Chapter 191: Strategy

The school of Xuehaiguan adheres to the tradition of Shengle City in the past, and there will be five days a month when children come to the school not to attend classes, but will go out of the school under the leadership of Mr. Jiaoxi to carry out "extracurricular activities." ”

Sometimes they would go to the barracks to watch the soldiers train, help feed the horses and wipe their armor, and then have lunch with the soldiers;

Sometimes I go to the workshop to help with the day's work, and lunch is solved with the workers in the workshop.

Basically, the production and business activities under the entire Earl's Palace, except for the red tent, are not yet old,

The rest of the places can be the target places for students to "experience life".

There are no idlers in the Snow Customs, unless you are really old enough to move, as long as you can still move, you will be assigned a job, such as sweeping the streets or something.

Liu Dahu's grandmother is responsible for tidying up an area on Chengbei Street.

From the perspective of the afterlife, the people who live here or in the area controlled by the Earl's Court feel that they are really tired of living, but in fact these people have no complaints.

They have all experienced war and chaos, and they have eliminated that touch of hypocrisy, and at the same time, they can eat enough, these three words seem simple, but they are also the lifelong pursuit of most people in this era.

As long as they can eat, you can let them do whatever they want.

Today, Liu Dahu and other children of the same age were taught to go to the construction site in the south of the snow customs city, where rows of houses were built in a neat manner, and the blocks were tightly organized like a piece of square lattice with a larger square.

This kind of forced unity and symmetry reflects the obsessive compulsion of Uncle Zheng, a painter by training, in design and composition.

In fact, the construction of private houses is not complicated, the materials are not very good, the construction period is also very fast, and there are many people involved in the construction, but in terms of quality, there is still a great guarantee in terms of shelter from the wind and rain and not suddenly collapsing and killing people.

Because whoever participated in the construction of which block will all be registered, and the name of the acceptor, the small foreman and the workers below will all be recorded.

If there is a big problem, such as killing someone, the builder will be fined, and the acceptor and the small foreman will be punished.

Not only in this regard, but also the Foundry Bureau, the weapons workshop of the Snow Customs, not to mention every set of armor, but every spear and every knife, there will be marks on it, indicating who is in charge, and once there is a problem with the quality of the ordnance, it will inevitably be held accountable.

These details are actually not the first of the Earl's Court, but the blind copied some of the systems of the Qin Dynasty.

Today, these students, including Liu Dahu, will be working as small workers on the construction site, and there will also be a special small foreman to take them to explain.

After all, after they are sixteen years old, they will basically participate in these industries, and because they are literate and know how to count, and at the same time they have grown up under the love of "Uncle Zheng" since childhood, loyalty is carved in their bones, and in the future, under the Earl's Court industry, it is easy to achieve the position of small boss.

Because Liu Dahu will also exercise his body under the teaching of the Sword Saint on weekdays, although he can't talk about refining his muscles and bones, because he is too young;

But strength and size gave him an advantage among these classmates, and after grouping, Liu Dahu became the group leader, leading more than 20 classmates to be responsible for carrying some small bricks.

Halfway through the work, everyone felt that the ground under their feet seemed to tremble.

For a while, both adults and children turned their eyes to the southwest, and there, a black and oppressive "dark cloud" appeared. ”

No

It's cavalry!

The Yan army of the Snow Customs, who was responsible for supervising and cruising around, took the initiative to send out and made a posture of preparing to meet the enemy, but soon, the posture of meeting the enemy was lifted, and the Yan army that had dispersed before began to turn back, and at the same time cooperated with some officials of the earl's palace on the construction site to maintain order and clean up the official road.

The confused people on the surrounding construction site made a swing in their hearts, suddenly lifted it, and suddenly fell.

The vast majority of them are no strangers to war, but most of them still don't want to fight, at least, on their own doorstep.

Liu Dahu took a few of his classmates and squeezed forward to the side of the official road, wanting to see the excitement, although he was stopped by the soldiers, but he had already seized the front position.

