The Turks are divided into three parts.
The great Turkic Khan, the king of the left capital, and the king of the right capital. But there are many famous kings in subdivisions, who govern their respective tribes.
The tribe of King Zuodu borders Gansu, but the tribe of King Zuodu does not border Gansu.
The Turkic tribe closest to Gansu is the Youjunwang tribe.
The royal army of the Right Army is not large in size, with a population of just over 5,000 and a thousand soldiers. There is no royal city, and we live in grass.
Tribal gathering place.
Tent after tent stands on the flat ground, next to the river. The wind was biting and there was not a single cow or sheep on the barren land.
It's winter.
There is no grass on the ground to eat, and cattle and sheep may freeze to death. The Turks kept their cattle and sheep in tents and fed them with stored fodder.
Before winter, the Turks also slaughtered many cattle and sheep to prepare enough food for the winter. Meat does not rot easily in winter, and cattle and sheep are fattest in autumn.
When winter comes, cattle and sheep have to survive the winter, and there will be less and less meat.
The biggest difference between nomadic people and agricultural people is. The food of farming people can be stored for several years. Meat is not acceptable.
Once the winter is too cold, cattle and sheep freeze to death in large numbers. If the Turks have no food, they will change from a people singing and dancing to men haring horses, wielding machetes, and turning into robbers.
China is prosperous, and if you enter China, you will have food.
This is the fundamental contradiction between grassland and farming.
Now that the Han Dynasty was strong and powerful, the Turks gathered hundreds of thousands of people to attack Yumen Pass. They were beaten to a pulp by the Han Emperor, who almost cried for father and mother.
The Turks dare not go to Gansu to fight the autumn wind even if they are beaten to death.
Fortunately, today's winter is not particularly cold, so the Turks can survive the winter smoothly.
But in turn, they had to guard against Han army robbery.
The geographical location of the King's Department of the Right Army was the first to bear the brunt. The King of the Right Army was very cautious and led his cavalry to patrol the border areas almost every day.
It was the same this morning.
The king of the right army commanded more than a hundred cavalry to inspect his territory. Although he was wearing thick sheepskin clothes, the cold wind still made him feel biting.
He sighed and looked down at the horse under him, showing worry.
Such a winter. Not only were the cattle and sheep emaciated, but the war horses were also emaciated. If a war breaks out, how can we defend ourselves against the enemy?
and.
The King of the Right Army showed fear and couldn't help but recall the battle outside Yumen Pass. The man who seemed to be a demon god was walking across the battlefield with a horse in his hand.
Thousands of elite soldiers defeated 100,000 Turks.
The Turks are making such men their enemies.
It's easy for other tribes to stay away from Gansu, but I am the first to bear the brunt.
"Both are Han people. Why are Chu and Han so different?" King Youjun thought through gritted teeth.
Although Han Laocheng from Gansu is also very good, compared with Wu Nian, he is really a world away.
In the past, when Turks and Han Laocheng were neighbors, it was really like heaven.
During the patrol in the cold wind, the right army king was in a very low mood, and so were the other cavalrymen.
Why.
at this time. One of the cavalrymen's expression changed drastically, and he said to the King of the Right Army: "Your Majesty, there is movement."
"It's the Han army!!!" The king of the right army trembled and shouted. It's really here.
It's really here.
The Han army really went on an expedition to the Western Regions to destroy our Turks. In an instant, the king of the right army had the urge to turn his horse's head and run away immediately.
The shadow of the battle at Yumen Pass is like a lingering nightmare.
Unstoppable.
Unstoppable.
If the Han army really attacks in a large scale, apart from other things, with the strength of the right army, it will definitely not be able to stop it.
All he can do is serve as an outpost and convey military information back.
But soon the king of the right army calmed down, and whenever the army moved, he would always send scouting horses to avoid being ambushed. Judging from the noise, there weren't many people coming, so it must be the Han army scouting the horse.
The King of the Right Army regained his confidence and said to himself: "I can't deal with the main force of the Han army, so why can't I still deal with the Han army's probing horses?"
However, he made two preparations, turned to a confidant beside him and said: "Go back to the tribe immediately and let the tribe prepare to migrate."
"Yes." The confidant nodded, immediately turned the horse's head and headed towards the tribe.
"Warriors. This must be the Han army's scouting horse. There are not many of them. Follow me and defeat them." As soon as his confidants left, the King of the Right Army immediately showed a stern look, pulled out the scimitar from his waist, and shouted.
More than a hundred Turkic cavalrymen immediately woke up, their fear suddenly disappeared, their spirits were lifted, and they either pulled out the scimitars from their waists, or took off the bows and arrows behind their horses, and prepared for battle.
Big fish eat small fish.
We have more than a hundred horses, but we still can't kill the Han army's detective horses?
"Drive!!!!" Under the leadership of the King of the Right Army, these more than a hundred horses galloped towards the direction where the movement came from.
............
The Han army came to explore the horse, and there were two teams.
Twenty-three people in total.
The extra person was none other than King Wu Min of Qi. He ignored the advice of his subordinates and personally led the expedition to spy on the military situation.
Wu Min smiled and said to the people around him: "Although it is a confrontation between the two countries, we came here day and night. The Turks must not be prepared to fight."
"Don't look at me going deep alone. It's actually very safe."
Wu Min is extremely courageous, and looks calm despite the wind and fire. But Tan Ma beside him was extremely nervous.
We are already close to the King's headquarters of the Right Army here, if we encounter enemy troops.
It really comes to whatever you want. When one of the horse scouts' ears twitched, he immediately turned over and dismounted. He put his ears to the ground to listen for vibrations. After a while, he quickly stood up and reported: "Your Highness. Someone is approaching us quickly. There are about a hundred riders."
"Only a hundred riders?" Upon hearing this, the others immediately relaxed their nervousness and showed excited expressions.
"It's a small group of troops on patrol. They discovered us first and wanted to eat us. The Turks are still on guard." Wu Min laughed loudly, took out the bow from behind the horse, and ordered: "With war."
"Double credit."
"yes."
The twenty-two Tanma were immediately delighted, clasping their fists and shouting loudly.
"Da da da!!!" Wu Min commanded the twenty-two cavalry, whipping up a strong wind and heading towards the direction where the movement came from.
Both sides were determined to eat each other and soon met.
In terms of numbers.
The Turks had the absolute upper hand.
But in terms of horses, the Turks' horses were thin and the Han army's horses were extremely fat. The Han army is different from the Turks. Even in winter, they have plenty of fodder, as well as soybeans and eggs.
It's hard for a war horse not to be fat.
The King of the Right Army saw that the opponent only had about twenty cavalry, and immediately showed joy, turned around and said: "Warriors, kill them all, take off their armor, and seize the horses."
"Kill!!!!" Youjunwang roared and rushed out at the lead.
"Kill!!!!" More than a hundred Turkic cavalrymen followed suit with their eyes shining brightly and howling.
Wu Min narrowed his eyes and shouted: "The leader's armor is very gorgeous, and his identity may not be simple. Don't shoot at him with bows and arrows, or catch him alive."
"yes."
The twenty-two scouts responded loudly and took out the war bow behind the horse.
