May of the sixth year of Yuande is destined to be recorded in history forever. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

For, for the first time in this month, the Han family did it, and within ten days, it transmitted the orders of the state from the capital to any region it wished.

From the beginning of May, when Chang'an received the report from Yanmen, by the middle of May, Chang'an's orders were issued to the Flying Fox Army, including the Flying Fox Army in Taihang Mountain, the Louchuan Yamen in Qilu and even in Jiangdu, Shanggu County, Yuyang County, Youbeiping County, Handan City and Jicheng, and also received orders successively.

Even the city of Hinchua and Pyongyang, which were far away in Andong, were given orders one after another.

Immediately, the huge war machine began to turn.

One hundred years after the battle of Qin, Zhao and Changping, the system of general warfare came into play in China again.

Moreover, the scale and scope of influence far exceeded the battle of Qin and Zhao that year.

In the ocean, the huge fleet, raising the sails, lined up in a huge column, carrying hundreds of thousands of stones of grain and grass, along the coastline, all the way to fight the wind and waves, treading the waves, in just ten days, the first batch of 100,000 stone of military rations from Qilu has been unloaded in Quanzhou Port, at the same time, there are more than 2,000 sailors with the ship and the Qilu local rangers, heroes composed of the righteous army landed here. (Hanquanzhou is near today's Jinwuqing, not Quanzhou, Fujian)

In the military port in the Andong area, rows of soldiers of the Escort Army were already lined up in a neat queue and boarded the ship one after another.

And in the inland city of Handan, the soldiers of Zhao have been assembled.

As for Shanggu County, Yuyang County, and Youbeiping County in Biansai, they have entered a state of war in an all-round way and are waiting for them solemnly.

This is truly an unprecedented miracle.

It is also a landmark event that marks the Han dynasty's full entry into the era of militarism.

But at this time, no one cares about these things.

Everyone's eyes widened and they held their breath as they stared at the northern steppes.

Scouts and intelligence officers, don't let them out.

Many people went hundreds of miles deep into the hinterland of the steppe to find out the whereabouts of the main force of the Xiongnu.

Finally, on the 14th day of the fifth month of the 6th year of Yuande, a Han army scout finally brought back the exact information of the main force of the Xiongnu back to the Great Wall.

This is a scout who set out from the wolf storm in Shangjun and returned after going deep into the grassland for more than 400 miles.

"The scale of captives is boundless, I'm afraid the number is far more than 100,000!" Shangjun County Shouwen sighed: "There are eleven Huns observed by the scouts alone, and there are four that have been identified so far!" ”

"The headquarters of King Ligu of the Right Valley, the headquarters of Shan Yu, and the headquarters of King Zuoxian and the headquarters of the Lan family!"

"Report the intelligence to Chang'an immediately!" Wen Fu didn't dare to slack off at all, and hurriedly said.

Everyone knows that I am afraid that the Han-Hun is about to break out in the largest war since the Battle of Pingcheng!

Moreover, this war may determine the future of the world!

The Huns almost came to the nest this time, and I am afraid that they want to finish their work in one battle!

Two days later, Shangjun's report arrived at Liu Che's desk.

Holding the report from Shangjun, Liu Che breathed a long sigh of relief and said: "I want to thank Ji Xin, if it weren't for his pigeon technique, I'm afraid my Han family would suffer a loss this time!" ”

Without carrier pigeons, Liu Che would not have been able to pass on his orders so quickly to the armies and fleets scattered all over the world.

In particular, Qilu's fleet and Anton's army, if the order was issued from Chang'an according to the standards of the past, within a month, the local army and fleet did not get any news at all.

And a month later, the daylilies are cold!

And with this carrier pigeon, although it is still relatively slow, it can finally get ahead of the Huns and pass the order to the side stopper.

In this way, at least, the Han army in Shanggu and other places will not be suddenly attacked.

The steppe cavalry, having lost the suddenness of its strategy, had no superiority in equipment and combat power.

What else to win?

But......

Judging from the report of Shangjun, the number of troops of the Huns greatly exceeded Liu Che's previous judgment.

"Xia Yi ......" Liu Che looked at Guiyi Shan Yu, who had been nodding in front of him, and asked, "How many of the ten thousand horsemen of the Hun royal court are there?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, as the minister knows, the pseudo-single is in his royal court, and he is placed on the left and right big households and the left and right generals, each receiving 10,000 horses, and Shan Yu himself will receive another 30,000 horses, totaling 70,000 horses!"

"In the headquarters of King Zuoxian, there are another 40,000 horsemen, a total of 110,000 horsemen!"

"His right virtuous king originally had 40,000 horsemen, but His Majesty Tianwei broke his 20,000 horsemen in Mayi, and the minister also brought 10,000 horsemen to righteousness, and the remaining 10,000 horsemen may not be able to use it......"

"As for the left and right Gu Li kings, there are two headquarters and ten thousand horsemen each!"

"The main force of this Hun headquarters is also!" Xia Yi replied: "The rest of the left and right big pawns and Outuo, the second ten thousand horses, the Lan clan, the Huyan clan and the Xu Bu clan ten thousand horses, are all other departments!" ”

Liu Che listened, but was a little surprised.

The strength of the Xiongnu Empire is so strong, it is indeed worthy of being a formidable opponent in the struggle with the Han army for hegemony in Northeast Asia!

