Fu Qin starts with a plan

Chapter 436 Father, How Lost Are You?

Since the founding of the Great Qin Dynasty, its external claims have always been to show its toughness.

The first emperor built the Great Wall, not all for defense.

Instead, it can advance or retreat, making Daqin invincible.

On the other hand, it is also to prevent the people at the border from being harassed by the Huns during the war, so that they can live in peace.

Facts have also proved that it is impossible for Daqin to fight all the way from the frontier.

Therefore, the role of the Great Wall is more of a frontier sentry.

Now fighting against the Xiongnu, the role of the Great Wall is even more obvious. Whether it is offensive and defensive warfare or ambushes, the Qin army is handy.

At this moment, inside the Shuofang barracks, Li Xin's tent was full of people, many generals gathered together and whispered, as if they were waiting for something.

Not long after, Li Xin walked in wearing armor with a serious expression.

"Everyone, there is news from General Han Xin that they have raided the Gongyang tribe and beat King Zuoguli away!"

Hearing Li Xin's words, the generals were startled and couldn't help but look at each other.

They had just arrived at Shuofang, and before they could make a move, Han Xin sent a good news, which was too fast.

Originally, Li Xin wanted to make a contribution to repay Ying Zheng's kindness, but he didn't expect Han Xin to be so good, which greatly exceeded his expectations.

He and Han Xin's battles are independent and not subordinate to each other.

So Han Xin did not know about the surprise attack on the Huns.

When the news came, Li Xin was in a daze.

According to the contents of the military newspaper, it took Han Xin five days to attack the Gongyang tribe and King Zuoguli.

And during these five days, three days were spent chasing the enemy.

In other words, it took Han Xin two days to defeat the Gongyang tribe and the Zuoguli King tribe, and even chased the Gongyang King, abandoning the remnant tribe, and fled alone.

This simply set a new record for Daqin cavalry raids.

It can be seen from this that the strength and combat effectiveness of the new Qin army are extraordinary.

I am afraid that even these Jiuyuan Jingqi who have been fighting the Huns at the border all the year round are not as good.

This can be seen from the post-war statistics of both sides.

According to the content of the military newspaper, in the five days before and after, most of the cavalry of the Gongyang tribe and the Zuoguliwang tribe lost more than half.

The cavalry who were directly beheaded alone did not have less than [-] cavalry, and the number of cavalry casualties of the New Qin Army did not exceed a hundred.

What kind of battle loss ratio is this?

What kind of combat power is this?
There is no doubt that this is an almost overwhelming victory for the cavalry of the New Qin Army against the cavalry of the Huns.

But such a victory is not an action planned in advance as stated in the military newspaper.

Because before Yingzheng and Zhao Kun came to Yunzhong County, they didn't know the real-time movements of the Xiongnu, including the Gongyang tribe and the Zuoguli King tribe, who had only recently moved to the west side of the curtain.

Originally, what Li Xin thought was to deal with King Zuo Xian first, and then deal with them.

As a result, Han Xin came to a siege to fight for help.

He had to shift his focus to Han Xin and ambush Zuo Xianwang in Shuofang.

Seeing that the generals were silent, Li Xin said again: "General Han asked us to cooperate in this ambush. Everyone must be fully motivated, and we must not let Zuo Xianwang escape!"

"promise."

All the generals made a promise, and immediately went to prepare.

After everyone left, Gong Sunhong took a step forward, walked up to Li Xin, and said in a low voice: "General, this Han Xin is so good, we need to be careful!"

"Huh?" Li Xin frowned, and said coldly, "What do you want to say?"

"Your Majesty and the Crown Prince came to the border for the purpose of the Xiongnu Shanyu Modun. Now that Modun has not appeared, even if we ambushed Zuo Xianwang, I am afraid it will not be as good as he wants!"

Gongsun Hong said, and said thoughtfully: "I was wondering, would the Xiongnu have other tricks?"

Hearing this, Li Xin's pupils shrank slightly, and he suddenly turned his head to look at Gong Sunhong: "What do you mean by that?"

"Some time ago, the Xiongnu attacked dozens of passes in our army. The purpose was obvious. It was to confuse us and make us ignore it. In the end, we were caught off guard!"

"But now, the Gongyang tribe and the Zuoguli king tribe have been defeated successively, but the Xiongnu Shanyu has no response. This is not normal at all!"

"You mean, the Huns have backhands?" Li Xin narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Maybe, maybe not"

Gong Sunhong said, thought for a while, and then said: "If there is, then why did King Zuoxian know that there is a fraud, why did he come to rescue? If not, why didn't Xiongnu Chanyu show up?"

"This"

Li Xin hesitated for a moment, and said somewhat uncertainly: "Maybe it's because the news hasn't reached the court of the Xiongnu, and Mao Dun didn't know about it, so his reaction was a bit slow."

"However, the speed at which the Xiongnu sent orders did not need to be slowed down by me. They galloped on the grassland unimpeded. Five days should be enough!"

Gong Sunhong continued to be skeptical.

