The Third Night: The Founding Battle of the Northern Wei Dynasty (2)

The northern Hu people before Emperor Xiaowen of the Northern Wei Dynasty had not yet accepted the baptism of Han culture, and in addition to their biological parents, they looked down on kinship. Although they have a lot of relationships with relatives, in fact, these relatives still hate each other, and the fights and killings between each other have not decreased at all.

The late Dai Wang Tuoba Shi Yiqian was also because he oppressed Liu Weichen of the Xiongnu Tiefu Department too much, so that this son-in-law defected to the former Qin, attracted strong enemies for the country, and finally destroyed the country.

Knowing this habit of the other party, Sima Fuqiang naturally would not stupidly open and close his mouth and say "Your uncle Tuoba Gulu", "Your cousin Tuoba Yilie", "Your Liu Kangni who doesn't know if it's a cousin or uncle", all of them are called by their names and treated as enemies.

To say that the relationship between Liu Kangni and Tuoba is not too complicated, after all, Liu Kangni, a cheap uncle, has not yet given birth to a cousin for him. But his other uncle, He Yegan, who was also the head of the Helan tribe of his grandfather, was a big problem.

He Yegan married Princess Liaoxi, the daughter of Tuoba Shiyiqian, and gave birth to He Ne and He, who were supposed to be Tuoba Shiyiqian's cousins and cousins. As a result, in order to further close the relationship with Helan Ministry, He Yegan married this daughter to his brother-in-law and gave birth to Tuoba Jue, Emperor Daowu of the Northern Wei Dynasty. So Tuoba's mother, He, was simply a cousin born to his own aunt...... It's a kinship that's even more of a headache than Greek mythology.

Therefore, those things in the Tang Dynasty in later generations were nothing, but Gaozong Li Zhi took his father Li Shimin's little wife Wu Zetian as the queen, and Xuanzong Tang Ming Emperor Li Longji robbed his daughter-in-law as a concubine. You must know that the emperors of the Tang Dynasty are also of Hu blood from the Xianbei clan, and their behavior is not much more exaggerated than that of their ancestors, but they leave two strange women who have been recited through the ages for future generations.

In a word, the northern Hu people at this time not only have no permanent friends, or even no permanent relatives, but only eternal interests. For the benefit of their own clan, all people can have a complex relationship of friend and foe.

The next question is simple, Tuoba Jue accepted Sima Fuqiang's "benefit theory", decided to act according to the plan, and released false news to lure Tuoba Cave to take the Dugu army to Gaoliu to intercept the non-existent Tuoba Helan coalition army.

The real coalition army still took the "white road" back to Niuchuan, and then marched east from the north of Daijun to Gaoliu, and the Great Yan army led by Murong Lin from the south to the north was copied from the two sides, cutting off the return route of Tuoba Cave, in order to eat this lone army of the Dugu Huns.

In October, the Tuoba Division, the Helan Division, the Murong Division, and the Dugu Division met in Gaoliu, starting the first battle since the founding of the Northern Wei Dynasty, and it was also the opening battle of Tuoba Jue's life.

Although the strategic ideas of this battle were all planned by Sima Fuqiang in the center, in order to improve the prestige of the young Daowu Emperor, he never mentioned it in front of others, only that these were what Tuoba Jue himself thought. Tuoba Jue has a better impression of this knowledgeable subordinate, but he is puzzled, and he is always used to asking him for advice.

At this time, Tuoba Gulu had already realized that he had been tricked, and he now had no choice but to defend the three coalition forces organized by Tuoba Jue, or to flee to the northeast to join Liu Weichen's Tiefu Department.

In his mind, it might be a good choice to take refuge in Liu Weichen temporarily, after all, the Tiefu Department and the Tuoba Department are also considered feuds, and the enemies of the enemy should be regarded as allies. But the problem is that Liu Xian's father Liu Kuren and Liu Weichen also had grievances, so the Dugu Huns could not accept this plan, and they were only willing to choose to break through.

A major war cannot be avoided, which is not only a historical necessity, but also in Sima Fuqiang's calculations.

The following years of the Northern Wei Dynasty can be described as a series of wars, such as the defeat of Liu Xian at Mize in June 387, the attack on Kumoxi in 388, and the defeat of Liu Weichen in 392, in addition to many smaller wars.

