The pace of the chase between cavalry and cavalry looks very fast, but the casualties will be very limited. In this way, both sides have high mobility. I really don't want to leave some tails.
The cavalry fighting has always been a waste of time, especially when one side just wants to escape and doesn't want to fight hard. Xie an's headquarters, Shi Xuan headquarters, chased all the way to the northwest from the northwest of Chaoge, waiting for the arrival of another day, which is hundreds of miles away from Chaoge.
Ji county is a multi plain terrain in the south, with more mountains to the north, especially the border with Shangdang county has two continuous mountains.
Located in the northwest of Ji county and the border of Shangdang County, there is a mountain called Beishan. Beishan is almost connected with Qishui, and Qingshui is in the southeast.
The northernmost area of Ji county belongs to the boundary of linlie County, and there is linlie mountain in the west of linlie county.
In fact, although Beishan Mountain and Linluo mountain have two names, they are actually in the same continuous mountain range. In modern times, this continuous mountain range is called Taihang Mountain.
"The enemy wants to break through between Qishui and Qingshui to the south of Beishan!" Xie'an was riding on a war horse and looked a little dusty: "then he should directly break into Shangdang county and walk along the Danshui line next to Kan's and Gaodu."
Shangdang county is actually a mountainous and water system terrain. If you don't know the actual situation, you can't guess why Shi Xuan didn't retreat to Yecheng, but ran to a place that is not suitable for cavalry marching.
It should be said that Shi Xuan's fear of Shi Hu is to avoid being stopped and caught by xie'an's department and Li Kuang's department in some way. It can be regarded as a mistake. Whether it is a blessing or a disaster is unknown for the time being.
Who can imagine that Shi Xuan chose to go to Shangdang County out of fear of Shi Hu? Xie an has related confusion now.
"Now that we know the enemy's marching direction..." Wu Daoan was born in an aristocratic family south of the Yangtze River. He was one of the first aristocratic families who resolutely went north for new development. His current identity is Xie an's staff. He looks gentle and likes to touch his chin's beard when talking: "or can he no longer chase passively?"
Xie an has relevant ideas, but she hesitates in her heart. Speculation is just speculation. Wouldn't it be terrible if Shi Xuan broke through to Shangdang county and suddenly turned to Wei County halfway.
After the chase along the way, the two sides are already in the boundary of linlie county. Lin Xie is a county with a wide range of jurisdiction. The land of a county is almost the same as that of some small counties. It is Shangdang County in the northwest and Wei County in the northeast. It can directly enter Guangping County in the north. It can be said that where you want to go is just an option to turn a corner.
There are 50000 people in xie'an headquarters, 30000 cavalry of all kinds, and the rest are infantry. After they began to chase Shi Xuan's headquarters, there was a disconnect between the infantry and the cavalry.
Shi Xuan escaped from the Chaoge battlefield and took 8000 Donggong Gaoli, 20000 Jie people, their own ethnic group and nearly 60000 Qiang, Di and Hun people.
Xie an's pursuit of nearly 90000 Shi Xuan's people with 30000 cavalry is actually an adventure. He believes that the subsequent Han army can catch up, which also judges that Shi Xuan's headquarters has no war heart.
"Shangdang county has been in complete chaos because of racial hatred." As an aide, Wu Daoan could still watch and learn some information. He said: "the king's will is to coordinate the tyranny of the Hu people as much as possible. If the Lord is hesitant, he can continue to bite the enemy with cavalry, and the concession army will move to Shangdang county first."
Xie an mainly wants to know the trend of other friendly forces. Their position is at the forefront of the whole front. Perhaps it is more clear that they are disconnected from other friendly forces. The fastest message transmission between them is one day.
If you want to intercept, you should understand the terrain in order to achieve your goal more confidently. The Han state has been drawing topographic maps of all parts of the Central Plains. In fact, having a map is only the best reference. Military command needs further understanding to make enough decisions.
"Well." Xie'an thought it over and said, "the infantry can't participate in the chase. It can advance to Shangdang county first."
Wu Daoan's suggestion is mainly that the infantry bows and crossbows of the Han Army are very sharp. When there are strong bows and crossbows, there are also relevant Tower Shield soldiers. Even if they encounter cavalry on the way, they can turn to defense on the spot. It will not be like that the infantry without strong bows and crossbows will lack self-protection once they encounter cavalry. Moreover, the will of the Han army is enough. It is the confidence of the infantry against the Shanghu cavalry for many times. If the Jin army, he dare not have such a suggestion.
