Chapter 831 Fufa
After entering late April, battle reports from the east came one after another.
Same as last year, the Wang family in Guangning was unlucky in the battle with the thieves.
The Changsun tribe completely retreated into Changshan.
The Dugu tribe rushed to Pingshu.
Chen Yougen sent Lan Wu, the general of Yijing Town, to fight with him, but he was also defeated.
Shao Xun listened to Chen Yougen's idea and did not interfere.
The middle and west roads also stood still.
On the last day of April, he continued to sit in the manor to review official letters, and by the way, he met with the imperial physician Ling Huangfu who was introduced by Liang Fen, the Minister of Civil Affairs, to return.
The Huangfu family and the Liang family are basically related to each other.
Liang Liu was the son of Huangfu Mi's aunt, Huangfu Fanghui's father.
Liang Fen’s wife was also born in the Huangfu family.
The relationship between the two families is really inseparable.
Huangfu Fanghui came back from Jingzhou. After hearing that Shao Xun compiled a book called "Endemic Diseases", he happily took up the post of imperial physician and included some of the diseases he discovered.
Shao Xun rummaged through the pages and found that Huangfu Fanghui had listed a separate item for Jingzhou, and the first item recorded under the item was "Water Poison Disease."
After reading the symptoms carefully, isn’t this schistosomiasis!
Huangfu Fanghui believed that there were "gu insects" in the water, which multiplied in large numbers after entering the human body. "Insects eat the five internal organs", making the sick people as thin as wood and with bloated abdomen.
He even speculated that Cao Cao had a major epidemic in his southern expedition because of water bug disease.
The writing is quite detailed!
Shao Xun is not very clear about other diseases, but he knows a lot about schistosomiasis. After all, it was vigorously publicized by later generations.
He thought for a while, could this disease be cured at this time? Sadly, you can't.
Can it be defended? It’s also difficult, I can only say it’s better than nothing.
Before sending Huangfu away, he drew a Hubei snail on a piece of paper and ordered to kill it - in fact, he just wanted to have peace of mind, which was impossible to do.
But does this have no effect at all? Not necessarily.
Let people realize that the intermediate host is also valuable. Maybe some people have escaped. Unfortunately, most people in the world probably don’t believe him and think he is nonsense.
Huangfu Fang went back to write the customs under "Bingzhou Catalogue", while Shao Xun continued to review.
The Shaofu Supervisor Yu Zhi reported on the progress of the ink used for woodblock printing: Unfortunately, the progress is limited.
Shao Xun has no choice because he doesn’t know the formula either.
This kind of ancient technological innovation sometimes takes decades, hundreds or even hundreds of years to bear fruit.
Investing a lot of manpower and material resources to express the attention of superiors only shortens the process. If you really want to achieve results, you need a little luck, because this is a trial and error process.
The crux is in the ink, so get on with it.
The third copy was sent by Guang Chengze.
They have bred a kind of draft horse that is strong and docile. They say they can try horse plowing.
This made Shao Xun silent for a long time.
In fact, the manorial economy is more suitable for horse farming, but the small farmer economy is not so good.
He remembered that in later generations there was a lot of horse farming in the Northeast.
To put it simply, as far as the north is concerned, horses plow quickly and can plow more land in a unit of time (such as during farm time), but the plowing is shallow.
Oxen plowing speed is slow, plowing less per unit time, but plowing deeply.
When there are fewer people and more land, extensive planting can be done in a large area. Extensive planting and low harvest are more profitable than intensive farming. Horse farming is suitable.
When there are many people and little land, intensive farming is necessary, and cattle farming is suitable.
Ma Geng pursues per capita output value and low yield per mu.
Niufeng pursues yield per mu, and the per capita output value is low.
Would you like to try it? Shao Xun was hesitant and finally decided to set up a pilot project.
******
After reviewing the official letter, he waited for news from the east.
At the same time, he issued the first order, and Dong Wu led 3,000 "blind men" to go northward and enter Xinxing.
On the Daijun side, Chen Yougen actually had no control over which direction the enemy came from. In fact, he cast the net several times and finally closed it in a place he didn't expect.
On the tenth day of May, the Qiyi River Valley was extremely peaceful.
Chen Yougen climbed the high slope for the last time to explore the terrain.
