Chapter 3490 Let's guess together
Fei Qian burped a burp.
He put down the wooden bowl, picked up the water bag and drank two sips, instead of rinsing his mouth, and then swallowed the rinsed water and the residue in his mouth.
Fei Qian was full, but there were many hungry people in front of him.
These hungry people were surrendered soldiers and prisoners of Cao's army.
Fei Qian was not a saint, but he knew that these Cao's surrendered soldiers and prisoners were not his enemies, but poor people who wanted to eat for a bite of food.
Under the distant sky, one figure after another slowly walked on this yellow land.
Further apart, huge pillars of smoke rose up.
That is the smoke remaining on the battlefield.
Burn corpses or some other waste.
These figures are closer, swaying and extending.
There were Hussars holding tricolor flags around the surrounding area, either walking slowly or shouting around on both sides of the road.
These people were captured by Cao's army or surrendered soldiers.
After defeating the Zhongtiaoshan camp of Cao's army and the Ferrymen, a large number of Cao's army surrendered soldiers and prisoners would be transferred to the rear.
Transfers are carried out under the city of Anyi, and then selection and assignment are carried out.
The Hussars were in high spirits. When they saw Fei Qian's banner, they raised their swords and guns from afar to shout tribute.
Fei Qian nodded with a smile, in response, but his eyes fell more on the prisoners of Cao's surrendered soldiers.
After these surrendered soldiers and prisoners took off their simple armor, what remained was even more simple and worn-out robes and thin bodies, the old, the few, and some were still like children.
Most people are very thin, with thin shoulders like a piece of paper.
These people were shaking, crowded like grass, floating in the Loess Mountains, lowering their heads, as if they would wither and die in the north wind the next moment. They would occasionally raise their heads and dare not look at them. When they came into contact with Fei Qian's gaze, they would immediately lower their heads. In that look, they were filled with fear and uneasiness, as if they would walk to the slaughterhouse next moment...
After the horn of war sounded, the unlucky people will always be the people at the bottom.
"Come!" Fei Qian signaled, "Let some Taoist priests come... follow them and recite scriptures for them..."
"Taoist?" Huang Xu didn't understand.
Fei Qian nodded, then handed Huang Xu the wooden bowl of water bags and other things, "There are only two ways to make these guys feel at ease... One is to eat a full meal. If you eat full, you will not be suspicious... The other is to find some Taoist priests...
What can make people keep their hearts either matter or spirit.
Fei Qian now has to be satisfied with the soldiers first. Even Fei Qian himself eats very simply, let alone let these prisoners eat better than the Hussar soldiers. This is not in line with the actual situation, so we can only start spiritually.
Compared to immediately preaching about how good Guanzhong is, how bad Shandong is, and criticizing the landlord class with bitter thoughts, it is better to go directly to Taoist priests. The simple and easy-to-understand Five Emperors and the diet that maintains the basic line can calm the minds of these panic-subdued prisoners, which will also be conducive to the next stage of work.
Perhaps these Cao army soldiers had seen too many troops like evil spirits and stayed in hell for too long, so even if they surrender now, they were still afraid and uneasy. Just like when they were in the community that was shot in the Sanliujiu for a long time in later generations, they would immediately lie on the ground when they heard firecrackers set off.
Most of these surrendered soldiers and prisoners of Cao's army were recruited by local princes and gentry from various places. Under the system of treating refugees in Shandong, refugees who had lost everything and had suffered from hunger were also destroying the hopes of others, spreading like a plague.
The undead people joined the army and went to kill people or were killed for two or three black cakes.
In such an environment, these people swept and swallowed like locusts. The more people, the hunger they are, the hunger they are, and the greater their damage. How long will it take for people to become wild animals when they are hungry?
Perhaps the time is shorter than everyone imagines.
People in the Han Dynasty did not understand what war syndrome was...
To make these ghosts become humans again, it took Fei Qian Pingyang a long time to kill all the guys who were only willing to take a knife and not a hoe, and it was considered to be truly stable.
