[Chapter 89: In the Hanhai Sea, the Wolf Juxu]

It should be said that Abbas was furious, because as soon as he came up, he mobilized a full 30,000 foot soldiers and launched an ant-attached siege against Feiyun Castle from four directions. And he is sober, he knows the way to attack and defend the virtual and the real.

Abbas's main attack was in two directions, one to the east and one to the west. As for the north and south sides, they are feints. But what he didn't expect was that the two main attacks could not be attacked for a long time, but the south side of the feint was about to break through.

What made Abbas even more unexpected was that the Han cavalry of Feiyun Fort actually rushed out of the fort.

A whole line of cavalry rolled out of the fort gate like a tornado, sweeping across the entire phalanx of Yue's infantry to the south.

Abbas sits in the east, and is in the rear of the military formation, so his dispatch and reaction power are not as fast as Shen Yun's. By the time he learned that the southern tower had been walled and could be unloaded on a large scale, Shen Yun had already gathered his cavalry and began to charge and kill.

And because these Yue's infantry came to attack the city, they didn't have a perfect defensive formation, and they didn't have the pikemen necessary to deal with the cavalry, so Shen Yun's rush was very refreshing! Except for the occasional untidy arrow, which would pose a little threat to the Han cavalry, all other resistances were in vain!

The Han cavalry slaughtered in all directions in the south, scattering the Yue's foot soldiers in all directions, and then completely destroying the few mobile towers, and when they retreated calmly, the cavalry sent by Abbas to support them arrived on the battlefield. However, at this time, the Han cavalry did not intend to continue to stay outside the fort, and the Han army on the fort shot their positions with bows and arrows, and the cavalry returned safely.

In this one entry and one exit, the Han army cavalry only killed more than ten people and injured seven or eight, which can be regarded as a big victory! In particular, Shen Yun, who took the lead and charged ahead, made all the Han troops admire. But Fang Cheng, who came back safely, was afraid. In that case. There is no general to adjust, Shen Yun is also stubborn, if Shen Yun dies outside the fort, it will be a big deal......

However, it was Shen Yun's entry and exit that made Abbas, who learned the news, suddenly lose his passion to continue the attack, and reluctantly ordered the temporary withdrawal of troops.

Seeing the Yue's soldiers walking backwards like the tide receding, all the Han soldiers and soldiers raised their heads to the sky and roared, ecstatic! And they all took credit for repelling the Yue Clan people this time!

The morale of the Han army soared, while the morale of the Yue rebels was much lower. As everyone knows, the wave of attacks. It was the easiest and most likely chance for the Yue Clan rebels to break through Feiyun Castle. After this ant siege, the Han army already has experience in defensive warfare, and the attack on the Yueshi people is no longer panicked, but full of the belief that our army will win! What's more, the previously used bed crossbow shooting technique, which was not smooth. After this actual battle, the soldiers became more and more proficient. After several sieges. No matter how many moving towers the Yueshi people had, they would not be able to get close to the fort wall, and they would be shot one by one by the crossbow of the bed from a hundred paces away...... Arguably, Abbas lost the most important chance to break the fort!

Historical Records? The Biography of General Wei's Hussars records, "In the fourth year of Yuanzhen, the hussar general went to the sick to lead 50,000 horsemen, and went out of Dai County for 2,000 miles...... Ji Gong Lu. Won the king of Tuntou, the king of Han and other three, the general, Xiangguo, danghu, Duwei eighty-three people, the wolf lived in Xu Mountain, Zen in Guyan. Ascend to the sea. ”

This is the origin of the allusion to "sealing the wolf". Since then, "Feng Wolf Juxu" has become the representative of the highest military merit of all soldiers and soldiers in the next two thousand years!

But this record gives three questions to future generations: "Which mountain is "Wolf Juxu Mountain"? What is "Bow Lu"? What kind of sea is "Hanhai"?

