Chapter One Hundred and Fifteen Achievements
A real man was born in the world and rode a horse on the battlefield and made achievements. This was Huang Yuan's ambition. Therefore, when the Turks fled into the Great Rail, he led people to chase him without thinking.
After repeated fierce battles, I gained a lot of people, but when I walked back, I realized that the situation was wrong: What kind of broken place is full of gravel and no water?
By the time Huang Yuan and his subordinates were found, they were almost thirsty and their mounts were gone. The head he had won was with him and he did not abandon a companion.
They fell in a dead wood, like dead fish half-dried in a dry puddle.
Each of them looked gray, their eyes were dull, their lips were chapped, and their throats seemed to be on fire. The mount had already killed him and drank blood to quench his thirst. He walked for several days and had blisters on his feet, so he couldn't walk smoothly.
Seeing the friendly troops handing the water bag, Huang Yuan and his subordinates almost desperately snatched it, and tried their best to pour it into their mouths.
Next to him, he led a team to search for the Turkic tribe and rescued Xiao Moha, who had lost his allies, stood beside a dead tree, looking at the words engraved on the trunk:
Poyang Huangyuan is not here.
Poyang, whose surname is Huang, can easily remind people of the current queen family, and Xiao Mohe is very familiar with the name "Huang Yuan".
He led his troops to pursue the Turks who fled north and made great achievements. After the pursuit, he turned to search on the edge of the Great Rail.
Then he heard the rescued wounded soldiers mention that their team was chasing the remnants of Turkic soldiers into the Dalu, but they didn't know where to end.
Among the team is Huang Yuan, the nephew of the current queen.
"Thanks to General Xiao found this place." Huang Yuan whispered, because his throat had not recovered yet, his voice was hoarse, "Otherwise, this is really the place where Huang's burial is."
Xiao Mohe said that searching and rescuing lost friendly forces was the right thing to do. Huang Yuan looked at the "Epitaph" engraved on the dead tree trunk and smiled: "These words finally came in use."
Xiao Mohe looked at Huang Yuan scraping off the words on the tree trunk with a knife, looking at the wind and sand around him, looking up at the sky, he saw a gray area.
Looking at the pocket watch again, it is twelve o'clock now, but because of the strong wind and sand, it seems like it is evening.
Xiao Moha, who was on the edge of the Great Moraine, recalled what he saw and heard since his attack, and sighed in his heart: If he had not taken this place with him without a guide, he would have lost his way...
Huang Yuan scraped the bark clean and talked to Xiao Mohe again: "In the past, when I read books, I said that the Han army fought with the Huns, and many generals were often lost, resulting in missing opportunities or returning in vain."
"I was wondering at the time why those generals were so easily lost."
"Now, I know, this ghost place has no local guide to lead the way, so it would be strange if I don't get lost..."
Huang Yuan said this, looking at the wind and sand around him, and then looking at the compass in his hand, he was still scared:
"Fortunately, there is this thing. In the windy and sandy moraine, we couldn't tell the direction with our eyes just by looking at the pointing of the compass and walked back with our back."
Xiao Maha also has a compass, and this directional device is widely distributed to the soldiers participating in the war.
The soldiers also have pocket watches with accurate departure times, which allow them to estimate the distance and position of the march based on the marching time and the "standard speed".
In addition, a large number of guides arranged to lead the way with the army and recognize the way to ensure that the cavalry who rushed into the vast grassland would not run around like headless flies.
Only when he is well prepared can he have his current brilliant achievements. Xiao Mohe was quite excited when he remembered his side’s gains in the past few days.
This time, the imperial court concentrated cavalry, and the emperor personally led the army to attack the Turks with his main force. His troops and horses attacked for days since the battle in Sanggan City, and beat the enemy to fleeing.
After the Battle of Wuzhouchuan, they began a great pursuit.
The pursuit lasted for more than ten days. Over the past ten days, various groups of Chu army have been chasing each other, leaving the Turks without a way to go to heaven and no way to enter the ground.
