sweeping the world

Chapter 767 Compared with the Han people, you are scumbags

The Allied Forces from the Western Regions attacked from three directions, and Liu Rui led his army to easily defeat the forwards of one of them. Afterwards, Li Kuang also received battle reports from the other two places, all of which defeated the attacking enemy's forwards at a very small cost.

"People from the Western Regions are so ungrateful?"

"They are united by countries or tribes. The composition is too complicated. Even if they are willing to obey the command of the Kucha people, the organization and orders of each country and tribe are different."

It is also true that the Western Regions are a coalition of many countries and tribes, and then there are horse bandits who join them. Even if the Kucha people want to have a unified organization and order, those countries and tribes will not be willing.Furthermore, when there are more forces, there must be more thoughts. It is rare to be able to concentrate in one place, so what else do you want?
"Is there any possibility of showing weakness to the enemy?"

"This possibility is not ruled out, but..."

"Well..., there is really no possibility of a strong army in the Western Regions."

"Looking at the hundreds of thousands of years of history in the Western Regions, there is only one country out of Wusun."

In the past, Wusun was strong because he was able to pull out [-] to [-] cavalry, not because of how high his civilization was or how strong his army was.

Although the Western Regions are larger than the Central Plains, there are too many countries. Furthermore, this side is full of Gobi and deserts, and the environment in the Central Plains is different.

In the long-term history, larger countries in the Western Regions can be considered a big country if they can arm 2 people, and they can be considered superpowers if they can arm more than 5 people. Wusun can be considered a superpower in the Western Regions if they can arm [-] to [-] cavalry. But the so-called superpowers in the Western Regions can't change anything when they face external powers.

"The trouble in occupying the Western Regions is not in the war, but in how to govern."

"Fortunately, we don't have to care about how to manage it. We just hold the idea of ​​​​stop loss in the early stage."

Still the same sentence, the Central Plains is in a state of corruption, and the Han people don't care about smashing the Western Regions.

The current state of Han from top to bottom is only marching into the Western Regions with the idea of ​​robbing. It doesn't matter whether they can be defeated or not. The purpose is to grab more supplies and population.

Li Kuang originally wanted to separate three groups to fight the invading enemy. He even had a battle plan, but he had to give up later.

The reason was that Li Kuang had already received a notification from the rear that Xie An had led his army out of Yangguan, and would arrive within half a month if nothing happened.

"Zhonglang will come with a standing army, and the enemy will take the initiative to attack again. There is a lot to do."

"That's right. People from the Western Regions didn't detect our reinforcements coming, so they can use this opportunity to lure and annihilate them."

Not only did they give up the plan to go out to fight, but they also retreated more than 100 miles in six days, creating the illusion of a hasty evacuation. Some facilities in the camp were discarded, and some tents, food and grass were deliberately left behind. Part of the ordnance.

Li Kuang's Han army retreated, and the plan of the three coalition forces of the Western Regions to attack the Han army from different directions naturally went bankrupt.

The coalition forces of the Western Regions met in the original camp of the Han army, and 7 to [-] people directly entered the camp abandoned by the Han army.They were attacked that night by cavalry wearing Han army uniforms, and the Han army who had been hiding earlier emerged from the ground of the camp, and the fire spread quickly after wanton arson.

That is to say, people from the Western Regions are stupid. As long as they observe carefully after they enter the camp, they will inevitably find that there are too many hays piled up, and the orientation of the arrangement is also very particular.But after they entered the camp, they only scrambled for ordnance, tents, food and grass. They quarreled and even fought over the supplies left by the Han army. No one noticed that there was too much hay in the camp.

How many people from the Western Regions were burned to death and injured by a fire, I guess even the Western Regions themselves couldn't figure it out. When the camp was burning, all the people who could run around the periphery ran away, and the composition of the Western Region coalition forces was too complicated and chaotic.The number of casualties cannot be calculated, and the lost supplies cannot be calculated. Those who are alive are left with lingering fears.

"Promote that man named Uncle Liu to be the head of the village."

"There should be a role model."

Uncle Liu is Chi Zhelu!He performed very well in that attack on the camp. He first led the Han army to hide as a guide, and then led most of the troops to retreat safely. He captured thirteen enemy heads, one of which seemed to be a What "ghost blowing" is, indeed, he made a contribution right after he defected.

"Ghost blowing" is a direct transliteration. It is the leader of a tribe in the Western Regions. That tribe leader has more than a thousand people under his command, and that is a head equivalent to that of a commander.

Of course, it was impossible for Li Kuang to appoint Liu Bo as the head of the regular army, nor even the semi-official and half-civilian armed forces. He could only be placed as the head of the team selected from the Western Regions.

