CHAPTER XIII
readx;?? The Donghu people did not send people to pursue, but it did not mean that An Ran led the remaining soldiers to return to the southern part of the Great Qin State south of the Great Wall. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info than odd small said net first hair
However, it is clear to everyone, including Zhang Jiashi, that this is not to say that the Donghu people are indifferent to the attack they have encountered.
The Donghu people did not act this time, and it should be said that the Donghu people were accumulating their greatest strength, and then went south on a large scale in one fell swoop.
Zhang Jiashi, who returned to Dingxiang, immediately ordered the various county guards under his command to prepare to rely on the Great Wall to deal with the all-out offensive of the Donghu people.
With such an arrangement, what Zhang Jiashi was worried about was not the defense of other Great Wall locations, nor the defense of the Great Wall north of Dingxiang City.
Rather, it is located in the gap of the Great Wall in Youbeiping County, which was scrapped by the Donghu people last time.
The county soldiers of Youbeiping and the restoration of the Great Wall, although with the efforts of the new county guard Deng Qi of Youbeiping, proceeded quite quickly.
However, the fact that the Great Wall is easy to repair does not mean that the losses in the last battle of Youbeiping County can be replenished in such a month or two.
The garrison soldiers of the Great Wall are not ordinary civilians, as a comprehensive existence between the regular army of the Northern Frontier Army and the local county soldiers, the garrison guards are often under the command of a small number of Northern Frontier Corps, assisting in the defense of the Great Wall inside and outside the first line.
Their formation is considered to be within the Northern Frontier Army, but the nature is closer to the militia that resembles the existence of county soldiers.
This is one of the realities that Zhang Jiashi was able to understand after arriving in his command area.
Great Qin's Northern Army, with only one-third, that is, about 100,000 troops, is a completely professional elite. The other more than 200,000 are more county soldiers from the mainland.
It's not that the Qin Dynasty doesn't have the money or resources to form an elite army of 300,000 people, but such an elite number is not suitable for one or two people to command.
Zhang Jiashi could vaguely understand that Fusu was sent to the Northern Army as a supervisor, which was more of a constraint on Yingzheng's increasingly powerful forces.
......
After returning to the barracks north of Dingxiang, Zhang Jiashi convened a meeting of the entire Liaodong County, with two or five hundred officers of the rank of chief and above.
This time, the troops under his command were divided into two groups, and they went out of the Great Wall pass in the north of Dingxiang and entered the territory of Donghu to fight, and paid a considerable price.
Including the destroyed chariots, the loss of war horses was nearly 1,500, a number that made Zhang Jiashi's eyelids beat involuntarily for a while.
The various bows, crossbows, arrows and arrows brought out were even more than half consumed, not to mention, almost all the weapons and armor of the dead in battle, and more than 100 carriages of all kinds were damaged in battle.
Such a loss of consumption made Zhang Jiashi grin.
However, compared with these material losses that can be made up for in a certain period of time, more than 12,000 people were killed in battle, more than 3,000 were injured, and 13,000 people lost their combat effectiveness, which made Zhang Jiashi's face suddenly turn black.
"It's so miserable. Zhang Jiashi muttered this sentence.
You must know that most of these thirteen,000 people who have lost their combat effectiveness are well-trained Great Qin knights.
The losses of the troops he brought out to support were not too much.
Zhang Jiashi knew very well that if he hadn't accepted Bai Qi's admonition and didn't make those things, it would be one of the most important factors for the 10,000 cavalry army, together with Sima Qi, the county guard of Liaodong County, to sleep between the white mountains and black waters.
It's just that, as Bai Qi said, such a loss, compared to the decisive battle with the Huns later, which may be copied because some things were imitated, and the number of more heavy losses is completely an acceptable data.
Compared with such battle losses, Zhang Jiashi had to think about what he should do in the next battle.
But before he could say such a thing and hand it over to Chen Ping and them for discussion, the latter shook his head and signaled that he would stop here today.
