To be on the safe side, Dadaanghu sent a thousand cavalry to attack the abandoned dock guarded by only 300 people.
The result was not beyond the expectations of the Dang household. This batch of goods, which were said to be transferred from Pingding County, was finally obtained.
Cloths, tea bricks, well salt and other sundries were piled all over the cart, making everyone happy to see it.
Although only eighteen baggage trucks were recovered, the other two were burned down.
As soon as the soldiers guarding Wubao saw Xianbei's figure, they ran away. Although they could still give chase, these damn Han dogs actually set the baggage cart on fire, scaring the Xianbei cavalry into swarming around and beating them.
Two vehicles were burned, but fortunately other vehicles were not affected.
However, the time for pursuit was missed because of this, and few Han dogs were not killed.
Da Danghu didn't care about this problem at all. He was more concerned about the goods! They were goods that were lacking on the grassland!
The big householder took out a piece of Chazhuan's baggage cart, then broke off a handful and put it in his mouth. He chewed it and nodded with satisfaction. He immediately ordered people to pull these valuable baggage carts to the big city outside the city.
In the camp, they announced on the spot that these supplies were all shared and would be distributed uniformly after the war was over.
Da Danghu did this. Although he still said that he wanted to divide it, he did not count the quantity. Who knows how much he got in the end. Therefore, Jie Ge Bai Chang was inevitably a little unwilling. Just as he rolled his eyes and was about to say something,
Suddenly a Xianbei scout rushed over and said that a Han cavalry of more than a thousand people was coming from the south and was about to reach forty miles!
Da Danghu glanced at the baggage carts that were being pulled away, and thought, these Han cavalry were coming to pick up these baggage carts, right? Fortunately, he acted quickly, otherwise he would have eaten these thousand Han cavalry.
, we must also lose some manpower, how can it be as easy as now?
× × × × × × × × ×
There are only various exposed stones in the Gobi Desert in Mobei, and the soil has been continuously transported and settled by tens of millions of years of wind, accumulating into such a strange piece of land now. The continuous erosion and cutting of rainwater has also transformed it into a unique piece of land.
They became large and small ravines on the loess land.
Ma Yan led a group of cavalry to run wildly along the folded valleys on the Loess Plateau, stirring up yellow dust all over the sky. Following closely behind Ma Yan were about three thousand Xianbei cavalry.
Mayan raised his head and looked at the mountains in the distance.
Well, with a green flag, the distance is still safe.
"Send the order, slow down the horse!" Ma Yan ordered. After all, the horse cannot run at high speed for a long time, which will quickly consume the horse's endurance. After running for a while, slow down a little and rest, so that the horse's blood can cool down.
This way you can last longer.
The Han cavalry led by Ma Yan were heavily armored. During long-distance running, the consumption of horses was naturally greater than that of the Xianbei people who were lightly armored or even unarmored. However, the problem was that the Xianbei people were not very familiar with the paths and environment in this area.
, so I didn’t dare to catch up at full speed, so I was still a little farther away.
After chasing for more than ten miles, the more than 3,000 Xianbei cavalry slowly stopped when they saw that they could not pursue anyone. Several leading Xianbei Qianchang gathered together to discuss and decided to continue the pursuit like this.
Feeling somewhat unsure, I turned around and prepared to go back.
On several mountaintops in the distance, I saw the yellow dust stirred up by the Xianbei cavalry behind Ma Yan walking back, and they all erected blue flags in unison.
Seeing this, Ma Yan ordered the whole army to go around the valley, and followed the Xianbei people at a close distance, neither approaching to fight nor keeping a distance.
When the Xianbei cavalry saw this, they were furious and turned to chase again. Ma Yan immediately turned around and ran away with his troops...
After coming down again and again, the Xianbei cavalry began to set up ambushes, preparing to kill the reckless Mayan troops.
However, such a move could not be hidden in the eyes of the soldiers on the distant mountaintops, and they all raised red flags. The special terrain of the Loess Plateau, if the large group of people moved even slightly, the sky would be filled with yellow dust, and there would be extremely many wrinkles between them.
, resulting in that some places can be passed directly, while other places are 100-meter-deep trenches. The distance is obviously close, but you have to take a detour.
Ma Yan received warnings from a distance, and relied on the Bingzhou people in the team to be familiar with the terrain. Several times the Xianbei people tried to divide their troops to encircle them, but were blocked by deep ditches. Then it was worth watching Ma Yan fly away right under their noses...
…
Just as Ma Yan was going around with three thousand Xianbei cavalry in the southeast, he received another scout report at Dadanghu in Pingding, and another thousand Han cavalry came from the east!
The big family is now extremely embarrassed. It is not right to divide the troops, and it is even worse not to divide the troops.
Hanqi is not a soft dough, you can knead it however you want.
Da Danghu really didn't take the infantry of the Han army seriously. Anyway, the two short legs of the Han dog were useless after sneaking around for a few times. Once they charged into the formation, they basically won, but they had to defeat a dog head-on.
Qian Hanqi is completely different.
The equipment of the Han cavalry is strong, and the armor and swords are very hard. If you want to fight against a thousand Han cavalry, you must send at least 3,000 people. But in this way, you only have about 4,000 cavalry left.
In my hands, if Han troops appear somewhere again, what will I do?
But if the troops are not divided and the thousand cavalry from the east are allowed to join the Han cavalry from the south, then the three thousand troops originally sent out will definitely be in danger...
After thinking about it, Danghu decided to first send 3,000 cavalry to intercept the Han cavalry coming from the east, with 2,000 men stationed there, and then he took 2,000 men to join them in the south. After first dealing with the Han cavalry from the south,
Then turn around and meet the incoming troops from the east.
Although the idea was good, by the time Da Dang Hu led his soldiers to join the cavalry from the south, Ma Yan had already run away with his men.
After receiving a report from his cavalry officer Qian Chang, Dangdanghu was also very isolated. He was beating without fighting, running without running, just walking around, not to mention ordinary Xianbei people, even
Da Dang households who have experienced many battles have almost never encountered...
What do these Han people want to do?
Da Danghu, who was confused by Ma Yan's move, couldn't help but become a little suspicious. Although he knew that the Han cavalry had been running for most of the day, their horsepower must be exhausted, and the people and horses he brought now were new forces.
If we can catch up, we will at least gain something, but...
Seeing that the sky was getting dark and there was still an army to the east that had not yet been dealt with, Da Danghu thought about it again and again and finally gave up on this somewhat tempting idea and turned around with his troops to the east.
As a result, Dadanghu hadn't gone very far east when he saw a cloud of yellow dust rising in front of him and ran into the defeated Xianbei cavalry who had been scattered...
Huns, Xianbei, Dingling, Turks...
In fact, they are all amalgamation of different tribes produced on the same land...
Therefore, these can also be called Mongolian ethnic minorities...
Of course there are other categories as well...
Just like Dongyi, Wuhuan, and even the Jurchens in the later period...
