The ministers were deliberating, and Liu Yi was pondering.

Seriously, if it weren't for the fear of causing the death of the world's heroes and foxes, and the hatred of the same enemy, if Cao Cao issued a pseudo-emperor's blood summons, he would destroy the Shangdang and Zhang Yang would trigger the possibility of the world's princes attacking him, Liu Yi really wanted to wave his hand and lead the army to destroy the Shangdang Zhang Yang first and then fight to the death with the Huns.

It's just that at this juncture, Liu Yi is really not good at causing a war with the princes of the world. In this way, I had to let the party publicize Ansheng for a few more days.

Now Luoyang has become a place where everyone in the world pays attention, and every courtier, they all have a kind of worry, and they are all a little worried that Luoyang will fall into the same situation as when Dong Zhuo was in Luoyang, and will be attacked by the princes of the world. Therefore, their topic is nothing more than how to attack the Huns under the condition that Luoyang is really safe.

Liu Biao was not worried, and Liu Yi also deduced that Cao Cao could not really send troops to attack Luoyang, and Dong Zhuo was also blocked in Tongguan, and it was impossible to pose a threat to Luoyang again. However, many courtiers felt that they should be careful to deal with it, and they should leave more or less troops in Luoyang, just in case of a change, and they must not lightly fight the Huns. Now, this is the most difficult thing for Leo, there is a feeling of being constrained.

Do you really have to wait until the Hun army arrives in the east of the Hedong River?

However, having said that, if you wait for the Hun army to be killed in Hedong, you will be ready from now on to fight to the death with the Hun army in Hedong, which is not impossible. Moreover, he also had enough time to make thorough preparations, because his army was not as afraid of the onslaught of the Hun cavalry as ordinary troops. The first battle was settled, and the Hun army was solved at one time, and it could also save Liu Yi a lot of trouble.

In fact, Liu Yi was not afraid of a decisive battle with the Huns now, but was worried that the Huns would not dare to fight a decisive battle with his own army.

You know, the cavalry is coming like the wind, and it is really a bit difficult to find it and fight against it. And the state is so big. If your army goes deep into the state and takes the initiative to attack, you will be passive.

The main reason for this is that the Huns may not be able to fight a decisive battle with their own army.

This has to do with the way aliens fight. The rangers of the aliens are mainly sneak attacks, and they take advantage of the advantages of fast horses to come like the wind, and if they miss a blow, they will generally roar, especially if the forces of the two sides are equal. Or when there are far more troops on their side than them, they will definitely not have the idea of fighting a decisive battle with their opponents, and they will definitely avoid battle. These are the combat styles of the aliens.

In the case that Tai Shici had already returned to Hedong and lost the opportunity to occupy Jinyang, he could not put the battlefield in the vast Hetao Plain, so it seemed that the only way to fight a decisive battle with the Xiongnu army in Hedong was to do so.

Now the problem that Liu Yi has to think about is how to defeat the invading Huns in Hedong, and then how to recover the entire annexed state.

How to defeat the Xiongnu army in the east of the Bingzhou River. And how much can you preserve your strength?

Liu Yi's mind couldn't help but imagine the picture of more than 200,000 Xiongnu cavalry menacing, waving their horses to attack his own army, his own army. Using countless strong bows and arrows, throwing spears and spears to withstand their attacks, how similar is that situation to the decisive battle with Dong Zhuo's cavalry? Dong Zhuo's cavalry failed to take advantage of his own army, how could the Huns be an exception? Liu Yi thought that with the character of the Huns, when the attack did not go well, it would definitely be like Dong Zhuo, the army would retreat, and their cavalry would retreat, so what could their own infantry do? It was not possible to destroy a large number of Huns in this battle. It will not play the role of deciding the outcome of the first war. The Hun army that crab went will definitely take advantage of their horse speed in the future, gallop in Bingzhou, and keep invading their own armies or towns. There are endless troubles in the future.

What Lewy is worried about now is. I am afraid that if I fight with the Huns for too long and cannot fight quickly, I will consume a lot of my energy and consume too much manpower and material resources.

