Chapter 6665: Its reasonable
Although I had realized before that the Qiang people must have blocked the mountainous areas in northern Tibet, the previously estimated scale and the scale detected are completely different from the ones detected now.
Nonsense, of course, it is two different things. The Qiang people who used to calculate were only blocking the camel cavalry. Now they encountered the Qiang people who recruited young and strong men to expand their troops on the spot. Why is it said that fighting on the enemy's homeland is because if the enemy has a certain will to fight, they can pull out a large-scale main force anytime and anywhere.
As Fu Wowed had previously estimated, even if the Qiang people had set up defenses near the Qiangtang Grassland and the northern Tibetan mountainous areas, considering their location, the Qiang people could not leave too many people in the Qiangtang Grassland and the northern Tibetan mountainous areas. Therefore, when they went north, even if the Qiang people were dispatched at the fastest speed, they could block the Qiang people in the northern Tibetan mountainous areas before they arrived.
In addition, the camel cavalry rushed all the way and forcibly marched to the mountainous areas of northern Tibet, and its strength inevitably declined. Even if it had the ability to suppress the Qiang people in a large scale, facing these fierce Qiang people who were fearless, the camel cavalry would inevitably suffer heavy losses. But at least Fu Ward was sure to break through the Qiang people's defense line and enter the northern Tibet plateau in a very short time, almost in one go, under the blocking of thousands of people.
If it is replaced by a 20,000 Qiang people's young and strong blockade, it will not be a matter of 10,000 plus 10,000. Not to mention anything else, as long as the Qiang people are properly arranged and persistently, if Fu Ward cannot break through it in one go, it will be not far from the entire army.
After all, the Qiang people in the west, the Qiang people in the south, and the Qiang people in the east were all running here, waiting to fight with camels. The time wasted wasting more. More than 100,000 Qiang people came, and Fu Ward did not have Huo Qubing, Dou Xian's ability to fight for 30 or 40, and he could still die.
The piles were all gone. No matter how cheap the Qiang people were, they would be the regular soldiers who dared to fight for their lives, not the ants. Not to mention anything else, just stabbing them with a spear can kill the Kushan elite.
"Twenty thousand people." Fu Ward's face became extremely ugly.
"Yes, conservatively estimated, there must be 20,000 people. If you are not lucky, the number may be more." Sidney replied with a heavy expression.
"We have more than 4,100 people left now." Fu Ward lowered his head and evaluated how likely it was to pass through the other party's blockade, but the more he calculated, the more he felt slim.
"It's very difficult. It's very troublesome for the Qiang people to be brave and fearless." Sidney shook his head. He was at least a backbone general who had participated in the War of the Empire and had his own assessment of the strength of both sides.
"If you don't go to the northern mountainous areas of Tibet..." Fu Ward frowned. If you don't go here, there would be no way out for Fu Ward.
"Try other directions, now they all think we're going to northern Tibet." Sidney suggested.
Sidney's words reminded Fu Ward. Indeed, their intentions are very obvious now. All the Qiang people realized that they were going to the mountainous areas of northern Tibet. In this case, if they could find another way, then the chance of escaping would be very great.
However, the two looked at each other for a while and were a little embarrassed. That's what they said, but the brains of both sides were actually blank in this regard.
From the beginning, their plan was to go north to the mountainous area of northern Tibet, and then take the Karakoram Road from the mountainous area of northern Tibet to Kushan. As for other plans, there was no such thing as any.
Similarly, the previous move to the south were just a show to attract the attention of the Qiang people. In order to serve the northern Tibet mountainous areas, it can be said that Fu Wode and his two plans were entirely focused on how to enter the northern Tibet mountainous areas.
"Can we not enter the northern Tibetan mountainous area first?" Sidney looked at the obviously tired soldiers behind him. If it was the camel rider who was at the peak before, Sidney was still sure to break through the blockade set up by 20,000 Qiang people, or if they still had mounts, Sidney was also sure.
