Hanbo

Chapter 251 I don't even want to go to that lousy place! (4.2K asking for a monthly ticket)
After listening to Huo Shan's words, Liu Ju lowered his head and pondered. He felt that what Huo Shan said made sense.

Except for the three of them, everyone else naturally understood this situation, because Huo Shan had said it before, and now after his explanation, everyone else agrees.

Huo Guang, who didn't know much about this, nodded in agreement. He also thought that it was better to train light cavalry than heavy cavalry!

But Sima Qian still couldn't figure it out, he asked in confusion:

"A heavy cavalry is covered in armor, and a light cavalry's bow and arrow can't be broken at all."

Huo Shan rolled his eyes at him, and he didn't want to say anything more to a man who had no military knowledge at all.

How detailed he explained before, you can't understand this, Huo Shan has reason to suspect that there is a little problem with this guy's brain.

Seeing Huo Shan's reaction, Sima Qian pouted, feeling a little embarrassed.

Huo Guang next to him laughed, and then explained:
"It's true that heavy cavalry have defense, but they can't wear armor weighing more than a hundred catties all the time.

And they can't shoot people, but they can also shoot horses. Without horses, they can't go far with armor that weighs more than a hundred catties.

Moreover, heavy cavalry has too many disadvantages and costs too much compared to light cavalry, and it is not worthwhile to cultivate them on a large scale. Zihou didn't say that they are useless! "

Only then did Sima Qian nod his head, agreeing with the answer.

Huo Guang knew that he was a relatively weak person. If he didn't explain clearly and let him figure it out, he would always remember it.

Sima Qian's personality is actually very bad. Compared with other people present, he has no one to tell the truth.

Huo Guang didn't know why Huo Shan favored him so much.

Huo Shan ignored them, he had been observing the situation on the battlefield.

While they were chatting, Cao Zong and Li Guangli led three thousand heavy cavalry and rushed out of the Qiang camp.

Now their central battlefield has long been torn apart by the impact of these two waves of troops, and the noisy sound of wailing everywhere has reached Huo Shan's ears.

"Heavy riding the front and charging again. The original route was [-] steps north, rushing out from the southeast, and then directly returning to the central army. Captain Changshui immediately retreated after changing the rear horses!"

"promise!"

After changing horses, the heavy cavalry still had a very big impact. In this case, they would not be needed in the next battle, and it would be a waste if they were not used.

Afterwards, Huo Shan waited until the front charge was completed, and gave another order, and the rear followed closely.

After waiting for a while, Huo Shan looked at the heavy cavalry coming and going, and the five thousand long-water cavalry who were about to arrive. He turned around and asked Xiao Li:
"Has Xiaohei come back?"

"My lord, I'm back!"

Huo Shan nodded, and began to order again:
"Sun Shang, you lead the remaining five thousand Changshui to the north of the Qiang camp and wait for orders. I will drive these panicked Qiang people to the south later!"

"The last general takes orders!"

After Colonel Changshui came back, Huo Shan gave him another order:
"The whole army is waiting for the order. I will drive these Qiang people to the west later. This Marquis will drive the Qiang people out of the camp and let them abandon their food and supplies."

"The last general takes orders!"

For the Qiang people in the past, it was still very difficult to do this, but for the Qiang people now, it is simply not too simple.

It is estimated that the casualties caused by these four waves of rushing to the Qiang people are more than [-].

These are casualties, not the number of beheads, but if they are injured, it means that the [-] army has no fighting power!
And the remaining [-], even if they have fighting power, how many can they have left after these waves of fighting?

Not to mention that this is Huo Shan's own estimate. In a one-night battle, they conquer each other, and each other's eyes are red, and the casualties are estimated to be huge.

However, the number of people they kill each other will still benefit Huo Shan in the end, and add it to the soldiers. This is all military exploits!
The heavy cavalry have already retreated to the rear and are evacuating to Huqiang City. Their mission has been completed.

Next, Huben will not be able to use them until the Battle of the Western Regions begins next year. All they need to do now is to take a good rest.

The same is true for the iron armor. Tomorrow they will switch to light cavalry and then join the battle, but this battle is probably the pinnacle of their life!
Huo Shan looked at the Changshui cavalry who were ready in two directions, drew out the knife at his waist, pointed at the Qiang camp, and shouted:
"The Chinese army is pressing forward, the whole army is attacking, ten steps and one slogan, the slogan is the champion!"

Everyone couldn't help applauding Huo Shan's operation, it was so domineering!

"The Qiang people are afraid that they will be scared out of their wits!"

