Weird Three Kingdoms

Chapter 2291
Everyone has their own habits, such as Lao Cao's routine, he likes to climb the wall, uh, it is to copy the back road and cut off the food.

In history, Cao Cao fought more than 50 battles, large and small, in his life, with more victories and fewer losses, and only 5 defeats.Cao Cao's fighting style is bold and adventurous. If he wins, he will win a glorious victory. If he loses, he will also lose miserably.Although Cao Cao did not directly participate in some of these battles, Cao Cao ordered Xia Houyuan or Zhang Liao to fight, so the credit goes to these generals, and Cao Cao also has a share.

Cao Cao was at a disadvantage for a long time in the confrontation with Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao in the early stage. There were even times when the soldiers were out of food and the army was facing collapse several times. Therefore, Cao Cao knew the importance of food and grass, and also knew that if an army fell into What a terrible thing it is to cause chaos, just like Yuan Shao was out of food at that time. Obviously, Yuan Jun had more numbers than Cao Jun, but he was still chased and killed by Cao Jun all the way, and he had no power to fight back.

Therefore, when planning the Battle of Youbei, it will be much easier to cut off the enemy's food and grass, the rear route will be copied, and the whole army will be chaotic than head-on confrontation and a deadly fight.

So Cao Cao made targeted arrangements, and on the other side, by coincidence, Zhao Yun also thought the same thing as Cao Cao, and was going to climb the wall of Ding Ling's house.

It's just that if you want to climb the wall of Ding Ling's house, you need to go through Rouran first, and Rouran feels that if you go with Zhao Yun, your wife and children will be missed by Jiankun people...

Brother Zhao said, it's easy to handle, and the people from Jiankun will come together.

So Zhang He brought a thousand troops to the Rouran royal court.

Rouran is relatively close to Zhao Yun, but it is still a long way from Rouran to Jiankun.

Rouran's royal court does not look small. There are 5000 people in charge of the tribe directly under its jurisdiction, plus some surrounding small tribes, it is more than 8000 people. Groups of war horses, cattle and sheep, etc. occupy a full area. They occupied a large area and set up six or seven camps.

After Chi He, the leader of Rouran introduced his Wang Ting, he took a sneak peek at Zhang Yun, but he didn't see anything from Zhang Yun's expression. Can't help jumping, but lowered his head.

Don't look at the majestic Rouran Royal Court at the moment, but in fact...

It's all pre-prepared.

It's like a lower-level unit welcomes the supervision of the superior. It needs to be cleaned more or less, put up slogans, and then order the employees to wear white shirts and ties, black skirts and black stockings. If the superiors have any special hobbies, they will also Focus on arranging, such as vacuum fishing nets or something...

The upper and lower levels here do not only refer to administrative units, but also to almost all places where there is a relationship between superiors and subordinates, from schools to government agencies, from careers to enterprises, from inside to outside, it is the same.

Jiankun Poshihe didn't say anything, anyway, everyone knows...

As for Zhang He, he didn't care much.

There was continuous heavy rain in Youzhou area, while the dry and cold wind howled here.

Rouran people are grabbing every opportunity to harvest pastures, and then stack them up to dry as winter reserves.

Zhang Xi looked away from the busy Rouran people, although his voice was not loud, but he was firm, "We must send troops now to solve the problem before the winter." 』

Zhang Yun's tone seemed to be talking about a trivial matter.

Chi He, the leader of Rouran, hesitated for a while, maybe he wanted to shirk at the beginning, or some other plan, but after seeing Zhang He's eyes, he finally sighed and said: "But I can only do it here at most." Draw 2000 people...』

Then Chihe, the leader of Rouran, turned his head to Poshihe and said, "You have also seen that my cattle, sheep and grass are not ready..."

Po Shihe was silent for a while.He knew what Chihe meant.The reason why Rouran is not ready is because Rouran's original pasture is not here, and they were also driven out by Jiankun people, so who can blame?Is it because the Jiankun people drove Rouran away by themselves, so the Rouran people had to prepare again, resulting in the fact that the manpower cannot be dispatched now?

