The heavens start from saving Daming

Zheng Zhuang, who successfully succeeded Jing Zhaoyin, is busy expanding the second phase of the new city in the direction of Afang Palace.

Ning Cheng was the county magistrate of Chang'an, and his job was to fill the new city with the population as soon as possible.

A city without people is a ghost town, meaningless.

For Ning Cheng, the most convenient way was to relocate the people from the various mausoleums around Chang'an City to the new city, but Li Yunze did not allow forced relocation, and could only do so voluntarily.

But people live well in Lingyi, have a house to live in, and have business connections, so why would they go to the new city to start again if it's not good.

After all, everyone knows that there is no one in Xincheng now, and no business can be done in the past.

Ning Cheng also turned gray in a hurry, even though he offered many benefits, there were still very few people who responded.

Until this time when Wei Qing led the troops to fight, Ning Chengcheng begged to see Wei Qing on the road as if he had found a life-saving straw.

"The rear general."

After seeing the ceremony, Ning Cheng knew that Wei Qing could not waste time, so he quickly said to Wei Qing who was on the horseback, "General, please send all the prisoners captured in this battle to Chang'an New City for resettlement."

If nothing else, there will inevitably be a large number of prisoners after this battle.

In the Yan Kingdom, anyone who can have a relationship with the King of Yan is within the attack range of the imperial army.

Of course, those who have a close relationship basically don't need to think too much, it's a dead end.

But those who are far away, or simply implicated, are basically the fate of migration.

According to the usual practice, local rich and wealthy merchants in the various counties of Yan State are all included in the relocation.

That's what Liu Bang did when he suppressed kings with different surnames everywhere.

Wei Qing on horseback thought for a while, then nodded in response, "Yes."

Ning Cheng's hanging heart finally fell.

He saluted Wei Qing again, then hurriedly retreated to the side of the road, watching the army pass by.

Li Yunze is determined to build a strong cavalry, and the equipment and treatment in all aspects are top-notch.

The most notable thing is that the standard equipment of the cavalry is three horses.

A pack horse used to transport military supplies.

A riding horse used for transportation.

A war horse used to charge the battlefield.

In the past, the cavalry of Middle-earth were basically one cavalry, and the cavalry relied on one horse to conquer the world.

Comparing the two sides, the gap is obvious.

In terms of equipment alone, the cavalry innovation promoted by Li Yunze has obvious generational differences.

In addition to the cavalry equipped with three horses, the most elite thousands of cavalry are equipped with steel plate armor, the core of which is the thousand fine cavalry that Li Yunze trained in Zhongshan Country.

Now the scale has expanded to nearly [-] riders, and their war horses are even wearing horse armor.

The rest of the cavalry are also equipped with iron liangdang armor, which are two pieces of iron sheets tied with cowhide and other things to protect the front and back of the body.

It's not that I can't afford better armor, but to reduce weight.

In terms of weapons, the cavalry has popularized lances and improved ring-shoulders.In addition, you can also choose a riding bow or hand crossbow. In addition, weapons such as flails, spears, and bones are also selected by yourself.

Then there is the cavalry three-piece set, stirrups, saddles and horseshoes.

It is self-evident that these three kinds of equipment can improve the combat effectiveness of cavalry.

More than ten thousand cavalry led tens of thousands of horses, pulled out a mighty formation, and rumbled straight to Fenglingdu.

Wei Qing almost took away all the cavalry inside and outside Chang'an City. As for the once brilliant chariot soldiers, they were directly abolished, and the horses were transferred to the cavalry.

After Li Yunze got out the van, some generals once said that the chariot was still very useful and should be reused.

But Li Yunze knew that chariot soldiers who had extremely high requirements for the terrain were destined to be eliminated, unless they had internal combustion engines.

So he directly assigned the vans to the infantry ranks, and abolished all the chariots.

It is to defeat the Huns in their most proud and strongest aspect!

On the march, Wei Qing had been thinking about how to fight this battle.

If it is simply to deal with Yan Wang Liu Dingguo, then Wei Qing doesn't even need to come forward.

Although Yan State is a feudal state, it is also a feudal state of the great Han.

Naturally, most of the common people in the country, even the officials and soldiers, are interested in the great man.

Gongsun Ao brought thousands of troops over there, which was enough to pacify Liu Dingguo.

Therefore, the main purpose of this battle is the Huns invited by King Yan.

The first thing Wei Qing thought of was the battle with Li Yunze who defeated the Huns royal court in Taiyuan County.

This is also the first battle in which he became famous and became a marquis because of his meritorious service. Naturally, he was deeply impressed.

'Lure the enemy to go deep, let the Huns in, and then go out to cut off the way back.'

This tactic is actually very simple. It can be summed up by luring the enemy to go deep, gathering and annihilating them.

If it were another general commanding the army, he might have sent an envoy to order the defenders of the Great Wall Legion to open an opening to let the Huns in.

But Wei Qing is honest and honest, and he couldn't bear the people of Yan State to be ravaged by the Huns, so he hasn't made up his mind for a long time.

When he went all the way north, crossed the Sanjin River Valley, and was about to enter the Hebei Plain from Taihang Baxing, Gongsun Ao urgently sent an official military document from Jicheng.

"Liu Dingguo really deserves to die!"

After reading the official document, even Wei Qing, who was always known for his good temper, was furious and cursed.

Gongsun Ao said in the official document that after receiving the order, he went north from Jibei Kingdom and entered the territory of Yan Kingdom first, waiting for Zhidu to join Wei Qing's soldiers and horses.

But not long after he led his troops into the territory of Yan State, he encountered the scattered county soldiers. After inquiring, he learned that Liu Dingguo, King of Yan, left Jicheng and went straight to You Beiping, and joined hands with Xiongnu Dadan to break through several passes in You Beiping.

The Huns flooded into all parts of the Yan Kingdom like a tide, burning, killing, looting and doing everything.

The local county soldiers were caught off guard and were defeated and scattered.

As for the Great Wall Corps on the borders of the counties, they were sticking to their own defense zones before they were ordered.

This practice of attracting bandits into the country really aroused the anger of everyone.

All the school lieutenants Sima shouted and cursed, and challenged Wei Qing to fight.

Wei Qing, who had calmed down, didn't rush to lead his troops out of Taihang, and went straight to Yan Kingdom, but turned to look at the map.

At this time, his soldiers and horses have passed Shangdang County and are in Taiyuan County.

After Li Yunze ascended the throne in Chang'an City and proclaimed himself emperor, the former Zhongshan Kingdom would naturally be eliminated as well, and it would be divided into counties and counties under the direct jurisdiction of the imperial court.

After studying the map for a while, Wei Qing quickly made a decision.

"Everyone."

Wei Qing summoned everyone to the map, and put his finger on the Great Wall, "I intend to send out surprise troops, and go north to Shangdai Commandery to go around Shanggu, Yuyang to Youbeiping, and cut off the retreat of the Huns!"

Everyone understood as soon as they heard it, this is the replica of the former emperor Po Junchen Shanyu.

Some people always like to say that when fighting a war, you follow the rules and dare not innovate, and you are fighting according to the old experience in the past.

But old experience is called experience because it has been tested successfully.

The situation on the battlefield changes suddenly, and anything can happen. Following the successful experience is the safest choice.

As for those unconventional and surprising victories, there are indeed some, but after the history of the Millennium War, how many successes can there be?
Everyone responded with approval, saying that what the general later said was true, and they should fight like this.

Wei Qing, who made up his mind, immediately sent an envoy to send a letter to Gongsun Ao and Zhidu, telling them to defend Jicheng no matter what, and absolutely not to let this great northern city fall into the hands of the Huns.

The crime of falling into a famous city is really fatal.

Immediately afterwards, another wave of envoys was sent to order the soldiers of the counties and counties of Yan State to guard their places and fight against the invaders.

He also sent envoys to send letters to Changshan, Hejian, Qinghe and other places near the Yan State to inform them of the Yan State and ask them to be on guard.

After arranging these, Wei Qing simply and neatly dropped the accompanying civilian husbands, and led the whole army to start the cavalry mobile raid mode.

Under normal circumstances, the maneuvering speed of the cavalry is not even faster than that of the infantry.

But once you start the long-distance raid regardless of the loss and cost, it will be five hundred miles in three days, and a thousand miles in six days.

Of course, Wei Qing chose a route with many mountains and roads, it was difficult to achieve this level, but it was definitely a fast gallop.

According to the tradition of the Han army's expedition, a large group of civilian armed forces will gather near the camp of the regular army.

Most of these people are local rangers, sons of good families who have failed in the election, and unpopular sons of noble families.

Their purpose is very simple, which is to follow the regular army to fight and change their destiny with their military exploits.

This time, the militiamen from all over the country who followed Wei Qing's army numbered in the tens of thousands.

Among them, one person was promoted by everyone as the leader, and they were all willing to follow his orders.

"Mr. Li!"

Li Guang, who was sitting by the fire, drinking wine and eating barbecue, saw someone rushing over, so he laughed and said, "Sit down and have a drink."

"Grand Li!" The visitor jumped anxiously, "We can't eat anymore, Wei Qing's soldiers and horses have left the camp quickly! Those civilian husbands have all been dismissed directly."

Li Guang, a great Han general who used to be an official to the county guard and Weiyang palace lieutenant.

It's a pity that when the Chang'an Palace changed, it was framed by Wang Zhi and others, which led to very serious consequences.

According to the law of the Han Dynasty, it should have been chopped off directly.

But Li Yunze was merciful, thinking that it was an unintentional mistake, so he forgave his capital crime.

Afterwards, Li Guang's family sold their property and paid a fine to save him from the crime of living.

But even though the person was released, the family property was gone, and the titles of military exploits and so on that he had fought for many years were naturally gone.

For Li Guang, he has fought all his life and knows nothing but fighting.

Fortunately, there are friends to help, but it is not too downcast.

When Wei Qing's army set off, Li Guang immediately followed with his family and friends all the way, hoping to return to the army by winning military exploits on the battlefield.

Knowing that Wei Qing's army marched out in a hurry without even taking their civilian husbands with them, Li Guang immediately understood that something important had happened, and rushed to the battlefield eagerly.

He got up quickly, raised his hand and touched the oil on his mouth, "Call the brothers together, the big battle is just around the corner!"

A group of militiamen quickly assembled and followed Li Guang to chase Wei Qing's army.

These militiamen who are determined to make contributions may not know that Li Guang's most amazing ability is called getting lost.
