Chapter 1945: It is disrespectful to come and not go.
A hint of fish belly white appears on the horizon, the dark curtain quietly pulls away, and morning comes slowly.
Unnamed Ferry, fifty miles away from Yumen Pass.
At this time, Lu Bu was commanding the army to cross the river.
Four temporary floating bridges were erected on the river where the current is not large.
The men and horses passed on the two bridges on the east side, and the baggage and supplies passed on the two bridges on the west side. The fully armed soldiers lined up in neat queues, and under the leadership of their respective commanders, they walked onto the pontoon bridge in an orderly manner and passed quickly. One car after another
A carload of weapons and equipment, food, grass and baggage were quickly sent to the other side thanks to the efforts of the officers and soldiers.
This was Yunji's first time to participate in such a large-scale battle. Well, strictly speaking, it was his first time on the battlefield. Standing by the river, watching the bustling soldiers passing by and listening to the noisy sounds, it was both novel and exciting.
"Captain Meng, there are so many people and so many things. If it were me, it would definitely be a mess..." Yun Er grabbed Meng Hong and turned on the nagging mode.
Under Lu Bu's account, Wei Xu, as Lu Bu's adjutant, is often responsible for handling Lu Bu's tasks, while Meng Hong is Wei Xu's adjutant, responsible for some specific executions, and at the same time, Meng Hong was born in Meng.
When he was not joining the hussars, he was also hanging out in the mountains and forests, so naturally he and Yun Er had some similar topics.
Meng Hong sent his soldiers across the river one by one and said: "How about it, do you want to learn? This is very simple..."
"Okay, okay..." Yun Er believed it and said happily, "Is it easier than learning the halberd technique of the Great Protector?"
Meng Hong was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "This is not easy to compare..."
Yunji still held some hope and said, "Then you can tell me first."
Meng Hong pointed with his hand and said: "With so many soldiers gathered here, we must first consider the safety of the army and be prepared to defend and counterattack at any time. Therefore, we must make reasonable arrangements, such as letting which one
The soldiers of that group cross the river first, and the soldiers and horses of that group cross the river later... We are all cavalry, so it is simpler. If there are infantry, you also need to consider whether to let the sword and shield bearers cross first, or the spearmen, or...
…』
"Okay, okay...I know..." Yun Er didn't wait for Meng Hong to finish, he already felt that his head had swelled to three times its original size, "I know, this is even worse than the one from the Imperial Academy."
Harder……"
Meng Hong laughed.
In the distance, Lu Bu seemed to hear the laughter of Meng Hong and Yun Er, glanced at them slightly, and then turned his head to look ahead, in the direction of Yumen Pass.
Lu Bu remembered Li Ru's explanation.
Yun Rong is the leverage to break the situation, but it does not mean that after having the leverage, nothing needs to be done.
If you want to leverage such a large territory in the Western Region, when the stepping stone and the intensity will be the key to the next step.
Lu Bu's job now is to bring the lever, find a suitable position, reach in, and pry it...
Li Ru roughly divided the entire Western Region into four parts, called the Four Regions. One is from the east of Congling and west of Liusha; the second is from the west of Congling and east of the bend of the river; the third is south of Tongue,
North of Yuezhi; the last part is between the West Sea and south of Shuize.
This area is much larger than the small area called the "Western Regions Protectorate". The west of Dunhuang, the north and south of the Tianshan Mountains, Central Asia, and West Asia are all the "Western Regions". If such a large area is governed solely by the Han people,
, there is no way.
If we want to carry out garrison management, then the number of soldiers will be very large, and the consumption will naturally be very large, so we can only rely on the local autonomy of the Western Regions, and as autonomy, there are also differences...
Although Li Ru did not explain it in detail, Lu Bu also knew that Li Ru should have a method, and before this method could be implemented, Lu Bu needed to make preliminary preparations.
Just like Ban Dingyuan back then, only the severed bloody heads can let these barbarians in the Western Regions know that the Han people are coming for real...
……(*`ェ′*)……
At three o'clock in the morning, Quesu from Yanqi and Amsi from Shache led their two coalition forces and slowly formed an array in front of the small Fangpan City at Yumen Pass.
Beyond Yumen Pass is the area of the Western Region Protectorate in the traditional sense of the Han Dynasty. It extends from Haitou to the west to Shule. It borders Wusun on the top and Congling on the bottom. It is a very large area, but it is also very complicated.
Area.
Lu Bu and his troops had once arrived at Haitou, which was the original capital of the Han Dynasty. However, due to long-term desolation and intentional destruction by the barbarians, Haitou County was basically in ruins, and it was impossible to survive for a long time.
After a period of time, they naturally retreated to Dunhuang. It was during this period of advancement and retreat that these barbarians from the Western Regions, who were accustomed to freedom, felt insulted.
How can the Han people really come and go when they want? Come in when they want and leave when they want? If we don't teach the Han people a lesson, won't it mean that in the future the Han people will come in and out and make themselves want to die?
So the Kucha people took the lead, and naturally got the support of many people. They united with Yanqi and Shache and pressed against Haitou until the Yumen Pass was closed.
But now, Quesu, the leader of Yanqi, and Amsi, the leader of Shache, feel that they are a little impulsive.
Impulse is the devil...
Qiuci Baixiong teamed up with other Hu people to send troops to Dunhuang. In addition to showing force, the most important thing was to take the opportunity to rob property. After all, Han people's things are all good things. Another reason was to settle accounts with Bai Shiqiang, especially
In recent years, through the trade of Baishi Qiang, the Hu people in the Western Regions have consumed a large number of various furs that have been reserved for many years, and Baishi Qiang is said to be under the rule of this hussar general.
At the beginning, the Hu people in the Western Regions thought that the Baishi Qiang people were fools, but later they realized that they themselves were the fools.
Things are rare and expensive, so the Western Regions have not had large-scale trade with the Han Dynasty for a long time. There are more cattle and sheep skins, and naturally they are cheaper. But now a batch of materials are exchanged at a very low price. After clearing the inventory, the Western Regions
These barbarians discovered that they had actually lost a lot of money...
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The middlemen shout every day that they are not making money, there is no price difference, and they are just doing business. In fact, hey... if they really make no money and there is no price difference, the middlemen will still be so bright and happy and shout loudly.
What?
"Headman, are we starting to attack?" A Xiaoqushuai asked Que Sudao.
Que Su looked at the Han soldiers who were guarding the city behind the closed Jade Gate in the distance, shook his head, and asked: "Have the people who contacted Nuoqiang, Gaochang, Shule, Qule, and Khotan come back?"
"Not yet..." Xiaoqushuai replied.
Que Su cursed something in a low voice and shook his head.
In fact, there are some small countries and tribes, such as Xiye, Zihe, Yinai, etc. These so-called countries are actually a small area, a tribe, or a combination of several tribes. Generally speaking, they are
He was the type who would please everyone he met and then fall in that direction if the wind struck him, so Que Su didn't ask at all.
As long as the Western Region Allied Forces have the upper hand, these guys will immediately jump out and wag their tails faster than a windmill, but if the Han people win...
Therefore, these small tribes are actually the next target in the minds of Que Su and others. It's just that the Han people are in front now and they can't take care of dealing with these small countries for the time being.
Now, these guys seem to smell something unusual...
It was originally agreed that these people would come up after the fight started, but now Que Su sent people to rush them, but these guys were still hiding behind and motionless.
"So today..." Xiao Qushuai looked at Que Su's face and asked hesitantly, "Headman, what should we do?"
Que Su sneered: "How to do it? Just do it! If these guys don't move, neither will we!"
