The first thousand and forty-ninth section of the conspiracy of the Huns
The Huns fled.
Like a bereaved dog, it tucks its tail between its legs and runs away in despair.
They left at least five hundred corpses in front of the Han army's formation.
Among them, about 1,670 people died in the rain of arrows from the Han army.
The dense arrows covered an area that was almost a hundred steps by a hundred steps.
There are no living creatures in this area.
On average, each Huns had at least ten arrows inserted into them.
The Han army’s crossbows were not soft toys!
The strong kinetic energy caused the arrows to penetrate the bodies of these Huns cavalry, and some arrows even penetrated deep into the muscles and bones.
However, this place, which was destined to be the focus in the past, is now forgotten.
The focus and attention of both the Han and Hungarian armies were concentrated in front of the Han army's Modao army formation.
Zhidu rode his horse and passed through this battlefield not long ago.
There were broken limbs and broken bodies everywhere on the ground.
One unlucky guy even had his head cut into three halves. Who knows how he did it!
But what's even worse are those who were cut in half.
For example, the unlucky guy in front of Zhidu.
His face was ferocious and painful, his eyes were wide open, and the muscles on his face were still as they were before death and were all twisted into a ball!
You can imagine how much pain he suffered before he died!
When his body was cut off by the Han army's Mo Dao, he survived for about a third of a moment.
But, there is nothing more painful than this.
Everyone knows that such pain is very cruel to an individual.
As a Legalist minister, he once oversaw the execution of criminals who were sentenced to be chopped in half.
He had seen people who had their bodies cut off and watched helplessly as their intestines and internal organs flowed out, while their hands continued to struggle and suffer.
That's a terrible scene!
It even gave Zhi nightmares.
But here, at least a hundred corpses were cut in half.
The sharp Mo Dao cut them into two pieces with almost no effort.
Many people who did not die immediately suffered the most severe punishment in the world.
Some people even pinched their throats deeply with their hands before swallowing in pain.
"The legendary hell is probably nothing more than this..." Zhi Du sighed in his heart.
But he is not a Confucian scholar, and he does not have the so-called idea of "a gentleman staying far away from the cook".
To him, the fresh ideas of the Confucian scholars were simply childish to this day.
Everyone is away from the kitchen, who is going to do the dirty work?
This is one of the reasons why legalists today look down upon Confucianism.
Those guys are shouting about Zhou Gong and Zhou Gong all day long, repeating the methods of the previous kings.
But their behavior ran counter to the teachings of the late king and Duke Zhou.
In Zhidu's eyes, they are just a group of scum who neither want to do things nor want others to do things, but only hope for pie in the sky.
The ancient kings fought hard and overcame thorns and thorns to leave behind this great country and the civilization of the Xia Dynasty.
It is not used to corrupt Confucian scholars!
Therefore, Zhidu was actually the leader within Legalism who opposed the integration of Confucianism and Legalism.
Just like within Confucianism, there are those who oppose the integration of Confucianism and Legalism.
While Confucianism and Legalism are now moving closer to each other, some internal factions and giants are also looking for ways to get rid of each other quickly.
Zhidu reined in his horse and looked at the Modao army camp not far away.
"Send someone to take thirty sheep and three cows to Mo Dao's army and kill them to give the soldiers extra food!" Zhidu ordered to his left and right with a malicious tone.
The new recruits were actually frightened by themselves just now.
When the Huns retreated, many of them fell to the ground and vomited.
After all, not just anyone can hold a long knife and cut a human in half while still talking and laughing as if no one else is watching.
In particular, these recruits basically come from Qilu, Huaisi and Fengpei.
There may be people who have never killed a chicken before today.
But now, he is holding a sharp knife and chopping alive people.
Zhidu's move, to some extent, is tantamount to adding fuel to the fire.
But, this is not the future.
There are no human rights to speak of, and no mental illness to speak of.
For generals, it is a good thing when their soldiers see blood.
Even if some cowards are so scared that they collapse, that's still a good thing.
Lest he go to the battlefield and harm others and himself.
After ordering this matter, Zhi Du took a telescope and looked into the distance.
"Huns, do you still have the guts to make an enemy of my master?" Zhi Du sneered in his heart.
In that battle just now, only five hundred people were beheaded.
However, the significance is significant.
This battle proved that the Han army could face the Huns head-on, and it also proved that the Han army could fight the Huns.
This further severely dampened the morale of the Huns.
