From Meiji to Qiuci, that is, Yulin, the Baitu and Pingping corridor areas in the middle are the key nodes that connect the north and the south.
The Qin Dynasty's straight road also led directly to the foot of Yinshan Mountain from here.
A large area to the west of Baitu is a desert area, with yellow sand everywhere and no water source for two to three hundred miles. Although it is not large, it is easy to get lost when marching in the desert with no coordinates. Once you go in the wrong direction, you will be boundless. The feeling will soon drive everyone crazy, and eventually the water source will be cut off and they will die of thirst in the yellow sand.
To the east of the Baitu and Heping passages is the old Qin-Zhao Great Wall. Since it is the Great Wall, it was naturally built based on the mountains. Although there are several rivers passing through the mountains and forming some valleys, it is strange. The rocky terrain is not a good marching road...
Outside the old city of Pingding, Zha Tiansheng, Alanyi and Linyinqin led a coalition of tribesmen to camp here. Since this was the main marching route, Zha Tiansheng Yufu Luo and Ma Yue sent troops. After that, I received the news very quickly.
Zha Tiansheng brought 5,000 people, Alanyi and Linyinqin each had 3,000 people, and the total number of horses was more than 10,000. Thousands of people and horses gathered together, and the overwhelming tents were connected to the sky. Together, the three tribesmen knew each other in many things, so some got together, and some worked skillfully and in tacit cooperation to organize the cattle and sheep pens and build simple fences, just like they had been doing for thousands of years. as the migration did.
For war and death, these barbarians basically don't care much. In other words, these barbarians are a type of troops that will not lose morale during long-distance marches. For them, they constantly migrate and then fight with the people of heaven and earth. Living or dying in the battle is a normal thing, and it is not worth being nervous about.
On the contrary, in the wars between the Han people, we often saw the so-called embattled people on all sides, using hometown affection as a killing weapon. However, for the Hu people who are at home all over the world, the effectiveness of this method may be greatly reduced.
But this does not mean that Hu people can die worthlessly...
A tribesman saw Zha Tian Sheng's figure on the hillock, took off his felt hat from a distance, then knelt down on one knee and performed a chest caressing ceremony. Then he saw Zha Tian Sheng wave his hand, then stood up and continued. He was busy with his own affairs.
Zha Tiansheng looked at the tribesmen following him, who were laughing and humming songs, and waved his riding whip, feeling a little hesitant.
Humphrey had already arrived. This was something they expected, but what they didn't expect was that so many people came from Humphrey!
The original plan of Zha Tiansheng and the others was to form a three-sided encirclement in the Pingding area when Yu Fuluo passed through this naturally narrow and long area from Baitu to Pingding, and carry out a devastating attack on Fuluo or the vanguard of the Han people. The blow...
But isn’t this vanguard force too large now?
Can this still be considered a so-called pioneer?
He is simply the main force, okay?
In ancient wars, soldiers of the same type fought against each other, and the casualties were the most tragic. Zha Tian Sheng naturally understood this truth, so he had to use the ten thousand cavalry that were now pacified to fight against Yu Fuluo's ten thousand cavalry. Although the number was not the same, No loss, but even if you win, you will probably suffer heavy losses.
In this way, when too many of his strong and young tribesmen are killed or injured, his tribe will face many problems in the next step. These problems have also occurred in the tribes that have been annexed by him...
what to do?
Attack from both sides, but the area from Baitu to Pingding is restricted by the terrain, with desert on one side and mountains on the other, so it is impossible to effectively bypass the rear and attack on the flank.
Alas, it would have been nice if Hufrault had brought fewer people with him this time.
Zha Tiansheng shook his head and sighed.
If Huvroud does not have many men and horses, the coverage will not be very spread out, and then there will be some gaps on the two sides of the army. Now that the thousands of cavalry and horses are spread out, unless you risk your life and enter the desert, you will not be able to defeat both sides. It is too difficult to avoid being detected by Huvroud's scouts and to arrive at the battlefield at the right time...
If Yuvluo were allowed to pass through this area, and then fight in a relatively wide area like Pingding, even though the scene would be big enough if ten thousand cavalry faced off against ten thousand cavalry, the damage to the tribesmen would also be very great.
The key is that the Meiji Royal Court is not unanimous in its opinions!
If their tribe declines because of this battle, which side will the old foxes who stayed in Meiji support?
Zha Tiansheng sat on the hillside, rubbing the sprouting green grass seedlings with his feet, and was in a dilemma.
Alanyi and Linyinqin found Zatian Sheng and sat down too.
The two of them also felt very embarrassed about the current situation. They originally planned to fight a wolf or a rabbit in order to shock Yu Fuluo and the people in Meiji Royal Court, but they did not expect that now A large pack of wolves came...
Still fighting or not?
Alanyi hesitated for a long time, and then said: "How about we fight here?" Twenty thousand people were crowded into the narrow area from Baitu to Pingding. It was basically a war of attrition. For both sides, this way of fighting Both are the worst choices.
Zha Tiansheng shook his head and said that although this is the exit of this narrow strip, it is not the kind of terrain where valley roads or dangerous passes can block the exit. It is only a slight disadvantage for Hufro, but It doesn't mean that we can't deploy the troops. At worst, we can cut the edge of the desert and go around a little to get out.
Therefore, in the decisive battle, it was just expanded from a narrow area to a larger engagement area. In fact, there was not much difference.
Lin Yinqin said: "What should we do? We can't just go back like this, right?"
Zha Tian Sheng also shook his head and said: "We absolutely cannot go back like this..."
After a pause, Zada Sheng said decisively: "Let's divide our troops!"
"Split the troops?"
"Yes!" Zha Tiansheng said, "You two are holding Yu Fuluo here while I lead the people to go around the Tuwei River Valley and attack the Han camp in Qiuci... Even if we can't capture the camp, we will be destroyed. If the retreat of Yuvluo and others is blocked, the Han people will definitely order the Han cavalry to return for reinforcements... At that time, if Yuvluo follows him and retreats, then we will return to the army to Meiji to deal with those old foxes. If we do not retreat, It would be better to lead the attack by myself, and wait until I come back from the river valley..."
Zada Sheng laughed ferociously, and then made a stranglehold with his hands.
The number of previous chapters was wrong, and the author was so busy that he didn't notice it... The content was still the same, there was no difference... But the author did not have permission to change the chapter name... He did not even have permission to change the chapter content that had been published for a longer time. To change... I need to find an editor...
