There are not many countries in today's world, not to mention those that are too far away, but there are more than a dozen of them who are also on the same chessboard as the Han Department, and there are Shijie Zhao State, Murong Yan State, and the Eastern Jin Dynasty Small Court in the first sequence, and the countries in the second sequence are Zhang's Liang State, Li's Chenghan, and Tuoba Dynasty, and the third sequence of countries are Ran's Qin State, Goguryeo, Baekje, and Xiongnu Tribes, and the fourth sequence is some local separatist forces.
In the eyes of many people, the Han Department can be ranked in the first sequence, but if you really understand the Han Department, you will not only look at the military, but also look at the productivity and economic strength.
If it is an open and fair comment, the Eastern Jin Dynasty and the Han Dynasty on the chessboard, one country and one tribe, either of which can completely defeat the rest of the countries in terms of productivity and economic strength.
Although the Eastern Jin Dynasty was embarrassed, they at least once had the right to rule the Central Plains, and then the heritage of ethnicity and inherent traditional territories, so that the Eastern Jin Dynasty was hit hard in terms of production capacity and economic strength, even if it was hit hard because of the loss of the Central Plains, but the soft power was still not to be underestimated.
The Hanbu side is purely Liu Yan's own reason, non-systematic production is under construction, agricultural planning is also underway, and things like handicrafts are the slowest to form.
Everyone only saw that the Han army was not short of weapons and armor, but what they didn't understand was that the basis of everything was the existence of Liu Yan, and they would only take it for granted that the Han army had masters of internal affairs, or the kind of masters as high as dozens or hundreds of floors.
Of course, Liu Yan's things are also exchanged for resources, and they are made of real materials, the difference is that the production process is carried out by system personnel, not out of thin air.
Yao Yizhong made all the arrangements, and the person came to the arrow tower of the Chinese army alone.
At night, the Yellow River was filled with fire, and it was the arriving Han warships that fired a large number of rockets at the pontoon, which ignited the pontoon, and then spread to the floating objects in the river.
There is no need to guess too much, the Han army's fleet must have thrown ignition materials such as fire oil into the river, and under the physical law that oil is lighter than water, they will float down the current, sticking something that floats on the river, and will burn whenever there is a spark.
When the Han fleet appeared, the four pontoon bridges were destroyed one after another, and at least 6,000 people disappeared along with the pontoon bridges, who either died in the fire or fell into the water and did not know where they were washed.
Yao Yizhong had already reported to the whole battalion, focusing on publicizing the more than 6,000 old and weak women and children killed by the Han army, and wanted to arouse the indignation of the soldiers, which could not be said to be ineffective, but the effect was actually very limited.
The concept of the Hu people is different from that of the Han and Miao people.
The Han and Miao people pay attention to the family, and would rather sacrifice themselves than protect the old and the young.
The Hu people give priority to preserving themselves before they can take care of the old and the young when they can, and even once they encounter someone who must be sacrificed, it is definitely the old and weak who are sacrificed, which can be seen from the fact that the old man has to go out on his own when the grassland encounters a white disaster.
The cut off of the back road of the Yellow River has put great psychological pressure on Yao Yizhong, he is like this, you can imagine what kind of mentality the rest of the people should have.
In the face of the crisis, Yao Yizhong, as the commander-in-chief, showed absolutely excellent qualities, and he calmly pacified the army, so that he would not be so defeated that he could not even resist.
He did not have the luxury of hoping to turn defeat into victory, after all, the soldier's mentality was in a panic, and it was easy to see the collapse of repeated counterattacks, and persistence would become extremely fragile with the continuous attack of the Han army.
There was a sound of wood being trampled by cowhide boots, Yao Yizhong turned his head to look, Yao Xiang first appeared with his head and then slowly climbed up the arrow tower.
"Father."
Yao Xiang has a quality that is rare for teenagers, that is, there is enough persistence and composure in trouble.
He first saluted, and then said, "The war horses in the camp have been collected. ” "Hmm."
Yao Yizhong's eyes looked at the side of the Yellow River again, and said in a low voice: "This time, my father didn't know geography, and he didn't expect that the Han army would be so tenacious and able to hold on to the condition of absolute numerical disadvantage. ” "Father, the troops brought by Liu Yan must be diehard, otherwise how dare they use themselves as bait."
