Chapter 341

In today's world, there are not many countries, not to mention those too far away. There are more than ten countries on the same chessboard as the Han side. In the first sequence, there are Shijie Zhao state, Murong Yan state and the small ~ Dynasty ~ court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. In the second sequence, there are Zhang's Liang state, Li's Chenghan state and Tuoba generation state. In the third sequence, there are Ran's Qin state, Koguryo, Baiji The fourth sequence of the Hun tribes is some local separatist forces.

It seems to many people that Hanbu can rank first, but if we really understand Hanbu, we will not only look at the military, but also look at the productivity and economic strength.

If we make an open and fair comment, the Eastern Jin Dynasty and the Han Dynasty on the chessboard, one country and one tribe, can completely defeat the other countries in terms of productivity and economic strength.

Although the Eastern Jin Dynasty was embarrassed, they at least once had the right to rule the Central Plains. In addition, the details of ethnic groups and inherent traditional territories made the Eastern Jin Dynasty suffer heavy losses in production capacity and economic strength, but its soft power still can not be underestimated.

Liu Yan's own reason is purely in the Han Dynasty. Non systematic production is under construction, agricultural planning is also under way, and things such as handicrafts are taking shape the slowest.

Everyone only saw that the Han army was not short of weapons and armor, but what they didn't understand was that Liu Yan existed on the basis of everything. They would only take it for granted that the Han ministry had an expert in internal affairs, or an expert as high as tens of hundreds of stories.

Of course, Liu Yan's things are also exchanged with resources. They are also made with real materials. The difference is that the production process is carried out by system personnel, not out of thin air.

Yao Yizhong made all the arrangements and came to the arrow tower of the Chinese army alone.

At night, the river course of the Yellow River was full of fire. It was the arrival of Han Army ships firing massive rockets at the floating bridge. The rocket ignited the floating bridge, and the fire spread to the floating objects in the river course.

Without too much speculation, the Han fleet must have thrown kindling materials such as fire oil into the river. Under the physical law that oil is lighter than water, they will float down the water and stick some things floating on the river. As long as there is Mars, they will burn.

When the Han fleet appeared, four floating bridges were destroyed one after another. At least 6000 people disappeared together with the floating bridges. They were either buried in the fire or in the water. They didn't know where they were washed away.

Yao Yizhong has informed the whole battalion about the more than 6000 old and weak women and children killed by the Han army. In order to arouse the indignation of the soldiers, it can not be said that it has no effect, but the effect is actually very limited.

The concept of Hu people is different from that of Han and Miao people. The Han and Miao people pay attention to the family and would rather sacrifice themselves than preserve the old and children. Hu people give priority to preserving themselves before they can take care of the old and the young within their ability. Even when they encounter someone who must be sacrificed, the old and the weak are definitely sacrificed. It can be seen from the fact that the old people have to go out and kill themselves when they encounter a white disaster on the grassland.

The back road of the Yellow River was cut off, which put great psychological pressure on Yao Yizhong. He was like this. You can imagine what kind of mentality other people should be.

Facing the crisis, Yao Yizhong, as the coach, showed absolutely excellent quality. He calmly comforted the army so that he could not even resist. He did not expect to turn defeat into victory. After all, the soldiers were in a panic. It was easy to see the collapse of repeated counterattacks. He insisted that he would become very fragile with the continuous attack of the Han army.

A burst of wood was trampled by cow leather boots. Yao Yizhong looked around. Yao Xiang first appeared with his head, and then slowly climbed up the arrow tower.

"Father." Yao Xiang has a rare quality for teenagers, that is, enough persistence and calm in case of trouble. He saluted first and then said, "the war horses in the camp have been gathered."

"Yes." Yao Yizhong looked at the Yellow River again and said in a low voice, "this time, my father didn't know geography, and I didn't expect that the Han army would be so tenacious that it could persist under the condition of absolute number disadvantage."

"Father, the troops brought by Liu Yan must be loyal. Otherwise, how dare you take yourself as bait." Yao Xiang advised, "my father also has loyal followers, even more than Liu Yan."