At present, there are not too many people from the Western Regions recruited by the Han army, that is, more than 2000 people. Most of them are Shanshan people, and they also include some messy horse bandits.They are counted as the establishment of the servant army.

Naturally, counting military merits and counting titles are two different things. At least people like Uncle Liu were rewarded with property before they were included in the Han nationality, and they would not get titles at all.

The Han army retreated for more than 100 miles and then stopped. The Western Region Allied Forces also stopped to rest after being burned. The armies of both sides had been separated by about a hundred miles and had not moved for six days. They only sent out scouts to closely monitor each other.

"Will the enemy troops retreat back to the White Dragon Pile?"

In the end, Li Kuang still had some regrets, but he also knew that regrets were useless. If they hadn't retreated far away, the Western Region coalition forces would not have entered the abandoned camps, and even if they entered the abandoned camps, they would not have been so careless. It is impossible to be perfect, and it should be enough to achieve such results.

What the Han army is uncertain about now is whether the Allied Forces of the Western Regions will retreat after that loss. If the Allied Forces of the Western Regions retreat, let alone lure and annihilate them.

"Words have been spread that there is a rebellion in the country, and we will go back to suppress the rebellion..." Fan Jin frowned and continued: "Since we stationed troops in Yangguan, the Western Regions don't know what happened in our homeland, and we can't get our homeland." You should believe the news, right?"

Before Han gathered the young and strong folks, the Western Regions were more or less able to spy on the information in the northwest of the Han Kingdom. The roads behind were blocked by the Han Kingdom, and even now there are rangers constantly cruising and guarding. It is difficult for the people of the Western Regions to get Han domestic intelligence.

Before the blockade, people from the Western Regions must have spied on the situation in the Northwest. Some time ago, there was chaos in the Northwest, and there was a large-scale arrest of criminals, and not a few people were killed.Then it seems that there is a relatively high degree of credibility for the rebellion in the Northwest?

"It's not too abrupt for us to stop here now." Li Kuang was also frowning: "We are going to retreat, and if we find them chasing, it is reasonable to stop again to avoid collapse?"

"..." Fan Jin was a little uncertain: "How about..., evacuate gradually?"

Li Kuang was silent for a while, calculating Xie An's itinerary, recalling the surrounding environment, and then nodded.

Both sides have arranged scouts to monitor, and there will be delays in spying out any news, and it is also possible that the person who delivered the news will be intercepted, but the news will eventually be known to the other party's high-level, the difference is only the length of time.

"The Han army is evacuating again." Baiku is the nominal commander in chief of the coalition attacking from Bailongdui. He looks a little miserable, his hair is burnt, his head is simply shaved, and his face is left with burns. The scar is the kind of swelling that seems to be pus: "The information about the rebellion in the Han people has become somewhat credible."

The current king of Kucha is Bai Chun, who ascended the throne of Kucha last year.

The surname of the Qiuci royal family is Bai, and they became the Qiuci royal family because of the support of the Eastern Han Dynasty.In the ninth year of the Jianchu period of the Eastern Han Dynasty (A.D. [-]), Banchao abolished Yuliduo, king of Kucha, and established Baiba as king of Kucha. Since then, the Bai family has been passed down.

The Bai family started as the king of Kucha from Baiba, and passed down for three generations. When Baishan became the king of Kucha, Kucha fell in love with Yanqi, another big country in the Western Regions.

Baishan sent his son to Jin State as a hostage, and took Jin State's thigh.

Later, the feud between Baishan and Yanqi King Long'an became more and more serious. At that time, the Jin Kingdom was entering a period of decline. Not only were the kings attacking each other, but also the barbarians were rising and rebelling continuously. The Yanqi Kingdom saw that the Jin Kingdom was completely gone. He had no time to control the life and death of Qiuci, so Baishan was attacked and killed by Long Hui, the son of Long An.

Longhui killed Baishan and conquered its capital city to become the king of Kucha. Because he often lived in the wilderness, he was killed by Luo Yun, a native of Kucha, and the throne of Kucha returned to the Bai family.

It was last year (AD [-]) that the Bai family became the royal family of Kucha again. After regaining power, the Bai family desperately needs to establish prestige, at least to offset the influence of the Dragon Society’s rule of Kucha, and let Yanqi have nothing to say , then there is no more direct option than resisting the re-entry of the Han Chinese into the Western Regions.

"Even if it's true, we..." Luo Yun looked at the somewhat embarrassed people in the tent: "It's hard to pursue immediately."

