"Ha, it's so funny!" Fan Ye couldn't help standing up and sneering, "5000 people want to kill 15 people, even if these rioters are 15 pigs, it's enough for 5000 people to kill them softly!"
Although the war cannot be won or lost based on the number of troops, to a large extent, the absolute superiority in the number of troops cannot be reversed by strategy, weapons and equipment, and combat literacy, unless the commander of the party with the upper hand is an idiot. As long as the opponent's commander has a little ability, it is enough for the elite side with a small force to drink a pot.
Liu Jun couldn't sit still anymore, Dai Lin's momentum was too great, he occupied several counties, a total of 10 elite soldiers, and [-] auxiliary soldiers. Now the entire Southern Dynasty can only mobilize so many troops. It would be troublesome for Dai Lin to occupy a base.
He immediately said, "Five thousand soldiers and horses are too few to suppress the bandits in Dailin. Immediately pass on my order to recruit 1 troops from Yizhou to fight the rebellion in Sichuan, and then transfer 4 troops from Jiankang to attack the bandits westward!" Sihua, I order you to be the commander-in-chief of the West Route Army, and rush to Yizhou to lead the troops out of Sichuan within two days; Liu Jingyuan, I order you to think that the commander-in-chief of the East Route Army will command [-] troops to attack and wipe out the rebels!"
Liu Yuanjing and Xiao Sihua respectively stood up and clasped their fists in agreement, "The minister leads the decree!"
Liu Jun originally wanted to wipe out Dai Lin's rebellion as quickly as possible, and then take advantage of the great victory to send troops to the Northern Expedition, but things often do not depend on people's will, and his plan is doomed to fail.
With the help of the defenders in the southern border of Qian Kingdom, Dai Lin led the refugee army to block the first wave of fierce offensive of the Song army and stabilized his position. They were all undefended cities, and then Dai Lin's refugee army and the Song army fell into a long tug-of-war, which made the Song army no longer have the time and opportunity to attack Qianguo northward.

Monan.
On May [-], Zhao Junsheng's army arrived in Bigan City and completed the last supply here.
The army rested in Bigan City for two days. Zhao Junsheng ordered all the loaded carriages to be left in Bigan City. Arrows and other military supplies are sufficient for the entire army to continue fighting for three months.
On the early morning of May [-]th, under the order of Zhao Junsheng, the army set off from Bigan City and marched northwest along the southern foot of Nanbed Mountain. Yuyi Town and Huaishuo Town set off. The three-way army followed the marching route that had been determined in advance, and used Xinying to communicate every two days along the way to ensure that the three-way army knew each other's location and news. Xinying The search range of is sufficient for such a task.
If you go straight north from Bigan City, you will have to pass through the desert between Mobei and Monan. The terrain and environment are complex, and the test for the army is very great. There are only 2 horses, more than half less than Zhao Junsheng's West Route Army, and the logistical burden is much smaller.
Zhao Junsheng's task for Weijuan and Bai Jinguang is to cross the desert and enter Mobei at the fastest speed, and then make a quick attack to reach the Khan Court at the fastest speed. After all, these two marching routes are much faster than the West Road The army is much farther away.
The route of Zhao Junsheng's West Route Army does not need to pass through the Gobi desert. Marching northwest is always grasslands and mountains, and there are water sources along the way.
After seven days of marching, on May 23, Zhao Junsheng's army on the West Road crossed the border and marched for several days before arriving in front of Junji Mountain.
"Pass down the order, and the army will set up camp on the spot!"
In less than half a day since the beginning of the morning, Zhao Junsheng suddenly ordered to stop the advance, which made many generals and military ministers very puzzled, but an order is an order, and generals and officials can have doubts, but they have to implement it.
The temporary camp was quickly set up, and Zhao Junsheng asked the generals and military ministers to boil batter in the tent, adding dried meat, pickles, and fresh wild vegetables.
Xue Andu is an old man. Although he no longer has military or official positions, no one can underestimate or despise him. He put down his bowl and stood up and asked, "Your Majesty, there is something I don't understand. The army is marching well. Why? Didn’t move on, but stopped here? And the sentry riders in front didn’t find anything unusual, at least there shouldn’t be an ambush within a radius of twenty miles!”

Chapter 878: Confrontation of Strategies
After Xue Andu's voice fell, the other military ministers and generals stopped their chopsticks. Many of them were puzzled, and only a few ministers guessed why Zhao Junsheng did this.
Zhao Junsheng stopped his spoon, looked up at the generals and the ministers accompanying the army, and said: "I don't believe that the Rouran people have not arranged spies in our Dagan territory. It has been nearly two months since the news of my Dagan going north to conquer Rouran Yes, it has been nearly a month since the army started from Chang'an, it is impossible for the people of Rouran not to have received the news, but why has our army sentry cavalry not found the figure of Rouran's army until now? Is this too abnormal?"
The generals and ministers accompanying the army were a little stunned when they heard this, and took out the map to see that the distance from Rouran Khan Court to here was much shorter than the distance from Chang'an to here, even if Rouran Khan Court received a large The news of Gan dispatching troops was a bit slow, and Rouran Khan Tuhezhen had enough time to assemble the army to fight, and their main force should have arrived here long ago.
"Could the main force of the Rouran Army take the route of the Central Army or the Eastern Army?" General Yuan He stood up and asked, clasping his fists.
Zhao Junsheng turned to look at Zhao Ping, who was in charge of intelligence collection: "Is there any unusual news from the East Route Army and the Central Route Army?"
Zhao Ping clasped his fists and bowed and replied: "Father, my son received news from Bai Jinguang, the chief general of the East Route Army, and Wei Juan, the chief general of the Central Route Army, everything is normal!"
Now everyone understands that Zhao Junsheng is worried that the Rouran army may be hiding somewhere in Junji Mountain. This Junji Mountain is located in the middle of the Jinshan Mountains. There are many valleys, canyons and basins, and the terrain is complex. It is spring again, among the mountains and forests The vegetation is lush, and it is easy to hide soldiers and horses. Even sending sentry cavalry to investigate may not be rewarding.
In fact, Zhao Junsheng is not worried that the Rouran army is in ambush in Junji Mountain. If the Rouran army is really hiding in the mountain, as long as the scouts are patient, Rouran will not be able to hide. The Rouran army is all cavalry, and there are large numbers It is impossible for the war horses of China not to leave traces.
What Zhao Junsheng was worried about was that Rouran's army was scattered and hidden around the periphery of Junji Mountain. They only waited for the army to enter the mountain before chasing and intercepting them. In the canyon, it becomes a turtle in an urn, the more people there are, the worse the defeat will be!
Zhao Junsheng pondered for a while, and ordered: "The army will stay here for a few days, and all the scouts and cavalry will be dispatched to carry out a carpet-like reconnaissance search within a radius of more than a hundred miles! Zhao Ping, ordered the black guards to start hiding I want to know the exact information about the Rouran army's internal and hidden contact methods!"
"Observe the order!" Zhao Ping and Nayan, the captain of the scout battalion, stood up and accepted the order with fists in their hands.
There was nothing to say all night, and Zhao Ping came to see Zhao Junsheng early the next morning.
Zhao Junsheng thought that Zhao Ping had brought news from Rouran, "Is there news from insiders so soon?"
"Father, it's not the news from the inside, but the news from the Western Regions. An army of [-] people attacked Tianyun Pass for two months and failed to break through the city wall. General Gao Jinzhi kept sending more reinforcements and transporting defenders. Equipment and food, the Yanda people pretended to retreat, and wanted to kill a carbine suddenly when the Tianyunguan guards were lax, but they were spotted by our army guards. Not only failed to break through the city, but also lost troops! Yunguan is a tough nut to crack, so the army has been withdrawn! However, when the scouts sent out by Tianyunguan were tracking, they suddenly lost the trace of Yanda's army, because there was a heavy rain at that time, and the Yanda army was washed away. The traces left by the army!"
"After Gao Jinzhi received the news from Tianyun Pass, he discussed with his staff and generals. They believed that the Naida army had not really retreated, but was looking for other places where they could cross the defense line of our Western Region defenders! At present General Gao Jinzhi has sent envoys to the Dawan Kingdom to investigate the whereabouts of the Yanda people, but has not received a reply yet. If the Yanda people use the Dawan Kingdom, their targets may be Ubeliburg and Bodaling! "
Zhao Junsheng took a look at the map, and asked, "Why isn't it Yilie Water Canyon or Alishan Fort?"
Zhao Ping looked at Zhao Junsheng, and felt that his father wanted to test him, so he cupped his hands and said, "My minister thinks that Yilie Shui Canyon cannot be walked at this time. It is already the middle of May, and the ice and snow in Tianshan Mountain When it melts, I am afraid that the water level of the river has risen a lot. Walking from the canyon on the river bank is a dead end! And Alishan Fort is too far away. As long as they attack Alishan Fort, our army in the Western Regions will have enough time to send troops to intercept it. The way back for the disgusting people!"
Zhao Junsheng nodded, approving Zhao Ping's analysis.
In the afternoon of that day, Nayan, captain of the scout battalion, finally brought good news.
"Your Majesty, our sentry found a Rouran cavalry 120 miles southwest, with about 1 horses!"
Zhao Junsheng's expression changed, and he immediately walked to the map to check it, measured it with a ruler, and calculated again. The location 120 miles southwest happened to be at the foot of the last mountain of Zhuoxie Mountain.
120 miles, if it is reconnaissance on the way to the march, almost all scouts cannot detect such a long range, because the distance is too far for scouts to get supplies and reinforcements, and once they are discovered, they will be easily overtaken by the enemy Killing, and the military situation will change at any time, the news of the scouts can easily become outdated, and the military situation cannot be effectively transmitted.
Zhao Junsheng touched his chin, turned around and ordered: "Explore again, pay special attention to other directions, and further expand the scope of reconnaissance!"
"promise!"
After Nayan left, Zhao Ping walked in quickly and reported: "Father, just received the news from Chang'an that a refugee rebellion broke out in the Southern Dynasty, and 10,000+ refugees captured several counties. I am afraid that we have no time to take care of our war with Rouran!"
When Zhao Junsheng heard the news, a hanging heart fell back into his stomach. Although he already knew the reality of Nanchao, it was a lie to say that he didn't care about Nanchao and Rouran's two-sided attack. A skinny camel is bigger than a horse, and now it is impossible for the Southern Dynasty to send troops to the north as agreed, so their alliance with Rouran will collapse.
In the next two days, Zhao Junsheng's West Route Army received news from Weijuan and Bai Jinguang respectively. Everything was normal. They had already entered Mobei and were attacking various Rouran tribes. It went smoothly and the progress was fast.
After Zhao Junsheng saw these two news, he was not in a hurry. The one who is worried now should be Rouran Khan Tu Hezhen. If Tu He is really hiding somewhere with Rouran's main force, trying to trap his West Route Died in Junji Mountain, then the East Route Army and the Middle Route Army have already opened up the situation in Mobei, which is extremely unfavorable to Rouran. It's Tu Hezhen.
Sure enough, as Zhao Junsheng expected, the Rouran people couldn't bear it anymore on the third day. The scouts of the Qianjun sentry found two signs of cavalry activity in Junji Mountain, and found another cavalry in Jiluo Mountain in the northeast. According to the traces of a cavalry, the total strength of the Rouran cavalry was found to be about 8.
"It seems that Tu Hezhen originally planned to trap us to death in Junji Mountain, and then concentrate on annihilating them, but the appearance of our East and Central armies in Mobei disrupted his plan, and he couldn't bear to jump out! "
After Zhao Junsheng finished speaking, he looked at the ministers and generals who accompanied the army: "Masters, what should we do now? Fight or not? If we fight, how do we fight? If we don't fight, how do we deal with them?"
Xue An stood up and clasped his fists and said, "Your Majesty, judging from Rouran's movements, Tuhe should really plan to use a pack of wolves to deal with us! They have 8 horses, but they are scattered in all directions, and each direction There are not many troops, only [-] at most, which is more than half of our [-]. Although the number of troops is insufficient, it also has advantages, that is, it is convenient and fast to move. If we use [-] troops to specialize All the way, the Rouran cavalry on this road only need to keep a distance from us, and if they are not caught up by us, we can do nothing about it, while other Rouran troops can rush up from all sides, waiting for our army to enter their preset The battlefield, and then attack it in groups, our army will definitely suffer a big loss!"
Zhao Junsheng nodded: "General Xue's words are all reasonable, do you think we should fight or not?"
"I think our army should stay put for the time being. The ones who are anxious are the Rouran people. It's really impossible for Tuhe to stay here with us all the time. Otherwise, the Rouran tribes in Mobei will be defeated and lost by my other two armies. It's terrible, his old lair is about to be raided, how can he continue to spend with us? They will either retreat to help, or fight us quickly, and then go back to rescue the Khan court after killing us all the way !"
"I thought that he would not choose to retreat and return to help. In this way, what he will face is not our West Route Army, but our Three Route Army entering the palace at the same time. The situation is extremely unfavorable to him! Now He can only defeat our three-way army one by one, so he should be very anxious, and if he is anxious, he will reveal his flaws, and then our chance will come!"
Zhao Junsheng thought about it, and said to the ministers and generals: "Since our side has an advantage in this area, of course we must maximize this advantage and make use of our strengths to avoid our weaknesses! Nayan, your scout battalion must not let up, let me keep an eye on you!" It is best to find out where Tu Hezhen is located! If there is any change in the people of Rouran, report it quickly!"
"promise!"
In the next two days, the people of Rouran couldn't hold their breath anymore. The soldiers and horses from all walks of life kept approaching the Qianjun West Route Army. Reinforcing each other is exactly the same as when wolves hunt.
