The White Tiger Army, the Qinglong Army, the Tiger Army led by Zhang Han, and the two armies of Feng Jie and Han Xin were mostly left in Chu when they headed south, except for the necessary scout cavalry and horses that pulled the baggage.
In addition, they are basically infantrymen.
There was no cavalry configuration in the South China Navy. The boatman was the main force of the South China Navy. This is determined by the geographical conditions and climate within the South Vietnam.
Hu Hai was also among the 30,000 troops. Du Teng, Xu Chuang, Meng Yun, Long Jiaolong Mei and others were all among the 30,000 troops escorting Wei Liao to the army in Ba County.
Among the generals who commanded the troops, Zhang Han was the only one who walked behind with more than 200,000 troops and baggage under Hu Hai's death order. Only Zhang Han would be the only one who could do such a task.
The sound of rolling water came from afar, and the exhausted Qin soldiers cheered together!
Looking at the Qin soldiers who were lying on the ground, covered in dust and almost without human form, Hu Hai, who was extremely tired, licked his shriveled and cracked lips, felt the slightly salty blood in his mouth and tongue, and his eyes could not help but be wet.
Thirteen days!
The 30,000 relay team composed of elite troops of the three major legions took only thirteen days to complete the nearly 2,000 miles from Lingling County, Changsha County (near Yongzhou, Hunan) to Zhi County (near Fuling District, Chongqing) in Zhi County (near Fuling District, Chongqing) in later years.
.
Except for Hu Hai, a group of generals and Long Jiaolong Mei, who had war horses to transfer, the remaining Qin army all took two feet to walk the ancient road of more than 2,000 miles.
This is a miracle that happened to the Qin army soldiers.
Zhang Han led more than 100,000 Tiger Ben troops south and took nearly forty days to complete this ancient Bashu and Guangdong road.
You should know that although these soldiers removed their armor and weapons, the dry food and other items they carried were at least weighed dozens of kilograms. In addition, they had to worry about Wei Liao.
Wei Liao cannot bump. If you use a horse to pull a cart, it is estimated that Wei Liao will step on the crane in a few days. That's why he removed the carriage and transformed it into a big soft collapse, causing more than ten soldiers to carry it on their way.
,In this way, although it will still be a bit bumpy, it is at least much better than a carriage and Mercedes-Benz.
Even if Hu Hai and others rode on horseback, their bodies had reached their limits, and their legs had completely lost consciousness and would fall off the horse's back at any time. Not to mention these Qin who were riding with their feet, carrying Wei Liao's soft collapse.
Army soldiers.
Many soldiers fainted on the ground when they had just been removed from the soft collapse. These soldiers who died on the ground were left to other Qin soldiers who were also free of strength but could still remain awake, waiting for Zhang Han behind.
After the army arrived, they gathered them.
Therefore, there are less than 10,000 people who have truly followed Hu Hai and others until now.
I don’t know if it was because the climate changed in Bashu, or because Wei Liao, who was unconscious, felt the sadness and persistence in the hearts of countless Qin soldiers, but Wei Liao not only did not die, but also seemed to have signs of improvement.
It seemed that when I heard the cheers, the roar of horse hooves came from the direction of Zhixian, which was where Hu Hai and others were.
On February 12, the second year of the Second Emperor of the Qin Dynasty, Hu Hai, the second emperor of the Qin Dynasty, personally escorted the critically ill Grand Master of the Qin Dynasty, and the State Wei Wei Liao traveled thousands of miles to Zhi County, Bajun.
Nine days later, on February 21, Hu Hai left Zhixian and walked on Bashan Road to return to Xianyang.
After Emperor Shin-Emperor unified the world, he built twelve official roads that connect Guanzhong counties and the world with Xianyang as the center. Seven of these twelve counties were related to Bashu counties.
This shows that the Qin Dynasty attached great importance to the two counties of Bashu.
Bashan Road, Guanzhong enters the mountain road of Bajun. Therefore, the road passes through Dabashan and Micang Mountain in the south, so it is also called Micang Road in later generations. This road was originally trampled into a pedestrian mountain road by the merchants entering Bashu in Guanzhong, and then passed through Zheng State The renovation has become a mountain road that combines the stack and roads.
Originally, Hu Hai should have stayed in Ba County for more than ten days, inspecting Jiangzhou, the capital of Ba County, and then checking when he would return to Xianyang. However, a report from Xianyang forced Hu Hai to change his mind and return to Xianyang in advance.
General Zhuque led the 80,000 Zhuque troops who were expeditioning the Huns, and brought a large number of Hun noble beauties captured from Langjuxu Mountain, the holy land of the Huns. They seized countless gold, jade and gems and rare furs from Jiuyuan City to Xianyang.
If it were just Wang Gan and Zhuque Army who returned to Xianyang, Hu Hai would naturally not have to be so anxious.
What’s important is that Mohuer, the current leader of the Donghu clan, came to Xianyang with Wang Gan.
This time, Mohuer brought official documents to represent hundreds of thousands of tribes in Donghu to swear allegiance to His Majesty the Second Emperor of the Qin Dynasty, and presented the list of the tribes of the Donghu clan to the Second Emperor of the Qin Dynasty, indicating that the Donghu clan was officially incorporated into the Qin Dynasty and became a citizen of the Qin Dynasty.
This is the first time since the Qin Dynasty became a vassal state that it has accepted such a large-scale submission to foreign races. Of course, only Hu Hai himself, as the emperor of the Qin Dynasty, could accept Mohuer's Donghu list, and only Hu Hai is qualified to enjoy such glory.
Wang Gan went deep into the grassland north of Yinshan and rushed straight to the Huns' holy land Langjuxu Mountain to rescue hundreds of thousands of tribes who were forbidden by the Huns. In fact, it was completed two months ago.