Luo Yun is the current benefactor of the royal family of Kucha. It doesn't matter who he was before, but now he is a general with real power.He was also in a state of embarrassment, his shaved head was covered with a wrap, and the left side of his face was also swollen.

Why do people from Kucha have the same name as Zhu Xia?It should be mentioned that the people of Kucha did not actually have a surname. Since Ban Chao took back Kucha and supported Baiba, Kucha has been slowly Sinicizing.At present, people with Chinese surnames are the mainstream in Kucha. People with a certain status will find a Chinese surname for themselves as soon as possible. Only some people who are nothing are not that particular.

Speaking of which, Qiuci was actually the second most loyal vassal state of the Han Dynasty in the Western Regions after Shanshan. Ban Chao's son Ban Yong made Qiuci the then-Qiuci state in the fourth year of Yanguang of the Eastern Han Dynasty (AD [-]). Wang Baiying surrendered, and then Kucha sent troops to join the Han army and attack the chariot division together. Later, the Kucha people also participated in the battle to defeat King Yili and King Huyan of the Xiongnu. They were still the kind who sent out troops and military expenses and brought their own dry food. Servant army joins the war mode.

Since the Han people are kind to the Bai family in Qiuci, why would Qiuci stand up as a vanguard against the Han?Isn't that a very clear thing, the Han Dynasty is long gone, even if it is still there, unless the Han Dynasty has been kept strong, otherwise there will be no kindness between countries.

The Shanshan people still remember the kindness of the Han people to them. It is because the Shanshan people are weak enough that they need to hug the thighs of the Han people's father again.

The people of Kucha don’t call the Han people’s father anymore, instead they regard them as enemies. It’s because the people of Kucha feel that they are strong, and they embrace the kind thighs from Hunnit, not to mention the stretched thighs of Xigaoche. come over.

Not to mention high-spirited when sending troops, but there is still some confidence. After a fire, everyone is so embarrassed, and there are only 5 to [-] people when they gather again. The number is equal to that of the Han army, but the supplies really need to bottom out , Let alone chasing, how to retreat is a problem.

Baiku has sent people to urgently collect military rations and corresponding supplies, which will be delivered in about four or five days.He believed the news of the rebellion in the Han people's country, and he had an idea about pursuing it.

If Baiku has less than three times as many troops as the Han army, he will not dare to fight if he catches up with him for a great battle.What he wants is a look of chasing. It is best if there is no major war, let the Han army retreat to Yangguan by itself, and then he can boast that he drove the Han army back, and then he will become a hero of the Western Regions .

Heroes are just attached to the prestige, Jieshi Baiku will become famous, and Kucha will also become a superpower in the Western Region, which is a good thing with many benefits.At the very least, Yanqi dares to show his teeth to Qiuci again?

What Baiku is hesitating now is, since the Han army has begun to retreat in batches, is it necessary to take action, or else even if the Han army really withdraws to Yangguan in the end, they will not compete with the Han army in a serious manner. What the fuck is wrong with being caught in the fire, how could his reputation be any better?

When Luo Yun heard the same truth, he gritted his teeth and said: "At most... three thousand cavalry can be dispatched." After speaking, he looked at Fu Jian, who had been silent.

Fu Jian was one of the people in the tent who didn't look distressed, and the other was Ku Le, the chief commander from Xigaoche.They did not enter the camp abandoned by the Han army at that time. They chose to camp outside to avoid being burned. However, the camp was also attacked by the rebel army later. It is impossible to say that there is no loss.

"It's your business to send troops to pursue." Fu Jian looked back at Luo Yun expressionlessly: "We will not send out a single soldier."

In an instant, the atmosphere in the tent became very strange. Luo Yun was extremely embarrassed, Bai Ku was annoyed and helpless, and the rest of the people were hesitant besides being annoyed.

Baiku had no choice but to say: "General Fu thinks that the Han people have a conspiracy and shouldn't pursue them?"

"I don't know if there is a conspiracy." Fu Jian was still looking at Luo Yun, and said without any emotion: "Lor Xia fought face to face with the Han army once."

Luo Xia is a member of Luo Yun's tribe. The so-called face-to-face battle means that three to four thousand people were taken away by the Han army.

"The Han people have a famous saying called 'poor bandits don't chase after' and 'sorrowers must win'." Fu Jiancai didn't care about those two famous sayings, and didn't intend to save face for anyone: "The Han army you are facing is not a poor bandit. , they were an army that did not suffer great losses."

There is no need for Fu Jian to say more about the latter, if the Han army is really in a hurry to go back to put down the rebellion, whoever bumps into it at this time must be mentally prepared to be hit by anger.

After thinking about it, Bai Ku's face immediately alternated black and white, and he really couldn't decide what to do.
