sweeping the world

Chapter 942 Of course it is the first to act first
It is the truth in the world that people die for money and birds die for food!
The morale of the Western Regions people who received the promised reward was greatly boosted, so they would not worry about killing people who looked like themselves, blinded by the golden five baht coins, eager to get more five baht coins.

Their team pursued the fleeing Shujie people, and the furthest they pursued was about a hundred miles away. After slowly regrouping, they brought back a large number of horses, cattle, sheep and prisoners, and even nearly a hundred of them. camel.

Zhuxia didn't have native camels. They got some camels from Zhang's Liangguo in the early stage, but the number was pitifully small.After marching into the Western Regions, some camels were seized in several wars of annihilating the country one after another, and some were confiscated or purchased from the people. It was only in the 13th year of Yuanshuo that the number of camels exceeded [-].

"If you enter the desert, you can't live without this kind of animal." Li Bing stroked the cheek of a camel with surprise on his face: "This kind of animal can store water after drinking it. It is a living water bag."

For a Shujie tribe with a population of only about 3, it was a surprise for them to capture nearly [-] camels. Compared with the nearly [-] camels, about [-] horses, [-] cattle and [-] Although the value of tens of thousands of sheep is relatively high, for the Western Region Protectorate, which is already planning to enter the desert, every camel is extremely important.

What kind of spoils were seized, each person needs to register, and it will be calculated after returning to the barracks. Individuals get [-]% of the registrations and seize them, [-]% are handed over to the army, and the remaining [-]% will be distributed to those who have nothing.

"Don't care about those followers who hide it privately?"

"It's not time to care."

You can't expect people from the Western Regions to know what the rules are, and you can't expect people from the Western Regions to turn over all their confiscated items. You can't hide big things, but you will definitely hide some small things like jewelry secretly.

Now those followers of the Western Regions are very useful, there is no need to do anything to hide the loot, let them continue to secretly enjoy the arrival of the next dispatch.

The Han people are now willing to indulge the retinue of people from the Western Regions because they firmly believe that no matter how much those retinues of the Western Regions gain, they must belong to the Han people in the end.

There must be casualties if there is a fight. The enemy's corpse is buried in situ, and the enemy's wounded need to see the condition of the injury.

The Han Empire is still short of labor. If the value of the rest of the prisoner's life can exceed the use of medicine, the Han people are still willing to save him.

It is really impossible to save, or the cost of treatment exceeds the value of the rest of the life of the prisoner of war, and the suffering of the prisoner of war will be ended mercifully.

You can treat the hostile wounded so neatly, but your own side will be more complicated, for example, you should at least put on a show for the followers of the Western Regions.

In one battle, more than 300 people fought about 46 people, 21 people were killed in the battle, and [-] people were seriously injured, and minor injuries were not counted.

After the casualty ratio was counted, Su Ren's evaluation was: "Before we face the Hunnites, there may not be many of them left."

The Han people will not spend too much money to treat the seriously injured people from the Western Regions. Whether they can survive is purely to see if they can survive.

However, according to past experience, comfortable beds, coupled with attention to hygiene, necessary disinfection and anti-inflammation will be done because it will not cost much, one or two out of ten should be able to survive.

Even with that ratio, the Western Regions followers felt that it was already a miracle. If they had taken care of them themselves, it would be too much for five of the seriously injured to survive.

It's all because people in the Western Regions don't know what hygiene is at all, and they don't understand that disinfection is anti-inflammatory. The real situation is that except for the Han people who have mastered this popularized knowledge, not many people in other countries and nationalities know that paying attention to hygiene is good for the injured. how important.Not to mention that the Han people have always been ahead of other nationalities in the research on medicine from ancient times to the present. The preliminary researches are the Romans, Persians and Asan.

"It has been confirmed that we will go to war with the Huns." Su Ren smiled and said to the officers under the establishment: "We need more cannon fodder."

When they heard that they were going to fight the Huns, the officers all showed surprise and happiness.

What soldiers are most afraid of is peace. Once there is no war, they will not lose their existence value so seriously, but how can they obtain glory and merit?If you don't have any meritorious service, you have to rely on your qualifications. You don't know how long it takes to improve your official title. The title of title does not depend on time to upgrade.

