Ling Tian looked at a map spread out in front of him and spoke helplessly.
This map comes from Nie Xiaoqian's caravan. Although Nie Xiaoqian's caravan is said to be first-class in Bei'an and even the Han Dynasty, in this era, the map is undoubtedly a military secret. So, Nie Xiaoqian's caravan can
The secrets obtained basically mean that this thing has no secrets for any aristocratic family.
And those foreign races on the grassland happened to be specially brought here by the aristocratic families to accumulate military merit for themselves.
"The invasion of foreign tribes must be an earth-shattering event. Basically, 90% of the troops in the north of the Han Dynasty will advance towards the grassland. They will not stop until they slaughter the grassland. This is the domineering character developed by the Han Dynasty for hundreds of years. However, this
Once, if you really do this, a disaster awaits the big man, and the Yellow Turban Army will definitely take advantage of this incident to revolt..."
Ling Tian looked at Nie Xiaoqian and said, the latter's face was also filled with bitterness at this time.
As a very smart woman, Nie Xiaoqian understands these principles.
The uprising of the Yellow Turban Army was not a secret in later generations, and Nie Xiaoqian also heard clearly what Zhang Jiao said personally about the man's strength being exhausted.
So, when 90% of the Han army in the north went to the grasslands, Zhang Jiao would not have done anything unless he was a fool.
Although with the current strength of the big man, as long as he doesn't seek death himself, or the aristocratic family's collective brains are crazy, it is probably impossible for Zhang Jiao to successfully rebel.
However, again, Ling Tian and Nie Xiaoqian both came from later generations, and both of them knew very well the real disaster caused by the Yellow Turban Uprising to the Han Dynasty. This does not mean that its rebellion severely damaged the Han Dynasty.
But this rebellion unleashed the demons in the hearts of those wealthy families.
Although the original aristocratic families were powerful, that power was attached to the big man. Their power was tied to the big man's.
But after the Yellow Turban Uprising, those aristocratic families discovered that they could obtain their power by relying on their own power. Then, they suddenly discovered that many aristocratic families actually had the power they had obtained by themselves, instead of the power given by the Han Dynasty.
Then, no matter how unambitious the family is, they will probably follow the path of becoming an independent country if they are worried about being suppressed by hostile families.
That was when the Han Dynasty fell apart.
"I can find out the location of the aliens who are preparing to go south..."
Nie Xiaoqian gritted her teeth and said.
If Ling Tian had no interest in this matter, Nie Xiaoqian might suppress her mother's heart and not do anything. But now, since Ling Tian also doesn't want to see the troubled times coming, Nie Xiaoqian will naturally choose to do her best to help Ling Tian prevent the troubled times from coming.
.
Now, it is probably difficult to directly stop the Yellow Turban Uprising, so we can only try not to give the Yellow Turbans a chance to revolt.
And directly exterminating those alien races who want to go south is the most direct method.
After Nie Xiaoqian and Ling Tian made the decision, Nie Xiaoqian's caravan began to quickly display its ability to collect information that should not belong to a caravan. Soon, all the news about the aliens on the grassland who were preparing to go south had been sent to Nie Xiaoqian.
And Ling Tian's hands.
After Nie Xiaoqian wiped out several tribes that were extremely powerful in this period of history, the alien tribes that were preparing to go south at this time were the newly rising tribes.
Among them is Khitan.
This tribe, which would have taken four to five hundred years to appear in normal history, and eight hundred years before it would be strong enough to establish an empire in Asia, has now appeared in advance and has reached a certain scale.
Nie Xiaoqian's caravan brought back the news that the Khitan had taken advantage of the family's desire for the grassland aliens to go south and recovered more than a dozen small new tribes and gathered more than 200,000 string-controllers.
Two hundred thousand cavalry, in the past, was nothing to the overlords on the grassland. In fact, even now, it is nothing to some overlords on the grassland. However, the tribes in Bei'an had already been screwed by Nie Xiaoqian.
The more than 200,000 Khitan people are already an extremely terrifying force for this area.
In addition to the Khitan, there are about five or six tribes on the grassland who are also preparing to go south. These tribes range from a few thousand to tens of thousands, and the total number of these tribes is about 100,000.
"Nearly three hundred thousand cavalry can basically threaten any territory in the north..."
Nie Xiaoqian stood in front of the map, with a trace of fatigue on her face.