But now, in order to avoid being surrounded and intercepted by the Qiang people, forcing the whole process has consumed a lot of physical strength. It is not in the peak state and has no elite troops in the headquarters. To be honest, it is really difficult to quickly break through 20,000 Qiang people, and it is very likely that the first wave was not over, resulting in the loss of troops and generals.
Given the current situation of Camel Riding, there is only one chance for anything. If you can’t beat it for the first time, there are fewer people behind it, and it is even more impossible to break through it.
"If we don't enter the mountainous area of northern Tibet and circle around here, it can last for a while. However, the Qiang people are more familiar with the terrain than us and drag it for a long time. Maybe we will have a blockade in front and pursuers behind, and then we will be trapped in front and back attacks..." Fu Ward shook his head and refused.
Except for entering the mountainous areas of northern Tibet, other plans have no value at all at present, just the difference between dying early and dying late. Only by entering the mountainous areas of northern Tibet can one truly break out of the blockade and have the power to choose the future, otherwise it can only be considered a stagnation.
When Sidney heard this, he had no choice but to lead the camel rider to follow Fu Ward to continue north, betting whether his family could penetrate the Qiang people and blockade them.
"Let's rest, and then we will force our troops. The number of reconnaissance eagles of the Qiang people is increasing." Fu Ward ordered with a calm expression. He had to rest. Going forward, the probability of encountering the Qiang people is increasing. As for whether resting here will lead to the pursuit of the Qiang people in the rear, to be honest, it doesn't matter at this time, and Fu Ward is not prepared to have a second chance.
"General, let's go northeast and go to the Tibetan area first." Sidney took the soup, looked at the reflection in the soup, and suddenly realized something.
"Under the Tibetan area?" Fu Ward still didn't react.
"Yes, we can not go to the northern Tibetan mountainous area in the northwest, and take advantage of the opportunity of the Qiang people approaching this side to go to the Tibetan area first. At this time, we have a great chance of going to the Tibetan area here." Sidney pointed to the northeast with an excited face and said, "There is no blockade here, or just point out that there is a huge gap here. We only need to block the Qiang people's war eagle's reconnaissance, and we are likely to jump out of the Qiang people's encirclement without any damage."
Fu Ward gradually understood what Sidney meant. Because Fu Ward went north, the Qiang people's encirclement also moved closer to the northwest mountainous area of northern Tibet. In this way, a gap would naturally appear in the northeast direction, because the Qiang tribes that had previously blocked the northeast direction, and followed the direction of the northern Tibet mountainous area to block Fu Ward before.
"After the Qiang people's blockade, go directly to Tibet and enter New South Wales..." Fu Ward's eyes became brighter and brighter. He had already realized that this seemingly unrealistic plan was very likely to be implemented, because the local army in New South Wales was forced to shrink due to the previous assassination.
"This is a time difference. As long as we blocked the Qiang people and war eagles' stalking, they thought we were running towards the northern Tibet mountainous area, but in fact we had already gone down to the Tibetan area." Sidney said with his eyes lit up, "After we went down to the Tibetan area, we turned to the southwest, and entered the mountainous area from the north of the northern Tibet mountainous area, we could still walk through the Karakoram Corridor."
To be honest, entering the mountainous area from the north of the mountainous area in northern Tibet and then following the Karakoram Corridor is the serious ancient Silk Road. Entering the mountainous area from the south of the mountainous area in northern Tibet is actually a route with no choice. The difference between the two is very big. The former means that there are paths left by previous generations. Even if they have been blocked by heavy snow now, they are at least meaningful, while the latter can only be tested by themselves.
"In this way, it's too late for the elite cavalry with one man and three horses in the Qiang people's hands." Fu Ward said with a loud laugh.
