Weird Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1703 Swords and plans
Zhang Liao galloped over the grasslands of Longyou with [-] cavalry.

The army assembled by Zhang Liao had actually been waiting at Youfufeng for a while. After receiving the order, they set off almost immediately to the south of Longyou, and first joined Ma Heng who was escorting food and grass from Hanzhong.After the confluence, the troops led by President Zhang Liao will reach about [-], more than two-thirds of which are cavalry.

Who is the scariest person in group fights?

Just catch a guy and beat him to death...

People like this are often intimidating, and they don't dare to provoke them easily. If it is the other way around, they will beat up whoever they see. If this person punches and that person kicks, in the end they feel that it doesn't hurt, so naturally You won't feel so scared.

Even if there were no Han people, from Longyou to the Western Regions, there was basically a bunch of chaos.Today, a certain person had an itchy fist, so he beat up the child next door, and then either the child was beaten to attract adults, or the child grew up, and then came back to take revenge. This kind of drama is really rare in this area. It's all too common.

The actions of the Fan people this time were within the expectations of Li Ru and Jia Xu, but also somewhat unexpected.

It was expected that the two guys had already predicted that there might be some people who were unwilling to see the Han people's rule in the Western Regions stabilized, so they would inevitably make some moves, but what was unexpected was not I knew that these people would come from that direction, and I didn't expect that after the integration of the Qiang people in the snowy area, there would be a Falcon Tixi Boye who looked like the new Qiang king.

However, this unexpected, in fact, does not have much relationship.

The Qiang people and the Han have been in love and killed each other for so many years, which caused the Han's national power to suffer a lot, but at the same time, the Qiang people also lost a lot of power in such a long-term war.If we say that during the heyday of the Qiang people, Zhang Liao’s more than 10,000 people are really not too many. After all, the Qiang people in their heyday once had more than 300,000 people.

Therefore, many Qiang tribes in Longyou and the Western Regions are now unwilling to fight, and this is the reason.However, maybe after the generation of Qiang people who have experienced the trauma of war dies, the next generation of Qiang people who have not experienced pain grow up, and maybe they will forget the previous scars.

Compared with the Qiang and Hu tribes in Longyou Hexi who directly clashed with the big Han, the Fans in the snowy area basically did not have much loss, so they were naturally full of confidence.

For Li Ru and Jia Xu, the trouble is that they are not familiar with the snow area.Unfamiliarity with the terrain means blind eyes. Although Yang Fu, Xu Ding and others entered the snow area, they passed on some topographic survey charts under the cover of negotiation. Just a route does not mean that there is only one way in and out of the snow area.

Therefore, if you want to fight, you still need to lure these foreigners out to fight, so as to completely solve some problems.Due to geographical reasons, the Fan people have not had any contact with the big man for a long time, and they also ignore the big man. They also robbed the big man with the Qiang people in Longyou before, and they have long been accustomed to thinking that the big man is a piece of delicious Fat meat, although the current hussar generals criss-cross the north and south, causing earth-shaking changes in the entire northwestern region of the Han Dynasty, but these Tibetans do not know this, nor have they experienced such changes.

According to the characters of these barbarians, both Li Ru and Jia Xu believed that they should take advantage of the current strength of the army to catch one and beat them to death. Naturally, these barbarians will be convinced, and then at least a dozen or 20 years will explode in the future. period of stability.

This is the experience gained by the great man in the Western Regions with the blood of countless soldiers.

Li Ru and Jia Xu believed that fighting the Hu people for a long time, even if they won in the end, most of them could only be regarded as miserable victories for the big Han, or even lose both sides, just like when Emperor Wu of the Han beat the Huns to death, The Han Dynasty was also bruised and unable to move. Although the Han Dynasty has a large population and sufficient military resources, it does not mean that it can maintain a long-term combat state. Therefore, if you can show a domineering posture and maintain a certain deterrent force, it is naturally the best. Strategy.

In war, after all, what is fought is money, what is fought is food, and what is fought is population.

"This is a good place..." Zhang Liao chose an area, close to the river, for the soldiers to camp and repair.

The cavalry usually gallops on horseback, looking majestic, but in fact, after dismounting from the horse, they become servants of the horse. They have to serve the master to wash, eat and drink, and then wait for the master to feel comfortable before it is his turn. own rest time.

Moreover, many things, such as brushing and feeding horses, need to be personally done, so as to enhance the relationship with the master, so after Zhang Liao gave the order to repair, the pawns brought by Ma Heng were preparing to build The camp, while Zhang Liao's cavalry were busy serving their master, the originally calm river suddenly became noisy.

Ma Heng took out the list of supplies and supplies from the leather pouch on his waist, and then calculated again.He was originally the unlucky child of cultivating immortals, Liu Dan's don't drive, but later because of Liu Dan's own problems, Ma Heng was intentionally or unintentionally squeezed out by Zhang Ze in Hanzhong to a marginal position in Hanzhong's political arena. Back then, Li Ru was still in Hanzhong. He didn't say anything at the time. In fact, on the one hand, it was to hone Ma Heng's character, and on the other hand, he also took advantage of the position of guard at Yangping Pass to let Ma Heng have more experience in the military. This time, Li Ru suggested that Fei Qian Qian, transferred Ma Heng out, as Zhang Liao's deputy, to assist in the logistics of this expedition.

Zhang Liao took a glance, saw Ma Heng frowning, and asked, "Why, the amount of food and grass is wrong?"

Ma Heng shook his head and said: "Don't worry, General Wen Yuan, there is no going in or out... Someone is just calculating how long these grains can last... If it takes a long time..."

Zhang Liao nodded, and then said: "It shouldn't grow..." Of course, this is also Zhang Liao's wish, but on the battlefield, many things are not decided by one side, and it depends on whether the other party cooperates or not, and the posture is correct. Incorrect.

Ma Heng was silent, then put the list back into his leather bag, looked at the busy soldiers around, and suddenly said: "Speaking of food and grass... General Wen Yuan, I revisited the old stories of Xiqiang... I don't know why the big man consumes so much food and grass Big, but the barbarians seem to come and go freely, as if they have no food and grass... It's really puzzling..."

Zhang Liao smiled and said, "I know something about this matter. When I followed General Hussars to Guanzhong, I also talked about it during the march... General Hussars said that except for the big man who was greedy in the Northwest at that time, In addition to the prevalence of corruption and misappropriation of supplies, it is also related to the completely different social systems of Han and Hu people..."

"What system?" Ma Heng didn't understand.

"Social system... society, society, community, people's collection, system, rules of scholars, farmers, businessmen..." Zhang Liao picked up a branch, wrote four words on the ground, and explained it, saying, " General Hussars said that because of the social system in which most of the Hu people were slaves, when the Hu people went to war, one master brought many slave soldiers. Fight to the death, and at the same time, the barbarians don't need to give slaves any more money and food, so they are naturally able to fight, and the overall consumption is much less than us..."

Ma Heng frowned and said: "Isn't this..." Ma Heng said half of the sentence, and then swallowed the rest of the sentence.

Zhang Liao smiled, "Why must Uncle Chang be so cautious? At that time, Mou was also quite worried, but General Hussars later released his worries..."

"What did General Hussars say?" Ma Heng couldn't help asking.

Zhang Liao looked into the distance. This is the place where the Han and the Qiang have fought for decades. For a long time, in the eyes of the Hu people, the territory of the Han has a large population and wealth. No matter how they fight, the Hu people will take advantage. The survival of the Hu people's army can be basically maintained by fighting to support the war. On the contrary, if the Han army attacks the Hu people, there will be no such convenience. The desert is vast, uninhabited, and the winter is long. It is also difficult for the Han army to occupy the land and survive for a long time.

In the hundreds of years of the Han people, in this boundless desert, the Han Dynasty, the Huns, the Xianbei people, and some Qiang people have spent this kind of mutual attack. The Han Dynasty seems to have won, but Also seems to fail.

The desert is still dominated by the Hu people. No matter how powerful the Han Kingdom was once, it failed to conquer the Hu people in the desert, let alone turn the desert into the territory of the Han Kingdom.

"General Hussars said..." Zhang Liao looked dimly, as if he was recalling the situation at that time, "It is possible to conquer for a while only by force, but it is difficult to conquer for a lifetime... To defeat these barbarians, strong troops and horses are necessary, but there is also You can't just rely on soldiers and horses... just like these weeds, the fire will only burn the surface of the ground, but if their roots are damaged..."

"Destroy his cattle and sheep?" Ma Heng couldn't help but said, "This, someone mentioned it a few years ago..."

Zhang Liao laughed, and said, "General Hussars has a world-wide mind and a lofty strategy, how can ordinary people compare with it? Bad cattle and sheep are just the way of a villain..." Zhang Liao wiped the word "social system" on the ground with his foot Flattened, "General Hussars meant this...does Shuchang understand?"

"Hiss..." Ma Heng swallowed a mouthful of saliva, hesitated for a while, and said, "This... how to do this?"

Zhang Liao shook his head and said, "How can someone know? However, I believe... General Hussars will definitely be able to do it..."

Ma Heng stroked his beard, nodded, and immediately said with emotion: "A certain person in Jingxiang often gathers and talks, prides himself on his strategies, and shows off his talents. Now it seems...but a frog at the bottom of the well... Hussars are really... ... Ordinary people, who have already exhausted their wits in planning a war, those with amazing talents and learning can seek a country, while Hussar Generals can seek the power of the world..." Ma Heng looked down at the blurred writing on the ground, "So' The social system'...really...'

..._(:з」∠)_...

The gathering place for the soldiers and horses of the Fans.

In the heart of Falcon Tishi Boye, there is a wish and a plan.These Qiang people in Dahan and Xiliang fought for 40 years. From the perspective of Falcon Tixi Boye, this is a very terrible thing.

In the snow area, there are almost all kinds of people, including the Qiang people, Xianbei people, and even the early Huns. Their ancestors lived in the desert. For various reasons, they actively Or passively left their nomadic place and came to the snowy area, and a large part of these reasons are related to the Han people, so these people have a lot of grievances and hatred with the Han people...

Falcon mentioned that Boye understands that if the entire snow area wants to be strong, it needs to be valued by the people around it. If you dare not start a war easily, you must show the sword and gun in your hand to let the people around you know how powerful it is. Otherwise, it’s like fat meat, one cuts one today, and another one tomorrow, and the Tibetans will always be like loose sand.

On the other hand, it is also necessary to take such an opportunity to bring together different people.

Falcon Tixi Boye believes that among the Fan people, those Qiang people who have been at war with the Han for many years will not be mentioned, and those descendants of the Huns and Xianbei people, many of them have buried their hatred deeply. As long as there is a chance for the hatred to explode, these people will not let Xiang go.

So, as long as these people are given a chance, as long as they show the weakness of the Han people, then these people will go crazy...

And for the Fan people, they also needed excellent war horses from Longyou and Hexi to improve their breeds.

Whoever has a huge and powerful iron cavalry can dominate the desert. This is the unchanging truth in the desert for thousands of years.

Falcon mentioned that Boye also had horses under his command, but this horse...

If the big man was tyrannical, Falcon mentioned that Xi Boye would never have the guts to start a war, but since the big man himself was in chaos, he naturally couldn't miss such an opportunity.The Han people themselves are corrupt and the court is in chaos, so how can they resist their own troops?
The Han general in the northwest is said to be very powerful, but no matter how powerful this Han general is, how powerful can he be under such a chaotic situation of the big man?These Qiang people in Longyou, Xiliang were defeated, but because after fighting against the big Han for 40 years, they were too weak to fight anymore, and they were taken advantage of by this Han general.

The Han people are also interesting. I really don’t know what is in the heads of the Han people. They are willing to choose a younger emperor when they choose their own...

A child becomes the emperor, haha!

A weak leader without much power will only make the situation more chaotic, just like the snow region has been unable to make its own voice for so many years, the snow region needs a king.

Falcon mentioned Xi Boye that this is his duty.

Most of those guys in Guishuang thought they could use us to deal with the Han people, but in fact... they didn't know, I was actually using them...

"Come here! Tell all the ministries! Speed ​​up! After three days, the assembly must be completed! Let's go!"
