Battles have always required enough space, and the more troops involved in the battle, the wider the space needed, otherwise the troops would not be able to spread out and huddle together, consuming not only time but also materials.
The Han army was constantly mobilizing, effectively covering the arrival of the Tiger Army.
The Tiger Army is a cavalry with armor and cavalry, and they are more particular about what battlefield to join than other troops, such as light cavalry in light clothing can also perform in sloping and hilly areas, and heavy cavalry will not go to sloping and hilly areas at all due to the relationship between weight and column cost.
The terrain on the north bank of the Yellow River in Jianjin has become relatively complicated compared to the south bank, most of Puyang County is flat terrain, and the ancient cavalry charioteers have many large-scale battles in Puyang County, but anyone who has read some history books knows that Puyang County is suitable for cavalry combat.
It was probably because it was suitable for cavalry combat that the Shijie Zhao army would position Puyang County as a decisive battle, but they also seized the opportunity to retreat after they found that they were going to be surrounded.
The north bank of the Yellow River in Jianjin is the jurisdiction of Ji County, which is divided into six counties, except for the largest county in the north, such as Xiuwu County, Huojia County, Gongxian County, Chaoge and Ji County, the capital is located in the south of the Yellow River, which fully shows that China has always built a city according to the water habit.
The terrain in the south of Ji County is flat, and in order to form a military defense purpose, some checkpoints seem to be military towns, such as Tongguan in the southwest of Ji County, Fancheng in the west of Ji County, and Fangtou in the northeast of Ji County.
Their existence is to defend the capital of a county, so that the enemy army will not take advantage of the flat terrain to conquer the capital of a county, resulting in a domino effect after the fall of the capital, that is, the supreme governor is killed or captured after the capital is finished, and each place fights separately after the loss of the supreme governor.
The Han army's conquest of Ji County took several steps, first Huan Wen's troops went north from Xingyang County in the southwest of Ji County, and they conquered Tongguan without much effort.
There is a historical reason why the Huanwen Department was able to easily take the Tongguan.
Tongguan has been valued in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, the Western Jin Dynasty or the Xiongnu pre-Zhao period, after Shijie ruled the Central Plains, it has to be said that the Qianzu people have no achievements in governing the country at all, and the productivity has not recovered at all, and some important passes have not been taken into account at all, resulting in the fact that the Tongguan has not been repaired at all.
In fact, it is not only the Tongguan that seems not to be famous, but also the several passes that must be passed through to enter the Qindi of Guanzhong, whether it is Tongguan or Yaoguan as a gateway, or Lantian Pass, a backup pass, they obviously have extremely important strategic value, but Shijie Zhao Guo really did not think about maintaining and repairing.
The real situation is that in the Central Plains under the rule of Shijie, in addition to a few acropolis around Xiangguo in the early period, several cities were listed as barriers after the large-scale construction of palaces in Yecheng, otherwise the ruling class of Shijie only attached importance to a few important places on the border, and the rest of the places were basically ignored.
After Huan Wen's troops took Tongguan, it can almost be said that they quickly captured the capital of Ji County, and even the surrounding Huojia City and Gongcheng were also captured without much effort.
The reason for this situation is still related to Shijie's ruling thinking, Shijie has full Hu characteristics, not only does not pay attention to the city, but also deliberately causes the city to be deserted, and really wants to turn the Central Plains into a pasture.
Later, Huan Wen's troops marched to Chaoge and were blocked.
Chaoge is located in the north of Jianjin, at that time Shi Hu was personally led the army in Puyang County, Baima, out of the importance of the retreat will choose to garrison in Chaogetun.
This move really played a key role, it was Huan Wen's department that was blocked in Chaoge, so that Shi Hu withdrew his troops to Fangtou first, and finally retreated back to Yecheng safely.
The second group from the southwest to the north was Xie An's department, they were from Hanoi County into Ji County, first conquered Xiuwu, and then recaptured the Houjia, Gongxian and Ji counties that were recovered by the Shijie Zhao army because of the trapped Huan Wen Division, and further took Fan Cheng as well, and completely cleared the Shijie Zhao army in the west of Chaoge, laying the foundation for the rescue of the trapped Huan Wen Division.
Xie An's troops stabilized the rear road, and they pounced a hundred miles northwest of Jianjin, turning it into an attack route from north to south.
There is only one reason for this, the number of Shijie Zhao troops in Jianjin, Fangtou and Chaoge at that time was too large, especially the line of Jianjin and Chaoge was almost crowded with Shijie Zhao army, if they rushed directly from the west to help the besieged Huan Wen Division, it was inevitable that they would also fall into it, so it was better to open up enough space from north to south, and there were more roundabout routes to choose from when it involved Shijie Zhao's army to the north.