So, does Feiqian still have so much time to deal with and screen these people?
Or under the current conditions, this time will be shorter and the speed of transformation will be faster?
Everything is still unknown...
If a person wants to change a place, he may not be able to leave as long as he wants.
Thousands of people and tens of thousands of people want to move to a certain place together, which is a very tedious process.
Fei Qian had to wait for the artillery rockets to move from Anyi to Zhongtiao Mountain, but before the artillery rockets arrived, the Zhongtiao Mountain camp was captured.
Although Fei Qian had received guidance from Cao's craftsmen and demolished the original Cao's army's burial sites that were set up by Cao's army, but failed to detonate. However, for the sake of safety, Fei Qian still asked someone to carefully investigate the big and small mountain roads to ensure that the large army passed without any accidents.
The military academy sent to contact him to Tongguan also reported the latest battle situation.
Under Cao Cao's direct command, Cao's army fought and retreated, and Pang Tong and others were unable to gain any big advantage.
Nowadays, if Fei Qian wants to block Cao Cao in Heluo, he must cooperate with Tongguan to quickly send troops, march into Henoi from the south side of Taihang Mountain, and then cut off Cao Cao's road to return to Shandong.
But from the south side of Taihang Mountain, we exited the pass...
Not the best strategy.
Before the Tang and Song dynasties, most Chinese dynasties were established in Chang'an and the surrounding areas of Luoyang, Henan. As a result, several major strategic areas in ancient Chinese history were formed, namely Guanzhong, Hedong, Henan and Henoi.
There is no need to mention Guanzhong, and then there is Hedong, which is where Feiqian is now.
Henan is not Yuzhou, but in Heluo, including Luoyang, which is the current location of Cao Cao's army.
Hanoi is the area north of the Great River, south of the Taihang Mountains, and east of it.
In the current situation, the focus has gradually changed from Tongguan Hedong to the battle of the "two capitals".
Chang'an, Luoyang.
Zhuguan is the channel between Hanoi and Hedong.
From Guanzhong, you can cross the river to Hedong, then cross the river from Hedong to Henoi, and then cross Mengjin from Henoi to Heluo. It can almost be said that a small river can connect the "Four Great War Areas" in ancient China.
Moreover, the name of the Eight Passes of Taihang and the Zhexing is ranked first, which is enough to prove its former status.
Such an important thing, should the siege be famous in history?
But Fei Qian thought about it and then thought, but he didn't remember any battle. It broke out in Zhengxing, and then left a brilliant mark in history...
Hangu Pass, Tongguan, Shanhai Pass, Juyong Pass, etc. have all been famous in history because of a famous battle, but Zhuguan seems to be guarding the important roads and is unknown in the mountains.
This makes Fei Qian think deeply.
He is a military strategist in Chinese history. Strategists are not as smart as keyboard warriors in later generations. Therefore, these military strategists do not know how to go, but only know how to stick to the key points of the letter?
Obviously not.
From Guanzhong to Henan and then to Shandong, it is obviously easier to walk on the important road of the Junhan.
When crossing mountains and rivers, they also push chariots and cross war horses, the closer the distance, the more obvious the strategic surprise attack, and the lower the cost of manpower and material resources. In ancient times, when transportation was not developed and the technological content was not high, the manpower and material resources saved were multiplied by the number of large troops, which was a huge number.
So now Fei Qian also chooses to follow the main road of the south side of the Great River, and the gate in the north is only used as an alternative...
...
...
War, the ongoing war, not only fights manpower, but also competes with huge resource consumption.
In the war, in order to win, all parties will invest a lot of resources, including but not limited to weapons, equipment, food, money, etc. In addition, the war will also lead to the destruction of the original infrastructure. For example, in Heluo, the original energy and vitality in recent years have been restored, but now it has been basically completely emptied and completely destroyed.
The entire Heluo production was completely shut down, and the materials needed by Cao's army were completely dependent on external adjustments.
Embarrassment is inevitable, and the most critical problem now is not only the shortage of materials and the sluggish morale of the people, but also a huge difficulty facing Cao Cao.
