- . Chapter 119 Dramatic Change 7
??The ancient orogeny caused the Hengshan Mountains to extend from the southwest to the northeast, connect Longshan to the southwest, and renew rapidly in the northeast
This mountain range has created two different worlds in the north and south. The north of Hengshan is mostly sandy and desert, while the south is mostly loess plateau landforms. The high slopes are dangerous and condescending.
Those towering mountains are called "plains". Between the plateaus, there are many rivers originating from Hengshan. If we count from Yanzhou in the east, the larger rivers include Wuding River, Luo River, Maling River, Hulu River and Qingshui River. These rivers include There are many tributaries, which not only bring agricultural irrigation, rich pastures, and herds of wild animals, but also become an adventurous road for careerists.
At the same time, these rivers and the tall and dangerous plateaus together constitute the precipitous and complex landscape here. Only the ruins of the fortresses and the ancient Great Wall are left, which can even be traced back to the distant Qin and Han Dynasties.
Nearly 10,000 Fan-Han coalition forces, under various banners, followed the Maling River to the north, then turned around and headed west in the southwest of Huanzhou, heading towards the edge of the Pheasant Clan's territory.
The team dragged on for a long time, and the Tibetan people also had their own banners. They refused to accept any of them, and they made noisy noises along the way, as if they were in a huge grass market. Some tribes even fought just to fight for the way.
¡°A bunch of rabble!¡±
Li Chuyun reined in his horse and looked back at the Tibetan soldiers behind him with a hesitant expression.
After a winter of preparations, the officers and soldiers were well-trained, with sufficient food and pay. The previous decline had been wiped out, and morale was high. However, Li Chuyun was worried that these temporary allies of the Tibetan people would miss his important mission.
"Brother Chu Yun, why should you care? I really don't know how that person has such a brain, he can actually encourage the Tibetan people to fight with the army." Zhe Deming beside him said with a smile.
"Those who are not of my race must have different minds!" Li Chuyun sneered, forgetting that the Zhe family he served was also a Tibetan people.
Li Chuyun has always been arrogant. After being captured by the Tibetan people last time, he suffered humiliation and stimulation at the hands of the Tibetan people. After returning, Li Chuyun's temperament became a little withdrawn, and he thought about revenge for the blood shame all day long.
"Brother Chu Yun, hatred will blind your eyes. Shushuai and Han Hou know it well. They are the ones who talk here. You must not violate their opinions." Zhe Deming kindly advised.
"I know this, but I think Han Hou's idea is too whimsical. In the whole world, is it possible for the king to expand his territory and conquer the four guests as a business? Li thinks that Han Hou is too frivolous. ." Li Chuyun said, "I guess, if this matter reaches the capital, what kind of uproar will it cause?"
"If the sky is falling, there will be a tall man holding it up anyway, so what are you and I worrying about? If the king has the final say in the capital, our father-in-law here will have to give some face to the Marquis of Han." Zhe Deming It was obvious that he agreed with Li Chuyun.
But in any case, when the empire's strength is insufficient, Han Yi successfully incited the Tibetan people. If it can be used well, this may be another good way to intimidate the barbarians.
Of course Li Wanquan, the leader of the Pheasant Clan, would not sit still and wait for death. He launched an active attack without hesitation.
The Tibetan and Han coalition forces were gathered together in a hurry, and their power was so loose that they did not even have a unified order. When Li Wanquan launched a surprise attack, the first ones to be attacked were of course the small peripheral tribes.
The reason why this situation exists is either because the Tibetan army is also wary of the official army, or because it is unruly and disobeys the official army's command, or it is simply to test the direction of the wind.
One side is united for profit, with different people's hearts, and the other side is desperate for survival. Therefore, under the two comparisons, the actions of the coalition forces were immediately curbed, the marching speed became slow, and deaths occurred from time to time.
Not only did the tribesmen not get any loot, but they also lost many warriors, and some tribes even left without saying goodbye. Han Yi's eyes and ears were always paying attention to the changes in the situation. He remained calm. The more Tibetan people died, the more relieved he actually became.
Blood will make hatred more unforgettable.
After waiting for seven days, one-third of the Tibetans had left. At the joint request of the chiefs of several large tribes, Han Yi convened a meeting with the Tibetans at the western foot of Maling Mountain.
"Thirteen tribes have evacuated, and seven or eight other families have moved away from our camp. It seems they want to leave too!" Tuoba Xiong said bitterly. Regarding this action, Tuoba Xiong was the most enthusiastic of all because of his feud with the Pheasant Clan.
"Yes, Brother Tuoba, these people are here to catch the autumn wind. Seeing that there is no profit to be gained, they ran away. They are like weeds on the ridges, blowing east and west. They are cleaner when they leave. The Pearl Clan will fight to the end this time!" Zong Luo, the leader of the Pearl Clan, said.??.
