Is it difficult to fight one hundred people against six thousand people, or two thousand people against six thousand people?
Strength and weakness on the battlefield are not defined by numbers, but also by terrain, morale, equipment, command, logistics, etc.
The 20,000 Jin army was able to defeat the 700,000 Liao army. This was not a miracle, but the 20,000 people were already stronger than the 700,000 people. At this time, the number of people was the most meaningless value.
It is extremely lazy to only use the number of people as a measurement criterion.
Being lazy can lead to failure or even death.
And not everyone has the ability to command five thousand or six thousand people.
If you can control the eating, drinking, drinking, and sleeping of a hundred people, your ability is far greater than that of ordinary people.
Without sufficient command ability, the more people there are, the more chaotic it will be, and it will collapse at the first touch, even before the enemy comes to attack.
Lu Xiaoyou can only command two thousand people.
His energy can take care of 2,000 people on the front and two wings, so that there will be no flaws in the rear army, and he can ensure that if he encounters an ambush, he can deal with it.
If there were more troops, he wouldn't be able to take care of them.
It will be messy.
He felt that the Mongols were really powerful and could maintain command even with such an extremely chaotic formation as the Crow Soldiers and Star Formation.
However, he could not even command two thousand cavalry to charge, so he could only approach the Yuan army camp.
It's an approach, not a charge.
The Hexi army formed an array and advanced slowly. The cavalry in the front row raised their shields, long spears, crossbows and thunder cannons.
Every fifty steps, he stopped to adjust his formation.
The cavalry defeated the clumsiness of the infantry.
But there is no flaw. Two thousand people look like one person and twenty thousand people at the same time.
In this vast Gobi desert, battles usually involve cavalry running rampant. Very few people have seen this kind of stupid battle.
The generals of the Yuan army on the opposite side were probably a little confused and thought, "Why are you coming so slowly? Aren't you afraid that we will run away?"
Thinking about it again, I felt something was wrong, so I thought to myself, "You have few troops, so you should be the one running away."
But I still feel like something is wrong...
As the Hexi Army got closer and closer, the oppressive feeling caused by the military appearance and morale was pushed in front of them. They finally found the answer to the question of who should run.
Another blast of horns sounded.
To the south, nearly a hundred more cavalry began to charge this way.
It's a charge, not an approach.
The momentum was more ferocious than those two thousand people.
When the generals of the Yuan army saw this, they couldn't help but think to themselves, "If you didn't rush over so quickly to die, were you afraid that we would run away?"
A head was lifted up, and shouts in Mongolian and Uighur languages were heard respectively.
"King Huo Chihaer of Gaochang is dead! Why don't you just wait for the rebels to capture him?!"
"Huo Chihaer is dead!"
...
The sense of oppression is still mounting.
The Yuan army gradually began to fall into chaos. The generals were not sure of the opponent's strength and could not make decisions immediately. The soldiers did not know what to do and became more and more panicked.
"咴咴咴."
There was an unruly Uighur warrior who got on his horse and ran away. He was a guide and he could find his way back to Gaochang City.
He came to fight for the spoils of war. Even if he won this battle, would there be spoils of war? Can he win the battle? The King of Gaochang is dead.
How about running away?
He has no household registration or military registration.
As soon as the guide fled, there was another puff of dust and smoke.
The golden sound also sounded immediately.
"The Song army is too strong! Go back to Gaochang City!"
Advancing and retreating on the battlefield is the most normal thing.
The scary thing is not to retreat, but when an order to retreat is given, at the same time an order to attack comes.
"Kill him! Revenge for Protector Yi!"
"Kill..."
There are two parts of the Yuan army. One is the Qie Xue army of King Gaochang, including a thousand men who went east to pursue the baggage; the other is the ordinary Uighur warriors, who were originally responsible for blocking Ali Buge, but were temporarily transferred by Huo Chihaer. come over.
After Huo Chihaer's death, these armies were temporarily commanded by his younger brother "A'er'er Dejin".
However, that's how it is in name.
For a time, Al'er, who needed to avenge his brother and take his brother's head to fight for the throne, was afraid.

Just withdraw your troops.
He wasn't too incompetent, at least he paid his dues and gave orders instead of running away on his own.
However, the timid general Xue of Huo Chihaer gave the order to greet him.
Brothers may not be loyal, but close generals are loyal.
As a result, there was a conflict of orders and chaos.
"Bang!"
...
In the chaos, the cavalrymen of the Selected Front Battalion rushed in front of them and fired a thunder cannon with their hands, making the scene even more chaotic.
Lu Xiaoyou, who was heading toward the camp, was a little confused. He thought to himself, how could the general on the opposite side have the courage to command 6,000 people with his command level?
