On May 27, 201 BC, Su Jiao received an order from Zhang Jiashi to send troops in the county guard of Liaoning County in Dingxiang City. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info: %77%77%77%76%64%74%77
Along with it, there was also a tiger talisman that Zhang Jiashi allowed Su Jiao, Yujian and others to officially transfer troops.
In this regard, Zhang Jiashi did not force Su Jiao and Yu Jian and others to do what they should do.
On the contrary, Zhang Jiashi himself saw this very openly, although he had corresponding plans and goals before the war, which can be regarded as a strict combat style, and this situation is not a bad thing. However, as a commander who has also been in battle for a long time, Zhang Jiashi himself knows very well that the situation on the front line is generally best left to the front line commander to decide.
Therefore, Zhang Jiashi gave Su Jiao, Yujian and others a goal, that is, not to let the Huns attack Donghu as much as possible. And in order to accomplish this goal, even if it is necessary to pay a certain price, the Great Qin Empire will accept such a result.
Perhaps, Zhang Jiashi himself knows very well that sometimes in order to maintain his strategic bottom line, he pays a heavy tactical price, which may be a choice that outweighs the losses. But it cannot be denied that if the Huns were allowed to occupy more strategic initiative, it would not be a good thing for the Great Qin Empire.
Although Zhang Jiashi himself is also not sure of one point, that is, whether the Donghu people will really be able to achieve the same interests with the Great Qin Empire in the face of the common enemy of the Huns, but it cannot be denied that if the Donghu people are annexed by the Huns, such a result will bring to the Great Qin Empire, and it is far from directly sending troops to support Donghu now, and the corresponding price that may be paid can be recovered.
There are many things, not that Zhang Jiashi can make his own conclusions casually, he doesn't like the Donghu people, but because of the strength of the Huns, Zhang Jiashi has to cooperate with the Donghu people, who were one of the sworn enemies in the past, and even form an alliance.
He has been in the Great Qin Empire for nearly ten years, maybe more than that. His way of thinking has changed to a certain extent, but it is undeniable that as a leader, his own hobbies and some past ideas must still be changed or even abandoned.
Maybe. This is also something that Zhang Jiashi will inevitably lose when he officially becomes the helmsman of the Great Qin Empire.
......
In March, he came to Dingxiang to discuss the corresponding matters with Su Jiao.
As the county guard of Shang County, it may be a little inappropriate to leave Shang County. But this is something that even Zhang Jiashi himself doesn't think is a big deal. Because the development of the current Shang County has made great progress compared to the situation before and after Zhang Jiashi conquered the Shang County in 208 BC.
It is true that the current Shang County is more limited by its own terrain and environment and has fallen into the bottleneck of development, but this situation also shows that the development of Shang County has reached a certain level.
Such a situation can be said to have a great credit to the company.
In the spring of 206 BC, he captured Xianyang's Hujian, but because of the influence of some aspects, he had to be "demoted" by Zhang Jiashi to the county guard of Shang County, taking over Li Zuoche's original position.
However, although he is not very good at government affairs, he has the corresponding foundation determined by Li Zuoche. The governance of Shang County in the middle of the period is quite a bit of "Xiao Gui Cao Sui".
The population of Shang County was not too large, and because the area controlled by Zhang Jiashi was getting larger and larger, part of the population of Shang County was moved to the Central Plains to fill the areas where the population had been sharply reduced due to war or some corresponding influences.
However, it is also because of this that there is more room for the development of the county in Shangjun.
In the autumn of 205 B.C., Shang County and the adjacent Liaodong County ushered in a good harvest year. In the winter of this year. Sang-gun has launched a plan to build the last major branch line of the Northern Frontier Province between Wang-gyeon-seong and the seaside county of the former Samhan region, which is now known as Sangnam County.
This project was finally completed in the spring of 203 BC.
Although, because of the existence of the Liaoning Lou Boat Soldier Unit, the development of this road seems to be somewhat redundant, but from this aspect of the planning. This road can go directly from Shangnan County to Dingxiang City, and it can also be transferred to Jixian County and more inland areas in Dingxiang City.
This situation gave Shang County, Liaoning County and the core area of the Great Qin Empire a relatively closer foundation.
Of course, under normal circumstances, it is often faster to transport materials from Wang Jiancheng to Qidi, or to transport personnel to Jixian County, and it is often faster to take sea ships at several ports on the west coast of Wang Jiancheng.
