By the time Zhang Ren arrived, all the senior officials from Sichuan and Shu in the Indochina Peninsula had basically arrived. Except for the brainless Barbarian King Wu Tugu, who hardly participated in any meetings and only ate, and two other guys who were too far away, the others
Everyone has come.
"Guishang has sent troops?" Zhang Ren opened the door curtain with one hand and strode in. Looking at the Sichuan and Shu high-level officials who were already in the tent, he spoke almost reflexively.
"Hurry up and close it. Close it. As soon as you push the tent door, we will feel a wave of heat. Boren, it will rain for another half an hour tonight." Li Hui sat close to the tent door and was blown away by the hot wind.
Sao said to Fei Boren with some collapse.
"Okay, I will remember that it will rain for an extra hour to cool down the temperature at night." Fei Boren nodded, saying that there was no problem, so many civil servants took turns to change the weather.
There is no such thing as spring or winter in Indochina. It is summer all year round, and it seems to be no big deal except that the weather is very hot.
After all, a large group of civil servants found that the temperature in this place was sometimes extremely high. After they couldn't bear it, they began to rain every night and the sun came out during the day. It was really hot. With this group of people playing with the weather, how could it be so hot?
degree.
"General Zhang, have you received the news?" Zhang Su looked at Li Hui and then turned to Zhang Ren and said, this news has just been sent from Yizhou, why did Zhang Ren know about it? He shouldn't have.
"If anything happens in Guishuang, I'll be waiting here. Now that I see you all here, all I can think of is this one thing." Zhang Ren sat down in the main seat with a golden sword, refreshingly.
He opened his mouth and said that he had been waiting for a long time.
"That's it." Huang Quan nodded and said, "Although the sources are different, the result is the same. Guishang is ready to take action. You are all senior leaders of our Han army. I will not hide it from you. Guishan will raise troops on the 15th.
Ten thousand to 180,000 are ready to attack the Han Dynasty."
"There are two elite dual-talented legions, a powerful elite comparable to the soul of the army, and more than 70,000 regular soldiers." Zhang Su continued to explain after Huang Quan's words. Everyone present was trustworthy, so what?
Just say it.
"Last time, I didn't try my best. This time, I must let the Yuezhi see the bravery of my Han family." Meng Huo said excitedly, carrying a big sword, "I am willing to be the vanguard in this battle."
Meng Huo was not a Southern Barbarian who was too close to the Han at first, but after all, he had a better relationship with the Zhu Rong clan of the Southern Barbarians. The old cave master of the Zhu Rong clan was more friendly to the Han people. In addition, Zhang Su and his group did not mess around. Meng Huo
So he ran away with him.
Later, he followed Yan Yan and Zhang Ren and carried guns together and participated in great battles. In addition, Zhang Su felt that he wanted to set a model. Meng Huo had strength, could command troops, and was still popular among the southern barbarians, so he made Meng Huo a model.
, promoted all the way, and now Meng Huo himself recognized his identity as a Han general.
So when he heard about the Kushan invasion, Meng Huo immediately expressed his willingness to fight for the country. Barbarian, no, no, no, we are brothers of the same culture and race. General of the Han Dynasty, do you understand?
"Last time, when we first came to Central and South China, we had difficulty marching the war elephants and were left in the northern jungle and failed to bring them. Now after a year of purges, I have brought all the two thousand war elephants from my hometown in Jianning, and I can form a team.
War Elephant Legion." Seeing Meng Huo jump out, King Mulu also stood up to give his assurance.
Meng Huo was the barbarian king recognized by them. Although everyone was now a Han general, people like King Mulu still respected Meng Huo. Since Meng Huo had spoken, other cave owners would naturally express their gratitude, like King Mulu.
This kind of relatively reliable cave master has even taken advantage of the old man.
Naturally, when Meng Huo opened his mouth, all the cave masters of the Southern Barbarians were excited, saying that the Kushan dared to attack the Han Empire, and we must teach them how to behave.
But having said that, the southern barbarians can really be regarded as the headquarters that can be defeated, namely Meng Huo, Wu Tu Gu and Mulu's elephant soldiers. The others relied on the experience accumulated over so long and managed to break away from the miscellaneous soldiers. They can be regarded as
I'm a veteran, after all, the Nanman discipline is also a trap.
What's worse is that being grouped together with the Han army will also affect the discipline and organization of the Han army, which is simply a sinkhole. However, fortunately, the Nanman people's fighting will and morale are quite good. In addition, the major cave masters have the courage to charge into the battle, and their momentum is also very good.
It's good, but it's a mess.
Of course, this is a current problem. Not long after, when Zhou Yu sent Liu Zhang a copy of the Slavic epic ballads obtained by the Yuan family, several Qin Mi and Xu Jing, a celebrity scholar who was close to the ultimate level of vocal music, were forced by the war situation.
As well as pressure from Liu Zhang, who forced verification and cracking on the battlefield, the Nanman veterans with poor discipline finally came to the fore.
"Before, our army was not very adapted to the climate here, and we were sure to win every battle. Now, why should we fear it, not to mention the morale of the army!" Zhang Ren replied sonorously and forcefully after hearing what the generals said.
