Although Yanbei always shows confidence in front of people, it seems that he has never been worried about the big war that will take place in the spring of next year. Writing "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info but his heart is actually more apprehensive than any insider.

Because it's not just Gongsun Chan who has to worry about.

As the saying goes, the shadow of a tree's name. The prestige of the white horse general Gongsun Zan was already known to women and children in a county in Liaodong when he was still a small governor of Liaodong. For the long history, more than ten horses outside the plug rode back to Xianbei and returned victorious. When he was the governor, he rode 3,000 horses, pursued more than 100,000 Wuhuan riders under Zhang Ju and Zhang Chunqiu, and defeated them to 30,000...... How can this kind of military feats be done by the brave champions of the three armies?

Ask yourself, whether in the past or now, even if Yanbei thinks that he is enough for a man. But compared with what Gongsun Chan did, he Yan Erlang still couldn't get on the stage.

The final battle report between Gongsun Chan and Zhang Chun, Gongsun Chan only had 3,000 men under his command...... But after a winter, will Gongsun Chan only have 3,000 subordinates?

What's more, Gongsun Chan also has a court lieutenant general by his side, Meng Yi!

One is a majestic and heroic general in Liaoxi, and the other is a battlefield general who has been promoted through meritorious work...... He Yanbei is a rebel, how can he be?

But he must fight, many things are indeed difficult, but when a man is alive, how can he retreat from the difficulties?

In life, there are all kinds of mistakes. But the poor and the lowly can't be moved, but the mighty can't be bent!

If he only listened to the prestige of Gongsun Zhan, he was so frightened that Yanbei lost his heart, and Zhang Chun would not be saved, so how could he be worthy of the 20,000 Paoze brothers who rushed north to help, and how could he be worthy of Jiang Jin and other old departments?

Besides, even if he fights Gongsun Zhan, he is still alive, and his brother Pao Ze is still alive, will Liu Youzhou really accept him?

He didn't know.

Although he thought that if he could defeat Gongsun Zhan, he would force Liu Yu to use him to maintain the situation, Yanbei was not optimistic about this.

He is making preparations with both hands, even if Liu Yu doesn't accept him, he can't just be a human and a fish...... He has already calculated that after the beginning of spring, the southward direction will be a point of no return. If Liu Yu doesn't accept him, he won't run away. Capture the entire Liaodong, self-proclaimed Liaodong Taishou, and take over the whole county!

He followed the Tiangong general Zhang Jiao, and also fought for the Mitian general Zhang Chun.

This time, if there was no other way, he was willing to lift the steel knife for himself.

……

Years ago, everything went according to plan. The soldiers' winter clothes have been prepared, although simple and crude, they can cover the cold wind. The seven large battalions for 20,000 soldiers and horses and the Chinese army camp in Yanbei have all been set up. A series of military orders against the guards were also conveyed by the officers of the first rank and one rank, and all the soldiers were admonished on the school grounds.

The two tribes live together in the hope of surviving this winter. Now most of the Suli Xianbei tribe has no hostility towards the Han people in Yanbei, and he is afraid that there will be a soldier who will do something to bully the tribe and add trouble to this winter.

But now it seems that his worries are unfounded. Under the northern part of Yan, the easiest to make trouble and bully people are those Yellow Turban remnants...... However, these wicked people with bad conduct were almost beaten by Yanbei when they were in Zhongshan, and now it is more effective for them to restrain their subordinates.

In contrast to Yanbei's dedication to maintaining a relationship, it is the upper way of Su Li and Tu Fugu and others...... They have no bad feelings towards Yanbei personally, and even have a slight good impression. As for Yanbei's soldiers and horses, they are more afraid and worried, just as Yanbei is worried that his unruly subordinates will bully these Xianbei people, and the people in the Xianbei tribe are also worried that they will be bullied.

Both parties deliberately make friends, and there is nothing that can be established in this friendship.

By the end of the year, the rough and heroic people of the tribe had already appeared, and invited the Han soldiers wearing iron armor and fur coats to sit on the animal skin mats around the fire in the felt tent and drink and sing...... There are even a few soldiers from broken backgrounds who plan to marry Hu Niang and go home, but Yan Bei temporarily suppressed this kind of request under his command.

This is a matter for him to consider in the long run.

In the spring of next year, what he needs is 20,000 fat and strong warriors raised in the hinterland of Xianbei, not more people who have returned to their hometowns with their families. In the whole army, I am afraid that few people take the big battle of the beginning of spring to heart.

The completion of the camp has reduced the burden in Yanbei's heart, and the whole army has breathed a sigh of relief, and the New Year is approaching, and the morale of all the generals has also been relaxed, and the standing training has been from once every two days, to once every three days, and once every five days, until the end of the year, no one has mentioned the matter of military training...... Yan Bei saw these changes in his eyes, but he didn't want to say anything.

Suddenly, the last snow of the fifth year of Zhongping swept through the north in the wax moon, casting a goose feather on the grassland.

In these years, every country and race is the same, and the upper class nobles have endless entertainment methods, and when they reach the lower class, they are pitiful...... And when it comes to ordinary soldiers in the army, there are only a handful of entertainment items.

Hand-to-hand fighting, cornering, and jujueping, are all entertainment items of physical confrontation, and the closer to the New Year, the more reluctant people are to move, for fear of bumping into a bad New Year. So much so that the six games and cockfights and dogfights are popular in the army.

In addition to these, all that remains is to drink and eat meat around the fire.

Yan Bei and others are no exception.