This is also the reason why some people think that this path is redundant.
But even Zhang Jiashi himself. It is undeniable that this path has some advantages of its own. That is, from Wang Jiancheng to the defense line of the Great Wall of Liaodong, this road can transport more troops in the corresponding time than by sea.
This difference may not be very huge, or even very obvious, but on the plain west of Wang Jiancheng, the garrison of the main garrison of the Shang County soldiers built has indeed become the starting point of the troops mobilized by the Shang County this time.
......
After receiving Zhang Jiashi's order, although the two of them had already made corresponding preparations in this regard, they did not immediately lead the army to cross the Great Wall defense line, enter the grassland or lead the army from Wang Jiancheng to the north, and along the Northern Xinjiang Road from the easternmost Great Wall pass of Liaoning County into the Sushen people, the Donghu people and the three forces of the Great Qin Empire, to reinforce the Donghu people.
Because they know very well that some things are not ready to go directly, and they also need to communicate with the Donghu people and the Su Shen people accordingly.
After all, few people would want to fight in the field, and they would have friction or even war with the personnel who needed assistance because of some misunderstandings.
Especially in terms of the Sushen people, although the Great Qin Empire had a lot of supplies starting from Shang County, and then entering the core area of the area controlled by the Donghu people through Sushen.
Strictly speaking, this route is not easier than the road in the northbound Donghu control area of Liaoning County, and even because of the influence of the rolling mountains, the speed of material transportation has a certain impact.
However, this road was mainly a temptation for Zhang Jiashi to use the commodities and materials of the Great Qin Empire to open up the trade routes of the Su Shen people.
The current Su Shen people are not a force with a strict system, but more like a loose tribal alliance.
In this mountain forest, there are many Sushen tribes who are still in a relatively primitive standard of living.
The armed caravans of the Great Qin Empire certainly made many Sushen tribes a little afraid and hateful at the beginning, but after these armed caravans repelled several times, or even surrounded and annihilated some raiders launched by the Sushen tribes, the military strength of the Great Qin Empire gradually fell between the mountains and forests. Deterrence of the wicked of the prudent.
Of course, if you hit Su Shen people a few times, you naturally have to give Su Shen people some sweetness.
The iron farm tools, iron pots and other products from the Great Qin Empire have become sought-after commodities in the eyes of the prudent people, and the peasant personnel in the merchant travel have obtained some hardy crops. And in exchange, he taught some of the more advanced farming techniques to the Su Shen people.
In such a way comes and goes. Around the winter of 205 BC, relations between the Great Qin Empire and the Sushen people improved considerably. However, many prudent people could not resist the temptations of the more fertile and warm Great Qin Empire, and moved south to Shang County and Liaoning County.
Although these personnel did not understand the language of the Great Qin Empire, they could still understand the general sign language.
Some of these Prudence were assigned to work as mercenaries on farms or horse farms, while some of the stronger Prudence were integrated into a separate mountain infantry unit by Sujiao and Mima.
The combat effectiveness of these mountain infantry units is not stronger than that of the Miao people of the Great Qin Empire or the mountain infantry trained by A Mian and others, but they are relatively better in terms of cold tolerance and altitude sickness resistance.
Zhang Jiashi's expectations for this army. It was hoped that this force would be the vanguard of the development of the northerner part of the Great Qin Empire.
It is true that this area of this period was either uninhabited or quite backward, but it was also inappropriate to let the people in the interior of the Great Qin Empire move at the right time, because of these personnel of the Great Qin Empire. Faced with the unsuitability of the high latitudes, Zhang Jiashi did not plan to try what the consequences would be.
In this operation, Yuma and Su Jiao thought about the possibility of fighting with the Huns in the mountains and forests, so in their meeting in March, they decided to let these cautious people who seemed to have some military appearances experience the actual battle that might break out.
Arrangements in this regard. After the negotiation between the two and the exchanges with the Donghu people and the Sushen people, the corresponding details were formalized:
Su Jiao led about 35,000 soldiers from Liaoning County to the north of Dingxiang and directly entered the area controlled by the Donghu people.
He led the Shang army and the 3,000 Su Shen infantry sent by Su Jiao, totaling about 28,000 people, from the Great Wall Pass, the easternmost part of Liaoning County, to the north. It passed through the area controlled by the Su Shen people, and then went north to the Jilin region of the later generations.