Yao Xiang persuaded him: "My father also has die-hard loyalists under him, even more than Liu Yan. ” Yao Yizhong gathered the war horses with only one goal, to call the die-hard troops to prepare to break through, not to fight like he said before, and it was impossible to play any tricks with himself as bait when the army's heart was shaken to this point.
Low morale, coupled with the confusion of the army, in such a situation, using himself as a bait is disgusting to live long enough Yao Yizhong is to appease and deceive those non-Qiang generals and colonels, and not let those people escape first.
He will be like this is a clear truth, Shijie Zhao Guo can't talk about discipline or morality, if people who are not of their own race really believe it, they are definitely sick in the brain.
"Father" Yao Xiang hesitated for a long time, and finally asked: "There are still tens of thousands of old and weak people of our clan in the camp, do you really want to give up even them?"
Yao Yizhong originally brought more than 300,000 Qiang people over, and some Zahu and Jin people came to defect on their own, bringing the number to nearly 500,000.
After a series of battles, the number of casualties definitely exceeded 150,000, as for the number of people killed in the battle, Yao Yizhong's side was not as accurate as Liu Yan's side, but it is estimated that the number of casualties is close to 100,000.
Three days ago, Yao Yizhong had planned to evacuate the old and weak women and children to the north bank of the Yellow River, and the number of people who successfully reached the north bank of the Yellow River should be about 80,000.
In order to intercept the Han army that came to support Liu Yan, the Qiang army was divided into two troops, 40,000 infantry troops to intercept the Han army, and 50,000 cavalry troops to intercept the Han army.
The number of people who fled back to the camp after the collapse of the two interception forces should be roughly about 30,000 How many people Yao Yizhong currently has in his hands, because there is no precise concept, there is only one guess number, which should be about 240,000 "In just 17 days, the original large team of 550,000 people, less than half of them stayed in the camp," Yao Yizhong said with a wry smile to his fifth son, Yao Xiang: "In this battle, even if my father successfully breaks through with his troops, it is conceivable that he will inevitably be laughed at by the world." ” Laughing or something is secondary, what Yao Yizhong needs to worry about is how Shi Hu will settle after his prestige is gone.
Then there is the Qiang tribe who suffered heavy losses in this battle, and how should they be treated by the rest of the ethnic groups.
The war has been eroded, it is eroded from the hearts of the people, and then hold on when it is surrounded, how easy it is to look at the battlefield if you want to reverse the situation, how much the Qiang troops who counterattacked, except for a very small number of troops who can hold on for a long time, the rest are immediately collapsed by the strong bow and crossbow of the Han army.
Yao Xiang was still young after all, and Chi asked: "Father, can we successfully break through?"
It hasn't happened yet, and who can be 100% sure what the outcome will be.
Yao Yizhong did not blindly make unreliable guarantees, but said: "In the early hours of this morning, 80,000 cavalry broke through in two stages. ” The back road of the Yellow River was cut off, but fortunately, the narrow land of the Yellow River and Jishui still had a west side to break through.
At present, the number of Han troops is still at a disadvantage, but the Han army is surrounded from three lands, although the Han army in the west is the most, but that also makes Yao Yizhong feel at ease.
If the number of Han troops in the west is small, Yao Yizhong should really be worried, after all, anyone can guess that the breakthrough is to choose the west.
There are not many options that can be given to Yao Yizhong, and he knows that it will be very difficult.
He is only a preliminary appeasement of those generals who do not know the truth, the deception will not last long, once the first wave of cavalry begins to break through, those generals will definitely react, it is difficult to say how those who are deceived will react.
"When you break through, you follow your father closely."
Yao Yizhong looked at Yao Xiang very seriously, almost gritted his teeth and asked, "Do you understand?"
There were too many fires burning, and they were caused by fighting within the camp.
In addition to the burning camps, there were unimaginably many torches and bonfires lit on both sides.

The full moon had just passed, and tonight was a moonless night, and the clouds were lit up by a day-like fire, and the light even obscured the stars.
Yao Yizhong took Yao Xiang to inspect the camp, of course, his actions were to let the soldiers see that he was still in the camp, and at the same time to reassure the soldiers, why not see how much the situation had deteriorated.
"War Master, there's really no way."
"Yes, Lord.
It's not that the soldiers don't work hard, the strong bows and crossbows of the Han army are too strong to rush up."
"Even if we rush up, we can't break through the enemy's shield wall" "A thousand people are charging, and three or four hundred people can rush to the enemy's shield wall."
