Chapter 421 A late surprise(2/2)
After Wang Que'er asked for instructions, he ordered the entire black army and two thousand men to be mobilized back to the south bank to stabilize the position there.
The battle in the north is over, so there is no need for so many people.
"We still have to recruit cavalry." Shao Xun smiled freely and said, "Don't worry about one thing and lose that."
Cai Cheng was thoughtful.
He has been with Shao Xun for a long time and knows a lot about him.
In his opinion, was the Liu Han court very good? It was only on par with the Jin court.
Is Liu Han's national power strong? Maybe he is stronger than Chen Gong, but his strength is limited.
Can Liu Han's army fight? It can fight a lot more than before, but it is still not strong enough.
But why can they develop so smoothly?
There is only one reason: there are too many cavalry, so much so that the number of your infantry is far less than the number of other people's cavalry.
Although the Hun cavalry can't defeat the Silver Spear Army head-on, they can choose not to fight, and they can run around and cut off your retreat. The only thing that can limit them is logistical factors.
How difficult it is to attack "the country that draws the bow" with infantry.
"Let's not talk about these disappointing things." Shao Xun said: "Today we defeated the Xiongnu, captured and killed nearly 15,000 people, and captured the Zhemati camp. It can be said that we have taken a crucial step. What to do next, Shunqing will know.
?”
"The South Bridge has been burned. It needs time to recover first," Cai Cheng said.
"What else?" Shao Xun asked.
"Set up camp to stop the Xiongnu army."
"That's right." Shao Xun said, "It's my turn to stay here, but I don't know if the Huns will come."
Cai Cheng did not mention building a city, which is right.
The South Bridge has been destroyed, and the materials and tools of the slaves and slaves on the south bank cannot be transported. After all, there are only so many ships, and they have to provide supplies for the army on the north bank. There is not much spare capacity to undertake other transportation tasks. Some craftsmen on the ferry were killed, and the slaves
Come over here and lay the foundation of Beicheng first.
As for the location of Beicheng, it has actually been decided long ago: one mile north of the Long Beach.
The Three Cities of Heyang was not something Shao Xun pushed for. In fact, it was a project of the imperial court. But Shao Xun was very interested in it and took it over halfway after Wang Yan's persuasion.
His ambition is very big.
Based on the three cities of Heyang, make a northern expedition to Hanoi, and then choose one of the two routes, Shangdang or Ziguan, to attack the core area of Liu Han.
This step is not easy, and it has not been done smoothly so far - the Huns may come to besiege him, and there is Shile on the south bank, but Wang Mi and others have not driven them away.
The wars are one after another and never ending.
