Weird Three Kingdoms

Chapter 802 Between Ideal and Reality

In fact, Fei Qian's urgent advance is not a very good choice for the battle situation.

Although the Xianbei army was successfully blocked in a relatively narrow passage like Zhenlin and Yulin, the best way is to slowly coerce and then delay, dragging down the entire Xianbei army.

Although the customs of the Hu people doomed their marching needs to be less than that of the Han army, the dry food eaten by the war horses and the salt eaten by the people are indispensable anyway, so from a tactical point of view, Xianbei can’t run away anyway, and it will take an extra day , Xianbei is weaker...

However, Fei Qian couldn't delay. Apart from the gradual consumption of military food and supplies on his own side, another reason was that the spring plowing was coming soon, and the transfer of food, grass, materials and military equipment was unnecessary. A lot of labor?

And the laborers are busy transporting food and grass, how can they plow in time?
"On the second day of February, the dragon raised its head..."

Fei Qian looked up at the sky, and said silently.

According to the customs of China, from this day on, it officially entered the spring plowing time.Every year at this time, the emperor needs to go to the field in person, at least once to support the plow, to show that he attaches great importance to farming.It is said that this is a rule handed down from King Wen of Zhou and King Wu of Zhou.

But in this year's Chang'an, I don't know what to do. Maybe such a custom should be practiced, right?
Feiqian has traveled all the way, and has a deeper understanding of Bingzhou. He was born in an era of prosperity and peace. No matter how many military books he has read and how well-prepared his mind is, but now such a cold weapon war In this era, there will still be a strong impact on one's original concepts.

War, the destruction of people's livelihood is extremely strong and terrible.

Along the way, apart from the deserted villages, there was no sign of human habitation.

The imperial court did not care about Bingzhou, and the barbarians plundered Bingzhou. The most unlucky ones were not the soldiers of Bingzhou, but the people of Bingzhou. Fei Qian can also imagine it, and it is probably not too different from here.

The rice paddies between the cultivated fields still have the same appearance, but the owners of those cultivated fields have disappeared.

Feiqian and Yufulo, the basic pure cavalry unit, are not bad, and they brought some cattle and sheep behind them, and Bingzhou horses are more hardworking, even if they gnaw some green grass on the roadside, they can deal with it , but it is necessary to add dry goods at night to restore their strength, and Xiliang horses must eat some beans to maintain their body fat. Most of the beans and hay on the thirty or so trucks behind are for these war horses prepare.

If it is an infantry army, it will be even more troublesome, not to mention the problem of twenty or thirty supply vehicles.

When the army is deployed, in addition to the original auxiliary army having to transfer food and grass back and forth, sometimes the battle line is tight, and even the surrounding people have to be mobilized to act as civilian husbands to transport various supplies.The fields were left uncultivated, the rations were looted, and all the mulberry and fruit trees were cut down to make vehicles and tools. After a battle, the people ran away, the plowed fields were deserted, and the trees were gone. corpses all over the place, bones all over the place.

This is why Fei Qian must take down Yinshan Mountain, and why he has to press every step of the way and actively seek the battle.

In addition to seasons, during the cold weapon war, the importance of strategic location was much stronger than that of later war models.

After acquiring Yinshan Mountain and guarding the white road at the southern foot of Yinshan Mountain, the Hu people in the northern part of the desert would not be able to go south to attack the Shangjun area; controlling the Yulin node, coupled with the early warning and buffering of the Xiongnu in the south of Meiji, the Xianbei people in the Yanmen Daijun area would not be able to attack. It's so easy to rush in and plunder the hinterland of Pingyang; maintain the relationship between Baishi Qiang and win over the nomadic Qiang people in the west of Shangjun, and the Qiang people far away in Xiliang usually don't travel thousands of miles to Sanfu instead of crossing the mountains If you come to Shangjun, the entire surrounding area of ​​Shangjun can be completely stabilized, and the farming in it can be restored and developed smoothly.

Because the Yinshan Xianbei tribe is the biggest and most direct threat around Feiqian, it must be eliminated as soon as possible. Otherwise, after the incident in the south breaks out, the Yinshan Xianbei will rush out to take advantage of the fire, and it will definitely make it difficult for him to take care of both ends.

The coalition forces of Fei Qian and Yu Fuluo hardly stopped in Zhenlin, and quickly changed direction, heading straight for the Xianbei army in Yinshan!

The army advanced slowly, and the killing spirit filled the world.

"Report!" A scout came on horseback, "I found Xianbei cavalry ahead, about [-] of them, attacking our army!"

Fei Qian stood up slightly on his horseback, and could vaguely see some traces of smoke and dust in the distance of his sight.

"It's coming so fast!"

Right now, this place happens to be relatively open, and it is relatively flat. If it is a battle, it is really more suitable for a battle between cavalry...

Fei Qian was thinking while ordering the troops to spread out.

The Yinshan Xianbei army wants to fight us head-on?
Or is it an attempt to flee north?
The rest of the Yinshan Xianbei army also has more than ten thousand troops. Why are there only four thousand horses now? Where are the rest of the troops?
where will it be?

Will it be a feint attack on your side, and then the main force will attack Yulin?
Or is it the complete opposite?

If he attacked Yulin, or dared to bypass Yulin and escape, Fei Qian would be happy to see it succeed.

Not to mention the Yulin camp, with strong bows and crossbows, high walls and deep trenches, as long as the Yinshan Xianbei army dares to attack, it will definitely make them happy...

And bypassing Yulin, where can we go?
The hilltop of the river in Yuanyin is also defended by soldiers. As long as the Yinshan Xianbei army dares to enter the valley, they will directly set fire to the mountain!
Instead of taking the Yulin route or the Yuanyin route, if you go to the outer desert area, it is tantamount to putting your own army to death. In a semi-arid area like Bingzhou, if you dare to march far away from the water source, you will not be able to survive for a day or two. It's easy to say, there is no water supply for three to five days, hehe...

Even if a person can kill a horse and drink its blood to maintain life, what about the physical exertion?

In addition, if there were no war horses, the bow-legged barbarian and Fei Qian's regular Han army infantry would not be on the same level at all.

So if Yinshan Xianbei wants to detour through the desert, let them detour, as long as the beacon fires are arranged along the water source line, waiting for work at leisure may win more smoothly.

Fei Qian weighed it left and right, and ordered Ma Yue to take part of the Bingzhou cavalry and recruit Hu cavalry to fight.

Although the Bingzhou cavalry suffered a lot of damage in the battle with the Xianbei Youda Danghu, it was not a big problem to face the [-] Xianbei cavalry.

At this moment, the smoke and dust rose again in the distance, and a scout rushed over with his face covered in dust. "Report! More than [-] Xianbei riders were found, and they are about to encircle Captain Ma's troops from the right!"

　Life is alive, it is hard to think about it...

　　I have been busy with all kinds of competitions since I was born, and my heart is always lacking. I want better ones...

　　Comparing studies, grades, jobs, girlfriends, wives, children...

　　Seeing that I have been struggling for more than 20 years, I can finally take a breath of stability, and various diseases have come up again...

　　If there is a god, Buddha, God, Allah, I am afraid that he is standing in the clouds and laughing coldly...
