The scorching sun shines, the dust on the earth is diffuse, and the cry of killing the enemy and ourselves is accompanied by the playing of horseshoes.
The flag will be displayed only when the knight gallops, and it will look dull when it is fixed. That was because there was no wind, which led to the dust that could not be dispersed after the cavalry on both sides stepped on the surface.
Ran min stood high on the body of a nest car, holding binoculars in both hands to observe the fighting in the distance. His face was covered with fine beads formed by sweat. The ears of his cheeks and both sides of the bridge of his nose were all the way down.
According to the traditional saying, it's hard to imagine the heat on a dog day. It's hard to bear the heat even in the shade, let alone in the open air.
Autumn has come. Ran min led his troops to attack Yanmen county. At first, there was no war. Shi Jie Zhao Jun of Yanmen quickly gave up his Garrison and ran to the side of Tuoba generation army to join.
The battle in Yanmen county was after the Han Army approached Mayi and before the war, Tuoba shiyijian sent envoys to ask the Han army not to get close to the border of Tuoba Dai state on the grounds that it was safe before the Han Dynasty. Otherwise, once a misunderstanding occurred, it would start a war.
Ran min didn't have any nonsense at all. He killed the messenger of Tuoba Dai state and asked the messenger's entourage to bring a word to Tuoba Shi Yijian: don't be blind and hypocritical about those who have nothing. Fight if you want to fight, and roll if you don't fight.
What does Tuoba shiyijian look like when he gets ran min's reply? Ran min doesn't know. The fact of the situation is that the two sides are at war.
The battle between the Han Army and the Tuoba generation Army started with cavalry. The terrain around Mayi is flat and will be a good cavalry battlefield. After the war, the cavalry of both sides came and went to fight on the vast plain. However, generally speaking, the troops invested by both sides in the war are not very large. The largest fighting is 8000 Han army against 20000 Tuoba Dai army and Shijie Zhao army, usually thousands against thousands.
"Dai Jun can still fight." Ran min put down his telescope, pulled his collar and said, "some of the guys in the hands of the Dai army are the same as our standard weapons."
The state of Han and the state of Tuoba maintained a honeymoon period of nearly three years. During this period, Liu Yan exchanged a lot of horses, cattle, sheep, leather, tendons and other things with weapons in order to let the state of Tuoba hold murongyan. Should there be twenty or thirty thousand weapons in the past?
The body of the nest car lowered slowly in the mechanical creak. As soon as ran min got off the car, he took a bucket of water from his own soldiers. After taking off his helmet, he "clattered" and shouted, "happy!"
The weather in the three volt season is really too hot. It's not only hot, but also stuffy. This is the reason why although the Han Dynasty started a war, the scale of the war could not be fought.
To tell the truth, the weather is too hot, even if you don't move, you can be greasy and sticky like boiling oil. A little activity is sweating. Vigorous exercise will cause a lack of oxygen. It's really not a time for fighting.
The horn was sounded, and the Tuoba generation army with extremely messy clothes began to distance from the Han army. They withdrew again, and the Han Army gave up after only a short distance.
"Looking for robes!" Liu Rui untied the string, took off his helmet and gasped heavily. Because he felt that there was not enough oxygen, his voice was not only hoarse but also small: "the injured should be carried down for treatment first, and the body should be loaded and transported back."
The fighting is stopped, but the dust and smoke have not dispersed yet. At a glance, it is difficult to see what is going on in the distance. To clean up the gap in the battlefield, troops need to be on guard outside.
For a while, Liu Rui poured almost half of the water bag. He finally felt better. He looked around. There were busy robes around. He listened carefully and didn't hear a lot of cavalry activities.
In the battle of cold weapons, in fact, many soldiers will not be killed in the fight. They are seriously injured and temporarily lose control of their body functions... That is, the so-called transient shock. If unconscious soldiers are not treated in time, they basically die of excessive bleeding in coma.
In every battle of the Han Army, there is no way to retreat. After winning, the battlefield will be cleaned. The most important thing is to check any Han sergeant and soldiers, and those who have breath will be transported back to the camp for treatment.
Liu Rui has dismounted and walked for a few steps. Seeing paoze lying on the ground, he will also go over to check his pulse. If he finds the injured, he immediately calls his hands. Seeing a lot of war horses dead on the battlefield, he shouted: "the body of war horses will be taken back at last."
