Section 1039 The decision of Hu Yan to slaughter
In the fifth year of Yuande, in the autumn and September (thirty). Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
On the last day of the fifth year of Yuande, Zengshan Pass was covered by a thick fog.
Zhidu's mood, like this fog, was extremely gloomy.
Yizong is out of the customs first!
This is simply bad news for Zhidu and his army!
The Righteous Column Department was the first to go out of the jam and fired the first shot.
This means that the Huns now know that the Han army is out of the fortress!
This means that the Zhidu Department will face the Hun cavalry that has been mobilized, ready to go, and has entered a state of war!
The Huns were condescending, which was enough to pose a serious threat to the Zhidu department.
Because, starting from Shangjun and going to Heyin, geographically speaking, the Han army was from the bottom up, crossing mountains, rivers and swamps!
From low latitudes, reverse push the enemy at higher latitudes.
The geographical disadvantage alone is enough for a person to eat a pot!
The Huns could completely occupy the advantageous geography and attack the Zhidu Department from a high position.
This is also the reason why the Zhidu Department decided before the war that it must seize Heyin.
Heyin can not only cut off the connection between Gaoque and Ziling, but also allow the Han army to have a foothold, a foothold that is no longer subject to geographical disadvantages.
However, now the righteous column is the first to send troops.
Then, the problem of Heyin, the Huns will definitely pay attention.
The Huns will definitely send troops to occupy Heyin.
And for the Zhidu Division, this means fighting a tough battle!
A tough battle with bayonets and naked hand-to-hand combat!
The Huns, who occupy a favorable position, will become more than twice as difficult!
It's just that......
Zhi Du sighed.
Yizong has sent troops out of the country, can he still use a rope to drag people back?
The only way to do this is to recognize the facts and accept the status quo.
"Immediately convene all the officers of the army and above to come to the Chinese military office to discuss the matter!" Zhidu immediately ordered that the middle and senior generals of the whole army be summoned to a meeting.
The Yi Zongbu and Cheng Buzhi went out of the jam, completely disrupting Zhidu's plan.
Therefore, the march of the Zhidu Department must be thoroughly revised.
However, there is one thing that cannot be changed.
That is, before the fourth day of the fourth day of the first month of the sixth winter of Yuande, the Zhidu Department must arrive in Heyin and enter the war.
This is a military order!
It is also an order of the Son of Heaven!
The Han army, like the Qin army, does not care about any objective reasons, let alone considers what reasons.
No general, no army, can rush to the predetermined battlefield at the predetermined time.
That's sin!
Those who miss the deadline will be beheaded by the Lord!
All officers above Sima level will be punished!
This system, though rigid, is the truth and order that is now recognized by the whole world.
Now, it's only five days.
Within five days, Zhi Du not only had to thoroughly review his operational arrangements and plans and readjust his troops, but also arrived at the predetermined battlefield within the predetermined time.
It's certainly difficult.
However, in Zhidu's eyes, difficulties are never a reason.
Because, there is always a solution and a solution to the problem.
The key is only whether people are willing to use their brains and sweat to solve problems.
On that day, Zhi Du discussed with dozens of Sima lieutenants in the official office of Zengshan Pass for a whole day, and even this military meeting was held until midnight.
……………………………………………………
It was also on this day that Hu Yan Dangtu in Gaoque City got the news that the Han army was out of the fortress.
In fact, the intelligence of Hu Yan Dangtu has been lagging behind for a long time.
Righteousness is out of the clouds, and Cheng doesn't recognize Xinglesai.
The two armies were mighty, covering the sky and the sun, and the dust and movement that were rolled up could be clear even to people dozens of miles away.
Along the way, countless Xiongnu tribes fled in despair, or happily surrendered to the Han army.
A day after the Han army left the fortress, before Ziling, there were no tribes.
All the tribes living in this area, a radius of hundreds of miles, had only two choices: flee or submit.
Tribes that neither flee nor submit have no second way to go except destruction.
With so many tribes, it is natural to bring the news to Gaoque.
When Hu Yandang heard the news, he immediately summoned some fleeing herdsmen and questioned them carefully.
Then, these frightened and depressed tribal herdsmen were sent to the vicinity of Gaoque to settle down.
"The people of the Han Dynasty are really out of the jam......" Hu Yan slaughtered the refugees who reported the news, and immediately jumped to his feet and scolded: "These despicable Han Dynasty people, what do you think I am the Great Huns?" ”
Although, Hu Yan had a premonition before the slaughter that the Han army was going to go out.
However, when the Han army really came out of the fortress, he still felt a deep shame and a heavy sense of crisis.
Shame because the people of the Han Dynasty dared to go out of the fortress in winter!!!
