Chapter 357: Breaking through Shuofang
The diplomatic war between Qin Xiaobai and Liu Bao lasted for seven days, and Qin Xiaobai also trained the soldiers of Yanmen Pass for seven days.
After these seven days of valuable training, coupled with Qin Xiaobai's heavy money, the soldiers of Yanmen Pass have been promoted by two levels on average, and they have basically become regular soldiers of the fifth level.
At this time, Qin Xiaobai, who had a million regular troops, coupled with the sharp walls of Yanmen Pass, and the command of Mu Guiying, a first-class historical general, was enough to face Liu Bao's fierce offensive of 300,000 Huns, and he was invincible.
This made Qin Xiaobai extremely happy, as long as he was undefeated, then everything would be easy to say.
However, although the combat strength of the Qin army has increased greatly, there is still a certain gap between the individual combat power of the Xiongnu soldiers and the Xiongnu soldiers, and because they are all infantry, it is difficult to defeat Liu Bao's 300,000 Xiongnu soldiers in the field.
Even if the Huns were defeated once in every calculation, it would be difficult to hurt the vitality of the Hun cavalry.
And if the Xiongnu continue to consume, not only will he lose countless money and food every day, but he will also make Qin Xiaobai unable to concentrate and face the upcoming historical plot of Dong Zhuo's chaos in Luoyang, which will affect the general trend of the Central Plains.
Therefore, Qin Xiaobai planned to show his strength to the Xiongnu before shaking hands with the Xiongnu.
At this time, Qin Xiaobai had already won consecutive victories over the Huns, and then he made peace, as if he was forced by the Huns to sign an alliance under the city.
And the words of peace before, it is obviously not possible to satisfy the appetite of the Huns without paying a big price, but now as long as Qin Xiaobai shows his strength, then the Huns will naturally retreat.
However, when Qin Xiaobai learned a piece of news, he didn't think so anymore.
That news is Wei Qing's battle report.
Since Wei Qing led 50,000 cavalry, took the Yellow River waterway upstream, and the lone army went deep into the rear of the Xiongnu, Qin Xiaobai has not had any exact news of Wei Qing, only knowing that Wei Qing is leading the army to disturb the rear of the Xiongnu.
And this time, Wei Qing sent a great victory, when he was harassing the enemy's rear. According to the information given by the local Jinyi Guard, it was speculated that a Xiongnu herd of horses was a force.
So he pursued and successfully surrounded and annihilated the Xiongnu horse herding army, capturing more than 300,000 horses. Moreover, these 300,000 horses are all black-maned horses of the third class.
Originally, Qin Xiaobai asked for 100,000 black-maned horses from Ding Yuan as support, so that the 50,000 elite cavalry under Wei Qing's command were all equipped with a high standard of one person and two horses.
The advantage of one person and two horses is that you can change horses to ride. Or use another horse to transport necessary materials such as grain, grass, armor, etc., so that the cavalry troops can always be long-range and durable, which is undoubtedly the most suitable for a lone in-depth battle like Wei Qing.
And Wei Qing now captures these 300,000 horses, which will make the soldiers go from one person to two horses and one person to eight horses, which will not be a help, but a drag.
So Wei Qing reported to Qin Xiaobai and asked Qin Xiaobai to send a transport ship over to carry all the loot back to the territory.
When Qin Xiaobai saw this battle report, he was immediately overjoyed, and hurriedly ordered someone to send a transport ship to Wei Qing to pick up the goods.
At the same time, Qin Xiaobai also understood. How powerful Wei Qing's 'acquisition' skill is.
After Wei Qing took the Growth Elixir, Qin Xiaobai also used the reading function to check Wei Qing's attributes as an adult.
At that time, he found that Wei Qing, one of the two walls of the Great Han, was not an offensive skill, but a predatory 'slash', a skill that increased the 10% chance of plundering the opponent's materials in large quantities.
This skill has a provenance, Wei Qing has a total of five great victories in his life, of which the successful one is undoubtedly the third great victory, the 'surprise attack on Gaoque Battle' in the fifth year of Emperor Yuanshuo of the Han Dynasty.
In this battle, Wei Qing led his troops to surround the Xiongnu Youxian King, capturing more than 10 Xiao Wang, more than 15,000 men and women. Millions of livestock were killed.
Because of this battle, Wei Qing went to the pinnacle of his life, so that he worshiped the general and led the soldiers and horses of the world.
However, because it is not the offensive skill that Qin Xiaobai wants most. Still makes him a little tired.
And now that Qin Xiaobai saw that this 'capture' skill was so ferocious, he immediately sent him 300,000 black-maned horses, which immediately made him overjoyed.
Although Qin Xiaobai also let Mulan plunder millions of cattle and sheep of the Huns, which is more than Wei Qing's capture, in fact, it is not the market value. is still a strategic value, and the 300,000 black-maned horses plundered by Wei Qing are far superior.
And Wei Qing plundered these 300,000 black-maned horses, which is undoubtedly as precious as charcoal in the snow for Qin Xiaobai, who is scarce in horses and has been unable to fight back against the Huns.
Qin Xiaobai has these 300,000 black-maned horses, and he can directly train 300,000 cavalry, which is not weaker than the Huns' mobility, and when the time comes, he will really have the power to counterattack in the face of the Huns.
And Qin Xiaobai couldn't help but think that if Wei Qing could often 'win' like this, it would really be crooked......
Although the Xiongnu had many horses, their horses were not for nothing, and they were also horses belonging to the third class, which belonged to the higher class, and 300,000 were plundered at once.
The special enemy is Qin Xiaobai, the opponent he brought out, and he naturally has a share of this responsibility, so this suddenly made Liu Bao unable to sit still.
Originally, letting Wei Qing disrupt behind the enemy and causing Liu Bao to withdraw his troops was Qin Xiaobai's strategic core goal.
But now the situation is different, since Wei Qing is so capable, let Wei Qing work for a while longer.
Therefore, after seeing that Liu Bao had the intention of returning to the army, Qin Xiaobai immediately asked the Meihua internal guard to pass on the information of the Hun secret agent to Liu Bao.
This information is a real information, and under Qin Xiaobai's arrangement, the Xiongnu spies successfully found out his details.
It's just that Qin Xiaobai has a time difference, this information was real information seven days ago, but now that seven days have passed, time has passed, and this information is completely wrong information.
And Liu Bao was overjoyed when he saw Qin Xiaobai's 'true' situation, which was so weak.
Now he can only make up for the loss of the sheep when he returns to the army, but if he can break through the Yanmen Pass, then he will definitely recover all the profits and profits.
Therefore, Liu Bao immediately decided to send troops to attack Yanmen Pass.
After Qin Xiaobai saw that he had successfully attracted all the firepower of Liu Bao's army, he was overjoyed, thinking that in this way, he could also let Wei Qing, who was in the rear of the Huns, have more room to move.
He didn't ask Wei Qing to make another huge gain like a 300,000 black-maned horse,
As long as Wei Qing can continue to make trouble for the Xiongnu in the rear, continue to expand the losses of the Xiongnu, weaken the strength of the Xiongnu, and allow Qin Xiaobai to force the Xiongnu to take the initiative to sue for peace, he will already be satisfied.
However, Wei Qing is worthy of being the nemesis of the Han Shuangbi Huns, and the results he has achieved far exceed Qin Xiaobai's expectations.
Wei Qing's second battle was more fruitful than the capture of 300,000 black-maned horses, and he actually broke through the 'Shuofang County City', one of the four counties outside the Saiwai. (To be continued.) )
