Chapter 516: All the armies advance in unison to force Rouran
Rouran Wangzhang, Tuyuhun.
Along the Blackwater River, tents are like clouds, stretching westward for several miles along the Blackwater River bank.
The dotted tents are tightly clustered around a small group of tents in the middle. Among this small group of tents, the top of the big tent in the middle is covered with a golden curtain. Under the sunlight, the surrounding white snow is reflected.
Added a layer of gold.
"Everyone, get out of here"
Hebeli's roaring voice almost broke through the sky.
Several Rouran generals in leather robes came out of the king's tent in a panic, and followed him away.
The fire dragon in the big tent was burning brightly. Even though it was winter, it was still warm inside. The female slaves and attendants knelt on the floor.
Heberli's heavy breathing filled the entire royal tent, like a volcano that was about to erupt, and he didn't know when it would erupt.
"Your Majesty, why did you drive away those tribal leaders? Although their tribe is not big, for us now, any force needs to win over them."
He Baili's younger brother Helian Bobo came in from outside, wearing light armor and a bunch of braids on his head, and asked his brother with a strange expression.
Hebeli's face was ashen: "They think that I have angered the Han people. Now that the four kings of Thule have been wiped out by the Han army, the barbarians in the south are also ready to move and want me to abdicate in order to avoid catastrophe for our clan."
Helianbobo's face darkened: "No, they dare to say such things. They really don't know how they died. Brother, why don't you kill them and show them to those who secretly covet you."
Hebeli slumped down and sat down on the throne: "How to kill them? Two are your uncles and one is our uncle. They are all related by relatives. If I touch them today, there will not be three sheep drinking water."
In time, my mother will come to me to question me."
Helian Bobo heard this and said, "Brother, you must kill us if you need to. The foreign tribes are in serious trouble today, and all the Tule grassland we have gained has been lost. If we show weakness to these slaves again, they will go to heaven."
Hebali waved his hand: "This matter is over, Bobo, why did you come to see me?"
Helian Bobo wanted to say more, but seeing that He Baili looked tired, he had no choice but to endure what he said next.
"Some barbarians came and told us to surrender to Su Lu, otherwise they would raise an army to attack our tribe. I chopped off the barbarian's head and sent people to throw it back to the barbarians."
“Well done”
He Baili slapped the handrail with his palm: "Look at me showing weakness, cats and dogs will jump out to bully us. If it were a unified barbarian tribe, I would still be afraid of him attacking me. Now the barbarian tribe is in civil strife, and the old and young patriarchs are fighting for power. What can I use to attack?
My clan.”
"Bobo, you have to control the clan members in your hands. They are the most elite troops of our clan and there is no room for failure."
Helianbobo nodded: "Brother, don't worry. If you dare to covet people from these tribes in my hands, I will kill one of them."
"The Black Fish King's troops must not allow any mistakes."
The two brothers sat across from each other and talked about clan affairs for a while. Just as Helian Bobo was about to leave, a Blackfish King soldier rushed into the tent.
"Your Majesty, the latest military report is that all three Han armies have gathered at the Fourth Prince Banner. The troops are in good order and will invade our Rouran in the near future."
He Baili's face darkened, and he finally arrived. This Su Lu actually had a way to use the army in this freezing and snowy season. What a fucking pervert.
Helianbobo scolded the king's soldiers: "Get up and answer the question. The Han army destroyed the four royal courts of Thule. How many troops were used and what were the casualties?"
Wang Zhangbing looked ugly: "According to the spies, Su Lu has 89,000 troops, and will be supplemented by 10,000 new troops, making the army about 100,000."
"In the annihilation of the four royal courts of Thule, except for the left army, which suffered more than 500 casualties, the other two armies suffered very little losses, totaling less than 100."
"Less than a hundred!"
Helianbobo jumped up from his chair, his face full of shock.
"During the ice and snow, he used troops against the Four Kings of Thule, and the total number of casualties did not exceed 600. This is impossible!"
"It's freezing cold, and there are snow caves everywhere in the snowfield. This alone can cost him hundreds of people. It's impossible."
He Baili waved his hand and signaled the king's troops to go out: "Send out all the scouting horses. We must find out clearly how much the Han army has suffered. Send an order to the six troops in Luohe to stop the Han army."
The king's soldiers came out of the tent, and Helian Bobo asked He Baili.
"The loss is only six hundred. What is the use of these scouting horses? They can't even count their number. They are all useless."
"Brother, you have fought against Su Lu. Is the Han army really that strong?"
He Baili's face became even darker: "Of course the ordinary Han army is not that strong. They are much worse than our Rouran warriors. I can't capture Tianlan City easily."
"But the Su Lu command is different. General Shabulit is also a fierce general. He led 30,000 tribal troops. In just one day, he was completely killed by the Han army led by Su Lu."
"It's not going to be easy for us this time."
Fourth Prince Flag, the junction of Rouran and Thule.
There are many Han army camps.
The left army that attacked Thule suffered heavy losses and temporarily decided to rest here. The Chinese army also held military meetings for several days in a row to summarize the left army's tactics and difficulties encountered during the march, so as to avoid future battles.
Encountered again.
In the Chinese military tent, all the generals were sitting in their seats, with pens, ink, paper and inkstones on the table in front of them.
Dong Cheng looked ugly, and the left army was under his command. In this battle to annihilate the Tuledong royal court, more than 500 were lost, and more than 400 of them were lost during the march, especially in the snow caves all over the grassland.
He took the lives of countless brothers.
"Snow caves are difficult to identify. You have to step on them with a horse, and you have to step on them several times before you know whether they are a snow cave. It is really difficult to identify."
Dong Cheng said with an ugly face, "This thing is really difficult to identify. Only if the cavalry doesn't ride horses can they hope to avoid such casualties."
"During the march, horse-drawn sleighs can be used. All cavalrymen should dismount and ride on the sleigh."
Sun Xiu, the commander of the cavalry army, spoke of his own opinions. In this battle, the cavalry army led by Sun Xiu went first. They also encountered the problem of snow caves on the way. Sun Xiu had an idea and ordered the cavalry troops to dismount. Unexpectedly, the problem was solved.
.
The horse itself is quite spiritual. When the snow cave is about to collapse, the horse can spiritually avoid it. On the contrary, when there are cavalry, the horse cannot avoid it at all.
The troops discussed for a while and finally decided that Sun Xiu's method was good. Although it was not good for combat, it was a good way to avoid non-combat casualties.
"Commander Commander, in this battle, our department is willing to be the vanguard and wipe out Rouran."
After summing up the battle, Yingyuan was the first to step forward and ask for orders to lead the troops.
Sun Xiu was no longer willing: "The vanguard is still our Qi army's business. If you are an infantry soldier in Yingyuan, don't fight. If you continue to fight, can you win over Feiniao Camp?"
Wang Xiaoliu stood up next to him: "Commander, Commander-in-Chief, I fought this battle steadily and ran fast. I think I fought well. I beg Commander-in-Chief, considering that we didn't make any achievements in this battle, let me
Our troops are the vanguard to attack Rouran."
Suddenly, chaos broke out in the tent, and all the generals and lieutenants jumped up, clamoring to be the vanguard to attack Rouran.
