As soon as the chief bookkeepers learned the news, they informed every soldier of the significance of the return of Tuyuhun's main force.
Defending the power of Wu is what the Han soldiers should do to protect their home and country. But now that victory is in sight, it all depends on you. So there is nothing to hesitate about, just fight!
They were able to block Tuyuhun for a month before, and now they can naturally block it for another month!
Let's organize all the equipment used to defend the city, put the wood and rolling stones in place, and wait for a decisive battle with these Tuyuhun who suffered a thousand cuts!
The boost in morale surprised He Ruobi and he breathed a sigh of relief. He Ruobi actually didn't like these turbaned scholars very much. After all, the battlefield was a place where people were killed. Why did these scholars come to join in the fun? It's just that now He Ruobi is a
As a general of the Han Dynasty, no matter whether he likes it or not, he can only choose to abide by the rules in the army.
But now He Ruobi seems to understand the significance of His Majesty's insistence on setting up such a post in the army.
Only when the soldiers of the Han Dynasty realize what they are fighting for can they still burst out with a fighting spirit that He Ruobi could not even imagine before in the difficult situation.
Every soldier is so young. Most of them come from the northwest and Guanzhong. This has been the place where elite soldiers have been sent out since ancient times. But even so, relying on the soldiers and horses in Guanzhong before, the Northern Zhou Dynasty still couldn't resist the attack from the south.
He Ruobi can guarantee that at least when he led his army to battle, the morale and fighting spirit of his troops, especially when encountering an outnumbered enemy, were definitely not as good as the current Han soldiers.
.
For the same group of people, it seems that under the new military system of the Han Dynasty, the entire army has taken on a completely different mental outlook.
The military system inherited from the Han Dynasty has obviously proved to be no longer suitable for the current war after many years of troubled times. As the new masters of the Central Plains, the Xianbei people have also actively absorbed the excellent systems of the Han people and combined them with their own original systems to make
Change has a feeling of breaking and standing again.
However, the military system established by Xianbei can certainly serve the soldiers in wartime, serve the people in peacetime, and fight when there is a war. The generals can also grasp enough troops and horses at the first time and pull these troops to the front line.
But this naturally also brings great disadvantages. It is easy for generals to support their own troops. Of course, the soldiers under their command only know that they have generals and only know how to defend this state capital but do not know that other places must also be defended.
In addition to his own coach, there is also His Majesty above him.
From the Northern Wei Dynasty to the Northern Zhou Dynasty, it was not uncommon for a general to support his troops and respect himself.
To solve this problem, it seems very simple. Just withdraw the soldiers and horses stationed at the border to the center and put them directly under the control of the emperor. However, this also means that there will not be many elite main forces guarding the border;
If you just keep soldiers and horses at the border without sending capable generals, then it will obviously be difficult to stabilize the border with soldiers and some low-level generals. After all, there are really no variables. Just relying on these people, it is difficult to organize
The entire defense line responded quickly.
You must know that when the war comes, it is difficult to rely on the marching commanders and marching commanders who have no experience in independently commanding operations, not to mention a group of marching chiefs who seem to only be able to talk about military affairs on paper.
Therefore, in an era when communications were underdeveloped, whether it was to replace generals or soldiers, it was actually equivalent to sacrificing border security to strengthen the emperor's centralized power. There was no way around it.
The current Han Dynasty adopts the method of rotating local garrisons into the capital. This method is actually just a balance between the replacement of generals and the removal of troops. An army has to come and go to change defenses too many times, and of course it is time-consuming.
More importantly, it is a waste of financial resources, not to mention that it is impossible to fundamentally eliminate the possibility of local generals leading local garrison rebellion, it only reduces this possibility.
Therefore, in addition to adopting this balancing policy, His Majesty naturally began to start from the thoughts of every soldier and firmly grasp the thoughts of the soldiers. Then this army will naturally obey the imperial court rather than a certain person.
The dispatch of generals. Generals can command the army, but they cannot control the army.
He Ruobi didn't know what drove His Majesty to do this. After all, although this method is effective, it is not permanent. It still requires continuous investment from generation to generation, and it will even take until the country's education can be universalized to everyone, because only then
At that time, this idea of loyalty to the emperor, patriotism and defense of the country will be deeply rooted in everyone's bones. Regardless of whether they join the army or not, they will do so involuntarily.
Therefore, He Ruobi had to admit that sometimes they could not keep up with His Majesty's thoughts, and when they thought about it later, it would be very scary to think about it.
He Ruobi couldn't help but feel sorry for those guys in the Taiwei Mansion. Although they could mobilize hundreds of thousands of troops to run around by drawing on paper and on the sand table every day, right under the emperor's nose, he felt that the unique man above him
The eyes and thoughts must be very stressful, right?
A familiar whistling sound sounded from his ears, and He Ruobi suddenly came back from his thoughts.
This is the trebuchet of the Tuyuhun people.
The offensive of the Tuyuhun army began.
He Ruobi took a deep breath and drew out his saber.
How to build an army and be permanently loyal to the Han Dynasty is currently a headache for His Majesty.
And what I need to do is to lead this army to be invincible and invincible!
Arrows were like rain, flying over the city, and He Ruobi stared ahead. The dark crowd was like a raging wave, and this Wuwei City was the bow of a ship that split the raging wave.
The enemy's cavalry launched the attack from the farthest distance, but came the fastest, and soon approached the parapet outside the parapet. However, because there was a trench protection outside the parapet that had not yet been completed, the cavalry only attacked from the outside of the trench.
Just passing by and intending to shoot arrows. For these cavalry, their role in this critical battle is not as good as that of infantry, so they must show their presence when they can appear.
It was a pity that the Han army's musketeers did not intend to give them this opportunity. A row of muskets fired at them, and many cavalrymen had already fallen off their horses.
However, their arrows still caused a lot of trouble to the Han army. The musketeers could only huddle behind the wall, hiding under the shields of the swordsmen, and their shots were not very accurate.
After this volley of guns, the Tuyuhun infantry came very quickly. They had been running forward with the cavalry. After the cavalry was responsible for consuming the musketeers' volley of guns, the infantry wanted to seize this opportunity to rush forward.