Yao Yizhong has only one goal to gather the war horses and greet the loyal troops to prepare for breakthrough, rather than want to fight as he said before, let alone play a trick of taking himself as the bait when the morale of the army wavers.

Low morale, coupled with the confusion of the military, in such a situation, it's disgusting to live long enough to use yourself as bait? Yao Yizhong is to appease and deceive those non Qiang generals and schools, so as not to let them escape first. He would be so clear that the state of Zhao in Shijie should not speak of integrity or morality. If people who are not of their own race really believe it, they are definitely mentally ill.

"Father?" Yao Xiang hesitated for a long time, and finally asked, "there are tens of thousands of old and weak people in the camp. Do you really want to give up even them?"

Yao Yizhong initially brought more than 300000 Qiang people, and some miscellaneous Hu and Jin people came to join him by themselves, making the number close to 500000. After a series of wars, more than 150000 people were killed and injured. As for the number of people killed in the war, Yao Yizhong is not as accurate as Liu Yan, but it is estimated that the number of casualties is close to 100000.

Three days ago, Yao Yizhong planned to withdraw the old and weak women and children to the North Bank of the Yellow River. The number of people who successfully reached the North Bank of the Yellow River should be about 80000.

In order to intercept the Han army who came to support Liu Yan, the Qiang army divided into two forces, 40000 troops to intercept the infantry of the Han Army and 50000 troops to intercept the cavalry of the Han army. Roughly speaking, the number of people who fled back to the camp after the collapse of the two interception forces should be about 30000?

How many people are there in Yao Yizhong's hands? Because there is no precise concept, there is only a guess. There should be about 240000?

"It's only 17 days. There were originally a large team of 550000 people, and less than half of them stayed in the camp..." Yao Yizhong said with a bitter smile to his fifth son Yao Xiang: "in this battle, even if my father successfully broke through with the army, it's conceivable that he will be shamed and laughed by the people all over the world."

What to laugh at is secondary. What Yao Yizhong needs to worry about is how Shi Hu will settle after his reputation is no longer in use. What's more, the Qiang people suffered heavy losses in this battle, and how should they be treated by other ethnic groups.

The war has eroded. It's from the people's hearts. It's not easy to stick to it when surrounded. It's not easy to turn the situation around? Looking at the battlefield, how many Qiang troops went up to counter attack, except that a very few troops could hold on for a long time, the rest were immediately collapsed by the strong bow and crossbow of the Han army.

Yao Xiang was still young after all. He hesitated and asked, "father, can we... Can we break through successfully?"

It hasn't happened yet, and who can be 100% sure of what will happen. Yao Yizhong did not blindly make unreliable guarantees, but said: "this morning, 80000 cavalry broke through in two stages."

The back road of the Yellow River was cut off. Fortunately, the narrow land of the Yellow River and Jishui can break through in the West.

At present, the number of the Han army is still at a disadvantage. However, the Han army is surrounded by land on three sides. Although the Han Army in the west is the largest, it also makes Yao Yizhong feel at ease. If the number of Han troops in the west is small, Yao Yizhong should really be worried. After all, everyone can guess that the breakthrough is to choose the West.

Yao Yizhong has few choices. He knows it will be very difficult and must do it. He only initially appeased those generals who didn't know the truth. The deception won't last long. Once the first wave of cavalry began to break through, those generals will react. It's difficult to say what the people who were deceived will react.

"Follow my father closely when breaking through." Yao Yizhong looked at Yao Xiang very seriously, almost clenched his teeth and asked, "do you understand?"

There were too many fires burning, which were caused by the fighting in the camp. In addition to the burning camp, there are unimaginable many torches and bonfires on both sides.

The day of the full moon has just passed. Tonight is a moonless night. Like the day, the fire lights illuminate the clouds and even cover the stars.

Yao Yizhong took Yao Xiang to inspect the camp. Of course, his move was to enable the soldiers to see that they were still in the camp and appease the morale of the army. At the same time, it was not to see how the situation deteriorated.

"Lord, there's really no way."

"Yes, Lord. It's not that the soldiers don't work hard. The strong bow and crossbow of the Han army is too strong to rush up!"