Is there any way to make these Hun cavalry come and go?

There are many ways to deal with cavalry, but in a place like Hedong, it is really difficult to find a favorable place to ambush the Xiongnu army, they can't fight and escape, and they have no way to do anything with them, which is what Liu Yi feels the most.

It would be nice if the party could be taken over. If Shangdang is occupied, the Huns will not have any threat to Luoyang, and they will definitely not rashly bypass Shangdang and lead the army to reach Hedong to point to Luoyang. In this way, he has time and space to deal with the Huns.

Shangdang is a fierce place, if there is a way to introduce the Huns into the Shangdang area, it will also be able to save them from returning. I think about the time when the Warring States Seven Kingdoms competed for power. In the battle of Shangdang Shangping, Bai Qi of Qin State relied on the geographical advantage of Shangdang and used almost the same force to kill hundreds of thousands of troops of Zhao State in Changping Pit, Bai Qi could do it back then, and Liu Yi believed that he could do it. It's a pity that Shangdang County is in the hands of Zhang Yang, relying on its geographical advantages, and does not allow its army to enter.

It would be nice if the cavalry had 100,000 cavalry themselves. It's a pity that Liu Yi hasn't been able to form an elite cavalry army for a while.

Leo Yi pondered for a long time, and suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he vaguely grasped something.

As soon as he thought about it, he said to His Highness's ministers: "By the way, how many blacksmiths do we have in Luoyang now?"

"Lord Yu, at the beginning of the transfer from Dongting Lake Xinzhou to ten blacksmith masters, hundreds of blacksmith apprentices, nearly half a year, we have almost never stopped the war, the consumption of ordnance is too large, just to create arrows, manpower is not enough, later, a large number of thousands of people were recruited from the people, they were trained, two months ago, this group of people can almost build some weapons. Later, in order to create agricultural tools for the people, another group of people were recruited...... "Xun Wenruo personally handled these things, so he still remembers them very clearly."

When Liu Yi heard this, he was overjoyed, but he didn't expect that there were so many blacksmiths in him.

In fact, it is not surprising to think about it, Liu Yi's army, the demand for arrows is an astronomical amount, as well as swords, spears, etc., if there is no large number of blacksmiths to participate in the fighting, how can it guarantee the equipment of hundreds of thousands of troops? This blacksmith is really not much, and it is only maintainable now.

"What about the iron ore? Is it enough? Are they all shipped from Dongting Lake Xinzhou now?" Liu Yi interrupted Xun Wenruo's speech and asked.

Jia Xu glanced at Liu Yi with a strange gaze at this time, and said on behalf of Xun Wenruo: "Lord, don't you know that there is an iron mine in our Luoyang area?"

"Uh, there's such a thing?"

"Eh, the lord really doesn't know?" Jia Xu patted his forehead and said, "Actually." As early as hundreds of years ago, this iron mine has been stored in Zài, when the Seven Kingdoms, it was the national mine of South Korea. South Korea relied on this iron mine to create elite iron equipment sergeants, so that it could survive among the warring states with many powerful countries, otherwise, with South Korea's weak national strength, it would have been wiped out by other countries. ”

"Oh? It's my own obscurity. "Liu Yi really doesn't know much about these allusions.

"This is Yiyang Iron Mine." Jia Xu grabbed a handful of beards and said: "A few decades ago, Yiyang Iron Mine has always been an official mine, but after Emperor Heng. Iron ore has almost been abandoned, mainly after hundreds of years of excavation, and it seems to have been dug up, and in recent decades, almost no more has been excavated. The explorers we transferred from Dongting Lake found that there was another mine near the original mine in Yiyang. It's just that it's not exposed like the original mine, and now, iron ore has long been excavated. The iron bloom we now use to build weapons is smelted from the iron ore of the Yiyang mine. Therefore, there is no longer any need to transfer Tie Hua from Dongting Lake Xinzhou. ”

"This is great" Liu Yi clapped his fists heavily, stood up and said: "I have a way to annihilate the 200,000 cavalry of the Huns, Yiyang Mine?" Haha, God help me."