The first to come over was Uncle Zheng, who took the lead.

The soldiers and civilians in the Snow Customs knew that their uncle did not want to be specialized, so he did not wear special armor, and was the same as the soldiers.

But it's very simple for everyone to recognize it, that is, the entire Snow Customs, except for Uncle Zheng, no one can ride a Pixiu under his crotch, and Uncle Zheng's crotch is still Pixiu!

When Zheng Fan walked in,

Except for the soldiers who maintained order on the official road, all the soldiers and civilians on both sides knelt down:

"See Uncle, Uncle's Fukang!"

"See Uncle, Uncle's Fukang!"

Uncle Zheng waved his horse whip and made an explosion in the air, which was regarded as a response to these soldiers and civilians paying homage to him, and then the horse did not slow down and entered the south city gate directly.

And following behind Uncle Zheng, many people have already recognized it as a confidant general in front of Uncle Zheng, Jin Shuke, who used to guard the city gate at the east gate of Shengle City, and was later appreciated by Uncle Zheng and promoted all the way through military merits.

Among the Snow Sea Iron Cavalry, there are already a lot of barbarian soldiers, and alchemy can be regarded as the one with the highest rank and the greatest influence among the barbarian soldiers.

As for the barbarian with long hair in another type of armor next to Jin Shuke, everyone felt a little strange.

Brother Ke Yandong was a little nervous, on the one hand, the city wall of the Snow Pass gave him a sense of oppression, after all, there was basically no city in the desert except for a royal city where the royal court was located, and on the other hand, it was because of the scene of the soldiers and civilians who knelt down before, which made him feel a little swaying.

Ke Yanbu is not a small tribe, gritting his teeth, he can forcibly make up 10,000 people who control the strings, but this kind of hierarchical culture of the barbarians is there, strict and strict, but it is definitely not as exquisite as the Eastern countries, especially here in the Snow Customs, in order to meet Uncle Zheng's personal preferences and enjoyment, he has actually worked the number of etiquette for a long time.

It's like it's all kings, on your side, during the meeting, everyone drinks and eats meat together and even goes down to wrestle in person, while on the other side is the dragon chair on the top, and the civil and military officials below kowtow neatly, this feeling is actually different.

Because of Uncle Zheng's behavior of entering the city directly, Jin Shu didn't dare to make too many moves to the soldiers and civilians kneeling around, but just controlled the speed of the horse and followed Uncle Zheng into the city gate.

And after that,

It was the warriors of the Keyan tribe who rode in,

And because Uncle Zheng had already entered the city, and the people on both sides of the official road also got up, everyone couldn't help but start to judge this new-faced army.

"Where did this beggar soldier come from?"

A child named Li Erniu next to Liu Dahu said with a smile.

Liu Dahu replied to him:

"It's a barbarian, a barbarian, from the western desert."

Desert, barbarian,

The Jin people are actually very unfamiliar with them.

Because between the Jin Kingdom and the desert, there is a Yan Kingdom blocking.

However, this Li Erniu is indeed right, the cavalry team in front of him who is entering the city really looks like a beggar army.

The tribe of the Ke Yan tribe is actually still behind, there are still more than ten miles away from the Snow Pass, and these seven thousand warriors were mobilized by Zheng Fan personally in the past to order Brother Ke Yan Dong in a short period of time.

These tribal warriors, who had basically accompanied their families to migrate before, and may even be holding their children, immediately put down everything in their hands and galloped together, which can be said to be unprepared.

Naturally, it is not possible to talk about picking up yourself well in your debut, and the dust accumulated under the long-distance migration is so clear.

At the same time, many generals at that time had analyzed that the Zhenbei Army could suppress the desert for a hundred years, and these analyses basically could not avoid two elements.

One is the ordnance and equipment of the Zhenbei Army, and the other is the military discipline of the Zhenbei Army.

