Chapter 19: There is chaos in the Han land
"Entering like a mountain peach skin bush, placing like a sea like a formation, attacking like a chisel and fighting."
This is the essence of the Mongolian army in later generations, and there is a kind of crow soldier scattering array formation that lures the enemy, traps the enemy, and fatigues the enemy, and an assault formation of a large fish scale array.
These things are like Sun Tzu's Art of War, knowing is knowing, but whether you can be flexible and adapt to the situation depends on your personal ability. In later games, the value of more than 90 and 60 or 70 of the command power was often used to distinguish the gap between the famous generals and the mediocre generals.
In fact, the gap between them is not that big, if you deal with it well, you are a famous general, and if you don't deal with it well, you are a mediocre general. Therefore, between the famous general and the mediocre general, there is just a layer of paper.
Temujin used it to run rampant all over the world, but the Mongols used it in the early Ming Dynasty but retreated thousands of miles. It's not that there is any difference between the two methods, but that there is a lack of spirit and life between the two. If He Bai can use this tactic very flexibly and use him alive, he will basically be invincible in this era.
If you use the Mongols' tactics, then you will exclusively use the elite, because this tactics have high requirements for the ability of individual soldiers and higher requirements for coordination. It can often drag and trap an army of 10,000 people with 100 horses, and a thousand horses can spread out a land of 100 miles. Eight hundred falls with eight hundred rides are sufficient.
On the main weapon bow and arrow, the Han bow is mostly an iron-tired hard bow, with a long range, up to three hundred meters, an effective range of two hundred meters, and armor can be pierced within one hundred meters, but the rate of fire is very slow, and the strength required is large.
Although the range of the Xiongnu horn bow commonly used by the Wuhuan people is only two-thirds of that of the Han bow, and it takes forty or fifty steps, that is, sixty or seventy meters to break through the armor, the rate of fire is very fast, and it is about the same as the Mongolian bow. Anyway, the Mongols don't have to attack hard tactically, and they can almost be done.
On the secondary weapon, the Wuhuan people mostly use bone and wooden sticks, which is because of the lack of iron tools, so they have to do it as a last resort. After returning to the Han Land, He Bai will be armed with spears and sabers, believing that the attack power can be extremely strong.
After the planning was completed, He Bai picked out 800 elite horsemen and divided them into 800 teams, in addition to himself, Fu Xing, and Cheng Zhang, he also specially appointed five Han guards as centurions, and 24 Han and Wu warriors as the captains of the 30-man team, and let the slaves choose their own commanders and captains, which were considered to be an army.
As a strong army of the future, it needs strict discipline to be invincible. However, among the famous generals in the feudal era, killing was often used as a means to strictly enforce military discipline. This method was admired by most of the famous generals in ancient China, anyway, they just don't treat the soldier as a person, just treat him as an obedient tool.
Just as Wei Yuzi once said: Those who are good at using soldiers in ancient times can kill half of the soldiers, then kill the thirteenth, and kill the eleventh. Those who can kill half of it, Weigahaine; Kill the thirteen, and force the princes; Kill the eleven, and order the soldiers.
It was not someone else's soldier who slain, but his own soldiers. Coupled with extremely heavy rewards, this can make the soldiers under his command brave and brave to fight without fear of death.
He Bai thought to himself, if the military law of Yue Fei and Qi Jiguang, the most well-known in later generations, was to govern the army, the regiment that he used to be a soldier would only be killed by everyone. Even now, half of the 800 elite horsemen under his command will be killed.
However, as a modern soldier in later generations, of course He Bai could not act so brutally, in addition to governing the army with three disciplines and eight points of attention, he also strictly managed the army with the behavior regulations of later generations. He also appointed Fu Xing as chief of staff and Cheng Zhang as chief of education, that is, the political commissar of later generations. It also takes a variety of loyalty, fearlessness, dedication, and arrogance as the slogan, supplemented by complete logistical support and pension means. After a month of rough training in the snow, he finally became an army.
There was no snow on this day, and it was a great day to present the flag. He Bai summoned all the men, women, and children, and in full view of everyone, awarded each team a triangular white-edged black eagle-like flag with a red background and a width of three feet. Each hundred-person tun is awarded a four-foot triangular white border with a red background and a black eagle-like flag. In the end, He Bai's general flag was a three-zhang high, six-foot-high, eight-foot-wide gold-edged red background black eagle-like quadrangular flag, and the army was named the Martial Fighting Blood Horse.
As soon as the newly established Martial Arts Warriors held a grand banquet, including slaves, Wu Yan led a few people to hurry over.
Wu Yan panted and found He Bai, his face showed ecstasy, and he asked, "Brother He Bai, has your army been trained?" Qiu Liju's uncle had a message from Pegasus, saying that Zhang Ju and Zhang Chun, the tycoons of Yuyang's family, raised troops against the Han half a month ago, and called on all of our three counties Karasuma to rebel. Uncle Qiu Liju said that with Zhang Ju and Zhang Chun as the guides, he will definitely get great benefits when he goes to Han this time. ”
"I heard that the Zhang army has captured most of Yuyang County and is currently looting thistle, and the other Karasuma tribes who got the news earlier have led their people to the Han land. Anyway, let's be faster. ”
He Bai frowned and asked, "But what about the lock department?" Leave him alone? ”
Uyan danced with his big hands and shouted, "Isn't it? Brother He Bai, as a Han Chinese, don't you know the prosperity of the Han land? If we go and plunder one or two Han villages at will, we will get far more wealth than the Kesuo'er Department. But the lock is a hard bone, and the Han people are a group of lambs, you don't even understand this, right? ”
He Bai was silent for a while, and said: "You go first, I have responded to the order of Lord Yuezhang, and I must destroy the Kesuo'er Department first." ”
Wu Yan was puzzled when he heard it, and repeatedly persuaded him, He Bai just shouldn't, and Wu Yan had no choice but to leave in a hurry.