The Han army, with only two thousand Mo Dao soldiers, defeated thousands of Xiongnu cavalry, causing them to flee in panic.
Under such circumstances, it is actually impossible for the Huns to attack the Han army today.
They need time to calm the troops and restore morale.
The Han army could seize this opportunity to expand its territory and establish camps and defense lines.
Zhidu even ordered the Han army's scouts to let go of their hands and take the initiative to move closer to the Xiongnu's banner.
Anyway, the Han army's cavalry had higher mobility and speed than the Huns.
In addition, the morale of the Huns has plummeted.
As the saying goes, take advantage of his illness to kill him, so Zhidu naturally took advantage of this.
only……
"It's a pity that I don't have enough troops, otherwise..." A trace of ridicule flashed at the corner of Zhidu's mouth.
If he had 40,000 troops under his command, he would definitely be leading the army to attack the Xiongnu headquarters at this moment. He would seize this great opportunity and scatter them in one fell swoop!
Even if there is an army of 20,000, the Huns cavalry just wanted to escape? It is impossible!
He could send out a group of cavalry to pursue them and bite off a piece of meat.
It's a pity that he only has fifteen thousand people!
The only option was to take advantage of the Xiongnu's sharp decline in morale to expand their territory and build fortifications at the same time.
………
Huyan Dangtu looked at the Qiulin family's large and small Qushuai and nobles who were kneeling in front of him.
His hand was held tightly!
"The great Xiongnu has lost all his face!" Hu Yandang Tu Tie's face was livid and he roared: "You are five thousand people, five thousand people!"
"Your military strength is more than twice that of the Han Dynasty!"
"But you were as scared as mice by the Han Dynasty people!" Hu Yan kicked Qiu Lin Diao Nan with a murderous kick: "Get out!"
The nobles of the Qiulin clan quickly left with their heads in arms as if they had been granted amnesty.
Seeing these idiots disappear from his sight, Huyan Dangtu stamped his feet.
He wasn't angry at these idiots for running away.
He had witnessed the entire battle just now.
The weird military formation of the Han Dynasty was simply unheard of and unseen.
The collapse and escape of the Qiulin clan was also expected by him.
He was angry because these guys didn't follow his orders at all.
What should I say before letting them go?
"Kill a few rounds, don't go too deep, try the depth of the Han Dynasty..."
But how do these guys do it?
He ran into an array of Han troops who were waiting to attack, and was killed by them. Finally, with his tail between his legs, he ran for his life in disgrace in front of the tribal leaders.
In the process of escaping, they even trampled on each other and killed dozens of cavalry!
If possible, Huyan Dangtu would really like to rip off the heads of these scum and stuff them into their butts!
Well now, the Qiulin clan of the Xiongnu headquarters collapsed in front of a Han army without even holding on for a moment.
They also showed their ugly appearance to the tribes.
Huyan Dangtu could even imagine that tonight, there might be some restless guys who would quietly go to the Han Dynasty military camp to make themselves familiar.
This has also been the norm on the grasslands for thousands of years.
As long as there is someone or power, it shows his power and strength.
Then, naturally there will be wallflowers rushing to your door.
At that time, the Xiongnu and Donghu were fighting in Munan.
At the foot of Junji Mountain, Maodun Shanyu personally led his troops of ten thousand cavalry to rush into the Donghu formation.
Then, that night, Tu Ge Ren and Hun Xie quietly came to the door and offered their loyalty to Maodun Shanyu.
It was the defection of these outlaws that caused the Donghu people to finally collapse and flee thousands of miles away.
Today, more than eighty years later, it is inevitable for these scumbags to repeat the stories of their ancestors!
Anyway, for them, the Huns are the bosses, and the Han people are the bosses.
Who should take it seriously?
Fortunately, he still has strong troops!
There are six headquarters with thousands of horses, which is enough to prevent any conspiracy from being implemented.
Moreover, the number of Han troops on the opposite side was also very small, only more than 10,000 and no more than 20,000.
Otherwise, these guys might really betray you!
only……
Huyan Dangtu stared at the Han army camp in the distance.
He knew that at this moment the Han Dynasty people must have begun to use their racial talents to dig ditches and build forts.
In Pingcheng, at the foot of Baishan Mountain, the Han Dynasty only spent one day to build dense camps and trenches on and at the foot of Baishan Mountain.
Even Mao Dun, the great Chanyu, had no choice but to speak.
In the end we have no choice but to withdraw our troops!