Liu Yi couldn't help but laugh.

Seeing that Liu Yi was laughing, all the ministers in the hall were a little stunned. The main reason is that their lord's thinking is too out-of-the-box. Everyone was discussing how to deal with the current situation in the world and how to fight against the Hun army, but Liu Yi suddenly talked about what the blacksmith was, from the blacksmith to the mine. Then he suddenly jumped back and bluntly said that there was a way to annihilate more than 200,000 Hun cavalry.

Well, it's not confrontation, it's not defeat, it's annihilation. The ministers wondered if their ears had heard it wrong.

"Lord, lord, how is this? Ah. Please speak up quickly. ”

Several military advisors under the hall couldn't bear it.

"Don't be busy, that's all for today's discussion, a few military advisors will stay and eat together." Liu Yi stopped laughing, waved his hand and retreated, and said to the ministers: "It's not that I can't trust everyone, but this is a military secret, and it is not suitable to be widely announced for the time being, please forgive me."

"It's okay, it's okay, since the lord is already confident, how can I be surprised? Besides, we're just clerks, and we don't know much about military matters, so we're still busy with our own business. Yang Biao took the lead and led a group of courtiers to retreat.

If there is a way, these civil officials only need to do their own thing, and they don't have to worry too much about military matters. The basic national law of the Han Dynasty clearly stipulates that the military and the government are separated, and without special permission, ordinary civilian officials cannot intervene in military affairs.

Liu Yi took Jia Xu, Xun Wenruo, Guo Jia, as well as Lu Zhi, Chen Qun and others to a palace in the palace, ordered people to set up a banquet, and invited them to sit down one by one.

"Lord, don't be busy with the meal first, let's talk to all of us about your plan first." Jia Xu said a little impatiently.

"My plan is very simple, we will wait for the Huns to come in Hedong, wait for work, and annihilate the more than 200,000 Hun cavalry troops who invaded our Han this time in one fell swoop."

"Uh, lord, that's more than 200,000 cavalry, with the combat strength of our army, it is estimated that it will not be a problem to defeat them, but lord, do you mean annihilation?" Jia Xu had to scratch his head and said: "It's not easy to annihilate more than 200,000 troops, especially the cavalry, now I said, the Hedong region is mostly a plain area, and you want to annihilate more than 200,000 cavalry in such a plain area?" Is it possible? Even if the Huns can't beat us, they won't run away?"

"Escape? As long as they come, they don't want to run away. I must make them come and go," said Liu Yi with a cold glint in his eyes.

"The lord is saying that he wants to set up an ambush for the Huns? Is there such a large type of ambush on the east side of the river?" Guo Jia couldn't guess what Liu Yi was thinking.

"The earth type is dead, and the people are alive, and without that kind of ambush type, can't we create such a favorable land type?" Liu Yi looked at everyone with a smile.

"Can the ground type also create zào?" The people in the temple were even more confused.

"Lord, don't hang our appetite, what are the ideas, please make it clear to the lord." Chen Qun's law everyone couldn't sit still, and pleaded with Liu Yi with a serious face.

Liu Yi didn't hide it anymore and said to them: "It's very simple to say. It occurred to me that there was something called thistle. ”

"Tribulus terrestris, also known as four-cornered nails, as long as you throw it on the ground, there will be a thorn pointing upwards." Liu Yi didn't know if these things already existed in the Han Dynasty. So, by the way, I explained.

Actually, this kind of thing is just an obstacle, and it existed as early as the Warring States period.

The few military advisors present here, they naturally knew this kind of thing, and they knew what it was as soon as they heard it.

"Tribulus terrestris? What is the lord saying about this?" The crowd who didn't quite understand it for a while asked.

"Huh. Don't underestimate this kind of small thing, this thistle terrestris is very useful. Liu Yi smiled and said: "I plan to use this kind of thistle terrestris to arrange a large array and trap the Hun army in a fixed area, so that when they come, they will not be able to escape." Life or death, or not let us decide?"