Hangu Pass.
On the dilapidated Guanlong earthen plateau, Cao's army set up camp here.
The flag of the Han Dynasty floated listlessly in the cold wind.
"Lord, the meal is cold..."
In the central army's tent, Cao Cao's guards whispered.
Cao Cao frowned, as if he hadn't heard it at all.
With the collapse of the Zhongtiaoshan camp of Cao's army, Cao's army completely withdrew from Hedong. For a moment, the situation of Cao's army was like a bowstring that was tense and was about to be broken. No one knew when the last straw would fall.
In Cao Cao's tent, messages were transmitted in.
Just this morning, Le Jin, who had been defeated in Hanoi in the early stage, conveyed the news that he had already brought his troops and was ready.
War is never a one-sided plan, it also depends on whether the other party can "cooperate".
Before, Cao Cao went hand in hand, but now it was Fei's turn to choose...
Divide troops and unite troops.
In the current situation, Cao Cao seemed to be cut off by the Cavalry Army at any time, but in fact it might not be so dangerous, because after retreating from Tongguan to Heluo, although the cavalry had a broader space for galloping for the Cavalry Army, as long as Hangu Pass was not broken, the Cavalry Army would still have some obstacles to moving to Shandong quickly.
Moreover, even if the Hussars broke through Hangu Pass and then sent troops to Hanoi to attack the rear line of Cao's army, the Cao's army seemed dangerous, but in fact it did not mean it was a desperate situation. Because the Hussars who were circling Hanoi would be attacked from many aspects...
Of course, if Cao's army was really cut in the Heluo area by the Cavalry Army, then it was not Cao Cao who really tested, but Shandong!
At present, Cao Cao is the only one who can compete with the cavalry. Others are not enough. Therefore, once the Shandong completely loses Cao Cao's troops, the war may come to an end, but it also means that the entire Han Dynasty will enter a new stage of Guanlong over Shandong!
In Shandong, whether it is Jizhou or Yuzhou, if you want to enjoy the best treatment of the Han Dynasty, you are basically daydreaming.
Perhaps it was also aware of this, so there was a split thinking in Jizhou and Yuzhou. Some people insisted on Cao Cao, while others began to want to take the lead in experiencing the new server, which is a normal phenomenon.
Since Cao Cao entered Guanzhong, there have been tens of thousands of people who have lost their lives, but in fact, what really lost the Cao army was the defeat of Cao Cao's relatives, senior generals, Zhongtiaoshan camp, and the loss of Zhongling Army's Zhonggu Army in order to resist the pursuit of the cavalry after retreating from Tongguan.
Although the soldiers who were drawn from various counties and counties in Shandong before the war were due to Cao Cao's wisdom and under the name of Cao's army, they were not Cao Cao's subordinates, nor were they Cao Cao's personal private soldiers. If they lost, they would lose.
Anyway, it was not originally a property that belonged to Cao Cao...
This is actually a bit like the real estate developer of Midi in later generations.
The land where the house is built is not owned by a real estate developer. The money for building a house is not owned by a real estate developer. Even whether these houses are built or not built, they are not owned by a real estate developer...
Everything is "borrowed" and it doesn't need to be paid back by real estate developers.
At worst, will it go bankrupt?
Cao Cao borrowed manpower and material resources. If this magnificent building could be built, then Cao Cao would naturally make a fortune, but if it ended up being unfinished...
I haven’t seen any real estate developer from Midi apologize by cutting his penis downstairs without a break?!
These Midi real estate developers are already very good at Smith and Marseille. They are more of a sign that they love to be terrible and love to be terrible, and more of the police who protect the interests of taxpayers will come as soon as possible to maintain the safety of real estate developers and their personal privacy is not violated.
"Where is there any abnormal movement in Yan Township?"
Cao Cao didn't raise his head and was still watching on the map.
The subordinates reported that "Report to the lord, there is nothing unusual about the Cavalry Army in Yan Township! It seems that they are resting!"
