After the end of September, the temperature in the Western Regions dropped sharply, and the highest temperature during the day is only ten degrees.

At night, the temperature may even drop to minus ten degrees Celsius, and it becomes a reality to breathe into ice.

But Li Guangli did not feel the cold.

The cashmere underwear and wool coat he wore from Chang'an made him feel as warm as spring even if he stood in the cold wind.

Most of the officers above the Han army, Sima and above, also issued wool products.

All the lieutenants and above were wearing cashmere underwear.

Even the soldier gave him a pair of wool gloves.

These wool textiles were very popular among the Han army.

So much so that the Han army's baggage officers and military judges have begun to care about the wool materials of seized livestock and weigh them. They even ordered the prisoners to wash, dry, combed the wool materials for processing.

"It would be great if Zhang Zizhong was willing to be my deputy general..." Li Guangli sighed: "If so, if you get the strategy and the help of creation, Hexi can change in three years and become a Guanzhong outside the border!"

"The Western Regions can be pacified in five years!"

When everyone heard this, they were silent, but in their hearts, everyone sighed.

No one would have thought that the rising speed of the upstart I met last year would be so fierce!

Li Duo remembered that after meeting with Zhang Zichong, Li Guangli asked the emperor to transfer him to Hexi, as the chief of the Central Army and even the commander of Juyan Du, the general.

Unfortunately, at that time, I and other generals all opposed it.

I think Li Guangli is too proud of the other party. It is still unknown whether a small upstart can survive in Chang'an for a year!

No matter how capable you are, what can you do if you are favored?

Many people even think that even if you give him a position as a Hexi lieutenant, you will be a champion!

I didn’t think that in just one year, the stars changed, and the times changed.

Now, the latter is already the permanent general of the empire's highest general. He has a merit and a title of Yinghou. His food and salary rank is two thousand stones. He has a mansion and a teeth, a yellow omen on the left, a white omen on the right, and a status is even higher than that of General Ershi, Li Guangli's Haixi Hou!

Now, it is Li Guangli's turn to serve him as a deputy general, which may be a bit ineligible.

The faces of countless people were so hot that they hurt.

Especially when I listen to Li Guangli's sigh, it hurts especially.

"The general can recognize talents with a wise eye, but I am beyond my reach..." Li Duo said with conscience.

"Oh..." Li Guangli shook his head and said, "It's not your fault, I was not firm enough at that time!"

If he had been determined and determined at that time, who could have stopped him?

What a pity...

"The past is over..." Li Guangli turned around and said, "Let's tell me, what are the actions of Li Ling of Wei Li recently?"

"Report to the general, according to the scout investigation, a large army has gathered near Wei Li's capital recently..." Qin Guan, the commander of the scout investigation, stepped forward and reported: "I personally led the scout to investigate and came to the close to the investigation. I have seen the military flags of Kucha, Shache, Weixu and other countries!"

"Oh!" Li Guangli laughed: "Li Shaoqing really plans to fight me to the death?"

"Is this to imitate King Xiang and burn his boats, or do I want to imitate Huaiyin and fight back to the water?"

In Li Guangli's opinion, Li Ling's choice is just right!

What he feared the most was that when Li Ling saw that the situation was not good, the gecko broke his tail and led his army to flee back to the hinterland of the Western Regions, and then confronted him with the danger of the Tianshan Mountains.

In this case, it would be a big bad for the Han army, especially for him!

Because, the war will definitely be dragged to a prolonged period.

However, it was impossible for him and the Han army to confront the Huns for several months and years in this Western Region, more than a thousand miles away from Hexi.

It is economically unaffordable, and the military will find it difficult to accept such an outcome.

Therefore, the final result is likely to be that the Han army will take down Kucha and Weili, destroy the cities, palaces and manors of these kingdoms, and then gradually withdraw to Yumen Pass after rebuilding Luntai Sedge.

At most, Loulan can control the White Dragon Dui, expand the control range of Luntai by one or two times, and connect the connection between the two at the same time.

If you really want to expand your sphere of influence, you may even directly annex the entire northern foothills of the Tianshan Mountains.