Li Xin didn't know how to answer for a moment.

At this moment, a voice suddenly came from outside the tent: "Report to General, the Xiongnu cavalry raided all the tribes of the Da Yue Clan!"

"what!?"

Li Xin and Gongsun Hong were startled suddenly, and couldn't help but secretly say that it was terrible.

After reading the military newspaper, Li Xin said with a complicated expression, "I never thought that Maodun would be so good that he would make such a fuss!"

He originally thought that Modu's plan was Qin, or to recover all the Huns' homelands occupied by Qin.

But it never occurred to him that Maodun would temporarily change his plan and attack Da Yuezhi.

This is real and unpredictable.

"General Han Xin is in the Damu area, how did they attack the Dayue Clan?" Gongsun Hong asked with some doubts.

The Da Yuezhi was in the middle of the Qin State and the Western Regions, and the Xiongnu occupied the road leading to the Western Regions because they invaded and occupied part of the Da Yuezhi's territory.

Although the Da Yue Clan is still in their old place, it is much smaller than before.

Back then, Wang Li suppressed the development of the Da Yue Clan in order to make the Da Yue Clan surrender, which was equivalent to concentrating them in captivity.

Now that the Huns are attacking the Dayue clan, it is difficult for the Dayue clan to resist without the help of the Qin army.

More importantly, how did the Xiongnu bypass Han Xin?
"I think it should be Wusun!" Li Xin put down the military newspaper, stared at the map in front of him, stared at the map for a long time, and then said seriously: "The current King Wusun is Maodun's righteous hunter!"

"The general meant that the Xiongnu used Wusun to attack the Great Yuezhi from top to bottom?"

"Judging from the information so far, it is very likely to be so!"

"That"

Gongsun Hong hesitated for a moment and said, "How should we deal with it?"

"Notify His Majesty and the Crown Prince first, and then send a letter to Han Xin to see how he handles it."

Li Xin said, thought for a while, and added: "If he can't handle it, leave it to us!"

"The general is wise!"

Gong Sunhong bowed his hands and said with a smile: "No one should rob us this time, Your Majesty can't be far away!"

"Ha ha."

Li Xin smiled noncommittally, then waved his hands and said, "Let's go."

"promise."

Gongsun Hong promised, and quickly withdrew from the military tent.

Li Xin watched him leave, suppressed his smile, squeezed the military newspaper tightly, and snorted coldly, "A mere Xiongnu dares to play tactics in front of our Huaxia clan, it's just like playing tricks!"

Not long after, the news reached Yunzhong County.

When Zhao Kun and Ying Zheng learned that the Xiongnu attacked the Dayue Clan, they were also surprised.

In their impression, the Xiongnu should not have such tactics in the Central Plains.

It is obviously a strategy to change midway.

Although Mao Dun is very talented, he still lacks the ability to temporarily change strategies.

So Zhao Kun quickly judged that this was the idea of ​​someone from the Central Plains.

The main one is a Huns, playing with the Huaxia clan's art of war, how weird he thinks.

"Father, what do you think of this matter?" Zhao Kun held the military newspaper and asked Ying Zheng in front of him.

Ying Zheng stared at the map with a pensive expression on his face. After a while, he slowly said: "The plan remains the same, and the original plan to ambush King Zuo Xian is still in place!"

"According to the original plan?"

Zhao Kun was stunned for a moment, and said with some doubts: "Father means to give up Da Yueshi?"

"Since the Da Yue Clan has surrendered to our Qin State, how can there be any reason to give up?"

"That"

Seeing that Zhao Kun still had doubts on his face, Ying Zheng smiled meaningfully, "He will make a lot of noise, so why don't we close the door and beat dogs?"

"Close the door and beat the dog?"

Zhao Kun tilted his head: "Father wants to besiege the Hun cavalry who attacked the Dayue Clan in the hinterland of the Dayue Clan and annihilate them one by one?"

"Not bad!"

Ying Zheng nodded, then pointed to the map in front of him, and said, "Look here, and here! These two places are enough to block all their escape routes!"

Hearing Ying Zheng's words, Zhao Kun looked up and saw Ying Zheng pointing to Longxi and Qiang respectively.

"Han Xin cut off the main route for them to retreat from Wusun. Longxi cooperated with the Dayue Clan to attack them, and Wang Li encircled them from three sides in the Qiang area. Even if they were measured, they would not be able to escape!" Ying Zheng said with a smile.

"Wang Li?"

Zhao Kun was stunned; "When did the father send Wang Li to Qiang?"

He really didn't know about it.

He had seen Wang Li once since Wang Li came back from South County, and now that he came to Yunzhong County, he hadn't seen Wang Li for almost half a year.

Ying Zheng smiled and said, "Didn't Wang Li be named King of Pinyang by Hu Hai? According to my Daqin legal system, it cannot be separated, but I promised Wang Ben that as long as Wang Li makes meritorious service, he will be recognized as king." Jazz!"

"There is such a thing, but what does it have to do with the king leaving the Qiang land?"

