Zheng Zhuang, who successfully succeeded Jing Zhaoyin, was busy expanding the second phase of the new city in the direction of Afang Palace.

It was Ning Cheng who served as the magistrate of Chang'an County, but his job was to fill the population into the new city as soon as possible.

If there is no one in a city, it is a ghost town, and it has no meaning to exist.

For Ning Cheng, the most convenient way is to relocate the people from various mausoleums around Chang'an City to the new city, but Li Yunze is not allowed to forcibly move, so he can only do so voluntarily.

But people live well in Lingyi, they have a house to live in, and they have a way to do business, so how can they run to the new city to start over if there is no benefit.

After all, we all know that there is no one in Xincheng now, and we can't do any business in the past.

Ning Cheng was also anxious, even if he offered a lot of benefits, there were still few responders.

Until Wei Qing led the troops to battle this time, Ning Chengcheng seemed to have found a life-saving straw and asked to see Wei Qing on the road.

"General Hou."

After the salute, Ning Cheng knew that Wei Qing couldn't delay time, so he quickly said to Wei Qing on horseback, "Please send the generals to Chang'an New City to settle all the prisoners captured in this battle." ”

If nothing else, this battle will inevitably be followed by a large number of prisoners.

In the Yan Kingdom, anyone who can have something to do with the King of Yan is within the scope of the imperial court's soldiers and horses.

Of course, those who are close basically don't have to think about it, it's dead.

But those who are far away, or simply implicated, are basically the fate of a migration pass.

According to the usual practice, the local wealthy families and wealthy merchants in all counties of Yan Kingdom were among the migrators.

That's what Liu Bang did when he pacified the king with a different surname everywhere.

Wei Qing on horseback thought for a moment and nodded in response, "Yes." ”

Ning Cheng's hanging heart finally fell.

He saluted Wei Qing again, and then hurriedly retreated to the side of the road, watching the army pass by.

Li Yunze is bent on building a strong cavalry, and the equipment treatment in all aspects is top-notch.

The most striking thing is that the cavalry is equipped with three horses as standard.

A pack horse used to transport military supplies.

A riding horse, used for transportation.

A war horse that is used to charge into battle on the battlefield.

In the past, the cavalry of Middle-earth was basically a horse, and the cavalry relied on a horse to fight the world.

When the two sides are compared, the gap is immediately apparent.

In terms of equipment alone, the cavalry innovation promoted by Li Yunze has an obvious generation gap.

In addition to the cavalry equipped with three horses, the most elite thousands of cavalry were equipped with steel plate armor, the core of which was the 1,000 elite cavalry that Li Yunze had trained in Zhongshan Kingdom.

Now the scale has expanded, and it has expanded to nearly 4,000 horsemen, and their war horses are even dressed in horse armor.

The rest of the cavalry was also equipped with iron Liangdang armor, that is, two pieces of iron were tied with cowhide and other objects to protect the front and back.

It's not that you can't equip better iron armor, but to save weight.

In terms of weapons, cavalry has popularized the cavalry lance and the improved ring-headed sword. In addition, you can also choose to ride a bow or crossbow, in addition, weapons such as flails, throwing guns, and bones are also selected by yourself.

Then there is the cavalry three-piece set, stirrups, saddles, and horseshoes.

The improvement of the combat effectiveness of the cavalry by these three types of equipment is naturally self-evident.

More than 10,000 cavalry with tens of thousands of horses pulled out of the vast queue and rumbled straight to Fenglingdu.

Wei Qing almost pulled away the cavalry inside and outside Chang'an City, and as for the once glorious chariots, they had been directly removed, and the horses were transferred to the cavalry.

After Li Yunze got out the van, a general once said that the chariot was still of great use and should be reused.

But Li Yunze knew that the soldiers who had extremely high requirements for the terrain were destined to be eliminated, unless they had internal combustion engines.

Therefore, he directly classified all the vans into the sequence of the infantry, and all the chariots were removed.

It is to defeat the Huns in the proudest and strongest aspects of them!

On the march, Wei Qing had been thinking about how to fight this battle.

If it is simply to deal with Liu Dingguo, the king of Yan, then there is no need for Wei Qing to come forward.

Although the Yan Kingdom is a feudal country, it is also a feudal country of the Han Dynasty.

The people in the country, even the officials and soldiers, naturally most of them are oriented to the big man.

Gongsun Ao brought thousands of men and horses over, which was enough to pacify Liu Dingguo.

Therefore, the main purpose of this battle is the Huns invited by King Yan.

The first thing Wei Qing thought of was the battle that followed Li Yunze to break the Xiongnu court in Taiyuan County.

This is also the battle in which he became famous in the first battle and was crowned a marquis for his merits, which is naturally impressive.

'Lure the enemy deep, let the Huns in, and then go out to cut off their way back.'

This tactic is actually very simple, and it can be summed up as luring the enemy into depth, gathering and annihilating him.

If he was a general of another army, he had already sent an envoy to order the defenders of the Great Wall Army to open an opening and let the Huns in.

But Wei Qing was kind-hearted, and he couldn't bear the people of Yan Country to be ravaged by the Huns, so he didn't make up his mind for a long time.

When he went all the way north, crossed the land of the Sanjin River Valley, and was about to enter the Hebei Plain from Taihang Bacheng, Gongsun Ao urgently sent a military intelligence document from Jicheng.

