If the Jin army doesn't come, Liu Yan doesn't have to hesitate.
The main force of the Han Army confronted Shi Zun's private army, and the rest of the troops looted in other places. They had a posture of never giving up until they robbed all the places they passed.
The state of Zhao in Shijie did not attack fortresses and fortresses, and allowed local giants to stand on their own. Later generations regarded this as the foundation of the revival of Han culture in the Central Plains. These great powers who built fortresses and fortresses to protect themselves did play a key role in the later revival of Han culture in the Central Plains.
However, most contemporary people are not grateful, especially those ordinary people who seek asylum for their lives. They exist at the bottom of the fortress and the stronghold. In addition to being bullied by "locals", they often have any disasters. Unfortunately, they are the ones who need to die.
There is a premise for the heroic powers of the state of Zhao in Shijie who ignore the stronghold and protect themselves. First, these heroic powers do have tortoise shells with perfect fortifications. The Hu people are not good at attacking the city and have no advantage of equipment. Second, these heroic powers will pay taxes on the Hu people. In fact, if the people who build the stronghold and protect themselves do not pay taxes, the Hu people will attack. The dead people are usually Jin people, both offensive and defensive.
The Han army first showed the sharpness of bows and crossbows against the Xuzhou army. Later, it cleared the fortress and stronghold, and there were a large number of bed crossbows and stone throwing carts, which confirmed the deep strength of the Han Army's measuring equipment.
The Han Army, which swept most of Xuzhou, gained a lot, population and materials, more war experience and trained non main combat forces.
The military operation in Xuzhou ended after raging three counties in Xuzhou. In fact, it can't be called rampant. In addition to attacking fortresses, fortresses and nomadic tribes, most Jin people are still willing to go to the Han ruled area to live. Generally speaking, there will be more beneficiaries than victims.
With a large number of troops retreating from the water system to Qingzhou, the confrontation between the main force of the Han Army and Shi Zun's private army came to an end. The confrontation between the two armies was not fierce. Liu Yan did not have enough fighting power, and Shi Zun did not want to lose strength.
The competition among Shi Hu's many sons is extremely fierce. If Shi Zun's strength is lost in the battle with the Han Army, how can he compete with the rest of his brothers?
Before the main force of the Han army returned to Qingzhou, the Shijie Zhao army in the direction of Jizhou had begun to carry out military operations against Qingzhou. It was basically some tentative infiltration, which was small in scale but very frequent.
Before the main force of the Han Army turned around, the Han Army defending Shijie Zhao army basically took the defensive, resulting in sun Fudu's headquarters crossing the Yellow River into Qi county soon.
The Han Army in Qi county has never attacked. The Han Army attaches importance to the defense chain of Shandong Peninsula. The defense line is set up in Beihai county to defend the rear territory.
In view of the large scale of the war and the cessation of the war on the Korean Peninsula, LV Tai and a group of generals were transferred back.
At the same time, a group of generals and troops in the east of Liao 1 were transferred back to Qingzhou to participate in the war. The east of Liao 1 only left the necessary garrison to deploy against the long city wall.
The main force of the Han army was to return to Qingzhou by land. The cavalry was used as the leader and the rear of the hall. It was not until the cavalry far from the rear of Xuzhou that they made efforts to catch up with the leader, and the cavalry rushed to Pingshou first.
At present, the capital of Beihai county is no longer Pingshou, but Xiami, which has been expanded again and again.
Hirsutsu will mainly undertake flank protection in the future war. It can also be used as a base for flank assault, where the cavalry is properly arranged.
Xiami will still be the command hub of the war and the fortress to stick to when the situation is the worst. There will be the most troops stationed there, and Liu Yan will complete the command of the campaign here.
Duchang is another flank of the whole defense line. As a city relatively close to the coastline, it will also be one of the main supply areas of the Han Navy, connecting the Bohai Sea through beach water. Due to the special geographical location, the infantry stationed here will be the main force of the Han Army attacking Jizhou from the sea.
It took eight days to return to Xiami city. Liu Yan first learned about Qingzhou and found an opportunity to gather high-rise people.
Still looking for a higher building, put it on the wind screen and set up a banquet. Looking at his subordinates who rarely gathered together again, Liu Yan raised a glass to invite them to drink first and put down the wine before saying: "Sun Fudu stayed in Qijun and didn't advance rashly. Obviously, he was waiting for Yao Yizhong?"
In other words, the year has entered autumn, which is the main cutting season. Looking out from a high place, there is a piece of green in the plain, with yellowing. It is that the grass withers and the leaves will fall.
"The number of Jizhou troops entering Qi county should be between 30000 and 40000. These troops are not mobs, but Hebei County soldiers." Cai you dries the wine and says cautiously, "the number of troops is small, but we can't take it lightly."
Since the establishment of the Han Dynasty, it has been able to outnumber the crowd and win the war many times. In fact, it is the reason for occupying the essence of the army. It is not like what the Hu people always like to attract people to participate in the war.
