishapur (located in Nishapur, west of Mashhad in northeastern Iran).
"Kill!"
The light and noise of the night alarmed Nasser and Abaz, and they went up to the city to look out and saw the fire in the direction of the small city of Bairam, which was thirty miles away from the city, and they must have been robbed.
One trick is fresh, eat all over the sky, and the Bairam defenders saw that the Zhou army was all cavalry, because the horses could not go to the city, and they didn't care.
At dawn, the Zhou army threw a bag of soil under the city, reaching the top in an instant, and then (in) the infantry landed on the city and immediately captured the city!
The infantry of the Zhou army rode horses, which was conducive to maneuvering, and could not shoot and fight on horseback, but confused the defenders of Bairam.
When the infantry arrives in the city, it will be their world, and they will do whatever they want.
The gray-haired Nasser smashed his fist on the battlements, ignoring the damage and bleeding, and said hatefully: "In the coming year, we must send troops to destroy the Great Zhou!" ”
He was a Persian, from Nishapur, and had a hand in the administrative army, which was valued by the royal court.
"No!" Arbaaz stopped, his eyes shining unusually bright in the distant glow of fire.
"I heard Shi Jianming, the prince of Shi, talk about the strength of the Zhou army, the infantry has the advantage of the sword, the battle is difficult to defeat in the world, and there are many trebuchets, and the siege power is very great. There were nearly 100,000 cavalry, and a large 'Turkish' tribe in the northeast was collected, with a total of 300,000 cavalry.
Therefore, if we go on an expedition to the land of the two rivers (Amu Darya and Syr Darya), the army will not have as many cavalry as the Zhou army, and the infantry may not be able to defeat them, the army will be wiped out, and Khorasan will be undefended, and it will definitely be defeated! ”
"Once you fight, it's self-defeating!" Arbaaz said.
When Nasser heard that the Zhou army had 400,000 cavalry, he was stunned at first, and said sullenly: "But if you don't fight, the enemy will take the initiative and lose if you defend it for a long time!" ”
"After the enemy slackens, you need to be patient to find a fighter plane!" Abaz's eyes flashed with wisdom.
The big cannibal shrank his head as a turtle, Wang Xiaojie gained a lot, drove the people of Khorasan all the way, robbed those handsome men and beautiful women and children, escorted them back to the rear, counted as slaves, and everyone gained after auctioning.
Moreover, Khorasan is located on the Silk Road, and although the big cities have collected most of the wealth, there is still some wealth in the small places, which was also robbed by the Zhou army.
robbed almost a million pieces of goods and 100,000 people (20,000 or 30,000 died on the way), and everywhere the Zhou army went, they laughed, and everywhere there was a cry that shook the sky.
The big cannibal was deeply puzzled: "The Zhou Dynasty dealt with the people like this, aren't you afraid that the people will not accept it?" ”
I didn't want Wei Xi's idea to be: "Okay, the denser the grass grows, the faster it will be cut!" ”
……
Wang Xiaojie runs a small business, and Wei Xi packs a country.
Located in the lower reaches of the Amu Darya River, Huoxun country, is one of the Zhaowu countries, there was no submission before, this time Wei Xi personally led 50,000 infantry and 20,000 cavalry, and went to the fire to find the country.
Sent Kang Caien to persuade him to surrender, he entered the palace of the house, took the lead and threatened loudly: "Kangguo, Biguo, Anguo, and Mi have surrendered, Shiguo, Cao, and He have been broken, and the land of the two rivers will all belong to the Great Zhou!" ”
"Cao resisted, all men were slaughtered, and women were slaves! The people of Shi and He are also slaves! Today, the fire is looking for what path to take, and make a decision early! ”]
"Da Shi is too busy to take care of himself, and he has no power to help, you can only rely on yourself!"
After he left, the Huoxun royal court fell into a fierce quarrel, surrender, unwilling; Be free, but afraid!
As a result of the quarrel, it was decided to surrender!
The Zhou army showed that he had the ability to destroy them, and his life was gone, so what was the use of asking for money.
Huoxun surrendered, and Wei Xi announced that they would be relocated to the ruined Shiguo, Cao, and He countries, after all, Huoxun was far away from the Zhaowu Kingdoms, and Wei Xi would not do anything to fund the enemy.
"All countries have to pay three million pieces of filial piety if they return to obedience, and because you want to move the country, it will cost a lot, so I don't want you three million!"
"Ten days later, they all moved away, and those who remained here were caught by me, and they were all my slaves!"
Wei Xi used both soft and hard, and the people of Huoxun were unwilling, but after all, their arms couldn't twist their thighs, and the whole country left their hometowns, and before winter came, they arrived in a new place to settle down.
Invited the royal court members and elites of various countries to the divine capital, and then sent officials to take charge of the lands and carry out sinicization, and the Lite people integrated into the Great Zhou at an astonishing speed.