Although Zhang Jiashi didn't know why Chen Ping would make such a hint, Zhang Jiashi, who knew that Chen Ping would not harm him, could only nod suspiciously, signaling that he would continue to meet tomorrow, and everyone would rest in a suitable place for a night tonight.
......
"Mr. Chen, I don't know why you want to stop the military discussion?" Zhang Jiashi looked at Chen Ping silently.
"Your Excellency, the fighting has come to a halt for the time being, and your lordship, like many soldiers, needs a well-rested rest. Although Chen Ping's tone was very calm, the next words let Zhang Jiashi know that Chen Ping really planned to "drive" him home.
"My lord, everything after that will be handed over to Ping and Xiao Gongcao and others, Ping and Xiao Gongcao will definitely not live up to the expectations of adults. ”
"Well, since it's all said and done, I can't go?" Zhang Jiashi nodded with a slight wry smile.
"In that case, everything is up to Mr. Chen and Mr. Xiao. ”
...................................................... Dividing Line................................................
Opposite to Zhang Jiashi, who rushed back to Dingxiang City south with his own personal guards, the mood of Zabehe, the king of Donghu, was not so good.
According to the statistics so far, more than 25 tribes of Donghu under the command of Zabekh, whether they obeyed his orders or obeyed him, were almost slaughtered. The tribal liaison farther north had not yet returned, and the situation in the south near the direction of the Great Wall of Qingou had not bothered to send someone to investigate carefully.
According to his conservative estimates, his Donghu people lost at least 200,000 people in this Qin Dog attack.
Excluding the old, weak, women and children among them, it is absolutely impossible for the young and strong people to be less than 70,000.
In addition, more than 10,000 people lost to block the Qingou reinforcements, and 20,000 people were lost in the siege of the Qingou breakthrough troops.
It can be said that the losses brought by Qin Gou to the young warriors of Donghu cannot be less than 100,000 people.
In the face of such a loss, even Donghu, which has millions of people, is a major loss that can not be made up in more than ten years.
Zabekh really wanted Qin Gou to pay for his debts, but his current strength was not enough to break through Qin Gou's Great Wall and then go south.
He also needed a longer time to concentrate more tribal warriors and give Qin Gou an even more devastating revenge.
However, it will take time.
......
The area where Zabeh was originally located was a steppe located on the border from Jilin to Heilongjiang in later generations.
This place is also a famous gathering place for ethnic minorities in the world where Zhang Jiashi was originally located, and in Chinese history.
However, Zabekh, who was lost in thought, closed his eyes and meditated alone, but soon forgot about the loss that had become a reality.
What he was even more curious about now was why Qin Gou would let Qin Gou use a large number of elite knights, who were quite valuable in their Donghu, to do these things.
The other party was killing people, not plundering people and livestock, except for some number of war horses, these Qin dogs almost saw something alive and could run, and directly killed them, which made him feel a little incredible.
"What is the other party doing this?" Zabekh muttered to himself.
Of course, Zabehe could not have imagined that Zhang Jiashi, a person who did not trust history very much, in order to protect himself, in order to open up a better base area, to prevent his Donghu tribe from being attacked by him when Zhang Jiashi was lacking skills.
To do this, the most direct way is to destroy Donghu or make the Donghu people suffer a lot of vitality.
Destroying Donghu? Such a thing, even Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty could not do it, not to mention that his current strength was not comparable to that of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Zhang Jiashi.
The cost of completely exterminating a nomadic people is not something that ordinary people can imagine.
Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty fought to the death with the Xiongnu, relying on the accumulation of Emperor Hui of the Han Dynasty, Empress Lu, Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty, Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.
But after decades of war, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty didn't have to come to Luntai because of the decadence of national strength in the later period?
It can be said that the elimination of a nation with a fairly large population is not something that a country can do in a decade or so.
But to destroy the population base of a nation, Zhang Jiashi can still do it, just as Zhang Jiashi said to Yingzheng. As long as the garrison of the Great Wall is allowed to resist the large-scale offensive of Donghu successfully, then the Donghu people will not be in trouble at all within more than ten years.
