Hanbo

Chapter 104

After cleaning the battlefield in the afternoon, a company of troops was sent out to bring back the cattle and sheep, and the army continued to march towards the No. 4 tribe.

The No. 3 tribe battle was delayed by almost an hour than expected, but unexpectedly, before the evening, the army still reached the No. 4 tribe.

That's just right, without delaying the original plan, continue to attack No. 4.

Still the same, first the Huns rushed to kill, but this time they were very obedient, they retreated immediately after the order, and none of them were greedy for heads or property.

One was that they were afraid, terrified, and the other was that the judges had good things to say about them.

If you are obedient, you will naturally have meat to eat.

Although they were afraid of Huo Shan, they still believed in Huo Shan, because they ate meat every day these days, and they had never lived such a good life.

After the Huns retreated, the Habayashi Army entered the field, rushed to kill, deterred, surrendered, and then finished.

After the No. 4 tribe captured, they rushed to clean up the battlefield before dark, and the army marched 5 miles northwest of No. 6 and No. [-], leaving the bloody battlefield.

On the sixth day of March, they rushed in the morning and arrived at No. 6 tribe in the afternoon. They wiped out the tribe, cleaned up the battlefield, and returned with a trophy. The army marched [-] miles westward and rested for one night.

On the morning of the seventh day of March, they wiped out tribe No. 5, cleaned the battlefield, and then headed south, returning to the camp at noon on the eighth day of March.

In the early morning of the ninth day of March, the front and rear set off together, and rushed to the No. 110 tribe 2 miles west.

After marching for fifty miles, the rear headed towards the No. 1 medium-sized tribe in the northwest direction, and the front continued to go to No. 2, arriving in the afternoon, and then destroying it.

Then sweep the battlefield, march and join the rear.

On the afternoon of the tenth day of March, the entire army arrived seventy miles southeast of the No. 1 medium-sized tribe, chose a hidden place, set up camp, and rested for three days.

In six days, they fought back and forth for 800 miles and wiped out five small tribes.

914 levels of beheading, 866 soldiers, 1020 prisoners, more than 4000 horses, more than 11000 cattle and sheep, 138 gold property, five small tribes worthy of the name.

None of the soldiers of the Habayashi Army was injured or injured. Fortunately, the Huns surrendered 267 people, um, plus the thirty or so who were executed by the army.

Depart from Chang'an on the 29th day of the first lunar month, arrive at Yuyang on the 28th, depart from Yuyang on the [-]th day of the second month, enter the grassland on the [-]th day, encounter the enemy at the beginning of the [-]th day, and now have another six days and two months until the tenth day of March.

Before setting off, Huo Shan was in high spirits. He felt that when he entered the grassland, the Huns would let him sweep them away and become a general after the first battle.

But the reality is just the opposite of the imagination.

It has been two months since I arrived in the grassland, look at the results of the battle now.

Beheading 1604, surrendering troops 1638, lost some in the past few days, only 1371 remained, 2323 captives, more than 8000 horses, more than 22000 cattle and sheep, and 2000 were eaten, only 20000 were left, and the property was only 400 gold. did not find.

It's far from what I imagined. If it wasn't for Xiao Hei and a little bit of luck, maybe he wouldn't even have this.

In fact, for ordinary generals, it is considered pretty good, beheading over a thousand, capturing over five thousand captives, and over thirty thousand cattle, sheep and horses.

Calculated based on the [-] men who went to the expedition, Huo Shan didn't lose a single person, and beheading and capturing more than [-] captives is already too much.

This is a rare victory in ten years!

But who is Huo Shan? Huo Shan is the second champion, not to mention surpassing the first one, at least he is comparable.

To compare, Huo Shan's number of beheadings must exceed 2026 to qualify, which is more than 400 short of level [-].

Old Huo is too powerful, Xiao Huo is under a lot of pressure!

And Huo Shan, in order to compete, naturally set his sights on Zuo Xianwang, if he couldn't kill the king, it would be a great achievement to kill the king's flag.

Zuo Xianwang's position is vacant, and the Zhanwang Banner is similar to that of Zhanwang.

Then King Zuoguli appeared again, and Huo Shan naturally set his sights on him.

Although in special circumstances, Zuo Xian Wang Wang Qi is similar to himself, but speaking of it, beheading Wang Qi is not as great as beheading a living king!

But there is no rush, take your time, there is still time.

After dealing with this medium-sized tribe, go to the northeast and southwest regions to sweep around, and then we can start to deal with King Zuoguli.

And the key point is the next medium-sized tribe. It would be great if they could eat him quietly.

If the news is not leaked, it will really have to rush thousands of miles.

.........

On the afternoon of March [-]th, Huo Shan was sitting in the big tent, holding a piece of paper in his hand, on which was written the specific situation of the medium-sized tribe that the scouts had come to investigate.

The tribe is [-] miles northwest of the army, the terrain is open, and there is a flat river. There is not even a dirt bag around the tribe camp, only a gentle slope to the east.

The nearest 300-meter-high soil bag is thirty miles away?
What troubled Huo Shan the most was that this medium-sized settled tribe had patrols roaming around day and night, and the range was not very large, twenty miles in the daytime and ten miles in the night.

But this was the first time he encountered this kind of tribe that deployed scouts in his free time, and Huo Shan guessed in his heart that the leader of this tribe should be a mid-level general.