"Haha, it doesn't matter!" Han Yi waved his hand, "Chief Zongluo, calm down, there are fewer people, so it will be easier for us to divide the spoils, right?"
Ha ha!
Han Yi¡¯s timely joke made everyone laugh, which relieved some of the depression they had felt for the past seven days. Han Yi winked at Tuoba Xiong. Tuoba Xiong understood and said to everyone:
"Everyone, the previous war was unfavorable, and all the tribes suffered losses to varying degrees, but we did not damage the foundation. If we can work together and work hard in one place, what does a mere Pheasant Clan mean to us?"
"Brother Tuoba is right. I think the Pheasant tribe is afraid, so they are fighting us desperately! Yesterday we blocked the Pheasant group in a valley. If the Yanjia tribe hadn't been timid and afraid of death, they would have fought with us. Can they escape?" Zong Luo said.
"Zu Luo is a ferocious and cruel man, and his Pearl Tribe is very powerful, so he is somewhat arrogant and does not take the Yan family and other small tribes seriously.
"Chief Zongluo is too trusting, isn't he? You and your soldiers were also present at that time. Why didn't you, the Mingzhu clan, have a large number of people to stop you?" The chief of the Yanjia tribe was indignant. He didn't want to risk his own life and damage his family in the front. My son, let others enjoy themselves behind the scenes, but in the end, others took advantage of it.
"Hmph! The Pheasant tribe members ran too fast, and I accidentally let them escape." Zong Luo knew he was being wronged, and he blushed and defended himself.
Everyone wants to be cunning, so naturally this battle cannot be fought.
Everyone talked about how hard it was to march, how cunning and fierce the enemy army was, and how little supplies they had. They all turned their eyes to Han Yi involuntarily.
"How can a pie fall from the sky? If you don't contribute, there will be no discussion!" Han Yi sneered in his heart.
"The territory of the Pheasants tribe is very wide, starting from Maling Mountain in the east, Wonju Beiling in the south, the source of Puchuan River in the west, and Shaniuling in the north. The enemy's terrain is steep and there is a huge space for us to maneuver. Therefore, our army has gained Very few. Also, the Pheasant tribe is facing life and death, so they are very determined to resist and must be prepared."
Han Yi analyzed the battle situation, paused and said, "But think about it, why doesn't the Pheasant Clan jump out of their territory?"
"It's simple, because once Li Wanquan chooses to leave, he will never come back."
Even Zong Luo knows this. The Pearl Clan¡¯s territory is close to the Pheasant Clan, so like Tuoba Xiong, Zong Luo is determined to win.
"Yes, what Chief Zongluo said is right. So you should have confidence that this place can be regarded as a huge cage. I see that there are thirty-six highland checkpoints in the hundred-mile radius of this place that can be used by me. As long as each Build a fort everywhere, and garrison it with one or two hundred soldiers to command a commanding position. "Build a fort to force the fort, move the stronghold to attack the stronghold" to create a long-term siege. "Han Yi continued, "If he jumps out early before we have completed the defense, then we will occupy his land. Once he leaves the familiar base, he will be blind, deaf, and lame, like a lost dog! "
"But if Li Wanquan refuses to come out, what can we do?" someone asked.
"In a few days, the snow will melt away. In spring, the wind is strong and the sky is dry. I just need to put a few more fires. There is no grass, no trees, no wild animals, and no food. Oh, and the water is still used by people. Poisoned, and then" Han Yi picked up the wine glass, poured the wine into the fire, and a ball of flame immediately burst out in front of him.
Everyone looked at the fleeting flames, admired Han Yi's vicious ideas, and felt that the possibility of success was extremely high. Everyone looked at Han Yi's smiling face, feeling frightened and frightened deep in their hearts, saying that they must not be enemies with this person.
Han Yi and Zhe Congruan had already made this plan, anticipating that the war would not go well for the mob, so they only came up with their own strategy to strengthen the confidence of their allies when the group was in trouble, but he said Said deliberately:
"However, some tribal warriors have been away from home for a long time and cannot bear the hardship of climbing mountains and ridges. They all want to go back and enjoy peace and happiness. Besides, it is not easy to garrison a fort in this wilderness. I don't want to force others to make things difficult for me. I don't have a strong will. Yes, it¡¯s better to go back early!¡±
???????? In a desperate attempt to capture, Na Luo Tengdi stood up first, patted his chest to show his loyalty and said:
"Marquis Han, our Pearl tribe is willing to listen to your orders. As long as you are willing, I am willing to mobilize all our tribesmen to garrison the fort. As for when things are done"
Although Zong Luo was rude, he was very smart. He brought it up at this time, obviously wanting to take advantage of the opportunity to get a piece of the pie. He winked at Han Yi, which made Han Yi feel cold in his heart.