Judging from the data confessed by Xia Yi, the Xiongnu alone has 190,000 cavalry, and the total strength of its headquarters alone is probably as high as 120,000 to 140,000 cavalry.

If other cavalry is included, there are at least 250,000 available troops.

The rest of the vassals and fetters can also draw the same forces when they are idle.

400,000 strings, it's really not bragging!

Fortunately, before today, through the two major battles of Mayi and Gaoque, the Han army basically eliminated and defeated the main force of the Xiongnu in Munan, and cut off the three major thugs that it relied on to dominate the world.

The Xiongnu lost hundreds of thousands of people and millions of livestock.

Otherwise, I'm afraid the power of the Huns will be even stronger!

Thinking of this, Liu Che asked: "Based on what Qing has seen, how many enemies should be there this time?" ”

Xia Yi thought for a moment and replied, "As far as the minister knows, all the tribes in the Munan region currently have less than a million livestock!" Even if the fake Shan Yu draws livestock from Hexi Rouge Mountain, Qilian Mountain, and Junji Mountain, it can only transfer about 500,000 at most, and if this is calculated, the fake Shan Yu can bring up to 200,000 people to commit crimes! ”

Liu Che listened and nodded, Xia Yi is now tied to the Han family, and it is impossible for him to lie about this matter.

Moreover, he should be telling the truth.

Judging the strength of the Xiongnu from the number of livestock is indeed an extremely important reference index.

In that year, in the Battle of Maling, Sun Bin once used the strategy of reducing the focus to induce the Wei army to advance.

This illustrates the importance of food to the army from another aspect.

"200,000 ......" Liu Che smiled and said, "How many people are there who can fight?" ”

Like the Central Plains Dynasty, in fact, nomads carry a large number of non-combatants with them every time they fight.

For example, shepherd slaves, horsemen, and all kinds of men, these people are not low.

After all, the army is not just about fighting.

"About 1230,000 ......," Xia Yi replied.

"Oh......" Liu Che nodded, his expression became serious, twelve or thirty thousand cavalry! The warlord is crazy!

Since the Battle of Pingcheng, the Huns have never gathered such a powerful legion!

It's not that it can't be assembled, but that so many troops are gathered, and the sequelae are too serious.

Not to mention, the number of young and strong men in the population of the Huns is already small, and if you take so many away at once, the entire headquarters will be empty.

Even if you win, what can you do?

After returning home, countless people will like to be fathers, they will be nobles, and they will also have green grass!

In order to prevent him from being a father and raising other people's children, all the newborns of the Huns will be drowned this year!

This alone will kill the Huns!

Not to mention, the military minister took away so many people, what should he do with his lair?

I'm afraid all kinds of careerists will not be able to hold back!

In that year, Mao Dun and the Han family fought in Pingcheng, but the backyard caught fire, and the Yueshi people made a comeback, recaptured Hexi, and threatened the story of Qilian Mountain and Rouge Mountain, did the Huns forget?

"If Lao Shangshan Yu knew that he had given birth to such an arrogant and stupid son, would he crawl out of the grave in anger?" Liu Che said with a smile.

For such a reckless action of the military minister, Liu Che has several ways to make him die!

One of the most ruthless ways is to simply order the abandonment of the defensive line, take away all the people and soldiers, burn all the cities, and clear the wilderness.

Although this is a seven-wound fist, it hurts yourself before hurting the enemy.

However, this is a strategy that can be used to anger and mad military ministers.

If you think about it, the military ministers are all 8bb, and the whole family has flowed in waves.

Strategically, it doesn't matter if you give up a sub-mineral.

And the military ministers and the Huns will pay a heavy price for this!

Perhaps, the entire Xiongnu Empire will collapse because of this!

However, Liu Che didn't want to do this, not because he was arrogant, but because he knew very well that this was a shortcut for the Han family to quickly solve the problem of the Huns!

As long as this battle is won, then the ruling order of the Xiongnu will fall apart, the grassland tribes will rise up, and the kingdoms of the Western Regions that were once ruled and enslaved by the Xiongnu will break away from the control of the Xiongnu.

In this way, even if the Huns can survive, I am afraid that they are insignificant, and they can no longer be called kings and hegemons.

The Han army, on the other hand, can gain a great advantage through this battle - at the very least, the south of the Munan can be handed over, and even maybe, Hexi will look at the wind and surrender.

Just like what Huo Qubing did in history after the battle of Rouge Mountain, he was invincible all the way, and the Xiongnu tribe looked down on the wind, so he sealed the wolf and lived in Xu Mountain, almost making the Xiongnu collapse!

Now, however, it is different.

The two battles of Mayi and Gaoque caused the Xiongnu to lose hundreds of thousands of people, which was already broken.

If the main force fails again this time, it will be a copy of the decisive battle in Mobei.

After the decisive battle of Mobei, the Xiongnu were able to survive because the Yin Zhixian of the time could endure it, and the Xiongnu could firmly control the Western Regions and constantly suck blood.

But now, Liu Che won't give him this chance!

As long as the Huns are defeated, then the thousands of miles of grassland between the Great Wall and the Hanhai Sea will become a sad road for the Huns.

Liu Che will shine the blood of the Huns on this road!

Let them kneel down completely from now on and surrender to China!

…………………………

The guarantee will be done first, and then it will be calculated and added~

Last time it was 4200 votes, and now it's 4511 votes, in other words, I still need to add a more chapter~ and then see how many votes there are today!

Whoosh! (To be continued.) )
