Chapter 0420: Go to War!
"Command all the departments, hurry here, and encircle them all!"
In the autumn and September of the sixth year of the Han Dynasty (28), Ma Yi was seventy-five miles, under an unknown hill;
After ordering the encirclement as quickly as possible, and making sure that there were no loopholes in this bowl-shaped semicircular encirclement, Jin She quickly ordered: All the troops who had previously dispersed to find the traces of the Huns quickly gathered on this hill!
Just a few hours later, this hill, which had already contained tens of thousands of Hun cavalry and had already shown some courage, completely fell into the heavy encirclement of nearly 100,000 soldiers and horses of the Han army.
And since the beginning of the war, the Liji Division, which has been 'mysteriously missing', has finally returned to the frontal battlefield.
"Marquis of Xinwu!"
"Captain Liwei!"
Seeing each other from a distance, Jin She and Liji hurriedly clamped the horse's belly and stepped forward;
When the two rode their horses to the position where they were five steps away from each other, the faces of the two generals, the old and the strong, immediately appeared with a look of excitement.
"- The last general, fortunately not dishonored!
”
Bowing his hand to Jin She, Liji was about to dismount, but saw Jin She hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop him, signaling that Liji was not in a hurry to dismount.
"The war is not over, and there are still important matters to discuss."
"Wei Wei is still quick to follow a certain and discuss it in the middle account!"
·
"Afternoon?"
Following Jin She to the Chinese army's tent set up two miles away from the bottom of the hill, hearing the attack time given by Jin She, Liji's face couldn't help but be a little surprised.
"Why the urgency?"
"The encirclement is complete, Hu Man has already planted his wings and cannot escape, why not let the soldiers repair a little, recuperate, and then attack and annihilate them with one blow?"
Although there was such a relatively peaceful tone on his lips, there was obviously a little dissatisfaction in Liji's heart.
Jin She brought out of Mayi City and swept the Guanzhong soldiers all the way north, needless to say;
——Lijisuo alone, these 5,000 tiger pawns, but they hurried south from Wuzhou, and they were camping step by step along the way, for fear of falling into the trap of the Huns, or being attacked by the Huns!
Just tightened the strings, step by step from Wuzhou to the south, to this hill to meet with the main force, and after making sure that the Huns had been surrounded, the hearts of the Huben soldiers were hanging high, and then they finally let go.
And at this moment, what Captain Huben needs is rest······
It is a necessary rest after carrying nearly 100 pounds per capita, and after marching for a day and a night on high alert······
"No!"
Unexpectedly, as soon as Li's voice fell, Jin She said in a deep voice, and his face was already full of grimness.
"A certain worry is the back of this mountain, or there is a secret way used by Han merchants to produce things!"
"If you make the chief of Di take the chance, he will escape along this secret passage······"
A meaningful reminder also made Liji's face tense suddenly, and she fell into a long thought.
Although at the moment, it is not certain that behind this hill, but the possibility of a similar is not to be said that there is no such thing.
Because for veterans like Liji and Jin She, what the Han border pass is like, both of them know very well.
- To put it nicely, call it the border guards;
To put it mildly, it's a sieve······
As for the reason for this, it is not so much that these border guards have no position, but that it is purely a matter of survival.
Just one thing is enough to explain this bizarre phenomenon;
- In the seventh year of Emperor Taizu Gao, the standard of food and salary for the border garrison troops of the Han army was one and a half stone of corn per person per month and a military salary of six hundred yuan per person per year.
Six years ago, Emperor Taizu Gao died, and now after Liu Ying succeeded to the throne, the biggest problem in Hanbian is that even the military rations of one and a half stones per person per month and the military salary of 600 yuan per person per year have been 'halved' for several years;
In order to improve the predicament faced by the border troops, Liu Ying, the Son of Heaven, also immediately ordered: The standard of one and a half stone of military rations per person per month and 600 yuan per person per year for the border troops should be restored, and on the basis of this, the Son of Heaven would be rewarded once every six months.
The content of the reward is uncertain.
Sometimes, it's '200 people eating one cow';
Sometimes, it's 'fifty people eating one pig';
At other times, it was grain, rice, cloth, and all kinds of daily necessities that could not be used by border guards, but could be sent home.
Overall, compared with the time of Emperor Taizu Gao, the current border troops have a much better life;
But even so, it is still difficult to ensure that every border guard has an extremely strong determination and principles to abide by all laws and regulations.