After the Han Shengzu crossed, he checked the classics of the Han dynasty and finally determined that the Wolf Juxu Mountain is the high mountain in the south of the "North Sea" (Lake Baikal). That is, the Kent Mountain in Beihai Prefecture, which was later reconquered by the Holy Ancestor Iron Horse!

And Kent Mountain is a huge mountain range, winding for more than 2,000 miles, reaching Songliao in the east and Jinshan in the west. In order to avoid the speculation and controversy of later generations on "Wolf Juxu Mountain", the Holy Ancestor directly named the highest peak of Kent Mountain as Wolf Juxu, and made a stone as a monument to pass on to future generations!

The Gonglu recorded in the "Historical Records" is a river, and "Jigonglu" is to cross a river called Gonglu. And the Gonglu River here is actually the Krulun River at the eastern foot of Kent Mountain in Beihai State.

Last question, where is the "Hanhai" in "Landing on the Hanhai"? In fact, this problem is not a problem at all for the people of the Han Empire.

"Sea" is used in ancient languages to represent vastness and does not necessarily refer to the sea. For example, "Taiyuan" means a vast and boundless plain in ancient times, but in fact Taiyuan is just a plain basin. The Central Plains is the real plain.

The "Hanhai" in "Ascending the Hanhai" refers to the vast and boundless Hangzhou-Ai Gobi at the western foot of Kent Mountain.

Hang Ai Mountain, in fact, can also be done "Hanhai Mountain", the word Hang Ai is transliterated from "Hanhai". In order to facilitate the memory of his own past life, the Holy Ancestor named this place Hangai Mountain.

In fact, the entire Beihai Prefecture is divided into east and west with Hangai Mountain and Orkhon River as the dividing line. From Hangai Mountain to the east, to the area of the Orkhon River is the Gobi, during which there is no abundant grassland, let alone high mountains and rivers, except for the north-south Orkhon rift valley, there is no characteristic landform. As for the vegetation, the land, although not yet completely desertified, is about the same. Apart from low, drought-tolerant and cold-tolerant shrubs and tenacious weeds, there is no other plant to be found within a radius of 400 miles.

Ertegan is a small village in the Gobi, not even a village, except for a few makeshift wooden huts built by the nomadic wranglers.

But it is such a small place, but now it has become an important place for the Han and the Yue people to compete for!

As the Roman god of war, Rovinis certainly has extremely keen battlefield instincts. When he learned that the marshal of the Han army had begun to move eastward, he suddenly felt irritable, and deep down he always felt that there might be changes in this long-planned siege and annihilation.

Sure enough, the vanguard of the Han army, the Feiqiwei, quickly occupied Ertegan and began to clear the Yueshi army in the Orkhon Valley. It was only then that Rovinis realized the importance of the place in Ertegon. In the previous plan, Rovinis did not fail to pay attention to Etegan - he had three legions stationed in the Orkhon Valley, and his front radiation certainly included Etegan.

But when he transferred two of the legions to besiege the Third Legion, and began to continue to surround Feiyun Castle to the west, he suddenly found out. He has lost control of the Ortegan region. The Han army keenly discovered this, and sent the most powerful flying cavalry guards to start sweeping the area and take Ertegan back into their hands.

Beihai Prefecture is a plateau, and the terrain is higher and higher the further north it goes—of course, the worse the climate and living environment are—although this altitude is gradual, and it is not obvious to those in Beihai Prefecture, it is clear that the Han army that occupied Ertegan already has a condescending advantage over the Yue army. Although the Han army was still surrounded by the Yue Clan's army, this encirclement had become fragile!

Just moved a place, and the whole situation was actually reversed by the Han army. In this regard, Congenez's attitude was to smash things in the tent again and get angry. But Rovinis stared at the sand table, showed a weird smile, nodded frequently and said with a smile: "Interesting, really interesting!" is worthy of being the marshal of the Han Empire, just moving a position makes me so passive. A military genius! I admit that you are indeed qualified to be my opponent, His Royal Highness the Great Han Duke Hu! ”

Hu Gong, who is already over fifty years old, only now does he recognize the identity of his opponent if he knows this Roman god of war. You have to jump to your feet angrily and scold "erector arrogance".

