Chapter 7 Zhu Hai Comes to Cast
It is their responsibility to defend the territory of China, but they have old people and young people. They need military pay to support their families. Zhao State owes them two or three years of military pay, and they have to rely on debts to make a living. The family is living a tight life. If Qin State pays all these military pay, their families will no longer have to live such a hard life. Is there anything that makes them more happy?
"Young Master, you didn't lie to us?" Some generals still didn't believe it.
Qin and Zhao were originally a mortal enemy, and it was no longer valuable for Qin to send troops to reinforce. Who dares to expect Qin to make up for the military pay owed by Zhao? This is really a luxury.
Even Li Mu didn't believe it.
The State of Zhao owed 20,000 yuan for the two or three years of military pay, which was a considerable amount of money. Although Qin was rich and powerful, he had to consider it seriously.
"It's true!" Qin Yiren understood why they didn't believe it, and smiled and said, "The Qin Dynasty wants a whole world, not only to have a territory, but also to take over the responsibility of fighting Hu on your shoulders! Only in this way can the Qin Dynasty truly have a whole world!"
This is very convincing and very convincing!
In history, Qin Shihuang's unification of China was not only a unified territory, people's hearts, words, weights and measures, but also the important task of resisting the Hu people.
Meng Tian defeated the Xiongnu, which was to take over the important task of Zhao's fight against the Xiongnu; Wang Ben chased into Liaodong and scared away Donghu, which was to take over the important task of Yan's fight against the Donghu; Tu Sui led 500,000 Qin troops south to the ridge and attacked the Baiyue land, which was to take over the important task of Chu's fight against the Baiyue.
"Okay! Pick!" Although these Zhao generals didn't have much favoritism towards Qin Yiren, the prince of Qin State, they still had to cheer loudly. Who said Qin Yiren is so bold?
"So brave! Good courage!" Li Mu and Sima Shang looked at each other, nodded slightly, and were deeply impressed.
Fighting against the Hu people is a bottomless pit and consumes a lot. If someone else had changed, he would never say such words, but would avoid them for fear of being afraid of them. And Qin Yiren actually claimed that if he had to take over the heavy task of attacking Hu, is there anything more amazing than this?
"Your food, weapons, and military pay will be delivered soon." Qin Yiren waved his hand and said, "You all retreat, I want to discuss military operations with General Li."
Qin Yiren must have come here to discuss military operations with Li Mu. The matter was secretly completed. The fewer people knew about such major military operations, the better. The generals bowed and said: "Promise!"
It is completely different from the way he didn't take Qin Yiren seriously just now. Although they can't let them be completely in love, at least they have developed a good impression of Qin Yiren and Qin State.
"Young Master, I'm leaving." Sima Shang clasped his fists and was about to retreat.
"General Sima stayed." Qin Yiren stopped him from withdrawing and said, "General Sima also needs more advice."
Although Sima Shang is not as outstanding as Li Mu, he is also a good general. If he can win over, Qin Yiren will naturally not miss this opportunity.
"Mr. Xie." Sima Shang was really surprised to be able to participate in such a confidential matter, and he was not pretentious and stayed there.
Qin Yiren ordered, Li Si and Han Fei and others walked in quickly and greeted Li Mu and Sima Shang.
Li Si and Han Fei originally wanted to come in with Qin Yiren, and Qin Yiren kept them and face Li Mu and the others alone. The advantage of doing this is that once successful, Li Mu and the others can have a better impression.
Qin Yiren and the others sat down and formed a circle.
"I just arrived in the north and although I have some understanding of the situation of the Huns, I am not very familiar with it. I would like to ask General Li and General Sima to talk about the situation of the Huns." Qin Yiren spoke slowly.
"Young Master, the Huns who arrived in Longcheng have far exceeded our expectations, with no less than one million people, and there are no less than half a million people who control strings..." Li Mu immediately introduced the situation of the Huns, which was similar to what Li Chong said.
After hearing Li Mu's introduction to the situation of the Huns, Qin Yiren asked: "In the opinion of General Li, how should we fight this battle?"
Li Mu is a rare military genius, and it is very necessary to listen to his opinions.
"Young Master, if Qin sent few troops, we can only guard the city and not make the city misleading." Li Mu raised his brow, like a sharp sword unsheathed, and was greatly excited, saying: "Now, Qin sent 300,000 troops, we no longer need to guard the city, but should attack."
With the strong combat power of the Qin army, 300,000 Qin troops were enough to defeat the Huns and take the initiative to attack, which could only give the Huns a greater blow. Li Si had a good vision.
"Here. Daihai!" Li Mu pointed to the Daihai land on the mountains and rivers and said, "It is the best place to set up an ambush."
"Daihai?" Qin Yiren raised his eyebrows, very surprised.
In history, the second time that the Huns had been verified in the history of the history of the history of the Huns was ambushed by Li Mu in Daihai and was defeated. They were unable to recover their vitality for more than ten or twenty years.
It was precisely because of this battle that the Huns were greatly damaged and could not threaten the border of China in a short period of time, giving Qin Shihuang a favorable opportunity to concentrate all efforts to eliminate the six countries.
It can be said that if Li Mu had not set up an ambush in the Daihai and severely damaged the Huns, the war of unification launched by Qin Shihuang would have had more variables. It is very likely that the Huns would have taken advantage of the Qin State's large-scale advance eastward and marched southward to capture the Hetao territory as they are now.
If this is the case, Qin Shihuang might have to suspend his advance eastward and concentrate his troops to defeat the Huns first.
