Chapter 172: Lian Zhan Lian Victory

At about one hundred steps, the Qiang and Hu cavalry drew their bows and shot arrows, then put them on their backs and took out their maces or long swords. The arrows were thrown, and the rain of arrows fell from the air and shot on the light-armored infantry only caused minor losses. Several of the infantry behind were shot and fell to the ground, and were quickly carried to the back by the soldiers next to them.

Finally, the two armies collided together, and the horses rushed in front were stabbed on the gun, making a sad cry, and then the horses behind were hit again, and fell down with the horses and the gun bars. The light-armored infantry, who were knocked to the ground by the falling gun bars, climbed up with difficulty, pulled out their sabers and stabbed them hard at the cavalry in front.

The Qiang and Hu cavalry roared, and slashed down hard at the snitches in front of them with weapons. The knife slashed into the flesh, the sharp strange sound of the weapon touching the iron armor, screams, and moans intertwined, causing some soldiers of the two armies who entered the battlefield for the first time to feel fear and confusion.

However, the Jin army's reaction was not slow. When the Qiang and Hu cavalry came out to accelerate toward the rifle infantry formation, the cavalry of the Central Imperial Army had already tried to snipe according to Zhou Chu's order. It was impossible for the army to deploy everything to go well. The cavalry of the Imperial Army was one step slower, which made the infantry army pay some price.

But soon, the imperial guards flying together on both wings were supported by a significantly higher level of military support, allowing these Qiang and Hu, who were usually grazing, to know that the gap between the central imperial guards and the mobs, and the last hope of victory for the grassland coalition had slipped away.

After the war reaches a certain level, one side will inevitably collapse, and there will be those who fight to the death of the entire army, but most people will choose a better way to survive, especially the commander and soldiers who have the conditions to escape.

From being brave and invincible to instant collapse, the short time may be unbelievable. The battlefield filled with bloody smell is staged at this time. Throughout history, any general likes to beat the dogs in the water. Facing the front is a life-long battle, and it is so interesting to chase and chop a dog with a bereaved family.

The pursuit lasted until the evening. The first tough battle of the Central Imperial Army entering Hetao began with a great victory. The grassland coalition army suffered more than 10,000 casualties. In the pursuit, it was almost equivalent to annihilation of the entire army, with only two or three thousand cavalry fleeing. Sima Xu, King of Fanyang, made great contributions to the balance between men and women on the Hetao Plateau.

As for the battlefield, Sima Xu had no control over the Qiang and Hu soldiers on the battlefield, and he was even unwilling to finish the fight when he heard the wailing screams. They would bleed and die without worrying about it. It was destiny to really survive. So congratulations to you, this experience will benefit you for the rest of your life.

The opponent Sima Ji was most reluctant to encounter was the defenders who were not backward in the technology of a unified country. The second was the unified grassland tribe, the third was the backward in the technology of a unified country, the fourth was a scattered mob, and the fifth was the bandits and bandits.

He had never seen the first type of Persia, Rome, and the second type of enemy did not exist in the strict sense. The Xianbei had long been divided. Goguryeo can be said to be the third type on some levels, while Hetao's Qiang and Hu can be said to be the fourth type, but on some levels, it can be like the second type of enemy transformation.

Obviously, the transformation of Hetao has not been completed, and the Jin Dynasty has already ushered in the conquest, which will inevitably cost blood. This place is not really deserted, and even the Central Plains dynasty has never been there. The Han Dynasty army has been there, and the Jin Dynasty army has not been particularly uncomfortable with it.

After only nearly a month of large and small battles, the Luoyang Imperial Army and the Guanzhong Army had actually formed a complete front, and the King of Hejian also led 10,000 troops to join the battlefield, which was considered to be a supplement to the Luoyang Imperial Army. The number of Jin troops on the Hetao battlefield has increased to 60,000, and half of the Hetao Plateau has returned to the hands of the Jin Dynasty.

"Since the Northern Expedition, General Du Jian's Guanzhong army on the west road and King Fanyang of the east road, and King Hejian of the imperial guards have been connected to the front line and occupied half of Hetao. Since April 17th, the first battle has killed a thousand enemies, the second battle has recovered the county town under Shuofang County, and the third battle has been invincible. King Fanyang of the Qiang-Hu coalition forces have defeated the Qiang-Hu coalition forces and killed 20,000 enemies."

"Now, after twenty-two battles between big and big battles, the regaining of seventeen remnants of the city, thirty-two tribes of all sizes surrendered, and a total of 170,000 people were to surrender. Now it seems that the recovery of Hetao is just around the corner."

"You can't say that. There is no danger in the southern part of the Hetao area. Either you can take down the entire Hetao. What is valuable are the cities in Wuyuan County. If you control Yinshan, you will be worry-free. The difficulty of the war is still on both sides of the Yellow River. Maybe there is the real battlefield! The tribes that have not yet surrendered should be there."

"But, Zhongshujian, the news of continuous victory is better than losing, right?"