There is a war for soldiers... especially for the Han army who are in the war zone and going to fight, they will naturally be terrified when they hear the coercion of war, but today's Han army has no place for coercion at all, even It can be said that as long as you are not hopelessly cowardly, you should abandon your cowardly side if you follow the group to win again and again, and become a tiger wolf who howls when you hear war.

"It's really great!" After Wang Yanxi finished speaking, he couldn't help but feel a little confused: "I heard that in China...", he shut up halfway through the sentence, because some things are not something that a village head can make irresponsible remarks.

Not to mention other aspects, only from the fact that the Western Regions Protectorate has only one army establishment, we can roughly see some clues, that is, there is no plan to continue to expand westward for the time being.

But now they are going to fight with the Hunnites again suddenly, and the scale seems to be quite large. They are surprised and happy, but at the same time they are inevitably confused.

The current general situation of the Han Empire is to focus its resources on recovery and development of internal affairs.

After the 13th year of Yuanshuo, there are still not many places where there are still actions. Occasionally crossing the border to bully the Rouran tribal alliance is not a big move. ending.

The end of the war in the Northeast refers to the end of the remnants of Tuoba and Murong. Before these two remnants were left behind, it was mainly Liu Yan who was thinking about the need for a place to sharpen the knife of the army.

During the 11th year of Yuan Shuo, Tuoba remnants and Murong remnants began to hook up with Donggaoche. In fact, this was something that the Han Empire had long expected. Their hookup would become the reason for the Han Empire to declare war on Donggaoche.

At the beginning of the twelfth year of Yuanshuo, things showed signs of deterioration.Not only the Tuoba remnants, Murong remnants and Donggaoche colluded together, but there was intelligence that because of the fire in the grassland, even the Rouran tribal alliance got involved.

A multi-party alliance is emerging in the northern border of the Han Empire. If the Rouran Tribal Alliance really joins in, it will definitely involve Xigaoche.

At a certain stage, the Rouran Tribal Alliance was almost a dog of the Han Empire.They are unwilling to continue to be dogs, and even want to bite the Han people, which is equivalent to no longer cutting off the connection between Xigaoche and Donggaoche, and even because of their alliance with each other, the enemies of all parties in the northern border of the Han Empire will be linked. Became one piece.

"The reason why we want to fight Hunnit is precisely because of new changes in the situation in northern Xinjiang."

Li Kuang originally thought that his term of office would be to continuously suppress the resistance of the people of the Western Regions. The Center first sent to sort out the unstable factors in the jurisdiction. He had already guessed something unusual. What he did not expect was the order to invade Hunnit It will be sent after half a month.

"The matter in northern Xinjiang has nothing to do with us for the time being." Zhao Chang did not deliberately put on a straight face, and continued to say with a smile: "Our war against the Huns must scare them all at once, so that the Huns People tremble when they hear the word "big man!"

Those who can climb to the rank of captain and above are not too stupid, they immediately understand the significance of this military invasion.

It is nothing more than a big move in the northern border, and the Hungarians should not feel that there is any opportunity to take advantage of. They will passively wait for the Hungarians to think that the Han people have a chance to invade the Western Regions in the northern border. The center is more willing The land took the initiative to order the Protectorate of the Western Regions to carry out a military invasion.

If it is necessary to fight, no one side will choose to deal with it passively. No matter how strong the strength is, the passive side will inevitably be confused before the war breaks out.

There are quite a few examples where a powerful country is suddenly invaded by a country weaker than itself. Even if a preventive plan has been prepared in advance, after the war really breaks out, many plans are really just a response to the record. Most of the time it is Can't use it anymore.

Li Kuang, as the protector of the Protectorate of the Western Regions, was absolutely unwilling to accept the invasion passively, and liked the order of the center to attack proactively.

The Protectorate of the Western Regions has only one army establishment, and it is doomed that it is impossible to form any effective defense deployment on the border with a force of 5000.

Although the Protectorate of the Western Regions can recruit and arm more than [-] Han Chinese within half a month after the outbreak of the war, the front line will definitely be corrupted, and it is certain that there will be no good situation in the rear. He didn't treat people from the Western Regions very gently.

