"Damn it... is this Dou family a clan or a country? There are six to seven hundred birds and feathers in the cart, so awesome!"
Dou's chariot is the Wugang chariot, which has a certain degree of defense. At least it can protect against arrows. It is also very effective against chariots and cavalry. When it enters an open area and is connected together, it directly becomes a "city"
.
Every time the Chu army fought against the Jin, the highlight was the infantry. The effect of chariot fighting had been greatly reduced with the upgrade of techniques and tactics.
Coupled with the proliferation of metal tools and the increased efficiency of soil work, it has become extremely difficult for tanks to complete specified tasks at specified locations as before.
It is no longer surprising that the tilt of national resources in military equipment has gradually shifted from chariots to more complete infantry phalanxes.
Every mountain in the Chu Kingdom has its own strength to expand externally, and the most powerful among them is the Dou family. That is to say, the Dou family was divided into four. When it was still a whole, the Dou family had been in charge of the national affairs of the Chu state for a long time.
A foreign war often reflects Dou's domestic and international needs at the time.
It can be imagined that eight of the ten princes were born in the Dou family.
"General, the Dou family may divide their troops at Lingguan and Xiguan."
"Oh? Awen, tell me what you think."
Jiang Wen, the captain of the new second brigade of martyrs, is a native of Qi, but after all he is a native of Qi who has done "martial arts". Three years ago, the old Marquis of Qi went crazy and led Lu, Wei, Song, Zheng, Chen, etc.
More than a dozen countries, large and small, organized armed demonstrations near the Huai River.
At that time, the State of Chu was licking its wounds and was recovering from the violent injuries suffered by the State of Wu. In the Huaihe River Basin, it was focusing on the development of Baiyi and Zhoulai City.
However, these two places have restricted the development of Cai State. In addition, Chu State still has territory to the northwest of Cai State, which means that it is a two-pronged attack.
This situation is somewhat similar to the geopolitical environment before the Song Dynasty. The two superpowers Wu and Jin attacked from a pincer attack and directly ruined the future of the Song Dynasty.
Cai Guo then had friction with Chu's foreign mountain forces. From fighting for water and mulberry leaves, it gradually escalated to armed conflict, and finally the conflict escalated and turned into a border conflict.
Cai Guo also knew that he was very powerful and knew that he was no match for Chu. Even if Chu had been defeated by Wu and was in the recovery period, it was unwilling to have a violent conflict during the recovery period. However, Cai Guo could not resist.
of.
So Cai Guo looked for help from the international community, and the first one that came to mind was definitely the State of Wu. However, at that time, there was a rebellion in the State of Wu by the Nanchao clan who was "riding a tiger and controlling a dragon" and ignored Cai Guo's request. He just said verbally: Chu
If the state offends Cai Guo, he will be scolded no matter how far away he is!
In a word, it won't work to verbally condemn Kuo Yi and continue to see the upper reaches of the Huaihe River from the Yangtze River with a machete.
Everyone is very busy, okay? You have to go to work during the day!
Then the State of Cai came to the State of Jin, but the State of Jin was also in trouble at that time. A prince of the Marquis of Jin died, and the fight between the princes was even more terrible than that of the State of Chu now. There is a competition in the country, how can you be so funny like you?
Boring son.
With no other choice, Cai Guo approached the veteran boss Qi Guo again.
The Marquis of Qi is a bit old, but he refuses to accept his old age. He is just thinking about killing the nearby Lai State, Ji State and other trash, but his international power must first rise.
So, the Marquis of Qi made a call. He didn't say they would form an alliance. He just said that the leader of Jingchu had crossed the border. Let's go and scare him. This scare is good. Each person will be charged one thousand to show up. How about it?
Lu Song, Zheng Wei and other countries saw that the boss was offering money, so what are you thinking about? There is no problem in standing in the field.
So they held an armed parade, which shocked the Chu State.
However, although Chu State gave in, it did not say that it was afraid of Qi State. A few horsemen jumped out and shouted: If you have the guts to do it, who is afraid of whom?
The two sides quarrel with each other for a month, and this matter is over.
Not even a bird feather fell off. Everyone went back to their homes to find their mothers, which was a perfect solution to the problem. Qi Guo showed a little bit of his relatively strong bones, Chu State continued to maintain the characteristics of low-key development, and Cai Guo's
The geopolitical environment has also been improved, and all countries have received benefits.
Perfect.
For this perfection, Cai Hou at that time thought that it would be good to find a big boss in the world, so he planned to marry his little daughter to Qi Hou.
It's just that we haven't made any arrangements yet, and we've just started to think about who to send as envoy to Qi, when Marquis Cai suddenly lost his temper. The new Marquis Cai wanted to continue marrying his sister, but the international situation suddenly changed.
A savage leader appeared out of nowhere, he was so good at beheading people, and in two years he became a mountaintop in the Southeast Overlord's country.
