Chapter 2274: Hard Bones: Beef Bones and Pork Bones
. , fastest update!
When the northern part of Youzhou was in chaos, Zhao Yun met the leader of Rouran in Mobei.
The tribes on the grassland have been influenced by the Xiongnu for a long time, so the tribal leaders in Rouran also call themselves kings, nobles, etc.
It's not that the Rouran people don't want to call themselves Khan, but if they want to be called a Khan, they must have the strength of "Khan" level. And now, Rouran is still very weak and is often pushed to the ground by the Xianbei people.
Whenever you rub, rub how you want...
Strictly speaking, Rouran cannot be called "Rouran" now. It's just because General Fei Qian called it that, so it is called Rouran.
Then people from Rouran actually think the name Rouran is good...
Well, this causal relationship seems a bit confusing.
Rouran is actually a bastard.
Zahu doesn’t mean bastard,
China has also promoted the blood-only theory for a period of time. However, after the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, especially after the former Qin Dynasty, after the cry of "Princes and generals would rather have their blood", pure blood was no longer popular, and the ability theory gradually
It started to rise, but was suppressed by the joint efforts of the clan and the small-scale peasant economy.
Generally speaking, the current "bloodline" of the Han Dynasty has been transformed into a "clan", which is actually somewhat similar to the tribes of the Hu people, but the details may be slightly different.
Therefore, Rouran's miscellany is just that these Rouran "clan" are relatively chaotic...
There is a saying that "a long illness makes a good doctor", and it may be appropriate to put it here in Rouran. It does not mean that people in Rouran get sick easily, but because of Rouran's history, it has been repeatedly attacked by China and major universities.
A temporary community formed by the losers of the grassland leader.
Rouran's earliest body was a part of "Ghost Fang".
At the very beginning, Guifang wanted to compete with the Shang Dynasty people in a bone club swinging competition, but the Shang Dynasty people took out bronze vessels...
Then the Oni Fang people had no choice but to run away, cursing. Some went to the northeast, and some went to the northwest. The ones that went to the northeast later evolved into "Nail Spirits", then evolved into "Ding Spirits", and finally into
The current "Ding Ling" is basically two different things from Guifang...
In Beidi during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, two brothers, Chi Di and Bai Di, had finally switched to bronze weapons. They wanted to compete with various bosses in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. However, when they arrived at the scene, they discovered that several gangster brothers from the Spring and Autumn Period were actually...
Shamelessly engage in a wheel battle!
So the two Beidi brothers also had bruises and swollen faces. They left the main battlefield cursing and sat on the cold bench with the remaining ghosts of the loser group.
Further back, there are some people from the Huns, wiping their tears, and huddled together on a bench with these people.
If there were no Fei Qian in history...well, the stirrup, Rouran would be the one on the bench, and the next loser group player would be ushered in, Xianbei's Tuoba tribe...
Therefore, if we are really particular about it, Rouran should be called the "Avengers". Well, that's right, it's the "Avengers" who sat on the cold bench and gritted his teeth while drawing small circles and cursing.
And now Zhao Yun has found the leader of Rouran, just to tell the Rouran people, how can you be so cowardly? Ding Ling is a hammer! Go up and fuck him! I will give you a knife, take it, be brave and go up !
The leader of Rouran looked at Xiaodao, uh, at Zhao Yun with a sad face, and spoke in Xiongnu in a weird accent, "General... this matter is not easy to handle..."
Zhao Yun's smile remained unchanged: "But what's the difficulty?"
The Rouran head man nodded and said: "The Jiankun people...as long as the general can help us deal with the Jiankun people...we will definitely help the general!"
Jiankun?
Zhao Yun frowned slightly.
This name was indeed unfamiliar to Zhao Yun. He seemed to have heard it somewhere, but he couldn't remember it for a while.
Zhang He looked at Zhao Yun and said in a low voice: "In the early Han Dynasty, the Xiongnu were able to strengthen themselves, and they conquered Hunyu, Qushe, Dingling, Likun, Xinli, etc.... Likun was the stronghold of Jian. Kun... later became the territory of King Youxian of the Xiongnu..."
"Oh..." Zhao Yun thought for a moment, glanced at Zhang He, and nodded, "I understand."
Gan Feng's eyes widened, and he understood something. What did he understand? Can anyone explain it?
"Come here!" Zhao Yun ordered, "Bring me a certain scepter!"
