Chapter 114: Heading North
In the northern frontier of Great Qin, there is Rong Di as a problem.
In ancient times, the East said Yi, was tattooed, there were non-fire eaters, the south was said to be barbarian, carved cross-toe, there were non-fire eaters, the West said Rong, was haired and clothed, there were non-grain eaters, and the north was said to be Di, clothes and feathers cave dwelling, there were non-grain eaters. The title of Rong Di first came from the Zhou Dynasty.
In the late Warring States period, the Hu people rose, and the Xiongnu were the most powerful. To the east of the Hu people there is the East Hu, and to the north of the Hu people there is Ding Ling. At the end of the Warring States period and after the Qin and Han dynasties, the so-called Beidi in ancient China all referred to the Hu people and the Eastern Hu ethnic groups. These ethnic groups, unlike the Central Plains Dynasty, which were mainly agricultural, would invade the Central Plains from time to time, burning, killing and looting, plundering the population and food, and were often the great enemies of the Central Plains Dynasty.
When the Six Kingdoms unified the world and returned to the Great Qin, this dynasty focused on the strategic deployment of defending against the invasion of Rongdi, and Meng Tian's 300,000 troops were stationed in the north, and the construction of the Great Wall was based on this consideration.
Rao is like this, Rong Di is still the main enemy of Great Qin, as for the old Six Kingdoms, the First Emperor does not care about it at all, even if there are one or two troublemakers, they are like grasshoppers after the autumn, and they can't jump too far.
Therefore, when Rong Di in the north began to offend the territory of Great Qin, whether it was Meng Tian in Beijing or Ye Zhiqiu, who was idle and boring in martial arts competition, they all went north and went to the north.
"These guys in the north are really impatient, and they dare to offend my Great Qin!"
With an edict from the First Emperor, Ye Zhiqiu left the prosperous land of Beijing, and Ye Zhiqiu did not have a good impression of the initiator of all this.
"Mr. Ye, my Great Qin is a country established by force, attaches great importance to military merits, we are not afraid of any opponent, even if it is the Six Kingdoms, it is also annexed by my Great Qin, what I am worried about is that Na Rong Di does not fight with our army, but robs and runs, if you don't chase, then watch them leave, if you chase, it is very easy to go deep alone, and you are cut off from retreating. ”
General Meng Tian spoke.
Neither he nor the soldiers of the Mengjia army had any fear of Rong Di, this was the spirit that Great Qin had fought for hundreds of years! The only thing they had to consider was how to find Rong Di's main force and then kill them.
"The soldiers and horses did not move the grain and grass first, it is easy for Rong Di to enter my Central Plains, but it is extremely difficult for me to enter the place where Rong Di is, just because of the grassland and desert land, the army is a problem, if it is too far away from the border pass, the lone army goes deep, not to mention food, water is a problem, if it is guarded by the pass, how can we kill the invading enemy?"
Ye Zhiqiu talked eloquently.
He can think of these things, and he can still talk about them, as for how to deal with the enemy and break the enemy when he encounters a battle with an army of 100,000, he really can't.
And if he encounters a big battle of 800,000 troops, such as the Battle of Changping, he is even worse than Zhao Kuo.
Han Xin's more troops are better, and as for him ordering troops, he can at most exert his strength to the extreme.
"What Mr. Ye said is right, for today's plan, it is to send more scouts to find out the news of Rong Di, and then make a decision!"
Meng Tian made a judgment.
Ye Zhiqiu and the army were stationed in the barracks.
The battle was not imminent, and many scouts left the camp every day to inquire about the enemy.
Know yourself and know your opponent, and you will not be defeated in a hundred battles.
Attacking without knowing the enemy's information is likely to lead to a great defeat or even total annihilation.
Ye Zhiqiu has not met Rong Di yet, but he has seen the orders and prohibitions of the Meng family's army, and the army looks like a military might.
"The reason why my Great Qin was able to win a hundred battles, in addition to being able to fight well, was that the bow was strong and the arrows were fast, and the armies of the six countries were not as far as Daqin's arrows, and every time Daqin's army went, they would routinely release arrows to test the enemy's situation and deter the Quartet, and no one could resist Daqin's attack!"
Meng Tian watched as his lieutenant general gave an order, and there were infinite sharp arrows cutting through the sky, seemingly covering the entire sky, and he couldn't help but think of the years back then.
It was the time when Great Qin unified the Six Kingdoms, and when Great Qin's arrow rain fell three rounds, the people who could live in the city opened the door and surrendered.
No one could have imagined that one day there would be a rain of arrows in the sky, and the rain of arrows would sweep through the houses and through the windows, and nothing would stop it, and no one would live wherever it passed.
"This is the equivalent of artillery fire covering positions in modern warfare!"
Ye Zhiqiu was quite shocked when he saw the exercises of the Meng family army.
He now understood what Meng Tian had said that day.
With so many arrows raining down, even the most powerful masters in the martial arts would be shot into a sieve, and they couldn't compete with the regular army of Great Qin at all.
Even if Ye Zhiqiu has a variety of weapons to protect himself, he has a certain amount of worries, what if these countless arrows break this variety weapon.
If you don't see it with your own eyes, you can't feel the psychological pressure brought by the rain of arrows in the sky, Rao is Ye Zhiqiu has seen the war between the Ming Dynasty and the Tatars, and when he saw the Daqin drill, he still couldn't help but be a little frightened.
If you don't have a variety of weapons, if you want to go against Great Qin, it will really be a dead end!
Of course, the most awesome martial arts person would not be stupid enough to meet Daqin's army head-on, and he would die a miserable death.
"I'm such a clever man, and now this army that can kill me is under our command, they are under my command, and I have a power to use, not to wear out my power. ”
Ye Zhiqiu found that the first layer of Qi Cultivation had already stepped into the path of cultivating true immortals, but he still did not have any qualifications to look down on ordinary people, because the army of Great Qin casually engaged in this kind of Qi cultivation realm cultivators.
If you want to not be afraid of the army, Ye Zhiqiu estimates that at least the foundation building period, or the Jindan period.
It has always been recorded in ancient books that if a golden pill is swallowed in the stomach, my life is up to me, and I must have reached that realm, and there is a way to resist the army.
After all, it's all "my life is up to me".
"Report! General Qiyu, my scouts have found a large force of enemy cavalry, about 3,000 people, heading to the southwest!"
On this day, Ye Zhiqiu's third day in the camp, a scout finally came to report.
The scout's face was full of exhaustion, and it was obvious that it was not easy to get information outside, but his voice was still loud enough for General Meng to hear him effortlessly.
The soldiers who can become scouts of the Mengjia army are the most powerful soldiers in the Mengjia army, and they are the most glorious soldiers of the Mengjia army!
After all, as a scout, you must not only be familiar with the direction, but also have the ability to fight alone, you can shoot a dead enemy with a bow from afar, and you can kill a dead enemy with a sword and a gun at close range, and you must be clever and not easily disturb the enemy, and you must be extremely loyal to Daqin.
Meng Tian is extremely relieved to be able to become a scout soldier of the Meng family's army, and each of these has been strictly assessed by him.
Seeing this, the great general Meng Tian immediately checked the map he carried, which was a county in Daqin.
"General Ben's order, the former general led five thousand cavalry to attack and test!"
With General Meng's words, Ye Zhiqiu set off again.