There were still five days before the Chinese New Year's Eve, Chen Zuo supervised hundreds of people to rush to the final naan cake and meat, and Wang Yi received the work of making firecrackers in Yanbei's hands...... In this era, there were no gunpowder and paper cannons, people just cut them with bamboo and throw them into the brazier on Chinese New Year's Eve to make them burn with a 'crackling' sound, which is also the origin of firecrackers in later generations. However, they are in the grassland of Saibei, and it is not easy to find bamboo, even the Suli Department, which has nearly 10,000 people, and there are only a few spears made of bamboo poles, which are still weapons exchanged with Han merchants a few years ago.

In addition to Wang Yi, a group of close old brothers around Yanbei could all be gathered, plus Su Li and Tu Servant Bone and several small leaders gathered together in the felt-made Chinese army tent.

The copper stove with charcoal fire is assumed to be in the four corners of the room, and a huge bonfire is piled up under the roof of the tent in the middle of the ventilation, which makes the whole felt tent steam, and it is like a spring day.

"Suli, it's almost Chinese New Year's Eve, and five years of Zhongping have passed." Yan Bei crossed his legs like a Saiwaihu man, raised his eyebrows at Su Li, who was sitting on the side, and asked, "Does your tribe have any customs such as sacrificing ancestors at that time?" ”

"Yes, of course." Su Li smiled, raised his arm and wiped his mouth full of sheep fat with the sleeve of his fur coat, and said with a happy face: "Our sacrifice is very simple, kill some livestock, cry twice and sing a song, and a group of people dance around the witch, even if it is over...... Then the wine and meat are enough, and the people get drunk, even if it passes. ”

Su Li's words made Yan Bei couldn't help but laugh, and he glanced at Gao Lan Luyi and the others, and they all laughed.

In fact, the strong penetration of Han culture over the past few hundred years has made the surrounding ethnic groups have their own special lifestyles, but more of them have leaned towards Han culture and become roughly the same. Especially like Xianbei and Wuhuan, when the Huns dominated the grassland at the earliest, Xianbei and Wuhuan were still of the same race, and were called Donghu by the Han people. Donghu is divided into two parts, the north is called Xianbei, and the south is Wuhuan.

In the New Year's sacrifice, they are almost the same as the Han people, but the gods they worship are different, and they just cry two more times.

"In this way, this year we may spend a Chinese New Year's Eve together as Han and Xianbei people on the grassland." Yan Bei spread out his hands and didn't say much on this topic, but instead asked Gao Lan, Lu Yi, Fu Zhi and many henchmen: "Do you think that the combat strength of our troops and horses can be compared to the national soldiers of Han County?" ”

Frustrated and frowned, Gao Lan lowered his head, Jiang Jin, who was sitting and drinking, put down the wine pot and smiled happily, waved his hand: "No matter what the county soldiers, as soon as the soldiers and horses of the seventh school come out, they will kill him and abandon the armor!" ”

The impassioned statement failed to attract much approval, and the drunken Wang Yi was about to high-five and applaud, but was pulled lightly by Sun next to him, only to find that Yan Bei frowned, opened his jaw and snickered, Gao Ran was silent, and he was speechless...... Even Wang Dang and the others had serious faces and didn't dare to say much.

Only then did Wang Yi realize that among the more than 20 higher-level school officials, there were two embarrassed-looking Xianbei people, Su Li and Tu Fugu.

After a very short silence, Yan Bei waved his hand and smiled, skipped Jiang Jin's words, and asked Gao Ran and Zhang Jaw with a pair of sword eyebrows: "The two of you have been in the army for a long time, and you must be very clear about the combat power of the county soldiers...... Why don't you talk about it? ”

Gao Ran and Zhang Jaw glanced at each other, and finally a subordinate who was a few years younger cleared his throat and said to Yan Bei: "There are 20,000 soldiers and horses in the general's department, and the elite cavalry, foot soldiers, and crossbow formations are all selected. ”

It's stronger than the county soldiers, what a big praise!

But Yan Bei's face still didn't have the slightest smile, and the young rebel general in charge of the crowd was used to hearing what others hadn't said between the words. Yan Bei changed his relatively comfortable posture and asked in a deep voice, "What if the army is in a duel?" ”

"The military array duel......" Zhang Jaw glanced at Gao Lan with a wry smile, I am afraid that this offending sentence will have to be said by myself, "If you divide and attack, the seven will leave three alone." If the army fights in formation, Sun and Lei are left and right, Li and Wang are in front and behind, Jiang and Wang are in front, and Koji and Gao are trapped in Chen, then eight can protect six. ”

Trapping the Chen team, meaning the same as trapping and ascending first, is the elite soldier among the elite soldiers, and the building will be overthrown!

The so-called split attack is to lead the troops with each captain. Zhang Jaw means that the captains of the various departments can probably only stay in the three departments of Lu Yi, Gao Lan, and Sun Qing. If the large army battle is reasonable and the distribution is reasonable, even the eighth Xiaoya Army, which is the pro-army of Yanbei, will be sent to be the trapping team to fight against the same number of Han troops, maybe the eight troops can protect the six.

This data is not optimistic, and the large army formation operations in this era are different from those of small units. In the battle of three or five hundred people, even if they are defeated, people don't have too many selfish thoughts in their hearts, even if they lose, they will fight to the death. However, the large army formation is different, if one team is defeated, the morale will be invincible, if the morale is invincible, one will be defeated, and if one is defeated, the armies will lose their flanks, and the whole army will be defeated.

If the army fights in formation, and the battle damage is not broken, it is no longer a recruit. If you still don't lose the battle after 30% of the casualties, then you are an elite soldier.

In fact, the meaning of open jaw is that it will collapse at the touch of a button!