Huo Shan glanced at Fu Kedu who was speaking, and said with a light smile:
"Where is this going? When they see the [-] troops of the Xianling Qiang who have retreated, you said that if the [-] troops know the situation, will there be a big war?

If they saw the Huangzhong and Huqi tribes that blocked their escape route again, that would be the time when they would really despair! "

After Huo Shan finished speaking, he ignored the crowd and sat comfortably on the champion's back. He shook the champion's back in a relaxed manner and walked towards the Qiang army with the flag raised in front of him.

The battle was extremely simple, which made Huo Shan a little bored.

But this is exactly what he wants, if every day in future wars can be as boring as today.

.........

"Champion!...Champion!...Champion!..."

The soldiers shouted every few steps, and the huge forces coming from the north and east made the Qiang people in the camp start to tremble with fear.

Especially the Qiang people who had just escaped from heavy horses from the south and west and ran to the north and east, immediately started running to the south and west again!

"Frightened bird, heh!"

At this moment, the Qiang people have been scared out of their wits, and they have no thought of resisting. At this moment, they only have one thought, which is to run, the farther the better, to leave this place of death!

The long water cavalry soldiers only need to shout slogans, follow behind them, and rush forward from time to time to shoot two arrows.

Every time this happens, a large number of Qiang people will go crazy and run forward desperately, as if the long water cavalry behind them is something very terrifying.

However, it is indeed terrifying, it can kill people, isn't that terrifying?
Everyone else was amazed by this scene, but Huo Shan didn't have any special thoughts about this scene!

Where is this? There is much more amazing than this in history!
Hundreds of people chased ten thousand people and ran away, scaring an army of ten thousand people to flee desperately, is it out of the question?

It's off the charts, but it really exists.

When he goes alone like Lao Huo, he will be able to cause civil strife in a large tribe whether it is for surrender or for war.

Then directly subdue most of the famous Xiongnu alone, that is called prestige!
Now these are nothing!
.........

Seeing the Qiang people running out of the camp one after another, Huo Shan continued to give instructions:
"Keep chasing and forcing them to approach the mountains and run westward. Let's walk a hundred miles today. Tomorrow or tonight they will meet the ten thousand people who were first zero. Let's watch a good show. I don't know if they can fight! "

Zhang Anshi replied with a smile:
"Great Governor, I'm afraid they won't be able to fight in this situation. After all, civil strife or something, it's unlikely that my soldiers have just attacked them and threatened them at any time."

Huo Tan smiled and shook his head:
"That's not certain, maybe the Qiang people's brains have twitched again!"

When everyone heard this, they all started laughing!
The two armies faced each other, but civil strife broke out. It's not that the brains have been pumped and there is no way to explain it!
"Oh, by the way, the [-] soldiers and horses guarding the main roads in the mountainous area also rushed over. If they ran into the mountainous area and sent troops to follow them, the wolves would not be afraid of their tricks.

If they really entered the mountain, I have to dispatch troops to destroy them. "

With a smile on his face, Huo Guang lowered his head and said with a smile:
"I'm afraid it's unlikely."

Everyone, including Huo Shan, nodded, it was indeed impossible.

At this time, instead of running with the main force, but breaking away from the main force and rushing into the mountains to give up the advantage and seek death, then it is not a problem of brain twitching, but a lack of brain at all.

Huo Shan looked at the Qiang camp nearby, he was not interested in going in, it must be in a miserable state, besides the corpses, there are probably quite a few wounded soldiers.

The other Qiang people were able to evacuate. They were injured and had no choice but to stay where they were and be abandoned!
The Qiang people believe in the law of the jungle, and the same tribe is the same. Most of their tribes and people don't care about these wounded soldiers.

Huo Shan looked at Captain Shesheng:

"Send people back to the city, let Lu Bode send [-] soldiers to clean up the battlefield, and count the results of the battle..."

Having said that, Huo Shan paused for a moment, then continued:

"Look at how many ranks our soldiers have cut!"

"promise!"

Huo Shan bit the word "cut level" very hard, and the subconscious meaning was that he would not leave any of them behind.

In the war in the era of cold weapons, the proportion of soldiers killed in frontal battles was very small, and most of them were wounded soldiers who could not survive later, resulting in a large-scale reduction in personnel.

After all, with ancient medical methods, a small injury can be fatal, especially in the military, who knows what is on the enemy's blade.

There are also those who died of starvation due to insufficient food, those who died of too much cold, and those who died of illnesses that were not suitable for the climate, etc. Non-combat attrition accounted for the majority.

Rather than letting them struggle and die, it is better to give them a happy life.

And it's useless to keep these wounded soldiers, they have to eat, drink, and serve them. Turning them into military exploits is the right answer!

