Chapter 1449
Leaving and Returning
...
Li Dian, who confirmed the information again, instantly understood what Zhao Yun said.
This kind of attack and robbery came too late. Even if it was affected by heavy snow, it would not come so late.
"In that case, Marshal Zhao! Then what should we do? Send troops to rescue?" Li Dian asked for instructions on the spot.
"We must save. As for the possibility of being surrounded and calling for reinforcements, it should be small. There is no need for the Huns to be so entangled with us. They will only divide our army. However, we must be cautious when sending reinforcements. , These Huns have indeed become different..." Zhao Yun looked at Li Dian and directly issued the corresponding military order.
When the Han Dynasty was fighting with foreign countries, especially when fighting with the Huns, how could they not save them when they received a distress message from their friends?
Even if it is the enemy who killed his father, he must be rescued first, and then we can discuss the issue of their respective grudges.
"Wei!" After receiving the order, Li Dian immediately turned around and left, preparing to notify Li Tiao and ask Li Tiao to go and rescue people.
Hakuba Yicong is also quite good at rescuing people.
Whether it's the speed of rescuing people or his own combat effectiveness, they are all guaranteed!
Even if you are surrounded by others for reinforcements, your own mobility can ensure that you can leave safely.
And as one of the mobile forces, it also has tasks and requirements in this regard.
...
"Chanyu! By doing this alone, can we really take advantage?" Wuhaci looked at the Xiongnu Chanyu calling Tingchu, and was quite puzzled by such an order.
Can this kind of dispatching of miscreants, dispersing guerrillas, attacking the Great Wall and border gates, and plundering the Han Dynasty's northern territory really affect the situation between the two sides?
This is what the grassland peoples did in the past, but for the Han Dynasty, this kind of behavior was simply dispensable.
If they really can't bear it any longer, they will send troops northward to clear them out, and then things will return to normal!
Under this situation, Wuhachi did not think that their situation could change the situation between the two parties.
However, this kind of plundering of the Han Dynasty seems to restore the glory of the past.
"Some plundering behavior is nothing more than a drop in the bucket for the Han Dynasty. It is impossible to rely on this kind of behavior to influence the Han Dynasty and change the direction of the war between the two sides..." Hu Tingchu stared at the south with a look on his face. Calm and not shaken by external objects.
"If that's the case, then why do you still do this? It's not just to reduce food consumption, but it shouldn't be..." Wuhachi said with confusion in his tone, rather heavy.
Hu Tingchu glanced at Wuhachi in surprise, and then nodded.
"How is this possible? We still have so much food, cattle, horses and sheep. Is it necessary to use this method to weaken our population and hinder our development?" Wuhachi's tone instantly changed to shock and panic, and he said in disbelief. .
How could they, who have always been short of population, use this method to hinder the development of population.
"It is not to weaken our population, but to weaken the number of barbarians..." Hu Tingchu looked at Wuhachi's appearance, thought for a while, and then told his plan.
There are actually many old, weak, sick and disabled people on the grassland, as well as various barbarians and women.
Through a heavy snowfall, we directly eliminated the old, sick and disabled, and then collected them, defeated the large tribes among them, and then collected them.
As a result, the population of the Xiongnu tribe expanded significantly in a short period of time, and most of the expanded population was available labor force. Whether they are young men with mixed beards or strong women from various tribes, they are all targets that can be exploited.
As for whether there is hatred, don't worry about it at all.
In this regard, the grasslands where the weak are preying on the strong have already had relevant awareness.
Survival is the most important thing for a tribe. As for how to survive, that is another matter.
Hu Tingchu was extremely familiar with such grassland rules.
Coupled with the timing of the attack, he can guarantee that although the vast majority of captives and slaves will not be loyal to him, they will not turn swords on each other.
Only after reaching this level can he dare to use these people and treat these people as real objects for entertainment and use.
The young adults among the miscellaneous people can become consumables, or they can be used as auxiliary miscellaneous soldiers to handle some chores, liberating the population of the tribe, so that the population of the tribe can engage in better things.
Either increase the army of the own population and increase military strength, or free up the time of the own population to reproduce offspring and increase the number of tribes.
In this process, the biggest role played by the captured strong women is to increase the population of the Huns, multiply and please everyone...
However, this expansion of population size is extremely problematic. Except for newborn babies, the newly added population, whether male or female, does not have any identification with the Xiongnu nation at all, and they simply obey the strong.
On this point, Hu Tingchu knew it very well.
It is precisely because of this that we face an even larger number of young and middle-aged adults.
The method Hu Tingchu thought of was very direct. Let these people divide their troops into multiple routes and go south directly as usual. If they succeeded, they would rob the supplies.
If it fails, it will just weaken the population of Zahu, further liberate the other part, and strengthen their control over Zahu.
"Is this the only thing we can do in the end?" Wuhachi thought about those miscellaneous things, and felt a little sad in his heart.
As people get older, the things they think about become more sad.
"There are too many miscreants. Even if the ratio is 1:4, there are still excess. If the ratio is higher than this, it is easy to lose control. Instead of waiting for turmoil, it is better to use absolute iron and blood from the beginning. Means to ensure the reproduction and expansion of the population..." Hu Tingchu said a fact calmly.
Although he really wanted to say that there are either Han or Hu under the sky, but for these bastards who have had their backbones knocked off, this kind of slogan will only make them more afraid.
The Han Empire used its actions and force to directly break the backbones of the surrounding foreign races.
This is also the reason why Hu Tingchu chose to change after careful observation.
"After reducing the population through large-scale death, we will lead them to defeat the Han army, liberate the ideological constraints in their minds, and then in the process, let these people recognize our national ideals, such a set of processes By walking down, the population will at least double..." Hu Tingchu said very seriously with his eyes twinkling.
At that time, they can leave, and then wait another thirty years, and then their number will double or triple, and then they can come back.