Not long after, a guard came to deliver the scepter of Zhao Yun's General Pingbei.
Zhao Yun took the staff and handed it to the headman Rouran, saying, "The leader can lead people to hold this staff and go to Jiankun to call his envoys to see him!"
The Rouran-headed man subconsciously took the scepter, then was stunned for a moment, and looked up at Zhao Yun, "General..." Although the Rouran-headed man did not finish what he said, his expression showed doubts inadvertently, just like that. How can a hairy stick have such magical power? Just let people from Jiankun come and do it?
Zhao Yun smiled slightly: "You might as well give it a try."
The Rouran-headed man lowered his head, holding the staff in both hands, "Follow the general's instructions..."
The scepter is actually very interesting to talk about. The physical body of the scepter, the so-called hairy stick, does not have much lethality. If it is used for fighting, it is not as useful as a serious sword or gun, but it It represents an authority, a kind of authority, so its role is far beyond what a hairy stick can summarize.
Rourantou left doubtfully.
Gan Feng sneered twice, "This old guy still wants to trick us into helping him fight... What is that strong bone?"
"Jiankun. Not Jiangu." Zhang He corrected.
"Uh, Jian Kun..." Gan Feng nodded, "Anyway, this old guy is only thinking of good things. I'll help him break this Jian... Jian bone. Then he will turn against us again. Hum, he will change his mind and let us If you go and hunt down a lot of hard bones, beef bones, pig bones, etc., then it’s not over yet..."
Zhang Heba smacked his lips and said, forget it, I won't correct him. Anyway, what Gan Feng said was correct. If he really followed Rouran's lead, he would be absolutely wrong.
Zhao Yun also nodded and stood up, "General Gan is right, that's it... Let Rouran do what we want... But we can't say that we don't give Rouran hope at all... Let's leave it like this for now.
, wait until the people from Jiankun arrive..."
"General, this Jian Gu, uh, Jian Kun..." Gan Feng still didn't understand, "Will it really come?"
When Zhao Yun and others were looking for the leader of Rouran before, the leader of Rouran pushed and blocked him several times but could not escape. Later, Ding Ling came, which was equivalent to pushing Rouran, and the leader of Rouran was pushed to the place.
In front of Zhao Yun and others, Jiankun is even more remote, so why would he be willing to travel a long distance to meet him?
"This..." Zhao Yun pointed at Zhang He, "Ask him, he understands..."
After saying that, Zhao Yun turned around and left.
"This... General Zhang..." Gan Feng turned to look at Zhang He.
Zhang He smiled and stood up, "It's a long story... I'm afraid someone will say it's water... How about next time? Next time?"
Gan Feng quickly stood up and followed Zhang He's footsteps, "That bastard is talking nonsense? General Zhang, just tell me, otherwise I won't be able to sleep well at night..."
……┐(?~?)┌……
Cutting off food does not mean that there will be no food and grass immediately.
Some people think that when food is out, they can still rob the surrounding areas, plunder the people, and even eat human flesh. However, in fact, the majority of the army is ordinary people. If they ignore looting places or even use human flesh as food, then this kind of
The army will not exist for long...
Therefore, in ancient times when transportation was inconvenient, it was very important to maintain a smooth grain route.
Lulong Village is mainly for defense against the Hu people in the northeast of Xing'an Mountains, so the military village is located on the easternmost side of the Xuwu Mountains, stuck on the mountain pass. To the east of Lulong Village is the alluvial plain, and the Shizi River alluvial
To the north of the plain are hills and mountains of various sizes, while to the southwest is western Liaoning.
If you really need to take a detour, you can theoretically make a detour as long as you can pass through the area, but it depends on whether it is worth it, or whether the risk is high. In some places, it is okay for herb collectors or small troops to go, but if the troops
When the scale is large, it becomes troublesome. To put it simply, it originally takes five days to travel along the normal road, but if you take a detour into the mountainous area, the original travel of fifty miles per day becomes only five miles per day, and the straight-line distance is only
Two hundred miles turned into four hundred miles after entering the mountainous area. Even if we could really get out, the consumption of time and food would be ten or twenty times more than before!
Not everyone can resist this huge gap...
This is the meaning of military strongholds and passes. It is very difficult to attack, but it is even more uncomfortable to choose not to attack and to take a detour.