For Fu Ward, the legion with the fastest motor power under the Qiang people has a great influence on him. Why do you have to force yourself to march, why do you have to break through the blockade at a high speed, and why there is only one chance to impact? To put it bluntly, isn’t it just that you are afraid of being caught up by the elite Qiang people with one man and three horses?
In fact, just as we are close to the mountainous areas of northern Tibet, Fu Wode estimated that the elite Qiang cavalry would not be too far away from them, but if we headed to the northeast here, we would probably be able to get rid of the elite Qiang soldiers.
After all, Fu Ward's strategic intention has been exposed. No matter how Fu Ward changes, the mountainous areas in northern Tibet will be blocked, so that the other party will not be able to walk through the Karakoram Mountain Road. Sooner or later, the other party will have to jump out to fight the Qiang people in a decisive battle. Therefore, during this period, no matter what Fu Ward does, the main force of the Qiang people will only gather near the mountainous areas in northern Tibet, and this is Fu Ward's opportunity.
"Go, go northeast, go to Tibet first, then go from Xinzhou to the northern foot of the Tibet mountain area, and enter the Karakoram Mountain Road, hahaha, God bless me!" Fu Ward said with a loud laugh.
It was really because of the mountains and rivers that there was no way out. There was another village. Facing the blockade line formed by more than 20,000 Qiang people in front, tens of thousands of chasing corps behind, a large number of encirclement forces in the West, and the Qiang cavalry that were constantly coming, Fu Ward was already somewhat desperate and did not want to leave a way out for himself. Hahaha, life should not be lost, it is true that life should not be lost.
After gaining this understanding, most of the clouds in Fu Ward's heart disappeared, and he decisively used strategic secret techniques to cover his own legion, then marched towards the northeast, and smoothly passed through the Qiang people's blockade.
The Tibetan area is too big after all. Even if the Qiang people sent more than 100,000 people to encircle Fu Ward, they still left many flaws. After all, the encirclement is large, and the gap will naturally be larger.
"What, you haven't encountered Fu Worde?" Yang Pu led the Qiang people's elite cavalry to the front of the mountainous area in northern Tibet. Looking at the Qiang people who gathered more than 25,000 people here, I couldn't help but be shocked. How could I have arrived? How could Fu Worde not have arrived yet?
"A few days ago, we also received news that Fu Ward was resting on the edge of Qiangtang. At that time, we judged that Fu Ward planned to regain his energy and fight to the death with us, and then rushed into the northern Tibet mountain area, so we continued to strengthen our defense. After that, the Warhawk could not detect Fu Ward. We thought that Fu Ward used secret techniques to hide, and should have wanted to catch us off guard." Kewu said bitterly.
There is no problem with this judgment. After all, the Qiang people squatted in front of the mountainous area in northern Tibet. If Fu Ward wanted to enter, he could not avoid it.
Therefore, regardless of whether Fuwad hides or not, what the Qiang people have to do is to continue to strengthen their own strength, build low interception walls, and then strengthen various defense facilities, waiting for Fuwad to rush over.
As for what methods Fu Ward can use at that time, it is actually not very important. All they have to do is to hold Fu Ward back. The more time the other party spends, the more beneficial it is for the Qiang people. Therefore, Kewu and others were not surprised after discovering that Fu Ward suddenly blocked the War Eagle's reconnaissance.
After all, you have entered the decisive battle area. If you don’t take the initiative to block the War Eagle’s reconnaissance, your own every move must not be stared in the eyes of the other party. Using secret techniques at this time is a very reasonable move from a combat perspective.
Considering the gap in their own strength, the Qiang people did not think of taking the initiative. After discovering that Fu Ward's trace was lost, they continued to strengthen defense, increase patrols, secret whistles, etc.
However, Kewu couldn't even think of killing Kewu. Fuwu ran away directly. No, what a fool. At this time, where can Fuwurd run, run south and east? Isn't that dying struggle?
