Chapter 478: Wuhuan Meeting
Liu Yi's decision to conquer the Xianbei tribe first was right.
Because, no matter how the New Han army and the Wuhuan tribal army fought, the Xianbei tribal army would be watching from the sidelines. If the New Han Army exterminated the Wuhuan tribe and the Xianbei tribe, it would definitely be a rabbit and a fox, and the New Han Army would be particularly vigilant. At that time, it would be difficult for the New Han Army to destroy Xianbei.
Once the Xianbei tribe felt that the situation was not good, they went directly to the Linhai Snow Plain to hide, how could the Xinhan army chase after them?
When your own military strength is strong, you are naturally unwilling to fight with the enemy for time, so it is best to solve the opponent directly with a stick, and then start to rule the place.
In fact, it will come back to the question that Lewi had considered before. Once the New Han army defeated the Wuhuan tribe, the Wuhuan was wiped out. So the Xianbei tribe, watching from behind, once they are afraid? Once you see that the opportunity is wrong, what if you come directly to surrender? So what about Lewy? To accept them or not to accept them?
You must know that the aliens in the desert have indeed begun to reap the benefits of returning to the New Han Dynasty. Take this year, for example. The disease of cattle, sheep and other livestock in the desert steppe also affected the foreign tribes in the northwest desert. However, the losses of the alien tribes in the northwest desert can be controlled within a certain range, and the losses are not as large as those of the Wuhuan tribe and other tribes. Because the New Han Dynasty sent many Langzhong doctors who knew how to treat livestock in time to reduce the epidemic spread of livestock diseases for the alien races in the desert. At the very least, some problems with the hygiene of the desert aliens were taught.
Of course, there is another one that is the most important, because the alien tribes in the northwest desert have the support of the New Han Dynasty, even if their livestock are all dead due to epidemics. That's okay. At the very least, the New Han Dynasty government office was set up in their area. I won't leave them alone. If the epidemic is really severe, the government will compensate for it. There will even be food relief to help them survive this winter. After the cold winter, the government of the New Han Dynasty will also arrange for them to live, work and produce matters that will follow. It won't leave them without hope for the future. Naturally, the government of the New Han Dynasty did not do all good deeds, and now it provides help and support for the aliens in the northwest, but they owe it first. Pay it back slowly. However, for those alien tribes in the northwest desert, with the support of the New Han Dynasty government, then they will not worry too much, and they no longer have to worry about not having materials to survive the winter.
It's a guarantee. It is believed that the current life of the alien people who took refuge in the New Han Dynasty and how it is getting better day by day has already spread to the alien tribes on the grassland.
In this way, it is estimated that there are many foreign tribes. They may think that the New Han Dynasty is wronged, and ask for benefits from the New Han Dynasty in the name of surrendering to Shun. Such tribes are not absent.
The New Han Dynasty is not the China of later generations, nor is it the court of money and stupidity. For those alien tribes. The officials of the government of the New Han Dynasty naturally knew everything clearly.
For such an alien tribe. It's really easy to deal with them. For example, they were first accepted into obedience. Then, according to the policy of the new Han Dynasty, they were governed. So. When registering and registering, you can interrogate and examine the nature of the tribe. If the nature and nature of this tribe are still pure, then it is better to govern them as ordinary foreign people. But if it is those alien tribes, they are themselves some extremely bad tribes. Congratulations, they can be completely liberated.
For this, the New Han Dynasty was quite strict with foreigners. Because, the New Han Dynasty will never allow those murderous and tyrannical aliens to exist in this world.
It can be said that if those vicious and ferocious alien tribes also want to come to claim the benefits of the New Han Dynasty, then they are falling into the net.
And for those alien tribes who are not bad in nature, once they accept the rule of the New Han Dynasty, then they will no longer be able to make anything happen. Unless, if they want to rebel, otherwise, they can only obediently, learn the culture and civilization of the Han people, accept the ideological education of the Han people, and slowly sinicize from the roots.
But these, one qiē, are aimed at some foreign tribes whose tribe is not too big. And for a large tribe like the Xianbei tribe, if its tribe really submits to the New Han Dynasty when it sees that the shape is wrong, it will really bring Liu Yi a more troublesome problem and decision.