Pingshu County stands far in the north.
Several miles south of the city, there are many springs and crisscrossing streams, which eventually merge into the Qiyi River.
Most of the streams run from north to south, and some even go around the city. In May, the water in the streams swells and flows endlessly. Occasionally there are shoals dotted there, for people and horses to ford.
The deputy governor of the Luoyan Army arrived at the training camp and led 600 infantrymen to camp in the woods behind a stream in the east, waiting quietly.
Two or three miles behind them, there were more than 3,000 Wei's infantry and cavalry.
Behind a hill a few miles southeast of the front, the main cavalry of the Luoyan Army was resting.
In the city due north, the streets are almost filled with cavalry. These are the 1,500 cavalry brought by Liu Hezhu - there is no way, the city is not big, and we have tried every means, but we can only cram so many people into it. .
The other 1,500 riders were stationed in a forest in the northeast.
To put it simply, Chen Yougen planned to attract the enemy to this preset battlefield, then intercept them head-on, and attack from both sides to annihilate this enemy force in one fell swoop and boost their morale.
The only difficulty with this plan is whether it can withstand it from the front.
At this time, Chen Yougen especially hoped that the Youzhou Cavalry Governor would be here. Unfortunately, the King of Liang transferred them to Hongnong and provided assistance to Hedong at any time. It was impossible for him to come here in a short time.
The dull sound of horse hooves sounded in the east.
Chen Yougen was shocked, and a sickly flush appeared on his face.
He likes this kind of head-on fight with fists and fists so much.
He looked around and saw that there was a big tree on the hillside. He immediately climbed up and took a look. On the eastern horizon, Qian Yuqi appeared in the eyelids.
They looked panicked and embarrassed. As he ran, he looked back in fear.
A bigger cloud of smoke appeared behind them.
The ferocious-looking Xianbei cavalry followed closely behind, their hooves beating like thunder.
Even during the charge, their formation was still not too loose, and generally still showed an arrow shape.
Xu Shi saw obstacles such as streams and woods ahead, and the Xianbei people's formation changed: the cavalry on both wings began to increase their horse speed and move forward, one from the south and one from the north, trying to encircle these more than a thousand people. Riding completely annihilated.
They had won so many battles that they looked down upon the Wuhuan people and charged in without any scruples.
Even during the charge, one of the leading generals looked at Pingshu County in the distance and saw that the flag was crooked at the top of the city, and the people were stumbling and running away. After that, they laughed and were extremely arrogant.
"Crash!" The fleeing Wuhuan cavalry rushed to a ford after paying the price of more than a hundred casualties.
Someone actually thoughtfully put up a small flag in the shoal, as if they were afraid that others would not know that one could cross the river here.
Countless horse legs stepped into the river water in an instant, causing huge splashes of water. At the same time, people screamed and the horses neighed, and it was extremely chaotic.
Chen Yougen waited quietly on the hillside.
More than 500 Wuhuan cavalrymen who had escaped back had come ashore and ran to the west side of the creek. There were about a hundred cavalrymen in the middle of the river, and about 400 more cavalrymen on the other side.
Seeing that it was too late to cross the river, they abandoned their horses in despair and waded directly across the river.
Suddenly there were cries and stumbling figures everywhere.
"Whoosh! Whoosh!" Countless arrows fell after themselves. The five or six hundred horsemen who had crossed the river dispersed and disappeared on the grassland to the west. Dozens of people who were crossing the river screamed miserably. They fell to the ground, and those who abandoned their horses to cross the river also suffered casualties.
The frothy turbid water and the bright red blood were mixed together, mixed with the cries of pain, cries and even begging for mercy, playing a cruel music of death.
The Xianbei people began to cross the river in pursuit.
They are fierce and brave.
After hundreds of cavalry crossed the river, they pursued the fleeing Wuhuan cavalry. Those who were crossing the river looked in the direction of Pingshu County in the distance, seeming to plan to go straight into the city to see if they could scare away the Wuhuan people, and then Go to town and be merry.
"Dong, dong, dong..." Just as the Xianbei people were chasing after them like a rainbow, two thousand cavalry turned out from behind the hills in the southeast.