"It's not difficult to admit Wang Li's title, but that old man Wang Ben asked me for a princely fief, do you think I can give it?"

"Uh"

Zhao Kun scratched his head and said weakly: "Yes, I can't give it."

In fact, in his mind, it doesn't matter what the fiefdom is. Anyway, he also agreed to give the Wang family a big fiefdom.

However, what was in mind at the time was overseas fiefdoms.

But Ying Zheng said with an expression of 'come and praise me': "So I sealed off part of the Qiang land to the Wang family."

"???"

Zhao Kun was stunned, thinking how hurt you are, Father!

Although those Qiang people surrendered to Qin, they are all barbarians. You let the Wang family manage those barbarians? !
It is conceivable that Wang Ben knew about this, and he was probably going to lie dead again!

"Heh, heh."

Zhao Kun smiled awkwardly, not knowing what to say.

Ten days later, as expected, the battle report came again.

However, this time it was not the battle report from Dayue's side, but the battle report from Li Xin's side.

After the Xiongnu cavalry raided the Dayue clan, the Jiuyuan Army remained unmoved and set up ambush Zuo Xianwang according to the original plan.

As expected, the fleeing King Gongyang did not return to the court of the Huns, but ran to the Zuoxian King for help.

King Zuoxian had a good personal relationship with King Gongyang, so he responded quickly and led the army all the way south.

But neither King Zuoxian nor King Gongyang knew that the Qin army had an ambush, so while Li Xin's 20 Yuan army was waiting, King Zuoxian appeared outside Shuofang City.

Before he could gain a firm foothold, he was attacked by the Nine Plains Army.

Soon, the two sides fought fiercely forty miles outside Shuofang City.

This time King Zuoxian brought [-] Huns cavalry, and the Jiuyuan Army had [-] cavalry alone.

In addition, the Jiuyuan Army has been fighting the Huns all year round and is well-equipped, even infantry, equipped with strong bows and crossbows, and under the condition of taking the lead.

As soon as the two sides started fighting, Zuo Xianwang's troops fell into a defeat.

Whether it was King Zuo Xian who rushed to help, or King Gongyang who was rushed to help, they never expected that the Qin army would deploy so many soldiers and horses in Shuofang.

What's more, Han Xin, who beat the Ram King to flee, disappeared.

Seeing that he was caught off guard by Li Xin, Zuo Xianwang became a little anxious.

He went off to command the army himself, and finally stabilized the morale of the army, and found that the Qin army's riding skills were better than his own cavalry.

Especially the weird horse equipment and riding and shooting ability, which are almost on par with the Huns.

The innate advantages of the Huns were offset by the novel equipment of the Qin army.

Facing the bow and crossbow of the Qin army, King Zuo Xian had no chance of winning at all, so he chose to avoid the edge for the time being.

After leaving thousands of corpses, the remaining 3 Huns began to retreat towards the royal court.

That's it.

An overwhelming ambush ended easily.

However, Qin Jun's pursuit of Zuo Xianwang did not stop.

Li Xin planned to take advantage of the victory to pursue and sent his deputy general Gong Sunhong and his nephew Li Zhu to lead [-] original cavalry to pursue in the direction of Wang Ting.

The remaining Nine Plains Army also followed up and started chasing wolves.

So far, all the content in the battle report is over.

There is no latest news about the pursuit of Li Xin and Gong Sunhong.

But taking the battle of Shuofang as an example, it was undoubtedly another absolute victory for the Qin army.

"Good job!"

Looking at the battle report in his hand, Zhao Kun couldn't help but applaud.

Ying Zheng smiled and said nothing.

Obviously, his decision was correct.

The Battle of Shuofang has changed the current war situation.

The specific number of casualties was not counted in the battle report.

It's just that when describing Zuo Xianwang's flight, he said "there are countless corpses of Hun soldiers".

That is to say, the casualties of King Zuoxian in the Battle of Shuofang were at least over [-] people.

Regardless of the significance and strategic value of this war, the number of casualties like this is definitely more exciting than the big screen battle.

Zhao Kun is very happy.

In front of Ying Zheng, he took out the map of Mobei.

According to the information displayed in the battle report, look for the route of King Zuoxian's escape on the map.

In the direction of Liaodong, that is the lair of King Zuo Xian.

Obviously, King Zuoxian wanted to return to his territory, gather more Hun tribes, and make a comeback.

It's a pity that Li Xin and Gong Sunhong are chasing after him.

Relying on stirrups and horseshoes, the current cavalry of the Qin Army has a speed that does not lose to the cavalry of the Huns.

In the pursuit along the way, there will be inevitable battles, I'm afraid Zuo Xianwang will suffer some casualties.

Even if King Zuo Xian fled back to his base camp, Li Xin in the rear would bring the army to his territory.

By the time.

The most likely result is that King Zuoxian summoned the tribe and was unable to fight against the Qin army, so he had to ask for help from the great Shanyu Maodun.

Well, there is a feeling of hitting the small ones and coming to the big ones.
