Chapter 1280 Battle of the Valley (1)
On the seventeenth day of the summer and fifth month of the sixth year of Yuande, countless people came and went in the Weiyang Palace, sending a large amount of intelligence and information into the palace, and passing on orders one by one. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
The entire Han Dynasty's imperial war machine has been fully activated by now.
This terrifying monster has delivered thousands of orders to various counties in the past ten days alone.
It also coordinated the human and material resources of the local grassroots government that spanned 3,000 miles.
Such efficiency has reached the peak of the classical era.
Even, it has surpassed the efficiency of the mobilization of the Qin people during the battle of Qin and Zhao Changping!
"Your Majesty, this is the report just sent by the Prime Minister's Mansion......" Ji Di almost trembled and read a freshly baked report: "Since His Majesty's order, the Prime Minister, the Imperial Historian and the Shaofu, the Imperial Servant, the Lou Chuan, all the ministers have worked hard to do the king's affairs and worked hard in the world......"
Ji Di licked his tongue, and then reported: "So far, the prime minister has ordered the nineteen warehouses to mobilize 300,000 stone of grain to supply the roads of the Flying Fox Army and the Righteous Column...... Shaofu ordered more than 80 salt and iron officials to mobilize tens of thousands of stone ......"
"The servants of the Imperial Servants urgently ordered the county and the country to mobilize 150,000 horses and 30,000 ox carts......"
"Lou Chuan ordered Jiangdu, Jiaodong, Jiaoxi, and Andong to mobilize 30 Fu ships, and hundreds of Lou ships, but there was no calculation...... The amount of grain and grass transported has reached 800,000 stones, thousands of people, thousands of horses and vehicles! ”
"In addition, the unauthorized power of the counties along the way, in seven days, Pingjia grain 200,000 stones, fish and salt 3,000 stones, to fund the army!"
With Ji Di's words, Liu Che seemed to see the map hanging on the wall, and instantly came to life.
The whole country, like a machine, is driven by the gears, and it is spinning rapidly.
Thousands of officials, like the internal control elements of a machine, transmit orders to various places, even kiosks.
Countless people, carrying grain, oil, salt, wine, and meat, waited in the places where the armies had to pass.
Pots of hot soup and pots of rice have been prepared.
And the power of the salt pans, horse farms and pastures, the local government warehouses, and even the merchants of the market along the way were mobilized by order of the state.
As for the middle of the sea, it is a magnificent scene.
Thousands of sails race, thousands of ships set out together, braving storms and bad sea conditions, building ships and ships, treading the waves, splitting the waves, risking all kinds of dangers, a large number of materials, from Qilu and Jiangdu to Yanji and Liaoxi.
Such mobilization efficiency and high speed of operation are close to the level of the later eighteenth century.
With this efficiency, the Huns are already bound to lose!
You must know that with such efficiency, the Flying Fox Army has advanced hundreds of miles in the past seven days, crossing from Taihang Mountain to Daijun.
The Righteous Column Department, like a sharp arrow, leaped over the thousand-mile road from Guanzhong to Shangdang in six days, marching more than 150 miles a day on average!
This is the victory of the system, the victory of civilization, and the greatest embodiment of the gap in national strength between Han and Hungary.
Now, the Xiongnu no longer have to face the power of a county or a place in the Han Dynasty.
It is now facing the roar and roar of nearly 60 million people in more than 70 counties in China!
In the face of this power, not to mention the Xiongnu, even the Mongol Empire at its peak, it had to kneel down and sing about conquest!
Liu Che knew very well what was using and dominating a force.
It is the tens of thousands of examination scholars since Yuande and hundreds of thousands of veterans scattered in the grassroots pavilions of the county.
In particular, the thousands of wounded soldiers in the Battle of Mayi played a pivotal role in this mobilization.
At most, these are just wandering disabled veterans, dragging their crippled bodies and running around the village pavilion.
Before the army arrived, the roads were repaired, drinking water and food were prepared, and the bridges were strengthened and repaired.
This allows the army to pass directly without a pause.
And the performance of the Taifu Yamen this time is even more amazing!
At dozens of intersections and transit points along the way, they prepared a large number of horses that had been fed food and salt water, so that the light cavalry of the Han army could move forward without considering the endurance of the horses.
So much so that the vanguard light cavalry of the Flying Fox Army even set a terrible record of marching more than 200 miles in one day and night!
Without railways and highways, this record is unlikely to be broken again.
And the current Huns are undoubtedly tragic.
