I am a nobleman in Spring and Autumn

Chapter 358
"I have more than two thousand riders in Loufan, and I have more than a thousand riders in Daiguo; there are more than a thousand riders in the camp, and there are more than five thousand infantry."

"You can ride a gallop in the realm of Loufan and join me in Daiguo Yanmen Mountain."

"How many soldiers does the Zhao family have? More than [-] soldiers?"

"The Zhao family migrated to the generation, but not all of the generations surrendered, you can make them."

At present, the Zhao family's basic inventory is about [-] people, and the ability to assemble an army of about [-] people is actually related to their panic.

Most of the Zhao people who were able to escape from the Jin Kingdom were young and strong, and the old and weak could not keep up even if they didn't give up on purpose.

So, with a population of 7, it is absolutely reasonable for the Zhao family to assemble [-] troops for combat, but the ratio of men to women within the Zhao family is very unhealthy.

Zhi Xuwu got the order from Zhiyao and acted immediately, first figure out how many cavalry the Zhi clan has in Loufan and in the country of Dai, the headquarters hurry up to prepare for the battle, and don't plan to wait for the reinforcements mobilized from "Xianyu" to go north.

In other areas except Zhongshan Kingdom and Qiuyou, many fast horses were galloping. They arrived at a certain place with orders. All local people who could ride horses and fight were within the scope of recruitment. "Fenyang" assembled, then went north to enter Lou's sphere of influence, and then went to the upper reaches of Xiushui, north of Yanmen, to wait for further orders.

"This time I can gather about [-] cavalry, and I have two 'divisions' of soldiers available." Zhi Xuwu knew that the number of troops was a bit small, so it must be more dependent on the choice of terrain.

Yang Hu said: "Yanmen is the place where the Zhao family must pass through when they move north. You know this, but how can the Zhao family not know? Now, the Zhao family must have heavy soldiers guarding Yanmen. Our army is few, so we can send The heart is frightened, slowing down the migration speed of the Zhao clan."

Just now, Zhi Xuwu meant to wait for more troops to be assembled before attacking the main roads of Yanmen, thinking that it would be able to win in one fell swoop.

Apparently, Yang Hu had a different opinion, and believed that it would be the best way to create tension first to make Zhao Shi fearful, and to interfere with Zhao's migration.

That Yanmen is a synonym for terrain, and it is not an official geographical name for the time being.

The reason why it is called Yanmen must have its basis. When you go there, you can see a mountain in the local area. It looks like a wild goose flying high, but there is a water system that is also the curvature of the wild goose formation. There are mountains from time to time. There are wild geese flying out, the mountain is also called Yanmen Mountain, and the water is called Yanmen Water.

There is still a primitive ecology over there, about a hundred miles to the southeast is the location of "Dai", the capital of Dai Kingdom.

The Dai State is a country composed of miscellaneous barbarians. There are people who rely on nomadism, farming, hunting, and gathering. It means that the vast majority of Dai people live in no fixed place. Even if an outsider takes over Dai Guojun and his ministers, the targets that can be attacked immediately are very limited.

For example, this time Zhao Wuxie took down Dai's monarchs and ministers at once, and there were only seven targets they could attack immediately, including "Dai", with a total population of about [-] to [-]?

There are only so many people living in the Dai Kingdom, and each of them is the target of Zhao Wuxie. As for those Dai people in the nomadic state, try to subdue them if they can meet them. If you can’t subdue them, you must not waste time.

Yang Hu said: "Zhao Wuji falsely passed on the order of Emperor Yong, and tricked the generation to follow him to move north. If the generation does not know, our army arrived at Yanmen is the day when the Zhao family fled in panic."

To be honest, Ji Seo Oh doesn't like Yang Hu.

how to say?It's not that Yang Hu is incompetent, on the contrary, he has a strong ability to handle affairs, but he has a mouth that can't speak, and he can say a few words to anyone he meets.

It's not that Zhixuwu couldn't accept the correct opinion, no matter how uncomfortable he felt, he still felt that Yanghu's opinion was more correct, and gave the relevant order with a stinky face.

In terms of time, the season is approaching autumn.

Right now, Zhiyao has set off from "Ye" and is on her way back to "Xintian".

At the same time, nearly five months have passed since Zhao Wuxie killed Dai Junyong.

That is to say, Zhiyao received Zhao's abnormality, and then took related actions, and the delay in the middle was about four months.

During that period of time, the free month was naturally the time for Zhishi to gather his troops.

After all, the transmission of news takes time, and the assembly of the army also takes time. It is really not a one-order order.

Yan Fei was one of those who received the assembly order. It took him forty days from departure to arrival at the assembly point. There were more than 800 cavalry in his team, all of whom were from the old land of Changdi.

When Changdi fell under the rule of the Zhi family, it was regarded as a vacant state in the early days, and then the animal husbandry industry was slowly developed.

Yan Fei is not an out-and-out Jin person, but a Di person in terms of ethnicity, but he became a member of the Zhi family at a very young age. Thanks to being the heir of the leader, he later became a member of the "scholar" class member.