After all, the Kushan people had agreed to give them half of the land of the Baicheng Dynasty if they lost. Even though it was an enclave that the Han Dynasty could not occupy, the Kushans directly acted shamelessly afterwards and refused to give anything to them, which indeed made Zhang
Ren was filled with anger.
Zhang Su, Wang Lei, Huang Quan, Li Hui and others looked at each other and nodded silently. Although the army was a little arrogant now, the military morale was indeed as Zhang Ren said.
What's more, the so-called arrogance, as long as you win the battle, is a strategic contempt for the enemy's self-confidence.
Besides, there are civil servants like them. Isn’t the purpose of their existence to keep the military commanders from getting involved? Zhang Ren is relatively cautious and rigorous in running the army. He is the kind of outstanding general who has good ideas and is not the kind who listens.
A commander who is silent.
The current state of arrogance and madness is considered a pretty good situation in the eyes of Zhang Su, Huang Quan and others. It not only ensures high morale, but also does not get overwhelmed. It is a very good state.
"Ahem, Kushan hasn't come yet. Generals, please maintain your current status." Wang Lei coughed twice, diverted everyone's attention, and then said with a smile.
"I came to report from the training eagle before. Guishang planned to question the Han Dynasty's seizure of the Kushan envoy on the grounds of the previous incident of Princess Shang." Seeing that the general's attention was focused again, Zhang Su took over the conversation and discussed the topic in the camp.
Turned back again.
"Hey, you are so brave. You actually use the princess as an excuse. I really don't want to live anymore." Meng Da, who was cleaning his knife, said with a sneer, "Don't you know that the Han Dynasty has an eldest princess now?"
"Not to mention this matter, this is just a pretext. According to the analysis of several of us, Kushan's current purpose is just to use this as a pretext to divert domestic conflicts. We have underestimated what happened in Kushan before."
Fei Boren sighed and said.
After the previous secret letter was sent, several people present had an urgent discussion and finally came to almost the same conclusion. The Kushan side was preparing to use the Han Dynasty as a target to divert domestic conflicts.
Speaking of which, Fei Boren had a lot of things to do last year. He moved north, sent Fei Yi to Pang Degong, and then went back to Indochina. After struggling for more than half a year, he almost died on the road, but now he has finally recovered. .
However, considering that his aunt was Liu Zhang's biological mother, Fei Boren decided to stay under Liu Zhang's command and help Liu Zhang.
After all, you are not a gangster wherever you are. The situation on Liu Zhang's side is not bad. The internal interpersonal relationships are relatively simple. In addition, there is not much trouble in this life. There is no dispute between Dongzhou and Sichuan and Shu factions. The lord who doesn't care about anything above him is himself. My cousin is doing pretty well here.
So after Fei Boren moved the Fei family to the northeast, he went to Central and South China to serve as his adviser in Shuzhong. By the way, after studying the situation under Liu Zhang for so long, Fei Boren decided to follow the Sun Qian route, that is, to work hard on infrastructure construction, Sichuan and Shu. I really need such a person.
"What big deal is a confrontation of only 70,000 to 80,000 people?" Zhang Ren said with a sneer, "Maybe there are less than 200,000 regular soldiers in Kushan."
As soon as these words came out, all the military officers in the camp laughed. The empire with 200,000 soldiers was at the same level as we had defeated it head-on. We looked back and thought about it, and chopped off the opponent's head.
"Based on the intelligence we have seen now, the Kushan army that faced off on both sides of the Indus River was probably equivalent to the Central Army of the Three Rivers and Five Schools of the Han Dynasty. Only in this way can we explain the current situation." Wang Lei was quite a bit confused. He sighed tiredly and said.
Zhang Ren's face darkened when he heard this, and the others stopped laughing wildly. If Sanhe and Five Schools were to fight next to Chang'an, then it would not be an exaggeration to say that the domestic situation is a mess.
Even though there were less than 50,000 people in the Three Rivers and Five Schools of the Han Empire, if this really happened near Chang'an, the whole country would probably be unrest.
"But this is all in the past, so don't worry too much." Huang Quan said calmly, "After all, it was impossible for us to send troops to educate Kushan."
"What's more, looking at the current situation, although Kuishang is full of internal conflicts, it will not collapse directly. If we had taken action at that time, I am afraid there would have been reverse effects." Zhang Su waved his hand, saying that he did not need to care about these past things.
"Now we have an advantage and have learned in advance that the other party is going to send troops. With the opponent's speed, even with the advantage of water transportation, it will probably take more than a month for the army to reach the border." Zhang Su pointed at the map and said, " In this case, we can make a lot of arrangements in advance, and together, we should give the other party a chance to plot against us."
"Now it's time for us to go get the fertile land of the Hundred-Cheng Dynasty. This is the trophy that the Yueshi lost to us last year. Now it's time for us to take back this trophy." Li Hui looked at him with a certain coldness. He glanced at the others and said.
"That's what I mean, first stop their rhetoric, and then create an opportunity for them to easily defeat us. They will definitely not miss this opportunity." Huang Quan also had a faint coldness in his eyes.
The Han Dynasty gives you face, but you don’t want it, and you still want to slap it in the face. I think you don’t want to live anymore. This wave will be sent directly to you to heaven, so that you can feel what it means to calculate mentally but not intentionally!
