Rout!

The biggest rout in the history of the Rest Empire!

Rest was internally unstable and demoralized, and in the retreat of the whole army, it began to evolve from rout to rout, and it was out of control.

"Win!" Emperor Hongwu was ecstatic, and all the arrangements in the early stage were finally rewarded at this moment.

In September 213, Emperor Hongwu led 300,000 Qin troops and defeated 700,000 soldiers and horses of the Anxi Empire at Qinghu.

This battle is known as the "Battle of Qinghu" in history.

In the early stage of Emperor Hongwu, although he was on the weak side, he used tactics such as guerrilla warfare and sparrow warfare to provoke the enemy and successfully lured the enemy into the depths. Under the madness of the resting people, they finally won the Hongwu Emperor's water attack plan in the Buha River Delta.

The battle was successfully turned around and became a classic of winning more with less, so it was recorded in the history of the world's classic battles.

"Win!" Cao Cao's face trembled for a while. Originally bent on defeating the Sabbatarians, he began to be very conflicted. On the one hand, there is the joy of victory, and on the other hand, they curse the Sabbatarians for their stupidity. If he led an army of millions, he would definitely not end up like this.

"Qin Zijin has won! What should I do? "Boss Cao, who followed the pursuit of Emperor Hongwu, was unable to give up.

The first battle was decided, however, this was not the ending that Emperor Hongwu wanted.

"Thousands of miles of pursuit, attack and rest!" Qin Feng will never let go of the rest of the people. The aggressor, there must be a price.

Under this slogan, the Great Qin soldiers pursued the scattered Anxi.

However, Marshal Sirwangai quickly gave the order for the entire army to retreat, which left the Qin army without much time to encircle and suppress the enemy head-on. Even the Sabbatarians, though defeated, lost only 200,000 men. Many of these are losses from water attacks.

Due to the lack of strength of the Qin army, it was impossible to fully surround the Anxi. And because it is necessary to win the frontal battle. In order to completely defeat the enemy, Qin Feng could not avoid it. The superior forces were placed in the east. Therefore, to the west of the rear of the Sabbatarians, there were not enough forces to stop it.

After Marshal Sylva'ai retreated, he organized camel soldiers and cavalry to break through the obstruction of the 10,000 Qin troops in the rear, ruthlessly abandoned the infantry, and began to retreat at full speed.

More than 200,000 Sabbatical cavalry retreated in an organized manner, while the remaining nearly 300,000 infantry were completely dispersed in the rout. The ground for hundreds of miles was full of resting routs. But they are in the same direction. That is to go west, and return to the land of rest.

If these routs return to rest, it is believed that they will soon be organized.

In order to inflict mass damage on a large scale, thus greatly reducing the obstacle to attacking and resting. Emperor Hongwu also began to divide his troops, with a team of 100 people, a team of 1,000 people as the commander, and a team of 10,000 people as the headquarters, in the vast and boundless land in the east of the Western Regions, to comprehensively pursue and kill the scattered Sabbatarians.

Cao Cao finally played his part. He issued an edict as the king of the Western Regions, "The Sabbatarians have been defeated, and the thirty-six countries of the Western Regions have taken action to encircle and suppress the scattered Sabbatarians." ”

And Qin Feng couldn't let the rest of the cavalry retreat safely. In all, he integrated his own cavalry forces and led an army of 50,000 cavalry. Only retreating Sabbath cavalry were pursued.

During the long retreat, the camel made full use of its own fear of heat. Not afraid of thirst, the advantage of strong staying power. The camel soldiers are in the midst of a rout. Always leave the Qin army behind. And the horsemen of the rest of the people were always chased and beaten by the Qin army.

The Marshal of the Rest Empire, Silvan Ai, made a quick decision, and the horsemen scattered and retreated back to rest, so as not to be constantly broken by the Qin army that followed. Sure enough, Qin Feng was bent on destroying the main force of the 200,000 camel soldiers who were resting, and at the same time, the division of troops would also weaken the lethality of his own side.

Three days later.

In the territory of the Cheshi Kingdom in the Western Regions, on the endless Gobi, there is a depression behind a huge sand dune, where 200,000 camel soldiers rest.

The camels lay on the sandy ground and rested peacefully. And the resting soldiers, who were leaning on the belly of a camel, were all pale and listless, and their lips were cracked and pale.

In a simple tent, Marshal Hilwangai looked gloomy, and the generals sitting on the ground sighed.

An unprecedented defeat in the history of the Rest Empire, believing that upon returning to the Empire, the angry Emperor will surely tear them to pieces.

can be a general, this logic can still be deduced. Therefore, the faces of the imperial generals became even more embarrassed.