"It's right, I'm a good person, it's obviously a great thing, but I'm always worried, which is ridiculous!"

Simply put, judging from the memorials sent back from the front line, the Great Jin army deserves the word "Liang Zhan and win" in four words. It is not worse than the Southern Expedition during the Southern Expedition. Maybe it seems to be stronger from the description in the memorial. Who made the King of Yan pretend to be dead for a long time after chewing down on Linyi?

Several ministers of the regent discussed the war in Hetao with one word. Although they were not from the army, they could still give guidance in this era when civil and military affairs were not separated. Being a general and becoming a prime minister was the best praise for a minister. Zhang Hua once governed Youzhou and suppressed the Xianbei.

"It started with the Song Dynasty by using culture to build martial arts, right?" Sima Ji sat upright. Although he came to Luoyang to relax, he deceived Goguryeo to say that the king was not there, and the Pingzhou army was just bluffing. But it does not mean that he did not care about the Battle of Hetao at all. How could a vested interest not care about his own system?

Seeing Sima Ji frowned slightly, Wang Rong, who had already had a rapid increase in relationship with the King of Yan, quickly noticed it and asked, "I don't know what Your Highness, Yan, think about the Battle of Hetao? Do you have any opinions? Let us old ministers and queen listen to Gao Lun."

"I dare not take this high opinion. Ji is just a child who is not as good as the youngest. The victory of the Nanzheng Conquest is mainly related to the efforts of the Central Imperial Army and the full support of Jiaoguang and the two provinces of Jiaoguang and Guangxi. After the Nanzheng Conquest, Jiaoguang and Guangxi will have to wait for a while for two years." Sima Ji waved his hand and humbled for a moment, and then said, "This time the queen is in Luoyang. Several auxiliary ministers are planning and planning. Princes and generals are the commanders. As long as they fight steadily, Ji can't think of how he will lose."

The King of Yan told them directly not to think that they would not flatter. I would not even know myself when they flattered. If the Battle of Hetao went smoothly, Sima Ji would not be too conspicuous among the princes. This shows that all the clan members of our great Jin Dynasty could fight, and any garrison in his troops could win.

In this way, when he fights Goguryeo again, if he wins again, the other royal families will only think that it is not that King Yan is particularly powerful, but that there is indeed a pile of garbage next to me, and if another prince is in charge of Youzhou, he can still win.

The opposite example is that it may breed the idea of ​​being proud and underestimating the enemy. For an inappropriate example, Sima Ji doesn't care whether the maid of the royal palace is so elegant. Just be pretty. Anyway, he will marry a beautiful and elegant girl from a noble family. Whether he is a virgin or not is not a big deal. Anyway, he can't get in touch with him if he is not a virgin.

Obviously, no one would be reluctant to listen to such a very sophisticated answer. Zhang Hua and Wang Rong both stroked their beards and nodded in a teaching manner. Since returning from the Southern Expedition, they have become more and more pleasing to the King of Yan.

Of course, Sima Ji was not without contribution. With the history of the Eight Kings Rebellion as the background, he certainly knew which royal families were talented in fighting, among which King Hejian and King Fan Yang were both able to fight. Although King Fan Yang was not among the Eight Kings, it was because he had never held a ruling court and had always been a powerful royal family that was won over.

On the other hand, Sima Yue, the military talent of King Donghai, was very average. He used the emperor to order the princes to fight in person, but was defeated by Sima Ying, who was less than half of his army. If it weren't for the 100,000 troops of King Qi, Sima Yi, who was killed by Changsha, the example of Sima Yue being defeated by the King of Changsha, was the last, Sima Yue could be said to be embarrassed to be thrown into his grandma's house.

"I thought Qingxuan came here specifically to wait for news, but it seemed that this was not the case." Jia Nanfeng raised his head slightly and said in a strong tone, "Are you here to hide from leisure? Or have you any intention?"

"Sister-in-law, Ji is indeed coming to Luoyang for a leisurely moment, but this does not conflict with the important matters. If he stayed in Youzhou at this time, Goguryeo might be on guard. Since this is the case, it would be harmless to come to Luoyang for a leisurely moment." Sima Ji sighed, "Ji is not better than other royal families in war, but if he can make the opponent underestimate the enemy, he is willing to do something that the enemy likes to numb the other party."

"Although I don't know the depth of Goguryeo, Ji still wants to minimize the losses of the Pingzhou army as much as possible. So it's best to be able to attack and catch someone off guard. Ji is just a vassal king, and there is no need to make any great contribution. If the fiefdom has been reduced every year and taxes are reduced, who would be willing to fight?" Sima Ji Chang sighed, "It would be great if Goguryeo had civil turmoil. I could be a leisurely prince, and I would be free and easy every day, wouldn't it be beautiful?"

Sima Ji's face was quite sincere, because this was the day he thought. Even Jia Nanfeng felt that this tone was too sincere, and it was completely out of his heart. However, it seemed that something was wrong to say it so publicly.