Of course. At this time, Rovinis did have the capital to say this. Because the occupation of Ertegan does not mean that the Han army will be able to win the Yueshi army, after all, after all, the Han army has fallen into a passive situation after losing the baggage logistics of the Third Army.

A month and a half has passed since the two armies fought at the end of April, and if the road is unimpeded, the news of the siege of the Han army can be transmitted back to the imperial capital. By the time the imperial capital court was arguing and it would take three months to redeploy reinforcements to save it at the earliest, Rovinis had time to play slowly with the Han army.

And will the supply of the Han army last for three months? Rovinis sneered repeatedly.

To fight a war is to fight logistics, and this sentence translated into Chinese is "the soldiers and horses go first before the grain and grass are moved". That's right. Rome's former sworn enemy of Carthage, the famous general Hannibal, and the extinct Alexander the Great of Macedon, once said, how could Rovinis not understand! This is also the reason why he is sure that he will be able to defeat the Han army in the end.

In order to ensure the final encirclement and annihilation of the Ertegan Han army, Rovinis sent messengers to gather all the Yueshi legions divided into long snakes and squeeze towards the Gobi Desert, which was not dangerous to defend.

But at this moment, Rovinis realized that there was still the existence of the nail of Feiyun Castle behind him!

So he personally wrote a letter to Abbas, hoping that he would conquer Feiyun Fort as soon as possible, and then move his army north to complete the major strategic goal of encircling and annihilating the Han Northern Frontier Front.

Until this time, Rovinis was confident in his encirclement plan.

But the ensuing evolution of the battle situation made the always confident Rovinis almost fall like Conganes......

First of all, the Yueshi Legion in the Orkhon Valley, under the continuous blows of the flying cavalry guards, gave up this important place in only three days. Then the Fifth Legion of the Han Army, which had been holding the southern end of the Baidrag River, successfully marched to Chagan Lake, and with the cooperation of the Flying Cavalry Guard, recovered some of the baggage from there - and this place, Rovinis had the Yueshi people carefully clean the battlefield, but they did not find a single hair.

What made Rovinis even more mad was that a brigade of the Flying Cavalry Guard Division actually interspersed with the eastern shore of Chagan Lake, and ran for 800 miles in two days, almost killing the Yueshi Logistics Base stationed in Chagan County. Fortunately, Rovinis was able to keep his troops in time.

After this incident, Rovinis paid great attention to his flying cavalry legion, which was praised by the Han army as "the world's first cavalry", and strictly ordered that once the Yueshi legion encountered the flying cavalry guards, it must ensure that they fought with them with superior strength, and if the troops were at a disadvantage, they were allowed to retreat or hold on. But as everyone knows, Rovinis's attention turned into panic when it was conveyed below.

Most of the people of the Yue clan were originally the original Han army, and the prestige of the flying cavalry guard was well known. Prior to this, the Yueshi people had been able to harden up their courage to touch the prestigious flying cavalry guards by defeating the Gan and Su Prefecture legions one after another, beheading three legion commanders, and defeating the third legion of the Han Dynasty at Chagan Lake.

The interspersed strike tactics of the flying cavalry guards are also becoming more and more bold and unrestrained. There was even a company of flying horsemen chasing a brigade of Yueshi soldiers. The Yue's "Long Snake Formation" had become crumbling under the repeated blows of the Flying Cavalry Guard. If it weren't for the fact that Rovinis still had the first, second, and third of the Yue Clan, the three hardcore legions that had rebelled with the puppet king of the Yue Clan from the beginning, they might have been defeated a long time ago.

Now don't talk about attacking, if you can hold this encirclement, Rovinis will shout "God forbid". It was only at this point that Rovinis sensed that this battle might be dangerous, and he remembered even more the Sixth Legion of Abbas, the prince of the Moon Clan, and the two armies around him that could be worthy of battle.