No matter how big the mountain is, the crazy speed of its rise is unheard of.
Gou Chen, the key southeastern overlord, continued to encourage him. This was so devilish that it made the new Marquis of Cai think about it. This Wu country cannot be offended.
Then I felt offended.
Marquis Cai was also puzzled. I just went to Xu State and took out two handfuls. It was obviously the Zheng people who beat me the hardest. Why should I call Cai State unjust?
I feel aggrieved, quite aggrieved, and it shows clearly that the leader of the Wu Kingdom is picking on the weak.
Thinking that he has a big boss in the world to take care of him, and he has a romantic relationship with King Wu, the young Marquis Cai is not afraid of this savage leader. Besides, he is about to marry his younger sister to Qi State.
At that time, Qi State provided strong foreign aid.
Unfortunately, the savage leader reached Huaishang with three strikes, five divided by two, and with one fierce operation, he first took out the three forward bases of Chu State, and then went straight to Ruxi, Huaibei. Now Cai Guo has to face a group of
The Tiger and Wolf Division is just across the river from the capital.
The only good thing about Cai Hou is that while he was running away, at least the Chu people were not idle either, and they were definitely preparing to fight with the barbarian leader.
The people of Chu did want to kill the barbarian leader, but this was not the will of the King of Chu, but the determination of the local mountains.
If they don't regain the territory east of the Dabie Mountains, Dou's family will lose a lot of extra money.
Others may not be aware of this kind of interest appeal near the Dabie Mountains, but among the captains under Li Jie, Brother Jiang has really heard about it.
As a "martial arts", Jiang Wen followed Qihou Laiguo around the Huai River, but at that time he was a country bumpkin with no future at all. He just followed whatever arrangements were made by Shangfeng.
However, he still knew the whole story, as well as the Chu State's response and the distribution of Chu State's power in the Dabie Mountains and Huai River.
"General, the Baiju Dou clan is the east branch of the Dou clan, known as the 'Martial Arts Sect'. The pass through which the Baiju Dou clan enters and exits the Dabie Mountains is Xiguan."
On the top of the mountain, Jiang Wen clicked on a cross-shaped symbol, "Going out from Xiguan to the east is Huaishang, directly facing Liaocheng, the Ying clan. In the old years, the Ying clan became a country, and the Dou clan plundered the British, so they came out of Xiguan."
"Where's Lingguan?"
"Lingguan is located to the west of Xiguan. It is not controlled by the Dou family, but by the Yun family and the Yunzhen family. However, when the Marquis of Qi questioned the King of Chu, it seemed that the Yun family and the Yunzhen family officials were married to the Dou family in Quanyi. Therefore.
The Dou family in Quanyi should be able to take advantage of this place."
After thinking about it for a while, Jiang Wen said again, "The Pass has been expanded back then, and now it must have become a military stronghold. This place is easy to defend but difficult to attack. You can enter the Huaihe River, and you can retreat to the Tang Dynasty."
"Listening to what you said, this Pass seems to be more important than Xiguan."
Li Jie frowned slightly, "If the Dou clan divides their forces, will Bai Ju and the Dou clan go here?"
"The Dou clan is divided into four points. The Dou clan in Quanyi takes the road of Lingguan. The Dou clan in Baidu may not feel comfortable walking here. Therefore, the Dou clan in Baidu will probably go through Xiguan."
"You personally lead the team and go to investigate. Bring the guides from the Six Nations. Also, my old uncle once said that there are two Jingman tribes in the Dabie Mountains who are his old friends. You can bribe the Jingman to help them."
"yes!"
There was no way I could ask my uncle Qin to help me with this matter. My uncle was already interesting enough, and he basically had all the connections he could use.
At this point, there is no way to ask an old man to climb mountains and wade in rivers.
In the distance, the large vehicles on the road were still moving forward. In a straight line distance, Li Jiejie's convoy of Wugang vehicles was only three or four kilometers away.
However, it took at least half a day to rush there, but by the time we got there, the day lilies were already cold.
The characteristics of mountainous areas are so tangled.
"To kill this Dou family, it seems that we still have to rely on the power of the Dragon God."
After looking at the surrounding terrain, Li Jie, who thought he had been promoted from County Magistrate Li to Commissioner Li, wondered if this was difficult to do. To put it simply, it was really a lot of work.
"withdraw!"
After knowing the movements of Bai Judou clan, now it is necessary to predict and set up an ambush. This is a troublesome matter, similar to the troublesome matter of exhausting the scouts.
But no matter how troublesome and expensive it is, we have to do it this way.
While Commissioner Li was busy drying Bai Ju Doushi, Captain Chen had already arrived in Baiyi with a group of "meat tickets".
When they arrived in Baiyi, Chen An found out that the boss had actually gone out to kill the Chu people.
