Chapter 577: A Sudden Battle
[PS: The holiday is over, and the chapter of three thousand words will be restored. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info】
Everyone thought that this heavy snowfall would bring complete tranquility to the wilderness.
At least until the Spring Festival, it should be peaceful.
Unexpectedly, this tranquility was soon broken again.
No one expected that before the year, the fifteenth county town in China would finally be promoted.
The county town promoted this time is still a dark horse, and its lord is the [Earth-Turning] who ranked eighth in the ranking when Gaia settled the "year-end bonus" in the previous Gaia.
The world was turned upside down and he was rewarded with 20,000 merit points at one time, and was promoted to a third-class marquis in one fell swoop. After half a month of hard work, he finally completed the promotion task and promoted the territory to a first-class county town.
As a result, the fifth campaign was successfully triggered.
On January 15 of the third year of Gaia, a system announcement resounded in China.
"System announcement: China has successfully promoted fifteen county towns, triggering the campaign system, and the fifth battle, the Battle of Mobei, will be officially opened in three days, so stay tuned. Friendly reminder: The Battle of Mobei is a non-mandatory campaign scenario mission, and only the top 50 territories are eligible to sign up. ”
The battle of Mobei is finally coming!
In the fourth year of Yuanzhan, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty mobilized 140,000 cavalry, 140,000 war horses, 100,000 infantry and transporters, commanded by Wei Qing and Huo Quai, and marched to Mobei in the east and west.
When the Xiongnu heard the news, they shifted their baggage and deployed elite troops on the northern edge of the desert to meet the Han army.
After Wei Qing got out of the fortress, he learned that Shan Yu had not gone east, so he led his elite troops to march quickly, and ordered Li Guang and Zhao Shiqi to respond in a roundabout way from the east road. Wei Qing led his troops to travel more than 1,000 miles, through the desert, and engaged Shan Yu's headquarters, which had already been arranged. First surrounded by Wugang chariots, stabilized the position, and then sent 5,000 horsemen to fight.
At dusk, the wind rose suddenly, the sand and gravel hit the face, and Wei Qing took advantage of the situation to command the cavalry to surround Shan Yu from both wings.
Shan Yu saw that there were many troops in the Han Dynasty, the soldiers were strong and the horses were strong, and he expected that it would be difficult to win, so he led hundreds of elite cavalry, broke through and fled to the northwest, and the Xiongnu army was scattered.
Wei Qing hurriedly sent light cavalry to pursue, and led the main force to follow up. Until Yanshan Zhao Xincheng, 19,000 enemies were annihilated, and their accumulated millet was burned to return to the division.
Li Guang and Zhao Shiqi lost their way and failed to join Wei Qing in Mobei. Wei Qing ordered Changshi to summon Li Guang to the shogunate and asked him if he had lost his way and wanted to report to the Son of Heaven, but Li Guang committed suicide in shame.
After Huo Quai's troops went out of the fortress, he carried a small amount of heavy grain and grass, drove the captured Huns to open the way for the Han soldiers for the vanguard, crossed the desert, crossed the river and captured Shan Yu alive in the minister Zhangqu, killed the king of Beiche Qi, and then turned to attack the left general Shuang, and captured the enemy's military flag and war drums. He crossed Nanhou Mountain, crossed Gonglushui, and captured three people, including the king of Tuntou and the king of Han, and eighty-three people, including generals, Xiangguo, Danghu, and Duwei.
In this expedition, Huo Qubing led the troops with a loss of 10,000 people, and a total of 70,443 Hulu were killed.
Huo Qu was sick and sealed the wolf to live in Xu Mountain, Zen in Guyan, and returned to the Hanhai Sea.
After this battle, the Xiongnu fled far away, and there was no royal court in Monan.
After this battle, the three famous generals in the world also faced different fates.
The general Wei Qing offset his merits and did not receive a reward.
The veteran Li Guang committed suicide in shame, and the people heard it, knew it or not, and no old man was drooling.
Hussar general Huo Qubing was rewarded lavishly, and he was unparalleled for a while. Two years later, he died suddenly at the age of twenty-four.
There is no doubt that these three world-famous generals, especially Wei Qing and Huo Quzhi, a pair of peerless duo, will be chased by the lord players in this battle.
Even Ouyang Shuo is no exception. You must know that Wei Qing and Huo Quzhi are both listed among the top ten famous generals in ancient China, and they are the same existence as Bai Qi, Han Xin and others.
Just as Ouyang Shuo was sorting out the information about the Battle of Mobei, a system prompt suddenly sounded in his ears.
"System prompt: Congratulations to the player for having no clothes and meeting the conditions for participating in the Battle of Mobei. In this battle, regardless of the title, each lord can only lead a maximum of 3,000 troops, so please prepare in advance. ”
After Ouyang Shuo listened, he frowned.
With his current title of first-class marquis, according to the rules of the battle, he can lead 50,000 troops.
The number of three thousand is only the upper limit of the first-class earl's troops.
The comparison between the two is sixteen or seventeen times, which is really a world of difference.
Gaia has always adhered to the principle of fairness and justice, and will never change the rules of the battle without authorization because of Ouyang Shuo alone. It can only be said that this campaign, unlike previous battles, will be very different.
The title has always been the most important and core indicator that Gaia bestows on the lord.