For example, unless the Son of Heaven is amnesty and the mission returns, no one is allowed to leave the Great Wall north······
"Wei Wei should also know: In the past few years, although the soldiers at the border pass have been a little better, the merchants and pawns colluded, and the traitors have never been cut off from the border."
"Especially in the clouds, because of the trade with Hu, and in this battle was the city gate, forcing our army to abandon the eucalyptus of 'fighting with Hu in the clouds', and garrisoned Mayi instead;"
"If the border pass is like this, then there may be a dark road on the back of this mountain, and the two of us have to guard against it!"
Just as he was thinking about it, Jin She's stern tone came into his ears, which also provoked Liji to nod again.
As a rare gap in the Great Wall of the Six Kingdoms, Mayi was originally the hardest hit area for Han merchants to enter and leave the grassland to 'smuggle for profit';
In addition, in the past, there were not many border guards stationed in Mayi, and only the county officials guarded the city gates, which made such a situation likely to become a common practice in Mayi.
- A certain merchant brought a convoy full of copper, iron, salt, tea, and other contraband to Mayi, and then 'negotiated' with a certain city gatekeeper, and then obtained permission to go north from Mayi;
But out of Mayi, between these merchants and the grassland, there is also a Wuzhou Sai.
Moreover, compared with those 'negotiable' county officials in Mayi, the guards in Wuzhou were all border guards;
If this businessman really swaggered closer to Wuzhousai, if he was lucky, he might be able to find a certain scum who was obsessed with money and open a 'convenient door' for himself;
But if he is unlucky, he is recognized as a spy of the Huns by the Wuzhou guards, and after a few volleys, the merchant will bury his bones and plug them, and his bones will be gone.
In this way, a path that can be used to reach the grassland from outside Mayi City without passing through Wuzhou Fortress has become very necessary.
- In the beginning, it was three or two small merchants, struggling through the mountains and forests;
Later, there were more people who knew about it, and everyone walked from here, and walked and walked, and they walked out of a road between the mountains and forests!
And such a road can bring more than ten times, or even dozens of times the huge profits to everyone who walks through······
"On the back of this mountain, there must be a plank road!"
Thinking of this, he saw Liji raise his head, look around for a while, and then stretched out his hand towards a mountain forest not far from the hill.
When Jin She followed Liji's gaze, he saw that the bushes of the mountain forest seemed to be obviously more washed than the surroundings?
"Detective!"
With a heavy sigh, the soldiers on the side hurriedly left, and after a while, they brought back the exact news.
- That mountain forest has been cut down!
And it was not a large-scale felling, but a few trees that were not too thick were scattered and looked at, leaving only the stumps that had withered at the moment.
After learning the news, Jin She's heart also sank completely······
"If there is a pile of broken wood, there must be Han merchants passing by;"
"Even if you dare to start a fire here, you will not be far from the dark path of the grassland."
"In this way, the back of this mountain is probably as Li Weiwei said: there is either a plank road on the cliff, or a secret path between the trees······
Hearing Jin She's words, Liji finally nodded heavily and bowed to Jin She;
As for the previous complaints such as 'Captain Huben is tired', he was immediately thrown aside by Liji.
"Please also believe in Wuhou!"
"What should we do about this battle?!"
Seeing that Liji was willing to support herself, Jin She's grim face immediately swelled with a little warmth;
But after a moment, that fleeting warmth was replaced by unquestionable determination.
"According to a certain point of view, if you are not in a hurry to fight, it will only take three days at most, and now there are tens of thousands of Hu cavalry trapped in this siege, I am afraid that they may all escape!"
"——From the Di chieftain's porridge, even if it has been besieged by us, it will never be released again!"
"A certain meaning: all the pawns that can be called are here in the starry night; During this period, the captain of the guard department can be slightly repaired. ”
"At most, after noon, the second school of Huben and Yulin should rise to the challenge and move towards the Hu camp!
! ”
The tone was full of seriousness, and Jin She finally stretched out his hand and patted Liji's shoulder.
"If you are to others, you may have to speak more;"
"After the Marquis of Ran Wei Gong Gate, he was the founding father of the Han Dynasty, which is very powerful, so there is no need to say much."
"——The victory or defeat of this battle is related to the peace of the border wall of my Han family for more than ten years!"
"I also hope that Captain Liwei will help a certain arm to do this immortal achievement!
! ”
After speaking, I saw that Jin She, regardless of his age, actually bowed to this junior······
"The Ancient God Emperor"
In front of Jin She, hearing Jin She's words, and seeing Jin She's posture, Liji also hurriedly stepped forward and helped Jin She, who was about to bow down, up.
