Chapter One Two Six The Strategy of the Huns

On the white and saline ground, a large army is marching hard. When the wind blows, white saline is wrapped up and falls on the red cloak of the soldiers. Occasionally, debris falls into the eyes and makes people cry. Changliu.

Everyone's eyes are red and red, even if the face is covered with fine yarn, the tiny salt and alkali dust is still permeable.

Northwest, desolate, and lonely.

This saline-alkali beach, which is as long as a hundred miles, has no vitality at all, and even the birds in the sky are reluctant to fly across the sky.

"This is the Great Laochi ... an extinct place among the Xiongnu population."

Yun Lang jumped from You Chunma's back, grabbed a handful of saline-alkali soil, and just held it for a while, a scorching wave came from his palm.

This is the sweat of the palm reacts with the salt and alkali.

Cao Xiang carefully inspected his horseshoes, and when he saw that the sackcloth on the bread was still strong, without any leaks, he stood up and said, "Speed ​​up the march and get out of this saline land earlier."

Yun Lang shook his head and said, "Go slowly, you will get more dust if you move faster, and you will suffer even more. Look at the horseshoe marks that the cavalry walked over there. It's time to go and get sick of them!"

Cao Xiang nodded and said: "It must be that, except for us, only the army that went to the disease would take this path.

After all, it is much closer here, and there is no need to turn over the mountain. "

"The Houhoujun collects the saline on the ground until the empty grain truck is filled up, remember not to enter the water."

"What do you want these things to do?"

"Self-guaranteed."

"Don't we have gunpowder?"

"Don't use that thing if you can't use it. After using it, the consequences are serious. It is said that your majesty has secretly verified the gunpowder Guo Jie used.

If we take out more powerful gunpowder, your majesty does n’t want to get a good night ’s sleep, nor do we want to live a good life. "

"Why is everything related to His Majesty in the end?" Cao Xiang couldn't figure it out.

"Because only His Majesty can suppress us, it is difficult to describe our relationship with His Majesty.

If I were forced to say a descriptive word, I thought these four words of symbiotic relationship were appropriate. "

Cao Xiang thinks too. The Great Han Kingdom needs a wise emperor, and the Great Han Kingdom also needs a group of capable officials.

The wise emperor needs capable courtiers, so as to check and balance the world. If the emperor is full of wine bags, even if the emperor is capable again, he can hit a few nails with iron all over his body?

The same capable courtiers also need to think that the relatively wise emperor, if the emperor can't tell right from wrong, this country will be finished.

Unless-someone can help the emperor make the right decision.

In the past, Cao Xiang only thought of the first two points, and he never thought about the latter point. However, when he walked in the Jedi today, his thoughts became unavoidable.

Hundreds of miles of large waterlogging pond, Yun Lang's army walked for two days.

If the army alone, it is estimated that the saline-alkali land can be walked out in a day. Unfortunately, Yunlang ’s army is not a combat army. To be precise, it is a large army that specializes in providing food and grass for Huo Qubing.

Huo went to fight with the disease, and he did not like to use civilian husbands. He insisted that the generals who sent those who had no military training to the battlefield were all cowards!

Fighting has always been a matter of the army. It is an extremely shameless act to drive away the civilians as death squads to consume the enemy's weapons.

Therefore, he can pretend to be simple, and lead his all-cavalry troops to the border at a rate of two hundred a day and five hundred a day.

He was very addicted, but it was hard to die for the officials who provided him with heavy burdens. The emperor was helpless, and then the generals who had to manage the food supply of the three-way army were sent to specially serve the generals.

After Yunlang's heavy team walked out of the big waterlogging pond, it began to rest on the edge of the Heihe River. It was still three days!

Li Yong, who served as a former military captain, was very sensible and did not know where some Qiang people were captured, so that the original tight-guarded General Guard barracks suddenly had a lot of new staff available.

There is no shortage of food and grass in the army. However, the food that these Qiang people can eat is stolen from their tribe, and there is no problem in a short time.

As for the long-term plan, Li Yong never thought about it. The road ahead will only be more difficult to walk than the big flood pond. Without those who blaze the road ahead, the army will only move forward more slowly.