Because it's about to confront one of the most powerful, terrifying, and efficient war machines ever built on the planet.
It's likely to be spooked silly by this terrible monster!
However, before the Huns were scared stupid, the entire upper echelons of the Han family were already scared stupid.
Even Prime Minister Zhou Yafu couldn't believe that today's Han dynasty already has such strength and physique.
You must know that seven years ago, when Wu Chu rebelled, the manpower and material resources that the Han family was able to mobilize and mobilize at the first time were only limited to the Guanzhong and Sanhe regions.
Now, however, this mobilization system has spread throughout the north, and even into the southern counties -- within two days of receiving the order from the Louchuan Yamen, the Qilu, Wuchu region reported that they had organized a total of more than 2 million stone of grain and grass, and sent the first batch of 500,000 stone to various military ports.
Especially in the Qilu area, where the examination scholars are dominant, this phenomenon is the most significant!
The high-level officials of the Han family never thought that after the forces of the world were mobilized, they could have such terrifying power!
"I'm afraid that in the future, the Son of Heaven will be angry, ambush millions of corpses, and bleed and drift, which is no longer a legend, but will really become a reality......" Many people watched all this happen with excitement and fear.
The power of the country is both shocking and terrifying.
Everyone knows that from now on, there is no power in this world that can stop the Han Empire from dominating the world.
With such power, China's domination of the world and the control of the world is no longer a dream, but a reality!
But this also means that the authority and power of the Han Emperor no longer have the means to suppress and control.
This made countless people's hearts tremble and tremble.
Even Ji Di couldn't help but tremble and be shocked!
Even Liu Che was shocked, he himself couldn't imagine that such a monster would appear in the system of the examination of the examiners and the veterans' pavilion.
Liu Che knew even more clearly, what was the name of this monster?
Militarism!
Militarism beyond question!
What is militarism?
It's everything for the sake of war, everything for the sake of war!
It is the most hated product of Confucianism, and the monster created by the Legalists, from Shang Jun to Qin Shi Huang, is only a rudimentary terrifying demon.
It brings death, sows panic, and creates war.
And now, this monster has gradually grown up.
With terrible steps, salivating, wanting to touch the world.
The most terrifying thing about this monster is its infection speed, since Shang Jun changed the law in just 20 years, the Qin people have changed from the former broiler, everyone saw everyone bullied, and even Hangu Pass was lost to the country of tigers and wolves that shocked the world and the six countries panicked.
Inch by inch, desire is difficult to fill, these famous idioms are used to describe Qin's terrible.
The only thing that reassures Liu Che is that Chinese-style militarism, although in form and greed, is the same as the militarism of the European continent in later generations.
However, due to the particularity of Chinese culture and the particularity of Chinese society and environment, it can still retain some warmth or tenderness.
Just like the Qin Empire, although the world is afraid, the six countries are terrified.
But in the village pavilions within the empire, the lives of the common people are still the same.
Although the Qin law is strict, there are also humanized parts.
For example, the well-known distinction between public and non-public notices illustrates a lot.
Therefore, now, Liu Che doesn't need to worry that this monster will turn against his own people.
And for the time being, the world is also very vast, and there are enough nations and people to provide nourishment and supplies for this monster to make it grow.
Moreover, in order to prevent this monster from being a friend or a friend, Liu Che has also made a lot of efforts.
Thinking of this, Liu Che asked, "How is the situation of Yang Creation now?" ”
"Your Majesty, in the early hours of this morning, I just received a report that the county guard of Shanggu County has ordered that the army of the eastern governor of Shanggu County has been transferred to the front line to replace the ......Lou Fu army," Ji Di replied.
"Good!" Liu Che nodded, in the current strategy of the Han family, attacking the west and defending the east is the main tone.
After eating the Xiongnu army that fell into Kou in Shanggu County, the army then turned its guns and divided and surrounded the main Xiongnu forces in Youbeiping-Yuyang and other places.
That is, to concentrate superior forces and destroy the living forces of the Xiongnu.
Under the guidance of this strategy, Yuyang and Youbeiping will be under extremely high pressure, and they will need to hold the defensive line for at least half a month, or even a month, to wait for the enemy in Shanggu to be cleared.
And at the moment, Upper Valley is undoubtedly the focus of the war.
In the case that the Flying Fox Army, the Yizong Department and the reinforcements of the Zhao State did not arrive, the Lou Fu Army and the county soldiers of Shanggu County would have to fight and entangle with the Xiongnu army, and also try their best to induce the Huns to penetrate deep into the Han territory.