There are not many people who are in a situation like Yan Fei's. It's more that the Zhi family has created a new channel for advancement. What they have in common is that they have long forgotten about Chang Di and what they remember is that they are members of the Zhi family.

This is nothing more than the fact that Changdi's culture lost to Zhuxia's culture, or that the backward civilization was eliminated by the advanced civilization.

This process of elimination was carried out very naturally, there was not much blood in it, it was simply that the blank culture was filled, and then he grew up in that environment, during which he felt the strength of being a member of the Chi Clan, and because The various benefits brought by Zhishi's strength.

Ordinary people don't have much national feelings, what they care about is the quality of life.

What Yanfei knows is that there are no old people talking about their former glory or anything, there are only endless sufferings, it is difficult to have enough food, there is no security, and other negative stories.

those sufferings?Yan Fei has never met any of them. On the contrary, she enjoyed all kinds of majesty as a member of the Zhi family during the period of accepting Fu.

Therefore, it is good to have the presence of the elderly. The elderly tell about the sufferings of the past, so that the new generation knows how happy it is to be a member of Zhishi.

"Is that Master Xu Wu?"

On the other side, "adult" has been used to address superiors since ancient times. The spoken language may be different, but the meaning is absolutely the same.After there are words, no matter what the pronunciation is, writing in words will be the two fonts of "adult".

Because of the use of language, groups whose ancestors have been Jin people for generations can tell which people's ancestors are of other races. The reason is of course that the language system of each place is different. The same pronunciation or characters are used, and some differences are still spoken. Reflected.

However, I can't see any discrimination within Zhishi because of someone's origin.

At present, the Zhi family has a total population of about 250 million, of which about 180 million are out-and-out Jin people, and most of the rest are from Wei, Qi, and Changdi, and there are even Chu, Wu, and others who were captured because of the defeat. Zheng people, Qin people, and so on.

In fact, even nobles don’t have a strong sense of national belonging, let alone require ordinary people to have any sense of family and country. They settled in Zhishi, and being able to go to war means that they have obtained the key to the upward channel. What they want is to pass It's better, there's no time to engage in conflicts due to differences in regions or origins.

They have already arrived at the southern plain of Yanmen Mountain, so far they haven't had a single contest with the Zhao family.

Because there is no relationship with the city at present, the place must not have an official name. The place where Zhi's army was stationed was called "Pingyin" after the Warring States Period.

It was not the first time that Yan Fei had seen a big shot from the Zhi family, and had received gifts many times. She was fortunate enough to meet Zhi Yao herself twice, and it was regarded as the happiest moment in her life.

The reason why Zhiyao still needs to add "myself" is that Di people like Yan Fei have the custom of carving wood carvings for worship, and they have not changed that custom even after becoming a member of the Zhi family.

They are not born in Zhuxia. Many ethnic groups maintain primitive worship. They can worship anything. Knowing which one is very powerful, they process a lot of auras themselves, and then carve wood carvings to worship from time to time.

Zhiyao is really powerful, especially for improving their living environment. It is used to enshrine fear, and then it is worship of the strong.

Similar customs will be maintained by quite a few ethnic groups, and many powerful characters have enjoyed the treatment of becoming gods.

Yan Fei had been stationed for two days, and suddenly received an order to attack at noon one day.

As a cavalry, what preparations do you need to make for an attack?

Yan Fei brought two attendants, who were responsible for taking care of the horses, equipping them with stirrups and saddles, and checking the condition of the horseshoes on the horses.

Although there is no shortage of people who know how to ride horses among the Miao descendants of Zhuxia, in fact, they are not as good as those who grew up on horseback. Accounted for about forty percent.

How many cavalry does Zhishi have now?Because there is no difference between a formal organization and an unconventional organization, it is nothing more than a call-up order, the difference between how many people are recruited, and how many cavalry there are is really difficult to define.

For example, this time, Zhiyao plans to recruit [-] cavalry, and the cavalry who get the call-up order must bring at least one entourage, and more may bring three or five entourages, resulting in [-] cavalry in the cavalry register, plus The entourage can also fight on horseback, and there may be thirty or forty thousand riders in total.

Similar to Yan Fei, there are actually special names. They have their own farmland and pastures, and they can be called knights.This is also one of the reforms brought by Zhiyao.

Zhiyao originally wanted to form a special cavalry army, but later gave up because it was unnecessary.

The main reason is that the quality of the horses is just that, and they don't have the quality needed to form a cavalry, let alone a cavalry.

Under that kind of reality, the call-up order is issued every year, and the knights assemble into organized troops and go to a certain place for cruising or clearing missions. They are completely receiving training and conducting actual combat, and do not need to occupy the quota of the standing army.

Waiting for the day when there are excellent horses to train cavalry, more professional training will begin.And I don't know how long I have to wait for this day, maybe I have to wait for the people sent by Zhiyao to bring back better war horses from the Western Regions?