Xie an thinks more about things. He also expects Shi Xuan to find the infantry acting alone. It's better for Shi Xuan to rush up and try to eliminate it, so as to create an opportunity to fight, rather than the endless chasing.
A feasible plan was discussed. Xie an wanted to have a rest, but someone from Litan came.
Knowing that ran min sent the Yulin army to support him, and that the Yulin army had made great achievements, Xie an silently estimated that Shi Xuan's headquarters would not exceed 50000 at most, so Shi Xuan would not stop fighting.
In terms of the overall situation, the army at the forefront of Shijie Zhao in the middle reaches of the Yellow River has disintegrated, the road to attack Wei county has been opened to the Han Army, and the Han Army in some counties around Ji county can also attack wantonly.
Ran min personally led the army to pose as close to Yecheng, met with Li Kuang's headquarters in dangyin City, and then killed Anyang. They encountered strong resistance in Anyang City. As the main general of Shijie, Li Tu presided over the urban defense. The momentum of Shijie Zhao Jun was to swear to the death to stop the Han Army in Anyang and prevent the Han army from moving forward.
The situation in the world changed a lot in a short time. First, the Han Army shrank across the board, making all countries, including Shijie Zhao, think that the Han country should enter a period of defense and stability maintenance. As a result, the painting style suddenly changed at the next moment. The Han army not only suddenly marched into Ji County, but also defeated Shi xuansuo, and the victorious Han Army directly marched into Wei county.
From the beginning to the end, all the countries made wrong judgments about the state of Han again and again. After the Han Army entered Weijun and forced Yecheng, all the countries that learned the news were stupid for a moment. They did not believe that the upper and lower levels of the state of Han would ignore the internal crisis and have a war if they did not solve the internal turmoil.
People who know the Han state should know that apart from Qingzhou and Xuzhou... And perhaps the Han territory in Eastern Liaoning, the Han state has almost no development of the rest of the territory. What needs to ensure stability is the jurisdiction of Qingzhou, Xuzhou and Eastern Liaoning. What other regions need to do is to protect more Han and Miao ethnic groups and form real control in this turmoil.
Big crises often have big opportunities. Shi Hu provoked ethnic hatred and killing, which made the originally complex situation relatively simple. Whether it was in the state of Zhao in Shijie or in the state of Han, it was divided into Hu people and non Hu people. After the division of camps became clear, many actions of the Han Army basically had less concerns.
The current situation is that the Han Miao people in all parts of the Han country can only choose to close to the Han Army, and then drift away. They will not only be attacked by the Hu people, but also face the cleaning up of the Han Army, which is very conducive to the formation of effective rule over all parts of the Han country. The Han and Miao people in the state of Zhao in Shijie hope that the Han army can go north. Waiting for the Han Army to go north, there will be a local foundation to add more help to the siege of cities and regions.
Eldest son County, with a degree of initial organization, and the participation of local giants, they boldly combined their armed forces into one, and then attacked the eldest son County, but they really attacked it.
After capturing the eldest son's County, the United giants moved their people into the city. Fei Yan also urged to close down their people. In just half a month, they not only moved their family into the city, but even closed down nearly 10000 people from the four fields.
"Why hasn't master Wang come yet?" The degree is that standing at the city gate and looking out, you can see the huts of Hu people scattered outside the city: "nearly 30000 Hu people have been surrounded outside the city. If they really attack the city, it's difficult to prevent us from less than 3000 people!"
There are more than 20000 Han and Miao people in the whole eldest son city. In fact, the proportion of 3000 armed people should be very large. Almost all powerful young people are armed, as well as the young people who do not belong to their families.
The family leaders in the eldest son county can only guess about the situation in other places. The situation in the eldest son county is getting worse and worse day by day. There are not many groups close to each other in danger, but they can't avoid being killed or eliminated.
The reason why Du and others boldly attack the county is that the Hu people in the city attack everywhere and ignore defense. Secondly, they bet that the Hu people think it is safe. Finally, the most important thing is that there is no fortress or stronghold that can accommodate several of their families. Those families that nominally unite and agree to support each other are destroyed in their own wars because they are not united. With so many lessons from the past, how should they learn a lesson.