Because of the Xianbei tribe, because it is far away from the Han realm, it is separated by the Huns and the Wuhuan people. So, at least, they didn't pose any danger to the Han before this. There doesn't seem to be any grudge between the Han people and the Xianbei people. Even if there is, it is all individual, indirect.
For example, Liu Yi knew that there should be a lot of slaves among the Xianbei clan now. However, not all of these Han slaves should have been captured by the Xianbei people, and more should have been bought from the Huns and Wuhuan people.
There is no direct dispute with a foreign tribe, and Liu Yi also knows that this foreign tribe will bring great harm to the Chinese Han people in the future. If they are going to submit to the new Han Dynasty now, will Liu Yi accept it?
It must be accepted, and it is unlikely that Lewi will treat his tribe like some small tribe. Because in the place where the Xianbei tribe lives, I am afraid that very few Han people live. A small number of Han people living with their tribes, can they influence the Xianbei tribe? I can't say, but it won't be long before the Han people are turned into Hu.
Therefore, for the Xianbei people, it is naturally unacceptable, Liu Yi believes that unless their tribe is always controlled by a certain population base, otherwise, it is absolutely impossible to raise tigers. It is absolutely necessary to extinguish the scourge of the future in the cradle.
Now, Liu Yi felt that it was a better time to directly exterminate the Xianbei clan.
Because now, the New Han Army can exterminate the Xianbei people in the name of joining forces with the Xianbei army and the Wuhuan army to invade the New Han Dynasty. Of course, Liu Yi believes that this is really not because he has nothing to do and deliberately framed the Xianbei clan. Rather, the Xianbei tribe must have an agreement with the Wuhuan tribe's army to invade the Han Dynasty. has wolf ambitions for the big man.
Therefore, the Xianbei people are the enemies of the New Han Dynasty. The New Han army attacked them. Destroy them, and they will have nothing to say. Because. didn't say that their Xianbei tribe could invade the Han Dynasty. And the big man can't invade them, right? annoyed Liu Yi, Liu Yi can definitely do it, we don't use any name to destroy your Xianbei clan, we just see that you are not pleasing to the eye, and say that if you want to destroy you, you will be killed.
Liu Yi decided, and all the generals below had no objections. In order to avoid the recurrence of the previous attack on Gao Shun. Gao Shun personally led the people, and led a whole army of scout scouts to explore the northern grasslands one step earlier. One is to find out whether the fleeing Lou Ban army is really as Liu Yi guessed, and has already passed through the heavy Dà Mountain, rushing to join the division with the south of Chifeng Mountain. Another. It was for the New Han Army to attack the Xianbei tribe and spy on the military situation.
First of all, it is necessary to find out the actual location of the Xianbei tribe's assembly this time, as well as the terrain of the Xianbei tribe's assembly site, and so on. Secondly, it is better to sneak into the Xianbei camp to find out how many people there are, how many military horses there are, what their combat strength is, and so on. By figuring out this, the New Han Army can know itself and the enemy, and it can be targeted. Wiped out Xianbei in one fell swoop.
Liu Yi knew that Gao Shun was frustrated when he went out to clear the Wuhuan clan this time, and he must have held back his anger and wanted to make meritorious contributions to the New Han Dynasty. Atonement for his previous sins. So, Liu Yi didn't stop him. Just let him be careful.
Liu Yi knew that the Xianbei tribe and his tribe were not as strong as the Huns and Wuhuan people. However, on the combat effectiveness of the tribal military horses. The Xianbei tribe must be better than the Xiongnu and Wuhuan. This is an enemy that is not easy to deal with.
Now, of course. The soldiers of the New Han Army who stayed in Tianzhen and waited for the arrival of the 100,000 cavalry of the Yan clan would not be idle. Because when I arrived in this grassland, the weather changed greatly from the weather in Dahan. It was very cold, and marching in the long ice and snow in this harsh winter was a very test of the will of the New Han Army. Now, they all have to change into thicker cotton clothes to increase their protective facilities.
In addition, waiting here is also waiting for the snow on the grassland to be thicker, and when the time comes, you can ski and march. Well, some of the war horses of the cavalry of the New Han Army are southern horses, which are not cold-tolerant, and it is estimated that many war horses will be left in Tianzhen, and they will even have to rush back to Guannai. Therefore, when the time comes, the actual cavalry will not be as many as imagined.
Food, armaments, etc., each of these tasks is very important, because in this cold world, if you don't do every job seriously, when the time comes, only the soldiers of the Xinhan Army will suffer.
