Chapter 278 Special Operations in the Han Dynasty 【Tickets】

Wusun was one of the most important countries in the Han Dynasty connecting the eastern and western grasslands.

Their leader is called "Kunmo" or "Kunmi".

At first, the Wusun people also relied on the Xiongnu as their vassals.

But when they moved to the rich Yili River Basin, they became stronger and stronger, and gradually got rid of the control of the Huns.

Their political center is in Chigu City, where animal husbandry is their main business, and they also run hunting. The horse breeding industry is particularly prosperous.

Later generations lasted for thousands of years. They have always been an important area in the northwest frontier, guarding the east-west land transportation, and are important areas leading to Central Asia, West Asia and southern Xinjiang.

The night was dark.

In the city of Chigu, the capital of King Wusun, Wu Lianye, the younger brother of King Wusun, came to the palace late at night to report something urgent to King Wusun.

"I received a secret report that the Han army is coming to attack my Wusun, and the soldiers and horses have come out of the Yumen camp."

Wu Lian also wore a leather robe, with piercing eyes:

"After the Han army defeated the Xiongnu, I began to pay attention to collecting news about the Han army.

The general who led the Han army to the Western Regions before, named Huo Qubing, was a general of the Han people.

The Xiongnu also hoped that I, Wusun, could lead the army to resist the Han people, so they sent people to send very detailed information. "

He also said: "Huo Qubing and the Xiongnu have fought against each other many times. He is good at running and attacking with soldiers, he can travel thousands of miles a day, and he is used to using strange soldiers, which is unexpected.

I doubt that they are more than the [-] soldiers who came out of Yumen on the surface. "

The Western Regions was also the place where the Four World Wars took place, and Wu Lianye had rich combat experience and was familiar with military matters.

He pondered and judged: "The Han army came out of Yumen to attack Wusun, no matter how fast it was, it would take a week to arrive, but I guess the Han army must have other soldiers and horses, and they would come here earlier than this team.

From now on, we will strengthen our defenses. "

King Wusun was sitting in the bedroom of the palace, wearing a jumpsuit with beige checks.

The night wind blows from the window, and the candles in the hall are flickering.

Covered by the changes of light and dark, his face looks gloomy and has a strong sense of three-dimensionality.

"The first battle between the Han army and my Wusun must be won, so that the Han will be more afraid of my Wusun and dare not easily raise troops."

"Brother Wang, don't worry, in our place, I am sure to win." Wu Lian was also a little excited about the upcoming war.

"What arrangements have you made?"

"Qiuci, Wensu, and Gumo are all close to the Han. If the Han army comes, there is a high probability that they will choose to go north from Qiuci and attack our Wusun border city. This will make it easier for them to supply.

I have sent someone to order overnight to strengthen the defense of the border city. "

Wu Lian also said in a nonchalant way: "Considering that the Han general Huo Qubing is willing to use strange things, and the Western Xiongnu have already surrendered to the Han, I asked the northern front to strengthen their defenses.

If the Han army really used surprise soldiers and chose to come from the western Xiongnu along the northern line and kill them through the Alashan Pass in the north, we would also be prepared. "

King Wusun nodded.

He has always trusted his younger brother's fighting ability.

Wu Lian was also an invincible general in the Western Regions, and he often collided with the Xiongnu in the Western Regions. He fought against other countries in the Western Regions, and he was victorious in every battle.

From his judgment on the coming of the Han army, it can be seen that he is cautious and confident in using troops, and his reputation is well-deserved.

"The Han Chinese envoys who came to deliver the news were expelled by us the day before yesterday, and it is estimated that they have not yet left our Wusun territory. Since the Han army dared to attack my Wusun, let people catch up and kill the Han Chinese envoys to show their ambition and encourage them. Fight to the death with the Han army!"

King Wusun got up after saying that, and walked to the sleeping hall: "Be careful in this battle, put safety first, and you will be responsible for the rest of the arrangements."

……

Wusun is located in the northwest corner of the Western Regions, a vast area south of Alashankou.