Nearly thirty years ago, in Yunzhong, Guan Ying, the prime minister of the Han Dynasty, built a camp three feet high overnight, so that the Huns cavalry could only walk away in silence.
Now, the Han Dynasty people will definitely perform that miracle again.
At the latest, the day after tomorrow, he will face a Han army camp with a defensive system and depth.
A frontal attack is almost impossible to win.
Even if we take it down, we will probably have to spend at least four to five thousand horses.
Once too many troops are lost here.
Huyan Dangtu knew that he would never be able to defend Gaoque.
In fact, not only Gaoque will be occupied by the Han army coming from the front, but even Yinshan Mountain may also fall into the hands of the Han army.
Lost Gaoque, and then lost Yinshan.
Hexi will also be occupied by the Han within a year.
Gaoque is the strongest fortress of the Xiongnu Empire, Yinshan Mountain is the mother mountain of the Xiongnu, and Hexi is the source of the Xiongnu's strength.
If these places were lost, the Huns would probably lose all of Munan.
Such a result is something Huyan Dangtu is absolutely unwilling to face.
But if we withdraw our troops...
Haha, don’t say whether the tribes will let him go!
Even he himself can't forgive himself!
Encountering a strong army of the Han Dynasty, they withdrew their troops after engaging in battle.
The Xiongnu cavalry will never be able to raise their heads in front of the Han army, let alone fight head-on with the Han army.
The pride of the Huns and the dignity of the Huns will be trampled into the mud and turned into flesh!
However, if it is a forceful attack...
"The price is too high..." Huyan Dangtu looked at the Han army camp in the distance. He knew that it would take a long time to capture a Han army camp with more than 10,000 to nearly 20,000 people in front of the fortifications and defense system.
At what price.
What's more, the Han army just now made him understand that this army is not easy to mess with!
It's a hedgehog covered with spikes!
If you want to eat it, you must at least be prepared to break a tooth!
"Perhaps, I can try to surround them, cut off their supplies, starve them to death! freeze them to death!" Huyan Dangtu thought in his heart, and then he smiled.
yes!
You Han Dynasty people are awesome! Amazing!
Isn’t it okay for me to admit it?
But can you not eat or drink?
"With only five thousand cavalry, we can cut off their supply lines, or at least force the Han army to send troops to fight with me!" Huyan Dangtu became more and more excited as he thought about it: "At that time, I will have the final say on the battlefield! I think so.
I will fight wherever I am with you!"
His observation just now made him understand that the infantry of this Han army was probably not good at fighting in narrow terrain.
They are only suitable for expansion in wide areas!
"I can also keep sending people to harass and invade their camps day and night, making them unable to eat and sleep well!" Huyan Dangtu clenched his fists and became happy.
He felt that he had never been so inspired in his life.
As long as the Han army's supply line can be cut off, at least it will force the Han Dynasty to dedicate part of its troops to hide and seek with a small part of its cavalry in the mountains and mountains.
Then, the people of the Han Dynasty will no longer be scary.
Then, he sent people to tightly surround the remaining Han army.
Let them walk towards death step by step in uneasiness and coldness, in fatigue and sleepiness.
Just do it!
Huyan Dangtu immediately called his close confidant Dangtu Qian and told him: "My slave, you immediately lead your troops to set fire to all the mountains and forests here for me!"
In winter, if there is no firewood, it will be very cold at night!
People of the Han Dynasty couldn't carry firewood from the rear to keep warm!
Even if they were willing to transport a cart of firewood from hundreds or even thousands of miles away, how much would it cost the Han Dynasty people to pay?
He also called the leader of the Luhou tribe, Luhou King Lu Nan, and told him: "I ordered the Luhou tribe to immediately send five thousand riders along the foothills and roads to search for the Han Dynasty.
North Korea’s supply convoys and supply lines, discover one and eliminate the other!”
Among the Xiongnu tribes, the Luhou tribe is the best at fighting in mountains and marching on rugged terrain.
They have been at the foot of Gaolan Mountain and Yanzhi Mountain in Hexi all year round, clearing out and conquering the Qiang people and Xiaoyue clan horse bandits.
Every Luhou person is a natural expert in mountain warfare!
"I want to starve to death, die of thirst, freeze to death, and sleep to death from these damn Han Dynasty people!" Huyan Dangtu said coldly: "I want to let the Han Dynasty people know that the Huns should not be insulted lightly!"
"Yes!" King Lu Hou squatted down and knelt on one knee. (To be continued.)
