Chapter 331 The Battle of Mobei (5)

In this battle, Chutian won a lot, including the wife and daughter of King Youxian of the Xiongnu. The Xiongnu cavalry could not be captured and enslaved, and even the "Tian Khan" feature was invalid in this war of extermination, so Chutian executed the Xiongnu soldiers.

As for the more than ten wives and daughters of King Youxian of the Xiongnu, how should they deal with them...

"These people are quite beautiful, and the lord can take them back to the Eastern Han Dynasty as slaves."

Fang Xuanling still spared no effort to promote Chutian's harem plan, believing that the more children Chutian has, the greater the peace of mind in Xuzhou's power.

Hua Mulan looked at Fang Xuanling angrily. Fang Xuanling suddenly felt that it was not very good to offend the group's pet Hua Mulan, so she said to Chu Tian, ​​"How can a mere barbarian daughter be worthy of the noble status of the lord."

Chu Tian's eyes looked at the wife and daughter of King Youxian of the Xiongnu: "I think I already know how to deal with them."

The 50,000 Han cavalrymen defeated the main force of the Xiongnu King Youxian, and they also lost thousands of cavalry, but the number of Xiongnu cavalry killed was several times their own.

Li Guang and Zhao Shiqi were very grateful to Chutian because Chutian led the team to defeat the main force of the Huns in their eyes. No one is more eager for military exploits than them.

The cavalry of the Han army plundered King Youxian's livestock and slaughtered thousands of sheep that night, rewarding the entire army. Li Guang and Zhao Shiqi, two Han generals, regarded Chu Tian as their guests. With the support of two Han generals, Chutian basically did not have to worry about the attitude of Yuan Shao and Cao Cao.

"This is not Shanyu's formation, but the Righteous King."

Because Chutian captured the wives and daughters of the Xiongnu King Youxian, he knew that he was not the most powerful Xiongnu Chanyu and Zuoxianwang. The main force of King Youxian has been crippled by Wei Qing in the Battle of Monan.

The Xiongnu Shanyu assembled at least 200,000 cavalry in Mobei, waiting for work, and his power was stronger than that of King Youxian.

"Meng De, I have a group of captives, and it is also a burden to carry, so I might as well give it to you."

Chu Tian held a roasted leg of lamb, which was tender on the outside and tender on the inside, and presented the captive of King Youxian to Cao Cao, who was sitting next door. Maybe Cao Cao liked this bite.

"..."

Cao Cao was stunned for a while, when he heard that Chutian wanted to give him the wife and daughter of King Youxian of the Huns, but he did not reject Chutian's kindness in the end.

Because of joining forces against the Huns, Cao Cao's favorability toward Chutian increased slightly.

"If you are loyal to me in the future, we will sweep the barbarians from all over the world. The Xiongnu, Wuhuan, Xianbei, Gaoli, and Dongying will all enter the dynasty to pay tribute and offer women every year."

Chutian did not leave any room to recruit Cao Cao. Cao Cao, who has fought for five years, is still a Han minister, and he may be able to use it for himself.

Cao Cao was silent, looking at the crackling fire.

The Battle of Mobei had a great impact on him.

Seeing that Cao Cao was silent, Chu Tian checked his points. The points were 16,373. In addition to killing ordinary Hussars, he also killed a group of Huns nobles under the right court.

It's a pity that King Youxian's escape speed is first-class, and he can't catch up. Otherwise the points can be higher.

"General Chu, how should we march next?"

The old Li Guang was very pleasing to the eyes of Chutian, and he could catch the main force of the Huns by following Chutian. This is the difference of luck.

Li Guang followed the son of luck like Chu Tian, ​​and he didn't get much luck. Instead, he made a lot of military exploits.

"Continue to march to Mobei and assist the generals in attacking the Xiongnu formation. The Xiongnu formation has 200,000 cavalry and a large number of eagle archers. We will drive the cattle and sheep forward.