King Hunxie and King Tutu led troops from the Hunxie tribe of the Western Xiongnu in the dark, all the way to the west, and quickly advanced along the plains north of the Western Regions.

Their route traveled outside the Western Regions the whole way, and finally came to the north of Wusun Alashan Pass.

Going south from here, you can enter the northern part of Wusun.

Wu Lian was also quite accurate in his judgment on military affairs, and he had considered the Western Huns who had surrendered to Han in advance, anticipating the possible direction of attack along the way.

But he still misjudged two things. First, the time of this journey was earlier than he expected.

On the night when troops were dispatched from the Yumen Camp, they had reached the Alashan Pass along the way.

Huo Qubing had already seen through that Wusun would not return, so he made arrangements earlier than anyone else thought.

After King Chief Tu and King Hunxie went to Chang'an to meet the emperor, they received orders to return to the northwest immediately and secretly dispatched troops to reach the north of Alashankou at this time.

This was the first time Huo Qubing used two Xiongnu kings as generals, so both King Hunxie and King Yitu showed their intentions to show their efforts, and they brought out the best of the best without any delay along the way.

At this time, the two came to the north of Alashankou to station horses in the dark.

This is already close to the westernmost border of the Huns.

The wilderness is boundless, and the stars are lonely.

In the distance, there are undulating low hills and the faint howling of wolves.

Behind them is a team of [-] Huns, Hunxie, and Chief Tu, each with [-] elites, forming together.

"Wulian is also a general of Wusun. In the past, he had many contacts with several of our units. He is proficient in military affairs. We must deal with it carefully."

Chief Tu Wang sat on the horse and said solemnly.

King Hunxie, with long hair and a shawl, scanned his surroundings: "Your Majesty gave us a secret order to come over at the scheduled time, join another Han army, and join forces to attack Wusun.

We have arrived on time, why is there no trace of the other Han army? "

Chief Tu Wang is also looking around.

There is no one in the wilderness, and there are indeed no signs of other soldiers and horses around.

King Hunxie said again: "We came from the north of the Western Regions, and we still have a way to the west from Yumen. It is obvious that we are going to attack Wusun, but in fact it is to attract attention and cover our march.

The real goal of Yumen's journey is Yanqi.

Huo Hou said that the third road to join us, what route did he come to Wusun?
I thought about it for a few days and couldn't figure it out.King Chief Tu, you may see that the third route of soldiers and horses, what route is it taking? "

King Tu Tu shook his head and said, "I have personally experienced Huo Hou's use of troops. They are often unexpected and unpredictable. The other Han army is the key to breaking Wusun this time. How can I see through it?"

King Chief Tu didn't notice the presence of Han troops around him, so he took out an emerald green leaf with flowing texture.

These are concentric lotus leaves, Huo Qubing asked them to contact another army, or to report the progress of the march.

King Chief Tu immediately pushed the imprint of divine sense on the leaves, and contacted another group of soldiers and horses.

The leaf soon had textures glowing, and a response emerged:
"Come south!"

...King Chief Tu and King Hunxie looked south.

Further south is the Alashan Pass, and after passing the pass, it will enter the Yili River Plain in Wusun.

"They came earlier than us, and continued to go south through the Alashan Pass, which is the northern border city of Wusun, Ale Valley City."

King Chief Tu and King Hunxie had a brief discussion, and then led their army to ride south, preparing to join another Han army.

They approached the area south of Alashankou in the early morning.

On the plain highland ahead, there is a Cypriot city.

The so-called Cypriot city was mainly built for military purposes, and the scale is generally small.

The Aare Valley City is built with loess and built according to the steep and towering terrain of the remaining veins of the Alashan Pass.

This fortified city occupies the highest position in the surrounding area, facing cliffs on three sides. It is the northern border city of Wusun. It is heavily defended, easy to defend and difficult to attack.

Although there were only [-] defenders in the city, it was never breached after it was built.

King Hunxie and King Chief Tu led their troops and met another Han army in a dry valley.

The Han army seemed to rise from nothingness, a mist appeared, and it manifested out of thin air.