Originally, if Gongsun Du wanted to attack Yuyang, he would have to move from Liaodong to Liaoxi step by step. As a result, after Gongsun Du had ships supported by Sun Quan, he bypassed these key points, and then turned around and outflanked him.
Under attack from both inside and outside, these military stronghold passes were hit by surprise.
The general who was originally stationed in Lulong Village was also a son of Cao Chun's family. Cao Chun still remembers the excitement and determination on his young face when the post of general of Lulong Village was handed over to him.
look.
Now……
Gongsun's army may be a little more lenient towards ordinary soldiers of Cao's army, but I'm afraid they won't be merciful towards such non-commissioned officers.
Cao Chun gritted his teeth and waved his hand to signal the cavalry to move faster.
In order to ensure speed, Cao Chun did not bring heavy cavalry this time, but all light cavalry. Thanks to the suppression of the Wuhuan and Xianbei people this time, Cao Chun also put together a luxurious lineup, with a thousand men and two horses, without using an auxiliary
All the soldiers and civilians are regular soldiers, and all the supplies and dry food are on horseback...
Although the number is only a thousand, the cavalry looks inherently larger than the infantry array. In addition, they are equipped with two horses. When these people and horses march together, their momentum will rise with just a scratch. Especially
When we were traveling in the valley of Xuwu Mountain Range, it seemed as if the valley was completely filled. The sounds of people shouting and horses neighing came and went, echoing in the valley.
This is a big gamble.
Cao Hong was reluctant at first. After all, if he was ambushed by Gongsun's army in the mountain road, then there would be no need to launch a surprise attack on Lulong Village. How many people could survive would be a question!
But Cao Chun was very insistent. He was willing to risk his life to block Gongsun's army's return path and strangle Gongsun Du to death in western Liaoning! Only in this way could Cao Chun be relieved of the humiliation he suffered that day!
As a man on the battlefield, of course he has revenge and complaints. As for waiting ten or twenty years, there is no chance. If there is a chance, even if you wait one more day, you are a coward!
In the end, Cao Hong couldn't defeat Cao Chun and agreed. He warned him again and again before leaving. However, both Cao Hong and Cao Chun knew that these warnings were useless. Cao Chun listened and obeyed, but he would not do it, be cautious, let alone move forward cautiously.
, only a sudden advance, a sudden attack!
After several consecutive cavalry battles, Cao Jun's cavalry became more or less similar.
The iron-blooded soldiers themselves were tempered little by little on the battlefield, so the cavalry led by Cao Chun now seems to be a little loose on horseback, but in fact this kind of looseness is sometimes a good thing.
After all, people’s energy cannot be highly concentrated at all times. Being tense for a long time will inevitably cause fatigue to come faster. Therefore, traveling in a more relaxed state can extend the journey and make people and horses less tired.
.
But even so, it is impossible to run directly from the rear to the front line in one breath. You still need to rest when you need to.
Cao Chun looked around, then asked the scouts to go out for inspection, and then gave the order to repair on the spot.
Cao Jun's cavalry gradually stopped, either adjusting their harness, wiping some sweat from the horses and feeding them some food, or bundling some loose dry food ordnance again, and then some got together, shaking their legs and stretching their waists, and so on.
At the same time, of course, they are not as rigorous as the infantry. Coupled with the neighing of the war horses, it is extremely lively in Xu Wushan.
"Have a rest for half an hour!" Cao Chun ordered.
The next step is to defeat Xu Wushan in one go and rush straight to Lulong Village!
In Xuwu Mountain, although the mountain narrows around Lulongzhai, there are still some mountain trails crisscrossing them. These roads can be used by people, but are inconvenient for large troops. Therefore, Lulongzhai can still best control the passage of large armies.
The location is also the target of Cao Chun's adventure.
Cao Chun stood on a big rock and looked towards the direction of Lulong Village. Others could relax, but Cao Chun's spirit was tense all the way. After all, he was the commander of an army and carried the lives of thousands of people on his shoulders.
, no matter how calm they appear on the surface, when sleeping in a campfire in the wild at night, the natives will wake up from time to time in the middle of the night, and then look up at the stars and remain silent.
"General..." Cao Chun's guard handed over a water bag, "Just drink some water..."
Cao Chun nodded, took it, took two sips, and then put it down, "It will be there tomorrow...here it comes!"
There was a faint sound of horse hooves in the distance, and then they saw the scouts originally sent by Cao Chun returning.