It was almost the same as Hu Hai and Wei Liao expected.
Maodun fled back to Langjuxu Mountain, but he did not expect the Qin army to follow so closely or come so quickly. So he basically did not make any preparations. Except for the eight Maodun tribe who guarded the Shanyu tent, he was guarding the Shanyu tent. In addition to the ten thousand elite cavalry, the other elite cavalry of the three major clans, Huyan, Lan and Xubu, are nearly a hundred miles away from Langjuxu Mountain.
When Wang Gan suddenly appeared near Langjuxu Mountain under the guidance of Donghu, Maodun, who received the news, just sent 40,000 Xiongnu cavalry to stop them. The elite cavalry of the 40,000 Morton clan was touched. The result of the Suzaku Army, which was equipped with three cavalry artifacts, naturally needs no need to say much.
Taking advantage of the 40,000 Hun cavalry to stop the Suzaku Army, Maodun led dozens of important Hun princes and nobles to escape from Langjuxu Mountain under the protection of the remaining 40,000 Hun cavalry and retreated deeper to the north of the grassland. , Maodun basically abandoned everything.
Including Maodun's Shanyu's golden tent, golden carriage and throne, all the concubines were captured by Wang Gan. Of course, Wang Gan's biggest gain was the captive of thousands of Xiongnu nobles and Maodun was not in a hurry to take them away. The treasure houses of the Xiongnu Shanyu in all dynasties also include the wealth of the Xiongnu tribes that Maodun himself plundered when he ascended the throne of the Shanyu and killed them all.
The harvest cannot be described as abundant.
Hundreds of thousands of Donghu people were basically not hurt. But all relatives of Mohu clan, regardless of gender, age, were chopped and fed to the wolf the day after Maodun returned to Langjuxu Mountain. It is said that women are especially The death of several concubines Mohul favored by the beauties was even more miserable.
With the drag of hundreds of thousands of Donghu people, Wang Gan's 80,000 Suzaku Army naturally could not be able to run freely as before without worrying about being pursued and encircled by the Hun cavalry. Therefore, Wang Gan's troops were divided into two groups, and Zeng Lan, the deputy general of the Suzaku Army, stayed to lead the army. The 30,000 Suzaku Army cavalry protected the Donghu clan and rushed to retreat to Jiuyuan, while Wang Gan himself personally led the 50,000 Suzaku Army to bite Maodun, attracting the attention of the Hun cavalry to the greatest extent.
As Maodun's Shanyu golden arrows arrived at the hands of various Xiongnu tribes living around Langjuxu Mountain, a wave of Xiongnu barbarians rushed from all directions to help Maodun.
If there were no saddle, stirrup, and horseshoe, Wang Gan and the 50,000 Suzaku cavalry would have to drink hatred deep in the grassland. But with these three magical artifacts, there was no organization in that rush. The cavalry of various tribes of the Huns who came were just giving the cavalry of the Suzaku Army.
When Maodun thought of concentrating various tribes on his cavalry and turning back to surround Wang Gan, the 50,000 Suzaku Army, which was alone, the first snow in the first year of the Second Emperor of the Qin Dynasty came.
Wang Gan led the remaining 40,000 Suzaku Army to run more than a hundred miles overnight. Although the heavy snow from the sky caused a great obstacle to the march, he successfully completely hid the traces left by the Suzaku Army.
Without the countless supplies seized from Langjuxu Mountain that belonged to the barbarians of the Xiongnu, Wang Gan and hundreds of thousands of Donghu people could not get out of the vast grassland in this heavy snow.
In this heavy snow, whether Maodun can survive is not a question that Wang Gan is considering.
After the wind and snow stopped, it took nearly two months to reach the Jiuyuan Fortress.
The Qin army went deep into the Donghu tribesmen of Jiuyuan, Wuju, Xushan, regardless of their own safety. Then the chief general Wang Gan even led a large army to buy time for the Donghu tribesmen to escape. This series of actions were formed with the Xiongnu Maodun, who ignored the life and death of the Donghu tribesmen, and regarded it as a slave. A sharp contrast.
The Zhuque Army's excellent equipment/strong speed and attack power gave Mohuer a final blow, completely losing the desire to go back on his word. courage.
Wang Gan returned to Xianyang from Jiuyuan. Hu Hai knew about this, and he asked Wang Gan to lead the army back to Xianyang. Hu Hai also knew about it from Xianyang, but it seemed that Wang Gan and Mo Hu Er had a faster schedule. Hu Hai forgot, no matter how much The Suzaku Army is still Mohu, they are all riding on horseback.
The war has passed, so it is naturally impossible to report everything to the emperor, so Hu Hai did not receive the news until Wang Gan was about to arrive in Xianyang.
Before Zhang Han and the coalition forces formed by more than 200,000 Tiger Ben, White Tiger and Qinglong arrived, Hu Hai still led the 30,000 troops without any armor to return to Xianyang first.
As for Wei Liao, after arriving in Ba County, he has improved greatly after being treated by Bianyu and others. Although he is still in a drowsy most of the time, he has no worries about his life. After leaving Ba County, Hu Hai accepted Bianyu and others. As people suggested, Wei Liao, Bian Yu and others stayed in Ba County. When Zhang Han's army arrived in Ba County, Wei Liao's health improved and then returned to Xianyang.
On April 15, 2018, the second year of the Second Qin Dynasty, he went on a war in late autumn and returned in early spring. Hu Hai returned again after seven months after leaving Xianyang.
As Hu Hai arrived in Xianyang, the process of the second unification of the Qin Dynasty was successfully concluded. The history of the Qin Dynasty began to open a new chapter, which belonged to Hu Hai's chapter. (To be continued. Please search for Piao Tianwen, and the novel is better and more updated. quick!)
