Section 1340 Imperialism!
On the battlefield of Yaoyang, the war drums are soaring to the sky, and the horse's hooves are like thunder. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
At least 4,000 Hun cavalry, in front of the Han army's array, was fierce and pounced.
The crows of the Chinese army are particularly eye-catching.
"Black Crow Riding ......" Yi looked at the big man, and thought about it slightly, for this cavalry, the Han family knew very little, and even the name of its commander had not been heard, only knew that this was one of the ten thousand horsemen of the Xiongnu Shan Yu Wangting Headquarters.
And the number of 10,000 horsemen in the royal court of the Huns is as large as a cow's hair.
At its peak, there were tens of thousands of riders under his command.
Of course, it was a good year.
Nowadays, there are frequent disasters and famines, and they have been repeatedly defeated in wars with the Han army.
Although the Xiongnu were repeatedly successful in their western expeditions, wealth could not be turned into an army immediately.
Therefore, before the war, the Temple of the Son of Heaven calculated and organized the entire Lantai Shangshu and Shaofu mathematicians to calculate the strength of the Xiongnu royal court together.
In the end, the result was that the number of 10,000 cavalry should not exceed 8, 50,000 cavalry - because if this number was exceeded, the ecology of the steppe and the economy of the Xiongnu could no longer afford it.
After all, although the Xiongnu were barbaric, they could not fail to talk about the laws of nature.
Fifty thousand cavalry, his family, slaves, and livestock, this together is a cluster of hundreds of thousands of people and millions of livestock.
Such a cluster, even scattered across a vast grassland radius of hundreds of miles, would be a heavy burden.
After exceeding this number, with the current grassland and climate, it is impossible for any grassland to support so many people and animals.
Even if there were, it shouldn't be much.
The Huns were not an agrarian people, and they could cultivate by occupying a piece of land.
They are nomadic herders who are constantly on the move throughout the year, chasing grass and rainfall.
Therefore, this black crow rider can become one of the 80,000 horsemen of the Hun royal court, which shows that his lower limit is not lower than there, and the upper limit may be close to Zhelan.
In the face of such an enemy, Yizong was quite cautious.
"Order the two lieutenants of the Southern Army A and the left to contain the attacking enemy cavalry; Order the captains of the Northern Army, dismount and shoot with bows, and cover the battlefield! "Yi Zong categorically ordered to use thousands of cavalry from the north and south armies to contain the attacking enemy, which was very appropriate in Yi Zong's opinion.
"No!" Immediately a staff officer received the order, and then passed the order through the flag.
………………………………………………
On both sides of the Han army's large array, the cavalry of the northern and southern armies were in the second echelon on the left and right.
Since the Battle of Mayi, the Han army has begun to absorb and summarize the gains and losses of the Battle of Mayi, and thus started the process of professionalization of cavalry.
Within the original cavalry, the Han army now had cuirassiers, lancers, archers, rangers and dragoons.
Among them, cuirassiers and dragoons, belonged to the highly specialized and absolute elite.
Cuirassier, as everyone knows, is the world's first armored cavalry, a sharp knife on the battlefield, a sharp blade of the king's division, and a seeding machine to spread civilization and expel barbarism.
And the dragoons were cavalry that began to be trained within the Yulinwei and the Tiger Benwei by the order of the Son of Heaven himself after the Battle of Mayi.
Because of its military flag, with the Yellow Dragon as the image, it is also called the Dragoon, the Yellow Dragon Cavalry.
And from their military flags, you can know, who are they?
Infantry!
Elite infantry on horseback, designed to follow the large army for quick maneuvering.
Dragoons, who are proficient in the use and mastery of all the weapons in service of the Han army, and possess superb combat skills.
At the same time, it is also required to have the ability to go into battle with the breastplate.
They were the shield of the cuirassiers, the hope of the Han army to control the steppe in the future.
After all, the cuirass is not only demanding on the source of soldiers, but also extremely expensive.
Even now, a cuirassier is almost a pile of gold if you count his training expenses and armament.
On average, each cuirassier now costs at least half a million dollars.
Even with the financial and tax power of the Han family, it can't afford to support too much.
And the dragoons were cheap.
As long as it is a war horse, it can be used as their riding horse, and it does not need too much steel to arm them.
Issue a Mo knife or stuff a strong crossbow, give a shield, and they can go into battle.
When encountering an enemy, you can immediately form a battle cluster with the cuirass as the core.
As long as there are enough war horses, the Han army can pull out 100,000 or hundreds of thousands of dragoons.
Even dragoonized all the infantry.
And for the Han army, it is the sound of heaven.
Even, as a result, the Han army's Yu Linwei and Hu Benwei opened the era of infantry and cavalry coordination.
However, at the moment, the idea is still in the experimental stage.
And because of the lack of horses, even for horses.
Therefore, for the time being, dragoons only appeared in the garrisons of Guanzhong, such as Yulinwei, Hubenwei, the northern and southern armies, the Thornmen army, and the Bashang army.
On this expedition, the two captains of the Northern Army led by the righteous column were all dragoons.
At this moment, hearing the order, these soldiers standing under the banner of the Yellow Dragon immediately began to prepare for battle.
On the side of their ranks, on those who were on him, a Mo knife was unloaded, and a strong crossbow was distributed.
