The Huns were once an extremely powerful existence that wreaked havoc in the north of the Han Dynasty.~,

Under the leadership of Maodun Shanyu, they almost completed the feat of foreigners marching south to the Central Plains.

But even so, they still succeeded in counterattacking the powerful Donghu with a relatively weak force, and drove the Da Yueshi to the far west, and forced the Han to the south to spend a large amount of wealth and offer beautiful girls every year.

satisfy them.

However, as a bandit nation on horseback, the Huns were not able to successfully get rid of their identity as pirates and become representatives of gentlemen like a certain pirate nation in the future. Even though the blood of pirates was still flowing in their bodies, they were still on the surface.

It became a world-famous existence and led the entire world civilization for hundreds of years.

Therefore, after the continuous attacks by the Han Dynasty, by this time, the originally powerful Huns were not only divided into two tribal alliances, the southern and northern tribes, but the northern Huns were also driven to the far northwest and became a group of frightened birds. Facing Li Shushi's crusade against the Western Regions

The army had even lost the courage to face it. When they heard the news of the arrival of the Han army, they were in panic all day long. When they heard the news that the Han people had defeated the Xianbei people, who had become the new grassland overlords in the eyes of the Huns, they immediately raised their clans.

Relocation, looking south in a hurry.

As for the other group of Southern Xiongnu, they have recuperated and regained good strength after attaching themselves to the Han Dynasty. However, while their strength was restored, they were also eroded by the ideas of the Han Dynasty. They continued to be invaded by this advanced culture.

They tried their best to resist, but the result was that they could only slow down the rate of assimilation, but could not fundamentally change this trend.

Now, because of the emergence of Li Shushi, this assimilation process has been greatly accelerated.

Perhaps the concept of the Huns as a nation can still be maintained, but as those Huns who wanted to resist this trend went into the coal mines and were sent to the construction sites of road construction, they became builders of a better life in Bingzhou, and for

Bingzhou's bright future has contributed every bit of his sweat and even blood, and the remaining Huns

People continued to sink in the beautiful vision that Li Shushi weaved for him. Many Huns have even become the staunchest supporters of the Bingzhou Army because they have more opportunities here. Their families can benefit from their efforts.

Achieving a better life is a beauty that the people on the grasslands can never imagine.

If this situation continues for more than fifty years, even if there are still people who want to use their identity as Huns to rebel in the future, they will not be able to prevent the former overlord of the grassland from disappearing as an independent nation. Because no matter how much they emphasize that they are Huns,

The identity of the people, the language they speak is the Mandarin of Bingzhou, the food they eat is the delicacy spread in Bingshuo area or Guanzhong area, and the characters they write are Han Chinese professors.

The official script and simplified characters given to them, and the knowledge they learned were basically Han people's rituals, music, poetry, except for the knowledge of animal husbandry, which was passed down because of the recognition of the Han people. Their way of life was either farming in the fields like the Han people, or

They are also engaged in farming and animal husbandry activities that are closely related to the Han people. They have simply forgotten what kind of spirit their ancestors had and what kind of will they had to fight against the wind, frost, rain and snow on the grassland.

They can no longer go back to their past lives.

Therefore, even if it is not very obvious, the Huns under Li Shushi's rule have changed a lot from the original way of life of this nation. Even the Gongsun family in Liaodong has heard of such changes.

In addition to the two major forces of the Northern and Southern Huns, there are also some "other tribes" of the Huns on the grassland. For example, they are more cruel, love to kill, take pleasure in war, and like to participate in various wars as mercenaries. They have no moral integrity.

Hugh Tu Hu is the one who sells his life for money.

However, although these tribes also belong to the concept of Xiongnu, they are far away from the control of the Xiongnu royal court and work as mercenaries in various places. Therefore, even the customs of each tribe are different, let alone the same as those of the Xiongnu.

The royal court of the Huns.

It can be said that this group of Xiutuhu is really a "different tribe" that has become independent from the Xiongnu race.

The situation of other "other tribes" of the Huns, large and small, is basically similar to that of Xiutu Hu. Due to various reasons, relatively unique customs have been formed. Although they are not completely independent from the Xiongnu race, they are already easy to distinguish.

Make a difference.

Because of this understanding, when the sentinel reported that the Huns appeared in the Xianbei formation, although it seemed to be somewhat different from the Xiongnu royal court headquarters that can be said to exist in name only, it could still be seen that it was the habit of the Huns.

