Chapter 2292 It’s inevitable to forget after a long time(1/2)
. ,
Everyone has their own habits. For example, Lao Cao’s routine is that he likes to climb walls, uh, take back roads and cut off food routes.
In history, Cao Cao fought more than 50 battles, large and small, in his life. He won more than he lost and only lost 5 battles. Cao Cao's fighting style was bold and adventurous. If he won, he would win with glory. If he lost, he would also lose.
It was very tragic. Although Cao Cao did not directly participate in several of the battles, it was Cao Cao who ordered Xia Houyuan or Zhang Liao to fight. Therefore, the credit goes to these generals, and Cao Cao also shares the credit.
In the early confrontations between Cao Cao and Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao, he was at a disadvantage for a long time. There were even situations where he ran out of troops and food on several occasions, and the army faced collapse several times. Therefore, Cao Cao knew the importance of food and grass, and he also knew that if an army fell into
What a terrible thing it was to be in chaos. It was like Yuan Shao had run out of food. Although Yuan's army was obviously more numerous than Cao's army, he was still being chased by Cao's army and had no power to fight back.
Therefore, when planning the Youbei Campaign, it would naturally be much easier to cut off the enemy's food and fodder, block their retreat, and cause the entire army to be in chaos than to confront them head-on and fight to the death.
Therefore, Cao Cao made targeted arrangements. On the other side, by coincidence, Zhao Yun was thinking about the same thing as Cao Cao and was preparing to climb the wall of Ding Ling's house.
But if you want to climb the wall of Ding Ling's house, you need to go through Rouran first, and Rouran feels that if she goes with Zhao Yun, the wife and children at home will be missed by the Jiankun people...
Brother Zhao said that it would be easy to handle, and the Jiankun people would come together.
Therefore, Zhang He led a thousand men and horses to the royal court of Rouran.
Rouran is relatively close to Zhao Yun, but there is still a long way to go from Rouran to Jiankun.
Rouran's royal court looks quite big. There are four to five thousand string controllers under the direct jurisdiction of the tribe. Plus some surrounding small tribes, the number exceeds eight thousand people. Groups of war horses, cattle, sheep, etc. are enough.
It occupied a large area and set up six or seven camps.
After Chihe, the leader of Rouran, introduced his royal court, he secretly glanced at Zhang He. As a result, he didn't see anything on Zhang He's expression. On the contrary, Jiankunpo Shihe looked like he was smiling but not smiling.
He couldn't help but jump and lowered his head.
Although the Rouran Royal Court is majestic at the moment, in reality...
It's all prepared in advance.
It's like when a subordinate unit welcomes the supervision of a superior, it has to do some cleaning, put up slogans, and then instruct employees to wear white shirts and ties, black skirts, black stockings, etc. If the superiors have any special hobbies, they will also
Make some key arrangements, such as vacuum fishing nets or something...
The superiors and subordinates here do not only refer to administrative units, but also to almost all places where there is a superior-subordinate relationship, from schools to agencies, from businesses to enterprises, from inside to outside, it is the same.
Jiankunpo Shihe didn’t say anything, anyway, everyone knew...
As for Zhang He, he didn't care even more.
There are continuous heavy rains in Youzhou, but here the dry cold wind is howling.
Rouran people are seizing every opportunity to harvest forage and then stack it to dry as reserves for the winter.
Zhang He withdrew his gaze from the busy Rouran people. Although his voice was not loud, he was very firm and said, "We must send troops now to solve the problem before winter."
Zhang He's tone was as if he was recounting a trivial matter.
Rouran headman Chi He hesitated for a moment, maybe he wanted to shirk it at first, or had some other plan, but after seeing Zhang He's eyes, he finally sighed and said: "But the most I can do here is
Draw out two thousand people..."
Then Chihe, the Rouran head man, turned to Po Shihe and said, "You have also seen that I have not prepared any cattle, sheep or pasture for me..."
Po Shihe was silent for a moment. He knew what Chi He meant. The reason Rouran was not prepared was because Rouran's original pasture was not here, and they were also driven out by the Jiankun people, so who can be blamed? Blame the Jiankun people.
He drove Rouran away, so the Rouran people had to prepare again, so manpower cannot be mobilized now?
But there are only two thousand people...
Zhang He smiled, "Although it's a little less, it should be enough. Now...it's your turn...If we can lure them all to one place, we can solve them together...In other words, the more we can lure,
The simpler it is..."
Po Shihe looked at Zhang He seriously, "General Zhang, are you...sure?" Generally speaking, the more enemies there are, the greater the difficulty will be, but in Zhang He's words, it was reversed.
"Let's go and do it!" Zhang He nodded, and then he also guessed some of Po Shihe's worries, so he added of course, "For four to five hundred years, if we fight head-on... the Han family has nothing to fear!"
Zhang He said it boldly, but it was also true.
Chi He and Po Shihe looked at each other, somewhat uncomfortable, but they had to accept this fact.
The Han family's cavalry was indeed very strong at this time.
Since Feiqian began to equip all members with bilateral stirrups and high-bridge saddles, the cavalry has been roughly divided into three parts. One is naturally the heavily armored cavalry, which is responsible for close-range charges, using spears, long knives, and battle axes.
, heavy weapons such as iron whips and hammers, and will also be equipped with some throwing weapons such as throwing axes and halberds, and some also have large shields that can be temporarily transformed into heavy armored infantry.