There were even a hundred and ten craftsmen who accompanied the army, took out a large number of parts, and assembled four bed crossbows on the battlefield in an instant.
Immediately, there were soldiers who began to wind up these terrible weapons, sharp and huge arrows, pointing directly at the incoming Hun cavalry.
Thousands of crossbowmen were all half-crouched on the ground, checking their crossbow machines, and three hundred archers lined up in front of the crossbowmen, their longbows slightly upturned.
The Mo sword soldiers erected their Mo swords, silently followed the officers, and walked down the hillside in a row, coming behind the shield wall.
Dozens of cavalry cavalry passed through these ranks, and one by one Sima pulled his throat and asked loudly: "Gentlemen, who are we?" ”
"Dragoons!"
Whether it was a sword soldier, a crossbow soldier or a craftsman, they all held their heads high and replied loudly.
"Dragoons, what a job!" Sima asked loudly.
"We are the shield of the Son of Heaven!"
"We are the swords of the summers!"
Some soldiers began to sing the military song of the dragoons: "Last night I dreamed of Muye, Zhou Gong stroked my top, tied my hair and set up a crown......"
Immediately, a chorus was drawn: "My husband should be in serious danger, but I am not mistaken because of the Confucian crown...... A call for dragons to ride millions and sweep away the ...... of the world."
The chorus was so loud that even the righteous commanders in the Chinese army listened carefully.
"This dragoon song is too popular...... a civilian officer muttered slightly.
Yi Zong was very happy to hear it, glanced at him, and said, "What do you know?" It's good to be popular, but if it weren't, how could the soldiers understand? ”
The most inspiring words in the world have never been those articles that are crepe, quote, and all kinds of strange words - these articles are now lying in the Shiqu Pavilion and moldy!
So what is it that is known today?
The whole world is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's minister!
This sentence is now known to three-year-old children.
Haven't you seen that over the years, the edict of the Son of Heaven, if it is an edict that clearly orders the world, is it also very popular?
Just as the year before last, the Son of Heaven issued an edict promulgating the law of peace, and the first sentence of the edict said--I heard the Taigong said: The world is full of people, and the world is thick, and one person is reasonable......
Look at how popular this is, even a peasant who has not read a book knows what the Son of Heaven means!
Thinking of this, Yi Zong ordered: "Command the whole army: the whole world is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's minister, the king, and the son of heaven!" Where the boats and cars go, where the people go, although the barbarians are barbarians, they are also the people of the Son of Heaven! Today's Ji Congee clan is quite leading the people of the Son of Heaven and not listening to the Son of Heaven, this is a big crime! If you are condemned to heaven, there is no prayer! If the subjects of the Huns, especially those who are familiar with the righteousness, know the way back, kneel on the ground and ask for surrender, they can avoid death! ”
This order was immediately executed.
More than 20,000 people of the Han army immediately shouted in unison: "The whole world is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's minister, the king, the son of heaven!" Where the boats and cars go, where the people go, although the barbarians are barbarians, they are also the people of the Son of Heaven! Today's Ji Congee clan is quite leading the people of the Son of Heaven and not listening to the Son of Heaven, this is a big crime! If you are condemned to heaven, there is no prayer! If the subjects of the Huns, especially those who are familiar with the righteousness, know the way back, kneel on the ground and ask for surrender, they can avoid death! ”
………………………………
The sound of more than 20,000 people shouting in unison must be described to show how powerful such a sound is.
Even the legendary Drum of the Ox is probably nothing more than that.
Naturally, the Huns were also frightened by this momentum.
"What are the people of the Han Dynasty talking about?" Lan Zhiye asked.
Immediately, a nobleman who was proficient in Chinese explained to Lan Zheye, and then said resentfully: "Master, this Han Dynasty person is arrogant and rude, and he actually claims that my people of the Great Huns are also the people under the rule of his emperor!" It's hateful! ”
When Lan Zheye heard this, his face changed greatly, and he scolded: "Han Dynasty people! It's too much of a deception! ”
This is already an insult to him and his army, as well as to the entire Xiongnu Empire!
Moreover, the reasons and excuses of the Han Dynasty made his hairs stand on end.
Is there any reason left?
According to the Han Dynasty, is it true that in this world, as long as there is sunshine, living people, and land, even if they are in the vast ocean, and the wild people who are 100,000 miles away are also the subjects of their emperor and the place where they rule?
Even the old Shangshan didn't have such great ambitions back then!
But how do they know that this is exactly the political correctness and traditional virtue of the Han family since ancient times.
The whole world is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's minister.
Yidi barbarians have to kneel down to greet Wang Shi and obediently accept the teachings of Chinese civilization.
Those who are not convinced will all be killed by the whole family!
Three kings and five emperors, it is better to follow, three generations of dozens of kings, even if it is the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the Lile conquest comes from the princes, and the princes are the same.
Otherwise, do you think that the Dongyi Hundred Tribes, the dog Rong Baidi, hanged himself obediently or took the initiative to relocate to the deep mountains and old forests and hide in the desert?
Now, Yizong has just further sublimated this concept and put it forward nakedly!
And this is exactly what imperialism is typical of and what it does.
What I said is right, my rules are universal values!
Wait for the scum, kneel down and listen to the voice of the world. (To be continued.) )