The facts also proved that Xie An's choice of the direction of the aid was correct, they attacked from the north to the south to the direction of the Shijie Zhao army posed an extreme threat, Li Kuang's side gained the advantage in Suoyang City, and Xu Zheng led the army into Yangping County, and the Han army in the three directions directly forced Shi Hu to give up staying on the front line and retreat back to Yecheng.
At present, the arrangement of the Han army is divided into several parts, Xie An's department is in the northwest, Li Kuang's department is from Fanyang in Yangping County to attack Wei County Neihuang, and Ran Min is leading the main force in the Jianjin area.
Shi Xuan's Shijie Zhao army, the main force is stationed in Fangtou, and the miscellaneous cards are still surrounding Huan Wen's troops in Chaoge.
Cao Fu also led a part of the Shijie Zhao army as a periphery, and the location of this group of Shijie Zhao troops was a hundred miles north of Chaoge, which can be seen to be aimed at Xie An's department located in the north of the battlefield.
The recent movements of the Han army were divided into three steps, the first was to plan the retreat of the troops of the fugitives in Shijie Zhao State, and then Xie An, who was in the far north, led the army to make a maneuver towards Jianjin.
The first two steps are to pull and lead the Shijie Zhao army to make corresponding changes, and the third step is to stretch the Shijie Zhao army, so that the Shijie Zhao army is forced to make a move, and the various armies become loose, creating a fighting environment for the newly formed Northern Expeditionary Corps.
The Northern Expeditionary Corps dominated by Ran Min will be composed of 50,000 Praetorian Guards and 80,000 field troops, that is, only these troops will attack northward in the future, and the rest of the troops will enter the stage of defending on the spot or retreating to quell the rebellion, regardless of whether the rest of the troops are still on the battlefield or in the periphery.
Shi Jie Zhao Guo made his own judgment on the movements of the Han army, what Shi Hu's considerations were not clear for the time being, and Shi Xuan, as the commander-in-chief of the front line, thought absolutely simply.
"The besieged Han army must be eliminated" Looking at the immature Shi Xuan, his face was full of hideousness: "They have launched fewer and fewer arrows recently, which shows that the military needs are about to run out, so they will send more miscellaneous troops to attack, exchange human lives for arrows, and strive to consume all their arrows as soon as possible, laying the foundation for the general attack." ” The miscellaneous soldiers in Shi Xuan's mouth were Zahu and Jin people, and in fact, most of the Shijie Zhao army located around Chaoge was also composed of Zahu and Jin people.
Shi Hu provoked a racial vendetta, and while the Hu people of all ethnic groups in Shijie Zhao State slaughtered the Jin people, they also received orders to arrest the Jin people to the front line, and what appeared in front of Huan Wen became a ragtag with the Jin people as the main force, and was driven to force an attack.
Shi Xuan's judgment was from Zhang Qun and other high-level officials in Shijie.
It is based on common sense that this group of Shijie officials will make such a judgment, and from the mobilization of the Han army, coupled with the ethnic vendettas in various places, it cannot be said that they are too stupid and stupid, and they have encountered a country that cannot be guessed and judged by common sense at all.
Chaoge's Shijie Zhao Jun wanted to seize the opportunity to eliminate Huan Wen's department, Ran Min cooperated very well and continued to stretch enough space for the upcoming attack, and Huan Wen, who was surrounded, was really anxious.
"How could it be" Huan Wen said about the arrow situation, he had already learned from the deliberate propaganda of Shijie Zhao Jun that the peripheral Han army was retreating, and the supply of arrows in the headquarters was in a situation at the same time, I didn't know that Liu Yan made the adjustment, and he was a little panicked for the first time: "Impossible" The long history of Tiaoyu gives a very definite answer: "The production of arrows in the field has come to a halt."
Judging from the amount of reserves and consumption, it will bottom out in three days. ” "It shouldn't be" Huan Wen really felt incredulous, his face was unusually ugly and he was silent for a long time, and asked, "Grain" "There is plenty of grain."
There are many things in charge of the long history, including army logistics.
He asked in a speculative tone: "The retreat of the peripheral reinforcements should be real, and there is a problem with the supply of arrows, which is a major event that we don't know about."
Because of the current situation of being besieged, Huan Wen and Tiaoyu actually did not know about the outbreak of ethnic vendettas in various places.
The amount of information determines the direction of a person's thinking, and Huan Wen is doubting that he has become an outcast, and Tiao Yu actually has similar worries.