"What's the situation ahead? How many defenders are there in Lulong Village?" Cao Chun saw the scout and asked urgently before the scout's breath had calmed down.
"Back, back to the general..." The scout took a breath, "In front... there is nothing unusual in front... Brothers, phew, I have been to the edge of Lulong Village and found nothing unusual... There should be five hundred people in the village.
, up to eight hundred people...the guard should be Gongsun...but I don’t know who it is..."
"Okay!" Cao Chun clapped his hands, "If that's the case, I'll take credit from you! Go and have a rest, and then explore again!"
The scouts also happily accepted the order and retreated without mentioning it.
Just like Cao Chun put the Cao family's children in Lulong Village, Gongsun Du must have been worried about allowing other ordinary generals to garrison such a Guanzhai strategic road. But if it were to be an enlarged general, Gongsun Du's men were not so
Wealthy generals can be used for squandering, so they must be a descendant of the Gongsun clan.
At noon the next day, Gongsun's soldiers on Lulong Village were hiding in the shadows beside the wall to avoid direct sunlight. To the west of Lulong Village, many traces of Gongsun's army breaking through the wall had not yet been repaired.
, just left like that. At the village gate, the stone wall seemed to have been burned once, leaving scorched black marks.
Gongsun's advance was blocked, and Youzhou was invaded by the Ding Ling people. Although the Ding Ling people who were not on the west side of the Xing'an Mountains were not so foolish as to come to attack Lulong Village, the soldiers who had been passing orders in the past few days, as well as the soldiers whose faces were getting worse and worse.
General Gongsun seems to be able to explain some problems.
At the west end of the road, only sixty or seventy people came staggeringly. The first ones were still wearing the tattered banner of Gongsun. Everyone looked embarrassed. They were wearing uniforms, one on the left and one on the right. There was no one.
The people are intact. There are still some people with their hands and feet bound, and even their bodies are stained with blood for who knows how long. The black and red smudges cover a large area. They are supported by the robes around them and are staggering towards Lulong Village.
.
However, these Gongsun soldiers, who look like defeated soldiers, have not forgotten their identity as soldiers. At least they still have weapons in their hands...
The Gongsun soldiers on duty at Lulong Village were naturally frightened and started running in panic. Then someone climbed onto the wall of the village and shouted at the group of defeated soldiers: "Who are they! Where did they come from?"
?!』
Cao Chun was in the queue, also wearing rags. He poked a Liaodong soldier next to him and shouted in a low voice, "Reply..."
"Then what...are you so stupid..." the Liaodong soldiers shouted, "You and I will never end it. Those bastards from Cao Jun are here, and the generals are so desperate."
...Uncle, I will fight my way out to give you a message...Hurry up, open the door and let the uncle in..."
The Gongsun soldiers on Lulong Village suddenly burst into an uproar.
"Who the hell are you?" The military academy above Lulong Village also cursed, "Look at you brats, ah, each of them has a disabled arm blocking their legs, and they also have a shit-eating mouth..."
During the Q&A, uh, okay, exchange of insults, Cao Chun secretly took the bow under the cover of the crowd, pinched an arrow in his hand, and covered it under the broken ground.
Under the cloth robe, he followed the crowd towards the foot of Lulong Village.
The Gongsun soldiers at Lulong Village didn't pay much attention either. Their main attention was focused on the news that Wuzhong County was raided by Cao's army. They all whispered to each other and were shocked by the sudden news.
"Open the door! You can't help but pull away... Sir, please hurry up and open the door!"
The distance between the two sides is getting closer and closer. Cao Chun and others are almost standing under the wall of the village. Gongsun Military Academy on Lulong Village is still shaking his head, "No! You can't open the door! Look at you, you are such an idiot..."
Cao Chun suddenly stood up straight and raised his bow. The depression that he had suppressed in his chest for a long time after losing Yuyang, the humiliation he had suffered in these days, and the fear he had experienced along the way, all came together with a cry at this moment.
He roared out: "Kill! Seize the stronghold!"
Following Cao Chun's roar, an arrow shot out like lightning, hitting Gongsun Military Academy directly in the face of Lulong Village!
In the astonishment of Gongsun's soldiers at Lulong Village, Gongsun Military Academy had an arrow stuck in his head and fell backwards!
"kill!"
Along with the loud shouts of Cao Chun and others, smoke and dust filled the sky in the distance. Cao's cavalry behind them shouted wildly and ran towards Lulong Village!