Consider that in the boreal forests further north, the temperature is estimated to be as low as minus 20 or 30 degrees. When the time comes, the soldiers of the New Han Army may have problems if they pee in the wild. Think about it, after a soak of urine, little JJ actually fell off and fell off his body, how terrifying is that? How to solve the problem of eating, drinking and lazing in the cold and snow is a very important matter.
Fortunately, because of the previous experience of the expedition to the Northwest Desert in the cold winter, many soldiers who participated in the expedition to the Northwest Desert will explain their experience to the soldiers who have no experience in fighting in cold places, and Liu Yi believes that the New Han Army will definitely overcome difficulties.
Let's say, that day, Lou Ban was gray, and he was unwilling to withdraw his troops to the north and retreat into the mountains.
In his heart, he really didn't want to just leave it like this. Because of this withdrawal, his strategic plan is completely finished. And the victory he painstakingly planned to defeat a new Han army seems to be of little significance.
Now, Lou Ban's heart is really a little regretful. What do you regret? He kind of regretted whether he was too eager for quick success. I regret myself, should I not attack Gao Shun's new Han army.
Lou Ban knew that because of the attack on Gao Shun's New Han army, his tribal army was exposed. In fact, he only now thinks that he should not expose his clan army too soon. He should have avoided Gao Shun's New Han Army first and hid in the shadows, until after the reinforcements of the New Han Dynasty entered Youzhou or even Liaodong, he suddenly rose up and attacked Gao Shun's New Han Army.
In fact, Lou Ban can really do it, but he can be a little more patient. Because, Gao Shun led the army out of Daijun, his plan was only to purge some Wuhuan tribes outside the Great Wall, and he didn't notice that in the mountains and forests outside the Great Wall, there was still a Wuhuan army of hundreds of thousands of cavalry.
If you want to wait for Liu Yi to enter Youzhou, exit from Shanhaiguan, and arrive in Liaodong, Lou Ban will suddenly send troops to attack Gaoshun, and then attack Kaizhen. At that time, the Xinhan army is afraid that it will be really difficult to send reinforcements to rescue Tianzhen in a short period of time. Maybe, it's impossible to say if Lou Ban can really take Tianzhen. In addition, there is also the fact that Lou Ban can completely ignore Gao Shun's Xinhan army and directly attack Tianzhen, so that the troops are sudden, I believe that Tianzhen has not been able to prepare, and Tianzhen was taken away by Lou Ban. After taking Tianzhen, it is not too late to turn back and attack Gao Shun's new Han army. Anyway, Lou Ban felt that he would be so stupid, such a good shape, that he actually wanted to take the initiative to evacuate and avoid the front of the army of the New Han Army.
I feel aggrieved. However, now he asked Lou Bing to lead the army out of the mountain to fight the New Han Army, but he didn't dare.
The main thing is that Lou Ban is now the only military horse. Ten years ago, if he had this more than 300,000 tribal army under his command, then he would be the real overlord of the grassland. But now, his more than 300,000 tribal army is really nothing.
He can't afford to lose. Well, the Xinhan army is unwilling to sacrifice and lose its own soldiers by the way, but he can't afford to lose directly. Now, in the process of attacking Tianzhen, the military horses have already lost some of them, and some of the military horses have not been able to escape this time in the retreat. In fact, there are no more than 300,000 military horses in Lou Ban now.
Fortunately, these current military horses are the elite of the Lou Ban Lao Tzu Qiu Li, and they are the old team of the Lou Ban, and their combat effectiveness is quite good. He led the 300,000 or so military horses to the foot of Chifeng Mountain, even if he couldn't force Badun to abdicate, but it was enough to fight against Badun.
After discussing with the clan leaders and generals below, Lou Ban finally decided to give up the plan to seize Tianzhen, and while the heavy snow had not completely closed the mountain, he led the tribal army through the mountain and rushed to the Wuhuan camp at the foot of Chifeng Mountain to join the army with Bundun.
For these mountains and forests, the people of the Wuhuan tribe are indeed quite familiar. They don't need to send people to explore the way at all, they will not lose their way in these vast mountains and forests, and they can find a way out.
It didn't take long for the army to cross the mountains, and after a few days, Lou Ban finally led the army to the Wuhuan camp. (To be continued......)