Since the decline of the royal court, the desert can be said to be a plate of scattered sand, even if multiple tribes are forced to gather troops, in fact, they are fighting on their own;

As for ordnance and equipment, there is really no way to do it.

More than 100 years ago, the desert barbarians were not as hard as they are now, the barbarian royal court in the heyday led the desert tribe warriors to the east, pressing the Yan country to fight, if it were not for the Yan country's hard fighting for several generations of emperors to fight to the death, maybe they would have broken through the iron hooves of the Yan country and stepped into the east;

To the west, it has crushed the Western countries, and even collected a large number of Western countries as its own vassal countries, providing barbarian warriors with food, armaments, and other dividends that can only be provided by urbanized civilization and agricultural civilization.

That period of time was actually the heyday of the barbarians.

However, the flowers did not flourish, the royal court's western expedition failed, the status plummeted, and the Western countries dominated by the Roman Empire rose and began to take the initiative to compress the living space of the barbarians to the east;

In the east, since the establishment of the Zhenbei Army by the first Zhenbei Hou, the Yan State began to occupy a dominant position in the battle for Yan Barbarians.

For a time, the two neighbors of the barbarians, the east and the west, began to press him to fight, which made the barbarians' lives more and more miserable, and the embargo of iron weapons, ordnance, and technology was the same policy of the East and the West towards the barbarians.

That's how the beggars army came about.

In Ke Yan's department, except for a few warriors who can be qualified to wear armor, most of the rest are only wearing leather clothes, and there are many people's arrowheads, which are ground out of animal bones.

This kind of poor and sour state, and the savage who didn't enter the customs at the beginning, is really the eldest brother who doesn't laugh at the second brother.

On the other hand, Uncle Zheng, since the establishment of the army with hundreds of barbarians, has been spending a lot of money on ordnance and equipment, which can be said to have spared no effort, and later developed and grew step by step, and has always adhered to the policy of elite soldiers.

Therefore, the military and civilians of the Snow Customs have long been accustomed to this kind of excellent military appearance.

Moreover, people always need some sense of self-superiority to increase their daily happiness, not to mention these people, even those barbarian soldiers and generals in the Snow Navy immediately sent a disdainful smile towards the "poor relatives" after looking at the "beggar clothes" of their compatriots in the Ke Yan Tribe.

And the warriors of Ke Yanbu also clearly felt the abnormality of the surrounding atmosphere, and it could be seen that they wanted to make the queue more neat, but because they had not rehearsed beforehand, the more they thought about it, the more they couldn't get it neat.

At the same time, their identity is also a little embarrassing for this place, because they know that the snow customs will be a place for them and their families to live and survive in the future, and for the people here, there will always be a complicated emotion in it.

They are not enemies, but ............ Neighbor?

Barbarians, accustomed to tribal life, do not have a clear concept of "neighbors" in this broad sense, and in the desert, two tribes adjacent to each other tend to be wary of each other, for fear that one day the other party will annex them.

"Woo woo woo !!"

The trumpet sounded again,

This is a signal to speed up the march.

……

Inside the gloomy underground cell, there is a black table.

On the other side of the table, there was an iron fence, and the Savage King held the iron fence with both hands, watching a familiar figure slowly walk over and sit down behind the table.

"So fast?" The Savage King asked.

Since the last time the Savage King told the blind man about the situation in the snow field and the situation of the various tribes, the Savage King has been shelved here for a long time, and no one cares about it.

Asked so quickly, does that mean it's time to do it?

Summer hasn't passed yet, and autumn is still far away.

The blind man spoke:

"It's a barbarian."

The savage king, who held the fence with both hands, smiled,

Road:

"Knock or woo?"

"Extermination."

"Did you declare it?"

"It's announced."

"Then you have to hurry."

The Savage King was straightforward.

"How fast?" The blind man asked.

"The sooner the better." The Savage King continued: "It takes time to unite the various tribes in the Snow Plain, it needs to be agreed in advance on the division of the spoils, and there are also oaths and sacrifices, and the warriors also need to be gathered, which will delay a lot of time.