Pretend. That's why Gongsun Du's first reaction after receiving the information was the idea of ​​"Has Li Shushi reached peace with the Xianbei Royal Court?" The more he thought about it, the more he felt that such an idea was not unreasonable.

There are no permanent enemies and there are no permanent friends in this world, especially for countries and tribes. The front foot has just been informed that Yuan Shao intends to deduct the promised money to Xianbei and Wuwan because of Gongsun Zan's self-exile.

Therefore, it is indeed very possible for the Xianbei people to switch to the Bingzhou Army camp at the higher price offered by Li Shushi.

The Bingzhou Army has been fighting with the Xianbei people for many years, and their strength is naturally deeply recognized by the grassland people. Even if Li Shushi extended a friendly hand, it would not be considered a sign of weakness, but would be considered a sign of mercy from the strong.

——For the Han people, this statement may be considered as a matter of face, but for the prairie people who value practical benefits, it really is nothing.

I have not seen that the lives of the Huns have gotten better and better after being annexed by the Bingzhou Army, so that the opposition voices among the Huns have become smaller and smaller, especially those grassroots herdsmen. Now even if some Huns nobles want to incite, it will be difficult to cause a riot.

commotion.

"No, this is not right. We, Liaodong, are alone overseas, and we have no enmity with that Li Shushi. How could Yuan Shao not get rid of him, how could he cross the mountains and seas to attack us, Liaodong? Isn't this the mistake of the Qin State's "attacking far away and close friends"?

, this matter is really a bit strange."

Until this time, Gongsun Du still felt that those Huns should have come from Li Shushi's instructions to appear in the Xianbei army. As for whether those Huns troops came from other tribes, Gongsun Du had not thought about it, but if

The size of that army was only three to two thousand, and Gongsun Du might not have concluded so. However, although the sentinels who returned one after another suffered heavy losses, they still proved that there were not only Huns in the Xianbei formation, but even more than

Scale of 20,000.

Looking at the entire Han Dynasty, only Li Shushi's Bingzhou Army could assemble such a huge Huns cavalry!

But just like Gongsundu's judgment, even if Li Shushi wanted to use the hands of the Xianbei people to destroy his enemies, he shouldn't project his power to the distant Liaodong - after gaining Liaodong, both wings would fly together? Don't be ridiculous,

Not only are the muddy ponds and saline-alkali lands in the Western Liaoning Corridor difficult for troops to pass through for most of the year, but they will most likely not be able to come back. Once they return, they will have to wait for a long time before they can send troops again. Even if they take the small road outside the Great Wall, the losses along the way will be huge.

Extremely huge.

It can be said that the Western Liaoning Corridor at this time will definitely not be like in the game where the two princes and grandsons can square off and fight each other. Instead, it is more like the two classic battles between Cao Cao and Sima Yi. The former ended up only because of his poor choice of time.

He was able to take a small road and relied on a surprise attack and Zhang Liao's bravery in Liucheng to kill Tadun, Karasuma's de facto leader, thereby cutting off the Yuan family's last chance.

Let go of Gongsun Kang at that time, not only because he was worried that the Yuan family would join forces with the Gongsun family to fight against Cao Cao. It was also because after that long and arduous march, in fact, Cao Cao's army had no ability to continue to advance eastward.

Guo Jia proposed withdrawing his troops. After some hesitation, Cao Cao would definitely choose the option of withdrawing his troops, because that was the only option.

On the other hand, Sima Yi could be said to have made thorough preparations, and then relied on the Wei State's completely restored strong national power and the elite soldiers trained in the battle against Zhuge Liang's invasion to crush Gongsun all the way.

Even so, the hundred days of marching time is definitely enough for

Any coach would feel palpitations. That is to say, the national strength of Wei at that time was enough to support it, and Sima Yi had developed extremely strong detailed judgment ability after many years of fighting with Zhuge Liang, a military commander who was extremely good at details. This allowed Liaodong to fight against this

Only the super old vixen in the late Three Kingdoms ended in a disastrous defeat in the battle.

In fact, in the history of another dimension until the later Sui and Tang Dynasties, although he was a prodigal, it can be said that it was founded by Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty who opened up thousands of miles of territory and conquered the descendants of Goguryeo who occupied Liaodong from the time he was the prince.

Goryeo Regime, Chapter

Due to hasty preparations for a campaign, the Sui army after the autumn rain and long march was completely unable to exert its due combat power. The troops commanded by Yang Guang, who was still the prince at the time, were on the verge of collapse without even encountering a single battle.

the edge of.

