Chapter 1160 The Battle of Han and Hungarian (4)

Wei Qing led a tens of thousands of cavalry corps with the Hu Ben Army as the core, and set out from Shuofang County to directly enter the south of the desert to attack the troops of the Youxian King.

In order to provide him with cover, the lost king Li Guang and others attacked from the Youbeiping area to restrain the tribe of the military ministers and Zuo Xianwang.

As for Huo Qubing, who was rising like a comet, he led a cavalry group with the Yulin Army as the core and attacked the Hexi Corridor neatly.

Another large-scale battle between the Han and the Huns broke out again.

Compared to the Han Dynasty, the Huns had no strategy at all.

The blind cat hit the dead mouse before and took the initiative to attack, but it was easily resolved by Wang Xiao.

Now, with Wang Xiao's side restraining, cutting off the middle lane, and opening up strategic areas, the entire Huns' top leaders were in chaos.

What's even more terrible is that their Great Shanyu military ministers were in very bad health at this time and were almost at the point where they could die at any time.

The Huns did not dare to tell the military officials on their sickbed that the Han army had launched another large attack, fearing that he would be stimulated.

But the ambitious Yi Zhixie thought this was a very good opportunity.

Yi Zhixie was very smart. He could see that the Han army's continuous attacks would pose a huge threat to the Huns.

At this time, Junchen, who occupied the position of the Great Shanyu, did not even have the ability to deal with it. He thought that Junchen would die soon, and then he brought the Huns to deal with Wang Xiao's offensive.

He bribed Junchen's favorite concubine and exposed the news of the Han army's massive attack to Junchen.

The very sick military minister forced himself to lead the army to the war after learning the news. But he fell off the horse shortly after he got on the horse, and the fall was completely lost.

When the war was fought in front, the Great Shanyu was dead behind. The Huns were immediately in chaos and could not even deal with the Han army's offensive.

Junchen Shanyu's son Yu Dan inherited the position of Shanyu with the support of a group of nobles.

But his uncle, King Zuo Guli, Yi Zhixie, simply refused to admit it and sent troops to attack his nephew.

The front line was still fighting, but the Huns royal court started fighting on its own.

In this case, if the Han army still cannot win, it will really throw its face to the Roman Empire.

Wei Qing, one of the three most powerful cavalry commanders in China, suddenly rushed into the south of the Mo with elite cavalry and launched a raid on the right wise king of the Xiongnu who was still hesitating to support who would become the Great Shanyu.

There was no warning message here at the Youxian King. It was not until Wei Qing's army appeared near his royal court that he was shocked to realize that he was going to be in trouble.

As a result, there was nothing to say. The royal court of the Right Xian King was completely defeated. Tens of thousands of prisoners were killed, and nearly 20,000 herder slaves were captured, and the entire royal court was destroyed.

The powerful Youxian King tribe was almost completely destroyed by Wei Qing. The Youxian King was almost fleeing to the distant land of the desert.

The strategic significance of this battle is that the territory of the Huns was cut open from the south of the desert.

The Hexi Corridor and the Western Regions lost the most convenient passage with the Xiongnu royal courts.

If you want to communicate, you have to take a detour to the distant Mobei.

When Wei Qing attacked the Right Xianwang, Huo Qubing also brought more than 20,000 elite cavalry out of Longxi Road and directly entered the Hexi Corridor.

The so-called Hexi Corridor actually refers to a long piled plain sandwiched between the Qilian Mountains and the Kunlun Mountains in the area west of the Yellow River.

Through this passage, you can directly reach Dunhuang and other places, and then walk westward, which is the Western Regions.

To put it bluntly, this is the place of Liangzhou.

Wuwei Jiuquan, Jincheng Dunhuang, and Longxi Anding.

Huo Qubing's tactics are similar to Wei Qing, and they both choose to hide their whereabouts and then quickly attack.

This is the real strategic deterrence of cavalry. The legion that combines cavalry with infantry and uses cavalry as auxiliary forces cannot fully utilize the powerful raiding capabilities of cavalry.

The armored forces of cavalry are similar to those of the modern world, and it is a waste to use them to attack.

Making full use of the cavalry's super high movement ability and quickly raid the enemy's weak places is the king.

In the past, this kind of tactic was used by nomadic people to fight the Central Plains, but the three cavalry commanders all used this tactic in unison, and in turn used it on these nomadic peoples.

Huo Qubing led an elite cavalry corps dominated by the Yulin Army to enter the Hexi Corridor and drove straight in, ignoring the small tribes along the way and the cattle, sheep and horses everywhere. They all rushed down and then continued to move forward without stopping.

He had only one order, that is, to move forward and then move forward.

With a large number of Huns guides, Huo Qubing was very accurate in finding the target. He never missed the water source on the road.

After a forced march for half a month, Huo Qubing's troops crossed Yanzhi Mountain and encountered the main force of the Huns in the Hexi Corridor at the foot of Gaolan Mountain.

At this time, Wang Xiao in the sky could see clearly. Because of the long-term forced marching, even if each cavalry was riding in rotation with three or four horses, at least thousands of people were still behind. Moreover, both the people and horses were exhausted and needed a rest urgently.

But Huo Qubing did not rectify the military and military repairs at all. Instead, after encountering the main force of the Huns, he immediately urged the entire army to rush over directly.

