Chapter 510 Umer's Strategies
There are proverbs among the people.
Auspicious snow indicates a good harvest.
But outside the Northwest Pass, I was afraid of heavy snow when I was fighting.
The war horses couldn't stand it, and all the officers present were worried.
Chen Lin heard everyone's discussion for a while before shook his head and said with a smile.
"It's going to snow, my mother wants to remarry, let her go!"
"Our logistical pressure is great, even if the people in the Western Regions need less food and grass."
"I can't stand it even if I eat beef and mutton every day."
"There's nothing, just one word."
"Sweep!"
Yang Wenhan sighed.
"Governor Shen, if the snow is covered with a piece of rice, it will have a greater impact on us!"
"I don't care how the people in the Western Regions solve the problem of eating horses and chewing them."
"Our logistics transportation alone is a headache!"
Chen Lin laughed and said without caring about it.
"Simple!"
"All leather-armored light cavalry and recruits, including their war horses."
"Retreat all to the rear."
"One-third is used to strengthen the defenses of Huizhou, Lanzhou and Xi'an Prefectures and serve as mobile cavalry."
"The rest of the people retreated to Chang'an Ba Bridge. There was no heavy snow there, right?"
Everyone was shocked when they heard this.
Leave the iron armored cavalry and armored cavalry?
Lu Dachang hesitated for a moment.
He sent away 130,000 to 40,000 people and more than 200,000 war horses in one go.
It has indeed greatly reduced the consumption in the camp.
"However, boy, only 200,000 people are left, and he still has to face exponential enemies."
"Are you... too big?"
Chen Feng even said.
"Governor, why not."
"We shorten the running-in time and strive to launch a general attack before heavy snow."
"The war is over, no matter how heavy the snow falls, it doesn't matter."
"Big, just take it off slowly!"
Of course not.
Whether it is a war horse or a cavalry wearing armor.
Suddenly, the weight of the load increased by dozens of kilograms, and it was very uncomfortable to run and fight.
The five-day running-in period that Chen Lin originally planned was too short.
It is best to go after ten days and half a month.
Only armored cavalry can exert their strongest combat power.
Such things cannot be rushed.
Chen Yun advised.
"Everyone, if we withdraw the Lingboshan Camp."
"All the baggage is concentrated in Hedong camp."
"The number of personnel and war horses has also been reduced."
"Actually, the overall combat power is stronger than the previous ones, isn't it?"
"The Uighurs' whistle harps are not stopped day and night, and we can't destroy them with all our strength."
"It's nothing wrong to show the enemy as weak!"
weak?
It's really not!
The trouble now is.
Karakhan is like waiting.
Wait for all his wounded soldiers to recover?
Maybe you are waiting for the right fighter?
Maybe, just waiting for this heavy snow?
They are certainly better at fighting in bad weather than the Zhou cavalry.
After all, the Uighurs grew up on horseback since childhood.
I haven't seen any heavy snow days.
Could it be that if it snows, it won’t go out and fight?
Chen Lin said straightforwardly.
"It's settled!"
"Chen Liang, your troops should not participate in the war."
"If you don't leave, the Wei River will freeze and you can't even leave."
"This time, you will take away all the stagnant military families and transport another 40,000 war horses back."
Chen Liang nodded and expressed no objection.
If the 200 small ships were frozen in the waters of Qinzhou, it would be a big joke.
"Governor, next time I come, I may have to send my armored supplies to Chang'an."
"Where are more than 20,000 Boy Scouts?"
Chen Lin smiled.
"They have also seen the scenery outside the border."
"There is no need to accompany us to get frozen and train, and the same goes for the Baqiao military camp."
"Just give them ten thousand war horses."
Everyone had no objection to the 50,000 war horses being drawn away again.
Anyway, it will reduce the consumption in the camp.
Even if the remaining war motors are less than one man or two horses.
It's just temporary.
Chen Lin means that there are whistle drivers recently.
He didn't plan to lead his troops to Xiazhou again.
Zhe Kelie, Yang Wenhan left the armored cavalry.
The rest can also be taken back to their hometown.
There is no need for them to stay here, either.
If you really win a battle, they will definitely get a share of the spoils.
The two old men blushed a little.
Their family has only a armored cavalry of just over 20,000.
How many people are there in total when I get together with the armored soldiers?
Compared with Chen Lin, Murong Dongsheng and Lu Zhichang's troops.
They are a little bit less.
Lu Dachang comforted him.
"In the past, no one family lacked war horses."
"From now, I'll only worry about the problem of not being able to support it."
"Don't be embarrassed."
"The only valuable Uighurs are war horses except cattle and sheep."
"Their weapons and armor are almost becoming junk for us."
The next morning.
The Zhou army camp began to evacuate one after another, and the movement was quite serious.
In Xiazhou City, Karakhan and several confidant generals sat around the fire.
A fat sheep roasted golden and crispy were placed in front of her, and several people were drinking the wine.
But there is no appetite.
"Tell me!"
"How to fight?"
"The Zhou army has more and more iron armored soldiers."
"The range of powerful crossbows is long, and our army is very passive in their fighting style."
Karakhan said with a squinted look on his eyes.
"If we keep doing this, the remaining 400,000 troops will still be dragged down."
The bearded general in his left hand waved his knife in a muffled voice.
"Sweat, one is a blunt knife cutting flesh."
"One is to stab to death with a knife."
"Actually, we should choose the latter from the beginning."
"With our more military advantage, even if the damage is severe, it will flood the Southern Barbarians."
Another blue-eyed general shook his head and said.
"Urhada, our losses are already heavy enough, nearly 300,000 people were killed!"
"You still want to fight?"
"Even if we win miserably in the end, our Great Uighur Kingdom will be hurt."
Urhada glared.
"What do you think?"
"You can't sit in the city of sleepy sorrow like this, right?"
"It's going to snow heavily."
"It's cold and cold. From now on, we will be exhausted just by slashing grass."
"Umel, you're a little bit too much. If you have a good idea, just tell me!"
Blue-eyed general Ummer pondered.
"Khan, we shouldn't be staying in Xiazhou."
"Xiazhou city defense is dilapidated. The Southern Barbarians are also good at siegeing the city."
"Once they are ready, the assembly is complete."
"We will be in a dilemma when the ice and snow are sealed."
Karakhan's hawk's eyes flashed coldly, and he took a sip of wine and said.
"Then, where do you want to retreat to camp?"
Ummerdaw.
"Go to the eastern foot of Helan Mountain and find a place suitable for wintering."
"At first, many of our Uighur tribes gathered in the Helan Mountain area for winter."
"The army no longer worry about supplements and forage."
"Secondly, shelter is better than the bare Xiazhou City, and it is also conducive to our rest and recuperation."
"The most important thing is the third one."
"Before leaving, we can bypass the Yellow River and launch a fatal blow to Lingbo Mountain and the Ferry."
"They burned their pontoon bridge and the logistics were interrupted."
"Look at how those Nan barbarians survive?"
Everyone else in the lobby was quite shocked.
A large withdrawal?
By the way, look back?
like?
Good plan?