In the battlefield after the fighting, apart from some soldiers busy, some people in gray robes are also active.
Those who wear grey robes have a bamboo basket on their back, which contains a lot of gadgets, such as bandages, needles, threads, water and so on. When they encounter their wounded soldiers, they will sew the wounds and bandage them.
It's stitching and bandaging. Medical instruments are sterilized by boiling water in advance, but there is no alcohol disinfection for the time being. All because Liu Yan can't... Er, wine making, let alone distillation technology. He is an ordinary person. Living in modern times, he can enjoy some scientific and technological achievements, but he doesn't study how to do it. How to use it and how to produce it are two different things. However, he is a king. He can't let the following people keep experimenting. He is already in progress.
If you insist on a title, those people in gray robes can be called medical guards, but the Han Army are respected as lay people. The origin of these people is the medical arms in Liu Yan's system. The military carries out special training behind them. The medical soldiers of the system and the group of people trained behind them must appear in the battlefield after fighting one after another.
Cleaning up the battlefield can save our own casualties. In fact, counting the war results is also a convenience, which can more intuitively calculate the loss degree of both sides.
After the battle, some black spots appeared on the low hills not far away. They were Tuoba Gu and Tuoba Shijun who arrived at the front line in person.
"Three thousand people went to war, but only more than one thousand were withdrawn." Tuoba Shijun is a dress with bare chest and belly. It looks like a piece of fat and smooth on his belly, which makes his muscles look very strong. He narrowed his eyes and looked at the distance: "I can't tell how many war results have been achieved."
Tuoba Gu took out a long strip from his arms, carefully untied the silk on the outer layer, picked up a single telescope inside and leaned over to his eyes for observation.
Tuo Bagu begged Liu Yan for the single telescope when he went to Linzi last time. Liu Yan didn't give it at first. Later, he fought with his sister, Liu Yan's concubine, and spent a thousand war horses to get it. Tuoba on behalf of the whole country, that is, the single telescope in his hand. Tuoba shiyijian hinted several times that he didn't give it.
When tuobagu was monitoring the north in the north, he relied on the single telescope in his hand several times to observe the enemy first, be able to arrange first, and make a good judgment before the enemy approached. It is clear that it is a "sharp weapon of the country".
The Hu people, except that a few noble people have clothes made of cloth, wear animal fur all year round, mostly sheepskin. They stay in the grassland where the temperature difference between day and night is great and the temperature is relatively low. There is no problem wearing them like this. When they go south out of the grassland, it becomes a trouble.
In history, many Hu people were able to invade and occupy the south, but those Hu people did not occupy. They were worried about counterattack if they did not occupy. In fact, they could not adapt to the climate. The Hu people who were able to go south and occupy the territory of the Central Plains Dynasty, except for the decline of the Central Plains forces during the period of the five Hu chaos, the rest were ethnic groups who mastered production technology, and their productivity was based on the abduction of the Han people.
"The king has planned to withdraw temporarily." Tuoba Gu took away the binoculars with pity, carefully put them back into his arms again, and said, "King Yan has sent an invitation to the kings to join the alliance. The place is at the former site of langju Xu mountain."
Now there is no wolf in Xushan. After the name of that place has been changed again and again, it is now called Wolf mountain, which belongs to the territory of Rouran tribal alliance.
"Countries want to unite against the big men, but they are extremely afraid of each other. It's not appropriate to go to any country." Tuoba Shijun nodded: "it's really suitable to choose the territory of those barbarians to join the alliance."
The Hu people are now divided into grades. Some Hu people who have occupied the central plains are recognized as superior. Then, the farther away from the Central Plains, the more they are regarded as earth buns who have never seen the world. They also look down on each other.
Of course, the once superior Jie people have been weakened by the continuous attack of the Han Army, and their momentum can be said to be declining day by day. However, if the tiger power still exists, they will still be respected. If the Jie people don't reset their position, all Hu forces will be happy to beat the water dogs.
Now, Murong Yan is recognized as the strongest force of the Hu people, and Tuoba Dai is the second. Fu Hong, for example, can't lose the number. Zhang Liangguo is not counted in by the Hu people. The only thing they agree with is that no matter how strong the Rouran tribal alliance is, it is also a Tu baozi, and the other Tu baozi is the Ding zero ethnic group of donggaoche and xigaoche.
