"As for the troops that drive animals, that kind of troops don't actually have strong frontal combat capabilities..." Lu Jun made a simple gesture in his hand and explained the usefulness of this kind of troops, "It can provide early warning, warning, path exploration, search, etc. etc., which is equivalent to a natural scout, with the advantages of being difficult to be discovered and easy to hide..."
"Having such an ability, doesn't it mean that once we enter the southern barbarian land, we have to act under the eyes of the barbarians at all times?!" Wang Lei said in shock.
At this same moment, Wang Lei finally understood why his previous expeditions had failed several times and even lost some soldiers and horses.
Entering the land of the Southern Barbarians, a snake, an insect, a bird, or any animal may become the sight of the Southern Barbarians.
Naturally no one would pay attention to this very common animal.
In this case, the Southern Barbarians naturally ensured their unobstructed line of sight and gained the first intelligence advantage.
If the Han army is small, attack them; if the Han army is large, hide them.
Anyway, the mountain is so big and stretches for thousands of miles. If you want to avoid one or two Han troops in it, it is very easy if you can get the intelligence of the Han people's march.
"Although it is true to say that, even among the southern barbarians, there are only a few people with this ability. There may be more people like Mulu and his tribe..." Lu Jun was a little bit Said uncertainly.
Zhang Ren and Wang Lei looked at each other, looking at each other.
"If the Southern Barbarians really have this kind of strength, then with the strength of our army, even if we fight head-on, the possibility of victory is close to zero." Zhang Ren put away the cloth in his hand and said seriously, "No matter what In terms of numbers and experts, Nanman’s strength is not inferior to that of Yizhou.”
"I can't help it. I'm not talking about this strength. It's the information I learned. He is like this..." Lu Jun sighed and said helplessly.
The Southern Barbarians in the novel have basically never been pacified during Liu Zhang's tenure, and the fighting between the two sides can be said to come and go.
When the Nanman barbarians were in serious trouble, the southern part of Yizhou was basically non-existent, which already shows the combat effectiveness of this group of barbarians.
As for Zhuge Liang's subsequent southern expedition, that's another story.
Zhuge Liang, who was already in his prime, could still reach 70 to 80% of his peak strength even if he had not reached his peak. But even so, he still lost some generals despite his small army.
This kind of battle result is enough to show that the environment in Nanman is ferocious and the people's fighting power is not weak.
Although everyone regarded Meng Huo's seven entries and seven exits from Zhuge Liang's army camp as a joke.
But if you change another person, see if he can enter and exit Zhuge Liang's army camp seven times.
If he were replaced by the mythical version of Zhuge Liang, Meng Huo could still maintain his record in the novel, which would be enough to be called a famous general.
"This is a bit of a headache. Can we really make a difference based on the results in hand?" Zhang Ren simply calculated. The materials consumed by the army this time, as well as the results and battle losses created, were completely unknown. After reporting the results to Liu Zhang, can Liu Zhang be satisfied?
"The results of this expedition can still be compared. Although the results are not great, it is a complete victory at least, which can still appease the other generals." Wang Lei, who was on the side, after a simple calculation, still gave a reliable answer. spectrum answer.
Zhang Ren breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this answer.
You treat me with the courtesy of a scholar of the country, and I treat you with the courtesy of a scholar of the country. A scholar will die for a confidant.
Liu Zhang treated him like this, and if he could not repay Liu Zhang's kindness, he would not be able to live with it in his heart.
"Going further north is Hanzhong. The road is winding and dangerous. General Zhang's troops alone are not enough." Lu Jun stood on Nanshan, looked at the pass in front, and changed the subject in a rather relaxed tone.
Even a hundred people in the cross-section cannot be dispersed. With this siege width and a mere legion, forcibly attacking the city is no different than seeking death.
The wheel battle is no different from the refueling tactic, but this is not Jianmenguan.
The Jianmen Pass seems to be even more outrageous. One man can pass it, and no one can open it.
"It seems that Zhang Lu has indeed released a lot of people here. As a result, there is really no hope. Let's withdraw our troops and go back." Zhang Ren carefully glanced at the people on the pass, confirmed the approximate number of people, and sighed. said.
It had been many years since he had attacked Hanzhong, and he thought that Zhang Lu might have been negligent, which might allow him to find an opportunity and defeat him in a single battle.
It turned out that he was overthinking, and the enemy was obviously on guard, so this was probably not the outcome.
Sure enough, we should go back to Yizhou and call people directly to open a broad road to Hanzhong!
"I just came here to take a look and confirm Zhang Lu's defense." Wang Lei didn't care much about it.
The pass was built here to protect not only the soldiers from Yizhou, but also the barbarians they encountered on the road.
Although the frequency of their attacks has become lower, it does not mean that the frequency of barbarian attacks has become lower.
In this case, it is not surprising to have such a defense.
"Then we will think of a way to either fight out the Qiang people in western Yizhou or contain them to completely resolve the chaos in western Yizhou." Zhang Ren withdrew his gaze and said as calmly as possible.
The entire Yizhou, except for the Chengdu Plain and the huge basin, is full of barbarians and foreign races.
I have absolutely no idea how many of these people there are, and I can’t even tell the approximate number.
"At least in this expedition, we can deal with the barbarians in the north, which is pretty good. Although the defense force cannot be reduced, it is relatively easy..." Wang Lei nodded and said with satisfaction.
Lu Jun did not say anything about this, but just looked at the surrounding terrain and various strange mountains and mountains.
When Wang Lei and Zhang Ren left, they directly chose to follow them, returned to the army, broke camp and returned directly to Chengdu.
After that, he would rest for a period of time, then go west from Chengdu and head straight to Wenshan County to exterminate or capture the Qiang people there. While reducing foreign aggression, he would also expand his own strength and consolidate the foundation of Yizhou.
In the process, Zhang Ren also led his troops to accumulate combat experience, and continued to deepen his legion talents, making his legion talents more able to influence people's hearts.
Lu Jun, on the other hand, is relatively simple, just look more and shop more.
Seeing Zhang Ren's increasing acceptance of strong men's quotes, Lu Jun became more and more satisfied.
When the time is right, you can take out the enhanced version of Quotations from Strong Men.
