Sending a few small groups of soldiers and horses around your main army to pretend to be grassland herdsmen can solve many unnecessary troubles to a certain extent.
Moreover, these small groups of soldiers and horses dressed as grassland herdsmen can also provide necessary reminders to the main army. With these troops and the scouts of Wei Zhang and Tai Shici, Wei Qing can definitely receive the news as soon as the enemy appears.
The reason why Wei Qing did not dress up all the codes as grassland herdsmen, but just let these small groups of troops dress up, was because he was still afraid of affecting the combat effectiveness of the soldiers.
Compared with the grassland nomads who grew up on horseback, compared with these grassland people who have been bending bows and shooting arrows since childhood, the Central Plains cavalry is still much better than the grassland cavalry even after long-term training. insufficient.
However, the equipment of the Central Plains cavalry is not comparable to the prairie cavalry. Armor and weapons are the advantages of the Central Plains cavalry when fighting against the prairie cavalry.
Moreover, even if the quality gap between the two weapons is eliminated, the Central Plains cavalry will have a lot of discomfort when using the scimitars of the prairie cavalry.
Therefore, if the entire army dresses up as grassland herdsmen, it will definitely be held back once an emergency occurs and a battle is needed.
As one of the nomadic people, the Dong Xianbei have no fixed abode and live along rivers and green grass. Their staple food is meat, beef, mutton, etc. Even the poorest grassland family has two cows and a few fat sheep.
Although they only plundered the tribe of Temur, by collecting all the cattle and sheep and making them into dry food, Wei Qing would no longer have to worry about food for a long time to come.
…
In Youzhou, these days, Li Xiang listened to the prompts from the system from time to time, and finally felt a little relieved for Wei Qing and the others.
Although the system will not tell Li Xiang who died in the battle, there will be a system summon point prompt after Li Xiang's men are killed. Moreover, after the general's skills explode, there will be constant prompts.
Through the information collected from the system prompts, Li Xiang also roughly judged that nothing happened to Wei Qing and the others for the time being.
"Nurhaci, now you and other Manchu tribes have been wiped out by our Han army, and more than a dozen tribes have been wiped out. Even your king's tent has been captured by our Han army. If you surrender, I am willing to promise you on behalf of my great Han emperor, Spare your death!" On the chariot, Yang Jian shouted loudly towards the grassland camp opposite. After all, Yang Jian also came to participate in the alliance on behalf of the emperor, so he could only leave this kind of limelight to him.
Behind Yang Jian, there was a group of soldiers roaring together, otherwise Yang Jian's voice alone would not be able to reach very far.
The princes, especially those in the north close to the grassland, headed by Floating Water House and Black Ice Platform, although their intelligence network in the grassland is relatively simple, after so many days, what Wei Qing and the others did in the grassland , especially the sneak attack on Nurhaci's royal tent, it was time for them to receive news.
Therefore, all the princes thought together and decided to take the initiative to fight.
As for the reason why Yang Jian said these words, it was naturally not to make Nurhachi surrender, but to dampen the opponent's morale.
Sure enough, as soon as Yang Jian's words came out, there was a commotion among the Manchu soldiers behind Nurhachi. Not only the Manchu soldiers behind Nurhachi, but also the soldiers from other forces had some slight changes, although this change was much slighter than that of the Manchu soldiers.
"It's ridiculous. You Han people are at your wits' end and are actually trying to deceive a member of our clan with this method!"
Regarding Yang Jian's words, although what the other party said was true, how could Nurhaci admit such a thing.
If he admitted it, wouldn't it be equivalent to destroying the morale of his side before the war? Nurhachi was not a fool, so how could he do such a thing? Anyway, except for the high-level generals who knew the real situation in the rear, Nurhachi did a good job of keeping it secret in other aspects.
"Hahaha, Nurhachi, you know very well whether I deceived you or you wanted to cover up the truth!" Although Nurhachi did not admit it as expected, Yang Jian still laughed.
So what if Nurhachi doesn't admit it? Anyway, his goal has been achieved. Although Nurhachi refused to admit that this method was indeed effective, it would never restore the morale of the soldiers behind him to its original state.
In any case, when Yang Jian said those words, it had already had an impact on the soldiers behind Nurhachi. Even if Nurhaci continues to deny it, the worries in the hearts of these soldiers will never be completely eliminated. Yang Jian's words will leave a shadow in their hearts.
And when the war officially begins later, this worry in their hearts will really affect their combat effectiveness.
"Nurhachi, now the area behind you has been turned into a piece of scorched earth by our Han army. Even your family members have been captured by our Han army. If you don't surrender, you will die without a burial place!" Yang Jian looked from a distance. Looking at Nurhachi's figure, he said very arrogantly.
"The whole army listens to the order and kill me!" Nurhachi knew that he must not let the other party continue talking, otherwise the impact on his own soldiers would be greater and greater. Therefore, Nurhachi launched the attack without consulting Temujin and Tuoba Tao.
"Kill!" As Nurhaci took the lead in starting the battle, several other grassland camp forces also selected their opponents and launched a charge.
"Kill...boom...boom!" The black enemy army was overwhelmingly pressing towards the direction of the coalition of princes.
Li Xiang looked directly at Yelu Abaoji's troops who were charging towards him. Since the other party has found him again, he should teach him how to be a good person to save him from trouble in the future!
"Zhang Xian, Gao Changgong, Qin Qiong, and Yuchi Gong listen to the order!" Yue Fei also carefully observed Yelu Abaoji who was charging towards them, and then ordered with a calm expression.
"The general is here!"
"Zhang Xian and Gao Changgong led the Beiwei army to charge head-on! Qin Qiong and Yuchi Gong led an army of 30,000 men, and waited until the armies of several other princes were in place to charge into the formation with the Beiwei army!"
"The last general takes command!"
Naturally, Li Xiang would not be stupid enough to fight against the opponent alone. Not to mention that he did not have enough troops. Even if he had enough troops, he would have to bring other princes together.
Otherwise, if he relies on his own strength to deal with Yelu Abaoji, he will suffer heavy losses if this battle is fought.