In the past few years, on the one hand, the Northern Wei Dynasty fought with Murong Chui's Hou Yanxu and the Snake, and on the other hand, the Quartet conquered and included many small tribes of the Xiongnu and Xianbei into their own pockets.

It was not until 391 that the fledgling Northern Wei Dynasty began to have a small friction with Murong Chui Houyan. In October 395, the two sides fought a great battle in Shenhepi, and the later Yan flourished and declined, and Murong Chui died of illness the following year.

In 398, Tuoba Jue, who had been invincible in the north, once again moved the capital to the Central Plains, this time he chose Pingcheng, Shanxi, the center of Dai County, and changed it to Yuan Tianxing, and then officially proclaimed himself emperor in 399.

All of the above began with the Battle of Gaoliu, Tuoba Jue and his Northern Wei Empire grew up step by step, and finally unified the north, and together with the Southern Song Dynasty to form the Northern and Southern Dynasties after the Eastern Jin Dynasty.

Similarly, for the East China Sea team, this dream of the main line of the North and South Dynasties is also in the ascendant. They made a high-profile appearance at the beginning and directly entered the core of the Northern Wei Dynasty's power, as long as there were no accidents, they would definitely be able to firmly grasp the title of the chief dream man of the Northern Wei camp in the palm of their hands, so as to obtain a lot of benefits.

After a few days of rest, the people of the East China Sea team have recovered their physical strength to their peak state, and after some brainstorming, everyone believes that they should devote themselves to the front line of the battle and take the lead. On the one hand, the Hu people are fierce, even Tuoba Jue has been on the front line, and there is no reason for them to hide in the rear and enjoy their success.

The more important reason is that after experiencing the battle of Dingjun Mountain, people in their dreams have seen the power of the top combat power of the war dream realm, and they are more eager to realize that they must improve their own strength as soon as possible. Even if you don't want to defeat the enemy, you can better improve your survivability.

======================== the dividing line between dream and reality =======================

At the time of the battle, the Gaoliu battlefield was almost all cavalry, the Huns and Xianbei people were all horseback people, good at riding and archery and not good at foot combat or siege, so the two sides coincidentally chose field warfare.

In this situation, the most depressed were naturally the belligerent Zhang Wei and Wanyue. One of these two people is not suitable for horse combat because the weight of the weapon is too heavy. One is simply only suitable for hand-to-hand combat, and horse combat has no chance to play.

The battlefield was in the basin directly north of Takayanagi's office, the Murong cavalry was arrayed on the south side of the basin, and the Helan tribe occupied the north, and as the protagonists of this battle, Tuoba and his uncle were one in the west and the other in the east. Tuoba's coalition was about twice as large as his uncle's, and in the shape of a glaive, he blocked the cave to the east.

Due to the disadvantage in numbers, Tuoba Cave had to attack first, otherwise once the momentum was suppressed, they would be finished. With the sound of the horn, tens of thousands of Hun iron horsemen started, accelerated, and charged at the same time, just like the waves of a typhoon, sweeping towards the Tuoba headquarters in the west, which made people feel excited.

Even if he is already a dream man of the East China Sea team who has been in battle for a long time, he has lost his mind for a moment. Prior to this, they had only seen large-scale Western Liang cavalry in the Battle of Weinan of the Three Kingdoms in 211, but at that time it was not such a pure cavalry battle, but the orthodox Han combat method of cavalry and foot soldiers.

Lucheng, where the East China Sea team is located in the real world, is a city located on the coast of the East China Sea, and whenever there is a typhoon, Zhang Wei always likes to see the sea and feel one of the most powerful forces of nature.

The typhoon roared on the sea at a speed of more than 200 kilometers per hour, rolling up huge waves as high as more than 10 meters, like a dragon with teeth and claws, fiercely swooping down on the shore, slapping the reef fiercely, and making a splash of broken water. There was definitely not one, but thousands, of such dragons, as if they were about to tear apart the earth that stood in their way.

If anyone walks to the edge of the reef at this time, they will be swallowed by the huge water dragon. In fact, people at the beach know this truth, but there are always a few similar accidents every year, just because of the worship of the power of nature by human beings.

And at this moment, a charge of the cavalry troops of the Dugu Huns actually gave Zhang Wei the feeling of facing the typhoon Tianhai again, and his "bloodthirsty" talent boiled at this moment, infecting the war horse under the crotch, restlessly stepping in place, eager to try.