When Jin She straightened up with a solemn expression, Li Ji subconsciously wanted to say something;
But after a while, I saw that Liji pursed her lips and completely put what she wanted to say back into her stomach.
Stretching out his hand and bowing deeply to the old lady in front of him, Liji turned over and got on his horse and headed towards the headquarters of Captain Huben not far away.
A moment later, a shout to the sky sounded from there, and the words clearly entered Jin She's ears······
"—Pawn of the Tiger!"
"—All armored!
”
"—Prepare for this decisive battle!
! ”
·
Just after noon, the sun of the latter autumn had just passed directly above the head, slightly to the west, and under the hills, there were long trumpets of the Han army, as well as a compact sound of war drums.
And on the top of the hill, looking at the nearly 10,000 soldiers who were covered in gloomy iron light and holding strange weapons in their hands, their eyes couldn't help but swell with a touch of understanding.
"It should be this Han army, which defeated the 2,000 warriors of Wuzhou Sena······"
"Those crossbowmen in the back should be the Han crossbows under the city of Ma Yi and the heavy defeat of the Lou Fu Department······"
Thinking about it secretly, the porridge was full of color.
Only the hand that is on his waist and holding the sword soldier can slightly reveal his desire for the next fierce battle······
"Go ahead with the plan;"
"Lou Fu, Zhelan, and Aries are divided into three parts."
"Zhelan charged head-on, and then hand-to-hand combat;"
"The building is roundabout on both sides, hunting freely;"
"As for the ······ of the Aries Department"
His eyes were firmly locked on the hill, and the array of Han troops that were quickly gathered couldn't help but turn his head, looking solemnly at the side of the Aries King, who was preparing to attack.
"-We must find a way to break through the Han Chinese defense line from the flank!"
"If you can, it's better to attract some Han Chinese to leave;"
"But if the Han people don't catch up, the Aries King definitely doesn't have to come back!"
"Take the warriors of the Aries tribe, go to the clouds and the grassland as quickly as possible, and bring enough soldiers and horses to compete with the Han people, and then come back to support us······"
Listening to the solemn entrustment, the Aries King was stunned for a moment, and then nodded heavily.
- Compared with the terrifying frontal combat power of the Oriran Division, and the annoying building with archery on the shelves, the fighting method of the Aries Warriors' 'return shot' is really a bit limited;
Especially when encountering the Han army, which is mainly infantry and cannot catch up with the cavalry at all, or even probably will not pursue the cavalry directly, the Aries people's 'kite to death' horseback shooting tactics are often difficult to come in handy.
Because no matter whether you see the Daxu of the Aries Department or not, after the Aries Department breaks out, the Han people are likely to choose to give up the pursuit;
In such a situation, even if the Aries Department after breaking out of the encirclement and attacking from outside the encirclement to relieve the pressure faced by the friendly forces still in the encirclement, it is likely to be useless.
- Han Chinese, they just can't catch up with the cavalry!
If the cavalry did not want to run, but stupidly rushed head-on to the Han infantry array, then the outcome of the battle would hardly be a second ······
For the three departments of Zhelan, Lou Fu, and Bai Yang, each of them did the task arrangement of 'Zhelan hand-to-hand combat, Lou Fu point shot, and calling people after the Aries broke through', and the porridge lightly clamped the groom and stepped forward a little;
After taking a closer look at the array of the Han army, he finally decided: take a good look at what this first battle will be.
It stands to reason that even if it has fallen into the encirclement of the Han Chinese, this kind of encirclement of 'tens of thousands of infantry surrounds tens of thousands of cavalry' is not at all possible to say who is surrounding whom;
In addition, there was a 'back road', and he could have not been in a hurry to participate in the war, and he could have handed over the specific combat tasks to his subordinates, Dezhelantu, Jebe and others.
But for some reason: when he saw the thousands of soldiers in iron armor and holding strange iron knives, a trace of instinctive fear suddenly arose in his heart!
And this kind of fear is something that I have never experienced before······
"Let me see what the Han people who can use 5,000 people to wipe out 2,000 Hun cavalry are······
Uttering such a murmur, the gaze of the porridge was still locked on the foot of the hill, the iron armor and iron knife formation that had already opened the formation;
With a slight raising of his hand, thousands of Zhelan cavalry, whining and screaming, sped past the side of the soothing and swooped down the hill.
- This is the most intuitive troop advantage of cavalry in the face of infantry!
In front of the cavalry, which has great kinetic energy and is telling the movement, the only thing the infantry can do is to try to dodge, so as not to be hit alive by the galloping horses······