Fierce battles and victories again and again. Although the soldiers were exhausted, they all gritted their teeth and completely defeated the Turkic army.
The imperial court gathered a large number of cavalry to attack this time, which was a fierce knife to the Turks, slashing the opponent seriously injuring him, and he would definitely not be able to recover within several years.
Now, on the edge of the Great Rail, looking up, although the eyes were gray, Xiao Moha felt for the first time how great the Han army's achievements in expedition to Jibei, defeating the Xiongnu and sealing the wolf and Juxu Mountain were.
This is the unparalleled contribution made by Hou and General Huo Qubing of the Han Dynasty. "The Entrustment of Wolf Juxu" is the highest military goal in the hearts of countless warriors.
Xiao Maha has ambitions since childhood and wants to make achievements, but he did not expect that he could come to the distant northern grassland and fight with the nomadic army on the grassland.
So, when can the official army cross the Dali, go straight to the north of the Ji, find the Turkic royal court, and fight a hearty decisive battle?
After some rest, Xiao Mohe led his subordinates and rescued friendly troops to set off south, and as he walked, he met with another team.
The team also searched on the spot after the pursuit, searching for its own lost people.
Then, based on the statements of the rescued personnel, they entered the Damad and found some friendly troops.
And they had a great gain: the escaped Turkic Yehu Ashinakutou was killed by a soldier on his side.
Now, the body of Asunakutou and the soldiers who made contributions were brought back by them.
Xiao Mohe and his subordinates were shocked at the body carried in the carriage and the dying soldier with braided hair, saying: "This is a great achievement!"
Many people looked at the braided soldiers with envy.
Huang Yuan looked at the body, then looked at the soldiers who could breathe, muttering in his heart:
You are also lucky. If this group of people think about it, regardless of your life or death, they will take away the body of Kutou and take you credit, and you will cry without even crying.
But then I thought about it and thought that there were soldiers in the army, military supervisors, and military officials, who took advantage of merit and won merit, but because it was difficult to cover it up afterwards, most soldiers would not "take risks".
Besides, they saved the meritorious soldiers who killed Turkic Yehu, which was also a great achievement.
Huang Yuan thought about it and felt mixed emotions: I was desperate, and I also chased into the Dahe River, why didn’t I touch any pants, sheep’s heads, horse’s heads, and cow’s heads?
......
In the evening, after the wind and sand, Wang Lin, next to a lake on the grassland, was in the Chu army camp, looked at a body in front of him, and then looked at several Turkic prisoners, asking in Turkic words:
"This person is really Ashinakutou?"
The men nodded blankly. Seeing this, Wang Lin looked at the Khitan chiefs who were helping with the war and asked in Khitan, "Can you recognize it?"
"I can recognize that this person is Kutou." The Khitan chiefs replied. They looked at the Turkic Yehu who was once high and above, thinking about their humble appearance in front of the other side, and were shocked.
What awesome! The Turkic Khan's younger brother Kutou and his nephew were all shot by the Chu army!!
"Since that's the case, you can deal with it." Wang Lin told the people and asked someone to take the Turkic prisoners down.
The Khitan chiefs respectfully congratulated Wang Lin: "Envoy Wang, this is a great victory!"
"Our emperor will definitely win the battle in person." Wang Lin made a decision first, and then said: "Of course, the soldiers are also bound to use their lives and the strong assistance of you."
This made people feel very comfortable after hearing this. The Khitan chiefs who had just planned to deal with the matter before going to war were smiling.
Wang Lin continued: "For this great victory, you have made great contributions. Your Majesty will be rewarded. Next, what should you do about the matter on the grassland? You should give your Majesty more suggestions."
Several Khitan chiefs couldn't help but say yes when they heard this, and their eyes narrowed down with a smile.
He almost patted his chest and sweared to make a cow and horse for the Emperor of Chu.
Originally, when they were called by the Emperor of Chu to help the war, they were unwilling to accept the sweetness of participating in the border city of Yingzhou, so they bit the bullet and led their troops to help the war.