After the destruction of the Nabarbarians, the other tribes will no longer speak up for a tribe that no longer exists. ”

The blind man nodded,

Road:

"It's been soon."

………

"So fast, straight to the battlefield?"

When Ke Yanbu began to enter the city, in fact, the north gate of the Snow Customs had already been opened, and Zheng Fan didn't stop at all, and rode out directly from the spacious official road between the north and south city gates.

Brother Ke Yandong, who was following behind Zheng Fan, thought that he was going to enter the city to rest or something, but who knew that he would enter directly from the south gate and go out from the north gate next, so he couldn't help but ask about alchemy.

In fact

Alchemy doesn't know anything,

But he didn't want Brother Ke Yandong to feel that he didn't know,

So just pretending to be deep and saying:

"Just listen to your uncle's orders."

After leaving the North City Gate, Ke Yandong saw rows of simple shacks appear in front of him.

Some shacks have boiling water, while others have steaming drawers, which are steaming hot and fragrant.

Zheng Fan turned over, led Pixiu to a shack, reached out and took three big steamed buns, and also took a bowl of broth.

Then he led Pixiu to the other side and began to gobble it up.

Alchemy is also like this, turning over and dismounting to get food, and Brother Ke Yandong on the side is also like this.

In front of the shack where the steamed buns were divided, there were barbarian soldiers, many of whom were physically disabled and wounded, and they couldn't go to the battlefield anymore, so they turned to logistics.

However, it is convenient to face the people of Ke Yanbu at this time, after all, everyone can communicate in barbarian language.

"How many steamed buns do you want?"

Brother Ke Yandong: "I want it all." ”

"............" soldiers.

Jin Shuke opened his mouth and reminded: "This is hot food, and you will have to receive dry food before eating this meal." ”

And the barbarian soldier who divided the steamed buns didn't know Brother Ke Yandong, but as if he saw his former self, he smiled:

"Here, it's enough to eat."

"Ten of them."

"Okay, ten."

After receiving the steamed buns and taking the broth, Brother Ke Yandong and Jin Shuke came to Zheng Fan's side together, and when they came over, Uncle Zheng had already put the last bit of steamed bread into his mouth, and then picked up the soup bowl and drank the last bit of soup.

After seeing the ten steamed buns in Brother Ke Yandong's arms,

The corners of Uncle Zheng's eyes twitched twice unconsciously,

Suddenly, I felt a little distressed about my own food stockpile.

But I can't help but let the family eat enough, and I can't seem to be a child, so I can only leave one sentence:

"Don't waste food."

"Yes, uncle."

Brother Ke Yandong happily learned Zheng Fan's previous appearance, squatted down with Jin Shuke and began to gobble up the same.

The Ke Yanbu warriors who followed behind also began to receive steamed buns and broth, and then followed the example of the people in front of them, squatting and eating and drinking.

When Ke Yanbu migrated, there were local officials of Yan State who provided grain and grass along the way, but the food would definitely not be very surplus, and it was not only the soldiers who wanted to eat, but everyone also dragged their families with their mouths, and the consumption was even greater, and most of the barbarian warriors had not eaten enough for a long time.

After eating this meal, the Ke Yanbu warriors received fried noodles from a shack further north, and at the same time filled their water bladders with boiling water from a pot.

Several barbarian soldiers who were responsible for filling the water bladders on the warriors of the Keyan tribe joked in the tone of the passers-by:

"You're unlucky, you didn't catch the bath, that soap, but it's slippery and fragrant, it should be arranged for you when you come back from the war, remember to save some money, that thing is precious, the price in the shops in the city is very expensive, but women just like this."

The old barbarian soldiers recalled the scene when they first arrived and teamed up to collect soap.

Liang Cheng rode to Zheng Fan,

Zheng Fan was sitting there,

Lighting an after-dinner cigarette,

meantime

As usual with every march to battle,

asked Liang Cheng:

"What's next?"