Fu Xing and Chengzhang gathered together and asked, "How is it?" Let's just watch the Wuhuan people invade the Han land? ”
He Bai sucked his teeth and said: "There are not many records of this chaos in history, so it can be seen that it is not a big mess. The rebels and Wuhuan people were easily defeated by Gongsun Zhan, if it weren't for Gongsun Zhan's rash advance, he would not have been trapped in Guanzi City for 200 days, and he would not have delayed for long. Let's not care about him, let's destroy the Ke Suo'er Department first, and then talk about it, which can be regarded as repaying Qiu Liju's kindness. ”
Fu Xing and Chengzhang wanted to speak and stopped, and finally didn't say anything, and everyone continued the banquet.
In the Yanshan Mountains, in the later generations of Luanping County, the 700 people of the Kesuo'er Department were defeated by the Qiu Liju Department and fled to Shanggu County in embarrassment. Unexpectedly, he was intercepted halfway by Yuyang's Wuyan Department halfway, and lost a lot. In the end, he had no choice but to hide in the deep mountains, and he was trapped in the village, which was nearly two months.
Seeing the heavy snowfall, it was stable in the earth and stone village, but the cattle, sheep and horses had little forage, and in these dozens of days, a large number of people died of hunger. But Suo'er had no choice but to order most of them to be killed, made into jerky, and make forage for the war horses. In the end, only 3,000 sheep, 200 cattle, and more than 1,000 horses were left as breeding stock.
But when Suo'er looked at the only remaining breeding animals in the ministry and the less than 400 tribesmen, his heart was dripping blood. A momentary mistake in decision led to the near extinction of the tribe. But the Suo'er Department is now with the Qiu Liju Department, and the Wuyan Department can be said to be as deep as the sea, and there is only one way to go to the dark. It is hoped that when he takes refuge in the captain of Wuhuan, the captain will give a large amount of food to his tribe because of his loyalty and reluctance to attack the Han Dynasty, so as to help his tribe tide over the difficulties of the past two years. Otherwise......
"Report ...... But Lord Suo'er, the sentinels of the Wuyan Department have disappeared outside the village, and the main roads in the west have not seen the troops blocking the road of the Wuyan Department. In addition, on the mountain road leading to the direction of Gubeikou in Yuyang County twenty miles away, a large number of traces of cavalry were found, which passed a few days ago, and there were about 10,000 people. ”
"What?" But Suo'er was surprised and delighted when she heard this, and hurriedly grabbed the collar of the sentry and asked, "Is the situation true?" The Wuyan Department is only more than 800 people, where are there as many as 10,000 horsemen? Unless...... Unless his entire clan has migrated to Yuyang County. No, even if it is a raid, it is only a good army, and the people are not with him, how can he go to the whole tribe? Isn't he afraid that after the Han army defeats him, all the people will be lost? ? ”
"I don't know about this."
"Could it be that there was a great chaos in the Han land, the Han army was too busy to take care of itself, and after Wuyan attacked our department, he was afraid that I would take advantage of the situation to counterattack his department, so the entire tribe went to the Han land?" But Suo'er said to himself, turned around and shouted: "Go to all the sentinels quickly, don't be afraid of casualties, explore fifty miles away, don't necessarily find out if there are other tribes around." ”
"Yes, Lord Ke'er."
Within two days, Ke Suo'er received a report that ten miles away from the original garrison of the Wuyan Ministry, there was a tribe with a black eagle flag on a red background in Phnom Penh, about 800 villages, and a large number of cattle, sheep and horses. There were only signs of the lives of women and children, the old and the weak, and there was no trace of the young and strong riders.
But Suo'er was puzzled, the tribe of the black eagle flag with a red background in Phnom Penh? There are tribes with eagles as flags, but they are not here, and they are not the red flag of Phnom Penh. Since the garrison is not far from the Wuyan Tribe, it must be a good tribe. But there is no young man in the ministry, why is this?
Could it be that he followed the Wuyan tribe to the Han land, and he held that he had no enmity with the headquarters, thinking that our troops would not attack him, so he carelessly led the young and strong cavalry into the Han land? Or are they just coming here and don't know about the existence of the headquarters? I also learned that there was chaos in the Han land, and the Wuyan Department was not here, so I went carelessly?
Ke Suo'er thought for a long time, a strange tribe appeared here, although it can arouse Ke Suo'er's vigilance, but Ke Suo'er's livestock has been lost, if there is no one to help, and if you don't do looting, you have to completely decline.
Finally, Ke Suo'er made up his mind, personally led the only remaining 500 elite horsemen to investigate, and ordered the other men, women, and children to strictly guard the wooden village, and not to open the door until the news of their own return.
All the way sneakily went straight to the location of the tribe with the red background and black eagle flag in Phnom Penh. But Suo'er's eyes flashed with a cold glint, if, if his department was really unprepared, and the young and strong rode out, don't blame this adult for being ruthless. It is common for the various tribes of the Wuhuan people to kill each other, and without the protection of the friendly tribes, they will all be exhausted, and you are only to blame for being too careless.