Cao Cao frowned, "Stop?"
"Yes! The Hussar soldiers all put their horses on the earthen plateau..." said the scout under Cao Cao.
『On the grassy earthen plateau?』 Cao Cao was stunned and raised his head, 『Are you sure?』
The scouts under him swear to the sky, saying that they had seen it with their own eyes.
Cao Cao nodded, waved his hand, and signaled to the scout to go down.
The scouts will not lie on such matters.
"Lord! This is a bullying of our army, no one!" Cao Hong came from outside the tent with anger on his face.
"Zi Lian, are you injured better?" When Cao Cao saw Cao Hong coming, he hurriedly asked someone to bring a horse to Cao Hong and sit down.
Cao Hong wanted to pat his chest to show his bravery, but it touched the wound and couldn't help but grin, and his heroic words turned into coughs...
"Get some hot soup!"
Cao Cao ordered.
Cao Hong turned around and saw the food that Cao Cao had not moved on the table. "Lord! Come on, take the food together and warm it up!"
Cao Cao's mind was still on the map. After frowning and thinking for a while, "Zi Lian, this is a strategy to lure the enemy."
"Teel the enemy?" Cao Hong said, "I think I am a proud army!"
While the two of them were talking, a military academy suddenly came to report, "Report! From Yan Township, we sent a lot of remnants of our army!"
Cao Cao frowned, "This is another set of things... send the wounded soldiers to the back camp!"
The military academy did not immediately receive the order, but lowered his head and said, "Report to the Prime Minister, not all the wounded soldiers..."
"What does this mean?" Cao Cao was stunned for a moment, then stood up and walked out of the tent.
In the distance, from the direction of Yan Township, Tongguan, a group of figures are slowly coming.
Which team of figures were running around the Cao army scouts?
Although it was far apart and it was impossible to see clearly what his appearance was, from the armor he wore and the broken Cao battle flag he held in his hand, it was basically confirmed that he was the defeated remnants of the Cao family before.
In this queue, you can also see some people who are unable to move, obviously injured, but some people walk normally, unlike being injured.
If it makes the injured person come with those who are not injured, it makes sense, but overall, there are few people who are injured, but there are more people who are not injured, which is a bit strange.
The Cavalry Army had done the task of sending the wounded soldiers back before, and Cao Cao usually dealt with them in a cold manner.
After no one pays attention, deal with it.
After all, those are all injured. Isn’t it normal for the wound to be ignored in such an environment as the Han Dynasty?
But now not only are there injuries, but many are not injured...
This is a little problem.
"Will the spy come in?" Cao Hong also followed outside the tent and looked out from a distance, "Fei Zhe likes to play this cheap trick the most!"
"The soldiers never get tired of deceit." Cao Cao replied.
Since the beginning of the Warring States Period, there has been no morality in war.
It is already very good for the Cavalry Army to bandage these wounded soldiers. If you want to get better treatment, it is impossible. Moreover, it is normal for war to be fooled by war, so there is nothing to blame the Cavalry for using any means, but the focus is on how to deal with it.
Obviously, we have to deal with these uninjured ones together, which is a bit...
The key is that these disabled and defeated soldiers who came back are no longer ordinary soldiers from counties and counties that don’t care. Many of them are the Central Leading Army Central Guards, which are the core forces of the Cao army at the moment. If it is a simple cold treatment, I’m afraid that by then...
"Are you sure you came from Yanxiang?"
Cao Cao asked again.
"You reported to the Prime Minister, that's exactly what... how should you settle these...?" the military academy asked.
Cao Cao thought for a moment, "Don't set up a village in the back camp... Ask one by one, why did you let these people come back?"
The military academy under his command took the order.
Cao Hong said: "These guys! They're simply hateful!"
Cao Cao thought for a while, but smiled and said, "It's just right! Just right! Pang Shiyuan thought he was planning, but he didn't know that since this, he has exposed the reality and reality!"
Cao Hong was stunned, "Lord, you are..."
"I laughed at Pang Shiyuan, I'm too calculating!"
