Chapter 233 Still have to fight (I wish all my book friends a Happy New Year)
In terms of the total strength of this group, there are more than 4,600 Huns cavalry. Naturally, they will not emerge from the ground.
In fact, it was just the troops sent by the current Xiongnu King Punu Chanyu more than a month ago; after a long journey, they finally arrived at the Khotan Kingdom.
The specific composition included one thousand elite cavalrymen from the Golden Horde of Punu Chanyu.
The Aries King, Zhelan King, Fuli King, and Luhu King under Minmin Te Danghu led hundreds of cavalry respectively, totaling more than 4,600 people.
Zha'ernen, the Huns' captain of ten thousand men, served as the supreme commander of this team.
Along the way, especially after entering the Western Region, they, like Yang Dongli and others, all adopted the method of marching in hiding.
The only difference is that the visitors from modern dimensions such as Lao Yang along the way are still not as ruthless as the Huns; only horse bandits and sand bandits will be killed directly if they encounter them.
If they encounter a herdsman, they will just arrest them and move with the army to avoid leaking the news.
In the past few days, their movements have only been restricted, and the few cattle and sheep they depended on for survival have not been taken away. Even food is provided by the army.
After receiving the beacon summons just now, they even released these herdsmen.
But the Huns had a completely different approach. Since entering the Western Regions, they would stay far away except for some cities.
The important thing is that you must get the statue that Sirius God left behind in the world.
This is still worried that if the 1,200 war slaves are released rashly to search for the Huns envoys, some of them may take the opportunity to escape.
Yang Dongli, Fengrui and others made a careful count and found that there were only about a hundred people. They didn't know whether they were too late to come back, or they ran away early and didn't come back.
Fortunately, just as Hu Biao and others did not know the existence of these Huns troops beforehand, they also knew nothing about the existence of the bald and miscellaneous army of thieves under Yang Dongli.
And in such a process, the cannon fodder of the barbarians from the small tribes who were dispersed to the surrounding areas continued to return to the area where Yang Dongli was located.
Not only did he organize his weapons and armor, he also placed the weapons where they were most convenient, so that he would not let anything go wrong in the fatal battle that was waiting for him.
Because as long as he joined the army, he would not only be able to survive, but he could also easily reverse the originally bad situation.
Because in the view of the Huns, only after the Sirius god left part of his soul in the world could such a magical treasure be condensed.
Looking over from a distance, he saw that the Huns' central army was very elite, and the troops on both wings seemed to be much stronger than the cannon fodder under his command.
2,900 versus 4,600, a gap of 1,700 in strength.
In this way, the armies of both sides stopped and faced each other at a distance of about five or six miles.
It doesn't matter if you don't have enough to eat, these war horses can't go hungry.
Fortunately, he finally met the vanguard of his own army at the moment when his horses were running to death; after he was safe, the first thought in Kebi Ya's mind was not revenge.
In short, after some cursory observation.
The barbarians I met along the way didn't care who you were or what country you belonged to. They all killed them all and used their cattle and sheep as military rations.
Therefore, even though Yang Dongli led more than 1,300 people behind him, when he passed the method of observing the army and vaguely estimated that the Huns army in front of him was at least 4,000 in number, he was still panicking in his heart.
Therefore, after hurriedly explaining the importance of the glass wolf handicraft to the leader Zhaernen Wanfu.
After such a process, about half an hour later, no one would come back.
Zarnen also understood one thing: it was no longer important whether he could kill the envoys of the Han Dynasty this time, destroy the Shanshan Kingdom and restore the reputation of the Huns in the Western Regions.
Even the importance of this treasure is far greater than the revenge of killing Ban Chao and the annihilation of Shanshan Kingdom.
As Hu Biao and others expected, these Huns, who used the wolf as their totem, simply could not refuse such a treasure.
Although the Huns' army has only arrived here now.
Regarding these strange opponents that suddenly appeared, I was also very confused for a while, and immediately blew the horn to stop the entire army's advance.
Yang Dongli could find that the enemy's elite Huns were more than three times their strength, so this battle was very difficult to fight.
When he saw the size of the Huns' army, poor Comrade Yang almost pissed himself with fear.
Instead, he led his army to fight back and snatched the glass handicraft from Ban Chao.
For a time, almost everyone on both sides jumped off their horses.
As for whether they can be gathered together in time, will those fishing guys run away immediately when they see the momentum of the Huns?
Frankly speaking, Yang Dongli didn't know very well. He could only hope that the situation would not be too bad...
When the two sides collide violently, it will definitely be very exciting.
Therefore, during the previous attack by Khotan's soldiers, Kobi Ya saw that the situation was very bad.
After making up their mind, the two men led the army and rushed back to fight.
Anyway, the two of them are the sinners of the Huns. Being put in a bag and trampled to death by horses is the best outcome.
However, the news of their arrival was sent by a small number of people on fast horses and was notified in advance to the unrestrained envoy of the Huns, Kobi Ya, who was stationed in Khotan.
With a look of panic on his face, he joined the army.
Let the several messengers around you blow the horns to an earth-shattering sound, and let the cannon fodder who were scattered before gather together quickly, so as not to be defeated one by one.
We can only order the entire army to stop advancing and prepare for battle.
It’s not that there’s no fight, but that the horses on both sides are already quite weak after running for a long time. Before the battle, the horses must be allowed to slow down and regain their horsepower.
In the first moment, he risked his life to fight his way out to join his own army.
It can be said that the journey they took was filled with rich blood.
Otherwise, the number of people around him can only be smaller now.
He even took out handfuls of beans, wheat grains and other fine horse feed from the bag, and fed them together with the water in the water bag.
It was after seeing this large number of people that Ban Chao, Hu Biao and the others were a little surprised as to how Yang Dongli and the others had attracted so many people.
I am afraid that only a few small countries in the Western Regions united can have the strength to compete.
Anyway, the purpose is to make the best use of your war horse in the upcoming battle.
The 4,600-strong Huns army, including even a thousand-man Golden Tent team, could be considered a terrifying force in the Western Regions.
To defeat them, more small countries need to unite.
****
This is indeed the case. After Hu Biao and others fled twenty miles without their lives, the army led by Lao Yang and others finally appeared.
But more importantly, after seeing so many soldiers and horses, and some of them well-equipped, they felt that they were capable again.
When on the way, I suddenly saw the traces of Ban Chao and others, I was even more excited as if I had seen a wild dog like Xiang, and chased after them desperately.
Now he only has 118 trusted native subordinates and more than 1,200 war slaves.
As long as he can get it and successfully bring it back to the Golden Tent, he and Kebi Ya will never have to worry about their prosperity for the rest of their lives.
But just these men and horses who returned have brought their current total strength to about 2,900.
Fortunately, the Huns' leader Zha'ernen and the envoy Kebi Ya were in high spirits when they suddenly saw the sudden appearance of the army.
The main reason was that all the cannon fodder of more than 1,600 people in his army were placed around him at this moment.
Except for a small number of personnel, the Huns were obviously more elite.
Although our side has many disadvantages, it is not without any advantages. For example, in terms of equipment and tactics, it is obviously much better than these Huns.
Damn it! After all the above thoughts flashed through their minds, Hu Biao and the others cheered up again: They may not necessarily lose this battle, they still have to fight...
PS: In the new year, I wish all book friends good health, a brilliant career, and family peace and happiness...