Ouyang Shuo never believed that his first-class marquis would receive exactly the same treatment as a first-class earl. In this way, what is the point of the lords who have worked so hard to earn merit points?
As for what compensation it is, I'm afraid you can only know it when you enter the campaign map.
In addition to the number of troops he can bring, Gaia also has strict restrictions on the number of lords who can participate in the battle.
The existing territories in China are estimated to be around 500.
Except for some poor and remote places, they are basically promoted to third-level county seats.
If all the people participate in the battle, even if one lord leads 3,000 troops, it will be 1.5 million.
Gaia eliminated more than ninety percent of the contestants in one go.
Until now, it is extremely difficult to upgrade the county, and the difference in rank between the territories is no longer as obvious as in Gaia. However, this does not mean that there are no differences in the development of the territories.
In the ranking of China's territories, when the territory level is the same, the ranking of the territory is determined by the four territorial indices of politics, economy, culture and military.
The higher the composite value of the four indexes, the higher the ranking.
Previously, the battle for the ranking of the lord over the territory was only a battle for face.
The higher the ranking, the more face.
Since then, the battle for the territory ranking has involved real interests. After all, whether or not you can participate in a battle has a huge impact on the territory.
At worst, it is a missed opportunity to be promoted to the county seat.
In the future, on the premise of improving the level of the territory, the lord will also have to put more effort into the four indices of the territory. After all, these four indices basically cover all aspects of the territory.
In domestic and foreign affairs, there can be no shortcomings.
In order to temper the young lords, Gaia can be regarded as well-intentioned.
In this way, even if the top 50 territories in China all participate in the war, the total number of Inhuman Legions will only be 150,000.
I'm afraid that the Inhuman Legion will not be able to have a decisive impact on the battle of Mobei.
Because the number of troops is the same, the lords are rarely on the same starting line this time.
The military superiority that Shanhai City has always occupied is gone.
"This battle is not easy to fight!"
Ouyang Shuo let out a long sigh.
More importantly, how should the player lord choose a faction in this battle? Could it be that there are still players who will choose the side of the Huns who are doomed to failure?
Even if you want to fight and turn the tide of the war, I'm afraid you won't be able to pass the national complex.
Helping the Huns fight the Han army? It hurts to think about it.
Not to mention, there were simply no generals on the Hun side who were worth subduing. On the side of the Western Han Dynasty, there are three famous generals, plus a large number of deputy generals and barnyard generals.
How to pick the edge is really too simple a problem.
In this way, Gaia is not afraid, the Inhuman legions of the two camps, is there too much difference?
Among them, what kind of setting does Gaia have?
Everything is unknown.
Even Ouyang Shuo, who is a reborn person, doesn't know much about this.
In a previous life, information about this battle was revealed on the forum very limitedly.
Otherwise, Ouyang Shuo would have already started to prepare. All he could do was to make targeted preparations for the War Readiness Administration in light of the characteristics of the desert.
For example, the production of a large number of military food pills has been stepped up.
The desert march and the supply of grain and grass are the most difficult.
Otherwise, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty would not have conscripted more than 100,000 infantry troops to be responsible for the supply of cavalry.
Now Gaia is stipulating that each lord can only bring a maximum of 3,000 troops. In this way, many of Ouyang Shuo's arrangements were wasted at once, and they were useless.
"It's really a disadvantage!"
can only bring 3,000 soldiers, Ouyang Shuo doesn't have to think about it, just take 3,000 Shenwu Guards to the battle.
Since he could not dominate the number of troops, Ouyang Shuo could only plan and occupy some advantages in the individual combat effectiveness of the soldiers.
This advantage is not destined to be too great.
Let's ask, which one of the territories that is still surviving in the wilderness can't take out 3,000 elite cavalry? Elite cavalry, compared with Shenwuwei, although there is a gap, it is not a geometric progression.
As for the generals accompanying the army, Ouyang Shuo was not ready to recruit generals such as Bai Qi and Han Xin this time.
It's not that time can't be rushed.
With the system update, lieges' troops no longer need to go through a specific teleportation array to participate in the campaign. As long as Ouyang Shuo reports the list to the system, no matter where the troops are, they can be teleported to the battle map.
Gaia's setting is precisely due to the fact that with the expansion of the player's territory, the short preparation time of three days is no longer enough for the lord to gather all the troops to participate in the battle.
For example, if Ouyang Shuo can lead 50,000 troops this time, he must mobilize the three major group armies.
The marching time on the road alone is not enough.
At this point, Gaia is still very humane, flexible and not rigid in form.
Ouyang Shuo didn't recruit Bai Qi and the others, he really didn't want to make a big fuss. With only three thousand divine martial guards, for Bai Qi and other god generals, there really isn't much room for play.
Even if you count the allied forces of the [Mountain and Sea Alliance], the total army is less than 20,000.
Dispatching Bai Qi and others is inevitably a bit overkill.
Rather than that, it is better to leave them in the wilderness and continue to reorganize the army.
The three thousand divine guards were personally led by Ouyang Shuo.
By now, Ouyang Shuo can be regarded as a fierce general.
In addition, Ouyang Shuo is also preparing to recruit a staff officer with the army. The person he chose was none other than Zhao Kuo, deputy director of the General Administration of Military Affairs and director of the Operations Department.