With three hundred thousand cavalry, there is no doubt that no matter how strong her caravan is and how elite her escorts are, they cannot stop her.
Only the regular army of the Han Dynasty could resist an invasion of this scale.
There is no doubt that the war in the north will inevitably begin. The children of those aristocratic families will also have the opportunity to gain military glory through this opportunity, and the Yellow Turban Army will also revolt.
"Let's go overseas, find a big island, convert the caravan to shipping...and move the entire Bei'an there..."
Nie Xiaoqian turned to Ling Tian with a bitter smile and said.
No matter how great Nie Xiaoqian is, she really feels powerless in the face of the current situation.
"We haven't lost yet..."
Ling Tian reached out and rubbed Nie Xiaoqian's head.
There is no doubt that the big man now has indeed reached the most dangerous moment, and what is even more helpless is that no matter how much Ling Tian wants to save this big man, he is just an ordinary person.
Yes, ordinary people.
Ling Tian now does not have the strength to form an army by himself, nor does he have any special status.
In this big man, Ling Tian is just a normal person with strong force and broad knowledge.
Such a person is certainly a great person, but if he wants to save a huge empire, there is basically not much possibility.
However, just because it's unlikely, doesn't mean it's impossible.
If Ling Tian was alone now, it would be absolutely extremely difficult for Ling Tian to do anything he wanted to do.
However, Nie Xiaoqian's achievements over more than ten years have given Ling Tian many advantages.
Not to mention those fierce generals, the caravan alone is enough to give Ling Tian a terrifying boost later.
"Tell me, if I can destroy the Khitan in one battle, can I deter those foreign races who want to go south..."
Cold words came out of Ling Tian's mouth. He wanted a peaceful and peaceful world, but that didn't mean he wanted the world to be unified. Just kidding, America is still playing slavery at the moment. Could it be that he
And to be the savior of slaves.
All he cared about was the Central Plains, a peaceful Central Plains. Ling Tian could take Nie Xiaoqian to live in seclusion anywhere, or live peacefully in any village or town.
Now that his strength is at its weakest in history, not to mention that he wants peace and stability. Even if he doesn't want to, he can't travel through the world to other places. In troubled times, he can only go with the flow. Isn't it fun?
In order to live a peaceful life, Ling Tianzhen didn't care how many aliens he killed.
Zhang Jiao is considered a wise man.
The old man knew what the family was thinking and what would happen if the aliens went south. Then he made a time and plan for the rebellion.
However, if Ling Tian can destroy 200,000 Khitan in one battle, it is hard to say whether Zhang Jiao will rebel.
Zhang Jue does not believe that man is destined to conquer heaven. He is a true Taoist priest. Zhang Jue obviously believes in destiny.
However, no matter how much he believes in destiny, Zhang Jiao is not a madman, let alone a war madman.
Without complete assurance, Zhang Jiao would never take action easily.
Even though Ling Tian had only met Zhang Jue once, Ling Tian believed that he would never misjudge Zhang Jue. In fact, Ling Tian believed that in normal history, there would never be such a situation in this world where Tang Zhou was captured and the Yellow Turban rebellion plan was exposed.
matter.
There were thirty thousand defenders in Bei'an, of which Nie Xiaoqian's caravan provided three thousand elite soldiers, and the rest were soldiers directly recruited by Ling Tian locally.
Ling Tian had not been in control of Bei'an for a long time, so the only people who could fight against the Khitan cavalry were the three thousand men from Nie Xiaoqian's caravan, plus the five thousand men who were originally attached to the caravan but were later inserted into the army.
Three days have passed since Ling Tian and Nie Xiaoqian talked about the destruction of the Khitan's 200,000 cavalry. Nie Xiaoqian has presented all the information about the Khitan cavalry in front of Ling Tian.
"I have prepared two thousand Rhubarb crossbows and 600,000 crossbow arrows. Each Rhubarb crossbow and every arrow are absolutely top-quality. Even if we only have eight thousand people, we can still shoot all the Khitan cavalry into sieves."
…”
Handing the Khitan information to Ling Tian, Nie Xiaoqian spoke with a hint of determination.
Ling Tian smiled slightly. He knew that Nie Xiaoqian only said it nicely. In fact, a clear look of worry could be seen in this woman's eyes.
Eight thousand versus two hundred thousand, even with the Dahuang Crossbow, the supreme artifact of the Han Dynasty, this battle would definitely not be easy to win.