"It's not going to work!" General Maliksha stood up, looked at his colleagues, and finally looked at Silvan Ai, "Marshal, let's fight back." Emperor Hongwu's pursuers are only 50,000 people, and we still have 200,000 camel soldiers. ”

The generals immediately chimed in, pointed to their heads and said, "Yes, Emperor Hongwu here, military affairs don't understand." He dared 50,000 cavalry to chase after us 200,000. Now that his infantry is gone, it's the perfect time to turn around and strike back! ”

Silvan Ai looked at his subordinates, his eyelids jumped, the anger in his heart could not be expressed in words, he laughed angrily, and even pointed to his head, and said: "You, here, the military does not understand!" ”

The generals were stunned for a moment, and said in their hearts: "Why did it become us?" ”

Sirwanai smiled and said angrily, "You are the real idiots! Ambush, from finding an ambush location, to luring the enemy in, to another big battle, and then disengaged. This process takes three days, to say the least. He got up suddenly, and the generals also got up in a hurry.

Sirwanai walked to the tent door and pointed to the weak soldiers outside, "And our army is out of supplies. Camels can go without food or drink for a month, can a man? Yesterday there was no food and water, and if it weren't for the camels, the soldiers would have died in the desert and dried by the wind! ”

"Idiots, a bunch of idiots!" He finally said angrily.

The generals were embarrassed for a while, but in fact, they were not really idiots, they were forced by the form. If you go back like this, you will be defeated and killed.

Maliksha held on, stretched his neck and said, "You can kill camels to satisfy hunger!" ”

Silvan Ai was furious, "This Luo commander, each of them is very noble, how can he harm the most effective army in the empire for nothing." And, do you think the cunning Emperor Hongwu will really go to war with us? If he turns around and leaves, will you chase or not? If you don't chase after us, he will come back after us. ”

He roared loudly, "At that time, they were glued together, and how many camels they had to kill were wasted time. If the camels are gone, who will take you back home across thousands of miles of desert? ”

"It's ......." Maliksha hung his head. The rest of the generals immediately turned their heads to the side, looking like they had never agreed.

Silvan Ai sighed: "Instead of turning back, it is better to use this time to attack the cities in the Western Regions and seize grain and grass materials." Bring back the Empire's most elite troops safely. In this way, there will be much atonement. When he said this, he waved his hand, "Don't worry, when Your Majesty punishes the crime, Ben Shuai will do his best." ”

The generals didn't expect Sirwanai to take all the sins down, and they were moved, and they all said: "I am willing to advance and retreat with the handsome!" ”

Half a day later.

A resting detective horse wrapped in wind and sand, ecstatic into the account, "Report the ......, handsome, thirty miles ahead of you found a big river." There was a city ...... by the river. ”

"Great!" Sirwan Ai was overjoyed.

So the Sabbath man went into action.

In the evening, 200,000 camel soldiers came to the river. The environment of ancient times is different from that of later generations. The water left behind in the distant snow-capped mountains gathers into a river, and even on the Gobi, it can flow extremely far.

This river is called Jiaohe. And the city by the river is the "Yaer City" of Cheshi Country.

Hanshu. The Legend of the Western Regions said: "In the former country of the Cheshi, the king ruled the Jiaohe, and the water of the river flowed down, so it was called the Jiaohe." ”

There are abundant aquatic plants by the river, and the camels are replenished. The resting soldiers were given a chance to replenish their water, but instead of starving, the river became more and more hungry the more they drank. However, after drinking the water, I finally got refreshed.

So, Sirwangai, with 200,000 camel soldiers, began to attack Ya'er City in the Cheshi Kingdom.

As a result, the policy of Cao Cao, the king of the Western Regions, in the early stage, helped the rest of the people at this moment. Because Cao Cao firmly controlled and commanded all the soldiers and horses in the Western Regions and mobilized them in his own Loulan, there were only some security soldiers in each country. Although it is a soldier, it is the same as the official service in the Central Plains.

In the city of Ya'er in the Cheshi country, there are 500 security soldiers, how can this withstand 200,000 resting rioters.

As soon as it was dark, smoke billowed from the city.

200,000 rioters, just like devils entering the village, burning, killing and looting, the three-light policy. At nightfall, the smoke was gone, and the smoke rose. Accompanied by the cries of the people of Cheshi Country.

This night, based on the suffering of the people of Cheshi Country, the rest of the people was finally able to "rest in peace" for the night.

On the other hand, Qin Feng led his army in pursuit.

Here return to rest, thousands of miles away. As long as you catch up, entangle, and don't fight, you can starve to death if you are hungry.

At night, twenty miles east of Ya'er City, 50,000 Qin troops were encamped, and each horse was carrying supplies on its back, which could ensure the self-sufficiency of the Qin army in the short term.

In the royal tent.

Hongwu Junchen gathered around the map, and on the side stood Cao, a married woman with her hands in her sleeves.

"The front is Jiaohe, and the army is there to replenish, Mengde, Mengde!" Qin Feng finally called.

"Huh?" , the absent-minded wife Cao was shocked, "What's the matter?" ”

Emperor Hongwu threw out a parchment scroll as if he had instructed his subordinates, and said, "Where is your Great Seal of the King of the Western Regions?" Stamp, let the Ya'er City of the Cheshi Country get ready and supply the army. ”

The wife Cao's face trembled, and her heart said that my Western Regions did not fall into the hands of the resting people in the end, however, in the end, it was difficult to escape Qin Zijin's mouth. "No, this king has to find a way to escape." As he thought, he took out the eating guy from his bosom, and with a bang, he stamped a stamp on the parchment roll. (To be continued......)