Changzi county is located on the edge of the turbid water of zhangshui tributary, with fajiushan in the West. It is not a famous county in Chinese history, but if you want to mention Changping in the south, I'm afraid it is extremely famous.
The ethnic vendetta in Shangdang county has lasted for nearly three months. A considerable number of Han and Miao people have long died in the hands of the Hu people. Those who did not die were either united to protect themselves or hid in deep mountains and forests. To the best of our knowledge, a considerable number of people went to hide in fahatoyama not far away.
"Send someone to contact?" Feiyan, a Hu Han hybrid, began to regret his choice recently. He thought the Han army would go north soon. Unexpectedly, he could only see some fast rides of the Han country in the past nearly a month. As for the Han Army, he couldn't even see the shadow. He said: "most of those who can escape into the mountains are young and strong. It would be great if they could be integrated. At least they can form a trend of mutual protection inside and outside."
I was about to say something, but I saw a large number of Hu people approaching outside the city. From a distance, I can see that many Hu people are carrying ladders. Obviously, they are trying to attack the city?
Bursts of gongs were sounded on the city wall. The young people boarded the city wall with all kinds of weapons, and some of the city wall openings were quickly surrounded.
The eldest son county has one thing in common with many cities in the Central Plains, that is, the Hu people do not pay attention to the city at all, which leads to the city wall gap, which is very common. This group of people can win the city, just because there are many gaps in the eldest son County, but the previous convenience has now become the key.
Hu people shouted and noisy voices were advancing, but the people on the defensive side were very quiet.
Both sides are not formal armed and rarely have iron weapons. Hu people like heavy weapons and so on. On the side of the Han family, they mostly hold all kinds of farm tools.
The silence on the side guarding the city comes from self-confidence. It is a surprised silence and a hesitation about what fate will be in the future.
When the Hu people got close enough, the scattered arrows were shot from the side of the defense. Not only the arrow density was not high, but also it looked soft.
Yes, there are not many serious strong bows. For a long time, the Hu people have also restricted the hunting of the Jin people in the Central Plains. It is very difficult to gather up some bows and arrows. How can there be more extravagance.
On the contrary, the arrows shot by the Hu people are more dense and more threatening. The defensive side can only hide behind the women's wall and wait for the Hu people to set up a ladder to climb the city, and then carry out hand to hand combat.
It's urgent to know that only the Hu people on this side launch an attack. Judging by the number of Hu people, one or a few tribes can't bear it. He first communicated his guess with the leaders of several families, and then ran around to inform all the people, hoping to boost his morale.
Close combat soon took place in some gaps in the city wall. The two sides did not pay much attention to the rules and regulations. It was nothing more than crowding people and waving their weapons as much as possible. As a result, the people on both sides were crowded in a narrow area, because there was no room to show their skills. What they relied on was not extraordinary martial skills, but the courage to make up for one after falling down.
Fei Yan fought in person. Compared with some people who can only hold farm tools, he still has at least one sharp sword in his hand. He killed the enemy who climbed up the ladder again and again. He was covered by the episode and retreated to the back position after receiving a shoulder.
The offensive and defensive war in the eldest son city did not have the shadow of regular army operations, and there was no way to talk about the organization and deployment rules. After less than half an hour, the attacking Hu people took the initiative to retreat.
The whole body was covered with blood. When they met Fei Yan, both sides could see panic from each other's eyes.
"What happened to the arm?"
"Is there any injury?"
They asked about each other's situation at almost the same time. When the voice fell, they couldn't help looking at each other and smiling bitterly.
Without proper preparation and military common sense, casualty statistics can only be a rough idea.
"More than 200 people died, and nearly 700 were slightly injured." The degree was full of haze and said: "a few more times, let's......" the later ones were going to be finished, but they didn't say it.
"Now it seems that when you enter the county, you expect Master Wang to come..." Fei Yan actually felt a trace of despair: "I'm afraid we think too much."
The degree was also very heavy, but he told a news that Fei Yan didn't know before: "the Hu people are wantonly setting fire to the mountains. Hiding in the mountains is not a good choice."
They were silent and thought when the Han army would come.