Langshan is a very suitable place for the alliance, not only because it is within the territory of the Rouran tribal alliance, but also because of the strength of the Rouran tribal alliance with Tuoba Dai state, Murong Yan state, Zhang Liang state and Fu Hong. The residual forces of the Jie nationality have no hatred.
In addition, Langshan is very convenient. It is located in the north of Tuoba Dai country, the northwest of Murong Yan country and the northeast of Zhang Liang country. No one needs to go through each other's places. They can directly enter the potential range of Rouran tribal alliance from their own territory without fear of being plotted when passing through each other's territory.
"The Hun tribes still refused to participate in the league?" Tuoba Gu frowned and then smiled grimly: "those fools should cut them first after waiting for the alliance."
"Those bastards naively thought that the big man would let them go?" Tuoba Shijun was sneering: "if there is no blood, will there be more retarded children?"
The Xiongnu tribes mentioned by tuobagu are in Hetao area. At present, they are divided into seven relatively large tribes. When Shijie Zhao did not show the trend of inevitable defeat, they sent troops to accept Shijie's command and recalled their own tribes after Dingxiang was besieged.
Liu Yuan's young daughter surrendered to the state of Han. After Liu's surrender, someone sent to the Xiongnu tribes. As Liu Yuan's blood, she advised the Xiongnu tribes not to be enemies with the state of Han, saying that they should learn from the coexistence model of Han and southern Xiongnu.
Of course, Liu Yan didn't make any commitment to the Liu family or the Xiongnu tribes. The center of the Han state was happy that the Xiongnu tribes were alone, and even began to provoke the Xiongnu tribes to fight against the remaining Jie nationality.
The Xiongnu tribes inhabiting Hetao area are actually somewhat complicated. There are not many real Xiongnu people, but more mixed races. The Hu people of all ethnic groups call them "Tiefu".
Tiefu has many meanings in the Altaic language family. At first, it means that the father is Hun, but the mother is Xianbei, such a hybrid. Later, the people of the Central Plains married a woman of the Hu people. The Hu people call the people of the Central Plains also Tiefu, which has a layer of interpretation of "Hu people's son-in-law".
At present, four of the seven Xiongnu tribes are headed by Hu's son-in-law. There are a considerable number of Hu Han and Miao ethnic groups in these four tribes.
Generally speaking, the Xiongnu, as a nation, has existed in name only at the present stage. Even they are at a loss. They are not considered a member of the Xiongnu. If they are attributed to the "Han", there is no so-called Han nationality now. The Han nationality will not be "established" until Yang Jian replaces Yuwen and Zhou. After that, the Han nationality can be regarded as an ethnic group. Before, they used "Central Plains" and "Zhuxia" "Chinese" and "Xia people".
Liu Yuan's young daughter, Liu Shi, knows current affairs very well. She tries her best to "link" her identity with Liu Yan. It's impossible to talk about Xiongnu. It's more reliable to say that she has pre Han blood. Apart from some names, she is also doing what she can do, including fighting for the Xiongnu tribes in Hetao, which can be regarded as a small help to the Han country.
Shijie Zhao still has a ruling system in Shuozhou. Xie AI led his army to pursue Shi Xuan. Only 40000 Han troops went to Shuozhou. The Huns jumped out and couldn't get along with Shijie Zhao. More or less, Xie AI got some help.
"In less than a month, close to 20000 people..." Tuoba Shijun looked unlucky: "Shi bin, that incompetent guy can't break through the siege to meet."
"Shi bin can't get out." In fact, Tuoba Gu didn't know what situation Shi bin was in. He was saying a fact: "we hurried South and didn't receive Shi bin at the first time. Ran Min has led the army to arrive. Now is far from the time for the great generation to fight with the Great Han."
Unless there is a sudden outbreak of conflict between countries, they should accumulate strength and make the most secure preparations before the war. No one is sure when the decisive battle will break out.
"First meet the league and see what rules the kings can come up with." Tuoba Gu is already pulling the reins and turning the horse's head: "for Da Dai, it's better to turn the spear to the north and cut those barbarians."
Tuoba Shijun was reluctant to admit it, but he knew that what his uncle said was correct. It was no different from suicidal to challenge the Han country only with the strength of Tuoba on behalf of the country.