King Hunxie and King Chief Tu were both in low spirits.

This method of manifesting out of thin air shows that the Han army in front of him is the direct descendant of Huo Qubing, and they cannot imitate it even if they want to.

The lieutenant of the Han army leader, holding a slip of the plan to hide the sky and cross the sea, showed his traces and greeted:
"Hou Ye sent a secret order, let me join forces with you here, break through the northern line of Wusun, and go straight to the direction of Chigu, the king's city. Wait for the Li Gan troops on the southern line to come from Yanqi, and we will join us one east and one north, two routes at the same time Swing troops to attack Wusun King Capital."

The speaking lieutenant was dressed in light armor, tall and strong, about 25 or [-] years old, holding an extremely thick bronze horse!

Those who can use this kind of copper moon are all brave generals who have fallen into the enemy on the battlefield.

The weapon Shuo should have been available in the Han and Tang Dynasties, but in the current world, Ma Shuo already existed in the Qin Dynasty.

After I entered the Han Dynasty, I heard that there were eight major lieutenants under the command of the Forbidden Army, all of whom were young generals trained by Huo Hou. The Zhao Puonu, Chen Qing, and Fu Luzhi I met before were all among them. This one in front of me should also be... Hunxie Wang thought.

King Chief Tu was looking at his surroundings.

He and King Hunxie communicated in advance and led a small group of troops to hide and join them. The large group of Hun Ma Shang was waiting dozens of miles away.

And above the valley where they meet is Saicheng, the valley of Wusun.

"Has Master Hou ever explained how to destroy this fortress?" King Hunxie asked seeing that the sky was about to dawn.

The young lieutenant on the opposite side said: "My name is Zhao Anji, one of the eight lieutenants of the Forbidden Army under Lord Hou's command. I command two thousand soldiers and come to join you. My men have already gone up, and we will also go up to have a look."

"Go up?"

King Hunxie glanced at the steep and almost vertical cliff, and the starry sky revealed a long line above the cliff: "You go up from here to attack Hegu City?
How did you get there? "

King Hunxie and King Chiefu followed Zhao Anji to a corner of the cliff, and saw a spectacle.

Drill a hole on the cliff, stuff it into a palm-width, and point to the thickness of the bronze plate, and go up step by step, forming a "zigzag" shape, like a ladder to climb the sky, extending to the top of the cliff.

The Huns had never seen the way the Han army dug plank roads on the cliffs, and they were very surprised.

Is the Han army going to use this method to climb the cliff and surprise Hegu City?
King Hunxie looked at the nearest piece of bronze plate stuffed into the cliff, and asked in surprise, "How is this built?"

In the landform of the Northwest, the sandy soil looks soft, but the rock walls have withstood tens of thousands of years of wind and sun, and they stand still. Some cliff walls are as strong as iron stones.

If you want to drill a hole and insert the copper plate, you need to climb up a hundred-foot-high cliff along the road, especially when there are Wusun soldiers stationed above it. It is very difficult to keep hidden and not make any noise.

This kind of surprise attack method that goes deep into the enemy's rear, crosses mountains and mountains, and is omnipotent is called special operations behind the enemy in modern times.

In this era, only Huo Qubing consciously trained an elite imperial army to develop in the direction of special operations.

The equipment and the concept of war of this Han army are all ahead of this era.

Hunxie and King Tutu had never seen each other before, so they were amazed.

"My imperial army's usual training items include digging cliffs to build plank roads. It's just that the earth and rock structure here is a little different from the mountains in my Han territory, and it took a little more effort.

The copper climbing ladder stuffed into the cliff was made by Mohist craftsmen according to Huohou's requirements. There are organic buckles inside.When you take it off, use a specific method to retract the buckle before you can take it out. "

"Let's go up."

Zhao Anji stepped on the copper plate with energy, carried Changshuo on his back, using his hands and feet together, he climbed up the rock wall with agility like an ape, and disappeared from the sight of the two.

The small group of Han soldiers behind him also climbed up the cliff at an astonishingly fast speed with the help of copper plates.

Just looking at the level of proficiency, you can tell that they often practice climbing cliffs.

King Hunxie watched the methods of the Han army and was greatly comforted.

They were defeated by the Han army before, but now seeing the elite Han army, they felt very happy, and the defeat was not wronged.If it was replaced by other Huns, they would have to lose.

Just look at people who can climb cliffs to fight, will you?
"You go first!" King Hunxie looked at King Tutu.

King Tutu asked back, "Why don't you go up?"

King Hunxie was a little embarrassed: "I don't know why, I feel a little dizzy when I climb up."

At present, there is no such thing as a fear of heights. Fortunately, King Hunxie's fear of heights is not serious.

In the end, he and King Tu Tu climbed to the top of the cliff one after another relying on their practice.

The two of them boarded the cliff, and the oblique front winds up tens of feet, and there is the Wusun River Valley City under the night.

And the place where they climbed up was separated from the highland where River Valley City was located by a canyon crack six to seven feet wide.

"Since we are climbing up, why don't we just climb the cliff on the side where Hegu City is located? Wouldn't it be easier?" King Hunxie asked in a low voice.

"If you climb directly on the opposite side, when you build a plank road on the cliff, it will cause slight mountain vibrations, which may arouse the other party's alertness.

We mentioned in the training that when climbing a cliff, you should climb the side without the city to prevent being discovered by the other party. " Zhao Anji explained.

Above the crack in the canyon, the hook lock has already been set up.

Before King Hunxie and others came up, many Han soldiers had turned over and touched Hegu City.

When King Hunxie and a group of Xiongnu soldiers borrowed ropes to cross the cliff with difficulty, the gate of the river valley opposite was quietly opened, and the Han army had already touched and controlled it.

At the head of the city, a group of Wusun soldiers fell silently in a pool of blood.

It seems that he was touched by the Han army, cut his throat and killed him, and there was no movement at all.

This is the essence of special operations.

Huo Qubing's Han army is still in the process of exploring special operations, so it can't be considered mature.

But this team is destined to shine in the near future.

In the early morning, in the ancient city of Hehe in the north of Wusun, there was a sudden cry of killing.

But the voice only lasted for a short time before it weakened.

At dawn, the Han army and the Xiongnu soldiers joined together, a total of more than [-] people, and rushed to Wusun territory in the south.

Changan.

Huo Qubing was in the emperor's study when he received the news that the Han army had entered Wusun from the northern front.

Roshna, Qiuci, Gumo, the lords of Wensu and other people from the Western Regions were also there.

Roshna asked the common doubts of everyone: "Where did Huo Hou's soldiers and horses pass through and enter Wusun, breaking through its northern border city and entering its territory?"

"It is also from the direction of the Western Huns, but the time is different from what you think. It has been almost a month since they entered the Western Huns."

Roshna asked unexpectedly, "So long?"

"Wusun is located at the northwest end of the Western Regions, and it is the most affluent area. If they give up their rich land for nothing and invest in the big men, no one will do it."

Huo Qubing said: "Since it is expected that Wusun will not surrender, we must fight in the future. During the Battle of Hexi, there was an arrangement against Wusun.

Later, accepting the surrender of the Western Huns, let the Han army go to various parts of the Western Huns to meet the tribes that escorted them, and migrate to Xiutuze. At that time, my Han army scattered into the Western Huns, broke them into pieces, and then gathered south to wait for the opportunity. Close to Wusun. "

He added: "This battle is also a kind of training for them, as a test.

After entering the Western Huns, first survive in the wild, and attack Wusun at the set time to complete the combat goal.Therefore, they carry very little luggage, keep it secret, and self-sufficiency is the purpose of the assessment. "

Everyone had a wonderful feeling when they heard it.

The soldiers and horses dealing with Wusun actually took advantage of the opportunity of the migration of the various tribes of the Western Huns to plant their roots.

At the right time, there was a lot of people and horses coming out of the camp. When the small Han army went out to meet and escort the various tribes of the Western Huns, they dispersed, so the arrangement could be completed without traces.
