    Hundreds of soldiers holding swords, guns, and torches guard the Chinese army's tent, which is protected from the elements. A secret military meeting concerning life and death is in progress, and the participants are all senior generals of the Han army!

    Based on the intelligence collected recently and his own personal observations, Xiao Yi analyzed in detail the combat effectiveness, strengths and weaknesses of the Qiang army, and together with others, repeatedly deduced various possible battle situations on the map.  !

    Near Chang'an, there are all the plains created by the Wei River all year round. The terrain here is flat and the soil is hard, which is very suitable for large groups of cavalry to fight. The Han army, which is mainly infantry, has no city to rely on, and 50,000 Qiang cavalry.  In a field battle, winning is almost impossible!

    ¡°It¡¯s too dangerous and risky to fight on foot against a horse!¡±

    "If the Qiang people launch a group charge and tens of thousands of war horses come stampeding at them, their flesh and blood alone will not be able to stop them!"

    "In my opinion, we should take a step back, rely on the city, and shoot with crossbows to have any chance of winning!"

    Most of them are veterans on the battlefield. In their memory, there has been no precedent for a large group of infantry to defeat the cavalry from ancient times to the present. When Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty conquered the Huns in the north, after the country became strong, he did not hesitate to spend countless money and food to establish a powerful cavalry group.  , and only with the command of outstanding generals like Wei Qing and Huo Qubing did we succeed.

    As for "beating cavalry with steps", since King Wuling of Zhao established a cavalry force by "riding and shooting in Hufu", there has never been such a battle in the Central Plains!

    Therefore, many generals suggested letting go of the siege of Chang'an, retreating the entire army to the west, luring the Qiang people deep into the interior, lengthening the front line, gradually draining their energy, and finally launching a counterattack relying on the strong city to win a complete victory!

    Staring at the map in front of him, every river and city on it was deeply imprinted in Xiao Yi's mind, and resurrected there, forming a three-dimensional world where countless soldiers and horses fought and fought.  Finally, the whole world was dyed blood red!

    "No, we must not let these bastards continue to penetrate into the Han Dynasty!" Xiao Yi slammed the table, his eyes filled with murderous intent. He knew that the generals' suggestions were correct in terms of strategy and tactics, but once the Qiang  If the people's army is released, the Han people in the prefectures and counties along the way will inevitably suffer, and even the entire Guanzhong will be harmed. In that case, even if the final victory is achieved, it will be meaningless!

    ? It is only right to serve as a soldier to protect the country. If you can't even protect the country, what are you doing as a soldier?

    As for riding on foot, who says you can¡¯t win?  Xiao Yi smiled coldly and touched his nose, "Daniu, Ma Liu, are you ready with what I want?"

    "According to the order of the Metropolitan Governor, everything is ready!" Ma Liuxian stood up, carefully took out a wooden box from his arms, opened it, and placed it on the handsome case.

    " Carefully pinch out the contents and put it in the palm of your hand. Xiao Yi couldn't help laughing. With this treasure, even if he has thousands of horses and thousands of troops, he can't move even an inch!

    The Cao brothers who had been standing behind all stretched their heads over and saw that Xiao Yi was holding a small iron object in the palm of his hand. There was a round hole in the middle and four iron thorns sticking out. It was about several inches long and very large.  It's sharp, and the most amazing thing is that no matter how it is placed, one side always faces upward.

    The three brothers were very smart and immediately thought of a terrible scenario. They scattered these "iron caltrops" densely on the ground. Once the cavalry horses stepped on them, the consequences would be

    "It shudders!"

    "How many were made in total?" Xiao Yi asked, holding the caltrop in his hand.

    "The blacksmiths in the army worked day and night, using clay to make molds, pouring molten iron, and then grinding the four iron thorns with grinding wheels. They all implemented what the governor called 'flow work'. So far, more than 100,000 pieces have been produced!" Ma Liu's  There was nothing but admiration in his eyes. He had personally tested it. This little caltrop was definitely the nemesis of the cavalry!

    "More than 100,000 pieces are barely enough!" Xiao Yi thought about it and nodded, "Daniu, how are your preparations going?"

    "It's ready, three thousand soldiers are practicing formation day and night!" Daniel was holding a strange-looking long knife in his hand, with double blades, thick back, and long pole, all made of fine iron. You can tell just by looking at the appearance  , the weight is not light!

    "In order to create these treasures, all the fine iron in the army was consumed, and some captured weapons were melted to make up for it, but the power of this thing is worth it!"

    Yes, this is the second treasure Xiao Yi used to restrain the Qiang cavalry~~'The Han Mo Dao!  ¡¯

    The Mo Dao originally had to wait hundreds of years before it would appear on the stage of history. However, because of Xiao Yi, this great weapon wasWas born before now!

    With a three-foot blade and a four-foot blade, it is almost as tall as an adult. It is edged on both sides and has a thick ridge in the middle, making it very useful for chopping. With enough strength, it can be used as a large shield.  It can be split in half; but this baby also has a drawback, it is too heavy!

    Due to the quality of the fine iron and the craftsmanship, this Mo Dao weighs at least forty kilograms, which is almost as heavy as the weapons of the generals. If you want to wield it, you must choose those who are over eight feet tall and have extraordinary arm strength.  Only brave warriors can do it, and the fighting time will definitely not last long!

    "However, Xiao Yi has no intention of letting the soldiers run around the world carrying the Mo Dao. As long as the three thousand Mo Dao army can wield this lethal weapon at the most critical moment, it will be enough!

    The evaluation of Mo Dao in history is'The sword is as long as a forest, and it advances like a wall. Both men and horses are smashed, and it is invincible!  ¡¯

    "Continue to practice harder. When the time comes, you will lead the team in person and let those Qiang people see how powerful my Han family is!" Xiao Yi returned the Mo Dao to Daniel, and Xiao Yi's eyes were full of excitement. With these two  With this treasure in hand, I have at least a 70% chance of winning. As for the remaining 30%, I just have to rely on God¡¯s blessing!

    No general dares to boast of 100% victory in battles, not even Han Xin, the "Fighter of Military Strategies", because there are too many unpredictable things on the battlefield. A strong wind, a heavy rain, or a stray arrow may cause the entire army to lose control.  Defeat, war is a gamble, and a 70% certainty is enough for a commander to increase his capital!

    "The rest of the troops should step up their training to prepare for a decisive battle with the Qiang people!"

    "No!"

    The generals agreed in unison, and the military order has been issued. Since the Governor wants to fight, everyone should be ready to fight!

    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­  ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­

    On the banks of the Weishui River, in the Qiang camp, the chiefs of the thirty-six tribes are also preparing for the decisive battle. No, it should be said to be the thirty-five tribes. Because Zhelan has become a prisoner, her tribe refuses to go to war. On the contrary, they are still preparing.  Property, hoping to redeem his chief from the Han army!

    The big leader Bai Lang sat cross-legged on the sheepskin mat with a look of annoyance on his face. When he sent the men of the 'Zhelan Tribe' to harass the Han army, he originally planned to take the opportunity to consume their strength. Who would have known that these stupid women  The harassment failed, but he also had to pay for himself. Before the battle started, one of the chiefs was captured, which was a huge blow to morale!

    However, this also gave me an opportunity. As long as I could defeat the Han army in front of me, I could use the remaining power of the victory to annex the people and territory of the 'Zhelan Tribe'. At that time, other tribes would not dare to say anything.  If he really gets to that point, he, Bailang, will be the real 'King of the Qiang people'. As for Zhelan, it doesn't matter whether he is alive or dead. Compared with the throne, what does a woman mean?

    Even if it¡¯s a woman who makes your heart flutter!

    "Chiefs of all ministries, after this period of testing, we already know the actual strength of the Han army. They are just lambs walking on two legs. It's time to draw out the sabers, mount the horses, and stand under the golden wolf banner.  Under their guidance, we will flatten their camps and plunder endless wealth!"

    After listening to White Wolf¡¯s encouragement, the chiefs turned their attention to the old chief of the ¡®Blackwater Department¡¯. This wise old man¡¯s vision has always been accurate and can almost predict the outcome of the war!

    "I went around Chang'an, and they were all good battlefields with vast plains. Here, children could gallop to their heart's content, and teach the Han people a lesson with iron hoofs and sabers!"

    The old chief of Heishui nodded. The weather and the right location are now very favorable to the Qiang people. Unless the gods come down to earth, they will definitely win!

    "Bless the White Wolf God!"

    "Bless the White Wolf God!"

    Both chiefs agreed to send troops, and the Qiang camp suddenly burst into howls!  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