Yao Yizhong walked all the way, and heard pessimistic remarks all the way.
I don't know if it's an illusion, but he saw resentment and a dangerous gaze in the eyes of some non-Qiang generals.
After returning to the core area, Yao Yizhong summoned his henchmen and said, "The situation is far more serious than we imagined, and the breakthrough will be launched in advance. ” No one said a word, and everyone's face was full of seriousness.
Breaking through requires cover, but it does not mean that breaking through is a stuffy rush, then there needs to be troops behind the palace, and the troops behind the palace cannot give up resistance, and should play a role in preventing and delaying.
Someone asked: "Chief, they will surrender" Yao Yizhong decided to break through in advance when he found such signs, and no one was sure whether someone on his side had secretly reached any agreement with the Han army.
And in the case of an extremely unfavorable battle, betrayal is never unusual, especially since he has a multi-ethnic composition under his command, and there are still fifty or sixty thousand Jin people in the camp.
Now that a decision has been made, Yao Yizhong's so-called die-hard troops can only speed up their preparations, resulting in quite a lot of commotion.
Too much movement will attract attention, and the generals who don't know why can either come in person, or they can send people over, and they all ask Yao Yizhong questions, such as whether to break through and retreat.
I don't know when, singing began to appear in the camp with the sound of killing, singing women stranded in the camp, and after taking the lead, it attracted echoes from afar, so that the women's unique crisp singing voices were accompanied by the sounds of fighting, screaming, moaning and so on.
"Hey" Cheng Shuo looked out through the gap in the shield wall and asked his direct boss Dou A: "What is the Hu woman singing?"
Dou Ah held a clay pot and held a spoon, and he didn't know what he was eating, especially since the air was full of stench and blood, and he could eat sweetly.
He listened to it for a while, then pouted, "The love song of the Qiang people." ” "What" Cheng Shuo was stunned for a moment, and said in astonishment: "It's full of dead people's battlefields, singing love songs" "Otherwise" After Dou'a was promoted, after intensive training, he knew a few words, and heard a lot of stories: "Anyway, it's a good thing for us that Hu women start singing, such as what the Hun women sang hundreds of years ago."
"Make me colorless or something."
Cheng Shuo looked at Dou A with a little disgust, and muttered: "I've been boasting that I've learned a lot, but I haven't learned anything." ” Dou Ah didn't hear the ridicule, and it was less than a month since he went to participate in the training camp, if he had excellent grades, he would not be a Sima of another department, but a military marquis.
It was a pain in his heart, and he felt that it was an extremely humiliating thing.
The two chatted, but saw a robe running with an obvious smile on his face.
"That's Wang Biao" Cheng Shuo said strangely: "What beautiful things happened, he smiled so openly." ” "Wait."
Dou Ah stood up as if he thought of something: "Didn't I just say that it is a good thing for us for Hu people to sing?"
Cheng Shuo bowed: "Yes, you said so." ” The next moment, Dou Ah jumped on the spot, said "Let's send it" without a beginning or an end, and then ran wildly.
Cheng Shuo looked at Dou'a in surprise and laughed "haha" and quickly ran away, his face full of astonishment.
One can see that some of the officers who were at the front reacted one after another, and they ran towards the rear almost ecstatically.
It is not common for singing to appear on the battlefield, such as the story of Liu Bang and Xiang Yu "embattled", and then there are former Huns who sang many times and were expelled by the Han army for 3,000 miles.
The more obvious reminder is that the barracks have never been a place where you can make noise at will, and that not shouting is a basic discipline, let alone so many people singing songs that can feel desolation and grief when you listen to them.
Liu Yan, who was in the rear, naturally did not personally meet the officers who noticed the clues and came to make a report, but he saw the superiors of the superiors of those officers.
Well, it is taboo for the army to report beyond the level, no matter how urgent it is, it should be reported up layer by layer, looking at delays, but discipline is discipline, and it is better to be mistaken than to talk about any flexibility.
Once the discipline of the army develops in a flexible direction, it will be said at a small level how officers lead the troops, and at a large level, it will be disorganized and undisciplined.
What can an undisciplined army expect them to do Liu Yan, who received the report, almost didn't think about it, and said firmly: "Yao Yizhong wants to break through" Dividing line Honor to the majority of book friends New Year's greetings, I wish you all a prosperous new year, everything goes well:
