The first thousand two hundred and ninety-nine chapters
Chapter 1,299 Shanyu fled north
This lasted for about half an hour, and the fighting in the city gradually subsided. The enemies in a large area were either dead or surrendered, and all that was left was the finishing work.
"General, captured the chariot king Abdul, do you want to see him?"
Zhang Ge grabbed Abdul and reported to Zhao Yun.
"There's nothing good to see. Lock him up first and then kill him in front of the whole city after dawn."
Hearing that Zhang Ge actually captured the driver king Abdul, Zhao Yun shook his head. There was no need to see him now. Either way, he would die.
"promise."
At dawn the next day, the Yingyang Army cooperated with Alan Shanda to gather the people in the city, and announced Abdul's crime in front of them. Then Alan Shanda personally beheaded him, and then announced
He was appointed as the King of Chariots, and the front and rear charioteers were combined as the King of Chariots.
The very important Cheshi Kingdom in the eastern part of the Western Region was wiped out by Zhao Yun. After becoming King of Cheshi, Alan Shanda swore that the Cheshi Kingdom would submit to China, and then organized the troops and soldiers to be reduced to the Cheshi Army, gathering five thousand soldiers and horses.
Follow the Chinese army to conquer the Western Regions.
The Xiongnu Chanyu Huyandalan fled all the way north, gathering nearly 10,000 Xiongnu cavalry along the way, and finally arrived outside Wubuhou City.
"Open the city gate quickly."
A Hun commander came to the city wall and shouted to the city wall.
"Open the city gate."
The city gate opened instantly, and the Huns immediately began to garrison Wubuhou City without doubting his presence.
"What a shame this time."
The army slowly entered the city, and Huyandalan, who was at the rear of the army, was also depressed. After this defeat, the Huns no longer had the ability to dictate to the Western Regions. If the Chinese really went north, they would have no way out except fleeing.
"Chanyu, the situation in Wubu Houcheng is not right."
Without answering Huyandalan's words, Qiu Linjian looked at the city wall in front of him and couldn't help but frown.
"What's wrong?"
Hearing Qiu Linjian's words, Huyandalan couldn't help but be stunned and didn't understand why he said that.
"I don't know, I just feel something is wrong. The enemy's cavalry is coming from the north. Will they set up an ambush in Wubuhou City?
This shouldn’t be a problem for them.”
Qiu Linjian has been thinking about this problem, that is, since the enemy can appear in his north, where did they come from, and whether there will be problems in Wubuhou City.
"No, there is a scam here. Immediately order the soldiers in the city to withdraw."
Glancing at Qiu Linjian, Huyandalan reacted instantly. The Han people always planned before taking action. Once they started, they would never give themselves a chance. Then there must be something wrong with the Wubu Hou City in front of them.
Hearing Huyandalan's words, the Huns cavalry were also stunned, but immediately obeyed the order and stopped entering the city, and began to retreat outside the city.
"No, the enemy has noticed it. Close the city gate and kill him."
Seeing that the other party was alert, Captain Qi Min immediately ordered the city gates to be closed and the soldiers and horses in the city to be strangled.
"Clang."
With a loud noise, the city gate closed directly, and the soldiers hiding on both sides of the doorway appeared directly, blocking the enemy's retreat. Then the soldiers and horses hidden on the city wall immediately appeared, bent their bows and arrows, and shot at the enemies in the city.
"Quickly retreat."
Seeing the enemy appearing on the city wall, Huyandalan was like a frightened bird. He immediately led 7,000 Huns cavalry and retreated backwards, fearing that the enemy would chase them out of the city.
"Do you want to give chase?"
Watching the enemy retreat, the commander directly clasped his fists and spoke to Qi Min.
"There is no need to pursue them. Our mission is to guard their gateway to the north and not cause any trouble."