Learn to fight with the Huns, you don't need to worry about food and grass, and you can win a big victory with the generals who attack the Huns. "

Chutian proposed to continue to march, and Li Guang and Zhao Shiqi believed that this person was very lucky, and they became Chutian's supporters one after another.

Cao Cao and Yuan Shao also followed.

This way, the Han army rested on the spot. Because there were more than 100,000 livestock captured, Chutian and others would not be troubled by the problem of luggage within a month, and the infantry, military vehicles and luggage teams of the Han army in the rear would also catch up during this period. The former army, replenished with supplies such as food and weapons.

"The Huns live by water and grass, and they come and go freely in the desert. If the Central Plains want to conquer the desert, they must attack lightly like them."

Although Chutian's territory and nomadic tribes have not yet had any conflict, Chutian is already thinking about how to control the desert.

In the northern part of the main world of the Eastern Han Dynasty is the desert, which belongs to the alien civilization area outside the Han Empire, that is, the Mongolian Empire civilization.

In reality, it is quite difficult to control Mobei, but in "Lord", there is a teleportation array. After Mobei is defeated, it is less difficult to achieve control.

You can use the teleportation array to garrison troops for a long time and migrate the population to the Mongolian plateau, but the disadvantage is that the cost is relatively high.

After chasing and killing King Youxian for three hundred li, the Han army did not rashly advance until he re-determined his position. After the various legions camped and handed over a dozen families of King Youxian to Cao Cao, Chu Tian had no choice but to bully Hua Mulan.

"Chu Zimou has already won 16,000 military exploits. Could it be that he encountered the Huns along the way?"

The various princes of Weiqing Road have found that Chu Zimou's military exploits are ranked first again. It is obvious that Li Guang's soldiers and horses have broken out with the Xiongnu.

Now the two troops and horses are about to arrive in Mobei, and the possibility of encountering the main force of the Huns is extremely high.

"Yuan Shao's military exploits can actually be ranked first?"

Liu Bei's military advisor Chen Xi, who had a grudge against Yuan Shao, noticed that Yuan Shao's points were ranked third, and it was obvious that Yuan Shao had also shared a lot of military exploits because he was plotting with Chu Zi.

Guan Yu promised his eldest brother Liu Bei that he would get the top three before he set off on the expedition. Now the top three are taken over by Chu Zimou, Cao Mengde, and Yuan Benchu, all of whom belonged to Li Guangyi. (Li Guang and Zhao Shiqi are not included in the points ranking)

Guan Yu found that he underestimated the various princes. There is no shortage of generals at the level of the Five Tiger Generals among the various princes. Although some generals are not as powerful as the five tiger generals, the cavalry they command is even stronger than that of the five tiger generals.

"Guan Yu is too arrogant, this is his flaw. It would be nice to get the top ten in this battle."

Chen Xi, a foreign military adviser, can become Liu Bei's chief military adviser, and he is naturally capable of overpowering ordinary historical advisers. He knew that Liu Bei's power was placed in the entire Eastern Han Dynasty, and it was really not enough to see.

The princes who have the ability to participate in the battle of Mobei are not ruthless people with a population of one million, or even ten million.

Wei Qing reorganized the army and learned that Li Guang had already fought against the Huns all the way, and still marched according to the predetermined plan.

In Mobei, Yi Zhixie Chanyu joined forces with his second king, Zhao Xin, to gather 200,000 cavalry and prepare to fight Wei Qing to the death in Mobei.

Xin Zhao was originally a Hun nobleman, but later surrendered to the Han Dynasty and was made a marquis. Later, when Xin Zhao was surrounded by the Xiongnu, he returned to the Xiongnu, and Yi Zhixie Shanyu named him the second king. Because Xin Zhao is familiar with the fighting methods of the Han army, he is also Yi Zhixie Chanyu's military advisor, and he advises Yi Zhixie Chanyu.

Escape to Mobei far away, increasing the logistical pressure of the Han army, decreasing morale and physical strength, and then confronting the Han army in Mobei, this tactic was Xin Zhao's plan.