"General Li, Daihai is indeed a good place, but will the Huns definitely come?" Li Si was not good at military affairs and was a little worried.
"I'm sure that the Huns will definitely come!" Li Mu was confident and said a little high-pitched, "First, because Daihai is in a must-pass place for the Huns to move south, if the Huns want to capture the Hetao land, they have to pass there. Second, the Huns must meet two conditions for camping, water sources and pastures. The Daihai land does not lack water sources, and there is no shortage of good pastures. The Huns will definitely camp here."
When marching and camping, you must have a source of water, so there is no need to say this.
The Huns grew up on horseback and could live their lives on horseback. They came and went like the wind and were extremely fast. Therefore, our ancestors concluded that the Huns had no logistics supplies.
This statement may be reasonable, but it is not complete, because people have to eat and drink, and they need food and water, and the Huns are no exception. So, what is the logistics supply of the Huns?
The logistics supply of the Huns is the pasture!
Every large-scale military operation of the Huns was actually a major migration. The string-controlling men attacked in front, while the herdsmen rode horses and drove cattle and sheep to follow behind. Therefore, the Huns did not lack food.
However, there is a restriction on scribing, that is, there must be grassland.
If there is no pasture during the march, it will be disastrous for the Huns.
Li Muxuan set up an ambush in Daihai, which hit the key point of the Huns. It can be imagined that if 300,000 Qin troops set up an ambush here, the Huns would not be able to observe and fall into the Qin army's ambush circle, the consequence would be a huge disaster, and the Huns would suffer heavy casualties.
"General Li has a good vision!" Qin Yi highly praised.
"General Li's thoughts... the method is very good, but here is open... the vast land is not suitable for setting up... the burial." Han Fei stuttered for a long time before he expressed his concerns.
Although the Daihai Land is a good geographical location, it is an open land that is difficult to set up and is easy to detect by the Huns.
"Don't worry about this." Li Mu said with confidence: "Although Daihai is an open land, it can still be set up. You forgot that the young master ambushed Xinling Jun, isn't it just setting up an ambush in an open land? The land of Daihai is very large, enough to hide 300,000 soldiers!"
Setting up an ambush in an open area was Li Mu's ingenuity, and it was created when the Huns were ambushed in the Daihai. After this battle, people suddenly realized that it was possible to set up an ambush like this. Now, it is because Qin Yiren ambushed Xinlingjun, which advanced this battle method by more than ten or twenty years.
"General Li is so confident, it seems that this matter can be accomplished." Li Si was infected by Li Mu's confidence and was greatly excited.
"Young Master, what do you think?" Li Mu asked as he looked at Qin Yiren.
Everyone's eyes were focused on Qin Yiren. Li Mu proposed a very good idea. According to everyone's opinion, the wise Qin Yiren would definitely agree.
However, to everyone's surprise, Qin Yiren shook his head and said, "Although General Li's idea is good, it is unavailable."
"Hmm?" Li Mu was surprised and looked in disbelief.
Li Mu is very familiar with the land of Daihai. He has 100% confidence. If the Qin army set up an ambush here, he would definitely defeat the Huns. Qin Yiren actually rejected it, and he really couldn't have imagined it.
"Young Master..." Li Mu was anxious and was about to argue.
However, Qin Yiren waved his right hand and stopped him from speaking, saying, "General Li has a very good idea. However, there is a problem that this can only severely damage the Huns, but not completely destroy the Huns."
"Total annihilation?" Li Mu's eyes almost fell off.
Qin Yiren's words were amazing, and even Sima Shang was surprised.
"That's right. I just want to wipe out the Huns! I want to defeat the Huns without returning!" Qin Yiren's tone was not high, but it was loud and loud, making people dare not have any doubts.
If the ambush is set up in Daihai, it will definitely defeat the Huns, but it will not be completely wiped out. Because the Huns' string control men and herders have no less than one million people, and the 300,000 Qin troops will not be completely wiped out, and they will only cause severe damage, and many Huns will escape.
At least, the Huns can escape half of them.
The Qin State is about to advance eastward. The greater the losses suffered by the Huns in this battle, the less it is easier to recover their vitality. The more time the Qin State will be in the whole world. Therefore, Qin Yiren must wipe out the Huns.
Li Mu and Sima Shang looked at each other and a hint of shock passed by. Of course, they understood why the Qin Yiren wanted to wipe out the Huns completely, and Qin had a very big appetite.
"If you want to be completely wiped out, this battle will be difficult." Li Mu stroked his forehead and thought, "Unless you want to find a good battlefield, it will be difficult to be completely wiped out."
With the powerful combat power of the Qin army, the Huns would definitely not be able to defeat it. However, if the Huns wanted to escape, the Qin army might not be able to catch up, which would leave behind future troubles. The problem is that if the Huns were to wipe out all the Huns, even if Qin dispatched a million troops, it might not be possible.
What a huge number of millions of troops, the Qin State does not have so many troops. If you want to get what you want, you must choose a battlefield with the advantage of your position.
"Yes. I mean, we still have some time to choose a battlefield first. If there is no better way, set up an ambush in Daihai." Qin Yiren emphasized the key point.
"Since that's the case, we will send more people to find a battlefield." Li Mu thought for a while.
"We must not only send people to find them, but we must also check them out in person." Qin Yiren nodded and said.
The decision was made. Qin Yiren and Li Mu discussed for a long time before returning to Qin Jiuyuan.
