Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    There was chaos in Mobei, and when the news reached Anbei City, the Protectorate was in an uproar.

    Although everyone knows that this boy Ashina Qilifu is not a good person, and he is not a person who has lived under others for a long time, but who gave him the courage to betray the Sui Dynasty now.

    With thousands of men and horses, isn¡¯t he afraid of Sui¡¯s cavalry?

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????OUT did not care to discuss whether Ashina Lifu is crazy or has his brain kicked. The top priority is to rescue Dingbeicheng.

    ¡° Moreover, Zheng Yanqing knew that the relationship between Princess Yicheng, mother and son, and Duke Wei was special, and he must not put mother and son into danger.

    ¡°It¡¯s not an easy task to go north for rescue.

    There are few people in the Anbei Protectorate and the stalls are large.

    Although Zheng Yanqing had 25,000 Han troops under his command, which seemed to be a lot, with ten cities and one battalion stationed in each city, half of the troops were out.  Then Wei Yunqi went to Dingbei City and took away another five thousand. At this time, there were only more than 7,000 Han soldiers and more than 3,000 Hu cavalry in Anbei City.

    Like Dingbeicheng, in order to make up for the lack of troops, Zheng Yanqing recruited a large number of Hu cavalry, which was also allowed by Huang Mingyuan.

    The situation in Mobei is like this. There are few Han people and most of them are Hu people.  The Han army alone would be exhausted and unable to appease various places.

    But the combined strength of the two armies is only 10,000, which is still insufficient.

    Although there are many barbarians on the grassland, the proportion and quantity of the Han army must be ensured to prevent the barbarians from counterattacking.

    This time, Ashinaqi Lifu hijacked the Turkic nobles, big and small, and recruited Princess Yicheng's army. Together with Wei He's tribe, its power was not small.

    But there are so many troops available, and it is unrealistic to expect Youzhou to support them.

    Xingtai had just finished attacking Hebei and could not muster so many troops.  Even because of the Hebei War, even the food supplied to Anbei City was much less.  Fortunately, this year Zheng Yanqing started farming on a large scale on the grasslands, making part of the food supply self-sufficient.

    When I was feeling worried, Ashina Simo took the initiative to ask for help.

    Since the Yanmen Incident, the Sui Dynasty reestablished the grassland order.  Ashina Simo was originally going to be named the Little Khan of the East Turks. As the force that held Princess Yicheng and Ashina Qilifu hostage, he formed a tripartite force within the East Turks.

    It¡¯s just that Ashina Simo is unwilling to return to Mobei. He would rather stay in Monan and become a commoner than go north.

    Ashina Simo¡¯s attitude is very determined, he wants to be a Sui man.

    For this reason, Ashina Simo did not hesitate to lead more than 13,000 elite soldiers under his command, organized households in Monan and integrated the people into the Sui Dynasty.

    Ashina Simo is so sincere, Huang Mingyuan cannot treat him badly.  So Huang Mingyuan presented his petition to Yang Guang and named Ashina Simo the Deputy Protector of the Anbei Protectorate, Doctor Guanglu, General Youwuhou, and Sangqianhou.

    The tribe was divided into five and placed in the Xilin Gol grassland in later generations.

    By this time, most of the more than 10,000 people had put down their swords and guns and became herdsmen for the Sui Dynasty.

    When Ashina Simo heard about the incident in Mobei, he took the initiative to ask Zheng Yanqing to sign these herdsmen as soldiers to fight against the Turks.

    Zheng Yanqing knew that they had spent a lot of effort to get these barbarians to lay down their weapons and stop causing chaos.  Recruiting them into the army will cause a lot of trouble.

    But in the end, there was really no other way. We couldn't just watch chaos in Mobei, so Zheng Yanqing had to agree to this suggestion.

    Zheng Yanqing recruited ten battalions of Hu cavalry in units of battalions, with a total of more than 12,500 people. They were directly under his command and did not give any Hu cavalry, including Ashina Simo, a chance to intervene.

    By the time General Zheng Yanqing recruited all his troops, it was already early October.