The two sides sent a total of 63,000 troops this time, and almost three-quarters of the troops of Liaoning County and Shang County were mobilized, which made Su Jiao and Shu Jian a little worried, but with the troops of Huan Su and Du Cong transferred from the Liaodong Peninsula and Jixian County to the key areas of defense of Liaoning County and Shang County, the two of them were temporarily relieved.
This is also one of Zhang Jiashi's transfer arrangements.
After all, although the Huns' forces were scattered in several regions this time, the Donghu people faced more than 150,000 people, and the Huns' combat strength led by Mao Dun's uncle, the Huns' Zuoxian Wang, still made Zhang Jiashi unable to take it too lightly.
Moreover, in order to prevent a considerable part of the main force of Yan County being transferred away by Huan Su and causing considerable defensive pressure, Zhang Jiashi ordered Yingbu to lead the army to the north of Yanshan as a mobile force to deal with possible Hun attacks and support along the Great Wall in time.
After going back and forth like this, Zhang Jiashi calculated, that is, this time he could also say that he could almost completely mobilize the mobile forces in the northeast region of the Great Qin Empire. If an unforeseen situation happens, and the defenders of the Great Wall and Yingbu are defeated one after another, then Zhang Jiashi will have no good way to save such a predicament.
However, such a gamble, Zhang Jiashi does not think that Mao Dun will have such a confidence to complete it. Moreover, Yingbu and the Qin officers and soldiers stationed in the north of Yan County are not fuel-efficient lamps. Unless the Huns had the courage to concentrate a large number of forces to break through the Great Qin Empire's defense system on the Great Wall north of Yan County, and move southward in a big way, and even Yingbu could not react to break through an important fulcrum, Zhang Jiashi would lose in this battle.
However, even if the Huns killed the people north of Yan County, that is, the original Yuyang County and the area along the Great Wall of Liaoxi County, and left, as long as the Donghu people were not destroyed and annexed by the Huns, the Great Qin Empire could still bear such a price.
Because the defense system of the Great Qin Empire in the northeast region will become relatively complete under this strategic trend.
Zhang Jiashi was reluctant to trade people's lives for peace on the border and a more secure environment, but in order to avoid greater losses, Zhang Jiashi had to accept such an outcome.
...................................................... Dividing Line................................................
On June 5, 201 B.C., in a steppe area located about the east of Siping, 60,000 Xiongnu knights led by King Zuoxian of the Xiongnu and 30,000 knights of Zabehe, the king of Donghu, were engaged in a bloody battle.
The two sides fought from early morning to about three o'clock in the afternoon, because of the difference in numbers, although the Donghu troops were equipped with a lot of more advanced equipment than the Huns, they were still gradually suppressed by the Huns, and the casualties were getting bigger and bigger.
But King Zuo Xian was not much relieved that the battle situation was in his favor, because he had to frown at the heavier casualties of the Hun warriors under his command.
In this grassland, the shouts of killing continued, and in the area where the two sides had fought or were still fighting, there were many corpses of knights or war horses on both sides, and the seriously wounded between the two sides groaned weaker and weaker without timely treatment, until there was no sound at all.
And in this grassland, many of the weeds that are gradually thickening are watered with blood, and perhaps after more than a month, these weeds will grow even more luxuriant.
Zabekh was very sad that his remaining strength was wiped out a lot by the Huns again, and now Donghu is no longer the same as before, and the loss of these personnel seems to be like countless arrows inserted into his heart.
It's just that after a few Donghu knights rode their horses and told Zabehe a piece of news, a relaxed smile appeared on the face of the much older Donghu king: "It's finally here, maybe it's because Changshengtian doesn't want to see our Donghu become slaves of the Huns." ”
After saying this, Zabekh couldn't help but lift his spirits, and then roared loudly: "Sons, our reinforcements are coming, let these damned Huns see how powerful we are!!"
Zabekh's words successfully mustered the will of the Donghu people to fight again.
The remnants of the Donghu people paid a great price, but in the end they also succeeded in blocking the further offensive of the Huns.
And before King Zuo Xian knew what the reason was, what he saw was that in the southern area, nearly 10,000 Qin army knights were leading, at least more than a thousand chariots and more Qin army infantry, and countless banners with white characters on a black background were like waves, gradually coming north......
