Chapter 1193: Where are the famous generals of the ages now, the bloody battlefield, the decline of mountains and rivers
Chapter 1193: Where are the famous generals of all ages now? Blood woes the battlefield, and the mountains and rivers are declining
The Emperor of Jin immediately removed Duji Sizhong's command and replaced it with another general Wanyan Chengyu to take charge of the military.
However, the Mongolian army advanced extremely rapidly, and at the same time threatened the safety of several important places in the Jin Kingdom. So Wanyan Chengyu had no choice but to give up the solid city walls of Huan, Chang and Fuzhou, and retreated straight to the Yehuling line, intending to use the mountain to block the Mongolian army.
And this Huanzhou is what we said in the above document, with millions of horses in the Jin Dynasty’s foundation!
In the end, in the battle at Yehuling, the Jin Kingdom lost 450,000 veterans who could fight, almost all of them were cavalrymen. There were also most of the war horses in their country.
The great Jin Kingdom was in a slump and could only resist in vain in its weakness and gradually headed towards the day of destruction.
This is the power of the Mongolian multi-point attack tactics!
...
The two points I just mentioned are just the strategic advantages of the Mongolians.
According to the scene Shen Mo saw this time, the advantages they have in both tactics and soldiers' combat skills are also terrifying.
First of all, the ordinary Mongolian soldiers, whose tactical standards are extremely high. Whether they advance or retreat, attack or even retreat, they are shooting arrows to kill the enemy anytime and anywhere.
In addition, because the Mongolians have multiple horses and are very good at riding, their level of preserving their strength is also extremely powerful.
Even if they are defeated, as long as the Mongols get on their horses and start running away, their enemies will immediately be helpless.
At the same time, their individual soldiers' level, that is, the riding and shooting skills of every soldier, are also the best in the world!
After Shen Mo combined so many tactical and strategic characteristics of the Mongols, the reason why they were so powerful that they could sweep across the world was obvious.
When he thought of this, Shen Mo couldn't help but remember the embarrassing situation when the Han people dealt with the northern nomadic peoples throughout history.
Whether in the Han Dynasty or the Tang Dynasty, when dealing with the northern Turkic nomadic peoples, they almost faced the same situation.
These foreign tribes can run into the territory of the Han people whenever they want to come, and burn, kill and loot. The most difficult thing for the Han people to beat them is not how to defeat their opponents, but that they cannot find the Turkic royal court!
Not to mention the Turkic royal court, even if it is a large cavalry unit, if they don’t want to fight you head-on, it will be difficult for the people of the Central Plains to find the opponent’s main force.
The entire northwest desert and grassland are like their own homes to others. They run around thousands of miles deep, without any effort.
However, if the Han nationality troops want to send troops deep into the grassland, it will be difficult to solve the problem of military rations, not to mention anything else!
After 100 kilograms of grain were transported from the Han area to the front line, there was no more than seven or eight kilograms left. Because the villagers still had to eat along the way!
What's more, the long transportation line will be cut off by the cavalry who come and go as the wind anytime and anywhere.
So in that era, when the Han people fought against the Turkic invading troops in the northwest, their main themes were almost exactly the same:
First, they can't find an opponent, and then they break into the opponent's heart and go deep into the vast Gobi grassland.
After that, their retreat was cut off and their supply was cut off. So much so that these Han troops often returned without success. On the way back, they were intercepted and killed by the Turks!
As a result, the tragedy of Li Ling being besieged and captured by the Huns has been repeated in history, endlessly and again!
However, the Huns and Turks were much different from the current Mongolian people!
Therefore, the situation Shen Mo is facing now is: When he meets the Mongols, he is likely to be unable to find them, cannot catch up, and cannot fight!
However, all of his weaknesses were completely exposed to the opponent's attack.
The more Shen Mo wanted to make his strength stronger, the greater his territory had to be. At that time, the more flaws he had in the eyes of the Mongols!
At that time, when the Mongolian army approaches, Shen Mo will face a series of dilemmas such as difficulty in defending the important areas, lack of logistics supply, and continuous interception of the rear route!
...
Until their team climbed to the watershed of the Qinling Mountains, Shen Mo suddenly felt the wind around him suddenly become violent.
When Shen Mo suddenly woke up and looked up, he found himself standing above the top of the Qinling Mountains.
Here, the strong north wind in winter in the north was blocked. Lingnan and Lingbei formed two completely different climates. This is the natural dividing line between north and south of China and a natural barrier that protects the Han people in the Song Dynasty in the south.
This naturally formed huge mountain ridge runs across central China, and even the wind is stopped by it, making it difficult for the chaotic clouds in the sky to fly!
At this moment, Shen Mo stood here, behind him was the Jin Kingdom, which had been an enemy of the Song Dynasty for a hundred years. In front of him was his hometown.
This is the Qinling Mountains, who says that mountains and rivers are ruthless?
...
In 819 AD, in the 14th year of Yuanhe in the Tang Dynasty, Emperor Xianzong of Tang held a large-scale Buddhist activity in Chang'an and sent envoys to Fengxiang Famen Temple to welcome the Buddhist bones.
According to records at that time: "The princes and princes and common people run around and give charity, fearing that they will be in the future."
So Han Yu wrote a letter to advise him, which angered Long Yan and was demoted to Chaozhou, a wild land eight thousand miles away, as the governor of Chaozhou, and escorted him out of the capital.
When he walked to Lantian on the northern foot of the Qinling Mountains, his nephew Han Xiang came to see him off. This person was one of the legendary Eight Immortals... Han Xiangzi.
At that time, the ancient road was covered with thin horses in the west wind, and there was no one in a hundred miles. Han Yu, who was over 50 years old, whistled to the sky: "Where is the family in the Qinling Mountains? The snow covered Lan Pass and the horses were not moving forward."
In history, Ban Gu's giant pen also described the Qinling Mountains in this way:
"Heaven and man responded to each other, and found the emperor's cleverness, so he followed the emperor's heart and only built the capital. So he slammed the Qinling Mountains, slammed the north, slapped Feng Ba, and occupied the dragon's head. The emperor's map rose up based on the 100-year history and the rules were greatly improved."
The Qinling Mountains run across the east and west, with a total length of 3,200 miles. They are majestic and majestic, and are the watershed between north and south of China. This is the dragon vein of China's ancestors. Emperor Shi, Wenshang, Confucianism, Buddhism, Taoism, Tianheyu Forest, and Pass Fortress.
It can be said: "One Qinling Mountains, half of the national history."
The poet Wang Yuanliang of the Song Dynasty also wrote a poem about the Qinling Mountains: "The moon is cold in the blue gate, and the apes cry in the woods, and the wind is high in the Qinling Mountains and the geese stick to the sky."
At this moment, Shen Mo was standing on the peak of the Qinling Mountains. To the east of him was the highest peak of the Qinling Mountains - Taibai Mountain.
At this time, Shen Mo suddenly thought of something that seemed like a coincidence!