The other part is a long-range attack, that is, the cavalry route. The main weapon is a crossbow, and then a sword, a spear, and usually a small buckler. Unless there are special circumstances, the horse and the man will not be separated.
But there are also many cavalry generals who like the third type, which is the "all-around cavalry". This "all-around cavalry" probably reached its peak during the Yuan Dynasty. The cavalry function was more comprehensive and could shoot from a distance, charge into the formation, and fight at close range.
The emphasis is different depending on the weight of the armor. Cavalry equipped with light armor are generally responsible for harassment, rapid support, and disrupting the opponent's formation. The relatively slow heavy armored cavalry is generally responsible for the task of rushing into the formation. Once the battle situation requires, the two types
Cavalry can join the battle group at the same time and transform at any time.
In terms of the cavalry's combat patterns and various tactics, the East actually takes the lead most of the time.
Until Bali Bridge...
Throughout the Braid Dynasty, there was almost no improvement in cavalry tactics, and there were even changes.
Although the Braided Chariot, like the West, had a rise of musketeers, also known as the Galdan Cavalry, due to some intentional or unintentional suppression, the muskets only appeared and were not promoted.
Internal suppression was carried out, a literary prison was established, and the people's thinking was controlled. At the same time, the Mongolian tribes were organized into alliance banners, and they were not allowed to connect or invade each other, which would corrode the Mongolian troops.
Then when they arrived at Bali Bridge, the bannermen of the Braided Dynasty were rotten to the core and it was difficult to mount their horses. They could only temporarily recruit herdsmen from the Horqin and Chahar tribes, and their opponents, except for a small number of British and French cavalry regiments,
, mostly colonial cavalry regiments...
In other words, our Qing cavalry at that time was so bad that they could not even defeat Asan's Sikh cavalry. If we beat 2000 against 400, we would lose five to one, and if we beat 3000 against 300, we would lose ten to one...
But now, it's the other way around, with one man standing up to five barbarians.
Coupled with the sophisticated equipment and combat training of the hussar generals, Zhang He felt that he had brought a thousand people, and Rouran's two thousand people to assist him. Then even if it was ten times the enemy, what would it matter? Naturally, Jian Kun was going to be killed.
What's the problem if we wipe out all the opponents in one go? Otherwise, who would have time to collect them bit by bit?
……(*?Д?*)……
At this time, Cao Cao sent Xia Houyuan and Cao Chun to the north of Youzhou to tie up pockets and collect nets along the edge. However, in the Jiankun Kingdom, everything was still quiet.
Jiankun was affected by the cold current from the north and had to move south to avoid it. However, other tribes in Jiankun country that were not affected for the time being did not seem to pay much attention. Some people sent some sentinels to the north.
, and then the sentinel came back and said that the wind and snow did not continue to invade the south.
The wind and snow have not come, so of course there is no need to worry. As for the tribe of Poshihe...
Is it just bad luck for them?
Some people feel that Po Shihe and the others are pitiful, and some people say that it is none of their business. However, most Jiankun people are still busy with their own lives and do not have much thought to care about whether Po Shihe will have any problems in the future.
.
Even some people in the Poshihe tribe expressed cautious optimism, thinking that the snowstorm might be just an accident, and they could still go back after this year.
There is still hope, but the current winter supplies are a big problem.
This statement is true no matter when you have food in your hands and don't panic in your heart. However, this is the disadvantage of the nomads. The nomads inherently have less savings than the farming people, especially when encountering disasters.
People want to eat, and animals also want to eat. Often, in a hurry, they collapse into a mess.
Under such circumstances, there are naturally people in Jiankun who are ready to eat human blood steamed buns...
Seeing that his building collapsed, wouldn't it be great to bring the foundation and the land together?
Disputes inevitably arise, and the closer to winter, the more intense the conflicts become.
After the inevitable bloodshed, this kind of conflict leads to tensions between each other, and a war is about to break out.
The people of the Qiulin tribe demanded that the Poshihe tribe not only hand over the murderer, but also pay huge compensation. If Poshihe did not agree, they would be responsible for the consequences!
The person who delivered the ultimatum to the Qiulin tribe is gone, but the Poshihe tribe still cannot share the same hatred and hatred. There are people who are accustomed to blame the blame, no matter where they are. The first reaction of these people when encountering something is to
Throwing the blame instead of solving the problem.
Can't a slap make a sound...
When encountering something, first think about what you did wrong...
These theories are not wrong under normal circumstances, but they are meaningless when the other party intentionally provokes trouble.
"This is a good thing done by people in your tribe!" A middle-aged man from the Poshihe tribe said angrily, emphasizing again, "This is a disaster caused by your tribe! You should bear it yourself! Don't drag us down!"
"You?" On the other side, the father of the messenger Po Shihe, Po Shihe Yuanchang, sneered twice and said, "When will you, Po Shihe Thrush, be able to replace everyone else? Do you really think that
, will the Qiulin tribe just forget about it if we hand over our people?"
"Qiu Lin... Qiu Lin can still keep his word..." Po Shihe Thrush said with eyes wide open, "Anyway, it was all good at first, but it turned out to be something caused by your tribe! Do you want to admit it? So now it's happened
Things are going to drag us down? Huh?!』
"You would rather trust the enemy than trust your own people?" Poshihe Yuanchang said, "I have already said that the Qiulin tribe has no good intentions. They have been disrupting the talks with the Han people this time.
Let us have no way to go! Finally, we will be annexed by Qiulin!』
"Haha! You said all that just to wipe the butt of your tribe?"
"This is a fact! It's not anyone's butt!"