"Tribulus terrestris array?" Jia Xu, Guo Jia and others looked at each other.

"W-That's unlikely, isn't it? Just with thistle, you can trap 200,000 Hun cavalry?" Xun Wenruo also felt a little incredible.

"Tribulus terrestris alone is definitely not enough. But what if we had a lot of them?" Liu Yi said in a somewhat gloomy tone: "My plan is like this, we will station troops in a relatively flat plain area to wait for the enemy, frontally." We only had to fight it with a small army, and then, on two sides, on one side hid our trappers and pikemen, and on the other side, pikemen and archers and a part of the cavalry. This was mainly to block the retreat of the Xiongnu army to the side and prevent them from breaking through and retreating. Then, we used a part of the cavalry, each with a large number of thistles, to throw down the thistles behind the Hun cavalry, and use the thistles to cut off the retreat of the Hun army. ”

"That's not right. Lord, is it enough to use only a small number of troops on the front? The more than 200,000 cavalry of the Hun army is not a joke, how can we resist when they kill them? Also, thistle terrestris cuts off its retreat? That's an army of more than 200,000 people, how big will their army array be? It could be a few miles, more than ten miles, how could we have cut off their retreat with thistles?" Even Guo Jia felt unlikely.

"More than ten miles? Even if it's twenty miles. I think it's possible. Liu Yi said magnificently: "Let's do the math, use iron tribulus terrestris, within a radius of one step, throw down ten iron tribulus terrestris, according to this base number, calculate how many iron tribulus terrestris you have to use in twenty miles." No matter how much we use, we will build as much as we want, and when the time comes, we will lay down a ...... that is more than ten miles long and several miles wide No, or you don't have to go so far, you can have a mile or two, such a grand iron thistle terrestris array, think about it, can the Huns' cavalry escape?"

Snow......

When everyone heard this, they immediately gasped, this is really a big deal, if you really lay such a man-made barrier, it is really possible to cut off the retreat of the Huns.

Within one square meter, in fact, there is no need to throw down ten tribulus terrestris, there are about five is enough, according to the ten tribulus terrestris thrown per square meter, more than ten miles long, three or four miles wide area, it is estimated that it will be covered with tens of millions of thistles. It's an amazing feat.

Liu Yi saw everyone looking at each other, and said to himself: "Now, let's all the blacksmiths in Luoyang start to make thistle, there are not enough manpower, just call it from the army, let's press the current people first, there will always be two thousand blacksmiths, right?" Each person can create 10 in a day, so they can create 20,000 tribulus terrestris in one day, and 200,000 in ten days, but can they only create 10 in a day? Therefore, as long as the iron bloom can keep up, let the blacksmiths start to build it from now on, and in ten days, they can create millions of thistles. So, it's not an impossible solution, nor is it an impossible solution. ”

When everyone heard Liu Yi calculate it like this, they couldn't help but nod secretly, feeling that it was really not impossible. The most important thing is that the formation of this thistle terrestris is too convenient, as long as it is thrown to the ground casually, no matter how it is thrown, there will be a thorn that is facing upwards, no need to arrange it in advance, just wait for the Hun army to fight with the army on their own side, and then send the cavalry to fill the iron thistle with hemp bags, open the mouth of the bag, gallop all the way, let the iron thistle retreat behind itself, and this iron thistle terrestris array can be arranged. It's quick and easy.

"It's wonderful, my lord, although we have our own wisdom, but compared to the master's clever plan, we really can't beat it" The military advisors really admired Liu Yi's wonderful plan.

Liu Yi waved his hand and said: "This is nothing, after all, not everyone can do it to implement this method to cut off the retreat of the Hun cavalry, and the Tribulus terrestris array is very simple and convenient, but if we don't have a large number of blacksmiths, and there is no iron mine not far nearby that can supply a large amount of iron ore, we have no way to implement this plan."

"Now I don't know when the Hun army will all come to the east of the river, my lord, let's order the blacksmith to start making thistle terrestris now." Lu Zhihuo jumped to his feet, ready to give the order. (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations, monthly passes,
