Killing chickens and setting an example for monkeys, no matter where you put it, is universal.

After Wuyan Muchi cut off the heads of a large number of tribal leaders, the remaining barbarians were too frightened to breathe.

However, Wuyan Muchi did not kill any more people, and still announced the establishment of a new barbarian battalion.

The Xinman Battalion is temporarily divided into two battalions, one hundred and seven hundred and sixty-three people, forming ten thousand-man teams, and the left and right two battalions each have jurisdiction over five thousand-man teams.

The managers of the left and right battalions were called captains, so that, although they managed the same number of personnel, they were one level lower in their positions than the managers of the two cavalry battalions and the two infantry battalions.

After Wuyan Muchi completed the reorganization of the people and horses, he immediately devoted himself to rigorous training. According to Ma Shuo's requirements, the training must be very strict, and if anyone dares to disobey the order, they can directly cut off their heads.

Because these barbarians originally came from different tribes, and their discipline was much different, the first content of the training was organizational discipline. And the best way to train organizational discipline is to stand in a military posture and run in a team.

An hour's military posture and an hour's long-distance run every day will be the regular task of the Xinman's battalion, and the soldiers who cannot complete the task will have nothing to eat, and they will be connected to the collective. The first stage, in terms of tithes. After a while, in teams of hundreds.

The purpose of the punishment is to cultivate a sense of teamwork. Competition is needed, and unity is even more needed. Ma Shuo didn't want his new barbarian battalion to remain a rabble, he needed these barbarians to be reborn and become real warriors, qualified warriors, excellent warriors.

The high-intensity training of the Xinman's battalion also directly stimulated the soldiers of the other four battalions, a group of prisoners could actually do that to that extent, they were regular Great Qin border troops, how could they lag behind, they had to increase their intensity and surpass those captive soldiers.

As a result, a new upsurge in military training was voluntarily set off in the other four battalions.

Big waves and high-intensity training must be something that some people can't adapt to. Taking this opportunity, whether it was the left cavalry battalion or the right cavalry battalion, or the left and right infantry battalions, some people were brushed down. These brushed down people, Ma Shuo unified them to join the baggage battalion, since they can't become combatants, then honestly be a logistics staff!

When the various battalions were in full swing to strengthen training, Ma Shuo simply became the shopkeeper. The management ability of those commanders has been fully proven, and it is enough to reassure Ma Shuo. Don't worry about training, Ma Shuo focused on the analysis of intelligence.

During these days, the information transmitted by the hidden guards and scouts is still very rich.

When barbarians appeared on Xiaolongkou's side, there were also traces of barbarians at several other passes that could enter Huangsha City, but the number of barbarians in those places was not as large as that of Xiaolongkou. So, whether it was Mark, or the place where the others were responsible, successfully resisted the attack of those barbarians.

However, compared to the record of Xiaolongkou's side, those places are much inferior. Not only that, but the losses in other places are also not small. Therefore, the overall situation is still very grim. Because according to intelligence, the barbarians in the invading area did not grab enough supplies, and more and more barbarians began to shift their attention to the cities in the western frontier of Great Qin.

Without enough supplies, they will not survive the next winter. Therefore, even knowing that the siege was not an easy task, the leaders of the barbarians had to make such a decision.

The first line of defense, mainly built by regular border troops, has begun to work, and some of the barbarian invaders have been annihilated. However, the number of border troops is limited after all, and the area they are responsible for does not cover all places. Therefore, the second line of defense that Ma Shuo and others are responsible for will still be under a lot of pressure.

Fortunately, the reinforcements from Xianyang finally arrived in Western Xinjiang. After the Western Army arrived in Western Xinjiang, it did not immediately divide its troops to support each county separately. Because Bai Qi, the commander of the Western Army and the general of the Zhu State, was ready to concentrate his forces to fight a war of annihilation, focusing on annihilating the living forces of the barbarians and fundamentally solving the problem.

Bai Qi's proposition is to change passive defense to active attack. Bai Qi has never been the kind of passive defensive character. Whether it is an enemy of other countries or a barbarian, in Bai Qi's opinion, it is the same, as long as he dares to harm the interests of Great Qin, he will be killed.

However, in order to launch a large-scale war of annihilation, it is not enough to support only the 400,000 men of the Western Army.

The barbarians who entered the western frontier added up to nearly two million, and they had been distributed to nearly one-third of the counties below Ximen County. Therefore, it is obviously impossible to eat all the barbarians at once. Bai Qi's plan was to divide these barbarians into several parts according to the current level of concentration and eat them in one bite.

According to the geographical distribution of the three passes, the barbarians entering Western Xinjiang can be roughly divided into three roads, the south road, the middle road and the north road.

The one who came in from Zhenmanguan should be regarded as the middle lane. The middle lane is exactly what Bai Qi wants to eat first. Therefore, the first thing Bai did after that was to send scouts to grasp the concentration of barbarians in the middle lane so that he could make accurate strategic decisions.

At the same time, he also had to accurately understand the situation of the local border army and the local military strength, so as to make full preparations for his annihilation plan.

Bai Qi's efficiency was very high, and it was only three days after the reinforcements arrived in Yumen County, and the information he wanted had already arrived in his hands, and it was all collected by the men and horses he sent in person.

"What a Li Lingwei, he is not small! Close the door and hit the dog, the door is closed, but the dog doesn't kill much! Those local militias, city guards, are simply waste, so many people, they only know how to defend to the death, and they don't have the courage at all! What a bunch of rubbish! ”

Obviously, Bai Qi was not satisfied with the performance of the border army under Li Lingwei, and after seeing the information in his hand, he couldn't help but scold directly.

"Huh! - That's kind of interesting! Suddenly, Bai Qi was attracted by a piece of information.

With 20,000 against 30,000, 1,000 battle losses, nearly 30,000 enemies were annihilated, according to local conditions, with Maozhu as a weapon, six or seven thousand cavalry.

Bai Qi couldn't help but take a closer look at this piece of information, compared to the sparse records in other places, the results in this information were very dazzling.

"Someone, send down the order, transfer this captain surnamed Ma and his men and horses to the command of Ben Shuai, how can such an interesting young man be let go." Bai Qi very decisively issued an order.

Soon, an urgent dispatch order was issued from Xilin City, the capital of Yumen County, where the Western Army was stationed.