"Liu Dingguo really deserves to die!"

After reading the official document, even Wei Qing, who has always been known for his good temper, was angry and scolded.

Gongsun Ao said in the official document that after receiving the order, he went north from Jibei and entered the territory of Yan first, waiting for Zhidu to join Wei Qing's soldiers and horses.

But not long after he led his troops into the territory of Yan State, he met the scattered county soldiers, and after inquiry, he learned that Liu Dingguo, the king of Yan, went straight to the right Beiping out of Jicheng, and broke several passes in the right Beiping with the Xiongnu Dadan in the back and outside.

The Huns poured into all parts of Yan like a tide, burning and looting like a tide.

The local county soldiers were caught off guard and were defeated and scattered.

As for the Great Wall Corps on the borders of the counties, they were all holding on to their own defense areas until they received orders.

This kind of practice of luring people into the country really aroused the anger of everyone.

Under the scolding of the captains, they all asked Wei Qing to fight.

Wei Qing, who calmed down, did not rush to lead the troops out of Taihang and went straight to Yan Kingdom, but turned around to look at the map.

At this time, the position of his soldiers and horses had passed through Shangdang County and was in Taiyuan County.

With Li Yunze's entry into Chang'an City and his ascension to the throne as emperor, the previous Zhongshan Kingdom was naturally removed from the country and divided into various counties and counties under the direct jurisdiction of the imperial court.

After studying the map for a while, Wei Qing quickly made a decision in his heart.

"Ladies and gentlemen."

Wei Qing summoned everyone to the map, and stretched out his finger on the Great Wall, "This general intends to surprise the army, go north to Daijun to bypass the upper valley, Yuyang to the right Beiping, and cut off the retreat of the Huns!" ”

As soon as everyone heard it, they understood that this was a copy of the original Son of Heaven's broken military minister Shan Yu.

There are always people who like to say that when they are fighting, they do not dare to innovate according to the rules, and they are fighting according to the old experience of the past.

But the reason why old experience is called experience is because it has been tested by success.

Anything can happen on the battlefield, and following successful experience is the safest choice.

As for those unconventional and surprising victories, there are indeed some, but in the history of the thousand-year war, how much success can there be?

Everyone responded with approval, saying that what General Hou said was very true, and he should fight like this.

Wei Qing, who had made up his mind, immediately sent a messenger to send a letter to Gongsun Ao and Zhidu, asking them to defend Jicheng no matter what, and never let this big city in the north fall into the hands of the Huns.

The crime of losing a famous city, that is really fatal.

Immediately, a wave of envoys was sent to give orders to the soldiers of all counties and counties of Yan State, asking them to guard their places and fight against the Huns who entered the country.

He also sent messengers to Changshan, Hejian, Qinghe and other places near Yan to inform them of the affairs of Yan and let them be on guard.

After arranging these, Wei Qing simply threw away the accompanying people neatly, and led the whole army to start the cavalry mobile attack mode.

On a normal march, the cavalry does not even move faster than the foot soldiers.

But once you start a long-distance raid without considering the losses and costs, it will be five hundred miles in three days, and one thousand miles in six days.

Of course, Wei Qing chose many mountain roads, and it was difficult to achieve this level, but it was definitely a fast gallop.

According to the tradition of the Han army, near the camp of the regular army, a large group of civilian armed forces would gather after them.

Most of these people are composed of local rangers, sons of unsuccessful families, and unpopular sons of noble families.

Their purpose is very simple, that is, to follow the regular army to fight and change their fate by virtue of their military exploits.

This time, the militia from all over the country who came with the Wei Qing army numbered as many as tens of thousands.

And among them, there is one person who is recommended by everyone to be the leader, and they are willing to obey his orders.

"Li Gong!"

Li Guang, who was sitting by the fire drinking wine and eating barbecue, saw someone running over in a hurry, so he smiled and said, "Sit down and eat." ”

"Li Gong!" The people who came jumped to their feet in a hurry, "I can't eat, Wei Qing's soldiers and horses have already left the camp quickly!" All of them were dismissed outright. ”

Li Guang, once an official to the county guard, a general of the Han Dynasty who was the captain of the Weiyang Palace.

It's a pity that when Chang'an Palace changed, it was framed by Wang Wan and others, which led to very serious consequences.

According to Han Law, it should have been cut directly.

But Li Yunze was merciful, and he remembered that he was an unintentional mistake, so he forgave him for his capital crime.

After that, Li Guang's family sold his family property and paid a fine to exempt him from his living crime.

However, although the person was released, the family property was gone, and the title of war that had been fought for many years was naturally gone.

For Li Guang, he has fought all his life, and he knows nothing but fighting.

Fortunately, I had friends to help, but I wasn't too down.

When Wei Qing's army set out, Li Guang immediately took his family and friends to follow him all the way, hoping to return to the army by winning military merits on the battlefield.

Knowing that Wei Qing's army was in a hurry to march and set off, and he didn't even bring the people, Li Guang immediately understood that something big had happened, and rushed to the battlefield eagerly.

He quickly got up, raised his hand and touched the grease on his mouth, "Gather the brothers, the great battle is just around the corner!" ”

A group of militiamen quickly assembled and followed Li Guang to pursue Wei Qing's army.

These militiamen who want to make meritorious contributions may not know that Li Guang's most magical ability is to get lost.