Of course, there is another reason, because the "King Envoy" in front of him is a good person and worthy of trust.
The king was the governor of Youzhou and was in charge of border cities. He also studied Khitan language and gave them a lot of precious iron and salt.
Physicians were also sent to various tribes to treat patients. They were willing to send troops to fight for the Chu army because of the enthusiasm of the King of Envoy.
Of course, the "witchcraft" that Wang Enjun sent someone to use is also the reason why the Khitan chiefs led their troops to help the war: whoever is disobedient will be in trouble.
However, trust is trustworthy. The Khitan chiefs were scared by the pressure of the Turkic army a few years ago. How dare they really serve Chu and fight against the Turkic people?
So, they thought about it and helped each other after the two sides fought.
If the Chu army was defeated by the Turkic army, of course they would "remedy if they knew the mistake" and pursue the remaining troops of the Chu army for the Turkic Khan. If the Chu army wins, they would follow the Chu army to pursue the Turkic people.
Anyway, tough battles cannot be fought, only smooth battles.
However, unexpectedly, the fierce Turkic army was beaten by the Chu army to suffer heavy casualties, many people died, and surrendered and captured were too many to count.
Even Khan's younger brother and nephew were finished.
In this way, they of course have to show their "loyalty" to Chu State.
After all, the Emperor of Chu said that after the Turkic army was resolved, the rules on the grassland would be changed.
Wang Lin talked to several Khitan chiefs for a while, and waited for him to leave, and slowly walked out of the tent.
He looked at the camp tents that were rising and falling in front of him and the vast amon in the distance, and couldn't help but think of a folk song "Chi Lechuan" from the north:
At the Chile River, under the Yin Mountains, the sky is like a dome, covering all the fields.
The sky is vast and the wilderness is vast. The wind blows the grass and sees cattle and sheep.
Looking into the distance, Wang Lin breathed a sigh of relief on the southern horizon, looking at the vague black shadow like a wall in the distance.
There was the Yinshan Mountains, and he had led his army across the Yinshan Mountains, entered the grassland, and fought with the Turkic army.
When Wang Lin was young, she had an ambition, which was to be a great hero that everyone admired.
But the specific reason why you become a big hero is hard to figure out. Anyway, you have to make many friends and do a big career.
When you grow up and have a clearer ambition, you are making achievements.
But he didn't expect that he would have such an opportunity to make achievements in his lifetime.
Wang Lin was in charge of Youyan, and wanted to be wary of the attacks of the Khitan tribes in western Liaoning and western Liaoning, and also guard against the invasion of the Turks. So he thought of a plan to take the initiative to change the situation in the north.
He won over the Khitan tribes, used them as servants, and bribed the grassland tribes to prepare guides for future combat.
From the Qi State surrendered to the stroke, soldiers with combat experience were selected and assigned to various divisions as "grassland combat guidance."
It took a lot of time to prepare for a large-scale proactive attack.
His idea was supported by Li Li, who also brought the most elite imperial army to the expedition and personally used bait to enter Hengzhou and lured the Turkic army to attack.
Wang Lin led another army to gather near Huaihuang, waiting for an opportunity to attack, and gave a fatal blow to the Turks who collapsed and fled north.
During this attack, the court concentrated a large number of cavalry, which could be said to have taken out all the belongings in Hebei, just to take advantage of the Turks' unresponsiveness and not familiar with the combat capabilities of the Chu army and give a heavy blow.
Now, the Chu army has won a great victory, and the Turks have suffered a lot of casualties, many people have died, more captured people, and many powerful figures have been lost.
In this way, the swaying Khitan tribes in western Liaoning and western Liaoning, as well as the small tribes on the grassland, can be used by the court.
Only by resolving the threat from the Turks (with certain morale), the court can free up its hands and concentrate on dealing with the Qi army retreating to Hedong.
Several people came over, with a pale young man with braided hair. Wang Lin looked at the man and asked, "You are Yu Dou?"