Tuoba Xiong glanced at Zong Luo with disdain and shouted:
"Zhongluo, those wild guys under your command are as wild as wild horses. How can they listen to the orders of Marquis Han? Brother Han, it is still convenient for us to kill the cattle tribe. As long as you nod, I will help the women we left in the camp. The old men are all here to garrison the fort!¡±
With Zong Luo and Tuoba Xiong taking the lead, all the chiefs in the tent started a heated discussion, vying to flatter Han Yi. Han Yi made a timely decision:
"Each family can produce as many warriors as they can, and they are all mixed together. Ten people are one Shi, ten Shi are one capital, five capitals are one battalion, and five battalions are one army. Each has its chief, head, and battalion commander. You and the army chief will discuss the installation project yourself, and report the results to me, and I will grant him a military position. Once the army is formed, all orders and prohibitions will be made by Duke Zheling. There is no tribe, only military orders and military laws, and other orders I don¡¯t ask anything about this. As for garrisoning the fort, Qin Geng is still early. I will call the people from Huan, Qing, Ning and other states to build the fort. After the matter is completed, all the spoils will be divided according to the number of warriors sent by each family. Distribution, as for the territory of the Pheasant Clan, I will only occupy 30% on behalf of the government, and the rest will be divided among you according to the proportion. In short, everyone has a share, and they can get as much share as they put in!"
"Follow your orders!"
When the chiefs gathered together, although they still had some concerns, seeing that Tuoba Xiong and Zhong Luo had already made up their minds and that the benefits were right in front of them, they all nodded in agreement, then dispersed in a hurry, and went back to their accounts to prepare.
After finishing this important matter, Han Yi went down to see Zhe Congruan, escorted by his tooth soldiers.
In the handsome tent, Zhe Cong Ruan was sitting on the floor. Seeing Han Yi come in, he smiled and asked:
"how?"
"These people don't let go of eagles when they see rabbits. Fortunately, they were finally persuaded by Han. However, the Tibetan soldiers are temporarily useless. Without proper training and training, they can only do bad things. They can only gather the number of people. The main thing this time is to see The officers and soldiers are here." Han Yi replied.
"The boys were all howling. I finally persuaded them. If you rush into the pheasant tribe's nest, there will be heavy casualties. Your 'building a fort, moving a stronghold and attacking a stronghold step by step' should be the best offensive and defensive strategy. It will be implemented immediately." Zhe Congruan laughed loudly, "The weather, the right location, the right people, you and I have everything in our hands, so why worry about the big thing failing?"
"What the Duke said is that Han has ordered the new governors of the four prefectures of Huan, Qing, Ning, and Yuan to take office immediately, and immediately summoned the people to build the fortress from now on." Han Yi responded.
"Okay!" Zhe Congruan slapped his thigh and stood up, "A dog in a hurry will jump over the wall. Sons, be prepared to copy the guy!"
"Yes!" Li Chuyun, Zhe Deming and other generals shouted in unison.
The Tibetan people were fighting endlessly for various officer positions in the newly formed Tibetan army, but Zhe Congruan and Han Yi were already busy regardless of how the Tibetan chiefs bargained in private.
Han Yi led a group of officials and was responsible for allocating nearly 10,000 people to build forts. He was extremely busy with money, food, and equipment. Zhe Congruan gave up the initiative to attack and instead deployed heavy troops to guard the dangerous terrain to provide protection for Han Yi's actions. The two cooperated closely and acted quickly. The Pheasant Man noticed the change in the situation and secretly felt that something was wrong.
"Father, we'd better leave here before the army forms an iron barrel encirclement, otherwise we will regret it." Noah wailed.
"Begging for burial, what do you think?" Li Wanquan turned to his son. These days, he relies heavily on his son and is a little cold towards Noah.
"The child thought that Noah was scared out of his wits and just wanted to escape. The army and the army were building a fortress in these high mountains. It would take a year and a half to build it. Will we let them build it with peace of mind?" Li Qimi still didn't know. Take the officers and soldiers into consideration.
"But the enemy has a large number of people. We can defend it with these troops. If we use it to attack the fort, I'm afraid the situation will change immediately." Noah retorted, "If we attack a fort upwards, even if we lose a hundred If one person seizes it, we will lose at least a thousand people in ten forts, and we cannot afford to pay for it!"
"Why do we need to fight one by one? We only need to capture one place, create a gap, attack the army's logistics, and cause pain to the army, and they will naturally return without success!" Li Qimi spat, Accused, "Noah, I really don't know how you can have the dignity to show up in this tent. You really have lost the face of our people!"
"you¡¡"
"Stop arguing. At this point, you have to work together to defeat the army. If you quarrel again, each will fight thirty!" Li Wanquan interrupted.
"Yes, foster father!" Noah wisely closed his mouth, his face full of worry.