This is completely contempt for the Huns without taking the Huns in their eyes.
This is completely a declaration to the entire Xiongnu: the Han army is not afraid to fight a decisive battle with the Xiongnu in the field in winter.
What does this mean? It couldn't be clearer.
Huyan Dangtu knew very well that the people of the Han Dynasty in the south were not fools and idiots.
On the contrary, they were the toughest, toughest, smartest, and most war-gifted opponents the Huns had ever encountered.
The decades of war and grievances between Han and Hungary are enough for the high-level leaders of the two countries to estimate the strength and approximate combat power of both sides.
Decades of intelligence warfare between Han and Hungary are more than enough for both countries to know each other's troop strength and mobilization capabilities.
Based on the population, roads, and economic situation of the Great Wall in the north of the Han Dynasty, Huyan Dangtu was well aware that the Han Dynasty would send an army of 60,000 to 80,000 troops at most.
And how many troops does he have under his command?
Even if the Hun Evil and Xiu Tu headquarters in the Hexi Corridor are removed, as well as the three thousand horsemen stationed in Qilian Mountain and Rouge Mountain.
He now holds in his hands the power of the entire fourteen thousand horsemen of the Makunan and Makubei tribes!
The total number of troops is as high as 80,000 horsemen!
Among them, more than half is the headquarters of the Xiongnu.
The meaning of this department is the cavalry of the Xiongnu tribe with the Xiongnu clan, the Xubu clan, the Lan clan and the Huyan clan as the main body.
Such a force is enough to sweep the entire world, and there is no force that can show off its might in front of such a powerful cavalry group.
However, the Han Dynasty people still came.
Moreover, the momentum of the come.
This means that in the eyes of the emperors and ministers of the Han Dynasty, the Xiongnu are no longer to be feared.
The Han army had the confidence and ability to defeat him and his army in the wilderness.
More confident that you can conquer Gaoque!
If there is no such certainty, how can the people of the Han Dynasty dare to get out of the fortress? How dare you get out of the jam in such weather?
You know, in more than a month, this Henan will be snowing heavily.
When the time comes, people in the wild, their breath turns into ice, and their hair is frosty.
Even the Huns did not dare to go out easily in such cold weather.
If the people of the Han Dynasty were not sure enough to defeat him and defeat him, then their current behavior would be to send him to death!
When Huyan Dangtu thought of this, he immediately called his cronies, who were also his younger brothers, Hu Yanming, the commander of the Huyan clan.
"Mingming, as General Zuo, I order you to immediately lead your headquarters ten thousand cavalry and Shan Yu's personal guards left behind, and escort Zuo Tu Yu to Shen Tu Ze immediately!" Huyan Dangtu ordered: "At the same time, I will also give an order to let the Zhelan tribe go south to Shentuze to meet you, and when you meet with Zhelan, immediately follow Shentuze and withdraw to Rouge Mountain!" ”
The Zhelan tribe was severely defeated in the Battle of Mayi.
But its own tribe and herdsmen are there, and now, this once powerful tribe is still in the **** wound between Rouge Mountain and Gaolan Mountain.
Let them go to war, they are more than they can do but not have the strength.
But it is enough for them to carry out the task of protection.
Although the Zhelan tribe was defeated in Mayi, its prestige still shocked the grassland.
With it, no one dares to provoke and hostile.
Hu Yan is the absolute brain of Hu Yan Dangtu.
When he heard this, he immediately knelt down and said, "Please rest assured, General Zuo, as long as there is a clear and distinct clan, and there is still one person alive, Zuo Tuxuan will definitely be fine!" ”
"Good!" Hu Yan Dangtu nodded, pulled out a knife from his waist, handed it to Hu Yan Mingming, and instructed: "The gods witness, the ancestors look down, I will hand over the safety of Tu Hao to you!" ”
"You must do whatever it takes to ensure that Tu Hao will not be in danger!"
The core of the Xiongnu Empire lies in the Suo clan, and the core of the Ju clan lies in the clan.
Now, the former sect Yin Zhi has been slanted.
His line was completely cut off.
Although the Hujie tribe inherited the name of its clan.
However, within the Xiongnu, who would admit that the Hujie people were a clan?
The barbarian from Jinshan is just a transitional product!
There is only one of the tribes that acknowledges and allegiance.
This is the son of Shan Yu, Zuo Xian Wang Yu Dan.
At the same time, Yu Shan is also the last boy in the bloodline of Lao Shangdan Yu.
If he makes a mistake, the Xiongnu Empire will not fight the Han people.
Let's talk about it by playing a dog brain inside yourself.
The concubines of Mao Dun Shan Yu, the heirs of the side branches of the old Shang Shan Yu, and the relatives of the Su Yu clan, everyone will want to compete for the position of this clan.