They had excellent riding skills and steadily controlled the speed of their horses. The cavalry archers spread out to the two wings. The horsemen and cavalry came out in greater numbers and charged towards the Xianbei cavalry who were squeezing toward the river bank.
"Dong dong dong..." Almost at the same time, 1,500 Jieqi rushed out of the woods in the northeast. With lightning speed, they rushed into the river bank from the side and behind. Among the wandering Xianbei cavalry.
The charge of the two ambushes greatly exceeded the Xianbei people's expectations.
The river bank was already crowded, and they lost speed. They were attacked from behind, and they exploded.
Looking down from a high place, more than 3,000 Xianbei cavalry were cut into several sections on the spot. How many of them fell off their horses or fell into the water?
The general leading the team was furious. He asked people to wave flags and shouted loudly, but it was so chaotic that not many people obeyed in a hurry.
"Dong dong dong..." The drum sounded for the third time.
"Kill the thief!" Daoxun jumped up and rushed out of the forest with 600 soldiers. First, he fired with bows and crossbows, knocking down a large area of the Xianbei cavalry who had just crossed the river to the ground.
These Xianbei people already knew the news about the ambush on the east bank of the river, and they were already extremely panicked. But now they were suddenly attacked again. While they were frightened and angry, their will to fight was also greatly shaken.
Without much hesitation, they made the choice to flee westward.
Daoxun ignored them and rushed to the ford across the river with 600 infantry.
The bows and arrows flew out intensively, causing some of the Xianbei cavalrymen who were crossing the river to flip over. After they fell to the ground, they blocked the path of the subsequent cavalry.
Upon arrival, he was in high spirits and led 600 people to shoot arrows across the river, blocking the Xianbei people's subsequent attempts to cross the river.
"Zhiqua!" At this time, the south gate of Pingshu County opened, and 1,500 Jie cavalry filed out. After a brief formation, they galloped southward.
Looking down from the air, the entire battlefield has been divided into three sections.
The first section is located in the far west.
The Xianbei cavalry who successfully crossed the river in the first stage continued to pursue, with high morale and no idea what was happening behind them, until they met a second group of hundreds of people who successfully crossed the river.
This enemy force totals about a thousand riders.
In front of them, Wei Xiong was waiting with a thousand infantry, and the road was full of antlers and anti-horse guns.
Two thousand Qingqi are slowly moving forward, planning to fight to the death with the Xianbei people.
Liu Hezhu personally led thousands of cavalry to come from behind, intending to attack Wei Xiong front and back.
The second paragraph is in the middle.
The deputy governor of the Luoyan Army came to Xun and led 600 soldiers to confront the enemy cavalry across the river, constantly using powerful bows and crossbows to kill the enemy cavalry.
Another 500 riders from Liu Hezhu's tribe also came slowly, just in case.
Behind them, two thousand men, Shu Dingzhuang, came panting.
The third section is to the east, across the stream.
A total of 3,500 Xianbei cavalry have been scattered and are in complete chaos.
Jie Qi and Luo Yan's army repeatedly charged and killed them. When they saw a large group of enemy cavalry, they dispersed, and when they saw a small group of enemy cavalry, they surrounded and killed them.
The enemy has lost its organizational structure and is completely defeated. Many people have tried to escape and fled in all directions.
When they arrived at the training meeting, they simply led their own soldiers, stepped on the corpses of the Xianbei people, and slowly rushed to the other side of the river. They entered the wall and took advantage of the chaos to attack and kill the Xianbei people who were in chaos.
The entire battlefield was fought in full swing, and the balance of victory in the war was heavily tilted towards the Jin army.
Chen Yougen looked at the overall situation and laughed.
The plan is done!
In today's battle, it is not a problem to behead more than 2,500 Xianbei people. If you are lucky, it is not surprising to behead 3,000 people.
Killing three thousand thieves in one battle, to be honest, has not been done since last winter, and it is still a great morale booster.
My maid! Make you arrogant!
Now he wants to see if the Wuhuan people in Daijun and Guangning will still escape.
"The fight is almost over. I will chop off all the heads in a while, and I will take them to Dai County to give Wang Feng and the others some eyes." Chen Yougen ordered: "And then give them to the old witch Qi's men. Let’s see if you have suffered any loss under me.”
“Yes,” the soldiers responded loudly, with high morale.