But only 2000 people...

Zhang He smiled, "Although it's a little less, it should be enough."Now... it's up to you... If you can attract them all to one place, you can solve them together... In other words, the more you can attract, the easier it is...』

Po Shihe looked at Zhang Yun seriously, "General Zhang, are you... sure?" 』Generally speaking, the more enemies there are, the more difficult it will be, but in Zhang Xi's mouth, it seems to be reversed.

"Let go and do it!" Zhang He nodded, and guessing some of Po Shihe's worries, he added as a matter of course, "Four 500 years, if we fight head-on...the Han family has nothing to fear!" 』

What Zhang He said was heroic, but it was also true.

Chihe and Poshihe glanced at each other, somewhat uncomfortable, but they had to accept this fact.

The cavalry of the Han family were indeed very strong during this period of time.

Since Feiqian began to equip all members with double-sided stirrups and Takahashi saddles, the cavalry has been roughly divided into three parts. One is naturally heavy armored cavalry, which is responsible for close-range charges, using spears, long knives, and battle axes. , Iron whip, hammer and other heavy weapons will also be equipped with throwing weapons such as throwing axes and small halberds, and some of them also have large shields, which can be temporarily transformed into heavy armored infantry.

The other part is to take a long-range attack, that is, the archer's route. The main weapon is a bow and crossbow, and then add a sword, a spear, and usually a small round shield. Unless there are special circumstances, the people and horses will not be separated.

But there are also many cavalry generals who like the third type, which is "all-around cavalry".This kind of "all-round cavalry" probably reached its peak in the Yuan Dynasty. The cavalry has more comprehensive functions, and can shoot long distances, charge into battle and fight in close combat.Depending on the weight of the armor, the emphasis is different. Cavalry equipped with light armor generally take on the tasks of harassing, quickly supporting, and disrupting the opponent's formation, while relatively slow and heavily armored cavalry generally take on the task of rushing into the formation.Once the battle situation requires, both types of cavalry can join the battle group at the same time and transform at any time.

The combat mode and various tactics of the cavalry actually lead the East a lot of the time.

Until Bali Bridge...

Throughout the braided dynasty, almost no improvement was made to cavalry tactics, and there were even retreats.

Although the braided dynasty was the same as in the West, there was a burst of musket cavalry, that is, the Galdan cavalry, but under some intentional or unintentional suppression, the musket was just a flash and it was not popularized.On the one hand, the braids suppressed the internal affairs, prospered the literary inquisition, and controlled the people's thinking. On the other hand, they compiled the Mongolian tribes into alliance flags, and they were not allowed to join or invade each other, corrupting the Mongolian troops.

Then when we arrived at the Bali Bridge, the bannermen in the braided dynasty were rotten to the bone, and it was difficult to get on the horse.They can only temporarily recruit herdsmen from the Horqin and Chahar tribes, and their opponents, except for a small number of British and French cavalry regiments, are mostly colonial cavalry regiments...

In other words, my Qing cavalry at that time was so bad that even Ah San's Sikh cavalry could not beat them. 2000 against 400, five to one, lost, 3000 against 300, ten to one, also lost...

But now, it's the other way around, with one Han topping five Hus.

Coupled with the excellent equipment and combat training of General Hussars, Zhang Xi felt that he had brought 1000 people with him, and Rouran's 2000 people were his assistants, so what if he was an enemy ten times stronger?Naturally, all those opponents in Jiankun were to be wiped out in one go. What's wrong with that?Otherwise, who still has time to collect everywhere?
...(*Д*)...

At this time, Cao Cao dispatched Xia Houyuan and Cao Chun in the northern part of Youzhou to tie pockets and collect nets along the side, but in Jiankun Kingdom, it was still quiet.

Because Jiankun was affected by the cold current from the north, he had to move south to escape, but for the other tribes in Jiankun who were not affected for the time being, they didn't seem to pay much attention to it.Some people sent out some scouts to the north, and the scouts came back to say that the snow wasn't coming down south.