In the later Tang Dynasty, they simply switched to marching by sea, and then they broke through the "natural chasm" road in the Western Liaoning Corridor. From this, we can see how deceptive the idea of ​​attacking the Central Plains from Liaodong was.

.

Moreover, although there is sufficiently advanced maritime transportation in this era, Liaodong does not have a maritime fleet capable of transporting more than 50,000 people, let alone more than 50,000 soldiers who can quickly go into battle after wandering at sea for a long time. This means

If Li Shushi occupied Liaodong and prepared everything, that would be enough time to determine the outcome of the war in the Central Plains.

It is said that I spent a long time at home holding back on science and technology, and finally built the ultimate army and learned the ultimate magic. When I went out, I saw that the originally chaotic world had returned to peace. If I continued to stir up trouble, I would have to face the encirclement and suppression of people from all walks of life across the continent.

, by the way, the feeling at this time is more than vomiting blood? Damn it, I just want to hang myself from Dongnanzhi, right?

It can be said that compared to Jiangdong across the Yangtze River, Liaodong is actually easier to defend and harder to attack. However, the population here is far smaller than that of Jiangdong, and the development potential is not as good as the more suitable climate, or that it is hotter for plants.

Jiangdong can mature faster, so the success rate of the separatist regime here against the central government is even lower than in Jiangdong.

By the way, in these war years, the more often plants are harvested, the better, and the higher the yield, the better. As for taste, only modern people will pursue it when they are extremely rich in materials. For ancient times,

For people, even for those old people who have experienced three years of natural disasters, their current life is as natural as paradise.

It's like if you ask an emperor who has been hungry for three days to eat rotten cabbage and tofu soup, he can still taste the heavenly taste of pearls, emeralds and white jade.

After thinking about it for a long time, he didn't come up with any results, but the changes in the situation would not stop because of Gongsun Du's thinking.

Soon, the Xianbei and Wuwan people had gathered more than 150,000 troops near the border of Liaodong - this cannot be regarded as an exact number, because later, the scouts and sentinels could not get close to the Hu people.

At the garrison, the results obtained are just speculations based on some conditions on the periphery. Obviously there is no accuracy at all, but even so, the total strength of Hu Qi can definitely only be less than this number.

There may be more than this number.

If Li Shushi were here, he might sigh - the information provided by Yuwen Tuo really doesn't have much of a problem, and with the help of that group of "mysterious people", even the leader is still a little reluctant. But Qianman is not satisfied with Xianbei

The integration of various ministries has obviously made a substantial breakthrough. Now, apart from Yuwen Tuo and some Xianbei tribesmen who are resisting desperately, there are only three people left on the grassland, Tuoba Liwei, Yan Rou and Yelida, hugging each other to keep warm.

Stand firmly on your feet.

As for the leader of the loser in the struggle, he is just a decoration without power. Qianman no longer worries about that "old" waste. He wants to realize the dream of his ancestors with the help of those "mysterious people"

Expect to achieve a great cause that even Tan Shihuai could not achieve. All obstacles in front of him will be destroyed, including his former best friend Yuwen Tuo!

Finally, when the Xianbei people felt that the pressure they were putting on Liaodong was huge enough, in an afternoon with dark clouds and it seemed that there would be a downpour at any time, Qianman, who had been waiting patiently, finally issued the order to attack in his tent.

Order.

Facing the 15,000-strong Xianbei army vanguard led by Su Li, Gongsun Du naturally could not sit still and wait for death.

As a native who has lived in the Liaodong Peninsula since he was a child, Gongsundu cannot be said to have a thorough understanding of the situation in Liaodong and surrounding areas. But he is still quite knowledgeable. Facing a possible attack by the Xianbei people, he immediately started to attack.

With full power, all the forces that can be mobilized were mobilized, and the most important thing to rely on was the support from the archers and Fuyu.

The relationship between the Fuyu people and the Xianbei people has always been bad.

It stands to reason that one comes from the grasslands and the other comes from the mountains and jungles, and there should be no conflict between the two. But in fact, as two equally aggressive alien tribes unite, the battle between the two

It has never decreased.

It's just that the cavalry on the grassland cannot penetrate deep into the dense forests, and the warriors who are good at fighting in the mountains and jungles have difficulty extending their power to the beautiful pearl of the grassland. They are quite capable of conquering both sides and taking advantage of their familiar geographical advantages to achieve subtle conflicts.

balance.