Now that Fuwad's main base has been destroyed by the Qiang people, the elite Kushan soldiers are left with the food and grass they carry. Even if they are captured during this period, it cannot last for too long. Under such circumstances, running south and east is actually a dead end. After the logistics is consumed, the death will only be more miserable than the decisive battle with the Qiang people, and it is even less meaningless.
So when facing the news that Fu Ward disappeared, Yang Pu and Ke Wu were both confused. They could not understand what Fu Ward was like, so why did they suddenly disappear.
"What, Fu Wode disappeared?" Lin Dai received the news that Yang Pu and Ke Wu were sent back by Xinying, and he was also stunned. He had been restless before and had been waiting for the final result of the battle. Whether Fu Wode won, entered the mountainous area of northern Tibet, escaped from birth, or Fu Wode was stopped by Ke Wu and died under Yang Pu's attack, Lin Dai could accept it.
But Fu Ward disappeared, and this neighbor could not accept it at all.
"Send someone to investigate!" Neighbor Dai ordered angrily. Before the military order was passed to the front line, Yang Pu and others had already arrived at the last position before Fu Ward disappeared, and then the professional investigators determined the location where Fu Ward evacuated.
"Going northeast? What's going on?" Yang Pu looked dumb, but this dumb wood lasted for a moment and directly ordered his cavalry to follow him to pursue Fuwad. However, the pursuit lasted for only a hundred miles. Yang Pu stopped because the traces of Fuwad's march had been completely wiped out by the heavy rain.
There is no way, the climate in the plateau area is very strange. Even Yang Pu, who has lived here for several years, still cannot grasp it, but the clues are cut off.
"Hahaha, good luck, really good luck." Fu Ward laughed. He had just passed by the sea, but when he turned around, he found that there were dark clouds there. Then the heavy rain wiped out all the traces. What he had to do next was to go down to the Tibetan area. There was no blockage in front and no pursuit behind. It was impossible for the sudden Qiang people to blockade. Return to Kushan, it was already in front of him.
"Indeed, since we chose to go northeast, go to Tibet first, go to New South Wales, and enter Kushan from the Orthodox Ancient Silk Road, our luck has become very good." Sidney said with a little emotion, even he had to admit his luck during this period.
"Eat a good meal, and then we set out on the road with peace of mind, let the soldiers eat their fill and then march. They were surrounded and blocked by Qiang people along the way, and they didn't even have a hot meal a few times. This time we can eat enough." Fu Ward smiled very happily.
"Eat?" Just as Fu Ward laughed and called on the camel cavalry under his command to unload the dried meat and barley in batches and start burying the pot to make rice, an angry roar appeared on the plateau. The northwestern Qiang people rushed out of the mountain valley, "Fu Ward, I've blocked you!"
At this moment, Fu Ward was confused, and Camel Rider was also confused, because no one thought they would take this path, or even go northeast to Zangzhou to go to New South Wales and return to this plan was a sudden idea, and it was discovered by chance, so in theory it was impossible for someone to ambush here.
However, this impossible happened just like this. Mangzhong led more than 20,000 young Qiang people in the northwest to wait for Fu Ward here, and now he finally waited.
There was nothing extra to say, Mangzhong picked up a spear and led the young Qiang people under his command to attack the camel cavalry who was burying the pot and making rice.
It’s not that the scouts and patrols of the Camel Rider were not good, but that Mangzhong thought that the bitch Fu Ward would definitely leave here in the morning. After all, he was scolded by his neighbor Dai before, because the bitch Fu Ward sent someone to New South Wales to assassinate Dr. Liu.
Although Mangzhong did not understand how much turmoil would be caused by assassination of Doctor Liu, Mangzhong was very hasty and thought that since Fu Ward could send people here, he must have conducted an investigation here. Therefore, when Nei Dai built an encirclement to block Fu Ward, Mangzhong continued to pay attention to Fu Ward's route.
