Chapter 246
On the official road, a team meanders, it is the army from Yunzhou.This time, in order to fight against the Huns, Guo Jia brought almost half of his family fortune.

Five thousand cavalry and ten thousand infantry, including five thousand crossbowmen, are almost all in Yunzhou.

In addition, Guo Jia also brought three hundred artillery and one hundred artillery vehicles.

Zhao Dachui stood proudly at the head of the queue.

After several months of training, Guo Jia's artillery unit has expanded by nearly 500 people.

This time, he only brought 300 people, and the rest were handed over to Xi Zhong and Xu Shu. After all, protecting Yunzhou is also a very difficult task.With Yunzhou's military strength, it is indeed difficult without the cooperation of artillery.

In addition, Guo Jia also brought more than 100 chariots.A chariot battalion was formed.

To deal with the cavalry of the Huns in the wild, chariots are indispensable.

The car was not empty either, but it was loaded with Guo Jia's secret weapon that came this time.

These secret weapons are Guo Jia's last resort.

As early as three months ago, Guo Jia began to plan how to deal with the Huns' cavalry and shooting.

These secret weapons were driven out in a few months.

"Master Inspector, fifty miles ahead is the bridgehead."

In front of the horse to report.

Ignore Li!
Guo Jia breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that they came at the right time, and the main force of the Southern Huns has not yet arrived.

"The Right Army Division has already sent someone to contact us and welcome us into the city."

The right army division is Xun You, but at the moment he is guarding the bridgehead under the pseudonym Wu Yi.

The bridgehead is the first tentacles extended by Zhongshan, which has great strategic significance.

Xun You is naturally very clear.

Seeing the city in sight, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Although the Huns have a large number of troops, siege is not their strong point.

With a bridgehead, they will definitely be defeated.

Order to go down!

Guo Jia suddenly said: "Tell the right army division that we will not enter the city, let them guard the city properly."

what?
Hearing the news, everyone couldn't help but look at each other.

If you don't enter the city, do you want to fight the Huns?

Yu Jin and Zhao Yun looked at each other, also a little puzzled.

Although they may not lose to the Huns in field battles, but there is a city to defend, why do they have to fight in the field?
Isn't this one's own shortcomings attacking others' strengths?

In field battles, the Huns are very powerful.

This decision of the lord seems a little abnormal.

Seeing the confusion of the two subordinates, Guo Jia smiled and said, "Do you think I'm a little dizzy? Let the city go unguarded, and you insist on fighting with them?"

Yu Jin and Zhao Yun couldn't help but feel hot on their faces.

They do have some ideas.

But I was a little embarrassed to be pointed out by Guo Jia.

"I don't know what the lord's meaning is?"

Yu Jin clasped his fists together.

Although Zhao Yun didn't speak, there was hope on his face.

Hey!
Guo Jia couldn't help shaking his head.

Although the two are rare good generals, they are not strategists, and they are a little far from strategizing.

"The Huns came here in full force, and they will not give up until they break Yunzhou. If we shrink the bridgehead, they will not see the advantage, and they will not attack the city with all their strength. Once they bypass the bridgehead and go deep into Yunzhou We will become passive. Don’t forget, the Huns are different from the Han’s army in that they have no supply lines.”

That's it!

The two suddenly realized.

It is a taboo for military strategists to go around the city.

Once this is done, the rear supply line will be exposed to the opponent.

If the enemy sent troops to cut off the supply line, the entire army would be defeated without a fight.

But the steppe nomads are something special.

They would carry a large number of cattle, sheep and horses in every battle, and fight while grazing. When they were hungry, they would eat the cattle and sheep.So there is no supply line.

When encountering a city that cannot be conquered, they will choose to go around and continue to attack the surrounding small cities.

Sometimes they can hang around for a long time.

That's the advantage of not having a supply line.

That is to fight when you want to, and leave when you want, without any burden.

Of course this is only limited to cavalry.

If the Huns bypassed the bridgehead and penetrated deep into Yunzhou, it would definitely put great pressure on the internal defense.

In addition, the infantry stationed at the bridgehead is completely useless, except for the cavalry who can catch up.

But five thousand against thirty thousand is still the cavalry archers of the Huns, and most of them have no chance of winning.

Therefore, the city cannot be defended.

Guo Jia had no intention of defending the city from the beginning.

"My lord said so!"

Yu Jin was convinced that although he had become a qualified general, his understanding of the Xiongnu cavalry was not as deep as that of Guo Jia.

"My lord, even in a field battle, we are not weaker than them."

Zhao Yun also spoke.

Since you can't defend the city, let's fight.

He firmly believed that his white horse righteousness was never weaker than the Xiongnu's elite cavalry.

Ha ha!

Guo Jia smiled slightly.

Field combat is necessary, but it is not necessary to fight recklessly.

There is no way for a man to fight wits and fight hard.

The southern Xiongnu bordered on Yunzhou, even if the little prince hadn't been killed, they would not let Yunzhou, a rich place, be spared.

So this time, Guo Jia wants to wipe out the Southern Huns to end this heinous trouble.

"Zilong, from now on, you and Yu Jin will leave separately. You lead five thousand cavalry and continue northward. Once you come into contact with the Huns, don't love to fight, and retreat while fighting. Lead them to Bingzhou."

Guo Jia exhorted.

Go to Bingzhou!
Zhao Yun was stunned for a moment.

Is it...

He couldn't help but glance at Guo Jia.

Is this lord trying to bring disaster to the east?
"Since Ding Yuan dares to covet Yunzhou, let's give him a big gift. Let's choose Bingzhou for this battle."

Guo Jia said with a smile.

Brilliant plan!

Zhao Yun was overjoyed.

Ding Yuan of Bingzhou is not a good bird either. He has gathered heavy troops on the border of Bingzhou, and he originally intended to come here when Yunzhou was weak.

You are not benevolent and I am not righteous.

It is only natural for Guo Jia to bring disaster to the east at this moment.

Lord!

Yu Jin on the side was a little puzzled.

"Infantry and cavalry can fight against the Huns. If Zilong takes the cavalry and the Huns go straight to our infantry, wouldn't our people be in danger?"

His concerns were not without reason.

On the vast grasslands, cavalry is the absolute overlord.

Although the infantry can form formations against the cavalry, once the cavalry cuts off the rear, it will definitely be defeated across the board.But there will be no one left who will be hunted down by the cavalry afterwards.

This trick is what Guo Jia is best at.

In Yunzhou's historical battles, the cavalry has always acted as the final killer.

There are tens of thousands of troops who died directly or indirectly at the hands of cavalry.

Do not worry!

A smile appeared on Guo Jia's face.

"I can't wait for them to attack? As long as they come, I will make them unforgettable."

As he spoke, a cold light flashed across his eyes.
