…
The distance is not that far, but it brings completely different effects and displays.
By the time Cao Chun and others received the message, the army led by Qiu Linbei was less than fifty miles away from them.
And this distance means that it is basically difficult for them to get rid of each other.
Especially the army they led, half of which were infantry, not to mention that there was Huangshui behind them, so the possibility of retreat was relatively low.
But this was just the possibility of retreat. Neither Cao Chun nor Ma Chao took their opponents seriously.
The mere 80,000 Qiang people were nothing to Cao Chun.
Not only was there no fear in my heart, but it was full of excitement.
Along the way, he killed tens of thousands of Qiang people.
And most of the time, no one is left alive. He is an absolute professional when it comes to eradicating the roots.
"I guess this is the main force of the Qiang rebel army. It seems that we are quite lucky. Instead of going to trouble them, we came up on our own initiative!" A smile appeared on the corner of Cao Chun's mouth, revealing his excitement and also showing A hint of cruelty.
Cao Xiu nodded in understanding. The Qiang people had already become like this, but they still dared to attack them. I'm afraid they didn't understand how the word "death" was written.
But precisely because of this, another possibility popped up in Cao Xiu's mind.
"Let's go straight to the field and defeat the opponent in one battle. Then we can withdraw our troops and return to the court!" Cao Xiu said with excitement.
"That's right, why are you thinking so much? How can you lose? Just fight and that's it!" Ma Chao looked at the weapon in his hand and nodded directly to deal with it.
Only Pang De looked into the distance, always feeling a little uneasy in his heart, but after looking at the army behind him, his mood became a little more stable.
Although the Qiang people are large in number and have good fighting ability, it depends on who the opponent is.
With the strength in their hands, even if they are unable to win head-on, it is quite easy to protect themselves.
Only Cao Ang couldn't help but frowned after hearing such words.
He often accepted Cao De's teachings and understood something in his heart.
That is the Qiang people, and they have their own heritage.
Although most of the Qiang tribes in Liangzhou have suffered from their calculations and lost a lot of their elite backbones.
However, there are still a large number of good players among them, and there are also key elements.
In addition to the accumulation of hundreds of years of Qiang-Han wars, there is also the legacy of the Han Dynasty, which has created the current strength of the Qiang people.
When Xiliang cavalry Li Jue and others went west, they did not use their strength to fight out. Instead, as long as the Qiang people avoided them, Li Jue and others pretended not to see them.
This seemingly simple performance also illustrates the Qiang people's own heritage.
What's more, Cao Ang turned his head and looked at the cavalry under Ma Chao's command, and his expression became even heavier.
The physical quality of this cavalry unit reflects the Qiang people's heritage.
From the nearly 100,000 Qiang cavalry, the best ones were selected to form a legion.
After going through many hardships, I gained my first talent for unity and traveled a considerable distance.
Moreover, this unified talent, after adding Ma Chao's legion talent, already has the power to compete with the truly elite legion.
On the contrary, Pang De, who was also born in Liangzhou, did not receive great care from Ma Teng and Han Sui because of his identity.
There was an ordinary Qiang Cavalry Legion, but it didn't match his legion's talent.
In order to avoid waste, the main members of Pound's cavalry corps were Han Chinese soldiers from the Yongliang area.
The basic quality and combat effectiveness are guaranteed, coupled with the terrifying legion talent, the entire legion is enough to be called an elite.
Cao Ang calculated the strength of the army and couldn't help but fell into deep thought.
Then I did a simple conversion in my mind.
Changing the opponent to the 80,000 Qiang Cavalry led by Ma Teng, it was finally discovered that their basic hard power was still higher.
Considering this, Cao Ang glanced at the high-spirited Cao Chun and slowly breathed a sigh of relief.
If that's the case, then forget about it. With hard power here, even if there is any loss, it won't be too big.
After all, the army has to be trained on the battlefield, and it is not good to be afraid of losses all the time.
"You didn't hide?" Qiu Linbei stretched out his hand, listening to the message sent back by the war eagle, his face became a little heavier.
Faced with the overwhelming force of his army, the Han army, which was only half his number, showed no fear at all. Instead, they stayed where they were and buried pots to cook, quite thinking of starting a fight when they were full.
The Han and Qiang people have been fighting for hundreds of years, and they both know each other very well.
Under such circumstances, it was naturally impossible for the army that set out from Chang'an, the capital of the Han Empire, to lose intelligence.
"Are you confident to this extent?" Qiu Linbei calmly glanced at the people around him and slowly lowered his head.
That's all, calculating defeat before calculating victory, and planning the retreat in advance can be considered a success.
Whether he is arrogant or arrogant, if he is so confident, he is probably quite capable, so it is better to be careful!
After all, the population of this tribe is not large, so Qiulin Monument can only be careful.
While testing the elite strength of the Han army, he tried every means to ensure the survival rate of his own population.
Although he was quite unhappy in his heart, Qiulin Monument could only choose to do this.
How could he be willing to do this if there were enough people?
"Inform the Qiang leader to come with me to meet the Han troops!" Qiulin Bei said casually to the messenger beside him.
Among this large army, he is the absolute main force. Without his participation, the other Qiang troops would be like a piece of scattered sand with no fighting power at all.
Qiulin Bei conquered the Qiang people with his own force. Before there were other superior commanders, he had the command power of these Qiang tribes.
After all, he has changed his banner and is now classified as a Qiang.
This is the superficial identity he has, and it is also a special protection.
Of course, as a price, he could not pass on the name of the Huns, or the title and spirit of the Huns, to these Qiang people, and change the state of these Qiang people in their hearts and wills.
Skilfully getting on his horse, Qiulin Bei broke up his own army, coordinated the army at the same time, and headed towards Cao Chun's army!
There are no other reinforcements, and there are no other Han troops. There are only 40,000 Han troops. Let's fight first.
From the normal marching state, it directly changes to the waiting state.
Wear weapons and armor, take your own weapons, and face the enemy in battle.
Qiulin Monument looked towards the distant horizon, his eyes full of coldness.
The opponent that has lasted for four hundred years, let me see how powerful it still is after so many years!