The Huns can't wait for Huo to get sick to kill them on the spot, so this battle is definitely a guerrilla warfare, a chase war, and it is difficult to fight a annihilation war. This is not only Yun Lang thought, but the emperor himself thought so.

In this way, the war will become a protracted war, which is definitely a great test for the Great Han Dynasty, but it is a kind of torture for Yun Lang.

If there is no suitable path, Yun Lang can imagine how sad the future will be.

Yun Lang's foot stepped on the digging mountain pass, and there was a faint smell of corpses on the construction site.

He didn't want to blame Li Shen who was responsible for opening the road too much. He was just trying his best to complete his military affairs and take people to death as a matter of course. There is nothing to say.

"Throw away the body as far as possible in the future."

Yun Lang was very worried about causing the plague.

Li Shen clenched his fists: "Tomorrow the mountain road will be opened to ensure that the carriage can pass safely."

Yun Lang patted Li Shen's shoulder and left the mountain pass. The army still had to move forward. If it could not reach Yangguan within 30 days, the army there would be hungry.

If the army becomes hungry, the only way is to rob.

Robbery is a way for the army to survive, and it is generally used on the enemy. If there is no enemy nearby, it will be the people who are unlucky.

After the mountain pass, in a mountain not far away, a large group of crows and vultures are robbing food, making a lot of noise.

Li Shen threw a stone, the crows, and the vultures flew with a thud. The fat vultures were unwilling to give up their food, so they crouched on the tree trunk with new shoots, and looked at the army in front of them in a sinister way.

Su Zhi came out of the mountain in thick linen clothes and a thick mask. The deerskin gloves on her hands were full of strange smell, but the Qiang caregivers who followed her were carrying small porcelain bottles. This should be the sample that Su Zhi just took out.

"Are you going to place the dead?" Yun Lang's tone was a little tough.

Su Zhi wore a mask and said in a loud voice: "No, the corpses there have basically become bones and have no value to look at. There was a fresh corpse of colored eyes just now. I took some tissue samples and compared them after preparing for freezing. "

Probably feeling the unhappiness of her husband, Su Zhi hurriedly took the group of caregivers and ran away.

Wherever they went, the soldiers all evaded in horror.

"If there are corpses in the future, let them burn."

Yun Lang hurriedly ordered Li Shen and hurried to the former army.

Sui Yue's tent was on the side of the road, but only Huo Guang was inside. When Huo Guang saw the master came, he followed his finger to the left, and Yun Lang walked in the direction of Huo Guang.

There is a small stream behind the hill. Sui Yue actually sat quietly on the edge of the stream and fished. The stream was very clear, and formed a small water pool at the foot of the mountain. It looked dark at first glance. This water pool should be very deep.

Yun Lang had just approached, and a few sturdy soldiers surrounded Sui Yue.

Sui Yue smiled after seeing Yun Lang back: "I have a problem today, so I won't be in the account anymore. I also ask the general to forgive me."

"Do not eat outside food in the military, this is an iron rule, long history must be remembered in mind."

Yun Lang immediately dumped the fish that Sui Yue had just caught back to the water pool ~ lightnovelpub.net ~ The soldiers surrounding Sui Yue already had an angry look on their faces, but Sui Yue stood up and said: "Why ?

A certain family still does not understand why the military should not drink raw water, eat outside food, or allow private contact with locals. "

Yun Lang said faintly: "Because I would have just received the report from the rider, it was said that the rotten cattle and sheep corpses were found upstream of this stream, and the human corpses were also found."

Sui Yue heard the words suddenly changed color, the first time he put his fingers in his throat to induce vomiting, he didn't eat the fish, he used the tea brewed by this stream to drink for two full hours.

After vomiting for a long time, Sui Yue found that he seemed to have nothing to vomit, and stood up straight under the help of the guard: "So, are there Huns here?"

Yun Lang nodded and said, "The land here is empty, and our army has too few people to take care of it.

The Huns can naturally come in. I hope that from now on, you will stay in the barracks, no matter what, you must not go in and out at will. "
