Unlike the Han scouts, the Hu scouts can even be sent as far as a hundred miles, and even as far as three or four hundred miles!
Such a gap is of course caused by different living conditions and habits.
The Han people mainly focus on farming, and farmland is attached to the periphery of the city. Generally speaking, the radius is no more than a hundred miles, so the investigation range of forty or fifty miles is basically the outermost circle of an ordinary city, no matter how far it is,
It doesn't make much sense.
Moreover, the Han people habitually need to return to their "home" and have a strong sense of belonging to their home. Even if this "home" is a temporary camp, a tent that may be dismantled the next day, when night comes, they can stay like this
Resting in a temporary "home" is a simple happiness for the Han people.
However, for the Hu people, it is different.
The reason why the Hu people's scouting distance is particularly long is not because the Hu people are physically stronger or have higher abilities or anything like that, it's just because the Hu people are used to it.
On the vast expanse of prairie, a distance of only forty or fifty miles can be reached by a war horse in half a day's gallop. Therefore, a detection distance of forty or fifty miles is basically of little use to the barbarians.
, Therefore, if you want to detect the movement of the war horse group in the distance, you are forced to place the scouts farther and farther away...
Another reason is that the Hu people and their horses are used to wandering. Even if there is no tent, they can spend the night safely by finding a leeward place to cuddle up against each other. What's more, the Hu people don't even need to carry more food, grass and water bags. If they are thirsty,
You can also drink mare's milk, or even directly drink the blood of small wild animals that you hunt to replenish water. It is commonplace for the Hu people.
Therefore, when the Xianbei army in Yinshan was still more than 300 miles away from Zhenlin, the Hu scouts had already extended their tentacles to the vicinity of the Han camp.
"General Qi, the Han people have increased their troops today, there are still more than a thousand people, all infantry..." Xianbei scout reported.
General Zuo of Xianbei, Lonely Yu Huan couldn't help but frowned when he heard this, but said nothing and waved his hand to let the scouts go down first.
The Han people increased their troops.
The Han people increased their troops again.
Although they are infantry, they don't have to worry about the Han people suddenly appearing in front of them, but it makes their attack more difficult.
In such a vast area as Bingzhou and even Mobei, infantry can only be used for defense. If you want to attack, you can't even think about it without cavalry.
Not to mention anything else, just the consumption of food and fodder for the soldiers and horses on the road can make the slow infantry commander collapse.
Even if the two sides can fight, the cavalry can fight when they want and leave when they want, while the infantry will always be dragged along by the cavalry, and will slowly be dragged down and defeated...
So Lonely Yu Huan was worried when he heard that the Han people had increased their infantry, but he was not too worried. In other words, given the current situation, he hoped that the Han people would take the initiative to attack instead of being stuck in Zhenlin.
place.
War, especially large-scale war, is never unprovoked. It is either because of threats or because of interests. This is true regardless of whether it is ancient or modern, Chinese or foreign.
War is not just a war in modern times. Even in the Han Dynasty, the collection and analysis of information still determined the direction of a battle.
This time Xianbei Left General Lonely Yu Huan received an order from Xianbei King Bu Dugen to assemble troops near Yinshan Mountain and set out from the southern foot of Yinshan Mountain to conquer all the way south. In fact, speaking of Lonely Yu Huan, facing the current battle,
There are both threats and benefits.
Loneliness is a foreign noble from Xianbei. He was originally a Han, and speaking of the blood of the emperor, Liu Jinbo, a descendant of Liu Fu, the son of Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu, was the general of Rendu Liao at that time. Later, he failed in the attack on the Xiongnu and was captured and imprisoned in Dudu.
At the foot of the mountain, he lived among the Xiongnu. Later, his descendants took the surname Dugu, and some even served as King Guli of the Xiongnu.
There is no trace of Han Chinese in Lonely Yu Huan now. Whether it is the hair accessories on her head or the clothes on her body, she is completely Xianbei. Her living habits and so on are no different from Xianbei. She is completely Xianbei.
Xianbei people.
After all, the Guli tribe served as King Guli of the Xiongnu. After switching to Xianbei, although it received a certain courtesy, the Guoli tribe could not gain much trust from the Xianbei king. It was able to compete for the position of a relatively plump Yinshan Zuo general.
That's pretty good. The rest of the Lonely Tribe members are still deep in Mobei.
Compared with the depths of the desert, Yinshan Mountain is very pleasant in terms of climate and freedom.
Here, Lonely Yu Huan is the one-size-fits-all General Zuo, but in a place where Xianbei tribes gather in the desert, a small General Zuo is nothing. There are adults and Xiao Wang above him...
Therefore, Yinshan Mountain is naturally the focus of many eyes.
When Zuo Danghu was defeated and returned, Lonely Yu Huan was angry, but also felt the threat not only from the Han people, but also from all directions, even behind him...
Over the years, probably more than ten years, it has become a habit of Xianbei people to go south to find Han people to get some when they have nothing. Naturally, it is also a habit of being lonely. But suddenly, I hit my head and was bleeding, and I was in pain.
At the same time, one must also be wary of comments from people behind him: Has General Zuo's head become soft and useless, and cannot even defeat the always weak Han people?
To protect your own interests from losses, you must prove yourself.
King Xianbei's order to be sent quickly gave Lonely Yu Huan a chance, but unexpectedly after gathering the troops, they found that the Han people had already set up camp here in Zhenlin.
When he discovered the Han camp, the idea of attacking flashed through Lonely Yu Huan's mind. However, Zuo Danghu's failure made him feel that he should be more cautious, so he sent many scouts to conduct investigations. The result was unexpected.
It was this investigation and the results of the feedback that made me hesitate even more...
The Han people are actually constantly increasing their troops!
Although the number of troops increased each day is not much, but after such a day, it is already the fifth day or the sixth day. Lonely Yu Huan is not sure, but he knows that at least in these consecutive days, the scouts will conduct reconnaissance.
Among them, there were indeed about a thousand infantry coming from the south every day to join Zhenlin's camp.
If this continues, it will become increasingly difficult to fight...
Lonely Yu Huan was under the jurisdiction of Zuo Danghu, while Zuo Danghu led his troops southward and returned in defeat. He was punished and was trampled to death by a horse. The remaining tribesmen under his jurisdiction were incorporated into his own tribe by Lonely Yuhuan, so now
Under the big tent, there was only one general left, Youda Danghuqiu Muling Chachaer.
"Come here, call Chachaer to discuss the matter!" Lonely Yu Huan shouted to the guards outside the tent.