To lure the enemy into the depths and carry out total annihilation, his tactics are theoretically reasonable, but unfortunately he encountered Wei Qing and Huo Qubing-level generals.

Wei Qing's ability has kept the morale of the Han army high until now.

East Route Army, Huo Qubing was delayed for some time because he wanted to join forces with Lu Bode, the prefect of Youbeiping County.

However, the legend of Huo Qubing has just begun.

Huo Qubing, the only 21-year-old hussar general, summoned his subordinate Li Gan (son of Li Guang), general eagle striker Zhao Ponu (captured King Loulan), and Lu Bode, the prefect of Youbeiping, and the rebel leaders Mingguan and Jiu. Ji Laoqin, Huma, Zhao Long, Shuotang and others are going to go deep into Mobei with light clothes, looking for the main force of King Zuoxian to fight.

As the prince of Xiongnu, King Zuo Xian had a higher status than King You Xian, who was defeated by Wei Qing in the Battle of Monan, and possessed more cavalry.

This time, Huo Qubing intends to go deeper into the desert more than 2,000 miles and kill King Zuo Xian!

Facing the ambitious hussar generals, Mingguan, Huma and other princes had no doubts.

Because, this is the big Han Hussar general who can seal the wolf in his early twenties!

In the entire history, few people have achieved such an achievement!

Huo Qubing is young and vigorous, with a sharp edge, but he has the momentum of swallowing thousands of miles like a tiger!

His eyes swept across the princes present, even an old fox like Jiujiu Lao Qin, who was in his 50s, was in awe.

At the age of twenty-one, Huo Qubing was sealed off as a wolf, and the various foreign players may still be in school at the age of twenty-one.

"This time, we will give up most of the baggage and travel lightly. Everyone will only bring half of the cavalry. Make sure that each cavalry has at least two war horses and one pack horse. If there are more war horses, you can bring more cavalry."

Different from Chutian's prudent practice of abandoning the cargo team after discovering the main force of the Huns, Huo Qubing's tactics were more adventurous, with one man and many horses and rapid advance.

If you capture the main force of King Zuo Xian, you can achieve extraordinary feats. If you can't capture it, you may be wiped out.

"Take orders!"

The princes present were not afraid. Because the object they follow is Huo Qubing, and their respective subordinates are like clouds!

According to Huo Qubing's order, Jiujiu Lao Qin only brought 5,000 light cavalry, and the rest of the soldiers and horses were left to protect the baggage team, and then responded.

When the main force rushed forward lightly, the baggage team was actually moving forward.

"Lu Bu, Yang Dayan, Meng Tian, ​​Li Jue, the three of you follow me, Guo Si, you are guarding the food team."

Jiujiu Lao Qin brought Lü Bu's Bingzhou wolf cavalry and Li Jue's flying bear army, both of which could run for thousands of miles. Because Meng Tian's golden fire cavalry was heavy cavalry, Jijie Lao Qin was left behind. Meng Tian himself had the characteristics of dealing with aliens, so Jijiu Lao Qin would definitely bring him along.

"Chang Yuchun and Li Chengliang are enough."

The common cavalry generals in Mingguan are still these two, but whether Chang Yuchun or Li Chengliang, the ability to command the cavalry is very terrifying.

Huma brought Lian Po and Zhou Dewei two fierce generals, Zhao Long brought Shi Wansui, Han Zhanhu, and Tang brought Qin Qiong and Chen Dao...

If King Zuo Xian of the Xiongnu knew what kind of terrible lineup he was facing, he would definitely be heartbroken.

Huo Qubing, Lu Bu, Meng Tian, ​​Chang Yuchun, Li Chengliang, Lian Po, Shi Wansui, Han Chuhu, Qin Qiong...

Such a lineup can be one to ten!

It can be said that the Battle of Mobei blew up all the famous cavalry generals in the entire Eastern Han Dynasty. Even if he is low-key like Tang, he will bring Qin Qiong out.