Not to mention the Western Regions, even if it is the northern border, if the enemy invades militarily, even if there is a Junji Mountain Colonel's Department as the corner, there are regular frontier troops on the long border, and there is a mobile unit of the army. Do you not believe that the Han army still has to wait until the enemy invades the Yanmen County area before the Han army can launch an effective counterattack?
That has nothing to do with whether the Han Empire is strong or not, it is just a simple distinction between active and passive military.

Between the strong and the weak, the strong country is strong even if it is beaten for a while, even if it pays a high price to block the enemy's offensive, but the strong country can still organize a strong force after reacting , Relying on a strong foundation to prepare materials, having lost hundreds of battles in the past, when you really react, you can turn the situation to your advantage, and even rely on the only remaining foundation to directly crush the enemy who invaded you.

Li Kuang is not a time traveler, so he can't say too many battle examples.If he is a time traveler, he can use those countries during World War II as negative teaching materials.

Those are two examples of countries that are not weak but because they don't have enough strategic depth, they don't even have time to make changes to their mistakes.

Another example is the Soviet Union.

In the early days of the Soviet Union, it cannot be said that there was no military preparation. The 260 million troops on the border were not fake, and the "big thunderstorm plan" was not a fiction, but because the German army took the lead, they were beaten to the capital.

If the Soviet Union had a smaller population and the bearded man had no steely will, even if there were repeated blood transfusions from Uncle Sam, even if there was no government-in-exile later, Mao Zi would have to be an Asian.

"The Protectorate of the Western Regions is a part of the Great Han." What Li Kuang meant was that although there is still a homeland behind it, the current strength of the Protectorate of the Western Regions cannot guarantee that the Western Regions will be safe if Hunnit first strikes: "If it happens In the follow-up that needs local support, the value of the Western Regions Protectorate will be doubted."

All the officers had serious faces. If the Western Regions were to be attacked and swept by the Hunnites first, even if they hadn't died in the invasion, no one would have the face to step back through Yumen Pass or Yang Pass.

"The deployment of this battle is as follows." Zhao Chang signaled Zuo Liao to lift the shelf hanging the map of mountains and rivers, and began his duties as a long history: "The two divisions dispatched, the division on the right will be equipped with [-] Xiaoguo and The entourage, the division on the left side will be matched with ten thousand Xiaoguo and the entourage..."

The map of mountains and rivers is very detailed, where are plains, where are mountains, Gobi, deserts or swamps, where are water sources, etc. are marked.

Looking at the matching forces, the right side has the most troops, but the right side is actually a feint attack. On the contrary, the left side is the main force of this invasion.

The right path is to take Xiuxun, enter the ancient Dawan territory, and step on Chen Tang's previous conquest route, that is, pass through the ancient city of Zhizhi, "borrowing the way" to live comfortably, attracting the attention of the Hunnites, and at the same time invade a Keep Kangju.

For the less troops on the left side, they will lurk in Taohuai for a period of time, confirm that the main force of the Hunnites has been attracted by the troops on the right, and then cross the Penchi River to invade the territory where the Hunnites live for the Shujie people. Advancing westward directly into the hinterland of Hunnit.

"This is the early battle plan." Zhao Chang glanced at Li Kuang, and then continued after getting approval: "Before launching the invasion, we have already cut off the threat of the Western Regions. Listening to your feedback, the Western Regions are not suitable for reuse?"

Regardless of whether it was before or recently, the appearance of the followers of the Western Regions is indeed relatively bad, but no one would be foolish to say why they did not arm the followers of the Western Regions, or did not train those followers of the Western Regions properly. Bundle.

"The guardian has decided to recruit more followers."

No one was surprised that Chief Zhao made his decision. Most of the officers had experienced the founding war and subsequent wars. How could they not know that controlling the young people would stabilize the place? They were going to invade Hunnit and fight on the way. To build Kangju, we must continue to carry forward that good "tradition".

"Data compiled from various aspects..." Zhao Chang returned to his seat, picked up a text and read it before continuing: "It has been initially decided to recruit at least 20 people."

There should be about 200 million people in the Western Regions now. If 20 people are drawn, the young and strong people in the area will almost be empty.

Zhu Yang, who had been arranged to stay behind, had a smile on his face. He had sufficient experience in how to manage and restrain the young and strong folk.