On June 10th. Rovinis wrote five letters to Abbas in a row, suggesting that he end the battle of Flycaste quickly, or send a legion to surround Flycastel without fighting, and the rest of the army rushed to join him.

And one of these five letters was actually intercepted by the Ranger Scout of the Flying Guard!

Coincidentally, it was Shen Yun's old acquaintance who intercepted the news - Liu Zhen of the First Brigade of the First Town of the Flying Cavalry Guard Division! Of course, he has now been promoted to the brigade commander of the first brigade of the first town of the former division of the flying cavalry!

Hu Gong's strategy and tactics are actually very simple, and any soldier who knows a little about military affairs can see it. But until then, it's not everyone who can do that. It's like Edison, who invented the electric light, before he came across tungsten by chance. I couldn't have imagined that this thing could be made into filament.

Of course, Liu Zhen also knew the importance of Feiyun Castle to Hu Gong's strategy this time, and also knew that Shen Yun was in Feiyun Castle. Regarding this, Hu Gong did not hide it from his subordinates, because Hu Gong also wanted to use this to put pressure on his subordinates - after all, the consequences of losing a Han marquis could be thought of by all the Han soldiers.

But what Liu Zhen didn't expect was. Shen Yun's identity doesn't seem to have been known by the Yue clan yet. This made Liu Zhen very puzzling. It stands to reason that the dark guard should have deliberately leaked this news to the Yue clan according to Hu Gong's instructions! The identity of the Marquis of Bohai of the Great Han Dynasty is the key to whether Feiyun Castle can tie up the people of the Yue Clan!

Without further ado. The Yueshi people don't know yet. Then Liu Zhen will help publicize the publicity, and everyone must know it. So, while Liu Zhen passed his decision back to the marshal's tent, he gathered his troops and horses and crossed the river from the Charkan Shahai (in the middle of the Zabkhan River, only more than ten miles away from Uriya Sutai). Then with great fanfare, in the name of "rescuing the Marquis of Bohai of the Han Dynasty", he marched towards Feiyun Castle. Along the way, the Yueshi army adhered to the military order of "outnumbered soldiers and flying horses", and did not dare to stop it slightly.

Liu Zhen was even skeptical for a while. Will he just walk under Feiyun Castle without anyone daring to stop him?

Of course, the wish is beautiful, but the reality is cruel.

When they arrived twenty miles northeast of Feiyun Castle, the Yue's army besieging Feiyun Fort began to block Liu Zhen's way. At this time, Abbas, who was busy digging up the water source of Feiyun Castle, also learned that the Flying Cavalry was heading here, so he sent people to intercept it, and at the same time accelerated the action of digging up the water source......

After confirming the news that the Flying Cavalry was indeed here to rescue the "Great Han Bohai Marquis", Abbas completely ignored Rovinis's suggestion that he should quickly solve the battle of Feiyun Castle - the Flying Cavalry Guards are here, and there is a Great Han Bohai Marquis in Feiyun Castle, it is impossible for Abbas to give up this big fat meat and not eat it, and run to gnaw hard bones!

But Abbas didn't know that Flying Cloud Castle was actually a hard bone, and it was enough to break a few of his good teeth.

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

June 18, 1003.

"Your Highness, you can't fight anymore, if you continue to fight like this, the old foundation of our Sixth Legion will be exhausted!"

In the Yue's tent outside Feiyun Castle, a middle-aged man in his forties knelt in front of Abbas with tears in his eyes, and kept saying this sentence in his mouth.

This person's name is Han Biao, and he is a Han man. So far, the name of the Moon clan has not been changed. However, his loyalty is undoubted, and he is one of the first loyal servants to follow the rebellion of Zhang Sheng, the puppet king of the Yue clan.

