Chapter 342 The situation in Haixi
In the spring of 173, Kushan, which had been silent for a winter, finally broke out. Jia Nisega led a 100,000 army to attack the northern provinces, and wanted to eliminate his brother and the forces that gathered under him. However, he still underestimated his brother. His brother had no intention of fighting head-on. All the important cities under his control built and reinforced the city walls, prepared enough food to defend, and all the cavalry that could fight in his hands were sent out to harass and attack.
The food road of Lingyan Jia Nisega. After three months of fighting intermittently, Lingyan Jia Nisega knew that his brother was planning to waste with him, and it depends on who had a good foundation. Although he possessed the royal capital and the treasury fell into his hands, the population of nearly 400,000 in the capital was not fake. Now his decrees are only valid in the capital and surrounding areas. Those local officials either wait and see or hook up with his brother. The longer the war is, the more unfavorable it is for him.
In the end, the Lengyan Jia Nisega had no choice but to withdraw his troops and continue to fight, but he suddenly consumed food. After returning to the capital, he began to seize the provinces closest to the capital as Li Ang and Murong Ke expected. However, after he ate two provinces close to the capital and were not very large, Helian Bobo and Xue An, who had been dormant under his brother, stabbed him with 50,000 cavalry and burned several granaries attached to the capital. In this way, he would not be able to launch a large-scale war for the next whole year.
, he could only send troops to defend his existing territory. After returning to the capital, the furious Lengyan Jia Nisega investigated the nobles and ministers in the city under the misguidedness of Liu Yu and Chen Baxian. Although many traitors secretly interacted with his brother, he never knew it. It was Liu Yu and Chen Baxian who really leaked his defense, which made Helian Bobo and Xue An feel as if they were no one to avoid the important and avoid the important. He burned his heavy grain storage area without any loss. Under such calculations, the Kushan battle for the throne became evenly matched, and no one could do anything to anyone.
Just when the Kushans were actually split into two countries to fight against each other, the Huns ignited the war again on the northern border of the Qin Dynasty. Because when Li Ang was the general, the Qin Dynasty defeated the Turks and obtained a large area of territory, but no people were willing to migrate, so they were always in a state of no government control. Although the Turks and tribes that surrendered were mainly Daqi, they were not much inferior to the independence. Later, the Turks who surrendered rebelled and plotted against the three thousand tiger and leopard cavalry that were stationed, which led to the Beiting Protectorate's Office to launch a large army to conquer.
As a result, these Turks played wolves tactics with the Qin army on the vast grassland. They were in groups in the east and in the west, with a small number of people. They just harassed and fought and ran away as soon as they suffered losses. In the end, the Beiting Protectorate decided to follow the example of Emperor Taizu's construction of fortresses on the grasslands. In the former Turkic land, they built a fortress fortresses that ran thousands of miles across the Turkic land, and gradually eliminated the Turkic cavalry. However, they did not expect that the Huns intervened and allied forces with the Turkic people to raise an army to compete with the Qin on the grasslands. At the same time, they started a war with the Qin on both sides.
Relying on the role of a fortress that integrates the attack and defense of the Great Wall, the Qin army and the Huns' subway cavalry began a large-scale battle on the grassland. In the end, the Qin army stabilized the front line at the Beihai line. Relying on the fortress group built on the grassland during the Emperor Taizu as a place for supplies and food storage, it stalemates with the Huns. In the nearly two months of war, no less than 100,000 casualties were lost to both sides. Cao Anmin originally wanted to use it to reinforce the new army in Hezhongdi, but finally allocated to the northern border, with a total of nearly 500,000.
The troops confronted the Huns on the vast grassland, and at the same time, a large amount of supplies and food were transported to the fortress group under the escort of heavy troops. Due to the failure in the river and the two-month battle on the grassland, Cao Anmin and the entire court clearly realized that the Qin army was no longer the invincible royal army in the past, and the Xiongnu who had been recuperating for more than a hundred years, imitating the rules and regulations of the Qin Dynasty and drawing skills from Rome were not the barbaric nation that was beaten to fleeing in panic by Emperor Taizu.
What's more, in Greece, Sparta, one of the most powerful city-states, hated the Romans extremely. During the Roman rule, countless Spartans were regarded as gladiators and became playthings of Roman nobles. After Greece reindependence, this hatred became even stronger under the conscious guidance of the Qin Dynasty. It can be said that even if the Qin Dynasty's power withdrew from Greece, the Romans would not want to conquer Greece without killing all the Spartans.
Under such circumstances, Rome had no other way except for force. This time, the main target of Rome's army was Greece. Unfortunately, the Romans did not expect that Li Ang sent a terrifying pair of generals, Chen Qingzhi and Ran Min.
Ran Min, the strongest infantry commander, got the most suitable source of troops for the training of heavy infantry in Greece, and in just three months, he pulled up an elite army of 30,000 people. In addition, the six thousand Modao Hands brought by him and Chen Qingzhi, which was 36,000 heavy-armed infantry that could face the cavalry directly on the battlefield.