With the current national strength, financial strength and manpower of the Han army and the Han family, it is somewhat difficult.

no way!

The Han Dynasty was not even able to develop the territory of Korea, the territory of South Yue, and the counties of Min Yue.

The four counties in Hexi have been operating for 20 or 30 years, and have immigrated to this day, with less than one million land reclaimed, and only about three million mu of acres, and only twenty or thirty channels.

In this way, the overhead has accumulated to a huge amount of millions!

Even immigrants in Hexi are far from saturated.

Where can we get the energy and manpower to expand and manage the Western Regions?

But if it cannot be managed, developed, and occupied, what's the use?

No one farms, operates, and collects taxes, which is equivalent to no one, or even a burden to the Han Dynasty!

For Li Guangli, if this battle cannot annihilate the main force of the Huns, it will be a failure!

And the generals also laughed.

A devastating battle? A battle with your back?

hehe……

Where did the Huns get the capital to go all out and fight back?

Their army gathered in the narrow Yuli at the foot of the northern foot of the Tianshan Mountains, the dangerous soil.

They lack clothing and food, and their army is not strong in combat.

The Han army did not even need to attack, they just needed to hold them back and prevent them from running away.

When heavy snow comes, the hungry and cold army will collapse under pressure.

Then the Han army could chase them all over the world like ducks.

Therefore, the Huns gathered a large army, and only one choice would take the initiative to attack!

But the problem is...

Can the Hun army, which took the initiative to attack, be the opponent of the Han army in field battles?

They can stop it, have already shown confidence and have completed the new cavalry?

"Is Li Shaoqing crazy?" Only Li Duo calmly raised his own question: "He is not like an ignorant!"

"I suspect there is fraud!"

"Of course there is a fraud!" Li Guangli said: "When the decisive battle in Mobei, did you still have an impression of the strategy of the Huns?"

"I am familiar with it!" Everyone said one after another: "It can be called a collection of all strategies and strategies from ancient times to the present!"

The blessing of the sand table made by Zhang Yingyang was brought to the public. After the sand table became popular, many of the battle situations he had reviewed at Shangguan Jie's dinner also began to flow into Hexi.

The classic battle at the end of the Hai, the siege of Pingcheng, and the review of the decisive battle in Mobei are even recorded by handwritten records.

So, now all the generals and lieutenants of Hexi know the tricks of the Huns before the decisive battle in Mobei.

In order to mobilize the Han army and to create fighter opportunities.

The Huns' monarchs and ministers at that time were really exhausted and worked hard.

We have adopted countless methods including making a name for the east and attacking the west, avoiding the real and taking advantage of the virtual, adding troops to reduce the stove, using the room and counter-split to achieve our strategic deployment.

In fact, they succeeded too.

The Han army, the most powerful, powerful and elite army of Huo Qubing, was successfully led away by them and went to the south of the desert.

The lack of cavalry and a group of infantry and only serve as auxiliary forces, Wei Qing's army was successfully induced to the battlefield they preset.

As a result, the Huns were full of confidence, prepared their troops and horses, and came with all the troops from all over the country.

In the plot between Yin Zhixie and Zhao Xin at that time, that battle was a perfect battle to replicate Tian Ji's horse racing.

Use your own low-class horse to replace the Han Dynasty’s top horse, and then use your own high-class horse to beat the Han Dynasty’s bottom horse.

They can win whatever they want, right?

result……

Both ways were broken through!

Especially on the right wing, Wei Qing's army completed a big comeback in an unfavorable situation.

The main force of the Shanyu was completely destroyed, and he fled into Yanran Mountain with his tail between his legs.

Li Guangli thought about this and laughed: "I once heard that Zhang Zizhong once told others: In the face of absolute strength, all conspiracies and tricks are nothing!"

"Now, our army is strong, with excellent armor and equipment, high morale, and far superior to the Huns!"

"The main force of our army is more than 100,000, and the elite cavalry who can fight is more than 40,000!"

"And the Huns, excluding servants from the Western Regions, their headquarters were only 30,000 to 40,000, and other departments were 20,000!"