Abbas's face did not change, he was still indifferent, seeing this loyal servant kneeling in front of him and kowtowing, he said coldly: "Han Biao, you don't need to persuade anymore, I must capture Feiyun Castle, and Shen Yun, Marquis of Bohai, must die!" ”

Han Biao cried old tears, but he couldn't change Abbas's mind. He could only look helplessly at Carlos, the Roman staff officer beside Abbas.

Carlos also did not agree to continue to storm the Flying Cloud Castle. In fact, continuing to storm Feiyun Fort is already worth the loss, these three days of ant annexation siege, the morale of the Han army is getting stronger and stronger, but the Yue clan is losing troops and losing generals, and morale is getting lower and lower. According to preliminary statistics, the Yueshi lost more than 9,000 soldiers in the past three days, not including the wounded. And the Han army had less than two thousand damage at most. This exchange ratio is really amazing! Although it was the Yueshi people who died, not the Roman soldiers, Carlos still felt that it was too cruel, not to mention, these soldiers were the main force that His Excellency Rovinis was preparing to encircle and annihilate the Han army.

Seeing Han Biao looking at him longingly, Carlos couldn't help but take a deep breath, and said to Abbas: "Your Royal Highness, as a staff officer of the Roman mission, I have to solemnly remind you that continuing to storm Feiyun Castle is an extremely wrong military action. If you continue to go your own way, I will propose to Lord Rovinis that this Roman cooperation with your army be terminated. ”

A cold light flashed in Abbas's eyes, and he looked at Carlos coldly and said, "Is Your Excellency threatening me?" ”

Carlos was a little disheartened by him, lowered his head and said, "Don't dare to be disrespectful to Your Highness, I'm just doing what a staff officer should do!" ”

Abbas smiled coldly: "Hmph, you don't threaten me with the termination of cooperation." Haven't you heard the idiom 'riding a tiger on a tiger'? Now that you've come to this point, do you think you Rome still has a way out? In short, I have to fight this Feiyun Castle, it's useless to persuade anyone! If you don't agree, you can get out, and Your Highness will never keep it! ”

Carlos's face froze, but finally he reined in his anger, stroked his chest and saluted Abbas, "In that case, then I take my leave." Again, if Your Highness still insists on going his own way, I will propose to His Excellency Rovinis to terminate the cooperation. In addition, if this battle were to be lost due to His Highness's wrong decision, we in Rome would not be held responsible in any way - presumably His Highness has not forgotten that we are removed soldiers in the official Roman documents! There is no reason for the Han Empire to hold our Roman Empire accountable! Goodbye, Your Highness the Prince! Good luck! ”

After saying that, Carlos walked out without looking back.

Seeing that the only person who could persuade Abbas was also angry and left, Han Biao's heart was cold, and he immediately sat down on the ground.

At this time, Abbas suddenly walked to the tent and saw that Carlos had really walked away, so he hurriedly walked to Han Biao's side and said hurriedly: "Uncle Han, do me a favor." ”

Han Biao was stunned for a moment, how could Abbas at this time have the indifference and unkindness just now, his face was full of anxious expressions, and his eyes also revealed a ruthless look that he had never seen before.

"Your Highness, Your Highness? You ......" Han Biao was frightened by Abbas's change of face.

Abbas didn't have time to explain, but just whispered to Han Biao.

The more Han Biao listened, the more surprised his face became, and finally he exclaimed: "What? Arrest Lord Carlos? ”

Abbas covered his mouth and said in a low voice: "Uncle Han, you must do me this favor, after arresting him, immediately send two reliable people to secretly send him back to Dihua, my father knows what to do." Hmph, the fate of the Yue people cannot be in the hands of the Romans alone. ”

"That Flying Cloud Castle ......"

At the mention of Flying Cloud Castle, a trace of unwillingness flashed on Abbas's face, but then disappeared, and his face returned to indifference.

"Uncle Han, rest assured, after these three days of strong attack, I already understand, I will not attack again from tomorrow!" (To be continued......)