Tiao You's panic is higher than Huan Wen, his thoughts are more direct than Huan Wen, the soldiers on their side are more than seven layers are integrated from the original Ran Qin State, whether it is due to relatives and differences, or out of the influence of weakening the Ran Qin State, under all kinds of realities, it is really not impossible for the Han State Center to give up on them.
The two of them are in the big tent of the Chinese army, and they can still hear the sound of shouting and killing far away, and what is more strange is that the shouting and killing are in Chinese.
"I don't believe that the king will give up on us" Huan Wen put aside his panic and panic, as if to convince himself, and said: "The Han army has never been wiped out by the Cheng system, and we will not be the first" Tiao Yu frowned and was silent, if it was really as he guessed, the possibility of them becoming outcasts was infinite, after all, compared to the stability of the country in the future, a force was nothing to be wiped out by a formation.
Huan Wen was upset and didn't want to talk about it anymore, he was wandering on all fronts to boost morale, and made it clear to the soldiers that the news spread by Shijie Zhao Jun was fake, and all the soldiers should unite as one.
The besieged Han army was forced to attack because of the sudden interruption of the supply of arrows, and it was necessary to control the consumption of arrows.

The new changes in the battle situation greatly stimulated Shi Xuan's enthusiasm, and he ignored the 20,000 casualties generated in just one day, and even more frantically drove his miscellaneous soldiers to attack from all sides.
Huan Wen wants to dispel the rumors spread by Shijie Zhaojun, but things are not so simple, in fact, the rumors have really affected the morale of the soldiers under his command, especially after the first camp has become a battlefield, and the confidence is declining with the passage of time.
On the second day of the new changes in the battle situation, Zhang Qun had a new psychological offensive, spreading to the besieged Huan Wen Division, saying that Ran Min was killed because of the rebellion, and the center of the Han State had given up the rescue because most of them were from the Ran Qin State, and intended to let them be wiped out here.
On the one hand, he spread plausible rumors that were confirmed by difficulties, and on the other hand, Zhang Qun also sent a suggestion to Shi Xuan to persuade him to surrender, according to his original words: "The trapped Han army has really earned it by surrendering, and if it does not surrender, it will further damage their morale." ” Shi Xuan had a high level of trust in Zhang Qun and accepted the suggestion without hesitation.
People who were born in the Qin Kingdom of the Ran clan basically have a certain understanding of Ran Minhui, and as soon as the rumors spread by Shijie Zhao Jun arrived, Tiao You was really frightened.
According to Tiao You's understanding of Ran Min, he deeply knows that Ran Min is really not a person who is willing to be subordinate, and the Ran Min he knows is a heroic man who thinks he is ambitious, and the self-collapse of the Ran Qin State is just a dormant measure under Ran Min's last resort, and this is also a secret that the high-level of the original Ran Qin State does not make public, the difference is that after learning the true strength of the Han State, they will divide themselves internally.
It's not that it's impossible to be extremely anxious, thinking: I don't say it, it doesn't mean that others don't say it, once someone confesses to the king, Yongzeng is really likely to rebel regardless of it, then it is not a logical thing for the king to withdraw reinforcements and use the hand of Shijie to annihilate this large distribution of the troops of the original Ran clan's Qin army People really can't think cranky, especially as a high-level person, they can't easily panic and lose confidence, Huan Wen is trying his best to support it, the problem is that those soldiers who were reorganized by the Ran clan and the Qin State have more natural affinity for Tiaoyou, and what is directly affected by the abnormality of Tiaoyou is the thoughts of the soldiers.
As soon as people's hearts are in turmoil, the hardships that can be overcome by standing up will become unsustainable, which directly leads to the collapse of their first camp in just one day, and the overall situation has taken a sharp turn for the worse.
Huan Wen wanted to break the situation, but after calming down alone, he finally remembered that there were some captives, and he interrogated him personally to learn about the general trend of the world.
"Shi Hu instigated vendettas of all ethnic groups, and Hu people everywhere continued to riot."
Huan Wen knew what was going on, but his mind that had calmed down was messed up again.
He said to Tiao Yu with an almost grim face: "This can be explained."
The reinforcements are really retreating, and they are going to withdraw to the country to quell the rebellion. ” "Ours was really abandoned" Tiao You's face turned pale in an instant, and he said in a trembling voice: "Then the matter of the Yongzeng rebellion" "That's not something we're thinking about."
Huan Wen's face was pale, but his expression was extremely resolute: "No matter what the situation is, even if I fight to the death of a soldier, I will never surrender."
It's not that Tiao Yu hasn't worked hard in Shijie before, in fact, he has been shaken by Shi Xuan's persuasion, and when he saw that Huan Wen showed a firm will to resist to the end despite his despair, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment
