Qiang Qin

Chapter 400 Battle of Hetao

Advantages and disadvantages.

Only relatively speaking, the high civilization, advanced technology, and collective wisdom of the Central Plains can completely change the inherent disadvantages. On this point, Li Yuan also firmly believes.

Reproduce the defensive posture of the Qin army on the Julu battlefield. This is the decision made by Li Yuan, Li Zuoche, Zhonglimei, Cao Xin, Lou Jing and other generals and counselors of the Qin army. The confrontation between the Qin Army and the Kwantung Anti-Qin Allied Forces was very similar.

At that time, the main forces of the Qin army of Zhang Han and Wang Li were stationed in Zhao, surrounded by troops against the Qin princes, and the food and fodder needed by the Qin army had to be transported from Guanzhong. The army needs to pass through a corridor to ensure that the camp has sufficient supplies.

As the main force of the Qin Army moved northward, Gaonu City, located on the banks of the Wuding River, has become the rear base camp of the Qin Army and an important material transfer point. With Wang Shang's ability to control the battle situation, as long as Gaonu City is not lost, Guanzhong will not be captured by the Huns.

As for the safety of the corridor, Li Zuoche did his part to take over the order. In front of the two armies, it is not his strong point to charge into the battle and capture the flag. However, in terms of defense and strategy, Li Zuoche is much better than others .Li Zuoche, known for his resourcefulness, has an unusually sensitive sense of smell in predicting the next possible move of the enemy general.

This time, Li Yuan also paid special attention to the Helian tribe of the Northern Huns who were known for their ferocity and savagery. After much consideration, he assigned Li Zuoche a lieutenant who was accustomed to combat: Hulu.

Hu Zhe used to be a subordinate of Peng Yue, the giant wild thief, and now he is an ordinary captain in the Qin army. There are more than [-] generals in the Qin army under him. This number is no different from other captains.After the Qin State defeated the Chu State, Peng Yue was appointed as the Governor of Donghai and continued to stay in the Pengcheng area.And his subordinate bandits gradually integrated into the Qin army system.

In fact, not only Hu Zhe, but also Luan Bu, these former Kanto heroes are going through the pain of re-employment, and as long as they go through this period of adaptation, the next military career will be with them. Follow the pace of the Qin army's conquest and continue to advance, and then advance.

——.

November [-]nd.

He Lianbi led his tribe's cavalry to appear on the south bank of the river and acted with him.There are also Zang Yan's more than [-] rebel soldiers from the Central Plains.

These Qin traitors who betrayed their homeland are composed of guests from various countries in the Kanto region, the old ministries, intercropping bought by Zang Yan, and bandits who have been attacked by the Qin army and have nowhere to live. They have been burning and killing in the Henan area these days Robbery, almost all kinds of crimes, many hidden places that the Huns could not find, were found by these guys who were familiar with the terrain.

For Zang Yan, He Lianbi looked down on him from the bottom of his heart, he was just a villain who betrayed the interests of his homeland.It's just that now that Da Shanyu needs him, he has to froze.

"King Helian, my scouts have already found out the area around the corridor of the Qin army. Some areas are not covered by sharp rocks. If we move quickly, we can cut off the supply of the Qin army in one fell swoop before the Qin people return to help. The route. And if you’re lucky, you can wait until the Qin Army’s grain transport troops arrive before you start. By then, we will be well-developed.” Zang Yan approached He Lianbi, admonishing him.

Although Helianbi was not trusted by Maodun, in order to appease the Helian tribe, before this expedition, Maodun still conferred Youguli King to Helianbi.

Zang Yan called King Helian very well.However, He Lianbi looked at the faint corridor in the distance, and didn't even look at Zang Yan. He just said coldly: "President Zang, military affairs are decided by the king. The task of your department is to find out. As for the main force of the army going north this time, what methods have not been used, this king hopes that you can live up to the heavy trust of the big Shanyu, if you miss this mission because of greed, don't blame this king for being rude."

Zang Yan was taken aback, his expression changed several times, finally he held back his anger, and snorted: "The general knows, thank you for your guidance. However, the Great Chanyu has already ordered that within ten days, I will The army must launch an attack on the tunnel of the Qin army, and it is best to completely cut off the supply of the tunnel within [-] days, don't forget it, my lord."

After all, Zang Yan no longer had any interest in talking to He Lianbi, so he swung his horse back to his own position.

Different road non-phase plan.

In fact, Zang Yan also looked down upon barbarian warriors like He Lianbi. Among the leaders of the Xiongnu tribes, Zang Yan only looked down on Mao Dun.

"Your Majesty, this Zang Yan is too rampant. How could our warriors of the Helian tribe be humiliated by a traitor from the south." Beside Helianbi, a tribal commander cursed angrily.

"It's just a fox pretending to be a tiger, don't worry about it. When our Helian tribe grows stronger, these villains will beg and kneel in front of you and me, offering their wives and daughters to ask for forgiveness." Helianbi said with a sneer.

Zang Yan's threat.

Helianbi didn't pay attention to it yet.

However, behind Zang Yan, there is Mao Dun's support. Regarding this decisive killing, turning his hands into clouds and covering his hands into rain, He Lianbi asked himself, with his current strength, it is far from being regrettable. Even the slightest dissatisfaction with Maodu's status may bring disaster.

The discord between He Lianbi and Zang Yan was just a small episode in the huge Hetao battlefield.In the face of larger-scale changes in the battle situation, neither Mao Dun nor Li Yuan has the energy to pay attention to one or two personal psychological problems. In fact, fluctuations in people's hearts can often affect the overall situation.

"The commanders and households of the various ministries, pass down the order that the whole army will march towards Yiqu, twenty miles away, and launch an attack on the enemy on time at noon tomorrow." He Lianbi was silent for a long time, and said coldly.

He Lianbi did not fully believe Zang Yan's specious news channels. After the frontier army was destroyed, all of Zang Yan's people had been exposed, and the main force of the Qin army that had just entered Hetao had strict military discipline, which Zang Yan could not find out at all. of.As the leader of the tribe, Helianbi believed more in his judgment.

In addition, the change in the mentality of the generals and soldiers in the Helian tribe also made Helianbi no longer hesitate. It has been more than three months since he came to Hetao from the North Sea thousands of miles away. Already have the idea of ​​homesickness, the morale of the army is unstable, how can we defeat the enemy?

Therefore, for the Helian tribe, a quick battle is actually the only option.

Fortunately, the Helian Tribe had just retreated from Gaonu to Hetao a month ago, so they were no strangers to the terrain in this area.Since the military action to attack the Qin Army's tunnel can no longer be delayed, it has to take a risk.

The only thing that makes He Lianbi afraid is that the defenses on the corridor of the Qin Army are unpredictable. The Qin Army will have a supply point every twenty miles. At this larger supply point, there will generally be about six, 700 defenders, although this small force is small in number, it is the key to preventing the Huns from further destroying the corridor.

With this Qin army unit that appeared in time, it became very difficult for the Huns cavalry to complete the destruction of the corridors in a short period of time. After all, the Huns cavalry were good at field battles, not how to transform the solid corridors of the Qin people into into a pile of waste.They may be able to burn the wooden fence and burn the logs into charcoal, but this does not affect the passage of the corridor. The Qin army's heavy soldiers only need to pull a few more carts to repair all the damage within a quarter of an hour. lot.

Yiqu.

An important node on the corridor of the Qin army, and the target of the tunnel attack finally identified by the Huns.This place is located in the middle of Bainijing and Gaonu City, and it is also the source of the upper reaches of the Wuding River. The surrounding water plants are abundant. Even in winter, the grassland moistened by the water is still a little green, which is very suitable for the rest of the grassland tribes. .

Being able to give himself a chance to further rest and preserve his strength while attacking his opponent is a decision made by Helianbi after careful consideration.For this reason, he did not hesitate to almost turn against Zang Yan.I have to admit that Helianbi's ability to interpret the battlefield is excellent. On the long corridor, it is not easy to find the weakest fulcrum of the Qin army. Some places seem to be flawed, and they may be traps set by the Qin army.

Starting from the first ten days of November, for seven whole days, the Helian Tribe launched several rounds of tentative attacks on the corridors of the Qin Army in the Yiqu area. The evolution of the battle situation made Helianbi's face pale.

The corpses of the Huns cavalry lay in disorder on the cold ground. Some of them fell forward, and some simply looked up at the blue sky unwillingly. ground cheers.

He Lianbi's actions were very cautious. He didn't refer to Zang Yan's opinion. He only invested about a thousand troops at one time, and this amount of troops was not decisive for the Qin army's supply troops guarding the corridor. .But it can expose all the cards of Qin Jun's side.

Judging from the exposed equipment of the Qin army, the Qin pawns guarding the tunnel were equipped with machine crossbows, with fences on both sides and solid chariots as barriers. From these analysis alone, the Qin army seemed to be confident in guarding the tunnel.

"Your Majesty, it has been seven days. The messengers of the Great Chanyu have come in three consecutive batches. If there is any further delay, they will no longer be able to cover the Helian tribe." Beside Helianbi, Zang Yan made a distressed expression. As he said it, but there was a gloating look on his face.

He Lianbi grinned grimly, and said: "Master Zang doesn't need to say more, you can tell the Chanyu that within three days, I, He Lianbi, will break through the tunnel, and I will never hold back the army's actions."

Battle of the tunnel.

With the rumble of the war drum, it is entering the hottest stage step by step. While He Lianbi and Li Zuoche are playing chess, the two behind-the-scenes players, Maodun and Li Yuan, are closely following each other. Staring at the opponent's every move, hoping to find a breakthrough from the flaws exposed by the opponent.

The end of the Hetao War is coming. (To be continued..)