If the wind and snow didn't come, of course there is no need to worry about it. As for the tribe of Poshi River...

Could it just be that they were unlucky?

Some people feel sorry for Poshihe and the others, while some say it’s none of my business. Most Jiankun people are still busy with their own lives, and don’t care much about whether Poshihe will have any problems in the future. .

Even some people in the Poshihe tribe expressed cautious optimism, thinking that the snowstorm might just be a coincidence, and after this year is over, they can still go back.

There is still hope, but the winter supplies are a big problem right now.

There is food in hand, and there is no panic in the heart. This saying is true no matter when it is.However, the disadvantage of the nomads is here. The nomads are born with less savings than the farming peoples. Especially when encountering disasters, people want to eat, and animals also need to eat. Often, they collapse into a mess when they are in a hurry.

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 cool to bring the foundation and land along the way?

Disputes inevitably arose, and the closer to winter, the more intense the conflicts became.

This kind of conflict, after the inevitable bloodshed, leads to swords drawn between each other, and the war is about to break out.

The people of the Qiulin tribe asked the Poshihe tribe not only to hand over the murderer, but also to pay a huge amount of compensation. If Poshihe didn't agree, they would be at their own risk!
The person who delivered the ultimatum in the Qiulin tribe left, but in the Poshihe tribe, they still couldn't share the same hatred.There are people who are habitually throwing blame, no matter where they are. The first reaction of these people is to throw the blame away instead of solving the problem.

A slap can't make a sound...

When you encounter something, first think about where you did wrong...

These theories are not wrong in normal times, but if the other party intends to provoke and make trouble, it will be meaningless.

"This is a good deed done by the 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 take it upon yourself!Don't drag us down! 』

"you? ’ On the other side, Poshihe’s father, Poshihe Yuanchang sneered twice, and said, ‘When will you, Poshihe Thrush, be able to replace everyone else?Do you really think that if we hand over our people, the Qiulin tribe will just forget about it? 』

"Qillin... Qiulin will still keep his word..." Poshihe Thrushwen said with staring eyes, "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 that something has happened, you still want to drag us into the water?Um? ! 』

"You would rather trust your enemies than your own people? ’Poshihe Yuanchang said, ‘I’ve said it long ago, the Qiulin tribe has no good intentions, and they’ve been messing around with the Han people this time, in order to make us have nowhere to go!Finally annexed by Chulin! 』

"Ha ha!Said so much, isn't it just to wipe your tribe's ass? 』

"This is a fact!Not anyone's ass! 』

"This is sophistry! 』

"All right! The old man Poshihe in the middle shouted loudly, and stopped the two people from arguing, or quarreling, "What can the quarrel produce?"Now is what to do with this matter! 』

Although the old man was old, he still had a lot of prestige, and he took control of the scene with a short drink.He looked left and right, then pointed at the Poshi River Thrush pattern, "Say it!If we compensate Qiu Lin, will Qiu Lin keep his promise?Let it go? 』

On the side Po Shi Heyuan said anxiously: "Boss!This……"

"To shut up! The leader of Poshihe stared over, "It's not time for you to speak!" 』

Poshihe thrush pattern laughed hehehe, then shook his head and said to the others, "Look, he's in a hurry, he's in a hurry...hehe, hahaha..."

"Stop talking nonsense too!Talk about business! ’ The old man turned around and said, ‘How do you judge that the Qiulin Tribe will forget it after taking the compensation?Instead of ordering a batch first, and then asking for another batch...huh? 』

Poshihe Thruwen was stunned for a moment: "This... Qiulin tribe, shouldn't be dishonest, right?" 』

"Just should? ’ the old man asked.

"Isn't that so? ’ Poshihe Thrushwen said, ‘Is it always necessary to make some sense?No, we can go to Subu Juji and let them judge...』

The leader of Poshihe nodded slightly, "So you think... if something happens, let someone else decide what we should do, and if someone is unreasonable, then ask another person to judge... right? 』

Po Shi Heyuan hugged his hands and sneered.