"Even if we rush up, we can't break through the enemy's shield wall..."

"It's a lot to have 300 or 400 people rush to the enemy's shield wall when 1000 people launch an assault."

Yao Yizhong heard pessimistic remarks all the way. I don't know if it was an illusion. He saw resentment and a dangerous look in the eyes of some non Qiang generals and schools.

After returning to the core area, Yao Yizhong summoned his confidant general and said: "the situation is far more serious than we thought. The breakthrough will be launched in advance."

No one said a word, and everyone looked serious.

The breakthrough needs cover, but it doesn't mean that the breakthrough is a blind rush, so there needs to be a rear hall force, which can't give up resistance and should play a role in stopping and delaying.

Someone asked, "chief, will they surrender?"

Yao Yizhong decided to break through in advance only when he found such signs. No one was sure whether someone had secretly reached any agreement with the Han army. When the war conditions were extremely unfavorable, betrayal was never a strange thing. In particular, his command was multi-ethnic, and there were fifty or sixty thousand jin people in the camp.

Now that the decision has been made, Yao Yizhong's so-called loyal troops can only speed up the preparation, resulting in a lot of noise.

Too much noise will attract attention. Unknown generals or schools can come in person or send people. They all ask Yao Yizhong questions, such as whether they want to break through and retreat.

I don't know when songs began to appear in the killing camp. It was the women stranded in the camp who took the lead. They echoed each other from a distance, making the women's unique crisp songs sing with the sounds of fighting, screams, groans... And so on.

"Hey!" Cheng Shuo looked out through the gap in the shield wall and asked his immediate boss Dou A: "what is the Hu woman singing?"

Doo ah didn't know what he was eating with a clay pot and a spoon, especially when the air was full of stench and blood, he could eat sweetly. After listening to the speech for a while, he said, "Qiang love songs."

"What?" Cheng Shuo was stunned and said, "full of people are singing love songs on the battlefield of the dead?"

"Or else!" After Dou A's promotion, he learned a few words through intensive training and heard a lot of stories: "anyway, it's good for us that Hu women began to sing. For example, what did Hun women sing hundreds of years ago?"

"Make me colorless or something." Cheng Shuo looked at Dou a with a slight dislike and muttered, "I've always boasted that I've learned a lot. I didn't learn anything."

Doo ah didn't hear the ridicule. He went to attend the training for less than a month. If he got excellent results, he wouldn't be the commander of other departments. He should become a military marquis. It was a pain in his heart and a great shame.

They talked, but they saw a paoze running with an obvious smile on his face.

"That... Is Wang Biao?" Cheng Shuo said strangely, "what beautiful thing happened? He laughed so loud."

"Wait." Dou ah stood up as if thinking of something: "did I just say that the singing of Hu women is good for us?"

Cheng Shuo nodded: "yes, you said so."

The next moment, Dou a jumped in place and said "we made it!", Then run.

Cheng Shuo was surprised to see Dou a "ha ha" laughing and ran away quickly. His face was full of consternation.

It can be seen that some officers on the front line reacted one after another, and they almost ran towards the rear with joy.

It is not common for songs to appear on the battlefield. For example, the story of "besieged on all sides" between Liu Bang and Xiang Yu, and the Xiongnu people once sang many times and were expelled by the Han army for 3000 Li. More obviously, the military camp is never a place to make noise at will. It is the basic discipline not to shout, let alone so many people sing songs that can feel desolate and sad.

Liu Yan, who was in the rear, naturally did not personally see the officers who noticed the clues and came to report. He saw the superiors of the officers' superiors.

Well, it's taboo for the army to report beyond the level. Even if it's urgent, it should report up layer by layer. Looking at the delay, discipline is discipline. I'd rather be delayed than be flexible. Once the discipline of the army develops in a flexible direction, it will be disorganized and undisciplined when it is small and large. What can we expect from an undisciplined army?

Liu Yan, who received the report, almost didn't think about it. He said firmly, "Yao Yizhong wants to break through!"

Honor to the majority of book friends, wish you a big fortune in the new year, and everything goes well!