As for the senior general, judging by the size of his tribe, it should be impossible, even if he is a nobleman, it is impossible.

The senior generals are all tribal leaders with a population of over [-].

The scouts avoided patrolling and investigated. There are about 700 dome tents, and each tent has 6 to 8 people, which means that this is a high-level and medium-sized tribe.

Whether it's too much or too little, the population is at least [-], and Huo Tan is not surprised when the number of soldiers reaches [-].

For such a medium-sized tribe of over [-], there are no more than [-] Huns in the entire Huns.

There are over [-] horses and [-] cattle and sheep. If this wave is eaten, it will be worth the nine small tribes in front.

Of course, it's not without good news.

The good news is that there is a river next to the camp of this tribe, less than two miles away from the camp.

The river surrounded the north and west sides, and Huo Shan really couldn't figure out why they camped here.

Not to mention that a wave of blocking from the upper reaches will flood them, but if the enemy attacks from the south and east, they can only cross the river if they cannot fight.

However, the grasslands cannot be attacked by water.

Although the river is not wide, only about five or six meters, and not deep, it can be crossed by riding a horse, but this place is very bad.

Even if you want something to rely on, finding a mountain, finding a highland, or finding a forest, which one is better than this.

Even if your cattle and sheep need to drink a lot of water, you can choose only one side of the river, and the distance needs to be widened. This river has already half-enclosed the camp.

The most taboo thing for the army is to camp by the riverside of Yimapingchuan.

If you want to camp by the river, there must be highlands and woods next to it, and the distance from the river must be a little further.

Of course, you just need to find a high ground without water.

So the best place is a place with a back, an open front, a smooth road, and a river next to it. This kind of place is the best place to camp.

Maybe it's because the way of thinking of the Huns and the Han people is different. There are rivers on both sides, so it is convenient to drink water?

.........

"Sun Shang, call them all!"

Sun Shang leaned into half of his body from outside the big tent:

"My lord, who are they all called?"

Huo Shan rolled his eyes:
"Who else can they be called? Marquis Jun, Zhong Gan, Zhao Puonu, Yi Jili, and the clerks."

Sun Shang scratched his head, smiled, and saluted with fists in his hands:

"promise."

After a while, everyone arrived. After seeing the ceremony, Huo Shan spoke first, and it was still an old topic:
"Tell me, how to fight?"

After Huo Shan finished speaking, he handed the information to Tian Qianqiu and asked him to show it to everyone, and then he just waited quietly.

After waiting for a while, after everyone finished watching, Zhao Puonu spoke:

"It's a good fight."

Zhao Chongguo next to him added:
"But it's not easy to fight."

The two looked at each other tacitly.

Huo Shan leaned on the back of the chair and raised his eyebrows:

"Tell me, why is it easy to fight, and why is it not easy to fight?"

Zhao Ponu cupped his hands:

"Returning to my lord, four thousand troops are easy to fight. Our army and the Xiongnu surrendered troops are over five thousand. It is still very easy to take down this tribe."

After finishing speaking, he glanced at Zhao Chongguo:

"It's hard to fight because it's difficult to keep everyone in this tribe and prevent them from rushing out.

Our army does not know the specific situation. They may be very tough, or they may be defeated in one blow. "

Huo Shan moved his body to make himself sit more comfortably, then looked at Li Ling and the others:

"Shaoqing, tell me."

Li Ling bowed his hands and saluted, frowning and thinking for a while:
"Return to the captain, the general sees that their camp is at the corner of the river, which is very suitable for water attack!"

Huo Shan shook his head:
"Water attack can't be attacked, one is too time-consuming, our army lacks tools to block water.

There is no suitable place for the other. They are all flat grasslands. If the water cannot be blocked, it will flow to other places.

If you let go of the water, it will be flat land, and it will not flow along your thoughts.

Moreover, the water level drops for no reason during this season, which is easy for the enemy to notice. "

Li Ling bowed his hands to express that he had learned, and then sat back in his seat.

It is not enough to just copy what you read in the book, but also need to be combined with the actual situation.

Everyone thought about it for a long time, and Shangguan Jie came up with an idea, pulling it out to play ranger tactics, Huo Shan just pretended that he hadn't said it.

I said for a long time that it is easy to win, but what I am afraid of is being rushed out. Are you still playing Ranger here?You are deliberately trying to make people run out.

Huo Shan patted his butt, stood up, and walked out of the big tent:

"Think slowly, when you think of a good idea, come and tell me."

Anyway, rest for three days, this is only the first day, take your time.

Huo Shan actually already had an idea in his heart, but these people are the future generals that Huo Shan wants to train.

You can't just listen to Huo Shan in everything, you have to have your own ideas!
Of course, in the Yulin Army, you really have to listen to Huo Shan.

But what about the future?Go out in the future, without Huo Shan, who do you listen to.

Wars are played by talented people.

The two armies confront each other and change formations; you attack and I defend, and you defend and I attack; with the world as the big chessboard, various schemes emerge in endlessly, but that is also the Central Plains War.

Fighting the Huns was actually quite simple in Huo Shan's view. It's not that Huo Shan underestimated the enemy and looked down on them.

As long as your arms are comparable and your sources of news are not lacking, then you will really see one and fight one.