The Huns never expected that the Han cavalry army would appear here, and Huo Qubing rushed directly without repairing it, which made them feel even more confused.

Within two days, the battlefield where the fierce battle between the two sides stretched for hundreds of miles. Almost all Huo Qubing defeated the Huns, and then drove the Huns to flee as if they were driving away ducks.

Once the battlefield becomes a defeated battle, the cavalry's advantages will be fully utilized.

After defeating these Huns, Huo Qubing still had no rest. He ignored the reasons such as his troops being left behind and fighting damage, and only had less than half of the troops left, and he bit the Huns' defeated soldiers and chased them desperately.

This pursuit led to the bank of Heihe River at the foot of Qilian Mountains.

There are several Hun tribes grazing here, which is one of their core pasture areas.

The fleeing Huns originally wanted to escape here to warn and seek help, but unexpectedly they attracted Huo Qubing, the killing star.

The Hun tribes, caught off guard, hurriedly gathered herders to fight.

But although they are many, they don’t have time to gather together in panic.

The result was that Huo Qubing defeated each of them, then drove the defeated troops to attack the next tribe, and then defeated them again.

The Huns were completely beaten crazy. They finally gathered together the herdsmen and wanted to fight, but they were all ranked and were dispersed by the defeated soldiers in front. Then Huo Qubing's elite cavalry followed him and rushed over and drove away. As a result, they could only become defeated soldiers after they were defeated, and they were driven to the next tribe like cattle and sheep.

This fierce battle lasted for three days and three nights, and the many Hun tribes under the Qilian Mountains were all swept away by Huo Qubing like the autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves!

As for the final result, it started from Huo Qubing's breakthrough into the Hexi Corridor to the end that it completely defeated many large tribes of the Huns here.

From beginning to end, nearly 50,000 people were killed, and the number of prisoners was far beyond that.

Even the Hunxie King tribe, one of the eight major tribes of the Huns, was frightened by Huo Qubing. The tribe of tens of thousands of people did not even resist. When Huo Qubing arrived on his horse, he simply chose to surrender.

It is said that Huo Qubing beats the Huns to wet their pants, which is really not a praising. The Huns were really beaten by Huo Qubing and were afraid of being beaten.

He rode his horses to attack thousands of miles, defeating dozens of Hun tribes of all sizes. He killed more than 100,000 captives. Even if he attacked one by ten, the Huns could not defeat Huo Qubing.

Such a terrifying record was never so brilliant even when Meng Tian defeated the Huns more than a hundred years ago.

The Huns in the Hexi Corridor were really scared. Wherever Huo Qubing's banner went, the Huns either fled or surrendered directly, and they had no courage to fight Huo Qubing.

He fought from Yanzhi Mountain to Qilian Mountain, completely defeating the Huns in the Hexi Corridor.

The captive Huns sang tragically, "Lost my Yanzhi Mountain, makes my women have no color, and lose my Qilian Mountain, makes my animals not live in prosperity."

In this battle, Huo Qubing defeated more than 100,000 Hun herders with 20,000 cavalrymen, and captured more than 100,000 people.

As for cattle, sheep, horses, tents, etc., I really can't count them clearly. Anyway, there are all over the mountains and fields.

Among the many prisoners, there were many senior Xiongnu leaders.

There are hundreds of people with names, princes and nobles, prime ministers, generals of the Yan clan, etc.

In fact, there are more people who die under Huo Qubing's knife, which is too lazy to count.

Among the many spoils, some of them were brought back to Chang'an City by Huo Qubing.

That is the Xiongnu's golden sacrifice to heaven.

At the foot of Gaolan Mountain is the place where the Huns worship their ancestors, and those Jin people are used to worship their ancestors.

Perhaps modern people think it is no big deal, but in this era of "only name and instruments cannot be faked", sacrificial supplies are the roots of everyone.

Huo Qubing seized the Xiongnu Jin people who sacrificed the heavens, which was equivalent to cutting off the Xiongnu's sect and country and cutting off their incense inheritance.

If this were in the Spring and Autumn Period, the country would have perished.

There is no doubt that this merit is unprecedented in this era of sacrificial sacrificial sacrificial sacrificial sacrificial sacrificial sacrificial sacrificial sacrificial sacrificial sacrificial sacrificial sacrificial sacrificial sacrificial sacrificial sacrificial sacrificial sacrific

"The land in Hexi is divided into four counties: Wuwei, Jiuquan, Zhangye and Dunhuang. Military garrisons are set up and the city is built. Another 500,000 immigrants are immigrated to the real borders of these four counties. As for immigration conditions, it is the same as those in Henan."

At the Weiyang Palace meeting, Wang Xiao told the master's father Yan, "You can slow down other things, but the straight road must be practiced as soon as possible, and you must practice it well."

The Lord Father Yan did not politely to Wang Xiao, who was increasingly powerful, but directly complained, "Your Majesty, there is no such thing as practicing straight roads that can come quickly. You can only practice slowly. If you really practice to Dunhuang, it will take at least ten or eight years of effort."

Of course, Wang Xiao would not be shocked and exuded the turtle-like aura and shouted, "Don't talk nonsense, just do it if you ask you to do it."

He asked seriously, "Where is the difficulty? Tell me out and see if there is a solution."
