Chapter 628 Wuhuan descends

Bailang Mountain is located in the middle of Liucheng and Lulongsai. It used to be basically the only way for Wuhuan to go south. Zhao Yun led 10,000 cavalry after leaving Zhou Yu, and went all the way north to detour here, hiding all the way. They successfully evaded it.

Tadun was unprepared for this.

It was God's blessing that it was summer at this time. If we were to march in such a northern region in autumn and winter, it would be difficult for the Jiangdong Army's physique to adapt.

Zhao Yun led his troops to the place and hid on the spot, while sending spies to patrol the area secretly.

However, the 30,000 Wuhuan cavalry returning north had received news of the crisis in Liucheng at this time, and were marching in a hurry.

At noon that day, the Wuhuan cavalry, which was marching rapidly, finally arrived at Bailang Mountain. After running continuously all morning, they began to slow down their pace after seeing Bailang Mountain, preparing to rest for a while before marching.

These 30,000 Wuhuan cavalry are all the elite of Wuhuan, and their combat power is much stronger than the defenders of Liucheng. When Gongsun Zan recruited more than 30,000 Wuhuan cavalry, he naturally selected the best. Gongsun Zan fought against Wuhuan.

But knowing Wuhuan's situation very well, Tadun couldn't hide it from Gongsun Zan's eyes, so the Wuhuan cavalry sent there were all carefully selected elites. Because of this, Tadun, who was now in Liucheng, had no idea about this situation.

The cavalry attaches great importance to it.

Looking at the Wuhuan cavalry who were cooking in the distance, Zhao Yun, who had always been calm, couldn't help but feel a flash of excitement in his eyes. He didn't expect that the timing was so coincidental. Originally, he just planned to attack suddenly while the opponent was tired from marching, but he didn't expect that the opponent would directly attack them.

Dismount here to rest.

How could Zhao Yun miss such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity? He immediately organized his army into a wild goose formation and rode out to fight.

After the unsuspecting Wuhuan cavalry discovered that the cavalry led by Zhao Yun was charging, it was already too late. Ten thousand Jiangdong cavalry who were ready rushed straight at them, giving them no chance to reorganize their troops.

With just one charge, Zhao Yun easily cut through the chaos of the Wuhuan cavalry and completely disrupted the Wuhuan cavalry. The Wuhuan cavalry, which had no fighting spirit, had already formed a group in panic, and many soldiers scattered and fled.

Seeing this, Zhao Yun led his army in units of Qu, and the captains led them to spread out to fight and chase the enemy. Sun Ce also showed great bravery in the melee. One man, one horse and one spear, in front of the large army.

He was rushing around to kill, constantly provoking Wuhuan's leaders and generals to pursue him.

In the end, it took a full three hours for the battle to finally come to an end. A total of 30,000 Wuhuan cavalry were wiped out, more than 8,000 of which escaped, and the rest were all reduced to prisoners.

"This killing was really fun." Sun Ce, who was covered in blood, said extremely excitedly, regardless of his physical fatigue.

But Zhao Yun was still wearing a white robe, not stained by blood at all, showing his elegant style. No one could have imagined that the number of enemy soldiers he picked and killed in this battle was no less than the former.

"In this battle, we took a trick. Not only were we waiting for work, but the opponent dismounted and rested, so he was completely unprepared." Zhao Yun flicked the gentian gun in his hand, and all the blood on it spilled, and said lightly.

.

"The fighting power of these Wuhuan people is indeed not very good, much worse than that of our Han people." Sun Ce said disdainfully, placing the head tied to the horse on the ground.

Zhao Yun glanced at it, and his soldiers immediately understood, took out the box, wrapped the head that Sun Ce threw on the ground in cloth and put it in the box.

"Wuhuan's weapons are backward, they have no military formations, and their battles are sloppy. This is normal. If it were Han cavalry, we probably wouldn't be able to fight back even if we suddenly attacked." Zhao Yun nodded lightly and said: "Bo Fu,

This time you captured the enemy chief, so you deserve the first victory. With this victory, you will be able to command an army by yourself."

"Really?" Sun Ce said excitedly, "That's great. From now on, I can be on an equal footing with you and Gong Jin."

Zhao Yun shook his head slightly and said: "It's okay to be on an equal footing with me, but I'm still a little behind Gong Jin. After Wuhuan is pacified, Gong Jin will also be promoted."

"Gong Jin has also been promoted, but Liaodong only has 50,000 troops now! Could it be that General Wenyuan wants to be transferred?" Sun Ce asked confused.

"General Wenyuan is indeed going to be transferred, but Gong Jin is also going to be transferred."

"Gong Jin also wants to be transferred away? Where?" Sun Ce frowned.

"Navy, my lord is planning to build a new navy with 30,000 soldiers, and Gong Jin will be in charge. After Wuhuan is pacified this time, Gong Jin will go to Jinling to take up his post."

Sun Ce fell into silence after hearing this.

Zhao Yun, however, was still minding his own business and said: "When Gong Jin fell, he had to train his navy in the Yangtze River for about half a year, and then go to the South China Sea to prepare with General Cai Hao to deal with the southwest countries and the Kushan Empire that he would face in the future. And Wenyuan

The general will be transferred to Yuzhou to prepare for the subsequent attack on the Central Plains."

"Then who will be in charge of Liaodong in the future?"

"You, me, General Cao Xing, Mr. Shi Yuan. In addition, your Majesty will also call in some generals in the future." Zhao Yun said calmly.

"Hey, that means no one will restrain me if I lead troops in the future, right?" Sun Ce said with a gleam in his eyes.

Zhao Yun's eyes twitched slightly, and he sighed softly and said: "That's true. But without Gong Jin's protection, you have to be more calm when leading troops in the future, and don't take too many risks."

Thinking about the people he worked with, Zhao Yun felt a little helpless. The military advisor Yuan Shu arranged for him, Pang Tong, was a bad guy, and Sun Ce was a lawless master, leaving only Cao Xing and a seriously partial person.

...

Three days later, a box and a letter were sent to Liucheng.

When Tadun opened the box and saw the head of the reinforcements commander he expected, he almost fainted. Then he opened the letter Zhou Yu wrote to him angrily, and his face gradually turned pale. Finally, he felt panic and despair in his heart.

He looked at the many leaders in the hall, with a bitter look on his lips, and sighed softly: "Thirty thousand elites have been wiped out, and a certain person plans to surrender to the Chu army."

"Chanyu, no! We still have a chance. As long as we retreat westward, the Chu army can't do anything to us. Besides, there are still 20,000 elite troops in the direction of Changli, so we may not lose." Wu Yan said with great reluctance.

Tadun glanced at the letter in his hand with a wry smile, and said feebly: "There are ten thousand Chu army cavalry near Liucheng, and nearly ten thousand Chu army cavalry on the west side, and under Lincheng, there are ten thousand Chu army infantry and cavalry.

If we hold on tightly, we can't win this battle, and we can't run away. If we continue like this, by the time the Chu army withdraws, we, Wuhuan, may be almost doomed."

"Then there is Yuan Shao! Let him send troops to help!" Su Puyan said hastily.

"Yuan Shao is so far away from us, and Gongsun Zan is in the middle. How can we come to our aid in a short time? You don't have to think about it anymore. Now we Wuhuan have no other choice but to surrender." Tadun sighed softly.