Although the white mountains and black waters are good, Zhang Jiashi is not very willing to develop the black soil in the northeast before the absolute strength to abolish the Donghu people.
His next target is North Korea, which is undoubtedly well-positioned as a springboard and rear base.
But it will take time to settle North Korea, no matter how easy it is.
Donghu people are not that kind of stupid people, if they don't hurt the other party, Zhang Jiashi will attack North Korea, and it is inevitable that there will be a lot less things in the house.
In this case, weakening the strength of the Donghu people is something that must be done.
......
Of course, Zabehe couldn't have thought of such a thing, and he was thinking about how he should deal with the next large-scale battle with Qin Gou.
In fact, even if they went south as far as possible, it was impossible for them to be like the Xiongnu, who were gathered together by Tou Mandanyu and then attacked.
No one knows the situation in Donghu better than Zabekh himself.
Although the national strength of Donghu has always been stronger than that of the Huns, the two sides will not fight until they have a chance to kill each other in one blow.
He didn't know that in Zhang Jiashi's original world, he took it lightly because of blackmail from Mao Dun, and finally died in the decline of the country.
He underestimated the ability of Maudun who dared to kill his father and seize the throne.
Beauty BMW can give, but things like land are the most important existence for many people, such as the Huns.
In fact, once the Donghu people asked for land, as long as the Huns wanted to get more pastures and slaves, they would inevitably fight to the death with the Donghu people.
On the other hand, for something like BMW Beauty, how many people will really work hard for Maoton?
Perhaps, Zabekh wanted to boil frogs in warm water at that time and gradually improve the fighting will of his Donghu tribe. Unfortunately, he miscalculated the object. As the male lord of the Huns, Mao Dun, who is much better than Toumandan, is not at all able to face the lax and careless Zabehe.
However, Zabehe should be glad that he was not the only one who suffered at the hands of Mao Dun, but he was the opposite of Liu Bang, the latter's luck and operation were quite good, and he saved his life, while he died and the country was declining.
...................................................... Dividing Line................................................
Just as he didn't know Zhang Jiashi's plans, now riding the red cloud and returning to his home in Dingxiang City, Zhang Jiashi couldn't know Zabeehe's thoughts.
For Zhang Jiashi, he does owe a lot to the people he loves.
On the way back, he figured out why Chen Ping would hint at him coming back.
It is inevitable to have a good relationship with your own family.
If Chen Ping knew Zhang Jiashi's thoughts at this time, he would say: "My lord, you only know one thing, but you don't know the other. Since the adults are crowned, they are also one of the mainstays of Great Qin, and since we should spread out and give birth to a few people who continue the bloodline, we will be more at ease. ”
Although the ancients of the pre-Qin period did not pay much attention to things like bloodline, once the person who served for them had their own children, many people would restrain their thoughts that they should not have.
This is also one of the important reasons why Chinese are paying more and more attention to blood rather than surname.
In the eyes of Chen Ping, Zhang Jiashi's most suitable successor is not surprisingly the sons-in-law of the two princesses.
If the older Yingxi gave birth to Zhang Jiashi's eldest son, it would be the most perfect thing.
Because once this situation occurs, many people will pay attention to Zhang Jiashi's eldest son.
Maybe something else will happen, but Zhang Jiashi is only about twenty years old now, and there is still a long time, Zhang Jiashi's sister-in-law is a more alternative guarantee for the people gathered under Zhang Jiashi's command.
But Chen Ping also thought about a very troublesome situation, if Ying Lian gave birth to Zhang Jiashi's eldest son first, and Ying Xi was a little late, and the age difference was not big, this would be the way to cause trouble in many ways.
Chen Ping, who can only comfort himself for a long time, doesn't know that the situation they think has also become a reality.
But they didn't expect that this problem would solve this problem that had been bothering them for some time in a way that they had never thought of.