    The headquarters of the Sui Army is easy to talk about.  This group of barbarians is equivalent to reorganizing an army, and the troubles can be imagined.

    In addition to the army, food is also a problem.

    From Anbeicheng to Dingbeicheng, it is 1,300 miles. It is a laborious expedition and it is winter. Maybe the three armies will be overwhelmed by logistics.

    Even if the Sui army's food storage was emptied, it might not be enough.

    Zheng Yanqing had no choice but to empty his storage and slaughter the cattle and sheep to barely make up the first batch of military rations.  The rest were transferred from various cities or borrowed from the herdsmen in Monan.

    It¡¯s just borrowing.

    Over the years, there have been nearly 100,000 herdsmen registered in Monan, distributed in the north and south of Yinshan Mountain, and outside the Great Wall.

    In order to better manage this group of people, Huang Mingyuan established nearly twenty military control counties in Monan at one time, distributed in all directions, and then reluctantly laid out the organizational structure.

    This time *z.*com Zhang Si.  Now we can only rely on the new hope of the Sui Dynasty to borrow grain from them.

    October 12th was the day Zheng Yanqing planned to go north.

    But the night before dispatching troops,It snowed heavily, and the entire Anbei City became a sea of ??snow amid the heavy snow.

    No one thought the heavy snow would come so early.

    But a real question is, how can they send troops when there is such heavy snow?

    Fighting a war is never a simple matter, nor can it be summed up by two armies fighting on the battlefield, because this is not playing games on a computer.  Including eating, drinking, sleeping, weather, terrain, food, morale, transportation, sanitation, water sources, pensions, etc., all must be taken into consideration.

    The officers and soldiers of the Sui army were never afraid of sacrifice, but they traveled 1,300 miles in the snow to rescue Dingbeicheng. No matter how I thought about it, I felt it was unreliable.

    Sima Huangfuwei of the Dufufu then suggested to Zheng Yanqing whether he should reconsider his plan to send troops. Even if he gave up Dingbei City, he could not let this main force fall into crisis.

    &#24378 &#29306 &#32 &#121 &#117 &#101 &#101 &#110 &#117 &#110 &#99 &#109 &#32 &#35835 &#29306 &#12290 Army is more important than the city.

    "Fansi, you should understand the importance of Dingbeicheng."

    "Your Majesty, I know the importance of this unit better. Once there is a problem with the Anbei defenders, Xingtai will not be able to send out a second unit to go out. If Dingbei City cannot be defended, there is still Anbei City, but Anbei City  If something goes wrong, the entire Sui frontier will be a problem."

    "Not that serious!"

    Zheng Yanqing waved his hand and said, "It was December when our army returned from Langjuxu Mountain."

    Huangfuwei retorted: "But there was no combat mission at the time, and it was a warm winter that year, but this year is different. The snow came so early and so quickly, it is obvious that this winter will be difficult."

    "Fansi, Anbeicheng cannot be lost, nor can Dingbeicheng be lost."

    Zheng Yanqing said solemnly: "I don't need to explain the importance of Dingbei City. If Dingbei City is lost this time, then our army will return to Mobei. I don't know when it will happen. And there are thousands of my soldiers in Dingbei City."  , are waiting for our army to rescue them, there is no time to delay, our army has no habit of leaving behind its robes."

    Huangfu saw that Zheng Yanqing had made up his mind, so he said nothing in the end.

    Huangfu Wei knew very well that this Protector, like Duke Wei, was sometimes too kind to a woman.

    But it is precisely this kind of woman's kindness that has created the current military spirit of Fengzhou Army.

    Zhida z.com Zhixiao.  "Since the Protector-General is going to lead his army northward, we must protect Anbei City for the Protector-General to ensure sufficient food and continuous food routes."

    Zheng Yanqing only left 500 Han soldiers and 500 Hu cavalry for Huangfu Wei.

    This is obviously not enough.

    Huangfu Wei also ordered two brigades from each of the ten cities in Monan to rush to Anbei City.  There are 260 people in the two brigades, which adds up to 2,600 people.  There are more than 3,000 people in Monan, so Anbei City is considered stable