~~
In the Wind-eroded Valley, Li Xia, who was standing on the mound watching the battle, had already moved his mind away from the battlefield.
There is no suspense anymore.
This time I went to the Western Region and met some ordinary people.
Attacking has this advantage. Whether the enemy is stupid or mediocre, they are all in the hinterland, and you can only encounter them if you attack.
Unlike when defending, all we encountered were generals sent by Kublai Khan.
So you must come.
From a distance, Kublai Khan was extremely powerful, as if he was about to control Eurasia.
Don't be afraid when you encounter this kind of opponent, you must get close and understand it.
As you get closer, you will see that this behemoth of Great Mongolia has cracks. Its foundation has begun to decay in the nearly sixty years since Genghis Khan founded the country.
Once you understand it, you will know how to take advantage of these gaps...
Today's battle was his first move after arriving in the Western Region, a small battle outside the Wind Erosion Valley.
Next, it depends on the reaction of all the forces to this battle.
Li Xia looked at the desert, as if he saw the situation of the entire Western Region in his eyes.
Brother Ali, in Lop Nur to the west, the relationship between the enemy and ourselves is not yet clear.
Uluru Hunai was stationed in the southwest of Yangguan and wanted to form an alliance, but his situation was probably not very good.
Aruhu, in Khotan further to the southwest, may not be a die-hard loyalist of Kublai Khan, so he may not be an enemy of Li Xia.
Hedan should still be in the northwest, between Beishali and Lop Nur. This is the force directly under Kublai Khan and must be eliminated.
In addition, there are the Mongol kings and tribal leaders scattered in Alimari, Gaochang City, and other places...
When everyone knows that Li Xia is here and has killed King Gaochang, some people will be angry, some will be afraid, some will be surprised, and some will be afraid.
No matter what, there must be a reaction.
If there is a reaction, there will be conflict, just like a piece of ceramic that is about to crack but is not cracked. Every piece of porcelain wants to move, and the gaps between them will become bigger and bigger...
Considering these things, Li Xia had a clearer grasp of the overall situation.
No matter how likely the success is, he always knows what he wants to do and how to do it...
"show you."
Li Xia handed the telescope to Desuamu beside him and walked down the mound, preparing to receive more prisoners.
He was already planning things for a month or even a year in his mind, so he was very determined.
Desuamu, however, was still indulging in today's danger. He was astonished by Li Xia's calmness when he was trapped in a tight siege and his calmness in mobilizing troops to destroy the enemy.
He raised the telescope and looked north in the same manner. He was startled. He quickly took off the telescope and took another look before re-aiming.
In sight, the soldiers of the Selected Front Battalion ran around the enemy twice. They waited until the Hexi Army attacked and the enemy was outnumbered on the left and right, and then they charged diagonally into the enemy's formation.
A big flag fell down.
The lookout tube was raised a little higher, and at the junction of the sky and the desert, Al'er's defeated army disappeared little by little into the wind and sand...
Desuamu felt that the telescope in his hand was really a magical object, and that the soldiers under the command of King Qin were really heavenly soldiers and generals.
He was extremely grateful for the choice he made.
~~
The killing cry gradually faded away behind him.
Al'er looked back and saw only the wind and sand filling the sky. The Han troops had not yet caught up.
After taking a few breaths in shock, he began to gather the remaining troops.
What to do next?

Baohe Dan, he was defeated by Li Xia and Ali Bu Ge... No, it should be said that Huo Chihaer was defeated. He gathered the defeated troops in the chaos and stabilized the situation.
He must win the trust of He Dan so that he can continue to command the troops of Gaochang and win the position of King of Gaochang instead of rushing back to Gaochang City.
Li Xia joined forces with Ali Buge, and the defense line in the west was defeated, all because of the incompetence of Huo Chihaer, the previous king of Gaochang.
Hedan must temporarily appoint a new powerful King of Gaochang...
Thinking of this, Al'er waved to a confidant.
"I'm going to see King Hedan. You take three hundred warriors to escort my brother's body back to Gaochang City and let Newlin die of illness. Do you understand?"
"clear."
It's that direct.
First of all, we must understand that King Gaochang was canonized by the Great Khan of Mongolia.
During the more than 50 years since the surrender to Mongolia, the kings of Gaochang have changed several times. The Mongolian Great Khan will not check these things. As long as he is loyal, the Great Khan will canonize whoever he can.
Al'er thought about it again and didn't know what he thought of, but suddenly swallowed his saliva.
Although he had just escaped from the battlefield, there was a glint in his eyes.
"Tell me a few more words." Al'er said: "I need to take in my poor sister-in-law, and I can't leave her helpless."
Soon, three hundred riders took Huo Chihaer's headless body and headed towards Gaochang City...