......
Zhang Jiashi's wives and concubines, including Wang Yan and Sima Ya, who married each other, were all exchanging things in the main hall of the big house where Zhang Jiashi lived.
Zhang Jiashi heard the sound of talking from inside, and suddenly a prank idea came to him, that is, he listened to what the girls said, it seemed to be very interesting.
Zhang Jiashi didn't expect that the white wolf, who was enjoying Yingxi's touch, opened his eyes and looked at Zhang Jiashi's location after his ears moved, rolled his eyes, and continued to close his eyes to recuperate.
Because for some reason, when Zhang Jiashi's skills have improved to a certain extent, Ying Lian, who has a certain gap between his strengths, can't find out that Zhang Jiashi is eavesdropping on them.
She said faintly: "That bastard's surname is Zhang, he knows about war all day long, and my father didn't teach him to always live outside, but let us watch the house." I don't know how much it hurts us. Hmph!"
Ying Lian's words made several girls cover their mouths and laugh.
Wang Yan joked about Ying Lian, and whispered: "I don't know who it is, when I heard that my husband actually led the troops out again, I was so anxious that I was so anxious that I was fully armed, planning to run out, and I had to pull me up." ”
"Who worries about that one who has no conscience. Ying Lian's face turned slightly red, and then he snorted and laughed: "Hmph! I was going to look at that bastard's surname Zhang, would he hide a vixen in the army......
Before Ying Lian finished speaking, he was suddenly glanced at by the white wolf.
Looking at the white wolf, who had always seemed to be not quite right with her, she didn't know what to say after lying on the ground again and closing her eyes to recuperate.
She then muttered a sentence: "Xiaobai, I hurt you in vain." ”
The white wolf yawned angrily, then stood up and walked out of the hall door.
She and Ying Lian may really be incompatible by nature, but more, Ying Lian inadvertently said the three words of the fox spirit, which made her very unhappy.
She didn't give Ying Lian a slap in the face, but she gave Yingxi and Zhang Jiashi face.
Don't forget the identity of the white wolf, her mother is a nine-tailed fox.
Zhang Jiashi looked at the white wolf who came to him, gently touched the other party's head, and then walked in.
Because he doesn't want to hide now.
Seeing Zhang Jiashi coming in, Yingxi and other wives and concubines hurriedly got up and gave a light blessing.
After Zhang Jiashi asked them to sit down, he walked straight to the position of the head of the family and said, "What are you talking about?"
Ying Lian glanced at the white wolf lying at Zhang Jiashi's feet, and shook his head helplessly.
She didn't understand, she also liked the white wolf as much, but the other party was very close to everyone, but he ignored her.
Ying Lian, who didn't know the actual situation, had to smile slightly bitterly.
As one of the two housewives of the Zhang family, Yingxi suddenly remembered a thing with a quiet temperament, that is, Zhang Jiashi, Sima Ya, and Wang Yan's two concubines did not have a round house.
If such a thing spreads, the impact on Zhang Jiashi is not too great, but the impact on the Wang family and the Sima family is not a problem that can be avoided at all.
Perhaps, the two families will not do anything, but the relationship between them and the Zhang family will inevitably be estranged.
This kind of thing is a troublesome thing for Zhang Jiashi, who has no foundation to speak of.
Therefore, Yingxi pulled Ying Lian, who was sitting next to her, and after whispering a few words, she said under the pretext: "Husband, Xi and Lian are going to sleep with Huan'er tonight." ”
Although she was reluctant to do this, or said that she wanted to save a little with Zhang Jiashi, Ying Lian had to nod.
Zhang Jiashi didn't think about it carefully, so he nodded: "Since that's the case, you guys go to accompany Huan'er." ”
But he didn't expect that Yingxi would go on to say: "Husband, Yan'er and Ya'er will serve you tonight." What do you think?"
Zhang Jiashi was a little stunned, but then he remembered Chen Ping's hint, and finally nodded slightly......
...