The army has never simply talked about the number. Many times, it is more difficult to deal with fewer and better soldiers than more and miscellaneous soldiers. Obviously, the Shijie Zhao army has been stunned from the losses, especially the failure of the Xuzhou army has sounded an alarm to the Shijie Zhao army's command. It is no longer good or bad, and plans to fight with elite troops.
"Yao Yizhong's troops are also streamlined. He only carries 50000 Qiang soldiers and does not summon miscellaneous Hu to fight with the army." Cai you had previously stayed behind in the rear and had the most detailed understanding of the movements of Zhao Jun in Shijie: "behind their so-called elite troops, there are a huge number of miscellaneous soldiers."
"The elite acted as the leader and the mob followed. That was the first time that the Hu people did so after occupying the Central Plains. It fully shows that the Hu people have begun to face us squarely and know that we are difficult to deal with." Sang Yu said happily, "in today's world, only we can make the Hu people so cautious, when it comes to light!"
The originally serious atmosphere was relaxed by sang Yu's words. They raised their glasses and shouted "dry!", All drink to the bottom.
Jizhou army has entered Qingzhou. Although there is only a former army, whether it is 30000 or 40000, the scale is not small.
The Qiang troops led by Yao Yizhong have just entered Sizhou. Because most of them are cavalry, the marching is overwhelming.
"Nearly 120000 war horses, more than 200000 cattle and sheep, can we not cover the sky and the earth?" Liu Yan took a special look at sang Yu. The information about the Qiang troops came from the Sang family. He looked around the crowd and said in a loud voice, "we fight too many soldiers, but we have to compete with the so-called strong army today."
The generals all responded loudly, and the result was that all raised their glasses and drank "drink victory!" Once.
Those who were finally transferred back to Qingzhou from Chaoxian Peninsula and Liaodong Peninsula, after observing paoze and colleagues they had not seen for some time, obviously found that their mental state was different from that before.
How to put it? Probably there were several wars in the Central Plains. The relationship between Lien Chan and victory in a row, and the people involved in the war have a sense of self-confidence.
After several big victories, many people's titles have been promoted several levels. Those who should be promoted also have higher and higher official positions, but the rest basically stay in place.
To speak of, LV Tai and Xu Zheng should have been the first independent generals in the Han Dynasty, but now Xu Zheng is an official, doctor and general, but LV Tai, who is exiled in Chaoxian Peninsula, is still a hairpin curl and a general.
Just because he made a wrong choice at a certain time, LV Tai deeply felt that the gap between himself and his former colleagues was being opened, and some people who were much lower than himself began to level off and surpass. For a martial artist, especially a martial artist who wants to make achievements, LV Tai is sad and angry in the face of this situation.
This time from Chaoxian Peninsula to Qingzhou, there are not only the headquarters of the Han Army, but also 3000 Koguryo army, 5000 Ji army and 2000 Xinluo army. They will be under the command of LV Tai.
On Qingzhou side, with the troops coming from behind, the number of foreign troops has reached 17000, including Koguryo, Baiji, Xinluo and Japanese troops. They will all be assigned to LV Tai for command, which means that LV Tai has become a miscellaneous Army... No, according to the understanding of Chinese civilization, the troops on Chaoxian Peninsula are even inferior to the miscellaneous army.
The people of the Central Plains always regard all people outside the Central Plains as people who drink blood and eat their hair, and treat any non Central Plains people with a kind of superiority. Although the Central Plains has now become the world of the Hu people, the idea that the Central Plains is the center of the world remains the same, which leads to some of LV Tai's... How to say, it is sad. What comforts him is that Liu Yan did not forget his existence when he convened the core senior management.
"Three thousand armour mounts, eight thousand sudden mounts, two thousand bow mounts, eight thousand light mounts, and fifteen thousand elite infantry." Ji Chang said some data before continuing: "this is our absolute elite."
Liu Yan added: "more than these, follow-up can be added."
Everyone looked at Liu Yan in awe. Up to now, they have no mind to think about how the elite came from. They only regard this phenomenon as Liu Yan's "talent".
"Our main battle force is the 36000." Ji Chang now plays the role of general manager, not the general manager without * * * * *, but the general manager of military affairs, responsible for coordination, mobilization and baggage distribution. He paused and said, "the number of new conscripts and troops of relevant classes is 170000."
Everyone, including Liu Yan, sighed. The total number of the main battle forces and miscellaneous troops had exceeded 200000. Two years ago, the total population of the Han Dynasty was less than 200000.
Liu Yan was stunned for a little while and asked, "how many people do we have now?"
"This attack on Xuzhou has yielded a great harvest, with a total of more than 1.37 million." Tian Shuo's face was beaming at first, but his face was bitter behind him: "placement... It's a lot of trouble!"
Hundreds of thousands of people were captured at once. They migrated in the fire of war. Whether it was to break through the captivity or take the initiative to come and run, the complexity was not low at all. It was strange not to be in trouble.
The front has to fight and the rear has to be resettled. The stall in the Han Dynasty is a little big
