war against Hsiung-nu(匈奴)


Recommended Posts

Posted

The Hsiung-nu was the biggest trouble in Han Dynasty. they have neither towns nor caches of supplies;they are nomads who mve about in all directions. they are difficult to overtake and difficult to hold in obedience. If you send light forces, they will easily penetrate this region, but they will die of hunger there. If you send wll-supplied troops, they will be unable to move ahead or to purse the tribes in their maneuvers in the desert. Even if you were to conquer this region, it would avail you nothing, because you would never force these people to stay in fixed habitations.

does anybody have more resources?