The Rhubarb Crossbow is indeed powerful, with strong penetrating power and an effective range of more than 400 steps. It is not inferior to the muskets of the late Qing Dynasty. Apart from the high cost, this thing has no shortcomings.
However, there is also a problem with this thing, and that is the command.
Just like the muskets of the late Qing Dynasty, a top-notch commander can make the musketeers invincible, while a rubbish can trap even the most elite musketeers to death.
During the Three Kingdoms period, when the most famous warriors emerged in large numbers in later generations, there was only one Quyi who used the Jinnu to great effect. He died too early and failed to fulfill the Jinnu's myth. After Quyi, although the Jinnu also
They have shown their power, but most of them have been coordinated with other arms.
Can Ling Tian's commanding ability be comparable to that of Qu Yi? There is no doubt that it is impossible.
However, Ling Tian also has his own characteristics.
"Get on your horse..."
A cold voice roared from Ling Tian's mouth. Originally, this kind of military formation command relied on command flags. In fact, there were indeed flag bearers waving flags to convey Ling Tian's orders at this time, but Ling Tian's power was extremely tyrannical.
, but he is able to send his voice to the ears of every soldier in the army.
A trace of strange spiritual power spread out, and then enveloped hundreds of people around Ling Tian.
The emperor is angry...
Ling Tian had no longer used this power from Yang Guang, but he still had no problem using it now.
Although this power also declined as his strength declined, at the same time as it declined, Ling Tian's control of this power became more sophisticated.
Originally, using this power required a great tacit understanding between the entire team and the commander, or a certain connection between the spirit of the entire team and the commander.
However, at this time, Ling Tian's emperor was furious, but he vaguely conveyed his will to hundreds of people around him.
This invisible transmission of will is very wonderful. Hundreds of people around him, including Han Dang and others, looked at Ling Tian strangely. Just now, they seemed to think that they could clearly understand what Ling Tian was doing when he was riding his horse.
Every thought.
As a well-known general later, Han Dang knew exactly what this feeling meant.
In the military formation, if the generals below could understand every thought of the general, and they could understand it naturally without using any words, then the cooperation between them would reach an extremely terrifying level.
With this kind of cooperation, even if you face ten times the enemy, you will definitely be able to defeat it.
However, Han Dang didn't know it at this time, but there was a hint of regret on Ling Tian's face as he rode out.
The Emperor's Wrath is still the Emperor's Wrath, but the current Ling Tian is no longer the Ling Tian before, so the power of the Emperor's Wrath cannot be truly exerted at all. Otherwise, these eight thousand people will all envelope the Emperor's Wrath, and then increase it.
One chip, not to mention two hundred thousand Khitan cavalry, even two million can chop melons and vegetables.
Thousands of people went out to fight, and there was great commotion.
Bei'an City, Xu Family, Xu Feng sat coldly in the main hall, and opposite him sat a man wearing Confucian robes kneeling.
"The Eunuchs are so powerful. If we can't go any further, the entire court will be occupied by the Eunuchs. It's ridiculous for that group of people to launch a butcher to think they can compete with the Eunuchs. Our family has been inherited for thousands of years. When did it fall?"
To the point where a butcher is needed to help hold up the front..."
The man sitting opposite Xu Feng spoke coldly, looking at Xu Feng calmly as he spoke.
"Nie Xiaoqian is indeed an extraordinary woman. Her achievements in farming are probably not as good as those of the farmers back then. However, because of this, we must protect her even more. Since Ling Tian has been sleeping for more than ten years
, Why can I be so normal as soon as I wake up? Hasn’t Master Xu ever thought about it..."
The cold words continued, more like an agreement, and in this era, the theory of ghosts and gods was also flourishing. Xu Feng nodded calmly, seeming to agree with the man's words.
However, the man didn't care at all about Xu Feng's approval.
"The Khitan can be destroyed, but Ling Tian cannot come to destroy it, let alone destroy it now. After all, others have not invaded my Han territory, how can we kill them without teaching... I suggest that we give the Khitan a warning.
Let them avoid Ling Tian and those people to avoid misunderstandings between the two sides..."
The words were no longer cold, but became indifferent.
Xu Feng glanced at this man, and then the expression on his face softened.
Indeed, there should be no misunderstanding. Ling Tian has too many problems, so they are just helping Nie Xiaoqian at the moment and avoiding diplomatic disputes.