When Fu Ward went south, Mangzhong thought that Fu Ward was setting up a suspicion array. When Fu Ward went north, Mangzhong thought that Fu Ward was going to hide the truth. When Fu Ward disappeared, Mangzhong thought that Fu Ward must have come here.
So Mangzhong dug the tunnel here early, garrisoned, and waited for Fu Ward to arrive.
Even after receiving the news of Fu Ward's disappearance, Mangzhong argued with a very simple mind that Fu Ward was going to pass by himself, and issued emergency information to the leaders of the Qiang people of various departments to let them meet up with him. Although the logic of this judgment is completely wrong, how can I say it, the result is completely correct.
Fu Ward appeared, and led all the main forces to appear. Even Mangzhong clearly saw Fu Ward himself, but the other leaders of the Qiang people had not arrived yet. Some were confused about Mangzhong's judgment, and some thought Mangzhong's judgment was correct, but they could not catch up. In short, the only ones who appeared here now were the main forces of Mangzhong Group of the Qiang people's troops in the northwest.
But the same thing is said. The neighbor Dai thought that Mangzhong could become a big-headed person in the northwest of Tibet. Not to mention anything else, at least among the Qiang people, he was still somewhat powerful. The 20,000 people under his command were not an imaginary number of people who were empty-handed, but a real 20,000 young and strong man.
Rush straight, rush hard, rush hard, fuck hard!
Mangzhong said that you, Fu Ward, humiliated me last time, and passed through my defense zone, causing such a huge loss to the Han Dynasty. So this time, I will beat you back hard and wash away the previous humiliation. The key to washing away the humiliation this time is that you, Fu Ward's head, die!
"Array assault!" Fu Ward ordered loudly.
Array defense is no longer possible. Most of the soldiers of camel cavalry are already burying the pot to make rice, and many people even cook the meat into the pot.
Although the overall situation is still in a group of more than a dozen people, it would be completely nonsense to quickly build a flat front and then fight with the Qiang people formation. Fu Ward does not have this ability. All he can do is to do his best to lead the patrol and waiting soldiers who are brave enough to suppress the Qiang people first.
As for the loss, the loss this time will be very large. Although it will not be completely wiped out, it may be a terrible degree for Fu Ward. After all, the time point chosen by the Mingzhong was too good, so good that Fu Ward was not prepared at all.
"Die, blow Ward!" A dense rain of arrows covered the water, and Mangzhong was not just waiting here!
At this time, Mangzhong was full of anger. Fu Ward was right in front of him. So what else is there to say? Of course, it is useless. With Fu Ward, it will be avenged!
Arrows and javelins smashed towards the direction of camel riding like heavy rain. Unlike the limited number of javelins carried during conventional combat, this time, Mangzhong thought from the beginning that Fu Ward should pass by here, so he and his young and strong men cut many hardwood javelins. On average, each of the regular soldiers as pitchers had thirteen or fourteen javelins.
Although most of these javelins are wooden guns without iron spear heads, the power bursting out at close range is still quite good under the use of more than two thousand Qiang people with instant power explosion talents.
Even if you can't pierce the armor directly, at this distance, a two-pound hardwood spear hits the elite troops under Fu Ward. Even if you can't kill them, you can still hit the opponent with bruises and swelling, and even vomit blood. If you are not lucky, you hit the head directly, which is not impossible to kill anyone.
After all, the camel cavalry under Fu Ward does not have an outrageous thing like idealistic defense, and there is no possibility of face-to-face javelin.
This is also the reason why the large army needs various functional arms. Even if a single army is strong, it will inevitably be caught in some aspects and then attack the shortcomings with the long. The headquarters under Fu Ward's command is far stronger than the Qiang people in combat, but it does not mean that all advantages lie in these Kushan elites.
"Spout the spear!" After his father led the team to rush up, the eldest son of Mangzhong ordered the Qiang soldiers with a bundle of wooden spears in front of more than 2,000 long snake formations.
Chapter completed!