Poshihe Thruwen was taken aback for a moment, then pointed at Poshihe Yuantao and said, "Didn't he do that too?"Let the Han people judge? ! 』

"Hahaha..." The leader of Poshihe laughed loudly, "This is different..."

Poshihe Thrushwen said eagerly, "Why is it different?"The Han people are still farther away from us... Xu Bujuci still has a good relationship with us, and will definitely speak for us...』

The leader of Poshihe smiled, "I don't know if you have heard of a word called "distanced friendship and close attack"... Forget it, let me explain a little more clearly. Xu Bujuci is not willing to speak for us because they have a good relationship with us. It's because Qiu Lin is messing with them too...』

"Uh..." Poshihe Thrushwen hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

"Poshi Heyuan tasted..." The old leader said slowly, "The equipment of the Han people is at least three times stronger than ours!"Have you seen the full body armor?Have you ever seen a armor that even covers a horse?There are also swords... The best swords here are not even comparable to the swords of ordinary soldiers over there! 』

"Wow..."

There was an uproar in the tent, and many people showed expressions of disbelief.

The leader of Poshihe took a look at Poshiheyuan.Po Shi Heyuan understood, beckoned, and asked the attendants at the side to take out a half-stick-shaped object wrapped in linen, and then untied the linen, and it was a standard sword under the command of the hussars.

Those present may not all be proficient in military affairs, but at least they have the ability to distinguish whether a sword is good or bad. Holding the blood groove on the knife body as if eager to drink blood, I couldn't help but praise...

"If Qiu Lin..." The old leader looked around, "It is not only our people who want us, but also our things... and the Han people... at most, they only want our people, they don't like our things ...How to choose, what else do I need to say? 』

"Wait a moment! ’ Poshihe Thrushwen still wanted to struggle for a while, ‘What if the Han people also want our cattle, sheep and war horses? 』

"Huh..." The old leader looked at Poshihe Thrushwen with mentally retarded eyes, "I suddenly felt...your tribe let you be the leader...well, let's not talk about this, what do other people think? 』

The rest of the people looked at each other and had no opinion.

Life on the prairie is very cruel, not as beautiful as what some literary youth imagined. If it is not a tribe gathered in one place, but a single herdsman family, sometimes they meet strangers in the wild, they will not know The stranger is an ordinary lost person, or a murderer on the run.Happy to invite people to the house, and then meet someone like Cao Cao who turns his face and denies him?
Even if the human factor is removed, nature will change its face when it says it will, the underground river will change its course if it says it will, and cattle and sheep herds may cause rinderpest and sheep disease, and there is no place to treat it...

Therefore, it is a natural instinct for these people in the desert to admire the strong and despise the weak.Seeing that the Han people are strong, they are more inclined to the Han people.

"Then... Qiulin..." Finally, someone asked, "How should I reply?" 』

"What reply do you want?"Let them wait..." The old leader smiled, "Take it easy when you go back... It's best to get closer to each other, don't be scattered... Don't blame me for not reminding..."

Seeing this, everyone bid farewell and left.

Although Poshi He Yuanchang also made a big tent, he did not leave immediately. Instead, he tied the saddle on his horse, tied it up and took it off, and then took it off and put it on again...

After a while, after everyone else basically left, the old leader slowly walked out of the big tent, stood aside, "Okay, don't pretend, just let it go... come with me for a while." Walk……"

As the sun sets, the sky and the earth are golden.

"It's been so many years... the big man...how is it? 』The old leader put his hands behind his back and looked to the south. The setting sun shone on his gray beard, which seemed to gild him with a layer of gold.

"It is said that...he is also fighting..." Poshi Hemoto said slowly, "However, it should be stronger than before...at least this sword..."

"Hmm..." The old leader nodded.

The two were silent again.

After a while, the old leader said: "How many years... Finally someone remembered us... If it's later, everyone will forget what my last name was..."