A group of famous generals from the Eastern Han Dynasty assembled, Jin Ge iron horse, but in front of Huo Qubing, they did not even dare to take a breath.

Although some of them may not be inferior to Huo Qubing, even though Lian Po is much older than Huo Qubing, and even though Lu Bu and Shi Wansui's force is even higher than that of Huo Qubing, the battle of Mobei is Huo Qubing's home court!

"This trip, to Langju Xu Mountain, to the vast sea!"

Huo Qubing was full of pride, and the various princes and famous generals were infected and rushed to follow!

The Han army was 25,000, and the rest of the princes were 35,000 cavalry. The elite of the 60,000 elites abandoned the baggage team, carried dry food, and went deep into the desert to track the main force of the Huns!

In Mobei, Yizhi Xianyu was under his command. The defeated Youxian King was familiar with the road in the desert and fled to Shanyu's camp in a hurry.

Yi Zhi was stunned. He was almost completely sure that the leader of that side division was not Wei Qing, because Wei Qing was in front of him, approaching him.

Now it is only the partial division of Wei Qing who has already defeated King Youxian.

Yi Zhi Xie Shan Yu was hesitating whether to continue the decisive battle with Wei Qing in Mobei, or should he flee back to the Xiongnu Dragon City?

Even the Huns Longcheng is not safe.

Because Wei Qing and Huo Qubing attacked the Xiongnu Dragon City from the west and the east, even if they hid in the Dragon City, they would be destroyed by the two Han generals.

The Dragon City of the Xiongnu was not as strong as the fortified city in the Central Plains, and its defense measures were weak, and it was easy to be captured.

"How should we be?"

Yi Zhi Shanyu looked at Zhao Xin, who had served for the Han Empire for a period of time and was familiar with the fighting methods of the Han army.

"Wei Qing's troops are out of the desert, and the soldiers are exhausted. Let's fight Wei Qing as soon as possible. Use the mobility of the cavalry to defeat them one by one. Don't hesitate. Otherwise, the two Han troops will be surrounded and attacked, and our army will be defeated!"

Xin Zhao knew that the Han army's tactics of advancing in parallel also had shortcomings, that is, it was easy to be defeated by each, so he encouraged Yi Zhi Xie Chanyu to take the lead in defeating Wei Qing's cavalry, and then switch to Li Guang's cavalry to win the battle of Mobei.

Yi Zhi Xie Shanyu followed Zhao Xin's advice, assembled 200,000 cavalry, divided his troops between Zhao Xin and Youxian Wang, and used them as flanks to attack Wei Qing.

Taking advantage of the terrain, the Xiongnu chose to fight in the Gobi land where Wei Qing was sent.

No matter how high the morale of the Han army is, marching in the Gobi and the desert will consume a lot of physical strength. Then, it is the time to win!

The 200,000 Hun cavalry waited for work and began to set up their formations.

A war eagle hovered over the 200,000 Xiongnu cavalry, giving a bird's-eye view of the Xiongnu's camp, stretching for dozens of miles.

Wei Qing's cavalry came from the front, less than 80 miles away from the Xiongnu Shanyu and the main force of the Xiongnu.

Historically, Wei Qing's journey has not been easy.

Before the war, Emperor Wu of Han's information had gone wrong. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty heard that the Xiongnu Shanyu had arrived to the east, so he sent Huo Qubing out of the county to deal with the Xiongnu Shanyu, and handed over the brave cavalry elites of the Han Empire to Huo Qubing in command.

But the Xiongnu Shanyu did not actually go east to join King Zuo Xian, he stayed in the west, and turned out to be Wei Qing's elite against Xiongnu Shanyu and Shanyu. However, Wei Qing fought hard to defeat the Xiongnu Shanyu, and because of this, he suffered great losses in this battle, and none of his subordinates, officers and soldiers were vassals.

To a certain extent, Wei Qing and Li Guang had bad luck in this battle, Li Guang got lost, and Wei Qing was also trapped by the wrong information of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.