Now, the Han Dynasty army is pressing the border, and Huyan Dangtu cannot be sure that this place is still safe.
Out of prudent consideration, he could only choose to send Zuo Xianwang Yushan to the safety of Rouge Mountain.
There, there are tribes that are loyal and reliable, and there are minions who are absolutely loyal to them.
Hu Yanming took the knife, solemnly held it, cut the skin on his chest, and let the blood flow, this is the most serious promise of the Huns, which means swearing to the gods and ancestors: as long as there is blood in his body and he can breathe, he will never forget the oath!
Looking at Hu Yan Ming, Hu Yan Dangtu was finally relieved.
As long as Zuoxian King Yu Shan is still alive, even if he is defeated, even if he loses Gaoque, there is still hope and a future for the Xiongnu Empire!
Sending his younger brother away, Hu Yanming immediately called another of his cronies, the head of the Dangtu tribe who was directly under him, to be Tu Yan.
In the grasslands, people don't have surnames, only first names.
However, when the grassland peoples came into contact with the Central Plains peoples, they found that it was wrong not to have a surname.
As a result, the tribes began to use the name of their leader as their surname.
Like the Sulu clan, the Huyan clan, the Lan clan, and the Subu clan, they all grew slowly in this way.
And the side branches of the clan, after independence, will use their own name as the surname of the clan.
So, in the Xiongnu, under one big clan, there were countless small clans.
These clans are linked together, that is, the Xiongnu.
Hu Yan Dangtu, as the general of Zuo, as a close confidant of Shan Yu, he was naturally allowed to form his own clan.
As a result, Huyan Dangtu will follow his many slaves and attendants, as well as cavalry, for many years, to form a new Dangtu clan.
In addition, the population of the clan was constantly expanded and enriched.
Today, the Tu clan has more than 10,000 towns and more than 7,000 regularly trained cavalry.
And to be Tu Yan is to follow Hu Yan to be a slave from the beginning to today.
is his most trusted and best comrade-in-arms.
Therefore, Huyan Dangtu's attitude towards this person is also very intimate.
"My path (Xiongnu word treasure knife, sharp arrow), I order you, immediately lead my loyal Dangtu clan ten thousand horsemen, immediately to the south, seize the river bay northwest of Honghu Sai and the nearby hills, and ensure the smooth passage between Gaoque and Ziling!" Hu Yan Dangtu patted the other party's shoulder intimately and said, "No matter what, you must hold there!" ”
Although Hu Yan Dangtu has never read military books, he has not systematically studied military affairs.
But how experienced he is!
After the Han army was in the clouds, he immediately thought that the Han Dynasty could also send troops from Shangjun to cut off the connection between Gaoque and Ziling.
Although, it is more difficult and costly to send troops from Shangjun than from the clouds.
However, Hu Yan was slaughtered, and he didn't want the army he sent to Ziling to be stabbed with chrysanthemums!
"Yes! Master! When Tu Yun didn't say a word, he immediately knelt down and received the order.
After sending Dang Tu away from Dang Tu, Hu Yan Dang Tu immediately ordered his guards loudly to immediately gather the princes and nobles of all the tribes and the ten thousand horsemen of the clan.
The Han Dynasty people are coming, of course he will not be stupid to stay in Gaoque, watching the Han Dynasty army pull out the nails of the Xiongnu in front of Gaoque.
It's very demoralizing!
Moreover, what is the difference between the Hun cavalry and the infantry in the fortified city?
Hu Yan Dangtu knew that the people of the Han Dynasty were experts in building cities.
They built a strong city fortress, the Gaoque fortress at the foot of the city, which was also built by the ancestors of the Han Dynasty.
Since the Han Dynasty was able to build such a fortress, it means that they are sure to capture such a fortress.
Trapped in a lonely city, just sitting back and waiting to die.
Moreover......
Huyan Dangtu raised his head, gritted his teeth, and said unconvinced: "Han Dynasty people, let me Huyan Dangtu weigh your catties!" ”
The Han Dynasty was in Mayi, and the first battle defeated the spirit of the Xiongnu, which made many people in the southern part of the country change their Han color.
Even the Makukubu clan is like a frightened bird.
If the Han army invaded this time, he would have more than 100,000 horsemen, but he could only retreat in Gaoque City.
After that, who would dare to fight in the field with the Han Dynasty?
Which tribe still dares to face the attack of the Han Dynasty?
Even in winter, you can only turtle speed?
In the summer and autumn, you still can't run away when you see people?
In Huyan Dangtu's view, this is a more terrible thing than defeat.
Defeats can also be learned, but such a speed can only bring destruction and destruction! (To be continued.) )