At the same time, we must also ensure that we cannot lose those important cities on our side, especially not let the Xiongnu open the road to Yanzhao!
The task is, of course, daunting!
………………………………
And at this moment, on the Great Wall of the Sun, the bloody battle has been going on for several days.
In the past five days, the Huns have launched more than a dozen terrible raids.
They used Lou Fu Nu and Hun Evil Nu as the vanguard to attract the attention of Lou Fu's army, and then suddenly launched a fierce attack from both flanks.
The Great Wall of the Sun is crumbling and almost undefensible.
However, the Han army has also completed its mission and tasks, winning valuable time for the evacuation and evacuation of the people in the rear.
"Prepare to abandon the Great Wall and retreat into the ...... of Fuyang," Lou Fu General Guan He said to his generals: "In the past few days, all of you have worked hard, but I assure you that our sacrifice and perseverance will not be fruitless......
"The latest intelligence shows that the main force of the Flying Fox Army has arrived in Daijun to participate!" Guan He said excitedly: "The reinforcements led by the Che Cavalry General also crossed Zhangshui yesterday and entered Julu County!" ”
"Hooray!" The officers of the Lou Fu Army and the Shanggu County Army celebrated one after another.
The arrival of the Flying Fox Army undoubtedly reassured people.
This powerful main force of the Han army is undoubtedly enough to change the situation on the battlefield!
However, few people have noticed, why did the Flying Fox Army run to join the alliance?
It's not the place to come to the Upper Valley, it's the opposite - it's the way out of the valley!
……………………………………………………
Outside the city, Guo Mao stood on a high platform, inspecting his army.
When he set out from the Flying Fox Pass, the entire army of the Flying Fox Army only had 14,000 cavalry, but now, the army in front of him already had a combat strength of 21,000 cavalry!
Such a force, placed in the participating areas, is simply crowded by people and horses, and the battle flag is like a cloud, covering the sky and the sun!
"Have you brought food and water and cheese?" Guo Mao asked the other divisions who were responsible for preparing supplies for the army.
"Returning to the general, our army has enough food, drinking water, cheese, and wheat ......cakes for three days of soldiers and horses," replied a Sima of the other department.
"Good!" Guo Mao nodded with satisfaction, and asked the officials sent here by the Shenhe County Commander and the Lord Lieutenant beside him: "Has the road been cleared?" ”
"Don't worry, the general, as soon as we get the general's notice, we will immediately start to clear the road to ensure that the general's headquarters can all get out of the jam within one day!" Yang Ke raised his head excitedly.
"Good!"
Guo Mao waved his hand and ordered in high spirits: "Order all departments, immediately get out of the plug!" ”
"No!" One by one, the captains immediately answered, and then the war drums sounded, all the gates of the city were opened, and the railings of the roads were removed.
The various units of the Flying Fox Army, under the guidance of light cavalry and scouts, began to leave the fortress in an orderly manner.
"Pass the order to the cuirassiers in the rear, let them go up the Sangganshui, go to Fuyang in Shanggu County, and wait for the general of the chariot!" Guo Mao turned over and gave his last order before leaving the block!
Compared to the speed of the main force of the Flying Fox Army, the heavy cuirass troops were obviously a group of snails, and they were all still in the Yangyuan area......
However, the good news is that in the Sanggan River area, the magistrate of Daijun has urgently requisitioned merchant ships and local boats to Yangwon.
In this way, the heavy equipment of the cuirassiers could be transported by water to Fuyang.
Although they could not be relied on in the battle out of the fortress, when the main force of the Che cavalry general arrived in Fuyang, they could become the Chinese army of the Han army.
The cuirassier unit of the Flying Fox Army, a total of two commanders, two thousand horsemen.
Although compared to the four thousand cavalry elites of Yu Linwei and Hu Benwei, both training and actual combat experience are greatly insufficient.
But in the end, it is also a cuirass, which is enough to play the role of a mainstay on the battlefield.
As for the goal of more than 20,000 horsemen under the command of Guo Mao?
Of course, it is the logistics supply base of the Hun cavalry who entered Koushanggu County!
Just like the Hosolius Battalion did in the Battle of Mayi, they took their logistics base!
The difference with the battle of Mayi is that this time, the Han army is out of the fortress, once it can end the logistics base of the Hun cavalry on the road of Shanggu County, then the Hun cavalry that has now entered the Great Wall will immediately face the crisis of food shortage.