Qi Min glanced at the running Hun cavalry and a flash of light flashed in his eyes. He also wanted to pursue him, but he only had 10,000 troops. Even if he fought out, he might not be able to annihilate all the enemies. They might also escape. Instead of getting there like this
It's better to stay here with peace of mind.
Huyandalan led the people and ran away from Wubuhou City. He looked around and a trace of confusion flashed in his eyes.
"What do we do now?
Wubuhou City is blocked, and the passage to the north is gone."
Qiu Linjian glanced at Huyandalan and indicated to him that it was time to decide where to go.
"From Beilu, go around the desert and return to the Xiongnu."
After hearing Qiu Linjian's words, Huyandalan also recovered. After thinking about it, he could only take Beilu and bypass the vast desert to return to the Xiongnu grassland.
"yes."
Qiu Linjian nodded, they could only do this now.
The seven thousand cavalry immediately turned around and ran west towards Beilu.
Although Yan Xing came later, his goal was very clear. In addition, he traveled day and night, so he rushed to Beilu first and joined Du Heng.
"General, why are you here?"
Du Heng's men discovered Yan Xing's presence and immediately came with their cavalry to pay him respects.
"The Huns cavalry has been defeated, and the enemy rushed to Wubuhou City, but they found that it was occupied by us and would definitely divert to Beilu, so I came here to see if there was any trace of the enemy."
Yan Xing glanced at Du Heng and asked him directly if there was anything going on here.
"I sent scouts all over here and found no trace of the enemy at all."
Hearing that the other party had defeated the Huns cavalry, Du Heng also shook his head and said that he had not found any trace of the Huns.
"It's good that we haven't found anything. The army will take a break for the time being. You can continue to search for traces of the enemy."
Yan Xing glanced at the other party and was relieved. He hurriedly hurried slowly because he was afraid that the enemy would evacuate directly from Beilu direction without going to Wubuhou City. Now that he heard that no trace of the other party was found, he knew that he had made the right bet.
"promise."
The cavalry led by Yan Xing immediately began to rest and recuperate. They did not build a camp but found a place to rest and recuperate, waiting for the arrival of the Huns.
Two days passed by, and Huyandalan led the remaining soldiers under his command to the west, and finally arrived at the Beilu area.
"General, the enemy has been spotted seventy miles away."
As soon as the Huns entered the Beilu area, they were spotted by the scouts wandering around. Without any hesitation, they immediately came to report the news to Yan Xing.
"It's finally here. Haha, the whole army is ready. It's time to end the battle. Du Heng, you lead 10,000 troops to the northeast. Zhang Da, you lead 10,000 troops to the southeast. Don't let the other side go."
Yan Xing smiled slightly. After waiting for two days, he finally came. Now that he's here, don't run away.
Nearly 30,000 cavalry were directly divided into three formations and began to kill in the direction of Huyandalan.
"Qiu Linjian, do you think we still have a chance to return to the grassland?"
Huyandalan sat on the horse, his eyes full of exhaustion. Compared with the hesitation and ambition when he came, he was really tired now and didn't know where to go.
"Chanyu, it is definitely no problem to return to the grassland, but after returning we will have to travel far again. This is no longer our world. The rise of China has been unstoppable, and we Xiongnu have completely failed."
Qiu Linjian glanced at the other party. It was not wrong for him to lead his troops south. His mistake was that the Huns were no longer the Xiongnu in their peak period. However, the other party, China, was at its peak. They were no longer their opponents.
"Hey, just leave when you have to. The Huns will come back one day, and China will surely tremble under our horses' hooves again."
Although he has been beaten into a dog by the Chinese cavalry, he believes that the Huns will come back one day.
"Qiu Linjian swears to follow Shanyu to the death. I also believe that the Huns will come back one day."
Qiu Linjian saluted Huyandalan on his horse, and his eyes regained their tenacity. He also believed that the Huns would come back one day.
"Let's go, hurry up and go around the desert and return to the Xiongnu grassland."
