Unparalleled Concubine - v2 Chapter 1008
Chapter 1008 Grasp the Heart
Xianbei people are nomads. Basically, every household will herd horses and sheep. They go to war and usually ride horses that they have raised since childhood. Such horses can be used as war horses directly without training.
The horse farm is a place where horses are raised on a large scale and war horses are trained. Because every household raises horses, originally the Xianbei people did not need a horse farm specially for raising horses. In the first ten or twenty years, horse farms could only be set up in places with fertile water and grass, so as to increase the number of horses as soon as possible.
Now that more than 40 years have passed, the Xianbei people have enough horses, but the horse farms established decades ago have not been cancelled. The four Yuwen tribes have their own horse farms. The king tent of Yuwenzhao’s headquarters has four or five horse farms, raising a total of 70,000 to 80,000 horses.
Taking advantage of the emptiness of the Qigui clan, Li Xin broke up the Qigui clan with just one face-to-face meeting. However, the Qigui clan was not a particularly small tribe. He still had 80,000 to 90,000 people in the group. Li Xin was just a After they had dispersed their soldiers, if they continued to fight, three thousand people would not be enough to see in front of these Xianbei people who had bows and crossbows in every family.
Therefore, Li Xin immediately ordered to retreat after taking advantage.
Hundreds of thunderbolts were thrown down, and at least a thousand people were injured in the beggar department. This is not the inside of the gate. There is also spirits to sterilize in the gate, and a doctor to treat it. Outside the gate, no matter what kind of wounds, you have to rely on your own body to resist. , even if it is scratched by Tianlei’s pottery shards, it is possible to lose his life due to tetanus.
And Li Xin ordered fire everywhere. It was already autumn and winter, and the fire would spread very quickly. As a result, the casualties of the Qigui Division would probably reach 2,000 or more.
More importantly, the young men of the Qigui tribe have been transferred by Yu Wenzhao. The tribal warriors who came out to fight against Li Xin today are the last capable people of the Qigui tribe. Apart from these people, the rest Basically it’s old and young.
The last remaining combat power of Qi Gui’s team was greatly damaged, and they would definitely think about bringing back the ten thousand young men who were transferred away by Yu Wenzhao…
The 3,000 cavalry was said to be a lot less, but it could not be said to be too much. It was very flexible to retreat. Only half an hour after Li Xin’s order, these cavalry were fully withdrawn from the Qigui Department. Under the leadership of the middle-aged man, he ran towards the horse farm of the Qigui Department.
At this time, it was already early morning, and the moonlight shone down, vaguely illuminating the road ahead.
Ye Mao rode behind Li Xin and sighed: “Uncle, we managed to touch the vicinity of Qigui’s department with great difficulty, and after fighting for more than half an hour, my hands didn’t get warm, so I withdrew, it’s really too bad. It’s worth it.”
Ye Gongye glanced at Li Xin, and then continued: “Just now, the defense line of the Qigui Department was directly blown up by… Tianlei, I will kill it, not to mention killing the Qigui Department to exterminate the clan, at least let them die. Ten to twenty thousand people!”
Li Xin sat on the horse, looked back at Ye Mao, and said indifferently: “It’s only been about half an hour, we lost three or four hundred lives in the beggar department. Go down, and it won’t be long before we all become hedgehogs there.”
Ye Mao scratched his head and continued to ask: “Then what are we going to do at the racecourse?”
“Go get some food and rob the horses from the racecourse.”
Speaking of this, Li Xin squinted his eyes and smiled: “One beggar department, the weight is not enough, the next is the Helan department, if we can manage the Helan department again, the Yuwen departments will definitely have conflicts. Yuwenzhao will also withdraw from Jimen Pass ahead of schedule.”
Together, Yuwen’s troops are only a million people. Yuwenzhao has assembled nearly 200,000 troops near Jizhou this time. Calculated according to one family of five, that means that every family has already gone out. Going to war alone, conscription of this scale is absolutely impossible in Guannai.
It is quite difficult to be able to levy one tenth or even twenty one in a pass.
The reason why the Yuwen Department was able to achieve such a scale is that firstly, everyone had no food to eat, and had no choice but to go to Dajin to grab it. Second, Yuwenzhao’s own king’s tent had more than half of its troops, which could call on the other three. Department to do their best.
But…that’s it.
Sooner or later, they will obediently exit Jimen Pass and go back outside the pass.
There is no way, tyrannical combat power may allow one side to win two wars in one war, but this kind of war that has risen to the level of a national war will ultimately be fought not by combat power, but by population, national strength and financial strength.
These determine how far and how long the war can be fought.
With the current capabilities of Yuwen’s tribes, after they captured Jimen Pass, even if Dajin did not make any resistance, they would just grab more food and people in the northern Xinjiang, and when they had enough, they would naturally return to the outside of the pass. Digesting this wealth is unlikely to threaten the Jiangshan Sheji of Dajin.
It is also for this reason that the capital side is not particularly interested in the situation in the northern border, because whether it is the emperor of the Weiyang Palace or the Zaifu of the Shangshutai, he understands in his heart that no matter how fierce the trouble is in the north, it is nothing more than more deaths in the north. The common people cannot threaten the Jiangshan Sheji of the Great Jin Dynasty.
And the rebel army in the southwest that can fight the forbidden army is a real threat!
The chaos in the north can be sorted out slowly when you free up your hands in the future, but the situation in the southwest cannot be delayed even a day!
Of course, if the imperial court does not curb it, the Yuwen Department will grow rapidly after this incident. If they can enter the customs frequently, after ten or even decades, the Yuwen Zhou who once set foot on the Central Plains is very likely to become Reappears again.
Ye Mao followed behind Li Xin, frowning.
He opened his mouth and said, “Uncle, the Helan clan is the largest clan other than Yuwenzhao King’s tent, not to mention 3,000 people, even if we have more than 10,000 people together, it is unlikely to pose any threat to the Helan clan. …”
The Helan clan is a large clan with a population of nearly 300,000. Although Yu Wenzhao has recruited more than 30,000 strong people to go out, it is estimated that there are still tens of thousands of fighting forces in the clan. Li Xin wants to deal with Helan like Yuwenzhao. Ministry, it is almost impossible.
Li Xin rubbed his temples, and then said slowly: “Yuwenzhao put in great effort in order to break down Jimen Pass. At least 100,000 people have been deployed in his royal tent. Now the king tent is extremely weak.”
The Marquis of Jing’an said lightly while riding a horse: “It’s good that Yuwenzhao belongs to the Northern Zhou royal family, but the Northern Zhou Dynasty has been wiped out for more than 40 years, and few people will recognize him as a royal family. The second child, then there is no reason not to want to be the first.”
“If you grasp this idea, you can easily find a breakthrough. At most, let the imperial court make Helan a king as well.”
The two walked and talked.
Under the bright moonlight, the horse farm of the Kgyu tribe could already be vaguely seen.
Taking advantage of the bright moonlight, Li Xinjing looked in front of him, then turned around and said to Ye Mao: “According to the information I received, there are about seven or eight hundred guards at this racecourse, all of whom are young and strong from the Beggar’s Department. Can you take it down before?”
The bellicose Ye Mao’s eyes lit up and he patted his chest fiercely.
“Within an hour, your subordinates will definitely take over this racecourse!”