In fact, the generals at this time did not keep these wounded soldiers and those who did not kill prisoners.

You can't kill many enemies on a large-scale battlefield. It's obvious where the military achievements come from!
As long as you are not too much, this thing is correct, no one will use this to criticize you!

Huo Shan is still very kind.

And the big Han is also quite kind to these alien races. Although some captives will inevitably become slaves, most of them will be given household registration and let them be the people of the big Han!

Look at Europe in the west of the Western Regions, where captives become citizens?Don't be kidding, well, they are slaves, the spoils of the great nobles!

I'm afraid of comparison in everything. The place is not big, and there are many countries and tribes, but it costs more to play than here!

Huo Shan thought about it and thought of the Western Regions, Dawan is not far away from there, I don't know if he can meet people there!

Huo Shan looked down on that side, but with the current situation there, with [-] Qingqi, he could scan them all!
At this moment, the other side is really backward, and even the famous Roman "Empire" has not yet appeared!
The famous Julius Caesar will not be born until the third year of Taichu!

Thinking of Huo Shan rubbing his chin, he became a little interested. He decided that if he had spare time next year, he might go for a walk, but the sick people over there should be careful. If they don't have time, then forget it.

If it wasn't for his interest in Rome, he wouldn't even want to go to this ignorant and backward place.

Even if it is defeated, it will not be able to occupy it. It is still possible to lead troops to sweep around and make a name for yourself.

Given the topographical conditions over there, a unified empire would not be born, and it would be impossible for the fragmented continent to develop farming in the east.

No matter how it changes, it will eventually lead to ocean civilization!
However, it may be possible to occupy some land and build two households, and make a talk from ancient times.

You can also bring some princes back to learn Chinese culture and support them to sit in that position, and you can also get some scholars to spread the systematic Chinese culture.

The distance is too far, and the big man can't control the Duhufu. Let's not think about this problem for now, we just need to stick two nails to spread the culture!
Huo Shan shook his head, thinking a little too far, this is something that will disappear in the future, and he is only sixteen, so he has plenty of time!
Huo Shan looked to the west:

'I don't know what's going on with Huangzhong and Hu Qi! '

.........

And when the battle on Huo Shan's side was almost halfway through, they actually traveled all night and were about to reach the [-]-mile defense line.

It was less than thirty miles away from the Qiang people, and they had already been discovered. The tens of thousands of soldiers and horses who were zero Qiang at the beginning were really a little confused when they learned that the Han soldiers and horses suddenly appeared thirty miles behind them.

At this moment, they still don't know about the civil strife. After all, it happened last night, and the scouts who reported the news were still running on the road!
And after they were dazed for a while, they immediately became a little flustered.

After all, no matter how stupid they were, they knew what it was like to have an army of Han people behind them, and they were surrounded!

And they are not stupid, they just have a different brain circuit, not normal, cough...

And when Huo Shan's battle ended and the Qiang people were driven westward, the two sides had already begun to contact each other!

The Qiang people know that if they don't deal with the Han people behind them and have no way out, then they will most likely have to confess here!
So while sending a letter to the headquarters, they launched an attack on Xu Zi for them!

.........

Xu Ziwei and Zhao Chongguo looked at the five thousand Qiang cavalry who were rushing towards them, and they both looked at each other with strange expressions.

In their view, these Qiang people just ran back obediently, and they insisted on running to seek death. Alas, I feel sorry for them!
The 6000 god-armed crossbow has been wound and raised, and the [-] people are divided into two parts. As the Qiang people get closer and closer, Xu Ziwei waved his big hand, and the [-] arrows flew over a distance of [-] steps and rushed into the Among the Qiang people.

The result was that people turned their backs on their backs. After the Qiang people and horses shot to death in front fell down, they tripped over the ones in the middle, and the ones behind couldn't stop and bumped into them again, causing chaos.

As they fell into chaos, Xu Ziwei waved his hand again, and the danger of impact was eliminated. The crossbow array stepped forward a hundred steps, and three thousand arrows flew out again, and some Qiang people directly fell off their horses.

After waiting for a while, Xu Ziwei looked at the Qiang people who left in a hurry, smiled at Zhao Chongguo and asked:

"Do you think they will come again!"

Zhao Chongguo looked at the [-] Qiang people who came here and almost [-] when they returned, and couldn't help saying:
"Are you looking for death?"

The previous wave of kills was actually not enough, but the subsequent wave of Arrow Rain and the Qiang people might have lost more than a thousand, so they all crowded together, which is normal.

The two looked at each other and started to laugh. This battle was really too simple for the wife, and it made them feel a bit unbeautiful!