………

"Next, go straight in!"

The blind man said calmly:

"Be specific."

The Savage King stretched out his hand, pulled away the beard covering his face, and said in a sonorous voice:

"The location of the barbarian department, in the north of the deep pool of the snow field, on its east side, is the Sage department, and to the west of it, is the Anyang department.

The main force of the Anyang tribe once followed me into the customs, and now, the warriors in the clan are all lost, and now they will be swallowed by the barbarian tribe, and the rules of the snow field, when you annex your tribe, you will be recruited as slaves, and then immigrate to your own tribe to operate the ranch that originally belonged to you.

Therefore, the west side of the deep pool, which originally belonged to the control of the Anyang tribe, must obviously be very empty, and only a small number of clansmen of the Naiman tribe are guarding it.

The Sagege tribe on the east side of the deep pool has a very deep in-law relationship with the Naiban tribe, and at the beginning, it was even united with the Naiban tribe to oppose me, and did not send the warriors of the clan to enter the customs with me, and the warriors of the clan are still there.

Therefore, the army should be driven from the west side into the hinterland of the barbarians! ”

The blind man nodded and said:

"Go on."

The Savage King stretched out his arms, as if he was not standing in a cage at this time, but standing in front of the map, commanding his own thousands of troops:

"The head of the barbarian tribe is short-sighted, but all the tribes that have not entered the customs with me in the past, don't look at them now, they are earning, and they are growing by annexing other tribes, but in fact, their leaders are short-sighted people.

It is the core pasture of the native tribe of the barbarians, north of the deep pool.

Since the uncle has issued a clear order to conquer the Nabarian Tribe, the Naiban Ministry will inevitably send envoys to contact other nearby tribes to help first, and at the same time, he will gather the soldiers and horses of the Ministry.

During this period of time, the Nabarian tribe has grown rapidly by annexing other tribes, but there is a hidden crisis, and the number of warriors in its headquarters has not increased much, but the increase is the slave soldiers and the soldiers and horses of the subordinate tribes.

So

When the conquest is a barbarian,

Bypass the front line with a surprise army, and cut into the pastures of the barbarians from the flank, nay, preferably from the rear, and plunder and kill their cattle and sheep.

The front line is the warriors of the barbarian headquarters will inevitably return to the pasture, and at that time, the main force of the uncle will fight a decisive battle, and the subordinate tribes and slave soldiers will have no will to fight, and they will inevitably be defeated!

The rout is complete, and the victory is decided! ”

The blind man quietly "watched" the performance of the Savage King,

When the Savage King stops,

The blind man spoke:

"Do you want to inform the other tribes?"

"Inform the other tribes? Warn them not to stand on the side of the barbarians? Or let them send troops to help the Great Yan Heavenly Master strangle the barbarian tribe? ”

"I'm asking you."

"The most terrifying creature on the snowy fields is the wolf, which is the nightmare of all herders in the middle of the night.

The wolf is proud, and what the herdsmen are afraid of is its pride, and when all the existence that resists you is crushed, the rest will naturally crawl at your feet.

Therefore, since the uncle has already sent out to the snow field that he wants to strangle the Nabarian tribe, there is no need to contact those tribes anymore, when the Naiman tribe is destroyed, they will not die and be sad, but will kneel at the uncle's feet more respectfully, licking the uncle's boots!

This is the Snow Field, this is our Holy Clan, a group of ............ Cheap bones. ”

"Hehe, are savages really so unbearable by you?"

"Smack!"

The Savage King clutched the iron fence in both hands,

Looking at the blind man with a smile,

Road:

"Hehehe, hahaha!"

forthwith

The Savage King stood on his heels to look taller, then stuck out his tongue and licked the rust stains on the railing,

The mouth went between the two pillars of iron,

Road:

"Originally, it wasn't,

But when they lost me, they were a bunch of shit. ”

————

Good night everyone.