Huyandalan nodded and directly ordered the war horses to accelerate and lead the entire army to run eastward.
"Chanyu, we found about 10,000 cavalry thirty miles ahead, heading towards us."
A cavalry scout came from a distance and reported directly to Huyandalan that the enemy cavalry was found in front.
"What, there are enemy cavalry here too?
Stop moving forward."
Upon hearing the news, Huyandalan's confidence that had just risen collapsed instantly. At this moment, he really didn't know what to do.
"Chanyu, what should we do now?"
Qiu Linjian came closer to Huyandalan, his eyes full of confusion. Now he felt that there was no way to escape in the vastness of the world. Even if the grassland was close in front of him, he could not cross the chasm.
"what to do?
Now we have no chance to retreat. The enemy only has more than ten thousand cavalry. If we kill them, we can go home."
Glancing at the similarly confused soldiers around him, Huyandalan knew that he could no longer be decadent. If this continued, they would really be doomed.
"Kill it and go home."
"Kill it and go home."
"Kill it and go home."
"Kill it and go home."
Hearing Huyandalan's words, the eyes of the Hun cavalry beside him also flashed with a look of hope. The word "go home" is so desirable.
"Front Arrow Formation, Charge."
Huyandalan drew out the scimitar from his waist, his eyes were blood red. If he could not kill the enemy on the opposite side, let alone revitalize the Huns, everyone would be ruined on this land.
"Rumble."
The seven thousand Xiongnu cavalry immediately changed their formation, and looked like an arrow from the string when looking down from the sky, rushing towards Yan Xing's direction.
"Reporting to the general, the Huns cavalry have formed their formation and are heading towards us."
As Yan Xing advanced, the scouts in front immediately reported the situation of the Huns.
"I thought they were going to turn around and run away."
Yan Xing was stunned when he heard that the other party was actually coming towards him. He originally thought that the other party had become a frightened bird and would immediately turn around and flee after discovering his army. He did not expect that the other party would be so tough.
"General, charge forward and defeat the Xiongnu in this battle."
Captain Zheng Peng glanced at Yan Xing, his eyes full of excitement. He had been running for so long just for this battle. Now the opportunity has come.
"The entire army is prepared to temporarily retreat twenty miles."
However, Yan Xing shook his head and directly ordered the cavalry to retreat back.
"General?
Why retreat?"
Zheng Peng was immediately dumbfounded. Now that the enemy was coming, he should attack him head-on. Why should he retreat?
"Haha, if you want to kill, you have to hurry up now. You have to give the opponent some hope and give the two wings some time."
Yan Xing shook his head. What he wanted was not just to defeat the enemy, but to annihilate them all. If he attacked now, he would be able to kill the enemy, but if the cavalry on both wings failed to keep up, they would still be given a chance to escape, so
He wants to hold the opponent in his mouth and give the two wings time.
"promise."
The nearly ten thousand troops immediately stopped advancing, turned their horses and began to retreat backwards.
"Chanyu, the opponent's cavalry is retreating, they are retreating."
The scouts came again and reported the news of Yan Xing's retreat to Huyandalan.
"The enemy is afraid, the enemy is afraid, speed up the pursuit and defeat them."
Hearing Yan Xing's retreat, a flash of light flashed in Huyandalan's eyes. The two armies were fighting with equal strength. The first priority was morale. Now that the enemy's retreating morale will inevitably be damaged, it was a good opportunity for him to march straight in and defeat the opponent.
"kill."
The morale of the Xiongnu soldiers soared, and they pursued Yan Xing directly on the yellow sand in the sky.
"Captain, the general is retreating with his troops, and the Huns cavalry are chasing the general."
Yan Xing retreated, and the news of the Huns' cavalry pursuit immediately reached the ears of Du Heng on the side.
"The general wants to lure the enemy deeper. Send me an order to divide the troops into two groups. One group will continue to attack the opponent's right wing, and the other group will go around to the enemy's rear."
